terror when they venture on the
streets since number OF polecats

to strike up an acquaintance with
citizens that the latter will appeal
to the State for permission to use
shotguns in getting rid OF the un-
welcome visitors.

that they sit on front porches, morn

at the front doors. and In one case
this week a skunk even invaded the

Members OF the family in the lat
ter instance greeted the unexpected
guest with the greatest Difference. He
was accorded undisputed occupancy
OF the room and the half-fnished
supper was left at his disposal. but
the animal after wandering around
the room and shifting at the food
frisked its tail In disdain and calmly
left by the open kitchen door.
Local officials cannot explain the
sudden appearance OF so many pole
cats. The animals are reported nu-
merous in surrounding rural dis
tricts. and occasional nocturnal
clashes between motorists and the
animals are recorded as the cars
