NEWPORT, R. 1., Oct. 26. The steamship Commonwealth, Fall River to New York, carrying 325 passengers and seventy-five officers and crew, reported by wireless today that she was help less in the gale off Watch Hill. The coast guard cutter Acushnet and the New Londop wrecking tug Commissioner put out to the Commonwealth’s assistance. Latest reports by radio stated that the Acushnet and the Com missioner had the Commonwealth in tow for Newport—that all on board were safe. Victim of Great Gale x The gale, which damaged the Commonwealth’s port paddle'wheel and buckets, was the same that swept New England with hurricane force, wrecking buildings, killing one man and injuring six others Woburn, Mass. The vessel, which sailed from Fall River and Newport last evening, had weathered the gale until mid way between the arm of Point Judith and the Witch Hill shore. At this point the ship was so rocked by the hurricane wind that 1 her port paddle wheel and buckets I were torn away, rendering her help less. i Anchors were dropped and calls were sent for aid by Captafin R. J. Roberts. Captain Roberts had found it im i possible to make repairs at sea and he could not continue. At first fear for the safety of the passengers was expressed and plans were made to transfer them to rescue ships. But the wind sunsided somewhat and the transfer was found un necessary. At Newport passengers will be I put ashore and those who desire, i may continue to New York by special train. Officers of the Commonwealth said by radio they were uncertain whether the contact with the heavy roll of the sea or contact with some floating wreckage caused the loss of the port paddle wheel and buckets. Messages tollin c of the plight of the Commonwealth were picked up I Iby the Independent Radio Com pany at New London, Conn., and 1 relayed to Warren T. Berry, su i of the line operating the Commonwealth. The first message from Captain Roberts said: “Broke bucket and port paddle wheel. Obliged to an chor.” i The next message said: “Damage i too extensive for repairs where we are. Will have to be towed to I Newport." Cutter Makes Record. i A telephone message was put through to the coast guard station at Woods Hole and almost in lefts I time than it takes to write it the coast guardmen aboard the Acushnet were tumbling out of their bunks and the cutter was leaving her wharf for the run south. The run of the Acushnet from the coast to the stricken liner was a memorable one for those aboard. The wind was tearing down the coast line at a sixty mile clip. The little Acushnet put her nose Into the swell and like a greyhound of the sea reached her objective. Meanwhile, the Merrftt-Chapman Scott Corporation's tug Commis sioner put out from New London, but her run was a shorter one than the Acushnet. Both the Acushnet and the com (Contiryued oq Page 2, Column 7.) WASHINGTON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1925. PRINCE OF WALES IN WOMAN’S CLOTHES fl 1 —iPhoto by Underwood Underwood.

Great Britain’s chances in the Schneider cup races received another disas trous blow this morning when Cap tain Bert Hinkler, British pilot, smashed up one of the Gloster- Napier entries in landing. Hinkler smashed both pontoons on his entry, and the high waves threw his-damaged plane into an other British entry piloted by Cap tain Hubert Broad, damaging It so severely that it probably will be un able to start in this afternoon’s con test. Today’s misfortunes for the Brit ish. following on the heels of the wrecking of their "mystery plane” on Saturday, reduces Britain’s en tries in the triangular international contest today to one single plane.

EDITION BEST TIME IS MADE BY HARTZ IN UK Goes Around in 135.9 Mile* An Hour—De Paolo Does It in 130.6 By JIM RING LAUREL SPEEDWAY, Oct. 26.—Fred Wagner, veteran starter of many automobile clas sics, stands in his perilous little box above the huge oval track here today, holding a checkered flag. That flag will wave before the goggled eyes of sixteen daring automobile racers in a few min utes, starting them on a heart breaking, nerve-wrenching race of 250 miles around and around the great, tilted stretch of board. In the grandstand, extending the full length of the oval, thou sands of waiting spectators look down nnon the scene of the big sporting event. Police directed motorists to the parking space, already occupied by hundreds of machines. The track was thoroughly tested by Mr. Wagner and other race of ficials to guarantee the safety of the drivers. Hartz Doe® 135.9 an Hour The pits on the side of the track were full of busy mechanics, as the light racing machines, after their spins around the long wooden,/ road, were carefully examined. At noon the high mark for the test runs was held by Harry Hartz, driving a Miller Special. Wagner clocked him at 135.9 miles an nour. Peter De Paolo, victor of the Daurel Inaugural race, turned in a top of 130.6 and Benny Hill went around at a speed of 126.6. Crowd Bundled Up Warmly. Field glasses came into evidence in the grandstand as the noon hour approached. The crowd apparently anticipated a cold afternoon, for overcoats were being worn gener ally, and many gayly-hued blankets were carried into the seats. The skies were clearing, and a faint sunshine fell upon the speed way a few hours before the race.

The racers who appeared at the track today to qualify were other than those previously mentioned, Errl Cooper, Fred Comer, Tommy Milton, Jerry WonderEch,. Norman Batten, Doctor William E.

Hoover said I that "should a world referendum be taken, an overwhelming senti ment for the abolition of wars would be reflected.** "As long as there are interna tional petty quarrels, conflicts over boundaries and other disputes, we can never have peace,” Hoover de clared. The Locarno treaty is a start on the right track. It removes one more barrier against peace.” Urging religion as a great force to maintain the moral and spiritual forces of the country, Hoover re ferred to "Russia’s experiment in rearing godless generations as domed to failure, as its structure is built on political sands. ‘Our country is in the midst of a i tremendous increase in wealth and In its distribution among our peo ple. ho said.

Prior to the big race the navy had planned to conduct an air dem onstration, to include smoke screens and curtains, aerial acrobatics and fighting, formation flying, torpedo and bomb dropping, but the wreck ing of most of the planes in Sun day’s gale knocked out this feature.

The American team ruled favor ite today to win the cup for the second time. The army contingent expressed confidence that Doolittle, one of the army’s best pilots, would win, while the naval officers were equally sanguine that either Cud dihy or Ofstie would annex the cup. To care tor possible crashes, a crash boat patrol has been estab lished. Two boats with a doctor and first aid equipment will patrol each leg of the course. To prevent pleasure craft from cruising over the course the harbor entrance from Bodkin Foint to Fort Howard will be closed. Coast guard vessels, under command of Captain A. L.

TAX APPEALS IN LAST TEN MONTHS TOTAL NEARLY $130,000,000 AVERAGE CASEIS 515.0D0 Government and Citizens Have /‘About Broken Even” So Far, Officials Say By ROBERT THORNBURGH Disputed tax questions involving nearly $130,000,000 have been brought to the United States Board of Tax appeals for adjust ment in the last ten months, it was announced today. Official records show that out of approximately 4,500,000 Fed eral encome taxpayers in the United States, 8,134 appealed to the board from the assessments fixed by the Bureau of Internal Revenue. Os this number 3,500 have been disposed of. Many resulted in compromises “out of court.” Offi cials were unable to estimate ac curately whether or not taxpayer or Government has been a victor in a majority of cases but they “guessed” it had been “a draw.” Average in Dispute Appeals filed with the board aver age $15,894 as the amount of taxes in dispute. The board, which Is an inde pendent agency of the Government, has cast into the discard the iron clad secrecy which guards the ad justment of tax cases in the Bureau of Internal Revenue. In this radical departure from methods of the past officials feel that the board has accomplished most in establishing a standardized set of tax rulings. While in the Treasury the view of tax question rules and regula tions may change with each suc ceeding administration, in the board of tax appeals an attempt is being made to set up a standardized sys tem of procedure and to build a policy of dealing with taxpayers comparable to the judiciary. Big Refunds Expected By this system it is believed that eventually reassessment of tax payers and refunds to them by the Government, amounting so far this s’ear to nearly $150,000,000, will be made unnecessary. It was explained that under the board’s policy taxpayers are not re quired to make payments to the Government until final determina tion of the tax due. The standardized interpretation of the law, which should result from the publication of decisions, and the trial of all cases in public, is expected to save the Govern ment and tax payers millions of dollars in useless litigation in the future. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon has recommended to Congress the authorization of a board of sixteen members. .If sufficient appropriation is granted the board will establieh five subdivisions of three members each, whose operation will expedite vastly the handling of the thousands of cases now piling up here. One division of the board will be maintained in the field at all times. Under the law tax payers have the right to ask hearing of cases in Washington or in the field. Owing to the delay occasioned by lack of field boards cases of this character are often held up for months. Officials said, however, that there is a general demand among big tax payers to present their cases at Washington, where they avoid to some extent the publicity at tached to “home hearings.” CHARLOTTESVILLE FIRE DOES $300,000 DAMAGE CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Oct. 26.

