Like the well-known postman who
takes a walk on his day off, M. Stacy
Lambeth, 37-year-old railroad ma
chinist of Alexandria, Va, makes big
trains in the shops of the Southern
Railroad when at work and spends
nearly all his spare time at home
making little trains.
The little" locomotive on which he
is now working, however, Is no toy
to be run by child around the living

steam locomotive more than 10 feet in
length. -
Mr.. Lambeth, WI lives at 30l Wash
ington avenue, wi have completed his
23rd year of service with the Southern
Railroad next Wednesday.
"An my life," Mr.. Lambeth says,
"Ive wanted to be a locomotive engi-
neer. When was only Is years old I
started working for the Southern.

three years ago I decided to make a

is commonly called the coal car" Mr..
Lambeth has pushed his 23lz inch
wide train against an automobile and
moved it out of the driveway.
Mr.. Lambeth built the locomotive
exactly to scale-l1a " Inch to the foot.
He has made all Of the parts himself
and will point out such devices as the
"Worthington feed water heater" the

the purpose Of each part.
Mr.. Lambeth made the. parts for
the locomotive In a garage in the
rear OF his residence. At first he used
coal to fire the boiler, but because
Of the undesirable smoke changed
the system to an oil burner. In this
respect only, he explained, his loco
motive does not conform to real
Southern engines, because they all
burn coal.

JUR|ST TO BOOST
SPEED PENAL TIES
Newman Convinced
Hurry Is Cause of Most
Fatal Accidents.

Unless there is q perceptible de-
crease in the number of speeding cases
appearing in Traffic Court, Judge
Hobart Newman announced today, he
Is going to raise the penalties on first
offense cases to the maximum Of $25
in each case where there is a sub
stantial violation.
He pointed out that most violations
are substantial ones, since the police
do not bring cases into court where
the speed is not sufficient to prove
dangerous.
Following the same lines, Judge
Newman said he would increase the
penalties for second and third offense
speedings proportionately. He pointed
out a maximum penalty Of 500 is pro-
vided in second-offense cases, with an
alternative of as much as q year in
jail, and third-offense cases the maxi
mum penalty is $500, or so days, or
both. Further, he pointed out, where
third-offense defendants are unable to
pay the fine, they may be assessed an
additional year.
His decision was reached, Judge
Newman stated, because he is con-
vinced speed is the greatest contribut-
ing factor in all accidents, particularly
those that result in fatalities.
Referring to the new parking regu-
lations, which prohibit parking closer
than 20 feet to the building line at in
tersections or so feet of the curb line
at intersections, the jurist said he was
going to assess minimum fines of IS
and maximum penalties Of $40. Fines
for such violations under the old regu-
lations have ordinarily been 50 or s..
His reason for the higher penalty is q
belief that most collisions ct inter-
sections are caused by automobiles be-
ing parked so close to the intersec-
tions as to interfere with the visibility
Of approaching trafic.

Youthful Skill Makes Toys
Of Wooden Odds and Ends
Colored Boys and Girls of N. Y. 4. Find
Training and Money in Project.
Nursery Furniture Fashioned.

Out Of discarded scraps Of wood,
packing cases and empty prune boxes
emerge shiny new toys and children's
furniture for the nursery schools Of
the city.
The toyshop is third floor class
room of the deserted old Cardozo
School and the craftsmen are colored
boys and girls Of the National Youth
Administration.
The project was started little over
year ago with only a few workers.
Now there are 80 youngsters receiving
vocational training and earning their
N Y A. salaries by supplying the
nursery schools with much needed
equipment.
Jointly sponsored by the N. Y. A.
and the recreation department of the
Council Of Social Agencies, the project
was originated by Miss Francois Black,
director Of N. Y. A. for the District,
who conceived the idea to train young
people out OF school who are unpre-
pared for jobs.
Work A Hours a Month.
The boys and girls come in two
shifts, each attending for a week at a
time and putting in A hours a month.
Some boys come on their own time, :"
explained Miss F. e. Chisholm, N. Y.
A. supervisor, who shares teaching
duties with Mrs. Minnie p. Hackney.
'They take orders from individuals
who supply the lumber and pay for
their labor. That way. the boys are
really working for themselves"
She pointed to an impressive clothes
cabinet that one Of the boys is making
In extra time.
The teachers are hoping to start the
youths In independent shops where
they can earn their own living. In
the meantime both boys and girls are
busy with hacksaws, paint and sand
paper fashioning nursery furniture.
Material Costs Nothing.

boards, cigar boxes and crates were
piled. Hundreds OF spools barred Of

BEAUTY SHOP PAY
Of $18 SET HERE
y
Minimum for Operators to
Be Effective Sept. 12-is
Highest Yet in U. s.

