Here's You Dish. id Among the most romagkallE dog stories is one Sir Walter tt told a friend about a bull terrier -- 1: 1he wigest dog he ever had. "Camp once bit the baker, who was bringing bread to the family," he said. "I beat him, and explain- ed the enormity of his offence; after which, to the last moment of his lite, he never heard the least allusion to. the story, in whatever voice or tone it was mentioned, without getting up and retiring into the darkest cor-: ner of the room, with great ap- pearance of distress. "When you said, 'the baker, was well paid,' or, 'the' baker was not hurt after all' Camp came forth from his hiding - place, capered, and barked, and rejoic- ed, He certainly had a singular knowledge of spoken language." An old book of dog anecdotes mentions an Edinburgh grocer's dog to whom a pieman once gave a pie. The next time the dog heard the pieman's bell he ran to him, seized him by fhe coat, and wouldn't let him pass. The pieman showed him a pen- ny, then pointed to his master who stood watching at a street door. The dog at once went to him, begged furiously, and on re- ceiving a penny, carried it in his mouth to the pieman and got his ple. This became a regular prac- tice. A remarkable example of can. ine know-how occurred during a severe snowstorm when the ,fowls on a Scottish farm did not 'return at the hour they usually retired to roost. Presently the 'house-dog entered the kitchen carrying in his mouth a bedrag- led hen, laid it on' the warm earth, ran off again, returned with another, and so continued until 'all were rescued. Numbed by the extreme cold, they had ard, and the dog, seeing them, ad carried them in ta be revived by the fire. = It's not only Scottish air that makes a dog canny. A dog with "extraordinary sense belonged to horse brought to the house by a .- horse brought to-the rouse by a servant. As the man was on his ly bolted. The dog sprang after it, got hold of the bridle, and brought the galloping horse to a standstill. In. Melbourne, Derbyshire, where cocks and hens used to run about the streets, a game- cock fought furiously with a small bantam, which got. the Some people stood by, looking on, Then a dog "suddenly darted out, snatched up the bantam in his mough, and carried it into his master's house. Several onlookers followed ex- pecting it to be killed and eaten.

Then, writes Trevor Allen in the canine wonder belonging to a famous Italian family, which always at- tended its master's table, took his plates and brought others, carried wine to him in a glass on a salver, held in Its mouth, with- out spilling it, and held the stir- rup in its teeth while he mount- ed his horse, A certain lady's collie, ordered to ring the bell, did so; but if told to ring the bell when the servant was in the room, refus- ed, looked at the servant, and barked. If his mistress again said, "Ring the bell, dog," he laid hold of the servant's coat as if "Don't you hear that, I am to ring the bell for you? Come to my lady!" When a New York newspaper seller was ill, his son took his place and, nbét knowing the sub- scribers, took as. guide a dog which had 'usually accompanied his father. Trotting on ahead of the boy, the dog stopped at every door. where the paper was regu- eft, not missing one or: nmiaking a mistake, -- ~~ A London gentleman owned a clever spaniel. Oné"day in 1792, he entered the pit of Drury Lane 'Theatre at about 5.30 p.m. having left his King Charles's spaniel locked in the dining-room, At eight o'clock the dog immediately ran to the playhouse and 'located his master though he was near the middle of a crowded pit. A fashionable young eighteenth century lady was taking a walk in Tunbridge Wells when a New- foundland snatched her. parasol from her hand and ran off with it. Keeping ahead, the dog con- stantly looked back to see that she was following, and at length stoped. at a' confectioner's: and went inside. _ Failing to get the dog to give the sunshade back, she asked the shopman to help. "It's an old trick of the dog's to get a bun," he said. "Give him one, and he'll return your property." She bought him one and he at once surrendered the parasol. A French newspaper is the source of a story about a retired businessman and music-lover who got his whole household choral singing and playing instruments, and resolved to bring his dog into it, too. At every false note from voice or instrument down came his cane on the back of his small spaniel, who promptly howled. In time she became so sensitive to false notes that she instantly howled without waiting for the cane. A shoeblack on the Pont 'Neuf in Paris had a poodle who was trained to roll himself in the Seine mud and dirty the well-polished . shoes of anyone crossing the bridge, so that his master would get the job of cleaning them! Another clever poodle, owned by a Cheshire gentleman, always attended church, staying quietly in the pew whether his master was there or not. One Sunday the dam of a neighbouring lake gave way flooding the road, so only a few worshippers from nearby cottages attended. But the dog was in his pew, dripping wet, having swum over a quarter of a mile to get there. Bill, a fireman's terrier, always attended his™ master on duty, climbing the escape ladder, leap- ing into the burning house and dashing about to find its occu- .pans, barking loudly for help it he located any. A collar was presented to him as a reward for his bravery. tt The German mathematician. Zacharias' Dase, once multiplied two 100-digit numbers togather -- in his; head. ' banging on the door.

