LEFT-HANDED PATTED DOGS
Some Of our fighting men sta
toned in the Middle East and
Africa noticed that practically all
the native dogs approached their
left side when coming to them for
a morsel of food or friendly pat.
There is reason for this. For
generations the Arabs and Mos
lens have considered the dog un-
clean. They hae a. definite
respect for dogs but avoid touch
ing them except with the Lett hand.
One seldom sees these natives pat.
ting a dog except with his left
hand. Ali dogs in that part Of the
world have learned that mans
contact with them is left-handed,
hence they have learned to ap.
proach from that direction.

STOPPING DOG FIGHTS

Almost ever dog sometime dur
ing his lifetime gets into a fight
with another dog. With some it
happens very frequently. If you
are out with your dog and he gets
into brawl with another dog,
here are a few tips worth remem-
bering:
Never whip fighting dogs. It
only encourages them to continue
fighting. A fight can sometimes
be stopped quickly by choking the
offending animals by placing a
leash or chain around their necks.
Be careful as you do this for a
dog in the turmoil of battle may
unknowingly turn and bite even
his master. Throwing water on
the dogs will sometimes do the
trick. especially if a small amount

TRAIN DOG TO BE TIED

It is advisable to keep a dog in
kennel yard even if the yard
be small, rather than to keep him
tied or chained. But every dog
should be trained to remain quiet
when he is tied. Often 1t is neces-
sary to fasten him, for a short
time, during walk, in a hotel,
or while he is accompanying you
on a shopping or visiting tour.
Therefore, tie him up at home,
for about ten minutes each day.
until he is used to it.
Dogs, unused to tying, will
cringe and cover and tremble.
during the rare times it is neces-
sary to fasten them in this way.
Some will plunge and struggle and
yelp, in a stricken effort to
get free or yark at their bonds
until they are half-strangled. This
wouldn't happen if their owners
had accustomed them to it by ty-
ing them up, at home for a few
minutes every day, and letting
them see there is no danger or
discomfort connected w tn the
process. 1t is needful thing to
learn. and it is easy to teach.
DON'T THROW IT AWAY
We hear a lot about vitamins
these days, especially about the
famous one called B1. Yet most
Of us throw away much of this
vital vitamin contained in some of
our foods before we even eat
them. 1t happens this way. Much
of the vitamins and minerals are
extracted from vegetables when
they are boiled in water. These
vital + d elements are trans
ferred to the water which we
throw down the sink before put
ting the food on the table.
Save this water that vegetables
have been cooked in for your dog.
It will benefit his diet greatly
without much trouble on your

THE FIGHTING GUARDSMAN"E K
 CApII0l'S BILL

Advance reports on Columbia Pic lures The Fighting Guardsman, which starts it's engagement at the Capitol Theatre tonight, say that it is a laundering spectacle of love and adventure storming onto the screen from Alexandre Dumas stir ring novel, The Companions of Jehu." Film fans who go for cos tune pictures filled with swashbuck ling action, flashing swordplay and tender romance, and whata one does not, are promised complete satisfac- ton at the screen adoption of this well-known masterpiece. All the magnificent pageantry, the sweeping power of that turbulent era in eight eenth century France just preceding the Revolution are said to be geo. graphically portrayed and recreated by the magic which is motion pie lures.
 Columbia heralds the return of a favorite son with what is described as the plum role in one of the most thrilling pictures of the year. And Willard Parker, who was just re- gently honorably discharged from the Army. is said to justify fully his studios faith in him. He portrays a dashing young French nobleman who filings aside his birthright and turns outlaw and brigand in an eff fort to ameliorate the terrible con- ditions of the peasants under tyran- nical King Louis XVI.
