HouV Newspaper Helps
to Build Community

"The outstanding character Of the
newspaper as a medium in community
advertising" says a bulletin issued by
the Associated Advertising Clubs Of
the World, sis stressed in the book
Community Advertising by Don E..
MOwry, chairman of the extension
committee of the community advertis-
ing department of the Associated Ad-
vertising Clubs" Quoting from Mr..
Mowry's book, the bulletin proceeds in
part:
"The newspaper is specific circula-
ton in a territory you desire to reach.
One can buy the circulation in the COM
munities or sections he desires to
reach by using the newspaper medi-
ums in that community or that Sec
ton. The whole question is approached
in much the same manner that one
approaches a problem involving the
sale of any commodity Commercial
successes can be credited to the news
paper by the hundreds. Communities
are recognizing the value of the news
paper.
'"The newspapers Of the country are
behind all community undertakings"
the author continues. '"They help build
communities. They have right to
expect support from those community
advertising organizations which are
aiming to develop communities. The
money raised through newspaper pub
licity, If given freely, should not be
expended in other mediums exclusive
ly to the detriment of newspaper ad-
vertising"

Fire Protection NolU
Built In With Lath

A new tendency has been recently
noted in the construction Of better
built homes. The particular develop
ment referred to is the use Of mate
rials offering greater resistance to fire.
Among these are metal lath and plas-
ter, which having been officially ac-
corded the National Board Of Fire I'm
derWriters' full One-hour rating as re-
spects their use as protection for lum-
Der studs and joists for walls and
floor, are now recognized by leading
architects as the most economical
form Of built-in fire protection suit
able for home construction.
Mindful that fires which originate in
easements are most inaccessible and
difficult of control, it was decided to
use metal lath and plaster on that
portion Of the basement ceiling over
the heating plant and boiler room.
This construction will cOnfine a fire
to the room of origin for one hour,
giving ample time for occupants to
escape from the building to summon
the fire department and extinguish the
fire before it has had a chance to
spread and involve the entire build
ing.

Making for Prosperity

Every citizen wants to preserve
what he thinks is good; every citizen
wants to improve what he thinks is
bad; every citizen wants to look after
his own private interests. These three
desires are mingled in everybody, but
in different proportions. A preponder-
ance of the first makes a reactiOnary (;
a preponderance Of the second makes
a progressive; prepOnderance of the
third makes 8 self-seeker and a place
hunter. Undue excess of any Of the
three produces a more or less evil
result Excess of the third no doubt
produces the worst result; yet the
third desire lies at the very root Of
true prosperity.-ArnOld Bennett.

Eleuating Family Life

In the crowded life Of today there
is danger that we may lose sight of
the high standards for the home and
the stimulus they afford. We all do
better when we have a high ideal to
live up to. The Better Homes in
America movement aims to give prac-
tical demonstrations Of comfortable,
healthful and attractive homes, and to
direct attention to the means by which
family life may be elevated. 1t recog-
nizes, however, that it is not the wish,
but the will; not sentimental desire,
but vigorous, well-judged leadership,
that moves our national life forward

FelU NouO Haze Faith in
LEGEND of St. Swifhir,

July Is is observed in England as
st. Swithin's day. 1t Is SO called be-
cause Of the legend connected with st.
SWithin, bishop Of Westminster, and
tutor to King Alfred. At his request
he was buried in the churchyard Of
the abbey, where passers-by might
tread on his grave, and where the rain
from the caves might fall on It," After
his canonization in S65 A. d. it was re-
solved to remove his remains to the
chancel, the customary burial place Of
the bishops, and July Is was appointed
for the ceremony; but on that day and
for forty days thereafter, st. Swithin,
to testify to his displeasure, caused
rain to fall so heavily that the monks
abandoned their design as heretical
and blasphemous From this legend
arose the popular superstition In Eng
land that if rain falls on July Is 1t
will continue to do so for the forty
days succeeding. Careful records kept
at Greenwich observatory for many
years, however, show the superstition
has no foundation in fact.-Kansas

German Socialists Drive Bauer Out

Gustav Adolf Bauer, former chan
cellor OF Germany, was the first of
the political leaders to become en-

bank scandal which has ramif1cations
in many directions. That the Social
lists, among whom he was not promi-

In the crooked operations Of the Bar

demand that he resign his seat in the

demand of his brother Socialists and
quit the reichstag.

