Glen Echo Park.

With an average daily attendance
I that is approximately five thousand
| Glen Echo park is catering to the
| largest crowds in its history and
i nightly the grounds are thrOnged with
] visitors seeking amusement and an
escape from the heat that for the
| past week has made out-of-door fun
doubly attractive.
Last night another Monday night
crowd was out in force. Long before
dark the cars outward bound from the
city all had their full quota of pas
sengers en- route to the resort that
nestles in the woods high up over
the Potomac.
As usual the fun started with the
free exhibition of motion pictures out
in the open and as soon as the last
one had been shown the crowd scat
tered to their favorite amusements.
Many of them hurried to the big pa
vilion where all the rest of the even
ing the floor was filled for every num-
Der the big orchestra played.
Others started the rush for the
gravity where until nearly midnight
there was always a line waiting to
take the places vacated by those
who made trip after trip over the
speedy course high UP over the trees.
Still others gave the racing derby
racer a rush" while the midway
catered to hundreds who shot the
slides, rode the firefly and did all
OF the other stunts.
With number of belated outings
scheduled for the week the daytime
attendance promises to keep up with
that at night. No charge for admis-
sion is made and a number of free
features are on the daily bill.

Keith's-EaudeyiIIe.

The bill at Keith's this week is ex-
ceptionally good. with scarcely fea-
ture that Is not more than usually
entertaining. Musical interest is up
permost. owing to the presence Of the
Melstersingers. Toots Paka's Ha-
waiians and Messrs. Waller and
Thompson.
The Meistersingers are a triple quar-
tet of male voices from New England,
where deep bassos and meIodious ten
ors seem to grow and attune them
selves aturally to the old, familiar
airs our mothers used to sing Tenor
solos by Arthur F. Cole and Harold
). Tripp and a bass solo by A. Cam
eron Steele are given in addition to
the several delightful choral numbers.
The famous Toots Paka, wo is said
to have started the craze for Hawaiian
melodies, appears in person in a
characteristic hula" dance, while her
four native Hawaiian assistants offer
examples of their peculiar instrument
tai and vocal skill. with its exotic,
semibarbaric charm.
Harry Waller is a young violinist
Of pleasing personality and evident
talent. He is accompanied on the
piano by George Dixon Thompson,
who offers a well-executed solo on his
own account.

A Beautiful Complexion
For Only rs Cents

Keep on using expensive creams
and washes and ointments II you want
to-" says Peterson. ITS none of my
business how you squander your
money, but if you really want to get
rid Of pimples, facial blemishes of any
kind or any skin disease, my honest
advice Is to get a twenty-five cent
box Of PetersOn's Ointment today
Men and women: II you want a COM
plexion clean and clear. soft and
velvety; one that will compel the
admiration OF all the people you meet,
start to use Peterson's Ointment to-
night-use it freely, rubbing well into
the skin Continue for a week or until
every pimple, blackhead. eruption or
rash is gone.
Don't fail to try it and you can take
my word for it you'll be proud of your
lovely skin and your friends will envy
your bewitching complexion. Any
fair minded druggist will back uu
what Peterson says because he is au-
thorized to return your money without
question II Peterson's Ointment doesn't

First Night at Theaters
Polss-aThe STORY of the Rosary..

PolSs-"The story of the Rosary
THE Story of the Rosary" the
story of a woman's devotion to her
soldier husband, went straight home
last night at Polls Theater to an aud
ierce fairly well sprinkled with the
uniform of the army, and not a few
mothers and sweethearts present.
There Is nothing new about the
story. but there Is something that will
always be new and especially appeal
ing in this time of war. While it tells
''the same old story" it also tells
about treachery. the platonlc love OF
one man for another and brings the
specter of war nearer to one than
any other play could do.
Much of the appeal is centered about
Venetia, daughter of the Prince De
Saban, played by Miss Florence Rit-
tenhouse. Not since Polls opened has
Miss Rittenhouse had part which
fitted her so well and which she acted
so perfectly.
At the same time we must not for
get Robert w. Frazer, who. as Capt.
Paul Roman, went away to wal
leaving his bride OF a few hours. her
heart loaded with grief and his beat
ing with JOY and a great hope that he
might return alive and claim her. He
does return. but it is a heart-breaking
return. He finds the woman he loved
irTevocably placed. She believed him
dead and entered a convent. Ralph
Remley as Karl La Rose. the rejuve-
mated drunkard and protector of his
friends wife. was well rewarded for
his work by numerous encores.

dore and others of the Polls cast put

Provost Marshal that the new ma
tional army will be called out In in
crements of 10000 men, and not in
one group OF 10000 as was at first
supposed.
By thus dividing the men, not only
will their handling be facilitated. but
an economic advantage will result.
Men whose business is necessary to
the government may be spared from
the first increment. More particularly
in vital war Industries or on the
farms workmen and harvest hands
can be called gradually, thus pre-
venting a wholesale depopulation in

LAWYER BODY READY

Meeting Here. Makes Exemption
Board Members Ready for Claims.

Lawyers appointed by the provost

| on exemption appeals, met last night
in the board room of the District
! Building. to discuss methods to be fol-
lowed when the appeals for exemtion
begin coming in.
! The first appeal for exemption came
to the District board yesterday. when
Roger Birdsell. who is working for the
Fuller Construction Company. on

Kans.. asked for exemption o! the
grounds that he is aiding the United
states in the prosecution of the war.

be taken in the apportioning of men

declared yesterday that he expected

| part of next week.
The district board Is now holding
several names ready for certification
TO the district adjutant general, and
Is waiting for the time limit OF ap-
peals TO expire. Men are allowed from

Claims for exemption have been ar

Will in all probability be compelled to
start in on a third batch of names be-
fore the latter part of the week. Many
OF the elfgibles OF the third precinct
are government employees.
The figures of the men examined
during the past week and those of
the week previous show that ap-
proNimately the same number were
examined and that exemption claims
were filed IN nearly the same ratio.
The work of the exemption boards
in the different precincts proceeded
yesterday with about the same rate or
speed as usual. A few men who dio
not answer the summons to appear
before the boards, declared that there
had been an error on the part of tn,

notifications and they had received
