for the thirteenth month OF the
year which the national committee
on calendar simplification, now

mote.

1t will create at least one more
payday for the worker, but 1t also
will give him one more month s
rent to pay. All bills will come

tan Life Insurance CO.; Gerard
Swope, president of the General

PLAN fort RENO
PLAY CENTER

Purchase of land surrounding
the Reno reservoir on the site of
Fort Reno, one OF the Civil War
defenses of Washington, is under
way in preparation for laying out
a recreation center on the highest
spot in Washington.
Land acquired for extending the
water works was in excess Of
actual needs and the surplus will
be used as nucleus for the
recreation center. The new water
works consist Of a reservoir on
which work is under way and a
water tank already built.
A Junior high school will be built
on site adjoining the recreation
tract. Plans for the center are not
worked out in detail, owing TO uncer.
tainty as to how much money can
be spent for land. 1t Is being ac-
quired out OF lump sum appropria-
tions covering the park needs for the
entire District.
According TO Major Carey Brown.
executive officer of the National
Capital Park and Planning Commits
sion, it would take 81 900 900 to buy
the land necessary for a good de-
velopment. but the commission can
only devote fraction of its $500 900
annual appropriation for the pur-
pose.
When the boulevard connecting
the chain of Washington forts is
built, Fort Reno will be one Of It's
prettiest spots. From the tract on

Everywhere Governor Smith went
about rural Missouri he was spon.
sored by Charles M. Hay, the
Democratic senatorial candidate for
Jim" Reeds seat. Hay is a mill
tant dry, but he isn't letting that
fact interfere with his advocacy of
Smiths selection.
Hay preceded Governor Smith on
the program at the fair grounds last
night. And while the thousands of
dry, Protestant rural Missourians
listened attentively. he said:
Il care not whether he is wet or
dry, whether he be Catholic or
protestant, Jew or Gentle, there is
not man in America who can read
the record of Governor Smith with.
out respecting it. He is not only an
honest man. but man incapable of
sitting in the midst of dishonesty
and criminality.
"And If there is one thing we
need in America today it is the voice
of militant honesty
Governor Smith was introduced to
his rural audience by Senator Harry
B. Halves, OF st. Louis.
Governor Smith was scheduled to

ule called for reaching the railroad
