Many of the dogs are said to be too old for war work and others have been sick so long that the army of- ficials have despaired of their ever being able to engage in active service again, should such service be re- quired. .

The explosions took place almost simultaneously and shook the entire business district shortly after mid- night. Neither theater had opened for the season, and the damage was small as the explosives in each case were placed just inside the stage entrance. The force of the explosion shattered many windows and terrorized hun- dreds of persons in nearby hotels. COUNTRY BOARDING SCHOOL First eight grades. Music and drawing.

Then, “I suppose you want to know how I got her?” I pleaded guilty. “Well, it was like this. I’m fond of horses, and so. is my wife.
