whether YOU know that there are two performances

The robin usually opens the morning opera with his
wonderful solo "Cheery cheerily cheer up" perfor-

trained but powerful voices.
We wish the bluejay had taken a course in voice

source of much disgust to the sweeter solosts.
The cat bird is the comedian and his gurges
squeaks and meows funny. but we would much
rather hear him sing according he GER
