THE ORACLE 77 MY FRIEND FLICKA lContinued from Page 423 ther on behalf of her son persuaded her husband to let the boy have a horse of his own. Of all the fine stock on the ranch, Ken was to have his choice. When the boy chose a swift, wild, young, colt, whose mother was noted for stubborn- ness, Ken's father objected. He begged the boy to reconsider, but Ken, entranced by the handsome colt with the long flow- ing tail and glowing mane, was deter- mined. This was the beginning Of friendship between the young boy and his horse, Flicka. Then came the difficult task of catch- ing and breaking in the colt. A day or so after the process had begun, Flicka, while trying to escape from the corral injured himself seriously. Ken's father wished to kill him, but the young boy refused to believe that the horse would not regain its former strength. One night as Ken lay in bed he heard Flicka snorting. Without arousing the rest of the family he slipped out quietly to the barnyard. He found Flicka lying in the stream trying desperately to pre- vent the current from drawing under his head. Through the rest of the night, Ken lay in the cold brook holding Flicka's head out of the clutches of the swift-flowing water. He was found next day, shivering and very sick with pneu- monia. For days he hovered between life and death until at last under the watch and care of his mother he recup- erated. Meanwhile Flicka's fever de- clined after the night spent in the stream and as he was improving rapidly he was soon able to go with the other horses to pasture. All ends well when Ken and Flicka, strong again, are reunited. --ALICE HENRICH I Sole ow-W7'ho A ts ' ,Q xXx 1 I ff! ii: Jewellers ' Walclwrnalcers All l Bluebird .I I - ',i 'gg 1.y, .g , 1 it .

'I' Q Q Your methods of cultivation are hopelessly out of date, said Laverne Wittick, recent graduate of special Ag., to the old farmer. Why I'd be aston- ished if you got even ten pounds of apples from that tree. So would I, said the farmer, it's a pear tree. f' f tl' The stern-jawed, shaggy-browed, prominent citizen glared at the young man who had just entered his study. I understand, young man, that you desire to become my son-in-law, he boomed. The other iidgeted uneasily before replying, As a matter of fact I don't, Mr. Clamp, he confessed, but it's hard to avoid it if I marry your daughter isn't it?
