chael Ravoleie, OF the Second North
school East Hartford. that he Is to have
a medal for rescuing an imprisoned rob-
in lew days ago
Little Michael had to climb an elm
tree scyenty-ilve TO eighty feet high to
effect the rescue. The robin had flown
to one Of the topmost branches with
long string in its bill for nest building.
The string caught in stout twig and as
the robin worked to get 1t free the
string tangled itself into a double hitch
about one Of its legs II was thus held
prisoner and was noticed for two days
hepleSsly trying to work itself loose
and squcaking plaintlvely.
Michacl's school fellows were talking
about the bird and he asked them to
lead him to the elm Ii took him more
than half an hour to work his way To
the top of the tree. And at the last OF
the job it required nerve and GOODNESS,
for he was on very slender and swaying
branches
But he managed to reach the twig to
which the string had fastened itself and
snapped II of. With this hanging TO
its leg the robin iluttered to the ground,
was released and flew off, wildly chirp-
ing at its restored freedom.-New York
