Some idea of their size at this stage is in- dicated by the ('act that an or- dinary teaspoon will accommo- date a litter of eighteen newborn babes with a little room to spare. Those who may doubt tate auth- enticity of this statement may re- fer to a picture in the August 1930 issue of Nature Magazine wherein there appeared a pic- ture showing a teaspoon contain- ing eighteen tiny 'possums.

Perhaps last year was a hard year, and yet, in spite of upset world conditions, and of our own personal problems, we all have some pleasant mem- ories that we can wrap around ourselves like warm, defensive garments against the chilly winds winds of life. Some of my pleasant mem- ories are connected with the Christmas greetings that come to me from many readers of this column, some of whom send their good wishes year after year re1n19'ly 1114 L'.il+1r111, .,; ,.. ..,: around. It gives Inc a great en- couragement and I am very grateful for the kindly interest that is taken in this column. And so, dear reader -friends, in case I do not get a chance to write to each one of you person- ally, yill you please accept my thanks for all your kind thoughts — and I hope you will let me visit you in your home each week for yet another year. I suppose most of you people either went away* for Christmas and New Year's or had your family visiting .you. We had Daughter and her husband; Bob, recently home from Alberta, and two friends, who are shit 91:,."- ing with us. ,Just a nice little family gathering, But I will tell you more about our Christmas One Nice Forel—Jean Paradise, holds a Form that places many harried taxpayers in a condition that they describe by other terms than "Paradise,' It is the con- solidated income tax booklet for 1952, which is being distributed by the U.S, •la all taxpayer's. later on, It may be old .news be- fore you get it but it doesn't do any harm at ail to stretch out Christmas memories for at least a fete weeps into the new year. Christmas and New Year's are too good a time -to be celebrated and then forgotten overnight. About a week before Christ- mos i spent the better part of two days in 'reroute) while the other Gwen who is staying with us kept house. When 1 got home almost the first thing I heard was this: "Next -time you go away you hacl better take your blese e kit,eli with y o.t. .'te a'as all over the house, trying and looking for you everywhere. He just wouldn't settle down we didn't have any peace at all!" And yet some folic would have us belivc that cats are incapable or showing affection for anyone, Or course, after being so lone- some, you would naturally sup - pose that Mitchie White would be completely overjoyed When I returned, Not a bit of it, his feelings were too deeply hurt for that. I had gone away and left hint su 110 took his own time to be friendly again. He tolerated being stroked and petted but showed his displeasure by sulk- ing and refusing to purr the way lie generally does. It was not un- til the next day that he was really friendly again. The other Gwen says she had a rat who used to act the very same, "Very different from a dog," says she. "no matter whether you are away a day or u month, a dog never sulks -- he is always glad to see you back and gives you an allusive doggy welcome!" That, I must admit, 1s true af our dogs also. Tippy and Honey are a funny pair. Tippy would leave a juicy bone rather than be left- behind if any of us were going out. Honey, if she hap- pened to be out, would forsake_ all her friends, if she 5o stud.. as heard a dish rattle. She looks at you with her pleading spaniel eyes as if she had the most soul- ful thoughts and all the time you know very well all she is worrying about is ler stomach. So, one only has to give her a few table scraps and she is your friend for life, But she has some interesting little hab!ts too. We generally ,have the evening paper delivered at night — just thrown out somewhere near the mail- box. We just say to Honey, "Fetch the paper" and away she goes, down to the road, looks first this way and then that un- til site Prods it. Then away she paper held firmly in her mouth. She brings it proudly to the house and waits for her reward — a little dog biscuit. We call these biscuits "cookies" and if anyone mentions cookie in her presence„ her ears go ftp — as much as a spaniel's can — and her eyes take on such a bright, alert look — in fact, she does everything but speak in human language. Well, that's all for now, ex- cept once again to wish you all A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR. OSTRICH KICKS OS'T'RICH TO DEATH Visitors to London Zoo know nothing of the queer ways some of the inmates there sometimes meet their deaths. An ostrich was kicked tit death by another ostrich last year, says a report of the Zoo pathologist A num- ber of Spanish burrowing voles burrowed so thoroughly that the t went clean through into h they Zoo's water supply—and were drowned! But last year's most "shame. Ail" death, according to the pa- thologist, occurred when a visi- tor jabbed et a hanging fruit bat with his 'lighted cigarette.

Such a cat exists. It belongs to a wo- man living in Cornwall, and its queer crinkly coat—the fur is less ' than half an inch long in any place—is exciting the interest of cat breeders all over the world. This strange cat (unlike the sad -looking tabby about) has a wild animal look and walks with a stealthy lope. It is believed to be the only one of its kind. It was one of a litter of five born some months ago. The other four kittens were normal -coated, but THE cat was, in the words of a famous cat geneticist, "born wavy and has never altered." Like curly -headed people, his hair is much more wavy in wet weather than in dry, The woman who owns tum is keeping ler name secret because she does not want to part with him. Cat breeders hope they will be given the opportunity of re- producing the crinkly -coat type. The cat's mother was a normal - furred tortoiseshell; the Sather unknown. Experts have noted that the cat is mucin more fierce than other types of cat, One has suggested that he may be a throw- back to a type that existed in Cornwall centuries ago. the barn's public liabilitiep.
