come 10 call On
her and to hear some of her stories.
Witty Witch had been delighted to
see all her guests and she had many
ii story to tell them. She had been
busy going around telling the truth
about herself, for so often the truth
was not told about her.
She wanted to let every one know
how much she loved children and that
she hoped they would love her But
now she was back home and it was a
delightful surprise to have all of the
fairyland people coming to see her at
once.
So she had been telling them stories
as they dearly loved to hear Witty
Witch's stories.
But | haven't told the one about
PANS doll as yet" she said after she
had finished singing the song about
the children.
Pam was one of the children with
blue eyes. Blue eyes has Pam anc
rosy cheeks, too, and she is fat but
not too fat. She has nice chubby legs
and her best party dress is blue.
And when she wears her best part!
dress she also wears a big blue hair
ribbon which looks fetching, indeed
on her fair hair.
well. Pam had been to a tea party
at her grandmother's and GRANDPA
Tiers house and what good time
she had had.
She had had cambric tea and it
really had been most delicious. she
had thought.
I'm fact so pleased hau she been
with it that she had asked for a Sec
ond cup and second cup had been
given to her.
''Then she had had very good sand
wiches and nice piece of cake.
"She had taken her doll to the par
ty and her doll had said mamma
and papa and had also walked, tax
ing hold of PANS hand.
pam was five, but the doll was only
a year old and so Pam had brought
the dolls crib along for in likelihood
the doll might become sleepy.
Sure enough. The doll had become
sleepy anu So ram ndu put ner IN tle
crib at one end of the room.
after the tea party was all over
Pam went home, for by that time 1t
was PANS bedtime and as the after
noon had been quite exciting she real
ly was tired even though she could
have sat up little longer
"She had pretended that she was
the doll and when some of the tea
party guests had pressed her little
chest she had said, Mamma and
Papa when they had pressed her
back.
"And she had even said something
when her right shoulder was pressed
and when her left shoulder was
pressed for she could do more than
the doll could do.
"Well. the party was all over and
every guest had gone. PANS grand
mother and grandfather began to put
away the teacups and saucers so as
to set the room to rights.
'Pam's grandfather said to Pam's
grandmother, I will put the tea table
over in the corner of the room, my
dear 1t is 700 heavy for you to car
ry.' And in truth, it was quite a
heavy tea table. 1t had needed to be
