a large number Of crows were forag
ing for food not long ago close to the
house of a farmer in West Virginia.
They were unusually bold, as though
hunger had driven them to forget their
usual shyness and distrust Of their
natural enemies-men.
Two of them alighted close to the
back door and picked up the crumbs
with an apparent assurance OF their
safety not easily accounted for. The
farmer was telling a neighbor about
the tameness OF the birds, and the lat
ter remarked:
"You won't see them foolhardy to-
morrow"
why not tomorrow as we'll as to-
day."
Because today is Sunday, and these
crows know it. They know that one
day in seven they are not popped at
by boys and men. They can count.
crows can, and they know that on the
seventh day they are exempt from per
secution.
Il once lived near a swamp where
thousands of crows made their roost-
ing place, and early in the morning
they used to start for the mountains
for their food l was often out with
my gun trying to get a shot at them.
Week days they were shy Of me, and
seldom got shot at them, but on
Sunday morning it was different Then
they would fly low and close to my
house, their wings almost Tapping the
ridgeboards of house and barns. Do
crows know when 1t is Sunday? OF
course they do."-Exchange.
