know just what the Children were
laughing at, but they looked very much
pleased. Gyp leaned his head out be-

their heads together.

Keeper. There is special food today
for Gyp and his Mother, and also for
every other Animal. And there was
even some Ice Cream for the Children,

ested in all they were doing.
"For the Giraffes he had hay and
vegetables. There was also some grain
and meal, and mulberry leaves for
which he had made a special trip to
get.
"The CRATES love mulberry leaves
almost better than anything else and
when Gyp saw what he was going to
have ms 1t was being put into his cage,
he waved his great long Neck about
and looked SO Happy!
"And instead of Water, the CRATES
had Milk. For they much prefer Milk
to water! And. Of course, this was a
Birthday Party, and they must have
their favorite dishes.
"The other Animals got many Goodies
they were especially fond of-and
every Animal md Child ate the Keep
er's treat-for everyone had just the
right thing.
"When 1t was time for all the Chill

the ground ard then went back up
again.
