A story of Billy Betts an only child spoiled by his mother and deprived of playmates, forming a plan with friend Paul Grey to run away for summer adventures. They imagine becoming an Indian and prepare weapons while Billy hides a secret wardrobe in his room.
Two boys Billy and Paul run away in Indian garb to a riverbank with a cave for shelter. They charmed by mischief, lose their clothes to a tree limb, fall into peril, and are found by their fathers as parents reassess freedom and playmate choices.
A biographical sketch of Anne of Denmark born 1575 in Scanderburg and married to James VI. It notes her early neglect of learning, later charm in dancing, turbulent temper, and her role as mother to Charles I and Elizabeth of Bohemia. Mary Graham.
A children's piece by Annie James recounts springtime duties of Mr and Mrs Little Sparrow. He forages daily while she tends the eggs and nest near a creek, and at last the brood hatched into three tiny fledglings under his watchful care.
In a woods tale Mr. and Mrs. Little Sparrow rejoice over three hatchlings while neighbors share chatter and songs. Mr. Little Sparrow, inexperienced in feeding, frets as a visiting sparrow compares broods, and the mother, briefly free, forages above a pasture before returning to tend her nestlings.
Mrs. Little Sparrow returns to a nest by the creek to find her babies safe but hungry. Mr. Little Sparrow learns he misunderstood their wide open mouths as danger, not a request for food, and the couple vow to share the joke with neighbors as worms become plentiful.
