it Is Easy To Make
Friends with Jim 'Crow
By ARTHUR N. PACK
t, The American Nature
Association -
It is all a matter of how you go
about“ it in making friends with
birds and animals. Jim Crow is one
of the easiest friends to make if you
techie the job right. and the story
that Grace F. Hadley writes in to us
is interesting enough to repeat.
“Jimmy Crow Was brought from
the country when only a few days
old." she tells us. '"His only food
for days was dsh worms. raw meat
and hm crumbs soaked in milk.
Harry on during the day he was
taken out of the box. and exercised
his wings and legs.‘
”A few days more and he was
able to hop on the edge of the box
unassisted. Each day he Ventured
a little farther, dying back many
times and seeming to try to tell us
where he had been. .
"On rainy days Jim was buy
playing with toys. among them a
rubber ball. He would bring bones
andfooq to play with. his loved to
hide things. Jim would pull the cor-
ner of am back with his bill.d

Candy he would take from the lips
and never once touch the mouth.
Thesu are only a few of Jim's tricks.
“llut ouwush day he had to amuse
himself ulouc, shut up in the base-

but it was :1 case of have-to. or do
the washing over. Left out. he would
take the pins out as fast as one
could put them on the clothes.
“He would catch on tho gar-

with his bill and feet and swing
merrily for several minutes. So it
was the lmscmcnt for Jim on Mon-
