CHAPTER v
JThe Fat Lady Rolls
TaE circus fat Lady sat on the
/ Wooden Elephant md looked down
tr3r, tho high hills upon a valley
through which ran a broad river. The
fat lady was hot, melting and sore from
Wooden Elephant. And she had lost
,nnch fat, which should have made her
clad, for that ~ why she had gone ele-
vhart riding. ....
But right now the fat lady was too
uncomfortable to be glad.
ooh. how shall I ever get back down
these hills2' she gasped. I'm so
Samped and joggled I cannot ride this
elephant any more
lock and Janet gazed down the long
sandy slope which led to the river far
below. ....
sst rid OF more fat by running, rolling
and swimming" said Janet. But the
fat lady only groaned. She felt that
she couldn't run or roll.
"You will have to go down the hill
and send truck up here for me-
she sighed.
The handsome young giant was look
ing off over the valley. Somewhere
n this valley ! may find the lost prin.
cess of my dreams,' ne sighed II
tnow she is charming, md I am sure
che is q heroine. wish I could find
The fat lady suddenly gave n scream
"Look at that toddling baby on the
river bank" she cried. "Look, he is
falling in He will be drowned !"
Jack, Janet and the giant looked
where she pointed, and sure enough,
far below they saw a baby tumbling
into the broad, deep river. And no one
was near to save him.
The fat lady was the first to act.
She forgot in an instant her own dis
tress and fears. She thought only Of
Elephant wha:k.
Run! Run! Save that baby" she
cried.
The whack so startled Wooden Ele.
phant that he plunged down the steep
sand bank toward the river.
For a short distance he plowed along
like q runaway railroad engine. Then
his legs sank deep into the soft sand,
and he became stuck.
No sooner had he stopped plunging
and sliding than fho fat lady slipped
from his back, landing in the sand.
She picked herself up and began run
ming. But the fat lady had not run
in years. She lost her breath In less
than minute.
When the fat lady saw sho couldn't
rum she did q queer but most sensi-
bic thing-she fell over and began to
roll down the hill. And as she was
very round. she rolled fast-much faster
than she had run.
She rolled, rolled, rolled until she
came to the bank Of the river, and she !
relied right on into the stream, ker
splash
The baby was just going under for
tie third time. The fat lady reached |
out and grabbed him. She struggled ITO
the shore and threw the baby upon the |
bank, where he lay safe and sound.
But when the fat lady tried to climb
the bank she couldn't do it. She was
too weak and exhausted She fell back
into the water and floated down stream.
Jack, Janet and the giant had gazcd
on this, too much startled to move.
Now the giant gave a shout :
The fat lady has saved the baby"
he cried. 'She is heroine. We mist
not let her drown"
And the giant started down the Hill
to save her. his long legs taking huge
strides.

bees, bees and more bees. They flew
all over the kitchen and all over Mrs.
