Sixty-five pups went under the gavel, and movie cameras clicked as they re- corded the continuance of this historic custom. For the dog curb of the town dates back to 1698. Instead of execut- ing stray pooches, Fredericksburg keeps | them safe and sound, and when a good- ly number is collected sells them at public_auction. | "In 1775 the Revolution put a stop to the pup peddling. But eight or ten years ago the dog curb was revived. This year, however, the people of Fred- cricksburg forgot to be picturesque. | (Written | Nort | = ‘Frédericksburg Annual Dog Curb Snapped by Movies as 65 Pups Go ‘The annual mart was neglected. Even the dog catchers had been remiss. Not one vagrant pup was kept in the city | pound. How could the waiting movie cameras record the auctioning of the dogs? But the ever resourceful State Cham- ber of Commerce was prepared. It sup- plies all stage properties needed for conunuiniehlswnc customs. Deer or | dogs can be obtained by request. Sixty- | five dogs were borrowed. A crowd was | ballyhooed. When the movie cameras arrived a picturesque auction was en- acted. Pups were bid in by their legal owners and a crowd of children pro- vided the atmosphere. A historic cus- tom has been preserved. (Copyright, 1920. by the North American Newspaper Alliance.)
