George Batts looks at his dog

Brownie and thinks of the truth

i the eulcgy delivered by Sen. |George Graham Vest, who said: k 'The one, absolute, unselfish, friend that man can have in this selfish worid, the one that never deserts hin, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacher‘ous, is his dog."

BROWNIE TAKES pride in being known as the best-dressed dog-on N. Illinois st. Brownie also believes that he patronizes the best tailor in town. ' | George Batts, Brownie’s master. Mr. Batts knitted the dog’s sweater. And dces® Brownie strut ‘when the “boss” permits that garment to be woin! | In fact, the dog is so proud of the sweater that he enjoys cold weather, a time for wearing Mr. Batts’ sartorical creation. The dog helps Mr. Batts run two newsstands on N, Illinois st. --one at the Market st. intersection and the other at the New York st. intersection. Brownie helps out by being silent. He just gets into a box ander the newspapers—and keeps quiet.

All of which causes Mr. , Batts to philosophize.“Animals reflect their surroundings,” he says. “Their faces grow refined or stupid, according to the people with whom they live. A domestic animal will become good or bad, frank or sly, sensitive or stupid, not only because of what its master teaches it, but also because of what the master is.” Brownie and Mr. Batts have been pals for a year—that is, since Brownie was a pup.

IN USE AT TECH

Sounds 1st Air Raid Alert; Senior Class to Present Play April 24.

The horse may never draw -another fire engine in Indianapolis, but the sirens that used to dash to the fires with Old Dobbin now are going back into service. One of them has been turned over to Tech high school for use in air raid drills—and, if necessary, in
