Wiggily And with that the bunny
tossed the pain Of water right over the
fox, and then Uncle Wiggily gave a
big hop, and crawled in one end Of a
big open water pipe, and there he hid,
for the fox didn't see him go in, on
account Of the water in his eyes.
But when the fox dried himself OFF
and looked around, Uncle Wiggily
wasn't in sight. The bunny had
craWled all along through the pipes,
one after another until he came to his
bungalow, and into it he popped, and
so he was safe. Hiding in a pipe was
one of his very latest tricks for fooling
a fox.
Then the beavers aud the monkey
put new water pipgE in place Of the
broken ones, the badly fooled fox ran
away, and Uncle Wiggily's sink was
