of the family for wh^ch the Kurten ptonh^of the enl
center was named, may tolerate house
cats and other members of the feline
tribe but he-has little or no -use for
a certain “cat”—species “pole.” One
of the afore mentioned "polecats”
with pugilistic aspirations for' the
mythical crown of Jack Dempsey and
the physical crown of Henry Kurten,
gave the whole family
alarm one jiight recently,
ten said he did not mind viewing a
pole cat from a distance, but when it
came to sleeping with an irritated an-
imal of the variety “skdnk” he
thought he had just as. soon do^ his
snoring by himself.
The other night the family was
awakened by noise in the chicken
yard and Henry Kurten and son, Jim'
went out to ascertain the - cause of
the commotion and disturbance. They
saw a form slinking out of the yard
and took a shot at it, evidently
wounding the animal. They went
back to bed prepared for a night of
rest. Henry Kurten was later awak-
ened in his bed on the veranda, by
something running across the bed and
seemingly trying to get at his head
and face. According to

rid of his bed-fellow.
Mr. Kurten received a
nose which his friends are advising
him to have looked after as “pole-
cats” and "skunks” carry hydropho-
bia and easily give it.
Mr. Kurten personally failed to
make any impression toward effect-
ively knocking out the animal but one
of his dogs came to the rescue and
took a hand in the fight. “When the
second battle was ended, Mr. Polecat
had paid the supreme penalty of his
life for his combative nature and vin-
dicative character.
People say that Henry Kurten’s
bed clothing and personal night attire
are still hanging on the line and will
probably remain there for some time
until he can withstand the odor which ®

They made good their escape.
A. J. Pauley announced today that
he and family will leave Sunday noon
for San Antonio where he goes to ac-
cept' a lucrative position with the
tforgan-Woodward Auto Co. He will
be in the Lincoln department of that
company’s ptent.
Pauley has been with the Grimes
Motor Corporation of this city for
eight years and, while his friends
here are glad to see him climb higher
in the craft to which he has devoted
the most of his life, it is with regret
that they say “goodbye’ to him as a
citizen of Navasota.
Pauley is not only a capable me-
chanic but a good man. He and his
family will be missed by the people
of Navasota.
