Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-06-02
Caught on the Wing

William A. Wilson. Women can
smoke, chew, drink and swear Tor
all / care but not all OF them WILL
because they know the value OF being
diffe.e ent from nan. That is the
reason why some women have all the
men IN the city in love with them
and others don't. They are effemin-
ate.."
Kingdom Page, Prescott: Il don't
know whether Douglas has a humane
society or not. have seen more
cases OF actual animal cruelty here
than any place IN the state and
always am travelling around Arizona.
/ saw a dog in the hot sun with a
five foot rope on his neck. There
wasn't chance for the poor devil
to get cool shade. I saw three grown
Mexican men beating burro. Peo-
pie go away and lock dogs in cars.
Now anyone Knows it's as hot as the
oevil in car with the windows clos
cd. Dogs can only perSpire through
their tongue and can't stand much
heat In this kind OF a country every
dog sfoulG be clipped in summer
and penned in a cool place
Arthur Billings, Atlanta, Ga: You
would think That If all the people
who go to Aqua Prieta, Tijuana
Juarez and Nogales, Son., would or
ganize they could have the Volstead
act repealed in two weeks. Seventy
five thousand people in Tijuana in
on day last Fourth of July. Why
America should encourage crime and
make neighboring countries wealthy
when there is a better way to do 1t
is more than ! can see. A perfectly
sane reasonable nation all at once be"
comes reform crazy. This insanity IS
still curable but people will have to
get to work"
Mrs. Charles Carter, Minnesota tour
list: 1--WE had to stop in Douglas pe-
cause we heard so much ab9lt this
place. We are a little bit surprised
because after the publicity that Doug
las got over Aimee we we're expecting
a tough little border town. Douglas
is a city that seems to completely
ignore the presence of the deadly
menace across the line"
O.
VIM. French, taxi driver: The man
from Naco ie all wrong about Demp-
sey. The Manassas Mauler is as much
in condition now as he needs to be
to take any Of the so-called heavy
weights cluttering up the ring. I
predict that Dempsey Will whip
Sharkey and that he will then whip
Tunney. if he ever gets that man into
the ring again. Dempsey still is the
best man in the ring today"
John L. Thompson, Toledo, o.:
Summertime in Douglas is quite a
different proposition than it is in the
middle west. People here are lucky
that they are not obliged to swelter
in the oppressive heat as most folks
do in the corn belt. II / ever come
west to settle down I am going &c
pick on some place in southern Ari-
z0na."
James A. Nolan, Baltimore, Md:
81 was wondering today what the
next popular CONNECTION will be. A
few years ago the Eskimo pie craze
swept the country Since then the
various five and ten cent candy bars
have demanded much public atten-
ton. The various five cent drinks
have long been much in the public
eve. But it has been several years
since anything really new has come
out
Oscar C.. Williamson. Fresno, Calf:
when I see people in Douglas get.
ting under electric fans and saying
it is hot am amused. People OF
this town don't know what heat Is.
In my hoane town there hasn't been d
blanket OH bed for nearly a month
In the afternoons the heat OF the
sun is terrific. Neither day or night
is it comfortable to sit about without
a tan over one. There is a big diff
ference between the climate here and
there
