US. CLERKS OFF TO SPEND
HOLIDAYS BACK HOME

Thousands of Government clerks
have taken advantage Of the three.
day holiday-today, tomorrow and
Sunday--to return to their homes
in distant States.
The three-day holiday is an ex-
pertinent which the Government is
trying this year in place Of the
customary half-holidays on Christ.
mas and New Year eve.
Many Government employees who
have annual leave left are taking
continuous vacations beginning to.
day and lasting until January 4.
Many even took yesterday off in
order to get more time for their
trips.
AS result, little work was done
yesterday in most of the depart
ments. Those who turned up for
the time yesterday spent much of
the day preparing Christmas trees
and giving and receiving presents.
Nearly every department and
bureau had a Christmas celebra-
ton around big tree and in
many cases their families were
also included in the festivities.

i j Sc ARNORY
HERE URGED

Legislation providing for con
struction Of great District d
coluznbia National Guard armory
viii be presented to Congress
through the District Committees Of
THE Senate and House soon after
the Christmas holidays. It WA
learned today.
For several years bills for this
purpose have been pending before
the Committee on Public Buildings
and Grounds but no action has
been taken. It is hoped that juris.
diction over the measure may be
vested in the District Committees
sn the bill may escape the pressure
of national building legislation pend
ing before the building committees.
Two Plans in Sight
SAt least two plans for the armory
viii be presented. Mai. Gen. Anton
Stephan, commandant OF the guard
for the District OF washington, IL
expected to appear before both
committees early in January to
urgent need for early construction
of a home for the District guard.
One OF the plans viii call for
the construction of great granite
building of monumental proportions
and design, to be located ii the two
squares bounded by Twelfth and
Thirteneth SITS, Pennsylvania Ave.
and G st. N. W., crossing . ST.,
which must be closed for the pur-
pose. The site Is Immediately west
of the .Postoffice Department
Building.
The other plans will call for a
more utilitarian building, probably
in combination with a motor bus
terminal. as proposed this summer
by District officials. This struc-
ture would be located north OF
Pennsylvania Avenue, on site
yet to be determined.
The District Guard for many years
occupied rented quarters over Cen.
ter Market and later moved to the
Armory adjoining Convention Hall.
at Fifth and L SITS. N. w.
Commission Was Created
In 1908 Congress created a com.
mission to prepare plans and esti-
mates for suitable armory. This
commission prepared report which
rii. be psed as bass for con-
Stfuetlon OF the proposed ulOnu-
mental ar'nory on Pennsylvania ave-
nue.. The structure, it was esti-
mated at that time, would cost
81. 565, 900. At the present time the
same structure probably would cost
more than $1,000, 0O0 1t is stated
The building is dasi0Eed 10 house
two regiments of infantry, a cav
AIRY troop, four companies Of coast
artillery, a battery, a company Of
engineers. a signal and hospital
corps and the brigade staff.
The PENNSYLVANIA Avenue site
would permit construction Of a
hnilding having $4,000 square feet
of ground space. The assessed valu-
alton of the two squares which
would have to be purchased Is
sass $50 for the square on he ave-
nue. and $607 ,311 Al for the square
between G and D SIS.

SEARCH OF
CIT TSAT
JAIL

If any Of the Districts guests
at the local Jail received rope lad
ders, steel files or other Imple-
ments of escape in their Christ
mas parcels, the blame certainly
can't be laid at the door Of Maj.
william L. Peak and his hawk
eyed assistants.
Three men worked constantly for
a week-and they worked especially
hard yesterday opening packages
Of Christmas gifts, food, fruit and
everything.
Oranges were rolled and squeezed,
to see that the fruit had not been
made i hiding-pIace for narcotic
drugs or needles.
Cakes were sliced carefully, to
preclude any chance Of their hold
ing anything but cake.
Whole baked chickens were opened
and mInutely explored, and candies
were piled into boxes provided by
the jail.
In short, everything brought to
the prisoners by their relatives or
friends was scrutinized most care.
| fully.
superintendent Peak had given
1 orders not to slur over the work,
simply because a rush was on, as
I at such times as Christmas, when q
/ great volume OF material passes
! through the hands OF the inspectors,
Z they are tempted to take chance
now and then, and let some article
slip by.
One of the strictest rules at the
jail is that no sharp or pointed
! instruments are admissible gifts
! On a prominent place In the in
spection office Yesterday there re-
posed gold writing pen, the holder
being peacock feather. The pris.
.oner for whom 1t was intended will
never get il until ne leaves.
Such caution must be exercised
| because OF the depression which
sometimes seizes upon prisoners and
leads them to thoughts of suieids.
In such moments they cast about
for some article with which to Der
form the deed.
| Consequently. it is up to the off
/ Gals to see that nothing in The
| nature of potential equipment Is
| placed In the cells.
Capt. George Ratherdale. who
superintends the work of inspection.
| said that the volUHlo OF parcel post
packages containing Christmas gifts,
received at the Jail this season, was
one OF the heaviest in his memory.
The prisoners today are enjoying
| a Christmas tree, and a program
of entertainment has been ar
ranged for them.
| The only drawback to their full
! enjoyment is that many have to
serve time before they get their
| liberty.
The majority believe that Christ
| mas In jail is not so bad, especially
| when all your friends think you
need clothes, cigars, pies. chickens
and candy.

And there as here In brotherhood to

Evil influences, WHICH ne nad
foreseen long before he entered

Holler stepped with firm tread
across he rotunda Of the Jail to-
meet his prospective interviewer.

warm and friendly. A photographer
approached him.

He presented his case with tact
full grace, but also with firmness.
The photographer decamped. The
interviewer found that while this
man in clerical garb, convicted of
using the mails to defraud, was
averse to pictures, he talked readily
and freely.
His Religion New
His keen eyes were alight with
sincerity as he spoke OF the Theo'
monistiie religion and deplored the
misrepresentation that had been
given it.

degree, leaving behind us the err
rors and inperfections of our

these various stages, and some of
us have passed through several diff
ferent names.
You understand that death is

ION the other hand, should we

existence has a downward trend"
Bishop" Holler did not care to
discuss the affairs of Oriental Uni
Versity. His heart was too full.
He had a Christmas message, al.
ready written out, for his brethren
in the Theomonistic faith, and ne
regarded the interyiewer's request
for such a message as more than
a coincidence~-ah, yes, 1t was far
more significant.
He went to his cell TO get the
message, bowling to the guards ana
turkeys with a courtly and slight
ly condescending air, and swept
back to his interviewer with the
greeting in his hand.
The bishop is popular at the
Jail. He il courteous and attentive
and quite amenable to discipline.
He has been discussing his faith
and his past life with his fellow
prisoners. the iailers say, and his
brother in misfortune can't under
stand why such nice old man is
at the Jail at all.
