''WORK HARD AND WIN" MOTTO OF WORLDS
FASTEST TYPEWRITER

when I left high school in ProVi-~
deGGG, r. l., 10 years ago, wanted
to be an expert typewriter. l had
learned typewriting in school and it
fascinated. 1 wanted to be the best
typewriter in the country.
81 am now the fastest typewriter in
the world.
eff some other girl wanted to be
world champion and wanted it as
much as I did, and worked for it as
hard as 1 did, perhaps wouln't be
the only typewriter doing 125 words
a minute.
"And now that am champion with
a record to up hold my hard work is
only beginning. l have to practice
two hours a day, and always write
new matter. 1 have to keep my fin-
gers flexible with special exercises,
and my arms strong with massage
and exercise.
'My hands seldom tire during an
exhibition, but / think that is due to
the position / take at the machine
and to my touch. l always sit erect,
and l keep the lower bank of keys
level with my elbows. My stroke is a
sharp, staccato blow on the key, my
fingers never linger an instant there
you can't hesitate very long when
you are making 125 words minute"

Terms Refusal to Garry Americas
Cotton Seed Products as Arbitrary
and Uniusi6abIe."

After thorough investigation. State De-
partment oficials are inclined TO regard
the refusal Of the Holland-Ameriean
steamship line to accept shipments OF
American cotton-seed products for Hol-
land as an arbitrary action. for which
no adequate Justification has yet besn
offered by the steamship company.
According to the understanding be-
tween this government and Great Brit
ain. the British government has revised
her contraband list so as to permit the
shipment Of American foodstuffs TO Hol-
land in neutral bottoms. Holland has
forbidden the expectation to Germany OF
all sorts Of foodstuffs and materials use
ful In war, an arrangement which as
sures Great Britain that shipments OF
foodstuffs and other articles to Holland
will not ultimately be devoted TO the
uses OF the Germans The cotton-seed
products are classed as articles Of condi-
tional contraband and entitled to ship
ment to Holland without moIestation-
Oficials Of the State Department are
of the opinion that American cotton may
be shipped TO any port whatsoever, IN
Guiding ports Of belligerents. without
molestation. in the absence Of any block

and, therefore, is not subject to seizuro

Business Men Realize the Benefit that
Will Accrue if The Herald Cam
paign Is Successful.

R. p. Andrews, who went out OF town
just before President Rudolph. OF the
Board of Trade, returned, was confident
yesterday that his plan to attract tourists
will be taken up without delay.
During his trip, Mr.. Andrews told many
friends of the campaign suggested by
The Herald. Approval was shown by all.
Mr.. Andrews said, and in no case was
there doubt that the plan can be carried
out effectively and cheaply.
1t is planned early this week to obtain
the sailing lists of steamers and to in
quire of tourists agencies regarding their
select travelling lists The work Of ad-
dressing those on the lists and pointing
out the attractiveness of Washington will
be one Of the first things done by the
committee.
Boost Washington.
The joint conventions finance COM
mittee of the commercial organiza-
tions already has approved the plan.
1t was said in a statement of the
Chamber of Commerce yesterday:
''The proposel to advertise the Cap
ital as a tourist resort in magazines
with a large national character, and
by personal solicitation, has been re-
ferred to the committee on publicity.
and a report on the question would
come also within the scope of the joint
conventions committee.
The campaign proposed by The Her
aid to advertise the attractions Of
Washington with the view of bringing
tourists to the National Capital was
formally inaugurated yesterday, when
the heads of the three local CONNER
cial organizations got together and
discussed ways and means. Present
were Cuno, H. Rulolph, president Of
the Board of trade; William F. GUIDE,
president of the Chamber of Com
merce, and Ross P. Andrews, presi-
dent Of the Retail Merchants Associa-
tion.
Many cities combine with the conven-
ton bureau a tourist department with
most satisfactory results. Atlantic City's
good work in this connection is note
worthy example.
The suggestion has been made by MEM
bers of the committee that Mr.. Andrews,
who suggested the campaign to have
tourists bureau, be made chairman. Mr..
Andrews, in spite of his absence from
the city during most of this, the first
week Of the campaign. has done much to
further the work of the committee, both
by action and word.
Mr. Andrews received enthusiastically
the news that Mrs. John B. Henderson
has volunteered to help the campaign,
and that she will be glad TO help the
committee in any way. Among the many
who have offered to cooperate are c. ].
Gockeler, secretary Of the Board Of Trade;
Thomas Grant, secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce, and Charles ]. Columbus.

Some Of the inner ring Of defenses and
the outer fortifcations are still manned

the weaker redoubts should be forced be-
fore many hours.

The Germans are in complete occupa-

took place at 2:3O Friday p. m The

Military critics today discussed the pos
sibilIty OF the re-taking OF Antwerp by
the allies. II Is an accepted maxim that
