Thursday,, November 20, 194T. WINGFIAM. ADVANC4-TIMES
The bells are ringing for our Prin-
cess and her consort whose wedding is
the talk of the world to-day, We all
wish these happy people "the very
best." May they enjoy many years of
wedded bliss.

have a strong effect upon the high
sense of duty, good morale and genuine
lome-planning of our young folk who
arc planning matrimony. To them we
extend our blessings too.
Christmas plans arc also being dis-
cussed now. Many hope to travel great
-distances to their homes, while others
are looking forward to entertaining the
family at home. For the hostess, fruit
cake is an essential all during the boll=
day week. To have a mellow flavour,
--The Christmas cake and pudding should
be baked now and stored carefully.
After the cake and pudding have been
cooled, wrap in two thicknesses of wax
paper and store in a tip or wooden box
that has a tight cover. Place an orange
or apple in the box, but replace it every
four or five days, This prevents the
contents of the box from drying out

PHIL OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J. Boyle
There's something comfortable look-
ing about cats around a farm, As far
as Lazy Meadows ,is concerned, there
is quite a society set up in connection
with the cats. There are two distinct
classes of cats around the place.
In the first place we have three barn
cats. There is' old Tdmmy with the
chewed up ears and aface that has sur-
vived hundreds of nocturnal squabbles.
He's a bit battered up and holds the
reputation for fighting around the barn,
Every cat around here is afraid of him
and yet he dare not venture up to the
house. He knows his place as well.
Tabby is the house cat, She is a
matronly Persian and she shares hon-
ors at the house with Spot, a small
black and white kitten that Patricia
Ann favors. Tabby now and again me-
anders down as far as the barn. She
pays no attention to Tommy and he
responds as far as she is concerned.
They respect the rights and privileges
of each other as leaders in two classes
of society.
Tiger is a small, wiry cat of strange
markings who also makes his home
around the barn. He accepts the gran-
ary as being his special preserve. Lady
Puss is a venerable old matron at,the
barn who keeps on producing litter
after litter of kittens. She has a strong
maternal instinct and 'never challenges
Tommy except when she has a litter
of small kittens. She will brook no
interference and she takes advantage of
her responsibility to hurl the occasional
insult at him.,
At milking "time, Tommy, Tiger and
Lady Puss line up for a feed 'of fresh
milk. This a privilege which is not
shared by either Tabby or Spot, As a
matter of fact Spot is not tolerated at
the barn at all. On the other hand
none of the barn cats would think of
going near the house when Mrs. Phil
sets out a meal for Tabby and Spot.
The barn cats have favorite haunts.
At this time of year they usually -bed
down on the pile of chop bags in the
passageway after having had a meal.
The house cats on the other hand wait
their chance and when the kitchen door
is opened they pop in and either sleep
under the kitchen range, get in the
woodbox or try for a comfortable spot
in the front parlor.
Tabby lies quite still but Spot is out.
for fun. She is just waiting for a tussle
with a piece of paper or a string
or the yarn ball, She will play
and tqss round and finally have to be-
put out into the woodshed. She meows,
around for a little while but finally
goes off to bed. Tabby will remain.
still .. , perfectly still, and occasionally-
we forget to put her out and she gets.
to spend the night in the comfort of
the kitchen.
I think cats are useful and comfort—
able creatures to have around a farm
but have always (been puzzled by the-
instinct that makes them have two so-
cieties . . . or classes of society . .
