DOG A CENTER OF MYSTERY
Proved Puzzle to Residents Of
New Jersey Town.

A large dog-a collie-has spent the
most of its time before the Sussex Na-
tional bank. The dog stands all day
long, unless disturbed, looking into
space. as though it expected its lost
master to came. and claim 1t. But the
master never comes.
The dog wears a tag with number
and the initials IN. Y. S. p. C. A."
the New York society is unable to
give the name of the master or tell
Snything about any dog of that de-
scIiption.
Residents of this locality have been
enough, though never cordial. and some
of them have tried to adopt it, but
failure has met every effort of that
kind. Archibald Hough took the dog
tc his home. in the suburbs. The dog
was tied up over night, but the next
day the collie was down In the village
again at the old post.
Ex-Assemblyman Levi II. Howell
sent the dog out to his farm. two
miles from Newton. They chained the
collie to pump that night. Next day
the dog was before the bank. chain
and pump handle and all.
Cats and other dogs may come and
go freely and never receive SO much
as the raising of an ear from the
stranger. The police do not want to
dispose of the dog. and the dog war;
den won't touch 1t. SO 1t is becoming
the problem of the town.
The superstitious say 1t is a strange
dog. and that there are many things
which are apparent. but not real

THE SLOGAN CONTEST

test OF the Young Mems Business Club
Ii announced This is another step In
the campaign for better and larger
Richmond. These live wire" move
ulents al over the country are waking
the whole realm OF modern business
to increased efficiency.
Az we understand the purpose OF
the Young Mems Business Club In Of
fering q prize for q slogan, Is to get
as effective ! phrase which will ex-
press the idea that there il real life
and activity in the town.
The move is started by the Sticksr
committee OF the club ~hich is going
TO get out adhesive stamps similar to
the Red Cross stamps which were
used last Christmas. Everywhere the
mail Of this city goes to, these stickers
bearing the motto Of the club will
carry the news that Richmond is not
only wide awake. but it acting as q
unit In securing trade. Not only will
the motto be used on the "stickers"
but In all the other advertising Of
Richmond.
There may be few people in town
who will not be attracted by the prize
which the Club offers, but there
should be no one who is not enough
interested in Richmond to use his
brains for the good Of Richmond.
