some intelligent human who understands
that. In modern communities, these dogs
are happiest when properly controlled.
~ -
Isn't il always the way--the good are
taken, the bad are left?
Jack definitely belongs to the category
Of good dogs.
We can, see him now that tall, long
gray form, with those big ears standing
straight up, galloping along after squir-
rels.
OF course, he never caught any, but
he had fine time at it.
No doubt he is doing it down on the
farm now. with as little success, but as
much enjoyment as ever.
Jacks eyes are kind. There is vast
difference between these great fellows,
and in no feature is it shown more than
in the eye.
mean-eyed German shepherd-well,
statistics OF New York City, for instance.
show that such dogs bite more people
than any Other breed. Fox terriers, come
next elbows third.
Probably tho same proportion holds
all over the country, and if there were
any way Of passing the offenders In re-
view. 1t would show that practically
every one OF them Is a mean-eyed dog
This is a curious deviation, for a nor
NAL dog, in almost any breed, has the
most beautiful eyes in the world. not
only physically, but lit with that inner
light which means love Of humanity. not
Just the owner.
The owner Of any OF the larger breeds
I is doing his dog a disservice by falling to
train it properly, which, in the case of
such great-muscled ones, means prompt
obedience to the spoken command.
I There is no other way.

Somewhere in Bozo Jacks ancestry
there was bit OF poor blood for he did
not possess the great strength of chest
which this breed ought to have.
This made all the more remarkab BILE
his great and sonorous bark.
He was weak. too, in the hindquarters.
He never seemed to fill out as he should.
Despite these faults. he was a splen-
did fellow. You forgot all when you
looked into his fine eyes. and noted the
tilt OF his high-held head
He was silver gray, with very little
dark color on him.
Always friendly dog. at times he was
very reserved. ana would look at YOU for
all the world as if thinking. Now. let me
see. should know you. but really can
not recollect the name"
l. J. .
Jacks last roundup was pathetic.
Like all dogs he loves to ride.
He was induced into the car which
was TO carry him away. and his mistress
brought over his harness, collar and
leash. his eating bowl and his blanket.
Old Jack was happy for ride. but he
strained at the leash when the car start
ed to move. He knew something was up.
And everybody in the block felt bad
about it.
We all hope he is happy where he is,
and fnds plenty Of squirrels to chase.
Ihey took him away. good old Bozo
Jack. the best dog in our block-and we
hope they bring him back.

Although the work relief ap- propriation bill carrying funds not on.y for work relief but also i for the Public Works Administ- ration projects was passed and approved some days ago, up to the end of the week no allotments had actually been made for any
 Alaska public works projects.
 4 considerable number of such projects, including Skagway nun icipal improvements, Juneau lib- rary, Anchorage paving, Seward gymnasium, Douglas school bldg. Skagway school building, Fair banks municipal improvements Territorial school buildings Sit ka sewer system, University of Al aska dormitory, and possibly one other have been heretofore approv ed by the examining divisions of the PWA and most if not all of them are eligible for allotments under the appropriation bill re- gently enacted.
 Nor have allotments been made for other projects in the United States, for it is understood that all such projects are being held up awaiting the formulation of some plan which will work fair ly and equitably for all parts of the country.
 The appropriation made will not take care of all approved pro- jects and therefore a large num- Der of them must be omitted. It .s exected that within the next two weeks the plan will be az reed upon and allotmentS made.
 In view of the language of the bill it seems almost certain that a grant will be made to aid in the construction of public school building for the town of Douglas since the former school building at Douglas was destroy ed by fire last winter.

but remain right where he was until
Longlegs should leave.
1t was very trying to be so near
the water, yet unable to get to it.
When Longlegs had first appeared
stalking along the edge of the Smil-
ing Pool the great chorus had abb
ruptly ended. After Longlegs had
stood motionless for while the
singing was resumed, and soon the
chorus was as loud and as joyous as
before. At long last a school of small
fishes swan in close to LonglegS.
That long neck of his sprang out
and down, like a spring, and that
spearlike bill of his had the largest
of those fishes before they knew what
was happening. Longlegs swallowed
that fish, and then few across to the
other side Of the Smiling Pool.
Now was Old Mr.. Toad's chance
and he made the most Of it. You
should have seen him hop for that
water. Once in the water, he swan
out little way. The very feel of
the cool water made him want to
sing, but, alas, who was there to sing
to now? Then Old Mr.. Toad was
startled by a familiar voice close to
him. L thought you never would
come" said the voice.
Old Mr.. Toad turned his head and
blinked and blinked unbelievingly.
There was Mrs. Toad, alive and live
ly. He gulped once or twice, then
began to swell out that music bag Of
his. He just had to sing. And after
all, that is what he had come to the
Smiling Pool for.
So it was that the next day, which
was May day, was day of happi-
ness for Old Mr.. Toad. He took his
rightful place in the Smiling Pool
chorus and for the first time this
Spring that chorus was complete and
perfect Never had Old Mr.. Toad
sung better Perhaps that was be-
cause of his joy in having Mrs. Toad
to sing to, when he had supposed
she was lost forever. The Hylas sang
and the Tree Frogs sang and Old
Mr. Toad sang in the Smiling Pool,
and around it, in the alders and
rushes, sang RedWing the Blackbird
and Little Friend the Song Sparrow
