U.S. HELD FIGURING IN SUPPLIANT ROLE For First Time Since War, Is Seeking Favor; Swanson at Geneva to Explain. By ALBERT W. FOX. What is America willing to pay to have the League cof Nations ac- cept her reservations to the world court protocol? This is the question, in various forms, which dominates the ad- vance discussions of the European statesmen and diplomats, on the eve of the Geneva meeting to deter- mine whether or not some 40-odd world court members will unani- mously agree to accept the United States as a member despite the American reservations.

Supporters of the: proposal that the markets be transferred to a mid- city site near Convention hall mar- ket: ran second, while those voting in favor of the Eckington or Patter- son tract site were so much in the minority as virtually to eliminate that site from further consideration as a possible popular choice.

Not only did it lag far behind both the midcity and Southwest sites in the number of votes, but explanations with which voters accompanied their bal- lots made it clear that regardless of which of the two principal sites]. were selected, they were opposed to selection of the northeast Pat- terson tract, First public indication of organ- ized opposition to prevent selection of that site was contained in an announcement of a special meeting of the Benning Citizens associa- tion called for Thursday to formu- late a protest against it.

President Calles conferred for more than an hour and a half this eve- ning with two high Catholic Church dignitaries relative to the religious situation. They were the Most Rev.

New York, Aug. 21.—D. Roy Newcomb, who is 28 years old and lives in Brooklyn, is troubled by in- somnia, and his inability to sleep is the reason he started five fires in South Brooklyn early this morn- ing, according to the Fort Hamilton police. The first fire occurred about 3 a. m., in an automobile parked in front of 507 Senator street. An alarm was turned in and the fire engines responded. As the last flame flick- ered out Newcomb detached him- self from the interested group of spectators and approached Patrol- man Joseph Bonova, of the Fort Hamilton station. “I turned in the alarm for this fire,’’ he announced. ‘‘Splendid,’’ replied the patrol- man warmly. “You must indeed have been on the qui vive to have warned us so quickly.’’ A few minutes later the engines snorted up to an apartment house at 606 Sixty-ninth street, in re- sponse to another alarm. Flames were pouring from a baby carriage in the hallway, but the experience the firemen had had with the auto- mobile stood them in good stead and they extinguished the blaze in the second vehicle. Patrolman Bonora, who had come with the engines, felt some one tug- ging at his arm. It was Newcomb. “I turned in the alarm for this fire,” he said. “Well, well,”’ said Patrolman Bo- nora. “I can show you three more fires, too,’” continued Newcomb. The police said later that New- comb admitted starting all the fires so that he could turn in legitimate alarms and watch the engines come. He was unable to sleep, he said, and it was a cheap and exciting form of entertainment. He was arrested, charged with arson, and held for further questioning. 1? HURT, ?

Mexicans Fire on 30 world war Uncle Sam is a suppli- ant before the league powers: in the sense that he is asking for something from the league. Here- tofore the league has always been asking something of America, im- ploring America to come into the European field, to become part of the league machinery, to forgive or cancel debts, to assist Europe and humanity. America has never appeared in the role of seeking any particular favor which the league had the power to grant. Question of Special Rights. But now America wants the League of Nations to grant her a particular favor, namely to permit Uncle Sam to become a member of the world court with reservations which amend the court protocol and give the United States special rights which other powers do not enjoy. And, from the standpoint of international diplomacy, a nation which is a suppliant for any par- ticular thing causes the nation or nations which have the power to grant the suppliant’s desire to at once consider a quid pro quo. The more desirous the suppliant nation is of having its wish granted, the greater usually is the quid pro quo asked. This, diplomats say, Is axi- omatic in diplomacy of the present league brand. Thus, the league members are taking with a grain of salt all re- ports that President Coolidge and Secretary of State Kellogg do not care much whether the reservations are accepted or not _ The understanding at Geneva, as interpreted by diplomats here, is that the Coolidge administration has made the world court one of its major policies, that it was a dominant issue for many months and that it may be embarrassing to the United States government if the whole matter peters out into a flasco because of the refusal of the League of Nations to accept the reservations. .

The body was turned over to an undertaker, preparatory for burial in Baltimore. The coroner issued a certificate of death by suicide.

Watson, chief engineer of the District fire department, submitted to the com- missioners yesterday. The report continues: “The estimated loss during the vear was $1,268,954. This in an increase of $431,758 over the amount of loss for the pre- ceding vear. Practically the entire amount of increase was caused by damages resulting from a fire at the United States Army air station, Bolling field. Anacostia, January 26. which damage amounted to $399,740. “During the vear 3,647 alarms of fire were received, 769 in excess of the fiscal year 1925. False alarms numbered 297, but in only three cases could sufficient evidence be obtained for conviction. ‘Fifteen fires of wndoubtedly in- cendiary origin and 42 ol a picious nature were during the year. from fire and penalties imposed. Prevention Work Told. ‘“Fire-prevention work, under supervision of the fire mashal, has been continued and numerous fire hazards have been abated by his force. Inspection of schoois, apartment houses, hotels, and similar buildings be extended to include al] mercan- tile establishments, but it is not practicable to accomplish this with the present force. An augmented personnel to accomplish the desired result will be. recommended in fu- ture. but atépfresent it is felt other and more vital given preference. “The fire-fighting consists of about &00 vided into two equal force. men, shifts. is The off-duty men are subject to cal] in| cases of a fourth, fifth or sixth alarm or other emergency. and this reserve force is one of the chief advantages of the double-platoon idea. “Promptly reaching the off-duty platoon: has been more or less a problem of fire departments throughout the country. In Janu- ary, 1925. each officer and member of the District fire department was directed to provide himself with facilities for being reached by tele- phone when off duty. The bers are Kept in an index, revised | daily, at headquarters. Upon re- ceipt of a third alarm, headquarters immediately notifies the chief clerk and the staff at headquarters place themselves in readiness to call the off platoon by telephone if it be- comes necessary. Special Phone Lines Installed. ‘“RKour direct trunk telephone lines between the main telephone exchange and headquarters have been installed and the telephone company, immediately upon being notified of the contemplated calling of the off duty platoon, assigns special operators to these lines. “This plan produced excellent results upon every occasion of ils utilization and accomplished speedy reporting of the men who were off duty. The majority of men called report directly to the fire ground and are available for placing in ser- vice additional lines of hose, wagon and ladder pipes, etc. “The rescue squad, now in serv- ice at No. 2 engine house, has so proven its efficiency as to have be- come almost indispensable. An ad- ditional rescue squad should be pro- vided for service in the upper north- western section of the city, where the life hazard, in event of fire, is probably greater than in any other neighborhood and it is hoped that some means may be found in the near future for this augmentation of the service.’’ Chief Watson states in his re- port that other recommendations, involving additional funds for im- provement of service, are omitted, having been included in the depart- ment’s estimates for the 1928 budget.

V LOST, 7 RESCUED | WHEN VESSEL SINKS WVLAKE ERIE STORM | Lifeboat Containing Missing. Seamen Found Upside | Down by Steamer. | | ——_} MAITLAND’S CAPTAIN PRAISED BY REFUGEES Many Ships Report Difficulty in Navigation During Worst Wind in Years. Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 18 (By A P.).—Three members of the crew of the steamer Howard S. Gerken were believed tonight to have been drowned when the vessel sank 6 miles off Erie, Pa., early today after being battered in one of the worst storms on Lake Erie in years. The car ferry Maitland, of Ash- tabula, Ohio, rescued sixteen men from two lifeboats set adrift when the Gerken went down, and a fire- man, Herman Wageman, later was found floating in midlake in an un- conscious condition by coast guard cutter No. 142. He was taken to Ashtabula, where the-sixteen other survivors had received treatment ‘ for minor injuries. While the Maitland was taking off the occupants of the small boats at the height of the storm, one of them, containing Wageman and three companions, was torn from the side of the rescuing craft. Boat Found Upside Down. Throughout the day, the coast @uard crew and dozens of small craft ventured onto the calming waters of the lake, searching for the three men still missing after Wageman had been found. The discovery by the steamer Uranus of the lifeboat, floating upside down, apparently told the fate of the missing trio, and silence from Canada rendered incredible the slim hope that the men had been washed, possibly alive, onto the Canadian shore. Those believed drowned are: George McMinn, mate; Richard Freeman, watchman, and William Logan, derrick engineer, all of whose homes are said to be in Buf- falo, the craft’s port of registry. Among those rescued were Capt. John B. Gamble, of the Gerken, and Howard Gerken, owner. Gam- ble, whén brought to Ashtabula with the other survivors told a story of a despairing battle against what he termed “the worst storm in twenty years on Lake Erie,” prefacing his tale with unstinted praise of T. H. Heyman, acting cap- tain of the Maitland. To Heyman’s seamanship, Gerken asserted, he and his fifteen companions owed their lives. The day brought a stream of re- ports from cities situated at the eastern end of the lake, telJling of property damage done by the gale and recounting narrow escapes of small craft which had been caught in the near hurricane.

Le DE. cinttvetamnascussd Peggy Joyce Ignored With Ederle on Liner _ Cherbourg, France, Aug. 21 (By A. P.).—Gertrude Ederle, conqueror of the English chan- nel, was the whole show here to- day as she boarded the Beren- garia and sailed for home, She was in a merry mood and the- cynosure for all eyes as she mingled with the 1,100 first. class passengers who are going home witb her to New York. All the way down from Cher- bourg on the boat train from Paris, tourists swarmed through the corridors of the swaying ex- press train to get a glimpse of the American girl. On leaving the boat train Miss Ederle carried a balloon in one hand and a ukelele in the other but the crowds insisted on shaking hands just the same. For once Peggy Hopkins Joyce, who was also a passenger on the Berengaria, found herself ignored by the crowds and she walked up the gangplank un- heralded by clicking cameras. Even Jean Borotra, who is go- ing to America to battle for his country in the Davis tennis cup matches, was almost ignored by the crowds 4 . of the season lashed the Great Lake region all last night. Over Lake Erie the wind reached 60 miles an hour. The steamer Greater Buffalo, of the Detroit and Cleveland Naviga- tion Co.’s fleet, bound from Detroit to Buffalo, docked five hours late because of the storm. The North American, from Chi- cago, reported such a heavy off- shore gale that she was unable to make a scheduled stop at Cleveland. She received radio calls for assist- ance from the freighter Gerken, but could not safely turn and attempt to aid her. Out of her 450 passen- gers only 90 were able to eat dinner Friday night. The steamer Corona, of the Ca- nadian Steamship lines, Toronto to Lewiston, N. Y., was so badly battered Friday by the seas that she was withdrawn from the service to undergo repairs.

Murder, Was With Him Yesterday. Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 21 (By A. P.).—The murder of Don R. Mel- lett, Canton publisher slain in the midst of a vice crusade five weeks ago, is near solution, Howell Leuck, assistant United States district at- torney, insisted today. His asser- tion came on the heels of his an. nouncement that Federal warrants will be sought Monday for two Can- ton persons, a police official and a detective, on charges of conspiracy to violate the Federal prohibition law. Leuck stated that the persons whose arrest is’ contemplated are only remotely connected with the Mellett murder, but he regards them as important figures in the investigation of vice and crime con- ditions at Canton. Leuck. was also the source dur- ing the day for a statement that the alibi of Mazer, Canton under- world figure held on a direct charge of murdering Mellett and of con- spiring to violate the Volstead act, is being steadily torn down by in- vestigators at Canton.

The reso- lutions suggest penalties for ‘pirating’? messages, if the news agencies’ suggestions should be embodied in international law. Calling attention to the ex- tremely rapid development of wireless telegraphy and_ tel- ephony, the resolutions say that legislation concerning the copy- right of news transmitted by wireless has not kept pace in all countries, thus leading to confu- sion of the organization of wire- less. They ask that governments adopt legislation by which a re- ceiving station license would only give the right to receive dispatches from public broad- casting stations and trial sta- tions.

CORRUPT PRACTICE ACT OF 1925 NOW IN EFFECT Attack to Center on 13 Sup- porters of Michigan Senator Still in Race ——— Expenditures of senatorial can- didates threaten to eclipse other is- sués of the campaign in many States this fall. The Democrats propose to link together the quéstion of excessive expenditures by Republican eandi- dates in this year’s primaries, not- ably in Pennsylvania and Illinois, and votes of senators in the New- berry case. Until the investigations by the Reed senatorial committee dis- closed the expenditure of millions to secure Republican nominations, the Democrats had relied on the Newberry case to furnish one of their major issues. While the totals admitted by Republican candidates in Pennsyl- vania and Illinois have dwarfed the $198,000 which the Senate by for- mal action in the Newberyy case décared to be “contrary to sound public policy, harmful to the hgnor ana dignity of the Senate and dan- gerous to the perpetuity of free government,’ the Democrats will continue to urge the defeat of all outgoing Republican senators who voted to seat Truman H. Newberry as senator from Michigan in 1922. 25 Newberry Supporters Gone. Of the 46 senators, all Repub- licans, who voted to seat Newberry, 25 have already been eliminated in one way or another. Nine died in office, two of whom had ‘been reelected; two were not Candidiates for reelection, eight were defeated in 1922, two were defeated in 1924 and four met de- feat in primaries held thus far this year. The four to meet defeat in this year’s primaries were Senators McKinley, Illinois; Pepper, Penn- syivania; Stanfield, Oregon, and the late Senator Cummins, Iowa.

PREACHER POSSESSES WASHINGTON RELICS pa | property of George voted for Newberry are still in the field for relection this year. Two or three of them have close primary contests and may be eliminated be- fore election day. The Democrats propose to center their fire upon the others. The thirteen are Senators Smoot, Utah; Curtis, Kansas; Wadsworth, New York; Watson, Indiana; Lenroot, Wisconsin; Willis, Ohio; Cameron, Arizona; Ernst, Ken- tucky; Gooding, Idaho; Harreld, Oklahoma; Oddie, Nevada; Short- ridge, California, and Weller, Mary- land. Senators Curtis, Watson, Willis, Ernst, and Harreld have al- ready been renominated. _ Senators Smoot and Gooding come up for renomination in conventions, that of the latter being set for next Tues- day. Senator Shortridge comes up for renomination in primaries on August 31, Senators Lenroot, Cameron, and Oddie have their primaries on September 7 and Senator Wadsworth on September 14. The Weller primaries also will take place early in September. Democrats Gain Ammunition. There were two principal votes in the Newberry case, the first on the Norris substitute declaring Newberry not entitled to his seat, and the second on the Spencer- Willis resolution seating Newberry, but declaring expenditures of the proportions disclosed in the Michi- gan primary to be “contrary to sound publ*® policy, harmful to the honor and dignity of the Senate and dangerous to the perpetuity of a free government.”’ The Norris substitute was re- jected, yeas 41 to nays 46, and the Spencer-Willis resolution adopted, yeas 46 to nays 41. The align- ment on the two roll calls was identical. Although the senatorial investi- gation of campaign expenditures has been confined thus far to two States, the Democrats have _ ob- tained enough ammunition out of the facts disclosed to make a na tional campaign issue. They bot the large expenditures in Pennsyl- | Vania With the tariff issue on the theory that amounts contributed by large manufacturers who are bene- | ficiaries of the ,protective *tariff | prove to the satisfaction of the Democrats the iniduitious character of the Republican tariff policy. The large expenditures by Republican candidates in Illinois will be point- ed to as grossly excessive under the rule laid down by the Senate in the Newberry case. Law Fails to Cover Primaries. The election in November will be the first under the new Federal corrupt practices act of 1925. This legislation, which was attached in the Senate as a rider on the postal salary increase bill, signed by President Coolidge on February 28, 1925, attracted little public at- tention at the time it became law. The new act is a substitute for the Federal corrupt practices act of 1910, which was invalidated in part by the Supreme Court’s decision in the Newberry case. The limitations of expenditures provided in the new act apply only to the final election in November and not to expendi- tures in primary campaigns. The framers of the law accepted the majority opinion of the court in the Newberry case as placing a permanent obstacle in the way of regulation of expenditures in pri- mary campaigns by Federal legis- lation. Chief provisions of the present corrupt practices act are: Publicity of campaign contribu- tions and expenditures in the form of public reports by candidates and political committees, both before and after the election. Limit on Expenditures, Limitation of campaign expendi- tures by candidates under a new formula for determining maximum lawful expenditures—as a substi- tute for the $5,000 and $10,000 limitations of the corrupt. practices act of 1910. Prohibition (1) of campaign con- tributions by corporations and na- tional banks, (2) of the ‘ugé of 'Federal patronage or any other form of consideration in payment for votes in political campaigns. The law requires the filing by the national political committees, and every “organization which ac- ,cepts contributions or makes ex- "penditures for the purposes of in- fluencing’’ the resylts of elections in two or more States, of complete reports of their receipts and ex- penditures with the clerk of the House of Representatives. These { popu reports must be filed each year on Washington. Inset: WASHINGTON RELICS OWNED BY PREACHER Chairs, Knife, Fork and Vases Are in Possession of the Rev. R. B. Robinson. Two kitchen chairs, a knife, fork and two small vases, once the prop- erty of George Washington, are now in the possession of the Rev. R. B. Robinson, colored, of 607 Louisiana avenue northwest. The relics were given to Caroline Brunnum, great grandmother of the Rev. Mr. Robinson, when she was Martha Washington’s maid. Mrs. Brunnum gave them to her daughter, Lucy Ann Harrison, who died in Alexandria, Va., in 1895, at the age of 99 years. An arm chair, given to Mrs. Brun- num, was sold by her daughter, but was later turned over to the Ladies Society of Mount Vernon and placed in their collection. The Rev. Mr. Robinson is in his eightieth year. the first day of January and be tween the first and tenth days of March, June and September and in election years between the tenth and fifteenth days and on_the fifth day next preceding the general election. The financial statenients must contain the names and addresses of all persons who have contributed | more than $100 and the sum total of all contributions, the names and addresses of all persons who have been paid more then $10 and the sum total of all expenditures. Similar statements are required from all persons who ‘make ex- penditures of more than $50, other than throygh political committees, for the purpose of infiuencing the election of candidates in two or more States. Provides for Reports. Each candidate for the Senate and House is required between the tenth and fifteenth day next preced- ing and within 30 days after the election to file with the secretary of the Senate or the clerk of the House reports showing a correct and item- ized account of all contributions received by him or on his behalf for the purpose of influencing the re- sult of the election, with the names of contributors and a correct and itemized account of all expenditures made by him or on his behalf for the purpose of influencing the re- sult, with the names of all persons who received payments. The candidate is required, in addition, to state the name,address and occupation of every person to whom he has made a promise “prior to the closing of the polls on the day of the election relating to the appointment or recommendation for appointment * * * to any public or private position or employment for the purpose of securing support for his candidacy.’”’ Any such state- ment would be a confession of vio- lation of the law. If no such prom- ise has been made, “‘that fact shall be specifically stated.” The new corrupt practices act places no limitation upon the ex- penditures that may be made by national political committees. Un- less the laws of their States pre- scribe a@ smaller maximum, candi- dates may make expenditures up Rinses “1.

