of tho mountain they wen on at tais very moment. All were suddenly motionless. At tais tense moment, tho boys almost automatically turned and started toward tho exit. Tho scouts found thoir way out of the cave and began wondering what direction they had come from. They tried to calculate tho direction to go by tho location of the sun, but tho sun was practically down by now. They walked and walked, but seemed to get no whoro oxcept moro and more lost. Tho scouts decid- ed that they should stop and settle down to camp for the night. This would bo tho bost way, because it was growing dark now and thoy would not be ablo to roach homo boforo total darkness. Tho scouts built a small firo between two stones and kept it going all night to koop down tho chill on the mountain. Each scout took his turn staying on duty about ovory half hour to koop tho firo At length, it would bo daybreak and tho boys would bo ablo to toll tho direction when tho sun rose. When tho sun roso tho boys worked out directions f’rom tho East to tho directions of thoir town. They walked and walked, until suddenly thoy hoarl what sounded like a whistle, which sounded like the seven O’clock shop whistle b?ex homo- Thoir hope3 wro rigtw, because thoy continued their journey in the direction jf tho sound of tho whistle, and finally reached tho .waging road with which they wore familiar. When. tho beys arrived homo, thoir parents wore tremor.- dously w err loci about thorn They told the boys that they had notified tho loader about their absence, and he told thor. net to worry bocauso they had. boon trained not to panic, but to mo choir heads This they did;both the scouts' parents and. thoir leader woro very plorscd to find how clovorly rhoy had found thoir way home-. David Westcot 0 A Terrible Experience One day in late June, Jane snd Bill Simmons were sitting on the sofa at their summer cottage)reading books. Did you see that flash? , asked Bill, It looked like lightning. Just then they saw another big flssh with thunder follow- ing. They knew then that they were going to have a shower be- cause the sky was full of big ugly looking clouds. Oh, I'm scared , cried Jane, Will it set the cottage afire ? When Mrs. Simmons heard Jane crying she rushed in to see what was p-oing on. After she had comforted her they all went in to have s lunch.

While they were eating their telephone rang. It was Mr. Simmons phoning to tell them that there was going to be a terrific storm and they ought to take whet the family would need and go up to Mrs. Johnson's, the neighbor's, until he could find e place for them to stay. When he told Mrs. Simmons the water was rising and she would have to hurrysfco was much disturbed. .After she hung up she could just imagine the rising water carrying their cottage down the lake, but she and the Children hurried to gather up their clothes. On their way to Mrs. Johnson’s the rein poured down in sheets. They were all running when Jane called to her .mother to wait for her. Mrs. Simmons turned to look at Jane, she fell. Jane and Bill tried to help her up, but she thought she had twisted her ankle. She told them to run ahead and get help, Jane wanted to stay with her mother but she told her she would be all n'ght, and that she thought Jane should go along with Bill-. They took all their luggage they could carry and went ahead to Mrs, John- son's for help. While Jane and Bill were gone it started lightning and raining harder than ever. They had been gone for only a few minutes; but it seemed like hours to Mrs. Simmons. She tried to force herself to walk but it hurt her so she couldn't. Jane and Bill told Mrs. Jbhnson what had happened,and she soon called two of the neighbors to help get Mrs. Simmons to the house. 'When they finally reached Mrs. Simmons they found that she had fainted from exhaustion. The two men who had come to help carry Mrs. Simmons to Mrs. Johnson's house and then called Mr. Simmons and the doctor. When the doctor arrived at the house Mrs. Simmons was in so much pain . the doctor told Mr. Simmons to rush her to the hospital right away for x-rays. Sure enough, as he had predicted, her ankle was broken. While Mr. Simmons was at the hospital it kept raining and the water kept rising. He couldn't get bsck to Mrs. Johnson's to get Jane and Bill, so they had to stsy all night there-, That night when they went to bed they were grateful that nothing more serious had happened to their mother ani obey pray- ed that they would never have to go through such on experience os this again, until they were grown-ups at least.
