Perfection at Hand.

When n few motorists can inspect
the years offerings and fail to find
cars to, satisfy them, then perfection
still is dream. But when every one
can find at least one car that meets
every requirement of the particular in
dividual who will own and drive it,
then perfection is at hand. Something
closely experimenting this will be re-
vealed to local motorists during the
busy week ahead.
Never before were colorS so varied
on cars of all descriptions, even to
those with the lowest price tags, yet
it is a fact that the new model in
perfection demands that some of the
cars be offered in stock black. Not
everybody wants color. Many people
are thinking in terms of downright
utility regardless of style and beauty
If there were no cars to meet this de-
ma nd there would be no sense in talk
ing about perfection at this time.
In reviewing the new cars one is
tempted to pick out the more popular
trends and set them down as basic
specifications of the perfect auto
mobile. But yielding to such a temp
tation would mean missing altogether
the real message of the year from the
standpoint of car construction. Look
ing through the maze of misinforma-
ton 1t is becoming more and more ap-
parent that no one trend ever will
become universal and that the perfect
automobile never will he the product
so many people imagine. No one me-

TRUANT OFFICERS
DEF|ED BY Pupil" !"
"Pat" Quits Rather Than
Lead Dogs Life by Accom-
! panying Bill to Tech.

Defying truancy officers to do their
worst, one of the best-known students
OF the BrightWood School has quit his
classes, and he doesn't give three
yeips and ki-yi who knows it.
Anyway. teachers and students of
the Brightwood School are doggone
sorry that Pat up and left them cold,
Just in the middle of the semester and
everything Pat is Just a dog, but an
exceptionally educated one, and he
was on friendly terms with all his
schoolmates. in spite of the fact that
he was the teachers pet.
Starts School Early.
Pat started to school about two
years ago. when he was Just a wear
old. He got in the habit of following
his youthful master. Bill Brinkman
from his home at 1884 Gee gia ave-
nue., to the school and into the class
rooms-much to the despair, at first,
of the faculty and to the delight of
the pupils
His good collie breeding stood him
In good stead. however. and before
long Pat was just naturally taken for
granted around the BrightWoOd
School. He would follow Bill to school
In the morning, rOmn with him at re-
cess, go home with him for lunch, re-
turn for the afternoon sc ession and
then go home again at o'clock like
the rest of the bunch.
Pat knew how to play hide-and-seek
better than most Of the boys, thanks
70 his canine sense of detection, and
he could catch a ball without a fun
Bile. When the bell rang he got in
line and marched into the school
alongside Bill, and If he felt thirsty
he went right to the drinking foun-
tain, stood on his hind legs and lap
ped 'er down in approved manner.
Gets Special Pan.
Pats behavior at the drinking foun-
tain didn't exactly coincide with
school health regulations, and finally
he was given special pan at the
foot Of the fountain.
When the current school term
opened, however, Bill and Pat parted
ways. Bill had graduated to the
ranks Of high school students. but
Pat resumed his old place in line at
the Brightwood School. Each day he
hoped that BIZ would repent and come
back to Brightwood instead Of vast
ing his time at Tech, where they have
so many aggravating rules and regu-
IatiOns to make you lead a dogs life.
But Bill didn't come back, and so
not long ago. Pat decided to quit
school entirely rather than go to high
school
Pat verified all these things in an
Interview with a Star reporter to-
day.
That's my tale and I'm gonna stick
70 It," he said, which proves that
Pat is something of wag, either
way you look at it.

