THE MOUSE AND THE WIRELESS SET
At least one mouse has found that a radio set is useful. An English radio dealer was examining a radio set that had ceased to function. On making an internal examination, he found a piece of bread four inches long and three bones. How these came to be there he could not guess, yet they had been placed carefully among the wires. Further examination revealed a hole about the size of a shilling at the bottom of the back of the set. Through this hole a mouse had dragged sufficient food for a supper. How it was disturbed no one knows, but it was determined to have its supper without music, for one of the wires was cut through.
