It certainly was great sight. Then they passed around the community water pipe, which after few puffs would lay them out to sleep.
 Oh, say, did you ever see a duck boat? Well, all along here you see these peculiar boats with oyerhanging sides equipped to accommodate some thing like 1000 ducks. They land at new grazing place each day, throw down a bamboo gangplank and herd them like sheep-a call will bring back
