Lost in the Toy Store
A Grouch
YESTERDAY a man with a grouch started out to do some belated
Christmas shopping. He got inside the toy store and began buying
soldiers and railway trains and building blocks and some other things;
and the first thing he knew his grouch was gone ! Nobody knows where
it went. But we know that it is impossible to keep a grouch in that toy
store. It simply can't live in that place, though it is about the only ani
mal that can't.
N.T3. If you have a grouch you would like to get rid of, come here
and lose it.

doll importer who received his importation to late to dispose of it

chance," using the slang way of expressing it, accepted his offer of a
tremendous price sacrifice and the way we bought is the way we offer
them to you at a fraction of their real worth.
