Seven -Leaf Clover
Harold Parker, Hensall, has
found a seven -leaf clover and
August should be his lucky
month.
He reported multi -leaf clov-
ers in abundance and said that
there were literally hundreds of
four-leaf clovers in the patch
from which he selected the
seven-leafer.
The `lucky -seven" is on dis-
play at Bert's Snack Bar in the
village.

the best. Came the spring. One
night the father let the young
cat out for the usual, and he
vanished, though the dad stood
there, in his underwear, calling,
for half an hour. In the morn-
ing, kitty turned up, red -eyed
and ruffled.
For the next couple of weeks,
there was a lot of activity ar-
ound that house. In the day-
time, the little girl defended
her pet with a broom against
the white, . brindle, black and
purple cats who haunted the
yard and seemed to want to fight
with Piper. At night, the fam-
ily felt like a hunting party in
the jungle, crouched about the
campfire, while the hyenas
howled all around.
In a few weeks, the whole
thing was obvious. The kids
went right on calling Piper
"he," but it was plain that the
boy kitten was a female cat.
Guess who was elected to
strangle, or drownk the fruits
of her labor. Yes, the father
steeled himself against coming
catricide.
At this point, a new charac-
ter enters our story. The boy
in this family had a birthday
coming up. The lady, in anoth-
er of those mental somersaults,
decided they'd surpise him with
a pup. There was a mad scram-
ble, but the pup — a coal -black
spaniel — was there on the
birthday, and was promptly na-
med Playboy the Second.
Leaves For Texas

tertained at a luncheon last
week, to honor Ben Johnston,

condition. There was some fear .
that she'd have a :miscarriage,
out of shger pique. But they
reckoned without that sense of
drmatic timing inherent in the
pregnant female. In the middle
of the night, while the family
was staying with friends at a
cottage, she began to have her
pains.
With the advent of the pup,
poor old Piper was pushed into
the background, despite her

She managed to keep most
of them up all night. The lady
finally closed her eyes about
six with no news yet from the
maternity ward, which was the
seat of the car. At seven a.m.,
she was awakened by a shriek
from her daughter. "Piper's
having her babies! The first
one's white! It looks just like
a dinosaur! Within seconds,
every kid in the vicinity was on
the spot, They stood around in
a circle, watching the whole
performance, and cheering each
new arrival to the echo. The
mystery of birth is no longer a
mystery to them.
There's no moral to this story.
But I couldn't help thinking,
when I was home last weekend,
that it was rather odd for my
wife, who hated pets for years,
to be dancing attendance on
two children, a self-satisfied cat,
die. Sex, male. I think. It ap-
pears that the kitten -drowning
deal for dad is posponed indef-
