Heard and Seen

The most modest author in the
world lives right here in Washington.
He works in one of the government
bureaus. at scientific task which is
far from the mixed fact and fiction of
the novelist.
For years this author has met and
talked with a certain newspaper man.
The latter has conversed with the
former by the hour about the writing
game.
The novelist always evinced great
interest in newspaper work, but
never once let on, by word or deed,
that he himself ever had written a
thing.
So the newspaper man got the shock
of his life last week when his friend
him with a copy of his latest novel.
Too dumfounded to speak. the
journalist accepted the gift. Il didn' I
know you did this sort of thing he
murmured. at last.
Yes, that's my sixth book, replied
the chemist.
You never can tell about these fell
lows in government service.
The following was related to me by
a gentleman whose reputation for
veracity is unimpeached. Maybe 1t will
throw light on the subject of auto
mobile and street car traffic, the
problems to boot.
Everybody knows the parking prob
lem is acute. Motorists are finding ii
more and more difficult to find place
TO park their cars anywhere near their
business. " the growing dema N for
automobiles keeps or. as II bids fair
TO do, the streets will be IN owing
mass OF cars after awhile, with mo-
tion the emily recourse.
The gentleman in question. who
lives two blocks from 18th street and
Park road, goes out to his garage in
the rear of his home, and brings out
his car. This is in the morning, mind
you.
He motors blithely to 18th and Park
road, parks his car. and boards a
street car for downtown.
His car reposes there until eve
ming. when the gentleman gets on
the street car. limbers up his auto
mobile and rides two blocks home!

Last week I dealt with the modern
American child.
OF course, there is an diverse to
the shield.
Rudolph just about fits the picture.
Fourteen years old. or thereabeuts. he
manifests already the qualities which
the young Lincoln had, according to
tradition.
A real boy, he nevertheless is re-
spectful at all times, quiet, determin-
ed, and a hard worker. He helps his
mother, a widow. by getting odd jobs
in the neighborhood.
To watch him throw himself into
such a job as digging up back yard
is a joy. He goes at 1t like he meant
it, turning the ground with speed and
precision, never stopping for any
monkey business.
and there Is every indication that he
will. thirty years from now he Is
going to be big success.
It is somewhat startling to discover
that nine out of ten people pay more
attention to their back than to their
front yard.
This is deduced from the activities
now going on in various neighbor-
hoods. Such raking, picking up trash.
