On With The Dance

Students of Columbia University are being taught
dancing this by artists from Abyssinia Aghans
tan and Baluchistan
MIR. Vahan q. Kalenderian, secretary Of the United
States Racial Advisory Group believes that in order to
understand and assmilate aliens must know their trad
tional past The best way of becoming familiar with their
ideals supestions and customs he says is to learn their
dances.
We exchange students and professors with foreign
universities
Science and and literature represented by dele
gates accredited and otherwise which the Old World sends
to Us and which send to the Old World
Consuls and ministers and ambassadors to represent US
abroad
Shall we some day exchange dancing experts in order
learn foreign ideals and to tell the story of America to
distant lands?
Religious and tribal customs may well be indicated in
folk Dances but it is doubtful whether serious advance can
be made in the comfy of nations through interchange of
dancing masters
It would be hard believe that the cause of Ireland
would be aided by the ability her representative to dance
an Irish jig.
The Spanish envoy with fandango or bolero would not
increase his prestige thereby.
When Hungary day sends an envoy to this coun
try he will not be rated his proficiency dancing the
csardas.
Our representatives abroad might gain grace of BODY
through acquisition of native steps, but Uncle Sam probably
would be highly oath to rest his reputation on the tickle
foot
Can you imagine these questions being asked of aspir
ants for jobs in the consular service

care you qualified to introduce American ideas through
artistic rendition of the Texas tango?
care you proficient in Virginia reel?

That Washington ParSOn With
Pep and a Punch
BY BILL PRICE.

Rev. e. W. Atkinson, of Grace Church, this city, reuc-
family refraned from punching the manager Of swell
restaurant here because he felt that would be ndecae
to muss up the establishment create excitement among
the patrons Had the manager been considerable enough to
step out on the sidewalk Mr. Atkinson would not have
hesitated.
Having served abroad with the soldiers Mr. Atkinson
humanity inclined to resent the fact that this cafeteria
had refused to luncheon to two badly wounded
soldiers because they in their shirt sleeves minus
bouses. The of had to be held out far that
he could hardly have worn blouse
The manager had orders not shrsleeve gentry
in the establishment but the proprietors could hardly have
meant that he should deny boys who faced shot and shell in
shirt sleeves and paid physical penalties therefor
The most critical woman patron mncng chicken salad and
ice cream, would not have raised objection under the
circumstances.
These boys may have hailed from rural districts where
the frequently sit down to meals in their shirt sleeves
and do not thereby the butter the who
present They just did think there horrible much
difference between fighting in their shirt sleeves and feed
ing'' in the attire
"Parson" Atkinson the of Judge G. W. Atkinson,
of the Court of Claims former governor and former Con
gresham from West Virginia became red all when
he learned that the boy with the shellmangled had
been wounded in heart and soul by the foolish action of
whose closest approach to smelling powder has been the
inhalation of the odor of onions calf liver and cabbage
along with hog greases costing 40 cents per pound
Evidently the religion of this fighting parson has human
elements that will strongly appeal to that thoughtess class
of who cannot be convinced that they anything less
than real merely because they enjoy beefseak

dress To know and follow the conventions sensiby is
grace possessed by all hungry young chaps just out Of

She Cares For Someone Else.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Having been a frequent reader
OF your column for sometime past,
appreciating the value OF your ad-
vice, ask that you answer the
following question. l am in love
with a girl whom l know cares
but little for me- We have been
going together for two years and
feel that there should be an under
standing OF some kind Her lack
OF affection in my behalf is proba-
bly, due TO the fact that / am bash
full and have made no advances OF
any kind Her mother and brother
are very fond OF me and am sure
they would like to have her marry
me. In view OF the fact that she
cares for someone else more than
she does for me, would it be advis-
able for me to try to gain her favor
or to leave her and try to forget.
A READER
You do not seem to have very
much TO go on in this affair Your
temperamental shyness seems to
have kept you from making any
great impression CT the girl In
addition to this. you say she cares
more for some one else than she
does for you, but on the other hand
her family would he glad to have
her marry you. II seems to me il
you had been genuinely in love
with her, that You would not have
let the situation drift like this for
the past two years. How deeply
are your affections involved? Do
you really care enough TO take an
eleventh hour chance and try End
sweep the girl off her feet by an
actual proposal? This would be
quite legitimate as none Of you are
engaged. The question in my
mind is, are you genuinely in love
with her.
How They Keep Help.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
You had an article a little while
ago about the servant problem
stating that many women intended
10 give up their homes because
they could not get the right sort
OF help. Ny mother has had the
same help for over twenty years.
her secret being treat them as hu-
man beings should be treated So
many women feel that a housemaid
IL a slave to do their bidding at all
hours OF the day or night The
odious name of servant" is one
drawback to securing good help.
nd when a maids work is done
why not let her enjoy every evening
at the movies or with friends? The
shop and factory appeal to girls
more than domestic service because
there Is a time to start work and
= day has an end. All work and
no play makes Jill q dnu girl When
The Washington times., 1919-07-09

