"Made in America"

Washington business men will unite in helping to
make that slogan famous. For years the "Made in Ger
many" inscription has been national advertisement for
the business of that nation Other nations in lesser de-
gree have made their national trademark business asset
From on if Washington business men, in conjunction
with others all the country help the idea, the
"Made in America phrase will be commercial asset.
Though Washington is not an industrial CENTER the
Capitals business assert that their response to the
tionwde movement to boost American products will reflect
prosperity here besides having obvious patriotic value
Now these point out with the foreign factories badly
crippled by the war; is the time to make American products
known.

goods when the choice lies between the homemade and
an imported product will not only be good patriotism but
good business Washington commercial dealers say

TWO WAYS To SPOON,
! SAYS TURNKEY SAM
"Spooning Himself" He Tells
Young Girl Who Asks About
His Fishing.

"There are two kinds OF spooninE,
said Sam. the turnkey down at the dock
of the Police Court. this morning. Sam
is always ready for a pleasant chat and
an exchange of repartee. In fact, he
has such a iovial way with him, that
by the time he gets through calling pet
names to some of the victims in the
pen. joshing others, and smiling on all
generally, they have all been convinced
that they are enjoying a pleasant holi-
day.
Sam had a story this morning about
an experience that befell him recently
down on the Basin. Sam is great
fisher and declares that out OF the -
days In the year when fishlng is sood,
there are not two that do not find him
out with his rod and spoon. And the
story proved that Sam not only Is
good fishe-, but that he also has an eye
FOR the artistic, and that if he had had
chance to develop his talent along artist
lines instead of along the line of city
parentaze to the unfortunates who are
turned over to his care every day from
the police precincts of the District. he
might have put the sunshine onto cam
vas, instead of in the souls of the down.
cast man, woman, and girl in the pen.
Fishing On Embankment.
This was the story. Sam was quietly
fishing on the edge of the river along
the embarkment that is well-known TO
ali the amorous couples, far and wide,
throughout the city. The sun was shin
ing brightly and, caught by the ripples
op the bosom of the broad Potomac,
became converted into myriads of dia-
monds.
Sam was not so engrossed in his fish,
ing that he could lot see two young
persons, a girl and boy. settle them
selves down on the grassy bank not
far from him. According to Sam the
girl had a dress of light texture, the
kind that is suitable for the hot
weather, and she was beauty. The
boy was not bad looking, either. In
goods as far as looks went. They
didn't happen to see Sam at first, but
he couldn't but help seeing them, and
he didn't care much il he did.
Presently, the CLINT Of Sans spoon.
the srrangement that he uses instead of
a bait for enticing his fish. caught the
eye of the girl. and from the spoon she
discovered the fisherman. who was
manipulating it.
Two Kinds of Spooning.
What are you doing?" she asked
sam curiously.
why, am spooning," he replied
sNow you are doing one kind of spoon
ing, but am doing another kind
Sam didn't say that he regretted that
he wasn't engaged in the other variety
Of spooning, but he at least had an
sppreciative eye for the picture of
ee its setting the curving shore of the
Basin with its grass and Willows. where
Sam the turnkey loves to drop the line

the window of his bed room in the
Roardman house in Troy; that he
was the stranger who entered Clute's
car near the state capitol on the night
of the crime, and that robbery was
the motive.
Counsel for the defense admits
that Clifford left his companions be-
fore going to the dance in Troy. Gift
ford. they say, was not formally in
vited to the social event that preced-
ed the dance. His counsel declared
that for this reason he left his COM
panions to go to dinner alone.
His counsel will also contend that
if it can be proved that Gifford's
trousers were mud stained the stains
came from a fall on the way to the
dance, and that he never used the
revolver that was pawned in his name
at Northampton; that he knows moth
ing of the placing of Clute's wallet
under the caves of the roof; that at
II O'Clock on the night of the muir
der, when the prosecution declares
the murderer was seen shielding
Clute's body in the automobile near
st. Patrick's cemetery, young Gift
ford was dancing at the Troy club.

WILL GET THEIR AUTOS.
Vice President and Speaker of House
Voted $500 Machines.


After days of parliamentary wrang-

agreed to appropriate for automobiles
/ for Vice President Marshall and
/ Speaker Clark. Each will have a car
costing $4,000.
Republican Leader Mann led the
fight for the appropriation for the
speaker.
Il think he said, 1--WE ought to
give him a slight recognition of his
great abilities as speaker. I do not
wish to draw comparisons between
the speaker and the president, but if
Champ Clark had been nominated
and elected president all would have
been proud of him in that position. .
The house cheered Mr.. Mann's trib-
ute to the speaker and passed the
appropriation, already approved by
the senate.
