THROWN ON CHARITY
DOG SUPPORTS;FAMILY

CLEAR LAKE, Mimi, April Is
When the owner of a dog and nine
puppies turned them out without food
and refused to feed them any longer,
the mother dog did lust what a hui
man mother would have done in SINH
lar circumstances. She went from
door to door begging food for her lit
tie ones.
The dog would scratch at the back
doors of Clear Lake houses and when
opened she would look into the face
of the person who came and then at
her half-starved puppies, telling as
eloquently as she knew how that they
were in need.
Her appeal was always needed and
food was provided for the wanderers.
But in every instance the mother dog,
hungry as she must have been, re-
fused to touch any of the food until
her little ones had all they wanted.
The case was reported at length to
Sam F. Fullerton, executive agent of
the Minnesota Society for the Proven
ton of Cruelty. who investigated the
story and found it true in every par

Bringing Up Father" Book
is Published in Colors

George McManus's famous comic
series Bringing Up Father" has at
last made it's appearance in colors in
the most attractive form of any of
this kind of book that has as yet been
published.
The phenomenal success OF the
small black and white bringing Up
Father books, which have broken all
records in the publishing trade, en-
couraged Mr.. McManus to produce a
bigger and more pretentious coliec-
ton of his cartoons from the Sunday
newspapers.
Three series of the black ard white
bringing Up Father book have been
sold, over 100000 copies, a figure
which makes the average best sellers
record look faint

MIA last summer his New York repre-
sentative telegraphed him.

~ short notice, and passport ceremon-
les are shortened
Relax Restrictions.
Incoming passengers are still closely
supervised by British port authorities,
but the examination is much less ex-
haustive than last season. Then it
was necessary for an American citizen
to go to the trouble OF getting a pass
port even when embarking for his
native land. Such a procedure is no
longer necessary.
Police restrictions in the British
Isles also are relaxed, registration be-
ing required only il visitor intends
to remain more than SO days. and rail
way facilities are greatly improved in
schedules and travel accommodations.
I At this date, no steps have been
taken toward organized welcome for
American tourists because 1T is believ-
ed they can be taken care of adequate
ly by the regular institutions for this
purpose. No detail will be overlooked,
however, it is pointed out, to insure
comfort for ali who touch British
shores this season.
Only Rich Travel.
Travellers to Ireland it is said, will
be taken care of as far as it is physic-
ally possible under the circumstances.
Tourist agencies are quite frank in
admitting that only the well-to-do are
financially able TO bear the expense Of
travel at present when a first class

They say the tourist traffic last year
was practically without the large num-
bers Of school teachers and profession
al people who came to Europe formerly
to spend the summer weeks in travel
and study. These folks, they say. can
not pay the prices it is necessary to
charge to make the tourist business
pay. and there are no signs now that
travel will be cheaper in the near
future.
1t is also believed possible, that
many persons will be deferred from
visiting Europe this summer because
Of the unsettled condition Of business
and OF international economic affairs.
However indications are, it is said
that more tourists will want to see
Europe in 1921 than can be handled, in
spite OF the high cost Of living. In
this connection, the advantage Amer
leans have in view of the fayora BILE
exchange is pointed out
