] can almost eat and sleep with fine
dog winter and summer. But 1 try not
to deceive myself about his intelli-
gence. 1t seems to me that If the dog
had the least spark Of wit akin to our
own-that is, power of reasOn-his
long association with man would have
famed it into fame. however small.
But after all these thousands of
years of human companionship and
love he has less wit in some respects
than his wild brothers, the fox and
the wolf. Having been spared the
struggle to live that falls to their lot,
his cunning and sagacity have deterio-
rated. The same is true Of the horse,
which has less intelligence than the
wild stallion Of the plains and for the
same reason.
These animals do not grow wiser as
they grow less wild. They do not civil
lie or develop. We train them into
certain ways that make them service
able to us; we humanize them without
adding to their mental capacity. In
other words, we cannot cross our in
telligence upon theirs and make it
fruitful in them The germ will not
