Spelling Words My brother Ben, who was my only reletive, and I wanted to work together. A pasagge from a Pony Express newspaper ad read, "Willing to risk death daily." It left no room for cowerdice. The ad also said that a knowlege of riding was required. We had horses on our cabagge farm before we moved out West, so we could ride. Ben decided to play detecktive and find out more about the Pony Express. He discovered that the pay was $100 a month, but the work was dangerous. It would take a lot of courrage to gallop along trails through strange, new lands in all kinds of weather. What if we came across an American Indian vilage? We wouldn't know the native langauge to communicate. After our interview, Ben and I smiled at the adjetive the boss used: "You two are a 'perfect fit for the job," he said. It certainly helped that we knew that the required postege for a letter was $5, and that the servis was fast--sometimes only 10 days! 1. storage 2. olive 3. service 4. relative 5. cabbage 6. courage 7. native 8. passage 9. voyage 10. knowledge 11. image 12. creative 13. average 14. justice 15. detective 16. postage 17. cowardice 18. adjective 19. village 20. language Challenge prejudice cooperative beverage heritage apprentice 1. 7. 2. 8. 3. 9. 4. 10. 5. 11. 6. 12
