How Mr.. Fox Lost His Breakfast.

~ NE night old Mn Fox was run
ming along as fast as he could
toward home with a fat goose
and n hen and thinking about
what a nice breakfast he and Mrs. Fox
would have and how pleased his wife
would be when he should have been
thinking where he was walking and
looking out for himself
The first thing Mr. Fox knew after
thinking of his breakfast was to find
himself in deep hole among sticks
ed stones. To be sure, he had the
hen and goose with him, and that was
some satisfaction.
Now it happened that Madam Goose
was alive and SO was old black hen.
and when Mr.. Fox fell ne dropped them
and they jumped to their feet.
"A pretty fix you have got me into"
said Mr.. Fox. wishing to blame some
one for his mishap. Perhaps you can
get me out. now you have brought this
trouble upon me-
Madame Goose looked up and so did
old black hen, but the top was too high
for them TO reach. We cannot fly SO
high said Madame Goose.
We might cackle and quack." sug-
sested old black hen.
NO. no." said Mr.. Fox. Use your
wits, not your voices
lie was afraid the farmer and the
dog might hear them. and then he knew
he would lose not only his breakfast
but his life as well.
There was just one way, and that was
TO let the hen or the goose climb Up on
his back and then try to fly TO the top
and go for help, but Mir. Fox was not
sure he could trust them, and he might
as well die one way as another. he de-

being sure of Madam Goose's plan, but
feeling that every minute they gained
might lead to escape for them.

Mr.. Fox was thinking more about
getting out just then than he was of
mis- breakfast. SO he did as Madam
Goose said. and after one or two calls
they heard some one running tward
the hole But it was not Mrs Fox. it
was old Reddy Fox who lived over the
hill. and when ne looked into the hole
and saw the fat hen and goose he al
most fell in, too, so eager was he to get

their appearance at the High School

being offered at the high school this
winter.
The singers were of the best and
it is seldom that better musical en-
t"rtainers of their class are seen off
the grand opera stage. The troupe
consisted of five musicians. and they
were all musicians of the highest
type. Two male and two female
voices made up the quartet and with
a male pianist the party gave high
class entertainment which was high
ly appreciated by the true music low
ers of Trinidad.
The program was arranged in
three parts. The first part consist
ed of quartet. duet and solo numbers
ranging from grand opera numbers
to comedy sketches. The second part
consisted of the rendering of the
songs which were written half d
century ago and which are still alive
and on the lips of everyone. Durin-:
this part the singers were dressed
in appropriate costumes of the time
in which the songs were written.
For the third part of the program
the singers presented the second act
of the opera Martha. This was
well done and deserved the hearty
applause which was given it.
With the Kellogg -Haines singers

started off in a grand style and four
other numbers equally as good are