Seventeen persons are dead, fifty injured and thousands of dollars of property damage was done by a tornado which swept three coun ties in Alabama Sunday, accord ing to a survey of the storm area today. The storm, which struck first in Pike county, swept through Crenshaw, Bullock and Barbour counties, laying to waste buildings and leaving death and destruction in its path. Seven of the reported dead were white persons and ten negroes. Relief Work Under Way Relief •work was reported already under way from Troy and other cities in the devastated territory. No large towns or cities were in the path of the Ftorm. Those who were victims were mostly killed when their houses collapsed under the terrific wind, and they were burled under the wreckage. The damage done was largely to small communities and outlying farms. The heaviest loss of life was in the territory surrounding Troy, in Pike county, where the twister first descended, after blowing in from Crenshaw’ county. From the Troy vicinity it ranged eastward into Barbour and northward into Bul lock county, where it spent its force. The storm left a trail of wreckage ir its wake. Houses, fences and outbuildings were blown to splint er*, trees uprooted, and a terrific downpour of rain followed immedi ately behind the wind. This and a severe electrical storm hampered rescue operations and prevented an accurate check of the death toll for several hours. THE WASHINGTON TIMES RESIGNATION OF CAILLAUX ASKED French Minister Told Entire Cabinet Will Quit If He Doesn’t By FREDERICK K. ABBOTT International Newa Service PARIS, Oct. 26. —Demands for the resignation of M. Joseph Cail laux, French finance minister, were made during a stormy session of the cabinet today. Caillaux, who steadfastly refuses to resign, and who also refuses to I accommodate his financial policy to i the demands of the radicals, was i under a heavy fire during the brief cabinet session. I “If you don’t resign we will hand in the entire cabinet’s resignation,” M. Briand. foreign minister, de clared to Caillaux- Premier Painleve is said to have also urged upon M. Caillaux tha he resign in order that the remain- der of the cabinet could carry on Its work. His. request was backed not only by M. Briand but also by Minister of Public Works Laval. I Painleve Is Caustic Premier Painleve was caustic In his criticism of Caillaux before the cabinet and laid particular stress upon Caillaux’s defiant speech yes- j torday when he denounced the capi- i tai levy and said he would make no concessions to the demands of the chamber majority. Caillaux stood pat. With his eyes flashing and his voice raised to a pitch which made it audible outside the cabinet chamber, he replied: “I understand perfectly what you desire. You want me to resign so that you may form another cabinet without me. “I refuse. “I will go before the chamber I with the entire cabinet and foil with it and not alone.” Cabinet Adjourns After this dramatic stand bv Caillaux the cabinet adjourned until tomorrow, in an effort to patch up the situation. Public opinion seems to agree with Caillaux’s prediction i that the entire cabinet will fall when it goes before thd chamber. An official communique strives to make it appear that all is well, i It states that Callaux read his financial projects to the cabinet, I but had only one copy and, there- i fore, it was impossible for a gen- eral discussion. The official state ment says that cabinet members i will ‘be furnished with copies of Caillaux’s projects this afternoon and will have an opportunity to study them before tomorrow’s meeting. A meeting with President Dou- I mergue, which was to have followed at Elysee palace, was postponed until tomorrow. Caillaux’s flat declaration against the capital levy and against reduc-• tion of the interest rate on govern- ment rents Sunday was believed to i make his position untenable in a ministry backed by a majority' claiming radical and Socialist sup- I port. These elements in the cham jjer axa jgledged, to a capital lev#* 'LONE WOLF 81 LOIS, LISI TOMI ‘‘Something Snapped In My Head,” Asher Cries, and Drops Dying CHICAGO, Oct. James Leroy Asher, daring and resourceful pro hibition agent,.known generally as “The Lone Wolf,” lies dead here today of a cerebral hemorrhage. The death of the revenue officer, sudden and quiet, was in sharp con trast with his years of reckless war fare against dangerous bands of bootleggers. Asher complained to bls wife yes terday morning of a severe head ache. He was preparing for a bath when he fell to the floor and cried to Mrs. Asher that “something had snapped in his head.” A hotel physician kept the dying man alive for an hour and a half, and then pronounced life extinct. He declined, however, to sign a death certificate until the coroner had seen the body. A later official report was given that a cerebral t hemorrhage was the cause of death. Doctor Joseph Springer, coroner’s physician, said he had found a blood clot on the brain. An early suspicion of poison was voiced by E. C. Yellowley, Chicago’s prohibition administrator, and an Investigation xvas begun. Threatened by Sawed Off. It was known that Asher had been threatened frequently since his arrival here, notably by a boot legging case owner, whose warning letters were signed “Sawed Off.” The tales of Asher’s ruthless raids involving the destruction of saloon fixtures and other property, made him decidedly unpopular among the Chicago dry law violators But the fear of Asher was as strong as the hatred the bootleggers had for him. Asher’s last Important assignment was in Peoria, 111., known as one of the wettest spots in the State. The mopping-up of the town by Asher and his partner, Francis Hertzlg, drew down upon them the wrath of the Peoria judiciary, and their actions were under investiga tion at the time of the agent’s death. Much Disguised Here Asher’s first appearance in Wash ington was attended by considerable mystery. He first turned up here as a “Kentucky Colonel,” one of the most famous of-’his disguises, about two years ago. A little later, as a huckster and an organ grinder, Asher got evi dence on the strength of which hun dreds of raids were conducted by police and dry agents in one day. Under orders from Prohbition Commissioner Haynes, Asher oper ated also in Norfolk and in Philadel phia, wherg h® wa acquitted, sev eral months ago, of fatally assault ing a saloon keeper. Returning to this city for addi tional clean-ups, Asher fell afoul of the courts. Judges refused to accept evidence presented by him asR valid, and dismissed case after case. Repeatedly he was reprimanded from the bench for bringing into court cases in which he was the only witness. Once Saloon-Keeper Then came the order that as signed Asher to Chicago, where he was working ‘‘under cover” on cer tain big bootleg operators. Asher was a Kentuckian and was horn forty-four years ago. His ca reer as prohibition agent began in his home State, where his whole sale arrests and convictions attract ed the attention of national prohibi tion officials. Prior to the prohibition era, he was in the saloon business Jn Wash ington, Baltimore, and later in Nor folk. Bootleggers often accused him of using old friendships, made in the days when he himself was a ar- I tender, to assist him in making ar lests.

The picture was shown under the auspices of the Bureau of Commer cial Economics in compliment to the British abassador. S r Esme Howard. As the exploring was done under the direction of the Royal Geo graphic Society, a special section was reserved in the center of the little cheater for the members of the British embassy and their friends.

The Philadelphia Orchestra, un der the direction of Leopold Sto kowski, will play the first of its five concerts here at the New Auditorium on Tuesday afternoon, October 27. For the purely orches tral numbers Mr. Stokowski has programed four weeks of diversi fied character, while the soloist, Mme. Olga Samaroff, will play the Mozart concerto-in A major for piano and orchestra. Tho symphony is the “Unfin ished” of Schubert, that fragment of imperishable beauty which takes its place among the great art works of a’J time. Almost all of the finer Schubert —his tenderness, his can dor, his melancholy, his sense of drama, are to be found in this, the greatest of all his works. It was begun in the composer’s twenty sixth year, six years before his un timely death, and was composed as a gesture of thanks to the musi cal societies of Graz and Linz which had elected him an honorary mem bar. The program opens with the ma jestic choral-prelude of Bach, “We All Believe in One God,” orches trated by Mr. Stokowski, and closes with the dance of the Seven Veils from Richard Strauss’ opera, “Sa lome.” A striking contrast to these numbers-is afforded by the two noc turnes of Debussy, “Clouds” and “Festicals,” the most perfect ex amples of Impressionistic tone-paint tag in musical literature. The classic beauty and simplicity of the Mozart concerto, which Mme. Samaroff will play, is eminently suited to her special gifts as pian ist and has been played by her on many occasions with striking effect. MRS. WILSON-GREENE Sc hi pa Opens First Series Tito Schipa, the brilliant young lyric tenor of the Chicago Grand Opera Company, whom Washington music lovers heard for the first time at a brief appearance last winter with the New York Sym phony Orchestra as soloist, will open Mrs. Wilson-Greene’s 1925-26 concert season on Wednesday after noon of next week, November 4, by appearing as the first artist in that manager’s philharmonic course.

FRENCH PIANIST PRAISED BY MASTERS Chickering Sons Present Dumesnil in Concert by Courtesy of Jordan’s Maurice Dumesnil, internationally known French pianist and a special interpreter of the modern French and Italian composers, will be pre sented in recital Thursday evening, November 5, at 8:15, at the Masonic Auditorium, by Chickering Sons, Boston. Invitations are being sent cut by the Arthur Jordan Plano Company. It is unusual to read as many tributes to an artist, from the com posers he interprets, as Dumesnil possesses. Debussy himself writes him: “Play always the ‘lmages’ with the beautiful, soft, and sensi tive touch of yesterday. It was’ perfect.” Saint-Saens says of their ensemble playing: ‘T was delighted to play with you my ‘Scherzo’ and ‘Variations,’ and it was ~a feat to attain such precision in public with out rehearsal!!” Dumesnil will hold a ‘‘teacher’s class” at the Chickering headquar ters, the Jordan Piano Company, on Friday, November 6, to which the teachers of Washington are most cordially invited. It will be a mas ter class of modern French and Spanish music, and should be an inestimable privilege for the mu sicians of Washington to attend. Stony Point Ensemble Unites Russe and Our U. S. A i The Anyerican Nightingale and the Russian Bear will join in sweet song in the “vocal sym phony orchestra” of the Stony Point Ensemble, that comes to the Washington Auditorium in a gala seven-art program on the evening of November 19. Five octaves are covered in the range of the “vocal sym phony orchestra” of the Stony Point Ensemble. Lower E is reached by the deepest basso, Alexander Kurochkin, and upper E by the highest coloratura voice in the vocal ensemble, which is that of Leah Horne, a very young girl with a remark able vocal organ. Alexander Kurochkin was a member of the Ukrainian na tional chorus, which toured this country under the guidance of Max Rabinoff for two seasons. His voice, one of the deepest and most voluminous from that land of famous bassos, has al ways been singled out by the critics in a paragraph of amazed enthusiasm. Leah Horne is a Cleveland girl, still in her teens. She was working as a stenographer when her voice, heard in some local entertainment, attracted atten tion, and she was urged to seek a hearing at the American In stitute of Operatic Art at Stony Point-on-the-Hudson. Although still too inexperienced for solo work, her tiemendous possibil ities were at once seen by Max Rabinoff, director general of the institute, and the young singer was placed in the soprano group of the Stony Point Ensemble.

Wrinkles Removed in 15 Minutes—Cost 3 Cents! The Tarkroot Method Quite a sensatiog has been created in t certain social circles over the wonder ful rejuvenating effects of a simple tarkroot mixture which any woman can easily apply at home. The re sults are so remarkable that one has told others, who. in turn, have told many more, and now the new method bids fair jo supersede all the patent "wrink#? removers.” massage and other things used for the purpose. This is the nroeedurt: A spoonful of powdered tarkroot is mixed with a spoonful of lemon juice, and this is spread over the face. An amazing transformation takes place. as the mirror shows. In less than IS minutes wrinkles, crowsfeet and creases, have completely vanished! Facial contour is noticeably improved and the face looks years younger. The most skill ful massaging could not produce such a wholesome effect as remains after the mixture has been washed off. Tarkroot Is. of course, perfectly harmless. Inex pensive. too. An original package from the druggist contains sufficient to bring the cost per treatment under 3 cents. TARKROOT BAD CASE OF LUMBAGO QUICKLY RELIEVED George P; Plitt, Washington, D.

