four younger children spent part of the
Summer in camp. About six months
ago the father lost his job and spent
two months searching ,frantically for
another. He now has a much better
place and Is looking forward to ad-
vancement. His crippled sister does
what she can to help him.
The appeal: Left by her bigamist
husband with the problem presented by
her eight small children, colored
mother has not allowed herself to be-
come embittered. Although home
making is of necessity her sole profes-
sion, she has made a great success OF
it. The children's whole future depends
on their happy home life"
She was provided with $26 a week
and since then has learned to forget the
unhappiness caused by her marriage
to a man whom she found to have been
already married after she had borne
him eight children. A kind attorney
offered her aid and she was able not
only to have her marriage voided, but
the children were given legal status
All the children except the youngest
are In school.
Those are the entries In the ledger
of the men of good will. Some of the
profits are still ION paper" some of the
investments have begun to pay divi-
dends, but there can be no doubt about
the net increase in citizenship capital
In IA investments there has not been
a definite loss.

FOR u. S. PAINTER.
American Spends 7 Months
Trying to Get Pontift to
Sit for First Portrait.
BY Cable to The Star.

BY Gable to The Star.
ROME, Italy, October 10.-Pore Plus
notorious aversion to posing for his
portrait has finally been overcome by
Prof vladimir Shamberk, Bohemian
American artist of Okauchee, Wis.
After two months of work In the
Vatican, Prof. Shamberk has finally
completed a life-sized portrait of the
Pontiff, which he was commissioned TO
execute by Right Rev. Maria Francis
Gus Janssens, abbot-general of the Cis-
terrain Order in America, with head
quarters here.
1t took Prof Shamberk from January
to August to secure permits sion to work
in the Vatican, and when he did he
found it almost impossible to obtain
poses of the Pope Finally, by setting
up his easel in the Sala Del Foconi,
Just outside the papal apartments, he
managed to secure two-minute poses
almost every day during papal au-
diences.
This is the first portrait Of the Pope
taken from life. 1t will repoSe in the
Chapel of Our Lady of Spring Bank in
the Cistercian Monastery at Okauchee.

TOW TO sLEEP...l
on a train Tor anywhere eIse)

You can head-off a headache by
taking these tablets, or nip cold in
the bud. And relieve sore throat
with one good aspirin gargle. But
read the proven directions, and be
ready to end more serious suffering:
neuralgia's awful ache: neuritic or
rheumatic pain; sciatica, lumbago:
muscular pains. Aches and ailments
that once kept people home are all
forgotten half-an-hour after taking
Bayer Aspirinl
Every druggist has Bayer Aspirin
in little box for your purse, bottle
for your bag, or a bigger one for the
medicine cabinet. If you wish to save
money, you can buy the genuine
tablets by the hundred. You don't
want the limitations at any price!
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-10-11

You can't go to sleep until your
nerves are at rest-on the train or
in your own bed at home. Sheer
WEAKNESS often brings some little
nerve-nagging ache or pain. Slight as
it is, it can spoil your nights rest.
That's the time to remember
Bayer Aspirin. Take one tablet -
and go to sleep.
1t always works! If you doubt it,
you haven't tried it. If you think
there's the least harm in it, you
haven't asked your doctor. Bayer
Aspirin is quite harmless. 1t does not
depress the heart. 1t does not upset
the stomach. 1t does nothing except
stop the pain. SO take it as often as it
can spare you an uncomfortable hour.

by some invisible power; and his
fellow warriors we're spellbound so

Associate producers and stage directors often are curious to know why I always accept engagements to supervise the nroduction of To- cal revues and to school amateurs for the musical comedy stages, when there Is 50 much work avail able in New York. Contrary to general belief. there is always more work than directors in New York, principally because of the many sacrifices one must make be- fore they become a recognized
 For the past twelve years have been associated with the Loew Theaters, Inc, as director of innur1erable vaudeville revues and musical comedy offerings, and at this late stage of the game, many of my colleagues find 1t ex- ceedingly dif{icult, 1t seems, to un- deratand why I should drop pro fsssional work to come to city like Waterbury, as an example, to stage an amateur show.
 My hest reason is myself and my early history in America. No one appreciates the hard tasks that confront even the professional, let alone the amateur. in their persist ent etldeavor to develop their tall ent. I can vividly recall my start as a dancer, and the hard, bitter, struggle 1t was to reach the top. And that Is why 1 like to work with amateurs, and lend them a helping hand.
 Another pertinent and very im- portant reason is that work with amateurs Is deeply and sincerely interesting. Among a professional company If you are lucky you may have two or three who are ambi- tious and seek to attain greater heights. The majority. however have their own ideas as to how re. vues should be staged and 1t Is nc easy task to overcome these sell thought production plans.
 With an amateur group 1t Is en- tirely different. There you have the very essence of ambition. There you have a group of young people who are striving to their utmost te succeed, to do the unusual and tt attract attention. With amateur.

SLAUGHTER HOUSE | AT WATERTOWN
Local Health Board Wants Extension of Time to
 Open One Here
OFFICIALS HUSTLING


 Last minute appeals were made to-day to pr Edwin Reade of Wa tertown in an endeavor to get an extension of time until January 1, 1882, at the slaughter house in Wa tertown pending the establishment of one in Waterbury.
 If the appeal Is not successful, Dr Peter T. Keeley, milk and food inspector, will have workers "rig up" a temporary place for the butchers while g new one is being sought.
 No site has been decided upon as yet, but when the site Is picked and the work of installing the nec- essary ice boxes, chilling floors storage bins and the like, head quarters will be made in e tempo. rary slaughter house probably in Oakville.
