To the modern American family, the dog is the capstone of togetherness. No one doubts, then, that there are sound rea- sons why people like dogs, But less sound are the reasons why they prefer one breed to an- other. As Jerome Van. Wiseman, the proprietor of Gimbels' pet department (which sells more than 5,000 dogs yearly), put it: "It's like falling in love." Mulling the riddle among the New York department store's noisy pup populace last month, Van Wiseman ventured some general notions: "The mother of the family is usually the deci- sive factor, in whether to get a dog, and in what kind of dog to get. Nowadays, poodles are first, then beagles, then dachsh- unds, then Chihuahuas. Poodles don't shed, and the next three are all short-haired dogs. The dog shows don't have much to do with what breed is popular. Last year at Westminster, a Peke took Best in Show. We didn't get a single call for Pekes all that week. But when Dis- ney's "101 Dalmatians" opened in New York, we got 101 calls for them. Outside the city at the West- chester Kennel Club show last month, it was a 100-pound bloodhound that won the day. While dog fanciers milled about in sun helmets improvised from inverted cardboard elogfood dishes, a high-born hound nam- ed Short Bred's Marc of Giralda took top prize in the country's largest one-day show. Still, Ed- win -Sayres, manager of the Giralda Farms kennel, admitted: "It's unlikely that the breed will become more sought after as pets. They can get very unhappy in confined spaces." Presidents, Van Wiseman ex- plained, influence pooch pop- ularity, Charlie, the Kennedys' Welsh terrier, upstaged' as he is by Caroline, has still managed to start a small Welsh terrier flurry. "But it isn't what it was with Coolidge's airedale, or Roosevelt's Scotty, Poodles lead -now, but that's partly fashion, and partly that poodles are fine dogs. Very intelligent. It was for those same reasons -- intelligence and character — that German shepherds were the most popular breed'40 years ago. With the crash, though , they gave way to the Boston terrier which eats less. The cocker spaniel, mournful and affection• - ate, caught the nation's fancy from 1936 to 1952, as the world went from bad to wars. Then the energetic beagle became the totem of the '50s until the poodle ascendancy in 1950, There are, of course, quirks in dog buying that are impos- sible to explain. Gimbels gets ten or so letters a year front men, enclosing locks of their wives' hair, for Van Wiseman to match with a poodle. Psychia- trists frequently call up to pick dogs for their patients. General- ly, for high-strung people, a beagle or a hound is prescribed. Terriers are good for lethargic, depressed people. "Pugs," Van Wiseman said, "are coming in, in New York—the Duchess of Windsor keeps pugs. German shepherds are still popular . . , they're good watchdogs." it was at the great Dane ring of the Westchester Kennel Club show, where 105 of the huge dogs loped about or suffered the judge to examine their teeth, that Van Wiseman's ideas had their most pointed illustra- tion. A harried mother spoke firmly to her little boy: "No, you can't have one," and steered him off to the beagles with a lure of ice cream, — From NEWSWEEK Mass Killer Is On The Way Out War on that centuries-old scourge of mankind, cholera, is being waged so successfully to- day in India and nearby coun- tries that some medical scientists say it may be eradicated from the earth before the end of the twentieth century. What causes cholera? It is an infection spread by foul water, by raw food, by flies and by soiled hands, In past centuries fearful cholera epidemics have decimated large populations in some countries, but big out- breaks are now comparatively rare. Bathing in some of India's holy rivers by countless pilgrims was once a principal cholera risk, but mass vaccination and stringent regulations have help- ed to defeat the ravages of the disease. Hundreds of sweepers keep river banks c 1 e a n. Wells are purified. Fly-breeding spots are sprayed. Squads of sanitary po- lice make sure that all anti- cholera measures are carried out. Once cholera gets started it's very hard to stop. Parts of Rus- sia had an epidemic which led to 220,000 deaths in 1892. At. St. Petersburg (now Len- ingrad) a wedding feast ended abruptly when a young bride- groom who had married that morning suddenly collapsed while dancing and died. His heartbroken bride re- mained with him, declaring that she wanted to get the infection. She had to be dragged away by the wedding guests. Cholera epi- demics caused many deaths in various parts of Europe during the first half of the nineteenth century. Britain had its first serious epidemic in 1848-9 when 53,000 died.• Five years later another epidemic carried off 20,000, Theatret were closed, towns bar., ricaded themselves against re- fugees and people fled to the hills. A very extensive outbreak oc- curred iii 1865-18'75, and in 1884.85 cholera ravaged prance, Italy and Spain, Tn Paris they carried young girls to their graves in the fancy dresses they had been dancing hi a few hones before. These periodic plagues lasted until well into the 1890's. • 1 ^ it's PreSident Gibbs, President Of the latiritilig secretarial sChtiol that qtrippedi "ft you kineW 'where put a eciiiiiiitt j it's ac sigh of eflucatiou if 'yen know where` to put a Schillediiini IN a sign of culture." 13 YEARS AGO — Another United Nations official killed in the quest for peace was Count Folke Bernadotte.

