C., Feb. 15. — The hotel of tipless fame — the Grace Dodge hotel for wome in Washington, now faces a dilemma. "What is to be done," ask the hotel staff, "about tips left in our absence?" The "no tipping" verdict of the hotel is being taken so seriously by the entire staff that a voluntary meeting was called by them to consider this question. A poll revealed that they stood unanimously on giving under the plate gratuitous to a worthy object. After some discussion on adopting an orphan, it was voted to donate such tips to the Phyllis Wheatley, the Colored Y. W. C. A., most of the staff being colored. The successful co-operations gained for nontipping, Miss Mary Augusta Lindsley, the manager, explains, is due to the fact that all wages are scaled to make its absence both practical and desirable. Any employee seen accepting a tip subject to immediate dismissal. The Grace Dodge hotel was opened by the National board, Y. W. C. A. last October in Washington, just opposite union station plaza, exclusively for the woman visitor to the capitol. It boasts 400 rooms equipped with many innovations for her convenience.

These are some of the fantastic possibilities suggested by Monsieur Louis Breguet, a wizard of aviation engineering and one of the greatest builders of aircraft in the whole world. He was asked to set forth something of the possibilities of the near future. He said: "Aviation of the future will be determined by the necessities of commercial aerial lines. These necessities are to know— 1. How to effect without stop a flight of over 2,100 miles which would carry us in a single flight across the Atlantic from Cork to Newfoundland. 2. How to secure a commercial speed of 120 miles an hour. This would battle high winds and avoid too great delays in time tables. 3. How to possess a wireless installation permitting the crew to send and receive messages constantly. 4. How to arrange for the comfort of passengers, especially night voyages." PASTOR SAYS HE'S BAD CHECK VICTIM Complaint having been filed with the district attorney that Edward W. McCarren had passed a fictitious check for $10 upon Rev. F. T. Porter, pastor of Santa Ana Christian church, a search was expected to be made for the man, who was formerly employed at a Santa Ana garage. McCarren, it was said, asked Rev. Porter to bash the check late last Saturday, saying that his wife's mother was seriously ill at Long Beach, requiring his presence there, and that he could not cash the check at the garage, where he claimed to be employed, and which was closed at that hour. The minister thereupon accommodated him. Learning later that the name J. S. Sims, which was signed to the check, was fictitious, and also discovering, he said, that McCarren had passed such checks before, Rev. Porter filed complaint with the authorities.

The snow was brought by The Ambassador Management from the top of the San Bernardino mountains, where the truck was held up for three weeks on account of impassable roads. When it arrived in Los Angeles, however, the flowers were blooming and most of the children around it were wearig light summer clothes.

ACCIDENTS CAUSING BIG ECONOMIC LOSS NEW YORK, Feb. 15. — In the year 1919 there were 23,000 fatal accidents in industry, about 575,000 non-fatal accidents causing four weeks or more of disability and, 3,000,000 accidents causing at least one day's disability. That are too many, many too many, according to L. P. Alford, who presented a report at the tenth annual convention of the National Safety Council at Boston recently. Mr. Alford, editor of Management Engineering, was a member of Herbert Hoover's committee on the elimination of waste in industry. His report to the National Safety Council was based on the result of the investigations made for the committee. According to the estimates, the time lost from industrial accidents in 1919 amounted to 296,000,000 days, with an economic loss to the country of about $852,000,000. At least 75 per cent of these losses might have been avoided, with a saving to employers of $250,000,000 and $500,-000,000 to employes.

This greater giant is Antares, and Prof. Henry Norris Russell describes it in the Scientific American. Its diameter was measured at Mount Wilson observatory, with Michelson's interferometer. Antares is that bright red star in the constellation of the Scorpion. The apparent diameter of Antares is 0.039, a little less than that of Betelgeuse, but the real diameter is far larger, being 420 million miles, or half as big again as that of Betelgeuse and twice the diameter of the earth's orbit. It is so far away that its light, traveling at 182,000 miles a second, takes no less than 370 years to reach the earth. Anaheim Battery Co.
