'Tm q queer creature, l suppose"
said Peggy, the horse, to Sambo, the
other horse.
''What makes you say thatT asked
Sambo. 81 have never noticed that
you were queer at ALL"
"Well," said Peggy, 1--WE take people
out for rides and they admire the
beautiful scenery and the lovely views
and all of the wonderful country and
sights about these parts.
But they don't mean so much to
me. if anything at all"
''They don't mean so much to me,
either" said Sambo. "In fact, they
don't mean anything to me-"
''Well, perhaps I'm not queer, then"
said Peggy.
Perhaps I'm queer, too." said
Salnbo.
That's So" agreed Peggy, perhaps
that is the way it Is. But when l
hear the people rave so about the
scenery, l feel that must be queer.
"rhe scenery Is all right enough, but
l don't care about stopping and gazing
at it.
"Of course Pm willing enough to
stop and let them gaze at 1t. But l
would be as willing to stop one place
as another, though they have special
places that they want to stop.
I've grown so used to those places
and spots where people want to stop
and admire the view that 1 just natu-
rally slow up, for I know what they
are going to say if don't.
"They are going to say to our
driver:
:" oh, please, can't we stop and look
at this lovely view for a minute
$50 stop and save them all the
trouble of saying that. But 1t is

funny! How they do love views and
scenery. In the summer like stop
ping best of all, for then can eat the
grass along the way.
I'm the winter l don't mind stop
ping for rest once in while, but Pm
not so eager to stop In the winter as
l am in the summer
Still. like to take my little rests
and do it at just these certain points
when know the people are going to
ask to stop, anyway"
"Yes, and / do the same" said
Sambo. "But you're a bit lazier than
I am"
MY master says" Peggy agreed,
"that am lazier than you are. He
says that l always recognize a lady's
voice, and that / turn around and
see when there Is a lady in his car
riage, and then stop very often by
the views, and because, too, l know
the ladies like to see nice horse
rest, for don't love to work hard |
Though I'm not really lazy.
"Oh, yes, 1 know ladies when 1 see
them and when l hear them. I'm
bright enough for that. Indeed, yes
"Pd be stupid If 1 didn't know them,
and horses aren't stupid, they're intel
ligent."
''That's right" said Sambo, land our
master thinks we're an intelligent pair,
too. He is right, must admit it, he
Is right.
"But, Peggy, you have to admit that
along the roads where our master
takes us to drive or rather where we
take him, 1t is far more beautiful than
If we drove off in some other di-
rections where we would see quack-
quacking ducks and dull little houses.
"Yes, you must admit, we do go
through beautiful country"
Il admit it," said Peggy, "but III
tell you what l think Is a beautiful
sight.
YES I'll tell you what kind of a
sight would make me stand still and
admire"
"What" asked Sambo.:
"A pile of hay would be the most
beautiful view could imagine" said
Peggy. ''Yes, scenery may be all very
well, but the scenery love best is
the scenery of hayl
"And when see piles of hay in the
summer-well, then 1 see beautiful
countryl
"Oh, yes. scenery is all very well,
but give Peggy. the horse, hay every
time.
And after I've taken people for
