31
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 1: This is part five of our story about the White

32
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: Rocking Horse. Dave is so happy to have the horse

33
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: he wanted. When he and Dorothy go to bed, the

34
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 1: white Rocking Horse decides to go and visit the sawdust all.

35
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: They chat all night and realize that the sun will

36
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: be coming up soon and try to rush back to

37
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: their places, but don't quite make it. Dave and Dorothy

38
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: both wonder how their toys got to where they found them.

39
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: They are sure they can move around on their own.

40
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: The white rocking Horse Part five.

41
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 2: One day, about a.

42
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: Week later, there came a warm sunny day. May I

43
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: take my rocking horse out on the porch and ride him,

44
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: asked Dave. Yes, mother answered, and I'll take my sawdust

45
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: all out there, and maybe Mirabelle and Arnold will come

46
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: over and we can have a play party, said Dorothy.

47
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: The children went out on the porch and they could

48
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: look over next door and see their two little friends.

49
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: See how fast I can ride my horse, called Dave

50
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: to Arnold. The boy got up on the back of

51
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: the white horse and rocked to and fro, and the

52
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 1: horse traveled across the porch as a rocking chair sometimes

53
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: travels across the room. Oh he's a fine horse, cried Arnold,

54
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: as he came over to play, bringing his toy train

55
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: of cars with him, and mirabel brought her wax doll.

56
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: Let me ride him, Dave, will you? After Dave and

57
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: Arnold had taken turns riding the white horse, they left

58
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: him on the edge of the porch to play with

59
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: the toy train. Suddenly, Carlo, the fuzzy dog that had

60
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: once carried the sawdust doll, out to his kennel, hiding

61
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: her in the straw, ran around the corner of the house,

62
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: barking loud. Whoof barked Carlo, and he ran straight for

63
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: the white rocking horse. How it happened no one seemed

64
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: to know, but Carlo upset the horse, which tumbled down

65
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: the porch steps with many a bang and bump.

66
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 2: Dear me, thought the horse, this is not.

67
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 1: A pleasant adventure at all.

68
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 2: What is going to happen?

69
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: Bang, bump, crack sounded as he rolled over and over

70
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: down the steps.

71
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: Oh what pain in my leg?

72
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: Said white rocking horse to himself. Dave ran over to

73
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: his toy, and when he saw his white horse lying

74
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 1: on the sidewalk at the foot of the steps, the

75
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: little boy cried, Oh his.

76
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 2: Leg is broken.

77
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: Oh the leg of my white rocking horse is broken.

78
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: I can never ride him again.

79
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 1: Dave made such a fuss out on the porch, crying

80
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: when he saw his toy lying at the foot of

81
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: the steps, that his mother hurried out to see what

82
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: the problem was.

83
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 2: Dear me, did you fall off?

84
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: Asked mother as she saw the horse lying on its

85
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: side and Dave standing at the bottom of the steps

86
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 1: near his toy.

87
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 2: Are you hurt?

88
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: Oh no, Mother, but my horse is My horse is hurt.

89
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: You can't hurt a wooden rocking horse, said mother as

90
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: she went over to see what had happened. Oh, yes,

91
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: you can, sobbed Dave. My horse's leg is broken. I

92
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: can never ride him again, Oh, dear Mother looked at

93
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: the horse lying on its side at the foot of

94
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 1: the steps. If there had been no one there to look,

95
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: the white horse might have tried to get up, even

96
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: with all his pain, But as it was against the

97
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: rules to move or say anything as long as human

98
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: eyes were watching, the poor white rocking horse just had

99
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: to lie there. Dear me, one of the legs really

100
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: is broken, said mother as she set the horse upright.

101
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: And being a wooden horse with rockers under him such

102
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: as some chairs have, the horse could stand upright even

103
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: though one of his legs was cracked clear through. Yes,

104
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: his leg is broken, and now I can never have

105
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: a ride on him anymore.

106
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 2: Sobbed Dave.

107
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: Oh dear, oh, it isn't as bad as that, said

108
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: mother with a kind smile as she patted her little

109
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: boy's head. I think we can have the broken leg mended.

110
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: But how did it happen? Did you ride your horse

111
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: off the porch? Dave, no, Mother, he answered, I was

112
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: playing with Arnold's train, and Carlo ran around the corner barking,

113
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: and he ran between my horse's legs, I guess, and

114
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: upset him. Oh is it really bad? Yes, But it

115
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: could be worse, replied mother. If your leg had been broken,

116
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 1: or Dorothy's, or Mirabelle's or Arnold's, it could.

117
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 2: Not so easily be fixed.

118
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: Will you fix the broken leg of my white rocking horse,

119
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: asked Dave eagerly. I cannot fix it myself. Mother answered,

120
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: but I will have Daddy take your horse to the hospital.

121
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: I was in the hospital once, said Arnold, and I

122
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: had some bread and jelly. Will they give my horse

123
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: bread and jelly in the hospital.

124
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: Asked Dave.

