CITIZENS PROTEST
SHORT-TON MOVE
Claim Smaller Coal Units
Would Work Hardship
on HousehoIders.

Opposition to the suggestion that
local coal dealers abolish the long
ton of 2,24o pounds and establish
the short ton Of 1000 pounds in the
District Is growing among the cit
izens of Washington. The Mid-City
Citizens Association through Its exec
utive committee last night announced
1t Will oppose any such move. The
same stand was taken by the Pet
worth Citizens Association and the
Staunton Park Citizens Association
earlier in the week.
City association, in speaking of the
proposed reduction pointed out that
only an act of Congress can alter
the ton standard in the District.
Mr.. Driscoll said that no doubt the
coal companies would make a slig hit
reduction If the short ton was es-
tablished, but pointed out that on
the short ton the expense of delivery,
handling and storing would not be
reduced and therefore the consumers
would be the losers because of the
fact that the coal merchants would
not be able to reduce the cost OF
the short ton in proportion to the
value Of 240 pounds. which repre-.
sents the difference between the
standard now in use.
A protest will be filed with the
Commissioners and the coal dealers
association after the meeting of the
Mid City organization on Monday
night at the Thomson School.

HELD UP AND ROBBED
OF $236 PAY CHECK
Henry H. Burroughs, Instructor at
Central High School, Victim
of Armed Footpads.

Henry H. Burroughs, an fnstruc-
tor at Central High School. was held
up by two highwaymen, who relieved
him of his pay check for s236.4S,
bunch of keys inclosed in leather
and So in cash. They looked at his
gold watch, but decided not to take
it, evidently fearing it might mean
their undoing.
Mr.. Burroughs was on his way to
his home at 2O45 Park road and was
Cn Park road near 18th street, about
12:45 am, when two young white
men appeared, neither being more
than twenty-one years old and each
wearing a cap which partly con-
cealed his identity. Mr.. Burroughs
had passed another young man just
before the highwaymen appeared.
One of the footpads, displaying a
revolver, gave the usual hold up
your hands command and warned
their victim to remain quiet. Then
they proceeded to search his pock-
cts, evidently wanting nothing but
cash.
Mr. Burroughs had his keys in his
hip pocket, the leather covering
probably inducing the bandit who did
the searching to believe 1t was a
pocketbook containing money. Hav-
ing taken the keys. check and cash,
the hiEhwaymen withdrew. 1t is
thought they disappeared in the di-
rection of Rock Creek park in an
automobile supposed to have been
parked short distance from the
scene of the hold-up.

Art and Life

II detest the happy ending" says
the gifted hctioneer, who believes
he is ascending from the ruts our
dads held dear ITO my art" he
says, I'm welded, and my arts the
only stuff. and I'd rather be be-
headed than work in that sunshine
CUFF. Art demands the proper paint
ing of this weary world of ours.
where dead cats the air are tainting,
and there is a dcarth of flowers.
On a rocky road we're vending,
trading WORKOUT woes for new, and
there is no happy ending to the
story. that is true" So our novels
are despairing, full of wickedness
and woes, and the characters are
faring to disaster at the close. Yet
in life we see some stories end as
moral stories should, with the hero
deckcd in glories. and the triumph
of the good. Every day the vile
deceiver finds his schemes have gone
to wreck, every day the moral
clcaver hits the william in the neck.
And the hero. who is lending every
effort for the right, finds there is a
happy ending and fair reward in
sight. And the maiden fair is mar
ried to the man with snowy ears.
and the twain are gently carried
down the tide of golden years.
