A TAME CROW.

Dear Little Men and Little Women. Sunday at-
ter Sunday I read stories written for this sec
ton Of The Tribune. and am much pleased with
experience OF mine.
One summer, about three years ago, when was
on my vacation In the Green Mountains. went 10
visit NV cousins who lived IN a small village
short distance away. We had been playing games
for some time and amusing ourselves in different
ways when my cousin Helen said. oh let Us go
over and see the tame crow -
We went down the road til came 10 a farm
house. and there on the porch We saw the crow.
Helen called TO him. saying, Jim, Jim come
here
The crow walked over 20 US. and saw that there
was something the matter with OF his wings
Helen said II had been broken once. and that he
could nor nv very we'll After while decided
70 go home and when we had nearly reached the
house happened TO turn around and saw the crow
following US Just then my other cousin. Charlie.
came out with a number OF boys and girls, and
ssl,Ad Us 10 play Tag. While were playing the
crow ran up 10 mo and nipped my leg and the
rest laughed and said, "Seel Jim wants TO play
too"
They told me that he often played tag and al
though Il was eesy for him TO tag US, It was not
so easy for US TO tag him, he could fly Just far
enough 70 get out Of our reach. We had great fun
playing with him, and each OF us had more than
one nip from his sharp bill
