FTER many post
ponements the sur
~ gical dressings for
the Red Cross got
- - under way this
week with four days we'll filled
with workers. The workers
are occupying the club room of
the Carlisle Fire Company,
which was generously loaned
for the purpose as long as it
will be needed. Heat, light and
comfortable working condi-
tions are found here and each
of the wards of the town will
have a day for the workers.
Tuesday is the day for the First
Ward, Wednesday for the Sec
ond, Thursday for the Third,
and Friday for the Fourth. This
is a very fine arrangement,
which gives all volunteers a
day of four hours. From ten
until twelve and from two until
four each day volunteers will
report and there will be super
vision of the work. Should the
workers not be able to give
four hours on their day, any
part of the time will be appre-
ciated and she will be given
credit for the time she is able
to help. Just now there are
large quantities of gauze to be
made into Sx12 dressings and
they are much needed. Speed
comes only through practise,
so the more hours a worker
serves the more proficient she
becomes.

BY r. r. TAYNTON,

Thomas Jefferson High School in
Arlington County will be the scene
of two dog shows this week end
They are being sponsored by the
Central Maryland Kennel Club and
the Arlington County Kennel Club.
With the entries taken at the
last two shows here the total should
reach close to 400 for each.
A dog show week end on home
territory always seems to produce
more amusing and memorable in
cldentS than shows away. Prob
ably the most widely discussed in
cldent of last weekend affairs was
the best in show judging at the
Old Dominion. Judge Leon Iri-
berry awarded this supreme honor
to japanese spaniel. Kumochi No
Chame, owned by Leo Fruehauf and
imported from Japan. There was
not much question of the quality
OF the little dog The question
seemed to be Of the advisabilitv of
giving such an award to this breed
OF oOe, particularly an imported
one, and more particularly one
owned by man with such Teu-
tonic name. This is idiotic and the
award was fully justiflable. Dur
ing the last World War, the dach-
shund was prosecuted dog. Yet,
after the war, another German
breed emerged as the hero OF the
canine world, the German shep-
herd. And in this war the Ger
man shepherd is giving good
account of himself under the flags
of the Allies. Dog breeders have
prided themselves that there has
been no discrimination against
breeds because Of their countries of
origin. It would be too bad to
change that attitude.
