Two, she says, are the equivalent of masters degrees. Mrs. Dutton first started her serious study of flower arrangements 15 years ago while recuperating from a spinal operation. She had thought of taking up painting. But because she had always loved working In her garden in her native Asheville, N. C., she also turned instead to making living pictures with flowers. Acme of Simplicity At the moment, Mrs. Dutton describes her Japanese arrangements as being in the “naturalistic manner with a trend toward the modern school.” This may sound complex, but the results are masterpieces of simplicity, : And simplicity for its own sweet sake is only part of the reward of being able to work with Japanese arrangements.

Canines of Charm Graduated
DOG OBEDIENCE—At Flag Dog Training School in New York, Dorothy Spalthoff gives her cocker spaniel, "Spaats,” the | sit-stay command.
By GAILE DUGAS NEW YORK, Aug. 4 — The boxer who thinks he’s a lap dog and the cocker spaniel who
| likes to jump all over guests are not really problem dogs.
They simply happen to be owned by masters who've never realized that dogs, like children, have to be taught to be-
have.
In a unique charm school for dogs here, just one course is
taught: Obedience. What makes
this school unique is that the dog's owner must take the training with his pet and must teach him each exercise. The Flag Dog Training School is
not a charm school with frills; ~
it does not teach parlor tricks.

” n ” IF THE SCHOOL has a motto, it’s: “Your dog is your best friend; be his best friend.” To this end, the owner teaches each exercise to his pet, under the watchful eyes of skilled instructors. Owners are told’ never to shout at their dogs nor to stamp their feet. Often, parents enroll a child and his dog for the course. The first
thing the child learns is -that he must never tease or torment
animals. At the beginning of the 10weeks' obedience course, the canine student is taught to
walk by his master’s side with- |
out pulling on the leash. Once he's got that, he learns to sit
