SOMEBODY ALWAYS
TAKES THE J. OIL.

Col. Charles w. whitley didn't
tell the Germans to go to hell.
The challenge which the colonel is
said to have flung at the German
commander who demanded the sur
render Of the lost battalion in the
Argonne forest, and which has since
become famous, is a myth
So said Lieut. Arthur F. McKeogh,
one of the men who fought side by
side with the heroes of the Argonne
forest, in the course of an address
at the United Service Club last night.
Made No Reply.
According to Lieutenant McKeogh,
Colonel Whittlesy'S famous "Go to
hell" not only was not uttered, but
it was never even implied by any
other words. Said the lieutenant:
when the message was brought
to Colonel Whittlesy by one of his
own men who had been captured by
the Germans, his answer was to take
down the white panel used for sig
mailing our airplanes, for fear the
enemy might think it was a white
flag.
mo reply was actually made by
COlOHCl y" "hilIicSy, puI his action un =
mistakably told the Germans that we
had not come 5000 miles to surrender.
To have sent back the alleged answer
would have indicated desperation on
our part"
The German officer in command of
the force which was pressing Colonel
Whittlesy's men so hard paid a trib-
ute to the valor of our men in a let
ter he sent the American commander,
which McKeogh read. 1t is as fol-
lows:
The bearer OF this present has
been taken prisoner by us. He re-
fused to give the German intelligence
officer any answer to questions. and
is quite an honorable fellow, doing
honor to his fatherIand in the strict
est sense OF the word.
He has been charged against his
will, believing he is doing wrong to
his country. to. carry forward this
present letter to the officer in charge
OF the First battalion of the Seventy
seventh division with the purpose to
recommend this commander to sur
quite useless to resist any more, in
view of the present situation.
THE suffering of your wounded
men can be heard in the German lines,
and we are appealing to your human
sentiments. A white flag shown by
any one OF your men will tell US
that you agree with these conditions.
Please treat the bearer as an honor
able man. He Is quite a soldier. We
envy YOU"

MAPES TO HEAD
D. c. COMMITTEE

The new chairman Of the House
District Committee, as predicted in
The Times on the day after election
last November, will be Congressman
Carl e. Mapes of Michigan.
Mr.. Mapes is a leading Republican
member OF the District Committee and
is entitled. on the score OF seniority,
to BE- chairman when the Repub-
licans control the House.
Mr.. Mapes informed friends at the
House Republican conference last
night that he would relinquish claim
to lesser committees in order to become
chairman of the District Committe.
The indications are he will be accord
ed the place without controversy.

S3,A-DAY PAY BILL
HEARING TUESDAY

Government employees will be out
in force nsxt Tuesday when the SUD
committee Of the Senate COMMITTEES
On Education and Labor, tneludiaS
Senators Hollis, Jones OF New Mexico
and Johnson Of California, resuhes
hearings on the Nolan SS-minimIm-
vags-bill for Government employees.
While there 10 some opposition 10
the measure, its advocates point CUT
there Il a strong argument for IL IN
that IL Is obviously in the interest OF
low paid employees. Few In Consless
dispute that the low paid employees
deserve higher compensation
Moreover, the increase in pay oy
the Nolan measure would affect FED
eral employees not alone in the District
but In every State Among the poorest
paid employees OF the Government are
the employees in the different Fed
eraI buildings throughout the coun
try, and these would be benefited.

THEY'RE either blond or brunette-The
newest Kewpies that have artistically
arranged French coiffures of real hair,
held neatly IN place by net. They stand
firmly on small pedestals, which means
that grown folks will like them as we'll
as little girls, and nobody can keep a
crouch very long with one of these
frivolous little ladies peeping coquettishly
from the corner of her eye. Try standing

chairs that your own Mother would like

her sewing, or book, and broad arm rest
on the right. Wings protect from drafts,
and cushions upholstered in soft-toned
tapestries assure the utmost comfort

roomy space for hangers. And they are

THERE is an air Of elegance. about mole

THERE is an air Of elegance. about mole
skin that clings to even the smallest
piece. Perhaps that is why one of those
close-ftting neck scarfs, that modish wo-
men are wearing so much, is so particu-
farly lovely in moleskin. 1t has a novel
tab hanging at one side, which holds the
big gray pearl button that holds il snugly
about the throat. STATS is on the price
tag. But if you prefer something more
elaborate there is lovely long stole of
moleskin that is confined to the waist,
in coatee effect, by a girdle of silk cords
fastening under a big buckle. and there
is also a little cape Of shirred taupe
Georgette banded with moleskin. A mole
skin muf will match either of these neck
pieces, and it viii be a lucky woman who
gets either of them, as the prices have
been so materially reduced. See them On
Third floor, center.
1T is the greatest waste Of ice to open
the Refrigeration door every time you
want a drink of water. That is why the
new Top Ieer Refrigerator is such a good
style. The idea is entirely new. for you
pour water into small tank through an
opening on top the refrigerator, without
even disturbing the inside. The water is
chilled, and is carried through rustless
pipes to the front, where a niekel-plated
faucet draws it with absolutely no waste
of ice, and incidentally without the nuis-
ance of reflling the water bottle that You
generally keep in the old-fashioned re-
frigerator. You will be interested in this
new model, which is shown on the Fifth
floor, Tenth street.
You'll be ready for breakfast in a
minute-And you will look tidy. too.
if you slip on a becoming breakfast Jacket
Of pink or blue crepe that is, cut on pretty
lines and belted with a broad belt. Some
very attractive ones are priced at $3.50
and the prettiest boudoir caps to match
them are marked as low as si.O0. Thtv
are frilly affairs Of lace and ribbon, made
IN such great variety Of styles that find
ing becoming one will be no trouble. no
matter whether YOU want one made like
tght-ftting cap and boasting two lace
frlls held by narrow moire ribbons, or
one cut along the lines of the cap of a
French peasant, with a long tab Of lace
and ribbon dangling from the back. Every
imaginable style jacket and cap is shown
on the Third floor, F street.
V0U could hardly sew buttons closer to.
gether than they are on a jaunty little
frock Of bright navv blue crepe de chine.
for It has no trimming other than rows OF
small blue buttons. They outline the
panel that hangs in front and then winds
about the waist, to end in long sash in
the back. And about two dozen of them
are used on each sleeve. II is Just such
a frock as any girl would like TO have TO
wear right now under her heavy coat, for
it will be ready TO wear without a coat
on the first sunny, warm day. And as il
is made of splendid quality material it
viii make ans ideal utility frock. The
pleated skirt falls over a tivht-ftting
netticoat. and the price is s42eo. in the
