Everyone shook his head and

said: "The warm weather is coming. Showman always gors when the warm weather comes.'

As for Mr Snowman himself, he knew it had to be that way. There was nothing he could do about it, either.

You never would have guessed by looking at him how sad ho felt about going. With his cane and his high hat and his corn- cob pipe and the shiny cost buttons down his chest, he still looked as carefree as if he were expecting a blizzard, which is the happlest weather for a Snow- man.
