Henrietta Steals The Show

ANDERSONVuLE, Jan IS -
You just cant please everybody
and there's no use trying. A COW
named Henrietta reached that
conclusion Sunday when, by
one and the same act, she in
Cured the hot displeasure Of
her owner. Branch Forbes, and
brought delight to other mem
bers Of the family.
The pond that supplies drink
ing water to the cattle on the
Forbes farm looked like polished
glass Sunday morning. Henri
eta, being q COW Of the space
age. had to investigate. She
walked to the center Of the pond
and took her stand.
Neither persuasion nor threats
brought Henrietta ashore, and
Forbes spent a nervous morn
ing momentarily expecting to
see her break through the ice
and disappear from sight.
In the afternoon, Susan and
Man. Forbes with their :. young
cousins. Cydna and c. B. Nor
gan. decided that if the ice
would hold Henrietta's ponder
Gus weight it would be fine for
them to skate on.
! From the bank. Henrietta,
who in her own good time had
walked back to land. watched
their capers with bovine inter-
est. The look in her eye seemed
to say: If you had four feet such
as ! have. maybe you could do
a better job Of keeping them in
contact with the ice.
