enough to last year after year, if they

tells ere that he has cousins who live on
far-awav islands where there are neither
trees nor shrubs and these crows build
their nests, and very good looking ones
too, of the dried and bleached bones of
large fish that have been thrown up on
the shore. Queer nests. l should think,
but they show the ingenuity and perse

than TO sit down and cav sulkily that
