Scatter Brain Stewart the Fire Captain's Son

Stewart was the Fire Captain's son and Stewart wanted nothing more than to become a junior fireman, a "fire boy." Finally the Captain agreed and Stewart had a bed right along with the regular firemen.

When the first alarm sounded Steward was so excited he forgot to put on his boots and all the firemen waited while Steward went back for his boots. Needless to say, this made them late to the fire and everyone was upset. The firemen began calling him "Scatter-Brain Stewart." This behavior continued until the firemen came up with a plan and the next time Stewart and the crew were the first ones to the fire. The Captain was very pleased.

But even the best plans are not always perfect. Scatter-Brain Stewart was not completely ready to help fight the fire!
