 Hell spy upon our enemy. Then right back here he'll shortly be. What we think is real dangerous, he'll say was lots of fun
 Poor Scouty, though, fell in a trap. He stopped to take little nap, and several Meany Men came out and saw him on the ground.
 One whispered, "Get some rope. We'll tie this lad real tight cause he's a spy" When Scouty woke up, with a start, his hands and legs were bound.
 "Ha, ha. You will not spy on us. And don't you try to start a fuss exclaimed one of the Mean ies. You're prisoner of war" Poor Scouty knew it was no use to try and work the tight rope loose. He eyed the band of Mean ies, wondering just what was in store.

HEATING NEEDS
GET CHECK-UP

The warm spring days bring
to mind for many housewives
the task of spring cleaning with
thoughts of freshening rugs and
draperies, changing interior fur
nishings and checking over the
cellar and attic for the removal
of stored-away articles which no
longer serve a useful purpose.
Spring cleaning is an energetic
task often faced with reluctance
but something that must be
done.
May Washington home owners
are making this spring cleaning
very thorough and have put into
discard old-fashioned methods Of
house heating. They realize the
waste space required for ordi.
nary fuel storage and the dirt
and dust which it entails, to say
nothing Of the added pleasure
that one gets from the use Of
the basement as a modern recre-
alton room or cozy den.
The Washington Gas Light
Company has provided a very
helpful service for home owners
at this spring season by enabling
them to obtain a checkup on the
heating efficiency Of their homes
without obligation and learn the
benefits Of a modern automatic
gas heating plant. A corps Of
specially trained men is available
to make a complete study Of the
home from basement to roof to
determine heat losses.
These surveys take into con-
sideration the condition of the
heating plant, insulation of pipes,
radiator capacity, materials and
type of construction Of the base
ment floor, walls and roof, glass
area and infiltration due to ex'
poSure and the type of dwelling,
In each step OF this survey the
heat loss per square foot in Brit.
ish Thermal Units is determined
and the total number Of BTU's
represents the heat loss of the
home. This loss checked against
the temperatures for a normal
year (the average Of 81 years Of
Washington weather from Octo
ber through ApriD determines
the total heat loss during the
heating season and is the basis
for computing the amount OF
fuel necessary to maintain a tenn
perature of 10 degrees.
This gas heating estimate is
given to the home owner. before
he buys and is based on the
years Of experience Of about
5000 local owners Of automatic
gas heating plants.

STUDENT PEACE
RALLY FAILS

George Washington University's
long heralded anti.war demonstra-

grounds yesterday afternoon, at
tracted a lone spectator-a small
lad who contented himself with
reading a comic section.
Even the speakers who had been
expected to give stump speeches
and demonstrate their love Of
peace failed to show up.
Announcement had been made
on the school bulletin board that
speakers would harangue on anti
war subjects. Student groups pre-
dicted the demonstration would be
comparable to that which took
place in New York, where stu
dents neglected classes to attend
and were finally routed by police.
No explanation of the failure
here was forthcoming from stu
