Officers and men of the District Ma
tlonal Guard are as perturbed as are
the guardsmen of the various States
because of the possibility of holding
up" the Federal National Guard ap-
preparation. II the money is not re-
leased, so the local guard officials can
have pay available for their troops, it
is thought that such will seriously in
terfere with the annual encampment
the coming Summer.
The District guard has been seri-
ously handicapped for many years
because of inadequate armory facil-
tiles. Inspecting officers have con-
demned the quarters at Az Il street
northwest as wholly inadequate for
training and housing purpose and not
conducive to the best morale of
troops. Added to this, the possible
Withholding of pay for armory drills
has dampened the spirit of the men.
Regular Army instructors have work
ed out a schedule of progressive in
struction to carry the units to the
date of the encampment. No less
training than that called for in the
overcrowded schedule would enable
the guardsmen to make a creditable
showing. 1T is said.
The morale of the 121st Engineers
Band has been greatly improved since
the recent enactment of legislation
permitting men over As years of age
to draw pay for National Guard serv-
ice. The pay of several members of
the band had been held up, but sup
Elementary pay rolls are being pre-
pared and they will soon receive back
pay due them. There are a larger
number of older men in the band than
in any other unit of like size in the
guard, due to the fact that all mem
bers have to be musicians of expert
ence. The following will receive back
pay: Corpl. Charles S. Woodin, Pvts.
(first class) Joseph A. Dodge, Max w.
Esberger. James X. Russell, William
|. Saunders, Edwin NJ. Tassil, Charles
b. Mcpherson and Joseph II. Neely.
Master Sergt. Sidney G.. HUNT of
headquarters company will also re-
ceive back pay.
Private Herndon Davis, a student at
the Corcoran Art School. has painted
portrait of Capt. Sidney Morgan OF
Headquarters and Service Company,
which has been placed in the company
assembly room. 1t has been the sub
ject of much favorable comment. II
is expected that portraits of other
guard officers will be made for the
various headquarters. Private Davis
is now engaged in painting on the
walls of the armory building room
assigned to Headquarters and Serv-
ice Company a scene of anti-aircraft
guns operating at night, the picture
being two-thirds actual size.

THE MODERN BARBER
SHOP

BY THOMAS Ankle CLARK
THE barJer shop, as l first knew it,
u was, ike the livery stable dis
tinctly an institution which only
males frequented. Women never en-
tered it; if they glanced in curiousy
as they passed, as no doubt they some
times did, ii was a hasty and a fur
tive glance which they hoped would
not be noticed; it was an unladyllke
and immodest thing to do, like look
ing in at an open door as one passes
down hotel corridor. II one Of the
children had to be shorn, he was put
in charge Of father or one of the older
boys. The barber shop, il was agreed,
was no place for a woman and poor
place for an innocent hoy.
The cuspidor, or a box filled with
ashes near the stove was prominent
among the furnishings; the Police Ga

Dodged Taxes Could
Pay Firemen's Raise

CHICAGo-(FP) The taxes lodged
by a single big antiunion trust would
practically pay the entire sum needed
by Chicago's city fire fighters to bring
their wages to the level of a score of
