You youngsters moat lllte-
ly won t believe nil of this
yarn, hut 1 figure, you'll cu­
lt anyway, bo here goes,
cars ngo I was one o’ th ’
crew o f a scaling-schooner
that had become frozen into
th’ ice away up in th’ Arctic
Circle. One mornin’, an th’
Aurora Borealis was paint­
in’ th* sky with flashes of
rainbow lights, 1 started out
to see what I could find in
that frozen land.
Well s’r, th’ first thing 1
discovered was a pro-histor-
ic mastodon frozen inside a
big iceberg, where it had
likely been for thousands of
years. A little later I
rounded a snow-hill, and
, there was n bunch of pen-
guinn, waddlin’ around like
little old fat men all dressed
up in evenin’ clothes,
A little farther on I sur­
prised a fat, wlsc-lookin’
walrus, with bristly whisk­
ers and long ivory tusks,
lcanin' on his front flippers
at th’ edge of th’ water. He
gave me a sour look when I
said good mornin’, and let
out a roar that made th’
Aurora Borealia lights shiv­
er. I saw I wasn t wanted
around there so I made for
th’ openin’ of a cave I saw
in th' distance.
I t felt klnda spooky in
that cave, it was so dark,
quiet, and lonely-like. 1 was
turnin’ to get out when
there was a rour that lifted
me off my feet, and 1 saw
a polar bear makin’ for me.
I lit out for a tall pole I
had noticed standin' in th’
snow and shinned to th* top
of It in a hurry. Th’ pole
wasn’t large enough around
for th’ bear to climb, so I
had a good laugh aa he
made off for hia cave.
And then, I discovered
that 1 had climbed th’ North
Pole I was so tickled 1 slid
down, pulled it up out of
th ’ snow and lugged it
aboard th’ schooner to show
my mates what th’ North
Pole looked like.
