Many stories have been told
about the WPA both by its friends
and enemies but there is one
thing evident in Newark recent
ly, and that is the gang now
working on the steel rails in the
streets are going along rapidly
and doing an efficient job.
Was in Frew Boyd's office at
the high school this week and
talk about a busy man. I've al
ways envied school teachers their
three months vacation but Prin-
cipal Boyd will need that much
time to recuperate when he gets
through with all the countless de-
tails attendant upon graduating
a class of 325 seniors. With the
war on he has added duties
brought on by hundreds of form
er students writing to the schools
for proof of high school grades,
types of subjects studied, char
acter and other qualifications to
aid them in securing positions in
war industry. Under the COM
prehensive and complete filing
system now in force it would not
be so tough according to Mr..
Boyd, but in years past records
were not kept so well, and it is
even necessary to contact teach
ers of 10 and Is years ago to OBJ
tain the required information.
For instance a man came rush
ing into the office last week and
said he could go to work the next
morning if he could prove he
had attended high school two
years. After rummaging around
in skinny records of Is years
ago he found the grades for one
year. The man said he had gone
two-other teachers in the sys-
tenn seemed to remember him in
the second year. Just whether
he got the job, or whether he
found teachers who could make
an affidavit to his two years, |
do not know,-but under Mr..
Boyd's system the information
would be available in a minutes
time.
A subscriber called me up one
day last week and told of sitting
on his front porch and seeing
eleven different kinds of birds
within 200 feet Of his home, busy
feeding and making nests. Among
them were a pair of quail. The
unusual opportunity for bird stu
dy so appealed to him that he
ventured the idea his porch might
be a fine place for Boy Scouts
to gather for nature study. Just
what has been done about it |
have not heard, but since this
subscriber is an interesting
chap, old in years and wisdom,
but young in spirit | may ride
that bicycle out and sit on his
front porch myself some evening,
Pm coming, Ben.

then, just when Longlegs would make
up his mind that this time he was
really asleep, open would pop Grand
father Frogs eyes. So all the long
morning Longlegs stood on one foot
without moving, watching and wait
ing and growing hungrier and hum
grier, and all the long morning
Grandfather Frog sat on his big,
green lily-pad, pretending that he
was oh, so sleepy, and all the time
having such comfortable sun-bath
and rest, for very early he had had
such a good breakfast of foolish
green flies.
Over in the bulrushes on the other
side of the Smiling Pool two little
scamps in brown bathing suits had
waited and watched for the great
fright they had planned for Grand
father Frog when they had sent
Longlegs to try to catch him. They
were Billy Mink and Little Joe Of
ter. At first they laughed to them
selves and nudged each other at the
thought Of the trick they had played.
Then, as nothing happened, they be-.
gan to grow tired and uneasy. You
see, they do not possess patience.
Finally they gave up in disgust and
stole away to find some more excit-
ing sport. Grandfather Frog saw
them 60 and chuckled harder than
ever to himself.

Paid for Philippines

At the close of the War with
Spain the United States agreed to
pay Spain $40, 900 for the Phil
ippine islands, Puerto Rico, Guam
and Cuba, which was to be indie
pendent of Spain, although the
United States did not actually take
over Cuba, says Pathfinder. The
terms were agreed upon under the
treaty with Spain signed in Paris
December 10, 1898, and ratified
by the senate February 6, 1899, at
which time the United States
agreed to pay the sum within
three months time.

Fashion is placing great emphasis
this spring on perky little headgear,

headpieces are designed to wear

two models pictured in the above H.

Diamond Dies

In the manufacturing of dia-
mond die, or an industrial dia-
mond containing a minute hole
through which fine wires are
drawn to give them the proper
size, the drilling of the hole is such
a delicate operation that it may
require $50 hours and cost seven
times as much as the diamond
itself.

