Show The Children's Corner fr.E-DirE- by DOROTHY EDMONDS The Woman of the Shoe and Her New House (As Told In Pictures.) The old woman with all her children who wouldn't fit Into the old shoe gathered them together and decided they must have a new house. So she went to the king's palace. The gatekeeper unlocked the gates and let the old woman with her children pass through. The doorkeeper haughtily opened the great door. The guard at the throne room drew back the velvet curtains and the king received them upon his golden throne. The king could do nothing without the beaver. The old woman and her children went to see the beaver at his request and told him the king wished him to cut down a tree to provide them with lumber. The beaver was glad to help and the carpenter sawed the tiee into boards as eoon as It was down. The children danced out upon the lawn and no longer did they have to live In a shoe. They lived In a very grand new house with room enough for all. A Musical Blank Puzzle Here Is a song that you all know. The missing notjs are told below. . 1. One of the shortest words you know. 2.