Citizens AS TouUn Builders

Our industries and business enter
prises must grow and prosper before
our town can make headway. The
idea is to boost industries and enter
prises, and as they prosper, new in
dustries and enterprises will locate
here. Real town building Is done
through a citizenship boosting the in
dustkses and enterprises which are al
ready located. Never knock a home
enterprise When you do you create
a tendency to lower real estate values,

has Of growing.

Jardine, New Secretary of Agriculture

Out Of a list of something like
two hundred candidates who were
urged by friends and admirers, Presi-
dent Coolidge selected William NJ. Jar

than that, for he is a practical as

The Roman emperors lent money

ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 12.-Early

Annapolis by a concrete road % miles
long, which is II miles shorter than
the present route. through Upper
Marlboro and Mount Zion, is assured
by acceptances by the State Roads
Arundel county commissioners in
to that purpose during the coming
Summer.
The State Roads Commission has
already decided to devote the Fed
eral post road fund" for the counties
of Anne Arundel and Prince Georges
to this purpose. The road can now be
completed if Prince Georges County
votes lateral road funds or a small
portion of it. Under the original plan
the road was not to be finished until
1929 or 1890
With completion of the portion of
the road in Anne Arundel County
there will be a concrete road from
Annapolis to Priests Bridge over the
Patuxent. At present portion from
Lanham, in Prince Georges, to Priests
Bridge, 5.96 miles in length, is un-
completed. More than two miles of
this gap will be constructed with the
post road fund. and it is hoped that
Prince Georges will devote sufficient
of the lateral road fund to the pur-
pose to finish the road, slightly over
three miles, by the end of 1926.

LAUREL is FAVORED
AS OFFICIAL DISTRICT FLOWER
Meeting Takes Up Question Of Floral Emblem.
Sentiment of Community Is to Be Sounded
Out on Proposition.

The movement to name an official
District of Columbia flower gained
headway at a small meeting at the
District Building Tuesday, called by
Municipal Architect A. l.. Harris, but
decision was postponed until a wider
response can be obtained as to the
public sentiment.
At the meeting the consensus of
opinion favored the mountain laurel.
How the emblem finally will be
chosen has not been determined. but
it is thought that an act of Congress
will be necessary.
Urged Forget-Me-NOt.
The movement got under way when
Mrs. Eva Chase of the District
Federation of Women's Clubs recently
wrote to the District Commissioners,
urging the designation of the Forget
Me-Not as the District flower. and
calling attention to it's special signifi-
canoe in relation to District affairs.

1t was their opinion that the native
wild flower was much more to be pre-

cultivated flower, and il was suggested
that the forget-me-not was not well

Many Are Suggested.
Among the wild flowers suggested

ALL SEEM PLEASED
| BY TACNA AWARD.
Even Advices From Peru
+, Contain No Hint of Belief
| Coolidge Was Unfair.

Early indications reaching the
Washington Government of the reac-
tion in South American countries, in
Guiding Chile and Peru. to the award
made by President Coolidge as arbiter
of the Tacna-A dispute are in
terpreted by officials here as indica-
tion that the Presidents decision was
satisfactory to both countries chiefly
concerned. While the nature of COM
munications and reports which have
reached the Washington Government
through official channels has not been
disclosed, 1t can be said definitely
that there has been no unfavorabl
comment on the decision, even in such
advices as may have come from Peru.
In general, the attitude of both
Chile and Peru, as well as of neigh
boring states, is described a. one of
satisfaction that a long standing and
troublesome diplomatic situation has
been settled. Whatever feeling there
may be in either Chile or Peru that
the full contention of either country
was not sustained by the ward is Off
set by the more general feeling of re-
lief that the Tacna-Arica dispute is
definitely assigned now for early final
disposition and its embarrassing eff
feet upon international relationships is
to be removed completely.
Under the award, the member or
the special commission to be ap-
pointed by President Coolidge to
supervise the plebiscite in the two
provinces will be the president of
that commission. 1t was said today
officially that President Coolidge had
not as yet discussed with his advis-
ers in any way the selection of his
appointee. 1t is assumed that Mr..
Coolidge will not take this matter
up Immediately, as the award fixes
d period of four months within which
the three commissioners shall be ap-
pointed, and fixes the date of the first
meeting of the commission in the
town of africa as six months from the
date of the announcement of the
award.

in need of protection than the noun

In some parts of the country noun
tain laurel is becoming exceedingly
rare and much in need of protection,
but in the District of Columbia and
vicinity it grows in considerable
abundance and can be cultivated with
little difficulty. 1t is estimated that
mountain laurel tracts cut over for
flowers and leaves for decorative pur-

sufficient growth in the time interven-
ing to maintain a continuous supply of
