Jewett Bush tells this one. The Bvshes have two pet Boston Ter­ riers that fcpend a good deal of time in their masters’ apartment and have the run of the place with but very few restrictions. But there is one restriction that both dogs know, yet dislike ex­ tremely, so Jewett says. In re­ cent weeks Mr. and Mrs. Bush have been away for a day on several different occasions. Upon returning after the first time away, the dogs were found to have been sleeping on the settee. A switching was the punishment to convince the dogs that such was not the thing to do. After returning from the second day away the dogs were found sleep­ ing at the foot of the settee but the settee was warm, indicating that they had been sleeping there. Another switching followed. Aft­ er the third trip, the dogs were found blowing on the seftee to cool it off. . . J. D.

Timber Children Entertain Mothers Red Cross Auction Sale To Be Held At Natal March 19 “Sorry Judge, my shipment of suspenders still hasn’t come in. Some articles are mighty scarce these days. I don’t get anywhere near as much as I could sell.” “With the war going on, Frank, we’ve got to expect those things. It's true of luxuries just as it is of necessities. Take whiskey, for example. There’s a real shortage in that. It's to be expected when you realize there hasn’t been a drop of it distilled in this country since way back in October, 1942. “The only thing distillers have been making during that time is war-alcohol for the Government. So, I wasn’t surprised a bit to read how bootlegging and black markets have sprung up around the country as a resultof the dwindling supply. Our 13 years of prohibition proved that if folks can’t get legal whiskey, they’ll get illicit whiskey. Sure hope the shortage doesn’t last too long. I’d hate to see this country turned over to the bootleggers again.” This adrr'ttsfmml sponsor td by Conferme» of Aicoholic Belerai» Indurali . t
