Awkward Bob and Jim wore working on a big factory chimney that had to come down. They had got a tip from the factory foreman that if they could knock twenty feet off it before tho authorities came round, it would savo tho factory the expense of a scaffold and mean a tip apiece. Big masses of brickwork were falling to earth. A man who lived near was disturbed by the noise and started to make a fuss. “Here, Bob,” cried Jim, ‘‘you climb down and quieten that fellow. Keep him talking while I finish this job.” So Bob climbed down and engaged the indignant man in conversation. Suddenly Jim heard Bob calling to him, and, looking dow, saw his friend gesticulating wildly and beckoning him to come down. So Jim canto down. “What’s the matter?” he asked. 1 “Let’s go home, Jim, thundering quick. We’ve been pulling down the wrong chimney.”
