Heraldic

The supporters chosen by Lord Astor for
his coat-of arms, an Indian and fur trap
per, have aroused some comment among
English heralds-at-arm and heraldsts. In
their science, which is an ancient and con-
servative one, there are no Indians and
trappers. There is an occasional savage
with lion skin and club, or a blackamoor
with turban and scimitar, figures familiar
to the world in the days when heraldry was
being standardized (if the word be permits
sible in connection with so patrician a sub
ject), but Indians and trappers are Of the
New World; therefore, as in the case Of
the farmer gazing upon his first hippo
potamus-"there amt no such supporters"
There were griffins and lions and bears
and eagles TO select from-all the heraldic
menagerie which looks so utterly unlike
any animal that ever was shown in a ZOO
logical garden. "That is no lion," de-
clared heraldist when he saw one at
the ZOO. 81 know, for have drawn them
all my life"
What will be the future Of heraldry af-
ter the war, when, we are assured, truer
democracy will rule the world? II has
managed TO survive the Declaration Of In
dependence and the French Revolution. II
has even thriven upon democratic atmos-
phere, which removed the restrictions
placed upon it's uses. It's abuses, indeed
are far older than is generally known. ST.
Simon already spoke Of them in his "Me-
moirs," Of the unchecked assumption Of
armorisl bearings by people not entitled
TO them, without authorization from the
fountain-head Of all honors, the Sun King.

CFrOp The Philadelphia Led0er)
While the men of London are distinguish
ing themselves in trench warfare, the boys
they left behind them are undesirably in
evidence before the police magistrates. The
boy who behaves himself is able TO command
high price for his services. He fills a
mans shoes and receives mans wages. In
stead Of being threatened and upbraided, he
is courted and wheedled. He can bring home
much more than he earned in the antebellum
days and still put by a tidy sum for himself
or spend it at the toffee shop
Then there is the contrary melancholy
picture Of the bad boy rampant in the dark
eped streets, ilching parcels from the de-
livery vans and making believe in the midst
of his misdcmeanor, that he is vigorously
intercepting German conveys with supplies.
lie finds an outlet for his excess of animal
spirits in a wholly misdirected exuberance.
Il has been shown that for the enlisted Boy
Scouts there is abundant occupation as err
rand boys, messengers, guides and sentries.
Industrial employment of all sorts in all di-
rections, clamors for the utilization of the
energies now dissipatcd in outmannuvrng

courts in a never ending line for larceny re-
Guire from some disciplinary and at the same
time persuasive source a great awakening to
their duty and their opportunity. II is n real
tragedy TO behold 80 much first rate human
material going to waste, like sewage in the
gutter, when it might be saved to virtuous,
useful sources.

An old man sits
In the shadow Of pine tree
In China.
He sees larkspur,
Blue and white,
At the edge of the shadow,
Move in the wind.
His beard moves in the wind.
The pine tree moves in the wind.
Thus water flows
over weeds.
Not all the knives Of the lamp-posts,
Nor the chisels of the long streets,
Nor the mallets of the domes
And high towers,
Can carve
What one star can carve,
Shining through the grape-leaves.

DECLARES Georgetown
GAS FLOW INADEQUATE
R. P. Andrews to Complain to Udli-
hes Commission.

A complaint against the service given
by the Georgetown Gas Light Company
and a petition for a hearing regarding
its alleged inadequacy will be filed this
morning with the Public Utilities Com
mission by r. P Andrews, q prominent
local business man and a patron Of the
Georgetown company.
In his complaint. Mr.. Andrews alleges
that the service now being received by
people who live in the vicinity of Twen-
ty-eighth and streets northwest is en-
tireIy insdequate, both as 70 quality and
quantity.
Mr. Andrews declares it is impossible
to obtain gas for illuminating purposes
when his gas stove is in use and that
whenever gas is burning in more than
one room he is forced to use candles to
light other rooms.
I am not the only one who Is COM
planning of this condition" said Mr.. An
drews, 'for there is general dissatisfac-
tion in our part OF town against the
service. although we pay a much higher
rate than do the people of Washington.
I would have had electric lights Installed
long ago were 1t not for the fact that
the electric company refuses to extend
its service as far as my home"

