blowing bubbles. There's a chance
the note is right.
"Whoever blows the blgcost
one is bound to have a lot or fun.
'cause that's the bubble that is
going to bring a thrilling sight."
Soon bubbles floated all 'round.
They'd drop and burst upon the
ground.- Not one of them was
very big and Duncy said, "Aw.
gee! Just how long Is It going to
lake to make a big one? They
all break! I've blown so many
now that I'm as winded as can
bo." '.
"Just keep It up," ' cried
Scouty. "You must do the best
that you can do and trust to luck!
I'm sure that we will win out. af

...
JUST then another Tiny said.
"Hey! One went smack, rlghi
on my head. It made my lint all
wet." This made the other Tinles
smile.
For 'bout a half an hour they
tried, but nothing happened.
