FRANCE HAS 3S,OOO
 WAR DOGS; MOST OF
 THEM ARE GERMAN

France has force of 3S,000 war dogs at the front. The number of these canine soldiers has steadily in- creased since the beginning of the war. Of this big force at least 10000 are what is known as the Alsatian | breed, a German dog. They have been found to be the bravest and most in- telligent.
 Originally the Alsatian was a sheep dog in the conquered provinces of AL sace and Lorraine, but the Germans crossed the strain with the gray wolf. The result was a big, gaunt gray ami nal with a head more like that of the wolf than that of a dog. They are l free fellows too, and very formidable i in a fight. The French have found that these dogs take training quickly and will learn to do more things than even the famed Belgian police dogs" These latter rank second in number at the front. The Belgian dog is free from the wolf strain and lacks the 1 fierceness of it's Alsatian comrade. Moreover, it objects to hiding" which is very often necessary as a corrective to mistakes.
 M. Aaron proprietor of the Dogs Palace in Paris, is the chief source of supply for the French government. He owns great breeding kennels and has combed the neutral lands of Europe for suitable dogs. The price of the war dogs has risen hugely since the war began and an untrained dog of the Alsatian variety now sells at $60,
 while a trained dog brings from $125 to $2OO.

Anything in the way of newspaper
