"Oh, is it, mother; what do you
know about it?"
Il know a lot about it," she re-
piled with a contented little -four

herself to tell him about it. (Is there
anything more fun than telling all you
know-and maybe little more-to
somebody who can't dispute you?)

That's because you are bird.
Children think it is fine" answered
his mother. They like to do things

The little sparrow pondered over
that for quite while, then he said:

"Oh, no, | won't" replied the little
bird pleasantly. Then with sudden
inspiration he added, "but I'm going
to start bird school. Then maybe
the little boy will like me again"
"Where will you have it," asked his
mother. Birds are not used to doing
things in rows, you know"
Yes, know that" replied the little
bird so | mean to have it on the
wires here, on the clothes lines and

And would you believe it-he did!
He called all his friends, and they sat
in rows on the telegraph wires and
pretended they had school,
