STORY OF SOME WATER DROPS 153 



And it was our little grains of wheat that 

 they helped to grind into flour ! 



They had turned the wheel. 



Then they flowed into a pond. 



It was a beautiful pond. 



On top were water lilies. 



These looked like great white stars. 



Below were minnows, and other pretty fish. 



Every once in a while a great green frog 

 splashed into the water. 



It was very lovely there. 



So the water drops did not hurry away. 



But at last they had to leave the quiet pond. 



Many other brooks were tumbling down hills. 



One of them was making Lindu's veil. 



A beautiful broad river held out her hand to 

 them all. 



They ran to her. 



And here they saw many strange sights. 



They carried boats and steamers. 



Over their heads were handsome bridges. 



Some of the water stopped at the towns and 

 cities, but most of it went on and on. 



At last it reached the ocean. 



This was the end of its earth travels. 



But it went to heaven many times again.
