In order to make himself go faster, he tried to' race his own shadowas it fell on the ice ahead of him, when he was about half way across, crunch! the weakice suddenly broke beneath his weight, and with a splash he fell through it. All the air wassucked out cif his lungs by the shock of the freezing water biting into his body, so that fortwenty or thirty seconds afterwards he was not even able to scream. Then at last hefound his voice, shouted for help, and almost immediatly afterwards blacked out.

When hE:lopened his eyes again, he was lying in bed in his own home, with his fatherbending anxiously over him. 'You should have known better than to do a silly thing like

Someone recently discovered a place where metal had been worked continuously ,longer than anywhere else in England, He 'saw' a wall in the Forest of Dean. Thousandsof people must have looked at it without really seeing it, but this man noticed thatamong ihe usual stones of that place were bits and pieces of a different colour; theyalso felt different to the hand. A closer sight 'showed that those pieces had been leftbehind in the fires of ancient peoples who had smelted rocks to get metals. Lookingaround, he found more and more information, until the history of what men had done

at that place over tens of centuries was known.
