"
"Oh, that will be fun!" laughed Sue, clapping her hands. "Here comes
Helen!" she cried a moment later, and then, with joyous shouts and
laughter, a number of children came running into the Brown yard, ready
to play barn store.
CHAPTER VIII
IN A HOLE
"What things are you going to sell?"
"Who's going to tend store?"
"I want to be cashier!"
These were some of the things the boys and girls shouted as they ran
into the barn where Bunny Brown and his sister Sue were waiting for them
to play store. Charlie Star, Helen Newton, fat Bobbie Boomer, Harry
Bentley, George and Mary Watson and Sadie West were among the boys and
girls who came crowding into the barn, for the day before Bunny and his
sister had invited them to spend Saturday in having fun.
"We'll take turns tending store," explained Bunny, after he had shown
his playmates the shelves and boxes that were to be used for shelves.
"And we're going to have our dog Splash deliver things with a basket on
his neck," explained Sue.
"I should think it would be more fun to hitch up your pony Toby to the
basket cart and have him to deliver things," remarked Helen.
