By Bradford X. Daniels

TT was midsummer in Western By Bradfor
i Washington, and rain had
fallen in six weeks Taking compass
sion upon my parched garden, went out into the
bright sunshine noon to water it, using finely
perforated round nozzle which threw bushlike
spray
Almost before the first drops had reached the
ground hummingbird darted out from a nearby
appletree, lowered for moment in the outskirts of
the shower its ridescent back showing doubly beau
tfu through the rainbow-tinted mist, and then
plunged boldly in only to be swept away twenty
feet by the force of the water. Nothing daunted,
however the little fellow returned and plunged in
again and again, until apparently wearied he how
cred at side and thrust out his long needlelike
tongue toward the cleaning myriads of drops.
Forgetting for the moment that the hummngbird
is not nsectivorous, concluded that the tiny Great
attracted by the brilliant color display mis-
taking the bright drops for flies and when he perched
the tip of an apple tree branch nearby | turned
the shower upon him, expecting to see him dart out
in pursuit of one of the deceiving drops. To my
prise however, he chung to the branch Tapping his
tiny wings spreading and flirting his tail, and preen
ing his feathers in ecstasy of delight After six
weeks of dry weather, he evidently feeling sthe
need of bath, and here ideal opportunity to
wash and be clean.

that the branch swayed to and fro:
but as the water increased he APP
peared all the more delighted, flirting his wings
and tail and ducking and wrigglng his head as if
drunk with joy.
Presently | turned the shower aside; but SO alb
sorbed was he in the fun that he kept up his gym
nastcs for sometime before he noticed that the

only to be swept ruthlessly away before Retiring
to the tree he began to drink the shining drops that
adhered to the leaves, shooting his tongue into each
with unerrring AIM
Then, if tempting me- he perched upon the
nearest twg, moving his faultessly chiseled head up
and down with the knowing air characteristic Of
hurnmngbirds when at rest, as much as to say, = I'm
ready for some more"
/ gave him some more and for time he struggled
manfuy flap his wings and firt his tail usual;
but the force and volume of the water proved too
great to permit that phase of the luxury, he
kept wings and tail close furled and chung to the
twig the water running in rivulets from his glossy
back.
l was beginning to wonder whether he would be
foolish enough to stay there till he drowned when he
futtered awkwardly away, SO water logged that he
almost dropped to the ground, and could not despite
his best efforts rise any higher than the clunp of
brakes into which he disappeared.

Course, Sadie didn't let me get away with any

explained how this was my own private machine,
that I'd bought all by myself and meant to back

As said over the lesson went through the mo-

machine begins movin right under me- l chokes
down gasp, bugs my eyes out, and takes death
grip on that steern' wheel First we does dive to
the right then swoop to the left, like pink sea-
Easy, easy" says Stat, kind of soothin' This
is no serpentine course. Whirl it gently. And
don't hold it hard; it won't get away from you.
Little more gas now That's it! You're doing
fine"
Maybe was; but every and muscle in

thought the drive had good deal of width to it;
but just then it looks footpath.
Say amt there some hundred-acre parade ground
handy where can finish this lesson?" says l. IL
don't want to mar the scenery any along here.
oh you're all right, says Stat. Throttle down
for this down grade
Instead of throttln' down, though must have
hill if roller coaster. But Stat reaches
and slows her down just in time to let round
a two wheels
Now let's see you stop just beyond that tree"
says he.
Wha-a-at?" says l.
Stop her" says he: You're going to run
into wagon! Now stop!"
SAY, we stopped, all right grabbed all the levers
~ could at once and damned down on all the foot
pedals could find. Oh yes we stopped come
near keepin right over the dash; but the wheel
caught me in the bread basket and set back solid
with my wind gone. Slat must have been lookin for
some such act for he had his feet braced.
"Fine!' says he real sarcastic Especially for
the tires You We killed your engine too"
The blamed thing got what it deserved, then,'
says l.
Crank up and try that again. says Stat, "only
do it this time the way told you.
So gets out and begins turnin the front handle.
Say, notice how easy most of them shutters
whrl that thing? Well I've got some little right
ginger myself; but sure red in the face by the
time I'd given the crank three four turns, and all
that comes from the machine is kind of low, hollow
cough, like it in the last stages.
Perhaps you d have better luck if you turned on
your spark first, says Stat, sprngin his grin me.
All, sayi" says l. What humorous kid you
are!"
But pushes the button, and with another
turn had her hummin'. Next time he told me to
make the stop did it more careful; but at that l
must have missed something, for just we fetches
up less gentle the engine goes out of business
again.
Whats your right foot doing on that pedal?"
says Stat. Il thought l told you three times how
to"
Il know says l. I've got brain like cup
custard."
Ever have to put your tail down like that and own
up what thick thatch you've got? Honest, if I'd
been a school kid bein lacked up for forgettn his
lesson, couldn't have felt any cheaper And
bodyI ever guess how much wanted to quit the
game. But couldn't.
If you know what to do" Stat goes on, why in
thunder don't you"
Its this way, Stat, says l. MY head knows it;
