Rachel Crothers De-
fends the Modern Girl

MISS RACHEL CROTHERS, popu-
1Nl lar American dramatist, whose
play, Mice People" was shown at a
local theater recently, is decidedly on
the defensive side for the girl of to-
day. Although this play showed the
ridiculous lengths to which the flap
per of the extravagant social set may
go for excitement, it did not attempt
to discuss the modern girl of the
average family.
1t was Miss Crothers who an
convention that~the modern girl is
the worlds most perfect type. This
statement was made by woman who
first prepared to be a school teacher
graduating from the Illinois State
Normal School in 1892.
The modern girl" Miss Crothers
is quoted as saying, lis % per cent
more honest and decent than her
mother. just as her mother was 25
per cent more honest and decent than
the generation that preceded her.
Instead of asking yourselves what
you are going to do about the younger
generation, you might ask yourselves
what the younger generation, as repre-
sented by the girl, thinks of you. Why
put the responsibility on the girl, where
II certainly does not belong?"
Miss Crothers is the author of a
number of clever plays which have
been highly successful and in all of
which she has portrayed interesting
and individual girls as heroines.

Marguerite L. Sitgreaves,
Advertiser.

THERE is only one woman in
Il Washington who has an adver-
tising agency, and she is just a girl
in years. This successful young
woman is Marguerite L. Sitgreaves.
She was born about score or years
ago in Phillipsburg, n. J., and grew
up there, receiving an education
through the high school. Then. in
January, 1918, she was one of thou
sands from all over the country who
answered the urgent call for clerks
in the government departments dur
ing the war. She came to the sur
geon generals office of the War De-
partment as a clerk in the medical
coding work.
For two years Marguerite Sit
greaves worked in that department
and in spare time she wrote little
verses and stories, because she had
the writing urge but couldn't seem
to find the most satisfactory medium
for 1t. Then il was that a good
friend in another governmental de-
partment suggested that she study
advertising. So she took a corre-
Spondence course.
In January. 1920. an opportunity
came to try her wings at advertising
and she left the government position
and handled the advertising work of
one of the shops for women in Wash
ington.
In September 1922, she established
her own Office in the Star building
and last week, September IS, she
celebrated the first anniversary of
her own business establishment
She now has an assistant and she
emphasizes the fact that her agency
is for general advertising, including
newspaper, direct mail and magazine
advertising.
Miss Sitgreaves is a member of the
Washington Ad Club, the Soropti-
mists and the League of American
Pen Women. She has addressed the
members of various ad clubs, her
most recent address having been be-
fore the members of the Richmond
Ad Club. She has been invited to
address the members of the Ad Club
of Scranton, Pa, in the near future.
greaves. Charles Sitgreaves. was a
representative for New Jersey in the
thirty-ninth and fortieth. sessions Of
the United States Congress.
advertising is a wonderful Sci
ence," says Marguerite Sitgreaves,
'tone which is very new and still very
crude: a science which deals in col
ors, weather conditions, politics, per-
sonal needs, habits, tastes, enumera-
tions unlimited which are all within
the scope of the trained advertiser.
AN advertising man or woman
who understands the business Of his
chief is a valuable asset to that busi-
ness, some one whom the firm does
not care to lose. He brings the daily
buyers, he has the means of ready
cash and quick turnover in his brain.
The advertiser who knows the game
has no fear of being out of work.
His services are requested every
where and there is adequate compen-
sation awaiting him."

PROF. Herring LECTURES
ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Speaker Was Closely Associated
With Mrs. Eddy During Her
Lifetime.

The first of this seasons lectures
on Christian Science" was delivered
Friday evening in the First Church of
Christ, Scientist, on Columbia road,
by Prof. Herman S. Herring of Boston,
Mass, his topic being. Christian
Science: The Science of Right Liv-
ing"
Prof Herring was closely associated
with Mrs. Eddy during her lifetime,
and in the course of his lecture re-
fers to this fact as follows:
1T is an obvious fact that no one
could be sick, miserable, SHINING or
dying were 1t not for the belief in
matter. Hence, the great need of
awakening from this illusion in or
der to be freed from the false bond
age a bondage never imposed by di
vine authority for the second record
of creation is false. Mrs Eddy re-
quires the first readers in all Chris
tian Science churches and societies
to read from her textbook at each
Sunday service, her scientific state
ment of being which says, There is
no life, truth, intelligence. nor sub
stance in matter. All is infinite
Mind and It's infinite manifestation
mortal truth. matter is mortal error.
Spirit is the real and eternal; mat
ter is the unreal and temporal. Spirit
is God. and man is His image and
likeness Therefore, man is not ma
terial: he is spiritual
This is a requirement which con-
stitutes a very timely reminder. and
one which should be kept in mind al
ways. 1t should be recognized that
this scientific statement of being is
not mere theory or invention of
Mrs. Eddy's, but is a spiritual SCI
entific revelation of divine truth.
In one of my later interviews with
Mrs. Eddy, she emphasized strongly
the need of recognizing the mesneric
nature of matter and it's glamour.
This has moved me to include an
analysis of the subject in all my lee
lures, and in calling your attention
emphatically to this subject, l feel
that 1 am carrying out her wishes.
We need to see that this belief in
matter is the veil of the flesh which
hides spiritual reality, and which
must be rent before spiritual truth
can be rightly seen and spiritual
healing demonstrated"
The lecturer was introduced by
Elmer I. Baldwin, first reader of First
Church.

