body was guiltless of any markings;
her ears were strangely reminiscent
of a bloodhound's and her muzZle
betokened some distant kinship with
that of smooth fox terrier. But
undoubtedly, she was rabbit
hound. In a number OF miscel-
laneous sheds and barns could be
heard the yelping of hound puppies.
Underfoot, a couple of roly poly
beagle pups played and around the
yard three or four half-groWn
youngsters shifted and snuffled. Bill,
the owner of the pack, held pup
in his arms and repeated again and
again. 'Iffen any one wants a good
hound. now is the time to buy one
often me. I amt gonna raise any
more, least-ways, not any more'n
what I want myself. I'm a-selling
them cheap to get shut of them.
You can't make your feed on these

the pup tied to the fence, con-

But" says John, this yere little
dog is the best-running little hound
ever had. She's broke fine. The
only trouble is she just doesn't
match the other one have to home.
The other one is just mite leggier
and you know they don't run so
good together if they don't match"
The argument evidently makes
sense. Seeing that he has regis
tered, John follows up with What
sort of a trade will you make me?"
After much hemming and having
Bill says, well, III let you have this

everything as before. Bill comes

than Ary dog I ever had" 'Is she

closely scrutinizes one eye of the
sad-looking pup. Hastily John says,

First-Ha|f Tulane Surge
Routs Sewanee, $50
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 19.-The
powerful Tulane Green Wave ran
up 81 points on the little Sewanee
squad in the first half today and
then coasted on through the flnal
two quarters to an easy 38-to-0
victory.
Sewanee had only eight men In
reserve and the time of the last
two periods was shortened to II
minutes each.
Fred Gloden, Tulane fullback,
made the most spectacular run in
the first period when he broke
through center and raced 80 yards
for the second touchdown.
Sewanee never was in striking
distance of the Tulane goal, max
ing four first downs.
The game was remarkably free Of
penalties, none being assessed in
the first three periods and one each
against Sewanee and Tulane for
on-side in the last period.

Christmas Trade Starts Early.
On every side one hears that the
Christmas trade in puppies this year
has started unusually early. People
are making their reservations for
pups to be delivered by Santa Claus
at a far earlier date than hereto
fore.
And the people who are
making the reservations seem
to be much better informed
about the breeds and types
Of dogs they want than has
been the rule in former years.
A far larger percentage Of re-
quests used to be for q cute, little
puppy than now is true. Nowadays
people know in advance that they
want puppy of a certain breed,
know approximately the age Of pup
they want and the sex. They also
are taking a keener interest in
show points and pedigrees than they
did before, and it doubtlessly is true
that the cult of the pure bred has
circulated through all stratas of
society.
A cat enthusiast of New Jersey,
realizing that most dog lovers also
are cat lovers, writes in a request
that we publish the date of the
annual cat show of the Garden
State Cat Club to be held at the
Hotel Chelsea, Atlantic City, on
November 26 and ~. They will be
judged according to the rules of
