/ B—8 =» ASK SCHOOL BUS Bradbury Heights Citizens Also Hit Practice of Double Fare. Better school bus service and bus transfers were asked by the Bradbury Heights Cftizens’ Association, meeting last night in the Bradbury Heights Methodist Church. Mrs. May Bussell, vice president of the association, reported 74 children were on a school bus one morning re- cently. “Our regular buses refuse to pick up school children. This means that some children are late or have to get rides to school, the nearest of which is 8 miles away,” she said. ‘The second fare on transferring to any bus from the. Washington, Marl- boro and Annapolis Co. bus which serves their community, was opposed by the association. Mrs. Bussell said that a recent public utilities decision required bus lines accepting passengers in the District to issue transfers to other local lines. The W. M. & A. Co. has not complied, she said. President Henry W. Austin said that the service was generally good and that people were well pleased with it, but that the double fare was an un- necessary burden on the community. He said a transfer would aid mate- rially in solving Bradbury Heights transportation problems. Bad road conditions on Hillside road and Chafin street southeast were criti- cized. A sewer on Forty-sixth street from H street to Hillside road southeast was asked, Cecil Jones pointing out that 10 homes would be built as soon as a sewer is completed. An old request to have the street lights on Ridge road southeast re- placed was reaffirmed, as was a re- quest to complete Ridge road from ‘Texas avenue to Anacostia road south- east. Austin was elected president for the coming year to succeed Harry W. Weikel, who was chosen treasurer. Dean Thompson was selected secre- tary and Mrs. Bussell vice president. The delegates to the Southeast Council will ke chosen at the next meeting. FU. TURE [ ¢ b ; B k |3 A CARTER TABB. RENTON has been all ex- citement and gaiety today with its two-day horse show getting under way this morning at 9 o'clock. There are more high-class hunters and show horses gathered here than have ever been seen before at this, the most important hunter show in America. Championship horses are all over the place. Heading the list is Mrs. John Hay Whitney's mare, Spring Hope, | who has won many ribbons and cham- pionship ribbons, and Mrs. George | P. Greenhalgh's Hunter’s Choice, al- ready the winner of three champion- ships this Summer and I don't know how many reserve ribbons. Mrs. John Hanna of Mentor, Ohio, is showing Big John, winner of the champion- ship at Warrenton another year and winner of a championship at Madi- son Square Garden, New York. Mrs. Ellsworth Augustus of Willoughby, Ohio, will show her well-known Chatter Chat, a horse schooled and ridden by Mrs. Cary Jackson of Kes- wick and the winner of many tri- colored ribbons. A new champion on the list that won over Spring Hope and Hunter's Choice at the recent Orange, Va., show is Hopeful, owned by Ernest Redmon of Middleburg. This is a big, flashy looking chestnut, | the winner of five firsts besides the champion ribbon at Orange. And so0 excitement runs high with | these and many more horses present | that have been champions. We are | all wondering and speculating about | which one will be champion here. | But who can tell—there may be a| dark horse hidden away here to take | BEDDING . . . DRAPERIES . .
