Cir Robert was the greatest man
smong She Tiny ~grrss" people and
MS home was a Tiny palace under
the root Of some grass. nla carpets
land rugs were brightly colorcd aui-
umn leaves. his bed the SOFT down
from the cotton wood tree.
One morning he was suddenly
awakened by many small voices
calling to him from his window
They said, Come help US, Sir Rob
ert A great giant Is coming and he
will step on as" And The great giant
was only little Bobbie out for a
walk.
II little Bobbio had known he was
causing 70 much excitement and
trouble he would probably have
been more careful but because these
little grass people were 80 very.
very small he could not hear or sec
them, 80 Of course he did moi know
that he was the cause Of the awak-
oning Of Sir Robert.
As he was tired he sat down on the
grass very near The palace Of Sir
Robert and In doing 80 sat upon one
of these wee people.
A moment later he heard a wee
voice and looking down saw stand
ing on a blade Of grass a small
knight with shining mail and sword.
This was such a surprise that Bob
bic could say nothing and while he
was 80 very silent he heard the
knight Sir Robert say. Il am very
glad 10 see you, but you have fright
cned my people almost 10 death and
have sat on n Of them. You are
so very large I can not move you bu.
II you kill any more Of my people |
could say nothing and while he was
so very silent he heard the knight.
Sir Robert, say. Il am very glad 10
see you, but you have frightened
my people almost 10 death and have
sat on one OF them. You arc 80
very large I can not move you but
II you kill any more Of my people I
shall kin you with my sword.
Robbie looked at the knight la
surprise and said. Il am very sorry
| have hurt one Of your people, but
you 2 20 very small I could not see
you. | promise not 10 hurt any Of
your tiny people again II you will
let me stay here, and tell me all
about yourself"
Sir Robert asked his people II he
should let Bobbie stay and as h.
was 80 large they were afraid 10
FAY no, but they called forth Their
magician who changed Bobbie into d
small boy like themselves. Then
they formed a circle and danced
around him and had a banquet In
his honor.
Bobbie was 80 happy he did not
want 10 be a really, truly boy again
so he was adopted as the son Of Sin
Robert. for Robert was his name any

The Ghost Shin.

Among the war stories that British
naval men feel free to tell now. is one
about a ghost ship" whose mystery
has never been solved.
In 1917 a convoy of II ships left a
British port. At dawn on the day after
sailing the escort commander discover
ed thirteen ships under his charge.
While the identity Of the extra ship
was being discussed the convoy was
suddenly attacked by German light
cruisers and most of the escort and
nine of the merchantmen were sunk.
The Germans then made off.
Survivors positively assert that
there were thirteen ships and that the
mysterious vessel disappeared as
strangely as she had appeared. They
are certain that the ship was not sunk
Official inquiries failed to throw any
light on the nature Of the craft. 1t
was ascertained that she could not
have been disguised German raid
er, and her presence was logged" by
the escort commander.
