the old birds-a gray sparrow
became blind. StraIghtway q
little siaFk brown and white
bird, known a. a japanese nun
and named Dick. became the
sparrow's friend. The spar
rows home hsd q round hole rs
a doorway. Little Dick would
w0usd cit down on perch op
posite the hole and ehirp- The
blind bird would come out, and
guided by Dicks chirps would
leap the perch and so on to the
seed cup and water bottle. But
the most curious part of the
performance was when the blind
sparrow would try to get back
iEt0 the house Dick would
place the sparrow exactly Op
Posite the hole by showing him
along the perch When Oppo
site Dick would ehirp and the
blind bird would leap in, never
