One little bird was winging
round, about two feet up off the
ground. The mother eagle seemed
quite pleased and gaily tapped her
wings.
"Don't worry" Quincy said, "I'll
teach them all to fly. Then you

With school season starting, mo-

Wise mothers have learned that
these lunches must be as tempting

thrown away, after the sugar or
jelly had been licked off.
This week marks the second anni-
