He was a small black wire-haired From terrior. a mailmans point of view, it seemed that the dogs only objective in life was to harass the mail- His harassment was he was a yapper, you know the kind; the ones that begin their from the time the mail man (or anyone else they decide to bark at) comes in sight, until hes gone from sight in the other direction. Dont be Second, he was a biter. decieved into thinking that a little dogs bite isnt effective. As long as an eye was kept trained on the dog he was content to stay a respectable distance behind, and maintain a contant barrage of yapping. It took about 3 seconds, once the guard had been dropped, to dash in, sink his teeth in the lower part of the calf, and dash to a safe distance away. There he would resume his yapping and wait for another chance. As though that, by itself, not humila-tin- g After his daily exercise, enough. the dogs mistress would gather him up in her arms, to cuddle and pet him as if to say you did a fihe job today. It wasnt until after my leg had been dotted with tooth marks that I plotted to, put an end to the dogs yap yap biting career. Not to do him in, but to break him of his distasteful habit. Now, in areas where the mail is delivered on foot, they use leather straps about three feet long to tie the bundles of mail. They also have a nice heavy buckle on one end for tying.

For several days I practiced swinging the strap behind me in a figure eight pattern and before long was able to do so with a fair degree of accuracy. The return was perfect. The day arrived. I approached the dogs house with confidence; the strap was coiled snuggly about my wrist. The dog took up his accustomed position behind me and began the ritual yapping. I turned my head for a moment to give the dog his awaited chance man. VOLUME. 71 CA8TLE DALE, EMERY COUNTY. UTAH M51S' NUMBER 11 THURSDAY, MARCH 1970 two-fol- d. First, Vet ng move in. At that moment I noticed the dogs mistress sitting by the window and at that instant I made a quick shift in stragety The change was to swing the strap directly behind me rather than, the planned, to practiced figure-eig- ht motion. I swung. . The dog was a faster than the buckle; he sidestepped out of its path. Upon reaching length, the buckle reversed direction and came to rest solidly, on the back of my head. For about thirty minutes I continued the route in a sort of daze and didnt : figure out until later wherein the plan had failed. nd split-seco- full-str- ap P Power and Light Co. discolsed Thursday that a definite site had not dolyet been selected for a multi-millisteam electric comlar, plex proposed for the central Utah area.
