"I thought bells stopped trolley cars," said Sue.
"They do, but they stop trains too, 'specially as mine is an electric train." "All right. Ding!" called Sue sharply. Bunny turned the switch the other way to shut off the current, and the train stopped. Sue took off the Teddy bear and said "Thank you" to Conductor Bunny Brown. Then the little boy played with his toy train by himself, while Sue pretended her Teddy bear was visiting in Sue's Aunt Lu's city home and kept winking its electric-light eyes at Wopsie, a little colored girl Bunny and Sue had known in New York, where Aunt Lu lived. "Supper!" suddenly called Mother Brown, and the two hungry children hurried into the dining tent where Mr. Brown and Uncle Tad were waiting for them. "Well, how did your electric train go?" asked Bunny's father. "Fine! It's the best ever." "And my Teddy is just lovely," said Sue. "Well, be careful of your toys," said Mr. Brown. "Better bring in the tracks and the engine and cars right after supper." "I will," Bunny promised, "after I've played with them a bit." |
