KITTEN NO, ONE
TAKES UP RESIDENCE
AT McGRATH
WASILLA—The kitten popula
tion of McGrath, for many years
now only a blank space in feline
census lists, has been increased to
one this year. Small, white and
dainty, the newest McGrathian is
the gift of Miss Mary Beth Losh
baugh, Wasilla school teacher.
Miss Loshbaugh spent the
Christmas holidays at McGrath.
While there, she found that Mc
Grath children had never seen a
cat, so she sent the kitten, a
Christmas gift of her own, to the
local school.
