Trinidad Boys Club
Spurs Tagging Drive

Members of the Trinidad Boys
Club moved ahead today with their
activities program, determined to
keep their outfit going, despite a
tagging fund campaign which ap-
peared snagged near the halfway
mark.
Meanwhile, the theme at the org
anization's headquarters, 1ll9 Wylle
street NE, remains:
We built this club and we want
to keep it"
1t was the same determined desire
the boys expressed when their adult
board of directors recently received
an invitation to join the Police
Boys Club, larger organization
The directors took note of the boys
wish to maintain their independence
The Trinidad boys worked hard
even mixing concrete and laying
floors, plastering and painting-to
build the club. They have worked
even harder to maintain it during
a three-year struggle for existence
The result is proud esprit de
corps" and feeling that the club
is their own
The club opeartes an intensive
after school athletic program as
we'll as other recreation time actlv-
tiles. It has a board of directors
of prominent Washington residents
headed by 1t William T. Murphy
of the Police Juvenile Bureau, and
one full-time paid employe, Mr.
Nalley. 1t is supported by private
contributions.
The current drive for $4,000 has

Natives Delay Navy Day Talk
By Verbal Furry on Lottery

| Il think a lottery proposal is per-
! fectly immoral" he added
Miss Taggart rose to ask if the
community was immoral when it did
allow lotteries.
II am a student of history" she
said. "and the court house was built
with funds from a lottery. I am
lawyer, and when I accept cases
on contingent basis, I gamble
that I will win. This whole life is
gamble.
She was roundly applauded.
Emery Reads Paper.
Then Mr.. Emery read his paper.
He told how Theodore Roosevelt,
when Assistant Secretary of the
Navy. complained about President
McKinley's slowness in declaring
war with Spain by saying the Presi-
ident had the backbone of a choco-
late evlair.'
He told how after the Spanish
American War, at the time the
Theodore Roosevelt administration
was maintaining it had nothing to
do with the separation of Panama
from Colombia, he had walked from
the White House to the State De-
partment with Secretary of State
John Hay.
I asked him." Mr. Emery said,
How he could figure the United
States Government had nothing to
do with the partition, when practi-
cally the entire United States Navy
was standing by. He turned sharply,
put both his hands on my shoulders
and replied, 1T was simply the ex-
ercise of an intelligent FORE
! thought"

this motion which was carried:
That the Society of Natives COM
mends Maj. Barrett for his efforts
to improve the police department
and asks the public to be less critical
because criticism was so often un-
justified.
Then a motion was made that the
