Printing work for the departments is swamping the government print- ing office. Almost double the quantity of this time last year is in the shop and more than three times the quan- ity of two months ago is awaiting its lturn on the presses. The figures were made public today by Public Printer George H. Carter. The government printshop today has 43,395 folios or pages of “copy” B tarned out I Hhe. form of ‘pam- phlets, books and circulars. On_July 20, 1920, there were but 126,837 folios on hand, while two months ‘ago, when the departmental printing appropriations were peter- ing out. there was less than 12,000 folios awaiting publication. large orders for printing which the departments are sending into the government printing office, fear was expressed that the appro- priations for the first half of the fis- cal year may run out during the first quartcr, leaving no money for the i departments during the three months of the second quarter of the fiscal Fear. According to a provision in the sundry civil bill covering these ap- propriations, departments may not | spend ‘more than. half of the total :annual printing appropriation during the first six months of the fiscal year. Each job has a jacket. There are 5.073 jackets in the office. Two hun- dred per day are being turned out. which gives some idea of the amount jof work the office is called upon to handle just at this time. KIWANIS CLUB SHOWS REMARKABLE GROWTH . D. Hank, District Governor, Ad- ' dresses Members and Re- ceives Gold Pen. In response to an address of wel- comé by John J. Boobar, lieutenant governor, J. D. Hank, governor of the capital district of Kiwanis, gave an account of the wonderful growth of the organization in the territory he presided over at the weekly lunch- eon of the Kiwanis Club at the Hotel Washington yesterday afternoon. He touched on the success of the recent national convention of Ki- wanis at Cleveland, Ohio, and said that the membership of the organiza- tion had doubled in the past year, jumping from 25,000 to more than 50,000 members, and that nine new Kiwanis clubs had been organized in the capital district within the past three months. Gov. Hank was presented with a | gold pen as a token of appreciation by members of the local club, Roe Fulkerson making the presentation speech, David Pender, president of the Nor- folk Kiwanis Club; Joseph M. Fent- ress, chairman of 'the Norfolk con- vention committee; D. K. Kellogg, president of the Richmond Kiwanis Club; Gen. Rooert Alexander, U.S. A., and “Miss” Jean Metcalf, appearing this week at the Cosmos Theater, ‘were the guests of honor. An amusing_ incident occurred when Claude Woodward announced the contestants for the prizes for the handsomest and homeliest guests present to be “Miss” Metcalf and Gen. Alexander. The officer gallant- ly withdrew from the beauty con- test in favor of the “fair one” and amid great applause “Miss” Metcalf was_ presented the box of flowers, but later, after singing several songs, “she” pulled off a wig and proved to be a female impersonator. Joseph Furness, on behalf of the motor corps, invited all Kiwanians to attend the forthcoming meeting of that organization, Tuesday night, in the auditorium of the Interior Department, when theqCommission- ers, Maj. Gessford, Capt. Lord and Maj. Rayner, will deliver brief ad- dresses on the activities of the or- ganization. — MINING EXPERT SHOOTS HIMSELF IN D. C. HOTEL Hugh W. Fullerton, 54, of Ohio, Dies in Hospital—Had Long Been Very Il Hugh Work Fullerton, fifty-four years old, mining expert, of Spring- fleld, Ohio, took his life by shooting himself yesterday afternoon, while in his room at the Harrington Hotel. The shooting occurred abBut 5 o'clock and he died two hours later at Emergency Hospital. Mrs. Fullerton was in an adjoining room at the time She told Coroner Nevitt that her husband had been practically an invalid for several years. He had fits of despondency, she sald, but had never mentioned suicide. The coroner said he thought the hot weather was partly respon- sible for the tragedy. ‘The deceased, as a mining expert, it is said. did much toward deve'oping the Cripple Creek, Col., mines. He was deeply interested in pending legisla- tion relating to sold mining and had furnished much interesting d:.ta_to the American Mining Congress. Mr. Fullerton, his wife and their’daugh- ter, Miss Dorothy Fullerton, came to this city shortly before, Congzress coni- vened. Coroner Nevitt gave a certificale of suicide. Walter R. Lynn, Telford, Pa., brother of Mrs. Fullerton, came here arrangements. The body will b, to Springfield for interment. Mr. Fullerton is survived by his ! widow, daughter and a son, Stuart | Fullerton, vice consul at’ Lyons rance. His mother, Mrs. L. 1 ilerton, a resident of Springfleld, a! survives him. Hugh S. Fullerton. sport writer and base ball expert, is a cousin. —_— MRS. HARDING DECLINES. egrets Inability to Attend Girl Scouu’ Field Day Invitation.

