WOMAN GOLFERS IN PLAY
FOR STAR CUP TOMORROW
Best Players of Washington Will
Compete in Tourney at
Chevy Chase.

Play for the cup presented to the
woman golfers of Washington by The

golfers of the city have been invited
to play, and large field is expected to

The cup is one of the most unique
of the many golf trophies played for

old Sheffield urn made in London in
1899 by famous English silversmith,
Samuel Norton, and is beautifully
chased. The Evening Star trophy is to
be played for annually by the woman
golfers of the city, and will become
the property Of the player winning it

short time ago extended to May %.
Players must have handed in three at
tested scores made on their home
course, in order that the handicaps may
be made equitable, the limit of allow
ance being 80, based on the woman's
par of the home course of the contest
ant.
Play starts promptly tomorrow at 10

PRESENT WAR INFLUENCED
BY ALL WARS OF HISTORY
DR.. Charles Z. Mills Discusses
Psychology of Great World
Conflict.

NEW YORK, May ARCHAEOLOGICAL
influence of the great wars of history
on the thought and progress of the
world was largely responsible for the
present world conflict, in the opinion of
DR.. Charles K. Mills of Philadelphia,
who spoke at the annual convention Of
the Medico genealogical Association
which has opened here.
The recent Russian revolution and
the military caste of Germany. Dr. Mills
said, can be traced directly back to the
Napoleonic era. The Russian revolution
probably will achieve it's aims the
speaker declared. and in doing SO will
exert strong psychological effect on
Germany, which he described as 1.-THE
victim of war-created psychology and
self-fdolatry."
England's psychology. he said, de-
veloped a self-compiacency and snob-
bishness which left her at the mercy
Of more self-centered and aggressive
power.
"As for America DIR. Mills added,
literature. art and science have large
ly been side -tracked in the quest of the
almighty dollar. High thinking has
taken back seat and has been SUD-
planted by high finance and corrupt
politics.
From the time of the Franco-Prus-
sian war down to the beginning of the
present colossal conflict the German
mind has ingested and absorbed a men
tai pabulum which could not have any
otHeI outcome IMAM the development OF
self-confldence approaching idolatry,"
DR.. Mills said in discussing Germany.
80 1t happened that when Germany de-
clared war on Russia and France and
her legions swarmed through Belgium
they marched exuHant in what to them
was the sure hope of speedy victory,
Throughout the first half OF the war
down to the present time this spirit has
known no tanning.
AS the flood tide of German success
begins to ebb we see a new psycholoei-
cal spirft-a new mental attitude. One
Of its significant evidences is the, re-
cent announcement of Macmillan Har-
after all, the enemies of Germany are
| unconquered and probably unconuuer-
| able. The contagion of the Russian
revolution also soon may play it's high
ly important psychological role"

ing Martin J. Mcnamara, president, and
John G. Mcmahon, secretary, also were
constituted a committee to urge mem
bers to assist at the Arthur and Gales
schools. where registration will take

whatever they can to help make the
day success. The association decided
not to hold any parade in connection
