"And when they had found they were

'FWeI. the Gnomes won the first bat
tie, and the Elves sat down in their
broken Fort and painted for breath
for they had been fighting very hard
even though they had lost. They were
rather glad that they had lost, for they
wanted TO watch some of the battles.

Brownies, and they won again.

hadn't been able to win for they got
out Of breath almost before the battle
commenced and sometimes they had
forgotten and turned somersaults over
the side of their Fort-and SO had
lost many Balls that way.
'GThe Gnomes did win the whole

them some new magic sleds."
