But to turn small defenseless
animal over to the unframed and
unsupervised care of a youngster
is an act of criminal negligence.
The best training in the world
for child is to give him a dog
and to make him responsible for
its training and we'll being.
But the child himself needs
to be watched closely to see
that he does not neglect his
duty.
If it is impressed on him that the
puppy like the human baby thrives
only on regularity and cleanliness,
he will learn not only responsibility.
but also the value of promptness and
order.
An adult should see that the puppy
is fed properly at the prescribed
times, that he is kept groomed and
cleaned and that regular time for
these duties is set aside and the
duties performed at those times.
Trust the youngster himself to
teach the puppy to walk on leash,
to come when called, to fetch and
to do dozen simple tricks. This
sort of teaching is an outgrowth
Of the normal communion between
child and dog. But make the young
ster train his dog to be clean in
the house, to keep off the furniture
and to obey the other rules that
the adult members of the family
think wise.
Must Choose Breed Carefully.
Think ahead when you 60 out to
acquire puppy as a summer COM
panion. What are you going to do
with pooch when vacation is over?
If you contemplate some summary
disposal of the dog at the end of
the summer, don't get any. Forego
the pleasures and benefits of canine
companionship. You don't deserve
to have them.
II you plan on getting pup now,
when you have most leasure to en-
JOY it and train it and plan on
having pal for great many years
thereafter. think hard on the breed
of dog you get.
You may have a great country
estate, vast woods or unlimited sea-
shore for the summer, and Great
Dane, a Scottish deerhound or an
other giant dog would fit nobly into
the picture.
But how about your winter
quarters? What would a
Great Dane do to your two
room apartment in town?
On the other hand, Scottish
terrier or cocker spaniel would
not look out of place in the great
outdoors, nor yet cramped in the
most minute of city apartments.
If you are a calm and sedate per-
son, get a calm and sedate dog.
If you are excessively nervous, get
dog that is rather phlegmatic in
disposition. If you like constant
activity, your best choice probably
would be one of the terrier breeds,

On the race track they "call" the
horses as they round the first turn,
hit the backstretch and move toward
the half-mile post-halfway to
home. Let's call" the ballplayers
as they head up the backstretch
toward July 4-halfway to home.
Let's pick a team from both
leagues, being sure there will be an
argument at almost every position
remembering that the selections
are based only on the form they
have shown from the opening of the
season up to now.
The hardest choice is at first base.
Five players are punched in the
scramble for the lead Jimmy Foxx
of the Red SoX, Dolf Camilli of the
Dodgers, George McQuinn of the
Browns, Frank Mccormick of the
Reds and Hank Greenberg of the
Tigers.
They're all hitting, all doing
swell job around first base. Picking
q man here is no part of a cinch.
But Ill give the nod to Greenberg.
His batting average isn't as high
as that of some of the others. But
runs-not batting averages-win ball
games and Hank is leading in runs,
home runs and runs driven in.
