Inns in the chain will be scattered
all over the city. One Of them, it is
announced; will be located in the

Uncle Sam has faith in his blind
soldiers and sailors. He knows that
the grit that carried them 'over the
top will not forsake them in the
slower but no less heroic struggle to
overcome the handicap of sightless-
ness, and Is willing to back them with
his money and an opportunity to do SO.

WOMAN WILL FARM
NEAR WALTER REED
Cooperative Basis Will Bring
Gain and Training
for Recruits.
NOT LABOR COMPETITORS

Assurances are practically given by
the Woman's Land Army of America
that farmerettes will work a large
tract of land on a cooperative basis
this coming summer. In addition to
providing material gain to the woman
working the land, the tract will be
base for the training of inexperi-
enced recruits.
Definite plans had been made by
which the division would take over
for planting purposes about twenty five
acres of land near Walter Reed Hospital,
but these were held in abeyance
pending the uncertainty of assistance
IN recruiting from the uni.ed States
employment service. Failure of Con-
EresS IN 1ne session just closed 10
provide appropriations to the employ
ment service interfered with the
plans.
The District division of the land
army, however, has determined to
carry on and finance the work of re-
cruitlng in addition to operating the
proposed commercial garden tract.
The divisions treasury has a suffi-
c1ent amount to meet the salary of
a paid worker until the produce from
the gardens begins to make returns.
Mrs. Bertha Taylor Voorhorst will
have charge of recruiting and the de-
velopment of the garden and train
ing school. Miss Edith Diehl, ma
tional director of training for the
land army. assisted in the prepara-
tion of the course.
Encourage "Back-to-Land" Move.
The District division wishes to inn
press upon the public the fact that it
IS entering the work of farming with
view to developing trained workers
tor seasonal duties and to encourage
women to take up gardening and
farming, and not to compete with
men in farm labor. Its chief aim
also is to stimulate a back to the
land movement" which will lead to
well equipped country homes and a
broader community spirit in rural dis
tricts. @
New officers Of the local branch Of
the land army have been chosen by
the executive committee as follows:
Chairman, Mrs. Voorhorst; secretary.
Miss v. B. Smith, treasurer, Miss
Edna ]. Sheehy; directors for two
years, Mrs. w. c. Heron and Mrs.
J. D. Miley; directors for one year,
Mrs Grace Porter Hopkins, Mrs.
Charlotte Eldredge and Miss Ellen P.
Rugg.
In recognition of her loyal service,
Mrs. F. J.. Ransome, who has been
chairman since the inception of the
movement in Washington and declined
reelection, was made honorary chair
man.

Species Not Common in o. S.

Sumatran elephants are not very COM
mon in this country. They represent
subspecies, nearly akin to the Indian
elephant. the kind with the curved back.
high and intelligent forehead and rather
smull ears Among the principal points
of difference are a fold in the ear and
the fact that the island elephants are
heavier. The Sumatrans have certain
points of resemblance to the African
elephant, which, however, is so different
from the Indian as to be a different
genus, with large tapping ears. tusks
curving we'll outward and a quite differ
ent tooth structure. Sumatran elephants
grow to a large size, it is stated, there
being on record several OF ten feet'
which is very large for an elephant.
The famous Jumbo was an African
elephant, fine animal, whose species
is not nearly SO well known in this
country as is the Indian genus. He
stood an even eleven feet at the
shoulder and there are recorded from
the Sudan one or two of the same
kind measuring twelve feet Mr..
Lewis, who had charge of Dunk dur
ing his lifetime. and who will care for
Kechil and Hitam, was with Jumbo
when he was accidentally killed while
with Barnum &, Bailey's circus years
ago. He is most enthusiastic over the
little ones that have come here
Friday afternoon every man and
woman who had subscribed to the
fund raised by Mrs. Walcott,- to whom
SO much credit is due both for the
idea of bringing the babies here and
the hard work necessary before this
could be accomplished, was invited
out to the Zoo for private view" of
the newcomers. If the smiles on their
faces and the things they were saying
as they came away are any indica-
tion, no one, resident or visitor, will
regret the trip out there to get ac-
quainted with the little animals be-
longing ito the children"

To Draw on War Fund.

Gov. Rceckman Of Rhode Island has
authorized the federal director of TN"
service for that state to draw upon
his war fund for any amount needed
to maintain an efficient service in that
state. In New York the voluntary
response of individuals and organiza
tions has been such that the service
will be able to continue in New Gorh
city and through the state without
serious curtailment.
The central zone office of the profes-
sional section in Chicago has been
taken over by the military camps
training association for the service
This Office is placing engineers anu
highly trained men in the Army and
Navy and is receiving several hundred
applications weekly from officers aud
men.
The general situation all over the
country appears to justify predictions
made in The Star yesterday by officisi>
of the service that at least half Of ,iic
service offices will be kept open Dur
ing the period that the service is with
out federal help.
Remarkable Manifestation.
Director General Densmore charac-
terized the situation yesterday as -'th.'
most remarkable manifestation of
popular interest in a government
agency We have ever known
1T is also a striking demonstration
of the general realization of the neces-
sity for an organization TO bring the
returning soldiers and war workers
and jobs together. The service Is nov
in a position, with the assistance Of
cooperating welfare and other or
ganizations. to continue TO direct the
national program of assisting soldiers
and war workers to employment aud
to provide the machinery for co-ordi-
mating and controlling voluntary ef-
forts"
