After little over year OF SUI

not put down the rebellion in Africa
The dictatorship was to show poll
ticians how to do it. The dictator
himself went to the battle field. but
he has been as unsuccessful as the
generals who preceded him.
Meanwhile, his repressive measures
have been bearing fruit in the shape
of ever-increasing discomfort. The
Liberals began to speak. guardedly.
months ago. Those of them who had
been exiled or had fled spoke openly.
The dictator has not been enough of
a statesman to govern the country
without mourning the hatred of
many powerful elements. SO far,
however, the throne and the army
have remained loyal to him, but his
inexperience in politics has been his
undoing. He never tried it before.
Until the revolution he was simply a
soldier. a man of noble family. who
had been honored with the position
of captain general of Barcelona.
There he engineered his military
coup, which put him in power, power
he has not known how to use.

NURSES VISIT 7,545
PATIENTS IN YEAR
City Said to Need Many More on
Staff of Society Aid
ing Public.

Thirty-two members of the staff
of the Instructive Visiting Nurses
Society made 57,322 visits to 1916
patients during the past year, Mrs.
Whitman Cross, president of the So
ciety, told the Mount Pleasant Citi-
zens' Association at meeting of the
organization held at the Johnson
Powell School last night.
Mrs. Cross explained that the
of 80 graduates, registered nurses
who answer calls in every part of
the city. She explained that the So
ciety is only 80 per cent self-sup-
porting and that it cost the organ
ization 81 cents for every visit made.
Some of the patients were able to
pay this amount and some were not.
Mrs. Cross said. She also explained
that because of the large population
in the Mount Pleasant district the
society had to sub-divide it's terri
tory there into three divisions.
The City of Washington is at the
bottom of the list of all other large
cities in the ratio of visiting nurses
to the population" declared Mrs.
Cross, who put the least number of
nurses required in Washington at
$50 to 200. A campaign for a two
year budget will be made next week.
A resolution of Endorsement and
support of the work of the Visiting
Nurses was adopted by the associa-
ton, which appropriated $50 toward
the campaign.
Besides the report of the various
committees the school situation was
considered. The association deplored
the general lack of funds for new
buildings and equipment. particular
the out-of-date text books now in
use.
Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter, of the Pub
lie School Association, declared that
the school children in the Southwest
section of the city visited the De-
partment of Agriculture and collected
paper typed on one side and were
using this as their school paper.
The raise in teachers salaries eff
fected last year was termed as the
biggest step forward in the develop
ment of the District school system in

ulation to the Commissioners, the

Al
Mary's Rock. There they had their
first view of the wonders this land
of sky has to offer.
AT their feet the silvery line of
the now almost completed Lee High
way traced it's trail up through the
beautifully tinted Blue Ridge Noun
tains; to their left the Shenandoah
Valley, great checker board of
brown and yellow farms reduced to
diminutive squares by cleared spaces
Behind stretched the great, silent
wilds of Stoney Man Mounta in-mile
after mile of towering forests, sing
ing brooks, laundering waterfalls
and bare granite peaks that pushed
high into the feecy clouds.
Name Tentatively Selected.
1t is there that the main interests
of the commissioners lie. for the park
they are to select will be forever
preserved as natural sanctuary, an
area of 1000 square miles, wherein
the Government will protect for pos
terity all that is native to the great
Southern mountains. 1t probably will
be known as the Southern Appa-
lachian National Park.
Pushing on from Mary's Rock, the
party climbed steadily until it reach
ed the peak of Stony Man Mountain
4,031 feet high, and then dropped
down several hundred feet to a ia
bleland where their camp had been
established at Skyland, beautiful
little ranch of so rustic cabins
Every modern convenience awaited
the travellers here. from hot-water
baths in white enameled tubs to din
ner served by walters in regular
"boiled-front shirts.
Bright and early tomorrow the
committee set out again. White Oak
Canyon, with it's wonderful water
falls-a series of giant cascades that
tumble $500 feet down the canyon to
Madison County-beautiful streams
chock full of trout, primeval forest
lands and lofty Hawksbill Peak, the
highest point on Stony Man, are some
of the places to be visited en- route.
Camping Later ON Trip.
The committee will return to Sky
land to spend the night, but it will
be their last here. From then on
they will camp out" for Skyland is
the only touch of civilization in this
great area. The rest of it is rugged
nature, the kind of scenery and wood
lands the Government is seeking for
the park that will not only be a
home for wild life, but also grea,
outdoor playground for the people
of the entire East.
The commissioners are making the
trip under the authority of Congress.
When the next Congress convenes in
December. it win have before it a
definite bill appTopriating millions OF
dollars for such a reservation. AT
least three sites are being seriously
considered, including this area. The
second is in Tennessee and the third
in North Carolina, both of which are
| handicapped by their inaccessability
In their report the commissioners
will indicate which of the sites they
consider best adapted to the purposes
of the proposed national park, and
their selection probably will be ac-
cepted by Congress as final. From
here the committeeman will go to
the other two outstanding areas. II
is not believed, however, that they
will consider it necessary to view
any other proposed sites, because they
do not possess all of the features
necessary in a national park.