New York. Sept 25-Sir Richard Craw-
ford, trade adviser to the British En-
bassy, today held a prolonged informal
conference at the Bankers Club with rep
resentative American bankers and bust
ness men, at which the effects Of the Brit
ish mail censorship and the trade black

The conference, Sir Richard said, wac
held at his suggestion, so that he might
get into immediate contact with firms
doing a large foreign business and learn
the nature Of their complaints.
The result of the luncheon. It was an

three or four members, through whom all

CIVIC BODIES AID
IN ARMOR FIGHT
Three Large Associations of
Citizens Join in Campaign.

Added impetus was given Washington S
fight as a site for the location Of the
governments NIooo,ooo armor plant when
three OF the largest citizens associations
of this city-The West End. The Central
and The Aiid-CHy-indorsed the project
and signified their intention to enter the
campaign laun-hed by the Chamber of
Commerce.
All three associations unanimously
adopted resolutions dealing with the pro-
pect. This unanimity sugued well, fo-
other citizen bodies are likely to take the
same action at their next meetings.
That the strip Of land farliliarly known
as Buzzard's Point would prove an ideal
site for the Government plant Is the opin-
ion OF the president OF the Chamber of
Commerce
There are about 20 acres down there,
said President Moran, that could be pur-
chased by the government for a very mod
crate sum. This territory is most un-
slightly and such a plant as the govern
ment proposes building would not only
tend to beautify the locality but would
give the government entire ownership OF
the point, part OF which Is now occupied
by the Arsenal grounds.
"Other features which make this spot
desirable are easy accessibility to the
city proper. On one side there is a canal
through which coal could be shipped from
Cumberland. On the other side there is
water deep enough to float any vessel
that could come up the Potomac River.
The site also is adjacent to the lines OF
two of the largest railroad systems in
the country. Practically no grading
would be necessary.

the smoke law would prevent the work.
ing OF such a plant. President Moran
said:
The new smoke consumers, such as
are being used by laundries, factories and
other industries, have proved that al
most any kind OF production can be
maintained without breaking the smoke

HUGHES ATTACKS
S-HOUR DEFENSE
Wilson Might as Well Be Die

By WILLIAM HOsTER.
international News SerViee.)

Dayton, Ohio. Sept. S.-Charles e.
Hughes tonigrS made a sensational
answer to President wilson's Shadown
Lawn speech Of last Saturday evening
defending the Adsmson eight-hour law.
In effect he asserted that II Mr.. Wilson's s
tendencies continue he might as wen be
elected. dictator OF the nation.
Hanging his reply on a declaration that
there had been too much legislation by
this administration involving compronise
phrases apparently Intended to mean one
thing to one set OF anen to get their votes
and another thing to another set OF men
to allay their fears. Hughes asserted
that civil war lies along the lines Of
such legislation as the Adamson act, and
concluded:
Let no one confuse the American
mind as to the principle Of Legislative
action. It has been the same since the
legislatures first began to sit, and hope
it will remain the same as long as we
continue to have legislative action in
this country. Indeed. II 1t Is abandoned
you might as well wind up your Repub-
lie and appoint a dictator, letting him
be appointed who has the greatest force
to exert to compel obedience to his COM
mands."
The big audience in Memorial Hall here
in which an all-day opening Of the Ohio
campaign was being concluded, rose and
cheered the candidates remarks.
Answering of President Wilson's cita-
ton Of the SO-cent gas case in New YORK
to the effect that there the legislature
hxed the rate without an investigation
of the facts beforehand, Hughes declared
that as counsel for the State in that
matter he had caused a most exhaustive
investigation Of all the facts to be made
before any legislative action was taken.
This, he asserted, was in itself enough
to prove the case against the President s
action through the Adamson act.
Much Of the force OF Hughes address
was lost because OF his seeming reluct-
ance to mention the President by name
or to indicate that he was making reply
TO the Presidents defense of his action.
