The Clockwork Twin by Walter
r. Brooks.
Adoniram r. Smith, and this
story's about him, was a boy about
your age who would never tell what
the r. in his name stood for-nev-
er. He'd just say, "Oh, it's .. silly
name and don't like it." What adj
ventures Adoniram had during a
flood, marooned on the top floor of
huge department store-Water-
man Dinklestein and Company, it
said on the sign. Just that was ex-
citing enough but being marooned
there with four talkative animals
was even better-especially when
they were George, the dog; Ron.
aid, the rooster; Jinx, the cat; and
the well known pig, Freddy the
Detective.
Their adventures here were ex-
citing but even more so were those
back on Mr.. Beans farm when
Uncle Ben made Adoniram a clock
work twin for a playmate! Amaz-
ing things happened then, but we
won't tell you what. Read them for
yourself in this book. And maybe
you'll find out about the r. in
Adoniram's name. This story is
fun.
Calico, by Ethel Calvert Phillips.
Calico was the new little black
and white pony at Rocky Farm.
He was a very mischievous little
pony, but Roxy and Oliver always
forgave him for his pranks. He had
such a merry twinkle in his eyes i!
He was a wise little pony, too. He
found Mothers gold birthday thim-
BILE. And he saved the whole Peters
family during the flood. What fun
the children had riding on Calico's
back! They had little green cart
for him to pull. And-but this Is
secret!-Calico knew how to dance
on his hind legs.
