WORK HARD IN SCHOOL
PRINCIPAL EVANS SAYS PUPILS
REPAY SACRIFICES.
Colored Population Assured Of
Square Deal From Public
School Officials.

Wilson Bruce Evans. principal of the
Armstrong Manual Training School, ad-
dressed the parents and friends OF the
students and graduates of the Armstrong
School at Israel Baptist Church last
night. He urged the parents to even
greater sacrifices in the future to giving
their children at least high school edu-
cation.
You are sometimes discouraged by
hearing from the pulpits of your church
es and other assemblages that your chill
dren are not taking advantage OF the
opportunities that are offered them and
that they are not giving adequate return
in effort for the sacrifices that you have
made and that you are making" he
said.
Honest Efforts in School.
This sweeping statement, SO often
heard, 1 desire to refute in the strong
est possible terms, for the great major
ity Of the children. in Armstrong School,
at least, are putting forth honest effort
In every direction to repay the sacrifices
made by poor, Woodworking parents to
send them to school,.
There is another danger which / wish
to mention at this time. There are those
among us who pretend to a kind of lead.
ership who would not and do no,
hesitate to defame the good name Of oul
public schools by covert attacks on the
integrity and honesty of the members OF
our board of education. our superintend
ent and assistant superintendent and
their subordinates. Have &C care abou,
accepting advice from such people! Their
only hope and only thought is to gain
a kind OF cheap notoriety by forcing them
selves in the most offensive way upor
the parents and pupils of our system.
Assured of Square Deal.
From Capt James F. Oyster, presiden,
of the board of education: from Supt A
T. Stuart, from Asst. Supt. r. c. Bruce
and from their colleagues and subordi.

A N U S EN- E nj s.
New National.

THE Bohemian Girl" whose beautiful
lyrics have been household melodies
within the memory Of the Oldest in
habitant, was given its first presentation
this season at the New National Theater
last evening by the Aborn Grand Opera
Company. To Louise lie Barron, as the
gypsy queen, easily belong the honors OF
the evening. With a rich, mellow con-
tralto of wide range and sweetness, SYM
pathetically rejecting the sentiment OF
her songs, and fine stage presence, Miss
in a manner to call forth the warmest
commentator. George Shields. who,
with Miss LIE Barron appeared with the
company for the first time this season IN
Washington, made an effective Devils
hoof. Mr.. Shields has rich and power
full bass voice. and he sings and acts well.
but there are times when his comedy
seems to violate the traditions Of the role
he impersonates. c. w. Meyer, who ap-
peared as Florestein. also lessened the
too much frivolity. although his role is
that of an effeminate fop.
J. K. Murray, as Count Arnheim, both
sang and acted his part with discretion
and fine effect. He was deservedly APP
plauded by an audience that was rather
generous with it's applause. Paul Bley-
den again appeared with the company.
this time in the role of Thaddeus. Some
of his songs were well and sweetly sung,
and he earned his encore with Then
You'll Remember Me-" Clara Lane sang
the role of Airline. Both in singing and
acting she seemed to lack the warmth so
essential to the role. May Billsbury
completed the cast in the minor role or
Buda, Arline's attendant. The chorus
deserves creditable mention. and the d.
minished orchestra, under the direction
of Carlo Nicosia. gave a good account
of itself. 1t must be confessed that the
performance contrasted strongly with
Blanche Morrison and John r. Phillips
both won pronounced ovations as Airline
and Thaddeus.

Columbia.

BY their splendid presentation of Mar
tina Morton's play THE Bachelors Re-
nance" at the Columbia Theater last
evening the Columbia Players added ma
terial!y to their laurels. The play is one
thousands of his admirers in his time and
is closely linked with his memory. So
satisfied was the audience with the man
ner in which is was presented that after
the fall of the last curtain 1t remained
to applaud and recall the players again
and again.
There is plenty of opportunity in the
play for delightful character sketches
and the players seemed to realize the
fact and rise to their opportunities.
Paul McAllister easily does his best
work of the season in the role of David
Holmes, the near-sighted literary critic,
who Is near-blind In matters of the heart.
He seemed thoroughly imbued with the
spirit of the role and reflected it's quaint
humor with marked discretion and
effect.
Julia Dean. as David's ward. a simple
hearted, joyous girl, with a deep under
current of human feeling and discern
ment, is most happily cast. The role Is
one of those which Miss Dean knows
so well how to make peculiarly her own
and her audience warmly welcomed hel
back to the field in which she first wor
high favor with local patrons.
AS the two old bookworms, Martin
Beggs and Mr.. Mulberry. Walter Wilson
and Stanley James gave added pleasure
to the performance. Mr.. Wilson has been
exceptionally effective in character roles
within the past few weeks, and this week
he has another in which he makes his
mark.
Everett Butterfield. as Gerald Holmes.
has more of an opportunity than he has
had for some time and his work was
I'D to high standard.
Emelie Melville, too. as Miss Clemen-
tine. maiden lady who is most par
ticular. but with her heart always in
the right place." is to be commended
for her usual cleverness and a pleasing
portrayal. So, too, in the congenial roles
of David's sister and Harriet Leicester.
Florence Huntington and Phyllis Sher-
wood measured up to the standard set
by the more prominent characters. Gas
ton Bell and Frank Shannon were as
they always are-very satisfactory.
The waits between the acts last night
seemed to try the patience of many.
Shorter intermissions would be most
popular.

Ozark to Join Fleet.
lowed From Norfolk.

The Ozark was lowed to Washington
by the naval tugs Patapsco and Mohawk.
Because of the insufficient appropriation
to send officers and men Of the naval
battalion to Norfolk to bring the monitor
here the government tugs towed it.
To permit the men to familiarize them
selves with the new training ship before
the annual cruise, a two-day outing on
board the Ozark will be taken shortly.
While the new ship is smaller than the
Puritan, and the sleeping quarters will
be more crowded more deck space is
provided for the sailors.
