STRAND
Vaudeville and Pictures

Regardless of the claim In other
parts of the country that the theatri-
cal season is over and 1t is next 10
impossible to obtain good headline
features at the present moment, the
Strand Theater, as demonstrated In
the double bill of vaudeville and pic
lures presented yesterday, continues
to offer Washingtonians a lineup of
stellar attractions each week that
would do credit to any theater, at the
very height of the theatrical year.
The popular character artist. Lester
Bernard. supported by a most capable
company, is seen to decided advantage
in the headline offering on the vaude-
vile half of the bill, THE Golden
Gate" being the title of the satirical
sketch presented, as written by
Aaron Hoffman, author of Welcome
Stranger" and Friendly Enemies,
both decided hits on the legitimate
stage. The sketch is clever and un-
usual in idea, and, as might be ex-
pected, the lines are brilliant through.
out. Special scenic settings add TO
the effectiveness of the number.
AS an SAlfd
yiding honors equally with the fore
going, are THE Dancers Supreme"
The Misses Hamilton and Calvert and
Mr.. Herman, appear in this terpsichor-
can triumph, giving a series of
solo and partner dances that are ex-
tremely graceful and beautiful. Other
dances given are of the Russian ballet
type. Gorgeous drops and curtains
enhance the beauty Of the dances.
The Aerial Macks, in one of the
fastest and most thrilling trapeze acts
open the bill, followed by Tess and
Ann Carter, two real melody girls,
who can both sing and play and who
seem to enjoy their work. Beck and
Stone, two live-wire boys announced
as the Singers with Trimmings" also
caught on" with their very first
song and likewise had a hard time
getting away from the constant de-
mand for more.

that there is nothing conventional
about this picture and 1t is drama
of all sorts of society, both high and

Chamber Of Commerce Com
mittee Will Make Inspection
Trip to Pacific Coast.
BY international News Service.

NEW YORK, July 11.-Following a
preliminary meeting here IL was an
nounced that the committee OF the
Chamber Of Commerce OF the United
States to study forestry problems will
make a trip to the Pacific coast. In
its endeavor to formulate a national
forestry policy this national forestry
policy committee OF the chamber will
not confine itself to a study of prin-
ciples embodied in forestry bills be-
fore Congress, but will make an indie
pendent investigation.
Forest resources In the East and
South are reduced. TO the point where
81 per cent of the total stand OF saw
timber lies west OF the Great Plains.
and over 80 per cent in the three Pa
ciic Coast States" says a statement
by Charles Lathrop Pack, president Of
the American Forestry Association, in
commenting on the Importance OF the
trip.
"Our demand upon the latter is be-
coming heavier each year, and with It
our freight bills are becoming larger
and larger. Investigations OF a num-
Der OF large retail lumber companies
in southern Minnesota show that the
average transportation cost OF mate
rial handled by them, due primarily to
the increasing volume of Western
lumber which these companies have
had to import in order to supply the
needs OF their territory. has increased
262 per cent in the last fifteen years
Yet these companies are in a region
which only a few years ago was i'm
med iately contiguous to the greatest
lumber producing region Of the coun-
try, and which might still be a great
producer were its idle lands pro-
ductive.
"Is 1t not high time that we took
steps to cut our freight bills for
forest products and at the same
time to remove one of the serious
causes Of freight car congestion by
adopting a program which will
put our s1,0oo.000 acres of wholly
idle and 235. 900 900 acres of partially
idle lands to work."
Joseph II Defree, president of the
National Chamber, says II is not the
intention of the board of directors
of the Chamber that the committee
should only go into the bills before
Congress. but that II should endeav-
or to formulate general policies of its
own after a thorough study of the
whole forestry question. He said
there were no limitations to its
activitis in investigating and re-
porting on a national forestry policy.
The committee thereupon decided
that It would make an exhaustive
study of the subject in all its differ
cnt phases. In this connection the
committee adopted this resolution:
Resolved, That there should be
cooperation between Federal Gov
ernment and the States as well as
private timberland owners to for
ward a national forestry policy

C0N17ESS TO OPEN
HEARINGS ON LAWS
FOR u. S SHIPPING.
House Committee on Merchant
Marine Will Consider Inn
portant Bills.
BY HARRY GUsACK.

