Ilokey pokny!" cried a jolly voice out in front of Uncle Wiggily's hollow stump bun galow one nay. noKey poKeyi "My goodness, what a funny name for a llttlo girl or boy" squeaked Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wyzzy. "I hope it isn't any of your children," she went on to Mr. Long-ears. For the rabbit gentleman had forty 'leven little bunnies, to say nothing of Baby 'Bunty, who was forty twelve, and there being so many the muskrat lady "could not always remember all of their na es.

"Hokey pokey is no child of mine!" said Uncle Wiggily. "It must be the name of some new kind of breakfast food being advertised. "I'll hop out and take a i But when the rabbit gentleman reached the front porch ho saw only a kind old, wrinkled monkey "Hokey pokey Hokey pokey'. gentleman, "walking along and pushing in front of himself a littfe red cart. It was the monkey winy was crying: "Hokey pokey! Hokey "What is the asked Uncle Wiggily politely.

"Why, nothing is the matter, thank you," chattered the monkey. "I am Just selling hokey pokey, that's all. Do you want one?" "What In the world Is a hokey pokey?" asked the rabbit. "Ho!" cried the monkey, "you must have forgotten, when you were a little rabbit boy. Look here!" With that he opened a tin can in his red cart and took out something' wrapped in cold waxed paper.

And when the paper was taken off l-ncle Wiggily saw a little sandwich made of sweetened honey cake with a slice of pink ice-cream between them. "That is a hokey explained the monkey, holding the ice cream sandwich out to Mr. Longears. "'Eat it!" "Is that all I do," the rabbit gentleman asked as he swallowed the last of the cold, sweet, sandwich. "Just eat it? Is that all?" "Oh, no, you must pay me for the hokey pokey If you please," the monkey answered.

"That is no more than fair, agreed Uncle Wiggily. So he gave the monkey gentleman five cents and the monkey, having both front paws on the handle of his cart, made change very cleverly with his tall giving Uncle Wiggily back three cents. "Hokey pokeys are two cents each," chattered the monkey. "They would be cheap at twice the price," chuckled Mr. Longears.

"I'll take another if you please," which he did, handing the monkey two pennies. The hokey pokey monk dropped the pennies from the end of his tall into hhj cash box, and went on down the path, calling: "Hokey pokey! Hokey pokey! Who wants a hokey pokey?" And you may be sure many of the animal boys and girls did, for it was a hot day and the ice cream sandwiches were cool. So that was the beginning of the hokey pokey monk coming to Woodland. But-it was not the end of him for he planned to stay all summer, It was a delight to see him hand out hokey pokeys with his paws and make change with his tail. When Nurse Jane said Uncle Wiggily was July 21, 1907.

It Isn't that 1 care so much for the hokey pokeys." And Mr. Twisty-tail, the pig, and Undo Butter, the goat, said tlie same thing when tthey bought the ice cream sand-Wlches several times a day.

"Well, one afternoon, about a week after the hokey pokey monk had come, to Woodland, Uncle Wiggily was buying banana flavored one when, all of a sudden, tiie Ilob Cat swooped around the corner and tried to catch the rabbit. Dut.iust in time Uncle AViggily dodged around the hokey pokey cart and got away.

"I'll make things right for you, since it was by your cart I saved myself from the Bob Cat!" said the rabbit. So he took the monkey gentleman to the cave of Mr. Whitewash, the polar bear, and bought a big cake of ice. And when this was chopped it kept the hokey pokeys fresh. So everything turned out all right, and the monkey' sold his ice cream hokey pokeys all summer.
