Pup Beats Governor

fup DedtS uVNeihOi
Johnny's mother had brought
him down from Washington to
see the parade. She was cold and
tired and hungry but it was well
worth it, for Johnny's mother is
a Virginian and she had promised
her son sight of the Governor.
Unfortunately for the well laid
plans of his mother, when the
parade came along, Johnny was
busily. engaged in petting a frisk
bull terrier pup who had stuck an
inquiring nose into Johnny's hand.
Neither jerks of the maternal arm
nor commands to "look at the
Governor" had any effect on the
six year old boy. The guberna-
torial party was well on its way
down King Street and the fire en-,
gines had hove in sight before the
novelty had worn off the engaging
bit of a dog and the small boy