EUROPE ASKS PRICE FOR RESERVATIONS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) to prevent this fiasco. This is what a number of the league powers are now trying to find out. The league’s' position, while awaiting further infimations as to what price America might pay, is that the American reservations obviously raise obstacles which ap- pear all but insurmountable. Reser- vation No. 5, it is emphasized from Geneva, mutually gives the United States a suzerainty over all the other powers in so far as advisory opinions asked for by the league counsel are concerned because America by merely claiming an interest in any subject matter can forbid the court to act and the court members agree to this veto power in advance if they accept the fifth reservation. Would Stop Machinery. It does not have to be a case where America has an interest or where the court would have the power to decide as to whether America had an interest. The mere claim of an interest by America, no matter how unreasonable such claim may seem to the rest of the powers, suffices to stop the court machinery. And, it is pointed out, America can claim an interest, direct or indirect, in every controversy on the face of the globe. Consequently, the league mem- bers are in a position, it is empha- sized, to explain gravely that this fifth reservation all but nullifies any possibility of the powers unani- mously accepting American mem- bership. But, the leading powers will explain, something might be done to overcome even this ‘‘insur- mountable obstacle.’’ The powers are ready to make great sacrifices, it will be pointed out, to facilitate American membership, even in the face of great opposition. Further- more, leading statesmen of the great powers will consider using their influence on the diplomats of other powers, In other words, much can be accomplished by mod- ern diplomacy when the statesmen find it worth while to coordinate their efforts. Is It Worth While? Asked. This brings the question to the point of whether or not it ig to be worth while to bring about the great effort at coordination in the interest of the desires of America respecting the admittedly unusual reservations. And that question, it is stated here significantly, can only be answered by the represent- atives of the United States. Senator Swanson, author of the reservations, is in Geneva now and will be ready and anxious to ex- plain reservation No. 5 and “its harmlessness from the European standpoint’’ whenever he has the opportunity. But the league states- men, it is hinted here, will not be interested in what the reservations mean in the opinion of Senator Swanson or any one else. They will want to know what acceptance of the reservation will ‘‘mean to the powers of Europe” if these powers unanimously withdraw their oppo- sition. Army Planes to Fly Over South America A flight around South America by five army airplanes is contem- plated by the War Department, and the State Department has requested various countries for permission for army aviators to fly over their terri- tory. Favorable replies have been received from some, it was stated yesterday. Until replies have been received from all the departments deem it best not to discuss the route or detailed plans for the flight. In this connection, it was an- nounced at the War Department yesterday that certain mechanical defects having develeped in the two amphibian planes at France field in the Panama Canal Zone, and there being an uncertainty as to when ad- ditional be available, the army flight to Ven- ezuela has been postponed indefi-| nitely. mg or spare parts will}. —] GOVERNOR OF TEXAS 5 LIKENED 10 RING TAR IN FIRPO FIGHT Mrs. Ferguson, Losing at First, Will Return for Vic- tory, Husband Says. CAMPAIGN OPENS FOR BATTLE WITH MOODY Woman Executive Says She Recalled Resignation Prom- ise to Defeat Ku Klux. Temple, Tex., Aug. 21 (By A. P.). A pugilistic metaphor was used by the Fergusons to describe the Texas Democratic gubernatorial campaign in opening the run-off race here to- night for Gov. Miriam Ferguson in her old home town. Speaking before a crowd of their own neighbors, Gov. Ferguson out- lined her fundamental planks in a brief address and James E. Fergu- son, her husband, filled in the de- tails of the platform in the tradi- tional Fergusonian campaign man- ner. Mr. Ferguson drew on the padded arena and the leather mitts for his descriptive simile comparing Mrs. Ferguson to champion Demp- sey and Dan Moody, her opponent to Luis FFirpo, the erstwhile con- tender from Argentina, “This campaign has its funny side as well as its serious,’’ he said. “It reminds me of the great pugilis- tic contest between the champion, Dempsey and the South American kid, Firpo. You will remember that in that fight, it looked for a short time as though the youthful contender had the fight. But in the second round the champion de- fender waded into his youthful an- tagonist and whipped and beat young Firpo to a standstill, a triumph of brain and courage over youth and ignorance, Returns for Victory. “So in this contest the youthful Dan Moody has charged the peo- ple’s champion, your governor, and for a moment only has appeared victorious. A few days ago he and his friends were sure that he had won the contest for the governor- ship- The champion paused for a moment only to catch her breath and she is again back in the ring and with the rising tide of an out- raged public opinion, is again win- ning a contest which will typify once more a victory of brains and courage over youth and ignorance.”’ Making her only speech of the short run-off campaign, which ends with the primary balloting August 28, Mrs. Ferguson, who preceded her husband, said the reason she: had changed her mind about with- drawing from the campaign, as she had announced she would do two days after the July 24 primary, was because she did not intend to ‘‘turn this State unopposed over to the Ku Klux Klan.” Mr. Ferguson said that the sues were: Fergusonism vs. Kluxism; Moodyism vs. tion; Moodyism vs. for schools and roads. The former governor charged a number of irregularities in the first primary, declaring that the ballot boxes had been “stuffed by the Ku Klux Klan.”’ Court investigation as soon as possible was promised by the for- mer governor. is- Ku legal elec- gasoline tax Senator Fernald Slightly Improved West Poland, Me., Aug. 21 (By A.

FESS AND FULLER URGE REPUBLICAN’S ELECTION Record of Quiet Accomplish- ment Pictured at Springfield Demonstration. Springfield, Mass., Aug. 21 (By A. P.).—That the national Demo- cratic party is making a deliberate attempt to “stage here, the first skirmish in the campaign of 1928” was the declaration of United Gates Senator William M. Butler, candidate for reelection and head- line speaker at the big Repub- lican outdoor demonstration here today. ‘‘The nation rolled up an impressive vote of confidence two years ago in the Republican party and its standard bearer, Calvin Coolidge. For two years the Dem- ocrats have been scheming to de- stroy that confidence. Torn with factional, sectional and other dif- ferences, still as disorganized as they were in, that memorable con- vention in Madison’Square Garden, the Democrats are banking every- thing on their attempt to _ tear down Calvin Coolidge and they are beginning in his own State,’” he said. ‘“‘We have plenty of evidence of their purpose,’ the senator con- tinued. land last spring a Democratic gov-; ernor who frankly admitted his party is banking everything on a repudiation of Coolidge in his own State. “Later Representative Oldfield. of Arkansas, said substantially the same thing. And only last Satur- day one of the State leaders of the party said that the election of the Democratic senator here this fall would mean the election of a Demo- cratic President in 1928.’’ Sees Change in Tactics. Senator Butler said that the shrewder leaders of the Democrats have within a day or two seen the unwisdom of the tactics employed and have decided to call a halt. United States Senator Simeon Fess, of Ohio, called for indorse- ment of the administration by the reelection of Senator Butler be- cause of the prosperous conditions which he depicted, saying that never have institutions been more stable, industries more sound, or the peo- ple more happy. Gov Fuller warned of what he termed false issues that he said would be raised by the op- position party in the campaign and said that in both State and nation, the Republican party had set up a record of quiet accomplishment, MRS!

OLDFIELD AIDS WILSON IN PENNSYLVANIA RAGE G. 0. P. Primary Expenditures Attacked in an Address “They brought from Mary-, at Allentown. “NEWBERRYISM” CHARGED Allentown, Pa., Aug. 21 (By A P.).—Both the Pennsylvania and Illinois primaries show the Repub- licans have no scruples about buy- ing an election, Representative Old- field, of Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic congressional campaign committee, declared here today in opening an aggressive campaign for the election of William B. Wilson, Democrat, to the Senate. ‘There is one subject upon which the Republican campaign managers will be as silent as President Cool- idge this year,’’ Mr. Oldfield said. “That is the Pennsylvania $3,000,- 000 Republican primary and the Illinois $1,000,000 Republican pri- mary. ‘Secretary Mellon says that the slush fund collected for the Penn- sylvania primary was the money collected for a church.’ sumably this includes the contribu- tions of Joseph W. Grundy, who said that he contributed becausethe Mellon-Pepper ticket’s candidate for governor was opposed to taxing corporations, and Grundy was look- ing out for the corporations. “That was the case in Illinois. The successful Republican ‘@andi- date for senator was the chairman of a State commission which has jurisdiction over public utility corporations, and, his campaign funds came from the three largest utility corporation magnates in the State. “The American people will not tolerate a continuance of Newberry- ism. They have shown that by the defeat of nearly every senator who voted to seat him. While the cor- rupt practice act has been held not to apply to senatorial primaries, fortunately the Senate is the judge of the qualifications of its mem- bers, and it was said that no more Newberrys shall sit in that body. You. voters in Pennsylvania, how- rever, have it in your power to fore- stall action by the Senate by the election of that scrupulousiy honest man, that ideal representative of labor, who has already rendered great service to the nation as Sec- retary of the great Labor Depart- ment, Wiliam B.

SEEKS TO AVOID SPLIT ON iM ‘Dr. Butler’s Withdrawal Seen as Peace Move With Dry Faction. WADSWORTH DRAWS FIRE New York, Aug. 21 (By A. P.). Efforts of Republicans to avoid serious dissension over the liquor issue in State elections this fall were seen by political writers here today in the withdrawal of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler as a Repub- lican gubernatorial possibility and Senator James W. Wadsworth’s dec- laration that a candidate satisfac- tory to wets and drys would be sought. “Our plans,’’ said Mr. Wads- worth after a conference with President Coolidge at Paul Smiths yesterday, “‘is to seek a candidate who will abide by the referendum.” ‘ He referred to fortheoming ex- pression of opinion by the elec- torate as to whether each State should determine the alcoholic con- tent of beverages. The referendum will be on the ballot at the election in November. The drys hold that the referen- dum is an attempt to evade the eighteenth amendment and blame Senator Wadsworth, as State party leader, for passage of the referen- dum act by a Republican legisla- ture. There has been talk of an in- dependent dry candidate for gover- nor, and prohibition forces have named State Senator Franklin W. CNistman as an independent Repub- lican candidate for senator. The dry forces are demanding re- enactment of the State enforcement provision, and a fight at the Re- publican convention, september 27, over this plank is in prospect. In this connection Senator Wadsworth said the Republican platform prob- ably would contain a plank for law enforcement. While Gov. Smith ts not definitely in the Hsts for reelection, there is strong Democratic sentiment for him, and he has declared that he will abide by the decision of the Democratic convention, which is also September 27. Cristman’s supporters have been contemplating asking the Repub- lican national committee and Presi- dent Coolidge not to aid Wads- worth. Marines Win Rifle Match. The Hayden All-American team rifle match was won by the marine corps first team at Wakefield, Mass., it was announced yesterday at corps headquarters here, the score being 2,829. The navy first team was sec- ond, with 2,782, and the marine corps second team third, with 2,764. a ee ee Ee - E HARRIS @ CHARGE ACCOUNTS INVITED SATISFACTORY TERMS ARRANGED Continuing Our August Sale ‘DIAMONDS Solitaire and Cluster Rings, Brooches, Bar Pins, Pendants At Most Attractive REDUCTIONS An event of very first im- portance to you who will be glad to find opportu- nity to ex- ceed your ex- pectation of buying ad- vantageously.

Support of the midcity site is ex- pected from the Benning Citizens and other civic associations of the eastern sections of the city. Support of the mid-city site as the “ideal site’’ to which to. move the market was expressed also in the Columbia Heights Observer, of- ficial organ of the Columbia Heights Business Men’s association, published yesterday. gainst this support of the mid- city site, the Southwest Business Men’s and Citizens’ associations continued: their efforts to line up sentiment in favor of the proposed Southwest site along the water front in the vicinity of the munici- pal fish market, advancing many arguments to beat down those ad- vanced in support of the midcity site. So far as public sentiment ex- pressed in the market site poll of The Post to ascertain public senti- ment on the question is concerned, the Eckington site, advanced by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad be- fore the coordinating committee of the National Capital park and plan- ning commission, is out of the run- ning. Supporters of each of the sites ‘plan to attend in force the public hearing of the special market site committee of the Washington Chamber of Commerce in the cham- ber offices in the Homer building, Thirteenth and F streets northwest, at 2 o’clock tomorrow afternoon. A. J. Driscoll, president of the Midcity Citizens association, is ex- pected to make the principal argu- ment in favor of the midcity site, with arguments .in favor of the Southwest site presented by George M.

