PARROT GETS ASTHMA;
WILL GOES TO PROBATE
Miss Elizabeth Stock With
draws Contest Against
Mothers Testament.

Because parrot. the former pet of
her mother, Mrs. Ottilie Stock, has con-
tracted asthma, Miss Elizabeth Stock to-
day withdrew the caveat that she filed
last summer to the probate Of her moth
er's will and the testament of Mrs. Stock
was admitted to probate by Justice Gould.
The courts action, it is said, leaves
Morris Hahn and Mrs. Max kamerow,
executors Of the estate. in a quandary.
The parrot Is inventoried at a valuation
OF So, for which the executors are re-
sponsible to the estate, and yet the will
OF Mrs. Stock gave specific instructions
that her pet be chloroformed.
Shall the bird be killed as directed in
the will, which the court has probated?
Shall it be sold and it's proceeds be
accounted for by them?
These are the two questions which pre-
sent themselves to the executors, and
over which they are said to be much
perturbed.
In withdrawing the caveat filed by
the daughter Attorney w. A. Donch
told Justice Gould that the bird is now
suffering from asthma, which he claimed
lessened it's value, and as the little house.
hold effects left by Mrs. Stock are not
desired by the daughter, she had decided
to abandon the contest over the will.

VACATION THOUGHTS
Spring Atmosphere Brings
Longing for Country.

petition for Free Trips.
TWO GIRLS WORK AS TEAM
Aiming for a Weeks Stay at Colo
NAL Beach, With Fare
and Board Paid.


Already longing for country and sea-
side has begun to creep into the spring
atmosphere. People feel the wanderlust
stirring in their minds at every glimpse
OF handbag or summer resort adver-
tisement. This longing to get away"
will be intensified when spring wakes to
summer and the baggage and lads are
Increased q hundredfold.
Be of the wise ones who are hustling
right now for subscriptions to The Star,
that you may join the vanguard of happy
vacationists waving goodbye from steam
boat wharves or Union station.
Whether YOU desire a trip to Canada
or stay at some nearby resort, know
that either is within your reach. Just
ask your friends if they take The Star.
and If not, why not? You will find them
willing both to take the paper and at
the same time enable you to have a
splendid holiday without cost or worry.

They are theoretically working togeth-
er for a weeks stay down at Colonial

Der Of we'll furnished households kept
down there during the summer by Wash

Another feature of this free vacation

Summer is the time to loaf and invite
ones soul, and with a house filed just by
congenial friends one can loll about and

This Is particularly enticing to men and

Desirable Resorts Nearby.

There are several such places sufficiently
near to Washington for the railroad fare
not to exact too much of the expense
money allowed. One in Virginia is 400
feet above sea level, and is really a viii
lage of rustic cottages. These are group
ed, yet far enough apart to insure pri-
vacy. They are not necessarily rented
outright-that would be both very ex-
pensive and demand a lengthy stay-but
when enough persons come in single
party to fill one of theee houses 1t is
given over to them for occupancy. Really
a country place for just the usual rates
in a hotel.
There is dancing every evening at this
place and the most glorious walks and
drives over the mountain roads.

Gated on Catoctin mountain, above Fred
