U Training I > BYL. J. BROSEMER V .T-Cx*. Director Chsppell Kennel Foundation I^^ Tour Dog" NUMBER THREE—

A TRAINED dog is worth all the time and effort you give him. ; The dog approaches nearest of all dumb animals to understanding the moods of man. He knows when you are glad and when you are sad. His tail tells you he knows and a dog’s ! tail is the most expressive thing in | the world. Our next point is in teaching the : dog not to eat food at any other i place than his regularly appointed ' eating dish. There are still some so-called human beings who purposely put out poisoned food for dogs, cats and the like. Unfortunately, t<he laws, do not provide penitentiary sentences for these wretches The wise course is to train your dog to refuse food offered by strangers and to teach him to avoid eating at any time and place. A well-fed dog is usually disposed to attend to his own affairs. You therefore can save yourself a lot of grief by feeding him good wholesome food regularly at appointed times each day, at the same place and in the same utensils. * * * fj'IRST, take your dog outside Place a tempting morsel just in front of him. (Be sure to do this soon after he has eaten his regular meal.) Os course, he will lurch forward to seize it Command “nix" fiercely. This may not stop him. Hit him, not at all severely and command “Nix." It must be emphasized here that a dog never should be struck on the head, muzzle, or across the loins. To do so is likely to injure his hearing, his sight, or his kidneys. A dog seldom needs chastising and always should be struck on the shoulders or the hindquarters. Next, let a stranger offer the tempting morsel. Repeat the punishment. Then walk with him through an alley and let him run loose. Keep near him, and the instant he moves to take up a piece of refuse or garbage, command “Nix” and move toward him. a a a AND now just a word about barking. Most dogs do not need to be taught to speak, but our lesson is intended to teach him to bark on command. The command is “Speak.” it should be given to him in an entreating voice, “Speak, Spot.” It should not be spoken roughly.

for then the dog may confuse It with barking at an intruder. Have someone knock outside the i door. If the dog barks, encourage him by commanding “Speak." Another way to do this is to say "Speak" to him just before he is : fed. Tempt him with his food, make him sit down by the command | “down" and at the beginning, con- ! rider the least sound or whine from him as sufficient; he will develop the bark later. From this he can be led gradually ; to emit his bark at any time on ; command “Speak." (To Be Continued) GAMBLER IS FREED Kidnapers Release Flanagan at Gary Outskirts, j By Times Special i GARY, Ind., Aug. 12.—William ! C. Flanagan, middle-aged gambler who was kidnaped last Friday as he took his dog for a walk, was freed unharmed early today on the outskirts of Gary. Flanagan, who was reported by police to have ended cut-throat competition among the Steel City's gamblers by organizing a syndicate, was unshaven and tired when released, but said he was “feeling O. K.” He swore that no ransom was paid for his release, but his attorney, J, Glenn Harris, wno had been negotiating with the kidnapers, said: “We haven't paid out a dime—yet.”

ber, the hospital board may consider adding an extra unit. It Is estimated that there are more than 240 Indiana veterans who need hospital care. Only general medical and surgical cases will be admitted. Nervous disorders are being treated at Marion, where provision has beer made for approximately 1,400 patients. The hospital here is to be modem in every respect. Steel and concrete construction is being used throughout. Equipment will be of the best. Work on all four buildings now is proceeding rapidly. Weather conditions have been ideal; no labor difficulties have arisen. Engineers of the Ralph Sollitt & Son Construction Company of South Bend announce that the $613,000 project will be finished early in November. The main building is five stories high. When it is completed, veterans administration quarters will be moved from the Test building to the hospital where regional quarters occupy part of the first two floors. Examining rooms, laboratories, the dispensary and a small operating or

j dressing room also will be located on | the first two floors. One hundred fifty-two bed- will ! be placed on the third and fourth , floors. The fifth floor will be devoted to two large well-equipped operating rooms, nurses work rooms and a recovery room. Quarters for about twenty-six I nurses are being made in a separate building. A store house and a i utility building are being coni structed also. . Employes will be selected on the j basis of standing in civil service examinations. Veterans of all wars are eligible | for entrance. They will be admit- | ted through regional offices. The only stipulation is that the veteran has not been dishonorably discharged from service. An Indiana veteran admitted to the hospital will be treated free of charge regardless of the origin of the injury. Expenses from and to his home will be paid. If necessary, an attendant will be paid his traveling expenses and $5 a day for his time. Dedicatory ceremonies probably i will be held the latter part of No-

vember. However, patients will not be received until the first of the year. Grasshoppers Invade Evansville EVANSVILLE. Ind., Aug. 11Armies of grasshoppers, invading the south side here, are destroying flowers, shrubbery and plants of many Evansville homes.