Girls Get Hops
In "Aeromarine

Sc A ERoMARINE" is the name OF
n the frst fying boat of all
metal hull that has ever been built
, in the United States. 1t was designed
and constructed by the Aeromarine
/ Plane and Motor Company, under the
supervision of Chief Airplane Engi-
neer p. G. Zimmerman. Now the
boat is being flown by Mr.. thinner
mann and pilot for exhibition pur-
poses at various naval stations
While in Washington, Secretary
Denby, Gen. Patrick and Admiral
Moffatt have flown in the boat and
more than $40 people employed in the
bureau of aeronautics, mostly girls,
have enjoyed little hops" in the
novel flying boat.
The full title for the ship is metal
air express. Il is made of the same
aluminium alloy as the framework of
the giant dirgible Fri. Being of
metal, Aeromarine doesn't get water
soaked as wooden hydroplanes would
become, and it also has proved
that this alloy does not cor
rode in salt water. All of the
compartments are water-tight. The
ship has a speed of 1O4 miles an
hour; a Liberty motor that consumes
sixteen gallons of gasoline an hour;
a wing spread of sixty-two feet; a
| landing speed of forty-eight miles an
hour: a cruising limit, with nine (the
ultimate number) passengers. OF
seven hours.
The aeromarine might be suggested
as an unusually easy and amiable
way of getting ones first experience
in the air. Most of the girls who
have had hops in 1t are delighted
with the smooth gliding motion, par
| ticularly when coming down to the
water. The hops given here were
very short, lasting only from ten tc
| twenty minutes each. In that space
| of time the passengers were carried
| over Alexandria and the new Masonic
memorial, circled over the war col.
lege. took short trip down the river
| itself and enjoyed a graceful glide
back to the landing point at ths
Naval Air Station. On these trips
the ship usually did not climb over
1900 feet in altitude, although she Il
| capable of making the absolute CELL
| ing of $4,000 feet with climbing
capacity of $500 feet in ten minutes
Aeromarine Is another example OF
the inevitable supremacy of meta
over wood in every type of machine
! AS IT has proved with the railroad
engine the automobile, advanced
| farming machines and steam vessels
| so it is proving in the ships of the
air that metal is the better materia
| for constructing the new models.

Navy.

Publication this week of the first
official figures of the Zeppelin rigid
airship, nearing completion in Ger
many for the United States show an
interesting comparison with the ZR-1
the Navy built at Lakehurst, n. J.
The American-built ship, designed
and constructed for military pur-
poses, is longer by twenty-four feet
than the giant aerial liner built for
passenger traffic and commercial pur-
poses. In maximum diameter the for
eign ship has the edge with her 90.7
feet, as against the 79 feet diameter
of the Navy ship, which in turn has
a height over all Of SO feet, S1s feet less
there is slight difference in favor Of
the Zeppelin with her 2,500.000 cubic
feet, as against 100000 cubic feet Of
the other.
| Driven by FIVE Mayback engines of
power of 1000 horsepower, i the rs'Ias pas
senger ship is expected to plow
through the air at a speed of eighty
miles an hour and to have a cruising
radius Of approximately 5000 miles
with sustained speed Of sixty miles
an hour.
The Navy built ship is driven by
six Packard airship engines each of
800 horsepower, total of $4,000
horsepower, giving a full speed Of
sixty miles an hour and a crushing
raQfuS Oh ABOUT o,VUU miles at q speed
of fifty miles an hour. These engines
were developed especially for the
Navy, and naval experts believe they
are superior even to the Mayback
engines of the Zeppelin, heretofore
recognized as the finest airship en-
gines made.
Constructed for entirely different
purposes, the one for military use
and the other for commercial pas
senger traffic, these two rigids are
the finest in the world. each a leader
in every way in it's separate class.
