Fairy Tale
"WARY GRAHAM bonner
PORCUPENE PARTY

The hairy badger from South Africa
had had his dinner. Then he had had
delightful bath or spray from the
hose. The keeper had given him this
and he had enjoyed it even more than
the visitors who had looked on
The hairy badger thought he was
very polite TO let such lot of people
watch him having his bath. Yes, he
thought he WAS most obliging
The white-nosed coati-mundi from
South America was having beauti-
ful time talking in his own grunting
fashion to one of the visitors who had
come to the 700.
He had had nice dinner and was
feeling particularly we'll
And it was nice 70 be a great pet.
Oh yes, that was particularly nice.
The striped tailed dog and the white
thrOated Sapajou We're together as
they always We're The white throated
sapajou looks exactly like Il monkey
and is little animal from South
America
The sapajou is just like monkey
IL all his looks
Now the sapajou and the striped
tailed dog had become great friends.

"A Splendid Feast"

No one knew just why. But the best
of friends they were.
And SO they lived together in their
zoo home as they had always been to-
gether since they had first seen each
other.
How happy they were together, 100 J!
The Sapajou was much interested in
the visitors and sat up close so he
could see them all and his little eyes
looked SO amused and as though he
were enjoying himself so much.
The striped-tailed dog, too, had come
from South America. And as the
sapajou watched the people he said
to himself. This is a wonderful show
seeing all the people pass along.
And gracious me, how many chill
dren there are. Well, | must say l
find groWn-ups and children very
amusing to watch. Yes, they cheer
me up-altogether | really am always
very cheerful. But they make me feel
SO jolly and so amused.
Now. while all these animals were
enioying themselves in their various
WAYS the four yellow-haired porcu-
pines were having a party.
And they were not paying scrap
of attention to the visitors They sat
ir Il circle with their backs turned
to the people.
In the very center of the circle was
a little bapy porcupine. And more
cunning little creature you never could
see, I'm sure!
He was very Small-nOt so very
much bigger than a guinea pig and YET
his parents were such enormously big
porcupines.
All of the four porcupines were very
very large.
The little one was sitting up too
lust the way they all did and he was
nibb.ing at lettuce and carrots ant
eating very grown-up food for a little
fellow only two weeks old.
For that was all he was. His par
ems had been born in Alaska and hi:
uncle and aunt had been born in th'
United States but he had been borr
in the 100 and he found it was yer,
nice.
A little porcupine is like little
guinea pig in the way it can eat any
thing right away.
There was a splendid feast for th'
norcupines and some of them wer
finishing off with dessert or brea
which many of the animals like s
| dessert.
oh YES, 1t was real porcupin
Marty but the one who felt like tn
guest of honor was the dear littl
hahv porcupine with his funny littl
| black body and his poor little at
tempts at quills.
But some day he would have enol
| mons ones like his parents. In tn
| meantime it was enough to eat an
eat and enjoy life. And the peopl
| looked through space between tw
of the porcupines so they could Sc
| the little, little, little fellow OF tn
zoo.

JEWETT CITY

On the freight yard siding is to DC seen the unusual sight Of seven liz steel gondolas of the hopper bottom type all coupled together in a string, Each ear is 0f 10000 carrying capacity, and each one is loaded to the limit with B tons of bi- luminous coal consigned to the Ashland Cotton con1sany, in all three hundred ana e5ght-fivS tons.
 4 n11mber of men remarking upon the unusual incident, noted an 5tenl in> it's manner of shipment that recalled times of 1Cng ago when there was no aH~ral coal This coal now on the track was brought by barge from tide=water ship ping blns to Allyn-s point, then unioaded for raii delivery to points north A man told of the time, forty years ago, when the present big coal gondola was unknown. At that time. well remembered by plenty of Jewett City people. long trains of Jimmy drInp cars carrying eight tons each were used to carry coal ID the Nor wich and Worcester railroad. Returning empty string of a hundred or more when frs started, would make a rattling, as the slack was taken up between each car that has never been heard since Then the re, 900 pounds of coal now here on the tracks in seven cars, would have been brought here from Allyns Point in fortiy- eight dump coal cars carrying tons apiece making a train that would fill ,he whola freight yard siding. and chen not be in to clear.
