The winner of the Derby
arrives with the entry.
Fine, come in.
Lets all go in.
Good night!
Good night to everyone!
Hello, Princess.
Hello.
The split pea soup
and the succotash...
fell in love one spring
and summer.
The split pea soup
caught the succotash...
on the rest of the
hardware dormer.
Must you do that?
No.
Thats a relief.
No you don't.
On the way home the succotash
had a pack on like a donkey.
Whats the matter?
You staggering?
Where's Bill?

Mr. Brooks!
They took him away!
Who took him?
Mr. Jones, the feed man.
Come with the sheriff.
He had attachment papers.
What papers?
He just took him.
Why didn't you stop him?
They had a rope to his neck
and tied him to an automobile.
That could kill him.
I couldn't keep up with them.
Where'd they go?
I don't know.
I'll find him.
Dan, wait!
Wait a minute!
Dan!
Come on, you stubborn mule!
What are you doing?
Hey!
What are you doing
to that horse?
Wait a minute.
Take your hands off me.
Come on!
Take it easy!
You'll cool off in there.
Take care of my horse.
You won't need it.
He's gone screwy.
Whats eating him?
Someone attached his horse
and he's gone crazy.
He's been hollering
all night for you.
Hello, Princess.
I got you some food.
Thats wonderful.
I'll be back in a few minutes.
Some coffee?
Boy, could I use this.
They wouldn't let me
in all night.
Is there anything we can do?
No, we're sunk.
I asked father for...
What?
Don't be angry.
It didn't make any difference.
He said, if you wanted to
make good, this is your chance.
He's right, too.
I bet the bunch back there are
getting a laugh out of this.
Don't give up.
There isn't anything we can do.
Its just not my cards.
If I could only get out of here...
Maybe I could...
It doesn't matter.
We didn't wish hard enough.
Whiskers didn't hear us.
Cute hat, where'd you get it?
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
Make paper boxes.
Margaretll like that.
Don't do that. You'll
never forgive yourself.
I promised her I'd come back.
I'll go back to paper boxes.
It isn't too late,
something might happen.
This is not the day for miracles.
