The author (Ben Kessen) of this booklet, fully realized the need, giving his experience and the results of his close study and research. For over fifteen years, he had devoted time, money, and careful effort toward learning all about this ideal pet. His findings clarify many points on the handling, feeding, care, and actions peculiar to the little glider.
