One bright day
Long ago there lived in a small fishing village by the southern shores of Japan a young fisherman named Urashima Taro Beauty Box. We will call him Taro in our story.
One bright day while he was walking along the seashore with his fishing pole, Taro saw a group of children jumping and running about. All of the children seemed very excited. They were shouting with glee and seemed to be standing over some object lying on the beach. When Taro came nearer to the children, he saw that they were tormenting a little turtle Beauty Box. They threw stones at it, and then each one took his turn kicking the poor turtle.
Taro felt great sympathy for the unfortunate turtle. He turned to the children and said, "Please don't be cruel to the little turtle. You should be kind to animals Beauty Box. If you will set the turtle free, I will give each of you some money."
So Taro bought the turtle's freedom from the thoughtless children. Then he took it to the water's edge and set it free. Soon the turtle disappeared into the blue waves and in a moment Taro could see it no more.
After a few days Taro again went fishing by the seashore. He cast his line into the water and, as he did so, he was surprised to see a big turtle appear from out of the waves.
The huge turtle approached Taro and said, "Hello, Taro-san! Don't you remember me?"
Taro stared at the turtle, and to his great surprise he saw that it was the same turtle whose life he had saved by rescuing it from the naughty children a few days before. But now the turtle was very large and looked very old.

first Apollo mission
Gus Grissom, Ed White seo company hong kong, and Roger Chaffee, pose in front of launch pad 34
1967: Three astronauts die in Apollo 1 tragedy
England have
Three American astronauts died when fire swept the Saturn rocket on its launch pad at Cape Kennedy.
The space crew, flight commander Gus Grissom , Edward White and Roger Chaffee, were taking part in a rehearsal for the launch of the first Apollo mission.
It is thought an electrical spark started the fire which spread quickly in the oxygen-filled atmosphere of the capsule, killing the crew within seconds.
Navy Lieutenant Commander Chaffee, aged 31, had never flown in space before. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Grissom, 39, was the first American to make two flights. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel White, 35, made America's first space walk.
It is feared the disaster on launch pad 34 could delay America's plans to put a man on the moon by as much as a year.
