only get one, I'm sure.
Well, after he hoped along little
ways, he began to sing song, and
this is the way it went:
Three little Dummies a~sliding went
On winters day;
The ice was thin, aand two fell in,
And the other ran away"
Cav. cav" said an old crow from
tree top. That's a very fine song,
little rabbit"
Well, IL You think it's such a fine
song, throw me down an ice cream
pine cone" said Billy Bunny. But
the selfish old crow said he wanted
them for himself, and he threw down
a SNOWFALL instead, which hit the
little rabbit on the tip of his tall
So the little rabbit hoped away;
he wasn't going to stay there and
have gnoWballS thrown at him. No,

Pond.

winter days." said the little mink.
Everybody wants to wear furs in
the winter time. you know, and il
that dreadful Miller's Boy sees me,
he'll set trap and then he'll sell my

They set traps for me, too" said
the little rabbit. And Daddy Fox

his knapsack and took out a lovely

Mink, and asked him to come and see
him at the Old Brier Patch.
+I'lI get Uncle Lucky to take us
for a ride in his Luckymobile," and
this pleased the little mink almost to
