ANOTHER GIANT STORY,

One time there was giant bold
Who made tho blood OF men run cold
His eyes we're big his hands were
strong,
His hair was coarse ana tough ana
long
And every time he'd quit his cave
He'd give a shout and then he'd wave
His arms, and folks would run In fear,
Afraid to death TO venture near.
Now In the village down below
The mountain capped with leo ana
snow,
Whore this old giant lived. the men
Had planned 10 kin him In HIS den,
But always every PLAN went wrong.
They said tho giant was foo strong
And nobody could ever hope
With such a fearful thing 10 cope.
This giants name was Trouble, and
lie scattered grief turnout the land.
Whcneer man with downcast head
Went by tina neiRhbors always said:
"Old TroubleA after him. bet,
And all that no can do rs fret
And stew and worry and complain
And hope for Joy to come again"
One. day brave young man named
Sack
Eaoiared he'd drive old Trouble back.
I'm going to tackle him." said he,
"And show him he can't bully mel

To frlRhten people round about,
Jack walked right w to him and said;
you're not NO big as people said.
They've told me you were Fearful

I'll say that. from distance you
Are something terrible to view,
Bur us | get up close, ] think
In some way that YOU seem To shrink.
lie made q lunge 10 grab hts beard,
And then Old Trouble disappeared.
And ever after that folks knew
Whenever Trouble came In view
That he would be the first to quit
IL they would only show their grit,
And II they'd buckle IN and fight
The giant soon would take To flight,
Ana now I've told you what to do
Whenever Trouble comes 10 you.
