Timely Pet Items
About Dogs
Mostly
BY LIZ HUME

The cunning little wire
haired terrier ratified off at
Ma" Williams famous block
party, is now being led around
very gaily by Mrs. H. o. Stone,
who had the luck to draw the
right number.
**&
The Page Huftys have one
Of the most beautiful police
dogs around here. He guards
their charming little house in
Rock creek Park. This dog
is most unusual in his mark
ings. He is black and the most
delicate shade of fawn. Very
affectionate with members Of
the family, he has no time for
strangers.
II Mrs. Robert Everett Clark
will kindly send me q clearer
picture Of her fine looking cat,
Nick" I will be glad to put it
in the paper.
I am distressed to learn from
little Teddy White that his
beautiful English bulldog, Big
Boy, whose picture has already
been published in this column,
has disappeared. Teddy is al
most heartbroken over the loss
of his pet, a member of his
family has told me. Big Boy
had a collar and a tag on. The
tag number is 16345. I GER
tainly wish for Teddy's sake
that the person who has Big
Boy would return him to his
owner. If you know anything
about this dog, get in touch
with M. j. White, 1929 Third
st. N. E.
I have received a letter from
a man who wonders what to
do about his fine collie who
has the bad habit of eating
chicken bones which he finds
in the neighborhood. Of course,
we know that this man can't
keep his neighbors from throw
ing the bones out where the
dog can get them, so we Sug-
gest the following as a solution
of his problem:
Tie the dog UP for several
days and place beside him a
pan full of chicken bones
which have been sprinkled with
enough Black Leaf Forty to
spoil his desire for this deli
cacy. Be sure not to put so
much Black Leaf on the bones
mat it destroys the chicken
smell. The idea is to tempt
the dog-and then thwart him.
If you have a good picture
Of your pet, Liz Hume invites
you to send it in for use i'm this
column. No pictures returned.
1t is also very probable that
some of your experiences would
be of interest and value to
other owners Of pets. Address

leaves I have pledged my un-
dying loyalty. There is moth.
ing more disagreeable than to
use a remnant of soap in pub
lie Mushroom, or to keep a bar
of soap rolled in a towel for
personal use in the office.
And, incidentally, if you
would like to please yo' man,
buy him a booklet of talcum
leaves for use after shaving.
He'll appreciate them when he
travels, but will probably con.
tinue to snitch your talcum
when he is around home.
This whole paper family for
a modest price. If you want to
be one of the first in reviving
a fascinating fad, you will get a
set today.

a properly balanced diet is es-
sential to our mental and
physical well-being, and this
may be obtained at q mini
mum cost financially.
For instance, a dinner can
be planned which will prove
healthily satisfying for four
people, that actually costs ap-
proximately II cents-roughly
less than IS cents per person!
These are, of course adults

penSe by extra milk, and some

Advice to the LoveIorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Written Exclusively for The Washington Times

long ago he failed to show up
to keep his last engagement
with her. The reason for this
was probably because of some
thing the girl said which he
didn't like. She didn't mean a
thing by it, but he took it in
the wrong way.
Don't you think the boy
should have called her up and
told her that he couldn't keep
the date, or something to that
effect, and not have kept her
waiting? The girl likes the
young man very much, and
she can't see why such a
little misunderstanding should
keep them apart. What could
be done about it?
A READER.
Even if the young man was
provoked by something the girl
said, it was highly discourteous
of him not to keep an engage
ment, or send her an excuse.
It seems to me they are about

is concerned,

WORKERS HAIL
FURLOUGH BAN

Postal employees rejoiced today
over Postmaster General Farley's
order Of yesterday which ended
payless furloughs.
Falling in step with the re-
covery parade, the Postmaster
General issued instructions to all
postmasterS to stop payless fur
loughs and restore normal service
May /. This rescinds an earlier
order, issued March 2, which made
mandatory three and four-day fur.
loughs without pay for all postal
employees before June 80, re-
Stricted allowances for substitutes
and reduced delivery service.
The order issued yesterday
means early relief to thousands of
postal substitutes, most of whom
were reduced to actual want by
the economy measures.
Effective May l, mail deliveries
in residential sections of cities
will be increased from one to two
daily; in business districts from
three to four daily, and longer
hours for window service will be
restored.

CHILD PIANIST
WINS ACCLAIM
At CONCERT
By RONALD THORNE

Little Margot RoS, Cuban
child pianist, was the outstand-
ing feature Of the concert given
at the Pan-American Union Satur-
day night by the United Service
Orchestra. She was making her
first appearance before a large
audience, and was possibly a bit
nervous, but she played admirably,
revealing technique and artistry
hardly to be expected in a child
Of her years.
She is a student at the Curtis
Institute, and many prominent
musicians are Of the opinion that
she will attain great heights as a
pianist. She Is an attractive child,
serious in manner, without the at.
fectatlons and manneriSmS that
are sometimes so evident in child
artists.
Short Compositions
The compositions she played
were all brief, and most Of rem
by Cuban composers. In her Sec
ond appearance, when the pro-
gram was being broadcast to
Latin-America as well as through
out the United States. she played
the waltz, "A Basket of Flowers '
by Teresa Carreno, a Venezuelan
composer.
The concert was given in honor
of Pan-American Day, and was
part of a program which also in
cluded an address by Secretary
of State Cordell Hull in which
he discussed the increasingly
pleasant relations between this
country and its neighbors to the
south.
Eduardo Case, prominent as a
radio tenor, appeared on the con-
cert program with little Senorita
Ros, and was heard to excellent
advantage in several numbers.
notably the familiar "Siboney,"
by the prominent Cuban com
poser, ErneSta Lecuona.
New Work Played
The orchestral part Of the pro
gram was marked by the first
rendition Of "An Appeal to the
Great Spirit" by Major r.. j.
Hernandez, a work majestic in
conception and brilliant in execu.
ton, and by the first orchestral
rendition Of the novelty "Quenas, -
by L. D. Lavalle.
"Quenas," employing the ma
tive flutes of Peru for solo
passages, has been played here
by service bands, but is much
more effective as an orchestral
number. It was the only work
of the evening, apart from the
composition by Major Herman.
dez, which revealed the modern.
ist tendencies shown in so many
works by Latin-American COM
poSerS.
