would never eat from the seed

together but would sit at opposite
ends of the perch making snide
remarks.
I've seen people like that, too,
but they usually can get a divorce
or separate maintenance and
inflict their miseries on someone
else.
A couple of years ago, Peet
had a nervous breakdown; chirped
day and night, fluttered around
the cage banging her head on the
bars. 1 couldn't get any sleep and
often had to get up, turn on the
light and tell her to shut up.
Sometimes she did, but when she
didn't i moved the cage to the
washroom and shut the door.
Green Hornet would draw his
neck under his wing and try to
sleep and ! really felt sorry for
him. Peer got over her trouble in
time and only became upset when
mean kids hit the side of the cage
or tried to catch her.
Peet will sit on an extended
finger but Green Ilornet wouldn't
make up to strangers. Neither
learned to speak English but they
had a way of chirpping loudly if !

point at which the birds became
infected has not been determined.
No birds received prior to Nov. 3
are known to have been infected.
Remaining birds from tire lot, and
birds expod to them in store

the lives of residents in the
community who suffer from
uremia, a poisoning of the blood
stream that results from kidney
failure. The disease is fatal if not
treated by kidney transplant or
the artificial kidney machine.
"Presently there are four
patients in Kitsap County who
require this treatment, and two in
Mason County," Quatermass said.
To stay alive, the patients
must go to the Seattle Artificial
Kidney Center at Swedish
Hospital twice a week. Each
kidney machine treatment at the
center costs $135.
At first it was hoped that the
committee could purchase a home
kidney machine and operate it in
the local area, but because of the
high cost of insurance it was
decided that the machine would
be purchased for Seattle Artificial
Kidney Center for use by Kitsap
and Mason County patients. The
machine can support up to six
patients.
