A Business Bee And Our Competition

A Business Bee And Our Competition.

A crowd of people gathered in a busy Christchurch street the other day to watch a bewitched strip of paper which flew out of an office window. It was an inch wide and six inches long and instead of fluttering down, it dived, soared, zig-zagged and whirled about at a great old speed. Someone then discovered that a bee was stuck to it! Apparently this busy bee had lost its way and had mistaken a glue-pot for a honey-pot and then become hopelessly entangled on a desk during the owner's absence from business.

What do you think happened to that business bee after he flew away? Perhaps you can guess. If so, make up a very short story about it and send to Trainland. Prizes will be posted for the best.
