brothers and sisters pursuing rabbit,

AS winter approaches his fur be-

Then spring comes and he is eager

Belinda felt as though she were

once more.
They told Santa everything that
had happened. About Poppy being
a wonderful Santa at department

Tommy and feeling sorry for him
because he'd never seen Santa
Claus or hung up his stocking on

Silver Fox.

Silver fox, prince of fur bearers,
has a price on his head all because
women desire his handsome fur
coat.
Normally the silver fox was an
oddity in family of red foxes
pup born with an unusual color
tendency with an excess of black.
In his infancy he resembles his
brothers and sisters. His loving
mother bestows on him the same
care, food and training as on the
others. AS he grows older. unlike
the reddish coat worn by the others,
his is replaced with coal black,
each hair bearing on its tip a f1eck
of silvery white. Even his legs, feet
and ears have silver flecks on them.
If his mother eyes him with as
tonishment, and wonders in her
heart, he does not know it; his
body needs remain the same. How
ever, because Of his beautifully
marked furry coat, his life is being
sought. He must keep alert, avoid
ing snares, baited traps and man.

fully put to an end by his captor,
and his beautiful coat is stripped
from him. After many days ana
much changing of hands the coat
makes its final appearance either
as a muff, scarf or combined with
many other silver fox victims as
Jacket or cape. The silver fox OF
the wild is almost extinct today.
Fox-farming was originally devel-
oped in Eastern Canada, and IN the
United States there are many ex-
cellent silver fox farms or rancheS
where only beautiful silver foxes
are seen.
So many generations of silver fox
have been raised, the animals have
lost much of their fear and have
fallen so low they enjoy being
Ipetted. These gay and clever hunt
ers who joined forces in outwit-
ting their enemies have succumbed
to civilization and its so-called