Of cotton is 20 per cent greater this
year than ever before.
While not attempting to minimize
the situation in the South due to the
surplus crop, Mr. Rankin declared
that the South had seen cotton go
down to 6 cents in 1914 and the price
doubled the next year.
I'VE have just as good a right to
expect an increase next year." he said.
THE low price Of cotton is bound to
stimulate the textile industry and in
crease European demand. with a re-
sultant increase in advertising needs.
Mr.. Rankin declared that the South
was not confronted with stagnation
as a result of the situation. claiming
that most of the crop was picked and
harvested when selling at 16 cents q
pound. Curtailment of next years
crop, he declared to be the greatest
problem, one which the advertisers
could help solve through cooperation
with business and bank associations.
Sees Reduced Acreage.
Farmers will reduce their acreage
If compelled to do so, Mr.. Rankin
said. and this can be accomplished by
refusing credit to those who refuse
to live up to such agreements. Sock
the surplus should be your advertis-
ing slogan" he told the delegates.
Edward T. Hall of ST. Louis, presi-
dent of the Association of National
Advertisers, speaking from the view
point of a manufacturer, stressed the
necessity of lowering the cost of ad-
vertising and thereby reducing the

Lieut.. Emory P. Hylant, U. S. N,
md Mrs. Hylant are the proud par
,nts of an unusual sort of infant
genius. The annals of the American
Medical Association chronicle in
stances where infants have learned
o talk unusually early and do other
wonderful things, but nowhere else,
according to DR.. Joseph M. Heller Of
The Parkwood Apartment, is there
known case where a baby has learned
to whistle itself to sleep at the age
Of seven months.
The baby is Emory Paul Hylant, Jr.,
and with it's parents, lives at South
brook Courts, 3420 Sixteenth street.
Ever since Emory Paul was months
old, he has been making whistling
noises, but now he can whistle loud
enough to make his sailor father, ac-
customed to hearing the ships bo's'n
piping, jump occasionally. He delights
In whistling himself to sleep, too.

Infant Of Naval Officer Here Puts Himself

When 5 Months Old.

Heredity plays no part in this phe-
nomenon, according to DR.. Heller, who
related the facts to number OF other
physicians and was assured none OF
them had ever before heard of such
an unusual case. DR.. Heller attended
Mrs. Hylant at her birth, and he de-
clares there was no whistling at her
crib. The father. as a naval officer,
would never think of whistling, for
on shipboard the only dignitary who
may whistle is the bo's'n, and even
he calls it piping
Emory Paul has learned to know
what the word whistle" means, too.
Whenever his parents want him to
demonstrate his talents, they merely
say whistle, sweetheart" and the
baby begins tuning up Immediately,
puckering his little mouth precisely
the same as any adult would when
about to trill the latest blue" Emory

WORKERS MAY ASK
NEW ANNUITY LAW
Navy Yard Employees Ses-
sion and Joint Parley May
Map Further Program.

Although the joint conference on
retirement of civil service employees
has not yet drafted a definite pro
gram for the immediate future,
Robert H. Alcorn, chairman, pre-
dicted today that lin all probability
some further legislation on the sub
iect of retirement Of Government en-
ployes will be proposed at the coming
session of Congress.
The retirement federation of en-
ployes in navy yards, naval stations
and arsenals will hold its annual
meeting in Washington Saturday, at
which the general question of retire
ment will undoubtedly be discussed.
Will Meet Next Month.
The Joint conference itself, GEN.
trail group through which various or
ganiZations Of Government workers
cooperate, will meet here about the
middle of November.
Mr.. Alcorn said today the question
Of what form further legislation should
take would not be taken up until the
November meeting Of the conference,
but he regards as it as being more
than likely some measure will be ad-
vocated.
Twenty Delegates Expected.
He pointed out that while the meas
ure enacted at the last session was
marked improvement over the old re-
tirement law, it fell short Of meeting
the terms regarded as reasonable ana
adequate by Government workers.
The new law raised the maximum
annuity from $72G to $1,000 and the
added cost was met by the increase in
the employees contribution to the re-
tirement fund.
Approximately 20 delegates are ex-
pected to attend the meeting of the
retirement federation Of navy yard
workers in Typographical Temple
Saturday. In addition to discussing
the retirement law, this federation
will elect officers for the ensuing year.
