excellent work and earning their
Drince!y salaries.
But they cant manage the series
OF visits which have usually occupied
their summers, and of course such a
trip as they took last summer out to
q Wyoming ranch Is qsite out of the
question. They are not, however,
separated from their families, for It
is not the Burleson family habit to
go away in the summer as a family.
They keep the house open and come
and go as opportunity offers and the
spirit moves.
But little Jane Gregory-she's a
tiny little person, you KNOWS al
most alone here, and her job with
the Food Administration doesn't even
Involve a uniform by way of consola-
ton. I saw her the other day at the
Committee on Public Information
she's with the publicity bureau of the
Food Administration-tryin to get the
pictures she needed for some thrilling
food story.
AS she stood there in a wide brimmed
hat. with yellow silk sweater over
her white frock, and her childish face
and slim little figure, one almost felt
that here was a case for the child
labor people to get busy on. She looked
bit tired, too, though she smiled
when some one asked her If the work
was not too much for her, and insisted
that the work was all right, but the
heat was trifle eXhausting.
Belgian Orphans Her Excuse.
As far as salary goes she has the
Burleson girls left at the post. She
began at $50 month. and for all /
know she may have had raise since
then. But then those Belgian orphans
of hers undoubtedly need all she can
earn, and they are her excuse for
sticking at 1t through the heat of the
summer when her mother and the
others. except her father, are away
and the family home Is closed.
She has been staying with the Nor
gan Beaches, out Rockville way, the
girls being chums of hers, and her
father the Attorney-General, is max
ing his headquarters at the Chevy
Chase Club. And now Miss Kitty
Beach has deserted or rather she

in town and the other Is running the
farm and running 1t very well, at
Blossburg Pa, where the family comes
from. and where they always spend
their summers.
OF course 1t is not only the girls
who are working. There is Mrs. Bor-
den Hartman. for instance. One
meets her at every turn. full Of bust
ness during business hours and full
OF social interests when she has put
business behind her for the day. One
sees her out in Potomac Park on
horseback perhaps late in the after
noon when the aeros are going up, or
out in the motor parade in the
Speedway in the early evening or AZ
one or another of the country clubs
as hostess or guest at one or another
of the innumerable dinners.
In the same class Is Mrs. John Allen
Dougherty, widow of Capt. Dougherty,
at one time Naval Attache at Pekin.
She has been the backbone. and the
nerve and sinew. of half of the big war
benefits and drives and things this sea-
son. And now she has gone in deeper
than ever as national chairman OF the
lately organized national salvage CON-
mittee of the American Civic Associa-
ton, which is working under the Save
junk and win the war" slogan.
Began War Work Abroad.
Mrs. Dougherty was in Pekin when
the war broke, having stayed on there
after the death of her husband. She
went over TO Britain and offered her
services for war work there, and later
Joined the American group at the
American hospital at Neuily. So she
has had all sorts Of experience in how
the others are doing it to apply TO the

As for staying in town all summer
that is a mere bagatelle. She'd prob

she thought that by so doing she would

Of the war.
Mrs Herbert Wadsworth Is another
whom war work has kept in town Ions
after her usual time. She has rarely
in past seasons been here after thu

I know the place where she is most
likely to turn up lately has been the
old Cabin John Bridge Inn, where the
Club de Ningt foregathers. 1t is the

Dinner mt an Inn.
The old inn remains open to the
public, Of course, but its being adopted
by the Club de Ningt has given it n
fresh start, even though there are GER
tain special rooms and wide shady
piazzas reserved exclusively for club
members. 1t is drawing the younger
set away from the Chevy Chase Club
in rather an alarming fashion. and is
likely quite to outshine the local coun-

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC

The Grand Army of the Republic
has been meeting in annual enCamp
ment at Portland, Ore. during the
present week 1t is the first time
that the annual gathering OF the civil
war veterans has been held in the
Pacific Northwest. approximately
IS 600 men who answered President
Lincoms call to arms have been in
attendance, coming from every sec
ton of the country.
The attendance at these annual en-
campments never has been below So
GOO in the past. but the rapidly OWN
ding membership roll each year
accounts for the reduction in the num-
Der attending, Aside from this, many
old soldiers probably found 1t impos-
sible to attempt the long transconti-
mental trip from the Atlantic sea
board At one time these annual en-
campments were attended by approx
mately IA quarter of million of the
veteran fighters.
The Grand Army of the Republic
was organized at Decatur, ILL.,, in
1866. Its membership numbered 500

A BIT OF HISTORY

The credit of the United
States was so high and unques-
tionable that in 1900, two years
after the Spanish War, 2 per
cent bonds were offered at par
and oversubscribed. This a fl
naneial performance no other
nation has ever equaled.
United States 4 per cent
bonds in 1888 sold as high as
$50 and in 1901 brought 1879
on the stork market.
The United States has never
defaulted on any of its bonds.
Not one of its bondholders has
ever lost a cent of principal or
interest except those who vol
UNFAIRLY have taken losses by
selling their bonds IN a period
of temporary price depression.
One hundred cents on the dol
lar, principal and interest has
the United States always paid.

PLANT IRISH POTATOSE

The United States and her
Allieswill media larger amount
OF potatoes this year than ever
before and Arkansas can help
in the production of this extra
amount of potatoes if every
farmer will plant from one half
to one acre of potatoes this
year. Are you planning to
plant that half acre or acre of
potatoes this spring? 1t re-
qulres about 10 to II bushels
OF potatoes to plant an acre:
so if you have not already done
so, arrange to get the seed.
The early maturing varieties
are considered best for the
South, because they mature be-
fore the excessive heat of sum-
mer, and are likely to keep
better than the other varieties
which mature later. The Red
Bliss and the Bliss Triumph are
the very best varities for us to
grow. The Early Ohio and
the Irish Cobbler are also good
varities.
