SCHOOL HARDNESS

Western Breeze Intimates
That Street Cars Are
Not to Blame.

Hardness. a serious problem at West

eliminated entirely if the schools civic
association has its way. Through
committee composed of Roger O'ronnel.
jr., and Harry S. Jung. the association
is investigating the street car service
and other transportation facilities 10
determine if they are adequate.
Students late last week because oi
write their names on slip of paper ana
state how long they waited for the car.
a canvass of students also was taken
to ascertain how many would patroniZe
a bus line to the school via the = Street
bridge.
,As a matter of fact. nobody should
he DELAYED by the street cars, Tor II mas
been found by observation that the
service is even better than many ad-
r,it,'' says the current issue OF the
Western Breeze. the official organ OF
the school. 1.-The reason why many are
tardy is that they wait for their friends
or for through car instead OF taxing
the first car that comes along. An
other cause fo- tariineSs IS that many
wait for cars at Wisconsin avenue, when
1T would be much quicker to walk up
the hill to school
1T is hoped that the school will CO.
operate with the civic association. at
least to the extent of endeavorinS to
early, leaving home promptly and TAX
ing the frs; car. If such reform is ef-
fected, the association will know to what
extent the utility service is responsible
for the tardineSs here and be able to
adjust conditions accordingly

Senator Ball Promises Early At.

Recommendations Of a number OF
citizens associations for legislation
for the District have been received
by Senator Ball, chairman of the
District committee. and he has re-
piled that he will call the matters
contained therein to the attention Of
his committee.
The Park View Citizens Associa-
tlon has transmitted to Senator Ball
a resolution asking an investigation
of the laws affecting the Juvenile
Court. the board of children's guar
dians. the board of charities and
governing boards of all children's
homes and child-caring institutions
edying a situation which the citizens
| association contends exists here. The
| resolution declares that. through
conflicting laws and lack OF CO.
ordination and cooperation, "unsat-
isfactory and deplOrable conditions"
exist in the District with relation to
i charities and child welfare work in
the District.
The North Capitol and lexington
Citizens Association has transmitted
| to Senator Ball resolutions favoring
an amendment Of the law so that fed

| in the District, and also resolutions
proposing increased appropriations
| for the public schools. Congress is
| urged particularly to purchase a site

Conditions on Rhode Is

lighted condition of Rhode Island ave-

cidents on that thoroughfare through
lack Of proper lighting. the Rhode
Island Avenue Citizens Association.
in its monthly magazine. Neighbor-
hood News. says safety week will

ton says. be followed by safety

consideration is properly lighted

Rhode Island avenue northeast"
the magazine continues is ssrik-
ing example of the highways of the
District which are SO poorly lighted
as to constitute a menace at night.
This thoroughfare has but a single
alternate trolley poles in the middle
of the street. The lamps give but a
feeble light. and there are many
treacherous shadows. The danger is
increased to a great degree by the oc-
cupation of a considerable portion of
the street by railroad tracks on
which are operated rapidly moving
electric cars"
Proper lighting of Rhode Island
avenue, for which the association has
striven for years. the magazine says.
gers to traffic. both vehicular and pc
destrian. and a major public interest
will be served by substituting for the
present illumination a satisfactory
system. The association will meet in
the Sherwood Presbyterian Church
Wednesday night and will consider
street lighting at that time.
