Was It A Trained Mad Dog

Not long ago a telephone call was
received at the Flora avenue police
station, says the Kansas City Star, re-
questing that an officer be sent to a
house to kill dog supposedly mad.
When the officer arrived he met a
negro.
'Dere's a dog under dem steps, an
he's shore mad," the negro said excit-
eddy.
The officer fired one shot without
hitting the dog. The animal started
to run away.
Gimme dat gun quick. I'll kill
him." the negro shouted.
Saying which he reached for the
officers revolver and got it. He then
pursued the dog, aiming the revolver
at it as it ran yelping down the street.
The policeman waited, expecting the
negro to shoot at any moment. The
negro and dog-and the revolver
went round a corner and never came
back. The offices has bought another
revolver. He says he thinks the dog
was trained.

Good Advice to Parents

The following excellent advice to
parents was taken from an exchange:
IF your child comes home from
school complaining about the teacher
don't Immediately take sides with the
child and threaten the teacher. Just
remember that there are ten chances
to one the child and not the teacher is
at fault. Get the facts before you tell
the child it is an angel, all but the
wings, and incapable OF being bad.
Nothing you can do will tend more to
make an incorrigible child of your son
or daughter than to take the side OF
the child against the teacher. The
teacher tries very hard to treat every
scholar alike, but it is difficult to make
all scholars believe this. Uphold the
teacher and you will benefit your child
thereby -

Didn't Know His Whistle

The Oregonian publishes the follow
ing under the heading of Society
Items:'
A blameless young man from Una
tilla county, where it does not rain
quite so much as in Multnomah, con-
tributes the following extract from
letter written, he says, by a Pendleton
girl who married Portlander:
you see, Clarissa, wrote the bride
from her home in Portland after two
weeks of the rainy season, it rains
here nearly all winter and the streets
get awful muddy and sloppy. You just
have to hold your skirts out Of the mud
or they are ruined. 1t is somewhat OF
an art, too, as | have learned. The
first week l spoiled two of my best
skirts and then Charley said he would
show me how. We were going down
Washington street, not in the business
portion, and he showed me how to
hold my skirts in my hand. Then he
dropped short distance behind to reg
ulate the height. Every time he whis-
tied | was to raise my skirts just lit
tie. l followed instructions without
looking around. You know, Ciarissa,
| don't like to carry my skirts too high,
not because l am ashamed to, but for
modesty's sake, and after about forty
short whistles from Charley l decided
that no matter what the Portland styles
might be or how many skirts ruined,
| would positively refuse to carry my
skirts at that height, so dropped them
and turned around to give Charley
lecture on modesty. | saw Charley
coming up on the run just behind four
men who were walking arm-in-arm and
taking up all the street. Finally Char
lev broke thru the line, and grabbing
me by the arm, hustled me into door
way while the four men passed.
"Great heavens, grill he exclaimed
when they had passed, Don't you
know my whistler l stopped whistling
five inches ago.
