CONSIDER JUVENILE
COURT COMMITTEE
Religious and Civic Bodies Are
Represented AT Conference
on Subject.

Representatives of various religious
and civic organizations of the District
OF Columbia will meet in the law offices
of former Commissioner Henry B. F.
Macfarland, in the Evans building, late
today to consider the advisability of
forming a Juvenile court committee,
which will act in advisory CAPACITY to
the Judge on all matters pertaining to
the business of this branch of the Dis
.trict's judicial forces.
Judge Latimer, of the Juvenile Court,
at a meeting OF the Anthony League, at
the Portner last night, unfolded the
plan for the meeting this afternoon. 1t
is not known il the committee will be
formed today. but the function of such
an organization will be discussed and
its advisability decided.
THE committee" said Judge Datimer
today, lis one that is badly needed at
the present time. Our facilities at the
Juvenile Court are very poor, and We
lack funds to obtain the proper force
~ probation officers to do justice to the
work Of the Juvenile Court in the Dis
trict. The house of detention at the
Present time is an abuse which should
be remedied, and these Inconvenience
and actual dangers to the youth of the
community exist solely because Congress
does not seem to realize its duty in the
matter"
Judge Latimer will attend the meet
ing this afternoon, which has the back
ing of former Commissioner Mcfarland
The Washington times., 1913-11-21

and representatives OF practically every
religious and civic body in Washington.
The action of the D. A. r. in obtaining
sufficient funds to pay the salary of a
probation officer for the Juvenile Court.
until next June, has been a great force
in enlisting public opinion in behalf of
the work OF the court
One of the most important duties OF
the committee, if it is decided to form
one. will be well directed and concen-
trated efforts to show Congress the
needs Of the court in their true light.
With the backing of such represen-
tative committee. Judge Latimer be-
lieves that public interest will be
stimulated to the point where the
courts work will be of greater benefit
to the community than was dreamed of
at its inception.

The first floor plan of this house is
exceptionally good. From the central
square hall one finds the living room
occupying the entire space at the left.
while to the right is the dining room,
with the kitchen just back of it, The
stairway goes up with single turn.
and is so arranged that the front stair
way from the reception hall and the
back stairway from the kitchen open
onto common landing, thus saving
the expense of an extra stairway and
the space usually occupied by one.
The living room is designed in 40
cordance with the most modern ideas
1t is very large and comfortable, IL
feet by 81 feet in size. In addition
there is an alcove containing wide
fireplace, This room would always be
the center of the home life, CHEEKY and
inviting, and capable of accommodate
ing large number Of persons without
crowding.
On the second floor four good-sized
bedrooms with an abundance Of closet
room are provided. The bathroom is
conveniently located, tho plumbing
fixtures there being directly in line
WITH those in the kitchen. This Is quite
a money saving feature.
The cost of this house is estimated
at $4,000. This is very moderate for
residence Sf this size, 80 feet 6
inches being the width and % feet the
length. This figure contemplates the
use of good quality hardwood finish
and floors for the first floor and yellow
pine for the second.

Learnlna a Lanauaaa.

The time to learn language is
when yen are young. the younger the
better. We learn our own language as
children. The older we grow the
harder 1t is. because It means not
merely learning by heart a great
many words. not merely training the
palate and tongue to produce differ
ent sounds, but adopting a new atti.
tude OF mind Nothing definite has
been discovered as to the localization
OF faculties In the brain, therefore
nothing certain is known, but II has
always seemed to me and to others
whom have consulted that when you
learn q new language you are exercis-
ing and developing new piece of
brain. When you know several Ian
guages and change from one to an
other. you seem definitely to change
the piece of brain which actuates your
tongue You switch OF one center
and switch one to another. You will
always notice in yourself and others
that there is a definite pause when
the change of language is made. Now
II becomes every year more difficult
to awaken an unused part Of the brain
and bring II into active use, and TO
begin at twenty-thrse is late.-The At

II was sent by l.. B. Meimeyer, a

he had forgotten the names of his fell

the card on with the odd directions.
The card was mailed from Naples.
In this connection probably the most
peculiar address was that OF letter
coming into this country-one that
came to New York from a city in Ger
many. II was addressed: Third
House in America" and bore the name
of a German. The New York post
office ives nonplussed. Finally one of
the men got an idea He went to the
pier Of a line in Hoboken where he
thought the man to whom the letter
belonged might have landed with 9TH
ers from Germany. Then he walked
uD three houses and went in. Sure
enough, that was the destination of
the letter. The addressee didn't know
how to tell his friend in far-off Ger
many how to direct the letter. but just
told him the house was the third In
America. and that was the way the
letter came to the right man.-New

HAPPY OLD AGE
Most Likely to Follow Proper Eating.