Difference of Opinion Expect ed to Mark Conference of Prince Georges Citizens PRINCE GEORGES COUNTY, Md.,‘ Oct. 26. —According to reports, the meeting of citizens of Prince Georges county tomorrow at Upper Marlboro with the county commis sioners. to discuss whether or not the county should have a new almshouse, may develop quite a marked division of opinion. Representatives of women’s clubs and civic and other organizations throughout the county are expected to attend the meeting which has been set for 10:30 a. m. Those favoring a 'new almshouse state the present one is unsatis factory hoth as to equipment and location and it is suggested that a new one be built in connection with which accommodations would be provided for mental observation cases and detention of juveniles and witnesses. It is argued that these observation and detention cases can now be handled only through placing the person under observation or under detention in jail. It is stated, however, that there is some opposition in the county to a new almshouse among those who feel that the county has more important needs for which to pro vide. It has been suggested that instead of maintaining an alms house in this county all the poor of this, as well as the other counties of the State, be taken care of in one large State institution. The call for the meeting with the county commissioners has been broadcast by Miss Agnes Duvall, county social service worker, that the commissioners might learn the true sentiment of citizens of the county regarding the situation. Among important meetings sched uled in the county tonight are the monthly session of the Citi zens’ Association at Mt. Rainier; regular meeting of the mayor and town council at Brentwood; October meeting of the Chamber of Com merce at Hyattsville, and a meet ing at the home of Mrs. C. G. John son, Branchville, to perfect organi zation of the woman’s auxiliary of the Branchville fire department and to plan a campaign for raising funds for a fire house for that de partment. If the weather is good, upwards of 200 women representing the va rious clubs making up the Prince Georges County Federation of Women’s Clubs are expected to at tend the semi-annual meeting of the Federation to be held Thurs day beginning at 10:30 a. m. at the Methodist Episcopal Church at Lanham, with the Lanham Study Club as host. Miss Theresa M. Wiedefeld, rep resenting the State department of education, and Miss Estelle M. Stewart, of the office of the FeJ ieral commissioner of labor statis tics, are anounced as speakers. .Miss Wiedefeld will speak on “Citi zenship in the Schools,” and Miss I Stewart is to discuss “Almshouses.” They both will speak in the after noon, the morning session being given over to business. Luncheon will be served by women of the Lanham M. E. Church.

AUSTRIA TURNS TO WHITE GOAL Republic Rick in Waterpower for Vast Hydro-electric Developments The Republic of Austria, all that Is left of the Austro-Hungarian em pire, is rich In waterpower sites suitable for hydro-electrical de velopment. according to William Ford Upson, 'United States com mercial attache at Vienna. Mr. Up son reports that sites which might profitably be developed could pro duce-about 1,700,000 horsepower of electricacl energy. This is particularly important since Austria’s pre-war supply of coal came from mines in Bohemia, now part of Czechoslovakia. With out coal of her own, Austria has, since 121, been turning to water power produced electricity, and to date thirty-seven hydro-electric generating stations, with a total capacity of 105,300 horsepower of electrical energy, have been put in operation. In addition, thirty one other hydro-electric generating stations, with a -total capacity of 109,000 horsepower, are now in process of construction. This is all part of the plan of the Austrian Waterpower and Electric Commission which calls for the con struction. by 1935, of hydro-electric plants with a total cacpacity of 900,000 horsepower of electrical energy. ELECTRIC FIRE ALARM GETS QUICK ACTION IN N.Y. It takes but thirty seconds from the time one of the electric fire alarm boxes New York City begins to tick off a call until fire fighting apparatus is actually on its way. During this time the call has been received at signal headquarters, twice verified by two different men and given to the man operating »the electric trans mitter which sends out the com mand to roll to the proper fire companies. Generally, speaking, throughout developed sections of the city, fire alarm boxes are so placed that, in case of fire, one does not have to go more than 500 feet to find one. U. S. NOW BOASTS 600 ELECTRIC SERVICES In the United States there are approximately 6,000 electric service companies. Os these companies, 63 per cent generate the electricity which they supply to their customers by steam driven equipment and in the course of a year consume as fuel thirty three million tons of coal, six million barrels of oil and forty-four billion feet of gas. ARTIFICIAL LAKE TO HAVE GIANT GENERATOR Artificial lakes on the estates of the wealthy are nothing unusual, but how about an electric generat ing station built beside such a lake covering 120»- acres? At Boulder, Colo., where water is scarce, a new electric generating plant has been built and beside it there is an artificial lake which assures an ample supply of water for cooling purposes.

DAVIDSON—I Although many of us do not Iqpk upon fall house cleaning as a divert ing bit of amusement com? to break into the monotony of everlasting household routine, it is nevertheless just that. Done systematically, it is very simple and the results are just as satisfying as though the house wife has worked nearly to death. In our house the cleaning begins in the cellar and the leading player in this underground drama is not the harassed housewife but her hus band —Mr. Davidson. Once the furnace is cleaned and the asbestos covered steam pipes and cellar walls are gone over with the electric cleaner one has some assurance that when the upstairs part of the house is cleaned and winter draperies are hung, dust from the cellar will not seep up stairs and settle pall-like over every thing. Otherwise that is exactly what happens and then the house wife wonders why her house stayed clean such a short time. Cleaning the attic, if there be one, should follow the work in the cel lar. At this time unpack winter draperies and rugs and air them while the summer things are being washed and pagked away. I have found that it simplifies my cleaning tremendously to wash all covers, curtains? draperies and rugs and put «hem away unironed. In this way with my electric washer I can do all the washing in one session, taking the curtains first, draperies next, furniture covers after that and, last, the rag rugs. Or if one objects to having the house entirely curtainless for a day or two then do one or two rooms at a time. In this instance the upper floors should be cleaned first. This is a particularly good scheme where one must do the cleaning without help. In this way also one may do only a certain amount of cleaning each day or even each week and not overdo it. Besides there is a ‘‘thrill” in store every time another room is cleaned and ready for winter. As a rule, In house cleaning a room, I wash the woodwork first, or rather wash it after I have gone over the walls and particularly the woodwork with my electric cleaner, using the proper flexible hose attachments. If this is not done the dust on the wodowork, when wet, forms a greasy film which is very difficult to remove, whereas once the cleaner has suck- WASHER I I Hl|jH Preferred «Above All Other J” 1 i (JM|n| Washing Machines by i| ffll" |ill Washington Housewives Terms Arranged SMALL WEEKLY OR MONTHLY V PAYMENTS Let Us Do Your Wash Free —ln yo«r home and prove the superiority O HI of this remarkable electric Washing Machine.

