Artificial silk has become so popular that its production now exceeds the production of natural silk. In 1924 about 80,000,000 pounds of the artifi- clal grade were produced, ‘while of natural silk from the worm there were only about 70,000,000 pounds produced. The price of artificial silk is about cne-third of the cost of genuine silk. Only about one-fifth of the artificial or fiber silk goes into hosiery. The many bankruptcies in Germany in the last year have thrown a large amount of second-hand office furniture on the market. bk > eodeoeoooerds EST. 1857 goeleoeode Friendly Service When we handle & case, there is u feeling of friendly co-operation and carefulnsss which has won us many satis fied patrons.

Experts Find The term “busy hee” is a mis- nomer, experts of the Department of Agriculture have concluded after elaborate tests in apiaries. The honey bee is not busy, she just looks busy, they say. As a matter of fact, the depart ment's scientists declare the honey bee spends more time in the hive than she does outside hunting nectar. She only malkes 31.65 trips during her lifetime and gathers only eight-tenths of a gram of nectar. Individually she is of small importance, they assert., as it re- quires the work of 567 bees a life- time to produce a pound of nectar, which has to be evaporated before it is turned into honey.

Local Women Live See Triumph After Bitter Struggle. to Three-quarters of a century ago a group of women, with a common ob- Ject, shocked the world by announcing they believed in equal rights for wom- en under the law and that in pursu- ance of this conviction they had or- ganized to fight for woman suffrage. Their pronouncement was met with the same derision on many sides that greets any revolutionary idea involv- ing a radical departure from custo- mary standards of society. Even members of their own sex at first opposed them and held them up to ridicule but the little group, un- daunted, fought gn. And as the fight brogressed there came, occasionally, new recruits. Years passed, a decade slipped away, @ score of years went by, and still the struggle persisted. Some of the lead- ers came and went with the passing of time, though some, with determined Spirit that bore them on and enabled them to stand the mental and physical strain of what often appeared to be a losing contest, remained to guide the newcomers. Two Live to See Climax. At least two of those pioneers in the fight for women have lived to see their life ambitions accomplished. Next Thursday they will participate in the final move of the 76-year-long battle— the counting of the spoils. The recording of the ups and downs over that prolonged period will take place at a “looking backward” lunch- eon to be held at 1 p.m. in the Wash ington Hotel. It will be, perhaps, the last meeting of the National Amer- ican Woman's Suffrage Association— the organization which fought its way to victory in behalf of women of America. ~ The two venerable guests will be Mrs. Hester M. Poole, 92 years old, of 1713 Kilbourne place, and Mrs. Ida Husted Harper, author of the “Life and Work of Susan N. An thony,” who lives at the headquar- ters ‘of the American Association of University Women, 1634 I street.

Hendley, president of the Susan B.

Patrick’s Abil- ity to Perfect Service. A rather tall, heavy, sun-tanned brigadier general will walk into his office as assistant chief of Army Air Service next week, and proceed to carry out the orders of Maj. Gen. Ma- son M. Patrick, chief of the Army Air Service. This addition to Building will be James E. Fechet, known ~ throughout the Army Air Service now as “Col. Jim,"” and soon 10 be “Gen. Jim.” And when he sits down to his desk, just vacated by Brig. Gen. William Mitchell, who walks from the office with the rank of colonel and goes to Texas, whence Gen. Jim came, the public need not expect a new air policy. “I'm here to carry out Gen. Pat- rick's orders,” declared Col. Fechet yesterday. I believe Gen. Patrick can make this the best Air Service possible and I hope to help him do it. Has Been Pilot for Years. From the manner of his speech, the flash of his eyes and his white teeth against a Texas-tanned face furrowed with deep lines, the impression is given that the American public can rest assured no one can “‘put anything over” on Gen. Jim. He's an air man who has been a pilot for many years the Munitions and the “kids” in the Air Service will | testify that he’s a good one, too. The two greatest issues and ques- tions before the Army Air Service were commented on briefly by Col. Fechet to The Star's representative. The separate Air Service proposition finds Col. Fechet an advocate of it, but, in his own words, “If it is a good thing it will work itself out in time— there'll be a demand and a need for it. In the old days there was no sep- arate Army and Navy; of War had control over what Navy there was. Now look at the Navy to- day. Time demanded a bigger Navy and that it be under its own control.” ‘Way Promotions Work. The other proposition, which is scheduled to be before Congress at the coming session in the form of a bill— a separate promotion list for the Army Air Service—will find Col. Fechet ardently supporting it. “I'll work for it and if they need me to talk about it before Congress I'll gladly go. The single list today does not work as well as it used to. Now when an air service major is killed, his number on the promotion list is filled by an of. ficer from some other branch. We create the vacancies and in the majority of cases the other branches profit by it as far as promotion is concerned. When it was apparent that Gen. Mitchell would not be reappointed the | younger officers drew up a list of can- didates of their choice, and it can be said authoritatively that in virtually every case Col. Fechet's name led the list. " “I don't know of another man I'd rather see get the job” was and still is the universal statement throughout the service. Liked By Younger Men. The younger officers of the Air Serv- ice (and that means almost the entire service) are not strong for military rank, pomp and ceremony, and when a man like Col. Fechet comes in, their midst they do not have to stiffen up, speak in serious tounes and “yes, yes,” the officer along. When Col. Fechet goes out to fly dirtiest pair of unionalls that can be found. A stranger would mistake him for a hard-boiled sergeant. While he looks hard-boiled and is hard-boiled when he is right, he's perfectly willing to be shown when he's wrong and act accordingly—to wit, the following in- stancs At Kelly Field, where he recently was in command, he sent out orders to have his plane warmed up as he wanted to go for a hop. A short time later he went out to the line attired in the dirty unionalls. In the Cock-pit “rubbing up” the motor was| 2 new mechanic. Col. Fechet walked up and asked if it was ready, and the mechanic, failing to recognize his commanding officer, snapped out: “Get away from here. manding officer’s’ ship. ing to fly with him, come back in 20 minutes. Then it'll be ready.” Gave Mechanic Surprise. If you're go- { ‘Al right,” said the colonel and re- turned to his office. A sergeant stand- ing nearby walked up to the mechanic after the colonel had left and said: “Say, do you know who that was you were talking to The mechanic thought it was a private who was to fly as ballast with the C. O. “That's Col. Fechet, the commanding officer of this fleld,” said the sergeant to the mechanic’s surprise. At the end of 20 minutes back came the greasy unionalls and the me- chanic was profuse with apologies. The colonel laughed and the incident was closed. Births Reported.
