"MAGGIE"
"We have a pet magpie, and he is just tho cutest thing out. lie is a. very intelligent little bird, and also very "nosey.". He liatcs strangers coming around our house, and we ea.n always .toll if anyone is. coming because "Maggie" always makes such a. fuss. One day Mother hung her fur out tho window to get an airing, and suddenly Maggie spotted it, and I have never seen anything so funny in all my life. He would strut up and down tho yard, then he would look up at tho fur, and then lie would throw back his head and sing. You could see that ho was quite annoyed that the .fur w.ts there because he thought it shouldn't be. Dad said Maggie most likely thought-the fur was an opossum." "MISS BILLY." Petone.
