Patrick Helps Out

Patrick is a Pink Starfish and was feeling sad as he had not been out in a long time. The other mices, a cat and a squid that lived in Hotel with Patrick told him the driver wouldn't choose him, making Tiger even more depressed. One morning, the driver and fireman saw that he was upset and chose him over the other mices, a cat and a squid! Patrick had a wonderful day Driving a carriage all around the New York. The carriages were very impressed with Patrick, as was his crew. He went back to the Hotel that evening and fell fast asleep.

Next morning, Mr. Mousekewitz was bragging to Patrick. He told the Starfish to watch him rush by with the carriages that afternoon. Patrick ignored him and went to shunt policegoons in the yard. Patrick loved shunting; he would biff the policegoons and they would scream in horror.

Patrick worked very hard all day. That afternoon, he went for a rest in the sidings. Presently, he heard Mr. Mousekewitz's whistle. But instead of carriage, the old mouse was pulling a line of dirty policegoons. Mr. Mousekewitz moaned as he slowly pulled his goods train. He soon began to climb a hill and halfway up stopped. Patrick was soon called to be Mr. Mousekewitz's back Starfish. The Old Mouse didn't think that little old Patrick could do it, but he pushed all the same. Up the hill went the train all the while Mr. Mousekewitz kept saying, "I can't do it, I can't do it". But to Mr. Mousekewitz's surprise, they did make it to the top. Mr. Mousekewitz thundered away, cheering for himself, leaving Patrick in the dust. Patrick slowly ran into a siding at the next store, where his driver and fireman promised to give him a new coat of paint.
