which is $2o.316 less than the cur
rent appropriation.
For the coming year, Schrom re.
quested $2,449,204. The 1888 APP
preparation was $2,469,520.
Schrom asked an increase OF
$50. 100 for salaries. With this he
proposes to save the District
81, 300 by transferring II men now
on the per diem rolls to the regu-
lar rolls. He said these men now
work a 40-hour week in repair OF
fire apparatus. AS regular fire
men they will work 44-hour week
and be subject to call for emergs
ency duty. The move also will
mean salary increases for the
men.

He asked an increase Of SIG, 784
to build second-story addition to

Georgia Ave. N. w., to relieve
overcrowded conditions, and to

THE OTHER SIDE OF LIFE.

THE OTHER SIDE OF LIFE.
In every life there are two sides:
the selfward side and the Godward
side. The selfward side of our life is
costly; the Godward side is cheap.
That is true of most of us; but
strange to say, the incongruity and
improperly of it does not often ap-
pear to us.
We send our children to public
schools. in which is provided every
appliance for successful teaching and
training. Spacious buildings, ample
class rooms, trained teachers, every
sort of apparatus that will aid in their
work are supplied. Then on Sunday,
many classes are in one room with
unframed teachers and no apparatus,

Door teachers to inject into the child
he spiritual instruction that will sup
NV the character and spiritual
Stamina to support the intellectual
and material training of the whole

whole, $26.53. So it appears that, not
withstanding the adverse growing
weather and lack of plants in this
section, it has been, after all, a won
derful season for Henderson, and
Henderson still remains tops in av-
e~age. At one time it was thought
that the severe rains had worked
great havoc on the crop, but in many
instances this rain falling upon the
tips in great torrents washed lots
of the gum out of them, thereby con-
verting some of them into good smok-
ing tobacco.
While the success of the market this
season has been largely due to the
splendid warehousemen and incom-
parable buyers located upon this mar
kct yet the publicity given the mar
ket has been great factor Ralph
Waldo Emerson once said, in sub
stance, that though a shoemaker
built his shop in the woods if he were
a better shoemaker than any one
else, there would be beaten path to
his door Had Mr.. Emerson lived in
this day and time, he couldn't have
said it, for this is a day Of great pub
licity and any market or any bust
ness that ignores this potent fact, Will
soon perish by the wayside.
To give the Henderson market at
least a part of the publicity so neces-
sarv in its business, the bankers, the
merchants and the professional men
of the town, through the 1920 Clue,
came to the rescue of the market, by
furnishing the greater part OF the
money so necessary in conducting an
advertising campaign. They furnished
the supervisor of sales, who is also
the advertising manager, with
stenoerapher. The Dispatch publish
ing company gave us space in their
main office and the use of their tele-
,hcnes. Why all this explanation?
some one might ask For the reason
that in doing this, information coui'

lied that the pending Washington

port favoring the Camp Springs site
The new plan contained a detailed
layout providing runways 1000 feet

that the plan had not been submitted

out slight hope for consideration of

In event of the failure of the Camp
