"Well," exclaimed Grumpy to
Freckles v/ho came barking up to
"Fancy seeing you again! I
you were more or less angry at me."
"^What do you say that we let by

yelped Freckles licking at a spli rfe-
er on Grumpy's wooden leg. "^fou
see, the main reason I came around
is to learn a trifle more about
*deah ole Kontreat's history'. You

day after returning from the annual
trip to Asheville? Well, it's jus't
like I've often been tolled, the
old order cho.ngeth giving place to
the new disorder," A,W. and J.C.
