She began peeling potatoes with a vengence, whacking furiously at them. Oh oh! I thought, now what brought that on? She survived yesterdays den meeting with her smile intact. I poured myself a glass of milk, stalling while I thought of a nuetral response. I knew from experience that if I disagreed with her she would think I wasnt sympathetic, but if I agreed she would get more upset. I know that you really put a lot of yourself into your den.

At least I am beginning to understand women. You cant just listen to what they say. You have to notice the little clues they give you, too. Tkae the otter day, for instance. As I came in the kitchen door from word, Alice was just hanging up the phone. Now that isnt a bit unusual, especially since she became a den mother two months ago. But there was something about the way that she set it down so deliberately and the odd way she smiled at me. She looked like she was trying hard not to cry. Now that is the time for a little T.L.C. So I put my arms around her and said, Hey, Allie, whats wrong? You look as if you found another melted crayon in the dryer.; I guess Ive got the foot y mouth syndrome, she sobbed into my jacket. I dont know why the bishop ever called me to be a den mother. Im just not cut out for the job. Its just too hard.

If you missed the circus can always create own By Nonie Gilbert The veterinarians office called last week to say one of the animals needed a distemper shot, and I was foolish enough to ask them to check the record and see if any others were due. and it turned out They too, realize that we are Big bucks, that two dogs, one cat and two ferrets were up for a total of UfiA conference did me a favor; I desperately needed the two extra pairs of hands for the trip (10 miles each way) to the vets with all those animals. It wasnt really too bad, with the exception of the car tearing up my sons underwear and the poodle crawling into my daughter's sleeve. Oh, Oh! Here come the Gilberts and three, no, four, no, five of the animals. Im putting in for early retirement. But they are always friendly at the vets office, and one of the good doctors even managed a smile and a questioning hello. All of the other patients in the office fled as we entered.. By chance, doctor, do you offer group rates? Of course, and you can even win a free trip to Las Vegas. Humor went out the window, however, when the cat needle. Frankie, jumped off the table wagging a the male ferret, helped himself to a hunk of hand from the vet, but Johnni, the female, behaved admirably. The kids were too chicken to observe the shots being given, and waited outside to carry the animals to the car singly as they were finished. I didnt watch, but I stayed in the room as moral support for the doctor. At last it was over, and while chilcyren chased ' animals around the parking lot screaming, I prepared to pay the piper. The receptionist checked the total three times, and that in itself should have warned me that they were adding up the national debt for presentation to none other than mme. But I was brave, and I waited. Eighty-fou- r dollars later, as I attempted to my eyes, they gave me a break. Well let you off for seventy, they said. We think its neat that you keep your animals so healthy and current on their shots. I think its neat, too. Hie cat and dogs cried all the way home, and the ferrets slept. It would have been an altogether happy ending had one of the kids not been unwise enought to pick that exact moment to ask; If I cant have a salt water aquarium, do you think it would be okay to buy a baby turkey from my friend? He said he would give me a really good deal... still-insert- at all surprised. Slicing myself a generous piece of banana bread, I let ter go on. Peggy told me that she has really teen defensive about her children lately. Since her Suzie started junior high, she has been in one of those difficult stages. Peggy feels like she is failing as a mother. I guess that is why she was so short with me. Anyway, all she really needs is reassurance. If she helps out with the cubs for a few weeks, she will get a new perspective on things. Everyone gets discouraged at times.

Oh, that Peggy Randall! Alice yanked open the cupboard, grabbed a pan and banged it down by the sink. After all Ive tried to do for her son, she accused me of being too pushy! Alice began' hacking the potatoes into wedges and flinging them into the pan. All I was trying to do was get her to help him finish up the project we started in den meeting. We are supposed to involve the boys parents, you know. I cant see why she got so upset. I was just trying to do my job. I know, Cubby, I said and pinched ter playfully as I headed for the newspaper. I was going to have to think about that one. Hie next morning as I picked up my lunch bucket, I kissed her lightly on the forehead and asked, How about baking some of your good banana bread today? I waited until just as I was going out the door to suggest, Why dont you take some to Peggy Randall, too. That wasnt too subtle, I guess, but it worked anyway. When 1 came home from work I was greeted by the aroma of fresh banana bread and a kiss from a smiling wife. Guess who is going to help me with the cub scout puppet show! Peggy!
