ALI SCHOOL DAY, THE Greatest PICNIC DAY EVER
HELD FOR RICHMOND CHILDREN; 5000 TAKE PART

We would like to have stood all
| the children who went on the All
School picnic-about $500 or 5000
of them-Wednesday, June Is, in
row, about 4 o'clock that after
noon and have tried to figure out
which one had acquired the heay-
lest coat of sunburn during the day.
1t would have been a difficult prob
lem to decide, but it would have
been even more difficult to have
tried to measure who had the best
time. In fact it just could not be
decided, a question like that, be-
cause every single boy and girl that
went on the picnic had such a
splendid long, wonderful picnic
day, far too good to be measured
and far too much fun to put in a
measuring cup.
Marched With Good Step.
The children who marched In the
long parade walked along with a
quick, steady pace, making a good
marching appearance to all the
people watching them.
An American flag carried by a
soldier in uniform headed the pro-
cession, followed Immediately by
the Garfield drum corps and the
officers Of the Richmond public
schools.
Then came the school children,
each school announced by ban
ner in the schools colors, carried
by two of the higher grade boys.
All the children wore ribbon
around their arms Or some mark OF
the school color Third grade chill
dren headed the parade, followed
by fourth, fifth and sixth grades.
Children In the lower grades were

It was Duse who made d'Annunzio's plays known to the world She acted in them not only in Italy but in this country and in all the chief capitals of Europa. While she was the leading figure. every q 'Annunzio play was a success. The Italian public rebelled at La Gioconda,' but rather than have it's playwright discouraged. Duse took it to London, which gratefully accepted it.
 Then came the break. Suddenly. fl was known that Duse and d'Annun- zio had separated. and later came bis sensational novel, I'll Fuoco." which was brazenly advertised by the pub fisher as the true history of their love affair. Needless to say. the royalties from this novel were greater thar from any other d'Annunzio evel wrote.

The Kiwans and Rotary clubs and the Chamber of Commerce have shown a splendid spirit in their active support of bond proposition in which the taxpayers will vote Friday It was expected that they would this for they exist for other purpose than to forward the interests the munity And it is that the bond issues have been proposed.
 The work of these civic bodies is not yet com pete It will be complete until the polls close on Friday evening and do not believe it will be abandoned until then
 The influence which these bodies have exerted yrust have turned many in favor of the bonds who otherwise would have been against them.

THE STORY OF DUSE

few small successes before that. but 1t was in her 25th year in Naples. after her first sad love affair, that she brought the Italian public to her feet.
 Her First Success Her first opportunity came in Zola's play, "Therese - auin." The leading woman. then .e greatest actress in Italy, was suddenly taken i'll one night, and Duse went on in her part without rehearsal, scoring a remarkable triumph. Soon afterward she was starred in Dumas play Femme de Claude. Dumas was her favorite French dramatist and she helped to make many of his plays famous. The two were very good friends. corresponding frequently with one another, but they met but once. It was characteristic of I,use to be so moved at this meeting that she burst into tears. It was in an- swer to Dumas persuasion that she
 went to Paris for a first brief tour. secretly fearful that she would fail.
 But the French people gave her such
 an enthusiastic welcome that for once. she told a friend, she was really
 happy.
 Then, Dumas. her devoted friend died. Her greatest ovation was re-
 ceived on what she afterwards de- 1 clared ta be one of the sadd est days
 in her life-the day she acted to ob- tain memorial for Dumas grave. Just when Gabrielle dAnnunzio

 Bad business. This is why, says the Red Cross:
 There two kinds of foods-repar foods and fuel foods
 Repair foods called "protens' by doctors include meat eggs, They rebuild body tissues that have been wasted through exercise and muscular work
 Fuel foods include bread vegetables sugar, but ter etc Doctors call them carbohydrates fats" They keep the machinery of the body in mo- rion. and store up energy and heat.
 You need both fuel foods and repair foods.
