Why Man Likes A Dog
Why does a tmu like a dog?
There are many reasons, though the
deg is not a reasoning being. A
dog will lick the hand that beats it;
a dog will eat a crust or a bone and
bless the giver; a dog thinks that
whatever a man does is right and
proper; a dog has no right that a
man is bound to respect; a dog ask i
no cm harassing questions; a dog is
always grateful, no matter for what;
a dog does not ask the man to stay
at home nights, a dog is satisfied to
love the man, whether the man
lows the dog or not; a dog submits
to any and all impositions without
protest; a dog does not consider it­
self a man's equal, a dog lets a man
have his own way, a dog doesn.t
want to vote, a dog is just as glad
to see a man when he gets in at
three o'clock in the morning almost
helpless, as if he hadn't gone out at
all, a dog has no mother in sight
and a dog can’t talk back ■■-can’t
talk back, mind you, nor won't talk
back. That is why a man likes a
dog.
Warning Not Heeded Yet
After the recent fire in Wisdom,
which was another glaring remind­
er of the hu t that this town is prac­
tical! y helpless in ease of serious
outbreak, we fully believed that
steps would immediately be taken
by our leading business men to pur­
chase efficient lire-lighting apparat­
us Hut no, the lesson has evident­
ly not yet been learned The result
was not quite serious enough
Providence smiled on the little
town that night
Not a breath of
wind was blowing; the outbreak oc­
curred while scores of people were
in town, close to the scene, our
school boys worked like demons, in­
stead of trying to steal the many
things dear to the heart of a young­
ster, as would have been the ease in
some towns, the fire broke out be­
fore the majority had sought their
beds
Had it been otherwise, the entire
block would have been razed
Think what it would have meant to
-all of us 1
Are we going lo sit supinely and
watch the town destroyed’ The
cost of installing fire-fighting mate­
rial would hardly be felt and it is
absolutely necessary that we do it
and do it now.
