FEROCIOUS PUP
VERY TENACIOUS
There Are No Troubles Like Bull
Dog Troubles, According to
Business Man.

"Dawds will be dawgs" A truer say
ing was never made and that nc
amount of training or education will
change their animal nature has recent
ly been impressed on a prominent cit
izen of Hattiesburg. This gentleman
is one of the leading business men OF
the community, a leader in every
movement that looks to the upbuiding
OF the city in both financial and moral
affairs, He finds time, busy as he is,
however, to indulge a strong penchant
for high-bred dogs, especially bull
dogs. and not long ago became the
proud possessor of a very fine pup of
this tenacious species. The posses
sion of this dog brought troubles and
each day adds its quota of troubles to
the ones already endured, and there
are no troubles that equal "bull-dog
troubles" The word of this man for
that.
only few days since, when this
bull pup had gotten his bearings. the
phone in his owners office rang vio-
lently and it was with troubled coun-
tenance that he proceeded to answer
it. Only his end of the conversation
could be heard, but 1t listened about
like this: "Yes, this Is me-" What,
you say my pup has chewed up the
plumbers hat?" WELL tell the
plumber l will get him a new one, but
that dog will drive me crazy yet"
How many of the Rhode Island Reds
Gid you say he had spared?" you
say you hear him after them agar?
Alright I will call you later" A few
minutes later the same ring on the
same phone, answered with the same
perplexed look: What, you say you
got there just in time to see the Rhode
Island Red biddie's feet sticking out of

riety of fowl" THAT leaves only one,

And it keeps up. Domestic trouble
is feared unless this animal is speed.
lily disposed of, as there is nothing
left on the place that can be eaten or
chewed up except the children and
the one Rhode Island Red hen, and his
patient wife lives in daily dread lest
the children be pounced upon to share
the fate of the chickens and the
plumbers hat.
This pup is of the most ferocious
and tenacious breed known, and due
to this tenacity and for other reasons
has been dubbed by a good friend of
its owner "The Red Cross Bulldog"

contributions FOR
Chinese SUFFERERS

The News, always willing to help a
worthy cause, opened its columns for
contributions to be sent through the
Red Cross Society to aid the starving
Chinese. We do not deem it neces-
sary to keep the opportunity open
longer. The contributions have been
few, but in the experienced hands of
the Red Cross Society, who know how
to handle such funds to the best ad-
vantage, this mite of money will 60 a
long way and relieve much hunger.
How they do it is hard to tell, but
they say that one dollar will save from
starvation one person until the harvest
time in June, when it is hoped that a
bountiful crop will give general relief.
The amount received by The News
will be forwarded at once to the Amer
lean National Red Cross Society in
Washington and from there cabled to
China.
