3 DOGS HANG BY
MAN FOUND DEAD

SCRANTON. Pa. Dec. 5.-The body
Of q well-dresed, middie-aged man
was found by hunters In Wild Cat
Hollow, a desolate spot located about
i've miles from Cresco, in the Po-
canos. Near the body on three sap
lings hung the carcasses Of three
shepherd dogs. Also strewn on the
ground were bits Of cloth, believed
to have been torn from a woman's
apparel
Signs of a struggle were evident,
but no trace of another body was
found. The conditions Of the bodies
Of the man and dogs indicated, the
hunters thought, that they had been
dead three months.
Why the dogs were hanged and
what caused the death OF the man are
yet to be determined. 1t was nearly
dark when the hunters reached the
scene, so they simply marked the spot
and today the police have gone out in
an effort to get to the bottom of the
mystery.

with your disabilities il you will
cooperate with me-"
Uncle Sam Is a wise old gentle
man. He and his psychologists have
figured out that the unkindest thing
you can do to a man is.to pity him.
or to allow him to pity himself. He
knows that red-blooded Americans
don't want pity. He knows that these
returning soldiers only want help to
help themselves. Already his Blu
reau of Vocational Education has
started its work. Already wounded
and disabled soldiers are being made
fit to resume their places in the
world. And in a few months every
one of the 10000 wounded and of
the 100000 in the country who never
saw service In France but who have
been disabled by disease will be pre-
pared for their life after the war.
Bureau Would Reach All.
The Vocation Bureau wants to reach
every disabled soldier and sailor. II
wants every man to know what OPP
poTtunities a grateful Government is
providing. Even more. II wants to
reach the mothers and wives, the
sweethearts and sisters OF these men
and boys SO that they will urge the
boys to take advantage OF the facil-
tiles the Government will place at
their disposal.
The Government Is thinking not
only OF the next few years of the
mans life, but the entire span OF his
existence. And the United States
Government is the only one in the
world which is doing this work In
every other country, including Eng
and, Canada and France the work is
one of charity. This country knows
its men well enough to realize that
only a small percentage ever would
accept charity.

No American soldier crippled or dis
abled by the war will ever be an OBJ

Uncle Sam is ready with money,
plans. and advisers to go over the
top for the boys who went over the

sacrificed their health and limbs in
the service Of the country to return
to civilian life with all the pep" that
characterized their charges against the
enemy. He has a full-hedged Govern.

country's money back Of II. whose

energy as he has tried to make the

And Uncle Sam is looking far into
the future In his desire to safeguard
the interests OF the boys from the
front He has not any doubt about
popular sentiment when the boys first
return. He knows that employers
will make jobs for these men-that
relatives will coddle them-that char
ity organizations will attempt to care
for them. But those three things are
