farmer by carefully avoiding
chicken yards; he was wise
enough to know that von
grance would be swift and
sure if he substituted domes
tic fowl for wild game. He
was living tip to the reputa
tinn credited to his kind, by
being "foxy."
Mirny people knew this gray
fox: tbry had seen him often
trotting along bcilde the
country road. Some could even
remember seeing him In wide
ly separated places. They
could recognize him easily;
his right ear had once been
badly torn, and now it flop
ped; actually appeared not to
be on the head at all In the
half light of moonlit night.
Hunting parties, with
hounds, had stirred the gray
lox many times; had chased
him repeatedly. The fox's den
was cleverly hidden in the
trunk of a hollow log, and
sheltered by an overgrowth
of vines and bushes. Here sev
eral families had been raised;
here, Ino. the female gray fox
waited while he. apparently
wiser, ranged out allot rab
bits, mitf, and other small
game that he faithfully
brought to her and the kids.
Sounds al Night
In the late fall of every
year, folks in. the neighbor
hood would listen to the hay

and knew that again a minting
party was on the trail of the

would reveal Ihe fact that the
fox had been "run" for some
time but as usual, was lost,
in the same general area.
The hound park could al
ways follow the trail while it
skirted homos and through
pooplo's backyards but lost
ihe trail when the fox entered
the vicinity of a country ceme

my grandchildren, Hilda's
sons. I seem to be at the bot
tom of her list when it comes
to people she likes to see. I
don't deserve such coldness.
Hilda N.-It's rather late In
the game for my mother to
expect me to feel close to
her. All through my child
hood she made me feel like
the fifth wheel on a wagon.
Who needed me around? She
had three daughters and then
along came me, Hilda, to
make It four. If I'd been a
boy, well, that would have
been another story.
I was always happier
among friends than with my
family. In school the kids
liked me. Av report-card time
if 1 did well there was no
comment at home, but when
my marks- slipped my mother
bawled me out for days. She
seemed extra severe with me.
My sisters got her smiles and
her special services. But when
II came to shortening a dress
for me or helping me prepare
for a party she begged off.
Even though she's my mother
we have little in common.

Th Ceuncili Here's Hilda
saying thai because she never
felt close to her mother she's
not going to start now. It's
like refusing to look out of a
window on the other side of
the train. Why shut out the
possibility of a pleasant
vista';
There are many factors
which Can interfere with a
mother and daughter "hilling
II off right." As the youngest,
Hilda may have drawn the
most tired mother. And there
was a father on the scene
who unconsciously may have
treated Hilda as "my baby
girl," championing her as
against; her mother. The In
evitable "comparing" of treat
ment among four Utile girls
can also contribute to a
"case" against the mother by
one who feels bested, ignored
and frustrated. Rightly or
wrongly, Mrs. E. is the scape
goat In Hilda's life.
To Hilda we submit the
thought that having a scape
goat is an evasion, an ex
cuse, and thai she would do
well to look further than her
mother for the causes of her
malaise and pique.
And to Mrs. N. we bring
a reminder Ihat one cannot
force love. II doesn't spring
fullbloom at the push of a
button. It begins with liny
strands of gentleness which
gradually interweave Into a
soft caressing fabric. At pres
ent Hilda cannot but feel that
her mother lurns to her be
cau.se the other daughters
have fled. I'm like the "any
port in a storm" which ship
wrecked travelers turn to.
she thinks. So Mrs. N, cannot
hope to replace those from
whom Hilda Is now deriving
comfort and reassurance. Bui
she has an Inside track to
ward respect and friendship
from her daughter.
Naturally neither woman
has given us the whole story
behind her feelings. Even so.
the future is what counts
now. And Hilda would do
well to bear in mind that little
eyes - her children's - and
little ears are around, record-
