DOBBIN HAS A DAY DREAM
Faithful Old Horse Will Have regular
Thrill When He Casts on

will the noble animal degenerate anu
bark back to his ancestral type, or
will he simply disappear like the 1000
asks "Zim" in Cartoons magazine.
It has taken lot of time ana pa
thence to develop Dobbin from the
primitive models such as the hydraco-
trerium, the pachynolOphus and the
eohippus, to make him whoa, bacK
and "gitap" and take his meals out OF
a nosebag. In the process of civiliza-
ton he has gradually lost his toes ana
has had to accommodate his feet TO
the horseshoe. Does he still dream
perhaps of the delights of having toes
of sinking them down into the green
soush of the tertiary era and feeling
the cool goo trickled up between them
If so, how glad he will be some day
70 look down and see his loug-forgotten
toes beginning to sprout nce again
His will be the thrill of the small boy
ON the first warm day of spring when
he can cast off his shoes and go bare
foot.
When the ''hoss" discovers for the
first tine that he can again wiggle
his toes, he will doubtless -adiate

Ar,erica,s Refuse Coal to Ships.

Washington.-A final move to pre-
vent supplies reaching Germany from
the outside world was taken by the
American Government in deciding to
refuse coal to neutral ships carrying
eupplies from South America to the
northern European neutral countries,
unless their cargoes are inspected in
American ports. In making known the
decision, the Exports Administrative
Board announced that it would apply
provisions of the exports control act,
which gives the Government the same
supervision over bunkers it has over
the expectation of goods generally.
