The Ninth Commandment

[Written Especially for Children]

THIS is a true story about a boy named Ted. Ted was eight years old, and a pupil in a Christian Science Sunday School.

One evening, on returning home from work, his father brought Ted a pair of ice skates, but said that while getting off the streetcar he had lost the key belonging to the skates, and was unable to find it.

Of course, the skates could not be used without the key with which to fasten them to the shoes.
