    THE ROBIN AND THE BLACKBIRD

    The weather was very cold. A robin sat inside its warm
    and comfortable nest. Then a blackbird came. It was
    trembling from cold. It poked its head inside the nest and
    said, “Friend Robin, may I put my head inside your nest?
    It’s cold outside.”

    Certainly, you may,” said Robin.

    Then the blackbird said, “Friend Robin, may I put my


    two legs inside your nest? It’s cold outside.”

    Ofcourse, you may,” said Robin.

    After a few minutes, the blackbird had another request.


    “Friend Robin, will you allow me to put my wings inside
    your nest? It’s cold outside.” “Yes, do come in,” said Robin,
    and he moved aside so that the blackbird could have more
    space for himself.

    The nest was not a big one. After a while, the blackbird
    said, “The nest is not big enough for the two of us. I’d like
    to rest and stretch my wings but you are on my way. You
    better get out of this nest.” Then he shoved Robin and
    pushed him out of his own nest.

    FIRE: FRIEND AND FOE

    Fire is a friend as well as a foe.

    Fire has many uses. It cooks food and heats water for
    household needs. I give heat as well as light to homes. It is used
    to destroy rubbish, dirt, and germs. Trains and steamships
    depend on fire to be able to run. Automobiles, airplanes, and
    even rocketships are run by the fuel burned in their engines. Fire
    furnishes the energy for the operation of most factory machines.
    It is also used in the manufacture of certain things like iron, steel,
    rubber, paper, glass, brick, sugar, and many other materials.

    We owe many of our comforts to fire but fire is also a foe. It


    can wipe out all our possessions in just a few hours or even
    minutes. Many houses, buildings, schools, and markets have
    been partly or totally destroyed by fires. Even our forests are not
    safe from fires caused by lightning, by cigarettes tossed
    carelessly, and even by kaingineros. Many lives too, have been
    lost because of fire.

    Fire is a friend if used properly, but it’s a foe if used


    carelessly.
