ALL DOGS ALIKE.
SAYS ATTORNEY
A. Leftwich Sinclair Says
That Puppies Must Be
Tagged, Too.

Tagless puppies are as much liable
to arrest as are the CID dogs which for
years have eluded the nets of the dog
catchers.
That fact firmly is established in law
by an opinion handed down in 1904 by
Assistant Corporation Counsel A. Left
witch Sinclair, although there is a pre-
vailing impression among dog owners
that puppies which have not reached
the age of six months are exempt from
the tax of s. a year. The question has
again arisen following The impOunding
Of a number OF puppies, whose owners
in separating from s. for their release,
have informed POundmaster Einstetn OF
their belief that a license was not re-
quired for a dog less II IN six months
old.
The pOundmaster wants the public to
disiilusion itself on this point 1t is pro-
vided by an act Of Congress Of June
49, 1875 that 1.-The poundmaster of the
District of Columbia shall, during the
entire year, seize all dogs running at
large without the tax-tag."
THAT this law was intended to apply
to all dogs. irrespective Of age, Is clear
to my mind" says NJ Sinclair. Il am
Of the opinion, therefore, that the
pOundmaster is without authority to re-
lease any dog impounded by him be-
cause of its age, unless, aH7 until, the
pound fee of s. is duly paid by the
owner Of the dog

cans. freely INDUCED in by Europeans

matters. and lack training and taste III
such things. is no longer deserved
The Bureau Of Education has been
looking into this subject, and has issued
a bulletin by Henry Turner Bailey on
instruction IN the fine and manual aIIs
in the United States. Mr. Balleys IN
formation is largely statistical he
finds. however, in a rough way that
the annual expenditure for ar instruc-
ton in the United States amounts TO
81. 1924. He says this measures only
in mart the interest OF the people Of
the United States IN the subject Of art
instruction, and that the interest is
widespread and rapidly increasing.
.aTbe history Of art instruction IN
France. Germany and England says
Mr.. Bailey, furnishes ample data for
predicting that in the near future the
relation Of art to industries and 70
national welfare will be so keenly ap-
preciated by all our people that they
viii make more liberal appropriations
for all effective agencies for furthering
art instruction in the United States
Cities Pay s4,52o,IsI.
The largest outlay for art instruction
in the United States is made by munich
palities. II is calculated by Mr.. Bailey
AZ s4590lN. For instruction in private
schools. academies. and colleges there
Is expended $4,000 annually, and the
same sum for instruction in private
schools Of fine and applied art. mill
lion dollars are spent for subscriptions
10 art educational periodicals., and half
a million in summer art schools. School
room decorations cost $4,000 annually.
The Federal Government does not con-
tribute much, the total being $4,000.
The States expend every year 100000.
The movement for better art instruc-
ton IN the United states, Mr.. Bailey
observes. Is Of less 'han forty years
standing. Originating q generation ago
in the minds OF few far-seeing men,
il has made wide conquests of cities
though It has not yet achieved leBisla-
tive victories in even a majority Of the
states. and its influence on the Federal
Government as such is still hardly per
/ cepuble. Dir. Bailey points out that the
movement for art instruction in she
United States originated with the people

/ inherent virtue. First local IN its ia

these was by Lester =. Moore, IT.,
chairman Of the subcommittee on sec
ond prizes. A long list CT prizes,
ranging in variety from lubrcating oil
to automobile sweaters and coats was
read, the donors principally being auto
mobile firms in a number of large cities.
T 3. Spence made report about
the feature of entries. TIE entry list
he said, is being added to daily, and
three new applications for places IN
the parade we've received yesterday.
Chairman George Gall, of the commit
tee on TRANSFORMATION, said that meet
ing of his committee, which is largely
composed Of railway officials, VIII De

FIRST things to be considered by the conf
mfttee will be that of securing reduced
rates over thu railway Ines leading
into Washington on the day Of the pa
rade. After his it VIII take up the

Decorate With Flags.
Commissioner Macfar9and made a
suggestion which bids fair to be in
corporated in the plans for the parade.
This was with respect to having sec
ton devoted to cars draped only with
American flags The Commissioner 8
idea is that the cars entering this sec
ton should be so drapod as to allow
the flags to fly free. Several members of
the committee expressed themselves as
being In favor of the suggestion.

William D. West. president of the

works Of art and hsndicraft OF meal
cuIabIe value IN the development Of
public taste.
That the states are forging ahead in
this matter IS shown from the fact that
by means Of instruction In State normal
schools, in State and county institutes
and in other ways forty-three States are
actively interested in the subject of bet
ter education. Massachusetts and New
York are the leaders. They employ
State Supervisors Of art instruction at
yearly outlay of 5000 each. These men
are well trained. ripened by experience.
and employed as agents to promote arr
instruction within the respective com
monwealths They visit the cities and
towns, inspect schools. discuss methods,
suggest courses OF study, supervise in
struction In drawing and handicraft in
normal schools, gather information rela-
tive to their speciality, and publish an
nual reports under the direction of State
boards Of education. Mr.. Bailey says
no more efficient means of advancing
sound art instruction in the public
schools has yet been discovered.
Movement Is Important.
The movement for schoolroom deco
ration Is an important part OF the gen
eral movement for better art instruc-
ton. This began in Massachusetts in
1870 with Charles c. Perkins and John
Phlbrlck, but attracted little. IL any.
public attention until 1892 when Ross
Turner, "the father Of schoolroom
decoration" began his campaign Of edu-
cation, the movement rapidly spreading
throughout almost the entire country.
It has been the work largely of teach
ers and supervisors Of drawing, assisted
by private citizens and school children.
OF the thousands of dollars expended
for photographs, casts and other re-
productions and works of art for school
room decoration in the past twenty-five
years. probably less than 5 per cent
has come from public funds.
The money has been raised by means
Of private subscriptions exhibitions.
fairs, s0cials, entertainments, calendars
designed and made by school children
and sold from house 10 house, and many
other devices such as only ingenuity
backed by enthusiasm could invent.
MI Bailey calls attention also TO the
increasing number Of art museums and
societies. These have been steadily
growing in the last forty years Three
hundred and sixty-nine well organized
bodies, 80 IS shown by Mr.. Bailey's
figures, are instrumental In promoting
the public taste.
