UNCLE WIGGILY'S WINTER
WOOD.

Uncle Wiggily, the bunny rabbit
gentleman, was hopping along
through Woodland, near the
Orange Ice Mountains one day,
when he happened to pass the
house where Grandfather Goosey
Gander lived. Out in front was a
large pile of corn cobs, and Grand
pa Goosey, with the help of Uncle
Butter the goat gentleman, was
carrying the corn cobs in his cellar.
We'll, what are you doing|'
asked Uncle Wiggily, as he stopped
and leaned on his red, White and
blue striped rheumatism crutch.
Are you going to have a lot of
play corn cob houses for the ami
NAL boys and girls, Grandpa Goo
sey?" =,
mo, indeed" answered the old
gentleman goose, who was, really
a gander. II am getting in my
winter supply of cobs to burn in
the stove when the cold days come.
Corn cobs are the same as coal to
me. Have you put in your winter
wood yet Uncle Wiggily?"
why, no, l haven't, said the
rabbit gentleman. Il s'pose I'd
better see about it. too. The nights
are becoming quite frosty now, and
even with our fur coats Nurse Jane
and I will not be able to keep warm
without wood. I'll see if can get
some cobs.'
So Uncle Wiggily hoped here,
there and everywhere, looking for
a lot of dried corn cobs to put in
his cellar for the winter. But not
a corn cob could he find. They
had all been bought by the other
animals of the woods and fields.

Nurse Jane, when the bunny told
his muskrat lady houseieeper about
It. Il hope We shall not freeze
this winter"
Il hope not, myself" said the
bunny, and when he thought OF
such thing happening, why. his
pink nose twinkled as though he
were shivering.
However, Uncle Wiggily did not
give up so easily. He started off
once more, making up his mind
that somewhere he would get coal
or corn cobs or something to burn
in the winter. over the fields and
through the forest he hoped, and,
all of sudden, he heard u noise
that sounded like:
"Hawl Haw! Haw"
Some one must be laughing"
thought Uncle Wiggily. II Won
der if they are laughing at me be-
cause forgot to put my winter
wood in early enough? l will not
be so foolish again"
Uncle Wiggily looked through
the trees and on the ground, not
far off. he saw lot of large, black
birds. They were going: r
"Haw! Haw! Haw!" And some
times the sound appeared to be;
cav! Cav! Caw!"
"Oh, they are crows, and they
are not laughing. They were cav
ing, and something seems to be the
matter" thought Uncle Wiggily.
Uncle Wiggily hoped a little
nearer to the flock of black crows
on the ground, and then one of the
large birds, named Mr.. Cav Cav,
whom the bunny knew, piped, up
and hoarsely said:
Here is Uncle Wiggily. He can
nelp u.s."
whats the natter" asked the
bunny gentleman. Are you hav-
ing trouble about about getting in
winter wood? No. that can
not be for you crows will soon be
lying down South where there is

Mr.. Cav Caw?"

vent the removal of the flesh with

"Of course not" said Uncle Wig

So, forgetting all about seeing
where he could get some corn cobs
or wood for his winter fires, Unclt
Wiggily took his red white anC

began to untangle the string from

croaked all the other black birds
which was their way of thanking
Uncle Wiggily for what he had
done.
Il hope you have nice winter
down South" said the bunny rab-
bit as the crows flew over his head.
Then the bunny set off again,
hmping on his red, white and blue
crutch, for the day was rather cold
and his rheumatism was beginning
to hurt.
II hope I may soon find some
wood to put in for winter thought
Uncle Wiggily. But everywhere he
went the answer was the same. No
wood or corn cobs could be had.
Everybody had ordered their sup
ply months before.
Maybe / can give you some

key doodle gentleman who sold
firewood. .-
Then it may be too late. sadly
said Uncle Wiggily. I'll so see if

"Coal-wood. Bless your pink
nose! never put any coal or wood
in my ice cave" laughed the Polar
bear gentleman when Uncle Wiggi-
~ asked him. Il sleep on bed of
snowballs, / do"
Sadly and sorrowfully Uncle
Wiggily turned back to his hollow
stump bungalow. Hardly had he
reached it than Nurse Jane came
running out waving her apron.

Wiggily," she said. "You got the
