tne BoAl eoefse At 6art EOtotnACs
Park. But the President does not
70 up against the game there very
often. The cruller privilege at East
Potomac Park is making . fortune
for somebody. II works this way:
cruliers with your coffee In the
morning. IL you are an early golf
player, cost you three for a dina"
which a. 20 cents a dozen The
management refuses 20 sell less
than the three for q dime"
So here is what happens: Even
the castiron stomach Of q hardened
eolf player cannot stand three OF
thos> -sinksrs" at one sinking. On
Sunday morning ! watched the crul-
Isr parade 10 the counter and back.
and of the six plates one cruller
vas left on each Of four platss and
two ZACH on the remaining two
plates. Those, left on the plates
went back into the bin 70 be sold
over aaain. They had not been
touched and were clear profit Fig
urine that for an average the man
aeement is getting 8 cents apiece
for crullers. or so cents a dozen. ]
inquired what they cost wholesale
at two stores. and one man told me
IL TO IL cents q dozen. depending
upon quantity ordered. or around /
cent per cruller. The beauty about
our form Of government in the
District 10 that the golf players
cuss every time they buy crullers
and wonder how the concession WAS
obtained. but they never start any
thing.
Speaking Of sunsets the other day
reminds me Of some OF the sunrises
TO be seen around Washington. Not
10 per cent Of the people in this
town see the beauties Of IL at the
right time. Stir yourself some
morning and see the sun rise. The
old fellow does q good Job Of it
these mornings II you want to see
something special In the way Of
sunrise. get down In front OF the
Lincoln Memorial about 4:5o. when
the sun gets into the marble pile.
There sits Lincoln in such a set
ting of light as Col. Sheriff. never
will be able to give him with all
the lighting effects in the world.
The effect does not last more than
ten minutes. for Old Sol is in a
hurry and is just starting on his
long journey. But IL you want TO
see something worth while. some
thing that is worth q poem, there
is the place to 70 for the inspirs-
tion. Do not crowd up to the me-
morial-stand back about midway
of the rejecting pool. or at Seven
teenth street
Another place to see the sun rise
1 e.
St Albans. where you can get that
structure between yourself and the
sun. Nature does not overlook
much when IL comes to painting
picture. and Mrs. Marie Moore
Frrest has put on some pageants
in her day here IN Washington. but
sunrise at st. Albans will provide
you with q pageant by The Master
of all good workmen-" II Roland
Robbins could get q stage effect
like that he would have the folks
standing out in Fifteenth street. for
IL is a setting that would make
even Flo Ziegfeld jealous. The ad-
mission to this show 10 free, yet
few people except the milkman and
ths boy who delivers your Herald
see it-and they are too busy TO
enjoy IL. Turn out some morning
and get in on something good. who
wants to Join the Sunrise Club All
you need is heart and q collar.
What ssy7
While Inspector Hadley Is work
ing night and day planning TO keep
traffic moving. ! wish he would take
up his stand In Lafayette PARK
some evening as the riding cluS
make their way down past the
White House. Four to six abreast
for them at a horse walk. There
is nobody in the world but them.
and a gently footed horn OF the
auto driver asking for a little room
gets the merry ha, ha, from the
bobbed-hair girls or q rough bsWl-
ing out from men IL there are any
in the party. when they make the
little bridge. that neck in the bot
tie" on the drive over the basin

and what that does to trsfic on
a cool summer evening is a eau
tion. Col. Sheriff. should make that
one-way trafhc on evenings and
Sunday Afternoons. Here 10 q real
popular thing for you to do Colo
mel AS TO trafic, there is a terrible
howl when two or three autos get
abreast. 1t is certainly strange
what q real good American citizen
will do when he gets on q horse
and into those cute little riding
'sbritches.- He acts just as do
most Of the women who drive cleo
tries. Now. when President Hard
