One Of my boy. was flying his kite
early III the summer. ana when it
had sailed nigh up over ii piece Of
wood. on my place the string broke.
and the kite lodged III the top Of q
hemlock tree. The boy bawlel about
the loss of the kite. and | bad to climb
the tree to get it for him.
"A crow flew off her nest near the
top of the tree while | was climb
ing up, and when l reached the
nest found one egg in it. After
had unloosened the kite and let it
drop ! placed the crows egg in my
mouth and kept it there until had
backed down the tree, and then ran
to the barn and put the egg under a
hen that had been setting day or
so. The old hen offered no objec
tons. and several days before she
came off with her chickens she
hatched out the liveliest little crow
ever saw.
We began to raise the baby crow
in the house. When he was big
enough to run around on the floor
named him Kite. He learned to say
good many words by the time he
was a year old. and one morning that
summer ! heard him yelling down
The unused chimney at ii lot Of swal-
lows that We're nesting in it. The
swallows We're making a great racket,
and Kite was singing out, Hold your
tongue.' as loud as he could yell.
Kite could tell the time Of day by
the clock. and when the weather
was cloudy used to send him to the
house from the field to see what time
it was Instead of asking my wife
the crow would look at the clock
without saying a word to her. and
then sail back to the lot and sing it
out to me- When the sky was clear
| could tell by the sun within ten
minutes what time it was. and the
crow got SO that he could guess al
most as close as ! could. One sun.

the house and bring me the time

him it was later than that. and he
flew to the house and back and said.

after he was years old He couldn't
stand the cold. and kept hlm in

had got ready to go to bed he called
me to him and said. John. Kite'll be

him and told him he was good for
another year. but | couldn't make
