OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
BUDDY HELPS sAMMIE LITTLE

BUDDY HELPS SAMMlE LITTLE
TAIL.
When Johnnie and Billie Bushytail
went home. after having paid visit
to Buddy Pigg that time when they
built the sand house that fell in on
them, they told Sammie and Susie Lit
tletail, the two rabbits, of what nice
time they had had. 4
"Oh, I am going over to see Buddy
some day, and go in bathing" declar,
ed Sammie.
"You had better be careful about
bathing in salt water" said Susie, his
sister, ut might take all the color out
Of your eyes, or out OF your fur, or
your fur might even fall out"
''Oh, l guess not" answered Sammie.
II have heard that salt water keeps
hair from falling out. Anyway, If
there's any danger Of such thing.
Percival, the old circus dog, doesn't
need to hold the bag of salt in the
water when we go in bathing
That's so," agreed Susie and just
then along came Uncle Wiggily Long
ears the old gentleman rabbit and he
was eating some peppermint favored
cabbage and he gave Sammie and
Susie some.
Well, 1t wasn't very many days after
this before Sammie asked his mamma
if he couldn't go over and play with
Buddy Pigg and, as Sammie had been
a very good rabbit boy lately, his moth
er allowed him to 60. -.
II am so glad you came, Sammie,"
said Buddy, what shall We do, go in
bathing and for fear the salt water
would make the red color fade out OF
Sammie's eyes. Percival didn't hold the
bag Of salt in the pond when he made
the waves. Sammie and Buddy had a
good time splashing around, and then
they built sand house But they took
care to make it strong enough so that
it would not cave in. They played to-
gether for g. long time and then Bud.
dy asked: What shall We do next?'
II know replied Sammie, as he
looked at the pond of water which was
sparkling in the sun, lets play sol
der, and we'll make plank bridge
across the pond and run over 1t and
have lots of fun"
"All right" agreed Buddy" come on
and help me lift the plank" So they
placed long board across one end OF
the pond, where it was quite deep, and
began to play soldier, while Percival
went to sleep in the shade.
Buddy got a tin can, and tied 1t
around his neck with a string. That
was for the drum. and when he beat
upon the tin can with two sticks, be-
lieve me, it did sound just like drum
In the army, when the soldiers beat 1t
softly.
Then Sammie got long stick. pre-.
tending it was gun, and the. two OF
them marched around and around.
and sideways, and up and down, and
through the middle, and across the
plank and back again, several times
Then. Sammie would fire the gun, yell
ing, "Boom-boom!" as loudly as ne
could and shooting maybe dozen bad
Indians or pirates or robbers, or maybe
more, for all know, and Buddy would
beat on the drum louder than ever
and he would cry:
Charge! Charge on the enemy!
Hurrah! The victory is ours!' and ne
would wave flag he had made out OF
