The Dragon

There is an old fairy tale about dragon three feathers
out Of whose tail would make the possessors every wish
true. But this dragon was man eater, getting
the feathers attended with no little difficulty Ths
terrible dragon also had the reputation OF being able TO
answer any question put to him.
strong young man out to get these three feathers
On his way he stopped at farmhouse When hearing
where he was going, this farmer wanted to know how
to get sweet water in his well At another place they
wanted to know something else. Near the dragons res
idence was river be forded The old ferrymanwho
carried travellers his back wanted to know now
long he was to be there to do it.
When the young man arrived the dragons place, he
met the dragons wife, who told him he would better
get, if he valued his life. He refused to go and she
promised do what she could to get the feathers tor
him. the young giant was strong and fair to look upon
When the dragon home in the evening, he said
he snaeed mans blood His wife said raven flew over
with mans bone in his bill Shortly after he had gone
to sleep that night his wife yanked feather out of
the dragons TAIL He awoke grub]ng, and asked what
was the matter. His wife said she had dream wherein
farmer wanted to know how to get sweet water in his
we'll He said Let him take the dead cat out OF it
but go to sleep and leave me in peace"
After while she pulled another feather and he awoke
with much grumbling again and asked what was the
matter She said she dreamt about the other matter.
He replied and told her to go to Sleep and not dream
any more. She pulled the third feather after while
and he yelled and said, if she dreamt any more he'd
wiring her neck. She said the old ferryman wanted TO
know how long he to ferry folks over. He said,
"Te him to drop the next he ferries in the middle
of the stream-and tell him to be sure to do it,
So in the morning the heroic young man drew his
sword and killed the dragon and left. When he was
ferred over the old wanted to know what reply he
got to his question. The young said THE next man
you ferry over dump him in the middle of the stream
and tell him to ferry" The old said, II wish you
had told me that on the other side"
WE'LL so it is with the working class Whenever they
wish to do so they can dump the incubus that they
carry-many of them unwttinglyoff their backs Sure
their backs may feel little unaccustomed and unsteady
for WHILE but what of it? The workers must develop
sufficient ambition and courage to take the next stel
in progress. Why in the world don't working peopl
grow up and behave like the important factor they
