Back to the days of the Garden OF

cation of "Why Wear Clothes?" so
one Washington man contends.

mode of dress of the woman OF to-
day Is the sanest in the history OF
the race"
During his tours throughout the
country, DR.. Seton has been asking
the question, "Why wear clothesT'
and then he proceeds to defend the
scant attire of the woman of today
as the most sensible of all times. On
his arrival in Washington this week,
he brought down the wrath OF the
Mothers Congress head on account of
his views. And now enters mere
man."
ANYBODY who encourages the fe-
male in her present style of dress is

young man. II have no wings grow

"the girls show their good sense by
their present mode of dress. Clothes

posture of the body, the greater the
chance for good health

pointing to the natives OF Africa and
tropical countries. These natives, who

sionaries to wear clothes"

happiest vein, and also introducing
considerable comedy action on the
part of animals and birds These an
tics caused the orphans to roar with
laughter and clap their hands in ap-
plause. In the second reel the drama
became more serious and troubles be-
gan to accumulate for Angela, an
Italian orphan girl. portrayed by Miss
Pickfofd. The screen idol held the
rapt attention and complete sym
pathy of the audience of orphans
throughout the stirring action OF the
film, in which many vicissitudes are
thrust upon her by the fates. "The
Love Light" affords Miss Pickford an
opportunity to display her ability as
an emotional actress to a greater ex-
tent than in any other picture in
which she has appeared, and the or
phans seemed mystified over the fact
that the pretty, jolly. carefree and
merry Angela in the first reel could
so suddenly change to the struggling,
grief heroic mother. But
in the end everything ends as hap
PLY as could be expected for Angela,
and the children arose after the per-
Torrance with expressions which
showed they had thoroughly enjoyed
every minute of 1t. -.
Superintendent Preil said: 81 have
never seen our children enjoy them
selves quite so much as they did to-
day and The Love Light will long
remain as a bright spot in their
lives"
ANOTHER PARTY PLANNED.
The Washington Times and Nam
ager Beatus invited the orphans at
the Episcopal Home for Children to
attend the performance today, but
because OF illness in the institution
they were unable to accept the invi-
tation. However, the candy and fruit
provided for them by Walter Brown
ley will be sent 10 the home and
they will be invited to another or
pbans' party. in the spring.
Manager Beatus announced today
that any guardian who has half a
dozen or more orphans under his or
her care. will confer a favor upon
him by bringing the little ones to
Loew's Palace Theater. He will at
once distribute candy and fruit to
them and admit them to the showing
of THE Love Light" because all this
week sthe parentless boys and girls
of Washington are to have the free

Washington police will clean up
the city this week as far as pat

alcoholic beverage purposes are con-
cerned.
This was the promise made this
morning at Prohibition headouarters
LIST ANALYzED.
A list of the preparations ana
Iyzed and found mt for beverage pur-
poses has been prepared for Major
Harry Il. Gessford and will be sub
mitted sometime this week. with the
request that he assist In driving

District of Columbia. Is in Ohio to-
dey and Is expected here today or
tomorrow. AS soon as he arrives he
is expected to give the order to go
ahead.
1--WE are only waiting for Mr..
Stone to give the order" said one OF
the prohibition enforcement agents
today, land then we will make short
work OF the sale of these prepare
lions which have flooded the market
during the past year, and have
worked more harm than the old
time whiskey."
1t is understood that the list con.
tains about fifteen brands of drink
able medicines that have been used
very extensively in Washington and
other parts of the country.
$500 CASES A WEEK.
A compilation of records Of. the
amount of these beverages shipped
into Washington in week, shows
that about 800 cases are sold every
week by near beer saloons. fruit
stands, and grocery stores. One near
beer saloon in the business section
of Washington has a weekly standing
order for 100 cases of particular
brand, in addition TO equal sales Of
the other brands.
The lack of cooperation by Police
Court officials, 1t is said. has been
disheartening to the prohibition
agents. In many cases. the men
arrested are allowed postponement
after postponement for trials and
finally dropped last week, after
several days of Investigations on the
part of the agents a man was arrested
for selling one of these preparations.
by the drink, over the bar at thirty
cents a drink, The man was hailed
to Police Court where he was allowed
TO forfeit $40. The small fines i'm
posed on the persons arrested, the
prohibition officials say, makes the
work disheartening.
The smallness of fines makes the
business profitable, even though a
man was arrested every day. and 1t
practically makes it impossible to
stop the traffic
In order to put stop to 1t. the
prohibition officials are going to
eliminate the stuff from the market.
and then watch the wholesale deal
ers to see that no more of 1t gets
on the retailers.
1t Is estimated that there are
about fifteen men who are making
profitable business out of supplying
the trade in Washington with these
preparations.
