LINE OF FRIENDSHIP MAY

e~ee ose3o . AN90S8 ANS - -
Hearings In q dozen cities Of both
countries by the United States and
Canadian Joint commission to consider
connecting the st. Lawrence river and
the Great Lakes by a canal system
awakened new interest In the nearly
1000 miles Of border that separates
this country from Its neighbor to the
north.
The boundary between the two great
English-speaking countries Of America,
giving them joint ownership Of some
Of the greatest lakes In the world. as
well as river Of prime importance,
holds possibilities for development
overlooked by many Of the citizen
stockholders on both sides Of the line.
The single scheme now under discus
sion for the construction Of canals to
handle. ocean-going ships foreshadows
Q work that would rival In magnitude
and Importance even the epoch-making
engineering feats at Panama. With
huge canals connecting the waters Of
the Great Lakes and the st. Lawrence.
ships capable Of negotiating any
weather could sail with the ore, coal
and grain of the western United
States and Canada, directly to any
port Of the Seven seas.
Discussion by the two countries Of
the feasibility of engaging Jointly
In the development of their border
waters is In contrast with some of the
stormy incidents In which the boun-
dairy has figured. Known In recent
years as "the border without forts"
and come at last to be regarded MS n
line of amity and friendship, 1t is per-
haps not generally realized now that
until the cumulative efforts of years
resulted not long ago in the settlement
of some long-standing disputes, the
United States-Cnnadian boundary was
the source of almost continual misun-
derstanding. Many times there were
unpleasant Incidents, twice the coun-
tries were on the verge Of war. and for
well over hundred years after the
close of the Revolutionary war dlplo-
mats. commissioners, and even neutral
kings and emperors acting us arbitra-
tors were kept busy trying TO straight-
en- out the many snarls into which n
border line can become tangled.
Much Of the trouble In regard to the
boundary resulted from ignorance OF
the geography of the country on the
part OF the early negotlators. The
st. CroIx river which the earliest
treaty stated should form the eastern
line OF Maine at the very STARTING point
OF the international boundary was not
satisfactorily Identified at first, and
this caused friction for some years.
A second geographical error-the as
sumption that the Lake Of the Woods
drained into Lake superlor-is respon-
slble for the rather indefinite boun-
dnry of small lakes and brooks he
tween the two large lakes. The be-
lief that the Mississippi river had Its
source In Canada. and field notes In
accordance with that belief, brought

IT WAS ONLY A DOG
 By Ruth Agnes -Abeline

Well, it was only a dog" said the rather pretty woman Then she went on telling her little son that he mustn't do that again And the soft bodied little brown furred pup py lay in limp heap where the child had thrown it. It's head had struck d sharp stone.
 "Only a dog" but il was a living thing and the possessor of some thing which must be very much like a soul. if actions count. And some day. the little boy grown tall will get angry again and then his mother may not say "only a dog
 For every child who can be cruel to little dogs there is later someone who can be cruel to fRman beings.
 It was in Kentucky. along the rugged banks of Knob Creek, that a little pup was kicked over a ledge and fell bruised and bleeding on the stone below. And according to Aus tin Gollaher, the boyhood friend of Abraham Lincoln and the narrator i in J. Rogers Cores book on Lincoln s l childhood, it was that pup which i Lincoln found and nursed back to 1 health, on which he depended most l for companionship.
