DOS NEIGHBORS
NEXT to a new child in the
neighborhood, a new dog
will find himself . second to come
under the judicial eye of the
whole neighborhood.
The dogs who have long been
familiar to the neighborhood are
understood and treated accord
ingly, but the new dog ii looked
upon with curiosity and caution.
No one is quite sure whether he
will nip their children or tear
their own dog to pieces.
Consider these things when yon
contemplate buying a dog. Pick
a pet that will be a friendly ani
mal and a playmatef your child
neighbors.
When you bring your new dog
home, do not let him have the
run of the neighborhood, at least,
not until he has gotten acquaint
ed with his own family. This
practice will soon teach your pet
just who is who, and which per
son is a friend of the family,
THE REAi. MASTER
IT IS NOT always true that be
cause a man buys a dog, brings
it to his home and feeds it, that
he is the dog's master. A dog
has a way of choosing his own
master. That person he select
and to whom he will give his de
votion may be his owner's wife,
his gardener, or his brother. You
may own a dog, but it does not
necessarily follow that the dog is
yours alone.
A dog gives his real worship to
the person he finds has a "true
heart for a dog", and that person
, may be a criminal, a tramp of
the road, or a three-year-old baby
in the . yard next door. If that
person's heart is "right", he is
accepted forever.
To begin with, a person should
not purchase a dog for his home
unless he is a true lover of dog?
in general. He should understand
and sympathize with them. A dog
wants a pal and companion; he
does not want to be merely own.
ed, fed, and sheltered. He wants
someone to belong to, someone
to worship.

Eyes For The Dark
J THE STORY OF A DOG
By Paula
Hilda, a Seeiug-Bye dog, tells
the story of her life from earliest
puppyhood and through school
days in the Seeing-Eye Founda
tion, When her education tea
complete she teas given over to
Claret a sixteen-year-old blind
girl.
In Clare's home, Hilda was
happy until the day At, Clare's
older brother, decided to take the
dog for a icalk.
The dog and the man went di
rectly to a pool-hall, where, in
the privacy of a socle room,
Hilda learned that Al owed Steve,
the proprietor, a gambling debt.
When Al confessed he could not
pay, Steve demanded he leave
Hilda as security and raise the
money in twenty-four hours.
Chapter 9
HOLDING my leash in one
hand and the short black club
with which he threatened to
"tame me in the other, Steve
led me down a narrow dark stair.
The man they called Charlie fol
lowed closely, and while we wait-,
ed there in the musty-smelling
dark, he turned on a dim electric
light.
I looked about me. The room
was low and the shadowy walls
were lined with bottles. The cor
ners of the stuffy cell were
heaped with odds and ends of
r broken .furniture. -,;
"Tie her up to that post there,
Steve," said Charlie.
"Naw, that's no good. Not with
this little strap," said the fat
man. "Get me a chain. There's
one in a box under the bar."
Charlie went up the stair, and
I heard him overhead. Steve stood
looking at me. 1 looked at him.
He murmured, "You'll not pull
any tricks with that chain on you.
It's held tougher guys than you."
When Charlie came back, they
pdt the chain around my neck
and fastened the other end to the
post. They were afraid of me, I
knew, for Steve held the club in
his hand the whole while he was
near me. Funny that he was so
afraid when I hadn't made one
single move that he could have
taken for a threat.
"There," the fat man said and
backed away. "That'll hold you.
Come on Charlie."
ARNOLD'S SCHEME
AFTEK TWO or three years
the English troops in Ameri
ca were getting a little weary of
marching, marching, marching. If
this American Revolution had
been fought with ships at sea,
the English might not have tired
so quickly, but all this tramping
over a wild new country was
wearing them down.
Of course the Americans were
a little weary of warfare, too, in
three years. Business was suffer
ing. American finances were in
a muddle.
We must remember, too, thai
there were still many civilians in
America whose sympathies were
decidedly with England. These
were the Loyalists, and they hop
ed for victory for the Mother
Land.
At about this time an Ameri
can General took it upon himself
to end the war. He was Major
General Arnold, a West Point
commander, and he turned traitor
and plotted to sell out his country
to the English. Fortunately, his
scheme was unearthed, the go-between
man was hanged, and the
Major-General escaped. This dis
loyal person later became a brigadier-general
in the English army.
This shameful business really
Norton
They started for the stair,
Charlie hesitated, "What about
the tight?"
"Turn it off. She ain't gonna do
no readinV Again they laughed.
The door at the top of the stair
slammed. A bolt clicked and I
was a prisoner , . . in a cellar a?
dark as a pit.
The cement floor waa cold, but
I was soon weary of standing
and I lay down. The heavy chain
rattled beside me. I put my chin
on my paws and listened to the
footfalls tramping around over
head.
I thought about Al and what
his .shiftless mode of living had
gotten me into. I thought most of
all about Clare, What would be
come of her if Al did not raise
the money he owed Steve, and I
were sold, as Steve hinted? How
would she go for walks and find
her way about her dark world
without me? She'd gotten so used
to me now, so dependent on me,
and 1, well , , . Clare was my
child, as it were, and we needed
each other.
The dreariness of the situation
weighed heavily upon me in that
ill-smelling damp cellar. I wanted
to fight back now. 1 wanted' to
get out . . , get to Clare . , , and
I didn't care what I did to make
that possible,
.- -There" were more footsteps in
the room above me. Perhaps if I
howled or barked someone would
do something about it. I raised
my voice and called for help in
the only way a dog can.
Heavy footsteps ran across the
floor of the back room. A key
turned in the 'lock. A streak of
yellow light came down the stair.
"Pipe down or I'll come down
and pipe youf It was Steve's
voice. Someone in the room with
him laughed. The door slammed
to again and the key turned.
I thought some more. Well, at
least my howling was heard up
there. Would it be better to howl
and take a beating (I had never
been struck in my life so about
THAT I wasn't sure) or was it
wiser to lie here in the dark and
damp and wait , . , wait for
what?
(Continued next week)
marks a turning point in the
American Revolution.
The foot-weary British soldiers
now started backing toward the
sea-coast and the ships that would
carry them home.
The so-called loyalists now hav
ing discovered they had chosen
the wrong army to champion, de
cided that they, too, had better
seek new fields to toil. They just
naturally couldn't expect to pros
per In a land they believed would
be ruled by an English king.
Down went the loyalists to thr
British ships, and sway they mov
ed to Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick. These loyalists wen
for the most part, people of aris
tocratic background, so the home?
and lands they left behind were
indeed welcome to the farmers
who helped themselves.
Meanwhile, out on the frontier
the hearty farmers were wanting
to know what about the Great
Western country beyond ? The bor
der of this unfilled land was po
liced by British garrisons, but
gradually these troops, too, were
called to the Atlantic seaesasf.
The frontiersmen had the frontier
now.

forces. They planned to come tip
