Last Monday while l was study

sudden craving for some olives, and
so / hied myself off to the grocery
store and bought a great, big
bottle of 'em. ! played the part

so sick that / could hardly move,

to take the exam, answered the first
page of questions, and then spent
the rest of the three hours wonder
ing why the brother across from

Last Saturday night the place was
packed and everybody was whoop-
ing it up to a peppery pace. Cor
don has picture of that adorable
little son of Sally's and his, and he
is 5000 proud of it. l don't blame
him at all, because the infant is as
sweet as sugar pie.
I think I'll form a Consolation
Club for the benefit of gels whose
boy friends live out of town. This
business of waiting for letters is
bad on the nerves, hard on the
heart, and a general all-around
mess. l already have three candi-

A certain Minneapolis lady, after
getting the weekly ten and twelve

erage considerably, don't you
think?
Well, so far the two best parties
of the year, by general vote, seem
to have been the Twentieth Century

Kappa party a few weeks ago.
Maybe the Modernettes will be add
ed to the list after their first big
party at Glenwood Chalet on Mon
day evening, June II. At any
rate, the invitations are quite the
most novel that have come out for
a long, long time.

Overcrowding of the Friendship
Heights car line and opera
ton by the Capital Transit Com
PAW of one-man cars on the
Seventh Street and Eleventh
Street car lines was condemned
in a resolution offered by George
A. Warran, and adopted. Motor
men on the Eleventh Street line,
it was asserted, frequently refuse
to stop for waiting passengers at
the intersection of Clifton Street.
It was voted to ask that parking
on the south side of I Street be-
tween Thirteenth and Eighteenth
Streets be eliminated.
ZOning Plea Compromised
The question of rezoning four
lots in the 1900 block of Thir-
tenth st., and 1928 to 1884 Mass
achusetts Ave. N. w., from resi-
Dental to first commercial caused
long debate. It was finally voted
not to oppose the Thirteenth
Street change, and to oppose any
change on Massachusetts, Avenue.
F. B. Hoffman, Joe High and T. F.
Wasgatt were named to present
the resolution to the Zoning Com
mission at hearing on October 2.
Following the reading of let
ter of protest from the District of
Columbia Motor Club against a
proposal to divert revenues re-
ceived from the special two-cent
gasoline tax to other than high
way purposes, the association
voted against such change.
Resolutions were adopted reaf-
firming former request for re-
establishing the old Second police
precinct on Fifth St., and approx
ing Major Browns request for 116
additional men.

oay extended their gains and by the
end Ct the first half hour prices were
3 to 6 points above the previous
close.
Light trade buying and purchases
BY speculative interests provided the
market with a stimulant, although
after the first call business dealings
dwindled.
July sold at II.55 at the opening
and then advanced to 1l.5s, while
Oct. at 1925, Dec. at ll.33 and Jan.

The official announcement that
the cotton mills Of the country
would continue running time and
wage schedules as specified under

buying later in the morning and
prices advanced from u TO Is points.
Unfavorable showers in the west

dental chair which plays music in

while the drill bores his tooth is
being tested here.
The music. by travelling through
the bones, masks the grinding noise
and lessons wincing and cringing.
IL is done by a novel use Of the
latest bone conduction instruments,
developed originally for the deaf.
Tipped back, the patients head
contacts two plates fixed in the
headrest. They are the new sound
bone conduction plates and are at
'tached to a photograph by wires
leading into another room.
No sound is audible TO the ears.
But when the read touches the
plates they transmit the music,
clearly and perfectly, through the
bones.
Attempts to use music TO ease
dental suffering are not new. But
they have been by way Of the ears.
Sounds carried through the
bones seem TO take precedence over
those entering the ears. For this

for the Texas Centennial in 1886

Both the house and senate favor
participation IN the expoSition-the
senate already having passed the
Joint resolution-and Texas house
members feel that any opposition

the republican from the Bay state.
Martin is particularly interested
In this observance OF Texas indie
pendence from Mexico but has ex-
pressed belief 100000 Is not in
line with federal appropriations Tor
similar expoSitionS. However, he
was one OF q half dozen men who
worked behind the scenes TO induce
the senate TO pass the measure and
may give little trouble when 1t
reaches the floor Of the house.
Although a member of the foreign
affairs committee which reported
the legislation favorably, Martin
was unable to attend hearings and
serveAn notice he would demand to
know how much money was TO be
spent. Representative Johnson Cd
Tex, also a member Of the COM
mittee, said he hoped to keep Mar
tin from obiecting when floor debate
Is reached.
Vice-President Garner, whom the
senate named as one Of four cabi-
net officers to administer the ap-
preparation, also has taken an active
interest In the matter and already
has exerted his influence to send
the resolution TO the White House
for President Roosevelt's signature.
IL provides for creation OF a
United States Texas Centennial
commission composed OF Garner and
Secretaries Hull, wallace and Roper.
They would be authorized TO dele
gate details Of procedure to a COM
missioner general, appointed by the
president at salary Of $4,000 an
nually. This office could then con-
tract the Texas Centennial COM