In most kinds of business this would be looked upon
by competitors trading infrmity captaizing mis-
fortune taking undue advantage Not the newsboys
They kept away from this boys corner. They gave
him free swing for all the trade he could get and all the
profits he could make They said, BILLY is entitled to
shade in way cause we've got shade him
in many ways" And any boy had attempted to "cut in
customers he would have had plenty of defenders
The education of the street, which is all good many
neyboys get teachers them firmly than any other
school the value and applicability of the Golden Rule.
They believe in competition, but they insist upon
FAIR competition and the newsboy who undertook to
establish monopoly would encounter something much
stronger than the Sherman law, and more promptly and
efficiently enforced.
The business world at large could learn good deal
from the methods and spirit of the little merchants of the
news.

TODAY'S TOPIC
ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

evening comes she likes to drop
the role OF servant and be among
her equals Mother allows our
maid to have a girl friend whose
people are away to spend a week
or two with her now and then.
These friends help to do the work
about the house. Why cannot
homework be considered a profess
sion? 1 believe that home making
and home keeping should be really
an art. and the maid should receive
the same consideration and respect
as a professional woman. To keep
them apply the golden rule.
G. A N.
This correspondents idea would
be excellent if there were any ser
wants left to cherish either by the
golden or any other rule. At the
present cost of provisions few
families outside of the Rockefel-
lers could afford to allow their
maids to entertain a friend for a
week or two. The question seems
to have settled itself in several
northern cities. Work, actual work
is paid for at so much the hour.
This very seldom includes any
meals. 1t is merely an enlarge
ment of the window washing plan,
a professional person of either sex
comes in, does your homework
for given number of hours, re-
ceives his or her money and de-
parts. There is no longer any
question of servants being fed

and lodged beneath the roofs of
their employers.
They Had A Misunderstanding.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am q young war worker and q
constant reader of your cloumn. Not
long ago met a young man whom
! liked very much and I think he
liked me- promised to go out
with him, but was unable to keep
the appointment. A week later /
was out with some girls and saw
him. but he only speaks when we
meet face to face.
Several OF my friends tell me that
he is constantly talking about me.
And ! should like to know why he
acts so strangely when ! see him?
Do you think he should come to see
me first and unless he does. do you
think it would be right for me to
forget him? ESTELLE.
Since you broke the appointment
with the young man it would seem
to be your place to straighten out
the little misunderstanding that
seems to exist between you. Why
not write him a note and tell him
that you regretted being unable to
keep the engagement you broke
and tactfully intimating that you
are not in the least angry.
Not Treating A Soldier Well.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Some time before I Joined the
army, was engaged to a young
lady from my home town. During
The Washington times., 1919-07-09
By T. E. Powers

