according to which way the little drivers wanted him to go.
"He guides just like a real horse or a boat," said Laddie. Of course there
was no bit in Zip's mouth, as there is in the mouth of a horse, for dogs
have to keep their mouth open so much, to cool off when they are hot, that
a bit would be in the way.
In the soap box Laddie and Russ took their places. Daddy Bunker handed
them the lines and let go of the dog's head.
"Gid-dap!" called Russ.
"Go fast!" ordered Laddie.
"Hold tight and don't get spilled out!" begged Mother Bunker.
"We will!" promised Laddie.
Russ was driving and he didn't feel much like talking just then. He had
to give all his attention to Zip.
Away trotted the dog, pulling after him the cart with the two boys in it.
Over the grass he went, and when Russ saw that the dog seemed to know just

"As soon as Laddie and I go around once more," promised Russ.
Zip didn't seem a bit tired, though he had run fast part of the time.
Laddie got out and this made room for Rose and Violet, for Daddy Bunker
