A total of 425 senior hostesses
have been finger printed and are
working regularly at the canteen.
Eleven senior hostesses have worked
so hours or more. Many of them
are the wives of generals, admirals,
high Government executives and
prominent citizens.
Approximately 1900 entertainers
have performed for the military
guests. Fifty different orchestras
have played, and there have been
500 featured performers. The
monetary value of the entertain

free, is estimated at $575,000.
Ten members of the cast from

last night at the canteen before
their final performance at the Ma

Parking Meter Receipts
Rise $3.50 Over Last Year

Despite wartime driving restric-
tions, the District received $3.50
more from its parking meters in
March than during the same month
last year, Traffic Director William
A. Van Duzer said yesterday. Park
ers contributed $2,667.38 in nickels
last month.
This would indicate, Mr.. Van
Duzer said, that more motorists
are using their cars for business
and shopping activities.
There also was an up-trend in
meter receipts for February of this
year, the traffic director reported.
However, for January the revenue
dropped from $2,336.65 last year to
$1,75760 this year. The February
figure stood at $1,70003, against
$1,44125 for 1912.

There may be a new face or two
among the birds and animals in the
Zoo soon, Dr. William M. Mann in
dicated last night. He plans to leave
tomorrow for a visit of several days
to geological parks in New York and
Philadelphia.
DR.. Mann will inspect a modern
elephant house in Philadelphia and
a recently-revamped bird house and
several new outdoor Enclosures for
antelopes in New York.
DR.. Mann said he has no definite
plans for trading birds or animals
with the two geological establish
ments but added:
"You don't plan those things
ahead OF time. I'll be keeping my
eyes open, and may have some
news for you when I get back"

fear of him. Then ne stole into the home with
the manlacal intention of WipIng out the entire

The veteran sheriff was gratliicd TO Obtain
the confession so easily but when he, returned his

She knew some was stealing into the house.
Gladys Stewart t=Hp= IN stark terror, and,
clutching her husbands arm, screamed:
"Chub, Club. somebody's In the house"
Stewart sat up sleepily just as his wife
caught sight of an ape-like blur in the doorway.
From the middle of that black apparition abruptly
came a streak Of flame and thunderouS roar!
Gladys heard her husband emit A groan-then
saw him topple sideways out of the bed!