the first six months Of service her
letters. which l always awaited
eagerly, were many and very low
ing. But soon they became fewer
and a bit Indifferent until recently
/ have received none. To my knowl-
edge, l wrote the best letters of
which I was capable, always cheer
full and expressing a desire to be
with her again very soon. I am
sure she is well, as she would have
written II this were not the case.
Can you tell me il We are still en-
gagged, since she has declined to an
swer me.
A WALTER REED BOY.
From your own account, | think
this young lady has treated you
very badly and if you have written
several times and she has paid no
attention to your letters it would
seem that the engagement would
go by default. / hope you are not
allowing yourself to be too much
cut up over this young lady's treat
ment of you in declining to make
any reply to your letters. She has
proved herself unworthy of a SOL
dier's affection.
A Question of Education.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Have been following your young
peoples questions and answers for
some time. but have never seen a
case similar to mine in your column.
| have been in love with a girl for
the past three years, and we would
have been married had il not been
for her education. / do not mean
TO say she is ignorant and dumb,
but she has not had the advantages
OF a high school education. which
were denied her by her parents be-
cause we happened to be sweet
hearts at the same school. This
girl has more common sense and
good judgment than the average
girl OF today, who believes only in
good times. l have often offered to
send her to school. This she re-
fuses. saying her parents would not
own her should they find this out.
My pride has always been an edu-
cation, which I, myself. did not get
any too much Of. on account OF nv
parents financial condition. though
l hold q pretty good Government po-
sition here in the city. We are en-
gagged. but have no idea of marry
ing soon. WORRIED.
Nothing could be simpler than
the difficulty that appears so in
surmountable to you. You are both
young and Washington offers
every opportunity for both to be-
come educated to your hearts con-
tent. Why not have a talk with
this girls mother and father and
persuade them to let you attend
some evening classes together.
There could not be a more profit
able and delightful way for young
people to spend their evenings.

No Medals For Real Heroes.

SIDNEY C. FOGELGREN, SOC
Eighth street, S. W., comes mighty
near being right when he says that
the real heroes of the Wharf.-The
women who sent their sons and hus-
bands to the front and carried
heavy burdens while they were
away-are being overlooked in the
distribution of medals. "Why not
honor these women directly by CIV
ing them appropriate medals for the
sacrifices they made?" he asks.
W. F. ROBERTS, the New York
avenue business man whose estab-
lishment has been six times ralded
by burglars, is now writing me to
ask me to exert my personal in
f1uence with the burglars to divert
their attentions elsewhere. Thou
sands of people read this column
and it is possible the burglar gen.
tlemen may be among them. If so
| kindly request them to lay of my
friend ROBERTS for just a little

HEARD AND SEEN

Charlie Foster and District Prisons.
CHARLIE FOSTER, just about
the best prison and reformatory
superintendent the District ever
had, invited me down to the District
jail last night to a Jail dinner. As
the invitation was unaceompanied
by force accepted il.
Commissioner B r GOWN Low,
Judges MCMAHON and HARDI-
SON, of the police court, Auditor
.TWEEDALE, of the District, Major
PULLMAN and Inspector GRANT,
of the Police Department, ROLAND
S. ROBBINS, of Keith's, MORTON
MILFORD, of the Louisville
Courier-Journal, A. S. Mckee, Of
the New York Telegraph, Assistant
Superintendent KRAMER, of the
public schools, and others enjoyed
the hospitality and complimented
Mr.. Foster on the great improve
ments he has made at the Jail.
The two police judges were especi-
ally complimentary Of the changes
wrought in the institution.
FOSTER has opened a school in
the Jail for the most illiterate in
mates and Mr.. KRAMER furnished
most of the books. In a neatly
fitted-up school room one of the in
mates, a fne-looking boy, who is in
generated for forgery, teaches the
other prisoners. He is q college
graduate and a civil engineer. He
writes a beautiful hand.
FOSTER started the school idea
in prisons years ago when he was
jailer in the jefferson county, KY,
Jail, and the good he did among sup
poSedly bad men was marvellous.
AS one Of the visitors truly stated,
FOSTER is not sickly sentimental
ist or cheap theorist. Neither is he
. brute. Prisoners in the Jail at o.
coquan know that they are in prison
for something, but as far as he can
DO so and preserve discipline FOS-
TER teaches them that there are
better things ahead if they wish
these things.
The sunshine of his smile and the
touch Of his humanity lightens the
burdens of the hardest criminals. II
they do not respond to fair and
kindly treatment then FOSTER
knows how to use the iron hand.
When a college lives 81 years
without making a public appeal, re-
ceiying no financial assistance from
city or national governments, and
finally asks the public to help when
there is an insistent demand for a
larger plant, that institution is GER
tainly deserving Of every encourage
ment
That's the situation with st. John 5
College today and LEO KOLB, TOM
KEANE, LEO ROVER, D. EDWARDS
and their co-workers should have
their ambition of $4,000 in sub
scriptions realized by July -. II
