The parrot manifested no interest in
the subject, sitting stupidity on her
perch. Each one of the party tried in
turn to make her talk, but failed. Ha-
zeltne, who had not yet got on to the
sell, remarked that parrots were like
childrsn-they often wouldn't talk to
strangers without their fathers or
mothers egging them On. As soon as
Poll got used to her neN master she'd
show up fine So he took the bird
home, and after he had gone we laugh
ed till we all had side ache.
Weeks passed before Hazeltine would
admit that his parrot was dumb as a
lamp post. He had meanwhile spent a
lot of money on parrot teacher, who
failed signally to get the bird to utter
single word. Finally Hazeltine sold
the bird for dollar and, having made
up his mind that u trick had been
played on him, asked how IL had been
done. whereupon he was informed
that Billy had bought the bird for a
song and had hired a ventrlloquist to
bring it to his rooms and make II
talk just like a human being. Billy
had recovered the hundred dollars
Tom had taken out of him minus SIC