125
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: Probably not. His mother replied with a smile. It is

126
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: not the same kind of hospital. The one where I

127
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 1: will have Daddy take your white rocking horse is a

128
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 1: toy hospital where all sorts of broken playthings are fixed. There.

129
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 2: Your horse will be made as good as new. Oh.

130
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 2: I will be so happy if he is, said Dave.

131
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: And the white horse himself, though he dared say nothing,

132
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: just then thought how glad he would be to have

133
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: his broken leg fixed. Some of the splinters were sticking

134
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: into him. Patrick the gardener, came out and carried the

135
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: broken legged rocking horse into the front hall. We'll let

136
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: him stand there until Daddy comes home with the car

137
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: and he can take him to the hospital, said mother.

138
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: And then it was that the white rocking horse had

139
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: a chance to speak to the sawdust doll. Dorothy laid

140
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: her doll on a chair in the hall to help Dave,

141
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: Mirabell and Arnold bring the toy train inside, as it

142
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: was getting too cold to play out on the porch.

143
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, murmured the doll. Oh no, exclaimed Dave's daddy

144
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 1: when he came home and heard the story. A rocking

145
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 1: horse with a broken leg. Of course, I'll take him

146
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: to the toy hospital, and not waiting for his supper

147
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: in case the hospital was closed, Daddy wrapped the white

148
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: rocking horse in a sheet, put him once more in

149
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: the back of the car, and started off. A little later,

150
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: the white rocking horse found himself in the toy hospital.

151
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: It was not such a place as you have seen.

152
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: If you have ever been in the buildings where sick

153
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: people are made well, there were no beds, and no doctors.

154
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: And no strange smells.

155
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: Yes, wait a minute, there were strange smells of glue,

156
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: but the white rocking horse rather liked them. Instead of

157
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: a doctor, there was a jolly looking man with a

158
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: long apron and a square paper cap. Can you fix

159
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: the broken leg of this rocking horse, asked Dave's father.

160
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: The hospital toy doctor looked at the white rocking horse.

161
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: I will have to put a new piece in his leg,

162
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: he said, It is badly splintered halfway down. Will it

163
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: be as strong as before so my little boy can

164
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: ride him, asked Addie.

165
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 2: It will be even stronger.

166
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: Answered the hospital toy doctor. I will have him ready

167
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: for you in a few days, perhaps tomorrow. And will

168
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: the broken legs show, asked Daddy hardly any was the reply.

169
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: I will paint it over so you will never know it.

170
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: Then the horse will be almost as good as new,

171
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: said Daddy. Just as good, said the toy doctor. And

172
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: the horse felt much better when he heard this. His

173
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: leg did not pain him so much. The hospital toy

174
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: doctor set the white rocking horse over in one corner

175
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: near a workbench. Dave's daddy, after a long look around

176
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: the hospital started back home in his car. We'll soon

177
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: have you fixed, my fine fellow, said the toy doctor,

178
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: as he again took up his work of putting a

179
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: new pair of eyes in a wax doll. We'll make

180
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: as good a horse as you as before. I certainly

181
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 1: am glad of that, thought the horse to himself. It

182
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: soon became I'm too dark for the toy doctor to

183
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: see to work any longer, even though he turned on

184
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 1: the lights, so he took off his long apron, laid

185
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: aside his square paper cap, locked up the place, and

186
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: went home. And then the white rocking horse took a

187
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: long breath. Oh, now that I am alone, I will

188
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: move around as well as I can on three legs

189
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: and talk to some of the broken toys here, said

190
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: the white rocking horse aloud. Are you badly hurt? He

191
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: asked a jack in the box, who was on the

192
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: workbench nearby. My spring is gone, was the answer. I

193
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: was brought here to have a new one put in. Well,

194
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: I hope you will soon be mended, said the white horse.

195
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: I wonder if any of my friends are here in

196
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: this hospital, I say, toys, he cried, let's all talk together,

197
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: and all at once, a big white paper spread out

198
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: on the bench began to move, and out from under

199
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: it came a toy, at the sight of which the

200
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: horse exclaimed, Well, I do declare, who would have thought

201
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: to find you here? What happened to you, dear me?

202
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 1: What a surprise. Many of the toys, which had been

203
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: mended since having been brought to the hospital stood up

204
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: and looked at the white rocking horse as he called

205
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: to them, and they wondered what had surprised him. So,

206
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: my goodness, that horse is making a great deal of noise,

207
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: said a large wooden soldier, one of whose legs was

208
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: in splints.

209
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 2: It had been.

210
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: Broken in three places when the little boy who owned

211
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: the soldier had played on him with a drumstick. I

212
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: should say that horse was making a great deal of noise,

213
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: agreed a tin poodle dog whose tail needed straightening. What's

214
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: it all about, mister horse, he barked. Oh excuse me,

215
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: my toy friends. I didn't mean to disturb you, said

216
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: the white rocking horse kindly, but I was so surprised

217
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: to see an old friend of mine here that I

218
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: just couldn't help calling out. Who is your friend? Asked

219
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: a double humped camel. There he is, said the horse,

220
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: and he waved his tail toward the animal that had

221
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: come out from under the big piece of white paper

222
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: on the workbench of the toy hospital.

