Jimmy Hobbs, S, Third grade pupil

condition to be serious.
The dog belongs to Frank. Vaccito,

Roll Down Rank.
Jimmy lives at the Creche home.
Tuesday morning he was playing at
the top of a high bank across from
the school when the dog leaped at
him, its jaws shopping.
His screams attracted two other
school boys, Joe Canlglia, 514 Wool
worth avenue, and Louis Turco, 420
Pierce street. They thought at first
that Jimmy was playing with the
dog, they said. It was leaping about
him, and ho was running this way
and that, with his arm over his face.
Then the dog seemed to fasten it
self to the boy’g neck, they said, and
both boy and dog rolled down the
^ bank.
They ran toward the spot, waving
their arms and the dog fled.
Owner Arrested.
Vaccito, whf» was arrested on a
charge of harboring a vicious animal,

and that It never bothered anyone so

The Economy BAKING POWDER
Today millions upon millions have real

perfect baking powder.
Calumet has more friends than any of
the other brands on the market today women
who after one trial found that for uniform, wholesome
bakings it has no equal.
Don’t forget that a few cents worth of
unreliable baking powder can ruin several dollars
worth of other ingredients used in baking. Use
the best and know what the results will be.