THREE PROPOSED SITES FOR NEW MARKET PLAN TOUS he AB 5 rar, FREIGHT to a market at such a point would increase the consumer’s bill by not less than 25 per cent. Location of the market in Eckington likewise is out of the question because of the miles of extra switching of freight cars that would entail.’’ ‘Readjustment of existing rail- location of the market in Ecking- ton,’’ Wrisley Brown, president of the Potomac Freight Terminals Co., declared. “The establishment of the wholesale market district in northeast Washington would soon create a highly unsatisfactory traf- fic condition, and the Interstate Commerce Commission would have to adjust the relief to the occasion. “This would bring into being the projected belt. line‘around the city on the north, whith public opinion has condemned as a menace to the civic and economic welfare of Wash- ington.”’ Location of the produce market “somewhere north of Florida ave- nue rather than in the vicinity of the wharves” was advocated by Josiah W. Jones, president of the Montgomery county farm bureau. “Farmers and truckers of Mont- gomery county ship much produce to the Washington market and its location means much to them,’’ Mr. Jones said. ‘“‘There is a _ keen interest in the question here in Montgomery county and we are anxious that government officials and the people of the District be ap- prised of our interest and give consideration to our side of the question.”’ Mid-City Site Advocated. Voting in favor of moving Center market to Fifth and K _ streets northwest, if it is necessary to move it from its present. location, Wash- ington Topham, 43 U street north- west, urged the mid-city site as ‘most accessible and convenient and safe for the people.’’ The poll of public sentiment be- ing conducted by The Post was a public service, Mr. Topham said. In a letter to the editor of The Post, Mr. Topham said: “Economy is the slogan of today, and a good one in these times. ‘‘Why tear down'Center market’s splendid structure, where continu- ous successful business has been conducted for 125 years? “It is centrally located, well- ments at the same time. Hereto- fore one side at a time has ap- peared before the park commis- sion coordinating committee and presented their arguments. That the decision on a new site for the Center market district is a matter of vital interest not only to the marketmen directly involved but to the entire city is emphasized in statements from scores on ballots and letters sent The Post as a re- sult of its poll. Eckington Plan Assailed. The Baltimore & Ohio railroad proposal to move the market near its Eckington freight yards was at- tacked by proponents of both the inidcityand Southwest sites as the opening wedge in the construction of a constricting railroad belt line around Washington, forever im- peding the proper development of its suburbs which spread beyond the District line, Maryland and Virginia members of the House and Senate will be enlisted in the fight over the new location of the market district if efforts of supporters of both the midcity and Southwest sections of the city are successful. The mem- bers of Congress can not keep out of the question because whatever new site is selected’ will affect their constituents who depend for their livelihood on the sale of their farm products to Washington consumers. The meeting of the Benning Citi- zens association, called by A. D. Loffler, president, for Thursday night, is only the beginning of an emphatic disapproval of the Eck- ington site by other Northeast and Southeast citizens associations, Warner Stutler, member of the Ben- ning association, declared. Other associations, including the Anacos- tia association, plan to hold special meetings to consider the question. He predicted almost unanimous op- position to the suggested Northeast site. Patterson Tract Urged. “The people of the northeast section of Washington have for years looked forward to the pur. chase by the city of the Patterson tract’ and its development as a beautiful park and _ recreational center.” Mr. Stutler declared. “We are not. willing now to see this one remaining park site turned into a market site. “This factor must be considered by the responsible government of-} ficials, the District commissioners and by Congress when final de- cision is made. The residents of northeast have been neglected for years in every park. program planned or carric®’ out and we do not intend to let this fine park site be turnéd over to commercial use without expressing our opposition to such a move.’ *Favoring the mid-city site, Mr. '§tutler declared that selection of the southwest site would mean add- ed downtown traffic congestion and trouble and aes for the pur- ehasing public. “Selection of the K street, or midcity site, will mean the buying ublic will have to bear an’ added urden in increased cost of their foods,” Mr. Scalco declared, argu- ing in favor of the water-front te. . “THe cost of drayage from the _ gailroad and water front terminals equipped, and here our people have been well served. It is Washing- ton’s oldest and largest business enterprise. ‘‘Instead of economy it would be an extravagant waste to destroy this fine market; besides who has the vision to believe that by moving this market to either the northern or southern end of the city such a successful business could again be built up, or the masses so well served? “Tf it is finally determined to remove Center market, let it, for the sake of the people it serves, be centrally located. Northern Liber- ty, now Convention Hall market, the second largest market in Wash- ington, began business in 1846, and has been serving people continuous- ly for 80 years. Center of City Urged. “The area between Fourth and Seventh streets, and Massachusetts and New York avenues is the cen- ter of the city. For these reasons and the matter of accessibility, convenience and the safety of our people let the market be placed in this locality.’’ “The Camp Meigs site provides ample space; it is centrally located, and is not in the congested area,”’ W. H. Harrison Co., 907 B street southwest, commission merchants, declared in balloting in favor of the Eckington site. Disapproval of the present loca- tion of the market or any other cen- tral site was expressed in a letter from Mrs. Ellen Auck, 1302 Ran- dolph street northwest. She voted to put the market in the Washing- ton channel. “Long has it been a grievance and shame to take visitors from Pennsylvania avenue on ‘Tenth street to the museum,”’ Mrs. Auck complained. ‘‘The filth that one en- counters is obnoxious. In warm weather the street is never washed except by rain, the windows in the old market places are broken and smeared, the live stock and fowl are calling for food and shelter from the burning sun. The cruelty is seen on every hand. It is’ time it is moved.” Northeast Se Asked. market should be moved to K street northeast, between First and North Capitol streets,’’ Miss May Carlin, 94 K street northeast, said. ‘The site is near the railroad, good for refrigerator and ‘delivery purposes, and would be much nearer for resgi- dents of outlying districts because as it was they had to go to the other end of the city. Also, I should judge by what I’ve seen that avery large percentage of custom- ers come from Northeast or Southeast. The zone I suggest is getting to be a strictly commercial or business center.’’ The markets should be as near as possible to their present site, if it is necessary to move them, Mrs. H. DuPue, owner of the Seven- teenth cafeteria, 724 Seventeenth street northwest, declared. A daily visitor to the market where she purchases several dollars worth of fresh vegetables, Mrs. DuPue based her vote on personal observation and experience. | “Traffic is less where one may go the backway of Ponnsylyania ayg- road rates would have to follow the] ‘The Farmers’ market and Center ! — —_— Florida avenue northeast.

Upper right: the Eckington site, adjacent to the Baltimore & Ohio freight yards, on the Patterson tract, north of Lower: the proposed Southwest or water-front site, from Twelfth to Fourteenth street, and north from the water front. Upper left: The mid-city nue,”’ she said. ‘“‘Quicker deliveries are possible. Should the market be located where one is obliged to drive through the city it just would not be patronized. Hotels Near Location. “The hotels are nearer this sec- tion than Northeast and more eat- ing places are in this Northwest sec- tion. Few, in comparison, who live in their own homes patronize the market—they telephone. I am very glad to have this chance to send in a vote. Let me add that my bills to the market alone are more than $3,000 a month for vegetables.” ‘‘My preference for the Farmers’ market and Center market is the block bounded by Fourth and Fifth and K and L streets northwest,” Charles R. Allen, attorney with of- fices in the McLachlen building said. ‘‘My reason for this choice is that this property is centrally located and convenient as to point of ap- proach in that practically every car line in the city approaches within no more than four blocks of same. Further, there has been dire need for an armory, which armory could be made part of the building, and furthermore the property on this block is in very poor condition and could be purchased at a reasonable figure and the present occupants of the now standing buildings would be prospective tenants for the mar- ket.’’ Added Reasons for Site. “There are added reasons why this site should be selected. First, K street is rather a wide street; second, Fourth street and L street are traveled very little; third, the block is quite a vast area and would’ not only accommodate a closed market but would be suffi- cient to accommodate an open mar- ket, and, finally, it is centrally located from the farmers’ view- point in that the farmers from Virginia and Maryland passing through the different arterial high- ways would not be forced into con- gested traffic areas. Virginia far- mers could come up Sixth street and avoid the avenue between Seventh and Thirteenth; Maryland farmers could come through Geor- gia avenue, down Sixth street and through Rhode Island . avenue, down Fifth street. ‘“‘T have no interest in any prop- erty on this block or within four miles thereof.” When relocation of the Center market. district was under discus- sion before Congress several years ago, a site in the vicinity of Con- vention hall market was agreed on as the best, L. Burdine, 4125 Har- rison street northwest, declared ina letter to the Market Site Editor of The Post. Up in Congress Before. “Tt note the public interest and your invitation for individual ex- pression for a new and permanent market site, and call attention_that some time between 1905 and 1908 the question of a site was:taken up in Congress at a time when appro- priations and laying out of the Mall were ardently before Cong§ess. “The most favorable site from that discussion was the one bounded by Séventh street, Massa- chusetts and New York avenues, through K ayd L streets to Fourth, including the old Convention Hall market. “A company of local and out-of- town merchants was formed and op- tions taken on the properties in this section to arrive at an estimate and preliminaries for the purpose of a market, immediately on Con- gress passing a law for removal of the old market and construction of oa government buildings on the site. “The consensus of opinion was in favor of this location because it was centrally located, street railway fa- calities, and within reasonable and advantegeous reach of the public, especially with the city’s growth in sections north of it and being close to railroad freight an express yards, with possibilities of tunnel or elevated railroad from B. & O., as well as Pennsylvania working in from sime routes as tracks to Union station, allowing for proposed stor- age plants, &c. On account of de- lays, indecision and later idea of the market coming under control of the government the idea of a cor- poration development was abandon- ed at that time. Community Needs Stressed. “TI am more in favor of. this site for one centrally located market, if such is the outcome, but as the city has and is now progressing, con- sideration of market buildings should be given in accordance with separate community or locality, as compared with population, growth and erection of storage plants in proximity to the freight stations as they now stand.’”’ Joseph C. Siegel, 905 Fourth street northwest, proposed location of Center market in the square bounded by Massachusetts avenue, K street, Fifth and Sixth streets northwest, and the Farmers’ mar- ket in the square bounded by Fourth and Fifth, K and L streets northwest. Under this plan the Center market would be near the street car lines and the Farmers’ market would be better located for traffic, he said. C. H. Greathouse, of Rosslyn, Va., urged transfer of the markets to Rosslyn. ‘“‘Ground is cheap, it would be near the center of popu- lation; near the Virginia and Mont- gomery county, Md., products, there is plenty of room, and the town is reached by water, three railroads and several freight motor truck lines,’’ Mr. Greathouse urged. The position of the market site committee of the City club, as set forth by H. J.

FIXED PRICE PLEA NOT GENERAL, HE REPORTS Finds ins Also in Tariff and Credits; Holds Crop Conditions Good. Paul Smiths, N. Y., Aug. 21 (By A. P.).—The average farmer in the West would like to see some re- adjustment in the tariff and fur. ther reductions in taxes, Secretary Jardine, of the Department of Ag- riculture, reported today during a visit with President Coolidge at the summer White House. In general, however, Mr. Jardine added, the average farmer does not urge the crop-price. stabilization Plan of the McNary-Haugen Dill, “although a lot of them do,” nor does he believe any great exten- Sion of farm credit machinery is essential, but he is strongly for the development of the cooperative market system. Thé Secretary’s views were made known as he completed an inspec- tion of farm conditions of the en- tire country and reported that the country was headed for fully as a good a year on crops as last year, which was the best since the world war. The administration, Mr. Jardine made clear, has “‘no new farm pro- gram” to present, but is watching and studying all problems and in- The cooperative marketing movement Was given his renewed pledge of assistance, while he said the credit situation, particularly, as involved in the indebtedness on farm lands in the West, was receiving close study by the government. Indebtedness Lessened. Farm indebtedness is less than it was, he asserted, ‘‘bnt it is still back breaking.’’ The dollar. how- ever, he added, means to the farmer about 87 cents as compared with 100 cents before the war, and until that gap is closed the agriculturali sections are bound to be restive. The fall congressional elections, Mr. Jardine indicated, in his opin- ion, ‘would see no extensive over. turns from the party standpoints, although he said much would de- pend on the state of prosperity at the time. Undoubtedly, he con- tinued, the farmers of. the West think their situation is due in part to the tariff. As for taxes, Mr. Jardine said it appeared that local . rather than Federal taxes at pres- ent bore most heavily’ upon the farmers, although they would like to see reductions all along the line. Emphasizing the need for ade- quate credits to assist cooperative’ marketing organizations, including those which deal in perishable fruits and vegetables, Mr. Jardine said that whether the Fess Dill would be reoffered in the. next session of Congress would depend much upon the demands of the -. cooperatives themselves. Supports Fess Principle. The Fess measure, which would have provided a $100,000,000 re. volving fund for loan purposes to cooperatives, was defeated at the recent session in the face of support by President Coolidge and the ep- tire administration. His support for the measure, Mr. Jardine as- serted, was ‘‘no eleventh hour mat- ter’? and he reiterated his belief in the principle of the bill. While indicating that he was not completely familiar with the tenta- tive steps that have been taken to coordinate private credit agencies to relieve’a frozen paper situation in Western farm banks, the Secre- tary said he was gathering com- plete data on that situation, and hoped some measures could be taken to release capital tied up on farm lands and, by making it liq- uid, release it for active farm pur- poses. Largely due to the defla- tion that has been proceeding in Western farm country since 1920, he said, much bank capital in the West is tied up in, frozen \credits on farms that have been foreclosed. Bank Funds Frozen. In Minnesota alone, he added, he was informed one-half the bank capital of that State was frozen in this way. A good many farms have also been foreclosed, he said, in ' Tiiinois and Iowa. ¥ ¢ ¥ omy BS The situation in the corn belt was spoken of optimistically by Sec- retary Jardine, who. said there promised to be 400,000,000 bushels less corn this year than last year, and in the country as a whole 200,000,000 bushels less of feed grains. “That means steadier and better prices for corn and feed, which > were clean down when the farmers started selling last year,’’ he added. It would not be surprising, Mr. Jardine said, if the farmers started '. selling their new corn this year at the present figure for old corn, or at a point from 10 to 20 cents ' higher than at the start last year. : & «4 om . ‘ey 47 “ - r + | pa ; oh .

ROCKVILLE 1S EAD FON TS ANNUAL FAR TO OPEN ON TUESON First Day to Be Given Largely to Children as Guests of Management. pe Teaser teers te eee heae? ere? rcoegpv er 8" RACES ARE SCHEDULED AS PRINCIPAL FEATURE Exhibits Pouring In, and Every Department Is Expected to Be Filled. If the weather conditions are fa- vorable, especially Thursday, the big day, the seventy-third annual fair of the Montgomery County Ag- ricultural society, to be held in Rockville, Md., Tuesday, Wednes- day, Thursday and Friday, will, those in charge feel confident, prove a big success from every standpoint. After several weeks of hard work on the part of President Clarence L. Gilpin, Secretary Otho Trundle and the superintendents of the various departments, everything, except a few finishing touches here and there, is in readiness for opening of the gates Tuesday morning. There is said to be every indica- tion that all departments will be filled with exhibits. For the last " woek entries have been received at * a rapid rate, and for the last day or ‘ two in a steady stream. Various department heads said yesterday that the exhibits already assured * mean varied and interesting dis- plays, but that hundreds of addi- * tional entries are sure to be made vefore the fair gets under way. Children’s Day Tuesday. As has been the case for several years, the opening day will be ob- served at “Children’s day,’’ and sev- eral thousand boys and girls of school age from the District of Co- lumbia, Montgomery, Howard and Prince Georges counties are. ex- pected to attend as guests of the so- ciety. A pony show, in which some- thing like a hundred beautiful ani- mals will be seen, and six pony races are outstanding features of the program provided for the enter- tainment of the little visitors. The program for the first day will also include much to please the grown- ups. The big feature of Wednesday will be the horse show. Mrs. Andrew J. Cummings, chairman of the committee in charge, and Miss Anna Gilpin, secretary, are enthu- sisastic over prospects for an unu- sually fine exhibition this year. Three harness races—2:25 pace, 2:22 trot and 2:12 pace—a mule race at 6 furlongs and a hunters’ flat race at 6 furlongs, the gentle- men riders to appear in colors, are also scheduled for the second day, as is a parade around the race track of all horses, teams and prize cattle on exhibition. re@geprs reer rr reer eee” *_** Thursday the Big Day. Thursday has always been the big day of the fair and this time is expected to prove no exception. Four harness races, a mule race, a parade of automobiles, trucks and » Smooth-wheel tractors are some of * the attractions provided for that » day. The harness races include the * 2.30 trot, open to horses owned in * the District of Columbia and Mont- » zomery, Prince Georges, Frederick * and Carrol] counties; 2.20 pace, « 2.13 trot and 2.15 pace, each fora * purse of $300. »« The annual dog show, of which .

Prisoners in the Atlanta Federal penitentiary were fed during the past fiscal year at the average indi- vidual daily cost of 24.90 cents, the annual report of Warden John W. Snook, issued today, announced. Inmates of the institution, reported as 3,124, were clothed at an aver- age daily cost to the government of 6.47 cents, the document made known. Room rent was free, ac- cording to the report. Seventy-nine of the prisoners are college men and women; 441 have attended high schools; 1,474 went to common schools; 200 are ilfiter- ates. MODEL AIRPORT HERE CALLED GREAT NEED MacCracken Believes Field Would Attract Traffic to Washington. A model airport in Washington is an immediate need, William P. MacCracken, Assistant Secretary for Aeronautics in the Department of Commerce, asserted yesterday. It should be large, well laid out and conveniently located, he said. A properly equipped air field, Mr. MacCracken pointed out, would at- tract considerable air. traffic to Washington. Commercial value is not the only consideration, however, he said. The airport would be as much a recreational center as the parks and golf links. “It should be planned to care for future rapid increases in aeronau- tics,” Mr. MacCracken explained. “At first municipal hangars prob- ably would be available for housing private planes and air transports, and these could be serviced at the airport. Later, when the traffic be- comes too heavy, the airport prob- ably would become simply a place for taking on and discharging pass- engers, mail and baggage, similar to the central railroad terminal. When civil traffic has developed to that degree the planes after unload- ing could be flown to a larger field somewhere on the outskirts of the city, where they will be serviced and held until needed.’’ COMMISSIONER BELL WILL REVIEW MILITIA Rain Halts Track Meet of the District Guard in Camp at Fort Humphreys. Engineer Commissioner J. Frank- lin Bell will review the District militia in encampment at Fort Humphreys, Va., at a parade drill Thursday afternoon, according to Col. J.. W. Oehmann, commandant of the camp. Enlisted men had to abandon a track and field meet scheduled yes- terday because of the rain. Inspec- tion was held in the morning and the men were released on their week-end furlough later in the day. Tomorrow night officers will enter- tain the noncommissioned officers at dinner in the George Mason ho- tel, Alexandria. A lecture will be delivered be- fore all officers of the post and enlisted men of the 121st regi- ment Thursday night by Lieut. Col. T. J. Dickson, president of the First Division Socjety of Washington. He will talk on, ‘‘America and Ver- dun.”’ Officers of the regiment will hold a dance in Harris hall the fol- lowing night. Saturday night the annual dinner of the officers of the regiment will be held at the George Mason hotel.

Dubinsky was left in possession of a sparkling handful of gems, which proved to be cut glass when he showed them to-a connoiseur. The scene shifted to the neigh- bor city’ of Lynn, and the price fell still lower. Both facts attributed by police to certain publicity given the Bricker incident by Boston newspapers. This time Louis Rosenthal, a Lynn tailor, was left holding the bag. He reported to police that $63, the contents of his cash reg- ister, had gone to two dark-com- plexioned men and a woman of 40. The smuggler of the “czarina’s jewels” also varied his story slight- ly on the Lynn front. He wanted a Suit of élothes, but had only Rus- sian monmsy, he said. A second stranger arrived, and then there was talk of two diamonds which the first stranger said he had smuggled in from Cuba. A woman who chanced in offered to take the diamonds out to be appraised. She reported them genuine “Russian crown jewels,’’ and Rosenthal emp- in his cash register to obtain em. ‘ EFPobee late, sae sought ane er appraiser. @ verdict. “80 cent” ns ae Pa ee ee NS ee - _e ed B,- » aS pe : > - mF - , » i 7 gt as | re oh | 2 in Billy Sunday, More Than 1,000 Attend the Wadesville: Annual Horse Show ; my ~ = van YS : ys blin, Round Hill Pony 12% hands and under, driven|-—_First, Stolen Idol, H.

