Dotty lm~.k w:~s a l w a y s w o r r y i n g , " began d a d d y as the chil(lren sllit~.~l(~(t up I'or the evening story.
"'She worried because her f e e t w e r e too big for her slender
ankles: she worried because she toed in; she worried because he~
tail w a s n ' t beautiful like the peacock's.
"'Poor Daffy Drakel Dotty Duck's husband, had a t e r r i b l e time of it tryin.~
to s o o t h e Dotty.
"'He told her how beautifully she could s w i m a n d how g r a c e f u l he t h o u g h t
her w a l k was and how her voice was s w e e t e r to his ears t h a n a n y voice could
possibly be, for, of course. I)affy [)rake loved Dotty Duck very, very m u c h
a n d w i s h e d her to be happy.
" W h e n the little ones c a m e o u t of t h e i r shell Dotty worried a b o u t t h e m ,
for t h e y , too, had big feet.
" A g a i n poor Daffy c'~me to the rescue and told D o t t y how finely her
babies could s w i m and wh'~t lovely voices t h e y had, j u s t like t h e i r p r e t t y
mamma.
" B u t all his f l a t t e r y was in vain. T h e n he hit upon a scheme. H e got
s o m e hens' eggs for Dotty to set upon an(] hatch. "Now,' c h u c k l e d Daffy to
himself. 'Dotty's babies will have pretty feet and nice voices and perhaPs
b e a u t i f u l feathers, and then she will be happy.'
•' A f t e r three w e e k s tim fluffy, prettY little things w e r e h a t c h e d , a n d D o t t y
was delighted with her new babies. T h e i r little feet w e r e lovely, a n d t h e y
had t h e cutest w a y of s a y i n g 'Cheep, cheep!'
"So Dotty sent for all her friends to come and see her and w a t c h her
babies t a k e their first lesson in s w i m m i n g .
" I t was to be a gala day, and each little baby w a s p r i m p e d and p e r k e d
up to within an inch of its little life.
" T h e guests all arrived, and Dotty Duck q u a c k e d a n d q u a c k e d d e l i g h t e d l y
