The Turks fill their narems with fat

hope to hold the affection of an Ameri-

plain or pretty, witty or dull, perfect

Broadly speaking. however,
should say that the favorite type, of
girl is the 1925 sports model, Stream
line effect, artistically painted, self
starter, a good hill climber and ca
pable of making ninety miles an
hour on the level.
OF course, l know that thousands of
men will say that girl of this class
ia too fast for them, and that she is up
kolstered too much, and that she is
more for pleasure than for daily serv-
ice, and that her upkeep is too much
for them, anyway, and that what they
want is a good, practical, old-fashioned
girl of the type that used to be IN
vogue about the time of the Spanish
war-the sort of girl that mother was,
with no foolishness or fiummery about
her, and not so kalsomined up that you
can't see what you are getting when
you pick her out. ;!
The quiet, modest, shrinking, do
nestle girl-darling little Alice-sit-

woman. just as the classics are, his
ideal literature and grand 0era is

all on the shelf, while he turns to
the sporting page and comic strip in
the newspapers when he has a few
minutes to read. and then steps out
with the flossiest girl he knows to
listen to jazz.
Somehow our taste in people changes
to meet the new fashions just as it does
in clothes, and the characteristics that
are admirable in one generation are as
unattraetive as the garments they wore.
We can no more get up any enthu-
sisasm for the manners and person
alities of our parents and grandparents
than we can for the bustles or hoop
skirts and Prince Albert coats and peg
top trousers that they wore. They
were all right Probably better than
ours, but old-fashioned. Not for us !!

militia, and other officers to discuss
the ACCESSIBILITY of calling IA meeting
of the local citizens committee which
worked diligently last year in an
effort to have the armory provide
for.
The citizens, committee Is composed
of delegates from the trade organiza-
ton, citizens associations and patri-
otto bodies of the District of Colum-
bia who have given their whole
hearted, support to the measure to
have provision made for an armory.
The matter eventually will be taken
up with the President, who will be
urged to ask Congress to provide this
year the funds so that an armory
can be started here. The particular
matter that will be discussed now is
as to whether it will be desirable for
the whole committee to visit the
President in the interest of the arm
ory,so whether a special committed
should be sent to present the District 8
case.
The people of the District of Co
lumbia, the taXayersJ as represented
in the committee, are willing to pay
their share to have the armory built,
and have agreed to share the funds
for the building in the same proper
lIOH lldJ the. 1unbS III INC StA Nii
expenses of the District of Columbia
are paid The bill now pending in
Congress provides for this.
In view of the fact that such an
armory would also be the headquar-
ters of the 29th Division, it is eX-
pected that the aid of the Maryland
and Virginia gressional delega-
tions in Congress will be sought. The
project also has the support of the
National Guard Association of the
United States, which passed a resolu-
ton in favor of it at its last con-
vention.
The local guard is seriously ham
pered in it's. training here because of
the present inadequate armory facili-
ties. There is q very unsatisfactory
method of storing the clothing and
equipment in a place where the fire
hazard is great. The drill hall used
by the troops can only be had at GER
tain periods, and this materially af-
fects the program for training. So
seriously hampered is the local guard
that it was necessary to diSplace the
naval reserve force from it's armory
on the waterfront in order that the
Coast Artillery might have a place,
and also to build a large metal struc-
tuIe for keeping the tractors and
mobile artillery pieces assigned to
that organization.

URGES MORE GENERAL USE
OF u. S. PARKS IN WINTER
Director Mather, in annual Report, Describes Ma
tionaI Reserves Ideal Fairgrounds filth
Exceptional Opportunities for Pastime.

Enlarged use of the national parks
of the Nation during the Winter sea-
son is urged in the annual report of
Director of the National Park Service
Mather in his annual report to the
Secretary of the Interior today.
Long popular as places in which to
spend the Summer vacation, the ma
tionEl parks, according to the report,
are now being also recognized as
ideal Fairgrounds where exceptional
opportunities exist for Winter pas
times.
Need of another national park in
the East is again emphasized by the
committee appointed by the Secre-
tary of the Interior, which is now
investigating the southern Appa-
lachians for the purpose of selecting
a typical section in these mountains
for recommendation to Congress as
a suitable national park site. "Selec-
ton of this park" Mr.. Mather says,
must be based on merit and merit
alone. It's establishment will benefit
every State in the South and East"
Few Available Areas I'm West. -
The Park Service head sees very
few" additional areas west of the
Mississippi that should be considered
lOi HdtiOldl park HetuSy Keep
ing in mind that there is necessity
OF avoiding duplication of exhibits
in the park system. There is no doubt, -
he added. that typical section of
the forest growth of northern Cali
fornia, including particularly the Sc
quota Sempervirens, should be inclad-
ed in a Redwood National Park"
while east of the Mississippi we are
going to encounter difficulties in the
creation of national parks for the
reason that practically all areas have
long been in private ownership"
Congress, he declared, will doubtless
have to make appropriations of Fed
eral funds for acquisition of land for
national park purposes If the popu-
lar demand is to be met for creation
of a few national parks in the
crowded East, where they are so
badly needed.
The report points out that the
national parks, which have long been
a source of revenue to the country,
are gradually becoming self-support-
ing, the total revenue for the year
ended June 80, 1924, being $35, 708.1S,
while the appropriation for the fiscal
year beginning July l was $30,700.
Total revenue from the national
parks and monuments last year
amounted to $663,8s6.32, which is
more than $15o,000 more than the
1923 revenue and more than a third
OF the.amount appropriated for either
the 1924 or 1925 fiscal years. When