Patience often wins the day
When overhaste has lost the way.
IF THERE is one virtue which
L Longlegs the Heron possesses
above another it is patience. Yes,
sir. Longlegs certainly has got pa
tience. He believes that if thing is
worth having it is worth waiting for,
and that if he waits long enough he is
sure to get it. Perhaps that's because
he has been a fisherman all his
life, and his father and his grand
father were fishermen. You know
fisherman without patience rarely
catches anything. Of course, Billy

HE Will make q splendid break
FAST" thought Longlegs.
Mink and Little Joe Otter laugh at
this and say that it isn't so, but the
truth is they sometimes go hungry
when they wouldn't if they had a
little of the patience of Longlegs.
Now, Grandfather Frog is another
who is very, very patient. He can
sit still the longest time waiting for
something to come to him. Indeed.
he can sit perfectly still so long,
and Longlegs can stand perfectly
still SO long, that Jerry Muskrat and
Billy Mink and Little Joe Otter have
had many long disputes as to which
OF the two can keep still the longest.
Longlegs had come over to the
Smiling Pool because Little Joe Of
ter and Billy Mink had told him that
Grandfather Frog was sitting on his
big green lily-pad fast asleep.
HE will make a splendid break
fast" thought Longlegs as very,
very carefully he walked along the
edge Of the Smiling Pool so as to
get right opposite Grandfather Frog.
There he stopped and looked very
hard at Grandfather Frog. Yes, he
certainly must be asleep, for his
eyes were closed. Longlegs chuck
led to himself right down inside
without making sound and got
ready to wade out so as to get
within reach.
Now, all the time Grandfather
Frog was doing some quiet chuck
ling himself. You see, he wasn't
asleep at all, for Jerry Muskrat had
warned him. He was just pretend
ing to be asleep, and all the time he
was watching Longlegs out of cor
ner Of one of his big, goggly eyes.
Very, very slowly and carefully, so
as not to make the teeniest, weeni-
est sound, Longlegs lifted one foot
to wade out into the Smiling Pool.
Grandfather Frog pretended to
yawn and opened his big, goggly
eyes. Longlegs stood on one foot
without moving so much as a feath-
err. Grandfather Frog yawned again,
nodded as if he was too sleepy to
keep awake, and half closed his
eyes. Longlegs waited and waited.
Then, little by little, so slowly that
if you had been there you would
hardly have seen him move, he drew
his long neck down until his head
rested on his shoulders.
II guess I must wait until he falls
sound asleep again." said Long1egs
to himself.
But Grandfather Frog didn't go to
sleep. He wodld' nod and nod and

Meusel Star
In Title Role
OF MARTHA
San Carlo Group
Wins Plaudits
In Flotow Opera
BY ELENA de SAYN,

There are instances when an
operatic performance invites su-
perlatives either because Of the
excellence Of its team work or in
diWdual effort, or both. This was
the case yesterday afternoon when
the San Carlo artists presented
Flotow's Martha" among the best
attractions in their repertoire, at
the National Theater.
The cordiality of the applause,
which rewarded every act and many
scenes, served as ample evidence
Of the pleasure received. Lucille
Meusel, in the title role; Charlotte
Bruno, her confidente: Eugene Con-
ley, the susceptible lover; Stefan
Kozakevich, the sturdy farmer, and
Richard Wentworth and Francesca
Curci. supplying comedy, all en-
acted their parts with utmost free
dom and naturalness.
Miss Meusels voice rose with
sweetness and purity in many
cadenzas, florituras and lyric pas
sages. She has no dificulty in
reaching the highest notes and
many of these were heard above
the chorus. The pathos she puts
into her performance Of the Last
Rose of Summer" never fails to
reach the hearts Of her audiences.
Even when Miss Meusel sings less
joyfully and her voice shows signs
OF fatigue, as it did occasionally
yesterday. her interpretations ex-
ercise the old charm upon her lis
teners. The singer was the recipient
OF beautiful bouquet OF red roses
at the end of the first act.
Mr.. Conley. a young tenor. who
was heard here in the rok of Lionel
for the first time, has a4k8ny scored
considerable success Ia ofalef operas.
His ingratiating lyric voice acquires
volume and vibrancy under stress
of emotion as when singing his chief
aria 20 So Gentle. I, So Faithful"
which brought forth several recalls
for him. Mr.. Kozakevich has q
generous part; it gives him great
deal of opportunity for acting, of
which he avails himself to the full
est. Let Me Ask You, Can You
Tell Me-" a song he delivers sur

plaudits for him. Miss Bruno and
Mr.. Wentworth did some clever
mimicry in their continued ensemble
with their partners and sang with
a musical appreciation of their
lines.

