"I>evelopment work on the ooal

any of them aa yet- We are still
driving on this roclc tunnel andi hope
to cut a, good vein within the next

"A few: daya ago we cut into a
small seam of dSrty coal and elate

to develop enough of it to make a

wanted to say to
everyone:

hens of nil kinds. and colors, red and
brown, gray, white, black and white,
and every other color you can thluk
of. They were all being exhibited at
t big show. But they were not the
only creatures at this show.
They tried, of course, to make Just
•s much noise as possible, so they
would be noticed more than any of
other animals.
Some of the Mrs. Hens were very
proud because there were baskets be
ing exhibited—not because the baskets
were so beautiful but because they
were filled with fine eggs which they
had laid. *
There were parrots and pheasants
with long tails at the show, and some
of the most beautiful bufT colorings.
Thev all talked and whistled and

cnatted and tried to say,
"Come to see us, come to see us.
We have gorgeous suits and feathers.
We have wondrous tails. Come to
■e« us."
Th»re were uiany pigeons at the
•how, too. They were also of all
colors, buff, white, gray, gray and
green, and brown and speckled tails.
Some of them were standing with
their tails out straight. Some of them
had their hejids held so far bark that
they were resting on their tails.
And some had their talis spread so
as to look their very best and were
strutting around talking softly to each
other and to the people.
They were trying to say, "Coo, coo,
coo, coo, come to see tis. We're quiet
and w-e don't make much noise but
we try to be sweet and gentle and
loving.
"You'll find there are many lovely
ones among us. Do come, coo, coo,
coo."
There were canaries, too, at the
show, and they kept chirping, "Come
and see us. we'll sing for you, we'll
cheer you up. Come and see us."
The gray cranes were each stand
ing on one leg. not because the other
was cold, but because they liked to
stand that way.
There were some carrier pigeons
there, too, and they said, "Come and
see us, come and see us. We're very
high up in society. We've carried
interesting mnll. We've carried in
vitations to flue affairs and have also
returned the answer. Come and see
m ana tveii tPn you 11T our own way
what It Is like to be postmen."
And far off, I^one corner of the
building were some dogs. They had
carried messages
and they had
saved many lives.
They hud risked
all dangers. They
had dared do
anything to help
their belov«d
masters or their
friends.
But these dogs
merely wagged
their talis when
any one went to
see them. They
didn't boast and
they didn't brag,
| fur somehow, be- ,.C00( C00j Coo>.»
I cause they had
done so much they felt they hadn't
j done anything.
But everyone said, "Those dogs are
the best anisials In the exhibition.
Just think of all they've done!"
And the dogs looked very grateful
and their tails wagged hard, but they
I barked a few modest little barks as
though to say. "You praise us en
tirely too much. It's really a fine ex
hibition and we're but a small part
of It. But we're very glad you like
us and as f«r what we did for our
masters and their friends—well, it was
nothing!"
But everyone knew it had been a
| great deal.