As old age advances we require less
food to replace waste, and food that
will not overtax the digestive organs.
while supplying true nourishment.
Such an ideal food is found in Grape
Nuts, made Of whole wheat and barley
by long baking and action Of diastase
IN the barley which changes the starch
into a most digestible sugar.
The phosphates also. placed up I'M
der the outercoat of the wheat, are
included in Grape-Nuts, but are lack
ing in white -four because the outer
coat OF the wheat darkens the -four
and is left out by the miller These
natural phosphates are necessary to
the well-balanced building of muscle,
brain and nerve cells.
II have used Grape-Nuts," writes an
Iowa man, "for years and feel as

filled with fruit free from defects OF
any kind. Itsis very important that
the barrel be well shaken each time
a basketful of fruit is put In as the
fruit will be tight in the barrel and
require less pressing OF the head and
consequently less bruising OF the
fruit.
The markets are not filled with an
overproductlon of good fruit. 1t is
the over-production CT poor fruit that
knocks down the price of good fruit.
There is never time that large,
well-matured apple win not bring a
fancy price in any market. And when
nothing but this class is put into a.

Retailers buy fruit from its outward
appearance and when they purchase
a package of seemingly nice fruit and
find on opening it that inferior stuff
is packed between, that does the
grower as far as that man is con.

Meat in some form must be fed to
poultry; they must have animal mat
ter Fowls running on free ranges
where insects are plentiful obtain a
sufficient supply of animal matter, but
those kept in closer quarters must be
given this food in another form
Finely chopped fresh meat is an
excellent bone and muscle builder for
the young stock. but should not be fed
more than two or three times week
Green bone, cut freshly just before
feeding, is equally as beneficial. but
must also be fed with Judgment as

When going into building project
there are three considerations of i'm
portance that present themselves In
the first place there is the design or
outward appearance of the structure,
next the arrangement OF the dwelling
inside for comfort and convenience.
and last the cost of the building.
There Is apt to be wide range of
choice in regard to the first factor
the design or outward appearance of
the house. This is matter TO be de-
cided according to the taste of the
owner and the requirements of the
building site. 1t is proverbial that
tastes differ widely; so there can be
no definite fixed requirements along
that line, Also the needs of different
locations vary greatly. 1t has been
said that we plan the outside of our
houses to please the neighbors. or to
make a brave show from the street.
Accordingly this first factor, that OF
outward appearance, may at times be
of very little real Importance although
of course everyone would prefer to
live in as attractive dwelling place
as possible.
All things considered, the interior OF
residence Is far more important than
the exterior Real satisfaction In a
home comes from the comfortable.
coy and inviting fe atures OF the living
room; the bright cheerfulness of the
dining room, and the conyeniences
provided not only in the kitchen and
pantry, but also in the other parts OF
the house. 1t matters little what the
outside appearance is-granted of

cient number of ladders, receptacles,
sorting tables and all accessories on

cred and shipped promptly They
may be sent to market in one.third,
one-half, or one bushel boxes or
baskets; but little later these small
packages are not wanted and the
three bushel barrel is the proper
thing.
Prices are most always good at the
beginning of the apple season, even
for green cookers, and this induced
some to pick and ship half-grown Ben

experience has proven that this is
folly. as the market is soon overload

returns are next to nothing.
This glut is apt to continue as
long as the warm weather lasts: be-
cause there are so many neglected
orchards neither sprayed or cultivat-
ed, in which the apples begin falling
from the trees early; and they are
picked and rushed to market to avoid
loss from this cause.
In picking apples some prefer the
use OF baskets while others prefer
sacks. However. they both have their
advantages and disadvantages. The
advantage Of using basket lies en-

The objections to the baskets are
that they are not so handy as the
