President-EleCt of Takoma
Park Association Submits
Problem for Solution.

Shall residence in the District of Co
lumbia be requisite to membership in
the Takoma Park Citizens Association
is one of tn" principal matters to he de
Cided at the next meeting of the assoc
citation. to be held tomorrow night AT
s O'Clock in the Takoma Public library,
Fifth and Cedar streets.
This question has been brought to the
attention of the members of the organi-
cation in statement just issued hy
President Guy Clinton. who with the
other newly elected officers is to be in
stalled at this meeting
CIinton's Statement.
Fresideni Clinton. in his statement.
says:
AT the last meeting resolution was
adopted instructing the incoming adj
miniStratiou to appoint a committee on
revision of constitution. shall be
ready to announce this commItttr as
soon AS | have been installed. However.
in view of the interest shown i'm quail
ftcations for membership. I think it
highly desirable that the association
should give this committee definite in
struCtions at the next meeting on this
point. A number of the most active
members from the Maryland side have
agreed to refrain from voting on this
question. and | take this opportunity of
requesting all members from the Mary
land side to refrain from voting on this
one issue in order that the decision may
be made entirely by members resident
in the District of Columbia.
Il am taking this step because / am
convinced that the work of the associa-
ton is of more vital interest to District
residents than to Maryland residents
This is due primarily to the difference
in rights of suffrage. The Maryland
residents have other methods of eX-
pressing preferences on matters of COM
munity interest. Residents of the Dis
trict of Columbia are dependent almost
wholly on this association. In the past
there has been helpful spirit of CO.
operation between the two sides. and
this has no doubt made the association
stronger in achievement. However. if
ii appears that the interests of the two
sides have now become hopeless!y
divergent, the voice of the association
should he the unhampered expression of
the District residents.
Two Reside in Maryland
only two of the newly elected officers
of the association are residents of
Maryland. and | am authorized to speak
for both in saying that we are ready to
give way to successors from the District
of Columbia if the members on that side
make known that it is their preference
to control the affairs of the association.
1t is hoped that every member resident
in the District of Columbia will be pres
ent at this meeting"
The two officers referred to in the
statement are President Guy Clinton
and Chester c. Waters. first vice presi-
dent, both of whom We're elected at the
November meeting of the association.
The other officers elected at that time
are all residents of the District.

Gain Beauty

As girl 1 multiplied my beauty
until it brought me worldwide fame,
After 40 years in a stage career I
have kept that beauty To the thou
sands who see me daily I look like a
girl of 10.
That is due to cultivation and TO
scientific care. Not to ordinary
beauty helps. 1 have spent wears
and fortunes to secure the utmost
science offers.
Now 1 have had those helps COM
bined so a dozen are applied at once.
And | am placing them at every
woman's call
One is super-cream. 1t is sup
piled by all druggists and toilet
counters as Edna Wallace Hopper's
Youth Cream.
1t is far more than a cream. 1t
contains products of both lemon and
strawberry. Also all the best that
modern experts know how to foster.
soften, feed and protect the skin. All
in one application. 7 cannot believe
that there exists another beauty helm
to compare.
My Youth Cream comes in two
types-cold cream and vanishing
They contain the same important in
gradients. I use the cold cream as
a night cream, the vanishing in the
day. Never is my face one hour with
out it. The result is a complexion
for 40 years admired.
l wish ] knew how to induce all
girls and women to adopt this super
cream 1t means so much to them.
l will gladly send you some to try if
you will mail this coupon. Please do
that if you wish to know how much
a cream can do.

(. P. Keith Of Boston Tells How
 It May Be Done

z. P. Keith of Boston, speaking at a meeting of the Lions club held in Odd Fellows hall last evening, on 'The Boy of the Community" stated that according to figures taken from tests it costs s1,000 to educate boy until Inc reaches the producing age and in case that boy commits crime 1t costs 1000 to arrest, convict and maintain him in a reformatory. Con tinuing, Mir. Keith said that it is esti- mated that out of every 1000 boys, 64 per cent are dishonest to certain degree. This figure was taken from 1000 boys of the underprivileged class, which constitutes 66 per cent of the total boy population.
 The speaker said that those who are interested in the boy problem have divided the boy population into three divisions; l, the rich boy; ?, the privileged boy; 3, the underprivileged boy. The rich boy is one who is born with a silver spoon in his mouth" He comes of wealthy parents and is so situated that any number of oppor- tunities are open to him. This class constitutes per cent of the total boy population. The privileged class of boys is that class which is born of

In his next go Leonard jared the dopsters when he defeated Al Shubert in HolyoEe. That battle is one that will be remembered in the paper city for many moons. Both men sluggcd from the first bell to the last and Leonard had the veteran Shubert on queer street at several points during tho fight. The fight Thursday night should be a slugfest from beginning to end and both Leonard and Pallso have declared their intentions of bee ing the man with his right hand in tho air at the end Of the go.
 Besides the main fight Matchmaker Hugh Rorty has made up good card of preliminarics. McCauliffe will prob. ably be the third man in the ring.

A year ago the most talked of re- cruit in the major leagues was Cedric Durst of the St. Louis Browns. Com ing to the club as an outfielder, he was touted the best prospect of the year.
 Then came the break that probably had much to do with Bursts failure to deliver. When it was apparent that George Sisler would not be able to play first. Durst was delegated to fill the shoes of the game's greatest play CT.
 It was too big a task for the re- cruit. In the first dozen games he made only one hit, a home run.
 Now he goes to the minors, being one of the players recently traded to Los Angeles of the Coast league.

parents who may be said to be com. fortable. These boys may avail them selves of college education by hard work and are able to take advantage of many opportunities that the so- called rich boy is able to have. The third class, and the most important one, is the underprivileged boy, and this class constitute G6 per cent of the boy population of a community. Mr. Keith said that it is estimated that 92 per cent of the boys who have occasion to come before the juvenile courts are boys of this class. He urged the members of the club to do all they can for boys of this class, and told them that every man, many times unknown to himself, is an ideal for some boy. The boy, he said, will fol- low the path of the man and not the path that is pointed out to him to follow
 The speaker said that he wished to compliment the city of New Britain on the splendid Boys club which is in this city. He said that q Boys club is a powerful factor in the bring ing up of the boys of the under privileged class to be men worth while and creditable to a community.
