1 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: Hello friends, and welcome to sleep Tight Stories. We are 2 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: going to continue with the next part of our story 3 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: about the White Rocking Horse. The rocking horse has been 4 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 1: taken from the toy store and is now being given 5 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: as a gift to the young boy named Dave. When 6 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: the rocking horse arrives, he spends some time in the 7 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 1: attic and makes friends with a jumping jack. It is 8 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: finally time for Dave to get his present, so the 9 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: rocking Horse is taken downstairs, and there he meets an 10 00:00:51,200 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: old friend, the sawdust Doll. The White Rocking Horse. Part four. 11 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: The white rocking Horse wanted to gallop across the room 12 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: and back because he felt so happy at seeing the 13 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: sawdust doll again. As for the sawdust Doll, she wanted 14 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: to stand up and clap her hands as the calico 15 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: clown used to clap his cymbals together. But neither of 16 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: the toys dared do anything because in the same room 17 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: with them were the father and mother of Dave and Dorothy, 18 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: and the toys, as I told you, never moved or 19 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: spoke when anyone was near them. The old jumping jack 20 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: looks good, said the lady as she smoothed out the 21 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: dress of the sawdust doll. Yes, I'm glad we brought 22 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: him down out of the attic, poor fellow, replied the man, 23 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: as he rocked the horse slowly too and fro to 24 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: make sure he was in a good place. I wonder 25 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: if these toys ever know or care what joy they 26 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 1: give to the children, he asked. Oh, I think they 27 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: do the Dorothy's mother do you know? She went on 28 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: with a little laugh. Sometimes I think the toys are 29 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: really alive and can talk among themselves and do things. 30 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: What nonsense, laughed the man. Do you think this rocking 31 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: horse can come to life? And he petted our toy friend. 32 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: Well maybe not exactly come to life, answered his wife. 33 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 1: But I am sure they must have good times when 34 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: we aren't looking see that sawdust all why, I really 35 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: think she is looking at the rocking horse as if 36 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 1: she knew him, and you know they did come from 37 00:02:55,840 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: the same store. Well, I think everything is ready now, 38 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: said the man. Let us go out and leave the 39 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: toys to themselves. Perhaps they will have a really good 40 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: time as you think. I am sure they will, the 41 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: lady said, laughing softly. Then the door was shut, And 42 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: of course you can guess what happened when no human 43 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: eyes were there to watch the rocking horse and the 44 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: sawdust doll. The doll was the first to speak. Oh, 45 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: how glad I am to see you, she said, as 46 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: she stood up on her sawdust stuffed legs and looked 47 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: at the horse high above her head. You can't imagine 48 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: how glad I am, and I am glad to see 49 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: you made the horse. I never dreamed I would be 50 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 1: brought to the house where you were. Tell me, are 51 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: you going to be a present too? No, I was 52 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: bought for Dorothy's birthday, was the answer. Don't you remember 53 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: I left the store some weeks ago. You are going 54 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: to be Dave's present? Yes, I am, and I hope 55 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: I will be a good one, said the white rocking horse. 56 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: You certainly will be. And now, please tell me about 57 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 1: my friends at the store, she begged. How are the 58 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: bold tin soldier and the calico clown each send you 59 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: his love? Said the white horse, and the candy rabbit, 60 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: the lamb on wheels and the monkey on a stick. 