Having arranged affairs so satisfactorily, the Scarecrow embraced Happy  
Toko with deep emotion. Dorothy and Sir Hokus shook hands with him and  
wished him every success and happiness. Then the little party from Oz  
walked deliberately to the bean pole in the center of the hall.  
The Silver Islanders were still a bit dazed by the turn affairs had taken and  
stared in astonishment as the Scarecrow and Sir Hokus fastened thick ropes  
around the Cowardly Lion, the Doubtful Dromedary and the Comfortable  
Camel. Similar ropes they tied around their own waists and Dorothy's, and  
the ends of all were fastened securely to the handle of the magic parasol,  
which Dorothy held carefully.

Goodbye, everybody!" called the little girl, suddenly opening the parasol.  
Goodbye!" cried the genial Scarecrow, waving his hand.  
Too stupefied for speech, the assemblage gaped with amazement as the  
party floated gently upward. Up--up--and out of sight whirled the entire  
party.
