Some Interesting Lions
of Nv Acquaintance

When the picture of lion
reached US, he was painstakingly
labeled "The British Lion" but We
erased his name, because, when you
come to think of it, he might exact
ly as well be one of number of
other lions.
For instance, did you grow UP
with that famous and inspiringiy
beautiful picture of Daniel in the
lions den? Whenever sat in the
drawing room at the time Of some
formal family gathering which
bored me extremely, l used to tuck
my legs up underneath me on the
old-fashioned sofa, fix my eyes upon
tbs wellloved photograph which
hung upon the wall and slowly
think 1t all out. At first glance
Daniel looked so small and power
less before those creatures. skulk-
Ing about with their lean ahanks
and cruel great mouths; and when
you examined more closely. you
saw that the beasts expression was
not ferocious, after all. but rather
questioning and hesitating. There
is light streaming In, through the
entrance shaft of the den where
the Kings lions were kept; YOU
saw that. you looked at the faces
of the man and the wild beasts,
and then YOU understood that
Daniel could be fearless and why.
The lions of that picture were the

pinched its sides together deity,
and told the boy just to dip her
cream in there and she would eat
them both together, without both
ering with a saucer and spoon.
Well, when other folks saw the
lady nibbling her cream and cake
together, they came flocking to the
booth for some just like it, and
when the brother saw the economy
OF 1t, the next day he began to fold
the little cakes while warm and
pl1able like cones or cornucopias,
and fill them with cream and that
is the way the ice cream cone came
about, fifteen years ago.
The trick spread like magic.
Folks soon began to put up factor
les to make the cones. and invent
ed machinery to turn them out
nice and even. and they have
made the ice cream business grow
so in our country that men who
know tell US that last year nearly
200 million gallons of ice cream
were served in this country which
cost us $50 million dollars. Think
of it,
Ice cream. you know. is called
the Americans national dish. OF
course. way over in Turkey the
Turks make lovely sherbet and ices
they have made for hundreds of
years. but the ice cream is our
dish. and last year figures show
we ate 5 billion dishes of ice cream
which OF course would make twice
that many cones. Now. how many
dishes or cones would that be to
a person, wonder?" mother
asked. II haven't had time to fig
ure 1t out"
T'll get my geography" Caro-
line cried, jumping up, and see
how many people the last census
showed in our country, and then
we can figure 1t out"
"All right. dear" mother said.
That's a pretty stiff problem in
division for hot weather. but Wen
let you report On it and maybe by
that time l will have another story
about black Sambo Jackson and
how he made the first ice cream
made in America.

How the Ice Cream
Cone Was Inuented

"Ice cream cones! Ice cream
cones, here!"
The 'ice cream man" drove his
horse slowly down the shady ave-
nue.. Little Margaret and Bob ran
to the house to see il they had
enough pennies to invest in one,
and presently they came munching
them to the porch with several lit
tie playmates. Caroline, who was
older, looked up from the book she
was reading and asked her mother:
Mother. don't you wonder how
they ever happened to think Of
making ice cream cones? You did
not have them when you we're lit
tie did you?"
ooh, no." mother answered. "But
! believe I know the story of how
the first one happened to be made
and it is real nice story, too"
ooh tell it to us. tell It," came a
chorus of voices.
WELL" mother began. "once up
on a time-oh no. this isn't fairy
tale, this is a really true story
but once upon a time. not many
years ago." she smiled, there was
a nice little girl who loved to help
her mother in the kitchen and
loved to make cakes. She kept
baking and baking them. until she
could almost beat her mother max
ing the crispiest. sugariest. little
cookies they called rose cookies.
They made you fairly "dribble at
de mouf." as Uncle Remus said.
well, she kept ON making the
cookies better the older she got.
and then when she heard all the
countries Of the world were john
ing with our country to have big
worlds fair right where she lived.
in st. Louis. Mo-. she begged her
father and mother to let her bake
and sell the cookies at the fair. and
finally they consented for her to
have a tiny booth right next to one
where her older brother was going
to sell ice cream. And so it turned
out very nicely. indeed. and every
body who came to buy ice cream
could not resist the little cakes she
baked and sugared before their
very eyes and which smelled so de-
licious.
Finally, one day a lady came In
a hurry for some ice cream.
"Oh. and I must have one of
these dear little cakes. too" she
cried, and picked up a cake and

Belgian Dog Helps
Win World War

Bruges Is a foreigner by birth.
He was born in Rruges, Belgium.
and he was named after the town
by Clyde Hess, segeant Of Co. M.
147th Inf, 37th Ohio DIV.
The soldiers picked up Bruges
from Belgian peasant. The peas
ant could not afford the food that
Bruges required. The boys made a
fuss over the animal and gave him
to Capt Charles Gerlach. Later
the captain was transferred to the
divisional headquarters and he
took the dog along. The Captain
and the dog became close friends.
The dog often accompanied him
to the front lines.
On one occasion the captain was
at headquarters and some infor-
nation that he had was needed
badly. The dog had been brought
to the front lines by a soldier who
had taken fancy to him. German
shells began to fall. The informa-
ton was needed. A note was fas-
tened on a collar that was worn
by Bruges and he was sent back
along the dangerous route to his
master. Capt. Gerlach received the
note and sent back the informa-
ton.
Bruges became a factor in the
war for humanity.
When the war ended, Capt. Ger
ZACH was sent into Germany. He
feared to take the dog along. 80
Entrusted Bruges to Sgt. Clyde
Hess, who Capt. Gerlach knew
loved the dog. Hess easily brought
the dog to Brest. He hid him in
his barracks and succeeded in get
ting him aboard the battieship
Pueblo without detection.
Two days out from Brest the dog
was discovered. Ship authorities
ruled that the dog should 60 over
board. Co. M. ruled that they would
go overheard with the dog. The
dog stayed. He spent a few days
at Camp Mills. Then he took the
New York Central Pullman to Tole-
do and then motored 60 miles to
Port Clinton. He Is the happiest
thing alive.
Sgt. Hess now Ia back home, but
everyone calls and asks first to see
the wonderful dog. and Hess Is
proud to subordinate himself to
this noble little animal. The pic
ture shows Bruges with the collar
or Sam Brown belt" that he wore

Dumb Animals.
