THE ENTERPR1sING STORE.

Retail stores are of different types.
Many merchants do faithful and hon
est work, but can not get out of the
rut into which they have fallen. They
run along on about the same lines
of goods each year, and are not wide
awake to get special values and pick
up bargain lots. The people who
buy of them do not get cheated, but
they are not likely to get exceptional
values, and they could buy cheaper
at a different type of store.
Some merchants, however, are al
ways more wide awake to get the very
best values the market can afford.
They, are constantly studying condi-
tions, comparing the offers of eates-
men, looking for special chances to
pick up good lots. They are keen
judges of values, and are quick to see
that certain offering has exceptional
value.

DR.. FOWLER PREPARES
NEW milk MEASURE
Health Officer Will Submit Draft
to Commissioners and Ask
, for Legislative Action.

Health Officer Fowler will lay be-
fore the Commissioners within a few
days the draft OF new law to gov
ern the shipment of milk into the
District. which he will ask the city
heads TO transmit to Congress for
enactment.
The health officer has been devot-
Ing much time recently to the franz
ing of the proposed legislation. which,
in his opinion. will throw reasonable
safeguards around Washington's milk
supply without placing undue burdens
upon the producers.
In order TO iron out as many diff
ferences of opinion as possible before
submitting the bill to the Commission
ers, Dr. Fowler has held conferences
recently with various groups interest
ef A few days ago he conferred for
several hours with the producers of
nearby Maryland and Virginia, and
yesterday he met committees from the
Board of Trade and Chamber of Com
merce.
The only step to be taken before
the bill is submitted to the Commits
sionerS is to have the corporation
counsel pass upon the legal phrase
oiogy.

CAUTIONED
BEFORE HIS REMOVAL
Letters in Evidence Before Naval
Court Show He Was Warned
on Convoy Service.

Documents showing that Rear Ad-
miral William B. Fletcher was warned
by Admiral Sims six weeks before he
was detached from the Brest COM
mand in October. 1917. that his con-
voy forces were not giving adequate
protection to vessels off the French
coast were introduced in evidence
yesterday before the naval court OF
inquiry Investigating the circum-
stances of Admiral Fletcher's re-
moval.
Counsel for Admiral Sims produced
several communications from Sims to
Fletcher. The first, dated September
Z, empha sized need for greater pre-
cision and regularity in convoy op-
erations, and contained a report from
the CHIEF of naval operations to Adj
miral Sims that two transport con-
voys had been intrusted to entirely
too inadequate escort upon leaving
the French coast. Three weeks later
Admiral Sims again wrote the Brest
commander emphasizing the need for
greater protection TO re turning trans
ports and declaring himself to be
ready to help carry out any remedy
admiral Fletcher would suggest, but
that present conditions would not
be permitted to continue"
Admiral Fletcher declared under eX-
animation that he realized the situa-
ton demanded remedying, but that
TIE only remedy lay in augmentinS
his small and poorly adapted convoy
forces" Repeated representations to
this effect had been made to Admiral
Sims, he said, but with small result
up to the time Of his detachment.

HOSPITAL TAG DAY
FOR BABIES OF D. c.
Columbia Institution Seeks
Aid for Children
at Birth.

Arrangements for tag day for the
benefit OF Columbia Hospital for
Women to be held next Saturday were
announced last night by Mrs. II. b.
Learned. chairman of the women's
auxiliary board of the hospital.
The city will be canvassed by
contributions for the Easter tags.
Booths will be installed in hotel lob
bies. department stores and other pub
lie places Washington will be di-
vfded into sections. to each of which
subcommittee will be assigned.
Facing Strenuous Period.
a statement issued last night de-
Slared that the hospital was facing
the most strenuous period of its ca
reer. 1t is filled to capacity both in
the: maternity wing and in the wing
set aside for patients afflicted with
illnesses.
During the past year. according to
an estimate by an official of the hos
pital. more than 1,200 babies were
brought to life within its walls. and
Washington's birth rate is not esti-
mated at more than 5000 for the year.
More than half of these cases were
cared for in wards either free or for
which a nominal charge, meaning ex-
penditure of approximately SO per day
by the hospital. was made.
The higher cost of living. hospital
supplies and other requisites has
raised the current expenditures to
such level that extra supplies and
equipment can only be secured
through an appeal to the public.
For Washington Babies.
TT Is for Washington babies that
the tag day is being held" Mrs
Learned said last night. In many
cases We are compelled not only to
furnish some babies with clothing
during the time they are in the hos
pital. but also when they are leaving
the hospital. For this reason we are
compelled to make an appeal to the
public.
Columbia has earned it's right. we
feel. to appeal to the public. since it
is virtually Washington's only hos
pital for women and babies. since
nearly one out of every eight children
born in the District each year is
brought into life there. and since it
serves every class in the community
through its private rooms, free
wards and diSpenSary."
At present, according to estimates
at the hospital, there is a daily aver
age population of sixty babies. For
them $50 dresses, pink, white and blue
are needed: eighty bands eighty
shirts. eighty sheets, and more than
100 baby blankets.
