Strange Show for City Folks

Strange SHOW LOT Nlty FOLKS
About the best piece of news
that has come from New York
City for a long while is the
announcement that a real live
COW is to be added to the large
c Election of strange and rare
ami nails already gathered to-
geth T in Central Park. Not a
purple COW, nor a monstrosity
of the bovine species with two
heads of six legs, but just a
plain, everyday moo-cow that
switches her tail in fly time,
chews the cud at stated inter
walls and gives good, rich milk.
And the milking is to be done
in the open, before the wide
eyed gaze of New York's
youngsters, who, sophisticated
beyond belief in so many ways
have yet to be initiated into
the mysterious sources Of the
genuine tactical fluid, of which
they have heard so much but
know so little.
It is not stated who is re-
eponsible for this innovation.
Whoever he is, he is a genius,
one Of those possessing the rare
faculty Of seeing a genuine op.
portunity for good and Of sup.
plying a long existing need.