FILM ANI VAUDEVILLE OPENINGS **TI e Go d Rush,” the long-awaited Chaplin picture, stood ’em up at L.,e s Columbia all day yesterday, much to the quiet merriment of Manager Mark Gates, and probably will continue to do so for the leniainder of the week. T&ki.g all past Caapliniana into consideration, “The Gold Rush is undoubtedly the most unusual picture the premier cinema come of tne woild has ever made. It is not all fun—in fact, at some p in the vu.ticie, the comedy seems almost incidental —but what ti.cre is of comedy is the best the screen affords. When the first subtitle an nounced the film to be a tale of the ukon rush, we leaned back and aid, ‘Oh! A burlesque of the ep.c pi tu.es!” But wi.en Charlie scurried madly about a log cabin, trying to escape the last bullet from a gun for the possession of which Mack Swain and »Tom Murray were struggling, We had forgotten the thought of burlesque. And when the starv ing prospectors, Chrrlle and Mack, made Thanksgiving dinner off a boiled shoe, we didn’t care whether the French ever paid up. "The Gold Rush” is a strange mixture of comedy and pathos, describing the adventures of this lonely, little man, braving the Alaskan winter without an over coat and finally making good. Chaplin is older. His black curls are streaked with gray, and his face, in repose, is sad and thoughtful. He took his time in making “The Gold Rush,” and the comedy profits by this leisurely’, systematic process. Chaplin has brought the art of panfomime to its highest mark on the screen, and is never so funny as when he expresses ideas not by subtitles or by acrobatics, but by almost im perceptible changes of his fea tures, by the movement of his ■hands and feet. He is the only screen comedian we have ever seen who can change his entire bearing, investing himself with a new and alien character, by rais ing his eyebrows and flourishing his cane. Because of the length of the feature picture, which did not by any means seem long, all inci dentals were omitted from the program. A very acceptable mu sical score accomjianies the pic ture.—J. R. PALACE— Pola Negri. Featuring Pola Negri in “Flower of Night,” the Palace The ater presents one of its best sea son’s programs. The story, writ ten especially for the Polish star by Joseph Hergesheimer, is slim, indeed, for her talents, but it abounds in much that has made hKr famous and is pef-haps the best tiling she has done since “Passion.” “Flower of Night” is a tale of California in the gold rush days. Where there is murder, there is a vigilance committee and jus tice; where there is love, there is hate and jealousy, and of such elements is the story made. Carlotta, daughter of a once wealthy Mexican, inherits her fa ther’s hatred for the Americano pigs who have supposedly swin- died h m out of his mine.. But when the real American comes along, the girl’s mind is changed, and she loves with all the fire and passion of her race. How ever, the man she loves believes her one of the dance hall women, and ignores her. Then it is that the question of the ownership of the mine enters and Carlotta, turn between love and hate for her man, orders him out. True tv his type, he refuses to leave. A fight ensues, her lover is wounded and the girl drags him safety, 'but still he does not believe in her. However, photo plays must end happily, so it is really useless to tell the rest. Needless to say, Miss Negri -Works hard and accomplishes her purpose, and a welcome new lead ing man is found in the person age of Youcca Troubetzkoy, a tall and handsome Russian. War ner Gland plays the heavy, and others in the cast are Joseph Ipowling, Helen Worthing and ’lSulalie Jensen. x Not least of the program are the the subsidiaries. The com edy, “The Caretaker’s Daughter,” is rich. Pathe contributes a Re view and Newsreel, which in clude some interesting pictures of the navy, scenes in an. Italian grotto and other up-to-date sub jects. Inspired by the theme of t»ie feature picture, the orchestra plays selections from "Carmen” for an overture, very appropriate •nd pretty. Topics of the Day also has its place in a long and voluminous bill.—E. L. P. JIIALTO— -•Phantom of the Opera.” “The Phantom of the Opera.” with Lon Chaney playing the title role, started its second week’s en gagement at the Rialto Theater yesterday afternoon, before large audiences. This grim tale of the under ground cellars of the Paris Opera House affords Chaney one of the best opportunities of his career and with his usual brilliant con ception. he takes advantage of them, giving us a performance that stamps him a master of his art. Production, cast and plot have been commented upon in these col umns. The excel’ence of the cast supporting Chaney, the magnifi cence with which the picture is presented and the gripping inter est of the story, require no de tailed description here. It’s a great picture, and as such reflects credit upon producer, actors and director. The operatic prologue from •Faust” is also held over this week. This offering features Miss Nina Norman, John Smith and Tandy MacKenzie, and constitutes one of the most pleasing novelties presented by Mischa Guterson this season. The singers possess sweet voice of range and beauty, and were round’y applauded. The Rialto Orchestra selects the finite from Tsoha-kowskv’s “Fourth Symphony” for the eon cert overture, and the choice proves a most agreeable one to the lover of good music well placed. _ metropolitan— The Freshman.” Harold Lloyd has done better pictures than "The Freshman,” '•nd this may be admitted at the start, but ft doesn’t alter the fact that the present production is funny and riotously so. It has •a plot that is familiar enough to the drama, concerning a sap who finally wins through to the more or less —mostly less —esteem of his fellow human critters. The present picture also works up to a very satisfactory climax blending humor and pathos in a peculiarly Chaplinesque manner. Laughter is a rare commodity in this gray world and we can do no better than advise the downhearted and gloomy to take a dose of Lloyd at the Metropoli tan this week, where the produc tion is entering the last half of a fortnight run. AA Aesop Fable cartoon picture and ’an unusually snappy news film are shown also. Daniel Breeskin’s Metropolitan Orchestra plays a medley of campus airs as an overture. W. B. KEITH’S— Annette Kellerman. Frankly, the seasoned vaude ville goer _ won’t find much to chqer about at Keith’s this week. All the acts are fairish, but none of Them stand out. In short, its just a vaudeville bill —although the standing room audience seemed pleased enough. Annette Kellerman, the peren nially perfect thirty-six, performed some marvellously graceful water stuff, and also did a lot of set ting up exercises strongly rem iniscent of our army days. She apologized, beforehand, that \they might be tiresome. The apology is accepted. She is assisted by a dark-haired boy with lots of mag netism and a blonde chap. She said they were her grandsons. By and large, our honest opinion is that first honors should go to a youngster placed, ingloriously, second on the bill. He is young “Jerome,” perhaps fourteen years old. He does* impersonations and ’does them well. He has the man nerisms of all the popular stars he imitates down to the last quavering sob in Al Jolson’s latest “Mammy” song.’ Rosemary and Marjory have a lovely setting for some old-time sorters. One sings contralto, the other high soprano. Hal Neiman billed as “one of the four horsemen” and thus making 592 by latest count, does a mono logue that is reminiscent both of Ed Wynn, and the late Bert Savoy. But it was funny. Al and Fanny Stedman in “piano capers” started off at a pace so fast few people out front could understand what they were* saying—or singing. You just’ had to watch them go through the motions'. But they slowed down much to the delight of the audience, and finished strong. Jean Bedini seen many times here, did some new juggHng stunts and then wound up with a review, aided by other folks on the bill. Much of the review was lifted bodily from offerings made here in bygone years at the Gayety. The Kiewnings opened the bill with a brief but thrilling act on the trapeze and the News Pic- torial closed it.—VIC. O. EARLE— Vaudeville-Films. The Earle, this week, presents a well ordered and diversified program, including a number of entertaining dance and comedy features. “Dance Visions,” with Chaney and Fox and Lula Win ters, leading with several solo dances, most effectively and elab orately staged, is well received. The beauty df their classical danc ing is enhanced by costuming and smart lighting effects. “Echoes of Switzerland,” by Zimmerman and Grandville, in a yodeling romance, produces some clever love songs and a num ber byway of contrast, “Charlie” and “Helen” (Se'nna and Dean) in “Charlie’s Night Out” is an amus ing skit which pleased Sunday audiences. Edith Cole, Sousa’s harpist, gives several selections, augmenting a “Cartoonical Mu sical Revue,” with Don Austin as cartoonist. Lydia Barry, lyrical recon.teuse, seems popular in her repertoire of songs and stories while Bobby Barker and company present “Husbands Three,” a mu sical farce. The feature film, producing Harold Bell Wright’s latest novel, “A Son of His Father,” features Bessie Love, Warner Baxter, Ray mond Hatton, “Charles Stevens and others in an exceedingly good Western picture.—L. K. STRAND— VaudeviUe-Fi’ms. Headed by a charming "sister” act, a good array of vaudeville acts, and supplemented by an interesting picture, the program at the Strand this wek is a most attractive one. Marcus Sisters and the Carlton Brothers, assisted by Don Armand, win honors in what they term a comedy classique danoe revue. While the offering does not quite live up to its pretentous title, it serves as a splendid medium to introduce some very pretty and graceful dancing, with just a dash of comedy. Gus King, heard and seen in “Melody Land,” has a novelty musical number that is very good. His selectiohs range from jazz to classic ahd each number Is well played Bob Yates and Evelyn Carson introduce themselves in a comedy skit; entitled “Getting Soaked.” The lines are bright and the performers are clever enough to take advantage of the opportun'ty they offer Elly, a juggler of ability per forms stunts in an brig nal man ner. West, Gages and W?st kept the audience in agreeable humor with a witty mixture of songs and cpmedy. The "Girl Who Wouldn’t Work,” featuring Lionel Barrymore, tells a powerfupl story of love’ and ad venture revolving about the for tunes of a girl who longed for the butterfly tilings of life. There is a good program of music by THE WASHINGTON TIMES ’'ky* fay' At the left Adele Astaire, of the Dancing Astaires, and, also, quite a bewitching little actress in her own right. She’s in “Lady Be Good” now at the National Theater. Left, Zella Russell, last seen here in “The Lady in Ermine” and now helping emphasize Harry Morton’s comedy in the musical giant, “The Love Song,’ at Poli’s. A MAGNIFICENT SHOW “THE LOVE SONG” By HAROLD PHILLIPS. A play of the greatest imaginable beauty in voice and story setting is “The Love Song,” which opened at Poli’s Sunday night for a week’s run. Nothing in years has bettered it and to those who whine for the vocal pretenders of the olden days— The Merry Widow,” for instance—l would say, “Dry .those tears you naughty folk, Santa Claus is back at the old stand.” For a really inspiring and magnetic night in the theater “The Love Song” recommended with every ounce of the vigor I was noted for in my gymnasium days. Not to see it, if you can possibly get down to Poli’s, is to snub a'rose in the desert. the Strand Orchestra under the direction of Arthur Manville. AMBASSADOR— “HeadIines.” A newspaper drama that re flects with accuracy the actual business of newspaper making as It is known to the real newspaper man is “Headlines,” being shown at Crandall’s Ambassador The ater the first two days of this week with Alice Joyce in the stellar role. There is not a single reporter who dashes about with a notebook ‘in one hand and a pencil in the other. Incredible, isn't it? “Headlines” ’deals principally with the matter of what consti tutes news. When scandal reaches out for the “sob sister” on the big metropolitan paper, the city •editor refuses to keep it off the front page, because it is news, and sentiment has nothing to do with it. The fact that the writer’s daughter was threatened with so cial destruction only added to the news value of the “break.” But then came the climax, and it would be unfair to all concerned to divulge the character of the document. x Alice Joyce is the pivotal fig ure in this excellently produced, directed and acted photodrama, and Virginia Lee Corbin has a particularly effective role as the typical little flapper who jeop ardizes the happiness of many without' knowing what it is all about. t The comedy element is supplied ■by a new Aesop Fable, “W ildcats of Paris,” and the bill is rounded out by added short reels and pipe organ accompaniment. TIVOLI— Thomas Meighan. Thomas Meighan can boast dis tinguished authorship rar his lat est Paramount release, “The Man Who Found Himself,” being shown as chief feature of an ex cellent entertainment at Cran dall’s Tivoli Theater the first two days of this week. The story is written especially for Mr. Meig han by Booth Tarkington. "The Man Who Found Him self” is a tale of the prisons. The t star is cast as a good-for-nothing son of a prominent banker. The bank goes to smash and the banking members of the family are held criminally responsible for the failure. Rather than per- I init his father to bear the onus of trial and a term in the pen itentiary, Tom Macauley assumes the blame and takes the sentence to Sing Sing. After that you may write your own ticket. CENTRAL— “Wizard of Oz.” When the famous comic team of Montgomery and Stone first came up to the musical comedy stage from the circus lots, through burlesque and vaudeville, the ve- 1 hide which brought them itnmed- late success was “The Wizard of Oz,” a fanciful thing in which the leading characters were the Scarecrow and the Tin Wood man. Fred Stone appeared as the. Scarecrow and wore a make- up that it took him some two hours a hnl! to get The olte ve Montgomery x T’n W »od non and wn”o a suit stovepipe! i “The Wizard of Oz” now com mands public attention again as a featurelength screen comedy Larry Semon n the role created by Fred Stone. It Is the fore most feature of the bill at Cran dall’s Centra. Theater the first i two days of this week. The lure of the music and the chorus is t lacking, necessarily, but that does I not militate seriously against the complete sucess of the genial bit i of imaginative creation as excel lent screen diversion. Footlight Hostesses The piece is laid in the second French Empire and is based on the minor amours of the com* poser, Jacques Offenbach, and his ultimate passion for the Empress Eugenie. From that three line sketch you might deduce that we have fairly ponderous biography with juries separating the chapters. Nothing of the sort. The story is adroitly incidental to the magnificent musical score, ar ranged from Offenbach’s com positions; 4iterally, a tale in melody interpreted by a battal ion of exquisite singers. Mountains of work undoubt edly went into the selection of the large chorus. It is exactly a chorus in the sense that it is a singing ensemble. There are fifty or more mixed voices in this background. The volume can be imagined but the har mony cannot without a visit; a visit worth anyone’s time. There are twenty-four num bers and the reprise number “Remember Me” will most likely start a heavy run on the Offen bach sheets and records. “He Writes A Song” was a novelty gem in quartet arrangement. It is evident that the cream of Offenbach’s compositions have been selected by the adapter, B. Smith «and it, is in this quality that “The Love Song” towers mightily above “Blossom Time” for it puts re liance for appeal on bulky qual ity rather than upon one or two outstanding numbers. The Shuberts have dressed the piece on a lavish and colorful scale and if J. J. Shubert super vised among other things the casting, he has demonstrated anew a peerless showmanship. Allan Prior, who sings the role of Offenbach, is difficult to recall previously, but stich a voice as his would most certain ly not be forgotten if it had once before been heard. On the other hand, where, and again, where has such an admirably gifted voice been harboring it self? Uniquely enough, and rare. Prior combines distinct acting grace with his natural attainments. Others in the first rank of vocalists are Evelyn Herbert and Charlotte Wodruff. Miss Woodruff’s appeal is decidedly in the duet scenes, while Miss LECTURES DR.

