1t was SO hot today
The shadows tainted, and the

Was motionless as any JAM

The milk weeds soured; the

Frizzled like they was on

Save Grandad's snore-which

for women in the civil service. and
give the women of Washington the
right to serve on juries. to equal

So it will not affect the District

MAKE A BIG MISTAKE.
Members OF the diplomatic corps
have made a big mistake in confining
their children's art to the drawing
room They should be more generous
with them and let them have a wide
field in which to entertain and delight
the world.
These are the children who. often,
have the greatest opportunity for
stage careers. Most of them take
dancing, singing. and elocution as
part of their general education. and
at the time they are ready to make
their debut in society many of them
are finished artists. ready for the
