Now Blacky’s sister had at one time found an accordion that some people had left in the woods, and she kept it hidden in the old hollow oak where she lived. Blacky had told’ his friends of this treasure, so when they had chatted awhile, Teddy Fox begged Miss Blacky to play for them. She willingly consented, and seating herself upon a log, began to play with all her might. It was not long before quite a merry party had gathered on the green, and among them were two bright little hares. They began to dance a jig to the lively music that was being played, and soon others ~ joined them, and soon all were enjoying a good jolly dance. Just before the party broke up and they went: away, the bear proposed that they should sit down and. chat awhile. Then he suggested that they should form a sort of a club and have a meeting every week in the old woods, and as a result many happy hours were spent together.
