One of Countries Largest Win
dow Shade Manufacturer Will
Help Times Readers

One of the most important ques-
tons in housekeeping is the FUR
nishing and upkeep of window
shades because of their necessity to
beauty and comfort. Realizing this
fact. The Times has secured the
services of one of the best shade
manufacturers in the United States
to give to the readers full infor-
nation concerning how and when
to use certain shades. W. Stokes
Summons, who has for the past
twenty-five years been engaged IN
shade manufacturing in Washing
ton, will weekly write an article
to be published in the Real Estate
section of The Times. Mr.. sam
mons is we'll known to Washing
tonians. He entered business first
at go E street northwest, later
moved to $40 Fifteenth street north
west, then to Twelfth and III streets
northwest, and is now located at
$50 Thirteenth street northwest. he
was instructed in shade manufac-
turing by w. H. Spelhouse, VINO
at that time was the best known
manufacturer in the East. Mr.
Summons enjoys dist1ncJlon Oh
having done the largest retail shade
business in the United States for
the past five years. He has IN
this time shaded over 95 per cent
of all new buildings in Washington,
and was awarded the largest shade
contract ever issued. This contract
was to furnish 1850 shades for the
Government buildings located at
Sixth and B streets northwest. In
discussing window shades Mr.. Sam
mons states that people are real
izing now more than ever the neces.
sity of buying good material and OF
making the window shades harmon
ize, both exterior and interior. MT.
Sammons states that he will write
on many subjects of interest, to the
housewife, such as history OF
shades, general manufacturing OF
shades, harmonious effect of, shades
on interior, harmonious effect OF
shades on exterior, washable shades,
the shade rollers and many other
subjects which will prove OF I'M
rmense value. The Times has been
very fortunate in securing the serv-
ices of Mr.. Sammons and he mas
agreed to answer any queries con-
corning the proper shade and mate

&. M. ELLIS COMPANY
INCREASES FORCE

An increase in the sales force OF
the E. M. Ellis Company was an
nounced yesterday. Two Well
known Washington men have asso-
ciated themselves with the company
to sell Shelbourne homes. they
are Harling r. Buss and Russell
Hollebaugh. Mr.. Buss was until
recently connected with large
New England wholesale grocery
company. and Mr.. Hollebaugh with
the Spau1ding Company of this city.
AS these two young men have a
large circle of friens and acduain-
tances in Washington, it is expect
ed that they will meet with much
success in their endeavors to sell
such splendid values as are being
offered by the Ellis company.

WHY GO TO CHURCH?

OF remembering the Sabbath day to
keep it holy.
Give the strength OF your per.
sonel influence by attendance. That
was a fine reason given by Presi-
dent Wilson when he said. II go to
church to testify"
> Respect the church-going habits
of your friends. Do not ask them to
make social engagement. which viii
keep them from the appointed ser
vices. Do not drop in just before
church time and deprive them OF
the privilege OF worship.
Remember that the personal re
s~ponsibility of maintaining religious
services which are so necessary to
the community is not alone the min.
ister's but yours as we'll.
No m "a take your place in the
service. There is a verse in the
Scripture which says; Thou shall,
be missed for thy seat shall be
empty"
As the habit of non.attendance
has been cultivated by many, the
better habit of regular attendance
can also be cultivated to the profit
and enjoyment of all who viii at

Federal Employment Service

The federal government runs the largest employment
agency in the world. This fact is not widely known and less
widely understood and appreciated, and those who do know
about the service mistakenly suppose it refers to labor only.
The motto of the United States employment service is
Swinging Together the Jobless Man and the Manless Job"
and no matter what the applicant may be, artisan or artist,
stevedore or stenographer, whitecollar man or no-collar man,
scythe-swlnger or scientist, the employment service stands
ready with ITS countrywide resources to connect man and job.
Everything depends on the caliber of the applicant. There
are two-dollar Jobs for two-dollar men and $4,000 jobs for So
WO men. But the bureau is not a fairy god-mother furnishing
SlOOOO Jobs TO twodollar men and it would be of little bene.
lit Tor any TO seek the aid of the service in this direction.
However the detailed report of the service reads like a
piece of fiction not far removed from the fairy tale. Further.
more, 1t is a service with a heart. as may be cleaned from
numerous cases. a girl in the east with a dependent sick broth
er who needs California sunshine is found a Job in that distant
haven before she starts the long journey. A widow with lstlc
children Is found a suitable means Of supporting them and at
the same time caring for them. A disabled man with no recon-
mendation but a love and an understanding of dogs is placed
with a motion picture company to train its animal actors. A

nl'shment OF such work is Il credit to itself and TO the country

Oregon Started Something

The gasoline tax originated in Oregon in 1919, when a one.
cent n gallon tax was levied by the legislature. AT each succeed.
ing session of the legislature this tax has been increase d until
at the present session a proposal is made to raise it to six
cents. 1t Is inevitable that the taxes accruing from the sale of
gasoline viii increase at the present rates of taxation, be.
cause more cars are constantly coming into use. In California,
1T timated on good authority that the increase for the next
cars will be five per cent per annum, which will mean
hat more than ~s40OO00000 will be raised by gas taxes during
that period, a sum considerably in excess of that said to be
needed. Where is the justice in continually raising the rate of
taxation on one product, the benefits of which taxation are de-
rived by every citizen of the commonwealth? Is this equal taxa

Alcoholic Insanity

Opponents of the prohibition laws will no doubt take great
comfort from the report OF the New York state hospital com.
mission which states that insanity from alcoholism has in
creased steadily in the state since 1920, in fact has tripled in
four years.
Adherents Of the prohibition acts will take as much COM
tort that the figures show that only 121 afflicted with alec.
hohc insanity were admitted to the state institutions in 1920
and only 1913 this last year. Out of the large population of
New York state, which runs into the millions, this would not
seem a large percentage, and in fact, some of the increase
may be explained by the great yearly increase in population
every year in that state.

Lumber Industry Outlook Good

There is every reason to believe that there will be a fairly
good market for all western timber products, and that logging
and numbering industries will see no great slump in 1925. For
est products are still the most widely used material; even in
cases where steel, brick, cement or other material are basic,
lumber Is widely employed. Estimates are made that there will
be at least s5OO0O00,000 worth of building in the United states
during 1925. This is somewhat under the 1924 record. The nat,
ional housing shortage is still a fact and the pressure is strong
enought to insure a constant demand and a tremendous mar,
ket for lumber.