61 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 1: Each and everyone wanted to be remembered to you. That 62 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: was very kind of them, I'm sure, said the sawdust doll. 63 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: But tell me have you had any fun since I've left. Oh, 64 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: a little, was the answer. Only last night the elephant, 65 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: who borrowed some roller skates, started to race with me, 66 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: said the rocking horse. We got as far as the elevators, 67 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,119 Speaker 1: but one of his skates came off. We started back, 68 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: and then the watchman came in and spoiled the fun. 69 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: What a shame, cried the Sawdustal, I wish I had 70 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: been there to see, but I am so glad you 71 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: have come to live here. Is it a nice place, 72 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: asked the horse. Oh the very nicest, exclaimed the sawdust. All. 73 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: Dorothy is such a kind girl to me, and you 74 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: will find her brother Dave, a good boy too. I 75 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: suppose you are going to belong to him. Well, I 76 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: haven't really heard much about it, said the horse. A 77 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: number of boys came into the store and tried to 78 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: ride me. One gave me some kicks in my side 79 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: so hard that I was afraid all my paint would 80 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: come off. But a girl in the store oiled me, 81 00:05:54,720 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: and I am all right again. I think I remember Dave. Yes, 82 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: he was in the store once when Dorothy's mother brought 83 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: her little girl in to look at dolls, and I 84 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: was the one the mother picked out because I had 85 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: such nice eyes, nice brown eyes, I think, she said, 86 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: cried the rocking horse. Well, of course it would not 87 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: do for me to say that, said the sawdust all smiling. 88 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: At any rate, Here we two are together and in 89 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: a happy home. And I am glad of it, So 90 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: am I, the rocking horse said. And I am too, 91 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: came from the jumping jack. If it had not been 92 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: for you, my rocking friend, he went on, I might 93 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: still be dust covered and in the attic. So the 94 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: toys talked among themselves and even moved about a little, 95 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: but not too much, for they could not tell at 96 00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: what moment some one might come in. Well, you will 97 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,799 Speaker 1: soon have Dave riding on your back, said the sawdust 98 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: doll to the rocking horse, as together they waited. I 99 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: can see the morning light coming over the hills. And 100 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: I heard Dorothy and Dave saying yesterday that they were 101 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: going to get up even before the sun to see 102 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: what Dave had gotten. He certainly got a fine lot 103 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: of presents, remarked the jumping jack in a sort of 104 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:32,119 Speaker 1: rusty squeaking voice. I hope, hush here they come now, 105 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: whispered the sawdust doll. The door opened in rush too, happy, laughing, 106 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: shouting children. Here is my white rocking horse, shouted Dave. Oh, 107 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: it's just the very one I hoped i'd get With 108 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: a leap. He was up on the red saddle and 109 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: grasping the red reins in his hands. Yep, cried the boy, 110 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: and he kicked his feet on the sides of the horse. 111 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: But as Dave had on soft slippers, he did not 112 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: hurt the white rocking horse in the least, nor did 113 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: he chip off any paint. Here I go, here I go, 114 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: shouted Dave. Oh what a fine horse. He's lovely, Dave, 115 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: said his sister. The white rocking horse felt very happy, 116 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: and so did the sawdust doll, and even the jumping 117 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: jack was as jolly as the rest. You may have 118 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: a ride on my horse if you want to, Dorothy, 119 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: said Dave, as he slowly brought his steed to a stop. 120 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: Thank you, answered his sister. And so the day came 121 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: and brought happiness with it to Dave, and also to 122 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: the white rocking horse and the sawdust doll. For the 123 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: toys were in a fine house and had kind children 124 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: to look after them. And that means more than you 125 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:11,119 Speaker 1: think to toys. As the day went on, many visitors 126 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: came to the house. Among these were Mirabel and Arnold, 127 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: the boy and girl who lived next door. Oh what 128 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: nice things you got, said Mirabel. I wanted a lamb 129 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: on wheels for my birthday, such as I once saw 130 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: in the store. But I have so many things I 131 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: don't exactly need that now. Maybe I'll get one later on. 132 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: And I wanted a bold tin soldier, said Arnold, her brother. 133 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: But I have a paint set and a drum, and 134 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: I'll wait until my next birthday for the soldier. The 135 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: fun of the evening was as jolly as that during 136 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: the day. But at last Mother said, come now, children, 137 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: it is time to go to sleep. You may play 138 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: with your white rocking horse tomorrow, Dave, and you may 139 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: have a play party for your sawdust doll. Dorothy, and 140 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: very happy indeed, brother and sister went to bed. It 141 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: became very still and quiet and dark in the house. 