Dogs Couldn’t Pass Test In a Berlin test of police dogs, th>aninials failed completely when the) were given the glove of a person and told to pick Hie owner from a row of men.

NAVY PREPARES LAVISH MEALS FOR HOLIDAYS Washington, Dec. 2. — (U.R) — The navy is getting ready for Christmas. Aboard American battleships and cruisers in all parts of the world, “gobs’’ are anticipating a hearty meal of turkey and all the trimmings. Ships carpenters and painters are stealing spare moments to erect and decorate fire-places and Christmas trees for the poor children at the ports where the vessels are docked, who each Christmas are guests of the “gobs.” A tasty and substantia) meal, as well as presents and entertainments, are provided for the children by money contributed by the officers and crew. The navy has no standardized menu for its ships. Each vessel makes its own bi/l-of-fare. A recent Christmas menu for the naval station in San Diego listed: grape fruit, celery, roast stuffed young turkey, cranberry jelly, masked sweet potatoes, asparagus with drawn butter, English plum pudding with hard sauce, French ice cream, confections, nuts, raisins, cigars, coffee and cigarettes. For a week the navy enjoys the holidays. Only necessary work is done and entertainment is the order of the day. Then the fleet starts in on its annual maneuvers and the “gobs” go to work again. ■ o CREAMERY HOLDS CHRISTMAS PARTY (CONTINUED FROM I’AGE ONE) rendered by the phonograph donated for the evening, by the Holthouse Drug Co.
