Everybody was pleased
when Sally Henny Penny sent
out a printed poster to say
that she was going to reopen
the shop–”Henny’s Opening
Sale! Grand cooperative Jumble!
Penny’s penny prices!
Come buy, come try, come
buy!”
The poster really was most
‘ticing.
There was a rush upon the
opening day. The shop was
crammed with customers,
and there were crowds of
mice upon the biscuit canisters.
Sally Henny Penny gets
rather flustered when she tries
to count out change, and she
insists on being paid cash; but
she is quite harmless.
And she has laid in a
remarkable assortment of
bargains.
There is something to
please everybody.
