There still remains to be given
away one handsome, big male
pup at the Lyle Douglases at
Mile 6V2.

This happened a little while
while back, but deserves telling.
Mrs. Reed of Sewarcl one day put
her husky baby in a carry-all
hang ng from her shoulders ond
walked the almost, seven miles

women could perform; and I think
it is wonderful that there are
women who not only can. but
will, do things like that. Such
health and strength arc beauti
ful.
