Chris read somewhere that dogs
were mentioned in the Bible 40
times, so he decided to see how
often other animals were men,
toned. It was quite project. But
he uncovered these statistics:
sheep and lambs, Alb times; lions,
124; camels, 46; oxen, 5O2; snakes,
So; chickens, 13; asses, ia.

families on her mothers side. And
her work was so valuable that she
received a citation from the In
stitute of American Genealogy,
which included her work in its
publications some years ago.
Hazel and Andy. Streeter, and
all their customers, are mourning
the death of Pattie, the Streeters
friendly and smart little dog who
had been their cherished pet for
IL years. Pattie suffered two
strokes Sunday. Friends built a
casket and a rough box for the

little Wally) helped line it with
white satin. Pattie was Samoyed
