Thrill of a Lifetime. “It was a thrill that comes once in a lifetime,” Miss Bradshaw declared today, in discussing her selection as the chaperon. *I was sitting at m: desk wondering how 1 would patch up some Summer vacation plan: In the most matter-of- fact voice, Mr. Leigh asked me if 1 would be able to act as chaperon. Of coursg, 1 wanted to tell him ‘ves’ im mediately, but 1 had to ask him to await my obtaining the necessary permission from Supt. Ballou." Miss Bradshaw had been in the school service since 1901.

At the outset the association had only a small inconte, he s: adding that he took the responsibility of making no report. { “At that time the Anti-Saloon | League was reported to be spending two or three millions a year, and our fund was so small that I thought it would hurt the work to make a re- port,” he continued. The income _gradually increased until the ional and State organi- zations were handling a total of §25,- 000 a month The witness estimated that during | e first six years of the life of the association collections for the national association av ged $36,000 annually, and those for the local nizations had averaged $120.000 a year.

Then ¢ in April I had Charles S. Wood, our representative in Philadel- phia, come here for consultation. We then went back to Pennsylvania and consulted our members as to whether we should declare for Willlam .

During the campaign we sent out two other let- ters, one asking for money to spend in Pennsylvania and elsewhere.” | Stay d that all contributions from ylvania were sent to the parent organization which spent it. Some mass meetings were held and $3.508 was sent to Wood from head- quarters here to pay the cost. Also Backed Beidleman. “We advocated the election of Vare, and Mr. Bonnewill, a wet, as the Democratic candidate for governor, and Mr. Beidleman for the Repub- lican nomination for governor,” said Stayton. “\Was that all that was spent in Pennsylvania?” “Yes, that was all.” “Did you have any watchers or vassers at the polls?” We did not.” “Is your organization getting ready for the election in Pennsylvania?” “We are doing only the routine work. We don’t feel we have to spend much money in Pennsylvania, and so can keep the money for less fertile pastures.” Charles S. Wood and two clerks make up the pald organization in Pennsylvania, Stayton said. Assailed Gov. Pinchot. “What was the nature of the litera- ture you sent into Pennsylvania?” King persisted. “As I recollect the one letter sent out sald Pinchot had intellectual in- firmaties which prevented any one from supporting him. It said Senator Pepper lacked moral courage to take sides on an issue. It said Vare had been assoclated with a somewhat vi- clous element in Philadelphia and would have to bear some of the odium of that, but that he had the moral courage to take sides in an issue.” cal Stayton's examination still was in- complete when the committee re- cessed until 2 p.m. During the recess it was disclosed that the Senate ser- geantat-arms had sought unsuccess- fully to bring to Washington as wit- nesses Frank X.

WEDNESDAY, ADVISORY COUNCIL INDORSES INQUIRY Proposed Probe of District Government Approved by Board. The concurrent resolution introduced by Representative Gibson, Republican, rmont, providing for a sweeping in vestigation of the District govern- ment by a joint commjttee of th House and Senate during the Summer recess, was unanimously indorsed last night by the Citizens” Advisory Coun- cll. Actlon was taken on recommenda- tlon of Harry N. Stull, who pointed out that the resolution would pave the way for an investigation of “many things that have not yet been touched upon.” “This measure, if passed,” sald Mr. Stull, “will provide for the broadest kind of an inquiry. Not only methods of conducting District busi- ness, but the form of the District go ernment would be considered. There may result an amendment to the Con- stitution to provide another kind of a commission. The question of fiscal relations between the District and Federal Governments may be can- sed.” A letter from Chairman Zihlman of the House District committee com- mending the work of the council read by Chairman Jesse C. Suter. The letter came in reply to one from the council thanking Representative Zihlman's committee for the oppor tunity given the council to submit reports on District legislation. Mr. Zthiman's letter said: “The suggestions, advice and opin ions expressed by the council have been of great assistance to the com- mittee in congidering the many mat ters of local importance which have boen referred to us. You have en- deavored to reflect the sentiments, well as the best interests, of the city. Consideration of the estimated needs of the department heads of the Dis- trict government for the fiscal year 1927-1928 will be started by the coun- cil at its meeting next Tuesday, it was announced by Chairman Suter. The council had hoped to begin this task last night, but the estimates had not been submitted.

The United States is investigating an order issued by the governor of Lower California, Mex., designed to prohibit persons, who are doing busi- ness in Mexico, from residing north of the international boundary. Ambassador Sheffield has been in- structed to inquire of the Mexico City government whether it has approved the order. It decrees that Americans doing business in Lower Californi and residing in the United ates must move their places of residence south of the border, or discontinue their business operations in Mexico. A bundred or more Americans in business principally in Mexicali and Tia Juana, the Lower California gov- ernor claims, reside in the United States and thereby earn their incomes from Mexico and spend them outside of that country. 1. £ LODGE HEADS NEW CIVIC GROUP, Elected President of Ameri- can University Park Citi- zens’ Association.

'. ““The Feet Are Mirrored In the Face” What a lot of truth there is in | this statement by a prominent physician and editor. Dr. C. J. Ga_ddi\' says: “If the feet are unhappr, you are unhappy throughout. The feet express youth and virility and good nature more than, perhaps, any other part of the body. The feet are mirrored in the face. “A troubled foot makes a troubled brow; worried feet mean tired eves broken arches precede a broken coun tenance. Supple, youthful feet predis- pose towards mental suppleness. The body helps the mind, as the mind helps the body. Both must come along together. If anv part of the body is disturbed, maladjusted, it must | show up in the mind and spirit.” To keep the feet and the face happy, one needs the right foot- wear. The casy comfort of the Cgesr is the result of a design in har- mony with the needs of the foot in action as well as repose. The flexible Cantilever shank or arch, instead of the usual stiff shank. allows the foot muscles to flex freely, permitting the exercise necessary to keep them well and strong. Come in and see how comfortable the Cantilever feels and how well the attractive styles look on your foot. Sold by us exclusively.
