“An African Monkey from a tree drops on the back of an ostrich, thinking he will have a grand ride. The ostrich starts. The pace gets quicker. Quicker still! The monkey hangs on by the bird's neck. Still quicker! Bongo puts the brake on by flinging his tail round a palm tree as they scud by, checking the ostrich, but snapping the tail in the sudden strain. Tears and tribulation!”
