Both boys are on a par as to skill in throwing the shoes and they should make a very formidable entry to represent the Green. The pet show was a big success. The pets were right there and it was very hard to judge them. After much deliberation a plain every day "hound" owned by Donald Miller was given 'first place. \Vhat an intelligent hound though! Nobody was disappointed. Lucile Krause had a jet black cat which won second place, and Walter Baron's white dog of no special breed won third place. The aristocrats do not rate.
