But Sluggish Anaconda Eats Only One Meal in Six Weeks. August Chipmunk stole away from his keeper at the Zoo the other day and paid his first visit to Obediah Elephant, just as Obe was putting his daily meal to bed. August didn't expect such an extraordinary spec- tacle, for he was under the impres- sion that the elephant ate about as much as he did, or a little more, perhaps.

Astonished and astounded, August couldn’t speak for several minutes. Down In the corner of the inclosure Obe saw the bewildered chipmunk and inquired after the reason of his queer expression. “You must eat more than any ani- mal in this park,” Chip replied. $1 a-Day to Live. “I do,” boasted Obediah. “I hold | the record as the heaviest eater in the Zoo, but I am not as expensiv. he explained. “My food only costs the government $1 a day, but young Percival Sea Lion, down the hill, pulls about $2.10 out of the Treasury daily. He must have thirty pounds of fish each twenty-four hours or he makes everybody miserable by bark- ing and honking.” The elephant continued to divulge the food consumption of the other animals, at the conclusion of which August proudly declared: “Then I eat the least of anybody out here. I am by far the best asset the government has. All I get are a few seeds and some fruit now and then, which costs about 50 cents a month,” “I am not so sure about your dis- AMBU[ANEE’ CORPS | VETERANS TOMEET it l More Than 500 Delegates |’ Expected to Gather in Washington. | [ The fourth annual reunion of the United States Army Ambulance Serv- ice Assoclation is to be held at the New Ebbitt Hotel, July 12, 13 and 14.
