1 Dog, Cat, Cow, Man,
Police and Doctor a
Part of This Tale
Portland.—Rivaling the fable about
“The House That Jack Built,’’ a nurs
ery tale of real life was enacted in
Portland Wednesday.
It is about the cop that arrested the
Jap that owned the dog that chased
the cat and bit the cow that-kicked the
man and broke the arm that held the
pail that spilled the milk. And the
cop called the doctor, who called the
ambulance, and the humane society of
ficials who called the veterinary.
And the dog was tied up at the house
that the Jap lived in.
Joe Niemy, No.t243 Hiollaciay street,
was milking his cow in the morning in
his barn, near which K. Kasaoka, No..
2 3i Adams street, kept his automobile
Kasaoka, with his white bull dog, was
gm og'to his garage when .the dog spied
a cat and chased it.
The cat led the chase near the
N iemy’s cow, and when, the dog saw
t he cat was going to get away, it bit
th9 .cow.Instead, eecording to police
•accounts.T The eow-k-icked Niemy and
broke his right arm.
Patrol man. Ingle was sent on the call,
fie notified the .emergency hospital
physician and the humane society. A
i veterinarian was called to care for the
cow, and Niemy was-sent to the Good
Samaritan hospital.
Kasaoka was arrested for permitting
i a vicious dog to run at large.

Good Highways the
Cause of Diverting
People From Churches
Portland.—Good roads have increased
the rural church problem, instead of
making it easier for the country
preacher to get his members to attend
church, said the Rev. E. R. Martin,
superintendent of the udper coast dis
trict of the American Sunday School
Union, at the second annual Northwest
Community Church conference, Tues
day.
Martin said that before the inroad of
the railroad, automobile and good
roads each small community had its
church, but of late years those inter
ested in church work have flocked to
the nearest city and thus left the rural
districts without church leadership.
He cautioned the churches not to
overlook the country districts, pointing
to statistics which show that 85 per
cent of the nation’s leadership is fur
nished by the country.
The speaker told his hearers that
58,000,000 people in America were not
connected with any church organiza
tion of any denomination. In Linn
county, Ore., where there are one hun
dred school districts, American Sunday
school missionaries have found 28 aban
doned country churches, Rev. Martin
said, and in Lane county, with 120
school eistricts, 24 abandoned churches
were located.
"Our country districts have -suffered
most aDd are largely unchurched, and
3,000 rural school districts in Oregon,
Washington and Idaho are without
Sunday schools,” the speaker said.
‘•Do you think a man’s wife ought to
go to his office?” Pitman was asked.
"Certainly not,” replied Pitman. "I
would just as soon think of taking my
stenographer home with me.”—Ex.
