Different Talk for Dogs.

Prof. R. r. Reynolds, head Of the
modern language department in an
academy in San Rafael. Cal. has two
collie dogs, father and son. Marco, the
elder. responds to his master only
when addressed in English. Bozzaris,
the son, understands and Obeys COM

but stands mOtionless when his sire
is addressed.
There is nothing wonderful about
It," Reynolds says. 1T was as easy
TO teach the young dog Latin tongue
as it was TO instruct his father in
English. Marco occasionally betrays
signs of jealousy when hold protract-
ed conversation in a foreign language
with his son, but word in English
smOoths things out and brings a wag
of the dogs tail.
"It may have been unfair 70 en-
dow the son with accomplishments de-
MED the father, but II is rule of
life, and | think Marco understands
as well as do thousands of other dot
ing fathers"

In Death Not Divided.

1t is true that in several parts of
China it is still considered an act of
virtue for womun to commit suicide

HUN PROPAGANDIST ACTIVITIES

A Bruce Bielaski, chief of the dI.
vision of investigation of the depart
ment of justice. has made revelations
before the United States senate iudi-
ciary subcommittee that have aston.
ished the country. 1t was known. of
course. that German propagandist &C.
uvities in the United States during the
last four years were widespread. but
now for the first time the people have
a chance TO get some of the actual
facts.
There was unlimited money pro-
vided by the German government
Anything that they thought money
could buy the German agents tried TO
buy. If there was a price not in
money, they paid that price. These
German agents pried into every place
where entrance was possible. Nothing
was sacred to them. No ties of hos
pitality or friendship bound them.
The department of justice has
been ably seconded by the American
rganization which came into existence
succeeded marvelously.
