lowly origin there have come re- markably interesting results not only in the world of cats but also anon; people, whose lives "in low estate" began on a simple villue green. ' Right here I should say that I In: aware that a number of peo- pie do not like cats. They like dogs but cats give them the wool- im. For a time I thought that such people were averse to fur. tJo-go has tur-the Persian line --and it's fluffy, a blueish. grey ttuit.) But one day a woman nearly had a cat Bt in our front room when Jo-Jo brushed against her. She was wearing a mink contna soft furry mink worth its weight in gold. Perhaps Jo-Jo, titted into a fur coat would have been the Gal's best friend. (Perish the thought; I'm fond of the little fellow). _ Jo-Jo is a lesson in fear, feed- ing, agility, relaxation, indepen- dence, persistence, a le r t n e s s, cleanliness and a few other attri- butes applicable to people as well as to cats. In these traits he can teach most humans some va- luable lessons. But who wants to learn from a cat, not even a pedi- greed cat. - _ I've known Jo-Jo for almost ttve rears. His birthday is on March 25th and we got him when he was six weeks old. It wasn't long before matters were re- versed: he got us. After the dim seclusion of the barn and his world of straw, mangers and cow's legs the wide open spaces of our living room were enough to give a cat agoraphobia. When he sat back on his haunches in his retreat behind the Chesterfield and spat we knew for certain that this was the cat we wanted, a cat with spunk. who. even as a kitten. would defend his rights at the drop of a hat, ' _ _ He is ordinarily fearful of plumbers. electricians and other such people whomave been touch- ing up odds and ends around the house. When his domain, the whole property, is thus invaded he changes from the pompous lord of all he surveys to a cring- ing, Iimorous, abject creature squeezed into the darkest corner of his hole under the basement stairway. Hours after the invad- ers have left he emerges, one padded paw at a time, to re-in- spect the whole premises lest the enemy be lurking in some obscure corner reudy to do him harm. Jo-Jo feeds reasonably, not much in the summer's heat and more in autumn and winter. He gnllors all over the back lots with the ithe action of his species. When he lies down to rest he ttops. You can hear him hit the deck, He tells us by action every day that we are not nearly as es- lenlial to his well-being as he is to ours. He is the epitome of per- sistence; refuses to take an atti- tude of detentism toward the se- curely locked refrigerator door, He stands tor hours eyeing it up and down tor a crevice which might admit a claw. a paw and. ttttly, the whole cat. How dumb can I guy get! Come to think of Oddly, he discriminates among these workmen. There is one from whom he never runs. I have seen him even hop on to this man's knee and lie there con- tentedly. The object of his aNec- tion is a mild, easy going, indur trious, dependable and completely likeable type He combines these qualities with intelligence. Could be Jo-Jo senses some or all of these _thing.s'! " 53% LY CAT, JO-JO ”mm hum norms *mmbhw I ,giii-iquirt--.-Mt'Ma" “I‘m-mm.” _ I iiiii-iriet-ddin_tr--Aa-+ ucumumm Auttsoet-t-odxi-it,rukDi_ .

DEATHS BIRTHS .Many le correctly credit the Sugample with the bril- liant coloring seen in the Fall. There are other species that add to this coloring and several color weeks earlier than the Sugar Ma- pie. The Red Maple turn a bril- liant red along the middle of Sep- tember and they are followed soon by the White Ash which has a bronze coloring. The Hickory are CIT, and they color before the ugar Maple. Another species that has brilliant coloring later in the Fall, and which has an advantage that the leaves stay longer on the trees, is the Red Oak. Thtteaves of this species turn a brilliant red. It will grow any place in Southern Ontario, although it is not distributed gen- erally and there are sections where it would be impossible to tind. There are several species of shrubs that also color early and they are found growing in all parts. There are two species of Dogwood. the Blue Meech and suGach daughter. WA! K-W Hospital, Oct.

I read in a responsible newspaper that the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, a fT'2'e't'li'c'.rtt cy, underwriters. or sutrsidi ' up to 40% of the production casts of many of these advertising ttro- grams. On the telephone, I put this mailer up to some advertising men, and some companies which are advertising. They said they had to do whatever CBC told them, of stay out of television. But they didn't want their names mentioned-like many other peo- ple. they seem to be scared stiff of the CBC. You run into this fear of the Canadian Broadcasting Corpora- tion everywhere you to.

Yet every day we com- plecently turn over more and more power to the government. Every step in this direction makes gs, to some degree, toois of the tate. There is no doubting this book. Paragraph after paragraph Dr. Sheridan documents the skill and brutality of the Communists, con- trasting their softening up meth- ods before the Iron Curtain fell, and their brutal methods follow- ing it. He shows how desperate- ly easy it is for a nation to fall under the spell of Communism. We prepare the way for it every time we yield up a freedom. We ask for it every time we try to share, by the trickeries of law, a neighbor's wealth. We invite it every time we encourage our gov- ernment to [gay {airy godmother.

MARRIAGES TOTAL PLOW MATCH DEBTS NOT m KNOWN It will probably not be known for at least two weeks the amount of deficit incurred at last week's International Plowing Match. R. H. Magwood. treasurer, this week told the executive members of the Waterloo county committee of the International that he had no idea and would not know the total expenses until the various committee chairmen presented all their bills. The meeting decided to contact each of the 21 chairmen and ask them to present their bills at a meeting set for Nov. 3. Mr. Magwood said the execu- tive committee had' $24,758.68 with which to pay the bills. This amount was reached after deduct- ing $3,753.27 for the Waterloo County dinner held last Friday night and $4,030 loan from Water- loo_counly council. . _ The treasurer said some com- mittees overspent their budgets. On the other hand, A. W. Sand- rock, chairman, pointed out that some also underspent their al- lotments. Total gate receipts for the five days amounted to $22,819.13. That means that roughly 45.000 people paid to see the match. Col-Bt-rr-oct. 15, Elizabeth (Deny) JarurStumpt, Toronto, to William James Cook. Wehr- loo. "ttlSeg,tlvfcls 16.
