DOG TELEPHONES FOR


HELP
Harold Banner is Seattle,
Washington, lawyer who is alive
today because he owns an intelli.
gent Scottie dog.
A few weeks ago Banner was
sitting in his apartment reading
when he suffered a heart attack.
He was smoking a cigarette at
the time and it fell on some pa
pers at his feet and started a
brisk blaze. Alone with him at
the time was his dog Mike" a
Scottie.
No one knows just what Mike
did. Perhaps he tried to arouse
his master or maybe he just rae
ed about the apartment barking
for help. But it is known that
when switchboard operator
answered a signal from the Banner
apartment all she heard upon her
request for Number please" was
the. frantic barking Of dog. This
aroused her curiosity to such an ex
tent that she sent a policeman to
investigate. He arrived in time to
discover Banners plight and save
his life.
How the dog figured out that
if he knocked over the telephone
and barked into it that help would
arrive for his master I can't ex.
plain. But the facts are there tc
prove he did just that. Did he
realize that humans could be
reached by the phone? I wonder.
CAR EXERCISING
Now that gas restrictions are
off and more people are using
their automobiles ] wonder il
that foolish and dangerous habit
of exercising dogs by having thArn
chase the family car will again
become prevalent. I hope not for
such procedure does more harm
than good, that is, to the dog in
volved.
Perhaps you have seen people
who use this method of exercising
the family pet. Evidently they are
afraid of exercise themselves or
are just too lazy to walk with their
dogs in the customary fashion. So
they start down the street in the
family car encouraging their dog
to chase after them. To be sure
the dog gests exercise chasing af-
ter the car but not the kind he
should get and while doing this
chasing there is great danger of
his being killed. Many a pet being
exercised in this manner has been
run over at the street intersection.
Exercise your dog regularly but
not by having him chase your auto.

The Wilmington morning star. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1909-1990, 1945-10-14

the chances are they have a com.
pick of some sort. Your dog may
commit suicide by drowning or
starvation if he is jealous, re.
morseful or disappointed in love
Your dog may be inclined to be
moody if snubbed.
AS for murder, that is canine
murder, your dog might even dc
that. But he will do it in SO cases
out of a 100 for either food or for
the attentions of another dog of the
opposite sex.
PLANT GRASS FOR DOG
I planted some grass for my
dogs the other day. Here's why:
Fall is here and the grass is
beginning to wither and die. II
means that your dog will have tc
60 without his salad course"
1t means he will have to 60 with.
out this until next spring, unless
you can find winter grass for him.
Strange as it may seem grass is
very needful part of almost any
dogs diet. He knows when he
needs it, and he picks the variety
he likes or needs most, Seldom
will dog eat grass picked by a
human.
If you have a heated garage or
a room where you can set an old
window box you can crafty in part
your dogs need for an occasional
mouthful of fresh grass. You can
keep this supply more or less all
winter. Somewhere in your house
is a place where the sun pene-
trates and where you can keep a
large shallow box for just such a
purpose. Sow the soil of this
box with grass seed of several
varieties. Once a week, or more
often if the supply holds out, give
your dog a chance to browse there
for awhile. Don't try to feed the
grass to him. Let him bit it off
himself. 1t is one of the best ways
to keep him well, during the cold
grassless winter.

this is just a reminder to start
getting them into shape. Start rum
ming your dog gradually increas-'
ing the length each day so that on
opening day he will be in good
condition. Many a hunting dog has
been lost for the season because
of a too strenuous opening days
hunt when he wasn't in condition
for it. You can't expect dog to run
all day if he has spent the past
ten or eleven months sitting
around the house or kennel.

Line Wide Open
Here For
w Celebration

Thanks to Collector of Customs
Writ G. Bowman, there wasn't any
international line here during the
victory celebration Tuesday as far
as the customs service was concern
ed. LET 'em come across" was his
instruction to customs men.
Apparently the same instructions
were sent out by the immigration
service for thousands of folks came
over from Mexico and joined in the
merry making.
Collector Bowman recalled Tues
day night a similar celebration when
World War I ended Nov. IL, 1918.
AS mayor of Nogales then he had
signs up up reading, Everything
goes except murder, theft and ar
son." There was two mile parade
with two or three bands and it last
ed part of one night, all the next
day and all the next night" he

It is estimated that 10000 to
200, 900 veterans of World War II
will settle in Arizona, Congressman
Richard F. Hairless told Nogales
business men at a meeting at the

Hairless promised to do all he can
to help this community get a vet

Highway Route
May Be
Set In 80 Days

The Arizona Highway Commission
promised Friday to hand down a
final decision on the routing of the
Canada to-Mexico highway through
Arizona within 80 days.
At the conclusion of a meeting OF
the commission in Phoenix, no de-
cision had been reached and the
situation, before the commissioners
almost monthly recently, was still
in the air.
The dispute arises from a desire
of members of the Canada-to-Mexi-
co Highway Association to reroute
the road through Arizona by way OF
Globe, Florence, Tucson and No
gales. The present routing is along
the Coronado Trail which reaches
Nogales by way of Douglas.

How Nogales
Celebrated End
Of World War II

Announcement by President Tru-
man at 4 pm, Tuesday of the end
of World War II touched off the
greatest celebration at Nogales, and
throughout the Allied world for that
matter, since World War I closed
Nov. II, 1918.
Blowing of the siren atop the city
hall, blowing of whistles on locomo-
tives and at Harry Brann's Nogales
Welding & Machine Shop, and ring
ing of church bells, brought thous-
ands of persons here flocking from
stores, offices and homes and in a
very short time the streets were
packed on both sides of the line by
throngs shouting and singing.
Tin cans and other contrivances
were quickly hooked on to automo-
biles to added to tn noise which
lasted well into the night.
It was a celebration NogaleS will
never forget and we doubt if the
folks of any city this side made more
noise and had a better time cele-
brating the end of the greatest and
most costly war in the history of
the world.

worldwide peace, Senator Ernest

warned that the American people

people believing for one moment
that approval of the Charter is all
we~have to do,' the Senator said.
The Senator, who has just. return
ed from Washington following the
recess of Congress, is visiting various
Arizona cities and other communi-
