She had obviously never heard of 'the ardent young Italian who, tak- ing a stroll through a street in " Rome, saw a dark-eyed beauty of cighteen . whom he at once decided was the girl of his dreams. Some men would have thought it rather a snag that the girl was already in the com- pany of an admirer, an air force cadet, but not our Italian. He was far too infatuated to worry about a detail like that! He had made up hi mind that she would be his wife! He followed them until they parted tenderly at the door of the girl's home. Next evening he hired a car and, going to the girl's home, he pulled up and waited. At seven the girl appeared. So" did her sweetheart, who was just about to greet her on-the corner with a kiss when the -Italian put in an appearance. He drove alongside them, jumped out of the car, knocked out and bundled the into the car. Then he drove off at breakneck speed.

He had just carried her into the hut when some police, ac- companied bv the air force cadet, rushed in. The cave-man suifor wus arrested.

"You are truly lovely dp want you to be my bride." fe told the surprised girl. At first she thought he was joking. But when he locked the office door and told her he would not let her out until she asreed to marry him, it was obvious that he was in deadly earnest. with em- office from her "I am a man with an iron will," he told her, "and 1 always have my way.

Realizing she had won the first round. the businessman re- shouted: "Help! ' leased her. The girl rushed home. Being an orphan and alone she had no relatives to . consult, She hated the thought of the publicity that would follow any exposure of her violent wooer, so she decided to leave the town quietly and take another job fifteen miles away, She left two days later. not knowing that her extraordinary stiitor would still pursue her, During the next six weeks she encountered him six times in public and each time he pro- posed to her. Each time 'she turned him down. The girl moved to a smaller hotel. He followed. taking the room next door. She hung up on him when he rang and began to propose. Two nights later, as the girl slept, a fire broke out in the hotel.

Enter- ing the room, he lifted her from the bed and, after fran- tically knotting the bedclothes together, successfully lowered the half-fuinting girl to safety. He followed five minutes later, scorching his hair and clothes but escaping serious injury, "Now will you marry me?" he whispered, as he took her in a faxie to another hotel. "Did you--did vou set the hotel on fire?" she asked ap- her up palled, but at the same time realizing that, whatever his answer, she "must marry him now, : "Ot course not, my dear," he replied, his eyes shining, They are now happily mar- ried with a family of three.

The streets were not marked and I wasn't sure where I was. I park- ed the car and got out to inquire. Unfortunately two things hap- pened, I was parked near a deep and dirty mud-puddle and I. didn't close 'the car door prop- erly. Robbie jumped out of the car, slap-bang into the middle of the mud-puddle. Of course I couldn't take him into anyone's house after that--and what the inside of my car was like I will leave you to imagine. Robbie didn't like it any better than I did as he is a dainty little dog and hates to get his feet wet. He was also very hurt because he wasn't allowed to visit in the house. So you see what I mean-- dogs can get into mischief just as easily as children. When they should be on their best beha- viour they never are.

We had a touch of frost last week; not enough lo do any real harm but enough to get everyone worrled about their gardens --just in case. Now the danger seems to be past and we can prepare ourselves to enjoy Indian summer, the maple trees already having taken on a reddish hue. By present appear- looks as if we should have a beautiful, colourful fall. There is plenty of sap in the trees so the leaves should stay on the frees longer than they did last year. We had a desidedly dry fall then, if you remember. The leaves dropped quickly and there was little of the lovely col- ouring we associate with the fall season. This year the story shouid be different. Another thing we are noticing . squirrels! More squirrels than we have seen for many vears. Black, grey and red squir- rels.
