Nevertheless they're fat and sleek, because they get all the milk they can drink. Maybe they're not so dumb, after all. Although Nicki, an Arabian standard- bred, hasn't saved anyone's life yet, she obeys almost all her rider's commands, and she's learning to bow, Her master hopes to woo some horse show judges with that little trick. Curly is a Shetland pony that had the run of the farm when she was a colt. She followed people around like a dog.. Later, when she was broken in to the saddle, she decided when and where each ride should end. She simply laid down, taking the saddle and the rider with her. If the rider didn't get off in time, that was his tough luck. Not to be outdone by. the other pets, Harry 'the Rabbit has a crowd-pleasing stunt of his own. When someone rubs his stomach, he rolls over on his back and pricks up his ears. Supposedly our pets are "dumb animals," but sometimes it's hard to tell who is leading whom. They cajole •us humans into supplying them with food, to eat and a place to sleep. With a purr, a woof, a neigh, a playful nudge, a lick or a beseeching_ gaze, they \melt our harsh reprimands. They may never join the list of animal celebrities, like Fury, Lassie or Morris, but each of them has their own little tricks to keep their masters in line. Information that the FUG is planning to buy a used .back hoe and dump truck didn't meet with a great deal of enthusiasm at town council Monday night. Mayor Betty .:Ardno reported that the PUC is considering paying $22,000 for both, with the idea that the towp could share their use and pay the PUC less than it has to pay a commercial operator. Mayor Cardno said the PUC, which had a special meeting last week to discuss the purchase, will be doing a lot of water line maintenance and construction in the next couple of years and feels that commercial back h oes will be heavily in demand on other jobs. After their big need' is over, they would look at getting rid of both machines, she said. "They figure they would save enough to pay for it by doing their own work this year." the mayor said. "If they buy it they,;11 keep it." Councillor Jim Crocker said. PUC may buy its own bockhoe WE WANT YOUR BUSINESS Take a fifteen minute drive and Councillor John Sirmamon wanted to know if another. employee would be needed to operate the backhoe. The mayor told him, yes, on a temporary basis. The town could rent its truck to them, . Councillor . Crocker suggested. "They feel they could use two trucks;" the mayor replied. "Where do they get all the moneyV Councillor Bill Bennett . asked.The money is available in this year's water works budget. Mayor Canino said. $80,000 is ailable from increased water rates, Councillor Crocker said, Mrs. Alvin 'male to Mrs. Ray Hutchinson in appreciation of her efforts and accomplishments during her two years as president. Mrs. Ewart Wilson presided for the meeting which opened with the League Prayer. Spiritual convener, Mrs. Smale, spoke about May as the special month .when "we honout the Blessed Virgin Mary by saying the Rosary and also honour our own mothers." Mrs. Maurice Huard, Christian Family Life convener reported that eleven children had been given First Communion Certifi- cates following Devotions on Sunday,, May 4-,--They. were -also,. Rev. R.J. Roberts, Egmond- ville United Church took the devotionals this week. Rev. Rob- erts has recently arrived from Port Talbot, Wales. The Bible reading was Psalm 103 "Bless the Prayer, Lord 0 my Soul." Rev. Roberts prayed for the Christian families in this area and especially for this home, a family within itself, for peace and tranquillity for all. The Lord's Prayer followed. As a second reading, R'ev. Roberts chose St. Luke 10: 38-42, using thispassage of scripture for the approach of Mother's Day., He told the story " of Martha and Mary. When-Jesus was a guest in their home, Martha is over- anxious about the condition of her home and • chides Mary for not helping her. Mary sat at Jesus' feet and her Lord said to Martha "Mary has chosen the good part." After the service, the meeting became • an informal talk with 'questions and answers with Rev. Roberts, who had worked in Wales in an "Old Age Home." We hope Rev, Roberts will find this a rewarding area to carry on his work. Mother's Day visitors" were: With Mrs. Mary Dawney, Sister M. Francisca and Sister Jean Moylan, Mr. and Mrs. R.L. Carter and Richie Carter, Toronto. • With Mrs. Thelma Spurr, Mr. and Mrs. V.M.,Seppala and Jane, London.

Kilbarchan Notes Odds it' Ends by Elaine Townsend Pets I've never met a horse that could talk as fluently as Mr. Ed. or save people as efficiently as Fury. Likewise, I've never seen a dog as smart as Lassie or Rin TinTin or a cat as finicky as Morris. To this list of animal celebrities, though, I can add a few names. For example, Lady is a dog that knocks on doors. When she wants in, she raps three times on the door with her paw. If no one answers, she barks three times. If still no one answers, she starts over again only a little louder. She never loses her patience no matter how slow those human doormen are. Another intelligent dog, Boo, puts his front paws on the edge of the bed while his six-year-old mistress says her prayers, and he echoes her amen with a bark. Queenie, part terrie, and part Heinz 57, leaps on the back of th'e family's pony and takes a ride. Another trick she uses to gain attention is to push her head. under someone's hand and rub it, for she's determined to be petted one way or another. Meanwhile, Jackie the cat rings bells when she wants out. A set of uld-fashioned sleigh bells hangs inside the front door of her house. They often jingle when no one is near, and I wondered who the phantom bell ringer was until one day I saw Jackie tug them. When she wants in, she meows loudly' like an ordinary cat or perches on the living room window sill until someone notices her. Corky is another cat that can't dance like his peers on TV, but he knows how to open doors. • He stands on hishind legs and stretches to reach the knob with his front' paws. Although he hasn't yet succeeded in opening a doors he's on the right track. The purpose of most barn cats is to control the mouse population. I hesitate to A Mass, celebrated by Fr. Laragh in honour of our Lady of Good Counsel, preceded the May meeting of St. James' Catholic Women's League. Following the Mass, a corsage and past presi- dent's pin were presented by given a scapular by Er, X.aragb., Mrs. Rory 5..elmartgi community life convener, reported that flowers had been supplied for the Altar at Faster and a large collection of clothing. had been sent to the St, Vincent De Paul Society London..
