My Nancy Is as trim and charming

should protect her. Since she dedicat-

in the barnyard she has seen little of
the outside world. Indeed she is one
of the least sophisticated OF her kind.
l had right to be alarmed when
a dissOlute vagabond of dog leaped

have misdoubted a creature of such
gymnastic ability, however much she
smelled like simple sheep.
He boldly approached her; she tried
to discourage his attentions and set
good example to the colts by main
tanning cold and unseeing gaze. He
came the closer. Now She stepped
away, stifiy, very much on her dignity.
He followed up. She stood still. OBJ

planned to catch her by the throat.
Cautiously he edged over to the side !;
she let him come. He gathered him

arose, she flashed about; he landed
with his diaphragm poised on her slen-
der horns.
A fatal injury was not within her
power, but it was not needed. He
sprawled to earth with an anguished
yelp. lit running, and cleared the gate
at his second leap. That was no gay