him as one of Princeton's greatest
gridiron generals.
Princeton had everything today
Outclassing Harvard in every depart
ment of play, the Tiger showed no
resem blance to the Indifferent squad
over which Notre Dame ran rough
Shod two weeks ago. In fact, il
seemed that Princeton took leaf from
the Notre Dame book of strategy and
did to Harvard what the Hoosiers had
done to them Where the Tigers had
shown no offensive effectiveness be-
fore, they were irresistible today, a
plunging, dynamic force. Where
their defense had been spotty. it be-
came impregnahle. Where they had
shown little versatility, they uncov-
cred a dazzling assortment of plays
and the fighting spirit which had
stood alone as the teams main char
acteristic was lost in the smooth per-
lection of their play.
Harvard had nothing to cope with
the unlooked-fo power. The Grim
son. perhaps, was overconfide mt, for
it had been an almost unanimous
favorite to win, but il had no de-
Tense. no reserve force to combat this
smashing foe.
Repulse Early Attack.
a stubborn defense that held
Princeton for downs twice in the first
period. once after the Tigers had
marched 81 yards, and again after
they had plowed forward As, and
the effective punting of Jack Ham
mond were the only factors that saved
the Crimson from seeing it's goal
line crossed in that quarter. Ham
mond, kicking from behind his own goal
line again averted disaster for Har-
ward early in the second period, but
the Tiger scoring machine got under
way Immediately afterward.
The talented toe of Sammy Ewing,
substitute, who had booted the Tigers
to last minute victory over the Navy
three weeks ago. put Princeton in
front when he drop-kicked perfectly
for field goal from the 33yard line
earlp in the second period. A pen
atty and stiffening of Harvard's de-
Tense had checked a rushing attack
headed by Weekes and Williams a
moment before. This was the turn
ing point for Princet ton, whose new
backfield had just swung into action.
Slagle ran Gehrke's next kick off 43
yards to midfield, from his own Z
yard line, and the Tigers completed
93-yard march for a touchdown
when Slagle tossed a forward pass
the fourth down, after Harvard thrice
had thrown back the Tiger charges
at the line.
Mcmillan Intercepts Pass.
Soon after the opening of the third
quarter, the first of three intercepted
Harvard passes that helped Prince
tons later scoring drive, was picked
out of the air by Mcmillan, Tiger
center. Stopped short Of the goal
Ewing was called in again to try his
luck, but this time Capt. Greenough
Of Harvard blocked the effort, only
to have Hills recover for Princeton
The Tiger then proceeded to smash its
way over for another touchdown. Will
liams took the ball after series OF
rushes on 5yard slant through
tackle to go over the line.
Another Tiger drive was launched
toward the close of this quarter from
the Princeton 4-yard line, where Har-
