DEXTER BOY PUTS ORPHAN RABBIT ON MILK DIET: Two baby rabbits that lost their parents in a grass fire in Dexter the other day were adopted by Junior and Roger Williams, sons of Mr. and Mrs. William Williams of Dexter. Estimated to be about a week old, the tiny rabbits refused to eat lettuce and were put on a milk diet. They were fed with an eye dropper first and now are thriving on milk from a bottle with a nipple. One of them bit the end off the nipple on an early feeding. Junior Williams is feeding one of the orphans in the above picture; the other ran away while the picture was being taken.

BLESSING BRONCO -- Six-year-old Neil Zajic's hamster, Bronco, was one of the many animals, from poodles to pythons, blessed by the Rev. Mark Inglot of Ann Arbor's St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church Sunday afternoon in his annual blessing of parishioners' pets. St. Francis of Assisi, founder of the Franciscan order in Italy in the 13th century, for whom the church is named, was noted for his lover of nature, and is often depicted in art preaching to the birds.
