STRANGE DOG It was twilight in the country, the end of a beautiful summer's day. The air was fresh and the smell of flowers was everywhere. The only sounds were those of the crickets and birds. It was on this day that I decided to take a walk through the country. I soon reached the summit of a hill which seemed the highest point from which the eye could see. As I stopped to admire the beauty of the scene, the silence was broken by the loud, hysterical barking of a dog. A gigantic dog, about three feet on all his fours, ran toward me at top speed as if to tear me apart. The dog must have belonged to a farmhouse and was apparently guard- ing against trespassers. I was terri fied! My blood froze as I watched the wide-open mouth and protruding fangs. I was glued to the spot! Some instinct must have told me to put out my hand to pretend friend- ship. The dog, as a result, stopped short and the barking ceased. His mouth was still wide open,however, and he stood there staring at me. I had no further trouble and I was able to get home safely. Steven Flexser 'Y X 1 W poNA1.D ms, ruzggnorrp MOQSE Donald was at home one cold win- ter morning. He was eating break- fast and at the same time thinking about Christmas gifts for his friends. For his friend Joey, the squirrel, he would get a fur hat... no....a nut cracker....no....a fur hat: For Sammy, the bear, he would get some....some....yes that's it! Imported honey. And last but not least for Oswald, the owl, he would get..............Sunglasses. He quickly bought all his gifts and waited for Christmas to come. On Christmas day, he presented his presents. But no one thought of giving him anything. Donald was very sad. In two days was his birthday. Would they forget that, too? The birthday came. No presents! No cards! Donald went out very sadly to celebrate by himself. He felt very rejected. Donald did not have a good time. When he came back home and opened the door,nSur- prisen everyone yelled. It was a double birthday-Christmas party. Donald got lots of presents. He was very happy. All of his friends were there, Sammy, Joey, and Oswald. It was a real surprise. Never again did he feel rejected. Fred Avner tgyfsg Q' P me Q , x I Nsbxitsx 1- xv ' ,,'f mu-I4 f p L X5 I I, gg? x K. 1 ' ,D . 4 .H I S 'Yi 3 ., 4 ,Q Inf VIA 4 , ,fav fi, , X22 Q 41

gf THE BEARS It all started when we were camp ing out in the wilderness of a nat ional park. We had made our camp and were walking about looking for excitement. We were quickly satis- fied when two black bears, huge in size made their appearance. At first. we thought we should run for our lives, but when the queer-look- ing animals started playing tricks, we changed our minds. We soon caught on. They were begging for a bite to eat. 1 Elr In no time we were fast friends. We obliged our visitors by serving them honey and crackers which we had prepared for the cook-out. The bears were satisfied and we bid them good-by. That night, while we were asleep, our rations were stolen. There was no trace of the culprits. We thought of the bears but we could not be too sure. ,, , f iff- .IO r j ...fi 9? STJCT? Cf'mg -i 40 That night we agreed It was to set up a trap of honey and crackers. hind a tree waiting for ers. Finally we heard c on a plan. with a jar We hid be- the intrud- rackling in the underbrush. There, true to form were the bears. But to our surprise with them was a huge jackal which they already snared into our trap. We were delighted with the catch for,as you know, the jackal is one of the most dangerous animals of the wilderness. the bears with more crackers, they re- the jackal. We rewarded honey and more warded us with Harry Hill
