Villeneuve came to the rescue last week when a "blue stocking" partridge, determined to improve it's mind, crashed through the front window cf the Haileybury Public Library and proceeded to inspect the available books. Becoming morg and more in- censed at the lack of books dealing with woodland politics, it flew madely around, dashing books to the floor and creating a general uproar. However, Mr. Villeneuve, us- ing great tact and diplomacy, succeeded in capturing the bird and péace and quietness reigned once more; at least in Hailey- bury. Later in the week, in Cochrane Mrs. T. Mackey, hearing a knock at her door, opened it to find a partridge on the step. It flew into a nearby tree and remained there for some. time but was gone again in the moring. Question--Coud it be the same one that tried to find lodging in Haileybury? If so, after being put out of Haileybury, and hay- ing to spend the night in a tree in Cochraffe, what will it tell its friends about the hospitality of the North?
