SUSTAINING A vFrn

E The senate vote to sustain the president's . veto of the Bursum pension measure is vel
 come evidence of q return to sanity on this question. As has been previously set forth the Bursum measure insured to bona fiFie veterans. widows of veterans and sufferers from wars previous to 1917 no added relief to that contemplated under the set of 1925.
 On the other hand. it would have added to
 the national budget an annual sum of fifty eight million dollars. very little of witch would perhaps have gone to persons desery- ing of such recognition. The pension rolls have been politically exploited to partisan advantage for great many years. The pres ident is commended for putting q stop to it.
 Even though the senate sustained the yet1 by the scanty margin of only one vote, the indi- cation is that the tide has turned There is hope that it is now definitely in the opposite
 direction.

Last night I took dinner with an actor and his wife and their several children. She had diamonds around her neck.

I do not propose to identify him further In fact, am pur poseIy drawing a herring across the trail to fool those who migSt seek to discover him. But his story is worth telling.
 Tt took me fifteen years to learn my trade said he.
 He was thirty years old before he was able to support himself. He has no had habits. his moral character is tip-tOp. his energy is unspeakable. but it took him fif- teen years to make good. During that period he was a star bOarder in big family--so large a family that one more plate on the dinner table seemed of no consequence at all; He worked at various odd jobs.

Even after l began to make good it. took me four years of hard saving to square my last bill. | owe my good friends an unpayable debt of gratitude VrouId have succeeded in the end, even with out them. for I was determined. But they made it easier for me.
 The moral of this tale isn't what you think it is. It sounds as though the tag should he, what can be done by perseverance, and cour- age when added to native ability. But the true moral isn't that at all:
 Whenever | had a few pennies to spare I used to make Grandma a little present. Even if only bunch of cheap flowers or a little picture. Thanks to Grandma my credit for board and lodging was always good.
 This was no cheap cadging for favor. He liked her. All the rest of the family loved her. too. Her word was law to them. But none of the others thought to send the old lady flowers.

When the word banquet is used now adays, it means a more or less formal din. neF, attended by a number of persons, some times running into the thousands.
 Formerly the banquet was not the dinner itself, but the dessert at the end of the din- ner. This was a special gathering. often held in room other than the one in which the dinner was served,
 The name of the meal originated from the name of the seats on which the banqueters sat. Thus in the Spanish language ban queta" means a stool. and in the Italian q ''banchetto" is q little seat (dlminutive of "banco.' bench)
 Nowadays the word dinner is freduentlx used to designate what ths past generation called bauquet

URGES OPEN WINDOW
SCHOOLS FOR HEALTH
Head Of Parent-Teachers' Appeals
for Better Ventilation in
Classroons.

Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter. head of the
Washington Parent.Teacher Associa-
tions. speaking to group Of parents
at the weekly nutrition clinic of the
Blake Open-window School yesterday,
made strong appeal for parents and
all health workers to get together IN
making an emphatic demand that sini-
for in every public school building in
the city. Attention was called by the
parent-teacher leader to the fact, as
shown in the chart of the Public
Health Service report on the Causes
Of absences in one grade of Is public
schools in Washington" that the
open-air schools had far fewer alb
sences on account OF colds or other
sickness than did the other schools.
DIR. Harry Ong. public school physi-
clan, pointed out that underweight was
not the only factor to be noted in
building the health of children. 1t
was the job of the physician to note
any physical defects and have them
corrected with the cooperation of the
parents. He stressed the need of rest
as a prime factor and urged parents
not to let their little ones go often
to the theaters or be kept up late for
any cause.
Miss Ella Harris of the American
Child Health Association spoke of
the vital Importance of parents CO.
operating with the schools in en-
abling children to form health habits.
Miss M. M. VBrien. the teacher in
charge OF the open window class, ex-
hibtted some of the clever handwork
of the pupils. Miss Mathilde Clap
ham conducted the clinic after which
the children served their guests with
buffet luncheon. The Washington

her sister ship. But 1t might hap
pen at any time. Driven far out of
her course by high winds. the air
vessels might run out OF fuel over
the ocean.
With this possibility in mind. engi-
neers of the Navy are preparing for
an experiment in refeuling a dirig-
ible airship from a surface vessel at
sea. One experiment has already
been conducted along this line. but
under ideal conditions of wind and
sea. The next step is to determine
its feasibility under adverse condi-
tions.
The Shenandoah will be used in the
experiments to be conducted shortly,
with the mother SHIP Patoka, the
mobile fuel ship for dirigibles. acting
as her mooring base. The plan, ac-
cording TO officers of the Navy Aero
nautic Bureau, contemplates mooring
of the nose Of the Shenandoah to the
tall mast of the mother ship, and
running a hose line from the tanks
of the Patoka up the mast into the
fuel tanks of the air vessel.
Difficulties in the way of carrying
out the plan are numerous. but
Navy engineers are confident they
can be surmounted. The Shenandoah h
has already been anchored to the
Patoka's mooring mast at sea, and
the Navy is sure a fuel line can be
run from the mother ship into the
gasoline tanks of the dirieible. en-
nbling her to proceed on her. way
without hindranca In case the fuel
ing tests are successful, the cruis-
ing radius of such ships as the Shen-
andoah will be greatly increased as
well as the safety factor in the event
of accident.
Plans are being worked out, &C
