When he comes and stands on this lip, or| closed edge of the flower tube, it opens and yields its honey to him. The lit- tle bees can come and stand on the threshold and smell the honey, but they cannot get in. Sometimes they steal it, breaking and entering. These little bees get the honey by making a hole in the walls of the honey tube and taking it out on the side. The morning glory has a deep throat and s a moth flower, for only in- sects With long tongues can reach the honey pot; but the rogue bees locate | the honey and break through to it from the outside. Perhaps you have seen the holes in the side of the flower so carefully cut, and did not know this was evidence the plant had been bur- glarized. The humming birds steal honey in this way, too, from flowers CLE ]} i p too deep-throated for them to get at the honey pots in the regular way.

He feit proud and stately. He often won- dered what good he could do in this at, wide world. One day while he pondering over this two men came along and stopped and admired his beauty, and said: ¥ fine material there is in that trec for flooring!” So they had it cut down and drew it to a sawmill and had it made into nice boards, and then sent it to New York. It s0 happened that they were building ® battlship. These boards were made into a beautiful flooring for the captain’s cabin. If the tree once was proud, imagine its pride now. It thought: Now I will see some of the great world.” After making a trip around the world and visiting Yokohama, Sydney, Lon- don and other great cities, the ship returned home, and all were resting peacefully in New York harbor, when one day war was declared. “Oh!
