Vicious Proverbs.
rom the Christian Endeavor World.

From the Chf1Sttan EnQedNOF Woiu
There are some proverbs that are
used only to bolster unworthy thoughts
or words or actions. Here is one of
them: Charity begins at home. OF
course 1t does. but no one says that to
himself. or says 1t out loud. who does
not wish to excuse some mean and
parsimonious action. Every really gen
erous man will. of course begin his
charities at home; but he will never
think of mentioning the fact as rea-
son for not giving and doing all that
he can for people and causes outside
his home.
Business is business" To be sure
it is but no one deems 1t necessary to
state that fact unless he is doing or
intends to do something hard. cold and
unfeeling, or else something oblique
or shady. II cruel landlord intends
to turn a widow and her family into
the street he is very likely to remark
as he proceeds to do it. Business is
business If promoter seeks to
work off some worthless stocks on an
unsuspecting victim. he is likely to re-
mark that business is business and
that every one must look out for him
self If a money shark forecloses on
poor man who cannot pay an ex-
orbitant interest. he is sure to tell YOU

is widely known that Congress has
provided only $4,000, the same rental
as for the current year. Unless the
rent rema inns the same, the guard will

BY HOWARD S. FISK.

vHE most enjoyable run Of the
season was made last Sunday
by the Washington Motor
Cycle Club to Seneca locks on
the C. & o. canal. The route
led through Chevy Chase, Rockville.
Gaithersburg, and at Jamestown a
turn was made to the left. bringing the
club to Seneca in one hour and twenty
minutes after leaving the clubrooms on
9Th street. At Seneca the Potomac river
spreads out and is fully one-half mile
wide.
The morning was spent in fishing,
while several of the more ardent base
ball fans were warming up for the
game scheduled for the afternoon The
honor of catching the first fish of the
day fell to Arthur Seabrook and by the
noise he made in landing 1t, one would
think he had caught a whale.
Just to whet our appetite for the
chicken dinner" was the way Sam Ray
and John Willis described their morn
ing plunge in the canal, and if appear
ances are not deceiving 1t is a good
thing all did not take a plunge.
After enjoying a bountiful chicken
dinner. prepared a la Maryland. several
pictures OF the bunch" were taken
and then the base ball game was called.
The teams playing were the Indians
and the Splitdorfs. with Heavy" Hip
pier and Luce" McCreight as captains,
respectively. The Indians showed
dams caused them to do a war dance
around the vanquished. The features
of the game were the pitching Of Coch-
rane and the fielding of Ashbrooke.

with much solemnity that. though II 10
hard. yet business is business
We must play the game" This,
though sometimes used in a good sense,
often means in business parlance that
we must he as mean and sharp and un-
trustworthy as other bad men. Thev

not lose. We must play II. too. They

actions. so we must smother ours. They

Motor Cycle Week Designated.

May Is to 20 has been oficially desig-
mated as motor cycle week all over the
United States. This 10 not only to be a
week when every dealer will endeavor
to establish q record for the sale OF

week when every phase Of motor cycle
life will be emphasized. The various
commercial uses of the two-wheeler
will be demonstrated. the pleasures to
be derived from the motor cycle, the
numerous Advantages of belonging to
q motor cycle club and the value OF
afiiliation with Federation of American
Motor Cyclists will all be brought to
the attention of the public.
1t 10 planned that during this ma
tional motor cycle week one day shall
be set aside for each phase OF motor
cycle activities and on that day one
particular feature of the two-vheeler
will be demonstrated all over the coun-
try. from coast to coast and from gulf
to lakes. For example, Sunday, May
16, is to be known as Club day, when
the members Of every motor cycle club
are expected to get together for some
sort Of celebration. And each club IL
to make 1t . point to see that all nom
club riders are invited to participate
and thereby interest them in the &C.
tivitiss Of the organization. Then on
Monday comes demonstration day,
Tuesday will be commercial day,
Wednesday carnival day. Thursday la
dies day. Friday bicycle day and sat-
urday THE King Of sDests'' day.

approaching. The question of the lease
of the Center Market armory will be
settled first. and it is proba BILE that a
number of conferences will be held be-
tween officers of the guard and those
who lease the market armory over the
question of rent.
The National Guard has been paying
$4,000 year for the armory. but this
year the market company sought TO
have the National Guard officers and
the Commissioners of the District in
clu6e in their estimates one for $4,000
increase in the rent for the fiscal year
beginning July l. The officers, the guard
and the Commissioners all baked at
paving such rent for thelnadequate and
unsa tisfa Glory facilities furnished in the
Center Market armory. The result was
that the increase was not requested of
Congress
However, during the week the market
company sent the leases to National
Guard headquarters to be signed for
the next fiscal year. which provide for
