gratitude of the business men to
The Washington Times today for

Eldridge said the recommenda-

He added his office shortly

will permit the entire stretch of

Robertson pointed out Eleventh

been in effect, little or no traffic
to or from Southern Maryland has
used Eleventh Street.

When along comes five o'clock and
no dessert has been prepared, feel
ing akin to panic greets many house.
wife. An all for nothing, when such
a gala dessert as gingerbread with
molases, whipped cream is one of
those hurry-up desserts that does a
good turn for the housewife.
We all know that gingerbread at
its best is hot. Not warmed over
(which is good too) but piping hot
right out of the oven. This means
that the housewife can prepare the
mixture at a few minutes notice and
then put it in the oven just before
sitting down to dinner. Dinner over,

RADIANT LIVING
Tested Pillars
BY Rev. G. Nj. Griffeth
Methodist Pastor of
Deals Island. Md.

The great pillars of the heavenly
Temple of God are not erected fol
mere ornament, but because they have
a vital work to do.
The origin of the pillar is traced
back to the pier which is really thin
wall gathered up into a thicker mass
so as to more safely bear the weight
that is superimposed upon it. But
because square piers became to be
regarded as ugly, they were rounded
into what is now the beautiful cylin-
drical form of the pillar. Yet their
vital work of supporting the super
structure has not changed.
In this respect the pillar symbolizes
to us the value Of the consecrated
lives of Gods saints, which, by their
influence, support the work of Goo
which is built upon them.
This fact is we'll illustrated in the
construction of the old temple o1
Dionysius in Athens, where, instead
of pillars, there are statues of mighty
muscular men upon whose massive up
turned arms and hands rests the
weight of the superstructure.
The pillars in Gods heavenly temple
are the victorious lives of His saints
Hewn out of the quarries of sir
these Temple pillars have to be tested

WHEN CHILDREN WE'D

What Mother thinks when children
wed,
While promises are being said,
May interest you;
Time turn its pages, Oh, so fast
Viewing the years already passed,
AS memory will do.
A little babe with curly head
Must every day be bathed and fed,
Demanding love and care;
The daily toll would quickly fade
To anxious hours sickness made.
Now they knelt in prayer.
She saw her boy with head bent low
And prayed, God may he always
know,
Love without tears;
And may he be to her as true
AS Mother was to him all through
His boyhood years."

starts at Griffith Stadium.
Case, called the fastest man in the
American League and rated by Owner
Grifith as his outstanding rookie, re-
ported to the Mats clubhouse yes
terday with a sprained left arm. The
sprain was a memento OF Cases great
base-stealing show on Friday against
the Baltimore Orioles.
Trainer Mike Martin, who examined
the injury. shook his head obviously
and predicted that Case would sit on
the bench. Manager Bucky Harris
declared that if the 22-year-old speed
ster was unable to play. Melo Almada

letics, regardless OF the pitcher named
by Connie Mack.
Case sustained his injury when he

In recent weeks Case had been q stand
out in the Grapefruit League and, not

definitely had decided to play him in
the opening game if left-hander

That Mack will shoot a southpaw
ut Washington tomorrow is regarded
almost a certainty by Harris and
Griffith. "Mack's sent Edgar Smith

Griffith yesterday. That can mean
only one thing-Smith win open for
the Athletics"
