ROBINS SPRING CONCERT.

about it for days ahead that thcy can
talk about nothing else"

mornings when I've been awake very
early"
Nick laughed hard at that, for he
didn't think Nancy ever woke up very
early. He did now and then when he
went off on fishing trips with DADDY
but such trips were very few, and or
the whole, he thought, the early morn
ing was a pretty nice time to sleep.
Well" said Daddy, they may have

Why7

Why does the sound of bell cease
when you touch 1t? Because sound is
due to waves in the air which strike
the drum of the ear. When a bell or
gong is struck it vibrates and produces
waves in the air that reach the ear.
When you touch the bell the vibration
is stopped and there are no more sound
waves.