From Hospital Bed Direct To Prize-Ring It was about three o'clock one morning when Joe Gould's phone' rang. Tex Rickard was on: the phone and he wanted Joe at his office at once, Gould got into his clothes and ran for a cab. As soon as Rickard saw Gould he shouted. to him across the room, "Hey, Joe, I'm in a spot. I need someone to fight Angel Firpo in Havana, You've got a boy named Italian Jack Herman. Do you want to go down to Ha- 'vana with him to meet Firpo?" "Sure, Tex," replied Joe with- | out a moment's hesitation. "We'll. - leave in the morning." The contract was hastily drawn up. Herman and Gould's 'end of the purse was to be $5,000. And Joe rushed out of Rickard's of- fice to find his fighter. He had forgotten that he "had not seen his 'boy for several months and didn't even know whether the boxer was alive, . * 'Gould began to search fraa- tically since he was working against time, Finally, after sev- eral hours, he traced Herman to a rooming house in Hoboken. At five in the morning, Joe was At last, a sleepy landlady poked out her head and demanded -to know what Joe wanted at this ungodly hour. : "Where's Jack Herman?" screamed Joe. "I've got to see him right away!" . "Go away," replied the angry landlady. "He's in the hospital. He's been there for weeks!" - # Shocked by 'the information, but not at all dismayed, Joe Gould dashed for the local hos- pital and bribed his way to Jack Herman's room. The fighter was sound asleep. Joe shook him vigorously. "Jack!" he shouted. "Jack, wake up!" Herman woke with a start, to see wild-eyed Joe Gould leaning over him, "What are you doing here?" gasped Herman. «"Am I dying or something?" "Don't be silly!" snapped Joe. "This is no time to die. Come on, get up, we got to go to Havana to fight Angel Firpo on Sunday. Hurry up, you sap, we got to catch a train!" Jack Herman shook his. head mournfully. "I can't go," he whispered. "I can't fight, Joe, I got a pain in the belly. The doc says 1 got appendicitis, maybe." "Appendicitis, he says!" yelled Gould, "Are you out of your . Don't Move.

For $5,000, how can you afford to have appendicitis?" The reluctant Jack --Herman dutifully climbed out of bed and got dressed. Joe Gould got him to the train in time and tendet- ly tucked him into bed. - Hearing that ice was good for appendici- tis, he instructed Jack to keep a good-sized pack on his tummy, and keep buying as much-as he 'needed for the trip. Italian Jack Herman made it to Havana and finally got into the ring for his match against Angel Firpo. For all his heroie .measures, Joe took a bad beat- ing. Firpo knocked his boy out in--the second round but the $5,000 purse did a little to soothe the wily manager. ~ Then came the totting up of expenses, One item hit Joe Gould right between the eyes. It read: "Ice -- $260." Joe yelled for Jack Herman and asked how come, "You told me," said the inno- cent Herman. "I bought all that -ice to put on my belly for the appendicitis." "Why, you bum!" screamed Joe Gould. "For 260 clams you ~can buy a whole iceburg! What are wou trying to hand me?" "I-don't care what you think," answered Jack. "I needed {ce for my appendicitis and. $260 it is. That stuff melts, you know!" Joe Gould had to give in and pay for the ice out of his own share of the purse. And it was only months later that Tex Rick- ard found out that smart little Joe Gould had pawned off on him + a sick fighter kidnapped from-a hospital. It was much too late to do anything about it then. Grounds For Divorce The clerk of the Yuma, Ari- zona, Superior Court received a request from a Los Angeles man for a certified copy of a mar- riage license issued in 1939 to himself and "a lady whose * name I have forgotten." Judges of the Paris Divorce Court got a new one to figure out 'when a woman sued her husband for damages because she had had six children. In Knoxville, Tennessee, Mrs. Elmore Fryar, suing for divorce, asked for her hiisband"s motor- cycle as alimony. "Whiler he never = actuall struck me," explained Sarah Sanders, suing Edward Sanders for divorce, "he would go around-- slamming his fist against d and saying, 'I wish it was you,'" William Wilson™ divorced his wife because she took his false teeth and held them for $2 ran- som, : .

