If you plan to move or to go on a
vacation, please give forethought to
whatever arrangement you Intend
to make for the care ot any pet
you may have, dog, cat, bird, or
other animal.
Animal, cats in particular, have
an uncanny way of sensing In ad-
vance any disruption ot their ordi-
nary routine. They often will leave
home or hide and oannot be found
when the family is ready to close
the house, with tho result they are
left behind to become strays and a
nuisance in the neighborhood. Con-
trary to the belief hold by many
persons, domestic animals are not
equipped to take care ot them-
selves; they are dependent upnu
man to whom they look for jirotoc-
tloii.
If your pot is to bo hoarded while
you aro uway, bo sure urrungemeiilH
are made well in advance. If ho is
to be taken with you, koop him in
or under control while out-of-doors
when It Is noarlng llmo for your
departure so that ho will not be
"among tho missing " when you
come to leave. It ho must bo dis-
posed of , lake or send him to tbo
nearest animal welfare orguntzu-
lion,
We are Btiro that most eases of
desertion of animals are uninten-
tional , due principall y to delay III
making tho necessary arrange-
ments. Please muko piano fur
enough In advance this year to as-
sure proper care of your pot.

The Five Newspapers Named by Judges
When the famous naturalist ,
Louts ' Agassiz, was teaching 75
years ago at the Marine Biological
Laboratory at Woods Hole, he
wrote a maxim on a sheet of manlla
paper in pencil and ever since it
has been hanging unprotected on
the wall of the laboratory building.
Richard F. Daley, a Boston art
dealer, Has taken the paper to
mount and frame, and cover with
glass, He will then return it to the
wall, that it may hang well pro-
tected for as many more years.
The maxim is "Study nature, not
books."

Sunny skies and a warm summer
breeze brought a large crowd of
flower lovers to the .second annual
Flower Show of tho Barnstable
Woman 's Club, held at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Donald G. Trayser
on Bow Lane, Barnstable , on Fri-
day afternoon , June 8rd,
Flower arrangements, exhibited
not only by club members, but by
many interested non-members us
well , tilled every available space in
the two large front parlors and the
dining room, und overflowed up the
winding staircase into the bay-
windowed hull on tite second floor
overlooking the garden.
The shelves of a lull old-fashioned
whatnot were filled with minia-
tures. Wild flowers hold sway in
one of the double parlors, and to
many, these bouquets of nature's
own lavish beauty proved the most
Interesting. Our common purple
clover, the lowly buttercup and
field daisy, the bench pea of our
sandy boaebjes, sweet rocket prob-
ably gathorld along a tumbledown
wall ot a deserted homestead, aro
only a few of the wlldllngs of our
Cape Cod woods and meadows, re-
strained for a day In old Sandwich
glass bowls, pottery pitchers and
old copper and wooden containers,
but seeming to spill over the edges
In rebilllon against such unaccus-
tomed bondage.
Garden flower arrangements
filled the dining ' room. Tall and
stately iris In all their lovely col-
ors, gentle-faced pansles, fragrant
lemon lllleB , columbine In their
delicate pastel petticoats , vivid
blue cornflowers—all our early sum-
mer favorites — artistically ar-
ranged In the choicest containers.
Prize for the best arrangement
of wild flowers went to Mrs. Ernest
Fritz ot Ostervllle, for a combina-
tion of delicate woodsy plants set
off by one pink lady's slipper. Her
arrangement of lemon lilies and
wild muBtard in a yellow vase was
also judged the best in container
and flower of the same color class.
Mrs. Frederick Fisher of Barn-
stable won In the miniature class
with a diminutive vase filled with a
variety of tiny flowers. Prize for
the moBt unusual or original ar-
rangement went to Mrs. George O.
Bartlett of Hyannis for on artistic
arrangement of snakelike, twisted
Egyptian onions flaring up from a
flat cotainer.
The children's bouquets had a
place for themselves on a long
bench on the front porch, and Miss
Gall Bassett won the prize for a
gay combination In a plnk-Iined
shell. Miss Lisa Tulls also received
special mention in this class for a
