But Jigjag’'s home is shin- ing with paint all men applaud, and creeping vines are twining around the lightning rod; and hollyhocks and gen- tian are planted by the fence, and blooms too sweet to mention make all things look immense. The walks are all untarnished by prints of muddy hoots, the cowsheds have been var- nished, and lacquered are the roofs. and mutter, d's dome, no trash and ruhbisl\ clutter the lawn about this home!

Better lighting, rezoning, member- ship and the colored bathing beach were the topics discussed at the monthly meeting of the Stanton Park Citizens’ Assoclation at the Peabody hool last night. The committes on ights reported the receipt of a let- ter from the Engineer Commissioner’s office announcing the early replace- ment of gas lighting by electricity on Massachusetts avenue east of Stan- ton Park to Nineteenth street, s promised in the 1924 budget. A request for rezoning the Massa- chusetts avenue Northeast area, at present limited to a 60-foot height, 1 the form of a rumored application for a permit for a 90-foot structure, was subjected to inquiry. "X resolution was adopted indorsing the efforts of colored citizens to se- cure a site for a bathing beach more accessible to the colored population than that proposed at Anacostia. The following officers of the asso- clation were present at the meeting: Harry N. Stull, president; D. F, Man. ning, secretary; Robert Larl Bler, financial secretary, and George Clag- ett, treasurer.

Increase in the British petroleum refining industry in 19256 materially retarded American foreign trade in these products, and the probability that imports of crude will increase and those of refined decline in proportion to its further development is viewed by the Commerce Department as of special interest to American exporters. Great Britain, the department point- ed out, has long been this country’s largest individual market for refined petroleum, but a study of the figures for last year showed imports of these products from the United States de- clined in every line except fuel oil. In 1925, 47 per cent of the gasoline, 68 per ‘cent of the kerosene, 80 per cent of the gas oil, 24 per cent of the fuel oil and 85 per cent of the British imported lubricants came from this country.
