writer in the July Wide Awake, and
Polly was very proud of her voice.
One day a neighbor brought over
her canary to be kept while she was
away from home.
No sooner would the canary COM
mence singing than Polly would
bristle her feathers and cry out:
You don't sing right! you don't
sing right Hear Polly sing !" Then
Polly would execute There is a
Happy Land" to the best Of her
ability.
One evening my uncle, who is some
what deaf, was telling me that there
was concert in the town hall, and
he should like to go but did not think
he could hear. Whereupon the par
rot shrieked:
"Polly'll sing Polly'll make you
hear!"
The gentleman turned courteously
to her.
THANK you, Polly! I'll stay at
home and hear you!' he said.
She danced about her cage in de-
light Beautiful Polly! Polly can
sing.' she kept saying softly to her
self, with pride in her accomplish
ment that was amusing to see.
