PECULIAR COINCIDENCE.
Warrington Man Finds Cut of Old
Friend in Out of the Way Place.

1t is a small world. and seldom it is
that a man can completely get out of
touch with his friends. A remarkable
coincidence in which The Washington
Herald figured a short time ago illus
trates this time-honored adage.
On April 5 last the Togsery Shop, a
mems clothing and furnishing store at
6o2-604 Ninth street, ran an ad. in The
Herald in which there was picture of
Mr.. Sol Herzos. proprietor of the Tog
gerry Shop, and his salemen. A few days
later Mr.. Martin Keeling, riding the
range through the mesquite bushes and
cactus of New Mexico. dismounted at
water hole at the end of a days work
and found the remnants and debris of
luncheon that a party of autoists had
left the day before. Scattered around
we're some scraps of Denver papers and
a piece Of The Washington Herald which
contained just the pictures in the Tog-
gerry Shop ad. The name of Roland Car
ter, one of the statesmen. was the only
printed matter on it outside of The Her
aid date line.
Mr.. Keeling is a personal friend of
Mr.. Carriers. and he Immediately recog-
nizcd the picture and wrote him about
his strange find.

ATTACKS CONTRACT SYSTEM.
DR.. II. E. Ames Assails Present
Method of Refuse Removal.

"ctnOO OI ne1use ftc"OVal.
DR.. H. E. Ames. U. s. N, retired, at
tackled the contract system Of removing
refuse from the District as "old-fash-
toned. unsatisfactory and slow in an
address last night before the George
town Citizens Association. DR.. Ames.
speaking as chairman of the committee
on public health. asserted that under the
present system all refuse is hauled 'out
into the northeast section of the city
and sometimes a wagonload Of refuse
Is carried five or six miles"
He declared that hauling refuse such
long distance is "a waste of time"
DIR. Ames said: THE District should
own its own crematory; 1t should estab-
lish dumps in various sections of the
city to which refuse could be removed
promptly and destroyed. and the city
should itself dispose of all refuse instead
Of having this work done by contract
ors."
DIR. Ames offered a resolution that a
pamphlet telling how hy-breeding may
be prevented be distributed in George
town. This resolution was adopted.
Ralph Collins. chairman of a special
Harris in charge Of public buildings and
grounds had promised to build two ten
mis- courts in Montrose Park in addition
to the one court now in use. The asso-
citation adopted a resolution thanking
Col Harris for the two tennis courts and
the three additional band concerts. The
next meeting of the association will be
held in October.

School Committee Called
for Friday.
DISCUSSION IS ASKED
Frederick A. Tanning Believes Or
sanization Should Express
Its Views.

Believing Rule As, the Board of Ed
ucation regulation which discharges
women teachers upon marriage, is a
live issue" and that the Washing
ton Board of Trade should take ac-
ton on it. Frederick A. FenninG.
chairman of the public schools COM
mittee of the organization, has called
a meeting of his committee for next
Friday to discuss the question.
'Other organizations have gone on
record as for or against Rule Al"
Mr.. Fenning said. land l believe the
Board of Trade should do likewise.
NY mind is open on the matter
Each of the twenty-five members
of the committee received a copy of
the school directors regulation along
with the notice that the meeting had
been called. They were asked to give
the matter thought and be prepared
to express their views.
Only the members of the commit
tee are to take part in the discuss
ion.
Dr. ]. S. Arnold of the committee.
declared he had formed no opinion
about the rule and declined to COM
ment upon it, for publication. from
a medical viewpoint.
W. H. GUIDE, former president of
the Chamber of Commerce, and 4
member of the committee. also said
he had formed no opinion.
The suit brought against the Board
Of Education by Mrs. Gladys Strong
Hellman, a former teacher in the
schools, who was discharged under
the provisions of Rule As, has not yet
been aired in the courts. The case
has been postponed twice. The d.

next week why Mrs. Hellman should
not be reinstated.
At the committee meeting Friday
members also will take up the con-
struction of roofing on some Of the school
buildings.

State street stores, owners of loop
skyscrapers and corporation lawyers
put out a feeler yesterday. They
have organized the Illinois Taxpay-
ers' Alliance and its first bulletin
says taxes are too high and tax
money is not spent properly.
Among the directors Of the alliance
are Seymour Morris, a taxdodger who
refused to pay taxes on the 81, $780,
900 worth of notes he held for the
Letter estate. Brought into court by
Hoyne's assistant, Hayden N. Bell,
Morris consented to schedule the
notes and pay taxes if prosecution
was dropped, which was done.
Other directors of the Illinois Tax
payers Alliance are John T. Pirie,
Jr., of Carson, -Pirie, Scott & Co. and
the State Street Merchants associa-
ton; Augustus S. Peabody of the 10
cal coal trust; A. G. Honore, one Of
the owners of the State street land
on which the Palmer house stands;
Joseph H. Defrees of the Association
of Commerce. Every big business
organization has one of its men as a
director of the alliance.
Hoyne's prosecution of taxdodgers
the past year has resulted in a S15,-
100000 increase of assessed vaIua-
tons going onto the tax books
through the number of persons as
sessed has decreased by $4,000.
