Puppy's Property
Every puppy should have a bed
to come home to! Unless it is un
usually cold weather, even a
young puppy can sleep outdoors
in a. snug, well-built dog house. It
should have a well-fitted, pitched
roof and a raised floor to avoid
dampness. The door should be no
larger than necessary to allow a
grown dog to run in and out. An
Cold blanket, straw,
or cedar shavings
will serve as bed
ding.
If you want
your dog to sleep
indoors, he will be
less inclined to
take possession of
your living room
sofa if he has his
own bed. He will probably be sat
isfied with a dog bed, a bedded box
big enough for him to curl up in, or
a warm blanket placed on the floor.
Wherever his sleeping quarters
are, a puppy should be kept out of
drafts.
Your puppy should be ac
quainted with his bed as soon as
he arrives home. Place him in it
and let him stay there so that he
will learn it is “his” and gain a
sense of security from the fa
miliar. This will be easier if you
give him his first meal in his sleep
ing area. A “new arrival” may not
be hungry at first, so his meal
should have an especially enticing
aroma and flavor. An appetizing
food like Hunt Club Burgerbits
will soon develop his appetite and
satisfy his nutritional needs.
The first night at home a puppy
often cries from loneliness, but if
he has a warm blanket and is well
fed, he will eventually settle down.
A hot water bottle will help re
place the warmth of his litter
mates, and the ticking of a clock
may provide company.
Whether the puppy sleeps in
doors or out, he should, if possible,
have an outdoor run of his own
where he can amuse himself. Be
sure to place a few of his play
things and a handful of a dog
treat, such as Hunt Club Break
fast Biscuits, in the run with him.
The run doesn’t have to be large
but should be rectangular with a
strong wire fence at least four feet
high. The gate should be securely
latched with a hook that is not
likely to be unfastened by mis
chance.
Remember, your puppy is much
safer shut in his own yard than
being left loose to wander off your
property.
Chinese farmers are reported to
look into a cat’s eyes to tell when
it is noon. Even on cloudy days,
it is said, the pupils of a cat’s
eyes become slits when the sun is
directly overhead.
! Gov. Rosellini Asks for
i Senate Hearing on Truck
Mail Shipments to Alaska

Rosellini asked for a Senate hear
1 ing today into what he said was
[ a U. S. Post Office Department

request of U. S. Sen. Warren G.
Magnuson, Washington Democrat

Committee.

would lead to a curtailment in
1 service.
The governor said the firm

JFK to Make
Unusual Address
To Joint Session
WASHINGTON UR — President
Kennedy will address a joint ses
sion of Congress tomorrow “on
urgent national needs,” the White
House announced today.
In making the announcement,
assistant press secretary Andrew
T. Hatcher declined to say what
specific subjects Kennedy would
discuss.
Democratic congressional lead
ers said after their weekly meet
ings with the President yesterday,
however, that Kennedy would ask
for sharp increases in spending
for space, ground forces, civil de
fense and foreign aid, especially
for Southeast Asia.
There was indications that
among other things, Kennedy j
would ask congressional support
for a sharply increased program
of providing fallout shelters to j
protect civilians against sneak 1
nuclear attack.
Kennedy’s decision to appear
before Congress appeared to in
dicate that he places special im
portance on his requests.
It is rare for a President to
make such an address except at
the start of Congress, when he
delivers his State of the Union
message, or perhaps in time of
war.
