YOUNG PRISONER - PUZZLE TO POLIGE .Elmer Sullivan Now on Hun- | ger Strike—Refuses to- I - Stay Where He’s Put. That's to be done when a perfectly ®ood prisoner refuses to “stay put”? District authorities are asking themselves this quastion in an at- fempt to solve the problem of where next to confine fourteen-vear-old El- mer J. Sullivan, an orphan, after his most recent escape, which occurred at the Tuberculosis Hospital Tuesday. Elmer is now on a hunger strike at the house of detention, where he was taken yesterday by the police on a charge of burglary. He's been there before. In fact, the boy seems to have paid & visit, on the invitation of the au- thorities in times past, to 1 majority of the institutions about town where Young people who get into trouble are sent. Won't Stay Where He's Put. h time young Sullivan has stead- fastly refused to stay long on these invitations, although the best of pri- vate and public care has been afford- ed him. Puzzled over what to do with the boy. representatives of the various District agencies engaged in uplift work will probably put the question up to Judge Sellers of the Juvenile Court for decision. Here is how Elmer got clutches of the law yesterday. Responding to a call for police as- sistance at the store of E. T. Good- man, 1838 Columbia road, yesterday marning_about 1:30 o'clock, Policeman W. H. Vermillion found that the boy, had broken a pane of glass from a rear | door and entered, taking with him al bathing suit that been thrown over, his shoulders to protect him from the rain. Detectives Bradley and Ver- ! million reached the store soon after the arrest and participated in an in- vestigation of the boy's conduct. Calls on Girl; Takes $12. | When the tenth precinct police st: tlon was reached Policeman Vermi lion found in the boy's possession a pocketbook containing about $10, that had been stolen from the room of Miss Nellie Denham, 627 Pennsylvania | avenue, earlier in the day. Young| Sullivan admitted calling on Miss Denham, taking the pocketbook and spending $2 of its contents. It_developed that the boy had been into the in Washington City Orphan Asylum, where he was given the best possible | eare and treatment. He refused te remain there, however, and finally be- came a ward of the board of children’s guardians. Private homes and instis | tutions failed to satisfy him and. it is stated. he was arrested. The first! time he was in the house of detention, it is stated. he took a small sum of | money and hid it where it could never | have done him any good. H Monday night the boy was takcn . from the house of detention to Tuber-! culosis Hospital. He soon disappeared | from there, however. and nothing was } seen of him by the police until his arrest this morning. J Flowers for July Weddings. Effec- tive and economical.

Laying aside for the present i thoughts of summer vacation, ap- proximately 2,600 Washington school ichildren, intent on making up i “Aunks” or on pushing ahead of their regutar studios, yesterday began a six- week summer course offered by the ! public grade and hizh schools, under the direction of Walter B. Patterson. Enrollment _ef pupils in these classes, to be conducted in twenty-one grade schools and two high’ schools, will exceed last year's figures by sev- eral hundred, it” was indicated from reports received at the Franklin Scnool by Director Patterson. Actual figures will not be available until | tomorrow, at the earliest. Mr. Patterson believes that prob- ably 1,300 cbildren entered the grade schools vesterday morning at § o'clock, and that a like number enrolled at Cen- tral High School and the Dunbar High School. Information given the director from a number of the bulld- ! ings disclosed that the middle grades, such as the third, fourth and Afth, are greatly congested this sun mer, He said it may be neces sary to adjust ciasses and Bshift teachers to rectify this trouble. Sev- cral of the classes reported an enroll- ment of thirty-five and forty puplls, whereas the class limit is thirty. There was apparently not so much crowding in the lower and higher grade. —_— In the city of Burma, in a Baby- lonian province, there was a college or university for women, and the feminine members of the province's missions and these. sinecure The i 2 i Shi; s yl(anr) had equal rights with men funds.” 7 X MOUNT VERNON AND Alexandria, round trip....
