Companionship—A ffection 
—Protection 
READ THE BEST TRUE DOG STORY OF 
ALL TIME 
When one fond parent of ancient Pompeii 
gave his child a dog, he little thought that 
the record of their comradeship would go 
down to the future as the finest dog story 
of all time. For nearly two thousand years 
its details lay buried beneath the debris of 
the ruined city. Last century the picks of 
the excavators revealed them. 
Near to the body of a little boy, they came 
upon that of a huge dog, its limbs contorted 
with agony and pain. Still legible was the 
inscription in Latin on its massive bronze 
collar: “This dog has three times saved his 
little master; once from fire, once from 
drowning, once from thieves.” 
This story, which has the merit of being 
true, is one which could be told to any child 
who had a dog. It is calculated to make him 
think of the dog less as a toy and more as 
a chum and protector. A dog will teach a 
child kindness by giving him something on 
which to express kindliness; it will exem- 
plify for him the qualities of devotion and 
loyalty, the spirit of “give and take,” and 
“forgive and forget.” Not all our moral and 
spiritual mentors have such good qualifications as 
teachers of the young. 
War and Our Pets 
Our dogs and cats, even as you and IJ, must adjust 
themselves to present day shortages of food supplies. 
But don’t worry, dehydrated foods, pellets, meals, 
kibbled and cake forms of foods provide the needed 
nourishment, wholesomeness, for health and “plenty 
of pep.” 
Both you and your Pets are going to benefit in the 
use of dry foods. You, from the money-saving angle. 
Seventy per cent of the formerly used canned foods 
were water. Economy too, as you need only moisten 
what dry food you will need for a feeding. 
Even now laboratory technicians are improving 
good foods. Here at my desk is an announcement I 
have just received of a most notable addition to an 
already good and successfully formulated food. Sci- 
ence constantly searches to better. 
Visit our Pet Department today and receive advice 
on your feeding problems.

I THINK I KNOW NO FINER THINGS THAN 
DOGS 
I think I know no finer things than dogs: 
The young ones, they of gay and bounding heart, 
Who lure us in their games to take a part. 
The old ones, with their wistful, fading eyes, 
They who desire no further paradise 
Than the warm comfort of our smile and hand.
