Happy Easter Time

It was nearing Easter time, two

the window at the April showers
thinking of Easter eggs, but they
were afraid they would not get any
for they were very high at this
time. But an! They did not be
lievo in Easter rabbits, but while
they We're looking out Of the win
dow, out of the bushes hoped a
rabbit, He looked up and saw the
two children and asked them their
names which he put on a piece OF
paper. They said they were Jack
and Jane BlackmOre Then he ask
ed them if they had ordered their
eggs ye and they said no, that
they were not going to have any
because they were too high. But
the rabbit said his eggs did not
cost anything. The children We're
so astonished that their mouths
stood wide open, but finally Jack
said, Are you the Easter rabbit %
And the rabbit said yes. But Jane
said, I'VE never knew there was an
Easter rabbit, but now you said
you are"
Said the rabbit: GO on with
your order, | have got to hurry"
SO Jack and Jane put in their or
der for twcnty-four eggs, twelve
for each, you know. Then the rab-
bit hoped away and two little hap
ply children went to bed that night
with light hearts to know they We're
going to have some Easter eggs
