said Mrs. Brown. "I've got another good riddle for you, youngsters," called Captain Ross, as he made his way along the deck. "What kind of tree would scare a cat?" "There wouldn't any tree scare a cat," declared Bunny. "I've seen a cat climb up a tree lots of times. Cats aren't scared of trees!" "Well, wouldn't a dogwood tree scare a cat?" chuckled the sailor. "Ha! Ha! I'm sure it would. I don't believe you could get a cat to climb a _dog_wood tree!" he went on. "That _is_ a funny riddle!" declared Bunny. "I'm going to tell it to Charlie Star when we come back from Christmas Tree Cove." "We'd better get there first," went on Captain Ross, still chuckling at his riddle. "Cast off, Bunker Blue!" Bunker loosed the ropes that held the _Fairy_ to the wharf, and the boat slowly drifted away. "Oh, we've really started!" cried Sue, as she saw the open water between the rail and the string-piece of the wharf. "We'll go faster than this!" exclaimed Bunny. "Wait till Bunker Blue starts the motor.