PISTOL HELD PLANTED; ANHEST TO BE SOUGHT Two Men Who Took Part in ' First Investigation Into Killing Are Guestioned. ee ee ee a ee er Somerville, N. J., Aug. 28 (By ‘A. P.).—Two men who had charge of the initial investigation of the murder of the Rev. Edward W. Hall and his choir singer, Mrs. Eleanor Mills, four years ago, were ques- by investigators of State Senator Alexander Simpson, in the revived investigation. Ford A. David, chief of Middlesex county detéctives, and George D. Totten, former Somerset county de- tective, and. now in the employ of a New York newspaper, were clos- eted with detectives and State troopers for several hours at State police headquarters, They were asked to recount the details of their actions after the ‘bodies were found. Missing Brooch Traced. David, according to investigators, told them the name of the man to whom he gave a gold brooch pin, found near the scene of the crime, ‘and which has been sought by Simpson. Totten, the investigators ‘said, repeated testimony which he gave at the hearing of Henry Car- ‘pender, cousin of Mrs. Frances ‘Stevens Hall, the slain rector’s wid- ow, and her brother, Willie Stev- ‘ens, who were held without bail ‘for the murders Thursday. Alf Butler, who, it was reported signed an affidavit to the effect that he saw Carpender, carrying several ‘packages, leave the Hall home the ‘morning the bodies were found, was ‘unable to state whether the man he Saw was Henry Carpender or his cousin, Sidney Carpender, detec- tives said. The investigators announced that ‘no more witnesses would be inter- Togated before Monday. On that day application will be made before ‘Chief Justice Gummere, at Newark, ‘for the admission to bail of Car- *:pender and Stevens. This move ; will be opposed by- Senator Simp- enews @@ 8880246 @ * 'pefore Son. Two Diaries Reported. Simpson announced today that ‘he had received a diary, not men- ‘tioned in connection with the case which he believed would ‘yield new leads and clews in the « mystery. He declined to say from whom he obtained it. Another diary said to have been found in Washington has not yet reached the investigators. A woman who said she was not ,a member of the Hall family, but ‘that she spoke for Mrs. Hall, to- ? ' ’ ‘ ‘ ' ' t . »night said that Mrs. Hall had never . : e ° e 7 wees e et ; ‘heard of the gold brooch until to- ‘day and that she did not own one ‘of the description given by Davis ‘and Edward Tierse, proprietor of reer Tea Pot Inn, near here. Tierse ,told investigators his wife found tithe brooch near the scene of the ‘murder. Pistol Called a **Plant."’ A Spanish pistol tendered to in- ‘vestigators by a_ Philadelphia ‘chauffeur the weapon which as . probably was used in the murder ° « tention, ‘was merely a “plant” to divert at- in the opinion of special ‘Prosecutor.

Officers said they found a loaded revolver in Richardson’s room at the residence of J. N. at ee Lummus, sY., in a fashionable residential section here. Mem- bers of the Lummus household said Richardson appeared con- siderably annoyed when _ he learned that Mr. Lummus had been brought home from a hos- pital after an operation.

St..Paul, Aug. 20 (By A. P.).— American and Canadian health au- thorities will conduct a concerted drive against communicable dis- eases during the six months period beginning with September, reports Dr. A. J. Chesley, secretary-treas- urer of the Conference of State and Provincial Health Authorities of North America. Diphtheria will be dealt with during September and October, smallpox during November and De- cember and typhoid fever during January and February. “A sur- vey will be made of each locality,”’ said Dr. Chesley, ‘‘and an extensive educational campaign will be pro- moted to make certain that every person upderstands that these dis- eases are communicable and that by immunization and vaccination they are preventable.’’ State and provincial health offi- cers, all of whom are members of the conference, automatically be- come members of the campaign committee to foster the movement. Cooperation of the American Medi- cal association, the Canadian Medi- cal association, the federal health department of the Dominion of Canada, and the United States pub- lic health service has been prom- iged. WATERWAY DESIGN IS URGED BY HOOVER Time to Sink Local Ambitions, Secretary Advises in an Address at Seattle. Seattle, Wash., Aug. 21 (By A. — | Northwest tonight with a plea for a new and broad national program for full utilization of the nation’s water resources. Speaking before the Columbia River Basin league, he declared the country has ‘‘wasted vast sums of public money under political pres- sure,’ and that the time had come to submerge local considerations and center on major engineering jobs that would fulfill‘a ‘‘great na- tional design.”’ He favored the immediate build- ing of ‘‘a great dam at Boulder can- yon and subsidiary works’”’ on the Colorado river, and said he looked for much progress in another six months in efforts to solve the en- gineering and international ques- tions involved in the Great Lakes- to-the-sea project. He also enumerated as among the worth-while projects the ‘‘mod- ernization’’ of the Mississippi river navigation system; restoration to the Great Lakes of their full possi- bilities as a medium of transporta- tion, and development of the -Co- lumbia, Tennessee, Cumberland, Ar- kansas and Rio Grande rivers. England May Drop Three-Penny Pieces London, Aug. 21 (By A. P.).— The silver ‘‘three-penny’”’ pieces, which came into existence about the time of Queen Elizabeth, may be withdrawn from circulation in favor of a larger coin of nickel of the value of one-hundredth part of the pound sterling. Three-penny silver pieces very small and often get lost, but there is a sentimental value about them and in many churches they form the bulk of the coin in collection plates.

DISARMAMENT’S VALUE FOR PEACE IS SCOUTED U.S. Takes Gambler’s Chance on Collecting Debts, Says M. J. Bonn. Williamstown, Mass., Aug. 21 (By A. P.).—vUtilization of Muscle Shoals for the manufacture of chemical products indispensable to national defense, such as caustic, chlorine and ferroalloys, which can be manufactured only by means’ of cheap power, was advocated today before the Institute of Politics. Harry A. Curtis, professor of chemical engineering at Yale and an authority on nitrates, said it was not feasible to use the power at Muscle Shoals for the manufacture of fertilizer or for public utility power, claiming there is no known method of manufacturing fertilizers cheaply enough to make their pro- duction profitable. While power might be generated at Muscle Shoals at a low initial cost, the transmis- sion and distribution charges would be prohibitive, he asserted. Disarmament Belittled. Slight benefit from disarmament as a preventative of war was seen by Dr. J. S. Reeves, professor of po- litical science, who touched on the address yesterday of Sir James Er- vine, noted British scientist, -who declared the nation possessing the most efficient chemical industry pos- sesses also the most efficient instru- ments of war. “If a war of the future could be waged to its completion in a com- paratively few hours by the use of chemical warfare and if the mate- rials for chemical warfare can be obtained in practically unlimited quantities by comparatively simple changes from proper peace proc- esses in chemistry, why talk about disarmament?’’ asked Dr. Reeves. He said that the nations repre- sented at the recent preparatory commission conference attended in an attitude of fear. Security, he as- serted, is still looked upon from a national point of view, and the Lo- carno pact, the League of Nations and the world court do not yet appear to European countries as a form of security that can be substi- tuted for the older form. This country, he said, in its isolated po- sition, can in no way take the dra- matic lead it assumed at the naval disarmment conference Debts Held Insecure. Moritz J. Bonn, leading German economist, said that the United States is taking a gambling chance on the future in expecting to col- lect the German and allied debts in a 62-year period. “We don’t know what will hap- pen in ten years,’’ he said. ‘‘Any- thing we expect to happen in the next 62 years won’t happen, or will happen differently.”’ Touching on France’s debt to the United States, he declared that the United States can not make $2 in France where there is only $1, and one can not tell what will happen in 62 years. ‘‘We are all drawing merely on the future, and no one knows the future,” he said. 8-DAY SNAKE DANCE BEGUN BY THE HOPIS Rattlers, Carefully Washed, Offered as Sacrifice to Water Gods. Flagstaff, Ariz., Aug. 21 (By A. P.).—The sun dipping behind the desert horizon today heralded the beginning of the annual snake dance of the Hopi Indians. To the accompaniment of rattling shells, which sound like the patter of rain, prayer-laden rattlesnakes were offered as sacrifice to the gods of the underworld who control the vast subterranean reservoirs, while prayers were raised to the gods above who guard the great reser- voirs of the heavens. For eight days the Hopis, trail- ing in bands to the third mesa, Oraibi in the village of Hotevilla, 107 miles north of here, have been preparing for the ceremony and waiting anxiously for sunset today to launch into the weird rites. During the day the Indians care- fully washed and cleaned the rat- tlers that they might be fit offer- ings for the water gods. ALTe | cece THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, AUGUST 22, 1926... --- REMUS, IN JAIL, SAYS DEPORTATION MOVE BY U.S. 16 “IDIOTIC” Cincinnati ‘Bootleg’ King Declares His Father Was Naturalized Years Ago. LABOR DEPARTMENT HAS WARRANT ISSUED Former Brewer Charged With Having Entered Country by False Statements. Troy, Ohio, Aug. 21 (By A. P.). George Remus, Cincinnati ‘‘boot- leg’ king, was informed in his cell in the Miami county jail today of the warrant issued by the Depart- ment of Labor in Washington for his deportation as an undesirable alien. Remus declared the deporta- tion move was ‘‘idiotic.’’ “The statements made by govern- ment officials are untrue. My fath- er was naturalized in Cook county, Illinois, years ago. Probably the records have been lost,’”’ he said. He admitted, however, that he was born in Germany, as the Wash- ington authorities allege, and was brought to this country when he was 4 years old. Remus plans to fight the case. He has declared previously that he en- joyed citizenship rights through his father’s claimed naturalization. He cited his practice of law in Chi- cago and his having voted as evi- dence of citizenship. Investigated for Several Years. Federal officers have been in- vestigating the matter of the citi- zenship of Remus for several years. He has always maintained that he is a bona fide citizen of the United States. Remus has been known as the “bootleg king’’ of Cincinnati and was the first of the higher ups in the bootleg trade to be indicted and convicted. His case dragged through the courts for several years and at- tracted nation-wide attention. He served a sentence in the Atlanta penitentiary on a conspiracy charge and is now serving a year’s sentence in the Miami county jail on a charge of maintaining a nuisance. The prisoner also attracted at- tention by his connection with the grant and bribery charges in the Atlanta penitentiary which resulted in the warden and several other officers of the institution being dismissed. Fraud Charged in Warrant. (By Associated Press.) As a step toward deportation pro- ceedings the Department of Labor has issued a warrant for the ar- 'rest of George Remus, former brew- er of Cincinnati, who served a term in Atlanta penitentiary for boot- legging. Deportation of Remus is sought on the ground that he entered this country by means of false and mis- leading statements; that he is a person likely to become a public charge, and that he has been con- victed of a felony or other crime in- volving moral turpitude since his entry into the United States. Remus was convicted at Cincin- nati for violating the prohibition act and was sentenced to a term in the Atlanta prison. While serving there he was brought to Washington to become a star witness in the Senate investigation of the admin- istration of the Department of Jus- tice under Harry M. Daugherty. Subsequently he made an affidavit repudiating his testimo? i. Two Suspects Cleared In Vanderbilt Theft New York, Aug. 21 (By A. P.). The arrest of two Harlem pawn- brokers. failed to give police a clew today to the theft of $100,000 in jewels from’ the Newport, R. L., home of Gen. Cornelius Vanderbilt. Police at headquarters today said that $18,000 worth of jewels seized at the pawnshop of Joseph Roth on Lexington avenue, had not been identified as part of the Vanderbilt loot. The arrest of Roth and his son, Herbert, police said, had no con- nection with the Vanderbilt rob- bery. A charge of criminally re- ceiving stolen property had been preferred against them. A search of pawnshops for the Vanderbilt jewels was being continued. E. L. Maury Dies at Salem. Special to The Washington Post. Salem, Va., Aug. 21.— Edward L. Maury died yesterday at his home here.

Thomp- son, who is investigating conditions in the Philippines for report to President Coolidge, visited the Moros here today and heard speech- es by Filipinos denouncing the Bacon bill introduced in Congress which would provide a separate government for islands of the Phil- ippines populated chiefly by Moros. These are the islands of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan. Escorted by a fleet of decorated boats, Thompson proceeded up the Aguisan river through a tropical country to Butuan, 10 miles from the coast. There, for the first time he met Moros in their native province. The President’s envoy visited provincial buildings in company wiht the local Filipino leader and listened to the speeches antogonis- tic to the Bacon bill. One speaker declared he ‘‘would rather see Min- danao disappear from the earth A few Moros, attired in fezes and native attended the meeting. costumes, PRINTING PRESGMEN OPEN INTERNATIONAL SESCON TOMORROU War Memorial Chapel Will Be Dedicated at Their Tennessee Home.

Pressmen’s Home, Tenn., Aug. 21.—The convening Monday of the thirty-first biennial convention of. the International Printing Press- men and Assistants Union of North America at Pressmen’s Home, the city owned by and named for the union, is of especial and interna- tional importance, since there will be associated with this biennial session formal dedicational cere- monies of the World War Memo- rial chapel.

From the number en- listed, 111 of them paid the su- preme sacrifice. Pressmen’s Home is located in the center of Hawkins county on a spot once made famous as a health resort known as Hales Springs of more than a century,ago. In ad- dition to the beauty of the location there is located upon the estate of approximately 2,000 acres various species of mineral waters. Many Will Speak.

Lynch, president of the International Typographical union, aswell as representative publishers, manu- facturers of paper, inks, machinery and other materials required in the production of newspapers, maga- zines and commercial printing will be present and address the con- vention.

NS, DATING BACK ~ ENTRIES, PLACED 7 EXHIBITION HERE Collectors, Meeting in Con- vention, Arrange Display for Public View. ANCIENT GREEK MONEY MADE 700 YEARS B. C. ‘lincoln in Numismatics” Is Title Applied to One Assortment. —- Coins, some of which date back to the B. C. days, will be displayed by proud owners this week on the ninth floor of the Washington hotel for the annual convention of the American Numismatic association which opened yesterday. The con- vention will adjourn Thursday. Exhibition cases were set up in the rose room of the hotel and coin collectors lost little time in placing their valuable and ancient collec- tions on display. Some of the 100 members, who are gathered for the sessions, and who are not ex- hibiting, are carrying age-old rari- ties with them and displaying them whenever they find an interested listener. Mrs. Moritz Wormser, of New York city, the first woman member of the association allowed to ex- hibit a collection, laid forth a rare collection of medals of musicians, composers and singers. The celeb- rities included in her exhibit are Liszt, Beethovan, Wagner, Jenny Lind, Mozart, Schubert, Verdi, Johann Strauss and others. Lincoln in Numismatics. John E. Morse, of Hadley, Mass., exhibited a collection, which he calls ‘“‘Lincoln Numismatics. ot an has gathered bills and coins, stamp- ed with the image of Lincoln, and his collection is termed one of the most valuable and complete in the world. Lincoln and Queen Victoria are pictured on an English £50 first mortgage bond, which he dis- plays. Elmer Lawless, of Chicago, is ex- hibiting Lincoln, Washington and papal medals. George S. Goddard, of New York, has a complete col- lection of Confederate currergy. Ju- lius Gutag, of New York city, placed on display numerous gold pieces, including a 26 2-3 tolas gold bar from the royal mint and mines of Bombay, India. The bar is valued at $2,500. George H. Russell, local mem- ber, 3538 Warder street northwest, who is not listed among the ex- hibitors, said he had two ancient coins, ‘‘Aeginae’’ of ancient Greece, which date back to 700 and 400 B. C. Coins originated in Lydia, ancient Greece, he said, and few col- lectors of ancient coins have com- plete collections. Business Sessions Tomorrow. The association meets annually for the purpose of stimulating in- terest in the collection of coins and as an aid to history. The organi- zation was founded in 1891 and has more than 1,000 members in this country, Canada and Europe. It is an incorporated body, having been granted a Federal charter by an act of Cengress in 1912. One characteristic of a coin col- lector is to fashion visiting cards after rare coins and currency. Many of the members have such cards. Business sessions’ of the convention will open tomorrow, while an extensive sightseeing tour has been planned. The Washing- ton convention bureau has installed an information bureau in the hotel. St. Martin’s Carnival Will Open Tomorrow St. Martin’s carnival, postponed last week because of rain, will open tomorrow night at 7:30 o’clock with a mardi gras on the church grounds at Lincoln road and T street northeast. ‘‘Muddy” Ruel, of the Washington . baseball club, will judge the most effective costume for which a prize will be awarded. Other features for the opening night will include the Knights of Columbus Clown band, dancing and a straw ride around the city. The Washington Boys’ Independent band is being sought for the car- nival. Dancing will be held every night, the carnival closing Satur- day night. The Rev. F. X. Cava- naugh, pastor of St. Martin’s church, is in charge. The proceeds will gé6 to the church. -« Widows and Orphans Of Veterans to Picnic A program of athletic events has been arranged for the fifth annual excursion of the widows and or- hans of the United States War eterans association to Marshall Hall Thursday. Among features of the outing will be a drill by the Rebekah de- gree team, in charge of Charles B.

