GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN

in the style of Damon Runyon we
give you the life and death of Bozo,
a dog, but a friend of all.
One summer day in '28 a man and
dog fell off a freight train in Omaha.
The dog looked at his master as if to
say, $50 this is Omaha, not knowing
that this was the place he was to live
and die. The dogs name was Bozo.
The mans doesn't matter, for this is
Bozo's tale.
In the course of time he became
Mrs. Lula Talbert's dog. Her nephew
also adopted him. Boze and he car
ried papers, or so Bozo thought he
was, for a year. During this time
Bozo and an Airdale named Buster
owned by Flossie Clarke, decided be.
tween themselves that since gangsters
were in vogue. that the dog folE
should get in on some Of it. So they
ruled Hamilton street. But as ole
age crept upon both Of them, they de.
cided that retirement was a fine
thing. Buster going his way, and Bozo
his.
Bozo decided that friends, human
friends were fine to have. so friends
are what he got. As Jimmy Durante
would say, "He got millions Of them.

! When Bozo's friends heard Of his
death, they all swallowed hard and
said, "That's too bad" but when they
heard he had been poisoned. they
swore vengeance on the assassin
should his identity ever be revealed.
But as the good book says, 1.-THE
reaper takes all sooner or later.
Bozo. who was IL years old, barked
welcome at two mayors of Omaha and
a presidential candidate, F. D. Roose-
Welt.
Bozo is in dog heaven now, and all
his friends say, Farewell, Bozo".

Washington, March 8-(UP)- To Oliver Wendell Holmes today was rendered in all simplicity the homage of sorrowing nation. Ninety-four years ago today the great jurist was born. Only a little more than a week ago friends were planning a joyful birthday celebration. The homage to Holmes was that which the nation reserves for heroes. President Roosevelt led the mourners and common men made up the saddened multitude.
 First came the simple service of the Unitarian faith, without orna- ment or ostentation. at All Souls church. There was one deviation. thes reading of sonnet that was close to Holmes heart. The verse was typical of the man who loved life we'll but faced death clear-eyed and unafraid, Death, said the poet. was but the falling of a 'glorious canopy" of the night. why do we," he asked, "then, shun death with anxious strife?"
 The ceremony was held at high noon at the church which five years ago was the scene of the funeral of President Taft. The Rev Ulysses c. B. Pierce. pastor of the church which included Holm ssNn It's con- gregation, read the simple service, From the church the route of the funeral cortege wound through Washington the national shrine al Arlington for burial with military ionors. There the slow mellow
