This Week’s Cover
- This week’s cover by Albert Staehle, as, of course, you’ve recognized immediately, is your old friend, Butch. Butch is engrossed in the task—call it a pleasant task if you like—of lapping up a helping of milk. Philosophers from ancient times on have pondered the question of why puppies lap up milk in just the way they do. The philosophers have got nowhere to speak of, but puppies grow into big dogs. That’s what happened to Butch. The original Butch outgrew his baby face and had to be retired as a model. The Butch you now see is the same Butch as always, of course, but the model is younger. He comes from the same kennels and parents as the old Butch. You want to know how he got the clothespins on his ear? Mr. Staehle put it there—and held it in place with one hand while he painted with the other. Artists earn their pay.
