CASWELL OFFERS TIMELY SUGGESTIONS FOR AZNG NEATESS Dis
Puppy
Needs Play
Spells
BY LIZ HUME

Today, Fluff, Puff, and Bozo
are pictured here with their
owner, Mrs. Connel Osburn.
Eskimo Spitz is the breed and
their dam, Sno-Ball, is owned
by Mrs. Osburn.
It looks as Trough the dogs

ture, but Mrs. 0Sburn found
that she had to ,Iake them as.
sumo this position in order to
get them to stay still long
enough to have their pictures
made.
Teeth and Claws
Any puppy, like any wide.
awake child, should have its
play spells. His various acts Of
mischief and aggravating caperS
are not to be taken too seriously.
He does not mean them de-
liberately but merely takes this
manner Of wearing down his ex-
cess energy and giving vent to
his irresistible ambition to do
something. He does not know
what else to do, hence he does
the first thing that presents
itself.
AS a child, the puppy Graves
and enjoys amusement. And
when he cannot obtain it other
wise, he proceeds to supply it
as best he can. Having no
hands, the puppy must use his
teeth as the only suitable means
available for his playful pur-
poses. Furthermore, these little
needle-like teeth are a source of
irritation to the puppy himself
as well as to others.
They soon pass their stage Of
usefulness and the second or
permanent set of teeth begin
early to push up against the
roots of the first ones. This is
d111lOy41lS anu painful AT GAA11eS'
Right and Wrong
In turn this predisposes the
puppy to an inclination to
chew on something-the same
as a baby-aS his only means of
temporary relief. 1t makes no
difference to the puppy what
he chews as long as he has
something on which to chew.
If this something is not pro-
vided, naturally he will select
whatever he sees to serve the
purpose. When things are left
in his way it is not at all sur
prising that he appropriates
them for his own special use.
It is necessary that a grow.
ing dog be gradually taught
what he may have and what he
must leave untouched. At the
same time it is generally well
to offer a puppy something else
that he may play with. In this
manner he will in time come
to understand right from wrong.
If you have q good picture
of your pet, Liz Hume invites
you to send it in for use in this
column. No pictures returned.
1t is also very probable that
some of your experiences would
be of interest and value to other
owners of pets. Address Liz

a Nip,

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 17.-Dancer
Charles Barron gave Sally Blame
the scare of her life when he
was taking her home from q pay
evening and took q sip Of iodine
by mistake. Published reports said
he was reaching for O bottle of
mouth wash in the pocket Of his
car. Actually, it was one of those
two-drink bottles of whisky.
The funny part Of 1t is no
body would have heard anything
about it If Sally hadn't leaped
out Of the car and rushed to a
neighboring drug store for help.
Barron tried to explain that he
hadn't swallowed any Of the caua-
tice poison, but Sally, poor girl,
was in a panic
All in all it was a hectic finish
