Detective Sergeant SCRIVENER performed a brave
and noteworthy feat which will live long in the annals OF
the Police Department, in his arrest of the murderous
escaped convict Brown Not only will his deed reflect glory
and honor the department, but it will be warning to
criminals that Washington is place for them to seek
shelter Too many brave of the department have been
killed by desperate criminals in the past and the only pity
is that the record is not the other way

Uses for Old Newspapers.

Bundle up old newspapers and
sell them to the junk man. The
price received is much higher than
formerly.
All garbage cans should be 'incd
with old newspapers Us soon as
they are emptied. This keeps them
from rusting and from acquiring a
bad odor. Bits OF food and refuse
from the table and kitchen should
be drained of all liquid and wrapped
in paper. before being placed in
the garbage can.
Housek eepers can save them
selves much work on rainy days by
spreading papers over the floors.
The iceman's feet usually need to

are said to provide much warmth

Birth Rate and Weather.

Next to discovering sure cures for
tuberculosis and cancer, nothing so
tempts the professional ambition of
doctors OF the research diathesis as
the itch to explain things that re-
fuse to stay explained. One of the
celebrated physicians and biologists
of France has just staked his repu-
tation in a thesis which makes the
weather account for the disturbing
subnormality and steady decline OF
the French birth rate. For thirty
years. according to DR.. A. Magels-
sen. the temperature of Western
Europe has been falling, and 1t is
within that period-twenty years
on his schedule-that the birth rate
has fallen so appreciably as to
alarm legislators. statesmen and
moralists. In DR.. Magelssen's judg-
ment. the only factor responsible Is
the meteorological. and that because
the temperature OF Western Europe
has been going down IL he has not
been deceived by the significance OF
the reports from the weather de-
partments of Paris. Berlin and
Vienna.
The reason is that the lower tenn.
perature Affects the human biologi-
cal organism unfavorably, to sup
port which he cites the universally,
known fact that the birth rate is
higher In tropical and semitropical
clines than in ones far to the North.
The Paris biologists case would
look much stronger II he had proofs
in statistics that the temperature
has steadily dropped in It's annulsr

ished birth rate. But ms n change

Go. Lose conquer you can;
But IL you fall or II you rise.
Be each, pray God. gentleman.
There's a bit Of verse written by
a poet and scholar of New England
some years ago. Don't toss it aside
as an expression OF snobbshness;
don't, for the sake of your own
good and happiness, permit your
self to read it literally.
The esprit of that verse is fine.
The literal expression of it came to
me in a spirit of derision after I'd
read the days mail. Let me quote
you a bit from three of the days
letters:
as it proper for a girl to accept
jewelry from a young man with
whom she is keeping company, but
to whom she is not engaged?"
"Who speaks first when meeting
casually on the street.-the girl or
the man? I think a gentleman
should tip his hat first"
my fiancee is in mourning for
her brother. She thinks I ought
not to go to any parties since she
cannot for year. This is likely to
part us unless you settle it by tell
ing US the proper way to settle it,"
Now, do you see why the verse I
quoted amused and yet annoyed
me?"
It's because in the process of try
ing to decide what's proper. polite.
according to the usages OF good
society, gentlemanly-perh we
are so likely to lose track of what
is kind. dignfed, thoughtful and

Propriety and correctness are
matters of social usage, of custom.

OF humanity.

THE "GJNGHAM JAMES,"


Contributors say sharp things s'to
"Goldie" regarding her remarks about
the "Gingham James" of the Georgia
avenue car and other car lines whom
she refused to sit opposite to in the
cars because of their insufferable
scrutiny" She stated that she pre-
ferred to sit opposite to and be ad-
mired by cake-eater or an old
gentleman than to be glanced over
in scorn simply because she was dress

that her views of life do not accord

OF Washington people. He adds:

It's the Man, and Not
Street Cars or Automobiles

Washington girls almost unani-
mously tell "SLIM" that they think
as much of boys who take them out
in street cars as they do of more
fortunate chaps who speed them
around in automobiles. They like au-
tomobiles, it's true, but it's the man
they think of and not the method Of
transportation. At least, that's what
the majority say, although a good
many show signs of preferring the
automobilist. The indications are
that the question propounded by
"Slim" is going to arouse much COM
ment. Here are some of the views:
From GERTIE-I do not consider
the way ] am taken TO place OF
amusement but only Of the person who
is taking me. have ridden to amuse-
ment resorts in autos and in street
cars and have really enjoyed my COM
pany on the cars better than In ma

From ONE WHO KNows"-I think
more Of the street car fellows, for II

she is with she wants people to see
her with him and let them know how
proud she b of him
From "BOBBIE"-I have respect
for any young man who is a gentle
man no matter what kind of trans
portation he uses to convey us.
"OulO not TeIuse an invitation TO 20

Is all right.
From SALLY think just as much
of the fellows who take me to Glen
Echo or elsewhere street cars a.

ably just little more.

agree with me.
From ''ME'-Girls respect boys who
haven't autos and enjoy going with
them. but it's much nicer to hop in an
automobile than to fight your way
into crowded street cars. Where girl
is asked by two boys, with
auto and one without, it's up to the
girl. that's all.
From TINY-Give me the fellow with
the automobile every time. My respect
for the other fellow is not lessened.
