afforded the pets whose owners are

maintaining it will be considerable. A
matron and our assistants will look
after the ordinary needs of members
and a veterinary surgeon will call
twice each day to provide such medical
attendance as may be necessary.
Lapdogs will be permitted to lounge
in the library and smoking rooms
while the larger breeds will be accom-
mOdated In Il suite of rooms equipped
with cushioned stalls and brass fit
t1ngs. Uniformed attendants will meet
the dogs at the door and conduct them
