BOBBY JONES
ENDS D.C.vISIT

Atlanta's golfing barriSt er,
Bobby Jones, ended his Washing
ton visit at Columbia Country Club
by shooting a round of 10 with
Dana Belser, to defeat Freddy Nc
Leod and Albert r. Mackenzie,
4 and 3.
Jones equaled par over the Sec
ond local course in as many days
when he went out in 36 and re-
turned in "a. Mcleod scored a
rs, Mackenzie a II, and Belser
a 81.
Jones birdied the first hole on
the outgoing trip and got bogeys
on the third and ninth holes to
reach the turn in one over the
regulation figures. On the return
nine, brides fell before his putter
on the twelfth and fifteenth holes.
He missed a short put on the home
green, which cost him chance to
break par.
After a brief business trip to
Cincinnati, Jones goes to Denver

H|TLESS BONURA
BIGGEST LOSS TO
-GRIFFS

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 26.-
Crashing the ball to all corners Of
the infield, Henry ''Zeke" Bonura,
whose poiderous bat was sup
posed to lift the Mats out Of the
second division, seems to have
contributed more to Washington's
rachitic road record than any
other Nat player.
AS a matter Of fact, the good
natured italian has encountered
considerable difficulty in rapping
as much as a loud foul the past
few days. And his current batting
slump, probably the worst of his
career, has been the most damag-
ing factor of Washington'S un-
happy road trip.
Losing to the Browns in 13 inn
ingS yesterday, the Mats western
tour Sprouted it's ninth loss in II
games. Bonura again went hit
less, popping up or grounding out
a couple of times when a hit would
have given the Mats a victory.
Bonura, since starting the current
road trip, has collected no more
than five hits in Al times at bat,
which amounts to q cool LOG bat
ting average.
OFF-KEY QUARTET
However, Zeke was not without
company today. for the big Wash
ington first baseman was followed
in the batting order by Stone,
Travis, and Almada, all Of whom
emulated Bonura's show Of hit
IesSness. It was pretty much OF
an off-key quartet.
Anyhow, Bonura's Importance
to the Mats might be cleaned from
the fact that he was responsible
for one Of Washington's two vic
tories. zeke's two hits and twelfth
inning fly gave the Mats, and Ken

Three Old Printers

There are probably good many printers still
tive who have worked at their trade for half CEN
fury more, but to find three who have worked
continuously in one plant that long is most unusual
Recently dinner was given in honor Of Martin
@. Good Frank c. Warden and John Naegele. who
were employed by the New York Tribune before the
installation Of the first commercially successful limo
type in July, 1886 All three still employed by that
newspaper, the Herald Tribune.
The dinner was given by Joseph T. Mackey pres
dent of the Mergenthaler Linotype Company, and
the speeches were broadcast by radio. Mr. Good who
has been compostor with the Tribune and Herald
Tribune more than 50 years, told the audience:
Il was twenty-five years old when came to work
on the Tribune. Most of had heard Of Mergenthal-
and were anxious to see if his machine could do
all they said it could He showed us in very modest
manner He true mechanic and worked purely
for the love of it, The linotype changed the routine of
the printer and revoutonized printing
While the advent of the linotype threw a great
many printers out Of employment in the beginning
it is estimated that in normal times there are now
five times many employed as there were before
Ottoman Mergenthaler developed his epoch-making
invention.

Martha Washington

The annual recurrence of Washington's Birthday
on February % is always the inspiration of many
editorials and articles the father of his country"
Occasionally some mention is made of Martha WASH
ington his devoted wife, but her personality is not
well known as it deserves to be.
Mrs Washington was the daughter of Col Dand-
ridge planter of New Kent county, Virginia. and
the widow of Daniel Parke Gusts at the time of
her marriage to Washington on January 6, 1859, be-
ing the mother of -four children by her first husband
Two of her children died in infancy, the others
being Martha Parke Gusts and Col. John Parke Gus
It's whose granddaughter became the wife of General
Robert E. Lee famed Confederate leader.
Mrs. Washington short and plump, with
hazel eyes and dark hair her stature being in mark
ed contrast with that of General Washington who
six feet two inches in height.
She inherited considerable wealth from her first
husband and this added to General Washingtons for
tune made them one of the wealthiest couples in
America at the time, their estate being valued at
more than $5OO0OOO.
George and Martha Washington had no children.
Their married life extended over a period Of more
than 40 years. during which in peace and war; well
in the exacting duties of Presidents wife, she
was his faithful companion and helpmate
AS such she is held in affectonate remembrance
by the nation.

Our Railroads

Railroad mileage in the United States reached its
peak in 1916, with 254,251 miles in operation. Since
then through the abandonment of Improbable
branch lines, the total has been reduced to about
100000 miles.
Approximately IS cents of every dollar received
by American railroads goes for salaries and wages
while more than eight cents is paid out in taxes.
For every man employed directly by the railroads
in their operation it is estimated that other
is employed in various industries upon which the
railroads depend for material fuel and other supplies
The all-time peak of railroad employment was
during 1920, when more than two million persons
were the payrols. Since 1882 the number has
aged about one million, according to records of the
Interstate Commerce Commission. The number at
present is estimated to be less than million.
Approximately one-haf of the country's railroad
mileage operated at loss last year, and 96
panes representing % per cent of the total mileage
in the United States in the hands of re-
ceivers and trustees.
Railroad executives declare the Is percent in
crease in freight rates which they asking is alb
solutely necessary if satisfactory service is to be
maintained.

was Cash Register Saved BY Cat

Staples-f Tom, the big Angora cat that keeps
the of local grocery store free of mice
responsible for saving the cash register when
thieves broke into the store he may have a reward
coming. This remuneration would be in the form of
one frozen pickerel for breakfast as change from
his regular mice diet Ransord Barrus has projected
the theory that the cat saved the cash register from
greater loss than the SITS taken by the prowler,
Every morning when the store is first opened the big
cat begins cawing the store room door to get at
tenon, and it is possible that just about the time the
cash register was being pilfered Tom made enough
noise to unnerve the robber who away with only
part of the change in the drawer. scattering

that has been placed near the heating fan for him.
He may have jumped down from there with thud
when he heard someone in the front room.
