San Francisco Wave.
The proper name for cats is. I be-
lieve. felines. | don't know what they
call them felines for. but they do just
the same.
You can find cats all over the world,
with the exception of our back yard.
Some cats live on milk, fish. meat,
mice and that kind of stuff, but all
cats that I've ever seen seem to live
on the back fences.
| have heard Of cats of nine tails
and cats of nine lives, but I've never
met any of EN-. All the cats that l
ever had anything to do with had only
one tail and one life. and a mighty
short life at that.
They say it's good luck to have a
cat follow you. | suppose they mean
it's good luck for the cat, for ninety
nine times out of 100 when a cat fol-
lows you, you remember about its be-
ing lucky to have a cat follow you and
you pick up the cat when no IN is
looking. take It to your house and give
1t a good home.

The gump followed me and never had
any luck a%fterward. Neither did the
cat. He went where all good cats go
over in the vacant lot.
Some people stuff their cats after
they die. We tried to keep a cat more
times than / have marbles, But they
all died. The majority Of them were
stuffed-in the ash barrel. Nobody
seemed to know what made the cats

1t was impossible this time to con-

The authorities made a careful eXami-

that this new victim had been asphyxi-
