FIRST EARTH BROKEN
FOR new HIGH SCHOOL
Before T6rong of Officials and Central
Pupils. Emory S. Wilson
Yields Spade.
CEREMONIES ARE IMPRESSIVE

To a mighty cheer by hundreds OF
youthful voices. Emory S. Wilson, prin-
cipal of Central High School, yesterday
morning turned the first spadeful OF
frozen earth near the center of the big,
rough lot at Thirteenth and Clifton
streets, breaking the ground for the new
home of the Central High School pupils.
The event. which is epoch-making in
the history of the National Capitals edu-
cational institutions, was attended by
impressive ceremonies. The spot was
marked by and old and faded flag. as
old as the present Central High School,
and which has for many years been used
as a marker in the competitive drills.
Around this nag stood hundreds of pu-
pills and the members of the board of
education as well as the teachers and
many alumni OF the school. An impress
sive feature was the singing first of .Old
Central" and then of New Central" fol-
lowed by three cheers for each. The
marching song of the school. "Tenax Pro-
post," also was sung.
Principal Wilson then turned over the
spade to Fred L. Fishback, president Of
the Central High School Alumni Associa-
ton, whereupon II went the round to Ern-
est L. Thurston, superintendent Of
schools: Henry p. Blair, president of the
board of education; Capt James F. Oys-
ter. former president; stephen E. Kramer,
assistant superintendent Of schools. and
Ernest II. Daniel, vice president Of the
board Of education.
Principal Wilson in a speech said: O
There are SO many men here really
more entitled to the honor than / am,
any one of whom II would be most ap
piopriate to ask to perform this act. that
a choice is impossible" indicating a knot
of members of the board Of education
and others high in scholastic circles who
stood behind him, as he held a shovel
in front OF him. Besides, I want to
do II myself! This is the happiest mo-
ment of all my connection with Central
High SCHOOL,"

"SHE Tilted MI, BUT
I'll HELP HER OUT!'
Former Sweetheart Pledges Help to
Windicate Griffith Girl of Theft
Charge.
MARRIED, SEPARATED, ELopED

she Tilted me for another, but I SHAH
do all I can to help her out Of her
scrape.''
Thus speaking, Clarence Keefer, of liz
Todd place northeast. this city, last
night commenced planning to bring about
the vindication OF Gertrude Griffith, the
washington girl detained in Atlanta, Ga,
for the Washington authorities. She Is
wanted here for the alleged theft of
81 900 from Mrs. William ]. Thomas, OF
the Oswego. 1s2s U street northwest, last
August
Miss Griffith's arrest was the culmina-
ton of a romance that began with the
sympathy that two unfortunate beings
naturally feel toward each other. The
girl, who Is only seventeen years old.
had been left alone in Washington to
shift for herself. while Keefer. who Is
several years her senior, had been
manned for life as the result Of an &C.
cident.
This sympathy soon ripened into an at
tachment Then came an engagement.
but they could not carry out their be-
trothal for the reason mat Miss
Griffith already had a husband. She was
married when only fourteen years old. but
this romance was soon shattered and
ended with a separation.
About that time the child-wifs met
Keefer, then employed by the District
government. Keefer pitied her as much
as she pitied him. He supplied her with
enough cash to keep her going and con-
tinued to call on her after she had be-
come maid to Mrs. Thomas.
Mrs Thomas missed s., 900 In cash,
which she had secreted in the folds Of a
skirt. The maid had disappeared and
warrant was sworn out for her arrest.
The same day the girl and Keefer left
for the Coast Keefer said that she paid
the fare but that she had less than s10o.
In the meantime ~Keefer had pressed
his claim to the girls hand and finally
she broke the news of her former mar
riage Keefer then offered to help hei
procure a divorce.
The couple went to Los Angeles. A
warrant for Keefer's arrest was also
sworn out and detectives were sent or
the track of both. The authorities might
never have located either OF them but fcI
a street car conductors coming between
them. The girl eloped with the conductor
il is said. leaving Keefer in Los Angeles
After a fruitless search for her, Kecfe'
lost his nerve and wired to his mother
to give him up TO the authorities. TIL.
Los Angeles police were notified and the
United States marshal for that district
brought him back. Chief Justice Cla'
baugh paroled Keefer about three week:
ago. after he had been in Jail about l0
days.
The girl probably went to Atlanta tc
search for her father. whom she had not
seen for several years. All of Keefer's
plans were blocked by her capture.
Keefer was planning to leave yester-
day for the mountains of Tennessee for
his health. He abandoned the trip on ac-
count of the girls plight.

that the farmer be shown how to pro-