The commission- | ers explained that the present mar- ket problem would be solved by that time, it was expected, and that the April meeting dealt with a plan for future market centers which must be arranged. Will Discuss Transportation. | At the meeting of June and Octo-| ber, next year, transportation ques- | | tions of the District will be dis-' cussed with a view to determining | what new thoroughfares will best | promote traffic in the outskirts of the city and how the probiem of truck traffic may best be solved for the business and wholesale sections. A study of terminals in this com- prehensive plan will deal with the location of Washington’s airport now sought by the District chapter of the National Aeronautic associa- tion, while the extension of the city’s library program will be ar- ranged at the meeting dealing with | neighborhood centerg. The Poto- mac driveway plan will be settled at sessions dealing with highways. Commissioners placed emphusis on the traffic feature of the pro- gram, maintaining that the new public building program and mar- ket relocation will mean changes in the traffic layout for many impor- tant sections and that these. must be arranged to the best advantage. Members Olmsted, Frederick A. Delano and J. I. Medary will study the public building plan with rela- tion both to this feature and the District plan. Mr. Barthclomew, one of the originators of this im- portant plan, will continue to act with the commission as an ad- visory. Of the $600,000 appropriation made to the commission by Con- gress, $325,000 has been spent or is being expended fpr land. Of the} remain@-~ $30,000 will be used to, procure expert planning saeina. | and $17,000 for other expenses. Of the estimated $175,000 remaining, an amount necessary for a play- ground in the northeast section will be reserved. To Seek Coolidge’s Aid. Coming td immediate parking plans, the commissioners asked the aid of President Coolidge in the re- tention of Forts Washington, Md. and Hunt, Va., for the District parks,.and will write him for advice concernjng the procedure. In calling the attention of Presi- dent Coolidge to the advisability of unt on opposite sides of the Poto- ac river, the commissioners said that there is pending in Congress legislation of the War Department to sell these reservations for its post construction fund, as well as legislation authorizing commission to buy them for parking. The ac- etaining Forts Washington and; quisition of this land by the Dis- trict involves a matter of Federal ! bookeeping on which the advice of the President is sought, it is de- clared. | It was announced that the com.’ mission will ascertain the cost of a i wtrcastia! and at it also head HN decided on condemnation of land for parking Forts Stevens and Slo- cum areas in the Northwest section. Wide Roadway Deferred. Building operations have so in- creased in this section that the question of obtaining a 120-foot roadway between the forts and from Fort Slocum eastward to was left for further study. Consideration will also be given to the Soapstone valley and Audu- bon terrace improvements, which include the relocation of Yuma street. The purchase of the Patter- son tract in connection with the Northeast recreational program was also advised. Plans for a 120-foot width for Conduit road were also approved. Tomorrow members of the com- mission will make a survey of the city with builders and contractors to obtain information regarding building areas and other data of value in connection with the new plan. Custody of Children ‘Denied Former Consul John O. Sanders, an attorney of Cassville, Mo., and former consul at Maracaibo, Venezuela, lost his fight yesterday in circuit court to | gain possession of his two children, i Mary, aged 7, and John, aged 4. Justice Jennings Bailey decided that the court had no jurisdiction over the children or their mother, Mrs. Leota G. Sanders, former wife of Sanders, by reason of her resi- ; dence at Clinton, Md. The children also reside at Clinton. Sanders sued out a writ of habeas corpus against his formér wife and alleged that she was unlawfully in posses- sion of the children. He based his contention on a decree of divorce granted him in Missouri which al- lowed him to have the children. Attorneys Hegarty & McCall ap- peared for Mrs. Sanders. She is employed at St. Elizabeths hos- pital.

EW motor cars with a new idea andan old name behind them—colorful crea- tions of custom design whose beauty is sweep- ing the country. In the first thirty days these new custom cars more than doubled the sales of Studebaker Sedans for any previous month. These Custom Sedans were inspired by the Studebaker Permanent Salon,in the Rose Room of the Hotel Plaza, New York. They sprang from the creative brain and handicraft of master designers of custom cars. The Victory of One-Profit Value In five short days over half a million people flowed in and out of Studebaker sales rooms all over the United States to see these new Custom Sedans—and their vote and verdict were as one... here, at last, is custom car lux- ury without custom car cost—here, at last, 1s the final custom beauty of ccntour, color and complete appointments at a price only Studebaker One-Profit facilities could make possible!

Under the hood of each is the mighty Studebaker L-head motor, long noted for a smooth, vibrationless flow of power which other makers are now striving to attain. Studebaker was a pioneer of the L-head design—today the accepted standard, specified by 70% of American manu- facturers. The largest manufacturers of other types of engines have resorted to L-head design for ali the new cars they have introduced during recent years. To the inherent advantages of L-head design, Studebaker adds a fully ma- chined, dynamically balanced crank- shaft. The $600,000 spent annually butlding balance into crankshafts te- sults in smoothness which cannot be duplicated by bolted-on counterweights and balancers. That sound design has been expressed in finest materials and workmanship, is proved by long lists of Studébakers with records of from 100,000 to 300,000 miles — proved by the fact that the Studebaker factory sells only $10 worth of repair parts per car in use per year —proved by notable victories over time and space, such as that of the Big Six Sheriff, which in 86 hours and 20 min- utes shattered the previous traijs-con- tinental record by 16 hours, 25 minutes and beat the fastest railroad train by more than 6 hours, went ‘JOSEPH McREYNOLDS, 14th Street at “R,” N.

BINGE LAW ASSOCIATION Address at New York Meeting Contained in Report of Proceedings. HEAD OF NATIONAL U. RETURNING THIS MONTH Dr. Carusi to Make Final Ar- rangements for Opening of 1926-1927 Year. The American Foreign Law as- sociation has honored Dr. Charles S. Lobingier, professor of Roman law and modern civil law at the National university law school, in the report of proceedings of its meeting held in conjunction with the American branch of the Inter- national Law association in New York May 1. Dr. Lobingier is chief attorney of the Department of Justice and formerly was United States judge in China and the Philippine Islands. The proceedings contain a ver- batim report of an address by Dr. Lobingier delivered on that occa- Sion on “Recent Legislation and Law Reform in Cuba.” In his Statements Dr. Lobingier empha- sized the fact that American com- merce now has become _ world- wide and that it means that Ameri- can merchants are bound to be con- cerned with the character of for- eign law. He declared that ‘“‘we must have in this country, if our commerce is to reach the propor- tions which it promises and de- serves, those who are competent to advise our business men regarding their rights and obligations, liabil- ities, dangers and opportunities in a legal way in foreign lands.” Carusi Returning This Month. Dr. Charles F. Carusi, chancellor of the university and dean of the law school, will return from White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., the latter part of this month to make final arrangements for the opening of the 1926-27 academic year. The faculty of the law school has expressed gratification at the show- ing made by graduates of the Na- tional University Law school in the last bar examinations, the results of which recently have been an- nounced. The editorial staff of the National University Law Review held a con- publication of the first number of the seventh volume. Several im- portant articles already have been received and others will be com- pleted with a few weeks. The forth- coming number also will contain a review of recent important decisions of various courts. Craig Journalism Instructor. William Boyd Craig will return to the university as instructor in jour- nalism and authorship in the school of economics and government. In this course, beginning in the fall term, better writing and composi- tion will be the key note. Short story and fiction writing will be in- cluded, and a critical study of the student’s written work will be un- dertaken in the classroom, thus cre- ating in the course a sort of liter- ary symposium. By actual test in many universities this system has been found to be the best method whereby the student may discover and remedy his weakness in writ- ing.

THE WASHINGTON POST: BACHELOR €LUB MEMBERS BARRED BY OWN RULES BACHELOR AS GUEST TO SOLE OCCUPANT OF EXCLUSIVE CLUB Sixteen “EAM All Barred From 1718 H Street North- west by Marriage Ties. a DISTINGUISHED NAMES ON MEMEENSTIIr ROLL Now Comaries “Family of Friends;” House Badly Dam- aged by Fire in 1922. One lone bachelor. eligible but hopelessly ana ‘tncorrigibly a bach- elor, occupies alomne—as a guest— one of the most exclusive clubs in the world, from which the sixteen living members are barred by their own rules—rules they made when they all were bachelors and sang of bachelors’ bliss. The club, without a name, is located at 1718 H street northwest, a few doors from the Metropolitan club. It was founded September 3, 1907, by thres young bachelor army officers, each of whom now is in- ternationally known and each of whom, also, is no longer a bachelor and can no longer live in his club- house—even if he wished to do so. Each of the three was then a captain. Now they are Col. James A. Logan, jr., Col. Sherwood A. Cheney, and Maj. Gen. Frank R. McCoy. Names Are Well The name of each of the other members is known to thousands in Washington, throughout the United States, in foreign capitals, and in little-known nooks and corners of the world—including the kind of places used by fiction writers for the setting of the efforts of their heroes against some mysterious power, upon the frustration of which depends things of which the general public never dreams. Photographs of each are in the possession of each of the news pic- ture services which profess to have a real collection of notable public persons and will be found, .-too, in the morgue, or, if you wish; in the library, of almost any fair sized newspaper, for each of the sixteen has done things which have brought him recognition, and each is young enough to promise more of the same kind of effort in the future. Whether it is of much conse- quence, or of no comsequence at all, each of the sixteen and each of the few guests who have. lived at their club in the years it has been in existence, is socially promi- nent. Could Tell Many a Tale. Almost any gathering of mem- bers could yield enough behind the scenes Stories to supply many a new tale and the basis for as many more bits of fiction. But these stories are never told for publica- tion and sedom told at all, al- though the members are in more or less daily contact with news re- porters, giving through them. a Known.

Nor is Blank a mem- ber, although also a very fine fel- low and a friend admired by all of the members. No, the club isn’t incorporated. There are no OoOfficers,—it really isn’t a club. Well, then, what is it? Family of Friends. It’s just a family, that’s all. A group of friends brought together in their temporary or permanent work for the government, though not all are in the government service. They own No. 1718 and lived there until barred by their own rules because they yielded the once boasted bliss of bachelorhood for the less boastful but apparently more blissful state of matrimony. And No. 1718 is as near as one , ever gets to pinning a name on this club of former bachelors. The same reticence which applies to discussion of No. 1718 affairs by members applies also to James Hicks, a colored butler, who has been butler at No. 1718 since the three bachelor army captains start- ed’ their bachelor club ]9 years ago. His wife aids in the care of the house. Hicks is not at all dissatisfied with his role of butler of No. 1718, but how great is his satisfaction one has to get by inference, be- cause Hicks is a firm believer in the unwritten law that the affairs of No. 1718 are never talked about publicly. But Hicks knows the intimate history of the club. He can tell to an hour when it was formed. He can tell who was the first of the bachelors to lose his place, and give the dates of the weddings of the others. More than that he can tell just where in the world every one of the family is at any given time. He can tell all these things, if he will. But he won't. Blaze Destroys Relics. Before dawn on January 29, 1922, the morning after the crash of the Knickerbocker theater, and while every available piece of fire apparatus and rescue device was at the Knickerbocker, fire broke out in No. 1718 and gutted that and the house next door, No. 1716. In that fire Billy, one of those large, long-haired sheep dogs, and suffocated by the smoke. Billy and Mrs. Billy had been brought to the clubhouse by Basil Miles, now head of the American section of the In- ternational Chamber of Commerce, with headquarters in Paris; but after Billy’s death Mrs. Billy was taken away. Scores’ of keepsakes, menentos, bits of art, gathered from the four corners of the earth in official and unofficial traveling of club members, were destroyed in that fire, includ- ing a fine library. The books burned, perhaps, had the greatest intrinsic value., One piece, however, came through with only a few more scratches than it had befofe. That was an old brass cannon which had been used on the prow of a piratical Malay craft in Far Eastern waters, which had been brought to Washington by a member. Their.mode of life rudely inter- rupted by that fire, the few mem- bers living there at the time made their. homes temporarily in hotels until No. 1718 was repaired. The house at present is being refinished inside. Members of No. 1718. . The defections of club members from ‘bachelorhood was for several lyeare almost as gradual as was the 7” . addition of new members to the family. To the original three mem- bers there- had been added the names of Leland Harrison, now Assistant Secretary of State; Mr. Miles, William Phillips, first chief of the Far Eastern division of the State Department, later Assistant Secretary of State and now United States Ambassador to Belgium; Willard Straight, who succeeded Mr. Phillips as head of the Far East- ern division of the State Depart- ment and who died of influenza while working with the American peace mission in Paris. Also Henry P. Fletcher, formerly Ambassador to Mexico and now Ambassador to Italy; Eliot Wads- worth, head of the American Red Cross in the world war, formerly Assistant Secretary of the Treasury and now practicing law in Boston; Maj. Gen. Clarence C. Williams, now chief of ordnance of the army; George T. Summerlin, United States Minister to Honduras; reorge Marvin, author, now residing on his estate in Virginia; Eliot Good- win, now resident vice president and active director of the work of the United States Chamber of Com- merce. Also Andrew J. Peters law- yer and former mayor of Boston at the time of the police strike there; James F. Curtis, Assistant Secre- tary of the Treasury in the admin- istration of President Taft, and now practicing law in New York; Benjamin Strong, governor of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and Frederick A. Sterling, who managed a cattle ranch, manufac- tured woolen goods, and quit both to enter the diplomatic service as a secretary of the American embassy at Petrogard in 1911 and has since served in various diplomatic posts. Guests of the Club. Among others who, while not members, have been guests of the club, which is not a club, made their homes there while in Washington are Hugh Gibson, Minister’ to Switzerland; Representative mund Carpenter, of Pennsylvania; Maj. Gen. John L. Hines, chief of staff of the army. The adjournment of Congress and the forthcoming elections took Representative Carpenter from his residence in the clubhouse, leaving Col. Winship Blanton, of the judge advocate general’s office of the army, lone bachelor, as the guest of the club. The gradual. capitulation of the bachelors through the years became an utter rout last year. Some time before former Mayor Peters had fallen in love and married the sister of his brother bachelor member, Mr. Phillips, others had married and set up new establishments. But the number of remaining bachelors had remained about the same—enough of them at least to make a showing. Weds in Few Months. Mr. Summerlin probably broke the record of all members. He be- came a member last year and was married within a few months, and before the middle of the year the last four bacholérs were married, Col. Logan, American observer = at Geneva; Mr. Miles, and Mr: Harri- son The Assistant Secretary of State was the last’ to become a benedict, marrying last June 27 and moving out of No. 1718. Now, except for Col Winship, No 1718 is deserted Once a year, former residents of No. 1718 are in Washington at the same time, the former bachelors hold a get-togeth- er meeting at the clubhouse. Is the club to be broken up? no. It isn’t a club. It’s just a family, and families: are familles as long as the members are alive. Oh, Ed-|N. whenever a sufficient number of’ a= MUSEUM TO EXHIBIT GURGAS COLLECTION LOANED BY WIDOW Smithsonian Announces Com- ing of Effects of “Conqueror of Yellow Fever.” MEDALS FROM ENGLAND, ITALY, FRANCE AND U. S. Relics Range From Baptismal Robes to Honors Conferred at Deathbed. A collection of the decorations, honors and personal effects of Maj. Gen. William Crawford Gorgas, “conqueror of the yellow fever,’’ soon will be placed on exhibition in the National Museum, according to an announcement from the Smith- sonian Institution. The collection has been loaned to the museum by the widow of Gen. Gorgas. Among the honors included in the collection are decorations awarded the general by England, Italy and France as well as by his own country. The star of a knight commander of the distinguished order of St. Michael and St. George was conferred on Gen. Gorgas on his deathbed in London by King George. King Victor Emmanuel III con- ferred on him the grand cross of the order of the Crown of Italy, while France awarded him the grand cross of the legion of honor. This country presented him the dis- tinguished service medal. Uniform in Collection. Among the effects loaned to the Smithsonian by Mrs. Gorgas are his dress uniform as major general, the American flags which draped his coffin during funeral services in St. Paul’s cathedral, the bap- tismal robes of his infancy and a pair of beaded moccasins which he wore in his childhood. Gen. Gorgas is best known for his work in combating yellow fever in Cuba and later in the Panama Canal Zone. Following in the footsteps of Walter Reed, who first isolated the stegomyia mos- quito, carrier of the disease, Gen. Gorgas reduced the death rate from yellow fever in Havana from 500 a year to zero. He accomplished this largely by keeping empty virtually every water container— rain barrel or flower vase—in a city of several hundred thousand. Made Canal Zone Healthful. In 1904 Gen. Gorgas took c”™arge of the sanitary work in connection with the building of the Panama canal. With his help the United States accomplished what the French had failed to do in 20 years of effort. The success of the American attempt depended upon the ability of Gen. Gorgas to stamp out the fever. From a pest hole he transformed the Canal Zone into one of the most healthful spots in America. Later Gen. Gorgas helped to eliminate pneumonia among the natives working in South African mines and to eradicate yellow fever in South Africa. As surgeon general in the world war he had entire charge of the medical work of the American army. NAVY ASSIGNMENTS. REAR ADMIRAL -—tecine A. Bost- wick, to Washington L IU TENANT a.

