Show t)OG TALES (Submitted by Mr. RMmrd Morris. Frankllnville N. V.) ' ritz was a pampered Belgian hepherd, and like most pampered ; I pets, he had a favorite spot for . i keeping warm on cold days on top ! of a foot-square floor register in the downstairs hall. i ( He had spent many a contented hour in that cozy corner ; ! when the snow was falling so hard outside. But Fritz was I I a watchdog. He had been taught to post himself each night j on the landing of the stairs between the first and second floors. ' ' One particularly frigid night, Fritz was snoozinD- on the ; landing of the stairs, but he evidently didn't appreciate the i ; chilly air that swept across him." His dog mind must have " j started working overtime, for somehow an idea struck him : that was quite an achievement from a clog's viewpoint. His Master tells that he was awakened suddenly in the middle of the night by a loud crash and clatter, and bounding bound-ing out of bed, he raced toward the stairs to learn the cause of such a racket. What he found amused him highly, and brought about a great respect for his dog. For, on the landing of the stairs was one shaggy Belgian Shepherd, faithful to his duty, but also mindful of his comfort, sleeping peacefully on top of ' a ten-pound floor register. j Somehow he had pulled it out of the floor downstairs and dragged it up the stairs to the landing. I Givp your dor an extra pat for his constant loyalty. And ffa : feed him well with the nutritious dog food, unrationed. at "f your grocer's.
