Jennie.
But where are you going to get
the pie?" asked Baby Bunty
I'll ask Nurse Jane to give us

little orphan rabbit, "supposing

all eaten and there isn't any"

Jingle
"What?" cried Baby Bunty. You

Certainly" answered Jingle calm

"Of course" said Jingle.
We'll see," thought Baby Bunty.
For once she had seen Jingle try to
make cake and, well, the less said
about it the better.
But when Jingle led her friends
into Uncle WiggiIy's bungalow and
out into the kitchen, Jingle cried
out:

on the floor and the whites and
yellows made the kitchen look as
if the sun was setting.

sold Jingle, laughing This time
Bunty did not drop them, and the
eggs were beaten in a bowl Then
Jingle mixed with them some flour
and lard and chopped up carrots
and few leaves. Then she made
some crust out of flour and milk,
put it on a pan, put on top Of the
crust and mixed up eggs and other
things and, when she had pressed
more crust on top of that she said:
Now the pie is ready to bake" "
She put it in the oven and said:
Now well play games until the pie
is baked" Pretty soon the pie began
to smell, "It's done, said Jingle, She
took it on back porch TO cool. Well
play more games" she went on,

But when the games were played
and Jingle went to the porch to
take in the pie, 1T WAS Mt

paw marks in the snow about the
back steps. Some Of the Bad
