THE NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL Ye Snooper’s Column Things About Nyssa's Shops There follows a prayer by a horse to his master and written by an acting police commlsioner of New York City. I t is) as beautiful as Sen ator Vest’s plea for a dog In this prayer for understanding from his master are many of the things a canine might ask of his master. T h e desire for signs of app roval and affection from the human master, who to them stand as God, Is no less in an animal than It is the human breast. That of babes and little totif and men ana womenof all al, the pat on the head. I t is so little for any one to give to a human be ing or an animal.Yet it has meant more than meat and drink many times to man and beast alike and life itself to many a soul weary and discouraged. So easy to give and without cost, yet so often we fail to remember the happiness they may bring to others. HORSE P R A Y E R To Thee, Master,I offer my prayer; Feed me, water and care for me, and when the day’s work is done provide me with shelter, a clean,dry bed and a stall wide enough for me to lie down in comfort. Talk to me. your voice often ! means asi much as the reins. Pet me sometimes, that I may serve you more gladly and learn to love you. Do not jerk the reins | and do not whip me when gcing up | a hill. Never strike, beat or kick me when I do not understand what you want, but give me a chance to understand you. Watch me, and if I fail to do your bidding, see if something is not wrong with my harness or feet. Examine my teeth when I do not eat. I may have an ulcerated tooth and th V you know, is very painful. Dc nt tie my head in an unnat ural pot ion or take away my best defense ;ainst fli.s and m.csquitoes by cutir off my tail. And i rally, O My Master, when my usef” l strength is gone.do not turn me out to starve or freeze or sell me i some cruel owner to be siewly * tured and starved to death; but do Thou, My Master, take my life in th: kindest way and your God wii! reward you here and here after. Ycu will not consider me irrev erent if I aski this in the name of Him who was born in a stable. Amen. N c: all people like animals, and it is net tc their discredit. Each per son is different and has a right to his likes and dislikes. They may love flowers ,or art or music cr any one of the ¡numerable things that go to make up life.in- stead. It is only a pity that those so ccn- tsituted tal^e the responsibility of owning a dog. For to care and feed them humanely take some thought and care and a real love of the an- nimal. Dog owners too often do not give enough attention to their neighbors Save Time and Money # Have your motor tuned up or repaired before you start on that trip.

No one can blame a gardner who has spent hours of labor and often much money to plant and improve his garden if he shows resentment against dogs that I come in, tramp it down, ruin the shrubbery and in other ways kill ; nd maim the beauty of the garden. Moire dogs at heme and fewer run ning loose may make it easier for neighbors to remember the Golden Rule when it comes to fam ily pets. But if Fido is penned in his yard not forget that the pat on the h ad and a kind word occasionally throughout the day will make him more reconciled to his lot and bring a greater love and joy to his masters heart. The Hood has gone down. Thirty millions of dollars gone up in smoke at the blast of an enemy gun and over thirteen hundred Englishmen s ill never return home. The pride and the cream of the English navy. We wonder sometimes if it isnt hum- nie after all, this bombing of cities and civillians in this war and the killing of many women. Sudden death from even an enemy blast may be kinder than the senten cing to life of thousands of young women who will be denied the right of wife and motherhood from the sheer lack of men. One wonders if the years to follow will be like those prophisied by the prophet Isaiah when seven women shall take hold of one man offering to pay their own way if he will but marry them. They almost did after the last war. if the divorce records are any cri terion. But with the sinking of the Hcod we are reminded here that if this naticn is to survive as her peopleto- day know her, or even as a nation, we must prepare for defense. Defense net alone to defnd our shores and those who dwell within the national borders, but defense for our for eign trade and for the protection of cur colonies. And this can never be accomplished if one let men work fer thirty a month and must fellow j out every command of their sup- i erior boss, be sent from home and their families to any place on the face cf the globe for the good of their country without complaint or redress because they are in the ar med forces o f the nation while an- othr greup called labor, dictate, terms, hours, wages and increases, then strike and hold up all progress in defense and production till they oain their end. To us this seems | 1 abotage. This nation if she stands or falls will do so for every citizen | whether they wear the uniform I c f the fighting forces or the garb of a laborer. Defense is not for one group, nor for one class. It is for all.
