Take a Dogs Judgment on Dogs.

Irwin writes wonderful true dog story
entitled Togo. Mayor of Scituate." Togo
is remarkable dog in Scituate, Massa-

he is called the mayor of Scituate
Togo's power among the dogs of the
neighborhood is shown in the following
passage from Irwin's story;
Eve perceived at last that Togo had
constituted himself committee on ad-
missions to Peggoty beach. Whenever a
new dog appeared Togo took the matter
under advisement for a time, while he
decided whether the stranger might re-
main. If he ruled adversely he thrashed
that dog. and continued TO thrash him
until he learned that he was not elected.
] am not saying but that Togo admin

well as to certain surly and treacherous
examples of the species. Still, Togo
may be right. The Judgment of