A basic wage Of $18 q week, or
dered yesterday by the Minimum
Wage Board for all experienced wom-
en- operators in all of Washington's s
beauty parlors, is scheduled to be-
come mandatory September IL.
This wage floor" is the highest so
far set by any minimum wage agency
in the country, officials Of the board
said. It is 81 week higher than
the proposal offered the board by
employer spokesmen. Labor represen-
tatives had urged adoption of basic
wage of $22.30.
The $18 minimum will apply to
women in the business working from
36 to 48 hours. Part-time operators,
working less than 36 hours a week,
are to be paid no less than so cents
an hour. Those working more than
48 hours q week are to be paid q
minimum of so cents an hour for

ST for Other Employees.
A basic wage of SIT week was
adopted for telephone operators, ap-
pointment desk clerks, cashiers and
clerical workers in beauty parlors.
Maids granted a minimum Of $l4.50
a week, and for part-time service
maids are to receive no less than
IS cent an hour.
Under the Cosmetology Act appren-
tices may work without pay for 500
hours. The Minimum Wage Board
ruled that thereafter they must be
paid no less than $13 week for the
next five months and no less than
SIS week during the ensuing four
months. Thereafter apprentices will
be eligible for the $l8 q week mini
mum. This rule is applied to stu
dents in beauty culture schools as
well as those trained in private shops.
Hearing Set July IL.
The board decided to make indi-
vidual case rulings on the debated
point Of whether operators who rent
booths from beauty shop operator
are employees or irf business for them
selves. Official indicated they would
require adequate proof" that q booth
renter was not an employe before
granting exemptions from the basic
wage.
The board ruled that operators may
be required to furnish their own
manicuring tools, curling irons, hair
scissors, clippers, razors and eyebrow
tweezers, but disallowed- any deduc-
tions for other supplies and ma
terials.
No shop may employ more than
two apprentices, and II there are no
more than three experienced workers
in q shop, may employ only one ap-
prentice.
A public hearing on the boards
decision will be held July II to hear
any protests that may be offered.

From the sides of packing boxes, the
young craftsmen have made an at
tractive nursery screen decorated with
magazine pictures.
Sewing Occupies Girls.
Some of the girls are busy sewing
on uniforms for the N. Y. A. nurses
aides at Freedmen's Hospital. One
girl, who never threaded q needle be-
fore she entered the Toyshop, has
Just finished coverlet with chubby
dogs appliqued all over it.
A child's bed with real spring and
mattress is also in the process of
completion. The spring is made from
chicken wire, but it is comfortable
just the same. And to match it there's
q child's dressing table with a tiny
chair. The shelves in the dressing
table were also originally prune boxes.
Among the most complicated Jobs
is an awninged play table which the
children can use for their toys and
then clear off to eat on. Child-size
benches go with the table. Two of
these tables have already been made.
The first went to Freedmen's Hospital
and the second is on the way to the
Smallwood Nursery School. A proposed
third will go to Langston Terrace, the
new housing development.
Variety Of Toys.
Toys that would fit comfortably into
any Santa Claus bag are also sched-
uled to go to nursery schools in the
near future. There are gaily painted
animal jig saw puzzles, and sand pals,
and soft toys like stuffed cotton
tailed rabbits and baby beds complete
with miniature pillows, blankets and
mattresses.
Those baby beds. incidentally, en-
ploy the bare spools. One or two
spools make the bed stead. The spools,
collected from sewing classes all over
the city, are also painted many colors
and strung together like leis for the
children to play with.
Mrs. Hackney brought out 'bingo
bed" that had just been completed.
TITS modelled after q toy that sells
for $1.25," she said. ''The children
fit the pegs into tight holes and bang
them through to the other side with
wooden hammers we provide. Then
they turn the bed over and bang them
back again. You'd be surprised at
how long they can keep that up"
From dolls houses to what-not
shelves. the boys and girls have
created practical toys that any toy
maker would be glad to have In his
shop. A.
