!. THE KING CLIMBS THE CORN STALK

While Tinker Bob was climbing to
the roof Of the palace, the corn stalk
grew and grew till the leaves shaded
the whole roof and the top was far
above the roof. He could not see the
nest that Red Ant had told about be-
cause it was too ar away from him.
There was only one thing to do, and
that was to climb the stalk to the top
where the nest was.
Tinker remembered tho bean stalk
that grew and grew till it was tho
largest stalk in the world, but he had
never heard about such a large corn
stalk as this one was. He caught
hold OF The stalk and started to climb,
and before he could get a good start
the stalk grew and lifted him far
above the roof Of the palace.
He climbed and climbed but all the
time the stalk grew faster than he
could climb. After a long time Of
climbing he became tired, and he saw
that he was losing instead of gaining.
The stalk was now taller than some
of the great trees Of the Forest.
There was only one thing to do and
that was to tap the Stone Of Knowl-
edge and call to his assistance the
Wonderful Creature Of his Desire. He
Creature arrived at once with the big
basket, and Tinker Bob climbed in.
There was no corn stalk that ever
grew that could get ahead OF the
Creature with the wonderful basket,
This was the only way to see the
top of the cor stalk. The tassel had
grown as large as the top OF a tree
and in the very top was a beautiful
nest, and nearby were two creatures
that he had not seen before this year
OF course they could not see Tinker
Bob. They were talking something
like this: Sphinx. spank. sphinx, W.
surely had a good feast in the rice
fields, didn't We? The other on
answered. "Yes, we did. but it nearly
cost me my life for l was caught II
a trap"
The other creature acted surprised
to think of such a thing: "Spink
spank, sphinx, I never knew there wer'
any traps in the. rice fields"
