order read:
"TO all commanding officers:
"You will instruct members
of your command assigned to
street intersections for the regu-
lation Of traffic at both perma-

to give special attention to the
safety Of pedestrians, and will
not change the movement of
traffic until pedestrians have
reached place of safety, either
on the sidewalk or D safety zone
provided for that purpose.
"You will also instruct mem.
bers of your command to give
special attention to vehicles
making right or left turns, as
pedestrians have the right-Of-
way over vehicular traffic. You
will instruct members of your
command to pay particular at

PLANS SPEEDED
FOR BOY SCOUT
JAMB0REE

Accelerated activities in plan
ming for the first national JAM
boree Of the Boy Scouts Of Amer.
lea, to be held in the National
Capital August Il 10 80, are evi.
dent in the wake of the visit to
Washington this week Of Lord
Robert Baden-PowelI, founder Of
the scout movement.
The jamboree, which will cele-
brate the twenty-fifth anniversary
of the founding Of the Boy Scouts,
promises to be a great spectacle.
Thirty thousand Boy Scouts
from q thousand troops will gather
here in q virtual city which Is
under construction on either side
of the Mount Vernon Boulevard
between the Arlington Memorial
Bridge and Highway Bridge. They
will come from every corner of
the nation, and will be Joined
here by scouts representing nearly
every country of the world.
., Complete City
The "Jamboree City" will be
q complete community, with it's
own water-Some million gallons
a day-to be drawn from the
city's supply through five miles
of especially laid pipes, 10 miles
of telephone lines and a miniature
exchange with instruments scat
tered among q hundred official
buildings, 80 post offices, an
amateur radio station to be set
up by some of the older boys and
even a newspaper published by
the scouts themselves.
There will be no dishes to wash.
Paper plates and cups will be
used, and will be burned after be-
ing used.
One hundred thousand meals
will be served each day. Three
hundred cooks and helpers will
be on hand to perform this gigan-
tic task.
When the menu calls for meat
and potatoes, for instance, $4,000
pounds of meat and 80 bushels Of
potatoes will be prepared. Thirty
thousand quarts of milk will be
the order to the milkman each
day, and the baker will get a U.s..
000-pound order daily.
: Flags to Be Signals
There will be no bugle calls to
announce meals or bedtime. All
the signalling will be done by
hosting flags.
The camp will be different from
the usual tented city. Instead of
the drab khaki tents, there will
be q riot of colors, with each
group selecting it's own type of
hut. For instance, the Western
group has decided to put up a
kaffir twig hut. Besides, there
will be exhibits, such as that con.
templated by the North-North'
western units, which will have dis
plays Of Red River oxcarts, birch
bark canoes and dog s1eds and
pack saddles. This group also
will exhibit plant life of the Red
RIVeT valley, golQ mining equip
ment and Indian relics.
March in Review
During their stay, the scouts
will go on tours of the historic
spots in and near the city, &C.
companied by trained guides
Grand reviews, camping excur'
sions, hikes, "pow-wcws." camp
fires, songs, pageantry and other
features will be part Of the Today
program. For these entertain.
ments a huge arena will be con
structed.
On August 81, when the jam
boree officially opens, the scouts
will march along Constitution
Avenue for a grand review. The
music will be provided by 80
scout bands and 20 drum corps.
The parade will end at the Ell
lipse, where it is expected a Presi'
dental welcome will be given.

who was just at the age when she might
do something crazy like marry boy
who had nothing to get married on;
Dan Lahey, who ever so often renewed
his offers of marriage. There were times
when she thought seriously of marrying
Dan. She genuinely liked him, missed
him when he didn't come for his regu-
lar calls. He was a good scout, had
good business, could give her a good
home But there was the Kid They
had always been together like sisters.
She might not like it.
T WAS fun to go places with the Kids
friends and to have them call her
Belle. It made her feel young and
she wanted to feel young always. So
she and the Kid had gone to movies,
dances and parties together; that is,
until last night, when the Kid had de-
serted her. If she only knew with whom
the Kid had been! If it had been Johnny
Connors she wouldn't mind. Johnny
was nice boy; %, good-looking, but
not too much SO, ambitious and actually
in possession of job. Yet she knew it
wasn't Johnny, for he hadn't been around
for long time. She was afraid the Kid
didn't care very much about him.

one thirty you'd better step on it," said
the Kid suddenly. cts most that now.

a pal to her, same as she'd been to the
Kid Ever since the Kid had developed
sense, which had been at surprisingly
early age, they had done everything to-
gether-been on trips and parties just
like siSters-that is, until last night.
Only last night the Kid had lied to her;
had said she was going to study with a
girl friend and had come home at half
past twelve, defiantly refusing to give
any information.
After storming to no avail, Belle had
lain silent and awake in one twin bed,
with the Kid presumably asleep in the
other. Relations had been strained at
breakfast and were no better now.
She had been a good mother to the
Kid, darned if she hadn't. True, she
hadn't been so hot about the Kid at first,
for the Kid had been rather in the ma
ture of a surprise. It had happened back
in 1915 when Bill Cameron said he was
sailing the next week for England and
was going to enlist. First, however, he
told her he'd always been crazy about
her and would she marry him? The war
wasn't going to last long and it would
be nice to think he had a wife at home
waiting for him. Before Bill sailed they
were secretly married. He never came
back. A month after he left Belle dis
covered to her horror that the Kid was
coming.
She went back to her job in the beauty
parlor. BY saving, she managed to buy
a partnership in the business and later
to buy out her partner.
Now there was so much on her mind
business, which was terrible; the Kid.

