48...Womble and Ike were
going over the election results. Ike was devastated, he could not understand
what he had done wrong. He had campaigned so very hard....not even one seat,
not even a mention of Roosevelt. Womble had to console him and explain that
Roosevelt had not been misrepresented, he had not lost by default, he had
not been shunned by his public.. it was just that "Ike.. well you
are....well..... just....100 or so years too late!" |
|
49...With that , Womble
began to read the remains of the paper ... "Ike, have you seen this.. LOOOOK....in
missing bears , this one is for Toddimus...it says someone is looking for
him., let's go and phone him." |
 |

 |
|
50...Ike dialled the
operator and asked to call Pennsylvania 6500 ...collect, he had spent all
his change on pin badges for the election. Armed with the advert in his
paws, Ike listened as the phone rang. A small, rather sad little voice
answered and Ike began " Hello..is that Toddimus..Toddimus Truffle??
|
|
52...Yep sure is
boy, what can I do for you, is that you Ike?? Ike explained about the
advertisement and what he had read in the Telegraph paper. Miss Ruffle was
looking for him, after all these years and wanted him home..NOW! |
 |

53...Toddimus Truffle
entrepebear, master of all, fainted, stone cold flat on the floor. It was
all too much for him. His Miss Ruffle now a grown independent bear,
whom he had not seen for so many years. Now she was looking for her Daddy??
WHY? |
|
54...Meanwhile, back in
the Blue Ribbon Household. Miss Ruffle and her friend Maud were preparing
some things for her bottom drawer. Miss Ruffle had completed her first home
furnishing item and was tying off the last stitch. |
