NIGHT AIR

NIGHT AIR
There comes to us the statement
made by the farm boy named
health champion of his western
state at the yearly fair. He says In
the winter he sleeps in q room with
its one window closed. No night
air. To admit you don't have fresh
air In your room is to be frowned
upon by folks who "fiends'' for It.
There has always been much talk
about the necessity in having all
windows open and wide to be
healthy! Sleeping porches were add
ed to houses to give the sleeper more
air. Today they find it isn't nee
essary to have the cold night air
blowing over you in fact there are
many doctors dealing in various
disorders of nose, throat and lungs.
who insist the patient is better to
sleep in q closed room. Coughing
is not helped by the night air we
read. Health is hard to obtain and
more to be valued than money.

News from the business front

News from the business front Is
almost uniformly good. Typical
comment came recently from Alfred
B. Sloan, head of General Motors,
who said, II feel encouraged for the
first time in years that American
business and industry are headed
for long uphill pull" Inasmuch
as Mr.. Sloan has often tended to be
very pessimistic in the past, this is
regarded as being Of exceptional
significance. .sja. 49,.
For about ten successive weeks.
the business indicators have shown
steady advances. This is largely
due to major improvement shown by
the automobile industry, whose new
models are now coming on the mar
ket. In one late week, car output
jumped so percent. Monthly ship
ment rate. it is expected, will soon
be as the 100000 point,
Construction figures continue to
be another bright spot in the pic
ture, with both residential and non
residential building far above the
levels Of last year. Still more sub.
stantial increases in all kinds OF
building far above the levels Of last
year. Still more substantial In
creases in all kinds Of building, In
Guiding public works, are anticipat-
ed for this winter and spring.
Retail trade, which hung behind
industrial production during most
Of the summer months, is on the rise
now, with Christmas prospects In
most parts of the country good.
It is an interesting fact that the
wage-hour law came into effect
without causing much Of ripple in
business. One reason Is that most
large businesses are unaffected by
the laws minimums, inasmuch as
they have long exceeded them. An
other that most business men be-
lieve that moderate reforms Of this
nature are inevitable and desirable.

HAIL DUNKERs

The best news we have received
In a long time, other than the bit
about the peace pact from abroad,
was the word that "dunking" is &C
ceptable by the powers that be In
the world Of etiquitte. No other
authority than Mrs. Emily Post has
favored the country with her opin-
ion Of this right Of dunking, and
she says it Is proper. That Is. where
doughnuts and coffee are served.
Perhaps Mrs. Post figured that
where these are served It isn't nee
essary for all such rules Of etiquette
| to be upheld to the letter. The sub
ject Of dunking has always been q
bone Of contention In many q home.
The family without q bunker Is
hard to find, and up to this time
many an act Of dunking has had to
be committed behind q paper or
closed doors. From this date on we
are free and emancipated people
as far as dunking Is concerned.
There have been instruments Of
dipping other than doughnuts, but
this new ruling does not cover
them. We cannot be sure whether
toast or corn pone enters into the
picture. Mrs. Post does not desire
that she be understood to tolerate
wholesale dunking. There can be
technique in the art. the idea Of
playing around in the coffee Is not
acceptable. It must be q dignified
process with q display Of dainti-
ness and delicacy. The exact words
are dip it (the doughnut) not too
far and spread it not too wide," and
these words are no longer fightin'
words, pardner! They say usuage
makes words acceptable for the die
tionary, and now 1t looks Like q
popular act has overcome the lifted
eyebrow. the frown, the kick under
the table.

THE INITIATIVES

At the top of the ballots next
Tuesday will be found three initia-
tive measures and q proposition to
amend the state constitution. These
four chances for an expression from
the citizens Of the state should not
be overlooked.
The first initiative is that Of re-
moving the office Of school super
intendents from partisan politics.
The measure includes both state
and county superintendent. We
fail to understand why q party tag
upon a candidate for these offices
should be used any more than the
judiciary. For that matter all 9TH
er county offices could well be nom
partisan, too, save for the one valid
reason of maintaining local party
organization. The same principal
doesn't apply quite so strongly to
the school positions, it seems.
The next proposition applies to
the union racketeering. This mea-
sure should receive over Whelmtng
support in an agricultural COM
munity such as ours, for the farm
er and the union organizations have
nothing in common. On the con-
trary, not infrequently it happens
that farmers are the worst hurt as
the result Of labor troubles In which
the farmers haven't the slightest in
terest, as witness the loss Of Ken
newick's berry crop as the result OF
the 1ongshoremen's strike on the
coast couple Of years ago. The
measure is designed as q protection
to all parties concerned save only
those who are using the unions to
further their private fortunes. The
measure offers protection to the
employee. the employer and to the

ANACOST|A READY
FOR GRID OPENER
Picked to Beat Wilson in
Title Series Debut at
Eastern Tomorrow,

The 1888 interhigh school football
championship series will open tomor-
row afternoon at Eastern Stadium with
the Indians OF Anacostia getting their
baptism in the annual title play when
they meet Woodrow Wilson's Tigers.
Although this will be Anacostias
debut. it figures to offer some good COM
petition to the other schools. and on the
strength Of its showing last Thursday,
when Gonzaga was held to q 12-to-6
victory. it has been picked by most
followers Of high school sports to take
tomorrow's opener with Woodrow
Wilson. Under Coach ROLAND Lund
the Indians have developed a we'll
rounded attack.
Tightens Aerial Defense.
In scrimmage sessions this week,
Lund has frightened Anacostia's pass
defense, one weakness which was re-
vealed in the Gonzaga game. He also
has been working on the aerial offense.
Out at Woodrow Wilson Coach Carl
Helntel cannot see so bright prospect
for his eleven. Many of the players
are inexperienced and will be playing
their first interhigh game. and he
wants to see them under fire before
venturing a prediction as to what they
will do this season. Last year the
team lost four games and tied one. fln-
ishing last in the first school series 1t
entered.
Picks Tentative Lineup.
Until the end of todays practice.
the Woodrow Wilson starting lineup
will not be announced. Heintel has
eight fair backfield prospects, any Of
whom may start game. and all prob
ably will see some action tomorrow.
Lund tentatively has picked the fol-
lowing Anacostia starters: Left end,
Absher; tackle. Hunt; guard, Her
bert; center, Dix; right guard, Lain
hart; tackle, Coon: end, Smith: quar-
terback. Seaman; left half, Gordon:
right half, Farmer, and fullback, Fair
cloth.

Stadium tomorrow in non-series tilt.
