DOG INFORMATION
fAHrs i G w Afl1nnf011

Regarding Mrs. E. Ms
problem of which breed OF dog
to choose, there is a great Deal
more to choosing a dog than
is Immediately apparent. be-
fore deciding on any breed,
she would do well to acquaint
herself with the outstanding
characteristics of each type
which interests her by reading
the numerous books written
on each breed and by talking
to people who have owned or
bred these dogs. There are
no shy breeds or vicious or
stupid breeds, but there are
individual dogs of any breed
which fit these categories.
consequently I cannot urge
her too strongly to deal with
a kennel or breeder who is
reputable and well recon-
mended. The American Ken
mel Club at 221 Fourth avenue.
New York City. will gladly
furnish kennel information on
request.
To Mrs. n. A. R., Mclean,
you are right. Your dog would
have stopped hewing on
reaching maturity. Your prob
lem of the dog not coming
when called can be solved
easily. You might try an obedi-
ence course with him and you
will be amazed at the result
in a relatively short time. I
have four dogs, all obedience
trained, and they are a pleas
ure to live with in all respects.

TEHERAN.


Having lived in Teheran for
two years with three small
children, believe ] can tell
Mrs. j. F. that she will find
it a good place to establish her
home for two years.
Teheran is on a plateau,
5000 feet above sea level,
which gives it a desert-type
climate-extremely hot and
dry in the summer and very
cold with much snow in the
winter. Because the climate Is
dry, you will find it more
healthful and invigorating
than the weather here.
Schools are adequate. At
present, the Presbyterian mis-
sion operates the only Ameri-
can school, but I have been
told that Point Four is con-
structing q new school which.
will be ready to operate next
year.
