In about three days after hatch- ing the yolk sack is absorbed and the young fry swim freely about looking for food. You can talk all you like about T.

Paddy and Mrs. Paddy had watched the water rise. and rise, and rise, in their little pond deep in the Green Forest. They had watched it creep up, and. creep up, and creep up. on the roof of their house until now it all but covered that house. They were sitting on the roof because there was no other place for them to sit. The water was pouring over their dam along it's full length. Their little pond really was a big pond now. If the wat- er kept on rising. they would soon have to leave the roof on which they were sitting. They would have to swim ashore. and they knew that at least three hungry hunters were prowling around on the shore waiting for them. They were Yowler the Bob- cat, Old Man Coyote and Buster Bear. They could feel the house shake under them. It was a well built house, but now the water was coming down into their little pond with such force that. it was weakening the wells of that house. Inside their big comfortable liv- ing room was filled with wafer from floor to ceiling. They were completely flooded out. They could go in there hecnus they can swim under water. but they could stay only as long as they could hold their breath. So of course there was nothing for them to go in for now. Part of their food pile had been washed away. That didn't trouble them too much. because with this high wat- er they could swim to some food trees that before the flood had been too far from the water for them to dare to try to cut them. "Look!" cried Paddy. Mrs. Paddy looked the way Pad- dy was looking. Coming down on the swift current was a big log. It rolled over and over as it came. It was coming fast. It was a heavy log. It was mostly under water. What would hap- pen when it hit the dam? Would the dam stop it? The current was running very strong straight through the pond. Paddy and Mrs. Paddy watched that log pass the roof to which they were clinging and head straight for the darn. it hit the top edge. They saw the dam break away at that point. and the water began to rush through the break. But the log didn't go 000 used cars. . ering the industrial giant: 74 per That was because of that break pie bought 5.000.000 new and 8,000,- Here are a few more facts cov- cent of all the passenger cars in the world are in the United States.

It caught. and turned sideways. Thus it helped partly to block the hole it had made in the dam. The water did not rush out as fast as it would have done otherwise. Almost at once Paddy and Mrs. Paddy made a discovery. The water that had been rising so steadily for so long had stopped rising. Yes. sir. it had stopped rising. A few minutes later it be- gan to do just the other thing. Slowly, very. very slowly. it be- gan to go down, instead of rising. in the dam. KIDN EYACID5 Rob your Rest. .
