Cash in on Washington's Growth!
Here Are Reasons to Prove ValueN

No investment is as secure and as certain
to yield return as the owning of land in
growing community.
No city is as certain in it's growth as the
Nations Capital.
Real estate cannot be jugged like stocks and
bonds. 1t cannot be embezzed, it cannot be de-
stroyed 1t is, indeed, "rea' estate-a tangible bit
of Mother Earth that will last until the crack O.
doom.
Real estate in a growing community is as certain
to increase in value as it is certain that two plus two
equal four.
The Washington herald., 1918-07-13

1t is equally certain that no city has so assured
Washington. The need for more room is imperati
increasing every day, and the demand will constar
increase.
COLMAR MANOR affords you the opportunity
in location that assures increased value in locate
is high, dry and healthy, in location where you can
at once and start to really live, away from the noise
and confusion of the city. 1t
is an opportunity unprece- :.
dented-one that may never x@&>

not another such location in the @RkAZA

scaffold site where Queen Anne Boleyn
Queen Katherine Howard and Lady

ATLANTA STIRRED
BY REVELATIONS OF
CITY SCHOOL MA'AM

ATLANTA, Ga, June 25.-Quite a
sensation has been caused in Atlanta
by the disclosures of Miss Laura
Smith, primary supervisor of the city
schools, recently acting superintendent
of schools, while the superintendent
and his assistant were under investi-
cation, and supposed to be supporter
of Major R. J. Quinn, which brough
on the storm of public protest.
But, instead of endorsing Major
Quinn in public statement, dealing
with the school system, she declares
that many of the revolutionary
projects accomplished by him under
the color of progressiveness are a
total failure, and further declares that
they were put into operation without
consulting the teaching force.
Miss Smith has resigned her posi-
tion in the city schools, where she has
been tremendously popular, both with
the teachers, the children and the
parents, and accepted very import
ant position with the Red Cross for
rehabilitation work in France
When william NJ. Slaton, who was
superintendent of schools at the time
Major Quinn came on the board Of edu-
cation, opposed the revolutionary pro
jects now condemned by Miss Laura
Smith, he was removed from the posi-
ton of superintendent A petition
was signed by 1000 citizens request
ing the board to retain William M.
Slaton, but the board removed him
Now the progressive" policies and
projects of Major Quinn have caused
such storm of public indignation that
he resigned from the board before the
councilmanic investigation was we'll
underway.

.RINTELEN AWAITING
FOURTH TRIAL in NY.

NEW YORK, June 25.-Franz Won
Rintelen, who is an intimate friend ol
he Kaiser and somewhat resembles

trial in the federal courts, charged
with conspiracy to sink neutral YES
sells leaving this port.
Won Rintelen occupies cell on the
first tier of the Tombs in the section
set aside for federal prisoners. He has
been regarded as a docile prisoner,
His treatment has been the same as is
accorded all the other prisoners, ex-
cept that his abundant funds have en-
abled him to have all his meals served
from the prison restaurant, smoke
good cigars and provide himself with
books and papers. He has not been
allowed, however, to provide his cell
with furniture different from that pro-
yided the general run of prisoners.
Coming to this country in 1914
shortly after the outbreak of the Eu>
ropean war, Won Rintelen became one
OF the heads and paymaster in Ger
man spy activities here He was sup
piled with unlimited sums of money
by the Deutsche Bank of Berlin, OF
which he is an official, and it has been
reported he gave orders to former
German Ambassador Won Bernstorff.
Failing in an effort to stop the ship
ments of ammunition and arms to our
allies, he managed to have bombs
placed on piers and steamships, which
did considerable damage. This was

SMALLPOX IN GRlsWoLD
 AND IN VOLUNToWN.
Six Gases Have DeveIoped-Two Are
 Serious, the Others Slight.

Six cases of smallpox, two of them serious ones, but the others slight ones. have appeared in the towns of Griswold and Voluntown in the past three weeks, and neither the local medical authorities of the two towns nor the state authorities have been able to trace the source of the original infection.
 The first case developed in the town of Griswold, near the Voluntown line, and this was followed by the others, which probably have all resulted from this case, it is stated. All those who have been taken sick have been kept under quarantine in their own homes under the direction of Dr. J. H. Hoover, health officer for Voluntown, and Dr. G. H. Jennings. health oliver for Griswoid, while the state authori- ties have been consulted as to the pre- cautions to be taken against any fur ther spread of the disease.
 Three of the Griswold cases are in houses about 200 yards apart, one of the Voluntown cases is the son of the storekeeper and the other is about a mile outside of the village.

ANSWERS WAR TIME
 QUESTION IN SERMON
Can a Follower of Christ Kill Men?
 Was Rev. .Purkiss' Topic.

Gan a follower of Christ, shoot men was the subject for Rev. A, F. Purkiss at the Central Baptist church on Sunday evening in another one of series of sermons on topics suggested by tell war.
 He answered the question when he concluded his sermon in the following words: What is the Christian attitude towards Germany? Ravisher of wo- men, murderer of old people and chil- dren, bomber of hospitals and sinlxer of Red Cross ships--and hoastfully proud of it all. This is Germany What can we do with this nation.
 The judgment has gone forth. They that take the sword shaH perish by the sword Can Christian shoot men? Yes, if these men are wild with fury and ambition, and it is a cho'ce be- tween their death and the death of others. see a lunatic with foaning.' frothing mouth, with revolver in zach hand, going down Broadway. fir ing right and left at every one in sight. Which is Christian? Ito let | him continue in his nlaniacal fury. kill 1 ing left and right. or to end the whole slaughter by putting bullet through his brain? In such case as that, deeply as I would regret the necessi-  1 toward and cur to neglect my duty. md the part of Christian /; kilt him.

 The aged senator Cato. speaking in the Roman senate. concluded every
 speech with these words: ..carthace delenda. est" Carthage must be de- ttroyed. My friends, Germany must l be destroyed.
 In the course of his sermon Rev. Mr'
 Purkiss said that there were two sides to the teachings of Christ. Jesus is 2
 nacifist with regard to himself. Hi
 followers are to live unde" the law O
 love. One must exhaust every othe1 way before he uses force to accomplish
 anything. But there is the other side , Jesus Christ was fikhter. He at
 lacked a efgious monopoly. He at
 lacked the double standard of purity i Jesus is a revolutionist He upse ! churches and thrones and domini2n
