announced the arrival of Miss Fancy
they We're 'just Wild to see her. This
they did and fell in love with her on the

When the children learned that Miss
Fancy was to be deprived OF her tenn

with their father to invite her out to
their home The matter was submitted
for arbitration and the final compromise
was placing the elephant in the Peerless

that they were two prime factors in the
