Dogs May Play Part
In Fighting Crime

Out of this war may come new
cures for crime-cures in which dogs
may play part. Already the in
mates of one prison are engaged in
the preliminary training of dogs for
use of the Army. The results are
proving worthwhile both for the new
trainers and for the recipients of
the dogs. Fundamental obedience
training has been successfully in
culcated in some dogs by prisoner
handlers in less than two weeks.
This gives the prisoner trainer a
new slant on the needs for obedi-
ence training and law obeying.
Mrs. John Anderson always has
had the reputation of being one
of the dressed women in local
