HOMEOPATHS WILL

Unusual attention will be given
to the coming meeting Of the Amer

PARK
ONCE LOCKED UP
Old-Time Resident Recalls
Washington in Days of
President Buchanan.

"Sixty-four years ago" said Mrs
Mary wohlfsrth, 1918 Church street
northwest, Lafayette Park oppo-
site the white House, was sur
rounded by a high board fence, the
gates of which were locked prompt
ly at . o'clock in the evening. Many
the absorbed lover caught inside
the park who wore out his only
suit in an effort to pull the fright
ened lady over the fence
Mrs. wohlfarth,, who is 81 years
day that James Buchanan was
elected President of the United
States and has been a continuous
resident of the city since that time.
In those early days of her expert
ence in Washington, said Mrs.
wahlfarth. the pigs and cows ran
wild in the Capital City. There
were no paved streets and no side
walks and the unfortunate who
possessed but one pair of shoes
counted on spending all Saturday
evening in washing his footwear in
order to make respectable ap-
pearance on Sunday.
On May 1. 1857. when Mrs. wohi-
farth and her sister wanted to wash
their faces in the May Day dew to
prevent the dreaded freckles, they
rose early in the morning and
walked from the home near Seven
teenth and H streets northwest far
out in the country, as 1t seemed to
them, to a dense forest.
Where do you think that forest
was? Fourteenth and streets

How About Aviation!

The average citizen Is llkely 10
believe that the science OF nying is
a swiftly advancing science, Great
ing new ideas and perfecting old
ones with lightning rapidity. Much
is heard Of the possibilities OF aero
nautics. How have these possibili-
ties been developed?
Wonderful strides were made dur
ing the war. Indeed the war is the
chief reason for its present promi-
nence. Aviation must necessarily 60
forward. 1t can not stagnate. What
has been done since November.
1918? No really practical advances
in design or successful accomplish
ment have been made.
Freak machines with extremely
fast landing speeds have made very
high speed records, accompanied by
equally high mortality records. They
can be used only by the daredevil
or the professional stunter.
All metal planes have been con-
strueted and herslded as a wonder
full step in advance, but they are
machines of German war design.
and moreover have an appalling
tendency to come down in flames
The famous NC dying boats OF
the navy made the first trans-At-
lantic flight in May, 1919, but they
lost two out of three machines, and
besides, the NC boats are war-de-
sign naval bombing planes.
Caproni, the Italian designer, has
built a remarkable machine intend
ed to carry 100 passengers across
the Atlantic, and possessing 5000
horsepower. but 1t was wrecked in
its trial flight.
The British dirigible R-34 crossed
the Atlantic and back in July. 1919,
only to be lost in wind storm
later. II was a copy of the German
war Zeppelin.
Aviation sea auxiliaries have been
designed and built. but they embody
no ideas not worked out on the air
craft carriers and tenders used by
the British and Italians during the
war.
1t is evident that aviation has
made no steps forward in the past
two and one-half years, and more
over, the large number of wrecks
seems to point to the fact that even
accepted designs have not been i'm
proved. Was the limit reached dur
ing the empelling necessity of war;
have the Inherent instability Of air.
craft and their dependence on favor
able weather conditions interposed
a barrier that can not be surmount-
ed by designers?

YAP MINTS MONEY
ATSTONE QUARRY
Isle of Cable Controversy
Has Unique System
of Finances.

