Dick ride the White Rocking Horse.

"What's next, Herbert?" asked Madeline.

"Hush, you mustn't talk in the show," cautioned her brother. "The
ringmaster is the only one who can talk, and I'm him. The next part of
the show is the dance of the Sawdust Doll."

This was Dorothy's chance, and she came out with her toy. And then and
there the Sawdust Doll did a funny little dance while Mirabell played on
a mouth organ. Of course Dorothy had to hold the Doll and dance around
with her, but it was as good as if the Doll had done it herself, and the
boys and girls clapped their hands.

"Isn't this a wonderful show?" whispered the Sawdust Doll to the Monkey,
when she had a chance, as the children crowded down to one end of the
tent to get some cookies Herbert's mother brought out to them.

"Yes, you did your part very well," whispered back the Monkey. "Do you
think I shall get a chance to do any of my tricks?"

"Oh, yes," answered the Doll. "I'm sure you're going to be the best part
of the show."

When the cookies were eaten, Herbert again took the part of ringmaster.

"The next thing in the show will be a fight with the Tin Soldiers," said
Herbert. "Mr. Dick will take half of them and Mr. Arnold will take the
other half, and there will be a battle right here in the tent."
