DURING the Civil War, from July, 1862, to
March 2, 1863, the Fourth Presbyterian
Church was used as a military hospital, the
pews being covered over with boards. On the
adjoining lot to the north John Mcleod kept
school for many years
This famous pedagogue of bygone days, ac-
cording to Mr.. Bryan, was of Irish extraction
and first opened school in the year 1903 on
the west side of Eighth street, short dis
lance north of I street southeast and oppo-
site the Marine Barracks, later moving to d
street, between Third and Fourth streets in
the same section. After the war of 1925
Mr.. Mcleod sold his school property near the
navy yard and erected school building known
as Central Academy, with residence at the
southwest corner of Tenth and G streets north
west, on the site now occupied by the building
of woodward & Lothrop, and at an earlier
date by st. Vncent's Orphan Asylum
This property, We are told, was leased in 1916
by John P. Van Ness to John Mcleod for
SO years at an annual rental of Sis with
the right to purchase at any time at the rate

membered by many. erected about 1910,
and enlarged and improved in 1860.
The congregation of this church was organ
lied about 1923 and the building was re-
moved many years ago. A note before the
writer gives the removal year as 1885, but the
picture accompanying this article tells another
story for at this date Freund was occupying
this building. and Herold the tailor was in the
block to the north BY 1899 Freund had given
up this building and George w. Herold was
occupying it as the sign shows. However, it
does seem the church had been removed before
the last date.
The city directories show that Rev. John
Cross Smith was the pastor there at least from
1843 to 1878, when he was succeeded by his
assistant, Rev. Joseph T. Kelly, who arose
from sexton in 1860 to that position. Rev.
Kelly appears to have been still the pastor in
1899, with William Curseen sexton. During
his pastorship the Rev. Smith resided at 91O
New York avenue northwest while the Rev.
Kely's home was at SIG Fourth street.

I N connection with the writer's story in which
reference made to Mrs. Peckham's
school, and at another time to the arrest by
Officer West of President Grant for fast driv-
ing, published shortly before the close of the
old year, an interesting letter was received
from DR.. LIewellin Eliot of 4107 Sheridan ave-
nue. south, Minneapolis, Mimi which only
goes to show that The Star goes as far-or al
most as far-as the radio. DR.. Eliot was once
a resident of Washington, as his letter states
and was quite likely a native besides. But
maybe you would like to read his interesting
letter, which follows almost in its entirety:
November 81, 1929.
MY Dear Mr.. Proctor:

infection makes fat qIonds overuefive

Dandruf is caused by overactivity of the fat glands of the scalp-which expel greasy whitish substance known as sebum.
 This overactivity is the result of infection, many dermatologists claim. They advise i'm mediate treatment. Whatever the cause, this activity should be checked lest the condition continue and cause eczema, falling hair, and badness.

Great dermatologists declare that normal, healthy scalp is extremely rare. Some go as far as to say that there is no scalp that is not troubled in some way, to some degree.

Results achieved quickly

You simply use Listerine as part of the shampoo, or independent of it. Douse it on the scalp full strength and massage vigorously.
 Keep the treatment up, using little olive oil if the scalp is excessively, dry.
 You will be delighted to see how quickly you get results. Frequently loose dandruff disappears after one or two treatments. Some. times however, if the case is stubborn, week or two and perhaps more will be required, Lambert Pharmacal Company, St. Louis, Mo.
