PET DOGS OF JAPANESE
GET OCCIDENTAL NAMES
Custom Shows Progress of For
eign Languages in Nippon

1t would not have occurred to many
nersons to think of estimating the
progress of foreign language in Japan
by investigating the names given to
dogs. But that bright idea suggested
itself to the Koishikawa police. In pur-
snance of their duties with regard to
the registration of dogs they recently
entered the names of 160 belonging to
the inhabitants of that quarter of the
CITY of Tokyo, says the Chicago News
They found that every one of the $50
had what the japanese call a butter
smelling, name; that is to say, a name
evidently of foreign origin. There were
no less than II "Johnnies'' among the
mack. as we'll as several Jocks" The
old familiar Japanese names-''Taro,.
"Jiro," and the like-were conspicuous
by their absence.
A Tokyo journal regards this as a sign
of the times. Like the singing and
whistling of occidental tunes which are
heard so much in Tokyo nowadays, the
selection of occidental names for pets
in Japanese families is not without sig
nificance.

HAMILTON CHASES
BIRDS IN The AIR
Daredevil Aviator Performs in
New Biplane in Remarkable
Manner at Sacramento
[ Special Dispatch TO The Call

SACRAMENTO, Sept 25.-Soaring
around the Agricultural park more
like huge bird than human,
Charles K. Hamilton today made his
new biplane, the Hamilton, obey
every movement he asked in three OF
the prettiest flights the birdman has
made in Sacramento After executing
most OF the maneuvers usually diff
hcult to most ayiators Hamilton
started on daredevil chase after a
flock OF blackbirds that passed over
the stands
Hamilton spent nine minutes in the
air on his first ascent and in that
period covered eight miles, counting
the time lost in getting away and
coasting to the ground on the return.
He sailed far over the houses in Oak
park and east Sacramento and went
at last as far as Brighton. He came to
earth directly in front of the stands
with the ease of an autosist stopping
his car.
1t was on his second trip skyward
that the aviator executed some fancy
maneuvers. Taking a position far to
the north he went gliding over the
track in sensational series of dips.
the big machine looking like bobbing
cork on the waves as it passed in
front of the cheering crowd. Spying
his wife seated in a private box Hamil-
ton took one hand from the wheel and
waved to her and the crowd got up
and shouted.
Hamilton will leave tomorrow for
Chicago to compete in an aviation
meet there on October 8. Following
this meet he will install his 90 horse
power motor in his biplane and race
from Chicago to New York with
Claude Graham White for a $4,000
purse.
