Burma, whose only surviving offspring and companion was killed by a dog some time ago, left home last Sunday morning, stayed away for an hour and a half and came home with a newborn kitten. The Paulsens, absolutely positive that the kitten doesn't belong to Burma, decided she had stolen the animal and promptly named it "Catnap." The entire episode has baffled the Paulsens and their three daughters. Mrs. Paulsen reports that after Burma's companion wa6 killed, she mourned intensely, was peevish and mean and refused to let anyone pet or play with her. "Her personality has completely changed," Mrs. Paulsen said yesterday. She's gentle and loving and we are allowed to pet her again." However, Mrs. Paulsen thinks that if conditions keep on, her disposition may change, too. "This getting up two or three times a night to feed a tiny kitten with a doll bottle is for the birds," she said with a groan. Mrs. Paulsen is feeding the tiny kitten Carnation canned milk, and says apparently it is thriving. Mrs. Paulsen doesn't have to re member feeding time herself Burma brings Catnap, who doesn't have her eyes- open yet, and lays her at Mrs. Paulsen's feet. She watches and purrs while Catnap takes her bottle. The family thinks maybe Catnap is a Manx, since she is tailless. Although Mrs. Paulsen and her three daughters are feeding and caring for Catnap, they'd rather have another Siamese as a companion for Burma. Altrusa club's Twelfth District governor, Mrs. Dorothy Donnely, attended an anniversary dinner of the Medford club Thursday night wearing borrowed clothing. Mrs. Don nely, who lives in Renton, Wash., arrived safely at 6:15 p.m. by air, but her luggage went south with the plane. With about an hour to dinner time, Mrs. D. was wringing her hands. The resourceful president of the local club, Myrta Otter dale, looked at her guest with a calculating eye, and took her home. A short time later the two women arrived at Rogue Valley Country club, both wearing becoming gowns and jewelry from Miss Otterdale's wardrobe. If you like instant coffee, but think maybe the brand you're using could be improved, try another. According to Mrs. Wallace Ragsdale. who spoke on "Instant Coffee" for a recent meeting of Lake, Creek Extension unit, you won't have any trouble finding a new type. There are 360 different brands of this beverage which it is said, is growing more popular daily. "Coffee isn't a drink" is was said at the meeting. "It's an emotion." Grass and flowers aren't all that sprouts in the spring. Mrs. A. A. Schrein says bandages sprout, too. Last week Mrs. Schrein's four children managed at least one wound apiece, she reports, and one son sported an assortment. The total count included a burn, one mashed finger, one hand with hole punched through it and numerous abrasions and contusions. If the Japanese privet which the city's merchants have planted in containers along Main street doesn't grow, at least one Medford mother believes that the containers should be left empty. This mother parked her car, and got out holding her baby, purse, keys and what not. She at tempted to get money out of her purse to put in the meter, juggled the baby, handbag and keys for a time and finally ended up by plunking the baby down in the circular con crete pot which hadn't yet been filled with soil and privet tree. "What a handy thing," she remarked, as she retrieved the baby and went on her way to shop.

For, in our time, the only quarrel worth while is that of mankind. It is mankind tnat it is a question oi saving, oi being made to live and to develop. "Why should we not put together a percentage of our raw materials, our manufactured goods, our food products, some of our scientists, technologists, economists, some of our trucks, ships, aircraft-to vanquish misery, develop the re ViPln th work of less developed peoples? Let us do this-not that they should be the pawns of our policies, but to improve the chances ot me ana peace, now muui more worth while that would be than all the territorial de mands, ideological pretentions, imperialist ambitions which are leading the universe to its death." These are the words of President de Gaulle of France tho first, nress conference ever held by a French president. William H. Stringer of the Christian Science Mon ZA.JZ oranH r.harles" with his words "in a lior ueucvca ma t' few mild sentences took the play away from Premier Khrushchev and pushed the problem of Berlin way down on the world calendar of urgent events-down to where it belongs-and elevated the problem of helping the vast under fed and harassed hordes of this earth." Correspondent Stringer concluded: "Someone in high office is needed who can add up these sordid behaviours now and then in flaming words that the world will heed and then can point the way to better behaviour and dare the Communists to take the better path."r-O.S.