142 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: It was like the hour in the department store when 143 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: there is no one to see the toys. Now I 144 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: can move about, said the white rocking horse, who had 145 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: been taken up to Dave's room. I wish I could 146 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: see the sawdust doll and have a talk with her. 147 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: She is in Dorothy's room, said an old driver who 148 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: had once sat on a tin express wagon. Dorothy always 149 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: takes her doll to bed with her, and I think 150 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: i'll go in and see my friend, said the horse. 151 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: I can gallop softly down the hall and into Dorothy's room, 152 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: as long as no one says I am allowed to 153 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: move about. Yes, go ahead, said the driver. I'd go 154 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: with you if I still had my wagon. Go and 155 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: see the sawdust doll. So rocking softly over the thick 156 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: carpet and making no noise, the white horse made his 157 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: way out of Dave's room, down the hall and straight 158 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: to where Dorothy was sleeping, with the sawdust doll on 159 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: the pillow beside her. The white rocking horse stopped in 160 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: the hall outside of Dorothy's room. The door was open, 161 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: and in the dim glow of a night light, the 162 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: horse could see the sawdust doll on the bed. Hi, 163 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 1: there s come on out here and have a talk, 164 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: called the rocking horse. What's that? Who is calling me? 165 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: Asked the sawdust doll. Or She had fallen asleep, being 166 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: rather tired from having had so much fun that day. 167 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: I am calling you, answered the white rocking horse. Come 168 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: on out into the hall. I don't want to come 169 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: in for fear someone might come along, and it would 170 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: never do to let it be known that we toys 171 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: can move and talk when no one sees us. Indeed, 172 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: no never, exclaimed the sawdust doll. Wait a minute, and 173 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: I'll come out to you. As you said, it would 174 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: not do to be caught. I'll slip down and come out. 175 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: The white rocking horse waited in the hall. Soon he 176 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: heard a little thud on the carpet. That was the 177 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: sawdust Doll sliding down out of Dorothy's bed to the floor. 178 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: A moment later, she stood beside the rocking horse in 179 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: the hall. I hope you won't catch a cold, said 180 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: the horse softly. It is breezy in this hall. Oh no, 181 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: I have a nice little warm shawl Dorothy made for me, 182 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: answered the sawdust doll. Thank you for thinking of me, though, well, 183 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: you see, I want to be able to take a 184 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: good report of you back to your friends in the 185 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: toy store and aide the horse. Do you think you'll 186 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: ever get back there again? The doll asked, as she 187 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: snuggled up in a corner, wrapping the shawl around her. 188 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, the horse replied. Of course, I could 189 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: rock back to the store if no one saw me. 190 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: But it is a long way, and if I went 191 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: through the streets, i'd almost certainly be seen. I think 192 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: so too, said the doll. I'm afraid we shall just 193 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: have to stay here together the rest of our lives. Well, 194 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: I like it in this house since you are here, 195 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: said the horse. And who knows, perhaps some of the 196 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: other toys may join us here on some future birthday. 197 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: Can't that be fine? Exclaimed the doll, clapping her hands. 198 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 1: I'd dearly loved to see the bold tin soldier again, 199 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: and the calico clown, the lamb on wheels, the candy rabbit, 200 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: and the monkey on a stick. I'd like to finish 201 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: the race with the elephant on his roller skates, said 202 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: the horse, laughing softly. But I don't suppose I ever will. 203 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: He did look so funny when one skate came off. 204 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: I wish I had been there to see, said the 205 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: sawdust doll. Now tell me everything that happened in the 206 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: store after I left. So the horse told of different happenings, 207 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: how sometimes rough boys ran in and jumped on his back, 208 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: And how one unpleasant boy poked the calico clown so 209 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: hard that the cymbals were nearly broken, And how the 210 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: candy rabbit had a bit of sugar chipped off one ear. 211 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: Dear me, how exciting, cried the sawdust all. And now 212 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: tell me about yourself, urged the white rocking horse. Have 213 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: you had any adventures? Oh? I should say I had? Yes, indeed, 214 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: was the answer. Did I tell you about the time 215 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: Dave ran over me with the rocking chair, pretending it 216 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: was a horse like you? My sawdust ran out of 217 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: a hole in my side, and I fainted? No, really 218 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: did you? Indeed I did. It was the strangest feeling. 