said the Red Firecracker, spite
fully.
"Ah, WELL" said the more kind
hearted Roman Candle, "he was
young and wanted to see life. You
can't blame him."
In the meantime, Skyrocket was
rejoicing in his new surroundings.
He gloried in the music Of big
brass band nearby, and In shouts Of
children.
"Why it's getting dark" he ex-
claimed. "But then, I will show off
all the better against dark sky"
His thoughts were rudely interrupt.
ed as he felt himself fall to the
ground and heard the footsteps Of
the boy running off.
"Am I to be left here until the
rains come and beat me into the
ground?" he sighed. 'This isn't
what I was made for. I would
much rather have been left in the
shop than on this damp ground"
Long minutes passed. Then sudden
ly the voice Of Skyrocket's owner
came to him again.
It's almost sundown. Well send
it up as a salute to the Flag before
it is furled for the night. See that
tall building with the fiat tin roof
and the big flag above it? 1 am
going to send this skyrocket past
and above that flag. Watch now!"
With quick fingers the boy set the
end of the skyrocket into the
ground. Then with a piece of punk
he lit the fuse.
"Stand back, boys!" he cried.
The flame crept up the length of
the fuse. Then it touched the pow
der and-Bang! Skyrocket was off
at last on his great adventure.
Through the darkening sky he sped,
up up, and up. He met several of
his smaller relatives on the way,
who flickered at him and disap-
peared into space. Sure enough,
he was headed for that roof.
"Ah," he sighed, "at last I am to
flower into my true self. I only
wish Red Firecracker could see
me now" At that very minute
something went puff! and he ex-
ploded into a pattern of lovely red
stars which floated In the air and
there near Skyrocket was the big
Flag, waving proudly.
"Good evening"" said Skyrocket,
politely.
The flag fluttered quietly in an
swer. 1T isn't evening. If it were
I would be lowered from the stand
ard and put away. It is consid-
cred dreadful to leave a Country's
Flag up after the sun goes down.
"Oh, I'm sorry" puffed Skyrock-
ct. He hated to be caught in such
q piece Of ignorance.
As he spoke there was another
little explosion and he appeared
this time in twinkly white stars.
The flag didn't show the least bit
of alarm at the sudden changes.
He was used to skyrockets.
"Your career is short but bril-
liant" he said, 1T Is not your fault

Skyrocket was beginning to feel
