TWENTY BOYS OWN
THIS DOG BECAUSE
THEY SAVED HIS LIFE.

Pukwana, S. b., Press. There is a
yellow dog i'm Chamberlain His name
IS Bruno, yes Bruno. There is nothing
strange about the name, Il is a com
mon one for dogs. There is nothing
strange either about there being yell
low dog, there are lots OF them. But
this Bruno was marked for execution
because there was no one to assume re-
sponsibility for him, and no one to pay
the dollar tax So Il was decreed that
Bruno must be shot Shot because he
had no home and no master. Bruno is
an old shepherd dog, shaggy, friendless
and harmless. All the little boys in
Chamberlain know Bruno, and likewise
Bruno knows and likes the little boys
If, perchance. one of them gets on his
back and is too heavy for him, he neith-
er snarls nor growls, but he rolls on
the ground and wags his tan. He is
a iovable dog, even though he is home
ly ana at present time limps on three
feet.
Bruno had a master once but last
fall he was drowned in Red lake. His
master was Dave Gunnaway, and ever
since the playmates OF Davy's con-
nected his memory with poor Bruno
and they think they see in him dis
consolation and loneliness. IT may be
on this account that Bruno is more
noticed by the boys than other dogs
anyway Bruno has hosts Of friends
and when il was noised about that he
had 10 be shot because there was no
one 10 pay the tax, the little boys i'm
mediately began to plan how they could
save him from the tax collector 1t
was finally agreed that twenty of the
boys should put In a nickel apiece
and that Bruno should be owned Jointly
by the twenty boys, and SO Bruno now
wears a tag about his neck, showing
he has a right to exist and enjoy the
friendship and charity Of the twenty
boys who have adopted him
