Al very refreshing personality at

Ryder puts an individual life into
her playing that is poetic, yet also
filled with a certain gay spirit OF

She Is interesting.
The program served a double
purpose. that OF introducing the
artist and OF pointing out a valuable
literature. In piano records. that
enabled the artist to play--with her
own alter-ego- concertos. two-piano
music, and even duets with this
ghost self at the bass part, OF the
same piano.

Treasury Officials Views
Treasury officials were inclined to
take the figures on the Grange
movie contract as bona fide, although
it was pointed out that investiga-
lions of many moving picture, the
atrical and sporting agreements, sup
posed to have called for enormous
salaries, were not borne out by the
subsequent income tax returns.

one official said. Treasury tax In
vestigators, however, are planning
to keep a closer watch on reported
big salaries paid to moving picture
and other entertainment favorites.
Returns from this class Of tax
payers in 1925 did not correspond
with the newspaper reports Of sal.
aries.
In the future it is expected that
these discrepancies will be investi-
gated.

200-FT. ROADWAY
TO THE VALLEY
Boulevard Practically Assured-VoI.
unteer Declarations of Land

Construction of the proposed 200
foot boulevard and parkway from
Washington to the Shenandoah Val
ley is practically assured as result
of speedy voluntary dedications OF
necessary land.
Practically the entire route, for
the full width of 200 feet, has been
offered without reservation between
the terminus of the propose d
Arlington Memorial Bridge and Falls
Church, Va, it has been announced.
Other sections have been offered,
including a three-mile stretch be-
tween Manassas and Warrenton,
Va.
1t is believed that the entire
route can be secured with very lit
tie expenditure for purchase of land,
except in built-up communities, and
without necessity for long drawn out
condemnation proceedings.
All of the property owners along
the route who have dedicated land
for the purpose have willingly
agreed to the plan to restrict build
ing to beyond a line 60 feet on either
side of the. 200-foot width, making
a clear width of 800 feet between
building lines.
The boulevard is to be 80 feet
wide.
Plans are being completed for sub
mission of the matter to the state
general assembly of Virginia this
winter, with request that the legis-
lators expedite the construction of
the highway by advancing funds and
by authorizing campaign for pop
ular subscriptions.

OFF FOR SUMMER

President and Mrs. Coolidge are
ports and data on the foreign debt
back in New England and have sci
up their summer home at Swamp
scott, on the Massachusetts, coast.
Mr.. Coolidge does not look for
ward to the two months visit as a
real vacation, feeling the presiden-
tiai Office does not permit of an actual
iay-on. However, a broad smile
broke over the Presidents face as
ne waved goodbye to Washington
from the observation platform early
Tuesday afternoon.
Such government business as is
pending Mr.. Coolidge had with him,
including the tarif commission re-
situation.
An Office has been set nm in LYNN.
Mass, and lines of communication
with the White House established.
Part OF the executive Office force ac-
companied the presidential party

The President told visitors the pur-
pose of his trip was to obtain
change in atmospheric conditions.

cation"
