METER SUIT

The Public Utilities Commission
will stand pat on It's recent ruling,
which authorized the Potomac Elec-
trio Power Company to refuse to
sell service where sub-metering is
practiced, Ralph B. Fleharty, peo-
pies counsel, said yesterday.
Answers to the suit instituted
Tuesday in the District Supreme
Court against the Utilities Commits
sion and the power company to re-
strain them from executing the anti.
sub-metering order are in the course
of preparation and the commission
is prepared to fight to maintain its
right to issue such regulation.
The individual who goes into the
business Of sub-metering Is imme.
diately in the utility line, the COM
mission contends, and is thereby
subject to any and all regulations
the commission may make in regard
to sale Of power.
The practice, it Is claimed, is
taking business from the power com.
pany by the individual who buys
the current at a low rate and sells
it to his tenants at the same rate
the company charges the individual.
II some service were rendered by
the persons engaged in sub-meter-
ing, the condition would be changed,
the commission holds. Even under
such circumstances, they doubt IL
it could be shown the individual was
rendering a service that would
justify his selling power at a rate
higher than that paid by himself,

VA. HORSE SHOW
DATE |SF|XED
FOR MAY Il

FRONT ROYAL, Va, May g.
The seventh annual horse show OF
the Front Royal Remount Depot
will be held in the show ring at the
Remount Depot beginning at 10
o'clock on May IL. The show will
last most of the day with an hours
| intermission for luncheon.
This horse show has been mainly
kept up through private subscrip-
tions Of civilian friends Of the Army
interested in the future welfare Of
the horse through the breeding
scheme prescribed by Congress and
carried out by the Quartermaster
Corps of the Army.
Particular attention is being given
to the breeding classes for outside
entries. In the past these entries
have been small but have shown a
healthy increase from year to year
and have created much interest.
Keep Stations
Approximately IS stations. per
year are placed in Virginia by the
Quartermaster Corps, and an aver.
age Of 40 colts per year are pro.
duced from each stallioh.
Owners of colts in the immediate
locality have always responded in
entering horses that they have
owned and it is expected that en-
tries will be drawn in the future
from owners of colts, living further
away.
Attention is also being given to
the classes for depot horses, the
property of the Government. These
classes are filled from depot-raised
animals. Comparison Of the differ.
ent ages will be Of much value, as
it will illustrate the breeding plan
prescribed by Major B. F. Cheat
ham, the Quartermaster General,
who has direct charge OF the breed
ing scheme.
Experiments have been carefully
carried out at the Front Royal Re.
mount Depot in order to determine
properly the methods OF producing
class Of riding horses that will
bring greater returns to the farmer
for his product, and will place bet
ter horses in the hands Of those
who ride them, insuring a fine type
Of riding horse for use Of the Gov
eminent in times Of emergency.
Add Two Classes
Two classes for broodmares and
foals have been added this year
in an attempt to illustrate to breed.
ers the proper method of breeding,
conditioning, and feeding the mare
and raising the foal to a salable
age.
This horse show starts the horse
show season in Virginia and comes
the Saturday after the close Of the
important Point to Point races held
in Maryland and Virginia. Every
effort Is made by the authorities

Lions DO CAPERS
FOR EVENING AND
DANCE AWAY HOUR
Ladies Night Is Turned Into
Vaudeville by Talented
Funmakers Of Club

Lion entertaining talent turned
ladies' night into vaudeville at the
Elks hall Monday evening, when sing
erS, testers and dancers of the club
combined In a program Of STUNNING
stunts.
After the burlesquerie, the stage
and curtain were removed and the
remainder Of the evening was de-
voted to dancing. At midnight q
buffet lunch was served, while the
dancing went on till an early morning
hour.
DR.. F. B. Strauss was director Of
the show. Hazel Johnson's orchestra
took part In the musical section Of the
program and then furnished the
rhythm for the hundred pair of feet
which glided over the waxed floor for
the remainder of the evening.
Such talent as Webb Bayliss, Bis
narck's splendid tenor: Dave Sl1ipley
and Fred Peterson. the club come
dians; and the Eions quartet, Henry
Halverson, E. O. Bailey, and Peterson
and chipley, were conspicuous in the
doings in front Of the curtain.
One of the best stunts was the box
ing match between Raymond Mad
dock and Dave Swantey, aged s.
Each weighs 68 pounds, and they put
Oh four fast rounds with the mitts.
while the Lions and guests roared
with laughter as they slipped around
on the polished floor, landing let's
and uppercuts.
Another feature that drew several
recalls was a dancing number by Cora
Marie Strauss, Irma Happle and
Roland Mcintyre. This was stepped
off in dancing uniform and was a
real piece Of terpsichorean art.
One Of the surprises. of the evening
was a piano number by Ruth Freiss,
q schoolgirl, who played difficult Sc
lections with the skill of a profess
siorial.
Webb Bayliss did blackface song
act in imitation of AL Jolson and
sang and sang to repeated recalls.
Henry Halverson was the otter tenor
star Of the program.
One catchy number included Cora
Marie Strauss, Webb Bayliss, r. II.
Crane, and doll in a babycoach.
This was one of the comedy hits of
the evening. Another was Abe Toll
chinsky In song and clog number.
The two comedians, Dave Shipley
and Fred Peterson, as Val and Tine.
wc!l made up, put on combination of
1ests and songs, DR.. G. D. Dursema
gave monologue on Marriage" the
Lions quartet sang some numbers.
and Bill Doty and E. o. Bailey staged
a schoolboy burlesque that grew fun
nier toward the end, till it brought
forth the characteristic Lions roar.
A grand ensemble Of the particle
pants concluded the program as it
had begun, in chorus of song.
The hall had been decorated with
valentine hearts and the stage was
marked off with bottle-and- candle
footlights. DR.. Dursema manipulated
9 spotlight during the program, and
In pauses as the participants prepared
for appearance DR.. Strauss read RI
morous ads embodying jests at the ex-
pense of various business members.
Nearly the full club membership
was present and they brought their
wives and cweethearts, SO that 122
persons were on hand for the dancing
that closed the evening.
