FARMERS HELP.

Last year quite few farmers took

boys served them we'll and | received
back boys rebuilt and full of good,
clean thoughts and habits and ready
for school. In my experience as Juve-
nile Commissioner, have found that
removing boy or girl from improper
environment is the first aid to his or
her encouragement. None of-us are
beyond the influence Of our environ
ment. No matter how firm of pur-
pose, strong willed and determined we
may be, we are constantly modified
by our surroundings. Take the best
born child, with the greatest inherited
advantages, and let it be reared in VIC
ious atmosphere and it will, Of course,
become brutal.

much to determine the future current

the nonprofessionaI women OF the
United States for Red Cross work.
The enlistment for war relief work
Of women in small towns and country
districts where the Red Cross chap
ters do not now exist, will be under
taken by this new bureau, as well as
to devise new ways Of women's serv-
ice.
Miss Marshall. director OF the new
bureau. was for years connected with
an International knowledge Of tech
nical and trade conditions having
travelled extensively abroad. The ad-
visory committee which will work

nent in Red Cross work in New York
City, has been made chairman Of the

Want POPULAR Vote
FOR CHOOSING BOARD
Committee on Schools to Launch
Movement for Ballot.

The choice OF members OF the
Board of Education by popular vote
rather than by appointment is a plan
recently voiced by many Washington
citizens. Chairman OF the committee
on schools OF the Washington Cham
ber OF Commerce. P. T. Moran, will
take the matter up Immediately with
his committee.
This move starts what will probably
be a general campaign, although much
progress will doubtless not be made
before the resumption of activities of
Washington civic and commercial or
ganizations in the fall.
Members OF the Board of Education
are now appointed by the District Su-
preme Court. Various plans have
been discussed for changing the man.
ner of their choice, one of which urged
the transfer of the appointing power
to the District Commissioners.
The campaign for the election OF
members to the board is In accord
with a greater campaign for general
suffrage. which the Chamber of Com
merce, the Washington Board of
Trade and other kindred organizations
contemplate launching in the fall
These two movements will doubtless
be started simultaneously. Those in
terested in the plan to elect members
of the Board of Education hope for
the passage OF legislation in time to
permit OF an election to I'LL vacancies
which will exist June 80. 1918. when

Big WIRELESS COIL
SENT To MARYLAND
Navy Officials Believe Germans
Have Station There.

United States Navy Department Of
ficials are conducting in Maryland a
rigid investigation of wireless stations
in this State, which, despite the or
ders of the Navy Department at the
outbreak Of the war, are still opera
ting.
The department knows that at least
sixty stations are Illegally operating
in this State. Whether this fact is
responsible for the success of the
German spy system, which resulted
in giving the enemy information rel
ative to the route and destination
Of the transports carrying American
troops to France. is a problem which
the navy officials want to solve.
About two weeks ago, there was
shipped into this State a powerful
wireless coil. capable of emitting
twelve-inch sparks. Such sparks can
be transmitted with ease across the
Atlantic and beyond. even to Berlin.
Whether such a coil is being used for
such sinister purposes is not known
by the Navy Department. but the
State of Maryland is being combed
so that all doubts will be settled.
In the first place, the navy wireless
officials know that only one form of
the wireless has been perfected in this
country.
This is what Is known as the wave
spark" There is another form, which.
it is believed, the Germans may have
perfected, and which is known as the
ARC spark"
II the Germans have perfected such
a spark. the wave spark" stations
of the United States navy at Fort
Myer and other places could not pick
up the 'arc spark" messages, as they
travel in a different way.

POLICEMAN'S Home
VISITED BY BURGLAR
Screams of Daughter Scare Of
Burglar.

Another policeman's home has been
robbed.
A few nights ago Mary Costello, the
daughter of Policeman John c.
Costello, of 216 street northeast, was
awakened by a noise in her room and
in the darkness she distinguished a
man wearing a derby hat moving
about. She knew that it was not her
father or brothers and she screamed
at the top of her voice.
"Rob5er. robber." she screamed.
The man had left all the doors open,
so his exit could be made speedily,
and had tilted chairs in the doorways
to hinder pursuit, and when she
screamed he made a hurried dash out
of the house and down S street.
Her father. who has a day beal
near the District Building. was
awakened by the screams and hurried
to his daughters room but by that
time the burglar was out of sight.
Policeman Costello made a search
along street. and through the
neighborhood. but could not find any
trace of the man.
The burglar took some OF the family
silverware from the diningroom, but
nothing else was missing

TERMINAL STRIKERS
RECEIVE BACK PAY
POSTPONE Meeting Until Today to
Get Money.

The 800 striking employees of the car
and electrical departments OF the
Washington Terminal Company drew
their back pay yesterday. and much
important discussion relative to the
strike which was called July 8 was
postponed for a meeting to be held
in the Northeast Masonic Temple this
morning at 10 o'clock
J. F. McCreery, general vice presi-
dent Of the Brotherhood of Railway
Carmen. maintained last night that
the force Of car and electrical men is
still greatly crippled.
"Ofcials at the WASHINGTON Ter
minal Company aver they have taken
on the reserve forces of the Baltimore
and Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad
men, but there is little evidence of
them at the station, trains leaving,
we have good reason to believe, in an
improper condition"
]. F. Wilson. superintendent at the
Terminal, refuses to consider the sit
uation seriously. appearing apparent
ly Hnperturbed by the leaving of the
corps OF yard workers.
There Is no strike on, as far as we
are concerned" he said yesterday.
These men quit work. and we simply
brought in others to take their places"
