JUST A THOUGHT A SMALL NEGRO BOY STOOD WATCHING THE BALLOON MAN AT THE COUNTY FAIR. SUDDENLY, A RED BALLOON BROKE LOOSE AND SOARED UPWARD UNTIL IT COULD BE SCARCELY BE SEEN. SO MANY PEOPLE WERE ATTRACTED BY THE INCIDENT THAT THE VENDOR THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE GOOD BUSINESS OT LET ANOTHER GO. SO HE SLIPPED THE STRING OF A BRIGHT YELLOW BALLOON AND, LATER A WHITE ONE.
THE LITTLE BOY STOOD THERE, AS IF WAITING FOR SOMETHING. FINALLY, HE ASKED "MISTER, IF YOU SENT THE BLACK ONE UP, WOULD IT GO AS HIGH AS THE OTHERS?"
THE BALLOON MAN , WITH AN UNDERSTANDING SMILE, RELEASED THE BLACK BALLOON AS HE SAID, "SONNY, IT ISN'T THE COLOR-IT'S THE STUFF INSIDE THAT MAKES IT RISE."
