down on the ground. The hind feet

DOGGE DOINGS
By M. D. DENLINGER
THE AFGHAN HOUND
"He KmeaO The .SphiMG"

Mr.. C. B. Harbinson once wrote
in Vanity Fair of the Afghan
Hound in "He Knew the Sphinx"
Also if you happen to be a daugh-
ter of hundred earls or yearn to
look like one, nothing in the dog
line would be better for you than an
Afghan Hound. His ancestry is SO
much superior to oyurs that you
should wear the collar.
Mr.. Milton DAIMLER writes:
IAN ancient papyrus indicates
that the breed came from the Sinia
Mountains. According to Major
Blackstone, the Afghan Hound was
the, only known dog of the ancient
world, and throughout the ages it
had preserved its true type, its top
knot hip bones and the remarkable
action which is that of the monkey,
and different from any other dog.
The ideal Afghan is 81 inches
high Clutches 25), weighing about
60 pounds with strong, powerful
loin, slightly arched and falling away
toward the stern, we'll ribbed and
tucked up under loins. The body is
that of hound with ample length.
The tail set not too high on the
body, similar to the Greyhound, hav-
ing a curve at the end, but in no
account bushy tail. The brisket
is deep and not too narrow and the
hind quarters powerful, well mus
cled with great length between the
hip and hook. This is one Of the
main features of the Afghan, well
bent in stifle.
The forelegs are straight and
strong with great length between
elbow and ankle, elbows well tucked

Mules Do Not Like Change

Mules don't like change. If trained
to do something a certain way they
always want to do it that way.
says a writer in the Washington
Post. Pack mules, for example,
have their eyes covered with blink
ers during training. Years later,
when being loaded, the animals still
insist on having binders put on
their heads. Nor do mules like
strangers. Once a new man en-
tered stable Of $50 mules. All
$50 poked heads out Of their stalls
at the same time to- give him the
once over. Old stable hands had
to assure the stranger there wasn't

B SO brings five new locals into

Council and makes unified action
possible now not only of the crafts
which have supplied the member
ship of the council but of the vari-
Gus forms of necessary building
construction man-power hitherto,
and still technically, classified as
labor.
Through action taken at the last
convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, broadening the
scope of the building trades, it is
now possible to include in the
ranks of the strongly organized
union building trades bodies all
those engaged in building and
construction.
Hitherto the recognized building
trades union had been able to in
Iclude only those engaged in build
Iings and bridges"
Now street workers, truck driv-
ers, and others whose classified
ton has been set down as Labor
ers" are able to organize and join
forces with craftsmen.
The number of organized work
ers in the District thus has been
augmented by approximately 1000
in one move. This brings the total
to about $4,000 and this number
is expected to increase materially
before the seasonal building squirt
is under way.
