THE "GOOD ENDEAVOUR" LEAGUE
i! .FOR YOUNG READERS ONLY 3 I'Aboard for the Goodwill Cruise
What ho, what, ho., ma hearties. We certainly seem to have all the rain Ave want now. don't Ave? Winter is here alright though for a long time it Avas hard to believe it. Lite on Whale. Island has been A'ery quiet, of late. Bulinsky is still a bit of a nuisance of course and. little Petcrkin insists on snuggling into a box in front of the tire at night time. I find myself getting fonder and fonder of that penguin. He is, not. so roAvdy nor so destructive as Butinskj r and lie. has such charming little Avays about him. He sits up and begs for food, almost asking for it like a child. When he has had a big feed lie stands up in a corner and gets such a dreamy look on his face; that ] can't help laughing at him. His little mate of. course left us: in. the early autumn. He apparently thought that it was too cold or
something here so oil he AA'ent, but Petcrkin stayed in spite of tlie commotion made; by his little friend, and H don't think he will ever leave me. At any-rate I hope not. He' is one of the best pets I ever liad, and Fin sure is the most good tempered See you next Aveek, Peter the Whaler.
