THE SHEATH STOCKING

Why the Kettle SingsDo you know why a kettle sings

when the water is boilingIts like this When the water be ¬

At first they burst only a little wayfrom the bottom but as the watergets hotter and hotter they rise higherand higher

At last when the water is boilingthey burst right on the surfacehundreds of them one right after another

and it Is the noise of their continu ¬

ous bursting which makes the soundwe call singing
