Team workers are now being selected and will be an- nounced later While the association’s budget for the vear is approximately $375,000, by far the greater part of this amount will be derfved from the various depart- ments or phases of association work which are seif-supporting, it is stated, and the revenue-producing features of which make possible the large amount of work accomplished by the Wash: ingta® “Y."

FLYER'S DOG INSISTS ON MAKING AIR TRIPS British Pilot’s Pet Attracts Atten- tion to Throngs When Left Behind. LONDON, October 2 (Correspond- ence).—The well known English avia- tor Barnard, who is a pilot connected with the Stag Lane Airdrome, Lon- don, has a dog named Dan who en- acts 2 most human role every time his master makes a flight, and whose chiet delight in life seems to be to have his master take him up in the alr with him. ‘When flying with his master, Dan sits in the cockpit beside Barnard and surveys the vista thousands of feet below, never for a moment having shown the slightest fear of flving or getting what aviators call “air sick.” It is a sad day for Dan when Bar- nard makes a flight without his pet, and Dan is the most crestfallen dog tn the world, for he seems to know in advance that he is not to be taken up. However, Dan appears on the flylng field as soon as Barnard gets there and keeps up an incessant bark- ing and velping as if begging to be taken along. When Barnard has en- tered the plane and it starts off, Dan chases after it, following the full length of the airdrome barking to be taken along. When the plane leaves the ground, Dan sits down and, with ears pricked up, watches the machine until it is out of sight. Even then nothing can move Dan from his post of watchful waiting un- til his master returns, when he greets JEWISH BODY PLANS TO INSTALL OFFICERS Rabbi J. T.
