CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Carl Captures the Witch


 King Harald had no sooner spoken to his pipe than one of the little wooden figures carved on the bowl stepped out onto his hand. It was the figure of the farmer.
 He walked across the Kings hand and said, T remember that witch and what the farmers did to her a hundred years ago. But it takes a brave man."
 Tell me" said the King.
 'In the day time she sleeps in d bats nest said the tiny farmer. If some one can bind her ankles with green wheat leaf she will do what she is told when she wakes. But the man must be- ware. She sleeps lightly, and if she wakes and looks into his eyes before the wheat is tied the man will be blind.'
 We must hurry to send out that news" said the King. Some one can catch Carl. He must be deep into the next kingdom by now"
 In half an hour a hundred of the Kings soldiers were on their way. They had been told to cover every road leading from Harald's kingdom into the next realm and to bring the news to Carl.
 They didn't find him. But they

Long a1ter Une stars had come up Carl and Santa crept into the barns loft and found the nest in which the little witch was sleep ing. Santa began to play tunes on his pipe. so sweetly that dozens of night butterflies flew in and danced about his head. The tiny witch stirred in her sleep, smiled, and then snuggled down to a very deep sleep.
 Carl watched, and when he saw that, he took green wheat leaf from his pocket, fashioned it into a slip-knot, and in a flash he had it tied tightly about the witch's ankles.
 That walked the witch She tried to jump to her feet, but She stum- bled. Then she hung her head and said, Lead me-
 But Carl wanted to be sure she wasn't acting. He had closed his eyes tightly when she wakened, and he kept them closed but he said, sharply, Take off your shoes He heard her rustic around and take them off.

At that very moment Carl was riding into the castle gates after he had failed to shoot the witch. He was delighted with the story of the wheat leaf But Carl seemed so young the King was reluctant to send him in pursuit of the witch. So he chose an older man. named Helmer. Carl was disap- pointed, but he waited to see what Helmer's adventures would be. By sunset Helmer returned. He had tried, but he was blind.
 Then the King turned to Carl and said, My friend, King Har- aid cherishes you. But since you still wish to try your luck I shall consent because this disaster can harm not only us but King Har- ald."
 T will succeed" said Carl
 He planned to go alone, but Santa insisted on going with him. They rode back to the burning wheat fields, and there they met a group of excited farmers who volunteered to point out the barn where the witch was thought to sleep in a bats nest.
 When the farmers were gone Santa whispered to Carl, Its plain you can't do what the last man did. I have an idea. have a small pipe which plays very sweet tunes. When we find the witch asleep I'll play on the pipe, and

ROUGH GUY
But after one minute Of fighting.
the crowd realized il was watching
a rough, tough young man-per-
feetly conditioned and out to win.
In that very first minute of
this thrilling, slam-bang bat
tie, Under-Dog Cochrane re-
yealed that he and his shrewd
handlers had mapped out
double barreled combination
that might beat the champion.
The combination was this:

his illegal speciality of getting a

rane into right handed punches,
Mr.. COchrane- smaller and lighter

up and butted Zivic right in the
/ face.
~ Cochrane kept throwing left
hooks into Ziv1c's ultra-tender belly
every time Zivic tried to get set to
launch his smashing straight right
to the head.
The peak of back-alley brawling
was reached in the fourth round.
when Cochrane, damned sore be-
cause he got lot of thumbs in
his eye, wound up and drove
left hook into Zivic's groin. Ref
