Show Har d on the Canary. A little West Somerville girl was punished one day for something she had done which she was told not to do. While her eyes were wet with tears she demanded of her mother, with a pout, "Well, who told you?" "Oh, a little bird told ma" As the mother left the room she heard the child turn toward the innocent canary ca-nary which hung in a cage near the window win-dow and with infantile spite say, "Mean old tattle tale, tattle talel" The "little bird" story worked well that time surely.
