The whale that wrecked the Tinies' house remained as quiet as a mouse. It seemed to know that it had done trick that was all wrong.
 Then to the sea man Goldy went. "Perhaps it was an accident" said she. "That whale is very big and also very strong.
 .He bumped our new house. That is so, but, really. how are we to know that he did it on purpose? :? I'll just bet he's sorry, now"
 Then Duncy said. Tt would suit me, if you would take him cross your knee. Why, I'll bet you can't do it. If you can, just show us howl"
 This made the Tinies laugh in glee. The sea man said Imagine me with anything as big as that big whale across my lap.
 I'm sure that he would wiggle loose and get away, so what's the use? Why he could send me spin ming, if he gave his tail one flap.
 However, punishment's in store. Ehe whale will know what 1t is for.

 "Oh, we'd slip right off of his back, and land down on the ground, kersmack," said Dotty. He's the fattest looking whale I ever saw"
 "Oh, that is not where you will ride" the sea man very promptly cried. "All of the Tinymites can sit right in his lower jaw"
 "Oh, my, what fun," said Dotty. Tt will be a funny place to sit. but I will, if the others will" The whole bunch then agreed.
 The crawling it gave them a thrill and the old sea man said, "Sit still and hang on very tightly, cause the whale will swim with speed"
