"Oh, my!" cried this girl, "one of the wooden animals has come to life." She screamed and would have fallen from the lion, Sue thought, but for the fact that a young man was standing beside her. He had come around to collect her ticket and when he heard her scream and saw her sway back and forth he grasped her. OH MY CRIED THIS GIRL ONE OF THE WOODEN ANIMALS HAS COME TO LIFE SHE SCREAMED AND WOULD HAVE FALLEN FROM THE LION SUE SOUGHT BUT FOR THE FACT THAT A YOUNG MAN WAS STANDING BESIDE HER HE HAD COME AROUND TO COLLECT HER TICKET AND WHEN HE HEARD HER SCREAM AND SAW HER SWAY BACK AND FORTH HE GRASPED HER
 platform that the wooden animals, birds, and fishes were built, and where, also, were the broad wooden seats for older folk, who did not like to get on the back of a lion or a camel and be twirled around. The platform was broad, for boys and girls had to step up on it to make their way to whatever animal they wanted to sit on, and the men who collected the tickets also had to walk around on this wooden platform while the machine was in motion. And it was in motion when the live goat jumped on it. There was plenty of room for "Billy" on the merry-go-round, though why he jumped up on it I cannot say. You can hardly ever tell why a goat does things, anyhow. [Illustration: THE GOAT LEAPED UPON THE MOVING MERRY-GO-ROUND. _Bunny Brown and His Sister Sue at Christmas Tree Cove._ _Page 104_] Right up on the moving merry-go-round leaped the goat, with Bunny clinging to the long hair of his back. The goat slid along until he came up beside a lion, on whose back a frowsy young person was riding.  EVEN IF THEY KNOWN WHAT TO DO SOMETHING VERY QUEER HAPPENED TO GO ON WHOSE BACK BUDDY WAS RIDING JUMPED UP ON THE BIG CIRCULAR PLATFORM ON THE MERRY GROUND IT WAS ON THIS PLATFORM THAT THE WOODEN ANIMALS BIRDS AND FISHES WERE BUILT AND WHERE ALSO WERE THE BROAD WOODEN SEAT FOR OLDER FOLK WHO DID NOT LIKE TO GET ON THE BACK OF A LION OR A CAMEL AND BE TROILED AROUND THE PLATFORM WAS BROAD FOR BOYS AND GIRLS HAD TO STEP ON IT TO MAKE THEIR WAY TO WHATEVER ANIMAL THEY WANT TO SIT ON AND THE MEN COLLECTED THE TICKETS ALL SO TO WALK AROUND ON THIS WOODEN PLATFORM WHILE THE MACHINE WAS IN MOTION AND IT WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE LIVE GOAT JUMPED ON IT THERE WAS PLENTY OF ROOM FOR BILLIE ON THE MERRY GO ROUND THOUGH WHY HE JUMPED UP ON IT I CANNOT SAY YOU CAN TARDILY TELL WHY A GOAT DOES THINGS ANYHOW RIGHT UP ON THE MOVING MERRY GROUND LEAPT THE GOAT WITH BUNNY CLINGING TO THE LONG HAIR OF HIS BACK THE GOAT SLID ALONG UNTIL HE CAME UP BESIDE A LION ON WHOSE BACK A FROWSY YOUNG PERSON WAS RIDING
