ice, many miles long and very, very
wide. Now this river Of ice moved
like other rivers, but only one inch
each year. 1t went so slowly that not
even the animals knew it was moving,
and when 1t came down TO the sea,
like other rivers, it broke off in great
pieces. larger than the largest house.
When these great pieces OF Ice came
splashing into the water they made
such noise that the polar bear, who
had been down to the shore to catch
a fish went scampcring home thinking
he heard thunder.
one of the pieces of ice that broke
from the end of the frozen river was
smaller than the rest and fioated away
fastest with its bright peak glistening
in the sunlight.
"Ho-ho," it laughed. This is much
better than being Il part of the great
frozen river. Now l shall sail to the
south and turn into water again"
SO it noated and hoated until 1t
heard someone call, please give us
a ride, Mr.. Iceberg"
"All right; climb on" It said as 1t
turned to see two little seals that were
winning nearby. 1t was the first
me il had ever been called mister"
IA it was proud to think that it was
rcally truly iceberg, although but a
lc one.
Where do you want to go?" it
ed the seals.
I'VE want to find our mamma" they
Il. 1--WE were playing and got lost.
nc is in the south somewhere-not
p. But you must not melt until we
@ her"
The little Iceberg promised to do its
EST and away it sailed with the two
rtlo seals cuddlcd up on its back with
heir big brown eyes watching ever
o carefully for their mamma.
"Oh, | do hope Mr. Iceberg won't
melt very soon" said one of the little
seals but the iceberg only laughed to
itself. for it knew that it was seven
times as large under the water as 1t
was above, and stored for the place
where it had heard there were many
| seals
pretty soon the little seals saw their
mamma, and what splashing they
made in the water when they thanked
the iceberg and went Hopping off to
join her.
ct is nice. after ALL to be an Ice
berg" II said when 1t saw the seals
were so happy, And now maybe |
can do one moro good turn before l
mott" Then it sailed on for many
miles. and the farther it went the
smaller it got,
one day when just little peak
was shining above the green waves. II
saw great ship with bands playing
and many people sitting on the decks.

his white beard began to disappear
Before Patsy could wink an eye, there
stood young prince instead of an
old man.
THANK you very much for finding
me- said the Prince. "Do you think
you can take me back to the castle? ?"
perhaps | can carry you, If you'll
climb on my hand" Patsy suggested.
The Prince agreed and soon Patsy
had turned back to the page made of
stone. She put the Prince down just
outside of the garden window. Quickly
he jumped through into the room. AS
he did so the stone began to grow
soft and light The page became only
a niece of paper instead of a stone,
and out walked the Prince and Prin-
cess into the garden. Patsy could see
that they were very happy. Then the
page began to grow dim and she re-
membcrcd that she had promised to
go back and see tho old witch.
