DOGS EARN THEIR KEEP Perform Useful Chorea for Their ' Owners in Country and in Town In the eyei of most persons "dog" spells "pet," yet by far the largest number of America's dogs earn their keep by rendering useful service! for their owners, according to the flainM TVtff Rocparrh New York City. By way of proof, it need only be pointed out that of the nation's esti mated dog population of 15,000,000, almost eleven million live with fam ilies in rural districts?on farms, ranches, and in small towns. Here for the most part they have their special chores?such as keeping an eye on the sheep, bringing in the cows, keep ing watch on the home premises, etc.? chores which would otherwise take up the time and energy of a member of the family or the hired man. The essential usefulness of the dog in American life can be demonstrated in another way. Dogs are usually clas sified in six distinct groups: Sporting. Hounds, Working, Terriers, Toys and Non-sporting dogs. American Kennel Club registrations over the years show the numbers in the three first-men tioned groups ? definitely kept for useful purposes?to be about twice those of the other three classifications. As a matter of fact, it is the excep tionally large number of hunting dogs within its borders that is responsible for North Carolina, with its approxi mately 980,000 dogs, being the leader in dog population among all the states. This is not to imply that dogs not included in the so-called working and hunting classifications are not useful. A dog is a dog, whether a tiny Chi huahua or a huge St. Bernard, and i is capable of performing many useful tasks taught him by his master, in addition to providing joyful com panionship, selfless devotion and other qualities associated with the dog through the ages. But whatever a dog's contribution to his owner, he occupies a unique position as a member of the family. This is highlighted in a survey made by the Country Gentleman. The study showed that when a dog's , health needs looking after the father of the family attends to it in 44 per cent of the cases, the mother in 38, , the son in 23, and the daughter in 10 ( per cent (From these figures it is evident that in many familes more 1 than one person is responsible for i the dog's welfare.) The same holds , true in the matter of feeding. The mother is responsible for feeding the dog in 73 per cent of the cases, the 1 son in 27 per cent the father in 24 ? and the daughter in 22 ner ???? Garden Club Meeting -j The Graham Garden Club had (ts initial meeting for the fall Mrs. Claude Williams on Parker street Tuesday afternoon of- lan ieek. The president, Mrs. f.' t, Johnson, presided. dther of ficers of the club are Mrs. - W. fimdet-Thompson, vice presRfeftt; Mrs.'J.'W.Holt, treasurer; Mrs. Jphn Bt. Stratford, secretary; Mrs. CUmde Williams, program chairman; Mrs. R. Ts. Cook, cor responding secretary. .. Mrs. WUHwhs presented, the Year Books with the hostesses for the year and programs! The committee project chair man for the year is Mrs. W. M. Lodge. A new and interesting committee was appointed, called "This Is The Time," which will be a great help to the gardeners. Mrs. W. A. McAdams and Mrs. H. G McElroy compose this com mittee. In County Court Judge A. M. Carroll presided at the regular session of County Criminal Court Monday and pass ed out the following judgments: Albert W. Hawkins, illegal pos session and transportation of whiskey for sale, $75 and costs. C. E. Hall, illegal possession of whiskey for sale, $50 and costs. Harvey Johnson, oelling whis key, $75 and costs.

Bonds Over America DODGE CITY Named for Col. Henry I. Dodge. I Dodge City, Kansas, became one of \ the country's most picturesque cat- I tie centers, the cowboy capital of the southwest. There the Santa Fe and Arkansas River Trails met. Trav ellers came with stories of Indian attacks on wagon trains. Cowboys drove in herds of thousands of cattle for shipment east on the railroad. Others rested and watered herds of young steers there before going north. The songs of soldiers and hunters mingled with the shouts of cowboys. Fearless, spirited men whose grandsons are now turning back the enemies far overseas founded that city. War Bonds fur nish weapons and food for the meq fighting today to fulfill their ances tors' dreams, v. s. T Most From Soap To get full cleaning power of soap, use just enough and dissolve it thor oughly. Mild soap is best for ordi nary washing; stronger soap, for very dirty or greasy clothes. Strong soap or chemicals are hard on both fabrics and washer. Soap flakes, chips, beads and powder save time by dissolving quickly in water, but bar soap, shaved or grated and then made into a soap jelly with a little boil ing water, may be cheaper. Whisk the water about as the soap goes In, 4o dissolve it completely before the clothes go in. This prevents soap spots on clothes. Use just enough soap to make suds about two inches thick. Too much or too little soap does not wash satisfactorily. If the suds thin out in washing, more soap may be added.
