A Chance for Cure

I SHOULD have been cured way back in the spring
Il Of 1924. That was the time when I made my
first appearance on any stage. 1t was not a success
full appearance. It grew less so. Five days after
the opening Memorial day dawned bright and clear
and warm. We had a matinee and it was patronized
by fourteen persons, nine of whom were small chill
dren. The nine small children apparently had read
none of the reviews and were in nowise prepared
or recOncIed to hear a monoog which was not so
good. When I first looked out at them they were
happy and expectant. In the space of thirty seconds
my whole speech flashed before my mind.
And how I thought, will that small boy in
the pink rOmpers enjoy the story of the censor and
the blond chorus girl? VIII the mule story go well
with the black-haired child whose hair hangs down
in a couple Of pigtails?"
There was no need arguing the problem with
myself. I would know soon enough. Indeed 1 knew
already There 1 stood empty-handed and empty
headed in the presence of nine tiny tots. Even if
the scrubby anecdotes in my equipment had been
far more scintillatng my act would still have re-
manned inadequate. These tiny tots had not come
to listen to talking. They had other hopes. They
watched me wide-eyed. and waited for tricks. The
situation demanded that I SHOULD stand on my head
or produce two white rabbits from my sleeve. But
1 can not stand on my head. My sleeves are too
tight for rabbits. And anyhow there were no rabbits.

There's No Personal Relation

THERE can be no personal relation between the
dog and the owner in a Commercial kennel be-
cause if there were the proprietor would not hang a
price tag on his pooch and sell it to any one who
happened to come along with enough money. I am
aware of an incident at one of the best commercial
kennels, or a dog store as you might call it, in the
region of New York, in which the buyer and the
seller stalled just S. apart on the prices bid and
asked for a Scottie pup, whereat the professional
dog-lover picked up his little mutt and turned away,
saying:
II will fry him and eat him before I will take a
nickel less"
1t is possible to become too sentimental about dogs
and rare examples of heroism and loyalty on the part
of dogs are exploited into a tradition which runs for
the entire breed of animals. No to minimize the
sacrifices which have been authenticated, 1 have a
suspicion, however, that dogs do not invariably rescue
the baby or the man from a watery grave, but some
times are guilty of terrible indifference and just
anlble away.

that anybody ever frisks anything out of the ice box
for them or lets them jump up on a good chair or
the foot of a bed and stay there. Anybody who ever
has known a dog personally is bound to know, how
ever, that these are among the most important
pleasures in a dogs life, and, although the dog
experts will claim that such practices are bad for the
dog, I have known some dogs quite intimately which
managed to survive this sort of mistreatment and
live very full lives.

Maybe They're Not Heroes

OR, with an exaggerated sense of humor, the Cog
~ may frolic and bark along the shore making a
great joke of a tragic happening, and then forget all
about it. Dead men tell no tales about the dogs
which didn't go to the rescue and one seldom reads
pieces in the paper about the dog which fraternized
with the burglars and romped about the house for
them, showing off his tricks and playing the fool
generally, while they drank the boss Scotch and
robbed the place.
But, on the average, dogs probably give as good
as they get in the way of loyalty.
A dog may jump into anybodys car and ride
away or follow anybody who calls him and gives him
the bone from a chop, we will say. But the dog,
himself, may have been sold for a sum of money at
some time in his career and many of them are de-
serted in the country every year because people find
it inconvenient to take them back to town.
For the fifth year in succession, I have poised
over the catalog of dogs in the show at Madison
Square Garden without finding a dog named Rover,
Towser, Sport, Spot or Fido.
In a way, it is no wonder the pros don't cultivate
personal relations with their stock. The names which
they give them preclude this. They are called such
names as Champion Alexander of Clane O'Wind-
Holne and Rose Shire Gorim O'Hollow Tree. Only
fancy a man going to his back door at night and
hollering, Here Champion Alexander of Clane
OWind-Holme; here Champion Alexander of Clane
