the Strong Man The king of a great domain once alled all his subjects together. “My people,” he said, “I will give my daughter’s hand in mar- riage to the strongest man in my kingdom!” ‘There was great excitement. The following morning the roads were swarming with people travelling to the scene of the tests of strength, which the king's viziers had ar. ranged. High on a mountainside stood a huge boulder. ‘The man who could roll that boulder down the mountain would win the fair princess. A huge throng assembled around it. “Let the trials begin,” ordered the monarch. Up stepped a huge blacksmith. He dug his fect into the ground, placed his shoulder against the boulder, and arched his back in a mighty heave. Nothing happened. The crowd booed. — Perspiration dripped from his bunched muscles. the Judge's Crossword Puzzle No. M3 Pe PP | et TY Submitted by Walter Wellman, Montvale, N. J. Horizontal How Percy throws a hiss.

The sun swung over the zenith, and finally the last strong man had attempted to move the boulder and failed. “Paugh!” exclaimed the king, “this test is too difficult: for my weaklings! I'll have no more of it Wait!” cried a voice. A young man stepped forth from the throng. “Ll have my turn, your majesty!” He walked over to the huge stone, gave it a shove, and with a deep groan it parted from. the ground, hung balanced, then went crashing down the slope. A great huzzah went up. fhe next day the young man and the king's daughter were wed. A few weeks later the king chanced to encounter his new son- in-law in the garden, culling the petunias. There's one thing I've never been able to figure out,” said the king. “Since you were so strong. why didn’t: you appear carlier in the tests of strength?
