Woof! G-R-R! I’m Here

(NEA Service, New York Bureau) Woof! Meet ‘‘Private Padget,” successor to pupdom’s most coveted post of honor, that of mascot of the United States Marine Corps The Royal English Marines presented Private Paget to their fellow seasoldiers in America and this photo of him was made upon his arrival at New York on the S. S. Leviathan.

‘Private Pagett’ Marine Mascot, Going on Tour

Every ‘Leatherneck’ Post in Country to Be Visited by British Dog. NEW YORK, July 2.—“ Private Pagett,” just arrived from England to become the second mascot of the Marines, after a brief rest in Washington, is to start on one of the most reckless journeys ever taken by a bulldog. He is to visit every Marine port in this country, as well as the Marines stationed in the West Indies, so that all may have a chance to see what a fine gift the British Royal Marines picked out for them. A real “leatherneck” is to be his escort, and the fortunate man will soon receive careful instructions on taking care of a pedigreed English bulldog. “Private Pagett’s” taste is said to be most varied, with a great preference for vegetables and eggs, when properly prepared, and a slight preference for marmalade. On the expedition he is about to make “Private Pagett” will be “the troop dog.” The Marines have now two mascots. After the death of “Sergeant Major Jiggs” they acquired “Sergeant Major Jiggs II.” The Royal Marines were meanwhile collecting their coins for the purchase of a real English bulldog. “There is not going to be any misunderstanding of duties between them,” says Major Fegan. “ ‘Sergeant Major Jiggs ll’ still will have his duties to perform. He will be the athletic mascot, whose duty it is to accompany the football, basketball and other teams.” Major Fegan declared that the two mascots woulcj. not even be introduced and he pledged his word for it, so far as he was concerned, that ‘lnever the twain shall meet.” He wouldn’t risk the consequences. “Private Pagett” gets his name from a book called “The Per-Ad-ventures of Private Pagett,” by Lieut. Col. Williams Price Drury of England, Private Pagett being the typical British marine.

CHAPTER XLyil Don replaced the dictagraph in the leather bag and,with Teddy, followed Pop and his distinguished visitors into the city room. "We’ll stage this thing right,” Pop Brooks had said. “The Waldens did not spare us in the makinng of spectacles and sensations, and we’ll not spare them!” The very air that hung over the roof of the Catawba City Times building seemed to presage the tragedy of coming events. True, the sun ad filtered m through Teddy’s window that morning as if pledging a day’s brightness. But by noon a sickly leaden fog half obscured the daylight. No breeze came in through the high, wide windows, thrown open in the city room. Things seemed to be standing still, waiting The hour hand on the clock touched 1:45 p. m. The spectators and the participators in the little drama gathered one by one. Roger Brooks, Donald Keene, Teddy Farrell, Judge Wharton, and District Attorney Bolton had arrived early. It has been a sunny morning and the little sob sister was dressed in white. The dainty, short-sleeved frock of crepe de chine was a marked change from the reporter’s usual severely business-like or boyish dress. But was not this a gala day, a triumphal day? At 2 o’clock, Teddy told herself, she was going to experience an epochal moment And, she reflected, with a stir of pride, she had been in part instrumental in the making of that moment possible. That was the grand thought. She watched Don with loving eyes as he set the leather bag under the judicial table, pushing it back out of .sight. "It’s been a long, hard flght for us to reach this day, Ted,” he whispered, his lips close to her ear. “Yes, I know, Don,” she returned, also in a whisper. Her eyes shone.

Dinny appeared and hastened to the girl’s side. “You’ll sit beside me, won’t you, Teddy?” he asked, with pathetic eagerness. “Sure, if you want me to, Dinny.” She favored the earnest reporter with a comradely smile. It was just a meager offering, that smile, but to Dinny even a crumb of affection was precious. He brightened like a child wljp, after a long siege, had obtained permission to go to the movies. Diana arrived. With her was Lola. Each girl was modishly and expensively dressed. As they passed along the corridor to the city room to greet Pop, standing meditatively by a window, they left a trailing fragrance of exquisite perfume behind. Don, hovering in their wake, inhaled the suddenly enticing air, susceptible to odors as a thoroughbred setter. The district attorney bowed gravely when Pop, assuming the formalities, presented his daughter and niece to the judge and him. It was Diana’s face that the prosecutor’s attractive blue eyes caught and fastened. Diana decided that she liked this serious-minded young man. “I don’t believe you mingle much in our playtimes,” she said, her glance shifting between the blue eyes and the silver-streaked mass of rippling black hair. “Scandalous,” she added laughingly, “that I’ve never met our district attorney before. You must come some time to one of our affairs.” “I don’t find much time for social diversions,” replied Bolton. “And to be frank,” he added with his sudden rare smile, "I’m of the opinion that I’d And it rather boring.”

“You are, Indeed frank, Mr. Bolton,” smiled Diana. “But try and come sometime. The social swim is not altogether unlike vice, you know. Alexander Pope, if you’ll remember, said: ‘Vice is a monster of so frightful mien that, to be hated, needs but to be seen. But seen too oft, familiar with her face, we first endure, then pity, then embrace.”’ The fascinating young district attorney flashed his quick smile at her. It brought out strikingly his heralded winsomeness. One found it easy to understand why sob sisters had doubted him "a ladykiller.” “And you would ask me to embrace a frightful monster. Miss Brooks?" he asked lightly. ”oh, it’s not quite so formidable as that,” laughed Diana. “You’ll probably end like I have, by merely enduring it.” "They’ll come!” Roger Brooks made the declaration in response to Judge Wharton's remark regarding the lateness of the Waldens. ‘lt’s just five minutes after two,” he added, comparing the Judge’s watch with the clock on the wall.
