One day neat and pretty little
brown bird, with trim. legs and a nice
bill, came flying in and said he wanted
to live with them. The other birds all
liked his looks and, as he was very po-
lite. they told him to come on and build
himself a nest and live there.
But after he had lived there little
while the other birds noticed that he
never seemed to be busy about his
home, but was always flying around
visiting. One day the wise old crow,
who was the head of the bird town,
said to his cousin, the blackbird;
