BROKEN MIRROR
BAD LUCK OMEN
FOR D. c. SURVIVOR

whether Private Bernard Philip
Raksin, a Washington boy on board
the IIl-fated Tuscania. was right or
wrong il to be decided. But few
days before sailing he had a Fremont
tfon that all would not go we'll on the
overseas voyage. A few days before
sailing he broke a mirror, and few
minutes later he broke his glasses.
81 am not superstitious, and / don't
believe In that seven years stuff, but
! do believe am in for a run Of bad
lucli.'
This was what Raksin in a letter
from New York wrote to friend, DR..
{. P. RaNon, of 929 G street north
west just before sailing. Word was
received today that Raksin is among
the survivors from the Tuscania.
Raksin is described by friends to be
"a ripping good fellow" and full Of
pep" He sings and plays the violin.

TURN RACE HORSES
.|NTOSOAP AND FATS
SAYS BILLY SUNDAY

Everybody went to the tabernacle
last night. There were more than
1900 persons present: and 500 were
turned away because the building
could not accommodate so many. q,
Last night witnessed the biggest
crowd that has edged its way into the
tabernacle here. Men and women
stood Ave deep In the corridors; they
banked the aisles, and a big delega-
ton sat in the sRw-dust near the
platform.
At each Of the meetings pleas for
larger collections were made, II. b.
+. Macfarland, former District Com
missioner; John Poole, head OF the
Federal National Bank, and others
made talks
,CharIes Henry Butler dropped a
pfomise for $500. DR.. Wood pledged
$500 more, and woman In inc
audience said she would bring SiOO
for the tin pans next Sunday. Colin
Livingstone promised a large amount.
Then the pans were passed ana the
collection that came in broke all
records
DenOunces Racing.
Billy was bitter in his denunciation
OF dance halls and horse racing.
Billy declared It Is time to dispense
with the race horses He referred TO
them as "four-legged" gambling ma
chimes. and stated that q 'tin lizzie II
worth four horses"
NIt's time TO quit dispensing oats to
these gambling machines when the
children of this country and the chill
dren of Belgium are starving" he de-
cIared. Folks are shivering because
they can't get coal enough to heat
their homes. The railroads are suffer
ing, yet the Pullman company must
use coal carting these horses from one
place to another.
"TuFn EN- Into Fat"
Get rid of these horses. Turn
them into soap and fat and shoes for
the boys of our country, or for Uncle
Sam at work in the munition fac
tories turning out shot and she'll to
pour into that horde Of Huns on the
other side"
Tho claim OF the horse race pro
moter that he Is turning most OF his
earnings TO the Government is mostly
camouhage, according to Billy.
Most of this money" said Nhe
evangelist, ais money handed the
race track promoter from gamblers
who stole II from their employers.
On the "girl" subject, Billy said:
Listen to me, you frizzle-headed
sissies, the world wants girls with
high ideals OF womanhood, the kind
that will heed the advice Of good
moth1rs. 1t wants those who have
decency enough to love the cradle
more than the cards; who can wash
dishes more than they can play the
piano: who can cut a dress as well
as cut figures on the dance floor, who
can distinguish a gentleman from
scoundrel, and who isn't ashamed to
marry a working man with a pair
of Accent working overalls and horny
hands in place OF some good-for-
nothing cigarette smoking libertine.'
"Gum-chewing, fudge-esting James
OF this age have no standing with
the average man." Billy declared.
W. H. Lee, the Atlanta boy, who
buckled in with Bueterbaugh. the pro-
German who attacked Billy with his
fists at the tabernacle in the Georgia
city. was present last night. He still
bore marks OF the assault.

81 know many OF these men now,
and 1t was nice to watch them smile
as they passed because they were pleas
ed to have Us with them for dinner.
They had decorated the mess hall, and
It looked like ChristmaA. But Christ,
mas Eve really was the best, because
we had our tree for the little French
children OF three villages and for the
soldiers.
I'm the morning we decorated the
hut. The day before we went up on
the hill and got Christmas greens to
decorate with-hemlock, pine, and
box and several big punches OF mis-
tletoe. What a good time We had
tTamping through the snow! We be-
haved like children out of school
The boys said II was the best time
they had since they left home.
"Ali along the rafters we hung
lenterns and strings OF flags OF the
allies and paper decorations. Mean
while Miss made q Santa Claus

afternoon the place was full Of little
