Says Rights Were Battered Away.

for the few who traded away your right
to govern yourselves when they said
Give us one-half of the expenses to run
the government. and we will surrender

who bartered and bargained away your
political freedom are equally as con-
temptible and more so than those who
sell their own votes and bride others.
Little has been done to release yol.
from this bondage, but | believe that We
are on the very Threshold of political
freedom for the District of Columbia. and
am convinced that you are as ready for
home rule as are the people of Ireland. "
Treasurer Burke said he hoped the time

people of the District the right to vote
and manage their own affairs. He said he

FIVE SENSES COMPETE
FOR PLACE Of HONOR
Exercises at the Opening of
Vacation Lodge by
Y. w. c. A.

Notwithstanding the unfavorable
weather conditions. a large number Of
people assembled yesterday afternoon at
Vacation Lodge, near Cherrydale, Va,
to witness the exercises attending the
formal opening for the season of that
institution. maintained by the Young
Womens Christian Association as a
summer home for the business girls of
Washington. Some went Immediately
after noon and enjoyed the beautiful
walks nearby, the broad veranda filling
with the arrival of each car. The shower
which fell at about O'Clock wet the
grass, but it did not prevent the presen-
tation of the ''Masque of the Five
Senses which formed a feature of the
afternoons program. This was per-
formed on the lawn Immediately in front
of the lodge, in full accordance with the
preparations. the only disadvantage
caused by the rain being that the grass
was made somewhat slippery for the
dancers. who formed an attractive fea-
ture of the production.
The "Masque of the Five Senses
proved to be beautiful spectacle and
was greatly appreciated by the several
hundred persons who witnessed it. chiefly
from the wide veranda of the lodge. 1t
is the story of the mutual usefulness of
all the senses. Each of the five at the
outset presentes a claim of superiority.
A herald, acting as judge, DEGREES that
the contestants endeavor to prove their
respective cases. and SO one by one the
senses offer their attributes and accom-
plishments and finally a decision is rem
dered to the effect that no one of the five
is best or first, but that all are neces-
sary and useful and that it is the duty OF
all to work together.
