his knowledge Of French. Williams has
had an unusual opportunity to acquire
splendid experience, most Of which can
not be detailed. Of course. However. 1t
is permitted to say that the champion
looks fine" He recently was present
ed to Gen. Petain. commander Of the
French armies.
Williams tells OF being under fire as
follows: THE Germans located me when
I was peacefully walking across a field,
but I heard them coming Che had been
speaking of shells, and find that, con-
trary to all the tennis critics. it is not
at all necessary to be quick on your
feet: just lie right down and glue your
self to the ground. At any rate. have
been under fire. and it is not half so
bad as some people make out"
Maj. Prentice gives some details Of
the death Of Tony" Wilding, one OF the
worlds most famous players. killed
early in the war. told him recently by
Canadian, who witnessed Wilding.s
death. "Wilding was riding along a
shell-racked road when a big fellow
landed right in front of him." Prentice
writes. AN officer ran out of an abris
him to take refuge with them. He was
bearing dispatches and hesitated, but
finally decided to do so. A few seconds
afterward a shell landed on top of the
abris, direct hit. killing all inside in
.stantly. Probably If he had done as he
wanted to-ride on-he would be alive
today. 'Cest la guerre.'

skip-Stop Suggestions.
o the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
While it is no doubt the opinion Of
every one that the "skip-stop" system
is one of the best plans ever adopted
for facilitating the congested traffic OF
the day in all large cities. yet. from
careful observation and experience, one
is at once thoroughly convinced that
the recently installed system is far
from reaching and overcoming the Sc
rious difficulties which confront the
complacent general public.
The idea Of all cars stopping at GER
tain designated places and none at all
stopping at numerous convenient
places does not of itself appeal to the
public, for it most assuredly requires
more than one-half OF the travelling pat
ronage to travel all kinds OF dis
agreeable weather a greater distance
were made at every corner, as Of yore.
Why could not a plan be adopted
whereby every other car would stop at
every other corner. arranging the stops
would thus be saved. as cars would
take on their passengers much more
speedily. since the crowds at each cor
ner would not be augmented as they
are by the present plan.
On a morning trip recently it was OBJ
served that within mile or SO from
Decatur street station the cars would
be gradually crowding upon each other
until. when reaching U street. there
would be from six to eight cars banked
one continuous creeping pace, not much
faster than the persons who were
walking. On this morning 1t was OBJ
served that at the southeast corner of
18th and U streets there were about $50
people congregated and only one car
in sight to relieve the situation. Upon
turning Thomas Circle there were seven
or eight cars between that point and K
street. and when 14th street was turned
there were six cars between that street
and the 18th street transfer point. On
turning into 18th street there were seven
cars banked between New York avenue
and Pennsylvania avenue. II this con-
dition still exists. 1t is not apparent
brought about, for in the crowded con-
d1tions Of the cars slowly creeping
along there is no time saved, to say
nothing OF the. discomfort experienced.
1t Is most certain that IL change is
gested there would be great joy in
Washington and the public will loudly
acclaim the benefits.
Another matter which causes consid-
cradle delay on the 18th street line IS
the ParH road car which terribly con-
gests traffic on both tracks when it
changes tracks at Kenyon street from
the east to the west tracks. Crowded
and packed cars are held for several
minutes, and many of those nearing
their destination get off several squares
away rather than sLSef The incar-
venfences. It is surPrising that the
company's officials have not recognized
this Inconvenience and applied the rem
edy by placing switch 80 that the
northbound Park road car could be run
right onto the other tracks
Another cause. of great congestion is
the use OF streets as terminals There
seems to be no excuse for this unnec-
essary congestion. 1t could easily be
