For those of you seeking that final puzzle piece, consider a dog. "He is your friend, your partner, your de- fender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart…" I do not know who orig- inally said this, but I do not think anyone who has had a dog will argue with it. Long, truly commit- ted relationships be- tween humans are rare in this modern age, but who can dispute the loy- alty, the unwavering de- votion of a dog? The ex- amples are endless, one being a film titled "Ha- chi: A Dog's Tale." It is a story based on a real dog named Hachikō, and is about an Akita who greeted his owner at a train station every day. After the owner died, the dog returned to the station at the same time every day until he also died, nine years later. How nice it would be if everyone were as de- voted. Don't we all wish to be loved? To have someone devoted to us enough to be there when unwelcome circum- stances darken our door, and to warm us when the world turns cold. Unfortunately, some- times when real prob- lems emerge, those we thought were commit- ted fall far from the ex- pectation we hold. Dogs, on the other hand, stand by our side whether we are rich beyond measure or destitute and home- less. It makes no differ- ence, whether they are small or large. Where we go, they follow no matter the reason. They watch over us, ever vigilant in their safeguarding, even if it means the forfeit of their own life to protect us from harm. They do not weigh the odds, nor hesitate with questions. Dogs are the epitome of selflessness. There may be no ab- solute definition of what constitutes a friend. However, when we think of friendships, we think of traits like loyal, faithful, non-judgmen- tal, trustworthy, sup- portive, and enjoyable. A friend can calm us, make us laugh, and lift up our spirits during dif- ficult times. I would ven- ture to guess I have also just described the dogs with which we share our homes. I will also wager that our dogs are more accepting of all our faults than even our best friends are. Vincent Van Gogh is quoted as saying, "If you don't have a dog … at least one … there is not necessarily any- thing wrong with you, but there may be some- thing wrong with your life." Research has in- dicated that owning a pet can help us live longer, feel healthier, and aid us in dealing with various stressors in modern life. Because of pets, countless lives have PETS Meetashelter sweetheart this Valentine's Day "Today, probably rain." That is the way the local United States Weather Bureau official, Mr. Cun- ningham, sums up the prospects of a change in the elements for the com- ing 24 hours. The dry spell has lasted 36 days to date with only 10 inches of rain. This is somewhat a record breaker for the time of the year, according to Ob- server Cunningham. In January 1883, there were 26 days of dry, rainless weather after the rainy season was supposed to have set in. During this period there was a light shower in February. Af- ter this there was no in- dications of rain until March 25th. During the remainder of the month, however, the precipitation was heavier than usual, lasting through April and May. A rain is badly needed throughout this section, both by stockmen and farmers. — Feb. 11, 1917 100 YEARS AGO... Driest winter since 1883; predicts rain PLEASE RECYCLE THIS NEWSPAPER.
