Bank Loan.

The firemen's parade committee
made an appeal today to the citizens
of Washington to raise fund to make
up deficit caused by the awarding OF
cash prizes in the competitions. The

which was borrowed from bank. The
deficit approXimates $500.
It was explained by E. J. Murphy

it was planned to raise sufficient funds
to cover the expenditure by the erec-
ton and sale of seats along PennSyl-

that permission for the placing of seats
along the Avenue must come from
Congress and since Congress was not In
session such permission could not be
secured
Arrangements had been made with
the American League Base Ball Park

that there was any objection to their
erection.

CAPPER FOR ACTION
ON INSURANCE CODE
One of Most Important Issues
Awaiting Decision by Congress,
Senator Declares.

The proposed new code of insurance
laws is regarded by Chairman Capper
of the Senate District committee as one
the the most important local matters
awaiting the attention Of Congress ut
tine coming regular session.
Senator Capper made 1t clear today
that he believed the present Congress
should take final action on this cues
ton Of an insurance code, which has
been debated in the committee en- Cap
itol Hill for number of years, without
conclusion.
Senator Capper said he thought
Washington was behind the States in
the matter Of regulation of insurance
and expressed the hope that the code
which he introduced earlier in the spe-
cial session at the request of Supt. of
Insurance Baldwin would be pushed
vigorously by his committee at the De-
cember session.

Winning Him Back
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 18 years old and have
been going out with a fellow
who is a year older than I
am. He certainly is a wonder
full fellow and I have met his
mother and have been to his
home a few times. He has
also been to mine.
He saw me out with another
fellow and he has never been
the same. I used to see him
three and four nights a week
and since I've been out with
this other fellow I have not
seen him more than two or
three nights. He is always on
my mind and I'd do anything
to win him back again. I
know that he doesn't go with
any girls. I'd give anything
If you'll tell me how to get
him back. RAYNETTE.
Had you promised your friend
not to go about with anyone
but him, Raynette? II so, you
owe him an apology, not for
having other friends as well
as himself, but for breaking
your word to him. In sthat

the coffee is pure it will remain
on top of the water; if not, the
water will become brown in
color.
To enrich the earth around

ton consisting of $50 grains Of

When the scissors are dull,

If the leather seats and backs
