GARIS Author of the Famous UNCLE WICGILY BEDTIME STORIES Pictured by LANG CAMPBELL 1. "My, what a queer noise!" cried Nurse Jane in the hollow stump bungalow one day. And when she went to the door, there she saw Uncle Wiggily in his auto. "Hurray! Hurray!" cried the rabbit. "I towed home a fine pumpkin, Nurse Jane." The muskrat lady wanted to know what for. "I'm going to have a pumpkin party," answered jolly Mr. Longears. "Will you please make me some pumpkin pies?" 2. Nurse Jane was proud of her pumpkin pies, and said she would make some for Uncle Wiggily. So the bunny invited some of the animal boys and girls to come to the pumpkin party. "They will help you make the pies, Janie," he said. But when the children'swarmed into the kitchen, poking into the sugar bowl and upsetting the salt, Nurse Jane didn't know what to do. See what happened to Kittle Kat. 3. When Kittie Kat had been pulled from the water pail, Nurse Jane said she must have less excitement if they wanted pies for the pumpkin party-. So the bunny told the children to-be quiet, please, and Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy finished the pies. "Now I'll put them in the oven," she said. Jackie Bow Wow saw a bowl of batter on the table. "What's this for?" he barked. Well, some of jt"went in his eyes. •- 4, !'This is terrible!" cried Nurse Jane. "Well, it might be worse,*' laughed the bunny, and he helped clean up the egg batter from the floor. At last the pies were ready for the oven, and the rabbit was glad, for he felt hungry. But, all of a sudden, some one cried: "Look at Floppy Twistyiail!" The little pig was making the egg beater go as fast as a merry-go-'round. "I'm having fun!" squealed Floppy. 5. :'Now that the pies are in the oven, and I', will soon be time for the party," said Uncle Wiggily, "I will lie'down and take a nap. '•'If the pies burn I'll smell them, Nurse Jane. You r ay go to the movies.'-' When Nurse Jane had gone, and the bunny v. is asleep, Peetie Bow Wow found some seeds from the pumpkin. "Lc t's make believe these are bullets and fight!" he barked. So he and Billie Wagtail did. 6. While Uncfe Wiggily was getting ready for his pumpkin party with the animal children, off in the woods the Bushy Bear in his den was speaking to his little bears. "I'm going to look for something for you to eat," he growled. "Oh, Daddy Bear! Bring us some ears to nibble!" cried one little Bear. "I'll bring you Uncle Wiggily's ears!" said the Daddy Bear. "I'll go down to his bungalow ancf catch him I" 7. Not knowing anything of what the Bear was going to do, Uncle Wiggily looked in the oven and saw that the pies were done. "We'll now eat then.!" said Mr. Longears. Nurse Jane came back from the movies.in time to help to serve. "Now eat slowly and be polite," she 1 said. But Sammie Littletail threw a piece of pie at Floppy the pig and cried: "I saw 'em do that in the movies, once! It was great!" 8. "Guffy! Guffy!" grunted Floppy, as he felt the soft pie stuff running into his ears. "I'll fix you for that, Sammie Littletail!" Floppy looked so funny Uncle Wiggily wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare. The pig boy picked up a piece of the soft pie, and was just going to throw it at the dog boy when, all of a sudden, into the bungalow burst the Bear. "1 must have ears for my little ones!" howled the Bear. 9. "Oh, the Bear! The Bear!" screamed Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy, falling in a faint, but Uncle Wiggily caught her. "I know what to do,"fellows!" barked Jackie Bow Wow. "We must throw pie at the Bear. Nurse Jane will make us some more! Come on, now! Give the Bear a lot of pie!" And they threw pieces of the soft, squashy pumpkin pie at the bad chap. "Oh, my eye! My eye!" he howled, as he ran off.
