In those years they carried the mail on holidays, including Christmas, as well as every other day but Sunday. Now they are not re- quired to deliver the mail on holidays, and justly so. They have as, much right to enjoy hol- idays with their families as much as anyone else. ********** One of oursquirrel friends, in those strong, cold, winds on Sun- day, sat on our front walk, eat- ing his Thanksgiving dinner. He nibbled away at tid-bits he pick- ed from the lawn. We felt sorry for the poor thing, even with his ample fur coat, and tossed out a few choice mor- sels, which he came back to eat He expressed his thanks by whis- king about for our amusement. *********** Dogs on leashes, or carried cats in, sacks or cuddled in their owners arms, went willy- filly for their shots last Thurs- day. Dogs of many breeds, tiny dogs, small dogs, big dogs, huge dogs, well bred cats, cats of mixed ancestry, well-behaved cats and clawing cats, all got that one quick jab that protects them from rabies. Dogs ob- served in the operation took the needle without a whimper. They were as frisky leaving as they were on arrival. One gentle- man this writer is intimately acquainted with, declared that dogs and cats are luckier than some humans. They nly have to have one shot a yea, while dia- betics have to have at least one a day every day. ********** Friday morning, October 6th, Brussels Fair Day. What is it doing? Raining!
