CHARITY WORKERS AGREE
TO KEEP NAMES SECRET
Identity of Families Receiving Aid
Not to Be Disclosed Even
at Conferences.

-aat the names of families receiving
assistance from workers for the Asso-
ciated Charities should not be made
known. even among the workers them
selves at conferences. was the sense of
opinion voiced at meeting of volun-
teers of the charities body yesterday
afternoon Mn the rooms of the Wash
ington Chamber of Commerce. The
meeting was in the nature of "a round
table" conference. at which the work.
ers could thresh out their problems
1t was conceded that some descriptive
method should be used in discussions
whereby workers would be enabled to
remember the various cases discussed
from time to time. This might be done,
it was pointed out. through references
or 1.-The deserted wife with two chill
dren." Many of those present declared
that nothing definite enough to disclose
the identity of family should be given
and that everything possible should be
done to preserve the Self-respect of
families being helped by the Associated
Charities.
length of time to which conferences
should be limited. 1t was pointed out
that the plan of limiting discussion to

and bad points, and that each might
prove most effective under different
circumstances.

cussion were Wallace Streeter, Louis

The Spring Pest

If l could WELD the pen Of
Pope, or talk like forty Bryans,
Id hand out much impassioned
dope concerning dandelions. Man
strives and strives to have a lawn
the town will be applauding; at
twilight hour, at noon, at dawn,
you see him sowing, sodding. He
sows about ton of seed of blue
grass and white clover, and then
that dandelion weed just spreads
itself all over. And all those
weeds his soul defect; he tries to
kill and burn them, and then in
many dialect he learns to blank
and dern them. He hires about a
thousand boys to slay them where
they're blowing; for every one a
youth destroys, ten million will
be growing. And so for years he
struggles on. still hoping, still
pursuing, still dreaming OF a
handsome lawn, then sees there's
nothing doing. And then at last
he falls from grace, he ceases all
his trying; the dandelions take
the place, the grass is brown and
dying. And people, as they jour
ney by, observe, and mutter
glumly: That shiftless fellow
doesn't try to make his place look
comely!" WALT MASON.

WOULD FORCE OLD MAIDS
AND BACHELORS TO WE'D
Increased Birth Rate Urged as
Necessary Phase Of National
Preparedness.

To the Editor of The Star:
In line with the movement to in
crease the food supply something
should be done to increase the birth
rate in America. This is as necessary
and should receive as much attention
and encouragement as the Red Cross
work. for the objects of both are
closely affiliated. The high living cost
greatly lessons the number Of births.
People must provide. themselves pri-
marily with food, clothing and other
necessities. and to augment the family
and thus add to the expenses of main
tanning the household is not the
style" nowadays. A short while ago
the passage of the immigration bill,
involving the literacy test, forecasted'
the hitherto resultant increase in popu-
lation. The war. too. will take it's toll
of human lives. which 1t will require
years to replenish.
1t is. therefore, just as much an Of
Tense to remain an old bachelor in
these times as it is to be classed as a
Stacker. The government (and private
ment those who are married. and thus
induce bachelors to join the ranks of
the benedicts. Young men of military
age, however, can best serve their
country now by joining the army or
the navy Campaigns should be inau-
gurated to enlist all old bachelors and
all old maids (men and women past
twenty-five years of age) in the serv-
ice of their country by urging them to
enter the married state. Nor should
the poorer classes be depended upon, as
they have In the past, to increase the
birth rate. The poorer classes will be
the ones who will have to do the fight
ing. Rich, pleasure-loving Americans
have a patriotic duty to perform in this
respect, and they should respond.
This is one other phase Of prepared
ness. J. A. McOSKER.
