30 The first great discovery that man probably made was that of fire. We
light a fire by a match. But, of course, matches are quite recent things. In olden
times fires were made by rubbing two flints against each other till a spark
came, and this spark set fire to places of dry straw or some other dry things.
Fire sometimes occur by themselves in the forests perhaps by the rubbing
together of flints or something else. But animals were not clever enough to
learn anything from them. But man was clever. He saw the use of fire. It kept
him warm in the winter and frightened away his enemies—the big animals. So,
whenever a fire started, the men and women must have tried to keep it up
throwing dry leaves into it. They did not want it go out. Slowly they must have
found out that they themselves could produce a spark and a fire by rubbing
flints together. This was a great discovery for them and it gave them some
power over the animals. Man was then well on his way to the lordship of the
world...precie writing..please help anyone
