ANE Of the jobs that Ted and
Helen did every fall was to clean
up the garden and make the yard
" tidy for its long winter rest. That
meant raking the lawn and sweeping
the walks and putting the extra leaves
over the flower beds, where they could
rot during the winter and enrich the
soil. All the sticks and papers and
other trash were piled in a great pile
by the garden wall and there. when
every other job was finished, the chill
dren made bonfire and celebrated
the end of their autumn job.
But this winter old Jack Frost
played them a joke. The very day
after the work was all. finished, the
very morning OF the day when the
bonfire was to be lighted. old Jack
Frost kicked up a great storm-snow
and wind and blizzard. Nobody would
dare light fire such a day even II
they were bold enough to care to stay
out of doors to watch one burn. And
that fall Of snow stayed on the ground
so long, covering the lawn and flower
beds alike with It's blanket Of white,
that Ted and Helen forgot all about
the trash pile that was to have been
burned up.
Then one bright morning in the
middle Of the winter, the sun beamed
warm and the wind from the South
land blew. And every trace of the
piled up snow vanished. Just like a
pan full of snow that's been taken

| lack half inch of being that long, but
that would be all. Why. we are so tall
that when we travel around with cir
made for US. with holes in the roof
cuses, they have to have special cars
for our heads to go through, when we
felt like Strengthening out. And when
the little children come to see us in
the menagerie tent, they have to lean
way back when they look up at US. just
like they do when looking at the flag
on skyscraper. In fact, we have
been called the "skyscrapers Of the
veldt," veldt you know, is the African
word for the open country where we
live. For there is where the acacias
grow, and We always feel safer there
than in the forests. as we can see all
around for ever so far, and If an enemy
appears, we can run away and hide IN
the thick forest. We can go at full
speed right through the thorny jungle.
and never get a scratch as our skins
are thick and tough. But man at
tempting to follow US. would have MS
clothes torn into ribbons, and his flesh
scratched in a thousand places. W.
have no means of defense, and when
danger comes, the only thing we can
do is to run, and that Is one thing we
certainly can do.
The next time you see one OF our
folks in a menagerie. looking away
over the heads of the people, with
dreamy, far-away expression, you may
know it Is thinking of its distant home
on the continent they call Dark, and
wishing it was back where the acacias
grow, and where ill-smel!ing. stuffy
houses, and iron barred cages are
never heard Of.