cellently performed by solo dancers
and the San Carlo Ballet.

the bill. told Senator Clark he be.
neved such q ban on all liquor ad-
vertising during the war would be
in the public interest.
Senator Capper then suggested
that, since sugar is to be rationed,
it might be well to ration liquor
also.
Mr.. Donohue replied that sugar
is being rationed because 1t is
scarce, but there Is no shortage OF
liquor.
Mr.. LaRoe said there "is an ap-
palling situation here due to the
loose and widespread distribution OF
liquor" such as permitting sale OF
bottled liquor in grocery stores and
in drug stores, frequented by high
school boys.
"It's about the worst in the United
States" suggested Senator Capper.
Regulations Have Helped.
"I don't know of any worse" Mr..
LaRoe replied. "and since you've
asked me, I don't see why Congress
stands for it,"
Mr.. LaRoe also complained Of the
invasion Of residential areas by
liquor stores" but said at the same
time that he did not want to be un-
fair to the A. B. c. Board. Mr..
Lodge has co-operated with us,
and the regulations the board has
adopted have been helpful" he
added.
AS member Of the Parole Board,
Mr.. LaRoe said he was disturbed by
the number of young men getting
into trouble through liquor. He told
the subcommittee he had no specific
remedy to offer. except that it con-
slider tighter legislation.
Saying that the basic evil is the
establishment of the private control
system, he declared that "as long as
you have the profit angle, you will
have all the difficulties the people
on the other side complain of here. !"
He called the pending bill "an
utterly inadequate solution" adding
that it seems to be a step in the
right direction, but cautioned the
committee that too broad a ban on
advertising might encourage mono-
poly.
Lodge Called Square Shooter"
A. D. Calvert, president of the Lin
coin Park Citizens Association, in
dorsed the 600-foot dry area limit
around churches and schools and
defended the A. B. C. Board AS
new constituted. he said, the board
is conscientiously trying to meet the
desires of the people. He praised
Mr.. Lodge as square shooter"
Earl d. Baker, business manager
Of the Washington Daily News, op-
posed the advertising ban because
of the principle involved In prohib-
iting the advertising of an article
which may be sold legally. He said
that whatever evils there are in
the liquor industry 60 beyond the
question of advertising, and that
price cutting existed before there
was any advertising.
Capt. Edward Page CASTOR of the
United Dry Forces said that or
ganization stood for an ultimate re-
turn to prohibition and Endorsed
other bills pending for that purpose.
James P. Cochran, representing
the Potomac Heights Community
Church and the Conduit Road Citi-
zens' Association, Endorsed the bill.

DR.. Manger Praises
Rio Pan.America Pact

Time may prove that much has
been gained by modification OF the
resolution for severance of diplo-
matte relations with the Axis powers
by the American republics at the
recent n-American Conference in
Rio de Janeiro, DR.. William Man
ger, counselor of the Pan-American
Union, said yesterday.
Had the original project been ap-
proved, DR.. Manger told the Ameri-
can Association of University
Women, the contention might well
be made that the two states which
did not favor a resolution obligatory
in character, had been excluded
by the arbitrary action Of the con-
ference.
If, however, they fail now to
comply with the recommendation"
to break relations with Japan, Ger
many and Italy, they will have to
justify their failure to act, DR..
Manger declared.
DR.. Manger spoke at luncheon
meeting held at the A. A. U. W..
clubhouse.
