Mother's Doll Story
The Bean Bag J
K M
Once upon a time (here was n Jolly
little I >oy who luved to play ball. He
was almost as fat as butter, as broad
as he was long. But b<> could throw
a ball quite straight, although he was
only three years old.
ills name was Tommy.
Well, one afternoon Tommy, Just for
fun, got all his new balls together in
a pile. He had a good many, because
everybody who loved Tommy always
gave him a ball.
There was a big brick red, soft one
that he used to keep in bis cradle when
be was a baby. There was a harder
one of gray rubber that was tine to
throw into a tub of water. And there
was a leather football almost as round
as Tommy was. Besides, there were
two baseballs that be used to throw
over the fence, and there was a red,
white and blue ball tbat came from
Paris.
But best of all was his bean bail.
This really was a baby doll stuffed
with beans. So Tommy could use it
as a ball or as a bean bag, Just as he
pleased.
One day It rained hard, and Tommy
left his bean bag doll outdoors in the
wet And what happened? Why, the
beans all swelled up, split open the
bag and before Tommy found them
started to grow right there in the door
yard. Wasn't that funny V
