LATCH AR DO @RS AR V@ N AREE WILLIAMS PI_AN R'H_E RANGE Little Food Now Impure in U. S. : INPOTOMAC PARK Practice Grounds for Public Shortly to Be Constructed, Says Col. Sherrill. - A large rifle range for the amuse- {ment and training of the public of the District of Columbia is very shortly to be constructed in East Potomac Park, at a point adjacent to the tour- ist camp. When this was made known officlal- Iy today by Col. Clarence O. Sherrlill, officer In charge of public buildings and grounds, it was announced that the plans for the range are practical- of the House!ly completed, and that the official or- | der of the Secretary of War to war- rant the expendlture of the money necessary for this public innovation Wil be forthcoming within the next few days. Seek Better Marksmanship, The entire cost of building and malntaining this range will be borne by the War Department, and the ac- tual management will be placed un- der Col. L. F. Stodter, United States Army, director of civilian marks- manship of the War Department. By not only to add to the open air acti- vities on the part of the public of the Capital, but to create greater in- terest in the hamlling of firearms and to promote marksmanship mong the civillan population, female as well as male, and the youth as well as the adult The plans as prepared range 250 yards long and wide and for a 50-y call for a 100 yurds ard and 100 The ing will be ‘through port holes and there will be stout walls behind each of the targets, and every other pre- caution to prevent accidents haw been provided. The range and its appointments are very similar, Col. Sherrill explained, to those used by the American troops in training camps in France. There also will be a_clubhouse constructed at one end of the range which, besides other things, will be used for short range practice during the winter months. Wil Clea: This means of indulging in target practice will prove instantly popular, it is believed by those planning it. They point to the fact that within the past few years there has been a de- cided increase in interest, especially among the youth of America, in at- taining greater proficiency in marksmanship. There has been a no- ticeable interest among young women of the colleges and high schools, there being in Washington a dozen or more fairly capable rifie teams already or- ganized. The office of public bulldings and grounds stated the installation of Up Lyesore. a this range will not only serve as an | additional outdoor recreation for the public, and will be educational, but it will result in the removal of a number of those wooden barnlike government storehouses located _in East Potomac Park and which, be- cause of their forlorn and unartistic appearance, have become eyesores to the many thousands off persons who patronize that section of the park. Besides this, the area upon which the range will be built is now used to a large extent by the general sup- ply committee of the government for the placing of junk and debris, all of which will be removed when' the work of construction begins, which Col. Sherrill believes will be within the next month. —_——— NEED OF HELP ANOUNCED Civil Service Commission Calls for Steward and Patternmaker. A steward Is needed at the Freed- men’s Hospital, according to an an- nouncement of the Civil Service Com- mission. The position pays $960 a year, plus the bonus of $20 a month.

A requirement is at least one vear's experience similar to that of assistunt to hotel-'steward, when “The | yyeh as the preparation of food, re- | celving. checking and issuing food and other supplies, preparation of bills of fare, cte. z The commission also states that the Department of Agriculture is in need of a patternmaker. The salary of thix position is $1.500 a year, plus the bonus of $20. For this position the rating will be on physical ability and training and experience.

The forms of adulteration most frequently found nowadays affect the pocketbook more often’ than the health Subatitution of Ingredients. “The two most common forms of adulteration are the substitution of cheaper ingredients for higher-priced ones, the cheapened product being sold under the name and usually at the price of the more expensive prod- vet, and the use of partly decomposed .

COURT JUSTIGES FOREGD EASTER RECESS Will Suspend Sessions Good Fri- day, to Resume Business Fol- lowing Monday. ie justices of the District Supreme Court will not take the usual Easter s this vear. All the sessions of the court will suspend for Good Fri- day. but will reassemble Easter Mon- day. rec Strenuous efforts are being made by the court to clear up the con- gested dockets. Great inroads have been made in the number of pending equity cases and the law calendar is 50 nearly up to date that it has been found necessary to prepare a supplemental list f seventy-two cases, which have become at issue since the January calendar was mada last December. Beginning with the ril _term there will be a criminal calendar, which is an innovation. Ry this means, it Is expected, a larye amount of deadwood will be elimi- nated from the criminal dockets. Justice Hoehling, who has nca finished the cases assigned to hix on the January law calendar, will take over all the cases on the suppicmen- tal list without regard to odd or even numbers. April 3 next he will have a preliminary call of all the cases on this new list. One of the cases on this new s was filed as late as February, 1923, and probably have a chance to be tried during May. This will establish a new record for dispatch of litigation in the District. PREHISTORIC ANIMALS DEPICTED IN PICTURES The romance and {nterest to be found in such a seemingly dry busi- ness as digging up the bones of creatures that lived millions of years ago was demonstrated to members of the National Geographic Society last right by Arthur S. Coggeshall, who described and showed motion pictures of operations carried bn by a group of scientists in the desert country near Vernal, Utah. Some -of the finest skeletons of huge anclent reptiles ever found have been dug from these quarries and the federal government has set apart a reserva tion there as the Dinosaur nationai monument. Motion pictures showed the work of scientists in removing from the rocks petrified bones weighing several tones, work in the laboratory where the surrounding rock is carefully chipped away, and the huge frame- work of the restored specimens. = Some of these great lizards weighed 40 tons and were 100 feet long, Mr. Cog- geshall declared. He pointed out. Kowever, that huge as they were they did not reach the sfze of the largest of today, the whale, Life-like battles between’ the great lizards of long ago were shown in motion pictures which seemed to record even the agitated breathing of the struggling creatures. The lecturer explained shat the pictures were mad- from small plastic models whose positions were altered between exposures. pld_running of the film produced the falthful simulation of life.

James Woodson, Colored, Con- { victed of Dry Law Violation. A motion case of the mes Woods for a mew trial in the United States against | colored, tried and | convicted last week violation of | the national prohibition law, st been filed in the United States branch | jof Police Court with Judge John P.! McMahon, who heard the case, by 3 Collins, attorney for the de- fendant and will be argued on a| day to be fixed upon by the court, within the time limit of rules of| fifteen days. Attorney Collins _said d vesterday the jury that tried convicted Woodson was illegally constituted | and therefore its verdict should be without effect and set aside. i Woodson a Codefendant. Woodson was a codefendant with |3, Ottoway Holmes, the wealthy col- jored owner of the E. Maiison Hall excursion boat. Holmes was acquit- ted while Woodson was convicted on two counts of making eales on the boat. possession and transportation of whiskles. Mr. Collins'’ argument against the alleged illegal constitution of the Jury will be that February 13 Judie Robert Hardison, in the District of Columbia_branch’ of the police conrt, dismissed from the jury I Me Carthy and L. W. Rea, regular mem- bers of the jury, for what the court aw fit at the time to designate as disrespect to the court, in that whilg, the court was instructing a jury in which the two young men sat they were seen to be in conversation. Three days later these jurors were restored to their places on the jury and have been serving, when called, on juries in both the United States and District of Columbia branches of the court since—one of them serving on the Woodson jur. Attorney’s Contention. Mr. Collins contends that when the court discharged these two jurors their official connection ended with the jury and that it was illegal, and without right of law, for the court to reinstate them, the contention being that they should have been regularly drawn, as required by law, by the | i jury commission and by that body certified to the court as men drawn for jury service. | i PUBLIC LIBRARY FACTOR | IN DEVELOPMENT WORK !
