When I say filledâ€"upâ€"toâ€" much stomachs I am really thinking of Margot Mandel, becausevshe had a stomach that was very much filledâ€" uptoâ€"much the other day â€" which was why Margot‘s dad called me up in so much of a flusterâ€"aithough Margot‘s stomach wasn‘t filled up from eating too many second helpâ€" ings, and it was a whole week beâ€" fore Christmas, so probably Christâ€" mas didn‘t have much to do with at all. Anyway, Margot‘s dad called upnd-idmupndml-r-‘ got right away because uq-&lu is wrong. Margot is a great big police dog, all grey and tan except for a lot of black mixed in with the grey. A.lot of people call police dogs like that wolf grey, but most selfâ€"respecting police dogs don‘t enâ€" joy being compared with a wolf, particularly selfâ€"respecting police dogs like Margot., $ big placeâ€"where Margot lives to see if I could help Margot‘s dad out. Of course, I wanted to help Margot, too, because she‘s one of my particâ€" ular friends. It‘s not often that two people ‘get as friendly as Margot and me so I wanted to do my best to straighten things up. Well, when I arrived finally,. and went into the big sun room where Margot was lyâ€" ing under a table I could see right away that Margot wasn‘t feeling any too well because she forgot to wag hello with her bushy tail when sheuw:i. Margot must have been pretty sick to forget that because big friendly police dogs don‘t often forget the important things when you get right down to it, particulâ€" arly big friendly police dogs like Margot. The plight of our feathered friends who Temain in the northâ€" land during a winter such as this is a sad one. Ice covery everything out of doors, their natural food is entirely shut off, and starvation is their fate unles we humans come the weed seeds and berried shrubs are encased in ice. Without specifying what each bird likes, some of the staple foods are: bread crumbs, cracker crumbs, shelled nuts, oats, cracked corn, canary, hemp and sunflower seeds, the latter furnishing food for the cardinal, chickadee and nuthatch.

Another practical way coated with ice it can be turned over and the dry side exposed. And do not fo rget the gritâ€"sand or ashes. All birds need this to digest their food, and that too is denied them this year. A story is told by a group of Wisconsin sportsâ€" men who were feeding the pheasant and quail during the severe snowâ€" storms of 1936, to the effect that whole flocks of these game birds were found stiff in the snow, their craws filled with grain, but mot having any grit they choked to death.â€"Conservation Chairman, L. is to place an old door or wooden storm sash on top of the snow and scatter the food on this.

Well, after we had spent a long time with a lot of big rubber tubes and stuff like that we finally discovered what was making Margot‘s stomach feel so badlyâ€"and incidentally what was making Margot feel so badly because since Margot‘s stomach is in Margot, naturally the two of them would feel badly together. And Boss, what do you think it was? We found â€"a ~regular ~assortment of things like toothpicks and matches and corks and bottle caps all mixed up inside. I was going to scold Margot for eating all those things but when I saw how good she was feeling when it was all over and how she was smiling and thumping her tail on the edge of the bed I just didn‘t have the heart to say anyâ€" thing harshly, That‘s one of my troubles, Walt, and now T‘ll bet that just because I didn‘t tell Margot she was a bad girl she‘ll go right out and eat some more thngs like that and get sick all over again. Well, I hope not, and I‘ll bet Margot‘s dad hopes notâ€"too. Tell Mrs. Walt hello for me and here‘s yours for a Happy New Year.
