Boxer remembered. He scrambled to
his feet. This was the strange cave
in which they had found those de-
lfctouo sweets. but where was the
opening by which they had entered?
Boxer hastily began to run around
looking for that opening. There was
no opening. They were trapped.
Terror took possession Of those two
little Bears. They couldn't under
stand what had happened and they
became quite crazy with fright. They
rushed back and forth, knocking
things right and left They trampled
the spilled sugar on the floor. They
knocked down tho smoke pipe from
the evaporation and SCOT flew all over
everything. They upset a pail Of
sirup and tracked this all over every
thing, and all the time they whim-
pered and cried as only two fright
ened little Bears can.
Outside the Merry Little Breezes
had danced about in glee when that
door slammed. But when they heard
those two little Bears whimpering
and crying inside they were sorry
they had shut the door. You see, it
had been easy enough to shut il, but

The Mean Trick of a Merry
Little Breeze.

/ Joke that gives another fright
Can ne'er lie funny nor be right.


Did you ever at one time have all
the candy you wanted? Then you
know just how Boxer and Woof Woof,
the two little Bears in Farmer
Browns sugar house, felt. They had
eaten and eaten and eaten and eaten
maple sugar until their little stom-
achs were swelled out like little bal
looms. and they simply couldn't hold
another bit. And still there was
sugar there. Those two little Bears
felt as if they must be dreaming.
However, they knew they were not
and sore tongue burned by hot
sirup.
When they could eat no more they
ourled up side by side on Farmer
Browns Boys blanket. A full stom-
ach makes one sleepy. and both want
ed nap. In no time at all they
were fast asleep.
Now those little Bears had not been

asleep long when the Merry Little
Breezes came dancing through the
Green Forrst. One OF them danced
in through the open door Of the
sugar house and discovered the two
little Bears fast asleep. Out danced
the Merry Little Breeze again and
called all the other Merry Little
Breezes. Lets play joke on those
two little Bears" said the first Merry
Little Breeze. IF we all push to-
gether we can close this door"
The Merry Little Breezes chuckled
gleefully, and then all got behind the
open door and, pushing with all their
might. slammed it shut with a bang.
The latch fell into place and those
two little Bears were trapped in
Farmer Browns sugar house.
Now Bears, like all the other peo-
pie of the Green Forest. are light
sleepers. The bang of that slamming
door awoke Boxer and Woof Woof.
Their eyes flew open and their hearts
seemed to jump right up in their
mouths.
