EDUCATION AND TALENT

A Young Girl from Kansas City sang the other day
for greatest musical critics New 4ork Ihey
unanimously predicted great future for her Then With
out exception advised her to the simple nome
with her parents and take the three years more OF
study necessary complete her general education before
taking up singing profession.
Here is good example of what experienced men think
of the value of education The girl could begin singing
now before she got growth finished her school
ng all probability she would reach the limits of
her knowledge strength and earning power Her chances
be better every way and her earning far high
she develops and body before she tackles her job
1t is something for greedy parents and impatient child
ren think about If it is better for child with great
talent to finish her schooling how much it must be
necessary the child who has special gift to help
the hard places give unusual promise of success.

SEALING LETTERS

The public is accustomed to suggestions about wrap
ping and addressing mail carefully, Uncle Sam makes
plea for proper sealing of letters whether they be sent
out singy in quantities.
When too much moisture is used, the gum generally
fails hold and the contents of the envelope likely
be lost On the other hand where extra paste is used
envelopes sealed very often the sticky
stuff sneared onto the rest of the envelope Then
letter sticks another and the effort to separate them
envelopes frequently addresses defaced be-
yond hope of decpherng Sometimes important letters
put into the mail without being sealed at all.
Very often Uncle Sam is blamed for the loss of vau
able documents checks when the loss is directly due to
careless sealing and the sender is the guilty party

Uncle Wiggily was going to borrow
from Mrs. Twistytail "a large iron pot

With the pot on one paw Uncle Wig

he would stop and think of the jolly

"That was pretty good jokc-mak-

And all of sudden, when the

Uncle Wiggily sat down on the

to get coal, it was learned today. The
hotel so affected is the Logan at
Iowa circle and 18th street.
The management of the Logan
stated that there has been no hot
water since Sunday. when the last Of
it's coal ran out. The pea coal in
the possession of the house will give
no heat, it was stated.
A general survey of the situation,
however, reveals that this is an out
standing instance, other places de-
claring that they have plenty OF
coal. This statement stands for ho-
tells. firms mana ging large apartment
houses and office buildings.
The Willard. Ebbitt and Ma
tional hotels are among the hostel
ries. whose managements said TO-DAY
that their guests still had plenty OF
hot water, and that the hote4s stiil
had quantities of coal in their Gel
lars.
Hard COal Scarce.
1--WE have had trouble getting hard
coal screenings" Manager Gumpert
of the New Ebbitt Hotel said today,
but soft coal is coming as usual. We
anticipate no trouble.
Gas is used at the Southern build
ing for heating water during the
summer. the management said. and
SO the big plant is not called upon to
use what coal it has stored. The
Munsey and other large buildings
said they had several weeks supply
of coal on hand, and anticipated no
trouble"
The Norfolk and Washington
Steamboat Company today repudiat-
ed the suggestion that lack of coal
might cause them to cut down on the
trips between this city and Norfolk.
The steamship line is having no
trouble, it was stated at the local Of

The steamer Dreamland, plying be-
tween Baltimore and Chesapeake

The manager of the steamer Dream

supply of coal was on hand for the
vessel and that the steamer will not
run again until Sunday, when it usu

PROBE INVOLVES
POLICE AND GIRL
Commissioner and Superin-
tendent Seek Facts in Story
of Misconduct.

An informal investigation is being
| Maj. Sullivan, superintendent of po-
| lice, Of allegations that a high official
| of the police department used endear-
| ing terms in talking with the sixteen
year-old daughter of former police
woman who came to him for a letter
of recommendation about two months
ago.
Although the probe has been under
way for nearly week. no sworn
charges have been filed and the off,
cial has not been suspended, ii is
said.
The case was complicated yesterday
when information was brought to a
certain police official that another
young woman employed in the Dis
trict building was alleged to have had
a similar experience with the same
official.
Girl and Mother Away.
The girl connected with tire first
charges and her mother are out Of the
city and are not expected back until
the end of the week. As soon as the
hrst reports were published Commits
sioner oyster conferred with the Of
ficiai in question.
The official has entered a strong de-
NAL of the insinuations against him.
! It is understood that the Commission
er learned from him that he had
! known the girl since she was small
child and had also known her mother
; for a number of years.
He told the Commissioner the girl
came to him on two occasions for
letters of recommen ndation to obtain
employment. He gave her letter
the first time and she returned later
for another one.
Kissed on Forehead.
He is said to have told the Com
missioner the girl remarked that he
was as good as d daddy and that she
kissed him on the forehead.
The second story is said to have
been started by man in the tax Of
fee, who went to one of the subor
dinates in the police department and
|, impaired the information that
young woman in the tax office had a
similar experience.
This young woman was interviewed
at length by Commissioner oyster
yesterday and told of having talked
with the official about getting po-
sition as telephone operator in the
police department.
1t is stated. however. that she told
Commissioner oyster she had no
charges to make.

POPE Plus TO

ROME, Aug. 26.-The economic
crisis which has all Europe worried
has even penetrated into the quiet of
the vatican, according to information
in well-informed circles.
The vatican is faced with financial
difficulties. it is learned, and the pope
has ordered strenuous retrenchments.
With the inauguration of new
pontificate it is customary for the
bishops of various dioceses to make
offerings to the vatican, but these Of
ferings have been slow in reaching
Rome because many of the bishops
have preferred to bring the offerings
in person.
The late Pope Benedict was both
generous and lavish and it is reliah'"
