By Frank B. Lord

teams for the honor of being first to
have their names inscribed on the
Corley Challenge Cup will feature
the opening session of the winter
series of games of the Washington

any winning team an opportunity to
challenge the holders of the cup.

been named in honor of the organi-
zation's former president. 1t must
be won eight times by one team be-
fore it passes to its permanent pos

Jett's Dream Cloud, owned bv
Margaret Kubel, was one of the
first cocker spaniels in this vicinity
to win companion dog title. Her
mistress had great hopes of winning
even higher honors with Slipper,
and had her entered at both the
Harrisburg and Reading shows for
competition in the open class, which
would lead to a companion dog
excellent degree. Slipper was taken
i'll, apparently with acute indi-
gestion, several days before the
shows and died the day before the
Harrisburg event. Like the good
sport she is, Miss Kubel neverthe-
less drove a number of other
obedience class exhibitors and their
dogs to both shows and rejoiced in
their triumphs. Nobody was more
pleased or prouder than she when

nibbled at their food. The observer
hated to see the poor thing suffer,
but she had puppies of her own
and did not want the dog to come
into contact with them. She called
the Animal Rescue League, which
informed her it could not send for
the animal The District Pound
and the Police Department both
said they could not get the dog that

hold it until Monday they would
send for it then. Should she have
jeopardized her own valuable. pure

into the house? Should she let the

National Dog Week ends today.
It's aims might we'll be repeated
before the pressure of other affairs
puts them entirely out of mind:
i. A good hcme for every dog. 2.
Eliminate stray dogs from the
streets. 8. Better dog owners. 4.
Teach kindness and consideration
by children and adults toward dogs
and other animals. 5. Emphasize
the use of the dog as home pro-
tector, faithful companion and
useful servant of mankind. 6. Sc
cure fair and just laws for dogs and
their owners 7. Respect the rights
of those who do not own dogs.
These aims repay thought and
study. Numbers S, 6 and might
be especially emphasized. They
are aims that are not often given
due consideration, yet If ever they
came close to attainment, much Of
the resentment which is often un-
Willingly aroused by the over
sentimental dog-owner might be
eliminated. Could the pragmatist
be convinced that the dog is really
useful and necessary member OF
society, he might lose much of his
antagonism for an animal which he
often sees as the sentimental per-
sons substitute for a human object
of affection.
If fair and just laws for dogs and
their owners were universal, there
might be less surplus for other uses
from the dog-tax moneys collected
in every State, but there would also
be fewer stray dogs, less rabies, less
dog poisoning, less destruction of
property.
If dog owners could only bring
themselves to respect the rights of
people who do not own dogs, if they
would keep their dogs on their own
premises, shut them up at night so
they do not bark. keep them away
from the other fellows shrubbery
gardens and garbage pals; keep
their females in season off the
streets; this would be a much hap
pier world for the dogless fellows
and also for the dogs.

By Edmond Henderer.

The largest single group of hob
byists is one which has no organ
ization and is practically inarticu-
late. This, of course, Is the great
group of those who collect the
miscellaneous items, everything
from toothpicks to white elephants.
In most cases there are not enough
people collecting the same object in
any one town to enable them to or
ganize an association for their mu-
tual benefit. Among the more pop
ular of these miscellaneous collec-
tions is glass slippers and shoes.
Mrs. Charles Mccarthy, 4835 Van
Ness street NV, has been collecting
these miniature specimens Of foot
wear" for about five years. She Is
fortunate in having job which re-
quires her to visit a different part of
the country once each year. Each
trip affords her an opportunity to
search a new section for items for
her collection, which now numbers
IS pairs.
Mrs. Mccarthy became interested
in glass slippers when relative sent
her one which had been in the FAM
lily over 100 years. Unfortunately, it
was broken in the mail, although
not badly. Mrs. Mccarthy has had
it repaired, and it now occupies the
place of honor in her collection.
The collection, as such, really got
its start while its owner was in New
Orleans, shortly after receipt of the
first slipper. There Mrs. Mccarthy
saw a similar one in a small shop
and conceived the idea of becoming
collector.
At first she held strictly to glass
as a material, but more recently she
has added some items of china,
wood and metal to her collection.
Also, she takes boots and shoes as
we'll as slippers.
The wooden shoes were brought
from Austria and Belgium by a
friend who visited Europe a few
years ago. A good many others in
the collection are presents from
friends, but Mrs. Mccarthy has
bought items in Houston, San An
tonic, San Francisco, Memphis, At
lantic City, Bingham, Mass; Rut-
land, VT; Excelsior Springs, Mo-,
and, of course, right here in WASH
ington. Although purchased in such
variety of places, these are not
marked souvenir Of" something or
other. They are, for the most part,
old items picked up in antique shops,
and are of many curious shapes and
designs.
Most of the collection Is kept In
Mrs. McCarthy's china cabinet, but
she expects to have to give them a
cabinet of their own before she
acquires many more.
Having visited As of the States
Mrs. Mccarthy expects to go to

like that. The same qualities made him
able to graduate with honors from
the University of North Carolina,
though his undergraduate years had
been crowded with extra activities -
as leader of his class, as editor of
the college annual, as cheer leader,
and as organizer of a college band that
not only made an of-campus name for

nucleus of the famous band of today.
Asked to give his own formula for
success, Kay answers, 81 have a few
simple principles: there's no automo-
bile made in the world that doesn't
require fabrication, refueling, and
occasional cleaning up of the spark
plugs. The human body's like that,
too. And it's a religion with me to
get eight hours of sleep day. to drink
plenty of water, to eat three or four
or as many meals day as are neces-
sary, and to play little - take in
picture shows, go dining and dancing,
get around to places and see what's
going on in the world.
''As for food" Kay says, Il eat
practically everything God ever Great
ed, and eat plenty. / lean toward
southern food, especially things you
don't often get outside of the South:
black-eyed peas, for instance, crack
lin bread, hominy grits, which a
Southerner just calls 'grits,' and
southern fried chicken as it's really
done in the South. I've never found
it in the North; it's very crisp and,
though extremely tender, it's dry -
not soaked with gravy as they do it
up here. like southern cakes, too,
and especially pies"
Sure enough, Kay likes southern
cooking so well that his devoted
seventy five year old mother dis
patches big packages of home-cooked
delicacies to follow in his wake across
the United States, and catch up with
him wherever he may be.
But" Kay says, "I'm fond of for
eign foods, also; and I've tried to
become something of an authority.

where you can get the best Italian
