the noisy pigeons that used to
whoop it up under his eaves.
He must have tried m dozen
ways to scare them off. But no
matter what he did, they would be
right back eooing*by his window
the next morning.
Then Easy thought of an old
stuffed owl he had in hi* attic He
propped it on the roof go's all
the pieeon* rould see it. They left
.. . and three hoot n* Is ha* e taken
their place. Easy iwear* the Smit-
