If you eventually get an ice cube with a contact lens in it. contact Clarno."

Bats and Skunks Find Home in Old Log House By VIOLA ROGERS Mail Tribune Correspondent Tiller-Drew - Mrs. Norman Brown and her three daugh ters find the wild life in the old log house they recently moved into both intriguing and annoying. First it was bats in the bel fry. At least they assumed the bats were in the belfry dur ing the daylight hours. At night they swept across the bedrooms, coming quite near the children's faces at times. The bats frightened the two older girls into moving down stairs but the youngest daugh ter, Cheryl, just giggled and enjoyed the bats. Now the bats are gone and the visitor is a civet cat. He wanders about ' the house as though he owns it. He travels from one end of the house to the other between the walls and quite frequently comes out and wanders about the rooms upstairs and down. As yet he hasn't used any Chanel No. 5 or whatever it is that skunks use, not even when the children run after him as he thumps up the stairs. One day Mrs. Brown be came concerned about him be cause he spent the day run ning between the walls as If he had lost his exit place. She thought if he ever came out he'd be mighty thirsty so she put a pan of water on the lowest stair step. Sure enough the next time she heard him he was lapping water from the pan. The skunk annoys the Browns because they are afraid if he leaves the house he will find their chickens and kill them, and if he stays in the house they are'afraid that sooner or later he will eject the product of his two perine al glands.
