I leave the elephant out of this story I promise that I'll give each one of you an ice cream cone with a raisin in it. All you'll have to do--in case I forget to tell about the elephant and how he helped Flop--all you have to do, I say, is to come up to my house and say "Magoozilum!" at me, just like that, and turn two somersaults on the parlor rug, and the ice cream cone is yours for the asking. But now let's get right at the story. You see it happened this way. Once upon a time, when Curly and his brother Flop were out in the yard of the piggy-house, playing "ring around the apple tree," their mother called to them: "Oh, boys! come in here!" she said, and when they got to the kitchen where she was working, she asked them: "Do you know what I'm making?" "Pies," said Curly. "Pudding," suggested Flop, as he tried to make his slimpsy ear stand up straight, but he couldn't. "Neither one," said their mother. "But if one of you will go to the store for me I'll make a Johnny cake for supper. DREADFUL TIME WITH THE BAD EGG DOG WELL NOW IF I LEAVE THE ELEPHANT OUT OF THIS STORY I PROMISE THAT I'LL GIVE EACH ONE OF YOU AN ICE CREAM CONE WITH A RAISIN IN IT ALL YOU'LL HAVE TO DO IN CASE I FORGET TO TELL ABOUT THE ELEPHANT AND HOW HE HELPED FLOP ALL YOU HAVE TO DO I SAY IS TO COME UP TO MY HOUSE AND SAY MAGOOZOLEM AT ME JUST LIKE THAT AND TURN TWO SOMERSAULTS ON THE PARLOR RUG AND THE ICE CREAM CONE IS YOURS FOR THE ASKING BUT NOW LET'S GET RIGHT AT THE STORY YOU SEE IT HAPPENED THIS WAY ONCE UPON A TIME WHEN CURLY AND HIS BROTHER FLOP WERE OUT IN THE YARD OF THE PIGGY HOUSE PLAYING RING AROUND THE APPLE TREE THEIR MOTHER CALLED TO THEM OH BOYS COME IN HERE SHE SAID AND WHEN THEY GOT TO THE KITCHEN WHERE SHE WAS WORKING SHE ASKED THEM DO YOU KNOW WHAT I'M MAKING PIES SAID CURLY PUDDING SUGGESTED FLOP AS HE TRIED TO MAKE HIS SLIMPSY EAR STAND UP STRAIGHT BUT HE COULDN'T NEITHER ONE SAID THEIR MOTHER BUT IF ONE OF YOU WILL GO TO THE STORE FOR ME I'LL MAKE A JOHNNY CAKE FOR SUPPER
