LIVING MODELS AS
AIDS IN LECTURE
"CIothes," Miss Johnson's
Theme at Central High
Tuesday Night.

Living models. some of them local
high school students and some i'm
ported from New York for the occa-
sion, are to be a special feature in
connection with the lecture on
CLOTHES to be given by Miss Helen
Louise Johnson Tuesday evening at
8 o'clock at the auditorium of Cen
trail High School Her appearance
will be under the auspices of the Busi-
ness Women's Council" a fiourishing
organization affiliated with the Dis
trict Y. w. C. A.
This event is nothing in the nature
of style show except in SO far
as useful and harmonious styles will
be emphasized Miss johnson, who
is prominent in the Federation of
on women's dress, intends to discuss
clothes for women and girls from
the physical, artistic and economic
standpoints. The assisting models
will demonstrate what is proper in
Vine and color for different figures
and compilations. Mrs. H B. Bright
of New York, who has worked out
number OF interesting designs in
eiothing for women, will assist the
lecturer and will bring models from
the metropolis. Other models will be
members of the Business Women's
Council and girls from Central High,
School. They will display costumes
suitable for high school girls for
business women and for women in
the home. A stringed orchestra will
furnish music for the occasion, tick
cts for which may be procured at
~" headquarters. 1888 street. or
the ''Y' branch at 614 E street north
west.
IF I'd known what this was. /
would have made my daughter attend
instead of keeping her at home. /
Thought 1t would be the usual tempt
ing style show" said one mother in
the middle west, according to Mrs.
Janet c. Thurston of this city, who
has had experience with similar af-
fairs in various states and who says
that as far as she can ascertain this
will be the first Of its kind in Wash
1ngton. Mrs. Thurston points out that
one of these clothes talks was given
for the first time in Iowa at the state
fair two years ago. Last year it
proved one of the biggest features at
the same fair, and now is put on at
every county fair in that state. Sue
cess has been general throughout
the middle west, she adds.
Many women could be much bet
ter dressed on the same money If they
considered with more thought the
adaptabi1ity Of a new garment to the
already existing wardrobe as against
its intrinsic beauty" explains Mrs
Thurston, "and also the subject of
the proper clothes for the proper
place and time. Miss Johnson intends
to help them to do this"

AMERICANS SAVE DvINSK.
Red Cross Workers Feed, Treat and
Clothe Suffering Peoples.

RIGA, Russia, April 2o.-Under the
direction of Capt. John c. Whitney of
Bridgeport, Ohio. number of Amer
Jean Red Cross workers have virtual
1y restored life to the dead city"
of Dvinsk. Capt. Whitney. with his
small group of workers entered
Dvinsk in January and found 10000
of the population still alive The
Poles had occupied the city three
days prior to the arrival of the Red
Cross contingent. Smallpox was rag
ing and no shops were open. 1t was
impossible to obtain the necessaries
rf life.
After weeks work 5000 persons
were being fec under the supervision
az the Red Cross in soup kitchens.
Two hospitals had been erected ano
clothing issued to 5000 persons. This
work continued in an increasing
aaeasure throughout the winter, and
ihe latest reports are to the effect
that Dvinsk rapidly is approaching
Normal life.

ROD AND REEL.

Wet and cold weather has. inter.
rupted sport on the river about the
city several times the past two weeks
White perch were caught in large
plumbers while the water was in good
condition, but high and muddy water
kept sportsmen from the river much
of the time.
Since the water became muddy the
middle of the week, many persons
found sport between Aqueduct and
Chain bridges snagging herring. Not
only were many herring snagged yes
stated. but snaggers. succeeded in
getting number Of white perch and
. few shad.
There is scarcely any probability
E the water becoming clear enough
for fishing by tomorrow, and hun
dreds of anglers will be disappointed
Some of the older perch fishermen saw
Ihey do not care for clear water in
which to try their luck, believing
slightly stained water means better
catches.
There will be many sportsmen on
the river tomorrow. no matter what
the condition of the water should be-
and many sportsmen who realize it
will be useless to sit on the river and
cast bait for the fish probably will
visit the marshes and search for
turtles. Many large, turtles already
have been captured.
'Hardheads are running" was the
report received from Benedict the
middle of the week. and it is probable
that numerous sportsmen will be on
hand there tomorrow morning to try
their luck.
Sportsmen are not surprised at the
reported presence of the ma ldheads in
Patuxent waters. Many shipments of
such fish were received from the
lower Potomac last week, and, it is
stated. they usually are in evidence
in the Patuxent earlier than in the
Potomac

