Turkey Trot Has No Parents,
So Zoo Keeper Has to
"RaiSe" Him.

Poor little thing; hasn't any mamma
or papa. No one to love it or tell
it pretty nothings in bear talk. Did
you say bears can't talk? Well, then,
you don't know bears.
Keeper z. IT. Boyd, at the Grant park
zoo. says they can. He says bears
have a distinctive call for dinner, for
bed, for pain and for pleasure. He says
they can all but speak. and he knows.
Boyd proves his point with Turkey
Trot, the latest recruit to the park
bear cage. Boyd is acting as auto
matte pap and mamma to Turkey Trot,
as Turkey Trot, 1t may be well to re-
mark, has not as yet been placed on
a heavy diet. Turkey Trot can alb
sorb more liquid refreshment in the
way of milk than any bear south of
the Mason and Dixon line.
Turkey Trot chortles for his sus-
tenance in a high nasal pitch, declares
Boyd, easily distinguishable from his
call for bed or his cry of pain, when
he stubs his fat foot or lumberingly
spills his $50 pounds of carcass in an
attempt to scale the bars of his cage.
Some Job For Keeper.
This raising of q bear cub via the
bottle route is no sinecure," says Boyd.
Being the fountain of life to a zoo
pet takes all the energy out Of fell
low. Why it's all I can do to keep

through with breakfast than Turkey
Trot sings out that it is dinnertime.
mo sooner is dinner served than 1t
is suppertime. I'll soon have to have
a troop of COWS for this youngster
if he doesn't learn to eat regular food
like the rest OF the bears
Turkey Trot Is an orphan. He's sort
Of a founding. His NAV and paw were
sort of lost in the general mtxup incl
dent to his arrival here and he had to
have q sort of mother until he reached
such a state as he could take care Of
himself.
Doesn't Eat Meat Yet.
TT takes a regular dairy to feed
Turkey Trot," says Boyd. But little
by little we hope to put the tiny fell
low on regular grub like the other
bears. He isn't able yet to handle a
meat diet, but from his evident delight
at smelling the food and his efforts to
paw 1t over It'll not be long till he
calls with his older brothers and sis
ters for his share of the daily feed"
Turkey Trot can be seen at the zoo
any day absorbing his several quarts
Of tactical fluid And to see the little
fellow on his hind legs getting out
side Of bottle full OF milk is in it
self one good show.
And Keeper Boyd insists thatRrur-
key Trot calls for the bottle in a dis
tinctive tone. And more wonderful
there's no one to dispute the statement.

Though Councilman Orv1lle H Hall,

new charter in the committee of 25,
they object to being classed as mem

Counciinen Hall and Ashley were
strong supporters Of Mayor Woodward
the first OF the year and both got fine
committee appointments. AS soon as
they showed a disposition to fight the
new charter, the Chambers faction was
ready to receive them. Their attitude
now threatens to disrupt the organized
opposition to the new charter, for Al

 On the steamer she learned two in teresting facts in connection with the huge glaciers which are chara cteriStic feature of the Alaskan coast.