From t iy 'cities it will be delivered on | 'order to 'hospitals and drug stores well before the onset of the polio epidemic season: The Canadian-produced fight= ter against polio and measles --and hepatitis as well----comes from the new Montreal Plant .-of Lederle Laboratories. Until now "the only Gamma Globulin available' in Canada has been produced for the 'Fed- eral government. Suplies thus made available are distributed to provincial Departments of Health .in polio epidemic areas on the basis of relative urgency of need. The Lederle product is made from blood obtained through arangements with hospitals in all parts of Canada. Since no donated blood from the Red Cross or other agencies is used by Lederle, the Red Cross do- nation program is in no way affected except to be supple- mented by this development, ~ Gamma Globulin is by no means a new discovery. Used for many years against measles, it became well known as a pro- tective agent against polio as the result of trials conducted in the United States in 1952. Not "to be. confused with the polio vaccine now - under-going tests, Gamma Globulin is still medical science"s best 'known weapon, against polio -- even though It -offers only temporary immunity against the dread disease.

"The man looked up at me," continued Judge Semler, "and I noted his woebegone expression. He spoke quite softly, too.

Blind Golfers Shoot For Seagram Trophles Uncanny putting that enabled some contestants to average less than two green strokes per hole featured the final round of inter- olub competitions in which seven blind golfers were chosen to rep- resent Canada in the International Blind Golfers Team Champion- ships at Lambton, July 21-28. ,Members of the Canadian team are: Phil Lederhouse, Prince Al. bert, Sask.; Nick Genovese, Dun- das; Charles Tooth and Harold Mitchell, both of Hamilton; John MacPherson, Regina; Roy Mee- han, Burlington, Ont,, and Claude Pattamore, Hamilton. The International Blind 'Golt Championships are. being spon- sored by the Royal Canadian Golf Association and the House of Seagr In tournament pla the an and American tea players will be competing for three Seagram trophles -- one for the team championship, a team championship, a second for the international individual blind golf championship. Theor- etically, the Canadians could take all three trophies but still compa- ales, tition is promised by the Amaeri---- can entries, some of whom have the advantage of year-round prac- tice. In recent inter-club competi. tions, several of the Canadians have been showing excellent form. The putting game of Nick Geno- vese and Charlie Tooth would have done credit to sighted and 'seasoned golfers. For 18 holes at Niagara - on - the - Lake, Geno- vese needed only 33 putting strokes and Tooth 35, both put- ting below the average of two strokes per hole on the day. Phil Lederhouse had the lowest ag- gregate- score in four qualifying rounds. The Prince Albert player, who operates a canteen and a checking concession, shot 197 for his last. He Couldn't Lose _ Strange story of a man's ingeni- ous scheme for obtaining $2500 to pay for his fare home from the East was told in a British House of Commons debate recently. The man acquired for nothing a thousand glass bottles and filled them with water coloured by harmless matter. Then he toured local villages in China, asking in each if there were any expectant mother there, * He sold bottles of the liquid to each expectant mother for $5 and told them it would ensure their delivery of a son. He prom- ised to return the monev if it was a daughter. The babies were born, 500 boys and 500 girls. The man promptly returned $2500 to the mothers who had delivered girls and kept the remaining $2500 to pay his passage home, GREATEST OF ALL Sightseeing behind the Iron Curtain a visitor noticed two oil paintings. He inquired about" the first, and was told it was a pic- ture of the great Russian in- ventor Ivanov, "who invented radar, wireless, artillery, rail- ways, X-rays, and so on." After he had recovered from this, the visitor asked about the second -partrait, which was con- siderably bigger. "That," he was told, "is a picture of [Petroviteh, our greatest inventor.
