The farmer sent his boy every day with milk for those at
Camp Rest-a-While, but this time Bunny and Sue had used more than usual,
and Mrs. Brown had to send for some extra.
It did not take Bunny and Sue long to reach the farmhouse, where their
pail was filled by the farmer's wife.
"We've got a surprise at our camp," said Bunny, as they started away,
the little boy carefully carrying the pail of milk.
"Indeed! Is that so? What is it?" asked the farmer's wife.
"We've got two surprises," said Sue. "Daddy brought them from the city.
Bunny has a toy train of cars that runs with a city."
"She means _electricity_," explained Bunny with a laugh, but saying the
big word very slowly.
"I don't care. It sounds like that," declared Sue. "And I've got a Teddy
bear and its eyes are little e-lec-tri-_city_ lamps, and they shine like
anything when you push a button in his back."
"Those are certainly two fine surprises," said the farmer's wife. "Now
be careful not to spill your milk."
"We'll be careful," promised Bunny.
He and Sue walked along the country road toward their camp.
