But talking of kissing makes me think of a story I found in Aunt Olivia 's scrapbook the other day . Would n't you like to hear it ? It is called , ` How Kissing Was Discovered . ' '' `` Was n't kissing always discovered ? '' asked Dan . `` Not according to this story . It was just discovered accidentally . '' `` Well , let 's hear about it , '' said Felix , `` although I think kissing 's awful silly , and it would n't have mattered much if it had n't ever been discovered . '' The Story Girl scattered her roses around her on the grass , and clasped her slim hands over her knees . Gazing dreamily afar at the tinted sky between the apple trees , as if she were looking back to the merry days of the world 's gay youth , she began , her voice giving to the words and fancies of the old tale the delicacy of hoar frost and the crystal sparkle of dew . `` It happened long , long ago in Greece -- where so many other beautiful things happened . Before that , nobody had ever heard of kissing . And then it was just discovered in the twinkling of an eye . And a man wrote it down and the account has been preserved ever since . `` There was a young shepherd named Glaucon -- a very handsome young shepherd -- who lived in a little village called Thebes . It became a very great and famous city afterwards , but at this time it was only a little village , very quiet and simple . Too quiet for Glaucon 's liking . He grew tired of it , and he thought he would like to go away from home and see something of the world . So he took his knapsack and his shepherd 's crook , and wandered away until he came to Thessaly . That is the land of the gods ' hill , you know .
The name XXXXX the hill was Olympus .
