Volcano

Volcano was the stubbornest
pony on the ranch. He simply re
fused to let any one ride him. He
was fond of running about over the
vast prairie and he didn't intend
that any one should tame him and
put him to work.

I'm not going to be sold as a
slave. Any one tries to ride me
will have trouble, I'm here to tell
you"
Before long Volcano had a good
chance to carry out his threat. A
cowboy had come out to look over
the horses and had selected the
lively Volcano. And so Volcano
was roped and brought in to be
ridden. Other cowboys had tried to
break the colt before, but without
success. >They warned the buyer,
but he seemed determined to try
the pony.
First thing Volcano knew the
man was on his back. Here's
where | show him some tricks"
thought Volcano and proceeded to
buck and race all over the place.
The man seemed to be a master
rider, however, and it was a long
time before the pony succeeded in
him.

Porky was home from the fair.
He had returned in state, wearing
blue ribbon, winner of the first
prize.
The barnyard seemed hardly
large enough to hold him now. He
had been big enough to begin with,
but the honors received at the
county fair made him puff out
with new Importance.
He lay in the mud of the pigpen
and talked as long as any one
would listen. "You should have
seen the crowds" he would say.
