out into the country. He went
out some distance and, since the

and the service consequently
poor, he travelled to and from

in for chicken raising, and order
ed a patent chicken coop. On
the day it was expected to arrive
he set out in a dray to fetch it
from the freight office. He
reached the railway station
which, by the way, he had never
seen-after an hours drive. No
one was in sight, but there was
his chicken coop. With his
mans assistance he soon had it
on the dray and set off for home