M utuaj. ‘Chick Chick’: a Th. rs. Nite—Wrestling JOE TURNER VS. PETE ttHKO J you’ve turned to 1 Studebaker trade for one to-day MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1925. THAT BROADWAY PET, “LADY BE GOOD” "Lady Be Good" is a preferred buy in the musical comedy market. It has several of George Gershwin’s most ingratiating tunes, it has Fred and Adele Astaire to lead its dancing, Walter Catlett with a new bag of wise cracks, a prancing ensemble that has no use for stockings, various clever supernumaries and not enough of a story to detract from the fun. These ingredients have been woven into a fast moving aml. tuneful entertainment ranked with the best to bow into Washington this season. The lissome apd pert Adele Astaire is developing a flair for comedy that blends delightfully with her remarkable dancing. There was a time when the blithe Adele was just a dancer, albeit a good one. Now she can deliver lines quite effec tively and account for her share of the laughs. With her brother Fred, the Astaires are a dancing team close to the top. Walter Catlett as a shyster lawyer, breezes through the two acts dropping in his wake a flock 1 of jokes generally new with a few that are decrepit and bag ging in the knees, but still funny. So what of it? It is some time since Gerald Oliver Smith, the former Gar rick stock favorite has cavorted on a Washington stage. -In “Lady Be Good" he is ideally cast as a dull-witted English gentleman and makes the most of a part that none could play better. Bill Bailey and Barney Barnum, a banjo strumming team monopolized a minute of ONE GOOD DEED PLUS FLORIDA’S BOOM When $1,200 and a goodly por tion of the milk of human kind ness brings in a return of $75,- 000, it’s a pretty good interest on the milk. At least, that is the opinion of Peggy Kelly, one of the young actresses who accom panied Gloria Swanson’s company to New Martinsville, W. Va., to make scenes for the star’s com ing Paramount picture, "Stage Struck.” For Peggy, if her luck holds, is going to have $75,000 pretty soon and, if the prices of Florida land keep on mounting, perhaps more. i Several years ago Peggy had la. dressmaker, Marie Milland. They were close friends as well .as dressmaker and patron, so when Miss Mi ya nd became tn mid lhe doctor -ordered her to Saranac she confided in Peggy. She had no money, but she had a tract., of land in Florida, which had qost her a few hundred dollars and which had been laid out in forty lots. This land was near the gulf coast, not far from St Peters burg. The dressmaker thought that if she could get $1,200 it would be enough topay her' expenses, and she asked Peggy to buy the land. Peggy hadn’t that amount, but she managed to raise it and bought the property. Miss. Milland went to Saranac and died there. The Florida land boom arrived. Aqd while Peggy was at New Martinsville she had a communication from the agents in whose nands she had placed the property, saying that they had sold fifteen of the forty lots for approximately $2,800 a lot. If they get the same price for the remaining tots—and they are holding them for higher prices—Peggy will net $75,000. And when she gets the money she’s going to give a- party to all the people who were in the company at New Martinsville be cause that’s where she received the good news.

MfTI A.” stands for tested and X approved. The Good House keeping Institute List of Tested and Approved Devices is seldom given its full title at the institute. We have acquired the nabit of referring to it as the “T. A.” The in stitute has recently completed the yearly revision of this list, and it has been no small task, for a letter had to go to th* manufacturer of every device listed, to find out if any change had been made in his product during the year. There are new models in vacuum cleaners and washing machines as well as in motor cars. The institute must re test all new models and other de vices that have been changed ma terially before these are given a place on the revised list. This year ly revision assures for the pur chaser an up-to-date buying guide. Eut the “T. A.” is much more thar. that. It carries the assurance that every device listed has been tested and approved by an unbiased laboratory, intent only on doing for the housekeeper what she could not possibly do herself. Women are acknowledged to be keen buyers. Knowing the require ments for the products they set out to purchase, shopping experience soon gives them a good idea of rela tive qualities and ranges in price for food, clothing and other prod ucts as frequently bought. This does not apply' to household equip ment, however, as a range, a re frigerator, or even a griddle, lasts too long for purchasers to gain any experience in selecting such prod ucts. There a>v also technical questions, affecting the efficiency of the larger pieces of equipment especially, that can be judged only when the equipment is tested out by specialists having every facility for determining those qualities that make for good service. Each mem ber of the testing staff of the in stitute is a specialist in- the tech nical testing of certain types of equipment or in testing each type under home conditions. How can any purchaser tell, just by looking at it. whether or not she can count on the oven of any range to reach baking tempeia tures in a reasonable time, or whether there is even heat distri bution in the oven so that the food will not be burnt on one side and underdone on the other? To the av erage purchaser there can be no great difference in any two vacuum cleaners as she watches them being run across a rug for a given time.

For the woman buying any h° us hold equipment cur List of Tested and Approved Devices carries an important message from the in stitute. It is a list of devices that have measured up to testing stand ards that were long in the making before being finally adopted. It is, therefore, a record of achievement and might well be a Who’s Who” in household equip ment. It carries the names of manufacturers that are recognized leaders in their field. Since a substantial percentage nr all the devices tested at the Ins.i tute is disapproved, and since ar large proportion of the poorer prod ucts offered for sale never reaches the institute, our Tested and Ap proved List in all probability rep resents the better half of all the household equipment offered to. sale on American markets. The institute is more than a test ing laboratory. Owing to the co operation of the manufacturers whose devices are finally approved, improvements are made on tpj 11 devices as a result of institute tests. Recommendations as to bet ter insulation used for the oven of an electric range were recently adopted, making it possible for us approve this device. As a result of recommendations made to the manufacturer of another heating device a short time ago, a new model has been returned to us for retest, greatly improved. Among other changes, the location for the connecting cord was changed to a position just beneath the handle, so that the handle could be grasped to keep the device in place, when pulling out the connecting plug, thus avoiding any danger of burnt fingers. We have recently been asked to co-operate with a manu facturer in working out a satisfac tory catch for the doors of kitchen cabinets. In co-operation with the United States Bureau of Standards we are at present working on the problem of making available a standard measuring cup which will insure more uniform results in home cookery. These few cases are representative of an institute serv ice that contributes in a valuable way to our List of Approved De vines.. The responsibility of the insti tute does not Ify any means end with testing of devices. All house keepers who select a piqce of equip ment, large or small, from ‘the T. A.” are entitled to complain to the institute if the device does not give good service foY a reason able length of time. And they do. Sometimes it means sending the purchaser clearer directions for the proper use of the device. Women are not mechanical spe. lalists. They need definite instructions for using modern equipment to advan tage. If we cannot solve the dif ficulty, we report the complaint directly to the manufacturer and follow it through to a final settle ment. Many letters of apprecia tion from housekeepers testify to this. It may mean the replace ment of a broken part, or some ether necessary servicing that the owner did not know how to se cure. Modern industry makes it difficult for the consumer to bring such problems to the manufac turer.'

An important sequel to this story would be the extent to which these devices are giving a service in proportion to the effort and money invested in them.

Teaching Young Children Perhaps you and your neighbor have come to the point where you almost despair of ever teaching your children to play together nicely. Your neighbor’s little girl and your young son are probably delighted to see each other on every occasion at first meeting. However, they will not be playing together five minutes before they will be fighting and crying, both ■wanting the same toy at the same time. Finally, after much scold ing, talking and great loss of time, peace will be restored for anothqj five or ten minutes. Here is a suggestion that may help you in solving such a diffi culty. Take an hour every morn ing, preferably from ten to eleven, and teach them how to play, your neighbor taking one morning and you the ritext. The one in charge settles all their little dificulties, teaches them to take turns with their toys, and usually takes them for a short walk. You will find this plan a success and beneficial to all concerned.

They suggest that apples should be eaten, not only because they are good to c"t. but are good for our health t well. Apples richly deserve their place as a staple fruit almost the whole year around. Whether eaten cooked or raw, they provide at a r low cost sources of the vltamines B and C. Os course, they should be eaten only in a ripe condition, when the mild stimulation, which they exert on the intestinal wall, may be very beneficial. If the fruit is un ripe, the excess amount of cellulose and acid is apt to irritate the in testines and thus prolong digestion. So store away plenty of apples for your family*s use. And even if nothing more, keep your fruit bas kets replenished. The choice of apples for cooking purposes is important. If they are to be pared, the outward appear ance of the raw fruit is not of great importance: but if the apples are to be baked in their skins, a bright red variety of good flavor and very firm texture is best. Every housekeeper serves baked apples occasionally, but seldom realizes that there are many other equally as appetizing apple dishes. Here are a few from our readers: For Canadian Club Deep Dish Apple Pic—Peel and core six apples. Cut each into eight pieces and arrange in a deep, greased baking idlsh. Cover the apples with one-half cupful of cleaned, seeded raisins. Then cover all with a mixture pf the grated rind of one lemon, one-half cupful of sugar nad one-half teaspoonful of nutmeg. Cover the pie with pastry, using one cupful of pastry flour and one third cupful of shortening as the basis. Bake in a hot oven of 450 degrees F. for forty minutes, reduc ing the heat to 400 degrees F. the last ten minutes. This recipe serves six. Fruit Rifig Salad makes a de lightful dessert for the winter months when lettuce is scare and expensive. Pare and core three oranges. Slice the apples and oranges crosswise Mto thin rings. I',.

