Little Joe.s the Turtle, was fright
ened, thinking that perhaps the King
Of the Forest might punish him for
playing suchaa naughty trick on the
poor silly monkey. But Tinker Bob
merely told Joe that he shouldn't do
such thing again for 1t might cause
Silky to loose his tail. The King wa
sosfull of laugh that he could scarce
,ly speak. think, however. that Lit
tie Joe understood. Anyway he wad-
died back into the Lake without as
much as saying q word.
Long Neck,Ithe Great Blue Heron,
was proud to think he had caught Mr..
Turtle and brought him to. the King.

King.

King was speaking there was a
splash and UP out of the water came
Mr.. Kingfisher with q fine catch. He
carried III to the limb where he had
been watching. thumped It on q
