coLuMBIA CLUBS. CoNcERT.

GOAONA0AA 01OH0 &OkNOsNAs -
The third annual concert and dance
Of the Columbia Banjo, Mandolin and
Guitar, and Hawaiian Guitar and Uku-
lele Clubs was presented last night at
Barker Hall, Y. w. c. A., at Seventeenth
and x streets northwest The clubs,
under the direction Of Sophocles T.
Papas, well known In local musical cir
cles, presented varied program, in
Guiding songs by Rosa Poilio-Jarman, q
contralto.
The members of the clubs are all pupils
of Mr.. Papas, and the annual concerts
are given in the interest of the pupils to
give them practical experience In or
chestral work.
The program was opened with the
presentation OF Overture" by Biting
diers of Fortune March" by the man
dolin club.
Miss Jarman, assisted by Martha
Stevens at the piano, impressed the au-
dience with the sincerity of her singing.
She presented several numbers, among
them Leoncavallo's "Aprile" and "J'ai
Pluere en- Reve" by Georges Hue.
The Hawaiian Guitar and Ukulelc
Club then made its appearance and
played several numbers, with special ar
rangements by Mr.. Papas, to such effect
that an encore was played, Till We
Meet Again" The number billed as
Popular Medley was interesting In
that it demonstrated it was possible to
render so-called "jazz" in a highly ar
tistic manner.
Mr.. Papas played two solos on the
guitar, Variations on Theme by Mo-
zart," by Sor-Segovia and Malat's Ser
enata." He showed artistic sense of
Interpretation as we'll as obvious talent.
Miss Jarman then offered three songs,
accompanied by Mr. Papas on the
guitar. Marie, Maria" by di Capua
was especially well received by the audi
ence.
+ The Banjo Club concluded the musi-
cal entertainment of the evening with a
medley of Southern favorites, climax
ing with Dixie" AS an encore, "Marche
Militaire" was rendered.
Informal dancing followed the pro-
gram with music furnished by the
Hawaiian Melody Boys.

ing the matter over TO the peoples
counsel was for a legal opinion as TO
whether there is any difference In subs
metering electric current and submeter-
ing telephone service. The commission
on February % handed down an order
rent. If Mr.. Fleharty rules that tele-
phone service should be considered on
the same basis the commission probably
will have public hearing to determine
whether the same rule should apply to
both; In that case the telephone COM
pany would be called upon to revise its
contracts with apartment house owners.

Earl v. Fisher, secretary of the Public

that he had turned over to Peoples

junk yards, etc, to seek to enter the
same area, with serious damage to the
future of Arlington County.
1T is further believed by this feder-
alton that the county will suffer a
serious financial loss by reason of the
location Of the slaughter house at the
point proposed. Not only will home
seekers be discouraged from locating
in Arlington County, but not even other
industries will be willing to locate ada
cent a slaughter house. Thus, many
times the amount received from the
proposed plant in taxes, will be lost
to Arlington County.
"It is further the opinion OF this
federation that Arlington County owes
to the Nation and to the Government
of the United States the duty Of CO.
operating to the extent of its powers In
preventing the creation within its bor-
derS of any condition not in harmony
with its proximity to the Memorial
Bridge, the proposed Mount Vernon
Boulevard, Jefferson Davis Highway
and the tomb of the Unknown Soldier
at Arlington.
This federation, having heretofore
pledged its cooperation to the National
Capital Park and Planning Commission
in the orderly development of the Vir-
that pledge and respects its opposition
to the location of slaughter house at
the point proposed"
Would Await Zoning.
The meeting adopted reccommen-
dalton of the executive committee, pre-
Sented by L. c. McNenar, that 1.-The
federation considered it unwise for the
board of commissioners to permit the
location of any manufacturing plant OF
major industry in Arlington County
until such time as the coming COM
mission shall have zoned the county
in accordance with authority granted by
the General Assembly of Virginia"
Another resolution offered by the
executive committee and adopted aims
to put the Zoning Commission in a
position to expedite its work so that
the county will not suffer a loss
through observance of the intent of the
preceding resolution. The commission
ance of it's duties because OF lack of
funds, and the resolution urges the
Board of Supervisors to create fund
of $4,000 by means of special tax
levy of 2 cents on each 500 of as
SeSSed valuations.
Calling attention to official acknowl-
edgement of deplorable sanitary condi-
tions at the county jail, another reso-
luton offered by the executive COM
mittee and adopted requests the Board
of Supervisors to use Sill, 900 raised by
special tax levy to remedy conditions.
The committee on revenues and eX-
penditures of the county is directed by
the resolution to keep in touch with
the matter.
Mr.. Flymale, reporting on activities
of the interfederation conference, of
which the federation is part, received
Endorsement of resolution favoring
the proposed uniform motor vehicle
traffic code, which is similar to others.
The resolution approved by other bodies
affiliating with the conference urges

sioner to take steps to have the Vir-
ginia code harmonic with that OF
other States.

