A PARROT AT BREAKFAST
I know a funny parrot who, when the breakfast bell rings, will push' open the door of her cage with her bill, fly down to the breakfast table, take her own chair, which she always knows, and wait till the family assemble. If they should not gather as quickly as she thinks they ought to, she will call out, "Hurry up, folks, hurry up!" and at the same time hop over to the oatmeal dish and attempt to lift the cover. She is very fond of oatmeal, and will make 'her entire breakfast of/ lit*, After finishing her breakfast she flies back to her cage.
