Owl Owl, wise though he was in many ways, and able to read and write and spell his name WOL ... Piglet says: Owl hasn't exactly got Brain but he Knows Things

'Amazing,' said Owl... 'What did you do?'
'Nothing.'
'The best thing,' said Owl wisely.
'Well?' said rabbit again, as Owl knew he was going to do.
'Exactly,' said Owl.
... Owl looked at him and wondered whether to push him off the tree; but, feeling that he could always do it afterwards, he tried once more to find out what they were talking about.

~ Eeyore loses a tail ~

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ 'A Reward!' said Owl very loudly. 'We write a notice to say that we will give a large something to anybody who finds Eeyore's tail.' 'I see, I see,' said Pooh, nodding his head. 'Talking about large somethings,' he went on dreamily, 'I generally have a small something about now - about this time in the morning,' and he looked wistfully at the cupboard in the corner of Owl's parlour; 'just a mouthful of condensed milk or whatnot, with perhaps a lick of honey -' 'Well, then,' said Owl, 'we write out this notice, and we put it up all over the Forest.' 'A lick of honey,' murmured Bear to himself, 'or - or not, as the case may be.' And he gave a deep sigh, and tried very hard to listen to what Owl was saying. But Owl went on and on, using longer and longer words, until at last he came back to where he started, and he explained that the person to write out this notice was Christopher Robin. 'It was he who wrote the ones on my front door for me. Did you see them, Pooh?' For some time now Pooh had been saying 'Yes' and 'No' in turn, with his eyes shut, to all that Owl was saying, and having said, 'Yes, yes,' last time, he said 'No, not at all,' now, without really knowing what Owl was talking about. 'Didn't you see them?' said Owl, a little surprised. 'Come and look at them now.' So they went outside. And Pooh looked at the knocker and the notice below it, and he looked at the bell-rope and the notice below it, and the more he looked at the bell-rope, the more he felt that he had seen something like it, somewhere else, sometime before. 'Handsome bell-rope, isn't it?' said Owl. Pooh nodded. 'It reminds me of something,' he said, 'but I can't think what. Where did you get it?' 'I just came across it in the Forest. It was hanging over a bush, and I thought at first somebody lived there, so I rang it, and nothing happened, and then I rang it again very loudly, and it came off in my hand, and as nobody seemed to want it, I took it home, and -' 'Owl,' said Pooh solemnly, 'you made a mistake. Somebody did want it.' 'Who?' 'Eeyore. My dear friend Eeyore. He was--he was fond of it.' 'Fond of it?' 'Attached to it,' said Winnie-the-Pooh sadly. ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~
