look for continued supply throughout

LOOK Tor continued supply throughout
the winter.
The present is typical Washington
winter, with mild December and early
January, little snow and fair aver
age temperature. Ordinarily the really
bad weather occurs here during the
last sir weeks os the season, from
about the Goth Of January to the 4th
Of March. Most of the very bad storms
suffered in the past here have occurred
during that period.
To those who were in Washington
for the first time year ago the eli
mate seemed most disagreeable, with
bitter temperature and much snow.
ice and intervening slush. The street
railway service was necessarily at its
worst, being seriously congested at
best. The lack of coal caused the I'M
derhcating of buildings, public and
private. There was no comfort any
where. Undoubtedly the capital gained
much disrepute during that unhappy
time to which it was not justly en-
titled. Now with a typical Washing
ton season in progress those who are
spending their first January in the
city can appreciate what was meant by
the old-time assertion that the capital
is in truth one of the most delightful
winter resorts in America.

The Fifteen-Foot Rule.

Police orders have been issued to
enforce strictly the rule requiring au-
tompbiies to be halted fifteen feet be-
hind street cars stopping to take on
and let of passengers. This rule has
been recently violated repeatedly and
no dependence could be placed in it by
users of the cars. It is one Of the
most necessary regulations now in
force, as it safeguards those who must
Of necessity 60 into the street to or
from the cars. Many aceidea Is have
occurred in the past for the lack of
this rule before it was adopted and
through violation Of it since, and it is
to be hoped that the police will vigi-
iantiy apply it and cause the arrest of
all persons who disregard it. Motor
lists who find it an Inconvenience to
bring their cars to q halt in obedience
to the rule should use other streets
than those occupied by car tracks
whenever possible. This can be done
without material addition to the motor
mileage.

The President and the Weather

The President is not superstitious.
lie has no fear Of the number i3. lie
defes Friday. 1t is said of him that
he goes his way without thought Of
chance or of luck
This is not the rule in politics. The
average politician has sporting blood
in his veins. He cpnsults chance. He
believes in luck. He would withdraw
from a race rather than start it ON q
Friday, or on the 18th day of a month.
This freedom from superstition must
be of service to the President just
now. Otherwise, he would be depress-
ed. He would feel that Fortune was
throwing cold water on his mission.
The weather has been against him
wherever he has gone. Rain met him
in France At Brest and in Paris there
was an annoying drip.
Little probably was expected OF Eng
land; and England did not disappoint.
The London skies wept. At Carlisle,
where the Presidents mother when a
child had lived, a downpour spoiled the
reception outdoors. At Manchester the
weather was muggy.
He left England under cloud, SO
to say, and had rough trip across the
channel. He found the French weather
still inhespitablc.
Italy-sunny Italy-did not live up
to her name or reputation. The skies
in Rome were overcast. Mt Genoa,
there was almost cioudburst; and the
President was drenehed while doing
honor to the memory Of Columbus. At
neither Milan nor Turin was his short
stay cheered By sunshine.
Back in Paris now. and buckling TO
business, he has cherries outlook.
Rain is still falling. The Seine is in
food, and threatening the town. The
hotel where the Americans are quar-
tered may be put out Of business by
the rising waters.
Now all this would drive supersti-
tious man frantic. He would search
for the hoodoo, and strive to exercise
it. He would inquire Of fate what he
had done.
But the President, although poll
tician and very successful one, is not
superstitious, and is probably unaf
feeted By this experience. He will not
read it as having q bearing ON a
league Of nations, or even On the free
dom Of the seas, but accept it as
all in the days wash, and go right
along With his conferences.

A Hohenzollern Goes to Work.

! That hope of monarchical restoration
does not persist throughout the entire
/ llohenzoliern family is evidenced by
| The fact that August Wilhelm, fourth
son of the former kaiser, has gone into
trade" accepting position with q
leading German automobile firm. This
departure may, however, denote that
the former prince of Prussia has no
faith in any restoration reaching far
enough down the line ever to reach
him. There are ahead of him in line
of succession not only three brothers,
but four sons of his eldest brother,
the former crown prince. Thus Au-
gust Wilhelm's chances OF designation
rs head of revived German monarchy
may be rated as rather slender.
Participation in trade is not new in
the Hohenzollern family. The head
of the house was not averse to invest
ing in "industrials." He had stock in
many concerns, notably in the steam
ship lines, and was reported to have
been silent partner" of the Krupps
And he was not merely q drawer of
dividends, but interested himself in the
details of management. 1t has been
said that promoters of large enter
prises in Germany were not altogether
pleased when the kaiser sought stock,
for he had a way Of insisting upon the
adoption of his fertile ideas, which
sometimes eonfiicted seriously with the
more bus;nesslike methods OF his prae-
teal associates.
August Wilhelm as an 'honest work
in gman" will possibly be envicd by his
eldest brother, who has expressed o
wish to return to Germany and engage
in toll. At present, however, he will
not have an opportunity to accept even
brilliant openings from tradesmen
seeking ornamental advertisement for
their wares.
