AS soon as the Jay Bird said that
the puppy had Just bought some ice
cream for the Luckymobile, as I told
you in the last story. Billy Bunny ana
Uncle Lucky hurried down the roao
after him. and BY and by they caught
up to the Luckymobile, for it was goins
very slowly. You see, 1t wasn't useo
to ice cream, and so it began to get
very tired after a little ways. and then
1t stopped altogether. and Just then
Billy Bunny and Uncle Lucky came
up,
What do you mean by stealing my
automobile?' cried Uncle Lucky an
grily, and he grabbed the puppy dog
by one ear and pulled him out Of the
automobile and then he took him across
his knee and gave him good spank
ing. And how that puppy did cry. He
made such an awful noise that in
few minutes all the dogs for miles
around ran up, and IL Billy Bunny had
not taken the ice cream out OF the
automobiles cabaret he never would
have been able to make 1t go.
Then Uncle Lucky dropped the
puppy dog and jumped in and away
they went, and all the dogs started
after them, barking and yelping as
hard as they could But the Lucky
mobile felt so much better that it went
faster and faster and by and by you
could only hear the trees bark, for tho
dogs were left far behind, and OF course
trees don't bite and so the little RAD
bits weren't a bit afraid.

the clouds were sd close that every
once in a while Uncle Lucky's stove
pipe hat was brushed of his head ana
they had to stop and get out for It.
"This will never do said Uncle
Lucky. "for II we go any higher Wen
be brushed off the seats and then what
will happen to the Luckymobile.' So
they stopped the car and got out and
then, all OF a sudden. just like that, the
clouds blew away and the two rabbits
found themselves In the Sky Blue PINK

close beside them.
