A BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY

We have listed with us today one of the most attractive openings in the district for a live one to make money and good money at that. This property Is d brick store, 50x70, with 4-room resi- dence In the rear, situated on a corner lot 50x140 feet. The owner started in business at this To- cation nearly IS years ago, on bor- rowed capital of $500 Today he owns property that pays him over $200 per month. all of which he made and paid for out of this business. He retired from active business 60 days ago, sold out his stock of merchandise and has bought a farm in south Alabama, on which he proposes to take it easy hence forth.
 Ordinarily this place would be entitled and justly so. to command bonus m event of a sale, as the trade is still there and all one has to do is to step right in to an established business and take care of it. However, this won't count in the price, for we are author ized to offer it at real bargain. The store cost s3500 to build and the resi- dence cost $500 and the ground would be cheap at $1000. In addition, the store fixtures complete go in with the deal and these could not be duplicated for s150o. They consist of counters, shelv- ln6S, nanuSoIHe glass SnoWSdSco, Soi'i plete modern meat market outfit and such other fixtures usual to general mercantile business.
 The store is rented now at $35 and the residence at S10 We will sell you the entire plant for 5000, on terms of $500 cash and $500 per year at per cent interest About $3000 stock will be necessary to do a successful business in this location
 Here's an opportunity for some live mer- chant.

Use of Schools on Sunday.

The Board of Education is to be commended
for deferring action upon the question Of permit
ting the schools of Washington to be used for the
purpose of public assemblage Sundays until it
can obtain all the information that is available re-
garding the result of similar experiments in other
cities and gives the subject careful consideration
casual view of the situation would very likely
result in verdict in favor of such use of the
schools; in fact it would appear quite appropriate
to permit the of the buildings for the discus
sion and urtherance of projects for the public ben
eft but since experience is always the surest
guide, the wisdom of the Board in seeking infor-
nation elsewhere is not to be questioned
While there will be general sympathy with
the view that such of the public school build
ings on the Sabbath is unseemly very careful con-
sideration must necessarily be given to the pur-
poses for which the schools are to be used at any
time and Sundays especially. The Board of
Education of course, would be in absolute control
and could be depended upon to exercise due dis
elimination and herein the possibility of i'll feel
ing and friction readily suggests itself The board
might decide that a public meeting for some
specific object could in all propriety be held in
public school building Sunday and the public
might approve with practical unanimity; and yet
the very next application for such permission that
was either granted or denied might cause storm
A gathering in the interest of the eradication of
tuberculosis would doubtless be readily sanctioned
but when the promoters of graceful posture for
strap-hangers the society for the correction Of
pigeon toes were denied the use OF the schools,
they would very likely be disposed to regard them
selves as victims Of unjust discrimination Ger
tain meetings held on Sundays in New York for
instance could never be permitted in the public
schools Of Washington, though the persons inter
ested would resent any imputation that they were
not public benefactors.
1t cannot be doubted that the opening Of the
schools for other than educational purposes would
mean trouble for the school authorities and create
a measure of discord among the citizens. Whether
the benefits derived would outweigh these unde-
srablc conditions has not yet been demonstrated.
1t is gratifying therefore to learn that the Board
of Education is making thorough investigation
before acting, and it may be depended upon to rem
der the right decision.
The Washington herald., 1916-03-03
Delay Which Invites Danger.

Delay in a vote by Congress the question
whether not the government shall warn its citi-
zens that they must abandon their rights in obed-
ence to the demands of Germany and Austria is,
if not dangerous at least inimical to American in
terests at a critical moment Delay is not neces-
sary and should not be permitted, because in Ber-
lin and Vienna it gives the impression that Con-
gress is waverng between support of the President
and support the Teutonic Emperors
If the leaders of the Presidents own party do
not bring the necessary resolution before the two
Houses at once that imperative duty should be
taken out of their hands by the Republicans and
performed with dispatch. But, as Senator Lodge
said yesterday and as The Herald has said, it is
not party question. 1t is question whether the
Legislative bodies of this government are to say to
the President you are wrong and the Kaiser is
right" or whether they arc to say you right
and the Kaiser is wrong" The issue is no broader.
The very agitation of the question renders a
sweeping vote of confidence in the President i'm
peratve, unless wish to notify Germany and
Austria that our government has collapsed over
the submarine issue. Congress is fully aware Of
the object of the Presidents endeavors during a
whole year of negotiation over our rights on the
high seas. 1t cannot at this time hold him up to
the Teutonic governments repudiated and disarmed.
Then why not act instantly and unanimously?
Every day Of delay will lessen the effect of vote
Of confidence That he has already waited two
days for compliance with his urgent request is
astounding. That the Democratic leaders fear the
result of vote is inconceivabe. If they believe
that the Kaiser command majority against
the President in Senate or House their estimate
of the patriotism of the nations statesmen is poor
indeed. No such roll of dishonor is possible.
Men in Congress have expressed the fear that
the Presidents policy may lead to war. Doubtless
they are prematurely frightened into expressing in
effect preference for policy that leads inevitably
to dshonor. But since they are so keen to dis
cover the possibility of war in the Presidents
course is it possible they cannot see in their own
course an unmistakable invitation to Teutonic
aggression? Or would they surrender all and pro-
claim to the world the abandonment of our trad-
tons and ideals and the supplanting of the
Monroe doctrine by the new doctrine of peace at
any price?

Not in Line OF Duty,

An unusual case has engaged the at
tention Of the naval authorities. being
that of a naval officer who met his
death while driving his automobile at
night over the public roads at what is
described as an excessive speed. The
death under such circumstances
brought up the question of whether
this was in line of duty" with the eff
feet of emitting the beneficiary named
by the officer to receive the six months
gratuity of pay.
The investigation showed that the
officer was indulging 'fn a measured
race with the driver of another au.o-
mobile and that the speed attained by
his machine was siXty-fve miles an
hour. The Navy Department was not
able to discern in the fatality anything
which bore a relation to what is ordi-
narily regarded as death in Tine of
duty" and there was nothing else to
do but to decide that this dangerous
and reckless speed was the direct and
proNimate cause OF his death and that
his death was not in the line of duty
and was due to his own misconduct"
