TillS Is a plea for tho little boy who
wants a dog for Christmas. I was
reminded of him the other day on a
train. Across tho nlslo wero two boys,
neither of them little. One was a
toll, rather serious-faced soldier with
a wound stripe on one slcevo nnd two
service stripes on the other. Tho sec
ond boy was a sailor with a, canvas
bag and a leather batr. Neither of
these lads know each other, tho sailor
sitting in one scat and tho soldier Just
back of him.
Suddenly I saw tho soldier lean for
ward over the scat and begin to talk.
Pretty soon he was laughing and those
boys wero having the tlmo of their
lives together. What do you think It
was? A Httlo whlto puppy dog about
ns half as big as a pint of elder. It
seems the sailor had "smuggled" him
on the train. This was tho big com

had both been overscan 'for months

THAT was the puppy dog's first
day In America. And he liked it,
nnd It didn't bother him a bit that
no one could speak Spanish. That Is
tho lovely thing nbout a dog. Ho
speaks all languages. This one, being
very young, talked American with the
aid of a sniffy Httlo noso, two rather
silly blue eyes and a funny little tall
