Jack is fox terrier, the property
Of c, R. McDerpott, a life-saver known
to swimmers as Mack" Mack and
Jack are a team. Mack does the row

looking and barking.
Not having eyes in the back of his
head Mr.. McDermott can see only one
group of going down for the third .
time bathers. So while he looks one
way Jack sits in the bow Of the boat
and looks the other way. Whenever
a swimmer leaves the shore Jack
jumps up and down and whines That

starboard bow Better take a look. 4"
Then, If the bather begins to gurgle,
swallow gallon or two Of unsterilized
water and try to shout for help, Jack
sets up a sharp staccato bark, which
means Girl overheard, Man the life

gets the victim.
Jack is some swimmer himself,
though he isn't a water dog by birth
or breeding. His favorite amusement
is going down the slide in bather's
arms, and when not on duty in the boat
he capers around the chute and begs
piteously until somebody picks him up
and takes him down the slide. Miss

BACON PREDICTS

Georgia Senator to Begin an
Active Campaign for Wilson
Last of This Month.

NEW YORK. Sept. 9.-Senator A. O.
Bacon. of Georgia. who was reelected
to the United States senate d fortnight
ago for the fourth time will begin his
active campaign work in behalf Of Will
son and Marshall the last of September.
Senator Bacon has been through six
presidential fights, but he says he never
entered one with as much confidence as
the one of 1912. The senator is leaving
New York for an ocean voyage, and
told Senator O'Gorman, of New York.
that he was going to take up the fight
for Wilson with all the enthusiasm OF q
first time voter.
1T is going to be a downright pYeas-
ure," said Senator Bacon. THE con-
test this year is one of education, and
the people of this country are at last
awake to the real merits Of Democracy.
This third term movement is going
to fizzle out. 1t is nothing more or
less than a bridge by which the mem
bers of the Republican party will Join
the Democratic party. There can only
be two great parties. and the Demo-
cratic party can not die. 1t has stood
the buffetings and assaults of years.
The men who believe in Democracy
have never failed, and today they are
about to reap the rewards Of their long
and tireless efforts.
II am not sure but what Democracy
owes Roosevelt a vote Of thanks He
became dissatisfied with his own head
workers and has tried to destroy them
In this he will fail, but he will drive
enough people out Of the Republican
ranks and into the ranks Of Democracy
to make the party of jefferson the bull
wark Of the country"
