what they ate was fish, peas,
chicken, asparagus and strawberry
ice cream.
But. you can take it from some Of
the guests, the food was simply
swell.
Then arose Mr.. Joseph Urbcu and
passed out poems. The poems were
in praise of the decorations, which,
oddly enough, had been done by one
Mr.. Joseph Urban.
The poems explained that in the
main dining room broad surfaces
of silver give a neutral background
to a pulsating rhythm Of maroon
and green which rises to a crescendo
of purple, blue and green"
After dinner the guests were at
liberty to stroll into the small dining
room in which gray fumed knotty
pine, a ruddy ceiling and coarse ma
terials of vigorous texture and pat
tern establish the atmosphere de-
signed to be suitable for breakfast
after a morning ride, a leisTely in

diners driven from the terrace by

It was some six weeks ago that
Biddle, FlOTenz Ziegfeld, Adolph
ZukOr and William Rhinelander
Stewart announced they intended
to revive the glory of the Casino,
where gentlefolk rested their BIZ
cycles against the veranda and
swallowed mint julepS in the nine
ties.
The general public, Of course, was
to be invited That was why no one
could understand why the place was
searched so carefully for stoWaWays,
why a special squad of police eyed
guests coldly and even seemed a
trifle suspicious of the two prin-
CeSseS and the admiral who waved
their invitations.
Both Princess RoSpigliosi and
Princess LopkOWicz convinced the
detectives they belonged to the
party and soon Admiral Harris also
sailed safely through the outer de-
fenseS.

through the lobby where absence
of ornament and reliance upon pure
proportion serve as a foil to the

pains in my stomach. I could not
sleep at night even though I was
all tired out. In the morning 1

than when I went to bed. lost
weight and had no pep at all. The
first and only relief came when 1

petite came back. and my digestion
improved wonderfully. I can eat
heartily again and with no gas, and
no rock-like sensation in my Stom-
ach. Ny nerves are steady, I sleep
splendidly every night. and feel full
OF pep when I get up. Life sure
looks different for me since I got
back to health, and I'm mighty
thankful to Viuna'

Substantial economic progress was
made by Washington during the past
year. the outstanding factors in the
general business situation being tbs
Federal building program, recovery OF
real estate and building activity in
creased salaries for Government en-
ployes, which increased the buying
power of the local market, and the
continued growth at healthy rate OF
local industrial undertakings.
This is the finding of Dorsey w.
HYDE. ir., secretary of the Washington
Chamber of Commerce, based on a
study of reports from agencies con-
cerned with various major phases OF
local business during the year
The Federal building program has
resulted in the condemnation OF land
and the starting of construction OF the
much-needed new buildings to house
various Government departments. Mr..
HYDE said Former owners and tenants
of this property are now seeking or
have found new locations for businesses
in other sections of the city, creating
new real estate business, he points out.
Relates Business Conditions.
e, Mr. HYDE, in a recent radio address
feCounting changes curing the past
year, quoted from a number of organ
ization officials regarding business con-
ditions in various lines.
John A. Petty. secretary of the Wash
ington Real Estate Board, reported that
speculative tendencies of a year and
half ago showed recession. The rental
situation. he said. improved consider
ably, and new facilities and services
were introduced in homes and apart
ment houses.
Rufus S. Lusk, secretary of the Oper-
alive Builders Association, reported
that there was considerable relative
increase in the number of apartments
constructed during the year.
During the past year virtually 70 per
cent of all new building was in the
apartment class, while the correspond
ing figure for 1927 was So per cent.

industries and the important part
which they played in the business lie
of the city has not been generally
realized" Mr.. Hyde said. In 1928 we
were surprised to learn that local IN
dustries produced goods valued at more
! than So, 900 900. The Census Bureau
now is collecting the 1927 figures and
! through E. K. Ellsworth the chamber
! has received a preliminary report which
| shows that Washington's industries in
1927 produced $90,279276 worth OF
manufactured goods. or $6,702,450 more
than the 1925 figure. The figure. OF
course. does not include the large num-
brr of plants in nearby Maryland ana
Virginia. which would bring the grand
total for the metropolitan area to we'll
above Sl00,O00,000.
Salaries Increased.
THE enactment of the WEIGH bill
increasing the salaries of Government
employees has been another factor OF
Importance. Under this act it is esti-
mated according to John T. Doyle OF
the Civil Service Commission, that the
total increase in compensation to Gov
eminent employees will amount to about
$20.000.000. Recently 1t was announced
that requested salary increases for a
ldISG Va CliAPAOSCo Va bAAC A'u'S
Yard had been approved"
Mr.. Hyde quoted from reports of
Col John W. Oehmann, building in
spector, showing that private building
operations here during the past year
reached the total of ISL ,255,080, as
compared to the total of about $780,
300. 900 for the preceding year.
The chamber secretary also included
reports showing increased resources and
outstanding loans by building and loan
associations, in bank clearings and de-
posits in the net incomes of District
public utilities, in retail trade by local
department stores, in credit business,
together with improvement in credit
account payments: in insurance 6uSi-
