work. There is an excellent field in

THIS DOG ACTOR
OWES HIS CAREER
TO AN ACCIDENT

The most famous dog in public
life will visit this week at Keith's.
He entertains audiences with q
clever imitation of his inebriated
master-and his name is Don, just

Don is nothing but a dog. He's
an everyday fox terrier with no
frills attached. He has appeared
before President Wilson. has
toured Europe and hobnobbed with
the crowned heads of Europe, has
starred with Mary Pickford in
Daddy Long Legs" and has seen
ten times as much Of the world as
ninety-nine odt of every one hun<
dred humans. For two seasons he
played an important role in the
Ziegfeld Follies. That Is not all,
however. He Is just as well known
throughout Europe as in America.