The Hindu theosophist, sponsored by Mrs. Anne Besant, 80-year-old president of the Theosophical soci- /ety, will appear at a convention in \September. The youth is hailed by |theosophists as the vehicle through which the Guiding Spirit of the Unit- verse speaks and acts. He will unite all religions, they say.

Both Spano and Aiello are re- ported to have come here as gun- men for the six Genna brothers. three of whom have lost their lives in bootleg feuds since 1924.

ACTRESS WOULD TRY — -— eC APPEARING WITH BOB}| Discard Her Wig in Gou- noud’s ‘‘Faust.”’ Chicago, Aug. 21 (By A. P.).— A chance to try the effect on an audience of her blond curly bob instead of a heavy blond wig, as Marguerite, in Gounod’s is the ambition of Mme. Elisabeth Rethberg, of the Metropolitan and Ravinia Opera companies. ‘‘Bobbed hair has been universally recog- nized,’’ says Mme. Rethberg. ‘‘so why not let one naturally equipped with the color of hair required for the part appear in a bob instead of a ponderous braided wig?’’ Back of the dgsire to appear with her own hair exhibited is the fear all artists are said to feel— that their wig may some day slip or fall off and create consternation, confusion and ridicule. ‘I would like some Gay to sing Marguerite without a wig, and I feel sure that no audience would take offense.’’ Tradition seems to demand that the artisis of the opera fulfill the medieval mode of the scene to the last detail. Few are endowed by nature with tresses appropriate to the occasion, but one striking ex- ception is Mme. Tamaki Miura, the Japanese prima donna, whose Cho- Cho San in “‘Mme. Butterfly’ is absolutely true to life. In the new opera in English produced here last winter, Mme. Miura took the name part of Namiko San, costumed and coiffured as in her girlhood days. 15 NEW RADIO BEACONS WILL GUIDE SHIPPING Lighthouse ‘Bureau Increases Service for Distant Com- pass Control. (By the Associated Press.) Plans for expanding the govern- ment program for protection of ship- ping along the Atlantic coast, the Great Lakes and around Hawaii, calling for establishment of fifteen new radio beacon stations by next June 30, were announced yesterday by the lighthouse bureau. Sites for eleven of the new sta- tions have been selected and if funds permit, four others will be set up. Each station will be equipped with an automatic radio signal with a definite code which will enable ships equipped with radio compasses to obtain accurate bearings without de- pending upon visibility. The new stations, which will augment the 27 now in operation, will be established at Stratford Shoal, Long Island sound; Winter- quarter lightship, Va.; St. Johns river and Jupiter inlet, Fla.; Dry Tortugas, west of Key West, in the Gulf of Mexico; southern part of Lake Superior; Point Betsie, near Frankfort, Lake Michigan, Mil- waukee breakwaters, Lake Michi- gan; Grays harbor, Wash., and Ma- kapuu point, Hawaii. If money is available two other stations will be located in Long Island sound and two in Lake Michigan. $450,000 Allotted To Maintain Canal Secretary of War Davis. has ap- proved an allotment of $460,000 for the operation and care of the inland waterway from the Delaware river to Chesapeake bay.

BLACKLISTING FEARED FOR THOSE WHO OPPOSE Amended Bill Filed for 18,000 Contends Government Can Not Be Partner. ——— - ————-—-—- — The fruit and vegetable firms of Leonard, Crossett & Riley and the S. A. Gerrard Co., of Cincinnati, Ohio, who have taken upon them- selves in behalf of about 18,000 fruit and vegetable handlers throughout the country the burden of endeavoring to prevent William M. Jardine, Secretary of Agri- culture, from putting into execution his plans for Federal cooperation with the handlers, have launched a new attack upon Mr. Jardine in the equity courts of this city. The first attack failed because, in the opinion of Justice Bailey, the plaintiffs failed to show that they had sufficient interest in the plans which Mr. Jardine intends to put into effect. Plan Called “Paternalism.” The new attack, in the shape of an amended bill, brands the scheme of cooperation as a sort of paternal- ism to be frowned upon by the courts, It appears from the amend- ed bill that fruit and vegetable handlers who do not enter into the scheme and become a “partner’”’ with the department and carry the department’s seal or insignia on their goods and in their advertise- ments, will be ‘‘blacklisted’”’ as the buying public will be, by inference, urged to patronize only such hand- lers who wear the department seal or insignia. It is unlawful, the plaintiffs contend, for any firm or person to advertise the Federal gov- ernment ‘‘as a partner in their business,’’ as Mr. Jardine plans to permit his ‘‘partners’’ who agree to the cooperative scheme, to do. It appears from the amended Dill that there is a possibility of the publication of a list of fruit and vegetable handlers who do. not agree to become a “partner’’ with Mr. Jardine, and if such a thing happens, the plaintiffs state, there will be in existence an official black- list which will do immense damage to thousands of fruit and vegetable handlers who are conducting a le- gitimate business. 9 Handling Product Concerned. The scheme of cooperation has to do with grading, storage and handling of fresh fruits and vege- tables and the settlement of dis- putes concerning the handling, grading and storage. By this scheme, it is contended, Mr. Jardine. is setting himself up as a sort of food administrator, re- sponsible to no one but himself. Of the 20,000 handlers circular- ized by the department on the co- operative scheme, it is alleged re- plies from only 2,100 have been received. Such a small number of replies do not warrant Mr. Jardine to conclude that there is a wide demand for Federal cooperation, it is asserted. The court is again asked to re- strain Mr. Jardine and prevent him from putting into effect his coop- erative scheme. Mississippi Boosters Are Feted at Danville Special to The Washington Post.

New Party Being Formed. (Special Cable Dispatch.) Mexico City, Aug. 21.—President Calles’. advice to the bishops of Mexico to apply to the Mexican congress for reformation of the antichurch laws has brought out the fact that for sdveral weeks prominent Mexicans have been working for the formation of a new political organization to be called the ‘Political and Social Liberal Party,’”’ which will embrace the better elements of the nation, pledged to national uplift. According to the foremost Lacker of the party, it already has a well defined program—neither church nor antichurch. | “We are taking the only road for building up Mexico,” the authority said. ‘‘The church will be behind us because we believe in giving the Catholics the same show as all civ- ilized nations. But the party will not submit to Catholic interference or domination. We propose to re- form the land laws so as to once more establish rural credit. We will not permit confiscation of land without full payment for it. And we will insist on payment for lands already taken, insisting that those who have received donations of lands help in the payments. “We believe that all undeveloped nations like ours need foreign help, and we intend to encourage and protect foreign investments in Mex- ico. We intend to reform the land laws so as to protect Mexicans and foreigners alike, in the possession of land and property.’”’ (Copyright, 1926, by the Chicago Tribune.) “Broadway Brevities’ ” Premiere at Gayety Washington’s burlesque season got underway last night at the Gayety theater with the first per- formance of the new season, ‘Broadway Brevities.’’ This was in the nature of a premiere, the production getting its baptism of fire at last night’s performance. There are many rough spots to be smoothed out, but the company is an excellent one, headed by Mike Sacks, a Jewish comedian, who is assisted by a new-comer to burles- que, Jack Kenny. Inez Marvin, a blues singer; Ed- die Rector and Ralph Cooper, colored dancers; Ethel Albertini, soprono, and Syd Burke, jazzist, were well received by the audience that packed the old burlesque house last night. Ira La Motte, manager of the Gayety, has had the theater overhauled iuring the summer. Veteran Elk Is Found Dead on Mountainside Special to The Washington Post. Bedford, Va., Aug. 21.—F. L. Van Arsdale, 76 years old, resident of the Elks National Home here, was found dead on the side of Otter mountain today. It is believed he had been dead about 24 hours. He went up to the peak of the moun- tain to visit Jack Ray. That after- noon he, with Ray and others, went down the mountain to the ‘‘Needle’s Eye.’ The party continued on far- ther when Van Arsdale said he would wait there until their re- turn. When the party returned they failed to find him. They searched the remainder of the day and all night. Later a scouting party was organized and continued the search until he was found about 3 miles from the spot where he was last seen. It is believed he succumbed to exhaustion.

FATAL SHOOTING ENDS DOMESTIC ARGUMENT Revolver Bullet Kills Robert Bailey, 50; Wife Arrested on Murder Charge. THE WASHINGTON POST BUREAU, 124 Ny Patritk St., Alexandria, Va. The work of constructing the main building of the district home for the poor at Manassas, contract for which has just been awarded by Mayor William Albert Smoot, chairman of the pdoarda of govern- ors, has been started by Knight & Clark, of this city, who expect to have the building completed and ready for occupancy by Novem- ber 1. The project for the consolidation of the facilities for caring for the indigent of Alexandria and the counties of Fairfax, Fauquier, Prince William and Culpeper was adopted at a-meeting of those in- terested, held here last April, when an ‘organization was formed, known as the governing board, with Mayor William Albert Smoot as chairman. The project contem- plated the establishment of a fund of $50,000 for procurement of plant and for maintenance, and the abolishment of the present system of alsmhouses. After several meetings had been held, a site was selected in the vi- cinity of Manassas and bids for the construction work asked. The main building will be in the form of the letter “‘H,”’ of brick, one story in height, and will be so arranged that wings may be added as they may be required. Separate depart- ments are provided for white and colored inmates. The building will provide an abundance of light and air, and modern sanitary plumbing will*be installed. The services of a physician and nurse will be avail- able when required. Nothing will be left undone to make the life of those unfortunates dependent upon the community for support as com- fortable as possible. In addition to other advantages, the new arrangement is expected to be more economical than the present system of separate alms- houses for each community. The property of the Alexandria almshouse, located just beyond the city limits, consists of a large brick building and spacious grounds, and within the last few years this has become very valuable. It is ex- pected that steps will be taken by the city council at an early date to dispose of this property. Brooding over domestic troubles, and incensed by a quarrel over a small sum of money, Mary Bailey, colored, 34 years old, yesterday afternoon shot her husband, Robert Bailey, 50, in the abdomen with a small revolver, inflicting a wound from which he died a few minutes later. Police Sergt. Sims, on desk duty at headquarters, received a mes- sage at 3:25 o’clock yesterday after- noon that a colored man had been Shot at 722 Jefferson street, in the “Bears Gap” district. The _ ser- geant, accompanied by City Man- ager Paul Morton, went to the ad- dress and found Bailey mortally wounded. The man was taken to the Alexandria hospital by James Waters and Howard Ware, but died before reaching there. Sergt. Sims and Mr. Morton then went to the Bailey home, 809 South Wash- ington street, a few doors from where the shooting took place and were met at the door by the Bailey woman, who showed them the re- volver. She is being held at police headuarters, ‘without bond, on a charge of murder. Coroner Jones, after viewing the body last night, issued a certificate of death by shooting, and the woman will be given a preliminary hearing in po- lice court tomorrow. The last of a series of five union services will be held at 7:30 o’clock this evening in the Methodist Prot- estant church, with the Rev. Ernest M.

There is unani- mous opposition to the locating of these markets upon the Patterson tract in the Northeast section for in the opinion of those who have been working upon the matter, such a move upon the part of the City club or other civic organizations would be tantamount to putting the stamp of approval upon the scheme for placing a belt line around the city of Washington. “Ostensibly, if the civic organi- zations representing the city were to place their approval upon that location, it would automatically provide ways and means for event- ually putting into existence of the belt line. Not immediately, perhaps, but certainly in the future, when the opposition to it had died, thus necessitating the arousing of the people by means of another expon- sive publicity campaign. This opin- ion is largely shared by organiza- tions in Maryland and Virginia op- posed to the belt line. They see in the Northeast location of the markets a menace which will pave the way for reopening the entire project if not its ultimate accom- plishment. Favor Waterfront Site. ‘Boiled down and stripped of its intricate details, the general opinion is that the most logical place for a large marketing organi- zation would be the water front, situated as close to the municipal fish market and wharves as pos- sible, where Congress originally in- tended it to go when they passed the bill of 1901. No location is more ideally situated than this one, for the nucleus of a marketing or- ganization is already there; second- ly, the entire railroad organization of termini from all directions and upon which the entire city is de- pendent, is located within a stone’s throw of the water front. It would seem senseless, in view of this, to place it elsewhere, and’ by the same token, it would certainly serve the interests of economy bet- ter to have a consolidation of mar- ket water and railroad facilities in one location. “Another factor of import that is generally lost sight of is that the northeast section around Patter- son tract is largely a residential section. In point of fact, no matter how orderly such institutions are conducted, they are bound to be more or less messy, and so would affect this section very materially in growth, whereas the water front section is not a residential section, nor would the disorder of a busy day affect it in tne slightest, but under no circumstances should the market be located where there is the slightest possibility of jeopar- dizing the future. growth of the city.” Whitworth Enters State Senate Race Special to The Washington Post.

Rains were beneficial to the corn crop and the market ruled weak. §Bar- ley was also lower but oats prices | were not materially changed. With the world’s 4upply of wheat this year so far as reported no larger than lagt, foreign wheat mar- kets failed to follow the recent de- cline in the United States markets. Trade reports also indicate unfa- vorable weather for harvesting in northwestern Europe, which is likely to delay the movement of the new wheat. Rains in the soft win- ter wheat belt of the United States ,and in the spring wheat belt of “poth this country and Canada de- layed harvesting and threshing and not only retarded movement but lowered the quality of much of the wheat coming to market. All of these were strengthening -factors and wheat prices regained most of the decline of the previous week.

OTHER OILS ARE STEADY Special to The Washington Post. New York, Aug. 21.--In one of the dullest Saturday half sessions of the summer, the movement of 2 prices on the stock exchange was not particularly impressive, and, with the exception of a few of the more prominent industrials and specialties, net changes for the day were unimportant. | General Asphalt was an outstand- ing feature of the market. Cross- ing 81 to.a new high record at the opening, it sold up rapidly to 88%, 8% points above yesterday’s close. The preferred did even better, ad- vancing to 132 for a gain of ten points. The strength in these is- sues revived rumors which had been abroad in previous outbreaks of active buying of the stocks. It was suggested that reported plans for the segregation of the South American Oil properties and inter. ests from its asphalt business were nearing completion and that nego- tiations looking toward a new oil company, composed of those prop- erties and others, including possibly the Maracaibo holdings, might be got under way before long. New York and Chicago Nanking inter- ests, reported to have acquired an interest in the properties several months ago, are understood to ap- prove such a deal. Other oil stocks were quiet and steady. Other issues to record gains were United States Steel, General Motors, Tobacco Products, United Cigar, Allied Chemical, Mack Trucks, American Safety Razor, Case Threshing Machine, Certain-teed Products, Remington, Westing- house Air Brake, and New York Air Brake. MHeaviness was noted’ in General Motors at the start, but later the stock rallied to 203, when profit-takirg sent it back to 201%, for a net gain of 1% points. United States Steel common also rebound- ed, selling as high as 151%. On a sale of only 100 shares National Tea showed a loss of 13 points from the previous quotation. Dealings in the railroad division were smaller than usual and prices were irregular. About the only consistent buying was done in Rock Island, which moved within a nar- row range. Traders did not ap- pear to be interested in transpor- tation shares, although it is ex- pected that some very good reports of operating results for Juy will appear next week. Particular men- tion is made in that connection of Rock Island, Atchison and other Granger roads. Delaware & Hud- son lost over 2 points of its gains 4f yesterday. On the whole, the news of the day was favorable marketwise. Contradicting rumors current here yesterday that the steel trade had experienced a sudden setback, Pittsburgh dispatches reported that no unfavorable developments had occurred in any of the steel lines. said. Indications point to a larger production of steel this month than last and that it may even pass that of June. Summaries of general trade and industrial conditions also were highly satisfactory. It was pointed out that business was rapid- ly emerging from summer dullness. The foreign exchange market was irregular. Sterling was off a little at $4.85 15-16. French francs were unchanged at 2.86% cents. CHICAGO GRAIN. Chicago, Aug. 21 (By the Associ- ated Press).—Alluring reports of a rosy “ree outlook in -Canada took wheat values downward today. Clos- ing quotations on Wheat. were heavy 15% to 2% cents net lower, with corn 1% to 1% cents down, oats 14 to ™ cent off and provisions varying from unchanged figures to 15 cents | decline. Emphasizing the bearish effect oe Canadian crop advices were unlooked for setbacks in wheat prices at Liver- pool and the view was strongly urged by some trade leaders that the North American wheat surplus this season will be enough larger last year to offset European es. Considerable falling off n the volume of current ex- port business also was a weaken- -e. factor. he gist of the Canadian news was a summary based on reports from 300 unofficial correspondents indicat- ing that there has been a wonder- ful recovery of the Wheat Saskatchewan, and that yield in the three prairie provinces will ‘be as large as in 1925—that is, about 390,000,000 bushels. Expectation of another large in- crease of the United States wheat visible supply total on Monday tend- ed further to deprive the Chicago wheat market of fresh buying sup- port. A good deal of notice, too, was taken of drastic measures to curtail the use of breadstuffs in France. On the other hand the Canadian crop estimates were by no means unani- mously accepted here and some au- thorities ma ntgined there will be a material decrease of the crop in Sa katachewan, comprising 13,000,000 of the total acreage of 22,000,000 for the three prairie provinces. Corn and oats sympathized "Sith wheat weakness. Growth conditions for corn were favorable but a late is requisite.