DONALD LOWRIE’S STORY New and Amazing Serial Describes Ont Man’s Long But Losing Battle for Freedom I SAT there looking at his letter indifferently. I knew I had the ability to get plenty of work along my lines, and didn’t rare particularly about having been “fired.” What I was Concerned about, and what I dreaded more than words Can express, was meeting and trying to "square” myself with Mildred I didn’t see t how she could possibly forgive I me, or even overlook my conduct J Without forgiveness. Maudlinly I found myself wishing I were dead: nor did I pull myself out of that mood until Hicks ret urned and mixed up a couple of fiery drinks. While drinking I had always tried to avoid meeting anyone for X whom I cared, but that morning. afte- Hicks mixed three or four drinks of so-called whisky for me, I decided to go home and “have 5 It over with.” Z I had been away eight days Z without communicating with Mil dred. and. as nearly as J could calculate, had spent all my sav» tegs.

But in spite of all "these set backs and causes for worry, the thought of facing Mildred was J the paramount ordeal. I wanted to dodge it. but knew I couldn’t; •so drank as much as I could stand without becoming visibly T intoxicated, in order to get up “Dutch” courage. When I told Hicks of my intention of going home that morning he tried to dissuade me. “It’s Sunday. Wait until to zZ morrow,” he urged. "We’ll slow up today and be all right tomor- J tow. I’ve got my wife to make explanations to. but it’s going ~to be tomorrow morning for mine. Come on stay With me till to morrow.” One Regret For a wonder, I remained firm Ite my resolve. Half an hour litter I got off a Bryan street car near our place, and a moment j later I was in the house. To my great rel’ef, Mildred was not three.

Os course, a great revulsion of feeling swept over me as I gazed Into Dennie’s confident brown eyes and listened to hie talk. Just as soon as I could I retired to my own room and went to bed. I knew I was going to be sick and regretted not having brought home a bottle. While undressing ;I was seized with an awful in ‘ClinatiOn to redress and go back downtown until the next day, but conquered it. I called to Mrs. .McCulloch and asked her to tell .Mildred not -to disturb me when she came home. I Wanted to gain time. I wanted to put off seeing her as long as I could. Reaction from the poisonous Muff I had been swilling for a week set in almost at onee. I be came violently ill and was obliged to call Mrs. McCulloch into the room. She wanted to send for a doctor, but I eaid no. Then Mil dred returned. She came in and heard the tail end of the talk about the doctor. “No, never mind the doctor,” she said to Mrs. McCulloch. “If he wants one he'll ask for him. Just let him lie there.” She passed out of the room without speaking to me at all, Mrs. Mc- Culloch following. I rapidly grew worse and was in the throes of acute nausea, with Intermittent vomiting.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1925. AMVIHW6 iXLI TECHGRID TITLE AT STAKE Central Will Meet Champions in Game at Central Stadium Tomorrow By ROSS CQNKLIN They are going to match the tortoise against the hare tomor row afternoon in the Central High School stadium. And on the out come of the meeting between the two will hinge the high school football championship. It will be a case of Central’s vaunted speed and agility against Technical’s demonstrated power and strength. It will be a case ■of the elusive against the im movable; Central’s fleet backs or Tech’s stodgy linemen. Les sening no whit the confounding angles of the case is the long standing rivalry between the two schools. -z—- Central and Tech have been meeting each other for twenty years. They have made a city wide reputation for scrappy, bitter, football games. No matter how strong the one, the other will al ways battle with a booming zest. Central met and defeated West ern high school 17 to 0. Fourteen of those points' were scored on in tercepted passes and recovered fumbles. George Roberts kicked a pretty field goal from the 30-yard line for the other three points. Technical ran up 14 points against Business and those two .touchdowns were scored only after 'hard, tedious line plunging. Central’s fast backs may run ragged on the Tech wings. Their forward passing game may completely fool the Manual Trainers. Robert’s excellent punting may cause the Tech backs to fumble. That is the Blue and White aid* bf the question. Balancing that is Tech’s line of rangy, heavy and fair ly well experienced players. Tech's fame is cracking the line, a process that much time and inexhaust ible energy. But it’s sure and it’s devastating on the other fellow. Hardell, Tech coach, can be re lied upon to furnish a neat trick or two. And there is no coach in the city who can better whip his men into shape for a "croocial” .game There is much explosive energy in the manual trainer’s mentor and he has an uncanny knack of im parting fighting spirit into his teams. Tech is the champion. Last year the Rhole Island avenue in stitution defeated or tied every opponent. They did that with a team on which there was only one veterpn, Gordon Kessler. That young man and his generalship is missing. A hard game such as is certain to follow a Tech-Central meeting may defeat Central. The Blue and White has no substitutes to speak of. and any casualties that may re sult will weaken the team far be yond the danger point. Captain Wilner is p’aying with a broken ■wrist. He shouldn't be in the game but there is no one to take his Place High hool fans who see the game may be treated to a punting duel of p; rts Central has found that an educated toe is a wicked weapon, especially if the opposing team ir not so equipped. Roberts can outkick most of the scholastic punters and his ends cover well. But it’s anybody’s game. Nothing counts for anything when the an nual Central-Tech football game roll« around. The game is set for 3:15 in th a stadium. WASHINGTON GOIFpLAY FIRST ROUND IS OVER Players competing for the cham yioship of the Washington Golf and Country Club concluded the first round of the title fight. Martin R. West and George T. Howard were the winners in the last pair. They defeated O. C. Murray and Henry D. Cashman. Roger Coombs and Charles H. Doing, jr.. won their matches in the second round. Three Stand On Top Dartmouth, Army and Pennsyl vania look like the strongest elevens in the east thus far this season. LAUREL RACES laurel, Maryland FIRST RACE.. 1:45 P. M.

Denny Sothern, another star halfback, has an injured leg and Shorty O’Con nell. fullback and star kicker, is being examined for a broken nose. Besides these several others have minor hurts. All of which might indicate that the Mohawks had to fight for their victory. The Marines put up a struggle to the last whistle. Mutt Egan was the hero of the Mohawks’ first score. He blocked a punt on the Marines’ 15-yard line, recovered it and waded to a touchdown. To score the other touchdown, the Mohawks completed two for ward passes, Co’.lfeqp to Riley and Colliere to Sothern, that put the ball on the 5-yard mark, whence Sothern carried it over. Eddie Tryon Stars Eddie Tryon. Colgate’s grid cap tain, defeated Princeton almost by himself Saturday. It was due to his kicking and running that the Tigers were humbled in that final quarter. Tryon leads the country’s scoring record, having made 88 points for Colgate already this sea son. Preps Win It The Southern Preps had a tough game on their hands when they met the St. Stephen’s eleven. They walked away with a 12 to 0 game, and they were tickled to get it.

The var sity football team will travel to Syracuse to meet the Syracuse University eleven; the soccer team will head for a like destination to face the Syracuse hooters; while the freshman grid team will go to Pittsburgh to play the University of Pittsburgh yearlings. The cross country team will be idle. With the football and soccer teams at Syracuse wijl be a large delegation of Penn State student rooters and the famous military band. A year ago when Syracuse came to State College for the Alumni day battle, more than 1,000 Orange students were in the stands to root for the New York ers, and the Penn State under graduates hope to return the com pliment this week. All told, it will be Penn State week-end at Syracuse. The absence of the usual Uni versity of Pennsylvania game this fall has caused the students to se lect some other away-from-home contest to attend, and a great many have chosen the Syracuse game because of the strong friend ly rivalry that has developed be tween the two institutions. Penn State and Syracuse meet in prac tically every line of sport and each institution seems to have a warm regard for the other. Os course, the greatest number of students will attend the Thanks giving Day game with the Uni versity of Pittsburgh in the lat ter’s new stadium. A goodly num ber will also take in the West Vir ginia game at Morgantown on No vember 14. Due to rigid scholas tic requirements, most of the Penn State students cannot afford to make more than one trip a season, although some of them risk the "tuts” and go anyhow.

