It was a big house with a long porch in front of it and on the porch were a lot of people. It wasn't a farm- house, as I had supposed, but some swell’'s summer cottage, and Gibraltar and I had butted into a house party. When they saw us they called to us to come to the porch, they wanted Gib- raltar to dance.

The little sunshine lady put her hands in Gibraltar’s fur and shook his big head. “Gibraltar,” she sald, “you have dcne a great deal for me today and I thank you, old fellow.

CUNNINGHAM, IOOESOOTOOOTO “I've olten thought,” said the girl who likes to talk, “that if everyhody in the world had the persistency ur;x cat what wonderful things might be achicved! 1 have been moved to this philosophical state of mind by the career of Arthur, our alley cat, “l named her Artbhur the first time I saw her because when 1 was quite young there was a boy named Arthur whom I hated with such a whole soul- cd hatred that even to this day the very name gives me the creeps. Ar- thur was the kind of cat you dislike violently on sight. She was lean and a mottled gray and one eve had a cast and she had the general air of bond. 12 what beean the For some rea- to the deter- day we tound her vosed on our §10U dav- enport 1 the living room oy Mother had the cook remove har and then the ash dust oft tiie davenport with gasoline, “That night Arthur mounted trellis to the upstairs perched on the sills and sang mouru- v at each of us in turn, a regular feline soprano, becanse oth- she sponged She was rerwise she never could have got from window to window. When she war- bled you were overcome with a sense of shame that you were repulsing her deep wllection, Somebow she man- aged to convey that emotion, “In her broken hearted despair at our steniness she extracted the paper cover cff the cream bottle at the back door the next morning and breakfast- «d off the cream. The cook saw her departing, licking her whiskers, and threw a pail at her, which she nimbly sldestepped. “That night when my brother was dressing for a dinner party, he found Arthur asleep inside his silk hat. He said that anyway he believed he would like to start the fashion of go- ing bareheaded to dinner. So he de- , parted. “Within the next weck Arthur had stolen the cream twice, eaten our canary, and scared father into a spasm because he stepped on her teil, not ex- pecting to find a cat reposing on a corner of our best oricntal rug. We began to get nervous because we neve #Sang Mournfully at Each of Us” er knew what Arthur would do next or where she would choose to ap- pear. “A man who was calling on me one pight sat on Arthur. Now, there are many trials that a strong man can meet and endure with heroism, but I defy the bravest man to sit on an in- expected cat and maintain 2 calm Je- meanor. That man bouuced up four feet into the air and then landed on the floor in a disheveled state. Who knows but that it changed the course of my whole li.:—because he was a nice man and I rather hked him, and up to that point he had seemed to like me. However, being somewhat gpoiled and popular, his vanity couldn't erdure being made ridiculous —¢nd his demeanor toward me has no- ticeably cooled since then, “After that I jammed Arthur into & basket and carricd her in an automo- bile 15 miles away and deposited her ir tront of a fur factory—gray fur is fashionable this year.
