pany in promoting the river side of

Gratifying to Commissioners.

The action of the Senate committee on
education and labor in reporting favor
ably without amendment the bill prepared
by the District Commissioners and intro
duced by Senator Gallinger at their re-
quest was particularly gratifying to the
Commissioners. according to expressions
made by them at the District building
today.
Commissioner Macfarland, who person
ally directed the preparation of the bill
and secured the ideas of the national child
labor committee and the District of CO.
lumbia child labor committee, the Civic
Center and other organiza tons for that
purpose. said today in reference to this
legislation:
Il trust that this bill will pass at this
session. 1t is the last of the important
measures of social reform on the program
of the Commissioners for the past seven
years. If enacted 1t will take the District
Of Columbia out of the very small list of
child labor laws"

Manv Attend Recital.

Many notables in the musical and So

the song recital in the ballroom of the
Raleigh Hotel last evening given by the
pupils of the Washington branch of the
Ogden-Crane School of Opera of New
York city. under the auspices of Mrs.
Henry Hunt Mckee, assisted by Prof.
Charlemagne Koehler, stage director. and
Mr.. Julian Brylawski. business manager.
Unforeseen obstacles prevented the
presentation of the one-act operetta,
Love and Whist" which promised to be
the feature of the evenings entertain
ment.
Mrs. Mckee met the exigency by pre-
senting Prof Fabian. the pianist, and
Mrs. Jones' soloist. who proved to be
delightful substitutes for the second part
of the regular program.
Mrs. Mckee was the recipient of many
gratulationS at the close of the enter
tainment.
