Nichols The Cook BY HERBER CHAPTER 5 It was morning, not early morn- ing, but you wouldn't kow really what time it was because it was so dark out. It was raining very hard, but it was a lovely soft spring rain and it smelled fresh and made you think of daffodils and violets and all the nice things you do think of when you smell a spring rain. It was Sunday. Not any special Sunday, just a Sunday in spring, but a very rainy one. Things were quiet and peaceful. It was one of those lovely hushes when it seems as though all the world has stop- ped its activity just to sit and lis- ten to the rain. We had our breakfast and were debating as to whether or not we'd go to Erin- dale and attend the little Church on the Hill. I was looking out the window, watching Patsy, Po and Fudgee sitting quietly out on the verandah. Fudgee had heard Drib- bi say, "It's raining cats and dogs out," so she was patiently waiting and watching: for a lovely white pussy with a black tail--one of her ambitions in life was to have a white pussy with a fluffy black tail. Her favorite ambition was to have a long fluffy tail of her own. "I think I'll sit on the verandah for a while," I said as I picked up my book and started for the back door. Dribbi said she thought it was a good idea and that as soon as she fed Jackadoo, the budgee, she'd come out also. "Well girls, have you been out for a nice walk in the rain?" I asked as I sat myself down in a nice comfortable deck chair. "No, we ain't." Patsy bellowed at me. "I tried to stir up some en- thusiasm, but these two fraidy cats wouldn't move an inch. Oh bow- legged pigs knuckles, what on earth is the younger generation coming to? Where do they think they'll arrive and who will meet them if they do?" she burbled on, as the rain drops from the edge of the verandah roof fell down on her head and streaked slowly over her face. ee Column Book Three, Entitled: POPO RETURNS T C. MERRY "That's what sniffed Pokee. "You didn't at all," Fudgee said. "I did!" I said," "You didn't!" "I did!" "You didn't." "Dia!" "Didn't!" "Quiet you two, before I get up and push you both off into that large puddle. And if I do, you can stay off and find some other place to sft." "Oh Joe, you really wouldn't do that, really you couldn't be so mean," moaned Pokee. "Oh yes I could". I told her. "Just you go on with your bick- ering and see how fast you land in that puddle." "But I musn't get wet. The vet told Barbie I was to be kept dry." she said mournfully. "I'm sure he meant I wasn't to be pushed into a puddle of water. It seems to me I remember him saying "be sure not to push this lovely little dog into any puddles, lady, because it won't do her condition no good!" "It won't do her condition ANY good." Fudgee again corrected. "That's what I said--" "You didn't." Thursday, March 15 195 Punch Once Saw A Dragon HE BLEW OUT SMOKE AND SNEEZED FIRE BY MAX TRELL «Mr. Punch" said Hanid, the shadow-girl with the turned-about name, "are dragons real? Or are they just imaginary animals?" Mr. Punch, who at this mom- ent was standing in front of a mirror shaving himself with a long wooden razor, suddenly let out a yell. "Ouch!" he cried. "Oh, dear! Did you cut your self?" Hanid asked in alarm. A Towel Mr. Punch jumped around with- out answering and tried to find a towel. It was hanging on the hook right in front of him but he could not seem to see it. Hanid had to get it for him "Soap in my eye!" he said after he had wiped it out. "AD, that's better now. What was that you were saying about dra- gons?" "Are they real or are they just malke believe?" "That all depends," replied Mr. Punch, putting some more Soap on his face but being careful mot to get any in his eyes. "That all depends on what?" "It depends on whether you've ever seen a dragon or not. If you have never seen ome, you just go around telling everybody that they're Imaginary, but if youve been lucky enough to see one, then of course you know they're real. I've seen one," he added. "You have!" exclaimed Hanid. "I met him one day while I was walking around a mountain. He was living under the mountain. It was the only place big enough for him to live under. I said hello to him. But he didn't say hello to me," said Mr. Punch, shaking his head sadly. "Oh no!" "What did he do?" Knarf want- ed to know. "He blew a puff of black smoke in my face," answered Mr. Punch. "He also sneezed out some fire. Naturally I ran away from that dragon as fast as I could go." "Oh, I'm glad you did!" said Hanid. "He must have been an awful creature. You might have got all burned up!" "I almost did anyway," said «I did" "I suppose it is lovely in the Oakville 1445 88 CLARKE AVE., BURLINGTON rain" Fudgee said. "That is, if one cares to stroll about and get all wet." "It's not lovely in the rain--it's horrid!" Pokee contradicted. "I hate getting my feet wet. I never have nothing to dry them on." "You never have anything to dry them on," corrected Fudgee. BOARDING KENNELS id Se 9.30-4.00 (Estimates Given) Saturday: 9.00-12.30 Mon. & Thurs. Evening 7-9 NURSERIES Closed All Day Wednesday ROBT.

Pokee ran for the door, screanting, "Drib, Drib, let me in quick. He's gone mad and he's trying to drown us." Dribbi arrived at the door, res- cued Pokee and ran to help poor Fudgee. The wet, bedraggled creature had crept up the steps. "What on earth are you doing to these poor dogs?" Dribbi scold- ed. "You know you shouldn't get Pokee so excited. Remember her secret!" "Oh yes," I said. "I'd forgotten. Popo has a secret." Dribhi took Fudgee into the house to dry her. All was peaceful again. The rain drops still drip- ped down Patsy's face. She did- 0't mind.
