But just before they were to enter the park Bouncer had his innings. A rabbit, startled, sprang from under the roadside bushes and ran down the street toward the open country. Bouncer’s tail went up. He dashed out of line, overturned the Polar Bear’s cage, and was off after his quarry, barking wildly, with the fast disrupting cage dangling at his heels.

“Put some sunshine into your voices children,” admonished Nell. “Dad an’ Mosey don’t look orful happy,” she laughed. “Smile at me, Mosey.” He swung his book-strap in greeting to his mother while rolling more slowly up the rose-bordered path to the veranda. He thought his mother’s face looked tired; but the smile there welcomed him warmly, and he forgot the tired look with her first words. Job, his ardor undampened by the strangeness of this reception, made haste to follow..