New York, Aug. 21 (By A. P.).— The cotton market was quiet today and fluctuated within a range of 8 or 9 points. December contracts ad- vanced to 186.78 in early trading, and after easing off to 16.70 closed at 16.73, compared with 16.72 at the close yesterday. The general market closed steady at a net decline of points on October, but generally to 4 points higher. The opening was steady at a de- cline of 1 point to an advance of 2 points. There may have been a lit- i tle selling on. the relatively easy Showing of Liverpool and rather less favorable week-end reviews of the cotton goods situation, but it was soon absorbed and prices rallied dur- ing the forenoon on reports of fur- ther showers in the South and a re- newal of prebureau covering. October sold up to 16.76 and Janu- ary to 16.85, about 4 to 6 points net higher, but demand tapered off at these figures and prices eased later under liquidation, w vhich appeared to be largely in the October position. That delivery sold down to 16.67 and January to 16.78, but the close was 2 or 3 points up from the lowest. Loca) traders said they saw noth- ing in the action of prices to suggest any change of sentiment as to the probable showing of next Monday's government crop report. The small volume of business, was regarded as indicating that accounts had been pretty well evened up in preparation for the condition figures and that traders were waiting on the showing of the report or for further weather developments’ before undertaking fresh commitments, Private cables re + gagrhany hedge sell- ing with local and_ continental liq- uidation in Liverpool,and complained of poor demand for yarn and cloths owing to expectations of lower prices. The amount of cotton on shipboard awaiting clearance at the end of the week was estimated at 47,000 bales, against 30,000 bales last year. The average of eight private re- ports published during the past ig days pointed to a condition of 65 and a crop indication of about 15, 435,- 000 bales. Futures: October .

This decision was reached at a conference of the athletic au- thorities this morning. Virginia Mineral is a beautiful mountain resort with a remarkably fine group of mineral springs. The health conditions and general sur- ideal for football here last year and the sentiment of all present was unanimous in favor of returning. Craig creek furnishes a@ most inviting bathing beach which has been improved by the new management. The field where the Maroons held their practice last season has also been put in much better condition. The squad will be quartered in four double cottages. which have running water and baths. Meals will be served in the main dining room of the hotel. The Maroon candidates, the coaches and the manager will arrive at Virginia Mineral for breakfast on the morn- ing of September 1. Practice will be held at 10 a. m. and 2:30 pp. m. and the daily swim is scheduled immediately following the after- noon practice session.

In declining to permit. the ad- ministration to halt the game, the court held that the ‘‘mayor of the city, in his capacity of administra- tive officer, safeguarding the peace ’| and quiet of the city, may not an- ticipate that there will be a breach of the peace at a ball game on Sun- day.”’ The Sunday of 1794, the court asserted, was framed under condi- tions which have changed greatly since its enactment. ‘66 considering 7 alone,” said the opinion, “what in the days of 1794 might have offended, today is absolutely disregarded. The framers of the law of 1794 never could have conceived of a city over’ 2,000,000 population, such as Philadelphia today. In a statement, accompanying his opinion, Judge Smith said the decision ‘‘fairly raises’’ the issue of Sunday baseball, and added: “If a breach of the peace occurs by reason of such a game the po- lice department has full power to act; furthermore, if by the play- ing of such game or games, a nuisance is created, the courts of equity have ample power to protect the peace and quiet and right of undisturbed religious worship to which the residents of that section of the city are entitled on Sunday. Connie Mack, manager of the Athletics, was greatly pleased with the decision and said that every effort would be made to prevent anything which might be construed as a breach of the peace. A storm of protest is expected from advocates of the closed Sab- bath. The Rev. William B. Forney, gecretary of the Philadelphia Sab- bath association, said his organiza- tion was prepared to take immedi- ate action. Thomas D. Taylor, chairman of the Methodist Men’s Committee of 100, which has fought the open Sunday at the Sesquicentennial. also made plans for action against the Athletics’ management. now~Rnes Annual Typo Tourney Gets Underway Today St. Louis, Aug. 21.—Union print- er baseball aspirants from all sec- tions of the country are gathered here ready for the start of the an- nual International typo tourna- ment, which gets under way today.

Farn- ham Miller is also a possible starter for the local club. In Carl Ahlen- feldt, the canoe club has a veteran of many Chain Bridge-Key Bridge swims, although he is young in years. When Ahlenfeldt was 15 years of age he won a medal by finishing seventh in a similar race to next Saturday’s. New York A. C. swimmers are expected to make a strong bid for the team prize. Aside from the champion, Ross, it has a performer far above the average in Diege), who qualified for the last Olympic team but due to illness did not rep- resent this country in the games.

Section A Honors May Rest on Outcome of Battle. By WALTER HAIGHT. ENEWAL of the Shamrock- Knickerbocker feud tops to- day’s program within the ju- risdiction of the Capital City Base- hall league’s unlimited champion- “ship series. The conditions sur- -younding the game could hardly be “*‘nore auspicious at this stage of the - apace. Plowing ahead with the same **tirive which carried them to the Dis- trict title last season, the Knicker- bockers have won all six of their starts and are ‘“‘sitting pretty” on top of the Section A heap. ‘ A half game behind, due to an eearly series loss toxArlington, hover ithe Shamrocks, heretofore ready to take the lead should the Knicks be - of es : “R a * ~~ sefeated and now confident that the | diay will earn them a victory over | their.rivals and a tie for the leader- | ship. / scene of most of the Knick-Harp games, has heen cast aside for today’s hos- tilities, as far’as this game is concerned.

Referring to the meeting of the “Knicks and Harps as a feud is not "altogether figurative. Their claghes date back to 1921, and on at least “one occasion fists and bats are al- ““eged to have been swung with may “licious intent. "* In 1920 the first independent championship series was staged, a “down and out” affair, at the old ““tnion league park. The Knicks did not enter that year and the Sham- “* rocks failed to reach the finals. The following season both clubs “were in the city series, which. as it ‘Is now. was a two-game-around af- fair. The Shamrocks won.the first *'Same from the Knicks, and in the ‘*third inning of the second clash, if memory serves, the Harps were jeading by four runs when, after a protested strike, a spectator struck Umpire Sam Johnson. HE incident led to the Knicka withdrawing from the series and they farled fo enter the annual race in 1922. Three games were played be- tween the rivals in 1928, with the Knicks taking two, both by scores of 6 to 5, and the Sham- rocks getting the other by 10 ~ to 7. was this fact that the af . The Southeast club made a clean Sweep of the 1924 games, annexing .the trio by margins of 10 to 4, 7,to & and 10 to 3. The Shamrocks captured the District title in that campaign. Six games were recorded last year, equally. divided in and out of “the city series. In the preseries | ; games, the Harps, won all. The “scores were 3 to 1, 15 to 8 and 9 to uy § With that record, the Sham- rocks were heavy favorites to take “She title when they met the Knicks in the play-off for the champion- ship, each team having won out ca ‘in its section. ‘““ In the three-game setto, the “Knicks drew first blood by a 6 to 4 ‘score, but the Harps came back to *Yake the second clash, 5 to 0. With -ethe ‘“‘rubber’’ game on at Washing- ston barracks, the rivals played as ‘brilliant a titular game as has ever «deen staged here. Ross Fisher beat Tommy Thompson, 1 to 0, in a real pitchers’ duel. O date this season ‘the to- day's principals have met 3 once with the Shamrocks, . carrying off the honors, 9 to 5. In the five years of this rivalry, the Shamrocks have won ten of the fourteen clashes. To get back to the game at hand, the contestants appear, on paper at least, to be as evenly matched as Ahey could be. Both have strong pitching staffs, both in quality and quantity, and each is strong afield ,and at bat. The Shamrocks have ,a slight edge in batting but the Knicks seem slightly the better on “the defense. o>» It is a safe bet that either ‘‘Fin- Sney”’ Kelly or ‘‘Lefty’’ Kuhnert will “do the hurling for the Harps, the tinal decision resting with the pre- ngame conference of ‘‘Mike’’ Moran, otfWee Willie’ Glasco and “Nancy” Steele. Oddly enough, the Knicks have yet to defeat either of that ~pair since their organization. -- Manager Pete Haley probably Will wait until the last minute to i his pitcher.

In the other games Addison mixes it with Fort Myer on the Soldiers’ diamond; Ballston will be at Hume Spring, while the Virginia White Sox tackle the Glen Carlyn nine on the Ball- ston field. The two games that Hartford has with Cherrydale will either make or break that team as far as championship aspirations are con- cerned. Cherrydale is at present burning along in first place, hav- ing won its six games.

The Addison-Fort Myer game should be a hard-fought affair. The Soldiers are on the heels of Cherry- dale afid mean to stay there until the opportunity arrives to take the top. Addison, after a poor start in* which it was nosed out in three games, has gathered momentum and won its last three.games. One of the Addison losses was at the hands of the service team, ALSTON defeated Hume Spring in the first clagh of | those teams and the Hume boys are anxious to even the count today on the home lot. Ballston is still in the race, but must win today. Glen Carlyn hopes rm senteter its second series victory at the expense of the Virginia White Sox in their clash on the Ballston diamond. Glen Carlyn has shown to better advan- tage since its defeat early in the race by the Sox and may even the game younger team, will send his count today. ad TO HAVE VETERAN LINE Coach Neale Expects All But 2 Guards to Return. HARLOTTESVILLE, Aug. 21. C of Virginia linemen season ahead, only positions will the two guard remain to be filled by Earle Neale, head coach of foot- ball at the university. Ted Phillips, well and Wat Bic tackles, center; Tyler. ends, are all expected to tember 6, away. who will not be out are Charlie Mackall, captain-elect; Ashley fuard; Howard Holland, Bill Bramble, end, and Reynolds, center. Ten candidates probably will be on hand for the two guard positions that must be filled by the time of the first game with Hampden-Sid- ney on September 25, and Charlie Fenwick, who will: assist Coach Neale as line coach, has already looked over the material in spring football practice. OE FINCK, Charlie Peyton # and Ben Thompson played as substitute guard in some of the games last year; Hugh McCormick was guard on the scrubs, and Fite and DeButts played with the first-year team. Neither of the men who were guards on the undefeated first- year team of ’24 were available last year, for Drury Woods was hurt in early practice and Mau- rice LeBauer, who is junior met- ropolitan shot-put champion, was busy in first- “year medicine. now only two for guard and Cockrill, tackle: Both these men are expected to report for practice. Austin, a big freshman, who did not try for last fall’s team, has also been called into| = action. Bill Luke and Bill Symington are two big men who tried out as var- sity tackles, but who were injured before the season began. Both should ‘be on hand tc press Cardwell and Tyler for their places. The first-year team should _§ furnish Copps, Russell and Johnson as tackles. Besides Ahner and _ Friedburg there seems to be a scarcity of ends, for Frank Meade is the. only man on either the second team or the scrubs who will be back to try for the wing position. Hofheimer and McGuire will come up from the first- year squad. George Taylor may vaderstudy Phillips at center unless he is given a trial as an end when Coach Fen- wick will have to scout about to find a second string snapper-back.

In ‘the first game, the Freers copped a c to 4 decision after being led most lof thé way, while last Sunday the | Corinthians grabbed their victory ‘in the tenth inning with Scheer’s triple supplying the winning punch. The score of that game was 11 to 9. HE Freers, for the most part, are hoys with ex- perience with high school teams and are under the man- agement of John (“Sparky’’) O’Brien, with Business last spring. On the other hand, the Corinthians are strictly sandlot products. Walter Newman, who has kept Corinthian teams prominent for a number of seasons, is in charge of the section A winners. | Clayton, Scheer or Corbin will hurl for the Corinthians today, |'while the Freers will rely on “‘Lefty”’ | Stevens, winner of the first game, or | Joe Madden.

Alumni field September 6 for the first practice of the season, Coaches Blandy Clarkson and Bill Raftery will be faced with the problem of develop- ing a complete backfield, Last year the Cadets boasted a veteran set of ball carriers behind an inexperienced line, but during the coming season. the situation will be reversed. A forward wall seasoned by a year’s experience s the first-year squad. should lend defensive strength to the flying squadron, but a question mark must stand for the scoring ability of light and green backs. The greet ‘“‘Windy’’ White, Capt. Snail Caldwell, Frisk Harmeling, Johnny Willis, and Dutch Deitrich are the sterling backs who have been lost by graduation. Buck Barkley, a sturdy end, is the other letter man who has played his time. Curly Gfroerer, a substitute back, is the only letter man available this season. THER reserve backs who are likely candidates are Nabers, Farley, who was kept out of the game on account of an operation last fall; Walker, who tried out for the line last year; Chapman, Bel- linger, Wolf, Minter and West. Barnes,. Harner, Bishop and Moore come up from the first- year team to try for varsity berths. Nine letter men, two of whom were substitutes, will form the line nucleus. These are Capt. Johnny Fain, end; Rugh and Mondy, cen- ters; J. Smith and O’Berry, guards: Moorman and Kulp, tackles, and Kearney and Kelly,. substitutes. Moss, an end, and Hewlett, R. Smith, Beatty. and Graber are the outstanding freshman prospects from last year’s baby squadron. Three ends, Thornhill, Yates and Crockett, with Adams, Joyner and Nied, are reserves from last year with varsity possibilities. Head Coach Clarkson, his seventh season in charge of Cadet teams, will be assisted by practically the same staff as last year. Bill Raftery for the fifth season will coach the backfield, as- sisted by Kent Lambert, former Wabash star. John Moreland, for- mer Alabama center, will take charge of the scrub elevens. Paul Caldwell, captain of 1925 team, and M. G, Ramey, for- mer assistant freshman coach, will return to assist Maj. Heflin with Frank Gorton, V. M. I.’s new director of physical education, and John Player, varsity wrestling coach, will take charge of the training and conditioning of beginning 64; the team. The Cadets will play their usual ten-game schedule, opening a week earlier than most of ‘the other Southern Conference teams. Wof- ford college, for the third succes- sive season, will face the Cadets in the curtain raiser. The schedule follows: September 18, Weinert at Lexington; 25, Richmond at Lexingto October 2, Georgia Tech at Atlanta: 9 Roa- noke at Lexington; 16. Virginia at Lexington: 23, N. C.

He made 24 hits for an aver- © age of .522. : Schmidt, of Labor, accounted for second honors, being the only other batter above the .500 mark. His average was .508 for sixteen games.

CHMIDT and Doolan were Py tied for the honor of mak- ing the most hits, each having 30, while Schmidt scored the most runs,27. Bell, of Navy, was the second high run maker with 26. Hottell, Navy, carried off the ‘Babe Ruth’’ title with four hom- ers. Dooland, McCormick, Griffin and Clayton registered two each. Griffin, Navy, and Allen, Public Buildings, were generally conceded to have the best throwing arms in the circuit. Both made several sen- sational heaves during the cam- paign. The season was productive of two triple plays. Shipping Board and Navy turned the trick and in each case the Public Parks nine was the victim. Hamilton, who pitches for Pub- lic Parks, has fanned 129 batters in 12 games, which may be a réc- ord for league games here. He was credited with a one-hit game.

By HENRY LITCHFIELD WEST. N unprecedented number of A Washington golfers will com- pete in the national amateur championship to be played on the Baltusrol course, near Newark, N. J., during the week of September 13. No less than six entries have been accepted, as follows: A. L. Houghton, Manor. Page Hufty, Congressional. : Roland R. Mackenzie, Columbia. S. M. Newton, Burning Tree. Miller B. Stevinson, Columbia. George J. Voigt, Bannockburn. Mackenzie was eligible by reason of qualification in previous national amateur events and this column predicted more than a week ago that Houghton, Stevinson and Voigt would be allowed to play. The names not previously _antici- pated include Hufty and Newton, both of whom are well-known play- ers here, and it will be remembered ihat Hufty won the North and South amateur championship at Pinehurst last spring. J. DUNPHY, who was E. automatically placed , on ® the eligible list through nrevious qualification, and who was expected to participate im the Baltusrol event, apparently decided not to send his entry. tember 13, the first day of the quali- fying round, are as follows: Edward 8S.

