was not at All afraid that Jack would
hram him. hut Jack had ways and man

Johnnie Blackbirds happiness.
If there were any crumbs thrown
out in the yard near where they both
lived, Jack Sparrow would wait until
Johnnie was ready To fly down and
get some and then he would dart ahead
of him and get the biggest cr,unb.
Sometimes he would fly right in Johnnie
face and so scare him for fear II was
the cat pouncing a. him that off he
would fly, while from tree Jack Spar
row would call out. 'Fraidy-cat' Fraidy-
