She had always to prompt Jefferson
Poole in the matters of walters and
taxis and such. Isabel liked food to b~
ordered suavely, with low-voiced au-
thority in things requiring choice.
How about a steak?" was the com
monest inspiration of Jefferson Poole.
He was apt to add hashed brown
potatoes, and he always insisted on
ice cream. This time proved no ex-
ception.
Isabel said that she would have a
chicken sandwich and a pot of Ceylon
tea. She kept on her coat till the
steak and the sandwich arrived. Then
she slipped it off and tried to slip
the scarf away with 1t. She might
have known it would snare his eye.
Perhaps she did know, and the knowl

the scarf caught in the buckle of her

tangled a thread and freed her, his
dark eyes widening with pleasure.

States Forest Service In this
city. In this and other dark rooms
he has spent about six hours day
for more than half q century. In
other words, he is the oldest active
photographer in the Government
service.
Charles c. Jones. officially desig..
mated as a wet-plate photographer Of
the Forest Service, may be described
as the authorized Government pho
tographer for photographing Indians.
He is the only man who made por
traits of all the Indians coming to
Washington during nearly 20 years
from 1881 to 1900. Mr.. Jones was in
that period photographer for the
United States Geological Survey,
which then embraced the functions
of the Bureau of Ethnology, now a
part of the Smithsonian Institution.
AS the pioneer Indian photographer,
making the first pictures of Indians
for the Government in 1881, Mr.. Jones
recalls having made these pictures in
a room over a horse stable, used by
Prof. Baird, then head of the Smith
sonian Institution, for Keeping his
mount 1t was, of course. before the
dayS of the automobile. On one side
of this dark room above the horse
stable were the rooms of taxider
mist, who would put birds on the
roof of the building to rot so that the
flesh might be removed and their
skins preserved for artificial stuffing.
In this environment, not altogether
inviting, the first Government por
traits of Indians for chronological pur
poses were obtained.
The Geological Survey then occupied
the northeast corner rooms of the
Smithsonian Building, and the Wash
ington staff of this Government serv
ice consisted of barely more than a
dozen persons. Now the Geological
Survey occupies the large share of
floor Of the Department Of the Interior
Building and its personnel numbers
several hundred.
This veteran photographer. the only
photographer of the Geological Sur
vey at that time. and one of perhaps
two or three then in the Government
service, was not restricted In his work
to making impressions Of the profiles
of Indians. When he had served his
apprenticeship and received his ap
pointment as a full fledged photogra-
pher, he became attached to the eXpe-
dition Of j. w. Powell. commissioned
by the Geological Survey to make the
first trip down the Colorado River.

WORK OF CHILDREN
WILL Be DISPLAYED
Episcopal Churches Plan to
Stress Efforts of
Students.

Representatives of 10 parishes of
the Episcopal Church in the Diocese
of Washington met at Diocesan House
recently to discuss the arrangements
for demonstrating to the people of
the church during the meeting of the
general convention in October, 1928,
the work which the children OF the
church are doing in the service of
their fellowmen. Miss Frances H.
Withers of New York, who has charge
of the service program of the church
schools, addressed the meeting.
While plans are as yet indefinite, it
is expected that the demonstration
will be carried out along three differ
ent lines. First. there will be a series
of classes in which those who are in
terested in work with children may
learn the details of group manage
ment, including the principles of child
education and the technique Of hand.
work.
Second, there will be in several city
churches model sessions of group
meetings OF children for Christian
service. These will be so planned that
several types of meetings will be
demonstrated. 1t is possible that one
meeting will take the form of a dra-
matte presentation. The third fea-
ture will be an exhibit of children's
work, intended principally for those
who are not familiar with the Church
School Service League.
It is planned to place together some
of the best things that children have
done so that the passerby may get a
comprehensive view of the possibili-
ties of children's work for the benefit
of others. The service program pro
vides for prayer, study. fellowship,
work and gifts and takes thought for
five fields of service the
parish. the community, the diocese,
the nation and the world.
The children's Lenten offering for
use in domestic and foreign missions,
now being collected by the children of
the Episcopal Sunday schools of
Washington, is part of the work of
the service program. -
