SO Peggy and Billy gathered a pile of

dry wood from the inside OF a hollow

in his pocket. but he knew how to light
fire In boy scout fashion. and using
that one match very carefully he soon
had tho pile Of wood in blaze.
The birds and animals were SO busy
with their stomach aches that they were
not able to pay any attention TO what
