terribly frightened and cried out for
help. At the seaside bathing places
there are life savers, who row about
in small boats short distance beyond
the bathers. II the life saver in his
boat hears a cry for help he rows in
the direction of it as hard as he can,
grasps the sinking person and takes
distance away when the struggling boy
cried out for help. He started for the
boy as fast as possible. So did an
other man who saw the lad. But be-
fore the men could reach the boy there
was an animal life saver on the spot,
and very big and strong one. That
life saver was nobody else than a huge
elephant, and he rescued the boy even
more quickly and neatly than man
could have done.
At Coney Island there are two or
three shows in which trained animals
give performances every day in sum-
mer. 1t was SO awfully hot on this
particular day that the elephant keep
er in one of the shows led his huge
beasts down to the water to get a surf
bath. They enjoyed it very much and
had good play with the keeper just
as il they had been children.
While they We're splashing one an
other and ducking the keeper there
came suddenly the poor boys cry for
help. It was feeble, for he was almost
exhausted, but those big elephants
heard it as quickly as if they had been
human beings. Instantly one of the
great beasts started for the boy, walk
ing as fast as his huge body could go.
When the water got deep enough he
began to swim with all his might. In
spite of being so heavy, the four legged
life saver reached the boy before the
two legged ones. He Immediately
curled his trunk around the struggling
swimmer as tenderly as II it had been
baby he was handling. He lifted the
boy out OF the water, held him up in
his trunk and swan to shore almost