alike, except that one was little shorter,
more than little slighter, little softer,
a little weaker. Here's where we split
up, I guess" said Belle lamely. "See
you at supper"
The Kid traced a Semi-circle with the
toe of a tiny blue pump. Then she
Strengthened her shoulders. Her lips
drew themselves into thin line.
"I've got a date for tonight" she said
huskily. II won't be home for supper"
Il see," said Belle, duly.
"At $780," said the Kid.
"At 6:30" Belle repeated mechanically.
IF you're going out tonight" she added,
casually, you ought to do something
about your hair. 1t looks like the devil.
I noticed it when you were trying on
hats. Why don't you come up and have
shampoo and finger the last of the
afternoon?"
The Kid looked up hesitantly.
1T don't look so bad," she said. "If
have time I'll wash it myself at home"

easily, when you can come up to the
shop and have it done in no time. Come
just before 5-say quarter to-and some
one can take you on anyway"
Maybe I'll come" the Kid said with
little gulp. Maybe I will about S.

won't you?" she added.
"Probably," answered Belle careleSSly.
"Well, I guess I'd better be moving
along"

"How's this strike you?" asked Belle

the Kid graphically. "The Flower Shows

The Kid still had an edge on, thought
Belle, gloomily.

"It fits madame grand" murmured
Miss Moriarty, the sales girl, with forced

knowledge of Trees Held
Important to All Classes

knowledge of the characteristics of
various trees is just as important to
the butcher, baker and candlestick
maker as it is to the farmer, and even
those engaged in agricultural pur-
suits are not any too familiar with
these particular traits, according to
Walter w. Simonds. forester for the
University of Maryland Extension
Service.
Mr.. Simonds points out that few
persons will disagree that the average
farmer should know that locust makes
better fence posts than tulip poplar
and that hickory makes stronger tool
handles than red oak. Yet there are
many less obvious facts than these
which might save dollars and even
human lives if they were better known
by the average man in the street.
For example, practically all people
appreciate the fact it is considered
dangerous to stand under tree dur
ing an electrical storm. Few, how
ever, are aware of the fact that not
all trees are susceptible to being struck
by lightning. Recent investigation
has shown that oaks, elms, pines, pop
lars, willows and ashes, in the order
ramed, are most susceptible. to being
struck. On the other hand, there is

Farms

October more than 2,290 applica-
lions which involved requests for
,'nds to purchase farms were received
Oy these institutions. The total
emount requested was $85O0,O00.
~ Last session Congress gave the
III I'm Credit Administration the job
S4 assisting worthy, qualified tenants
Ind other Young farmers in financing
the purchase of farms by making it
4 possible to use part of the Land Bank
Commissioners funds for this pur-
pose. Previously commissioners loans
were confined to ref1nancing existing
Indebtedness.
The normal movement of young
men toward farm ownership was de-
Isyed by the depression" continued
Gov. Myers. Many young farmers
and tenants had had little chance for
saving and many of those who had
accumulated funds were unwilling to
hazard them because of doubt or al
most certain loss. With improved
conditions, the Farm Credit Admins
sTation is now in a position to assist
young men who would become farm
owners. Some savings are necessary
for a young man to buy farm, with
reasonable safety to himself and to
the institution that finances him. 1t
Is necessary also for him to have ex-
perience in farming, for him to have
character and a reputation for thrift.
When these things are present and he
has made some savings, we are able
to finance or to assist in financing
the purchase of farms to put these
young men in the farming business.
We can go as far as any financial
agency can wisely go in assisting
properly qualified young men to be-
eome operating farm owners.
Applicants for loans for purchase
OF farms do not have to confine their
purchases to properties owned by the
land bank" Myers explained. How
sever, the land banks are selling farms
which they have acquired through the
gears and the increased sales reflect
an improved farm real estate market.
1t is not a boom market, but the rec
ords of sales of farms by the land
banks show decided upturn since
June, 1884. During that month the
banks sold 224 properties whereas
since then during each of the three
months, December, 1884, and April
and August, 1885, the banks sold ITO
odd farms. Sales during the first
eight months of this year were 5,568,
compared to 2,792 farms during the
same period last year."

horse chestnut having been struck by
lightning.
In planting trees around the house
or along the street or sidewalk it is
well to remember that some trees
cause more dirt and litter than others.
Red naples, in addition to being short
lived, are susceptible to breakage dur
ing heavy sleet and snowstorms.
Horse chestnut burs and nuts form
another nuisance. and the slippery
catkins of poplar trees provide men,
ace to pedestrians and traffic in the
Spring of the year.
Last, but by no means least, home
owners are warned to exercise care
in the selection of NAPLES as shade
trees. 1t is pointed out that, while
this particular tree is extremely popu-
lar, only or out of 10 or more
indigenous varieties are satisfactory.
