900 NONRESIDENT Members Likely

Since the organization of the club
officials have been centering all OF
their attention on the buildingup of
the active membership of 1900 and
have made no effort at all to get non
resident members. but despite this
fact applications for nonresident
membership have been filed by per-
sons coming from various sections OF
the country. and indications are that
the club will have no trouble in reach
ing it's 1000 limit on nonresident
memberships when il turns its atten-
ton in earnest to that matter.
While nonresident members are
particularly interested in the 100-odd
guest rooms. the dining accommoda-
tions and the magnificent parlors and
conference rooms that the clubhouse
will offer. they are also looking for
ward with pleasure to the modern
athletic features. such as a gymna
SUM and a swimming pool. These
athletic and recreational facilities
especially appeal to the active resi-
dent members. who will be enabled to
get regular daily physical exercise
without losing practically any time
from their places of business and
without causing themselves any in
convenience. as the clubhouse will be
located in the heart of the business
section. within two blocks of 18th and
q streets northwest.

Sunday Ice Deliveries.

To the Editor of The Star:
Referring to several articles in The
Star in regard to the delivery of ice
on Sundays. / for one shall regret to
have these Sunday deliveries resumed
for the reason that it is essential for
the men and horses, who have to do
this arduous labor, to have at least
one day in the week for rest. They
are flesh, blood and nerves, with
hearts. minds and souls (this includes
horses like unto US. not machines of
iron and stone; consequently they. as
well as we. are entitled to the one day
out of seven which the Creator in His
great wisdom commanded we should
have for rest from material strivings.
If Sunday were made day of fast
ing. instead of feasting; day of
spirituality. rather than of materiali-
ty; used for loftier purposes than eat
ing. sleeping and going to movies,
then the present arrangement would
be found adequate. Some will say,
let the ice companies have an extra
shift if it is too hard on men and
horses to deliver every day in the
week. Who will pay for the extra
shift? Are we not now complaining
of the small pieces of ice for the
large" money charged? Let US make
SATURDAY our 1edSt Gay ana SUNDAY
remnant day, and pack our ice chests
to the limit on Saturday. then there
will be no spoilage. Furthermore. in
helping other men. and their noble.
faithful horses, who are hauling.
tugging, lifting, doing the hardest
kind of work in all sorts of weather.
from Cthink of the slaveryD and
in the morning until and o'clock at
night. to procure one day of rest out
of seven, we will be much happier, be-
cause we are unselfish. considerate,
and practicing the golden rule of do
ing unto others as we would be
done by.
This article will seem prudsh to
many, but If the justice and truth it
holds will help US to become mindful
of the men and horses for whom it
pleads it will have served it's pur-
pose. c. c. SCHIEBER.

Influenza Sure to Recur;
Former Victims Immune
Warning to Officials to Prepare for Fight
Against Another Pandemic Sounded by
Surgeon General Blue.

reported last week in Washington
and New York.
All city and State officials are
urged to cooperate in planning to
battle against a return of a nation
wide epidemic along lines suggest
ed by the service.
'Soiled hands. common drinking
cups, improperly cleaned eating ana
drinking utensils in restaurants and
soda fountains are a few of the COM
mon vehicles of transmission of the
influenza germ" says Gen. Blues
warning
Judging from experience with other
diseases it is probable that the germ.
whatever its nature. is carried about
not only by those who are i'll with in
fuenza. but by persons entirely well.
Everything which increases persona
contact, therefore. should be regarded
as a factor in spreading influenza"
Blue denies that any cure-all or
specific that is entirely reliable has
been found to kin the germ or treat
the disease.
Gen. Blue cites health reports OF
several cities to show that influenza,
believed to have originated last win
ter. really got its start as early as
1915 and was in the epidemic stage in
several Eastern cities in the spring
OF 1918.
