PETER HEARS OF WILD DOGS
BY THE STORY LADY

The rain still battered comfortably
on the roof. Peter snuggled against
his grandfather's knee.
Did anything else ever happen to
you" he asked.

that kind Of a boy. Something was
always happening to me-"
"I guess that's the way with red
headed folks said Peter. Tell me
some more"
We'll, one time I went with my
father to help him make hay. He
owned hay land about ten miles from
home and every year we went, n
stayed till the hay was put up. There
was a little shack on the place n
we did our own cooking and l al
ways had a good time.
"One night when we were eating
our supper we heard some hounds on
on the prairie.
The wild dogs are out again."
said my father. .
The wild dogs were two huge
black hounds that belonged to no
one but lived by the game they
caught. They were very wary and

put my head almost out of the win
dow in hopes of getting a breeze.
1T was soon sound asleep. But
some time in the night l Weakened
with a scream. Two huge paws
were on top of my head! When l
yelled thu big dog jumped down and
disappeared in the darkness. My
father came running to see what was
the matter. 1 spent the rest of the
night in my fathers bed and he ex-
| planned tina the dog vas probably
chasing a rabbit and it ran under
the house right by my window. Then
the dog had jumped on the windoY
to see If it could And it.
Sure enough a cotton tail ran out
from under the house. And after l
got over my fright I was never scared
of the wild dogs again. For they
were real logs that chased real rab-
bits and there was nothing spooky
about them"

Representative William Pleasance oi

Representative William Pleasance of
this county was severely reprimsnded
and threatened with expulsion from the
Nonpartisan League. by Mr.. Townley
at Bismarck last week for exercising
his franchise Is an American citizen.
It seems that Mr.. Pleasance was count.
cd among the bunch who signed up
at the secret caucus to vote for all the
amendments that were voted on at the
general election. When his name was
called Mr. Pleasance voted against Mr..
Townley's pet measure, that of bonding
the state without limit. Mr.. Pleasance
contended that the amendment was de-
feated at the election. The most anus.
ing thing about it is that Mr.. Pleasance
voted according to the way Mr. Town.
ley interpreted the law during the cam
paign. We have known Mr.. Pleasance
for thirty five years and during that
time have been on the opposite side of
politics, but we have found him true
to his convictions and no Townley
bulldozlng will ever make him swerve
from his duties as he sees them. A
large number Of the taxpayers of this
county will admire Mr.. Pleasance for
the stand he took. A committee was ap-
pointed to report the case to the caucus
but Mr.. Peasance saved the committe
the trouble of investigating by resignlng
from the league.
