SATURDAY HALF HOLIDAY
FOR D. c. STORES URGED
Federal Employees Union Gets Sup
port From Several Large Mer-
camille Establishments.

Saturday half holidays for employees Of
the department stores during the sum-
mer months is urged by the Federal
Employees Union. At a meeting Fri
day evening a committee was appoint
ed to conduct campaign to secure this
holiday. The committee consists of
Miss Lillian M Lewis Of the children's
bureau. Department of Labor; Miss
Florence P. Smith of the Department
of Agriculture and James Y. Hamilton
of the general land office.
The committee will endeavor to pre-
suade the owners of the large stores
Of the city to close on Saturday after
moons during the summer so that their
employees may have an afternoon OF
rest. 1t will strive to induce the gov
ernment employees, particularly the
members of the Federal Employees
Union. to discontinue shopping on Sat
urday afternoon. Several of the larger
stores already have agreed to close on
Saturday afternoons during July and
August, it is stated, and it Is expected
that many others will do SO at an early
date The cooperation of the general
public is earnestly desired by the com
mittee in the effort to secure this holf-
day for these employees during the hot
summer months.
The board of representatives OF the
union have adopted resolutions favor
ing the closing of the stores Saturday
afternoons during July and August.

Early Morning

The early mornings glory has
baff1ed all the potes; no one can
chant its glory in comprehensive
notes. I'd fain describe its splen-
dor, but when l take my pen, |
ruin a suspender, and give it up
again. For cen bard of Avon
might punch his golden Tyre un-
til he grew a SPAWN and felt his
muscles tire-he could not do it
Justice; no bard can do that same,
although his marble bust is
perched in the Hall of Fame. A
Milton or a Sperser might write
majestic junk, and then methinks
the censor would mark the prod
uct Bunk" Some themes are far
too lofty for mortal words, |
think and no one but softy will
splatter them with ink. And when
| see the morning, the slowly ris-
ing sun, whose first rays are
adorning the landscape, green and
dun; the never-ending wonder
that in the dawning lies, when
Nights wells torn asunder, dis
closing cleaning skies. I view
the scene of splendor, but when
an ode I'd sing, l spoil a good
suspender, and cannot chant a
thing. WALT MASON.

The States Exposition Project.
,e Editor Of The Star

To the Editor of The Star:
In a communication in The Star of
June % I stated that it was gratifying
to know an important committee of the
United States Senate had seen the pos
sibilities of the permanent exposition
plan and favored it's adoption 1t is fur
ther gratifying to see that citizens and
business men of Washington are be-
ginning to "sit up and take notice" Of
this proposition. which may mean so
much to them, and that the states are
being asked to take an interest and
help along the project. But 1T seems to
me that it is very narrow. restricted
the exposition buildings on the down
town streets or avenues, when every
state would need not less than one
acre, and some would want more, while
the commercial nations of the world
would need two, three, Ave or ten acres
upon which to exhibit their mining,
agricultural and other varied indus
tries. If Senator Works and his COM
mittee could see the plans, as fully
elaborated by L. S. Perkins of the De-
partment of Justice, do not believe he
or they would think OF conf1ntng the
exposition to city streets and avenues
of Washington, either northwest, north
tain that to make the plan come up to
approach it's possibilities there will be
needed not less than eighty acres of
land and this land Is available inside
the District of Columbia at much less
cost than the lots and houses necessary
to be condemned in order to place the
buildings on streets and avenues down
inside of the city-even south OF the
Capitol building.

Good Material for an Army.

To the Editor Of The Star:
One way to avoid the practical ne
cessity Of a certain amount of training
and seasoning of our volunteers or
state troops before sending them to the
front is to first call upon those who
are now by education, vocation or
training ready for active service. The
preliminary work incident to the mob
ilization of volunteers is for the dual
purpose of acquiring facility in drilling
and handling firearms. and secondly
to harden the muscles. enforce exer-
else and increase the power of en-
durance. Taking up these objects OF
training In the reverse order in which
have named them, 1t occurs to me
that the army of trained, athletic,
are ready now to take the field and
endure every test upon their physical
constitutions and capacity for instant
and effective action. There are sixteen
clubs in the two major leagues. the
American and tho National. and in ad-
dition there 10 the American Associa-
ton League. the Southern and the
South Atlantic leagues and twenty-five
state leagues. averaging six clubs to
the league. The major leagues of six
the club. or 2s8 men; the American.
the Southern and the South Atlantic
leagues would represent as many more,
or nearly 600 trained athletes To that
number must be added the average of
six clubs to each of twenty-five state
leagues, averaging twelve men to the
club. or 800 men. which added to the
800 would give the country for instant
service nearly $500 men. who with
brave hearts and trained nerves and
muscles would make a record Of which
We would all be proud.
The next source of quick relief could
come from the juniors. seniors and re-
cent graduates of the seventeen dis
tinguished military colleges" and tho
eleven honor military schools" re-
Gently designated by the chief of staff
of the United States Army. from which
officers for the regular army are detai.-
ed for active service or as professors
Of military science and tactics.
These selections have just been
made, as 10 done annually. upon the
report Of the board OF officers appoint
ed for that purpose. The colleges and
schools named are located in states
north. south, east and west. with no
preponderance in favor OF any section
of the country. as the recent list ap-
pears. although that feature Of the In
spection no doubt played little. II any.
part in the selections. The fact simp.J
some Of 'our boys" from all parts of
the republic.
This review would indicate that from
these sources we are better trained for
quick and ehicient action and endur-
ance than the general public seems to
think. JOHN G. CAPERS.
