Receives Wings—
at the home of Mrs. Rose Aldrich,
second line east, Itowiek. About a
week ago her younger son, Keith,
unintentionally killed a squirrel near
the home, and then discovered he
had orphaned a family of four wee
ehirpers. Taking them to the house,
it was decided to let the cat "liquid-
ate" them, but, instead of doing so,
the feline immediately adopted the
squirrels and is still proving a very
good foster mother.—Fordwieh Rec-
