A boy who was asked by
his teacher to write an epsay
n liens produced the follow
ing: "Hens are curious ani
mals: they don't Lave no nose
nor teeth nor ears. They
tvallow their victuals whole
and chew them on the inside
of them. The outside of hens
is used fr pillows and mak
ing feather dusters. The in
side of heii is Komethingfilled
with marbles and shirt but
I mis, and such. A hen is
V3ry much smaller than many
other animals, but one hen
will dig up more garden stuff
than a whole army of any
thing thataint a hen. Ileus
i Trf very useful for laying
ggs for puddings. Hens
Inve wings and can fly when
t'iey become scared. I cut
off a hen's head with a hatch
et and it scared it to death.'

"OOOOOO00CO0O
JAPANESK AM) THE MULK
"So the Japanene rice grow
ers are not willing to tackle
that interesting native instu
tion, the American mule, with
ont the aid of home folk,"
Haiti an olwervant man, "and
I can see where they are right
about the matter. The A
merican mule in a long eared,
quick heeled, supple j'intd
invftery, and no man, no mat
ter how wiee he may be, can
do anything with him unlets
he have Hpeoial training. As
a matter of fact, the white
man in America is sadly defi
cient when it comes toa work
ing knowledge of the mule.
Up to tlie present writing the
American negro in the only
living person who can claim
anything like mastery when
it comes to the mule. Some
how there is something in the
nature of the black man and
the mule which makes it
easier for them to get along
together. Just what it is I
don't know. But even the
black man will have his ups
and downs now and thm with
the mule, and I have seen
some very interesting instan
ces of this kind, one of the
most amusing being that of
an extremely hard skulled
negro who never wanted a
better weapon than his head'
in any sort of couflict with
man or beast
' One day he fell out with
the mule. Ordinarily they
got along well enough togeth
er but in some way the mile
on the day in question made
the negro mad and the fighi
began. Ju the first place tin
negro broke his water j Ho
over the in; iit's head. Thi.
did not feaze the animal.
Grabbing the mule by the
earsand taking a good, fin;
grip, the black man landed
with vigor between the mule's
ears, using his head as u
- ml i
weapon, ine Diow was ft
knockout blow all right, but
the trouble was it knocked the
negro out also. Both mule
and negro fell to the ground
as if dead . In a short while
both were up again and after
that they were fairly good
friends. The Japs are right.
They will need special train
ing on the mule proposition
and no mistake, and the negro
is about the beet man they
can get to do the training."
