AT a recent conference between

Hobbies and H0bbWsts
News of Activities Here and Nearby
By Edmond Henderer.

Model aircraft, probably more
than any other hobby, attracts both
old and young. 1t seems the ideal
medium for father and son to get
together on a basis of mutual in
terest, and boys who start with
model planes often grow into the
men who design, build or fly the
big ones. Even those who don't turn
pleasant avocation into a voca-
ton often retain an interest in the
models, continue to build and fly
them and are the men behind the
model plane clubs which keep many
boys out of mischief.
One of this latter group is Will
liam j. Mayo. 1941 T place Sc.
Mr.. Mayo can't assign a date when
he became interested in airplanes.
He has just always been interested
in them" AS a boy he built scale
models of the aircraft Of that day.
Later he made some rubber-band
flying models
After he was married Mr.. Mayo
and his wife used to 60 riding on
Sunday afternoons and watch the
gas models fly. A chance remark
over the nice performance of one
of these inspired Mrs. Mayo to give
her husband a plane kit the follow
ing Christmas. He assembled this
and later bought motor for it.
He still has this first gas model,
which Is now about three and a
half years old. While flying it at
Silver Spring three weeks ago the
wind caught it, and it had a rather
bad crack-up. However, it's not
beyond repair, and he expects to
put it in shape to fly again.
Since the completion of his first
gas job Mr.. Mayo has built three
others. His first was a class A plane,
but he likes the larger class C
better. His planes have all been
built from kits, and he is not great
ly interested in designing his own
ships but would like to try building
motor.
Mr.. Mayo is equipping a small
shop in his basement and hopes
later to design and build a motor
for class c job. He Is a ma
chinist by trade and may be able
to improve present motor types.
All of Mr.. Mayo's planes are red,

would allow none of the other dogs
in the car to get any.
Alas, those hitch-hikers we're his
undoing. AS they disembarked at
the crossroads nearest his real
home, one of them stood with the
car door open while he said his

to the place he loved, recognizing
the corner from many trips TO that
neighborhood. Tommy dashed out
of the car and straight into the path

instantaneous. Tommy had come

Edgar A. Moss, Southern show su-
perintendent, has a real idea of
what a dog show should be. He
puts on a friendly, informal sort Of
match, largely run for the benefit
of the local exhibitors and with lit
tie commercial appeal. Cash prizes
are almost nil. A few sterling and
other trophies are offered by the
friends of various breeds No admis-
sion is charged to see the show or
for car parking. All expenses are
met by the entry fees, and most of
the championship points are carried
off by local dogs, many of which
are at a great disadvantage when
they come up against the profess
sionalism of most of the larger
Eastern and other shows.
1t has been said that the recent
Lynchburg and Greensboro shows
run under these plans were glori-
fed sanction matches. But anybody
who has ever had anything to do
with sanction match knows that
they are more fun than most Ii
censed shows, and would be de-
lighted to have a license show which
would provide both points and the
good humor of the well-run sane
ton match.
Military duties do not dampen
the ardor Of dyed-in-the wool dog
show fans. Word comes from
Capt. Perkins that his miniature
schnauzer, Siegenhund Won Stortz-
burg, has been picking up points
in the Middle West and South. A
fourth in the usually large terrier
group is win not to be sneezed at

The lives of most pure-bred dogs
are serene and happy. They are
given loving attention by their
mothers from the time OF birth. DoI-
ing mistresses find in their puppies
excellences unequaled by any otner
pups ever whelped. They are SOLD
or given to new masters when they
are fully weaned and Wormed and
are at their very cutest, so they can
start ingratiating themselves into
the hearts of their new owners
without delay. Then they are
groomed and fed special diets, pro-
tected from heat and cold, and gen.
orally pampered, so no unpleasant
experience ever enters their sheI-
tered lives.
Occasionally, however, a pup Is
born that seems destined for sor-
row. Such a pup was the Sheltle,
Tommy. One of an illustrious litter,
he was always eclipsed by MS
famous brother, who was the only
Sheltie that had ever attained two
best of breed wins at Madison
SQUARE Garden. Tommy's own VIZ
tues were likely to be overlooked
when visitors came to the kennel
With the coming of adulthood, II
was found that Tommy seemed Del-
ter able to sire show puppies than MS
champion brother, but TINS DID nov
endeay him any more 70 his ONlIrI'
However, it did bring him certain
measure of recognition in the dog
world and eventually a transfer to
a new kennel. where he soon pc
came cock O. the walk.
Expanding under the admiration
and love of his new owners, Tommy
bloomed and was happy for several
years. With the coming OF middle
age and the rise of some OF his own
sons in the kennel, Tommy was sent
down the country to rusticate. How
ever, the new move to strange
place and strange people, none OF
whom appeared torcare for him or
to appreciate his beauty and value,
bewildered the little dog. At first he
was quiet and reserved because of
strangeness, and then it became a
fixed habit and was labeled as sui
lenness. Nobody was his friend and
he was a friend to nobody. When
ever he had a chance, he would slip
out of the kennel gate and wander
of for several hours by himself,
but always came back. apparently
refreshed by his solitary run, but
no friendlier than before.
After several months Of this, the
only one he had ever acknowledged
as his real mistress appeared on the
farm. One look at her, and his eyes
frightened, his demeanor changed,
he seemed to plead silently TO be
taken home. The people on the farm
were not silent in their dislike of
this dog who apparently disliked
them. The decision was quickly
made to take Tommy back to the
place where he had been really
happy. Put loose in the car for the
long trip home, Tommy's whole out
look seemed to change Immediately
A couple of college boys just let out
of school and hiking their way home
were added to the passengers in the
car, and Tommy Immediately ac-
cepted them as friends. Weren't
they accepted by his own mistress?
He could hardly get enough of their
fondling and ear-scratching, and

Check carefully on the diet Of

necessary not only to the health and
normality of chicks when Matched
but also to their growth during their
first few weeks Of life.
The yellow corn and dried alfalfa
commonly fed to birds contain
enough vitamin A, and cod liver oil
or sardine oil provide sufficient vi
tamin D. However, vitamin G,
which is contained to some extent in
dried alfalfa, is lacking in the other
three products and is also lacking
generally in poultry rations. But this
factor may be added through the
use Of dried yeast or liver meal, al
