81 don't suppose there Is one coun-
try in the world that has suffered
more than Poland. There was a
time, several hundred years ago,
when Poland was a powerful ma
tion; but beginning with 1772. when
Prussia-the cornerstone of the
late German empire. and Russia
and Austria Hungary, attacked Po-
land and all but devoured that ma
ton. In fact, there wasn't really
any Poland left: what had been Po-
land, became parts of these other
three nations and the Polish people
were subjected to more or less
tyrannical governing.
Throughout the great war. be-
ginning in 1914, the land that COM
prised what is known as Poland
became practically one great bat
tlefield. The Russian armies under
the Gear. and the German armies
under the Kaiser surged back and

81 HAIR CUTS
NOT PROBABLE
Washington BARRIERS Fore
see Raise in Price But
Hardly to That Mark.

Fears Of Washington's male popu-
lation that the price OF a hair cut
would soon be over the top" and
heading for the dollar as the lowest
sum which King Barber would take
in exchange for a mere hair cut were
put at rest yesterday when q can
vass of the leading shops of the
city showed an overwhelming ma
jority Of the BARRIERS in favor of =
maximum charge Of SO cents.
Prices for hair cut now range from
20 TO 30 cents for a child. and from
25 to so cents for a man. A majority
of the shops maintain a price Of 80
cents.
In some of these il was admitted

1914. Millions are homeless and in
want"
But didn't the Peace Conference
give the Polish nation back to the
Polish people?" asked Jimmy.
That's what the Peace Confer
ence tried to do" replied Uncle
Harry. but the plan hasn't worked
out very well, so far. Different
groups of the Polish people have
various ideas as to what the Polish
nation should be. The owners of
the great land estates want to take
into the Polish nation all the land
extending to the lines that marked
the Polish nation in 1772 when, as
l told you. the nation was divided
by Russia. Prussia and Austria. The
Peace Conference decided that much
of this land that the great land
owners wanted was not really PO-
liSh land today. most Of the inhab-
itants being Russians But in spite
OF the ruling Of the, Peace Confer
ence. some of the Polish soldiers
have occupied this Russian land
and this has led to fighting between
the Polish and the Russian Soviet
armies. On the other hand, some
of the Polish people have disagreed
with the Polish land owners and
that has led to more trouble within
the country. Add to these troubles
the want and suffering of the Po-
lish people. and you can readily see
that Poland today. instead of being
a thriving new republic as 1t was
supposed it would be, is in a very
bad state. Lately. however. there
have been news reports indicating
that the Polish. along with some
of the other people who comprise

Central Powers Not Invited.
America and Canada already have
sent in a large number of entries
for the various competitions. Sew
eral foreign governments have been
invited to send officers to take part
in the cavalry events; France. Italy
and some of the South American
States will be represented. No inVi-
tations have been sent to Germany.
Austria. Turkey or Bulgaria.
The prizes offered amount in to-
tai value to $36,O0O. In 1914, the
King Edward VII cup was won out
right by Russia, and this year the
Prince of Wales will present a cup
to be competed for by teams of three
officers of any nationality. The
George V. gold cup has reached an
interesting stage. France has won
it twice. Russia once and Belgium
once. 1t will be competed for final

Army Gums Half of Worlds
Earliest Books on Science

Goldsmith some two centuries ago.
Out at the Army Medical Muse
um, Seventh and B streets sourh-
west, he would have found happ.-
ness, for in that building is collect
ed one of the finest libraries of
"old books" in America.
"Incunabula" is the term book
lovers use for all books printed
prior to 1900. OF about 500 such
books printed on medicine, approx
nately half way may be found in the
library in Washington-the largest
collection of it's kind in the world.
Old Printing Is Clear.
Under the glass of a case some
10 by feet are books worth S1CG.-
900, and they are only a part of the
collection.
When Gutenberg invented NOV
able type in 1850 and so ushered III
the era of modern printing. each
book was a work of art. The sprInI-
ing in a book 500 years old is as
clear in those that come from the
press in 1920, and in many of Them
