Hundred Voices VIII Sing.
Music. lighting. and symbolic friezes
will add to the splendor of the great
masses Of people a touch of harmony
necessary to the ensemble. a chorus Of
100 women's voices will sing as Nthe
frie=es appear between the episodes.
The pageant itself is an innovation. For
the first time the pageant form has been
used to interpret the life of an individual.
Heretofore. the revival of this art
which sprang up in the country about ten
years ago. has been used in two ways
either TO interpret the history Of a COM
munity or to interpret a social idea.
Miss MacKaye says OF her pageant: II
have sought to give a faithful interpre-
tation OF the life of this great leader. A
pla. would not compass It Her more
than fifty years of public life were so
filed with dramatic Incidents that even
the pageant form is Inadequate. Still in
the ten episodes ] believe the audience
cannot fail to admire the truly militant
spirit Of this great pioneer. Hers was
essentially a life OF combat. and It was
because / believe so firmly in the neces-
sity OF the militant spirit in carrying for
ward any great movement that l was in
spired to write the pageant"
Mrs. Randolph Keith Forrest is the as
sistant director of the pageant The
chairmen of the important committees
are: Costumes, Mrs. William S. Moore:

pants. Mrs. W. T. Burch: lighting. Mr..

CITIZENS URGE
LOCAL SUFFRAGE
East Washington Association
Would Have People Elect
Five Commissioners.
RESOLUTION Is ADOPTED
Real Estate Here Overassessed. De-
cIares Charles A. Shield,-Of-
6cials Bullied. Is Charge.

A resolution urging Congress to give
citizens Of the District the right Of suf-
| frage and allow them to elect five COM
nltssioners to administer the affairs OF
Washington was passed last night by the
| East Washington Citizens Association
at a meeting held at Sl4 Pennsylvania
avenue southeast. The resolution was
offered by Capt. w. NJ. Potter and was
originally embodied in another resolu.
ton offered by him regarding the fiscal
relations between the District Govern
ment and the United States.
When the resolution was offered In Its
original form II was opposed by Charles
A. Shields and several other members
who declared that the committee now
investigating the fiscal relations Of the
District empowered only to consider
those relations and could not take up
the suffrage question.
BY agreement the resolution then was
read and voted upon paragraph by para
graph, that part OF 1t relating to suf-
frage being adopted and the rest de-
teated.
Text of Resolution.
The resolution adopted read as follows:
Resolved. by the East Washington Citi-
zens' Association. in meeting assembled,
that the citizens of the District be given
the right of suffrage enabling them to
elect the officers who shall administer
the laws governing said District and that
such officers shall be FIVE commissioners
elected by the citizens of the District
OF Columbia"
In the course OF the heated discussion
over that part Of the original resolution
dealing with the fiscal relations of the
District and Federal governments.
Charles A. Shields declared 'the trouble
in Washington today is that real estate
is overassessed. The assessors probably
were told TO raise the assessments be-
cause the Commissioners have been
bullied by certain members OF Congress. -
A letter was y from the Commits
sloners acknowledging receipt OF a letter
from the association requesting that a
date be set for a public hearing to de-
termine the sentiment of those princi-
pally and directly interested in the Sc
lection of a site for the new Eastern
High school and urging the selection of
reservation Il for that purpose.
Three new members were admitted.
They were Theodore Walter, J. E. Merg-
ner and Arthur n. Mitchell.

BUILD FOR THE FUTURE.

None of us stands still. II we
are not going ahead. We are drift
ing backward. And when an indi-
vidual or a business begins to drift
backward, they are headed straight
for the scrap heap on high gear.
How to GET AHEAD" is the
problem which confronts each of
US every day. Mostly this problem
rests with ourselves. with our own
efforts-bat there are many outside
aids to success which can be used.
One of the most effective ways is
TO LET FOLKS KNOW OF YOUR
CAPABILITIES-of what you can
do for them.
II you are a business man, you
need to be as regular and system
attic in this particular as the boy
starting out.
The merchant can tell about his
store. his services. his goods-can
tell what he can do for people, in
this newspaper every day. Adver-
tisements in large space are like an
express eleyator-they're speedy in
getting one to the top, but IL the
business is of a character which
will not warrant large advertise

Coppers Don New Uniforms.

Washington policemen donned their
new winter uniforms yesterday. The
principal feature of the new uniform is
the overcoat, which is cut along mill
tary lines. The coat has what is known
as a revolver pocket, which gives the
policeman immediate access to his pistol.
The new top coat also permits the po-
liceman 10 wear an undercoat, which
could not be done when the old coat was
in vogue. By wearing an undercoat, the
policeman may remove his top coat and
still be in uniform.
