Then it was on to Mount Forest, Elora Gorge, Fergus and to view the covered bridge at West Mon- trose. The supper stop was at the Stone Crock in Elmira.

Funeral ser - From our kitchen to yours By T.A. ghost writer Heavenly Devine Thanks to our veterinari- ans this week for the rabies clinics which were offered here in Huron County. It is a wonderful service, but I for one am glad that it is only offered once a year. Our house animals get reg- ular check ups and shots from the vet, but it is those other, semi -wild barn cats which cause us no end of pain at these clinics. There has been great improvement over the years, but we still come out of the foray scratched and battle weary. I re- member one yearthe kids dccldetthe blest way to capture the cata-was with traps. They propped a box up with a stick and at- tached a string to the stick. They baited the trap with some hamburger and lay down to patiently wait. However, a six and five year old find a patient wait very hard and after five min- utes they were squirming around, calling "Here, Kitty, Kitty" softly and then much more loudly. So much for traps! My husband and I decided that we really couldn't wait any longer for these animals to appear so went in search of them. I held the sack while he grabbed and wrestled with them. That first year, four cats went into the first sack, four needles were pushed into the sack, and I can only assume that the vet hit four different hips! The number of cats has decreased, and we no longer need bags, because these animals have, over the years, become semi -tame, but they still must be persuaded into the car and transported to town. I think I will look for a suit of chain mail for next year, the jeans just could not protect the flesh from the claws. Also, no matter what the cost of gasoline, the dog will not be in the same car as one of the cats! (But that is another story best left unwritten!) The trauma of the morning has so wom me out that my son decided on the recipe, a hearty chowder from the United Church cookbook, "Let's Break Bread Together", that even a weary, battle scarred animal transporter can whip up. . Corn and Potato Chowder Combine and cook until tender (about 10 minutes): 1 1/2 cups water 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced potatoes 1 large carrot diced 1 chicken bouillon cube. Chop and saute about five minutes in 3 tbsp. butter. I medium onion la cup celery including some of the tops. Add to the onions, blend well and cook until bubbly: 1 1/2 tbsp. flour. Drain potatoes reserving the liquid. Stir it and 2 cups milk into the onions and flour. Bring to a boil stirring constantly. Add vegetables and 1 14 oz. can creamed com. Heat and serve with parsley and chives if desired.
