"My father," continued Grandmoth- er, "had a large flock of turkeys There was one of them that I thought was much handsomer than any of the others and my father ia I vould have it for mine. I named it Bluey for it had such lovely bluish and green feathers. It would come to me when I called and had many privileges that the other turkeys didn't enjoy. "Qne day my father came into ihe house and said: "One of the setting hen-turkeys had either eaten an ezg or the mice have gotten at them and I am going to watch and see."

" "I ran into the house shoutinz.to my father that I had discovered what was stealing the eggs and when 1 told him he Bluey had done it he said: "Bluey is certainly a smart turkey. When my father started to take the stolen eggs away from Bluey she flew at him in a great rage so that he finally decided to leave them there for Bluey to hatch. "When I went out to the barn one morning there was Bluey with eigh- teen tiny turkeys around her ard she was looking as proud as could be. Sometime I will tell you how Bluey adopted some little turkeys."
