1t was still raining when Puss Junior
and Tom Thumb awoke. They had spent
a comfortable night at the Hotel Ark
and felt much refreshed After a hearty
breakfast they again looked out of the
window. The rain was still coming down
IN torrents. The water lay inches deep
upon the street. The Hotel Ark was sur
rounded by a shallow lake which, how
ever, was growing deeper every minute
Puss Junior and Tom Thumb stepped
out upon the veranda and looked over the
village square. Through the rain they
could make out the outlines Of the Ark.
And just then voice began to sing:
He built 1t high, he built 1t strong,
de built 1t wide, he built it long,
To hold Jolly, motley throng."
And pretty soon Noah himself came
splashing through the water toward the
