ELEPHANT vs.. BAGPIPES

On a certain occasion some
Gordon Highlanders were march
ing from place called Jellunder to
Fort Kangra, situation on one OF
the lower ranges of the Himalayas.
Accompanying them was an ele-
plant, on which were placed sick
and exhausted people.
After a few days march the men
were deprived of music on account
of the piper's feet becoming blister
ed, and he was relegated to the back
of the elephant
On the last days march, before
entering new station, someone
suggested that in order to brighten
them up the piper might be re-
quested to play on the elephants
back at the head of the company.
To this the officer assented, and
accordingly the piper was handed
his pipes.
When he began to tune them it
was evident that the elephant had
no appreciation for such sounds,
for he shook his head, tapped his
big ears menacingly, raised his
trunk with which he embraced the
piper round the waist, andyiolently
threw him and his pipes into a
ditch as a mark of his disapproval
OF such music.
