"MY NEIGHBOR'S DOG"
A Canine Who is Familiar to Every
Householder
Let me assure you, in the first
place, that I have no objection to
dogs. The dog, like the mosquito
and the pumpkin pie, - is all right in
his proper place and when properly
cared for, but I admit freely that I
don't :love the mosquito in my bed-
room, or the pumpkin pie when it
lurks on the seat of a chair. In the
large open spaces a dog is a delight;
it is a. pleasure, indeed, to have a
farm dog fly •out and bite me on the
thigh, because the farm is the proper
habitation 'of the dog. And a dog is all
right at the end of a leash, or on a
chain, or in a fenced yard, oron a
lap, or in heaven -but a dog from up
street does not cause • my heart to
swell with love, when he comes down
to my house and digs up the Zinnias.
I shall not utter a peep if someone
proposes an amendment to the consti-
tution of the United States assuring
to every male and female the right
to life, liberty and a dog, but I can't
say I love to have other people's dogs
sineared all over my person and pro-
perty.
One thing that is needed, if this
free and easy dog owning is to go
on, is a non-skid dog. •The average,
dog of immature years means well
enough but he runs too much to pow-
er and lacks control. One of niy
neighbors has a dog of a breed I
should call the Voice Hound, and this
dog is kept . tied to his dog. house in
the backyard in a cozy spot where he
cannot reach my neighbor's garden,
but is able to while away his few sil-
ent moments digging up my forsythia
bushes. I have found that most
neighbors are thoughtful in just about
this way.
But it is when the 'dog is turned
loose for his gentle evening exercise
that I turn my face away and my us-
ual sweet smile becomes a painted
grin, for then, in his natural joy, this
large young hound leaps in huge
circles through all the available lands-
cape, and the available landscape in my
yard. On the stright-away he is not
so bad, but, ten the turns he skids like
a Ford car on a greasy pavement and
bangs against tulips; peonies, zinnias
or dahlias, according 'to the season.
To vary this he makes wild leaps
through the shrubbery, coming out
hither and thither like the careless
breezes, but -hitting the annuals hard-
er. And yet the people who own hint
are quite nice people.
Another dearly beloved canine
visitor is the Hole Dog. He comes
'into the yard from the northwest.
through holes between the roses and
perennials, finding a new hole each
time, or making one. I think his
home grounds must be hard on his
feet, for he conies to us mostly in the
early spring, just after our beds have
been spaded and harrowed and are
soft and full of seeds: In an artless,
itinocent manner he walks all over the
beds, stopping now and then to scrat-
chi, for bones, evidently thinking the
bone meal is the spoor of a bone. On
some days he comes aver and chases
eats --not our cats, we have none -
hither and yon, through and over our
flowers, -or leaps among the petunias
trying to catch the swallows. Dear,
Playful fellow! That dog's highest
ambition. is ,to bite a postman, but I
have nit heard that he has bitten one
yet. At night the more distant dogs
cone to our yard -the noble Garbage
Hounds. We hear thein at all hours
from dark till sunrise, nosing the lid
off the garbage can, growling at each
other over the shank of a late lament-
ed lamb chop, playing craps with the
sweet corn cobs. These, I am sure,
are the fearless watch dogs, protec-
tors of their owners'. homes, but they
seem: 'to have the erroneous idea that
their master's homes are in our gar-
bage can^ and that they must spill
the contents " of the can each night
trying to find those. homes. I here-
by give notice that nobody's homeis
in my garbage can. Never yet have
I, put any home of any neighbor in
my garabage can. I wish they would
tell their dogs so.
A dog, well trained and kept where
he belongs, is a pleasant and reason-
able part of civilization. Now and
then he may have some praetical val-
ue, but his greatest value is in his
companionship, and I don't think
Mr. Spooglebuck is enjoying much of
that dear companionship when Mr.
Spooglebuck is twelve miles west
from here in his city office and his
dog is out back of my house chewing
my garden hose. It is possible that
that thought gives Mr. Sp000glebuck
that inner . uplift so dear to cultured
men, but I doubt it. I know mighty
well it makes me want to give his
dog another sort of uplift.
And if a man has a Garden Hound
that is only happy when digging up
gardens he ought - to plant special
gardens of his own for that dog to
dig up. I believe in being neighborly
and any time any of my neighbors
want to borrow a couple of eggs they
can have them, fresh or' stale but I
don't believe any man ought to be
epected to grow gardens for his
neighbor's dogs, if a man don't want
to grow his own dog garden he ought
to petition the city to grow a com-
munity dog garden where his dog
could, let us say, dig up the mari-
golds on Tuesdays and Fridays and
skid down the gladioli, Wednesdays
and Saturdays. In connection with
this the city could set aside one cor-
ner as a Community Garbage Can
Park, ,and keep a few hundred garbage
cans there for the wandering Garbage
Hounds to rummage in. -Ellis ` Par-
ker Butler, in London Echo.

THE LAW OF BROTHERHOOD
One of the three notable contribu-
tions to iife insurance, written by the
late Peter McArthur, was entitled,
"The Law of Brotherhood" and was
dedicated to a Western Ontario com-
pany, The London Life. In this` re-
markable composition, Mr. McArthur
represented the life insurance com-
panies as realizing' in a practical way
the "brotherhood of man", and he re-
graded the policyholders of the vari-
ous companies as constituting an as-
sociation guaranteeing the safety of
their joint savings, and at the same
time guaranteeing the safety of their
dependents in .the event of the death
of any member of the brotherhood.
The writer showed that previous to
the introduction of life insurance the
funds of the middle classes had been.
scattered in illusory` speculations,but
when the life companies were origan-
ized, and set up their necessary re-
serves, a great protective fund was
gradually created which would other-
wise have found its way into the
hands of unscrupulous speculators in
the money markets of large financial
centres. According to the philosophy
of the "Sage of Ekfrid" then life in-
surance serves the double purpose of
protecting savings of the people and
at the same time protecting the fami-
lies of the member ' of the brother-
hood.
THE LAW SAYS DON'T'
Chief of Police Geo; Alien an
Night Constable Ted Lewis will do
you no harm, in fact you will find
them right good fellows if youob-
serve the law. However, they are go-
ing to put a few don'ts into effect and
to see that they are observed and that.
without fear or favor. Here are a
few of the don'ts which you will be
wise to observe.
Don't drive your car until you have
secured your 1925 license.
Don't drive your car without tis
regulation head and tail lights.
Don't drive your car with the cut-
out open.
Don't drive your car at an exces-
sive rate of speed and remember the -
speed limit on entering the town.
Don'tdrive your car while under
the influence of lijeor and Don't befound with liquor in your car.
Don't park your car on the wrong:
side of the street.
Don't park your 'car -without theproper lights being displayed..
Don't turn your car in the middle
of the block. Go to the intersection,.
Don't race or speed your horses on
any of the town thoroughfares.
Don't stand in the doorways or lot -
- ter on the street corners.
Don't spit on the pavements,
SALEM out to the curb.
