It was to the effect that' "he Vlffi6cW "id goose dowp . but simultaneously somebody else shot into the air and claimed the bird was his. Of course. Dave would pever argue the point. Doc Cade didn't bring Anything home either. Harold noss, with Bill Willis-croft as his pilot, went to Khut. zamateen with the Eamus. They came through the storm safely und brought three geese home, Bob Cameron and Jim Campbell went out with George Fraser of Digby Island to Spiller River and there are just as many geese there as there were before, though slightly less mallards. They said the wetither was too Ine. How come? Inside tlio boat, verhaps.

CooVts In 2ij to 5 minutes The fattest cooking cereal Oats The Quaker Oats Company, Peterborough and Satkatoti promised a pfiie for one of the raffles at the Catholic Baiaar and he wondered what to give. Thai same night while lvinir on his lonesome couch, relaxing and reading after the cares of the day he happened to be rereailinir Ella, for Goldbloom is nothing if not classic the wonderful invention of roast pig came to his attention. And if roast oie was so delightful to a follower of Confucius or Buddha, would It not taste as good to any other Gentile? It was a brilliant thought. So in the morning Goldbloom wirelessed over to Porcher Island to send him a live pig, a pig with a pedigree, a pig of a good family, well brought up and educated, in fact a real gentlemanly pig. His order ack. nowledged, Goldbloom informed the convenor of raffles what his gift would be and it was accepted gratefully. Goldbloom promised that he would keep the young gentleman pig in his store window until the raffle was drawn. But the boat from Porcher; Island does not get in Ojntll Saturday. thev raffleu.tpok place last night I And Goldbloom ' had alo been boasting among his friends what a good window dresser he was and that he was going to have a unique display that would make other window.dressers green with envy. In fact he was open to bet that he would have a window-display different fron) every window display In town, And besides, he promised a lot of the youngsters In town that they would see the pig in his window. Goldbloom doesn't mind losing his bet but he can't dissap. point his young friends after having promised them such a sight So arrangements were made to have the pig In the window over the week end. And here's Gold-bloom's trouble. Who's going to feed the pig? Goldbloom can t do It. In fact he just cant I Moses told his fathers at the foot of Mount Sinai before the war, not to. In fact Mos?s had 'It written on the Tables of Stone,; not to. Written authority, which Goldbloom cannot depart from, otherwise Goldbloom would not just be jailed he would be stoned with stones by the congregation. Goldbloom doesn't know which congregation but he rather thinks it would be the Presbyterians. For they keep the Com- munamenis. So because the little pig doesn't chew the cud with his cloven hoof, Goldbloom can't touch it. go near it in fact be shouldn't look at it, to be strictly orthodox And yet his kind heart grieves at the thought of such a g ntl-, manly little pig geing hungry for he doesn't like going hungry himself. Goldbloom rmie to have a silk ribbon round the little pig's neck and a pink bow on U curly tail, but that's as much as he can do for it The logical thing now is for the winner of the pig in the raffle to drop around ,to see Goldbloom and relieve his ' mind about the pig's sustenance lover the week end. Then Gold-i bloom would smile again I I So whoever would like to see a Inlce gentlemniy pig, of good family and education. well J brought up, and with a pedigree ,see Goldbloom. first!