219 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: But I should think if all your sawdust ran out, 220 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: and really, how terrible that must have been, you wouldn't 221 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: be here any more, said the horse. Oh it didn't 222 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: all run out, the doll, answered. Dorothy's father hurried to 223 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: the carpenter shop and got more sawdust, and Dorothy's mother 224 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: sewed it up in me. So I was all right again. 225 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: I'm glad of that, remarked the white rocking horse. So am, 226 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: I said the doll. But do you know since then 227 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: I have not been quite the same in what way, 228 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: asked the white rocking horse. Well, I seem to have 229 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: a little indigestion, went on the sawdust doll. I think 230 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: the carpenter shop sawdust they stuffed into me was not 231 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: the same kind that was put in me when I 232 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: was made in the shop. Very likely, not, agreed the horse. 233 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: All sawdust is not alike. But still you are looking 234 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: rather well. I am glad you think so, remarked the doll. 235 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: But now let us talk of something more pleasant. Tell 236 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: me again about the race you had with the elephant 237 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: on his roller skates. So the white horse did. But 238 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: as you know as much of that funny race as 239 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: I do, there is no need of putting it in 240 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: here again. So the two friends talked together in the hall, 241 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: until all of a sudden the doll exclaimed, Oh, it 242 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: is getting daylight. We must go back to our places. 243 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: You to Dave's room, and I to Dorothy's. Quick The 244 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: white rocking horse galloped back down the hall, and the 245 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: doll made her way into the room of the little girl, 246 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: whose birthday present she was. Now whether the carpenter shop 247 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: sawdust was not the right kind to allow the doll 248 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: to move quickly enough, and whether the oil the clerk 249 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: had rubbed on the side of the horse made him 250 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: a bit slow and slippery. I cannot say anyhow. Daylight 251 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: suddenly broke just as the doll reached the side of 252 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: Dorothy's bed, and before she had time to climb up 253 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: into it by taking hold of the blankets. As for 254 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: the horse, he was only halfway inside Dave's room when 255 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: the sun came up and awakened both children, and of 256 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: course their eyes being open. Dorothy looked at her doll 257 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: and Dave at his horse. Neither toy dared move. Oh oh, 258 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: cried Dave when he saw that his white rocking horse 259 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: was on the other side of the room from where 260 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: he had left it when he went to sleep the 261 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: night before. Oh oh, someone played with my horse. What 262 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: makes you think, so, asked his father, coming in to 263 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: see what Dave was shouting about. Because he's moved, the 264 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: little boy answered, my rocking horse has moved. I guess 265 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: the wind blew him, said Daddy. The wind from your 266 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: open window blew on the horse made him rock to 267 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: and fro, and he moved that way. But Dave shook 268 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: his head. Either. My horse moved by himself in the 269 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: night when I was asleep, he said, or else somebody 270 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: was riding him. And when Dorothy woke up and saw 271 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: her doll lying on the carpet just under the edge 272 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 1: of the bed, the little girl cried out as Dave 273 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: had done. Oh oh, oh, what's the matter, asked mother, 274 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: hurrying in. Somebody took my doll out of bed, or 275 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: else she got out herself in the night, said Dorothy. 276 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: She probably fell out, said mother, with a laugh. The 277 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: doll couldn't get out herself. And no one has been 278 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: in your room. But we know what happened, don't we. 279 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: And that's the end of this part. Good night, sleep tight.
