Stories of Great Inventors

ROBERT FULTON

This story is about a giant

Do you believe in them?

He peeps out of your coffee cup in the

He cheers you upon a cold day in winter

But the boys and girls were not so well acquainted with hio

About that long ago, far to the north and east, a queer boy lived

He sat in his grand the tea-kettle

He seemed to be idle

But he was really very busy

He was talking very earnestly to the giant

The giant was a prisoner

No one kne to free him

Many had often tried to do this and failed

He was almost always invisible

But when he did appear, it was in the form of a very old man

This old , white hair, and a beard which seemed to enwrap him like a cloak--a cloak as white as snow

So his name is The White Giant

The boy's name was James Watt

He lived in far-away Scotland

He sat long, listening to the White Giant as he told his

The way in which the giant first showed hie

Ja very strangely
