trained several months in New

nancy when. they are not physi-
cally fit for motherhood. We
are asking contributions to In
crease the number Of clinic Ses-
Sions to broaden the scope OF
our work, and purchase supplies
for those who cannot pay. A
large majority of the women
who come to us from families
where the husband is unem
ployed and cannot pay for either
service or supplies"

quarters in July Of last year in
a small house at IT'S E st. S. w.

postponed until late in the pro- gress of the work. In this in- stance, for the Nome Federal Building, it was as courtesy to the Honorable Anthony J. Dim ond, delegate to congress from Alaska, to set the date for the cornerstone laying which would make it possible for him to par ticipate in the ceremonies. It was through his cooperation in Con- gress that the appropriation was made for the building and due to the pressure of public business in Washington he was unable to visit Nome at any earlier date this summer.
 The present stage of construc- ton, although farther advanced than normally would be the case at tbe time of laying the corner stone, will not permit of public inspection of the building. It will therefore be closed, for the ceremonies. to protect the pro- perty of the contractors and to save injury to any parsons. At the time tha.. the building is com plated there will undoubtedly be a formal dedication and upon Isuch an occasion it is customary Do open the building for public inspection.

Don't forget the dance tomor- row night. There'u be a hot time in the Odd Fellows hall, Satur- day night, for the bi-monthly dance, which promises to surpass the record for fun set by the pre- vious ones.

before a crowd of about 500 persons.
Riders, horses and spectators braved

end of an industriously managed
meet all agreed that the game had
been worth the candle.
Especially gratifying to those who
like to see honors spread about
amongst the competitors, rather than
heaped upon a single stable, was the
fact that almost every good hunter
on the grounds came in for portion

Bargains" Are Exposed.

The following pronouncement from
the offices Of the American Kennel
Club is the first official recognition of
a widespread evil which threatens not
only the raising of pure bred dogs as
business but also as a sport. Too
many bona fide breeders bear the brunt
OF displeasure of the dog buying public
which objects to getting stung too
often
When dog lovers pay reasonably
good prices for dogs they are not vast
ing their money. This subject was dis
cussed at recent press conference in
the offices of the American Kennel
Club. The matter came up due to re-
ports that the unscrupulous. roadside
venders were starting a big spring
campaign on bargain puppies. Scour-
ing the countryside for mongrel litters
and even unwanted. pure-bred dogs,
these hawkers count their profits on
a big turnover. Often they sell puppies
for as little as 81. The purchaser gets
just about a dollars worth.
Many of the sickly puppies find
their way into the hands of the less
reputable pet shops. These dogs are
sold at prices ranging up to $40, for
which sum the seller will offer to pro-
vide papers" which purport to be the

Trouble Is Scented.

The National Capital Kennel Club
recently has been incorporated. How
ever. it was not incorporated under
the laws of the District of Columbia
where supposedly it operates, even
though large proportion of its men,
bers and officers reside in Maryland
1t was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Maryland That leaves
a nice question open for future an
swering. Can another organization
give licensed shows in the District
Could the old National Capital Ken
mel Club. Inc. which was incorporated
in the District, be revived? Which
club would have jurisdiction then?
These sound like rhetorical questions,
but after years of experience with
kennel clubs, it has been discovered
that all rhetorical questions. sooner Oh
later, and generally. sooner, become
practical questions and demand i'm
mediate answers.
