And Pa he thinkers with the discs to

there's nothing yet to hear.
Oh, now it's coming! Silence there!
Now don't you move a thing.
Say Ma, this is a marvellous age, a

Then Ma she listens for a while, as
pleased Is she can be
And when 1 want to ear it, too, she
says, Don't bother me!
Your turn comes next and sisters,
too; don't jump around that
way.
1 want to hear the orchestra-it's just
begun to play.
I wish o children wouldn't fuss,
I'm sure I cannot hear
While you are trying all the time to
snatch it from my ear"
Then Pa takes up the thing awhile,
and says: ooh. that's just
great!
A man is telling stories now. You
kid will nave to wait.
It's wonderful to think his voice is
floating in the air,
And people sitting in their homes can
hear it everywhere
All right, all right! Its your turn
now Perhaps this man will
teach
You, youngsters how you should be-
have. A parsons going to

Pa put that radio in for meat least

Coz Pa he wants it all himself, to

Mr.. MASON, IN THE EARTH.

Tinker Bob was resting on the
ground while Little Tim and Silky
went to the river for a drink. But
you can be sure that our friend wasn't
DIE. There are SO many things to see
TO learn that he could never afford
70 40 nothing. or course Silky liked
King, but not so with Tinker.
tinker Bob wanted to know every
thing that was going on about him.
presently he saw something open like.
q door In the earth. 1t was very
small, not much larger than a dime,
and just as round. 1t was on the side
tt a slope where the earth was smooth.
anu swung on a hinge. Some creature
seemed to be opening it. II. surely was
different from anything the King had
ever seen before.
L wonder who that is trying to
open the door?" he said to himself.
Then he tried to assist matters by lift
ing the door UP but the invisible being
changed its attitude. The ONE it
telt n touch of a strange land on
the outside of the door it didn't want
it opened n pulled it shut.
|, That's funny" said Tinker. There
ne was trying to help this strange
little creature out Of it's house in the
earth and it wanted to stay in. Finally
ne decided to open the door anyway.
so he found a sharp stick and pryed
1t open. which was no easy task for
the little creature held it tight shut.
TO his surprise, when the door
opened Tinker Bob could see nothing
but a deep hole in the earth. This
hole must have been at least two feet
deep, and it was just as round as q
dime could be and lined with the
softest silk imaginable. In fact the
hinge of the door was made of silk,
and the door itself was made of a
combination of silk and earth. The
King looked back into the hole as far
as he could but no one was in sight.
Come on out of there" he
shouted. II will not hurt you. I am
the King of the Forest and I want to
see who you are"
