SCARCITY OF MEN
IN WASHINGTON CITY
HOSTESSES PAY SIS TO $50 FOR
LISTS OF ELIGIBLES TO BE
INVITED TO FUNCTIONS.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The "wo-
man surplus" in the national capital
has reached an acute stage. So scarce
are available men that lists at SIS to
$50 each of young men who are not
burdcned with wives are finding a
lively sale among distracted mothers
OF manageable daughters in smart
society.
These "eligibles," whose names are
purchased in bulk by Washington
hostesses, are invited to coming out
parties and other affairs where the
need for men is desperate. They need
not necessarily be scions of wealthy
families. Many of them are just pre-
sentable young fellows who possess
evening clothes, and their calling may
be no higher than a poorly paid clerk
ship in some government office.
Some Are Elevator Boys.
Indeed, elevator boys have beer
known to get into Washington socie-
ty through the medium of these lists
They run elevators in the day time

GEORGIAGRAPHS

Georgia increased her tobacco
acreage last year from 1000 to
$4,000.
Georgia sent the first vessel
that ever crossed the ocean under
steam power, the Savannah, which
sailed from Savannah on MAY 20,
1919, and touched at Liverpool
June 10th of the same year, going
thence to Russian ports.
Georgia has county named for
the only president of the Con-
federacy and one for the vice
president of the Confederacy.
Georgia's twelve electric trolley
lines had 1913 employees injured in
accidents in the last officially re-
ported year.
Georgia's pecan trees in 1923
yielded their owners nearly S.
600, 000-the total for the season,
not yet over as to sales, being
estimated to realize fully $4,000,
900.
Georgia granite quarried the
past year amounted to more than
$1,000,000 in value.
Georgia gave to the world Joel
Chandler Harris, who preserved
the folklore OF the southern ne
groes-his literary work being
recognized over all the English

The Drinking, Smoking,
Petting Girls Disrupting
College Life of Today
School President Bewails Conditions
When Best Daughters of the
Land Become Amazons.

NEW YORK.-An army of "hard
drinking, cigaret putting, fast living
amazons," such as the world never be-
fore has known, has invaded the col
lege campus of today, DR.. Charles J.
Smith, president of Roanoke College
at Salem, Va, declared in New York
City during an address before the Ma
tional Lutheran Educational Confer
ence.
Drinking, dancing and social inn
purity, he charged, have disrupted col
1ege social life, and even have extended
to theological seminaries.
"The modern dance" he said, IF not
bad of itself, is conducted in bad
setting. 1t can be above reproach, but
it is not.
What can we do when daughters
of the so-cal1ed best people come out
scanti1y attired in clothing but abun-
dainty in paint; carry bottle of lq-
uor; dance a voluptuously as possible;
call for frequent intermissions to
quench their thirst, to smoke cigar
cites, or to engage in violent petting
parties?"

and take college courses at night, and
it is said that many of them enroll
for university courses merely for the
social advantage of being called a col
lege student. The students cut classes
whenever they happen to have date
with a debutante.
incidentally, the rise of these ordi-
nary young men to places in society
has had painful results for the thous-
ands of poor girl clerks in the govern
nent employ. With debutantes dang
ling the allurements of their own cars,
their own check books and the free
entertainment of their friends before
the young men the poor girl clerks
find themselves hopelessly out of the
running. There are 10000 surplus wo-
men in Washington which accounts
for the keenness OF the contest.
Easy to Get in.
OF course, it is the newcomer in
Washington who finds the eligible
lists of greatest value, although some
of the older residents use them too
The newcomer buys not only lists OF
eligible young men, but frequently
lists of women whom she may invite
to her affairs.
DO people who are really promi-
nent socially go to the homes of peo-
pie whom they have never met, mere
" because they receive an invitation?'
is the amazed query Of residents OF
other cities where society is more eX-
elusive. Apparently the answer is in
the affirmative, for the social bureau
has become a thriving business here
All of which may go to prove the
oft-repeated statement that it is easy
to get into capital society and that
capital society is only a joke" any
how

County Officials Must at Once Deter
mine Truth or Falsity of
Unsavory Rumors!
(EDIToRIAL)

a GAIN the ugly story crops up of assessments
being levied upon employees of the county
auditors Office for purposes other than political
expenses.
It's a story that has been brought up repeated
ly-a story that became so widespread few
months ago that the county prosecutor was
asked to take action on it.
The Star doesn't know whether the story is
true or false. 1t hopes that there is no truth
in it.
County Auditor Ferguson says there is moth
ing to it.
But letter to the county commissioners, pur-
porting to come from Ferguson's employees, in
sists that the tribute system is rgidly enforced
81 a week from the men and so cents week
from the women employes-and that failure to
pay means loss of job.
The letter was unsigned, the writers maintain
ing that making public their names would lose
them their jobs
County Prosecutor Douglas says there is moth
ing in the law to prevent county official from
levying such assessments from his employees if
he sees fit
Judge Everett Smith, in charge of the grand
jury, is willing to have that body reconvened,
but fears it will be unable to do anything.
The Star believes it is up to the board of coun-
ty commissioners, as the nominal head OF our
county government to make rigid investiga-
ton to determine the truth or falsity of these
charges.
If true, the situation is one that righteous pub
lie indignation would promptly take care of.
If false, it is owing to the man against whom
the charges have been brought that the public
be informed.
Commissioners hesitate. wondering whether such an
investigation is within their province.
II murder had been committed. they would not delay.
WILL would find a way! The present situation shocks
public sensibtes almost much. II undermines
good government. locally. in the way the abuses
disclosed By senate committees thwart national eff
cheney.
IFS I'D TO the county commissioners TO act and TO
ACT NOW, Determine, by what means you WILL the
truth or falsty of these unsavory rumors
After that you can safely leave it in the pub
lies hands!
