To help restore an impaired and seemingly lost confidence is the greatest contribution America can make to civillzation today, declared Rev. James E. Freeman, rector of the Church of the Epiphany, to mem- bers of the Kiwanis Club at a meet- ing in the Hotel Washington yes- terday. “Not only Europe, but America and the rest of the world, is suffering at present from the lack of self-confi- dence, which began to dwindle fully ten years ago,” said the minister, “and I have no hesitancy in saying that had the great powers of the earth been in full possession of their confidence the world war would never have happened.” Dr. Freeman bitterly assailed hypercritical persons and _cynics of all lands and said that not until in- ternational suspicions and unground- ed mistrusts were banished from the hearts of men, especially those in a position to govern, could a resora- tion of normaley be accomplished. “The great with our own > tod; continued the s this very lack of self- and the sooner all men v the hill return to clean d instill in themselves the up there thin confidence for which the Americans of the past have . then the sooner, I say, will real peace and happiness pre- vail through our land.” d Lines Urged. id that the same ap- plied to individuals, and importuned his auditors to think, work and live along broad lines, declaring that no Yonger was it true that competition was the life of trade, but that success would come quicker to those who practiced the gospel of toleration and unselfishness, and sought the fast- fading confidence that was affecting us all. He congratulated the cl.b on its splendid spirit, commended it on its and purposes, but said that il all civic betterment bodies of Washington co-operated in the fullest measure would true succ ecrown their efforts. tion he cit ¢ clubs of M he said. had alw s purpos: worked ion of that city with representatives from each of the fifty-six separate bodies, came into « Roberts presided, and an- nounced the directors of the club had recommended that the poor farm at Blue Plains be added to the list of in- stitutions to be aided by Kiwanis this Christmas.

Advocating more playgrounds and a larger police force as the surest means of combating the ever-increas- ing traffic accident list, Rudolph Jose, president of the Civitan Club, gave a spirited talk to his fellow club mem- bers at a meeting of the organization in_the City Club yesterday. Mr. José stressed the fact that of the ninety-seven children killed in ‘Washington during 1921 about one- half were under five years of age. This, he said, showed that they must have been killed near their homes. He predicted, splendid results from the forthcoming Safety week cam- i paign, which begins here Sunday. Clarence Harding was nominated for president to serve during 1923, and, as he was unopposed, his elec- tion 1s assured. Others nominated for office, to be decided at the next meet- ing of the club, were James Proctor, Dr. Grant Barnhardt, Ernest Green- wood, Ben Burch and Charles Crane for vice president, and Gen. H.

Or is it a ham? - These questions perplexed bailiffs and deputy United States mar- shals in the United States branch of Police Court yesterday, when a large box was dellvered at the courtroom addressed to Judge Robert Hardison. A ballift placed it on the bench beside the judge, who was delivering instructions to a jury in a case in which the defendant was charged with vio- lating the national _prohibition law. A newspaper reported asked what the package was. The bailiff said it “felt like a ham.” The reporter then suggested that it might be an infernal machine. The sugges- tion caused the bailiff to pale. But the package yas not removed. When the jury took the case and Judge Hardison left the bench the package was examined. It was a selected country-cured ham from the bluegrass country. Rice. and William Galliher awarded booster prizes. Soroptomists to Elect.
