THIS is WORSE'N WAR!
Little Youngsters Lost" Since Big
Brothers Went to School

The little youngsters of too tender
age for learning are having lot of
trouble these days trying to kill time
while their older brothers and sisters
are of to school.
Time was during the summer months
when little John or Mary could tag
along to play with their not very senior
seniors after a wild: Me go to-"
But no amount of "Me go too's'' will
persuade either the youthful students
or mother to pack John or Mary along
to school.
"John's too little for school. says
mother.
"Y' oughta be glad Y don't hafta
go :" says eight year old Bob.
And John and Mary stay home to
wander aimlessly about the house all the
long wearisome day looking for some
thing to do and generally finding trou
ble-for mother.
And relief doesn't come when schoO
is out For then John and Mary are
hushed and isolated to another room
because John and Mary mustn't dig
turb brother and sister while they are
studying their hard lessons"

Congressman Moore. said by Senator
Ware to occupy an attic as his voting
residence here, lives in a modern, well
furnished apartment. with hardwood
floors, electric light end other convent
ences, at 269 South Fourth street.
The dwelling at 2009 South Broad
street, chosen by Senator Ware as his
voting residence, is sparsely furnished
and without water, telephone or light
the only illumination being provided
by portable electric lamps, according to
testimony yesterday at the hearing to
establish Mr.. Vare's right to vote in
Philadelphia.
Moore lives is an old fashioned build
ing. He occupies an apartment on the
third floor. He is to take over the
upper floor of the dwelling, according
to j. =. Tierney, his landlord, as soon
as the lease of the tenant Of the second
floor expires.
Formerly Congressman Moore lived
in the house adjoining, 271 South

JULIUS KAHN ENDORSES
MOORE'S WAR RECORD
Committee Declares Congress-
mans Letter Answers Charges
Made by Robins

The Moore campaign committee to-
day received a letter from Congress
man Julius Kahn, chairman of the
House committee on military affairs, in
which he indorspd Congressman Moore's
war record in Congress.
The Moore committee said that the
Kahn letter was a complete answer to
the attacks on Mr.. Moore which had
been made by Thomas Robins, chair e
man of the Patterson committee of one
thousand
The letter, addressed to Mr. Moore,
follows:
II have your letter of September 4
and note what you say. Without tax %
ing the time to look up all Of the ques-
tions affecting the war, feel quite pos
tive that you voted on those questions
just us / did. / do not recall single
instance where we differed On those i'm e
portant problems.
TN regard to the Roosevelt matter,
l did not vote for the sending of a
volunteer division under Colonel ROOse
welt. In fact, told the latter when
he discussed the matter with rue that
it was n question that the President
could decide without congressional
enactment. After having championed
the selective draft law and fought the
volunteer system, did not deem ID wise
or advisable to make special excep-
tion for any individual. Such legisla
tion, in my opinion, would have had a
tendency to cause others to propose ex
reptions. and such an assault on the
basic principles involved would have
materially weakened the selective draft
law. Therefore 7 voted against the
provision.
My recollection is that you voted tht
same way for similar reasons

the city through the mire.
''They fight the Wares. Why sdon t
they stand up and fight me?
IF a man came to me and wanted

down the street I'd stand up and
give him a fair fight, and If he licked
me would take off my hat to him, and
If licked him I would expect the same
from him.
Big crowds, as was to be expected
greeted Judge Patterson on his swing
through South Philadelphia. He made
four speeches for five wards.
At the meeting at Broad street and
Snyder avenue for the combined Thirty

presence Of Senator Ware, that he was
going to be Embossed as Mayor

Four of the six companies of the
battalion of the 63d Infantry en-
carfped on East Potomac Park will
leave here within the next few days
for Madison barracks, at Sacketts
Harbor, on Lake Ontario. The battal-
ion is commanded by Col. o. j. Nell
son. The headquarters company, the

will be transferred to the post in
northern New York.
The two companies remaining here

quantities of quartermaster supplies
are stored in the buildings erected in
the park during the war and occupied
for a brief period by the Washington
battalion, composed of enlisted men
employed in clerical work in various
bureaus of the War Department
The departure of the 63d Infantry
Band will interfere with the plan to
have daily concerts in the public
parks of the District, and the schedule
bands were available for those con-
certs Since then the Engineer Band
at Washington barracks has been
called away for service at Camp
