Bird Cat Dragged in Sings
maryland My Maryland"

HAGERSTOWN, Md. Oct. 25.
The accomplishments of a gifted
bird Of unknown origin or species
literally has this town by the
ears.
Four years ago it was just
something which Mrs. L. B. Belts
pet cat dragged in. Today it is
a community marvel and its &C.
complishments as vocalist, con-
versationa1ist. singer and imi-
tator are topics of household con-
verSationS.
This bird whose neck is de-
void of feathers, whose purple
wings are spotted and whose
beak is long and pointed, not only
trills the airy measures expected
Of feathered creatures endowed
with musical powers, but it &C.
tually sings-words as well as
music. w
Maryland, My M E is
one of the favorite nth - l
it's repertoire. Its natural vu1oO
is a lyric soprano, but its range
embraces tenor with ease and
bass notes are struck with fire.

Quency.
The clever unknown also talks
and INDUCES its keen sense Of
humor in limitations Of the ami
NAL world. It's limitations of the
barking of the family dog are
realistic and its rendition Of the
clarion, if raucous. can of the
emperor of the chicken yard is
asserted to have deceived favor
ite members Of the ROSTERS
harem.
The early origin Of the bird
is one Of mystery. It's history
goes back to an occasion four
years ago when Mrs. Belts cat
returned from a predatory ex-
pedition with the feathered crea.
ture in it's mouth. The bird was
rescued by a delivery boy who
gave it to Mrs. Belts. She nursed
it back to health and strength.
Filled with gratitude the little
creature responded to kindness
and soon learned to express it
self in song. In a short time it
had mastered two stanzaS Of
