Then, all of a sudden, a voice called, saying:
"What in the world are you doing, my friend?"
The Monkey stopped short, and flipped his tail from side to side.
"Well, I don't see you, and I don't know who you are," he said, "but if you want to know what I'm doing, I'm cutting up Monkeyshines! That's what I'm doing! Cutting up Monkeyshines!"
CHAPTER VI
IN A CAVE
Out from under a large, green leaf, underneath which he had been sitting, crawled a long green creature. The green creature looked at the brown Monkey, who, after jumping about, sat down on a little hummock of grass to rest.
"What did you say you were doing?" asked the bug.
"Cutting up Monkeyshines," was the answer. "We Monkeys, whether we are toys or not, call our fun 'Monkeyshines,' and I thought I'd cut up a few while I was here by myself. I didn't know you minded."
