Sandman Freddy Cole looked at bla tnllboat and then looked at the weather. The sailboat looked well, the weather did not Freddy's home was along the coast where sailboat! were often bard to manage and where the weather did exactly as it chose even more so than It did anywhere lse so It seemed to those nearby. Freddy had been sailing all through the early spring and summer. He had learned to manage Die boat well and he was well aware of this. Not only had Freddy learned to sail the boat but he had learned to drive bis father's automobile. He did this well, too, though with none too much regard for those along the highway. To be sure. In the part of the world where Freddy lived the highway was never very crowded, but If a partridge did wander out upon the road It was all It could do to get back to the woods In time or if a cow meandered long It was no easy matter to get out of Freddy's way. Freddy rather prided himself on Just being able to miss objects when he drove. "I missed that chicken by feath er,'' he would say with pride. "But that's not fair," his best friend Harold Grant would answer. ' CHOCOLATE CUSTARD Soft custard flavored with chocolate Is more delicious and richer dessert than the chocolate cornstarch pudding which Is the only kind of chocolate pudding many people know. It Is not necessary to serve cream of any sort with this custard, but a little whipped cream on top Is undoubtedly good. The directions below are from the bu reau of borne economics. 1 quart milk H tip. salt cap susr 4 eggs I Niini untwiet- 1 Up. vanilla eaed chocolate.

"They'll all be killed sooner or later," Freddy would reply. "Let them be happy, then, while they live." Harold would answer. "Ah dont be so soft" Freddy would answer.

Hut there was a cruel streak run ning through him which worried Uurold and bothered him. At times Harold would argue with himself thnt Freddy was not really cruel he was Just thoughtless and so full of energy and .strength and the Joy of excitement that be didn't stop to think. And yet It was cruel to make nny creatures suffer, perhaps Harold, was, as Freddy said, soft, but he wished he could make Freddy softer, too. Freddy could do things so supremely welt He caught on to things at once. Hehad learned the bang of the auto mobile at once, he bad learned to sail the boat so quickly and with such skill. Harold envied hlju for bis cleverness and quickness. But later on Freddy learned, and admitted It too, that courage was not trying to bully some one more helpless than himself. Courage was something fur more Important than that It was being brave when unexpected dangers came up. It was being willing to admit fear but not let It get the better of you. Ob, Freddy learned what real cour age was, and It was Harold who taught It to him though Harold never said a word about It And the younger boys In that place learned, too, something of what cour age really, really meant I EX 1111. t win Ntwspspsr Unloa.) eeeeeeeeeMMMeeeeeeeet cook until smooth and thickened.