223
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 2: Doctor.

224
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: All the other toys looked and saw an elephant, But

225
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: the white rocking horse did more than look. He cried

226
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: out to think of seeing you here, my elephant friend.

227
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: Why the last time we were together was in the

228
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: toy store. Yes, and I was trying to race with

229
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: you on roller skates, said the elephant, with a laugh.

230
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: Wasn't it funny when my skate came off? The other

231
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: toy stared in interest. Very funny, agreed the horse. We

232
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: must tell our friends here about it. But I am

233
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: sorry to see what has happened to you, mister elephant,

234
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: went on the horse. Did you get broken this way

235
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: when you fell off the roller skates or anything like that.

236
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,119
Speaker 1: You certainly do look strange, not at all like yourself,

237
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: and I don't feel like myself, said the elephant. What

238
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: happened to you, asked the horse. Oh, I have had

239
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: many adventures, replied the elephant. After you were taken away

240
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: by the man in the car. I was sold to

241
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: a lady and a little boy and taken to their home.

242
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: Was it a nice place? The horse wanted to know.

243
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: The place was all right, the elephant answered, But that

244
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 1: little boy, dear me, I don't just know what to

245
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: say about him. He certainly did not treat me very nicely.

246
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: Why do you know? He went on speaking in rather

247
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: a funny voice, on account of his trunk being broken off.

248
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 1: He never gave me a single peanut all the while

249
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 1: I was with him. No, really, was he that unkind,

250
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: asked the broken jack in the box. But that wasn't

251
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 1: the worst, continued the elephant. After the boy had dropped

252
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: some bread and jam on me, he thought he'd wash

253
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: me off in the bathroom. He picked me up to

254
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: carry me there, but he dropped me on the hard

255
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 1: tile floor. And well you see what happened to me.

256
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: My trunk was broken off.

257
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 2: Broke off short.

258
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: What a sad accident, exclaimed the horse. You may well say, so,

259
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: returned the elephant. The little boy felt so sorry for me,

260
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: I'll say that of him. He called his mother and

261
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 1: she tried to fix me. She glued my trunk on,

262
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: but she got it crooked. And when I saw myself

263
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: in the glass, I was surprised. I was glad none

264
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: of the other toy animals could see me. What happened next,

265
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: asked the horse. As the elephant stopped to catch his breath.

266
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: It made him rather out of breath to talk without

267
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: his trunk. Well after the boy's mother glued my trunk on,

268
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 1: he played with me for a while, but he dropped

269
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: me again, and my trunk broke off again in the

270
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: same place. After that, the boy's father said I had

271
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: better come to the hospital. So here I am. But

272
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 1: where is your trunk, asked the horse, back under that

273
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: piece of paper where I was sleeping. The big animal answered,

274
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: it is to be fastened on me properly tomorrow. The

275
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: toy hospital doctor first washed the jam off me. I

276
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 1: was made clean again, and I was glad of that.

277
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: Then to keep the dust off me, he put me

278
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: under that paper. But when I heard you speaking, white

279
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 1: rocking horse, I just had to come out. Trunk or

280
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: no trunk. I'm glad you did, said the white rocking horse. Really,

281
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: now that I look at you again, I'm getting rather

282
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,959
Speaker 1: used to seeing you without your trunk, though at first

283
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: I hardly knew you. Do you suffer much now, not

284
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: as much as I did, was the answer. But I

285
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 1: will be all right after tomorrow, when my trunk is

286
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 1: to be put back on. Then I suppose i'll go

287
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: back to that boy's house. I hope he treats you better,

288
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: said the white horse. I think he will, replied the elephant.

289
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: When his father took me away, he said, the boy

290
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: could not have me back after I was mended until

291
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: he knew how to handle his toys. So I have

292
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: hopes of being better off with my mended trunk than before.

293
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: Let us all hope, so sighed the tin poodle dog.

294
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 1: It is funny that some children think, because we are

295
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: toys we have no feelings. Yes, that is so, said

296
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: the white horse. But Dave, the boy who owns me,

297
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 1: is very kind. It was an accident that my leg

298
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: was broken. Carlo, a poodle dog something like you, my

299
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: tin friend, only real, ran too close to me and

300
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: knocked me down the steps, said the horse to the

301
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,199
Speaker 1: tin poodle dog. Oh so you are injured too, are you?

302
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: Asked the elephant. I have been talking so much about myself,

303
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: mister horse, that I never thought to ask what your

304
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: trouble was. Sorry, it's okay, made the horse politely. And

305
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: now as we are here by ourselves and no one

306
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 1: can see us. Suppose we have a little fun that

307
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: is as much fun as we can have, broken and

308
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: twisted as we are.

309
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 2: Hooray, that's it.

310
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: Let's have some fun, cried the tin poodle dog with

311
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 1: a funny little bark. And that's the end of this part.

312
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: Good night, sleep tight.
