You see Acid-Stomach victims ev-

they say is, Il don't feel well''-I'm

The police are expecting that WASH

effect yesterday.

Of the improved rules for crossing at
street intersections for the past week,
with the sanction of the police de-

come accustomed to the changes.
The commissioners have announced
that the revised code will be enforced
rigidly by the police, and orders have
been issued to arrest every offender.
The new regulations were designed to
meet the requirements of the motor

and leave no room for excuses with
respect to violations, no matter how

Personal NelDs Notes

Donald Dixon, Bradley Dixon. jr.. and
II. @. Watts. At the close Of the
entertainment the visitors were served
Everyone in the party
had a jolly time and expressed the
hope that similar affairs would be
arranged.
The woman's Home and Foreign
Missionary Society Of the Garden
Memorial Church was entertained at
its last meeting by Mrs. Mills. at the
Ontario Apartment. This organiza-
ton has an active program for the
spring and summer months. Reports
indicate also that It has done much
during the year.
Finishing touches are being put on
the new optical shop at the local
Navy Yard. and within the next few
weeks It is expected the building will
be occupied permanently. When the
complete organization Is perfected in
this shop, the Navy Department will
be able to secure glasses Of all kinds
which 1t may need for ships and men.
Owing to the special class OF work
required, skilled workmen from Ro-
chester. N. Y. will be brought to the
yard.
An effort will be made by the civic
bodies Of the Southeast to have the
commissioners again include in their
estimates to Congress an item for
the Improvement of Minnesota avenue
from Good Hope road to Pennsylvania
avenue southeast. An amount OF $6.-
600 was included in the last estimates.
but It was stricken out in conference.
1t Is claimed this improvement is
greatly needed by the residents OF
that community. and would be the
means of attracting others TO that
section. This avenue Is one Of the
widest In the District and there Is
sufficient ground on either side of It
to permit of much Improvement.
Tent No. I, knights Of the Macca-
bees, met last night In their rooms in
Good Hope road southeast. with de-
gree work as the principal business.
A program for the future was out
lined. and following the business a
social time was enjoyed.
Citizens OF the Southeast are anxious
that some decision be reached. as to
the future use of the reclaimed area
OF the Anacostia fats. The Engineer
Once in charge of this ground has
been flooded with requests for use OF
this land. but has been unable to
answer them owing to the fact that
definite decision has not been reached.
1t was the original plan TO develop
the ground as a public park on the
same lines as Potomac Park. Since
then several schemes have been sug-
gested. the latest being by the Navy
Yard Recreation League that II be
given the use of a part of the area
opposite the navy yard for an athletic
field. The citizens are hopeful that
some plan will soon be adopted.
