THE literary field In Washington covers -
much territory that the entire ground can
not be covered In limited space, for Washington
has had so many talented writer's of its own, In
addition to the celebrated ones who have just
paid Us a visit or two. For instance, there u
joaquin Miller, Poet of the Sierras," who did
newspaper work here In Washington and lived
in the Miller log cabin which was later moved
to Rock Greek Park To Mrs. Southworth, tho
writer has given much space heretofore, and 50
has he spoken Of Charles Dickens two visits
here. And this reminds him Of letter he re-
oeived last June from distinguished Washing
tonian who as a boy attended one of Dickens
Lectures In old Carroll Hail. then on G street,
between Ninth and Tenth streets. The letter
follows: .rr
Dear Mr.. Proctor:
'I was interested in your Dickens article IN
last Sundays Star, and especially in your refer
ence to the reading by Dickens of the Christ
mas Carol on his second visit to Washington in
1858. My father took me q boy Of 1O) to that
reading One incident of the occasion stands
out distinctly in my memory. When the re-
formed and pentent Scrooge tells the small boy
to buy for him the big Christmas turkey, the
boy exclaims: 'Walk-er! Dickens shot out with
emphasis this British slang word of that era,
expressing complete and indignant credulity,
and his sharp exclamation caused q dog snug
gled into the audience to bark vigorously as II
in response. The audience laughed and Dick
ems laughed with them"
OF course, as said before, this Is barely skim
ming the surface Of very big field, and the
writer knows 1t, but he hopes later on to return
10 the subject.

Knocked Pork Warming Issued

HE use Of pork products which always in
creaseS with the advent of cold weather has
brought . renewal of the warning to the public
to be certain that any fresh pork used be
thoroughly cooked in order that all danger Of
trichinosis be removed.
According to q report received recently by the
Bureau of Animal Industry, two persons became
seriously III and one died as a result Of eating,
at party q mixture of raw ground-up pork
and beef The purchase was made at q local
butcher shop in large Eastern city. The Gus
tom OF eating certain pork products raw is not
widespread in this country but is fairly COM

The cause of the illness and death was
trichinosis a disease of humans caused by small
threadwormS known trichinae. These para
sites occur occasionally in the muscle tissue Of
pork. When infested pork is eaten by human
beings in a raw or insuficiently cooked state,

where they grow and multiply. Ultimately the
new generation invades the muscles of their
human victims and produces the disease.

Butter Price LeveI

THE price Of butter. which has risen since
! last Summer has finally come to q steady
level because of the tariff margin. At present
the import duty on butter is IA cents q pound.
The price in New York is now 13 cents above
the price in London. One more cent rise in
price and the full margin would be used up,
thus inviting the importation of butter. Should
such situation eventuate, the result might be
such an influx of foreign butter that prices once
more would slump.
Because of this threat, It Is considered i'm
probable that prices will go any higher unless
the London price also should start to rise.

Ann trailing beside Allan, listening
to his expert comments.
Allan Vincent was in love with
her. Or was he? If he were, it was
different type of love than Tony
had offered her. Tony's love had
lacked stability, but it was not all
emotion. Ann had the feeling that
there was something impersonal
about Allan Vincents feeling for
her. 1t lacked devotion, yet it was
not light emotion, either. His hand
had shaken as he lifted a cigaret.
His eyes had smoIdered.
He was starved for affection.
Lonely, isolated. That must be it.
Oh. why had this happened to
her? Now everything would be
changed. All the friendliness would
be gone. She would feel seIf-con-
sc1ous, constrained. Perhaps if
would be better to go away.
