Girl Orphan Pledges 81
A Month to Armenia

Human interest incidents resulting
from the Near East Relief for Armen-
ian orphans, frequently come to the
attention of the officials in charge. The
following story is vouched for by Rich
mond leaders:
In one of the county churches, an
appeal was being made in behalf of
the Near East Relief, when a young
girl in the back part of the church
arose and eXhorted those present to
raise enough( money to adopt one
orphan.
She told them that she had been
left an orphan in destitute circum-
stances when quite young, and knew
the pangs of hunger and also the ex-
perience of being alone in the world.
She then declared that she would
contribute a dollar each month from
her small wages, towards the fund to
adopt an orphan. The required $50
was Immediately raised.

She Married an Average Man
BY ZOE BECKLEY

But what else could I do? She sees
she has been little Northumberland.
But she's going to turn over new leaf
She was very nice about the money
felt a good deal dashed over this
money part. l had not thought about
that But, of course, Jim was right.
One couldn't send her there without
anything in reserve. My private
opinion of Rose Green is that no en-
ployement, influence, friends or money
will keep her straight. There are
some girls who have to buy their own
experience in their own way. Never
theless, l am relieved beyond words
to know she is going tomorrow. The
only annoying feature of the whole
thing is that she has Jims money in
her purse.

that Louis B. Mayer. the motion

sent his first super special photo
play production in New York City.
with a specially acted prologue, and
at the SO scale of prices, it was

Mayer. who arrived in the Capital
yesterday, that this much talked of
picture, THE Woman In His House" ."
will be given its world premiere in
Washington the week of October 10.
The Washington presentation Of
this film will establish the national
exhibition value of the picture and
serve as the basis upon which ter
ritoriaI assessments of rental
charges will be fixed for the entire
United States.
Rudolph pointed out that First

Demand for homes of the six

Herald in its efforts to gather for
tiOn committee statistics as to the

Approve Efforts.
Unqualified approval is given in
the replies to efforts of realtors to
permanently help the situation. Not
a few of the replies view the Ball
rent resolution and subsequent rent
restriction laws as a deterrent to
home relief here.
A number who responded indicate
that they have tried for the past
but have failed. They do not seek
rental quarters at pre-war igures
either.
More Replies Needed.
The housing investigation COM
mittee is anxious to get all of the
replies in as quickly as possible so
that it can go ahead with the work
Of providing the much needed re-
lief.
