An elementary school teacher, it is said, received this report from one of her young students:
The bird I am going to write about is the Owl.
The Owl cannot see at all by day and at night is as blind as a bat.
I do not know much about the Owl, so I will go on to the beast which I have chosen to write about. It is the Cow.
The Cow is a mammal. It has six sides: right, left, upper, and below. At the back it has a tail on which hangs a brush. With this it sends the flies
away so they do not fall into the milk.
The head is for the purpose of growing horns and also so there will be someplace for the mouth to go. The horns are to butt with, and the mouth is to
moo with.
Underneath the Cow hangs the milk. It is arranged for milking. When people milk, the milk comes, and it never runs out. How the Cow does this I do not
know, but it is true.
The Cow has an excellent sense of smell. It can be smelled from far away. This is the reason why there is lots of fresh air in the country.
The Man Cow is called the Ox. The Ox is not a mammal.
The Cow does not eat much, but what it eats it eats twice, so it will get enough to eat. When a Cow is hungry, it moos. When it is quiet, it is
because its inside is all filled up with grass.
The Cow usually sleeps all night, so it never sees the Owl. I haven't seen one, either. But I have seen a Cow.
Received from Thomas Ellsworth.
