Children Hold Pet Stock Show Out At Elmwood Park Nig, a curly-haired black dog, was the hero at a pet show held yester- day afternoon in Elmwood park. All of the pets viewed this canine visitor with envious glances. Nig was brought by Lloyd Russell, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Russell of 4817 Pop- pleton avenue. At 3 a. m., May 12, 1914, this dog awakened the Russell family when the home was burning. Mr. flusscll was out of the city and Mrs. Russell barely had time to res- cue her children. She said she owed her life to the dog. Attendants at the pet show made much over Nig, who took these attentions with seem- ing canine grace, wagging his tail good-naturedly. Master Russell also took his five white rabbits and two baby squirrels to the show. Joseph Murphy pointed with pride ;’q his bantam chickens and white rab- it.
