Six Little TailOrs.

One of the most popular establishments
in the District is that of the six Little
Tailors," 941 Pennsylvania avenue This
house. which has branches in New York,
Boston, Chicago Philadelphia, Baltimore.
Pittsburg and Cleveland, is popular because
it deals fairly with the public, furnishing
the very best materials and insuring the
most perfect fitting at the lowest of prices
Its reputation is as extensive as the busi-
ness done by it in every city where it has
a branch, and during the four years 1t has
had branch in Washington its history has
been one of uninterrupted progress. The
work done by this establishment is the best
guarantee 1t gives. and its patrons desire
no other. Just now the house is making
dress suits, for instance. silk or satin lined
for $50; coats and vests for s12, and trousers
for 81. OF course, while these goods are
perfectly satisfactory to the great majori-
ty of customers. there are some who insist
upon having more expensive clothing, and
the house is fully prepared to make as eX-
pensive clothing as the tastes and wishes
of their customers demand. No who
wishes to be well attired for the holidays
should neglect to call upon the six Little
TailOrS'

Conspicuous Sidewalks Haired.

Replying 20 a request of Mr.. Fritz Reu-
ter OF 45I Pennsylvania avenue for permis-
SION 20 lay white marble sidewalk In
front Of his place Of business. the District
Commissioners state that It has been their
policy to prevent the construction OF con-
spIcUous sidewalks In advising against the
granting of the permit, the Engineer Com
missioner reported as follows to his asso-
ciaJes:
1t is not believed advisable 10 grant this
request Tor several reasons;
"A white marble sidewalk would be very
Objectionable during summer months on ac-
count of the glare of the sun.
1t has been the policy of the office for
some time past TO prevent the construction
of conspicuous sidewalks parties having
been refused permission 10 color the ce-
ment sidewalks brown. red or blue, as the
case might be. and ii is not believed ad-
Visdble 10 make exceptions.
IF The Commissioners give permission to
lay the marble walk the maintenance CT it
would devolve upon the District and IL any
cuts were made or slabs broken, the Dis
trict would be put 10 considerable expense
TO pToV!te othcr pieces of marble to patch
the remainder of the sidewalk"

EXCURSIONS.

delightful route to Mt. Vernon is by the
iron steamer Charles Manchester, built ex-
pressly for this service and heated through
out by steam, which leaves 9TH street wharf
every week day at 10 am. and :45 pm, re-
turning due to arrive at Washington at 40
and 515 pm. The sail of thirty-two miles
en- the historic Potomac gives the tourist
an opportunity to see Arlington, Alexan-
dria, Fort Foote and the most modern forti-
hcauons. Fort Washington and Sheridan
Point, and many other points of more than
ordinary Interest along the shores of Mary
land and Virginia. This is the only COM
pany permitted to sell admission tickets to
Mt. Vernon.
1t Is a very pleasant ride to Arlington and
return on the electric cars of the Washing
ION, Arlington and Falls Church line This
rs the only direct route to the beautiful ma
tloiai cemetery, and those who want to
niahe a QUICK trip without change should
take II. These cars are convenient to all
sections of the city, being reached by both
the avenue and street lines. Electric cars
ieaVe the Aqueduct bridge about every half
Church.
The steamers OF the Norfolk and Washing
ton Steamboat Company have been the ia
Vorlte route to Fortress Monroe with tray-
eiers ever since they made their initial trim
between the capital city and the seaboard.
ihe steamers of this line are the largest
IneSt vessels that have ever done service
are furnished in handsome style In their
spacious staterooms as well as in their sa-
loons. Each steamer has its own electric
nghting plant and is heated by steam ex-
clusiVeiy. Another feature which all will
appreciate is the excellent meals served on
board. One of the steamers of this line
leaves 7th street wharf every evening at
o:3o, arriving at Fortress Monroe and Nor
IoIk early the following morning.
tourists and sightseers will find the cleo
trlc trains the most interesting as well as
the most enjoyable route to Arlington and
MI. vernon They make the run to the
nome and tomb of Washington in fifty-ffve
minutes, which enables one to See Mt Yer
non thoroughly and make the entire trip
IN three hours. Stopovers should be made
at Alexandria to view the many Interesting
features of Vfrginia's first capital, notably
Christ Church. where Washington Worship
ed; the Marshall House, where Lafayette
was entertained in 1924 on his visit to
Washington's tomb, and where Col. Els
worth was killed. Electric trains leave for
MI. vernon every hour from 10 am. to
pm.

Brief Mention,
THOUGHTS OF CHRISTMAS.
The Elaborate Display of Presents mt
Parker, bridget & Co.'S.

When one thinks of Christmas presents
Tor men or boys, the mind instinctively
turIs to a clothing and furnishing store
an establishment which will offer a wide
range Of subjects and wide range of
prices to suit all pocket books This is ,he
kind of store which Parker Bridget &
Co. have thrown open to the public this
holiday season. at the corner of 9th street
and Pennsylvania avenue northwest 1t is
double store, crammed from the first
floor to the topmost with serviceabIe, sea-
sonable and attractive goods. A host of
clerks are in attendance to wait upon the
customers promptly and efficiently, and the
prOprietors themselves make the rounds
of the store to see that every one is taken
care Of.
1t is a good idea, if you don't know lust
what you want for the man or boy to whom
you wish to give a present, to go to the
store and ask to see the goods suitable for
presents. The heads Of the departments
