MOTHERS WORK

OF all the tasks ever assigned,
OF all the work ever designed,
There will not be another
Requiring work, patience, and skill,
In all the duties she must fill,
AS that Of Mother.
There is no school where she can
learn,
No modelling class she might discern
The tasks alined,
Nor is there time, or any place,
Where she with dignity and grace
Can say, IT have resigned"
Few Mothers here may praise at
tain,
And fewer still finances gain,
Her wealth may be another
The numbers that her fireside share
Who bring their heartaches and theil
care,
And call her Mother.

The common way of preparing car
rots and cauliflower is to boil them
However, there are those women
who boil them a bit and then start
from there to really prepare the vege-
tables for the evening meal. Some
will cream them, others mix them
with an assortment of vegetables but
there are recipes from the west that
are a bit different. The women who
thought up these recipes had good
ideas and better food sense, they
fried them:
FRIED CARROTS
Wash, scrape and cut some tender
young carrots in quarters, length
wise. Throw them into boiling salt
ed water and parboil them for ten
minutes. Drain off all the water and

A simple mayonnaise serves as the

Bill Tuesday
House-Approved
Measure Creates
7.Member Board

The House-approved bill to es-
tablish a recreation board for the
District will come up for considera-
ton by the Senate District Com
mittee Tuesday at 1890 am.
Whether the committee would
hear it at that time or appoint a
subcommittee to report on it later
could not be Immediately deter
mined but the latter procedure was
considered likely.
Meanwhile. with small prospect
that the measure would be basically
changed, plans are reported going
forward for the naming of members
of the seven member board, four
of whom would be citizens appointed
by the Commissioners. At least one
civic organization is known to have
submitted recommendations.
The Commissioners are expected
10 include one woman and one COL
ored citizen among the four ap-
pointments, should the bill become
law.
Irving c. Root, superintendent of
National Capital parks, would be one
member of the board, and probably
Commissioner Young for the Board
of Commissioners. Mr.. Young is the
representative of the city heads
under the joint administration of
recreation between the Commission
ers and the Board of Education now
operating.

structed many other children In

"On October %, 1910, when this
boy was almost IA years of age, he
was committed TO the Board Of
Public Welfare by the Juvenile
Court. having been arrested two
months previously. on August %
and August 81, 1910. for breaking
into meters. He had been released
in the care of his parents when the
second of these two arrests was
made.
The Board of Public Welfare,
having been made responsible by
the court for this boy. in turn re-
leased him to the boys relatives at
Clinton, Nd. where he was sup
posed to attend school and keep out
of Washington. Nevertheless, on
February 4 he was again arrested
and charged with five cases of petit
larceny tariSing out of tampering
with meters and was at once re-
leased IN care of the Board of Pub
lie Welfare without first being
brought before the Juvenile Court.
Court Needs Psychiatrist.
Despite this boys previous rec
ord he was once more returned 70
his relatives in Maryland and on
February was rearrested for
breaking into parking meters. there
after being held at the Receiving
Home for arraignment in Juvenile
Court. Subsequently. on February
26, he was examined at Gallinger
Hospital and found TO be feeble
minded and arrangements were
made by the court for his commit
ment to the District Training
School"
The committee found the police
records showed the boy arrested on
six separate occasions. but Juvenile
Court records only indicated four.
No previous psychiatric examina-
ton of the lad had been made, 1t
was pointed out. The investigators
felt the court should have a doc
tor or psychiatrist to aid in deter
mining the health or mental con-
dition of cases brought before the
court.
Another discovery of the INQUIRY
was that most of the property de-
struction on buses and streetcars
was concentrated in the central area
of the city, where recreation IA
cilities are feWest.
Plotting a pin map of the Of
lenses. the committee members
found the concentration in the area
bounded by Pennsylvania avenue on
the south, Florida avenue on the

east and New Hampshire avenue on
the west. The data was furnished

by the new branch of the Air Corps
technical schools.
Obtaining sufficient instructors
for the rapidly expanding Air Corps
schools is one of the major prob
lens. The educational requirement
for enrolment in aviation schools
originally was two years of college.
but now high school graduates are
accepted for training as mechanics
in the Air Corps.
Instructors Increased.
The instruction staff originally
was made up of civilians with spe-
cialized knowledge of aviation en-
gines. instruments and tools. Later
the staff was augmented by recruits
from the service who had COM
pleted the required course for in
structors.
The Air Corps Institute is new in
the aviation branch of the service.
but the Marine Corps and the Coast
Guard for 20 years and IA years,
respectively, have had correspond
ence educational centers. The Ma
rine Corps Institute is set up at the

Demands of Defense.
In making the announcement Of
