"What ho, what ho, ma hearties. Andj haw do you like your School lessons after a couple of weeks work. I myself, have been very busy fixing lip my nets which were unfortunately damaged by that brute of a goat of mine—--Butinsky. He was apparent!} 7" lying under the frame on which Ittliey were drying, drowsing in the sun.. Well, Peterkin the Penguin came along and playfully dug him in the tummy or something with his flipper. At any rate, up jumped Butinsky, to .such a height that he became: entangled in the nets. His;' horns-made a great hole and his fore-feet simply ripped through the rope line and cork floaifs. Peterkin set up such a squorking and squeeling that I came rushing down to see what, was the matter. It. took me twenty solid minutes to disentangle our bearded friend; and even when I did so he didn't seem grateful—just butted me over playfully and ran off down the hill. Now II must geib on with the page. Cheerio till next. week. Your old friend Peter the Whaler.
