The W ashinyton Merry Go Round
By DKEW PEARSON 1851, py Bell Syndicate. Inc.

WASHINGTON = It hasn't been publicized, but some of the most priceless musical manuscripts in the world appear to have been sto- len by the Russians from the State Library of Berlin.
 These include the Ninth Sym phony of Beethoven; also Mozart's opera "The Magic Flute" and a Mendelssohn oratorio, "The Elijah. " The Ninth Symphony is especially valuable, being the last that Beeth- oven wrote, and having notes on the margin in which Beethoven talks of the brotherhood of man.
 These priceless manuscripts were in the State Library of Berlin when the Russians entered the city. But, despite several years of search by Carleton Smith, Director of the National Arts Foundation, they are still missing.
 Smith, who has restored many important musical manuscripts to their rightful places since the war, learned from the custodian of the State Library that the Russians

Beef Cattle Win the Argument
Over Good-Looking Milk Cows

I know that the dairy business

but it is not for me. I'm going
to swap in my white overalls for a
pair of Western boots and a wide
brimmed hat and go in for the
kind of cattle you eat.
Milk cows are too Temperament
tai. Too many things get them
upset. And they also drink too
much water. II you want to have
a steady flow of milk all year long,
your cows are sure to work them
selves around to where they come
fresh at the same time, and then
you are flooded with milk during
a part of the year, and dry the
rest.
| There is another trouble with
milk cows, too. If you don't watch
out they will become pets. and
then one day you wake up and
find that you are not making
enough salary to feed all the cows
that have been accumulating
about the place.
Every new calf looks prettier
than the last one, and you think
you had better keep her around
a while, because she is sure to
grow into the COW you always
dreamed about.
She will grow. and with every
passing week her appetite will get
bigger. Then one day she is a
COW with calf of her own. which,
incidentally, looks better than she

Whenever it becomes necessary
to administer aid or to diagnose
any troubles your dog might have,
place him on some kind of table
or other platform high above the
floor. You may think this strange,
but it instills confidence in your
pet. For some reason dogs seem
to respect treatment when they
are placed on tables, and you will
always find that they are much
better behaved when handled in
this manner. The use Of table
will be little easier on you, too.
It will permit you to work on your
dog without STOPPING over or sit
ting down on the floor with him.
This is not a pleasant subject,
but it's knowledge may come in
handy for you the next time a
mad dog scare invades your neigh
borhood. So read and remember
it, please.
Not one supposedly rabid dog
in 1000 is really rabid. Far Of
Itener he is only sick or terrified
or stricken with fits. Also, when
a dog froths at the mouth, that is
not a sign Of rabies. Dogs froth
at the mouth from a dozen harm
less causes.
Rabies exists, though 1t is so
extremely rare nobody knows OF
! a 100 per cent sure way to tell
when a dog is mad. The nearest
certain symptom is when his
natural bark becomes high
pitched with a screaming note in
it. Even that rule is not alto
lgether reliable. He may merely
be in pain.
Here is a wise rule for you to
follow: If your dog is sick. handle
him only with thick gloves. Keep
him shut up and quiet. If he has
rabies he will weaken and then
die. But, as I told you, the
chances are at least 1000 to ! that
he is not rabid.

will begin. In some States it /.
