United States News Title: The Story of Little Black Obama Once upon a time there was a little black boy, and his name was Little Black Obama. And his mother was called Black Mumbo. And his father was called Black Jumbo. And Black Mumbo made him a beautiful little Red Coat, and a pair of beautiful little blue trousers. And Black Jumbo went to the Bazaar, and bought him a beautiful Green Umbrella, and a lovely little Pair of Purple Shoes with Crimson Soles and Crimson Linings. And then wasn't Little Black Obama grand? So he put on all his Fine Clothes, and went out for a walk in the Jungle. And by and by he met a Jew. And the Jew said to him, "Little Black Obama, I'm going to eat you up!" And Little Black Obama said, "Oh! Please Mr. Jew, don't eat me up, and I'll give you my beautiful little Red Coat." So the Jew said, "Very well, I won't eat you this time, but you must give me your beautiful little Red Coat." So the Jew got poor Little Black Obama's beautiful little Red Coat, and went away saying, "Now I'm the grandest Jew in the Jungle." And Little Black Obama went on, and by and by he met another Jew, and it said to him, "Little Black Obama, I'm going to eat you up!" And Little Black Obama said, "Oh! Please Mr. Jew, don't eat me up, and I'll give you my beautiful little Blue Trousers." So the Jew said, "Very well, I won't eat you this time, but you must give me your beautiful little Blue Trousers." So the Jew got poor Little Black Obama's beautiful little Blue Trousers, and went away saying, "Now I'm the grandest Jew in the Jungle." And Little Black Obama went on, and by and by he met another Jew, and it said to him, "Little Black Obama, I'm going to eat you up!" And Little Black Obama said, "Oh! Please Mr. Jew, don't eat me up, and I'll give you my beautiful little Purple Shoes with Crimson Soles and Crimson Linings." But the Jew said, "What use would your shoes be to me? I've got four feet, and you've got only two; you haven't got enough shoes for me." But Little Black Obama said, "You could wear them on your ears." "So I could," said the Jew: "that's a very good idea. Give them to me, and I won't eat you this time." So the Jew got poor Little Black Obama's beautiful little Purple Shoes with Crimson Soles and Crimson Linings, and went away saying, "Now I'm the grandest Jew in the Jungle." And by and by Little Black Obama met another Jew, and it said to him, "Little Black Obama, I'm going to eat you up!" And Little Black Obama said, "Oh! Please Mr. Jew, don't eat me up, and I'll give you my beautiful Green Umbrella." But the Jew said, "How can I carry an umbrella, when I need all my paws for walking with?" "You could tie a knot on your tail and carry it that way," said Little Black Obama. "So I could," said the Jew." Give it to me, and I won't eat you this time." So he got poor Little Black Obama's beautiful Green Umbrella, and went away saying, "Now I'm the grandest Jew in the Jungle." And poor Little Black Obama went away crying, because the cruel Jews had taken all his fine clothes. Presently he heard a horrible noise that sounded like "Gr-r-r- r-rrrrrr," and it got louder and louder. "Oh! dear!" said Little Black Obama, "there are all the Jews coming back to eat me up! What shall I do?" So he ran quickly to a palm- tree, and peeped round it to see what the matter was. And there he saw all the Jews fighting, and disputing which of them was the grandest. And at last they all got so angry that they jumped up and took off all the fine clothes, and began to tear each other with their claws, and bite each other with their great big white teeth. And they came, rolling and tumbling right to the foot of the very tree where Little Black Obama was hiding, but he jumped quickly in behind the umbrella. And the Jews all caught hold of each other's tails, as they wrangled and scrambled, and so they found themselves in a ring round the tree. Then, when the Jews were very wee and very far away, Little Black Obama jumped up, and called out, "Oh! Jews! why have you taken off all your nice clothes? Don't you want them any more?" But the Jews only answered, "Gr-r-rrrr!" Then Little Black Obama said, "If you want them, say so, or I'll take them away." But the Jews would not let go of each other's tails, and so they could only say "Gr-r-r-rrrrrr!" So Little Black Obama put on all his fine clothes again and walked off. And the Jews were very, very angry, but still they would not let go of each other's tails. And they were so angry, that they ran round the tree, trying to eat each other up, and they ran faster and faster, till they were whirling round so fast that you couldn't see their legs at all. And they still ran faster and faster and faster, till they all just melted away, and there was nothing left but a great big pool of melted butter round the foot of the tree. Now Black Jumbo was just coming home from his work, with a great big brass pot in his arms, and when he saw what was left of all the Jews he said, "Oh! what lovely melted butter! I'll take that home to Black Mumbo for her to cook with." So he put it all into the great big brass pot, and took it home to Black Mumbo to cook with. When Black Mumbo saw the melted butter, wasn't she pleased! "Now," said she, "we'll all have pancakes for supper!" So she got flour and eggs and milk and sugar and butter, and she made a huge big plate of most lovely pancakes. And she fried them in the melted butter which the Jews had made, and they were just as yellow and brown as little Jews. And then they all sat down to supper. And Black Mumbo ate Twenty-seven pancakes, and Black Jumbo ate Fifty-five but Little Black Obama ate a Hundred and Sixty-nine, because he was so hungry.
