The Lonely Job

A man who has dealt much with boys and been
wonderfully successful in leading them into the right
kind of manhood says. the lonely job" Is one of his
best agencies He refers to the task in the field the
barn, the shop the engine room. where boy IS
sometimes alone for hours al time with opportun-
ity to think as he works
This man does not hold human fellowship light
ly for he knows we'll the value of friendly confer
and discussions and the power of teamwork;
but he also knows it is well for every person have
occasional hour two alone and that it is espe-
cially good for the normal growing boy.
1t is not accident that the great leaders OF
history have been men who were much alone in boy
hood. Read the life stories of Moses, of Abraham,
of Joseph, of David. The herdsmen and the shep-
herds Of old had lonely jobs; from among them
poets prophets and even statesmen. Our own
Washington and Lincoln laid foundations of their
greatness in lonely days and years spent in the wild
erness.
There are countless other examples in science
literature and craftsmanship.
The great things of history have been for the
part the result of the organized efforts of many
but the leaders got their training in hours of
solitude. 1t is nothing to marvel at that remote
farms have furnished many, perhaps most, of the
who have greatness in the city.
Do not despse the lonely job 1t is natural to
desire the society of our fellows but there better
things than being sociabe all the time.-Ex

PLAGUE PEDDLER
SCATTERS GERMS
IN Los ANGELES

LOS ANGELES, July 24.-Deadly
anthrax germs have been discovered
in a mass of court plaster sold in
Los Angeles last Wednesday by a
one-armed German peddler, who is
suspected Of having disposed Of the
plaster for the purpose of spreading
disease and death throughout the
city. This startling report was
made at the Pacific Wassermann
Laboratories following a prelimi-
nary examination Of plaster fur
nished by the head of an establish
ment where the peddler sold much Of
his stock.
Awaiting Result of Test.
DR.. Samuel Levin, director of the
laboratories. inoculated several ami
mails with germs taken from the plas-
ter. Several days must elapse before
he can determine the results.
Police and Federal agents, in
searching for the peddler. who Is sup
posed to have a large stock OF the
plaster hidden somewhere in Los An
geles, arrested several men eorre-
spending to his description. Reports
Of the sale OF the plaster have come
from cities near Los Angeles. and a
number OF arrests have been made
in those places, according to the chief

ALLIES W|LLFORCE
ARATES DOWN
BY SHIP CONTROL

Plans to put a speedy end to huge
war profits by shipowners in the al
lied and neutral countries have been
practically contaminated by the allied
governments
These plans provide for absolute
control by the allies OF all shipping.
Ocean freight rates are to be
brought down to a reasonable" level.
This will be accomplished, not by
regulation, but by control of ships.
Copies OF proposed agreement, to
which all OF the allies are ready to
subscribe, are now before the State
Department. The agreement pro-
vides the principles under which con-
troll Of shipping will be exercised. 1t
was drawn after long series OF con-
ferences between representatives OF
Great Britain and the United States,
and has been considered by the allied
war council
The United States Is without power
to fix transatlantic rates by regu-
lation. The shipping board has power
to fix coastwise rates and to stop
discrimination in trans-Atlantic trade,
but this IL as far as rate-making
powers, as such, go.
1t Is perfectly feasible, however, for
the Government and Great Britain to
control all shipping under war condi-

Work on Camp Meade may be de-

resentatives OF the Advisory Council

adjacent country Communicating lum-
Der. That shortage Is assuming Ssri-
Gus proportions.
For a few days carloads were
shunted on the sidings, but It was
soon converted into wooden canton
ments. Major Robert +. Proctor, in
charge Of constructing the camp,
urged upon army officials in Washing
ton the necessity Of immediate ship
ments of lumber II the camp is to be
finished by September I.
The matter was put up to the eoun-
ell. The blame Is placed on the
shortage of cars. A consultation with
Daniel willard, president OF the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad, II sehed-
uled.
Despite the temporary halt IN
operations, Secretary OF War Baker
announced his satisfaction with the
progress made.
That the men at Camp Meade will
get all coming to them was assured
when II was announced that Charles

REQUEST TO

Merchants want to know how
MANY and what KIND of citi-

Adjustments, business men have
the opportunity Of getting this
information SO important to them,
and we make this request:
Please instruct your employees
to ask customers WHAT NEWS
PAPER THEY READ9
We shall consider it q great
favor if you will ascertain par
tieularly how m-ay and what
kind of customers read THE
WASHINGTON TIMEs.
We think that we know. We
want BUSINESS MEN to know.
We believe you will find that
THE WASHINGTON TIMES is
read by all classes Of citizens, but
for the moment PARTICULAR
LY BY THE YOUNG MEN AND
THE YOUNG WOMEN.
Older people are slower to
change a habit. THE TIMES is
read already by practically ALL
THE YOUNG MEN AND
WOMEN OF WASHINGTON,
and it will be read regularly very
soon by practically sll Of the
others.
Meanwhile, it Is worth remem-
bering that the young men and
the young women are THE BUY
ELS.
We shall be grateful to any
merchant who will request his
employees to get answers to this
question:
What newspaper do you read7
Do you read THE WASHING
TON TIMES? What do you like
about it7"
There is no information quite
as good as YOUR OWN intorma-
ton. And we are anxious that
merchants should have THEIR
OWN information about this

Der and quality.
