In its procurement work of obtaining dogs and shipping them to the Army, Navy and Coast Guard for training, Dogs for Defense is the canine equivalent of the selective service board, according to Lewis A. Starkey, subregionat director of Dogs for Defense for the Pasadena area.

Costs Set at $10 By the time a dog is turned over to the Army or Navy Department it is estimated that the animal accepted has incurred an expense of $10. It is to cover this cost that the fund is being collected. Thousands of dogs from Southern California are needed. If jour dog has short legs, long ears or some other disqualifying trait, let him help by con-tribuung his bit to Dogs for Defense in the form of a donation to the fund. and the outstanding community service accomplished by a news story, editorial feature in any Southern California newspaper except th four metropolitan dailies of Los Angeles.

There's a land-office business, by remote control, from our boys in the armed forces who "say it with flowers" from all parts of the world to the folks hack home. Eight thousand dollars' worth of such orders came through from Alaska alone at Christmas. HUSH, HUSH Since the location of our boys in England, Ireland, Africa and the South Pacific is, of course, a military secret, a clearinghouse for all orders has been set up in Detroit with governmental sanction. Two million dollars worth of orders has passed through this point since war started. AU such negotiations are sent via the various chaplains to Detroit, whence they are reallocated throughout the country.

LOST AND FOUND One boy ordered a poinsettia for his mother at Christmas. Without his knowledge she had moved from Southern California.
