complication was brought to police
here by Hans Jensen and Pedro Len

they had met a submarine frequent

conclusion could be drawn, they
said-that the undersea craft was

List of 100 Will Be Sub

To Importance.

To expedite the passage of leg
islation affecting the District, the
House District Committee will put
into operation today a plan where
by the less important measures
now pending in Congress will be
deferred while the committee con-
centrates upon those requiring i'm
mediate attention, Chairman Focht
announced last night.
When the committee meets today
the members will receive a list.
prepared in the office of the chair
man, containing a description of
the 100 bills relating to the Dis
trtct that have not been considered
The committee, afser passing upon
the relative Importance of tne dif,
ferent matters, will select from the
list bills which IL considers worthy
Of immediate attention, and these
will be put. into the hands Of the
respective subcommittee.
As quickly as the subcommittees
can report the bills back, the whole
committee will prepare them for
presentation to the House, Chair
man Focht explained.
Much time. the chairman stated.
has been lost in the past. owing
to the fact that members of the
committee were divided in their
opinion. as to the Importance of
certain matters which have been
brought up at the meetings. The
plan about to be inaugurated will
do much to eliminate this d .bate
and loss of time. the chairman
argued.
The so-called Commissioner bills
affecting parks. highways and
other programmed improvements
will receive immediate attention o,

Ths wind bod the strealn

4 brook came stealing from the ground; You scarcely saw it's silver gleam Among the herbs that hung around The borders of the winding stream, The pretty stream, the placid stream, The softly gliding, bashful stream. 4 breeze came wandering from the sky. Light as the whispers of a dream; He put tine o'erhanging grasses by, And softly stopped to kiss the stream, The pretty stream. the fiattered stream, Tho shy, yet reluctant stream. The water as the wind passed OCT, Shot upward many glancing beam. Dimp1ed and quivered more and more And tripped along, a livelier stream, The lattered stream, the simpering
 stream,
 The fond. delighted. silly stream. Away the airy wanderer flew
 To where the fields with blossoms
 teem, To sparkling springs and rivers blue, , And left alone that little stream. The fattered stream, the cheated
 stream,
 The sad, forsaken, lonely stream. The careless wind cau1e never back; He wanders yet the fields deem, But on it's melancholy track
 Complaining went that little stream. The cheated stream, the hopeless stream, The ever-murmuring, mournful stream

USCLE JED's TALK TO THE WIDE
 AWAKEs

IT our feathered friends, the birds, could talk, they would without a doubt tell any of the Wide-Awakes who might ask them, that they do not like winter with it's ice and snow. Indeed, many of the birds who are with us during the spring and summer months, dislike cold weather so much that they leave us in the fall and fly far south where the weather is warm and where they cain find plenty of grubs and worms.
 But there are number of birds who stay with us throughout the winter. This is the time of the year when the birds begin to find it hard work to get enough to eat and when the ground bs- comes frozen and the snow storms arrive t will be almost impossible for them to find food enough 10 keep alive In fac: many birds die each winter from starva- ton
 Evsry boy and girl can help the birls live through the winter by providing food for them during stormy weather ia places whero they will easily find it. Small Bird houses placed in sheIter4d spots. a hollow log, or box nailed up q treesin tho orchard, all make excel >eId feeding places for the Birds.
 During very cold weather, or severe storms, a handful or two of wheat or other small grain placed in one of these .esding places will soon be discovered By lhe hungry birds The feeding boxes 'hould have a covered top with an open SiSe and shoaid be placed so that the wind win aot blow the grain away.
 Once the birds get accustomed to find ng bfeakfast or dinner awaiting them m these feeding boxes they will make shem regular gathering places. especially when ice and snow cover the ground. making it impossible for them to reach Mother Natures supply of food.
