TO Tl-IE FACULTY 'Tis pleasing to be schooled By female lips and eyes -- that is, I mean, When both the teacher and the taught are young, As was the case, at least, where I have been, They smile so when one's right, and when one's wrong They smile still more. l46l Byron

His tail is his flag of truce because it is short and stubby with long, wavy, white hair hanging down from the end of it. He waves this back and forth pleadingly when I am going to punish him for being naughty. Speaking of being naughty, he often finds a fascinating hole to dig in and when I call him he pretends to be deaf and if I shout and stamp my foot he jumps and looks innocently up between his paws and waves the flag of truce. Very coy I call it. Since he has been digging in a hole he is very dirty so I give him a bath, and what a job that is! He sits in the water with his nose pointed straight up in the air and his brown eyes roll from side to side to watch every move I make. If I try to reassure him that everything is all right, he pokes out his long tongue and licks my hand. Drying him is still harder because he has decided that it is time to be playful. He dashes at the towel and gets all wound up in it until only his little black button nose is sticking out. This is all very well but there is the problem of unwinding him, so I grab one end of the towel and he the other and after he has unwound himself we have a tug of war. This is usually repeated and repeated until he is all dry and we both are too exhausted to move. When we have both rested a bit, Boto dives under the bed which is quite low and scratches his back by rubbing it back and forth on the bottom of the bed. He shows how much he loves this by giving little grunts and snorts of delight. Boto's ears are so long that they get in his food so I pin them back with a bobbie pin while he eats. He does not realize how funny he looks or he would be too insulted to eat, because he is a proud little dog. Once I made the big mistake of trying to teach him to sit up, but every time I had him nicely propped up he would become just like jelly and crumble into a heap on the floor. I was so disgusted that I stopped trying to teach him. The next day when I was eating he came to me as nicely as you please, and begged for some ice cream, which is his favorite dish besides meat. The little rascal! At night when I go to bed he lies at the foot of my bed and falls asleep at peace with the world. oggngl- .
