There Is the gayly trumpeting bark OF
the dog who sees his master after
long absence or who Is about to be
taken for walk. There Is the har-

and there Is the scared bark OF the

solemnly that the bark OF dog Is an
effort at initiating human speech. They
have backed this statement by prov.
ing that wild dogs never bark, nor
do such few domestic dogs as have
