MANY ENLISTMENTS
EXPECTED BY navy
Prepares for Rush to Colors When
Lists Are Opened.

In keeping with its spirit of
progress, the Navy Department is
preparing for an onslaught of re-
cruits when the naval appropriation
bill goes into effect. thereby in
creasing the personnel of this
branch of the fighting force to a
tremendous extent.
One of the first steps taken in
this connection was adopted yester-
day by the main recruiting station
of the navy in the Central Building,
sos Ninth street northwest, corner
of Pennsylvania avenue, when
another large room was taken over
medical examiner.
Ensign ]. Frew Hall, the officer
in charge OF the main recruiting
station there, will move his head
quarters into the room made vacant
by the medical examiner, while the
outer office will be conducted as a
place of reception for the crowds
of new applicants expected in a
short time.
The U. s. Marine Corps recruiting
station at 4Q7 Star Building, has
been getting ready for increased
business for some time, and has not
only been adding to its office force
very materially. but has enlarged
its quarters to corresponding de-
gree.
Under the circumstances incident
to the popularity of these two
branches of the governments mill
tary and naval service. it Is more
than likely that the District quota
will be filled in short order when
it has been determined Just how
many men are required.
In all probability the main re-
cruiting station OF the army will be
transferred back to the tent in the
square at Pennsylvania avenue and
Eighth street northwest. 1t is
thought these quarters will he in
adequate to receive the new enlist
ments. This change will probably
be made May 1.

Mother as a Press Agent
By DOROTHY DIX,
THE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER.

Is no more like his mothers por-
have any dealings with such a par
agon. and especially with a para
gon that on close inspection seems
to have none of the ear marks of
a world beater, but is Just a plain,
ordinary, every day young man. who
trait of him than a soubrette's
hunks of glass are like the first
water diamonds that she advertises
she has lost.
The reason that many a man has
to leave his own home town to get
a start in his career is because he
has to get away from his mothers
press agentry and go to live among
people who will take him for what
be what rs mother said he was.
OF cou Sc there Is something very
tender and beautiful in this mother
alteration that causes a woman to be-
hold her children always surrounded
by a radiant halo, and that makes her
want to force the world to see them
through the same golden mist. For
woman's children represent to her
not only her own flesh and blood.
They are her incarnate dreams and
ambitions. All that she has hoped
for and wished for in life she expects
to see fulfilled in them, and it is God S
mercy to her that her eyes are so
blinded that she generally never sees
the truth, but dies in the firm belief
that her prayers have all been an
swered. and that her children wers
all th0t she wanted them to be.
But on the whole. 1t cannot be said
that mother is very successful as a
press agent. As a general thing she
does more harm than good by rais-
ing false expectations concerning the
appearances and ability of her chill
dren. Also she unconsciously engen-
ders a dislike OF the youngsters by
boring people with an account Of their
exploits, in which no one but she
has the faintest interest. These are
facts that might well be borne in
mind by the woman whose one topic
of conversation is my Mamie and my
Johnnie.
For you see We all want a chance
to talk about our own children. We
all belong to the Amalgamated Moth
ers' Press Agent Society.

NINE. GUIBERT GIVES
ARTISTIC CONCERT
French Diseuse Brings Belasco Au-
dience to Medieval France.

To Madame Guilbert go the hon
ors for the most artistic concert, Of
the season. This great French
diseuse revives more vividly than
any other artist the atmosphere OF
France Of the sixteenth, seven
teenth and eighteenth centuries.
With excelling vitality displayed in
her character impersonations. she
cast her spell of medieval charm
upon her audience at the Belasco
Theater yesterday afternoon. Not
the least attraction of Nine. Gull
bert's concerts are the marvellous
costumes. of such a design that they
do not restrict her impersonations
to a single character, but rather
tend to stimulate the Imagination
to a realization Of the atmosphere
of the time she would conjure up.
/ The most interesting interpreta-
tions of Madame Guilbert centered
around the 'Pierrots Of Life" in
which she gives fragments from
The SoliIoquies of the Poor" by
Jehan Rictus. In the Three Days
Of the Virgin Mary" a golden legend
of the fifteenth century, Nine. Gull
bert gave a picturesque impression
of the last three days preceding the
birth of the Christ child The last
group OF pieces, however. proved to
be the most entertaining to the au-
dience and more like the .Yvette
Guilbert that Washington knew be-
fore the war. These were songs OF
the sixteenth. seventeenth and eigh-
teenth centuries, and were most
amusing.
With Nine. Guilbert was Miss
Emily Gresser. a young and very
promising violinist She played
very effectively Rymski-Korssa-
kofrs "Chanson Hindoue" and Sine
gaglia's "Bagatelle."

welfare of the community and the
nation than do the teachers IN the

depends, In no small measure. the eff
ficiency OF the growing generation" :"

tions from Mrs. Raymond Robbins,
