andrews lawn and the dogs wen playing with the little boy jimmie i felt a dog come in back of me and nose my neck and i reached around absent minded- ly to pet him as i talked my fingers felt something that didn t seem like a dog so i turned around there was a colt so tiny one could almost put her in a pocket she looked down at me with impish eyes and lipped my out stretched hand then she kicked up a pair of miniature heels and cavorted off racing with the dogs as if she were a dog too jimmie joined the race and soon the colt and tne boy were tumbling on the grass like two puppies jimmie s father laughed that 5 calamity jane he said and told us the colt s story she was named cal amity because early in her life she had known tragedy her mother was an indian pony and when the colt was still very wobbly she got separated from her mother when horses were rounded up on the reservation the mother headed off toward the hills with a wild band and because calam ity couldnt keep up she was thrown in with the herd of captured ponies when the riders were ready to start home they waited around thinking that the mother would return for her colt evidently she was too frighten ed for she didn t come back the men didn t want to go away and leave such a young colt alone so jimmies father brought her home from then on the andrews family as busy the colt became a bottle baby cows milk with sugar in it was fed to her every two hours jimmie and his mother and fatheaxworked in shifts feeding calamity they even had u get up to the night to feed her colts ire in the habit of nursing often 1 and not drinking too much at a time ord r for calamity to live and grow she must be on a schedule as much as possible like the one mother nature plans for colts calamity soon forgot her mother but i often think how the poor little wild mare must have hunted for her foal and called for her across the hills calamity made herself at home she regarded the andrews family as her parent ina six whinnered vhrillv hen ceding time came around thty said she grei to be like an alarm clork she ns allowed her freedom around the ranch und it aai ht r delight to come in the house with the dogs eerj llmi the door was op n she was as much 1 horn in the house as she wis in 1 barn in fact too much for arl me rromtng slit got the back dno on n and wilkei in to explore the kitchtn somehow someway he got the ir box open and enjoyed a llghtful time until she awikened the family and wis illterall thrown out ij fore she was disooered she had scrambled the breakfast egks all oer the floor re h id picked out the to matook one ov oiw and squeezed uiem- to pulp berore ahej joined the eggs she ate 1 lead of lettuce and was de i lurhtod with a chocolate bar that was the proprn of young jimmie when she tared of the ice box perhaps her little nose got too cold she sampled uie kitchen curtains they were pret t good so she tore them all down mrs andrews was worried because ahead of her was the job of cleaning the kitchen jimmie lelt badly because his randy was gone but mr andrews was frightened lor fear calamity would have indigestion she didn t now calamity is nearly half a year old and she is turning into a roan pony very pretty she has beautiful trjn legs and a lovely ittle head and she is everyoncs friend mr andrews says she will never be bigger jian a minute and she won t be worth five cents but he wouldn t take fhc hun dred dollars for her now the family are going to move to another state and ail the horses must be sold except of course cal amity when buyers come to look ai horses calamity is the first to greet them mr andrews protests that she is interfering with sales for people start playing with her and don t care to look at the others everyone wants to buy her if anyone drops a hand kerchief calamity gravely picks it up and hands it to him then politely of fers to shake hands by the time she has followed anyone across the pasture that person is sure to ask to buy her nope mr andrews says my boy jimmie would make life miserable for me if i sold that colt but that isn t the only reason the feet is that charlie andrews horse trader has at last found an animal he hadnt the heart to trade off calamity has won him completely 80 i have a mental picture of andrews famqy moving mother and father- will be to the front seat ol the car and in back with the
