upon the schooiroom as temporary haven be-

careers for themselves. They seek place ito

The District secure teachers who will
meet the standards it has set by increasing sal

sadly lacking in schoo! circles hereabouts. But it
is very essential sometimes. 1t is rather difficult
to run good schools without plentiful supply.

teachers. All it has to do is lower the standards.

THE District of Columbia can get exactly the
i sort OF school teachers it can pay for. 1t
is foolish to set $1,000 a year standard and ex-
pect $1,000 year folks to measure up. Good
school teachers usually can get jobs which viii
pay them about what they are worth. 1t only is
the result of accident when skilled men or women
can be found for positions the remuneration OF
which is below their expectations and abilities
Washington, has been shown often by
statistical tables, is not generous with its
teaching personnel The National Capital docs not
stand the top of the list-in fact it hardly
escapes being at the bottom. Consequently teach
ers who meet the standards required else
where not apt to stay here-un,ess they have
temporary personal reasons for remaining in the
District.

number to pick from. He does not expect all OF

About One-Man Cars.

To the Editor. The washinrton Herald:
without a doubt the one-man cars
which are operated in this. the most
beautiful city in the country. are
a disgrace. The one-man cars are
unkempt and some OF the men who.
operate them act as IL they did not
care il you rode on them or not.
They remind me very much OF
story 1 once heard told by a clever
young lawyer about a woman who
was disliked in the town in which
she lived. and after many years
spent in gossiping. thereby making
her neighbors feel always uncom-
Portable. she died. Her name was
Mary Ann. They buried her in the
little churchyard down the roa1
and there was a monument put over
her, and on IL was written: Here
lies the body of Mary Ann. safe in
the arms of Abraham" A neign-
bor who knew her well happened
to be passing her grave one day
and read on the stone. Here lies
the body of Mary Ann. safe in the
arms of Abraham" He looked at
it again and read il this time. say
ing aloud: 1T may be all righ'
for Mary Ann. but it's tough on
A braham."
And SO Il is with the 'Tooner-
villes = one-man cars which move
about the city like snsils: il may be
all right for the owners Of these cars
to sit back in their easy chairs and
suck cigarettes and shout The pub
lie be damned" but it's tough on the
good people Of Washington who are
compelled to ride to and from their
work on these slow moving. one
man cars. who possibly cannot
AFFORD to buy a Packard or even
Henry. The government should not
allow cars to run in the District
unless there is a motorman and a
conductor on every one of them.
thereby giving the people better
and quicker service.

PICTURESQUE Hubble e-Bubble Row,
east of Madison Square, is filled
these cool evenings with the Syrian
coffee slippers who are intensely in
terested in the new from the Near
East. They eat their Kibeh Maho
and drink their coffee and listen to
the endless chatter, of their coun-
trymen. Eemal Is their hero. There
are more than nifty Syrian cafes in
the quarter. Some are rather pre-
tentious, but most of them are
chicken-coop size with small mar
ble-top tables and very dim lights
The Syrian rarely fuses with the
races about him. He clings to his
own. The rug merchants. the statue
sellers. and cigarette makers are the
most clannish people in the me-
tropolis. Some of them are rich and
have fine homes. but they scarcely
ever go to the big ornate American
cafes. They prefer the dingy places
of their own people.
