Reflects the Ciay Modes
of Spring
Not in many years
certainly not lately have
the styles for a Spring
season been so attrac-
tive, fascinating and di-
versified as they are this
year.
As the season advan-
ces, the established
modes take interesting
new turns, each vicing
with each other until it
seems there is no end to
variety.

No Stunt too Difficult
For Canine Star
It’* not such a very unusual thing
for a police dog to he well trained,
lheie are countless welltrained dogs
who are versed in numerous tricks.
It's in the breed. But to have a dog
trained to the point where he will
couragei u-ly undertake really diffi-
cult and dangerous stunt , (and those
stunts not a matter of daily train-
in routine) is a very different propo-
sition.
However, that’s the kind of a dog
you'll find in Eandow, heralded as
“th? world's greatest deg,” and the
four-footed heio of “Code of the
Northwest,” the smashing Associated
Exhibitors’ picture which comes to