Vlctonan Days. d The age Vlctorian, methinks, produced some able writing ginks, although they’re jeered at now; the modern wielders of the pen insist that prudery was then behind each bulging brow. The authors of that by-gone time wrote tales of love, lintrigue and crime, in palace and in hut; and all their tales were good and clean, they wrote | up life, both high and mean, but left out all the smut. The beastliness of life, gadzooks! Why write it up in mighty books, in language coarse and curt? Why overlook the blooming; rose to show that soil from which it grows is largely made of dirt? Our later scribes re- solved to strike against conven- tion and the like, and show llfe, as it is; and when I read their :txrrmg tales of gas the sewer pipe exhales, I weep and cry, “Gee whiz!” They show up every morbid phase of life as lived these sordid days in slum and den and style; and if the tales they tell are true, and life; is such a beastly stew, the world had better die. The prudes Vic- torian were wise ; they wrote of mirth and shining skies, clean dames and decent men; they knew the world had filth and vice, but figured that it wasn’t nice with such to soil the pen.

Community Singing and Band Music Among Features. Recreational singing led by: Robert Lawrence, who organized Washing- ton’s first nrusic week, will be one of the outstanding features of the pop- ular concert to be given in the sta- dium of Central High School next Friday night, under the auspices of the public schools. The program aiso will include a concert by the Navy Yard Batd, un- dor the direction of Charles Benter, and several vaudeville actg. suitable for outdoor performance. general admission of 10 cents will be charged. Part of the proceeds will go ‘toward defraying the deficit of the music week activities. Recreational music, as interpreted by Mr. Lawrence, means singing that “re-creates and revives tired couraged men and women.” “It ject” he says, “is to bring back hope, happiness and courage and to give to every one who takes part something that will make his next day seem more worth living. Frederick L. Stephens, who is as- sisting in arranging'for thé event, says that the Central stadium is al- ways swept by cool breezes. DOGS BITE FOUR PEOPLE.

Indorsement %t the sales tax on goods, wares and merchandise fea- tured the special meeting yesterday ll{arnaon “of the Washington Board of ‘Trade; President Thomas Bradley presiding. The vote of the board, taken immediately after the report of the special committee appointed to investigate the new tax plan, was similar to that recently taken by the Detroit Chamber of Commerce and the Washington Chamber of -Com- merce. John 8. Hoarb, formerly commhl- sioner of internal revenue Philippines and aythor of the sales tax plan for the islands, gave a brief address on the effect of the tax there. He said that both tax- payer and tax collector were en- thusiastic regarding its simplicity and fairness. “No one felt the tax there” said Mr. Hoarb, “the 1 per cent not both- ering any .one and being especially simple for the merchant to figure up when It came time to pay his taxes.” The speaker vigorously advocated such a tax for the United States and said that in his opinion it would bring in three times the amount of | the taxes for which it was substi- tuted. Members of the special committee of the board, which prepared the re- port follow: Henry H. McKee, Johi Joy Edson, Wlllhxn ‘T. Galliher, Wil- lam ‘Washburn, E. H. Droop and Thomas Bradley. —_— RITES FOR SOLDIER. Private Morrow. to Be Buried at Alexandria. Internient of the body of Private Howard Morrow, son of the late Wil liam J.
