You say she should not get mad when this Mrs. X tries to make her mad. You sav Mrs X will be the one who gets mad when she finds she can't make "What To Do" mad You don't know women like this Mrs. X. She would think "What To Do" was scared of her and would behave worse than ever. . His suggestion about the trap gave me an idea’so I sprinkled crumbs over the floor and set a b trap with a stick holding it up. I tied a lengt1fof stringo the stick and then waited forthe sparrow to go after the crumbs. But the marrow was too excited to be hungry I guess. Just before dark my wife dropped a muslin crinoline of hers over the bird and caught it that way and then wanted to know why I hadn't thought of a crinoline in the first nlace. I guess we husbands never win. - CR. ON THE ESCALATOR - "When a woma'n brags that much about her husband it's more to try and convince herself than other people.'" . IN CASE YOU'RE ASKED - Pearls are the Orly gems found in the sea. and are the only gems made by I living process. When I got home I bhoned the Humane Society to ask what I could do about a sparrow in the house. But I was?! must have got the wrong number because the man who answered said I should set a bear trap. or shoot it right between, the eyes. I told him this was no ordinary sparrow. My wife said it was a big one. with an "wry chirp. He was pretty callous and told me maybe I should stop and have my head examined while I was at it. So I told the boss I couldn't finish the statement he wanted because t had to go home and catch a sparrow. He wanted to know what Pd been drinking for lunch. When I convinced him it was a real sparrow we had in the house he said it could wait until after five. or at least until I had his statement ready. , BIRD rvpyt,et:y - Dear cm: I was at work when my w: e phoned to say there was a sparrow in the house. It had come down the fireplace chimney and wee flying around the livingroom. I told her to open the front door and chase it out but she said she had tried that but the sparrow kept circling back and trying to crash through the picture window while the house kept getting colder. She said I would have to come home right away and catch the sparrow because it was driving her crazy the way it kept banging at the window. She thought maybe it had gone mad like a rabid dog and might turn and at- tack her or the baby.
