Big Dam Pushed
in Renewed Vieor

The severe cold that swept this
part of the country the past week
caused temporary suspension of
some operations on the Fort Peck
project, it was stated at the dis
trict office of the army engineers.
Sub.zero temperatures, which

SO degrees at 2 J.. m, Jan. FL.

lied to overhaul equipment so it
would be in readiness to resume
operations as 500 as the weather
mOderates sufficiently.

rolls, employment figures for Jan.

have delayed progress on outside
operations, excavation of the pilot
tunnels continues at the same stea-
dy pace. Up to 8 a.. m. Jan. 81
total of 11,705 lineal feet of pilot
tunnel had been completed. Pour
ing of concrete for headwalls at
the downstream portals, however,
has been suspended. Structural
steel for the lower portal structures
has been shipped and, with the
four euyed derricks ready to oper-
ate, opencut excavation will be
ready to commence as soon as the
weather permits.
AS soon as operations can be re.

4 T THIS time of the year particu-
\ larly dogs seem to be afflicted
with more skin troubles than at any
other. This is doubtlessly due to the
natural irritation caused by shedding
the old coat and to dietary disorders
left from the heavier rations fed dur
ing the Winter.
In hot weather dog needs less food
and of a lighter character. While
meat should still be the basis of his
diet, he needs less of it and can derive
more benefit from the so-called filters

To aid the process of hair shedding,
1t is we'll to comb the dog thoroughly
for several days with as fine a steel
comb as will go through his hair.
Long-haired dogs should not be clip
ped. When the dead hair and under
coat are removed by careful combing,
the long guard hairs form a very
effective insulating material against
the suns rays and really keep the
dog from feel the heat as much as he
otherwise would.
Wire-haired dogs should be plucked
and trimmed in preparation for the
Summers activities. BY Fall, the
wire-haired dog should have a coyt
that with little attention could stand

big 3" Under Way.

THE City of Washington tournament
which opened yesterday is the
first of the Capitals Big 3" annual
classics. The District OF Columbia
championships take place in a fort
night, starting June IS, and, month
later, July 20, sees the beginning Of
the public parks tourney.
Only one player ever has success
fully captured the championship Of
all three tournaments in the same
year. In 1888, Dooley Mitchell
reached deep into his bag of tricks
and produced three titles, capturing
the championship OF each tourna-
ment. No player ever before had done
it and no one has duplicated the feat
in the past two years. incidentally,
that was the only year that Dooley
ever won the District of Columbia
title.
Perhaps II Duke University had
closed a little earlier last year and
Barney Welsh had been in town, there
today would be co-claimant for
Mitchell's honor. Barney won the
other two big local tournaments last
year, but school books prevented him
from being here to attempt the grand
slam.
