UMBRELLA FOR A SQUIRREL
Don’t Like to Get Wot and Continuous
Rains Force Little Animats to
Make Use of Wits.
Tarrytown, N. Y.—Automobillsts
who drove down the Gorybrooke road
reported that as they passed William
Rockefeller's place they saw two gray
squirrels crossing the road with um¬
brellas over their heads to protect
them from the rain.
The story was laughed at when first
told, but Irving Revere drove Into
town, bringing along a dead gray
squirrel. Revere said the squirrel
had been hit by a car and near by was
a cabbage leaf. He said it explained
why so many gardens had been rav¬
aged of their large cabbage the last
two weeks.
When the squirrels found a leaf
large enough to cover their body they
would bite a small hole In it, put their
tall through and travel to and fro, pro¬
tected In their cabbage-leaf craven
ettes. Squirrels don’t like to get wet,
but It rained so long they were forced
to use their wits to keep dry, with
the above successful results.
