Laurie and Linda had gone to town with their parents. Ilr. Page had business to attend to so the children went at! with their mother. Linda walked between her mummy and Laurie. holding to their hands and trotting hap- pily along in her new shoes.

"Where are we going next?" Laurie injured. ,

"I want to go to the woollen mill to buy some yarn for mit- tens for you.” answered his mo- ther.

"But this is summer. Why do I need mittens?" protested Lau-

rie.

"You won't be wearing them soon. I hope." laughed his moth- er "but I did want to get the yarn now. then I may get- a chance to knit a pair or two be- fore fall. Linda will need some ton. you know."

"Is the mill asked Laurie.

"Oh my.

in that store?”

no," replied Mrs.

Page. "There was yarn in there. but the mill is farther down the street."

They walked along. Laurie's

eyes were busy watching every new thng. When he came to the intersection. he was careful to look both ways and walk across between the white lines.

"What are those white lines for. Mommy?" Laurie asked. "Is it the same as the white line on the road that shows you where you car. pass?"

"No. not exactly.” his mother explained. "These white lines makes a little walk for us. This is called a safety lane for us to cross on. But you must still watch out for cars."

"What are they putting in that big truck? We can't get by, for it's up on the sidewalk.” he said.

"Oh. well walk around it. See they are loading oranges and bananas. No doubt it is going to take that load out to some coun- try store.”

"Right in our Laurie asked eagerly.

"Iim not sure of that." laughed His mother. "Anyway, here is the woollen mill."

Linda held tightly to her mo- ther's dress as she stood inside fhe door. What a noise there was! Laurie's eyes were wide in amazement. He could hear the turn of the motors and I banging sound that came from a frame .hat moved back and forth.

"Come here and see the wool."

"That is the way it is made into rolls. Then these rolls are spun into fine strands. Let's walk over here."

Till YOUNG FLAPPIILS Knowledge is the golden key That will forever set you free. . -Old Mother Nature The buzzard twins sat on the edge of a rocky ledge over in the Green Forest. They were al- most as big as father and mother. Every now and then they stretch- ed their big wing. Perched on a limb of a dead tree a little way off were Ol' Miatah Buzzard and ...?-:-m:--:-:-?-- rolls of wool. only these were blue. Hundreds of little sticks. that looked a bit like spools. were on a big frame that moved in. and out. As it moved the yarn stretched finer and finer as it wound itself on the whirling spools. "That yarn is being spun now for mittens and sweaters." said Mrs. Page. They walked a while longer. then went up the steep, narrow stairs. "I'd like a pound of brown yarn. please." said Mrs. Page. "Thatis for my mittens,” Lau- rie said to the smiling man who waited on them. "They'll keep your finizers warm.” he answered in a jolly wa

"Yes, they are lovely,” agreed- his mother. "But come along now for we must go. Good-bye." and they started out again. -

"That is a wonderful place," said Laurie when they got nut on the street again." I'm glad I went there. Now I know how the wool is made into yarn. When I wear my new brown mittens I'll remember all the people who helped make the yarn to keep my hands warm. And I'll. remember the. baa baa sheep that gave its wooly coat to make the wool."

Mrs. Buzzard. Ol' Mistah Buzzard wasn't really old. Perhaps it was because he was bald-headed that he was called 01' Mistah Buuard.

"It is high time those youngsters took to the air.” said 01' Mistah Buzzard. "What do they think they have those big wings for?"

”They'll find out soon enough." said Mrs. Buzzard. "I never saw children grow as they have grown. Just look at those wings."

The twins on the edge of the rocky ledge were flapping their wings, and pretending they were going to take off. One of them lost his balance and tipped forward He flopped his wings frantically trying to get back on that ledge it was of no use. He tumbled off Then he flapped his wings harder than ever, and he made a. wonder- ful discovery. Those wings were keeping him from falling. He was flying! It was a clumsy flight, but he was flying and that was keep- ing him from falling. He headed for a tree down below. He landed on a branch. and the instant. he touched that branch his toes seem- ed to grab it and hold on of their own accord. For a moment or two he had hard work getting his balance. and it. looked as if he might topple over and fall. He didn't, and when he was sure he wasn't. going to fall he was one of the most excited young buzzards

ey were of him. ”

Up above on the edge of the rocky ledge his twin sister was hopping along and trying to make up her mind to jump off. First she hop- ped along this way. Then ahe hop- ped along that way. All the time she was flapplnz her wings. Now and then they would lift her up.in the air just a little bit. but only for an instant.

"Come on over. 1'lylng'e oalyl" screamed ,her twin brother from the tree down below. '

Mother flew over and loined her or?" the ledge. "Just spread your w gs and Jump off. Then flap them. That's all there is to it. Just try it, my dear. You won't fall. As long as you flap your. wings, you won't fall. Come on. my dear, follow me,” urged .mother. and she sailed out and across to that tree where the ,other one was.

or Mistah Buuard flew overto the ledge. He lighted a little way from the young buuard. then awk- wardly hopped along until he was so close, that when she lifted her wings to flap. one of them hit him. It upset her, and she tumbl- ed off the ledge. Of couree she tlapped her wings as hard as ever she could. It was awkward flap- ping, but it kept her in the air. Such an excited screaming as there was then! She didn't know where she was going. She was on her way. but that was all she knew. When she finally landed. it was on the ground a little way from the tree in which her brother was perched.