anything that would prevent entrance
into the Democratic primary or alliance
with the Republican party. In fact. a
resolution adopted urged all anti-Smith
voters to refrain from participating in
any primary, mass meeting or conven-
ton of either of the parties or COM
hitting themselves in any way.
Would Repudiate Leaders.
While reputation of the national
Democratic party leadership by State
leaders of the party was not mentioned
In the formal statement at the conclu-
sion of the executive session here, this
was seen by some as prerequisite to
entrance of the anti-Smith Democrats
into the Democratic primary. 1t was
also held in political circles that the
anti-Smith Democrats would insist on
Endorsement of their stand in the pres
idential campaign by the State leaders,

claring that they were not considered

SCHOOL IS SEEMED
FOR BASKET BALL
Fairfax Board Refuses to
Adopt Policy Regarding
Athletic Events.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


FAIRFAX, Va, February 6.-The
Fairfax County School Board held its
first meeting in the boardroom of the
new clerks office building yesterday. In
response to a request of Charles Suter,
secretary of the Jewell Athletic Club
of Arlington County, to use the Mclean
Auditorium for basket ball practice one
night each week, the board decided the
use of school buildings by such outside
organizations was inadvisable. 1t was
decided that no general policy could
be adopted, and district trustees and
local school committees should decide
cases on their merits. F. S. McCand-
lish advocated the use of school build
ings as community centers under proper
supervision. The board felt that every
organization using the halls should pay
a small rent.
John Haislip, DR.. F. M. Brooks and
w. r. Woodson were appointed to CO.
operate with Wilson M. Farr. attorney,
and Mr.. and Mrs. j. P. Chadwick OF
Snowden in working out plan whereby
the school board may acquire lot or
adequate size and better location, upon
which can be erected more suitable
school. It was felt wise to defer actual
selection of the lot until the route of
the Mount Vernon Memorial Boulevard
is definitely staked out.
A special meeting Of the trustees of
Providence, Dranesyille and Centerville
districts was called for Friday at 10
am. to meet with the engineer of the
company which is figz<ng on the in
stallation of tubular ftIe escapes on the
school buildings at Mclean, Oakton,
Floris, Clifton, Jefferson, Falls Church
and Forestville. The board refused to
grant permission for the teachers who
wish to teach school February % instead
of March 4, in order to attend the in
auguration ceremonies in Washington.
On recommendation of Division Super
intendent M. D. Hall, Trustee Haislip
moved that the chairman and clerk of
the board be authorized to sign a con-
tract with Miss Louise Washington to
complete the unexpired term of Mrs.
r. L. Harrington, teacher of Laurel
Grove School Messers. DeBell. Lynch
Bready and McCandlish were appointed
to represent the school board at the
public hearing on the budget to be held
by the board of supervisors March &
and at the regular meeting Of the board
of supervisors on March G, when tax
rates are fixed for the coming year.

What Doctors Saw
About the
Laxative Habit

What do YOU do when the bowels
need a little assistance? If you
cleanup the condition with some
laxative made with CASCARA,
there Is nothing better for the
system-for the blood.
But il you don't KNOW the
laxative you have learned to de-
pend on is of harmless cascara,
here's some truly valuable advice:
The bark of a tree called cas-
cara is the most marvellous condi-
toner mankind has yet found. It
stimulates the bowels muscular
action, but does NOT weaken. A
violent laxative forms the laxative

Quick Success

Few girls in pictures have made
such rapid strides toward success
as this charming New Yorker.
Just few months ago she was
given her first job, shadowing q
star. Within three hours, she had
real part in the picture-"The
Loves of Sunya."
Miss Bayard says: II am told
my selection was largely due to
my perfect skin and lovely hair
I've really never taken much
trouble with either. For my hair
I use the simple method that
most of the girls I know here in
New York are so enthusiastic
about. It's so easy. All you do
is put a little Danderine on your
brush each time you use it.
This method is just what a
busy girl needs. It's so easy; and
it keeps your hair and scalp SO
clean you don't need to shampoo
half so often. I am letting my
hair grow and I find Danderine
helps make it soft and easily
manageable. I can arrange it any
way want and it stays that way.
All my friends are complimenting
me on the appearance Of my hair
nowadays because Danderine has
brought out all it's natural color
and made it so soft and lustrous. !"
Danderine removes the oily film
from each strand and makes dull,
