The House with the Colored Windows

[Of Special Interest to Children]

VIRGINIA HAYNES

Dick and Dorothy had recently moved to a farm on a hillside, and were delighted to find, on the very top of the hill, a small summer house in which they could play. From this little summer house one could look out over the whole world below, or so it seemed, and in the near distance were fields of corn and a stretch of pasture land where a white horse grazed contentedly.

Now a feature of the summer house was a series of windows, one of red glass, one yellow, one green, and one blue. The fifth and last window was of the usual type, clear and transparent.

One day when the children were playing on the top of the hill, Dick heard Dorothy cry out, "Come and see the red horse!" Incredulous, Dick came running into the house where his sister was standing before the red window, looking out at "Whitie."
