CHILDREN MEET
D. c. SCHOOL
BOARD
Take Part in Plea for Better
Classrooms in Manor
Park Vicinity

If there is doubt in the mind Of
anyone that members of the Board
Of Education nave actually laid eyes
on the boys and girls who are
educated in the schools over which
they preside. let it be dispelled at
once.
The Manor Park Citizens Associa.
ton saw to that yesterday after
noon at a special board meeting
well attended by members of that
body.
Four children who ranged in age
from five to ten years were brought
tC the meeting and formally intro
duced to the board 10 let that body
visualize the pupils for whom
Manor Park residents were plead
ing to get more adequate class
room accommodations.
The children were marshalled into
the board room, and, given chairs
in the front row Of seats reserved
for taxpayers.
Ernest H. Pullman, of the Manor
Park Association, made the intro.
auctions. AS the name of each
child was called, he or she stood
up, made a bow tU the board, and
resumed his or her seats.
Mothers of the Manor Park
children also were introduced to
the board at the ''get-together'
soiree which lent diversion to the
more usual prosaic business session.

COURT ORDERS FORFEIT
OF 2 PENNA. BREWERIES

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. IL
Judge Dickinson in the United
States district court ordered the
confiscation and forfeiture of two
more brewing plants, those of the
Weisbrod & Hess Brewing Co.,
frankfort avenue and Adams
street, and the John Hohenadel
Brewing Company, Falls of Schuyl-
kill, for the alleged manufacture
and sale of high-powered beer.
In the Weisbrod & Hess case,
Judge Dickinson held that brew
cries are responsible for "anonym.
Gus" trucks, loaded with high
powered beer which are found on
their premises, or coming out of
their loading plants. and If the de-
Tense is that the beer was on the
truck when it entered the property,
the brewery must produce positive
evidence of this fact, otherwise the
court will rule the inference of guilt
will be drawn against the company.

|SF|NEST Of
MEETING
lemons Bon Appears to Have
Event at His Mercy.
Distance Races
By CI.ELAND c. McDEvITT.

Well filled fields are the order
of the Afternoon for the third days
racing at Marlboro and by far the
best card of the meeting is offered.
Owing to the danger of crowding
at the turns, the fields are neces-
sarily limited to eight horses AMI
this number is named for three Of
the events today, while there are
seven in three more and six in the
initial contest.
lemons Bon, an aged platter who
was knocked down at a handsome
price as a youngster and Of whom
much was expected at one time, APP
pears to have the feature race at
his mercy. This one has hung up
one handy victory at Marlboro. but
was taken into camp yesterday by
Silks and Satins.
Principal opposition to lemons
Bon is likely to come from BodanZ-
ky and Shadowdale. Rekab, an
other starter in the feature race,
rarely fails to earn oats in Mary
land, and is also a possibility, while
De Bonero has yet to show his
stuff in this section. The others
do not call for much.
Despite the large fields, it looks
as IL the favorites viii score in the
majority of the events, although
there are few distinct standouts.
1t is the distance races which
win the approval of the racing
fans, and two of these are down
for decision today.
Brass Band, on his Canadian
form, and the race which he ran
in back of Ashland the opening day,
looks as if he should account for
the sixth event, but ConceaPs vic.
tory at the short route on Tuesday
was so easy and the distance breed
ing of this one, is so pronounced
that it appears the latter's number
is more likely to be hung out.
Jockeys Eddie Hileman and Dave
Stirling are easily the riding stars
of the meeting thus far, and any.
thing on which these boys have the
leg up, is receiving serious con.
sideration.

SYNTHETIC FACE Is DUE
TO BAD BOOTLEG LIQUOR

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 11--With
the advent of prohibition and the
poor quality of liquor now, being
consumed, the synthetic face" has
made it's appearance according to
the beauty specialists here in at
tendance at the convention of the
National Hairdressers' Association.
The synthetic countenance is
easily distinguished, the face tx
perts say. The facial muscles sag
under the eyes and jaw, there is
a peculiar blush tint to the white
of the eyes and the hair loses its
luster and become prematurely gray.
This<class Of patrons is becoming
so numerous throughout the coun-
try that the beauty specialists have
been making special study of arti-
fetal means of repairing the dam
age wrought by bootleg liquor and

Costs Montgomery County
Youth Dear

ROCKVILLE. Md. Sept. H.
When Summers Daily. pleading
guilty in the police court here to
a charge of operating an automo.
bile while under the influence Of
liquor. declared that he was very
much "out Of luck. Judge Samuel
Riggs. who was presiding, and ap-
parently every one else in the
courtroom. agreed with him. but
the young fellow, nevertheless, had
to pay the minimum fine of 800
and costs.
Daily explained that until the
day of his arrest he had not tasted
intoxicating liquor for eleven years
and that all he took on the day
in question was "a little hard cider
and a swallow of corn whiskey."
In view Of his long abstinence and
the fact that the officer who made
the arrest did not consider him
very drunk" Judge Riggs let him
off as easy as the law would al
low. Never again." said the I'M
lucky youth as he left the court
room.
A license has been issued here
for the marriage of Paul d. Weeks,
twenty-six, and Miss Katie Mushin-
sky. twenty-one. both of Washing
ton.
The fines and costs collected in
the police court here during the
month of July aggregated $2,193.30,
according to the report Judge
Samuel Riggs has just submitted
to the county commissioners. OF
this amount. all but $3.50, which
represents fines in motor vehicle
cases and goes to the State motor
vehicle commissioner. is credited to
the county police fund.
Montgomery county Democrats
are not going to let anything 20
by default so far as their candidates
at the November election are con-
cerned, so Berry E. Clark, of the
State central committee. stated here
today. Within the very near flu
ture, he said, Davis, Bryan and
Winebrenner Club would be organ
lied at Rockville. and that similar
would be formed at an
early date in various parts of the
county. These clubs, so Mr.. Clark
stated, will look after registration
and the getting out of the vote on
election day. He said the county
will give a good account of itself
from a Democratic standpoint on
November 4.
The Republicans have not yet
gotten started, either, but leading
members of that party declare that
the ball will be started rolling
within the very near future and a
vigorous campaign waged right up
to election day.

warden, has appointed Henry
