Rats don't really like cheese

except in story books"
So now you know why that trap
you set, with its generous slice
of cheese, is still empty.
However, rats dote on bacon.
At least that's what L. A. Linde-
cop, assistant sanitary inspector
for the Public Health Service,
says. And he ought to know.
He's been catching rodents for
IL years.
When Major Francis st. Austel,
director of the local Transient
Relief Bureau, decided to use
unemployed men in the Districts
war on rats, he sent for Lindecop,
the Pied Piper of Staten Island,
N. Y.
approximately 800 men will be
put to work within the next few
days catching rats. They will be
supplied with 5000 traps and IS
sides of bacon and when they
get through there won't be a rat

The rat catchers will work four
hours a day six days a week.
In pay, they will receive board

they expect to cover all parts Of
the city.

FUND WILL SPUR
D. {. BUILDING

A fund of $500.00O will be
made available to Washington
home owners for undermining
and improving their property, un-
der plan worked out by the
Board of Trade and local
bankers.
This plan, it is believed, will
do much to end inactivity locally
by furnishing work to carpenters,
painters, decorators and other
classes Of workmen, and at the
same time greatly increase the
value Of the property.
AS the plan will be worked out,
q maximum amount of $500 may
be borrowed by the home owner,
and this sum is to be repaid in
a years time with interest at 6
per cent. Payments are to be
made at a minimum of $40 a
month.
Plans call for each bank to
make a loan to its own deposi-
tors, or to a home owner who
has been Endorsed by one or
more Of its depositors.
Taxes and interest on mort
cages on the property must be
paid up if the loan is to be
granted, and two bids for the
work to be done secured and
submitted with the application
for the loan,

REPEAL ACTION
To Be RUSHED
IN MARYLAND
Method of Procedure Studied;
Congressional District
Elections Favored

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 20. Wet
leaders Of the State are laying
plans to help hasten repeal Of the
Eighteenth Amendment if the
House does the expected today
and approves the Senate action
submitting the question to the
States.
The method of procedure will
depend largely on whether Con-
gress assumes it has the power to
dictate the form of machinery
and the methods by which dele
gates to States conventions shall
be chosen.
Acting on the assumption that
Congress will leave the matter Of
calling the conventions to the
States, Willis r. Jones, deputy at
torney general, is studying plans
for procedure in Maryland.
Election Of delegates by Con-
gressional district rather than by
counties, it is asserted, would vir-
tually assure wet victory in Mary
land, as Baltimore, a wet strong
hold, would elect nearly half the
delegates and probably cast the
deciding votes for the delegates
at-large.

Religious Training
Called School Need

The Rev. DR.. Ignatius Smith,
Dominican preacher, in an ad-
dress yesterday at the Church
of the Immaculate Conception
broadcast over Station VOL,
made a plea for more religious
training in the schools. This,
he said. was desired by thou
sands who are not Catholics, but
who feel that some religious edu-
cation should be afforded by the
public schools.
He pointed out that Lutherans.
Episcopalians and Jews have
their own denominational schools.
Popular education is limited, he
declared, by reason Of its lack
of religions and moral training.

ALLEN FUNERAL
TOMORROW

Brig. Gen. James Allen, U. S. A.,
retired, who died yesterday at
Walter Reed Hospital, will be
buried tomorrow morning with
full military honors in Arlington
Cemetery. The general suffered
a stroke of paralysis, after a long
illness. Members of the family
are coming here from Philadel-
phia to attend the funeral.
General Allen was really the
father of aviation. according to
Col. c. DeForrest Chandler, who
recalled today how Theodore
Roosevelt, in 1907. helped the
signal corp get the first army
plane.
It was after the Langley trials,
when everybody, including the
Board Of Ordinance and Fortifi-
cation, laughed at flying. The
Wrights interested General Allen,
who, with Colonel Chandler, went
to the White House to see
Teddy"
There was a sum Of money
available to the President. for
which he had to give no account
ing; returned money for secret
service work in the war with
Spain.
Roosevelt said:
'Tf the plane flies Wen buy
it,"
The plane flew, in the trials at
Fort Myer, and the President did
not have to spend a cent. Con,
gress Immediately rushed to Gen
eral Allan's assistance-and thus
was born aviation.
Though this is his outstanding
work, General Allan received the
distinguished service cross for gal
lantry in the. war with Spain for
going out in a small boat and cut
ting a cable, shutting off Santiago
from the outside world.

For Hard Coughs or
Colds That WOrryYou

help Tor coughs or colds that worry you.
1t combines seven helps in one-the best
helps known to science. It is for quick
relief, for safety.
But careful people, more and more,
use it for every cough that starts. No
one knows where a cough may lead. No
one can tell which factor will do most.
That depends on the type of cold.
Creomulsion costs a little more than
lesser helps. But it means the utmost
help. And it costs you nothing if it fails
to bring the quick relief you seek. Your
druggist guaranteesit. Useit for safety's
sake.
