Consolidation of St. Paul's Lutheran
Church and Luther Place Memorial
Church, the two foremost congregations
of the Lutheran faith in Washington
and the South, Is again being consid
ered. It Is reported. Members of both
congregations are discussing tho revival
of the plan to make mo Lutl:cr Place
edlQce the great Lutlieran cathedral of
the Capita L
Indlv-ldual discussion of tho church
union Is as far as tho plan has pro
gressed, however.
"The consolidation may bo worked
out," said Martin L. Fries, a. member
of the Luther Place Church council.
No Official Action.
William H. Flnckel, chalunan of the
church council and of the pastor supply
committee, says no immediate official
action Is considered.
The vacancy in tho pastorate of the
Luther Place Chuich, caused .by the
1 eiignation last month of tno Rev. Loyd
C Douglas, has revived the rumor. A

'i hey are the only clergymen consid
ered as candidates.
"Mother" Church.
St. Paul's is the "mother" church of
the District, of which the Luther
Place Church was originally a
branch.
The Rev. John T. Huddle, pastor of
St Paul's, today declared he had
heard nothing of the proposed union.
St Paul's has a large congregation,
but is encroached upon by growth
of the business district, being situ
ated at Eleventh and H streets north
west. A meeting of the Luther Place
Church council, October 2, is planned
to discuss selection of a new pastor,
but no immediate action Is expected.
The Rev. Milton Valentine, of Phila
delphia, editor of the Lutheran Ob
server, will preach next Sunday at
tho church.

Frosts and Rains Are
Prediction for Week
The Weavlicr Bureau predicts possible
frosts and rain for Washington as well
:is the country in general this week.
A disturbance central over Iceland will
make Europe feel unsettled conditions
similar to those predicted for thW
country.
East of the Rocky mountains tho
temperuture will average below the sea--onal
normal. The frosts may not com
as far south as the District of Colum
bia but the Northern districts are like
ly to be nipped, and the reflex will be
felt here. The South Atlantic and Eaec
Gulf coasts are promised Immunity
from the cold.
The unsettled conditions for tho
country east of the Rockies is brewing
over the Western plateau It will send
rain during the early and middle da s
of the week, and the low temperature
on the last days, according to Chief
"Willis L. Moore's bulletin.
Will Move Supplies.

Advt,
ElRht cents a pound Is the new hlgh
record price many Washington houso
wlvso are paying today for sugar.
Another hoist In the wtiolesalo price
nf sugar, from $7 to $7.23 per hundrod
welght, is reported today by brokors.
Some larger grocers continue selling at
Vi cents per pound, but S cents Is said
to be the general price In small stores,
wlare the Imajority of housekeepers
buy.
Twenty-five-cent sacks of sugar have
dwindled to a secant three pounds. In
many stores, it Is said, because of the
acute 8Uar famine.
Coffee, too, Is soaring in price, the
dealers report today. A raise of 2 cents
a pound was ordered this morning on
some grades.
Importation of beet sugar Is said to
imminent.
Not before November are lower prices
for sugar expected, a Washington
broker said today. Then tho new crops
of best sugar can be obtained, as no
relief Is In sight from cane sugar re
fineries. A complete crop failure In France and
part failure in Cuban cane plantation?
is the direct cause of the present fam
ine. Some of the Southern refineries
have cut their "meltlnes" from 50.00-j
to :5,000 pourds a day and some smaller i
refineries have closed down entirely,
unable to set sugar cane.
Beet sujear is now being ground out
at the factories In the West and may
keep prices from going higher, Wash
incton dealers hope.
But Vz to S cf-nts per pound Is tho
price ashingtonlans must pay In
definitely, the grocers declare.
Sale of Knott Church
Postponed One Month
Sale of the church formerly tenanted
by the Rev. J. O. Knott at Warrtn
ton, Va., which was to have tak?n
place today, was postponed until a
month hence. The land on which the
building is located may revent to the
mortgage holder.
"I had hoped that the church would
be able to go on." said the Rev. Mr.
Knott in Washington today, "but the
trustees have been too much discour
aged by the outrageous treatment
which I received at the hands of the
trial board."
The Rev. Mr. Knott was tried during
August on the charge of having been
In company of a young woman for
whom, he says, he was trying to find
employment.
Iowa May Have a
Presidential Primary
Iowa is likely to be added to the
States in which there will be an ex
pression cf Presidential preference by
the Republican voters. Walter L.
Hauser, in charge of progressive head
quarters here, has written a number
of letters to Iowa, In which he has
urged the wisdom of such a primary.
Mr. Hauser Is convinced that If the
voters of Iowa are permitted to ex
press themselves there will be a solid
delegation from the State for La Fol-lette.
Declaring parents of school children
arc called upon to meet too many un
necessary expenses. Dr. W. M. Da,vld
son, superintendent of nohools, today
stroncly Indorsed Mrs. E. 8. Mussey's
campaign for simpler dressing among
Klrlo and declared he Intended to ex
tend the economy Idea to dances,
parties, and othr social functlono of
the high -schools.
Full dress sultn affected by very young
boys, as well as the extravagant gowns
worn by high school girls. In tho orlnlon
of the superintendent, ore out of place.
Through the principals of the high
school, as well as through appeals to
the parents by means of Ae home and
school associations. Dr. Davidson hope
to make his appeal for simpler dressing
and less expensive amusements.
"J was glad to hear that a halt had
already been calleil on the graduation
go-.vns which make that cent a burden,
instead of a red-letter day," the super
intendent said, "ana It would be a flno

