| A nursery school teacher was delivering a station wagon |
| Full of kids home, one day when a fire truck zoomed past |
| Sitting in the front seat of the fire truck was a Dalmatian dog. |
| The children began discussing the dog's duties. |
| "They use him to keep crowds back," said one youngster. |
| "No" said another, "He's just for good luck." |
| A third child brought the argument to a close. "They use the dogs," |
| She said firmly, "To find the fire hydrants." |
