There is not the slightest question about the merit of
the plan of Capt A L. WILLARD of.the Navy Yard who
recommends that great athletic and recreation field for
the public be established the reclaimed land across the
river from the Navy Yard
1t is plan for the of the PUBLICS own grounds
by the PUBLIC in the finest possible way Under this plan
!a OF east Washington would have the benefit of play
ground fine Potomac Park and there would be the
added advantage of greater accessibility than any portion
of Potomac Park until the municipal ferry in operation
Captain Willard proposes that the existing social and
athletic organizations the Navy Yard be allowed the use
of the land the river from the gushop for field
houses boat houses and similar buildings In recommend
ing this he is doing something for ALL of East Washing
ton this would stimulate the interest of other assoc
liar requests Carried out to the ultimate development the
reclaimed land would then be doing something big and
fine and useful for all the forty thousands and more resi-
dents of that section of the city and would be the finest
recreation ground in this section Of the country
Fortunately there is most liberal spirit among the
officers In charge of public lands The ancient order Of

Problems
Especially for Washington Women

Every few days I get letters
from young girls and men saying
they are strangers in the city and
asking how they can become ac-
uuainted with creditable young
people.
They are of the class to whom
''picked-up" acquaintance are abb
solutely taboo, and yet they are
young enough and human enough
TO want some social life with young
people of their own age and sta
ton. To such / have repeated my
rather limited formula for making
safe and sane acquaintance
over and over again.
| have mentioned the Park View
Community Center, where all sorts
of agreeable social life is con-
stantly in progress, and where
there is always a secretary on
hand to give courteous informa-
ton. ] have mentioned the Ingram
Memorial Church, where young
folks interested in a variety of
things NAV foregather and spend
a pleasant evening.
And there is All Souls Church,
where during the winter months
supper was served at 6 o'clock
every Sunday evening TO war
workers and soldiers. DR.. Pierce
makes everyone feel as if he or
she were back home" and the
same spirit of good fellowship
seems 70 pe-gade the congregation.
And there are also the Sunday
hikes into adjacent MARYLAND and
Virginia given under the auspices
Of various church organizations.
Doubtless some of my readers
know Of other safe and agreeable
channels where young people can
meet and spend pleasant evenings
under proper social direction. And
I am asking If they will not be
rood enough TO write to this
column and tell me about them.
Now please do not write-if you
happen to be a Young man-that
YOU would like to meet the girls
whose letter | am about to publish.
Because for the hundredUh time,
please let me say that absolutely
no letters are forwarded through
this department, nor any introduc-
tiOns given.

We have noticed quite a little IN
your articles recently about girls

friends TO men without being sweet

are We going to meet the men?
As you know, there are two sepa-

those who are homesick and lone
some, and those whose society
would be most undesirable. If W.
pick up friends in the parks. how
are We going to know which kind
they are? The chances are that

on that subject and several others
for a while.

doubtedly think, because they have
a face only mother could love"
that they are ctcrnaliy damned, but
that Is not so. However, I will
confess the gOOd-IDOking girl has
better chance in the beginning. but
there are more kinds OF beauty
than the beautiful face.

My father died when I was
three years old; he was a ply

life has been ruined by her hus-

All Girls Not Dancing Mad.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
have just read an article appear
ing in your column about an Eng
lishman's point OF view, and I want
to say that not all girls are dancing
mad.
There are a few of the old-fash-
iOned kind. like our grandmothers,
who think of things more serious
than "tinsel and gold paint" and
who try to spend their lives other
wise than dancing. am one. and
