. This doesn't mean that parents

speech habits. But it is better to
i guide them indirectly through word
.'games, memorising simple rhymes

A FEW years ago John W. Speaker in Wisconsin went on a'
.picnic. ‘ When he and his friends got to the place in the •
woods, they wanted to start a fire. But the wood was too moist.
^and so were. the leaves and moss; and there w^s no paper
available. No fire. .
‘x, •
. Mr. Speaker got to thinking about this. If he had tha^ .•
trouble, why other people must have it, too. He decided to :
invent some kind of stove that a person could
use anywhere, in any weather; a stove that .*
wouldn’t weigh much.
He did. Instead of mooning around about the -
idea, he perfected it, patented it, began to manu- *
facture a “vest-pocket" stove. '
The people who used this outfit were
hunters, fishermen, hikers, the outdoors
crowd.
Then came Pearl Harbor. If
Suddenly there was the problem of get
ting a small, light, compact “field stove” for the service
men. So Mr. Speaker put his stove in his pocket and
hied off to Washington and showed his midget stove
to the bigwigs. They were interested but said, “Too
big. Make it smaller, then come back."
And that’s what he did. Took it back and again ^
they said, “Too big." SPF*
He made it smaller; so small it would slip into a coat
pocket. . ,
'At last the government men said, “This is it." Then he
• began to manufacture the stoves for government orders. It
/ became most valuable, for it was found that the armed forces ,
, moved so fast that the field kitchen could not keep up with 1
them. Then it was that Mr. Speaker’s stove began going into
■ the foxholes. If a man bailed out, the stove went with him.
! For that is really what the device is now—a pocket stove. It
folds up like an accordian, and can be opened when time to
cook comes.
So there is the start of an idea—an idea a man thought of
' while he was on a picnic and its finish is that it is helping our
armed forces.
