BROOK BY MAX TRELL Knarf and Hanid, the Shadows with the turned-about names, looked at the little pond at the foot of the hill where their friend Ting-a-Ling lived and they both asked Ting-a-Ling whether it had a name. Ting smiled and nodded. "It has indeed, my dears." 1 muse a lovely: name," said Hanid, "because it's really a lovely pond." "The top is almost all covered with white waterdlilies;" said Knaif. "Is it cahed White Water Lily Pond?" Different Name "No, my dears. It has a differ- ent name, It has a rather strange name for a pond. It's called Tired- Litfle Brook That Stayed To Rest." Knarf and agreed that this name for a pond Hanid promptly was a strange "Why is it called that?" asked | Hanid. "It's a long stor Knarf and Hanid begged Ting- a-Ling to tell them the story, for they were curious to know how the pond got its name. "Well," said Ting-a-Ling, "it happened a long, long time ago. At the place where vou see the pond now there was a pleasant meadow, filled with daisies and buttercups and grass and an oak tree. The meadow lay between two high hills, which shaded and protected it. But there was one thing more in that meadow." Ting-a-Ling paused and his face grew a little sad. "The other thing in that plea- Sant meadow was a brook. But, alas, this little brook was not like most brooks. Most brooks are bright and cheerful. They run 'and they play, they chuckle and gur- gle, they shine and they sparkle But this brook didn't do-any of those things. It hardly ran at all. It never seemed to play. As for chuckling and gurgling and shin- ing and sparkling, it seemed to ROOFING NICHOL'S ROOFING New roofs & Old roofs applied Insul-Bric siding & Asbetos siding Insulation Materials Eaves Troughing Materials supplied & sold Peter P.

It sighed, it sobbed and Its water seemed to avoid the sunshine. "The daisies and buttercups and the blades of grass nodded to each other and said, "How sad our little brook is!" Then they whispered = to the two old hills that stood on either side of the meadow: "What can we do to make our brook cheerful?" But the two old hills didn't know. "Then the old Oak looked down at the little brook that flowed close to his roots and asked: "What ails you, little one?" But the brook did mot answer. In the Oak Tree "Then the birds who had built their' nests in the oak tree, and the chipmunks and mice that liv- ed in the hills, and the bees tha came to the buttercups and dais- ies for honey, all spoke to the brook. But none of them could find out what ailed it. Then fin- ally the wind that had known the brook for years and years and years whispered the reason as it blew over the meadow. "Once," said the wind, "the brook was wide and merry. But now it is old and tired " "Of course," Ting-a-Ling went on, "everyone in the meadow wanted to do something. The chip munks and the mice thought the brook could be pushed. The birds thought that they could help carry some of the water. But none of this helped until the two old hills - put their heads together and decided what to do. What they did was very simple and, af- ter they did it, everyone else won- dered why no one had thought of this scheme before. Knarf and Hanid waited pa- tiently for Ting-a-Ling to tell them what the two old hills did to help the tired little brook. "The two old hills," TingaLing continued, after along pause, "simply moved themselves in front of the brook and stopped it from flowing. "Now you must rest, tle brook. they said. "Now you must stay in the meadow and rest." "Oh, how glad the little brook was to rest! It nestled against the two old hills, with the old Oak on one side and the daisies and but- tercups and grass on the other. Bigger and bigger--stronger and stronger--wider and wider it be- came. And soon it filled the whole middle of the meadow! How it shone and sparkled! And little by little, instead of being Thursday, November 2, 195 a brook any more, it grew to , a pond, covered With white ter-lilies!
