PORTRAIT
BY ANNE CAMPBELL

u HER sweet eyes there is the
look OF one
Who has said many prayers, so
soft aud true
Is her expression Golden as
the sun
Is her young heart Her hands
have learned TO do
For others early. Baby brother
turns
To her for kisses and a healing
phrase.
Scarce more than child herself, her
patience earns.
Her mothers gratitude, her IA
theirs praise
For her, one of family Of ten,
There is no time for selfish
thoughts or dreams.
The morning dawns. Her toll be
gins again.
The busy hours advance; the first
star CLEANS,
And evening comes, with rest for a
tired saint,
Whose day has passed with no

PRESERVES" URGED
FOR CIVIL SERVICE
Roper Says "Civi|ian West
Point" Would Supply
Personnel.

A civil service reserve corps" in
schools and colleges from which Fed
eral, State and municipal govern
ments might draw personnel equipped
to serve in executive capacities is
advocated by Secretary of Commerce
Roper.
He made this suggestion in letter
to E. Claude Babcock, president of
the American Federation of Govern
ment Employees, in connection with the
National Civil Service week observ-
ance fostered by the federation Janu-
ary 1919 to focus attention on the
merit system.
I'VE must be awakened to the truth
that our greatest need is not for
external defense, as important as that
is, but for internal defense, the
equipping of people with an adequate
understanding of and appreciation
for democratic institutions and for
keeping actions co-ordinated in ef-
forts to preserve such institutions,
Secretary Roper said.

portance of external defense, but we
are not adequately awake to the needs
of this better internal defense, West
Point and Annapolis have functioned
wonderfully in preparing for the
former; we need now to create civic
courses in our schools and colleges
and build a reserve corps of executives
to be recorded with the Civil Service
Commission or in the United States
Bureau of Education, list of eligibles
on which those in authority in mu-
nicipal, State and Federal govern
ments could draw with confidence.

with regard to the attitude of eligibles

Some idea Of the preventive work

1T is only too true that this sana-

Its limit is $50 beds.
Still very much may be done for

PLAN FOR SUBWAY
Senate and House District
Committees to Get 0efi-
mite Proposal.

A definite plan for construction OF
subyays for street cars under Pennsyl-
yania avenue with a line under Con-
necticut avenue to a point above Du-
pont Circle will be submitted to all
members of the Senate and House
District Committees by Peoples Coun-
sci William A. Roberts.
Using rough estimates now avail
able. he placed the cost at not to
exceed s5,OOO,0O0 for building of tubes
over a stretch Of some "a miles.
The peoples counsel announced last
night he is convinced the tube con-
struction to be the basic element es-
sential to any early satisfactory Solu-
ton of the problem of traffic conges-
ton and the inability of the mass
transportation system to carry peak
loads.
Will Organize Groups.
He plans to organize citizens as
sociations and other groups in de-
termined drive to obtain approval and
financing for the projects.
Such plans would fall within the
scope of the lf-hquidating project
requirements of either the Public
Works Administration or the Presi-
dents new plan for a national work
relief program, Roberts contended.
If financing does not come from
these sources. he believes some other
means should be found because OF
the need and the benefits to be gained
He has in mind amortization over a
period of so years.
Roberts has written to the Boston
Transit Commission for estimates OF
the cost of construction of double
track tube of type suitable to Wash
ington After this is received he will
forward his plans to the congressional
committees promptly. he said. He
will send the data also to the District
Commissioners. the Public Utilities
Commission and the P. w. A. ano

Connection With Circle.
He proposes subway starting
under Pennsylvania avenue just to the
east of its intersection with Constl.
tuition avenue and running to point
near TWenty-first and E streets, witt
the outlet on Twenty-flrst street. From
that point there would be a surface
connection with Washington Circle
for a turn-around or for turning car:
either vest to Rosslyn or east to th'
city.
The Connecticut avenue branch
would come to the surface approx
mately one block north of Dupon
Circle. The plan would be to remove
the street car tracks on Connection
avenue below this point and also or
