It worked fine until it sprung a leak, then they graduated to putting the ice cubes in the bathroom sink and covering everything with a towel. ice-che- st, Aunt Tillle felt sorry for them and gave them her old refrigerator. Betty was in heaven-s- he thought. The refrigerator was so old it frosted up the minute they plugged it in. Betty would barely get it defrosted when it was FINALLY IT'S NO SECRET that Im not the worlds handiest man. When little things need fixing they Just dont get fixed, far as Pm concerned. My Lady Fair Louise insists 01 Mac cant even change a light bulb-a- nd so It makes her furious when she watches me take apart an Intricate piece of delicate print-sho- p machinery and put It back together. Not around the house, though. Thats different. Our front door knob turns and turns but nothing ever happens. Weve had to quit using the front door. If the back door knob ever quits well go in and out the window. THE LIGHT BULB over the bock porch is burned out. I cant screw it out for a replacement, so it Just stays dark out there.

PERHAPS the most fear some trouble Is the sliding door which guards a clothes closet. It Is like me-- off the track. The Big Dutchman took it off, promised to get it back, and Instead he took money and left town. That was several years ago. We have almost forgotten whats in that closet. Probably that's why MLF hasnt a thing to wear. Any time we cant find something we Just quit looking because its undoubtedly In that closet. The drapes wont slide over the picture window. I have broken the cord three times, ' Jerking; so maybe that Isnt it. I offered to put axle grease in the groove, but she sneered at the Idea. So we leave the drapes dosed. For some crazy reason the Careful figuring has resulted door leading from the house Into the attached garage is a Dutch door. You know, two pieces, top and bottom. The top sticks. It has a window In It, so we can't slam It. Instead, we crouch and sneak through the bottom half. Doesnt matter much, anyhow. Wo never go Into the garage, it Is stuffed with "stored" material. SAME WAY with the basement. 1 never go down there. In a plan for that burnt-o- ut bulb. If I should smash It then 1 could grab the broken remaining edges with a pair of pliers and twist the screw-en- d out. But theres electricity In there. I would get a shock and be knocked clear off the porch and maybe be badly hurt. If I were to turn off the electricity the clock would stop. This Is unthinkable. See how in WHETHER we like to admit It or not, we live In a world dominated by mechanical devices. If It isnt computers and telephone recordings If s plain old household appliances. Some people have leaned to use these devices to their best advantage, to lighten lifes load and make their road a little brighter. Most - of us simply live In a state of peaceful coexistence from breakdown to breakdown. But there are a few unfortunates who are so completely Intimidated by the mach- ines that their lives are pure mechanised misery. Like my second cousin Betty Balderdash. POOR BETTY-th- ere isnt a single piece of equipment that will cooperate with her-th- ey all hate her and she knows it. Even the TV fairly quivers with animosity whenever As walks near, flipping its picture and spitting static at her.

There is a chute for laundry, leading into the basement. When this chute gets foil up, My Lady Fair crams it down with a broom-stic- k (not the one she rides) and then dives head-fir- st down the chute, landing on a stack of dirty clothes. Then she does the laundry. Four times a year. She leaves a rope hanging down the chute and climbs back up a la Tar urns Jane. What we need, really the most, is buckets.

Thankful for any help you might give them and a lesson to all of us on how blessed we who have normal faculties are.

It didnt matter, though, at least it kept thinp cold and besides, much they didnt use frost-cover- ed ice-cub- es anyway. Filling the ice trays had always been such a problem. She would fill them at the sink then always spill half of it on the floor enroute to the frig. If the freezer was especially frosty, getting them in would spill the rest. DEFROSTING the refrighad become a weekly chore and Betty found herself hating that white monstrosity more and more each day. It would sit in the corner of the erator kitchen, glowering at her-- all the time frosting up with fiendish glee.

How Antelope Poaching Threatens Season How Cit- Antelope poaching in Kane County threatens the establishment of a herd in that area. According to a spokesman for the Division of Fish and Game, poachers are seriously reducing the chances of antelope ds with Joy. atwwMnwwttMiMn msm becoming established there. In late September, 1970, 22 antelope were obtained from Wyoming and released on East Clark Bench in Kane County. This release had teen studied and planned for several years as a cooperative effort by the Division of Fish and Game and the Bureau of Land Management. Apparent opposition to the stocking of antelope in this area is evidenced by the dwindling number of animals. Within two weeks after the release, one of the does was shot and left at a waterhole. One of the larger bucks was also shot, quartered and the meat wrapped In a blanket; the poacher did not return for the meat. Concerned sportsmen are asked to help by reporting to Fish and Gama personnel any Information relating to antelope poaching in this area.
