WOMEN ARE BUSY

Women are more yitally concerned
in the good roads movement than
are men," declares Mrs Robert Ba-
ker. chairman of the woman's depart
meut of the American highway asso-
citation at Washington. The isolation
and loneliness of farm life, cut on
for months each year from communi-
tion with the outside world, because
of impossible roads, falls most heav-
lily upon the women of the household.
The young escape it by moving to the
cities but the wives and mothers must
endure it, Schools and churches can
only develop their field of usefulness
when they are made accessible TO
the contiguous population. Next to the
home the women should cherish and
upbuild. most of all the church and
school. and as means Of accomplish
ing this, good roads are almost para
mount
a conference OF women from an the
states has been called to meet in At
lanta. Georgia, on November lo, to
consider ways and means OF making
the organized efforts OF women most
effective for the betterment of the
public roads Many distinguished wo-
men will be present among whom

Children's Bureau, Mrs DaisG Nc
Laurin-Steyens, President General of

eracy, Mrs. Thomas NJ. owen, chair
man country life committee, gom-
ems department of the National civic
Federation, Mrs Chas J. Haden, of
Georgia, and Mrs Oscar Hundley of
Alabama. The national advisory board

WARM WEATHER PREVAILS.
First Opera House CGte Discontinued
Because Of Extreme Heat.

Because Of Extreme Heat.
The weather FOR September has
been unusually warm. The mercury
has been going from 90 up to as
high as IS the past week. While
the evenings are cool and delightful

needs just such weather to cause it

fast and there promises 10 be a

commanded by General Won Kluck
which on Sept. had reached the dis
rrfct to the north OF Proyins, was
obliged to fall back because of the
danger OF being enveloped.
BY its clever and rapid movements,
this army was succeeding in escap-

throwing itself with the greater part

Oise.
" tie has thus fallen back tlarty-sey-

the meantime the Anglo-French fore

south Of the Marne have not ceased
TO pursue their offensive. Starting,

offensive and the enemy stopped
fighting on the front between the
marsh of St. Gond and the Som,

region of Vitry-le-Francois.
"On the Ornain river, as between

"On our right the situation remains
without notable change in the Vos-

Germans have tried to lombard with

Will Ask $25,OOO Fund
For Conventions Here

With view of adding to the attrac-
tiveness of Washington as a convention
city representatives of the business in
terests have suggested to Commission
er Newman that the Commissioners call
upon Congress for an annual appropria-
tion Of $500 to be paid wholly from
District revenues, for the entertainment
of delegates.
Advocates of the proposition claim
that every citizen of the District bene-
fits by the holding of conventions here
and that merchants, business men and
the trade organizations should not be
called upon to bear such a heavy portion
OF the expense. Washington, they say, is
the ideal convention city. and should be
the meeting place of large gatherings.
Such meetings. 1t is urged, are most
desirable from an advertising viewpoint
and serve to arouse nation wide in
terest in the Capital City.
Commissioner Newman said today
that the suggestion will be presented to
the Board of Commissioners for con-
siderat:on in connection with the prep
aration of the annual estimates
