crat, of Missouri. In support of his
statement he revealed figures
which show that the first fifteen
Presidents took office at an aver
age age of fifty-four and lived an
average of eleven years after they
retired. In recent years they have
gone in younger but lived only
half as long.

Chicago Firemen
Have Talking Dog
CHICAGO, (ff)—The firemen at
the suburban Cicero station swear
that Sam, a dog who drops in oc
casionally, can talk.
Joseph David, assistant chief,
said he and several other firemen
had heard Sam make several re
marks, “and it sounds just like
talk.”
‘‘That dog controls his bark so it
comes out like words,” David said.
Sam’s master, Edward Nowy,
who lives near the station, brought
him in the other day and offered
him a piece of his favorite liver
sausage, David said.
“The dog slowly produced a
i
sound that said just as clearly as
I’m saying it, ‘I want it’,” the as
sistant chief declared.
Nowy says Sam, a four-year-old
shepherd, also says “I want out,”
and “Water.”
Sam was trained by Nowy’s
daughter, Jeanne, a teacher of
backward children, at Champaign.
