And what coyld an aeroplanes do with hay?" "I'm gure 1 don't know," ililda. "Don't worry about it, one. Let's talk about what think hell bring us for presents." The two girls chattered on as they helped Julianna's mother clean up the room for the visit of St Nicholas. That night all the family merrily gathered aroynd in the best room. __Suddenly /the 'door opened and in walked the good Saint, dressed in his fine robes.

This Is the fifth lesson. Another one next week. Juggling Long Objects Around one end of a pi€ce of broom- stick two feet long, wrap a" strip of ead sheeting two inches. wide and six richgs in length. Or, instead of lead, a jopger strip of tin may be used. Wrap the metal tightly, and to help hold it in place and to serve as a protection for your hands, . wrap it with tire tape. This metal weights one end of. the stick. Grip the light end with your right hand, or, if you are left-handed, with your left hand. Hold the stick out with your elbow well bent and plac- ed naturally and not stiffly against your body. (Figure 1) Make Half Turn With a sharp flip of the wrist, toss the stick into the air so that- tht welghted end comes towards .you. Use only enough force to make the stick take a half turn. Catch "the weighted 'end. Repeat the toss a number of times with both hands to accustom yourself with the amount of force necessary to give the stick a half turn. Then try the full- turn. The stick is tossed in the same manner. extept that it has more force behind it and goes higher 'into the alr so that it may make a full turn before being caught. Catch the light end of the stick. You will observe that the stick revolves around the weighted How To WE GT te, STC -- Ra A FIG. a | 1 Se" ways supply the force from the wrist, and not the whole forearm. The next step consists of tossing the stick from one hand to the other in an arc, making it take a full or double turn in the air. This is easily done. Try it with a long pencil (Figure 2). Prepare another stick. This done, vou are ready for a fancy trick-- the crossing of two sticks from hand to hand. Crossing Two Sticks Hold a stick in each hand. Toss the right-hand stick up first, making it take a turn toward the left. When it is in mid-air, toss up the left-hand |s*ik, making It take the same num- ber of turns toward the right. It must cross the course of the first stick underneath. (Figure 3 shows the courses of the two.) Do this once and then stop. Do fit again and stop, and finally, try tq cross the sticks without hesitation, Use a good wrist movement so that you do not appear to be exerting yourself greatly. Toss .the sticks evenly. Your audience will be pleas. ed. This form of juggling is excel- lent for developing the wrist and forearm muscles. Pop bottles, Indian clubs, and even knives and forks may be juggled-in the same manner. (Figure 3 shows a boy juggling a knife and fork). I caution you to use a dull knife and to place a large cork over the point. Put a cork on the prongs of the fork, too.
