That the Wisconsin legislature will
maintain the high standard Of teach
ing in this state was indicated on Tues
day when the senate amended and adj
vanced Senator Roy z. Wilcox's bill,
providing for minimum salary OF SO
for school teachers. The bill was or
dered engrossed by vote Of IS 10 5 and
the next step will be final passage.
If the bill is passed the salaries of
1000 state teachers, who are now re.
ceiving less than $40 month, will be
increased. Senator Wilcox urged the
increase on the ground that the quail.
ications for teachers would be raised
next year, and that instead OF two
years OF high school and one year Of
special training, four years of high
school and two years of additional
training will be required.

By reference to an advertisement in
today's Pilot it will be seen that the
Board of Supervisors advertise the
Poor Farm and appurtenances for
sale. Here is a good chance for the
editor of the Tribune or some other
miserable cuss to procure a poor farm
of his own without being subject to
refusal for relief by the Poor Commits
sioners.

The Girls They Left Behind Them.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
We are two girls working here
in Washington and for some tim.
have been going around with two
young soldiers stationed here. These
two men have recently been dis
charged aGd have gone to their
homes in ire West. Conditions are
such that it may be many wears
oeIore we can ever see them again.
Ihey made a vow, however. that
in 1920 they would come East 70
see us. We had all become very
we are afraid that now that the
country divides US they will forget
us. and we feel that already thew
are losing interest. These younr
men mean great deal to us and
we know we meant a great deal TO
them while they were here.
How can we keep them inter.s,ad
so they will keep their VOW in 1920
as 1t will break our hearts to have
II all end so soon We want to
go on being something in their
lives, as they are the only ones
who are anything in ours. and we
thought you might help US and tell
US what to do.
BERTHA AND LILLIAN
Your question is a very difficult
one to answer; the only way to
keep in touch with absent friends
is by means Of letters, and they
are often highly unsatisfactory.
particularly where people are
young, care deeply and are abnor-
mally sensitive. Offense is often
taken and given where none is
meant
You will have to trust largely TO
Providence, and in the meantime
keep AS many interests going as
you can manage. This will serve
to make your letters interesting
and keep you from brooding over
the absent soldiers too constantly.
In the meantime cultivate young
friends and get all the innocent
enjoyment you can out of life.
Everyone loves cheer. Do you re-
member that much-discussed line:
Laugh and the world laughs with
you; weep and you weep alone"

Beatrice Fairfax Writes of the Problems the War
Especially for Washington Women

A YOUNG woman war
~ worker, who has just
received an honorable
discharge" from the Government
bureau in which she has been
working since we declared war,
has written an interesting letter
to this column. She says when
she first came to Washington she
hated it, then she grew to like
it, and now she regards the
thought of leaving 1T with dis
may.
She thinks a good many other
war workers must be in the same
position as she is, and asks for
little discussion in this depart
ment of the problem that, for
want Of a better name, might be
termed, "Where Do We Go From
Here-Girls ?"
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

months ago turned your column
into n wailing place and repudiated

nected with it. really believe it

little contribution to humanity had
the effect OF making me feel more
satisfied with things in general.
And I,came through the experience
with several good friends to my
credit. women who had also acted
as volunteer nurses. And then
things began to be as pleasant and
interesting as they had been dreary
before.
These young women were all col
lege graduates, and they were end

and they had numbers OF men

war bureaus, not to mention a good
many in the service. j never i'm

THAT FIRST MOVIE SHOW,

Sir: The first moving picture
theater in this city was at the cor
ner Of Tenth and d streets north
west; not Tenth and E as you stated
yesterday. II was known as the
Star Theater on account of having
an electrically lighted red star over
the entrance, but there was no Sign
such as is now used. The second one
was also on d street, near Tenth; |
think in the old Ward building. Both
Of these were rather crude. both as
to films and furniture, the latter
consisting Of chairs arranged in
rows. The Pickwick, and also an
other theater, whose name / have
now forgotten, was on the north side
of the Avenue, between Ninth and
Tenth streets. The one whose name
/ cannot recall was about where the
Peter Rabbit hat store is now To-
Gated. These two ran close for third
and fourth place. There was also
another one on the south side of the
Avenue, near Ninth street. think
it was called the Argo, and vas stu
ated about where Guiffre's shoe re
pair shop is at present. This one
had a very short life. The first
large-size movies in the city were
shown at Willard Hall, in 1897, and
consisted of a series Of seven de-
tached views, one of the famous
Black Diamond Express on the Le-
high Valley Railroad: another of a
baby learning to walk; another of
two babies in high chairs in an ana
teur scrap; another of two chaps
falling out over a friendly rarne of
cards: another Of a chimney beinf
demolished-the others have for

which the power house burned p
