THE DONKEY’S TAIL
“Can you see?” asked Hilda Wells, as she tied the handkerchief over Fred Warren’s eyes.
“You might make it a little tighter,” answered Fred.
So Hilda tightened the blindfolder.
“Now, we’ll turn you around three times, start you straight,—and you pin the tail on the donkey,” she said.
The “donkey” was a large picture of that animal fastened to the wall at the opposite side of the room. It was minus its paper tail, which Fred held in his hand.
