 “worked like slaves” (40)

 Napoleon announces voluntary work on Sunday or “rations reduced by half”

misusing words intentionally, confuse the animals (not smart)

 windmill, major challenge breaking stones

 “desperate slowness” (41), “slow, laborious process” “exhausting effort”

 Boxer powerhouse/horse, get up earlier, tireless

 animals naturally better at some tasks (e.g.weeding)

 Napoleon opens trade (hay, eggs), employs Mr. Whymper, broker on commission

FREE ADVICE #14: If you want to know where the problem is, go look 

        in the mirror. Only you can fix it. Don’t blame 

        anyone else. Don’t rely on anyone else.

 Napoleon commits to rebuild windmill

 At this point in the novel, the rebellion has been lost. Napoleon has taken over as a dictator.
