It was Scout, the new caninelord of the executive mansion grounds, a rangypolice-dog who is the particular pet of the Millerchildren. Only once would Scout consent to posefor his picture, and then his mind was somewhereelse, for his eyes were not on the lens, but faraway. This posing does bore one!

Commencement time is a good time to take alook back
