Several hundred years ago, a band of explorers were embarking on a sea journey to the far north which would last for three weeks. During this time their staples would consist of crackers and dried meat. They couldn't cook aboard ship for fear of fire. When they arrived, they planned a celebration of roast lamb. The problem they faced was keeping the meat fresh for three weeks. If they tied a rope to the meat and trailed it in the cold water, predator fish would eat it. If they took ice and snow with them to keep the meat cool, the ice and snow would melt and the ship could fill with water.
How could they keep the meat fresh until they arrived at their destination?

A wealthy man named Richard Ellis had been counting his money. When he finished, he accidentally left a $100.00 bill on his desk. But when he returned for it a short while later, it was gone. Only two other persons could have seen the bill. One was the maid; the other was the butler. The maid told him that she had hidden it for safekeeping under a green book that was on the desk. But when they looked the bill was not there. The butler said he had found the bill where the maid had left it. He had placed it inside the book, where he thought there was less chance that somebody would find it. He had written down the page numbers so that he would not forget them. The bill was between pages 35 and 36, he said. But when they looked, there was no money in the book.
After Mr. Ellis had talked to the maid and the butler, he called the police. He was sure he knew who had taken the money. Who was it, and how did he know?

It can be small,
But with much power.
Some of them ping by the hour.
They come in all shapes and sizes,
Yet they all have the powerful noises.
Some advice: don't put them by your head,
Because when the time comes for it to ring,
You will jump out of your bed.
What is it?