WHEN is A MAN A MAN2

When he can look out over the
rivers, the hills, and the far
horizon with a profound sense Of
his own littlencss in the vast
scheme of things, and yet have
faith, hope, and couragc-which
is the root Of every virtue. When
he knows that down in his heart
every man is as noble, as vile, as
divine, as diabolic, and as lonely
us himself, and seeks to know, to
forgive and to love his fellow man.
When he knows how to sympa
thizc with men in their sorrows,
yea, even in their sinS-knowing
that each man fights a hard fight
against many odds. When he has
learned how to make friends and
to keep them, and above all how
to keep friends with himself.
When he loves flowers, can hunt
birds without a gun, and feels the
thrill of an old forgotten JOY
when he hears the laugh Of a little
child. When he can be happy and
high-minded amid the mcaner
drudgerics of life. When the star
crowned trees, and the CLINT of
sunlight on flowing waters, sub
due him like the thought of one
much loved and long dead. When
no voice Of distress reaches his
ears in vain, and no hand seeks
his aid without response. When
he finds good in every faith that
helps any man to lay hold Of
divine things and sees majestic
meanings in life, whatever the
name Of that faith may be. When
he can look into a way-Slde puddle
and see something beyond mud,
and into the face of the most for
iorn mortal and see something be-
yond sin. When he knows how to
pray, how to live, how to hope.
When he kept faith with himself,
with his fellow men, with his GOD;
in his hand a sword for evil, in
his heart a bit Of song--glad to
live, but not afraid to die!

Ode to the Girl
(By One of the Boys)

Little girl, you are so small,
Don't you wear no clothes at all ?
Don't you wear no shimmy shirt ?
Don t You wear no "petti" skirt ?
Just your corsets and your hose
Are those all your underclothes
Little girl, you look so slight
When | see you in the light.
With your skirts cut rather high
Won't you catch a cold and die?
Aren' t you 'fraid to show your
calf?
1t must make the fellows laugh!
Little girl, what is the cause?
Why your clothes all made of
gauze?
Don t you wear no mdervest
When you go out fully dressed2
Do you like those peek-a-boos,
Stead of normal underclothes?
Little girl, your 'spenders show
When the sunshine plays just so.
| can see your tinted flesh
Through your thinnest gown Of
mesh;
Is it modest, do you s'pOse,
Not to wear no nderclothes?
| can see way past your throat
To a region most remote;
'Taint my fault, now, don't
suppose,
Why not wear some underclothes ?
Little girl, your socks have shoals
Of those tiny little holes;
Why you want to show your limb
| do not know, is it a whimP
Do you want to catch the eye
Of each fellow passing by
Little girl, where is the charm
In your long, uncovered arm?
And the "V" behind your neck
Is it for the birds to peck?
Little girl, tell you those
Are not as nice as underclothes.
Little girl, now listen here;
You would be just twice as dear
If you'd cover up your charms
Neck, back, legs and both your
arms.
| would take you to some shows
If YOU d wear some mderclOthes
But no lover-goodness knows
Wants a girl "sans Umderclothes. "
Little girl, your mystery,
Loving charms and modcsty,
Are what make us fellows keen
10 possess a little queen.
IS pose I wore some harcm pants,
.Or no shirt like all my aunts,
or a ringlet through my nose
They'd arrest me, don't you s'poSc
! must wear a coat Of mail,
Clothed from head to big toe nail
Unjust cover up my form,
Even when the weather S warm.

CALVES, CHICKENS AND
CHILDREN

Pa warns the milk for the little
calf,
Ma heats the food for the
chicks;
They eat a hot dinner at noon
time, too,
But my lunch is as cold as
bricks.
We have a hot lunch at our school
now;
There's cocoa or soup that's hot
as the dickens;
We fill up our cups as we pass
along,
They've decided now we're as
good as the chickens,
Do you know that there are
100000 children, or one out OF
every four, in the United States
suffering from under nourishment,
and that $4,000 children die
every year from poor or deficient
food2 Not from lack of food, m-
derstand, but improper food.
One line Of help for the better
mcnt of the mamourishcd child
is the hot lunch at schO0l-either
a hot dish to supplement the lunch
brought from home or the entire
lunch served at the school.
The greatest need for the hot
lunch is found in the rural schools.
There are hundreds of children in
Washington who leave their home
for school buildings at 1870 or
8 100 O'Clock in the morning and
do not return home again until 5
or $50 in the evening. They
snatch a hurried breakfast in the
morning, make the long trip in
the school wagon, or go horseback
or perhaps walk; have a cold
lunch at noon and make the re-
turn trip home having had no
other food than a cold lunch that
probably has been prepared in a
hurry.