MUHLENBERG IS NEXT FOR LEHIGH Coach Wendell “Satisfied” With Showing Made Against Rutgers BETHLEHEM, Pa.. Oct. 26.—" Sa tisfied,” as he expressed it, with the work of his brown-clad chances ir the Rutgers game, Coach Wendell has turned a wary eye toward Al lentown, whence Benfer’s Muhlen berg warriors will sally forth next. Saturday confident of avenging last year’s 5-to-3 defeat. The Cardinal hopes are built around the. flashy BoreMi, a young Italian who nearly defeated Lehigh single handed last year and who has shown up brilliantly in all the early games This year. It is rumored c round Allentown that more than the ordinary hope for a victory over their traditional rivals is an imating the Cardinal grid men this year, and that a win on the grid iron next Saturday might win for Muhlenberg the new stadium that has long been their dream. Coach Wendell is far from under standing the strength of the Allen tonians, and has mapped out an entirely new series of offensive plays to spring on Taylor Field this week. His defensive drill is beihc bas&d on the assumption that if Eorelli can be stopped and his spec tacular forward passes rendered harmless, the brown and white back field can be relied upon to pile up sufficient yardage to maintain Le high’s record of the qeasonS- The Lehigh scrubs have been drilled in tpe Muhlenberg plays, and the varsity squad, all of whom wit nessed the Lafayette-Muhlenberg game earlier in the season, are con fident that the much-heralded 50- yard passes of Borel 11 will ‘‘fall or. barren ground.” The new flood lights which have just been installed were lighted on Taylor Field this afternoon for the signal drill. Coach Wendell has made no shift on his line, except that Bill Littrell, a big tackle who recently recuperated from an attack of typhoid fever, was given a work out with the varsity. A number of second-string backs, including Hand. Simes, Mullaney and Stevens, were also worked out this afternoon. Both Parks Useful Boston’s big league baseball parks are not idle these days. Braves' field is used by the Boston College football eleven for all its games and the soccer players perform at Fenway Paark, home of the Red Fenway Park, hums of Red LOOKING'EM over W WITH LOUIS A. DOUGHER BIG THREE SHRINKS A BIT. EDDIE TRYON, with his Colgate eleven, brought down the last of the so-called Big Three last Saturday when he practically won the game himself at the Palmer Stadium, 9- to 0. It took a long, long time for the barbarians from the hinterlands to achieve then object, but at last they have succeeded in knocking Yale, Harvard and Princeton quite out of the running in a single season. In other vears one or even two of the so-called Big Three have been smashed and cast aside, but the other still stood like a tall, straight pine in the forest, with head raised to the majestic skies. Today the Big Three resembles rag weeds, more or less, and nobody worries much. Holy Cross was the first to knock off the Critnson. Pennsylvania s bril liant eleven humbled Yale. The Navy battled the Princeton Tigers to a. tie, .10 to 10. Then came the end. Harvard men insisted that Holy Cross was fortunate in winning at Cambridge, 7 to- 6, and Prince tonians admitted that Shapley’s great playing prevented a Certain Princeton victory. Yale never offers alibis, an excellent trait among the Elis. But, if Holy Cross had been lucky, what.. about Dartmouth Oberlander and his wild men from the hills of New Hampshire ran rough-shod over the Crimson, scoring five touchdowns as against one touchdown and a field goal. Shapley’s brilliant individual work may have prevented a Princeton victory at Baltimore, but what did Princeton have to stop the equally brilliant Eddie Tryon, of Colgate? Nothing,and so Colgate won, 9 to 0, the Tigers being the last of the so-called Big Three to crumble before the assault of the barbarians from the hinterlands. The end is not yet, either. Next Saturday the husky, veteran eleven representing the Army marches out upon the gridiron of the Yale Bowl and many be lieve Yale in for another whip ping. Then come trooping along Maryland, Princeton and Harvard, each a dire threat .to the Bulldog. Harvard has little William and Mary for this week, but then come Princeton, Brown, and Yale, with danger promised in every .game. Princeton has a breathing spot this week with Swarthmore before going up against Harvard and Yale. The Tigers seem doomed to lose at least one more game this season. The so-called Big Three sure has shrunk considerably with the years. Two Big Games Coming TWO big intersectoinal football games are coming this week, Illinois battling Pennsyl vania at Franklin Field and the Naval Academy eleven going up to Ann Arbor for a crack at Yost’s powerful Michigan eleven. Each should be a contest worth remembering. Illinois has the colorful Red Grange, America’s greatest ice man, but Pennsylvania has a foot ball eleven quite the best in many years. It is a fair wager that the Quakers will stop Grange just as much as did Nebraska and Michigan. Penn’s victories over Yale and Chicago were clean-cut in every particular and Illinois seems in for a beating. The result of the Michigan- Navy contest, though, seems shrouded in mystery. The Wol verines played brilliantly to win from Illinois, getting the edge bv a single field goal. The Middies were equally dazzling in battling Princeton to a tie, 10 to 10. A minor intersectional game is booked for Atlanta where Georgia Tech meets Notre Dame. Alabama took the polish City club’s first monthly smoker of the season. Both boys are reported in fine condition and are expected to put up a lively exhibition. In addition to this contest there will be shorter bouts between Washing son and Baltimore boxers.

WALSH International News Service Sports Editor ITHACA, N. Y., Oct. 26. “We’re rotten,” said Mr. z Dobie, without parley, -preamble or de bate. One of these times, some team is going to beat Cornell by a score of 56 to 0 and Mr. Dobie will be substantiated in every re spect. With good will toward all and favor toward none, the writer hopes this condition of affairs will transpire with all due haste. He has become a bit wearied of Mr. Dobie’s phobia, so to speak. As a matter of fundamental fact. Cornell is neither good nor gosh awful. It is just like a young man trying to get along. Os the eleven men who start a football game up this way, seven are sophomores. Mr. Dobie, with his customary eye for detail, is looking ahead. For the moment, i he has one good tackle and that is almost enough. Give Mr. Dobie a 1 tackle who knows his business on attack and you usually give him a shot-gun with the muzzle pointed in the general direction of some where. “I'm sorry I have a captain.” he i has been quoted as saying. “Other wise, I would have only ten men to pick.” This, to the writer, is so much Malarkey, in view of the fact that the captain in question is Kearney, rated as one of the best tackles in this section last year. They do say, however, that one ‘Aird would have -had Kearney's job ere this if Kearney hadn't been captain of the outfit. You can take this story for what it may be worth, or even less. The significant fact is that Kear ney has started all of the games to date with Hill as a running mate and Aird in reserve. They say that Evens, who has been hurt is another good tackle. All of those mentioned, with the exception of Kearney, are sopho- mores. Other second year men on the varsity team are Carey, guard; Rapuno, center; Courtright, end, 1 and Gassner, Butterfield, Islay, and Rosenberg, backs. By and large, they make quite a football team and Cornell, with ita usual shock-absorbing schedule, 1 should coast right along to the Pennsylvania game, where it will 1 cease to coast quite abruptly and 1 without further notice. 1 1 Dobie expects to lose to Penn- sylvania this year, which is i' nothing unusual- He expects to j lose to everybody and sometimes i he is right. However, the chances i are good at this moment that i Cornell will not lose by three touchdowns as it did in 1924, in spite of the ineligibility of Mo- f lient, its star plunger. Its ends, Ludy and Fennell, are J experienced but not as good as the 1924 pair. The tackles are better. So are the guards, with Munns, the best man in the center of the 1924 line, still holding forth. Afield was a right good center last year. but the boys say he has finished' second to Hapuno thus far thi£ season. This either makes Rapuno j a remarkable center or the boys remarkable fabricators. The backfield punch is supplied J by Wesser at quarterback wjth his kicking, running and passing. He i was in the 1924 combination and I is quoted a worthy youth. Islay, Gassner, Carpenter.

THOMAS Tommy Ford, sterling second sacker, is the new manager' of Washington’s cltainpl on Union Printers’ ball team./ After five years of distinguished .service in which the team was triumphant consistently in league, independent and natipnal competition, Heiriie Webb languished the reigns of leadership.

Though still a youngster in years, Ford is a veteran ball player and for several seasons has been a star of the team. He is a heavy hitter and a clever fielder and more importantly to be con sidered now, possesses the qualifi’- cations of a leader. It was the orig|nal intention of the Typos to name Brownie Item eric, vteteran infielder, as Webb's successor because of the invaluable aid Lemeric had given Webb as his assistant strategist.

LATEST NEWS AND QUOTATIONS OF THE FINANCIAL MARKETS HEAVY BEHIND MARKS PEPCO ISSUE Recently Offered Stock Is Over-subscribed Six and a Half Times By RICHARD HATTON The final compilation of figures in the office of Treasurer Atwood M. Fisher, of the Potomac Electric Power Company, showing a total ■ubscription of $13,300,000 to the recently offered stock issue of the company, indicates that the issue was over-sut scribed approximately six and one*half times by 4.635 subscribers. In spite of the tremendous pop ularity of the stock as attested by the large number of requests for shares every legitimate subscriber received the amount of stock re quested up to five shares while all who subscribed for more than five shares were restricted to five in the allotment. According to officials of the Potomac Electric Power Company, the company is exceedingly pleased at the confidence shown by the people of Washington and vicinity in the organization, and, although it is real .zed that on a five-share allotment there is not a heavy profit to be made, there has been shown an expression of good will that cannot be measured in dollars and cents. Comment in local financial circles upon the issue and the exceedingly large over subscription by residents of the District of Columbia and territory served by the company in Maryland indicate that Washington bankers find in the result every reason for believing that the invest ing public feels secure in the future development of the city and a con tinuation of the material expansion which has been so marked a feature of the Capital in recent years. Faith In City “The figures given out in connec tion with the recent offer of pre ferred stock of the Potomac E ec trie Power Company,” said Presi dent Victor B. Deyber, of the Second National Bank, “indicate that the citizens of Washington are alive to the great possibilities in the way of expansion which lie before the capital. That there was a very large over-subscription to this issue yvould seem to be con clusive evidence that the people of W.-iahinglnn are imbued with a spirit of faith in their city as well as of confidence in the direction of our public utility corporations.” Along similar .Ines was the com ment of President Julius I. Peyser of the Security Savings and Com mercial Bank, who said: “That the people of this city understand the potential value of local investment is clearly indicated by the figures made public in connection with the sale of stock by the Potomac Elec tric Power Company. Investment in public uti.itles stock is invest ment in the future of the com munity. Washington Is not only a beautiful city to 1 ok at, but a won derful city to live in and its growth and prosperity are assured.” “The result of the recent stock issue by the Potomac Electric Power Company,” said Harry G. Meem, vice president of the Wash ington Loan and Trust Company, showing a tremendous local over subscription, is a sure indication of the belief of the people of this city in the future of the National Capi tal. Those who are anxious to in vest in the stock of our local utilities companies are actuated by their faith in the ultimate growth in population and prosperity of the territory included in the activities of the compr ny whose stock they are purchasing. This faith in the city will be born out by the de velopment of the future.” Vice President Robert I. Flem ming, of the Riggs National Bank, said: “The tremendous over-sub scription to the present issue of stock of the Potomac Electric Power Company is a splendid token of the confidence of the pub lic in the strength of the company and the integrity of able man agement and, furthermore, it is an expression of tbAi-.g, in its re- sponse to the present opportunity tt» ■-i to the stuck of the Potoiuar :if Pow-r Company very tan evidence of its belief ir. the fi. »f Washington,” said 'zl Thomas P.

I understand that practically the en tire present stock issue by the local company was subscribed in Wash ington.

EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE Clear Deck of Petty Matters That Clog District Calendar By bringing about passage by Congress of but one bill this winter the Citizens Advisory Council can prove itself of perm anent benefit to the National Capital. Though that single act should constitute the sum total of its accomplishments, the council would still have served the city well., The bill in question would broaden the powers of the Dis trict Commissioners. No lengthy arguments need be framed in behalf of the measure. Common sense is its strongest sup porter. But the measure must be pressed to a vote. Such a bill has been advocated by the District Commission ers. Members of the Senate and House District Committees and leaders in both legislative branches realize the desirability of such legislation. There may be some haggling over certain features of the proposed law. There is no question that in many respects the Commissioners could be given more authority, with advantage to the District and to Congress. Though Congress has been unusually generous in the past two sessions in allotment of time for consideration of District legislation, the District’s needs have been neglected. Insig nificant legislative matters which the Commissioners are fully competent to handle have crowded sorely needed legslation into Congressional pigeonholes. This condition will exist until tne proposed law is passed. During the past session an act of Congress was required to permit the shifting of an alley in a block where a school building was to be erected. The full legislative machinery of the Government was put into operation to grind through this petty authorization. Valuable District time was wasted and national legislation was delayed. The names of' several minor streets in Washington were changed last year to obviate confusion in addresses. In each case a special act of Congress was required. Bills were intro duced in each branch of Congress, referred to committee, con sidered, reported back to the Senate and House, placed on the calendar, called up and read, debated and finally passed. The President then was called upon to sign the bills. The mayor or town council of any village could have done as much in two minutes. Last year the family of a man buried in a Washington cemetery wished to have the body moved and reburied. The District health department was perfectly willing that the re burial should take place. Yet before the bereaved family could have its wishes carried out the ponderous legislative machinery of the nation had to be set in operation and an other special act ground out 4 Two public spirited citizens offered to the District large and beautiful forests as park areas. The gifts remained un accepted for weeks until the great mill could turn out its pitiful grist—a special act authorizing acceptance of the parks. Without special acts of Congress the District Commissioners cannot widen a street, close an unnecessary portion of a street or alley or change a curbing line. An act of Congress is neces sary to quiet title to a disputed lot. Purely civic functions which in no way affect the interests of the Federal Govern ment must await the approval of Congress. A special act of Congress was required to permit the Dis trict Commissioners to regulate the sale of milk and cream in the city of Washington. Another was needed to permit regu lation of the use of milk bottles and containers. When the Commissioners wished to change the zoning laws regarding the height of certain buildings they had to appeal to the last Congress. When the heaith department wished to amend the laws regulating dentistry and optometry it had to appeal to Congress for special acts. Such petty matters clog the District calendar in every Congress. Though relatively unimportant, they are neces sary, even though vital matters are neglected. Small wonder so many members of Congress absent themselves from the floor when the District calendar is called! Congress should free itself from these details. The District Commissioners are qualified to transact such business and should be permitted to do so. Only in this way can the busi ness of the District be quickly and efficiently handled. And, more important, only in this way can Congress devote the needed time to vital District problems. Passage of the pro posed Jaw is a real need. The Advisory Council should bend every energy toward securing enactment of the legislation and in soMoing should have the support of every District citizen.
A Glowing Opportunity .1 The Anthracite Operators* Conference has published an advertisement showing how rich the coal miners were getting before they went on strike. According to the operators’ figures, the miners earned as high as $14.33 a day. The statement did not say how many hours a day the miners worked or under what conditions. However, it did say this: “Those men who earned less than $14.00 to $8.25 a day worked only four or five days a week, due to failure to take advantage of their opportunities.” People want coal. The operators have the opportunity of their lives. Let them take advantage of this glowing opportunity and mine a little coal themselves. It might give them a new viewpoint on the problems of the miners if they went below ground and worked with bar and pick for a few days. ONCE-OVERS _ You are so imbued with the idea of making a lot of money quickly that you are not giving proper attention to your everyday job. You have heard of men who acquired fortunes in a few months making more than you expect in your entire life at the present job. So you are. disgusted with your daily job. You think it is a waste of time. Then you begin to dream and your work suffers. When you balance up those who made money fast and then lost it, with ihose who made a slower, steadier climb, the balance is in favor of slower, surer progress. Perhaps you have accumulated a little bunch of money by faithful work and slow savings and now you are tired and want to see wealth come faster. That is when you will be meat for the land sharks, the bond sellers and the get rich-quick promoters, if you don’t keep your head level. Some men are np.tural buyers and sellers, far-sighted, keen and cool in calculating. If your work has not made you this sort, watch out. Plug along at what you are accustomed to. rather than fatten the other fallow with your hard earned dollars. WASHINGTON TIMES The Village Blacksmith By Jim Ring iiiffltl II I!! II I H f BIH Ililß Rudolph|rt j* the suiQmit of his abandoned moun tain altars. APROPER GREETING Mrs. Cornelius Beeckman Dear mrs. beeckman: While visiting, I was intro duced to a young man at a friend’s home. As I was first to take leave, will you kindly tell me what I should have said in the way of acknowledging the introduction? (2) While at a party, I was Introduced to a number of people while walking around the room with the hostess. As I found this manner of introduction rath er embarrassing, would very much appreciate to know if there is a more gracious manner of be ing Introduced. G. G. WiH you permit me to correct the wording of your q'uestion? One of the first things to re member about Introductions is that the gentleman is presented to the lady. Therefore, your question should read: “A young man was presented to me.” In acknowledging an introduc tion, the phrase, “How do you do?” Is the accepted thing to say. The one who leaves first, whether the lady or gentleman, may say, if he or she wishes, “Good-by, I am very glad to have met you.” And, if especial en thusiasm Is to be registered, this addition may he made: “I hope that I am to see you again very soon.” (2) I agree withi you that it is very embarrassing to be led around the room and introduced in the manner that you de scribe. It is never good form for a hostess to do this. Instead, she should introduce yoU to some of the friends standing near her when you arrive, and not at tempt to introduce each guest to everybody in the room. The few introductions that, she makes "spreads,” and one friend intro duces another. And. also, as a matter of fact, the fact that the friends are all gathered to gether in the house of the hostess constitutes, to most hostesses and guests, an introduction. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions on etiquette submitted by readers.) Who Said It "A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.” The “hail fe’low well met” is sedom a true friend, an old Spanish proyerb declares. “A fool must now and then be right by chance.” A person who talks a great deal must necessarily at times say sorfiething worth while, Cow per affirms in “Conversions.” WASHINGTON, D. C., OCTOBER 26, 1925. DR. FRANK CRANE’S DAILY EDITORIAL Dress and Look Slender By DOCTOR FRANK CRANE A BOOK has come to me entitled “Dress and Look Slender,’’, by Jane Warren Wells. It is from the Women’s Institute of. Scranton, Pft., and I suspect that Wells is the pen-name for some one connected with that institute. But anyway, it is a good book. Everyone cannot be slen der, but everyone can look slenderer than she is. Fat is the curse of most people; it is the thing that all women dread, and this book gives some very good sugges tions on how to appear thin. It is all a matter of lines, apparently. Long, straight lines give yen, a thin and tall appearance, and cross lines make you look fat and dumpy. Dresses therefore that are planed in parallel vertical lines are best for a fleshy person. There are many tricfcs that can be played by those who want to look slender. They all depend upon optical illusion. A slender wr man may actually appear stout by failing to dress in accordance with these illusions, and conversely a stout woman can appear slender. f Attention should be directed- to all. details, such, for instance, as walking. Some people walk as though they weighed a thousand pounds, and some people are light on their feet. It is important not to let the body slump down. Exercises can be found that cultivate grace and ease of motion. It is a good plan; when you are doing the house work and nobody is around looking on, to turn on the music and do dusthig to music. It gives you grace of movement. The stout woman is warned not to stand witlr her feet apart or her arms akimbo. She should make a practice of keeping her hands comfortably in front of her. She should not cross her arms. Two fat arms can look like four, if vou are not careful. She should stretch and bend and do a number of other ex ercises to keep herself limber. She ‘Should stand up straight like a soldier. Most fat women slump down, emphasizing their fatness. They should hold the head high and the chin ufh Among necklaces, those that are slender and well-made may help a stout woman with her collar line, and slenderize her face, but heavy crystals and fat beads are liable to make her look fleshier than she is. Big folk must keep away from babyishness and learn to stand on their own two feet and look straight ahead toward the goal of slenderness. made to look more fat by heavy rings. Earrings widen the A graceful fan helps, and fat fingers are shortened and face, but they may be appropriate and graceful. LISTEN, WORLD! By ELSIE ROBINSON WILLA wants me to get out my meanest vocabularly and enow up Old Age. Willa, herself, is twenty-one. She is tall and slender and golden pink. She has wind wing* on her heels and a spring song in her throat and a com plete content with her pretty self and all other Youth. And how she does dislike Age! “Horrid, stringy, flabby, peevy old gloom s,” she snorts- “Just dodering along talking about.the days when they J~soshl i'll nevep i LeT WSELF GET 1 OLO LIKE TH AT I were kids —never thinking of any thing except themselves —afraid to take a chance—no pep. Gosh, Elsie, I wish you’d show them up.” Gladly, my dear. I dislike this Old Age slant quite as much as you do. Peevishness—stupidity— narrowness —‘flabbiness —by all means let s go after them. BUT WHERE SHALL WE BEGIN? IN OTHER WORDS. WHEN DOES OLD AGE BEGIN? These tiresome old people, with their mean little eyes and th dr dusty spirits—they were fleet merry and golden pink once, too. Willa, although you may find that fact hard to believe. And now they’re drab and sour and lazy minded? When did it hap pen? At forty? At sixty? When does this awful change come in human life? When do all the fresh, lively, wdtty young people turn into faded, stiff, gloomy old ones? THEY’RE TURNING EVERY MINUTE. YOU’RE GETTING OLD NOW, WILLA. RIGHT NOW. If your thoughts are going to be pinched and stupid when you’re old, they’re pinched and stupid NOW. undfer all your merry banter. If your spirit is going to he cramped and selfish and. suspi cious when you're old. it's that way NOW beneath your pretty manners. If you won't be able to find interest in anything but “the SAYINGS OF WISE MEN COWARDS die many times be fore their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Os all the wonders that I yet have heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing, that death a necessary end, Will come, when it will come. —Shakespeare. Belief consists tn accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief in denying them. —Emerson.
