16 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, October 11, 1966 A Glasd, Well - Cared - For Pet Is The Pride Of No matter what your pet is, be he a goat or goldfish, he will enjoy life better and be healthier if you pay attention to his cleanliness. Dogs should be brushed and combed frequently and attention should be paid to ears and eyes. Bathing when necessary should be thorough and a good dog shampoo should be used. Cats, too, should be brushed or combed and all furry animals must be treated at regular in- tervals with one or other of the various preparations to deter fleas, ticks and lice. Any Boy's Heart must be kept clean and changed regularly. The water in fish and reptile tanks must be kept clean either by frequent chang- ing or by the use of a filter and pump. A talk with the clerk in your pet shop will acquaint you with the products that are necessary for the health and well - being of your pet. A good thing to remember is that your pet likes to be as clean as you are. However, never neglect to wash your hands after handling your pet, especially before sitting down The bedding of all animals to eat.

CONSIDERATION FOREMOST If we wished to be humane similar future emergency we might better have offered no tebuke but have suggested that in a similar future situation "this would be a better way." If we really were considerate we will aim never to say "I'd think you would have known better." In contrast let us be ready to compliment the child or oth- ers for the many wise decisions they have made in emergen- cies. Don't they often make very wise decisions then? Can't we hope to build up in them self-confidence for the future and encourage them sourcefulness? Sometimes when there has been no such tragic experiences in the family, we might do well in the family conversation to cite incidents of wise and good resourcefulness of certain other persons. Thus all members of the family might be better pre- pared to face a probably emer- gency in the future well. ANSWERING QUESTIONS Q.
