SAYS BEAUTY Of BIBLE
STORIES MUST Be SHOWN
Miss Marietta Stockard Tells How
Children May Be Made to
Believe in Them.

Taking as her topic THE Vitalization
of Bible Stories." Miss Marietta Stock
ard lecturer in the department of edu-
cation of George Washington Univer-
sity, in an address before the Women's
Alliance of All Souls Unitarian Church
this morning declared that in order to
have children believe in the Bible
stories, they must be shown wherein
they are far more beautiful than those
of other religions than the Christian.
and wherein they are logically true.
She cited as an instance of this the story
of the creation, where she pointed out
that the Bible gives a far more beauti-
full account than the Koran of Mo-
hammedanism or the books OF other
religions.
She went on to declare that there are
three classes of modern homes under
the general classification of Christian
in which the Bible is discussed at all.
In the first class the children of the
home are taught that the teachings in
the stories in the Bible are absolute
facts In the second class they are
taught that the stories are lies, and, in
addition, there is a third class, in
which the parents distinguish for the
children those stories they think i'm
probable from those of truth.

ance before the lecture plans were

TRACK EXTENSION
HEARING IS HELD
Proposed 18th Street Project
Both Strongly Advocated
and Protested.
MANY ADVANTAGES CITED

Proposed extension of the tracks of the
Capital Traction Company from Penn
sylvania avenue to Potomac Park was
strongly advocated and also protested
against by a number of persons who
attended hearing given by the public
utilities commission today.
The companys original suggestion was
for a double track construction on 18th
street, with terminal at the triangle
bounded by Virginia avenue. B and 18th
streets. At the suggestion of the COM
mission, it altered the plan so as to
provide for single tracks on 18th and
10th streets.
Representatives of several govern
ment buildings and other large struc-
lures south of Pennsylvania avenue
which would be benefited by the pro-
posed new service, advocated 1aVoraple
action on the application.
Speak in Favor of Plan.
Chief Clerk E. ]. Ayers of the Inte-
rior Department, which soon will house
1,500 clerks in the new building at 18th
and f streets; Representatives of the
Pan-American Union and D. A. r.
buildings, the Chamber of Commerce
and Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions spoke in favor of the project.
Among the protestants were property
owners along 18th and 18th streets.
While admitting the need Of car serv-
ice in that section, they suggested that
the extension be built along 18th street
for the reason that it is not resi-
Dental thoroughfare. This alternative
plan was indorsed by Daniel O'Cal-
laghan, Adolph Loehl, r. H. Webb. AL
2 Il
others.
]. H Hanna. vice president of the
company, stated that the 18th street
extension had been under consideration
by the company, but that protests also
had been made against this proposed
route.
He stated that 1t is the company's 8
desire to extend its lines south of the
Avenue in order to provide service for
the large number of Washingtonians
employed in the government buildings
in that vicinity, as well as to afford
transportation facilities to the munich
Cites Another Benefit.
Mr. Hanna explained that another
important benefit that will be derived
from the proposed improvement will
be the placing of additional construc-
ton at 18th street and New York ave-
nue., as a result of which much of the
14th street traffic that now goes south
over 18th street can be diverted west
over Pennsylvania avenue.
In fact, it is planned to employ 14th
street cars in the proposed new service,
and this. it is believed, will greatly aid
in reducing congested traffic at 18th
street and New York avenue.
George L. Hamilton, president of the
company, said that the proposed Poto-
mac Park extension had been under
consideration for some time and that
officials of the company and the Dis
trict Commissioners were considering
plans for asking Congress for the legis-
lation authorizing the Improvement
when the public utilities commission
was created. The commission probab bly,
will act on the application within

KENNEDY URGES
MORE PROBATION
AGAINST PARALYSIS

Provision for more rigid health
precautions against the bringing Of
infantile paralysis to Pensacola, and
other sections of the state has been
suggested to the board of health by
DIR. S. R. Mallory Kennedy, men,
Der of the board.
In discussing the precautions of
the board against the importation Of
the disease, DIR. Kennedy said:
"The state board of health is st
present examining every child under
sixteen years of age, taking their
names and addresses, and having
their temperature taken twice day
during the incubation period. Of
course, if case develops somewhere
in the country districts removed from
railroad, you can see how futile it
would be to try to keep people from
this infected neighborhood out of the
city unless the state should throw
a Gordon around the county and place
guards at every cross road. have
recommended to the state health off,
GER the efficacy of requiring a health
certificate issued by some recognized
person in authority for every child
entering the state, and the placing of
a ban against all children under four
teen years of age coming from an
infected section.
"This in addition to the rigid in
spection, and the taking Of tempera-
lures of all children entering the
state will, think, be sufficient. In
fantile paralysis is present in the
majority of the states all the year
round, and it would be extremely rad
ical to declare a quarantine against
any city or town for the reason that
one or two cases developed in thai
city or town.
