PARK VIEW PUPILS
MAY Be PERMITTED
EXTENDED VACATION
Failure to Provide Better
School Facilities Resented
BY Citizens.

Unless additional school facilities are
furnished befor, fall the children of
Park View ma yenjoy an unlimited va
cation.
This was the statement today Of John
@. McGrath, president of the Park
lew Citizens Association. The asso-
citation last year endeavored to have
included in the District Appropriation
bill IN item for the erection of school
building on a sits owned by The Dis
trict at Lamont and Warder streets.
Failing In this, request was made for
the use Of two portable school buildings.
The authorities have not yet decided
whether to grant the rquest.
Mr.. McGrath said today in the event
of an adverse decision he will intro
duce in the Park View Citizens Asso-
citation q resolution calling upon parents
to keep their children out Of school. If
an attempt is made to enforce the law
providing for their attendance the
answer Of the suburbanites will be that
they are willing to send their children
to school but are not afforded the facil-
tiles.
During the last session the children
of Park View attended the school al

HOUSE COMMITTEE
PLANS REVISION
OF PATENT LAWS
Effort Will Be Made to
Break Down Obnoxious
Monopolies.

Three assaults upon the patent mo-
nopoly" established by the Supreme
Court in its decision of the Dick
Monograph case" are incorporated In
a bill reported today by the House Pat
ents Committee. Chairman Oldfield to-
day began preparation of the report.
A substitute bill to recodify the laws
and meet the supreme courts ruling
has been unanimously reported by the
Patents Committee. The measure Is
much shorter than that originally
drawn by Chairman Oldfield, and is de-
immediate consideration of Congress be-
fore adjournment
The three principal provisions to
break up the patent monopoly" under
the Dick decision are:
Prohibit purchase of patents by cor
porations designing to secure a monop-
oily upon patents in a general industrial
line.
Permit use of patented machines with
materials not specified as restriction
upon their use.
Amendment of the Sherman anti
trust law to punish patent monopolies
The committees bill will meet the
Dick decision, which held that any pat
cntee could restrict the use of his ar.
ticle and also require use of any ma.
tcrial or contrivance with 1t, by pro.
hibiting purchase of patents, like the
practice charged against the United
Shoe Machinery Company. This pro
hibition will not apply to original in
ventors, but to patent purchasers.
Another Important provision Is thai
persons who violate patent restrictioni
which limit the use of materials barred
by the patentee can not be sued for in
fringement of the, patent.
General re-codification OF the paten
laws, as recommended by Patent Com
missioner Moore, will not be attempted
b ythe House Committee until mex
winter.

THOSE of the CAVALIER readers
who care for fiction with a French
COTS ROMANCE" by Paul Scott
Mowrer. This story has all the
strength and vitality one finds in the
works of Zola and Hugo and Daudet.
The story smacks Of the earth, and OF
primitive passions, and the nobility;
OF great love as it asserted itself in
the heart of the young French soldier.
who becomes Marthes hero.
1t is unfortunate that Marthe had
a brother who was a Paris Apache.
There wasn't anything in the world
he wouldn't do to increase his ex-
chequer. Altogether. he was a thor
oughly bad lot. while Marthe, with
all her poverty, was the personifca-
tion Of respectability. Blood is thicker
than water in France the same as
her rough, coarse brother and her
gentle and affectionate soldier lover.
to say nothing Of the interference of
the gendarmes, she was tossed around
Paris like a shuttlecock.
You must read this story by Now
rer He will be remembered as the
author of "ONE OF THESE COUN-
TRY GIRLS" which appeared In a
previous number Of THE CAVALIER.
Under the title of THE HIRED
~ SCREAM" Mary Germaine offers
her friends a story about an actress
who, while not particularly strong In
Thespian roles, was able to cut loose
the most remarkable scream ever
heard on any stage. The gentleman
who wrote the play made the most
elaborate preparations for the moment
In which the scream was liberated.
Originally 1t was designed that the
! star should make this deep-throated
offering. But 1t began to get on her
nerves, and she, in turn. got on the
managers nerves. And then the man
ager blew up and finally hired the
| scream.
That is how the story begins. and
leave 1t to you TO say whether or
not Mary Germaine has exercised to
it's fullness her fine understanding OF
what a climax ought to be.

"A Stitch in Time"
BY FRED JACKSON

1T is a pleasure to announce this
novelette,, because 1t Is one OF
the best things Jackson ever wrote
for THE CAVALIER. 1t is about
lonely. rich bachelor who hadn't any
body to mend his clothes or darn his
socks or fix the monograms on his
handkerchiefs or keep the buttons on
his pajamas. So he went to a little
mending-shop and asked for some help.
And 10 and behold! Mr.. George w.
Cupid, who is always hanging around
waiting to make trouble for people,
butted in, and without any rime or
reason whatever. arranged so that the
rich. young bachelor gent came face
to face with a rich young bachelor
girl who happened to be visiting the
mending shop. And, by George. he
thought she vas one OF the attendants.
so he engaged her to come and AK
his clothes. Well. she happened to
have a sense OF humor, and took the
Job And there you are.
Nobody but Fred Jackson could have
handled this situation adroity and ar
tistiCally.
