"Just look at you! You're cover- ed with mud! What haye you been doing? Knarf smiled. His face was caked with mud. It made his teeth and his eyes seem whiter than usual. "I was taking a swim- ming lesson," he said. Hanid wanted to know all about this, so Knarf sat down on al stone, scraped some of the mud off his legs and said: "I was walking down the road when all of sudden I heard a lot of noise. The noise came from just behind the blackberry bushes, not from the brook. Well, 1 ran right over." "And what was there?" asked Hand. "A whole crowd of bugs and beetles." "What were they doing?" Han- id asked impatiently. "They were all crowded around a sort of pool. You see, the brook had overflowed a little, and all the water had gone into a ditch. It was like a little lake. There was a fallen log on one side and a big flat rock on the other, and The Beetles watched their teacher carefully one of the blackberry bushes was standing in the middle of it like an island. All | the beetles were shouting that they were going in for a swim!" "I never heard beetles shout," said Hanid, "and I don't think beetles like to swim, either." Knarf said: "Oh, they were shouting all right. You could hear them from one end of the nool to the other. Yes, they all wanted to swim. But they didn't know how. So they all asked me if T would teach them. I told them I couldn't swim very well myself. Then, at that moment, a frog came hopping by." "Frogs do swim!" said Hanid. Beetles Took Swimming Lessons :| they dive out again. "Of course. And they dive, too. They dive into the water and They all asked the frog if he would teach them to swim. I asked the frog too. At first he didn't want to do it." gz "Why not?" asked Hanid. "He said the pool wasn't deep enough for good swimming. But all the beetles shouted--and '1 shouted with them, that it was better for the pool not to be deep, because then none of us would drown." "That's a very good idea," said Hanid. "So the frog said, all right, he would show them how to jump into the water. He hopped up to the top of the fallen log and sprang into the air, quite high up. Then he turned and went diving into the water. We all watched very carefully." "And what happened?" "Nothing," said Knarf. "Nothing! What do you mean!" "The frog," said Knarf, "just stuck in the mud at the bottom of the pool. You could see his legs sticking out of the water, but you couldn't see his head. He kicked his legs up and down quite a lot. Finally all the beet- les ran away. They decided all of a sudden that the frog was right. The pool wasn't deep enough. So I jumped in and pulled the frog out." "And is that how you got your- self covered with mud?' said Hanid. "That's how," replied Knarf. And Hanid looked at her bro- ther with pride. "You saved the frog's life! I'm glad you didn't mind getting a little muddy." SEEK INFORMATION Agricultural vocational schools from many of the north-central states will send excursions to the C.N.E. again this year.

IF YOU' NEED A PERSONAL LOAN THINK OF "MY BANK" FIRST B of M Personal Loans Cost Ys of 1 Per Cent a Month There are times of emergency or sudden opportunity when you need cash in a hurry. And you may find that paying cash for a big job or purchase is much more convenient and enconomical than buying by bits and pieces. Your best plan then is to pay a call on Stan Otton, manager of the Bank of Montreal in Oakville, and talk to him about a personal loan. These B of M Personal Loans are low-cost, 6 per cent per an- num, and 'you pay interest only on what yousstill owe. If you borrow $100, and repay over a year in monthly instalments, it will cost you month. The interest on other amounts is in proportion. If you have a regular income and are in a position to repay, there is money for you at the B of M. Mr. Otton will always be happy to talk over any financial problems you may have--in com- plete confidence, of course. Lend- ing money is his business, and he deals with all comers accord- ing to the bank's guiding prin- ciple: "When you ask for a loan at the B of | M, you do not ask a fayour."
