away and the boys followed. A
mounted policeman joined in the
chase and men and boys followed. A
mounted policeman took up the scent
until nearly a hundred other persons
were hotfooting after poor little Mr
Prairie Dog, who headed for the
sheep pastures.
There was great excitement among
nurse girls, who grabbed their charg

mouth to mouth went the word that
a lion, tiger and a wolf had escaped,
and were roaming the park in a hunt
for some nice fresh baby meat. But
the policeman allayed the fears of the
girls when he returned with a bag
containing the escaped "wild mon
ster" which was dropped back into
