Thomas E. Williams, Coshocton, O. aftehnoon when a group of neighborhood chil dren ran through our vegetable garden, I rushed out and angrily chased them away. When I told my husband about it, he inspected the garden and said they hadn't done much damage. The next day a little boy knocked ai tne kitchen door and handed me a bag of tomatoes, apologizing for running through our garden and "hurting" it. I asked him where the other children were, and he motioned behind him. I invited them all in for ice cream and cookies. They taught me a lesson: that the love and friendship of children far outweighs a few trampled tomatoes. Mrs. F.

When I was at the semi- of some friends and I went on a nutting 12, predatory age and branches kicking piles of leaves as expedition, shaking we wandered through the woods. It seemed to me that I wasn't finding as many nuts as my friends when I stumbled over a hollow log and discovered a treasure -- trove of black walnuts. I stuffed them into my pockets. But when I told my family, they said I had stolen a squirrel's Winter food supply. I lost my taste for black walnuts. It's wonderful Chewing-Gu- A DAUGHTER TO RE PROUD OF. Most of us feel that children should learn to be reliable, dependable, and independent, and that their handicaps should be minimized while their talents are encouraged. We are raising our children that way, and are especially proud of our daughter, who is becoming a model housekeeper. She helps me by setting the table, doing the dishes almost as well as her mother, straightening her room, and helping Lttr W Pay $10 for Your We welcome your views on any subject of general interest.

One of The Girls is Judith Speck and the other is Scarlett Lauritson. Both of them have curly red hair and brown eyes and long tails that wag constantly. Judy is a golden retriever and Scarlett an Irish setter. Judy retrieves the bones she begs from us and Scarlett sets constantly in our patio. Although both are hunting dogs, they allow rabbits to run under their noses and squirrels to insult their ancestry perilously close to their ears. What they hunt best are the ways to sit under our windows while we eat. Even without a scarf around her head, Judy-ia dead ringer for an old lady on relief. Even on a hot Summer day, Scarlett trembles as though she were freezing to death before our eyes. No one could deny two old ladies a crumb of comfort. Nor a with most of the meat still on it. The Girls' families feed them well. And they have a joint doghouse which is something of a palace among doghouses. . s D-- fl s ne er iwui'1 ftrM us of rof hinjt. coolmi; I rriiew-r- ;i Prevriptlon posiuselv rttl iich - cau-H by i. zema. r.rx-ir nca t ton. c haling .i other itcht roubles slamlfss trir trial mut vulW-or back Ask rmMwy satisfy vour druggist for 0. 0. 0. MH SCH1T TKWL They have a fenced front lawn and a thick straw mattress. The Girls live well. The transition occurs somewhere between their house and ours. I watch them leave the doghouse in the morning. They scamper like puppies. Scarlett chases a weak scent off through the woods. Judy ambles along like a happy pig in a field of clover. When they reach our lawn, Judy is limping and Scarlett's eyes are filled with tears. Judy sits plaintively on the terrace and holds one paw aloft. Scarlett comes to the window and runs her fingernails down the sill. Both sob in anguish. There's only one thing to do, of course. Otherwise, there is no peace. We are not heartless and, besides, we cannot hear ourselves speak above their moans. And we are rewarded. They love us and they have proved it. One morning they came tandem-styl- e, their empty dish held tight in their drooling jaws. Did we fill it? Never ask a foolish question of anyone as foolish about dogs as we are. ; r . t r FAMILY 1VS7 tv WEEKLY, fa-- n ly Ben Weekly editorial director.
