''Sne will, Ben, I'm sure she will"
The sudden entrance into the room
of Edna dressed for the street and
carrying two suitcases brought q
startled gasp from Mrs Smith.
Edna! Where are you going?"
Edna's round face was glstening
with Precipitation; her small mouth
was pulled up into a defiant pink
knot.
ITO my sisters. Tomorrow I'm
looking for a new job"
"Why, Edna, what an ideal" Mrs.
Smith made an attempt to be au-
thoritative. You go right back up
stairs and unpack. You're not GO

The girl put her bags down and
took handkerchief from her pocket.
Il always thought you folks were
kind to your help. That's what they
told me at the employment agency.
You 60 work for DR.. and Mrs.

Grace Blake Disopproyes
OF Intern Kote Fuller

Earlier. driving home from the
Smiths, Grace Blake said pettishly
to her husband, There are times
when I think Effie Smith is losing
her mind"
What mind?" asked Harry sar-
castically.
''She used to be So clever at en-
tertaining." went on Grace, pulling
at her tight clothes. ''She did it
better than any of the rest Of us.
Effie has gift that way but ! must
say she's making mistake when
she tries to foist people like that
woman doctor on her friends"
Harry, already infatuated with
Kate and looking forward eagerly
to their next meeting, shrugged and
murmured indifferently, ''T n a {
Smith woman has always run you,
Grace"

friends but Effie doesn't run me,

Effie Smith Realizes
She Has Made q Mistake

Kate thought despairingly, what
a nightmare! I wish l could run out
the back way. He doesn't know I'm
here or he wouldn't have come. He'll
probably think planned this.
She became aware that Eliza
beth Moore was watching her face.
Don't we have fun in Riverdale,
DR.. FuIer?" the girl asked with
slow, wise smile.
The guests had departed and Effie
Smith was trailing around the living
room emptying ash trays into a pa

toward her left ear but for once she
made no effort to fasten it in
place.

Dr. Smith moved away from the
window. His face looked tired and
cross.

the doctor said
"Oh, Ben, don't look at me like

II died a thousand deaths during

There was sudden and somehow
ominous silence in the kitchen. Mrs.
Smith lifted her head and listened.

can't have finished the dishes"

bluntly. He had seldom been so up

wife fretfully.

and began to walk around the room,

He was referring to a major
shakeup at the Academy which had
resulted in the dismissal of several
department heads and the headmas-
ter whose place George had taken.
The reorganization had come about
because the ultra-modern views of
the teachers had clashed with the
more conservative ideas Of Grace

WI to Address
Amateurs Here

The noted Chinese photog-
rapher Frnacis WI of Hong
Kong. who is in this country
to address the conventions cf
the Photographic Society Of
America and the Photographers
Association Of America, will
speak to camera enthusiasts of
this area at the Department Of
Agriculture auditorium on Sep
tember 1S.
Although he is a professional
in whose studio the portraits of
many European and Oriental
dignitaries have been made, it
is his interest in promoting
amateur photography which led
Mr.. WI. to undertake his
present lecture tour.
AS a stimulant to Chinese
amateurs, he edited and pub
lished Chinese Photography,
a monthly magazine printed in
both English and Chinese until
the Communists over-ran conti-
mental China and forced its
suspension Hong Kong is
outside the "bamboo curtain"
and his work as guide and
teacher of photographers con-
tinues there.
His pictures, which have been
widely exhibited in this cnuntry
and many of which have been
reproduced in American publi-
cations. display a quality so dis
tinctive as to be almost unique.
In his lecture here, he will ex-
plain the Chinese approach to
photography and the methods
le uses to achieve his lemark-
,ble results.

By John CIoqett Proctor

Some of Washington's old
hostelries have passed entirely
from the local scene. or under
gone great changes, during the
Capitals growth and expansion.
Among these, the old Ebbitt
House at Fourteenth and F
streets has been replaced by the
National Press Club Building;
the Capitol Hotel at Third and
Pennsylvania avenue has given
way to a gasoline station; the
National has become but a mem
ory; the old Shoreham at Fif-
teenth and H streets was razed
to make room for a large Office
building; the Franklin Square
Hotel, at Fourteenth and K
streets, no longer exists, and the
old Hamilton House, directly
opposite, has evolved into the
new Hamilton of today.
And so it goes, the old city
makes way for the new, and the
scenery is ever changing.
So far as the old National
Hotel (now no more), is con-
cerned. on the morning Of
October 2, 1921, it looked
for a while as though the
day of it's passing had ar
rived, for on that day flames
threatened to consume it. AS it
was, considerable damage was
done and had it not been for
the efficiency of our Fire De-
partment, it would have been
completely destroyed. In addi-
tion to the serious property
damage sustained, two persons
lost their lives and there were
many narrow escapes among the
three hundred and more guests
who climbed down ladders or
were carried down by firemen.
The National must have been
begun prior to 1926, if the state
ment is true that it was first
opened to guests on Washing
tons Birthday, February %.
1926, by a parade, succeeded in
the evening by a grand ball at
the hotel.
The first proprietor Of the
National was John Gadsby, who
formerly ran the Indian Queen
Hotel in Baltimore. He had
come here in 1919, to conduct
the O'Neale hostelry. known as
the Franklin Hotel, but about
1925 he decided upon a change
of location and the National
was erected especially for him.
He took a long lease of the
property. and 1t was during his
proprietorship that it was
known as Gadsby's Hotel.