A FEW FACTS
BY
DR. VAUGHAN
One Class of Work (the best); One Price (the lowest, work con
sidered), has been my motto for twelve years. Thousands of my pa
tients know this, but circumstances over which I have had absolute
ly no control have made It necessary for me to make changes In lo
cation. In order to fix in tho minds of the public my new and permanent Dental Home, where I
have secured a lease for a long term of years, I am taking the usual and approved business meth
od ADVERTISING. Aftor this Is accomplished I shall, as In the past, depend on the high class of
work and satisfied patients to speak for me.
A Purpose
It has long been my desire to establish In Washington a larsre, thor
oughly equipped modern dental office, where people could go with confi
dence and get the Dent There la at FAIR PniCES. In presenting to the
public my offices at 307 SEVENTH ST. N.W.. I have accomplished, that

A full-fledged printing establishment,
Including a linotype machine and a
email press, with pupils for compositors
and prossmen, Is proposed for McKln
ley Manual Training School.
This Idea was a pet project of the
former principal, Dr. Myero, ard Is be
ing Investigated by the now principal,
Frank Daniel. Tho work to be done Is
primarily the publication of the "Hand
and Mind," tho school paper, which It
was docldod to Issue monthly this year.
Formerly the paper was a quarterly
publication. It also Is Intended, If the
scheme materializes, to print bulloUns.
stationery and all school printing In the
school shop.
Tho shop. If established, also Is In
tended to make It possible for pupils
to becomo thoioughly acquainted with
the art of printing and publishing.
"The main drawback is tho lack of
a room for such an office," said Mr.
Daniel In discussing the m-olect todav.
"If we can find floor space for such an
establishment, I then will consider
means of getting money for tha pur
chase of equipment."
Benning Gets Water
Latter Part of Week
Benning will be supplied with water
the lattfr part of the week, according
l an Announcement of officials of the
atcr Department today.
The mw twenty-'nch main will be
completed within U.ut time, and work
Immedlattlv will begin on the extension
cf the main to Kenllworth. It Is ex
pected the la'.t-jr improvement will be
completed before cold weather.
P.eeord time was inj'de by the Water
Department In tl.e laying of the Ben
ning main. The work began August 1.
Since that time 3,000 feet of pipe have
b.er laid, beginning at the Intersection
of Fent.Hjivanla and Minnesota avenues
fouthe-iNt. The work Is being done un
der an appropriation of 14X.00O.
Fire hidruntp and service mains will
be installed in both Benning and Kenll
uorth as fast as there Is a demand for
them.
'I Want to Hear All Sides of
Question,'' Says
Davidson.
"I want to hear every side of this fra
ternity question, and that means I want
to hear .from pupils who nre members
of the frats."
This announcement today frpm Dr.
W. M. Davidson means that within two
weeks members of high school fraterni
ties, as well as representatives of the
sororities, will bo called to the office of
tnt, Superintendent of Schools to de
fend their organizations.
"One point In favor of the fraterni
ties here," Dr. Davidson said, "Is
that I have had no Intimation from any
source that drinking bouts are Indulged
In at fraternity gatherings. Morally,
the fraternities so far have clean slates,
the question of their undue influence
In school politics Is bo tar the only
charge against them."
Thfs statement was further confirmed
by A. T. Stuart, former superintendent,
who said no charges of drinking, gam
bling, or other such offenses had been
brought against the fraternity men.
That the outlook for the continuance
of the secret organizations Is hopeful,
also Is attested by Dr. W. S. Small,
principal of Kastern.
"As long as the fraternl'Jes are run
as strictly social organizations." he told
his pupils assembled in exhibition hall,
"and do not try to play school politics
and enter other objectionable features.
It b my opinion that tne school authori
ties will continue to sanction them."
The Magic of Gold Dust
Gold Dust Is primarily a vegetable-oil
soap In powder form added to which
are certain other cleansing and purl
fvlmr ingredients that make it work
more aulcklv and thoroughly than soap
ever can. Gold Dust lathers Instantly
In hot or cold water hard cr soft. It
Is simply amazing to see how Gold Dust
dissolves greae and dirt at the same
time driving away the germs; it makes
things safo and sanitary as well ns
clean. For cleaning anything and every
thing around the house, nothing is so
quickly effective as Gold Dust. It works
like magic.
Per Capita, Debt of
Country Is $10.83
That the per capita debt of the
United States In 1911 is but 110.83,
whereas at the close of the war In
1865 it was 176.98, is shown by the
report issued-today by the Bureau of
Statistics in (the Department of Com
merce and Labor on the material re
sources of the country during the
period 1800-1911. In 1800 the per cap
ita debt of tho United States was
$15,63. ,
The interest charge per capita
amounted to 64 cents in 1800, $4.12 In
1862. and 23 cents In 1912. Each per
son in the United States has $34.35 in
circulation this year, as against $4.99
In 1800, according to the report.
Exports of domestic merchadlse
have increased from $32,000,000 in
1800 to $2,000,000,000 in 1911. Imports
were $91,000,000 in 1800. Now they
aro $1,600,000,000.
