One or these boys, who was named
Arthur, was a delicate lad, and he

the giant was not looking, watch the

him they looked like castles, and so
fond did he grow OF studying the clouds

Inns to his place on the previous even

THE CLOUD FAIRY AND THE GIANT

~ NCE upon a time there lived a
wicked old giant in the very
middle of a great forest. And
the trees grew so thick before
his door that no one could get past
them. Besides. in the woods were big
black dogs which drove away all who
ventured near.
Back Of the giants home was a tall
mountain of beautiful pink stone which
would shine at night far out over the
whole country. so that people who saw
the light would tremble at the thought
OF the bad giant who spent his life at
the foot of this pile of stone.
But he did not live alone. for he had
as his workmen in the mountain dozens
of boys that had run away from their
homes and strayed on his land. These
boys he would put to work in the
morning at the stone, and at night they
