IL • long hot day —Bartlesville Ex- v m
sas City Star.)    |
Five A. M —Have Juat come out
from a sort of trance during which
much must have happened. I have
no memory of my past. Perhaps it U
best so. I am told that I was once
one of these white crawling crea-
tures called maggot* of which thous
ands are all about me. 1 refuse to
believe it'I feel strangely weak.
f> 10 A. M -Stronger now and my
legs feel more as if they really be-
long to me. Have queer, gauzy thin «
on my shoulders; they seem to be
of no use. It is very dark, close,
and warm here I believe that the
place is called manure pit. and am
told that I was born here. Keep
thinking of these maggot creature*
Strange how bothersome one's or-
igin may be
5:!0 A. M.- Have crawled all over
the pit and explored every part
Made some acquaintances among
young flies like myself. Also have
a speaking acquaintance with a few
old fliea who have come here to
lay eggs. Kear that maggot legend is
true. I blush for my youth. The to?
of this place is being opened I won-
der what it means.
5 45 A. M—Out in the world at
last! The pit and the maggots are
but a memory. The queer things og
my shoulders are wings and lifted
me out of the pit. Am now reating
on a stable window. Feel light head-
ed and hungry. Life is very interest-
ing—If one can forget one's origin.
4> A. M.—The most entrancing od
or* come apparently from a can out
side the back door of a provision
shop Just across the alley from my
stable. I must investigate.
6:30 A. M.—1 was right shout the
ran. Have spent the last half hour
there In company with a thousand
or more of my own kind simply
gorging—fish, offal, delicious bits of
rotting meat and decayed fruit and
vegetables. We fairly wallowed in It
What misfortune if someone should
forget and put the cover on the can.
7:15 A M.-Am inside the provis-
ion can. No end of fun! Already
knew the Juciest, tendereat cuts of
meat. Have sampled cheese, cookies,
cakes and berries. Always walk over
and examine a thing thoroughly be-
fore eating it; It pays.
I S A. M—Have the wanderlust.
Must see more of the world. Nothing
else would tempt me to leave the
provision shop. Only drawback is
persistent annoyance by huge 2-irg
ge<i creatures who are forever b1i;>-
11:15 A. M—Buna hot. Believe
HI take to cover. Nice looking house
with bole in screen. Think I'll try
12:03 P. M.—launch Is on the ta
ble; think I'll alt down with the fam-
ily. Not equal to the garbage can
but does very well.
1I:(K P. M.—Just witnessed a ter-
rible accident. A brother fly was
drowned in a plate of soup. Won
der if the germ things washed off
the fly's legs will annoy the man
who has just swallowed the soup.
1    P. M.—Discovery of importance
Paper covered with what looks like
molasses is a trap for flies. Now I'm
wise. They can't stick me. Some-
what Ured.
2    P. M — Never touched me. Old
duffer trying to sleep objects tohav-
ing me walk on hia bald bead.
Missed again! This would be exclt-
inf if there was more danger.
3 P. M. Nothing of interest here
but the cuspidor. Have explored
that thoroughly. Phew! More of
those germ things. I'm a mess! Me
for a place to wash them off.
3 30 P. M —Rid of most of ’em
at last. Wiped some off on bread
and butter the woman next door
wu* preparing for the children and
washed off some In s cup of milk
for the baby in the third ' house
down. Nice baby. Hope he likes the
germs.
4.    P. M.—Room darkened Nothing
doing. Guess I'll rest s bit.
5.    P. M.—Signs of preparation for
dinner. Think I'll visit the kitchen
and help.
5:45 P. M.—Walked over and sam
pled every particle of food In sight.
Does very well, but I'll certainly look
up a new garbage can the first thing
tomorrow morning. Got rid of the
last of those germs in the butler
Feeling sleepy. Think I'll retire to
the ceiling for the night,
7 P. M —This has been a most
satisfactory day. After all life is
what you make it no matter what
your origin. From* the manure pit to
the pick of the best the land affords
Is going some. In fact 1 begin to
take some pride in my humbleness of
birth. Glad I’m rid of those annoying
germs. There's a pitcher of milk
someone has forgotten to put in the
refrigerator. Guess I’ll take a night-
cap from that and then sleep in prep-
aration for a busy day tomorrow.
