SWALLOWS
TWO PET PIGEONS
Birds Rescued Alive by Gen.
trail Park Zoo Keeper.

New York.-A highly excited young
woman ran into the office of Bill Sny-
der, head animal keeper at Central
park.
He saw the look of terror on her face
and wondered if a lion had broken
loose He demanded, whats the
troube?"
THE pelican" she shrieked. The
pelican!'
Whats the matter with the peIi-
cam Snyder asked. whats it doneY
THE pelican. It's swallowed two
pigeons! | just saw it swallow them.
Come quickly. 1t might swallow some
more of them"
Snyder laughed
THAT happens about twice Il month"
said he.
But the poor birds! What will be-
come of themY'
The girl was almost sobbing.
"Come with me-" Bill said soothing
ly, "and I'll show you what becomes
of the poor birds"
He led the way to the cage where
the pelicans and other great billed
birds are kept.
Snyder was joined by other keepers.
and the cage was surrounded
Sure enough pelican's immense bill
was buGing out rs though the bird
had swallowed football
Are you ready?" called Snyder.
"All ready" replied the other keep
erS.
Eel Captain, Ell Captain" shouted
the keepers until the park echoed with
their cries.
FL Captain. who was the pelican,
opened his bill and pigeon flew out.
"Goody, goodyr' screamed the girl.
Again the keepers shouted Eel Capt.
tan, FL Captain" Again the pelican
glanced around and opened his bin. A
second pigeon fluttered ont and flew
away.
The girl clapped her hands with JOY
and asked: Aren't they hurt? Why
aren't they hurt?"
That's easy" answered SNYDER
you see the feathers are dry. and Il
bird cannot swallow a dry. feathery
substance That pelican tries to gulp
those pigeons 50 often they're getting
used to it, All we have to do when he
tries it is to brighten him by shouting
his name ms loud rs we can. That
makes him open his mouth"
The amazed girl left the park.
Its true as gospel" said Snyder
/ "a .J,t I,nt
mover swallowed any of our pigeons.

soon either"

demand for pure bred stock. On the
contrary with the growth of dairy
education, he will see great In

perintendent of the Advanced Regis

years, and has watched it steadily
grow from small beginnings to the
great popularity which it now enjoys.

herds had been established in Massa-
