“A Fox in Lamb's Clothes”

S.B. enlists L.B. to gather wild strawberries for shortcake. Wrinkles arrives with new springs in his legs, offering to carry. The gang is frightened by the roar of a bull moose and sight of his antlers---E.E. in disguise, pranking them. A pop-gun is taken up in defense, with a spring being provided by Wrinkles from a leg, with strawberries for ammo. E.E., hit, thinks the red berry juice is his blood, runs crying mama. M.M. intercedes, makes shortcake, and everyone feasts at her table on strawberry shortcake!
