This :s tho story of two. dogs. Olio
Boche dog dropped dead. Clark
slipped out through the wire, un
fastened the dog's'' collar, and
brought It back. The collar was
sent Into headquarters.
Tho little aluminum message box
thnt Tiling at the dog's throat was
opened. The message : contained
valuable Information as to - relief in
the enemy lines and told other
things which lt Is necessary to
know. Tho colonel or Clark's re
giment Bent him a note commending
him for shooting the dog, declaring
It showed him to be "n quick
witted soldier of action."
' Tommy Was French. .
"Tommy" doesn't know the story
of the Boche dog. In the first
place he doesn't understand much
English yet. Then he's having too
much fun frolicking with the Am
erican boys lo listen. "Tommy"
has lived through the tragedy of
his life, and forgotten it. When
thousands of men, like the 'Iloclio
dog's master swept ""forward' and
captured Montdldler, Just across -the
way from where "Tommy" lived, his
people fled. They were farmer
folk. They piled what household
goods they could on their high two
wheeled cart, climbed on top, and
with probably nn old man or a Ut
ile boy driving the horses, they
hurried away. "Tommy" was for
gotten in the haste to fleo from
tho wrath of tho German guns and
men.
He wandered around disconsolate
for days, while strange French col
onials lived In he house his folks
had left. The,n they departed and
the Americans came. The Salva
tion Army moved Into his house.

Mr. Grain Farmer:
Are you prepared to handle your grain in bulk? flo not
wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work
and worried with labor shortage, but build your graneries now.
You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-class
1000. bushel portable granary for $54.68 and it will last for
years. Sacks for tho same amount of grain will cost you
$125.00 and this would be a dead loss against this year's crop.
A granary of this size can be moved anywhere and can be
filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced
labor handling and sewing sacks.
The boys h the trenches need the sacks for sand bags for
the protection Of their very lives and perhaps your boy is
among them.
Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber
manufactured at home. When you buy sacks part of the
money goes to India
BUII.D YoUR (JRANARIES NOW
Be prepared by buUding them before tho farming season
opens up. Me sure to Act pood lumber, well seasoned, as low
grade lumber will give Aiu trouble in a few seasons. Don't
use green lumber.
Save money keep whit you spend nt home pvevent loss
and damage from exposure a wenther leave the sacks for our
boys in the trenches; help wirtthe war by building gianaries now.
Portable granaries of this type are universally used in
other sections. One trip with a good tenm will haul the ma
terial for one granary. For particulars as well as pricei on
Union County lumber fnr all farm purposes, see
