Cat Saying Developed
By Practicing Ancestors
The old and now time-worn
expression, "let the cat out of
the bag," had implications not
too complimentary as to the
actions of some of our ancestors,
or whoever it was that coined
the expression in the first place.
This ''letting the cat out- of
the bag" untortunatcly still has
a disgraceful significance today.
Neither is If complimentary to
some of today s people wno,
never having anything to do
wun uie coining ui autu an ca
Dression, nevertheless try to dis
pose of surplus cats or kittens
by carrying them out into the
country and dropping them,
probably bag and all, leaving
them to lorage lor wemscives
This abandonment of unwant
ed animals. is a, cruel and too
freauent practice, it is a saa
commentary on supposedly civ
ilized people. The still sadder
part is the prevalence of the
act; it occurs near every city
and nearly every day.
Prolific Animals
Admittedly, cats are prolific
animals, Parenthood comes-easy
for them. As a result, the world
is burdened with literally mil
lions of homeless and unwanted
little cats. . .
Many eat wnci'9, Mlebhn;
themselves pressed for time or
trying to save a buck, l-hirik- wiey

The catin-the-bag formula
seems to be standard procedure,
and has been fop many, many
years. Probably it is easier to
carry awaj a cat in a bag than
