Mother Quit being so mean to Jackie. He won’t hurt your tractor. Can’t you play without quarreling even on Christmas Day? Cat Almost Foils Arrival of St. Nick GAYLORD, Mich., Dec. 25 UP) —Raw liver last night lured a yowling cat from the Leonard Grunewald chimney, clearing the way for Santa Claus. With 3-year-old David Grune wald standing anxiously by, his parents worked more than seven hours to persuade the cat to leave its perch. It had fallen into the chimney apparently while seeking a warm spot and landed on a ledge midway down. Mrs. Grunewald finally put a chunk of liver in the empty fire place and down came the cat. It was promptly named Saint Nick and lodged in the garage to be added to David’s pile of Christmas presents. , MARRIAGE LICENSE APPLICATIONS Under D. C. late couples must apply for a marriage license on one day, wait three full days and receive the license on the fifth day. Sundays and holi days are counted the same as other days. John H.
