No Arrests In l. How

the Public Laugh.

Marshal Collins has been forced TO add
another sideline 10 his martial duties
in order to while away the dragging
hours since the Conduit road became
dull and uninteresting. owing to the abb
sence Of scorching autoists snd further
announcements from the War Depart
ment.
The marshaTs latest acquisition of
public interest is the lease C. a Lemon
House" in Glen Echo Park. This does
not mean that the public is handed a
lemon by Marshal Collins in event they
patronize this concession. BY no means.
The marshal feels more kind toward the
public at large than to. autoists as a
class. and in consequence Of the mag
unanimous spirit, you VIII be welcomed
with a true Collins smile when you drop

1t would be Inanifestly unfair to the
marshal to announce OF just what his
attraction consists. Far better were It
to announce the happy ending OF the

II viii be recalled that Collins had
aspirations some weeks ago to go upon
the vaudeville stage at Glen Echo In
a far-heralded ''hold-up' act, but the
town counsel forbade and the marshal
