BARBER FOR So YEARS
At IS, He Says He'll Keep on Shaw
ina Rest Of Life.

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 1s.-Far past
is the time when BARRIERS were MEM
bers OF kingly courts, but it is still
a profession which can be followed
honorabIy for many years-witness
Charles Gramlich, a barer sixty-three
years, and now eighty-three years old.
He was born in Baden. Germany.
and came to America in 1s49, getting
a Job at the age of fourteen and the
salary" of rs cents a week.
Gramlich has shaved and haircut
as many as the entire male population
Of Philadelphia, but he still found
time from his work to learn to paint.
and says he's painted more than 1000
pictures and sold them. Now his
eyes are failing a little. and he has
given up that for penuchle, but he
doesn't think he'll give up barbering,
for he wouldn't feel right IL day
passed without the click OF the scis-
sors in> his hand.
And when some day the old razor
veteran dies. he will know that the
family trade is carried on, for be
took care to train two OF hs three sons

ASSERTS MUSIC IS
IMPORTANT STUDY
Dr.. CogSWeII Asks for More
Recognition in School
CurriCuIumS.

Music is ranked third in import
ance among subjects taught children
in the schools, according to Dr. Ham
lin Cogswell. director of music in the
District public schools, who spoke to
the District of Columbia Federation
of Women's Club at the New Ebbitt
today.
DIR. Cogswell said that the average
child begins to take an interest in
music from natural impulses during
the second year in school.
The reason why more boys and
girIs do not learn music in school is
because their parents permit them to
become too easily discouraged, said
DIR. CogsweIi. If every child could be
given twenty minutes of music in the
schools every day the results would
be most surprising, he declared.
After the talk, members of the
federation discussed advantages the
District offers to school children for
music study.
DIR. Mitchell Carroll, secretary OF
the Archaeological Institute, spoke at
the afternoon session of the fedora
tion on art, the Story Teller Of the
Ages" Mrs. MabelIe Z. Stearns gave
a talk on Music with Children"

EUROPE MAY GO BAREFOOT
Shortage of Leather Sending Prices
Of Shoes skyHlsh.

ROME, Feb. ia barefooted Eu-
rope is Dot improbable IL this war
continues" said John +. Stucke, vice
president of the American Chamber
of Commerce in Italy and general
manager of an American shoe ma
chinery. company, in an interview
concerning supply and business con-
ditions met by Americans abroad.
AT the present time pair of heavy
mountain shoes lasts a soldier but six
weeks" he said. These shoes have
their heels and soles studded with
nails at that. The shoes are largely
made in Italy, but with American
machinery and American leather, and
the quality of the materials is the
best we can furnish, but that quality
is Of course inferior to that sold be-
fore the war.
"when manufactured by the hun
dred thousand these shoes cost the
government about 81 each. But the
supply is always behind the demand,
since materials arrive very slowly
from America. On one ship, the Pal
nero, which was torpedoed in the
Mediterranean, of the coast of Spain,
in early December, the material for
nearly half a million pairs Of shoes
was lost.
+. "The retail store trade in Italy is
now obliged to pay nearly 81 whole
sale for shoes that before the war
cost $3.50, and IT Is probable that
American shoes will be selling in
Italy soon for SO and $12 the pair"

CHEATS GIBBET TEN TIMES
Life Sentence Imposed Upon Much
Resplted Negro.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Feb. 19.-Elston
Scott, of Murphysboro, who escaped
the gallows nine different occasions
on respites given by former Gov. Ed
ward F. Dunno, will go to the Ches-
ter penitentiary for life.
Acting upon recommendation OF the
State board OF pardons, Governor
Lowden has commuted the sentence
of the negro slayer to life imprison-
ment.
Scott was convicted at Murphys-
boro in 1915 for the murder OF Clara
Dalton, a relative, and sentenced to
hang. When former Gov. Edward F..
Dunno was informed that a large
number of persons were to be al
lowed to witness the execution a
respite was granted. Eight addi-
tioaai stays were granted By Dunno
Scott was sentenced to die Feb
ruary 16, and a petition for commuta-
tion of sentence was filed. Governor
Lowden granted the Communication
upon recommendation of the pardon
board, the trial judge, and the attor-
ney who prosecuted the case.

2 CALL DEAD MAN HUSBAND
Second widow" Appears at Muir
rays FuneraI-PoIice Called In.

HARRISON. n. j.. Feb. 19.-Police
were called in during the funeral here
of William Murray, when 1t was
learned that a woman had appeared
at his home. saying she had married
him twenty-eight years ago. before he
wed the Mrs. Murray known here.
When the Rev. William J. Tilley. of
Harrison. had finished the funeral
service, the woman walked up to the
coffin, and. pointing to the corpse,
said to the friends assembled:
Ladies and gentlemen. this is the
body of my lawful husband, and there
is his son." She pointed to a young
man about twenty-six years old who
had come to the house with her.
Two policemen stepped to her side
and led her to a seat, and she left the
house soon afterward. She said she
had been married to Murray in 1883,
and that they had separated in 1892.
Murray was married in 1897 to the
woman now his widow here. She has
been seriously i'll since his death.

PIE PRICES SOAR
AS MOANS ASCEND
Lunchroom "Snacks" Lose
Class When Tale of Increased
Cost Is Told.
Pie has gone up.

Pie has gone up.
The death of the first robin in
spires poems which bring tears 10
the eyes of a vivisectionist. The
little dog, deserted by his drunken
causes children to wall and weep,
and the demise OF the faithful old
horse, whose passing away leaves his
poor but kind master without sup,
port. inspires speeches which draw
enough money from emotional hear
ers to buy the carter a new horse.
And yet, was anything ever sadder
than the rise in price OF pie?
Who hasn't stopped in at a res
taurant at o'clock a. m. and, with
a dime in his pocket, confidently
ordered ''pieceapieandagla glassofmilk? -
What school boy hasn't bought the
luscious pie from the rear of the
well-known pie wagon? Who hasn't
shared his dime lunch by splitting a
pie with his best friend.
But these are things OF the past.
Pie Is going up.
The rise in the price of shoes made
people buy cheaper shoes. When
cigarettes went up, men began roll
ing their own. When collars Joined
the skoot skyward in price, males
took to celluloid ones or else wore
one collar two days.
But pie! Who can buy cheaper pie
than heretofore? And again, who
can do without pie-
The three principal ingredients of
pie are flour, sugar, ana shortening.
The prices of these products, it Is
said, have advanced 100 per cent re-
Gently. No one doubts that they
have. Everything has gone up, ex-
ceptinR talks on peace.
Consequently, pies in Washington
advanced in price today. Those
which sold at IL and 20 cents now
retail at 10 and IS cents. The scent
pies are going to sell for cents
still-but they won't be the same.
They will be much lighter and less
satisfying.
Saddest of all. the advance in price
Is only an indication Of what may
happen later.
Step up. Mr.. Poet. and write good,
sobby obituary on pie.
