Fred F. Prior of Ashland, 111.,
says his wife is right proud of
a bowl of gold fish she has at
home. Two little fish and one
big one. Also among the family
pets is a fish-loving cat.
For a long time the cat was
content to "set and watch," as
rred pui u, "purring once in a
while." But finally it pawed up
to the rim of the bowl and had
a direct look.
"That big fish let him have
It," says Fred. "He did a quick
turn around the bowl, swished
his tail and water splashed the
Tabby in the puss. The cat
doesn't have much use for fish
any more."

so fertile that he has to fetch
along a machete when he walks
through his half-acre to peel
the shoots from his peg leg.
Mrs. Joseph Warren of Man
chester, la., has a friend who has
a cousin in Arkansas.
This cousin of the friend loves
nothing better than to go pos
sum hunting. But like his hound
dog, he's lazy. Lazier than the
dog, in fact. So the cousin of
the friend educated the hound;
taught the pup to do all the
hunting.
"This cousin of my friend,"
the lady writes, "went even far
ther than that. He cut boards the
size of the possum skins he
would like to have. Then he'd
show it to the dog and away
the dog would go and bring
back the right size possum.