It's a rule peculier to the. British Tunny Club that this mammoth fish must be taken from a row- ing boat Fishing elsewhere is from power craft, although when a tunny has been hooked the en- gine is switched off and man and fish fight it out. It's fairly common for a tun-. ny fish to grow to a length of over ten feet and weigh hall a ton. Only an expert fisherman can deal .with these monsters of the deep. There is considerable risk of injury in catching them, but the sport has always attract- ed the robust angler. A founder-member and • first president of the British Tunny Club in 1932 'celebrated -the in- auguration by landing a .798-11s, fish, beating the world record of Zane Grey, the writer of Wild • `MTMEI.M•1[1,19r A V.,gorid Mare Silent Than The Sea my two fe,vgurit. /{1n 9 of places in this World are coral eeefs and rain forests, I don't know how I Would vote if I had to cheese between them, had to decide that / could 04 only to reefs and never to forests again, or vice versa, My idea has long been to live by a broad, sandy beach with a rain forest behind 'me and a coral reef offshore be- lore me, with, either open to explOration or contemplation. !Maybe someday achieve the ideal. There are places where it is possible, Certainly they are different enough, the rain forest and the coral reef, They have no inhabi- tants in common , They have this in common: one is the pro- duct of the most favourable pos- sible conditions for life in the sea, the other for life on land, Sunlight, warmth, moisture, are always abundantly present, sta- ble, and favourable throughout the year. Moreover, they have remained about the same over long stretches of geological time. As a result, there is a tremen- dous variety of different kinds of organisms in both environ- ments — and these organisms, among themselves, have develop- ed a tremendous variety of dif- ferent kinds of relationships, "Rain forest" and "jungle" are frequently taken to mean the same thing. But I have never liked the word jungle. It has all the wrong connotations „ . The true rain forest, untouch- ed, almost untrodden by man, is a very different sort of place. The forest floor is open, carpeted with the richly variegated browns of many different kinds of fallen leave s, sometimes brightly spotted with blue or red or yellow from flowers that have fallen f r o m' unseen heights above. The carpeting is thin, easily scuffed away to show the red lateritic clay soil so charac- teristic of the equatorial regions. There is no thick accumulation of leaf mold like th5eefenorthern forests, no rich accumulation of humus. The processes of decay are too fast to permit much organic accumulation in the soil. There is little vegetation on the forest floor since the light Is too dim for plants. There is a thin growth of tree seedlings (which have no chance to grow unless some catastrophe to a for- est giant should open space), ferns, sometimes dwarf palms, or scattered thickets of huge- leaved aroids, the sort of plants that also grow well in the dim light of hotel lobbies. But basic- ally, the forest floor is open, with vistas of a -hundred feet or more, vistas framed and closed by the straight trunks of the trees that disappear into the vaulted green canopy that they support above. The rain forest is perhaps more truly a silent world than the sea, The wind scarcely pene- trates; it is not only silent, it is still. All sound then gains a curi- ously enhanced mysterse—From "The Forest and the Sea," by Marston Bates. FARM HELP WANTED ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF NURSES REQUIRED for 54.13cd hospital in West, ern Ontario.

Ottawa FOR SALE - MISCELLANEOUS In London, The Journal of the Institute of Chiropodists report- ed recently that a member of the organization, highly exasperated and frustrated, parked his car in a no-parking zone, He left on the windshield a message that read: "I have circled this block 20 times. I have an appointment to keep. Forgive us our tres- passes." When the gentleman returned, any hopes of official leniency he may have had were dashed by the following note: "I've circled this block 20 years. If I don't give you a ticket, I lose my job. Lead us not into temptation." The chiropodist got a rejoinder in kind that still managed to maintain official integrity. It is agreeable rather than otherwise to find relations be- tween offender and police con- ducted on such a genial basis and far be it from us to contend that the chiropodist put his foot in his mouth.—(Memphis) Com- mercial Appeal.

HELP WANTED MALE How Can I? By Roberta Lee Q. What is the best way to remove rain spots from a felt hat? A. Rub the surface of the hat with steel wool until the nap is raised, and you'll find the spots have disappeared. Q. Is there any way I can re- pair leather table tops that have been marred by deep cigaret burns? A. Sometimes melted wax will do the trick. Use wax of a color that matches the leather as closely as possible, and drop the melted wax into the burn hole, then smooth it flush with the leather surface, using a warm knife blade. Although this re- pair is not perfect, it will be al- most unnoticeable, if your colors are well matched. Q. How can I go about remov- ing the old whitewash from my basement walls preparatory to painting them? A. Soften the lime in the whitewash with a solution of one part muriatic acid and five parts water. Afterward, this should be brushed down with a stiff wire brush, followed by-a hosing with clean water, CAUTION: Wear rubber gloves when working with muriatic acid, and be very careful not to splash any of it on ydur clothes or skint HOSPITAL ORDERLY PERMANENT position open for man qualified by training and experience.

The season this year ,in Bri- tish waters is expected to last into October — unless very high seas suddenly make fishing im- possible. Tunny fishing remains one of the few types of big-game hunt- ing which the Englishman can still practise in the waters of his• homeland. After hooking a tunny he may tow you in a small rowing boat for four or five hours over the waves of the North Sea — and at times, it's like a prolonged trip on the giant racer at a fair- ground, When first hooked, the tunny tries all the tricks it knows. It makes short, swift rushes and frequent doublings. Sometimes it dives as a preliminary to a muscle-straining up and down tug o' war. No wonder tunsly fishing is called "the strong man's sport." Yet the tunny is no more than a giant mackerel with a girth double the thickness of a nor- mal man's body. The contour of the tunny's body is said to be the most perfect specimen of streamlining known in nature. Tunny feed largely on squid and smaller fish and when first sighted early in August they are. usually from thirty to sixty miles from land, but 118 the sea- son adviiaces they come as near as ten miles, Salted tunny was a great deli- cacy among the Romans, and the Phoenicians established a fish- ery in Spain at a Very early period. tunny fish are depleted on some of their medals.