Important legislation effecting
American shipping interests viii be
taken up by Congress this week.
Beginning next Thursday, the
House Committee on Merchant Ma
rine and Fisheries will open hearings
in connection with the bill fixing load
line Regulations for American vessels.
New York shipping interests are plan
ming TO be represented at the hearings,
and a technical committee of the
American Steamship owners Associa-
ton is expected TO be present.
HEARING OPEN JULY 18.
The same committee will hold a
hearing on July 1s to investigate the
causes of the great increase in losses
through pilferage, short cargo and
breakage on American vessels. at
which time testimony will be received
from insurance companies, shippers
and steamship companies. 1t is stated
that insurance charges covering these
risks have grown TO be larger than
upon other marine dangers and con-
lean shipping in competition with for
eign lines. 1t is the hope of the com.
mftte9 and the Shipping Board TO
adopt successful preventive measures.
The Senate Committee on Inter
oceanic Canals is expected to shortly
take up the Borah bill for the ex-
emption of American vessels from
Panama Canal tolls. This measure,
which is favored by American shipping
interests, is meeting with opposition
from the railroad interests.
Hustled BILL COMING UP.
Another measure to be taken up
soon is the Hustled bill. The House
Committee on Judiciary is expected
to begin hearings shortly, at which
representatives of the shipping inter.
ests will testify In its favor. The bill
authorizes the institution OF suits in
admiralty against the Government by
ship owners when their vessels or
goods have been damaged as a result
OF collision with any Government
owned vessel, without requiring an
application TO Congress in each in
stance for the passage of special en-
abling act. 1t also authorizes suits
in regard to salvaging claims against
the Government, of which there are a
number at present, arising out OF
operation of the Shipping Boards
vessels.
OPPOSITION TO TARIFF.
Opposition to the proposed tariff
of Is cents per barrel of forty-two
gallons of fuel oil win probably be
expressed by the Shipping Board
within q next few days to the House
Committee on Ways and Means
While the board Is protesting
against increases I'm the price of fuel
oil until its contracts expire in Oc-
tober and January, respectively, II is
feared that prices will be advanced at
that time IL the tariff Is adopted.
Eighty per cent OF tfN Shipping
Boards tonnage. aggregatlng 10000
900 deadweight tons. is oil burning.

think that they were called Christians
out of respect to their leader Jesus
Christ. christian" follows the rule by
which the party and political names Of
Rome were formed: "Christians' from
Christ" as "Herodians" from "Herod,' "
and "Pompeians" form "Pompeii" and
"Caesarians" form Caesar" But cer-
tain it is that this name like the In
scription on Christ's cross, combines
the three great peoples. the Hebrew,
Greek and Roman. The fundamental
idea Is Hebrew: Christ was the
Amounted One, the Messiah. Christ"
is the Greek translation and means
"the Anointed.'' The termination,
"ian," is Latin. The word Is an ur,-
conscious prophecy Of the world-wde
spread of Christianity. And as Rev.
G.. Campbell Morgan, D. D. says: "A
Christian is Christ one. A Christ
one is one in whom Christ repeats the
human life he lived"
Now while the great revival in Anti
och was in progress certain prophets,
chief of whom was Agabus, came there
from Jerusalem, having been sent by
the church and signified that there
should come famine over all the
world which did come as they proph-
esied in the reign Of the Roman EN-
peror Claudius.
Preparation for Famine.
And Paul and Barnabas and other
leaders Of the Christians forthwith
began to make provision for the sus-
tenance of the disciples. Maybe like
Joseph Of old they had corn and wheat
and other provisions stored away In
warehouses or maybe they collected the
cold cash and depended upon that. It
is not stated.
But the wherwithall to tide over the
famine they carried to the elders In
Judea, where the famine was greatest
and when they had returned from
Jerusalem they brought with them
John, whose surname was Mark. This
young man was the son Of the sister
Of Barnabas. Her name was Mary and
it was in her house in Jerusalem. that
important meetings Of Christians were
held. This young man Mark was the
youth who was destined to write the
second Gospel and who was to have a
big part in Christianizing the world.
But more Of this young man later.
We have briefly outlined, my friends
the first great evangelistic campaign
of Christians.
Does it occur to you that the need
for them is as great if not greater now
than it was then?
