In connection with the problem of the

the general problem Of dealing with

Charities will give active consideration
to the possibility of placing a large
number of men sent to The workhouse
from Police Court, on farms in Virginia

MAKING PLANS FOR

Hill Climb, Endurance Tour,

Automobile sporting events will be
quite numerous in Washington during
the coming season IL plans now under
consideration by the Automobile Club
of Washington are carried out.
1t Is planned to open the season with
a hill climb, and scouts are now out
looking for a suitable hill on which to
hold the event. In making up the pro-
gram provision will be made for vari-
Gus classes of cars with a free-for- all
event to wind up the days sport Fol-
lowing the hill climb will come the big
endurance tour schedule to start June s
sui ano continue Tor week. This event is
likely to be the biggest automobile COM
petitive event held In this section of the
country in several years
Club runs will also likely be held at
frequent intervals during the summer,
ana soclability run may also be one
events.

night. Mr. and Mrs. Morse remained
on board and continued on to Genoa.
During the trip across most of the

to show by his actions that his health
was improving daily

4 Use Following Complaint
| by u. S. Attorney.

Prompt consideration of the problem
of the escapes of prisoners from Oc-
couuan is promised by the District Com
missloners, following receipt of COM
plant by the United States attorneys s
office of the number of "long-termers''
leaving the workhouse almost at will.
The Commissioners and the Board of
Charities will hold meeting in a day
or two, to take steps to solve the prob
lem, 1t was announced today by Presi-
dent Rudolph. Mr. Rudolph in this
connection, also announced that active
conduct of Occoquan has been turned
over to the Board of Charities. The
conference between the two boards will
result, 1t Is predicted, in the esta blish-
ment of more guards.
Jurisdiction BY Law.
The Board of Charities has received
formal commission to conduct Occo-
guam in virtue of the law providing
that the board shall conduct all official
charitable and penal institutions in the
District
Board of Charities, today agreed with
the suggestion of Commissioner Ru-
dolph and Assistant United States At
torney Ralph Given that more guards
Will solve the problem, WnlCh Judge
Pugh and the United States attorney S
office declared so threatening that 1.-The
administration of justice in the two
branches of Police Court would soon
become abortive and chaotic
Ten guards were dismissed at Oc-
Coquan a month ago, before the Com
missioners turned over to the Board
of Charities the active conduct of the
workhouse. Four of these guards have
been reinstated within the last few days
following the escape ofNnore long-term
offenders. The ten were laid off be-
cause of a lack OF funds.
Secret Correspondence.
United States Attorney Clarence R.
Wilson took up the matter of the es-
cape of prisoners with the Commits
sioners more than a week ago, at the
instance of Judge Pugh. President Ru-
dolph replied to Mr.. Wilson and to
Mr.. Given, to whom the matter was
turned over by Mr.. Wilson, promising
prompt action. The correspondence
was kept a secret until notice came to
Police Cpurt yesterday of the escape
of Brigham Young, a two-year term
man, and Joseph Sears, whose aggre-
gate sentence is 364 days.
THE United States attorneys office
does not wish to criticise the Commits
sioners,' said Mr.. Given this morning,
but 1t is eager that action shall be
taken so that the District administra-
tion of justice shall not become a joke. u

Forces That Cause
Growth of Process.

What are the forces which influence
the growth of this process? They are
several. When the mouth is closed, the
tongue lies closely against the roof OF
the mouth, producing a suction which
forms a partial vacuum between the TOP
of the tongue and the roof of the mouth
1t will be seen from the figures that
the palate projection and that bearing
the teeth of the bones bounding the
nasal chambers form an arch, the under

With partial vacuum under the root
of the mouth, atmospheric pressure
which, you may remember, is fifteen
pounds to the square inch, furnishes a
force which tends to broaden this arch

when the mouth is closed, the tongue

ity Is Shown-Precautions That Should Be Taken in
Development of Children.

That respiration Is the most neces-
sarv of all the needs Of life none will
deny. We can exist days without food.
for hours without water, for very few
minutes without air. Life is but a
matter of chemistry; the chemical pro-
cesses taking place within the animal
body are all regulated by an element In
the air we breathe, the oxygen. The
moro that chemistry delves into the
mystery of life. the more do we come
to understand that we ''live. and move,
and have our being because OF the
oxygen contained in the air we breathe.
This is true, and being true, 1t must be
apparent to ali that anv cause which
prevents our obtaining a full supply OF
oxygen strikes at the root of our ex-
istenSe.
The pathway to the lungs, however, is
so constructed that the air we breathe
must be prepared before 1t can be used.
II must be cleansed of dust: 1t must be
mada moist; It must be warmed. The
proper mechanism to do this is all To-
Gated within the nasal chambers. 1t Is
there and nowhere else, and when the
course of breathing is diverted from Its
proper channel. changes occur which re-
suit in disease.
To one whose work leads to q study OF
the conditions presented in the nose
mouth, and throat, together with ada
cent facial structures, the fact is almost
OmnipreScnt that the ideal normal con-
formation is a rarity. Rhinologists are
universally of the opinion that the nor
nal nose Is the exception rather than
the rule, and the dentist who finds a
normal set of teeth, proclaims the fact
with great rejoicing to all his brethren
Metabolism is the term applied to
those processes going on within the
body which give the phenomena Of life.
Metabolism is maintained by the air we
breathe and the food we eat. At the
gateway of life stands this most inn
portant organ. To its proper growth
and development should be given Dor-
ton of the effort that Is being made fer
the betterment of the race. Much has
been done; much remains yet TO be
done.
After birth the development Of the
child's face may be said to occupy three

at about the second year, continuing
to the fifth, when the face grows more

This plant has Il very prolific
growth in wet districts but according
to the reports that Chief Forester
Ralph s. Iiosmer has received does
not do so well in the dry places. The
Board is determined not To take any
risks, however, and yesterday passed
regulation forbidding the removal
of the plant from one part of the Ter
ritory to another.
This means that in future no one
will be allowed to take plants away
and start them growing in another

which the pest can be taken from one
