Dog Days Are Here

Dog days start officially this month

dogs and domestic animals of all de-
scriptions suffer most from the excess

but will also be playing safe for your

The first one. Don't kick a dog"
II is only a suggestion for the safety
OF your own anatomy. but is also hu-
name. kick may injure a dog in

Don't club a dog into insensibility
IL he happens to get "mixed up" in a

convinced that the dog has actually
gone mad, kill him
Chain your dog up in a cool. shady

ing is advocated when killing animals.
Give your dog plenty of fresh wa
ter to drink. A healthy dog Will
drink every hour II It can. Don't give
your dog too much meat in hot wealth

the dog becomes deIirious.
Don't be cruel to fighting dogs.
Grab them by the back and pull them
apart. Striking an angry dog may
cause him to bite.
There is no more reason for dogs

Editor Record,
Canon City. Colo.
Dear Sir
Please discontinue Record sent to
me here as my address will change
so often from now on, that will be
unable to receive any mail. 1t has
been a regular and faithful messen-
ger from home and eagerly received.
After touring this northwentern
country pretty well l can say that
have found no place that suits me
quite as well as place to live, as
Canon City, Colorado, U. S. A
1t has been fine and cool here all
summer, but they pay for it all with
rain, mud and deep snow during long
cold winters and they work their
roads so little in this hilly state OF
Washington that during the summer
months the dust gets from to 10
inches deep and driving or autoing
is as much of a menance and hardship
during this season as in winter.
They haven't learned the rudi-
ments of road building here yet Just
fence in a crooked streak Of stumpy
land and call it road. But agricul-
ture thrives and the people are pros
porous
The cities are not kept so clean as
ours but no doubt will be kept SO as
they grow older.
Yours truly,

1t is being tried now at Colorado
Springs post office. l have a letter
before me from postmaster at that
place. He says, that so far, he has
closed the carriers windows only and
carriers are not supposed to route
their own mail or report at all for
duty on Sundays. He has however,
been obliged to keep three carriers on
duty to sort out the mail for people
who call at general delivery, but who
live on the carriers route.
He keeps general delivery open
two hours. from to a. IN. and his
clerks are not relieved at all, but that
when tourist season is on he hopes to
extend the Sunday closing to general
delivery also and then the clerks
would be benefited somewhat, as 1t
now is when carriers windows are
closed and general delivery is open
the work of clerks Is somewhat in
creased. He is OF the opinion that
the public will be satisfied when they
become accustomed to the change.
His office is open so that they have
access to boxes the same as week
days.
I shall be pleased at any time to
give further explanation to any one
who will call at my office.

CLERKS AND CARRIERS
HAVE COMBINING JOB

from MONDAY DAiIJ
Mr.. Guy U. Hardy, Editor of Record.
Dear SIR
/ understand that petitions are be-
ing circulated requesting post Office
department to order the Canon City
post office closed on Sundays.
have never seen the petition and do
not know how 1t is worded, as no one
has ever talked with me about it.
think however, that the patrons of the
office should sign or refuse to sign
such a petition understandingly.
The work of clerks and carriers is
much more confining and laborious
than is generally known. They abb
soltely have no days off at all ex-
cept their regular vacations OF fifteen
days each year. No Saturday after
noon, no Sunday and no holidays
ever. And even though carriers win
dows should be closed Sundays, II
general delivery windows are opened
for delivery of mail and sale OF
stamps, there would be little IL any re-
lief for clerks and the clerks have
longer hours always than do the car
riers for all mails must be opened on
arrival and separated. distributed and
boxed, and all outgoing mail dispatch
ed the same Sunday as any other day,
whether the windows are open TO
to public or not. So there would be
little If any difference in labor OF
90 oh
until trains stop hauling the mails on
Sunday.
Clerks in Canon City, all except the
mailing clerks. begin work at 5:45 a.
m. every dav of the year. and work an
average about nine hours and TWEEN
ty minutes for week days. and five
hours on Sunday. The carriers be-
gin work at a. M. and average not
more than eight hours. week days
and four hours on Sunday. This time
both of clerks and carriers is actual
time they are working, kept by re-
cording time clock. The time they are
waiting for delayed mails is not
counted. so that while some clerks go

ring off until 7:30 at night, and il
mails are late carriers have to de-
liver mail till dark.
n II carriers were relieved from all
work on Sunday they would have all
the work to do on Monday. but would
doubtless be willing to work harder
and longer hours If by so doing they
could have Sunday off 1t is probable
they would have to begin at 6 ocloci
Monday morning and II mail was
heavy, more than likely they would
be unable to complete their after
noon delivery.
| wish to make it plain. that to hay'
Sunday closing benefit the employees
Of this particular office to any grea
extent. the order should be not IL
open at all on Sunday, and evei
should this be done the clerks woul'
have to distribute mail in the boxe
and dispatch all mails as usual, bu
part of them could be let off on alter
nate Sundays.
The question is will this satisfy Tn
patrons of the office? / wish to hav
the general public satisfied with tn
service and am anxious to give re
lief to employees II 1t can be don

HIS WELCOME FOR PRoDIeAL.
Cowboy Would Have Reversed Pro
ceedings as Recorded In the

Judge Ben q. Lindsey of the famous
Denver Juvenile court said In the
course OF n recent address IN char
ity:
TOO many of us are inclined To
fa!nk that, one misstep made. che boy
Is gone Ter good. Too many of us are
like the cowboy.
IAN itinerant preacher preached to
a cowboy audience on the 'Prodigal
Son. He described the foolish prodi-
gals extravaganza and dissipation; he
described his penury and his husk.
eating with the swine in the sty; he
described his return, his fathers low
Ing welcome, the rejoicing, and the
preparation Of the fatted calf.
THE preacher in his discourse no
ticed a cowboy staring at him very
hard. He thought he had made a con-
vert, and addressing the cowboy per.
sonally, he said from the pulpit:
"'My dear friend, what would you
have done If you had had a ~prodigal
son returning home like that?'
MEL said the cowboy, promptly
and fiercely, I'd have shot the boy
and raised the alf.'"-Detroit Free
