District Bill in the Senate.

In Its report OF 1ne DlSlrlcC OIL 'he
Senate appropriations committee full
fills the expectations of the capital
community by restoring the half-and-
half principle and materially increas-
ing the total allowance of money for
municipal maintenance. 1t is especial
ly gratifying to find the Senate com
mittee standing stanehly by the organic
act against efforts to effect it's repeal
or modification by indireetion through
a rider on an appropriation bill. And
the District looks confidently to the
Senate itself to sustain the committee
in this respect and to hold firmly to its
conviction, so often expressed in the
past, that the half and half system is
the equitable method of capital main
tenance.
While the additions to the House
allotments of funds are not as large
as the needs require they are sufficient
ly liberal to indicate that in framing
the budget for the fiscal year to come
consideration will be given to the
change from war to peace time condi-
tions.
One of the most gratifying items in
the bill is that which establishes the
basic pay of public school teachers
at $1,000. This insures fair pay
scale for the public schools, which
has been sought for long time and
in the absence of which the schools
have been seriously handicapped dur
ing the war period of high prices and
general dislocation. With the basic
pay at $1,000 it will be possible to
maintain the schools on fair sched-
ule of compensation. This item should
surely be retained in the bill.
OF special importance is the amend
ment authorizing the Secretary of War
to name a commission of five engi-
neers to report at the earliest possi-
BILE date on a plan to increase the
water supply. This, as The Star has
hitherto stated, is of the most urgent
necessity. 1t is to be regretted that
o further commission is necessary. The
whole matter has been sufficiently ex-
amined in the past to permit very
early report, which should be in hand
for action at the present session of
Congress.
Inclusion of the employees of the
District under the federal compensa-
tion act covering injuries in the line
of duty is an act Of justice. This
should have been done before. The
District employees should be given the
fullest measure Of protection of the
compensation laws as they are in all
practical respects federal workers.
Under a provision proposed by the
committee it will be possible for the
United States to take immediate pos
session of land for which condemna-
tion proceedings have been instituted
in connection with the Anacostia fats
Improvement. This will permit more
rapid development of this important
project, from which great benefits will
flow to the capital community.

HEALTH" PAGEANT
GIVEN BY Y. w. C.. A.

NEW YORK. Aug. "A Health
Pageant is the newest production
Released by the Pageant and Drama
department of the Y. w. G. A. Under
the title OF. Shining Goddess" it was
presented last week by the girls of the
West side Branch of the Y. w. G. A.
at a private estate in Van Conrtlandt
Park.
The idea of the pageant. which
was part of the Pre- gram of the So
cial Educational Department was to
present. in an allegorical way the
various things that make for good
health and right living. Proper
foods. exercise and clothing were
sym bolized in very attractive way.
Fresh air" was a breezy little figure
made chiefly of balloons and bubbles
--"Rcst' a somber person in trailing
walls of gray.
Miss Clara Saekett. who wrote,
costumed and produced the pageant,
says that the girls who presented it
took a very keen interest in its teach
ing.
They were particularly Interested
in the various kinds of clothes and
shoes which the character Of Good
TasteY prescribed. They were eager
TO understand the kinds of food which
made for the best health, and how to
present them TO the greatest adyan-
tage.

Chaplin Docs "IIighbrOw'' Dances In
His Newest Production,
.'Sunnyside."

Il Charlie Chaplin expresses himself
/ in the new, aesthetic dances. which
are quite the. thing in the most artis-
tic circle, in "Sunnyside," his third
million dollar picture, released by
First National, which will be shown
at the Arcade theater commencing
/ Tuesday. The manner in which
Charlie gets in with a group of beau
tifully draped young girls which are
engaged in this sort of dance is quite
Cha Blinesque.
Such thing as riding cow is al
most never attempted in the country
even by the boy and girl who take
the cows out TO pasture and bring
them back at night. But Charlie at
tempts this when he tries to induce
COW to leave the church in which
the bossy has been breaking up meet
ing
Landing in a ditch on his head, the
little comedian goes into a state of
coma wherein he "sees things" While
these are imaginary to him, on the
screen they seem real enough, and
the sight of Charlie burlesquing the
serious sort Of dance which st. Denis,
and Hoffman, and other less famous
give, surrounded by beautiful young
girls. bare of limbs. furnishes a most
combination.
After this little advertisement
Charlie settles down to his real prob |
lem in the picture. that of saving the |
love of his rural sweetheart frord |
being stolen by ''city dude" who !
sppears in the community with fine |
autom obile.
