Lost Dog Seeks
Good Home
By LIZ HUME

A reader of our column, Mrs.
B. E. Cole, 4314 Alabama Ave.
S. E., writes:
Several weeks ago a female
police German shepherd dog
came to our house. We have
tried unsucceSsfully to locate
the owner and now we are not
able to keep the dog.
"She is so very nice, however,
that we dread the idea of send
ing her to the pound and we
were wondering if you might
not be able to find a home for
her.
"She is marvellous dog with
children"
1t may be that Mrs. Cole will
be able to find a home for the
stranger among our readers.
Reinsurance
1t does seem pity that so
nice dog is going to waste.
Especially when there are so
many people who would just
love to have her.
incidentally (this is to reas-
sure Mrs. Cole) sending her to
the pound will not mean neces-
sarily that she is put to death.
The pound master, w. R.
Smith, never condemns a dog
to the lethal chamber unless he
is very sure that it hasn't the
ghost of a chance of finding a
kind owner.
Many Requests
And he has so many requests
for good dogs that it is seldom
that he has to reach this con-
clusion. He really is nice per-
son. this Mr.. Smith, and being
sent to the pound isn't as tragic
a fate for dog as it sounds.
OF course, the very word
pound-has an ominous sound
to all dog lovers. But the Dis
trict pound doesn't deserve be-
ing classed with the horrible
places they used to send un-
wanted and unloved dogs.

Advice to the
LOVe|Orn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Job Has Turned His Head

Job Has Turned His Head
Dear Miss Fairfax:
When we were first married
my husband had a very small
salary. so my people took us in.
and we lived with them. He
never paid them any board, and
his people never offered to help
out.
He lost that job and went
to work. Then his brother came
to live with us and I ran the
home, as my husband at that
time was not working.
Now he has one of those
alphabetical jobs under the
Government and it seems to
have turned his head COM
pletely. He's out late, and comes
home with rouge and lipstick
on his shirt and collar. Also,
he has been drinking more
than is good for him-still, I
never nag him.
After he got his alphabetical
job, he insisted that l stop
working; now he tells me to go
back to work again. But you
know how hard it is to get en-
ployment these days.
How can l trace this lipstick
and rouge evidence to find cut
if there is another woman? He's
IS and I'm three years younger.
LONELY WIFE.
Dear Lonely Wife:
My advice to you may seem
old-fashioned. but it is to sit
tight. The glamour of his alpha
betical job may pass; also. he
may lose it. They're not life ap-
pointments.
In your letter, which was
much too long to print, you tell
me you love your husband de-
votedly. AS he's only Is years
of age and tasting the life of
the National Capital for the
first time, try to have a little
maternal patience with him and
wait to see if he won't come to
his senses.

No encouragement
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Five years ago, at a friends
birthday party, 1 was intro
duced to a young man I have
loved ever since. We have been
going together, but he has never
spoken a v-ord of encourage
ment.
Someone told me that when
there have been two marriages
in a family, third is likely to
follow. we've had these two
marriages. What do you think
of my chances? JAMIE.
There is an old proverb about
things going in threes; still, I
wouldn't put too much faith in
that. If you've known the
young man for five years and
he has never spoken a word of
encouragement. don't you think
it a little risky to waste any
more of your precious youth
hoping for him to come across?

November

November
The Earth a brown ball, whirl-

Beneath a guSty sky,
With dead leaves downward
swirling
Where other dead leaves lie.
The chill air blurred and haZy
With dust of many a rose
And marigold and daisy
From many a garden close.
High clouds by wild winds
driven,
Fierce, sudden squalls of rain,
And not one token given
That life will come again.
The Earth a brown ball, swing
ing
Through windy realms Of space
And not one glad bird singing
The muted music only
Of withered leaves and Sere;

Along a barren sphere.
Upon its barren face.

Brings Sheen
Dear Miss Shelby:
What do you advise putting
in the rinsing water after a
shampoo to bring out the lights
of the hair? Do you recon-
mend a pomade to keep the
hair in place? Sincerely,
G. M.
Dear Mrs. G. M:
Vinegar and lemon are both
good if put in the rinsing water
after a shampoo. They will
bring out the high lights and
give a beautiful sheen to your
hair.
I would not advise putting a
pomade on your beautiful hair
to keep it in place. If you have
an occasional finger wave to
start training it, you will find
that in a very short time you
can train your hair to just the
way you wish to wear 1t.
