WOODS Tibetha, the proud, young mother cat, part Persian and nicely striped in gray, has gone back to Toronto, She gave birth to four male kittens early in the season, but, alas, the smallest baby — the favorite as it resembled the father with a streak of orange on it, — died on a trip to Parry Sound. Sorrowfully, the folks digged a little grave under a tree on the roadside and committed the darling to mother earth. They even marked the spot with a stone. It reminded Lucy of her girlhood when she had a mischievous black kitten with a white shirt front. When it died, she had a burial and left an inscription on a stone which may still rest under the lilac trees up at her former home on Main Street. And when she visited Cousin Will Woods at Stanley Villa (on the present site of Marsville) she usually went out to decorate the graves of favourite dogs of his which had been buried in a corner of the garden and marked with stones — no attempt at poetry on them! Tibetha is a right proper little mother. She was raised on cat food herself but instinct taught her that in this chaotic world, her sops should know how to obtain their own food. They hardly had their eyes open when she came over to the west border at "The Hut" and caught a nice fat mouse, Trouble was she didn't use much discretion about where she ate it. The folks were having lunch when Tibetha decided to crunch her tidbit in front of her kittens, Onca, Cetin and Natasha. The lady of the house was obliged to get up from the table and leave the room hurriedly. The kittens appeared to pay no attention, but their mother kept coming back and taking more home. One day she was watching in the weeds when the family was ready to go on a trip. The mother cat was quite upset because the lady of the house grabbed her by the tail and carried her off without her prey. In a few days, she was back at the cottage again and visiting the tall weeds and shrubs at the back of the garden. Quite regularly she carried home mice until she finally coaxed the kittens to taste freshly killed meat. One day she caused great sadness both to the folks at the cottage' and "The Hut" as she took a female cardinal to her boys. All those concerned are ardent bird watchers. However, the lady of the house explained to the daughter stricken with sadness that her Tibetha would kill a lovely cardinal: "You see, it is the old law of averages." The old yellow Tomcat which Carl feels drove Sandi away again in June, has been having noisy arguments with "Dribbles" across the road. It is much more noticeable when the family is away. Dribbles stands her ground. Isn't it his own summer house? But now old yellow reigns supreme as "Dribbles" has also gone back to Toronto. Tibetha will not have so much cause for hunting. Onca and Cetin went to a home in Port Credit. So she had only Natasha to take back to Toronto and she wouldn't have had him if it hadn't been supposed Natasha was a female kitten. Portuguese names are a bit confusing to Canadians. Nevertheless, Tibetha had to be called home to leave,with the family and Lucy saw the pretty young matron of the cat world, running down the driveway and across the road, fore once without a mouse hanging limp from her jaws.

J. Cochrane, director fit education, were approved, by the. county school board last month. One policy statement dealt with organization and lines of responsibility within the school system. Another policy endorses use of outdoor school facilities, by individuals, groups or team from the community whenever possible without interference. with regular or extra-curricular. school programs, Requests for use of the facilities should be channelled through individual principals. The board will take no responsibility for accidents involving persons or property. - It will be the principals' responsibility to establish oversee student funds. All funds raised by student organizations are to be deposited as soon as possible in a chartered bank and accounts are to be paid with the principal or teacher delegated by the principal as staff advisor acting as co-signer. The board will encourage and permit pupil 'participation in debating, public speaking, essay writing and drama competitions at the discretion of the education director. The board may accept donations of funds, books and equipment with all such gifts becoming board property, although the intent of the donor is always to be considered. • The board will discontinue any scholarships, awards or prizes made on a recurring basis. All scholarships now in existence, except those awarded by former school boards, will apply to the particular school designated by the donor. It decided that its motion of a previous meeting be amended to. read "that insurance agents and/or companies who sold pupil accident insurance to school pupils or school boards in Huron County for the 1968.69 school year be authorized to do So again in the same schools for the 1969-70 school year on the basis that the insurance is voluntary and that Huron County Board of Education will not pay any part of the premium involved." D. J. Cochrane, director of education, said that contrary to what he was led to believe, insurance agents and companies other than those represented by Huron County Insurance Agents' • Association, sold accident insurance to pupils and school boards in Huron County last year. Safety tip from the Industrial Accident Prevention Association. October is Safety Month.
