SHOOTING STAR
DISPLAY is LIKE
SCENE IN WAR
Annual Visit of PerSeidS Is
CoIorfuI Show for
World.

Bp United Press
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 12-Al-
though the man in the street may
not realize it, this old world was a
fraction heavier this morning than
it was when the early -to-bed folks
retired Monday night.
Innumerable particles of meteoric
matter were laying around in varl-
GUS parts of the globe today as the
result of the annual visitation OF
the PerseidS.
Even from downtown Philadel.-
phia, where huge electric lights m
terfered considerably with visibility,
the display was seen, and it appears
as if the stars in the northeast sec
ton of the sky went on a little
'tjag" of their own.
In many respects the shooting
stars and meteors resembled a dis
play of very lights before a big bonn
bardment on the front line in the
days of the World war.
Veterans of that conflict who
watched the Perseids Monday night
said, it was the closest thing they
had ever seen to "big night" on
the western front.
The display, astronomers say, is
caused by the earths passage
through the meteoric cloud, the de-
bris of the solar system-and while
the passage of the meteors in the
outer ether can not be seen because
they can not give off light, as soon
as the matter enters the air sur

Constipation may easily become

Guard them with particular car after

CDR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin' is a
doctors prescription for the boUels.
Tested by At years practice, it has
been found thoroughly effective in
relieving constipation and it's ills for
men, women and children Of all ages.
1t has proven perfectly safe even for
babies. Made from fresh, laxative
herbs, pure pepsin and other harmless
ingredients, it cannot grippe; will not
sicken you or weaken you; can be
used without harm as often as your
breath is bad, your tongue is coated;
whenever a headachy, bilious, gaSsy

WHEN PAIN
COMES''' @7
Two hours after eating

WHAT many call indigestion is very
often nothing but excess acidin the stomach.
The stomach nerves have been over-stim-
ulated, and food sours. The corrective is an
alkali, which neutralizes acids instantly.
The best alkali known to medical science is
Phillips Milk of Magnesia. 1t has remained
the standard anti-acid with physicians in
the so years since its invention.
One spoonful of this harmless, t~asteless
alkali will neutralize instantly many times
as much acid, and the symptoms disappear
at once. You will never use crude methods
when once you learn the efficiency of this
more pleasant way. A small bottle is
sufficient to show its merit.
Be sure to get genuine Phillips Milk of
Magnesia prescribed by physicians for
more than so years in correcting excess
acid. 25c and SOC a bottle; any drugstore.
Complete directions for its many uses, are

best steel trap that money
would buy. And he hid it in
the hollow tree.
Then he arose with the
metallic splendor of t h e
brassy sun and camouflaging
himself in the wild black
berry bushes he watched for
the show he had managed
for his sole entertainment.
He had located himself about
a hundred yards from the
pine, but he felt like a poach-
err on sacred love ground.
All was set for the tragedy
but the best laid plans of
mice and men go astray.
1t happened that, on the
morning Cattergood set the
powerful trap, Dodge be-
came suddenly i'll with fever,
and Betha appeared first at
the postoffice in time to
thrust her arm into the let
ter box before Cattergood,
running in her direction,
could scream out a warning.
The steel sang its sinister
song when the jaws closed
upon the innocent victims en-
croaching arm. A wild cry
of pain followed, a beating
and a Laundering for free
dom. The arm was caught
near the elbow and the girl
held there helpless against
the weather beaten pine, hud-
died in a swoon, the i'm
prisoned arm holding her up
right.
Cattergood, frightened,
bent over the motionless form
of the girl he loved. He re-
leased her from the trap and
loading her across his big
shoulder started for her
fathers cabin, leaving a GRIM
son trail in his wake.
When he reached his des-
tination the girl was dead.
She had bled to death.
Immediately after this Darl
Cattergood vanished. The
folk residing in the vicinity OF
the antiquated pine contend
that the timber is haunted.
Some claim to have seen his
ghost walking through the
woods as though carrying the
invisible body of pretty Betha

ASK BUILDING CODE
AS AID TO SCHOOLS
Prince Georges Authorities
See Benefit in Regulated
Construction.
BY GEORGE PORTER,
stan Correspondent OF The Star.


UPPER MARLBORO, Md, February
24.-Need Of building code in Prince
Georges County, long recommended by
the Maryland National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, is stressed
from a new angle in a statement on
school efficiency and costs mailed from
the county board Of education to school
patrons and trustees today.
The statement, by Nicholas Orem,
county superintendent of schools, holds
the lack of building restrictions one Of
the chief 'unsolved problems" of the
county school system.
Close Relationship.
cit may seem a far cry from build
ing code to school efficiency" the state
ment says, but in the last analysis
there is a close relationship. For years
Prince Georges has permitted people
of all types to come into its border,
some of them to build veritable shacks
in which to live and raise family.
This has not only attracted undesir-
able types of citizens and parents who
are willing to exploit their children, but
1t has required the furnishing of school
facilities without the taxable wealth
commensurate with the cost AS a re-
than taxable wealth. The only cure
seems to be a building code that will
prevent the erection of residences of
this character"
Other major unsolved problems are
listed by Orem as low average taxable
wealth per pupil. being $4,000 a pupil
as compared with nearly $4,000 in
Montgomery County and $50 900 in the
District of Columbia; low salary of
teachers, the average for the past year
being only 81 .194, resulting in a heavy
turnover of personnel. preventing maxi
mum efficiency. and sentiment for the
little rural school which progressive
school systems everywhere now recog-
nize as failing to meet the needs for
present day education.
Reason for Encouragement.
In addition to the unsolved problems,
the report lists several reasons for en-
couragement" 1t points out that the de-
crease in the number of county chill
dren attending Washington schools is
probably responsible for the county
having the largest increase in enroll
ment in its history last year. 1t also
notes that the number and Qualifica-
tons of the teaching corps is increasing
proportionately.
gradual reduction in overageness and
the attendance record of the county,
which was the best in the State last
year, and the cooperation of the coun-
ty commissioners, within the limits of
the taxpayers approval" in improving
