ment' which we have here--the
Ford"
MIR. Heron explains that :he
Junior American Red Cross know
ing Of his work at Tech along
scientific lines, asked II he would
not organize and conduct a vo.
cational school at Tiraba. Albania,
the first in the entire little nation.
Mr.. Heron accepted lnl began a
months trip to the secluded little
country. His route lay through
Paris, Switzerland and north Italy,
from whence he sailed the length
of the Adriatic Sea to his desiina-
ton.
The roads IN Albania, Of which
there are very few, are exceedingly
poor. according to Mr.. Heron's
vivid description of the country.
Travelling is done for the most part
in OK or donkey carts. There are
few modern oonveyances, with the
exception of the Ford, which, he
explained, can be used to a great
advantage.
when l arrived" continued Mr..
Heron. "the boys from all over the
country. who were tc te my
charges, were all assembled. had
to find a place for the machinery
and equipment. and put the school
in motion"
THE boys were studious. They
spent SO much time in study" said
Mr.. Heron, that we had to actually
make them take recreation. Our
courses included English. mathe-
matics. mechanics and elementory
physics"
The inhabitants are eighty per
cent Mohammedans, tho women
wearing the ancient heavy veil.
Mr.. Heron concluded by saying
that he was in Albania for six
months, during which time there
were two changes Of government.
Revolutions were bloody and dan
gerous. but they furnished the
only diversion that the country
could offer.
The Albanians are In need Of
American aid and deserve all Of
the help that we can. offer.

chairs to hear a number of wonder
full speeches, with Mr.. Kelley as
toastmaster. Mr.. Davis spoke OF
a question OF great Importance,
that Of compulsory athletic train
ing, with which all Of the boys
heartily agreed. Mr.. King repre-
sented the alumni and congratulat-
ed the school and the boys on their
showing the past year. After short
speeches by Mrs. Outwater. Miss
Sanderlin, Captain Dennis, Manag-
er DuFief and Captain McGarraghy
we adjourned to the gymnasium,
where everybody enjoyed an hour
or two OF dancing.
The boys went home knowing
that the school had shown it's ap-
probation Of their work during the
year, and thanking the school and

Plan Exercises

The Technical Graduation Ex-

will take place In the Auditorium
Of the Central High School on the
evening Of Tuesday. June twen-
tieth. Although no definite ar.
rangements for the ceremony have
az yet been made, the speakers
and program will be announced
shortly.
The Committee hopes to secure
a prominent speaker to address
the graduates, and, in all proba-
bility, this will be fulfilled.
The valedictorianship has not
been awarded, but the race has
been narrowed down to a small
entry. A competitive examina-
ton will, no doubt, decide what
general averages cannot.

That "Margie" is popular with
her schoolmates Is an indis-
putable fact. From the day in
September Of last year when
she returned from triumphant
season at Atlantic City and en-
rolled at Western, she has been
continually surrounded by a
group Of enthusiastic admirers and
Is still receiving congratulations
on her triumphs in Washington
and throughout the United
States.
Miss German has already de-
cided on the career she will
follow when she has finished
school, having decided to accept
one of the myriad Of offers Of
movie contracts she has re-
ceived and enter the cinema field.
Miss German is well fitted for
this work since she is a talented
actress and her art Is much in
demand by amateur troupes in
the District.
KNITS AT SCHOOLS.
Her industrious character is
demonstrated by the fact that
Miss German Is at present
engaged in knitting a sweater
and carries her needles and wool
to her classes with her and
knits during spare moments. As
far as the. eye Of one ignorant
Of matters relating to the sewing
circle can determine, Miss Cor
mans work Is not that of a
novice and II is certain that she
is not a slow worker. though
whether the progress she IL
making on her work In due to the
class time she devotes to
knitting or to her speed is .
mattet Of conjecture.
To tell the truth. the most
beautiful girl in America is not
unlike other girls Of her age IN
her activities. character. and
mannerisms. She talks. acts. and
giggles, as much and in the same
manner an the several hundred
other girls of Western High
School.

prepared to give him had died
away during dinner-only the

had changed from its first in
tensity to an envy that brought
a sob into her throat. She
envied him the light that shone
in the Arabs dark eyes, she
envied him the intonation OF the
soft slow voice she loved. Her
eyes turned to the Sheik. He
was leaning back with his hands
clasped behind his head, talking
with a. cigarette between his
teeth. His attitude towards his
European friend was that Of an

accent that was noticeable when

from Saint Hubert provoked only
a laugh and a gesture Of ac-
