Police Dog Proves His Humanness Michael is a beautiful golden sable thoroughbred police dog, whom you have probably seen romping in the park, accompanied by his 85-year-old mistress, Alice B. MacDonald, formerly of Salt Lake City. Michael is six years old, some teeth missing, but still the romp-loving puppy of yorg. Alice is never without Michael, he accompanies her everywhere. There is a true sense of understanding between the two, and they converse in a manner known only to genuine dog lovers. The two have a high mental plane of communication, something shared by all lovers of dogs and other pets. Something surpassing simple animal smartness shines out of the intelligent eyes of Michael, it's a soul that one sees shining—a life that only a person who understands a dog could see. Michael understands every word that his mistress says to him, and a great many that she doesn't say to him. With Michael it's not the understanding of the word in the pure sense of the meaning, it's sensing the meaning of his mistress, and of all those with whom he comes in contact. Michael dearly loves to fetch a stick when thrown, and will catch a highly thrown stick with the ease of a major league fielding star. When one is held out at arm's length, Michael will jump up and take it without even disturbing the position of the fingers. All though the romp, Michael will grin and bark with the glee of any boy at play. When a person talks to him, strokes his head and scratches him behind the ear, he will stand or lie tense.

Works for Betterment of Its People-Nation The Mexican-American Movement is an organization to “improve conditions among the Mexican-American and Mexican people living in the United States.” The organization is fully convinced that the best way to give the betterment of its people through “a process of education.” They are involved in a well-planned program to gain a mutual understanding between America of Mexican descent and America of Anglo descent. “The aim to base all endeavors on cooperation, sympathy and encouragement.” Their chief argument is the support of Americans of Mexican descent is that by raising the social level of those... Michael dearly loves to fetch a stick when thrown, and will catch a highly thrown stick with the ease of a major league fielding star. When one is held out at arm's length, Michael will jump up and take it without even disturbing the position of the fingers. All though the romp, Michael will grin and bark with the glee of any boy at play. When a person talks to him, strokes his head and scratches him behind the ear, he will stand or lie tense with delight and comprehension, and will try to talk in reply with eager whines and whimperings. When a body forgets to throw Michael's stick, he will stand over his stick and bark demandingly until one picks it up and gets back to business again. The dog is extremely fond of small children and when one comes and roughly pulls his ears and tumbles over him, and performs other rough antics in playful fun, Michael stands still shivering with apparent gratitude and kisses them with his clean, red tongue. Michael is especially gentle with small animals. Alice relates the time when a pair of small, helpless kittens were thrown over the fence, and he immediately took charge of them. He taught them to drink their milk, and would lie in his bed with the kittens cuddled up against him, would keep them warm and guard against the chill of the night. He would keep them clean as their own mother would have done, and would not allow any other dog to come near them. Later, when they were fully-grown cats, they were always near him, and would follow Michael wherever he went. But the most eloquent testimony of Michael's humanness, occurred when the soldiers were going overseas. A young, attractive girl came into the park while Michael and his mistress were there one morning and sadly sat down on a bench, oblivious of everything but her fear and loneliness for her soldier boy. As was his wont, Michael went up to her with his stick and waited for her to throw it so he could fetch it back. She did this three times, and the third time sank her head between her shoulders, and softly began to sob. When Michael saw this, he left his stick where she had thrown it, and going up to her sat down, and placed his cool nose on her neck in silent comforting sympathy with her sorrow. His mistress came to her and softly said, "Michael is sorrowed." He declared the policy of the collector's office has been courtesy to the taxpayer and efficient service in handling county funds, a policy which will be continued. More Equipment Being Installed By Telephone Co. Construction work on 28 small concrete buildings spaced about eight miles apart between Los Angeles and the Colorado river started this week by the Southern California Telephone company. The buildings will be used to house amplifying equipment for the new transcontinental coaxial cable scheduled to be completed late next year. Automatic "booster" equipment necessary to maintain an adequate flow of current passing through the coaxial cable will be housed in the new buildings, which are designed especially to retain even temperature conditions. Extending from Los Angeles eastward, the southern California segment of the coaxial cable named because each of its eight tubes has a copper wire as its axis through which high-frequency current is directed—will pass through Alhambra, El Monte, Covina, San Dimas, Upland, Cucamonga, Fontana, Redlands. Yucaipa, Beaumont, Banning, Cabazon and Whitewater. It will then cross the desert, following close to the route of the Los Angeles aqueduct, and pass through Desert Center before reaching Blythe. The small repeater buildings housing the vital re-energizing equipment will be erected in or near all towns through which the cable will pass except Whitewater and El Monte. At these places the coaxial cable will pass through the existing telephone buildings. The cable's eight coaxial tubes will each be capable of carrying 480 one-way telephone conversations. The complex cable also is suitable for the transmission of radio and television and eventually may carry transcontinental television programs because it can provide static-free, even reception over long distances. When this new coaxial goes into operation, the present 1500 long distance circuits connecting the east and the west coasts will be materially expanded, and about convinced that the best way to get the betterment of its people through "a process of education."

When Michael saw this, he left his stick where she had thrown it, and going up to her sat down, and placed his cool nose on her neck in silent comforting sympathy with her sorrow. His mistress came to her and softly said, "Michael is sorry for you, and that is his way of telling you that everything will be alright, and that your soldier boy will come back to you." The girl cheered up, and true to Michael's prediction her soldier boy did come back to her. If you would like to meet Michael, walk through the park between 10 and 11 in the morning, and when you come upon Michael and his mistress, you'll be given a cheerful welcome. Death Thurs.
