    There was once an old pair who lived up the mountain.Their names were James and Sally. James could not agree with Sally's house keeping.Sally went to make a cake for James who was in the fair. An insect hopped into the bin.So Sally took out all the flour, to look for the insect,It being a wild day the flour blew all around. James came home.Has there been snow here? asked James.She said no. James became angry with Sally. So that finished James and Sally's house keeping.
