- THE WOULDBEGOODS
- THE JUNGLE
- We said, "We are the Bastables; we've come to meet Daisy and Denny."
- While he was doing this he suddenly said, or rather screamed, "Oh!"
- THE WOULDBEGOODS
- RULES
- 1. Every member is to be as good as possible.
- 4. We are to meet every day, or as often as we like.
- 5. We are to do good to people we don't like as often as we can.
- 8. The name of our Society is--
- BILL'S TOMBSTONE
- He said, "I'm afraid I can't promise that."
- Alice said, "You might; there's a particular reason."
- Dora said, "We must do something for the soldier's widowed mother."
- We all agreed, but added, "What?"
- And Dicky said, "It all comes of trying to do golden deeds."
- Oswald said, "Of course not."
- BILL SIMPKINS
- So we altered it to--
- I am very glad _some_ soldiers' mothers get their boys home again.
- THE TOWER OF MYSTERY
- We all said, "But may we?"
- Oswald said, "Drop what?"
- He said, "That row."
- Oswald said, "Why?"
- Dicky said, "Did you bolt the door?"
- The man said, "I did so, my young cock."
- THE WATER-WORKS
- And Oswald said, "Sha'n't!"
- We said, "What's that?"
- We said, "Couldn't we help?"
- When the speech stopped Alice said, "It was us."
- THE CIRCUS
- Oswald said, kindly, "We're awfully sorry. Are you busy?"
- We said, "No, we wouldn't."
- We all said "Yes, but what?"
- LIST OF ANIMALS REQUISITE FOR THE CIRCUS WE ARE GOING TO HAVE
- 1 Bull for bull-fight.
- 1 Horse for ditto (if possible).
- 1 Goat to do Alpine feats of daring.
- 1 Donkey to play see-saw.
- 1 large black pig--to be the Elephant in the procession.
- PROGRAMME
- When we had explained, we said, "Might we go?"
- BEING BEAVERS; OR, THE YOUNG EXPLORERS (ARCTIC OR OTHERWISE)
- And Oswald said, "Where to?"
- So Alice said, "We can decide as we go. Let's start, anyway."
- THE HIGH-BORN BABE
- I never saw any one so pleased as the distracted horseman.
- HUNTING THE FOX
- And then Dicky said, "Let's go hunting."
- Dora said, "Denny's gone to the dentist."
- THE FOX'S BURIAL ODE
- The gentleman said "Why?"
- White Whiskers said, "That looks bad--eh?"
- So Denny said, "I can't without breaking the secret oath."
- THE SALE OF ANTIQUITIES
- So he said, "What's up?"
- Oswald said, "No kid?"
- Oswald said, "I don't know."
- Alice said, "I should know if I had it in my hand."
- At last she said, "You didn't _wash_ them?"
- Mr. Longchamps shuddered and said "No."
- THE BENEVOLENT BAR
- Oswald said, "Hullo," and the tramp said, "Hullo."
- The biggest then said, "Come on--any more of you? Come on!"
- THE CANTERBURY PILGRIMS
- Then Alice said, "Let's rest a bit, Oswald, it _is_ hot."
- Oswald answered briefly, in wounded accents, "Hazelbridge."
- And H. O. said, "I suppose they worship the Dean now?"
- THE DRAGON'S TEETH; OR ARMY-SEED
- The girls all drew back, and Alice said, "Oswald, I wish you wouldn't."
- Denny said, "But you don't look like skeletons."
- The colonel said, "Fiddle de dee."
- But the Cocked-Hatted Man said, "What was the enemy like?"
- ALBERT'S UNCLE'S GRANDMOTHER; OR, THE LONG-LOST
- THE END
