If you're not, I'll stay where I am, for it's a pretty good climb, and I'm not much of a sailor as yet." "Let's stay here and have the circus," said Ham. "We can make a splendid ring in the sand--in fact, we can have three rings if we want to. All we have to do, you know, is to throw up the sand in a circle." Every one agreed that it was an ideal spot, so the boys set to work at once. Mrs. Noah made Marjorie a wonderful dress, covered with gold spangles. "I'm going to ride the big white horse just like a circus rider," cried Marjorie. "And I shall stand up on the saddle and jump through my hoop. Ham can hold it." "Of course I will," he cried, looking up from his work. "And I'll be jolly glad when this ring is finished. I had no idea it would take so long." "Hurrah! Mine's finished," cried Japheth. "And so's mine," shouted Shem. "Well, I think mine's the biggest of all," said Ham. "It must be, or I'd have finished when you fellows did." |
