OLDEST OF j. s.
WORKERSQUITS

Edmund E. Schreiner, superin-
tendent of the redemption divi-
sion in the office of the Comp
troller of the Currency, Treasury
Department, and the oldest en-
ploye in the Government service
both in the point of age and
years of service, was retired to-
day after 81 years of active work.
Born in Gettysburg, Pa, in
1847, he was brought to this city
year later. and has lived here
since =,
In 1858 he started work in the
commissary of the War Depart
ment, then located near the
Washington Monument.
On the night that President
Lincoln was shot, Schreiner was
acting as an usher at Ford's The
ater but left before the shooting
He began work in the Treas
ury Department. in 1867 as an
office boy in the office of .Hiland
r. Hulburd. the third Comptrol-
Ter of the Currency.
Schreiner says that until 1870
old banknotes we're burned in a
building that stood south of the
Treasury. This method had to
be stopped because of the waste
and because it was found that
some of the bills were drawn
from the furnace through the
chimney and picked up by lucky
passersby. The notes now are
chopped by a machine and the
material can be used over again.
In the last 10. years Schreiner
has had five extensions on his
time.

Disgusting Pores

There's no use trying to hide
large pores, blackheadS and oily
skin behind makeup. You only
fool yourself.
Out in Hollywood they have
the recipe for a lotion that quick
ly removes flaws and makes the
skin beautiful and soft. Get 3
ounces of Orchard White from
the druggist and mix it with the
juice of lemons. You have a
full quarter-pint Of the finest
lotion.
The very minute you pat this
cooling, revivir1C lotion on the
face it gets down deep into the
skin and cleans out the dirt that
Settles in large pores. It removes
blackheads. closes the pores and
quickly makes the skin smooth,
good-looking and youthfully fresh.
You'll notice, too, that the skin
is no longer oily and Precipitation
doesn't bother you any more.
Now if you want a smooth.
soft, beautiful skin-just get 3
ounces of Orchard White from
any druggist, mix it with the
Juice Of 2 lemons and you have
the new Hollywood beauty lotion
Note: In the summer this lotion
keeps the skin free from fTeckleS
and guards against that ledthsry

SMOOT ADVANCES
Low SILVER CAUSE
Tells Engineers Responsible
ity Rests Upon "a Great
Power" He Did Not Name.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SALT LAKE CITY, October H.
Responsibility for the lowered value of
silver is blamed by Reed Smoot, chair
man of the Senate Finance Committee,
upon "a great power" which he did
not name.
In an address before the Salt Lake
Chapter of the American Institute of
Mining and Metallurgical Engineers
Monday night Senator Smoot added:
But we know that Great Britain has
tried to force gold on India. We know
that her power is such that India be-
lieves the mother country is going to
force gold on her"
There are a billion people in the
world who want silver for circulation
as currency" he added. IT have faith
that when the work of the Pittman
committee is completed and the facts
are presented to Congress, something
will happen to place silver back in its
rightfu1 place beside gold in the COM
nerce of the world"
Senator Smoot declared the proposed
international conference on silver would
be too slow in its results to be extern
sive and emphasized that I'VE are not
asking for fixed gold and silver ratio

Given Freedom From Carleton
Edward Moran at Reno.

Mrs. Margaret Pou Moran, the daugh-
Ter of Representative Edward w. Pou of
North Carolina, was granted a divorce
IN Reno, New, yesterday from Carleton
Edward. Moran, Washington broker,
whom she married January II, 1925.
Associated Press dispatches from
Reno said the papers in the case were
sealed, but that 1t was understood the
charges were mental cruelty.
A similar charge, supplemented by
charges that her husband was addicted
to use Of intoxicating liquor and was
abusive and profane in the presence of
her friends, was the basis of action
brought by Mrs. Moran IN the District
Supreme Court last December 81, in
which she sought limited divorce and
the custody of two children, four
year-old Margaret Pou Moran, and one
yesr-oad Edward William Pou Moran,
In the earlier action, Mrs. Moran
charged that her husbands use of pro-
family was so frequent that her small
daughter had learned the epithets and
repeated them. She also said he had
struck her.
The couple separated December 10
last. the District Supreme Court was
informed.
Moran, whose business address is given
as 1716 H street, has an income rang
ing between $25, 900 and $4,000 an
nually, Mrs. Moran told the court in
explanation Of request for alimony.
