posed the music The incidental pieces for
KONG Stephan" consisted Of an overture,
two choruses for mixed voices, a trium-

The King Stephan who was celebrated in

Under his reign Christianity was embraced
by the Masyars and the savage raids on

in the basket and wondered what was
going 70 happen next They had not long

picked up their basket and started fer fresh
streams.

for more frogs.

asleep on log IN the SUM- and Selling
the crab net they approached. But just as
they had almost caught him he woke and
splashed into the depths OF the pool The
boys made a desperate strike at him with
the crab net, and in doing so they upset
the basket containing the two frogs into
the water. Of flew the cover and into the
pool tumbled Bill and Jack, highly aston
ished but very glad to be back in the
water again.
The boys. however, were so Disguised
with the way their frogging party had
turned out that they picked up their empty
basket and went home determined to spend
the rest OF the afternoon fishing.
When the last sounds Of their footsteps
had died away the two frogs poked their
noses out Of the water. but it was some
time before they thought ii safe to do
more than that. At last, however, they
ventured out and cautiously hoped home
where they were greeted with amazement
and delight by the rest OF the frogs
From that day on, instead ef keeping away
from each other Bill kept Jack out Of
mischief, and Jack kept Bill from being
dull and they were happier than ever
and came 10 regard their nlisadveature as
the beginning Of all good things.