Yap, the tiny island which has
burst into world prominence as the
storm center of an international
cable controversy. has perhaps the
most peculiar monetary system on
earth.
The best equipment for max
Ing money in zap consists Of pick,
shovel, chisel, mallet, etc. for the
money Of the Yappers is made Of
stone. A kind of white limestone
Is cut in a circular shape with a.
hole through the center. These
coins, or "fei," as the Yappers call
them, vary in size from the small
ones carried on a string to the
large ones which measure four
feet or more in diameter.
Naturally an American smiles as
he pictures in his minds eye these
poor uncultured people trudging to
market to buy a loaf of bread and
a can of sardines, and carrying to
the grocer 4 fer of sufficient pro-
portions to cover the bill for such
luxuries as these-but he who
laughs last laughs best. and there
is where your Yappef begins. In
stead of carrying around a couple
OF pounds Of silver and a roll of
bills large enough to choke a hip
popotamus in order to meet his
every day expenses, Mr.. Yapper
rolls his fei up against the corner
of his hut and trades~on credit for
the balance of his life, for all ordi-
nary transactions are executed on
credit basis. 1t Is very seldom. in
deed. that q large "fei" chances
hands.
An incident illustrating this Pc
culiar trading system is that of the
man who lost his fei in the ocean.
He had quarried a very large and
beautiful fei on a distant island.
When the work was completed, he
built a raft and commenced his
homeward journey. Unfortunately.
however. a terrific storm uddenly
arose. making it impossible for him
to keep both his treasure and him
self on board. Like many another.
he concluded that a poor live man
was better off than a rich dead one,
and so he pushed his cargo into the
Pacific. On reaching home the sad
story was told, but the good peo-
pie of Yap were sorrowful over the
loss sustained by their fellow, and
declared that so long as the where
abouts of fei was known. It could
not be lost. and, as the man could
prove his statement by companions
who accompanied him on the trip,
II was ruled that he was still the
possessor of this fei and might
trade on II. even though 1t was at
the bottom Of the ocean. The re-
suit was that he lived in luxury
the rest Of his life, and his heir.

U.S.. WORKER WINS
RICHES in REALTY
Lady Aladdin Makes Sudden
Rise from War Tasks
To Broker.

From a penniless war worker to
the owner Of a $4,000 sedan. sl3.-
600 home. and a $4,000 income for
1920. all a result of her own efforts
in the short space of two years. is
the remarkable metamorphosis Of
Agnes NJ. Sullivan. a slip of girl.
still in her twenties.
1t sounds like an Arabian Nights
tale. But, instead of open. o
Sesame" the magic word in this
case, is the name Of an exclusive
suburb in Washington. d. c.. where
real estate is spelled in capital let
tiers and subdivisions develop over
night.
When in the summer of 1918.
Agnes Sullivan faced a thirty day
vacation on annual leave-but not
much else-from her duties in the
Adjutant Generals office. she de-
cided there was nothing to do but
sell her Liberty bonds. The market
quotations were low. SO rather than
sacrifice them. she determined to
invest them in something which
could be turned into money quickly
and at a profit.
Her first thought was real estate,
for her mother had been a success
full real estate operator in New
York City for years. She started
on the rounds Of the offices. but
met with rebuffs everywhere. They
fairly hooted at the idea of anyone
attempting to buy real estate in
the nations capital with only two
800 Liberty bonds.
Couldn't she help sell, and earn
something to apply on a payment"
was met by Have you a carr "A
brokers license?"
She hadn't.
Finally, when almost discouraged
she found one man who, after hear
ing her story. was willing to allow
her to work with some of his brok-
ers on a commission basis in the
sale Of lots in a new subdivision.
He accepted her bonds at face
value as the first payment on a lot,
and then she started out to sell.
She found prospects: the men did
the selling. Determination and
self-conndence soon were rewarded.
Commissions began TO accumulate.
She resold her own lot at a profit
and invested the proceeds In four
and a half other lots. which were
also resold in a short time.
At the expiration of her annual
leave she found she had $4,000 IN
the bank, more than she had earned
in year in the War Departme MT
So she went back and resigned her
position. and decided to become a
real estate broker instead Of mere
ly assisting. Her eggs we're all in
one basket now. but she had conf
dence and enthusiasm.
Soon she was able to purchase a
car. and the brokers' license was
simple matter. so she sold to her
own prospects. Her success was
phenomenal. Sales exceeded those
of more experienced agents, and
she was soon promoted to be held
Of the sales force. She built a s13,-
600 home in the suburbs and spent
$4,000 in furnishing II. After show
ing her prospects over the subdi-
vision, she takes them to her own
home and talks business there-a
psychological subtlety that has an
astounding effect. At least IT had
the effect of creating a $4,000 in
come tax report for 1920!
