Observings

The editor OF the Coyle Clipper has
joined those who are kicking the dogs
around, and estimates there are about
three dogs to each man, woman and
child in Coyle. Which, Of course, is a
good many dogs. However, we refuse
to string along with those who seek to
exterminate the canine clan. Right now
the army wants Airedales for Red
Cross work, and that is only one OF a
thousand of the useful and helpful serv-
ices of dogs. Lacking in mercy or
imagination, it is not to be expected that
the enemies of dogs can see that what
to them are superiluous pets may serve
a very useful purpose indeed. A man
who appreciates friendship, love, deyo-
ton and loyalty at their true worth, a
great worth not to be weighed or meas
ured, nor valued in monetary terms,
isn't apt to be too severe on the dogs.
