"The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world is his dog.... He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer. He will lick the wounds that come in encounter with the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert he remains, and when death takes the master in his embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by his graveside will his dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even to death."From Senator Vest's Euology of the Dog.

The pencil portrait is by artist Burbank of the dog which saved many lives at a bathing resort on the Atlantic Coast."
