DOGGONE BAD”
Buster Keaton, who is the proud owner of a Belgian police dog — worth some two thousand dollars in hard earned American money — has demoted his canine. No longer is the dog called by his given name, “Captain.” There’s a story connected with this, and here it is:
Recently Buster lost the dog. He advertised and offered a reward of one hundred dollars for its return. A civilian, noticing the ad and finding the canine in his' backyard, ’phoned the comedian and told him of his “find.’' Buster was quick in responding and after paying the reward returned with “Captain” to his studio.
Addressing his pet, he wails: “I am about to demote you for your conduct. From now on you’re not to be called ‘Captain.’ It’s ‘Lieutenant.’ ”
That’s cruel, but as Buster puts it, we must have obedience, even among canines.

The “SCANDAL”
— It would seem untrue that one style in particular should have the ability, in loveliness and delicacy, to out-step any or many of the little models designed and made by I. Miller.
— However, the “Scandal” here sketched is a successful captain. It has an odd and artistic forepart, three graceful straps and dainty perforations. Something to be seen and thought about. Patent Leather only.
