Auxiliary to Democratic National
Congressional Committee Sends
$1,000 to Headquarters.

At a meeting of the District Of CO.
| iumbia auxiliary committee to the Demo-
cratic National Congressional Committee
last night at the Raleigh. It was voted
to send 1000 Of the funds collected to
the chairman of the national commit
tee and to await further contributions.
This committee was organized several
weeks ago and grew out of a dinner
given in honor OF Representative Lloyd.
at which the subject of working for the
election of a Democratic House in the
coming election was talked over.
1t is now the purpose OF the commit
tee to hold weekly meetings and to put
forth such efforts as may be thought
advisable to help. the cause and make
sure the return Of a Democratic House
to the next Congress. The committee Is
composed OF tbirty-one members, and its
efforts SO far have been directed toward
securing a substantial contribution to
the Congressional campaign fund.
Attention was called to the fact that
the committee has no headquarters, en-
ploys no paid clerks, and is under only
nominal expenses. SO that every dollar
contributed to the canvassers will find
its way to the national fund, where II
will do the most good.
The committee has authorization to do
Its work from the national committee.
Its president Is John s. Miller; vice chair
man. William NJ. Clayton: treasurer.
Robert N. Harper. and secretary. Thomas

Have an Assistant.


According to the secretary to Bishop
Harding. of the diocese Of Washington.
the story emanating from New York that
a suffragan bishop Is to be appointed a.
his assistant is wholly without founda-
tion. Bishop Harding returned to WASH
ington late yesterday afternoon, and i'm
mediately communicated with The Her
aid. denying the story. The announce
ment was made through his secretary.
who declared that Bishop Harding was
both surprised and panied that such a
story should gain circulation. because no
serious consideration had been given to
the matter at this time.
The New York story stated with some
positiveness and in detail that a can
didate for the Office Of suffragan bishop
had been determined upon. It was stated
that the bishops Of the Episcopal Church
had authority to employ such assistants
and that Bishop Harding was about to
take advantage of the privilege owing
to the press of work upon him as the
titular head OF the church at the Ma
tional Capital. 1t appears that choice

ADOPTS ELECTRIC STARTER

perfected by Gray n Davis.
The starter consists Of an electric mo-

HOW TO WASH A CAR
Operation Explained by Man.
ager of Large Factory.

To properly wash a car with soap, fire,
dissolve IA a pail OF water sufficient soar
TO make a good suds, IS the advice Of Eu-
sene r. Russell, factory manager OF the
Locomobiie Company. Then In tho wash
lng operation use tho suds. sopping Il on
from tho sponge instead of rubbing the
soap on wet sponge. or. what IS worse,
rubbing +; on tho surface OF the car. Be-
fore applying the suds the car should be
rinsed thoroughly with water, using q
gentle stream. This is important, as all
particles OF grit and dirt mnst be re-
moved from the surface before applying
the sponge
Apply the suds liberaDy where the parts
are dirty; then rinse or with clear water
and fresh sponge. lowing the water be-
low the sponge 10 insure that any grit
and dirt that may DO left on tho surface
Is washed away before tho sponge he's a
chance TO pick II up and scratch the sur
face After the final sponging the sur
face should DO dried with clean, wet
chamois.
In washing the chassis, the same meth
cd is In order, except that II may be nec'
essavy to use stronger suds. Where cars
are in use over oily or muddy roads ire
quent washing Is necessary, and this
watching should be done IA soon ~ pos
sible after the car leaves the road, as
when this oil or mud dries ON the car II
is very diffieult 10 remove and will dam
age the yarnsh. ~ being impossible under
certain oil and mud conditions 10 remove
all the stains. In this connection II IA
important that neither tho bonnet mol
radiator be washed while it is hot, as e
do so will duh the lus,re, running It in q
very short time.
Another point which should be given At
tention Is that the same sponge should
not be used for washing both the bod,
and tho chassis, Both spOnges should b

all times TO keep them clean aud II
