I reckoned I'd not be so green If I'd just use my eyes, and Jimmy, who's my closest pal and went along, said he was kinda green himself and in the selfsame fix ns

me. And so we kinda stuck around ' ad helped each other out, and wasn't long before we felt we knew our way about. , Well, one day Jim says. "Looky here does it occur to you that some day you might lose your way, and then what would you do? Such things do happen, Herb, you know; you might Just get astray and leave the bunch, and then first thing you know you've lost your way. It makes me feel so shaky-like to think of it at all."

Says I, "That's not so very bad. j We'll just arrange a call, uemema . 1 .1 . . i . . i . t vit-nu lk I'd! 'I and how that guy namea iouipkhi.i and his brainy pal arranged a birdlike cry? An owl it was; you recollect? The notes could carry far; now if you'd use a thing like that, I'd find out where you are." "A swell idea!" says Jim to me, "and kind of thrilling, too a secret call twixt you and me that hoot owl cry will do. And if you're lost I'll hunt for you and call for you .ill day. The gang won't need to know you're green enough to lose your way. , Two days from then the very thing we'd talked of came to be. As luck would have it, why, of course, the one that strayed was me. Twas Mmot dark when I was sure I'd lost my way to camp. I s'at down on a mossy stump, all worn out from' tho tramp. My head sunk down dejected-like and then I heard an owl. I knew that Jim i had kept his wor,d; I gave a joyous howl and started running toward the place from where the "Hooting" came; but somehow seemed as though the spot was never quite the same. Now here, now there; now far, now "near, I heard him calling me, and I returned the cry till 1 was hoarse as I could be. I kept a-run-ning back and forth, It came from all around. At last I couldn't stand at all; I sank to the ground. And then I saw a little light come , gleaming through the trees, and there was Mr. Williameon and Jimmy, if you please! "I thought we'd never find you, Herb," says I Jim, "because you see, when we fixed up that signal stuff I never thought you'd be so thoughtless as to lose, tho bunch at night instead of day and give those nervy owls a cluuice to mix us up that way."

Associated Editors) The Little Black Lamb There are twenty white lambs in the meadow at play And one little black lamb, too; Although he is younger and smaller than they. He is leader in all that they do. Behind him they race in the ruts straight and deep, That by heavy farm wagons are made, And they heed not the calls of the big mother sheep To return and lie down in tha shade. Then over a ditch, and the mosscovered stump, Where once stood a sycamore tree. First the little black lamb, then the others will jump, But none are as nimble as he. He searches the meadows for young grass to cat, And clover leaves as they unfold, And treads on the daisies with little black feet, And scatters the buttercups' gold. Oh, little black lamb, full of mischief and glee, You frolic the livelong day! wish you were mine, and could come home with me In the orchard what games wo could play. Christian Science Monitor.
