High Relish of Disgust.

Amongst the various assumptions of

and men have practiced, there is none
that raises n higher relish of disgust
than to see disappointed inveteraey

DISTRICT HOTELS
START 'MEATLESS
TUESDAYS TODAY

Washington hotels are squarely behind
the Food Administration in its efforts
to conserve the meat supply. and three
Of them today began the observance Of
''Meatless Tuesdays" A fourth will
inaugurate the meatless day next week.
All OF them plan 10 observe "Wheatless
Wednesdays" as suggested by the ad-
ministration.
Our first meatless day started on in
fine shape" said Manager Hight Of the
New Willard. AT breakfast and lunch
we had printed on the menu cards a re-
quest for cooperation on the part Of the
public. and / am safe in saying that
not more than / per cent OF our patrons
objected to having substitutes for their
usual meats.
We want the public to know that 1t
does not beneft the hotels to have meat
less or wheatless days. The more food
we sell. the greater our profits. We are
taking this course with a view to aiding
the Food Administration"
George F. Schutt, president Of the Eb-
bitt Company. stated that 'it was high
ly gratifying to see the fine spirit shown
by patrons at the Ebbitt" No beef,
pork. mutton. lamb, or pork products are
being served there on Tuesdays.
E. 7. Weston. manager Of the Raleigh
Hotel. said that the Raleigh is going to
do everything possible TO aid the Food
Administration. No meats were served
there today. and the printed requests
bore god fruit. he said, at both break
fast and lunch.

WAR PHOTOS SHOW
/ MAN Who KILLED
I 100 IN ONE DAY

Corporal Catfee, OF the Canadian
overseas forces, was stiffiy waving an
arm at a west front battle photo
graph at Rauscher's galleries, Con-
necticut avenue and L street north
west, today, when Major ]. T Boehm,
Of the same contingent, came up be-
hind him.
Instantly Corporal Caffee started to
run, but he was checked by the
major and dragged back to the photo
-Sraph.
Here, ladies' and gentlemen" said
Major Boehm, 'is a photograph Of
part of our trenches at the battle of
the Somme, and the man in the pic
ture you see lighting his pipe is Cor
poral Caffee, who now stands before
you. Beside him is the -ewis ma
chine gun, with which he killed more
than one hundred Germans in one
afternoon"
And there stood Corporal Caffee.
who used to be a clerk in a Toronto
office, his face blushing crimson.
Major Boehm was showing the
crowd the Canadian war pictures
taken on the west front and now be-
ing exhibited for the benefit OF the
Canadian memorial war fund for
wounded.
Major Boehm also showed his mu-
scum OF war relices. He has a belt
from a dead German that proves quite
incontestibly that the German army
belts actually have the motto "GOtt
Nit Uns" (God with us) stamped into
them.
Also. he showed a signboard captur-
ed in a German trench. It was finely
beveled and smoothed, and the words
had been painted with as much care
as though the sign was to stand for
years. The sign read, in German:
Room 6-This room contains TWEEN
ty-six boards and a table"
The twenty-six boards and the table
would hardly pay for the cost of such
a sign.

Today Is Fire Pre-
VentiOn Day

Today is Fire Prevention Day
throughout this country. II is de-
signed to bring home to the people
in a special manner the great an
nusl destruction OF property by
fire and to direct their minds to
its prevention. Fire Prevention
Day is placed on the anniversary
Of the great Chicago fire and this
year the day has a peculiar sig
nlfcance.
Suppose an airship from Ger
many should drop a bomb on any
OF our cities and destroy ten
million dollars worth OF property.
This would be startling news to
everyone in the country, and yet
during the year this country loses,
by preventable fires, many times
this amount. Always economical
ly important, this year it becomes
a patriotic service for each and
every person to most carefully
provide against fires in the home,
business, office, factory or store.
In this connection. the words OF
President Wilson are of the
greater force on the occasion Of
Fire Prevention Day.
PreventAble FIRE Is more than q private
misfortune. II Is a public dersliction.
Al z time like this Of emergency and Of
manifest necessity for the conservation Of
national resources, II is more than ever
4 matter Of deep and pressing conss-
quenee that every means should be taken
TO prevent this evil.

area, containing coal, iron and pipe
clay, is to be shortly developed on a
very large scale. A company was in
corpOrated on December 8 last, and is
of some well known finan-
cial and mining men. At present they
are engaged in completing the leases
on virtually the whole of the mineral
area. They are to be divided into
three sections-one for developing the
coal one for the iron ore, and the
other for constructing wide-gauge
railway from Belturbet and Drumind,
via Ballinamore. Drumshambo, Arigna
and Slievenarin mineral areas, thence