Several times within the last year or two there have been intimations that a course of this character would be established here, but the project never materialized. Now, however, it seems certain that the scheme will be carried into effect. The property under consideration can be transformed into a golf course with the minimum of outlay Arthur B.

re-_, FAIR PRIGE 1S TEST TNSALE OF HOMES, SINS H.6. MADDUX Give People What They Want, Head of Real Estate Firm Declares. LUZON HEIGHTS HOUSES ARE CITED AS EXAMPLES es Operations in Battery Park, Garrett Park and Edge- moor yr Explained. The sale of homes, like any other commodity, is based on one simple fact, according to Maj. H. C. Mad- dux, president of Maddux, Marshall, Moss & Mallory, the firm which hag recently taken over the exclusive sale of the Solomon~-built group of homes on Luzon Heights, just off Sixteenth street at Van Buren. This one fact, according to Maj. Maddux, is to give the people what they want at a fair price. ‘We have observed this rule in all our operations,” the major said yesterday. ‘‘When we first started Battery Park, our most outstand- ing community, we began with the idea of giving the public fine homes in a strictly restricted neighbor- hood, with suburban atmosphere and city facilities, at a moderate price. The success of this plan at Battery Park is history and over a hundred fine homes, located on what used to be farm land, shows that the public appreciaeed our ef- forts. Explains Garrett Park. “When we took over Garrett Park, it was with the idea of giv- ing the man of moderate means all that he wanted without expecting him to pay too much, either at the start or for the property in ques- tion. To this end we built beauti- ful little bungalows on fine lots, with a radio in the home and a car in the garage if the buyer wanted it, and sold such homes on one down payment, about equal to that asked for a house alone elsewhere. The success of that idea can be learned any time by a visit to Gar- rett Park, which is one of the most beautiful suburbs around Washing- ton. “Edgemoor offered a new prob- lem, but here we found that we == ~- ““Indwiduality in Furniture at DeMoll’s” We Cordially Invite Our Friends and the Public To go through home - just the beautiful, new completed by Madduz, Marshall, Moss and Mallory, Van Buren Street, near the corner of Sixteenth, and which we had the pleasure of furmshing for them. DeMoll Piano and Furniture Co. Twelfth and G Streets THE WASHINGTON POST: with exactly what he wanted, at a fair price, and at the samé time of- fer the man of more moderate means a wonderful home in a beau- tiful neighborhood, strictly restrict- ed, at a price he could afford to pay. Drive through ._Edgemoor any day and see the result, and we can still give a prospective buyer anything from a small lot and home to an es- tate and domicile worthy the occu- pancy of a millionaire in that sec- tion. “We are still handling Washing- ton property, although we try to specialize. in homes that are far enough from the center of the city to furnish the advantages of sub- urban lifé and at the same time re- tain all city advantages. When we obtained the opportunity to take over the exclusive sales of the group of Solomon-built homes on Luzon Heights, we made a careful investi- gation, found that they offered the tranquillity of the suburbs without losing any city facilities for comfort, and when told that they would be sold for $2,000 less than the price at which our experts appraised them, we decided to go ahead. I think that any one who examines these houses from the standpoint of loca- tion, construction and general fa- cilities, will agree that they should conform to our idea of giving the public what it wants at a fair price.’ LUZON HEIGHTS EXHIBIT INSPECTED BY CROWDS Throngs Delay Closing Time of Model House of Group Off Sixteenth Street. GUARANTEED BY BUILDER Crowds continue to visit the Mad- dux, Marshall, Moss & Mallory ex- hibit house of the group of eighteen Solomon-built homes at Luzon Heights, just off Sixteenth street at Van Buren street, recently taken over for sale by the four M’s, ac- cording to J. R. Crutchfield, sales manager. ‘Hundreds of people already have seen these homes,’’ said Mr. Crutchfield yesterday, “and we are compelled to keep open until 10:30 o’clock or later every night, al- though the homes are advertised as being open only until 9 o’clock. The sample home, furnished by the O. J. de Moll Co., attention, and we are beginning to believe that our aim, which is to present the most completely fur- nished home ever offered to the public, has been realized. , *‘We have tentative contracts for saveral homes and expect them to go much more rapidly than the regular run of homes in this price class. Our belief is based on the fact that, weeks before we ever contemplated taking over the ex- clusive sale of this group, we were asked by Mr. Solomon, the builder, to appraise them. We fixed the value at that time at $21,500 and were agreeably surprised when Mr. Solomon informed us that he would be able to sell them for $2,000 less than that amount. ‘We did not expect to close the sale of any of these homes the first week offered. The reason is ob- vious. When a man or woman de- cides to purchase a home this close to the $20,000 price class, he or she naturally shops around for a few days, examining the different types of homes offered at this price before purchasing.

Sunday, August 22, 1926, SENATOR CAPPER’S REPORT. Senator Capper brought to the Presi- dent a report of unusual prosperity among the farmers of Kansas and other Western s, and wheat selling, on the average, at about $1.20 a bushel. He reports that the farmers want a duty on hides and an in- crease in the duty on wheat and beef. He insists that since the démand in Europe for American agricultural prod- ucts is declining, American farmers must depend more and more upon the domestic market. The Kansas senator adds: “There is. no great demand for a lower tariff on anv. specific manufactured goods.” This is an indication that.the threat- ened uprising among some of the farm- ers and growers of the middle West has subsided, as was predicted. The senator states that the: farmers are protection- ists, and that the only practical way in which the farmers can reap the full bene- fits of protection is to impose a tariff on farm commodities now on the free list and raise the tariff on the others. Consistency will compel the Westerr:- ers to increase the tariff on manufac- tured goods whenever any American i1- | dustry is suffering from excessive for- eign competition in the American mar- ket. To increase the duties on farm products and lower them on manufac- tured goods would be ruinous to the farmer’s best market in the cities and in- dustrial centers. Adequate protection to all American industry, whether agricultural or manu- facturing, is the only road to American prosperity. Senator Capper’s report as to the attitude of the West on this ques- tion is most reassuring. ON THE SCENT OF THE ONION. The United: States tariff commission has decided that the national interest calls. for an investigation of the onion. Why the commission has concentrated its attention upon the onion. has not been disclosed, but this. mystery is not any more mystifying than other tendencies of that elusive excrescence upon the gov- ernmental body. The commission must demonstrate its usefulness somehow if it is not to be abolished, and the instinct of self-preservation, which is developed to a superlative degree in government commissions, drives it into abstruse and baffling researches in the hope of pro- ducing masses of statistics that will ap- pall its enemies and befuddle Congress and the public. In selecting the onion for investigation the tariff commission reveals its uncanny cunning. The field of investigation is without limits. Whether in its archeo- logical, dietetic, geographical and cul- tural aspects or in its character as an irritant of international commercial re- | Jations, the onion can easily keep the ex- | perts of the tariff commission busy as long as political exigencies require. No one knows the ancestry, origin, or primi- tive habits of the onion; and of course no one has adequately studied the propensi- ties and ultimate destiny of this mysteri- ous plant. explored and explained. The dispersion of the onion throughout the inhabited world, with varying characteristics and unaccountable eccentricities in different climates, constitutes an inviting field for acientific research—and the tariff com- mission is nothing if not scientific and vesearchful. The fact that bureaus and divisions of commission Its connection with the re- ligious rites of the ancients remains to be the Department of Agriculture, the De- partment of Commerce, the Department of the Interior, the Interstate Commerce Commission, the National Academy of sa.c0 | Sciences, the National Research Council, the Smithsonian institution and other governmental agencies are engaged in researches and assembling data on the onion should neither discourage the tariff nor encourage jealousy among the agencies concerned. All that can be learned of the onion will come useful to these agencies. Nothing that pertains to the onion is alien to human- ity. There is glory enough for all in this onionology campaign. EUROPEAN MILITARISM. Next month the powers that control the league of nations will be face to face with the problem of revising the cove- nant in such manner as to enable them to retain their control, while at the same time inducing other nations to remain in the league, with inferior rights. secure admission of Germany into the league with a permanent seat in the league council, to the exclusion of all other nations that aspire to an cqual | place with the great powers. Germany, it is reported, will not risk another humiliating rebuff by sending delegates to Genéva, but will await. as- surances that the way is paved for her admission into the league and its council. Confidential exchanges have been go- ing on between France, Spain, Italy and Great Britain in an effort to placate Spain and to induce Signor Mussolini to refrain from throwing a monkey- wrench into the league by inciting Spain to demand a permanent seat in the coun- cil. Enough information has leaked out to show that Great Britain and France have made substantial inducements to Mussolini to “be good.”’ France has also taken up the cudgels in behalf of Spain in regard to the Tangier question, which is palpably a move to procure from Spain an equivalent concession, presumably abandonment of her insistence upon a place in the league council. France’s latest policy has in view the strengthening of the league of nations and the molding of its council into the most powerful political agency ever known. The power to direct the affairs of Europe and.to dictate the foreign policy of all European nations is the ob- jective. Apparently, France hopes, by cooperation among a small group of great powers, to set up an authority which would always act in harmony with French aims and which would never be in a position to act in defiance of a French veto. As France warms toward the league as a means of obtaining political direc- tion of Europe, British policy seems to become lukewarm. Foreign Minister Chamberlain is following the traditional British policy of playing one ‘European power against the other. He is also keenly alive to the necessity of cooperat- ing with the United States. Britain’s far-flung imperial and naval interests call for a broader view than France is required to take. Whenever the interests of Britain tend to clash with the scheme for control of Europe through the league of nations it is noticeable that Britain discovers obstacles to the promo- tion of France’s plans. British and French policies on the | question of limitation of armaments are in conflict. Britain and the United States, on the other hand, are acting in harmony on that question. The split in the preliminary conference at Geneva has grown so wide that it can not be bridged. France hoped to induce the nations to accept the league of nations aS a supervisor and inspector of national armaments, to spy out secret armaments, count every nation’s ships, soldiers, guns, and airplanes, and compel them to con- form to an armament program approved by the league. British and American delegates refused to agree to that propo- sition. In his Plattsburg speech last Secretary Kellogg thoroughly exposed the hypocrisy of the European govern- ments that pretend to be working for reduction of armaments, while actually setting up barriers against any reduc- tion whatever. Although Mr. Kellogg’s speech was’ primarily intended to set forth American policy, in reality it is an exposure of the militarism of. Europe which attempts to disguise itself in high- sounding phrases taken’ from the cove- nant’ of the league of nations. Euro- pean nations, including France, Poland, Italy, Spain, Jugoslavia, Roumania, and Czechoslovakia, dc not intend ‘to reduce their armaments,‘ but on the contrary are intending to increase their military t The | teur. problem is complicated by the plan to | ‘‘Adonais,” version of “John Gilpin Castle,” involved Maginn in a duel. characterized that story. as being “in-con- ception the most impertinent, in execu- our misfortunes to read ;” peer to whose wife the book was dedi- cated if. he could not borrow a horsewhip week | strength; and in the case of France and | Italy, naval strength is to be increased also.

The erection of a handsome granite | Celtic cross in the old churchyard of | Walton-on-Thames, England, as a me- | morial to Dr. William Maginn, who was | interred there 84 years ago, serves to re- | call the literary performances of one of | the wittiest, most accomplished, and most | | versatile writers of histime. Maginn, born | at Cork and educated at Trinity college, | Dublin, at first assisted his father in con-— ducting an academy in his native city, | but, at an early stage of his career, he | vielded to the lure of the “lights of Lon- | don,” and took up his abode in the Eng- lish metropolis as a professional littera- | His ‘‘Odoherty Papers, and verse, contributed to Blackwood’s Magazine, made him famous, and in 1830, when Fraser’s Magazine was established. 99 he became one of the chief literary sup- , porters of the new publication, and prob- | ably did more to make it popular than His | did either Thackeray or Carlyle. “Gallery of Literary Characters,’ with illustrations by Maclise, became especi- ally celebrated. Maginn was a keen critic, but, as was too common in that age, he often allowed in prose | his political partisanship or his personal feelings to interfere with his judgment. | Thus, being a dyed-in-the-wool Tory, he | had nothing but contempt for the liberal- | izing tendency of the English poetry of | the early nineteenth century, and, in all the moods and tenses, denounced Shelley, Keats, Byron, and Campbell as types of the so-called Cockney school. To him Shelley’s exquisite lament on the death of Keats, is mere trash, and Byron’s ““Mazeppa” is nothing but a new "! To Coleridge’s | “Christabel” he was equally uncompli- mentary. One particularly outrageous piece of criticism, that on the novel “Berkeley He tion about the stupidest it has ever been he excoriated its “horribly vulgar and ungrammatical writing ;” he complained of its “looseness and dirt” and of its “bestialities towards the ladies of England;” and he asked the to avenge the insult. Stung by these taunts, the author, the Hon. Grantley Berkeley, committed a ferocious assault on Fraser, the publisher ; whereupon Ma- | ginn wrote to Berkeley and told him that he, not Fraser, was responsible for the criticism. A hostile meeting was the result. Luckily, each combatant was a bad marksman. Shots were exchanged’| three times, and Maginn was slightly | wounded, and so the affair ended. | Unfortunately, Maginn’s life became very irregular. He drank heavily and was often in jail for debt. There is scarcely a doubt that he was the original of Thackeray’s “Captain Shandon.” Man- gan alludes to his intemrerance thus: the pit abysmal, The gulf and grave of Maginn and Burns: and, in a genial elegy, Lockhart thus summarizes his fall: Light for long was his heart, breeches were thin. Else his acting for certain was equal to Quin; But at last he was beat. of the bin—- All the same to the doctor from claret to gin-— Which led swiftly to jail and consumptio1 therein. Maginn had wit, humor, and even genius; but he perverted his parts, and his career would find an appropriate place among the ‘‘Calamities of Authors.” To what was best in him the monument at though his and sought help | Walton-on-Thames has been erected. UNITED STATES LINES CHANGES. The Shipping Board appears to have won out again. It is announced that Thomas H. Rosbottom, general manager of the United States Lines, has decided to resume his duties with the War Depari- ment and that he will return to Panama as the manager of the Panama Railroad Steamship Co. It has been known for the last year. that the relations between the manager | of the United-States’ Lines and the mem- bers of the Shipping Board have been - far from cordial The manager has been frequently criticized for his alleged in- difference towarc: building up business for the lines, ‘and especially for his failure ’ _¥e ale in Nothing Like This For U.

But Mr. Rosbottcm was never ~egarded as directly re#ponsi- ble either to the Shipping Board or to the Emergency Fleet Corporation, having been “loaned” by the War Department. It may be said in his behalf, in response to the charge that practically two-thirds | of the stewards’ forces on the American | vessels are nationals of Great Britain and Germany, that it is difficult, almost im- possible, to induce Americans to accept places the duties of which are regarded many requests from officials and mem- bers of Congress, American schoolboys were temporarily employed as stewards and deck boys, they proved so incompe- tent and so insolent that the practice was abandoned and foreigners were given their places.

Several far-seeing Republicans are try- ing to avoid the issue by asking Vare | and Smith to retire from the senatorial | eral support to these candidates, >n + | a | PP oe 8 yee | President may well cry “Hold! Enough!” race, so that the scandal caused by the excessive use of money in their primary | ‘campaigns will not follow the Republican party into the national campaign in 1928. But Vare and Smith see no reason why they should withdraw. Whether too much money was spent or not, they were duly nominated, and it is conceded that they will probably be elected. The rank and file of the Republican party in Illinois and Pennsylvania do not seem to be wor- ried over the situation. the opposition party of equal willingness to spend money if it could get it.to spend, and indignantly deny that money was used corruptly. These Republicans have made no sign that they are dissatisfied with Vare or Smith: On the contrary, they stand ready to. elect these gentlemen. The Republicans ‘of Ilinois* suggest that George Brennan should withdraw , as the Democratic nominee for the Sen- ate if Smith is asked to withdraw, be- cause Brennan also received the benefit of a financial contribution from Samuel [Insull.

But since Smith will prob- with Brennan out of the the Senate Democrats, are the parties who must face the issue. How many Republicans in the Senate will vote to admit Vare and Smith?

To the Editor of The Post-——sir: A great part of the knowledge a visitor carries away about Washing- ton is gleaned from talks given by local guides. Into the hands of guides therefore is placed the im- portant task of rightly presenting to the visitor authentic facts about our National Capital. When an American is being shown Federal grounds and buildings he is looking sover the property of which he is part owner. Thousands of visitors come to Washington—the national shrine. They expect to be thrilled. They want to carry away happy mem- ories. On the guides therefore is ‘placed the additional burden of making an American's visit to the National Capital memorable. What a part the right kind of a guide in the right place plays in the happy memories of a visit to the Nation's Capital!

Morally, there is better justifica- tion for basing representation upon votes, as is done in some Euro- pean countries, than upon popula- tion. The citizen with insufficient interest in being represented in Congress to cast a vote has no real grievance if he is not represented. When we get to the technical side of this question. there has been no legal apportionment in years, for the reason that the Con- stitution contains a mandatory clause requiring Congress in mak- ing an apportionment to reduce the representation of States in wWhich the electorate has been reduced, and in proportion thereto. Notori- ously this has been done in a num- ber of States, but all apportion- ments have ignored this piain pro- vision of the Cgnstitution.

Thereafter, it was passed by the Senate and signed by the President. Immediately I conferred with the auditor of the District as to the appropriation therefor and he placed it in the sec- ond deficiency appropriation bill for the District of Columbia. The principal labor of an attor- ney handling such a case is to con- vinee the men having the matter in charge of the merits of the Dill. That is done sometimes by reaching one or a dozen members of the House and explaining to them the subject matter, the legal rights of the parties interested. The same process applies. to the members of the Senate and what both members of the House and the Senate need to know about a measure is the full history and merits of the claim, honestly, truthfully and justly stated and when those facts are es- tablished the bill stands and passes on its merits. The facts must be presented to the gentlemen in the only to a small minority of citizens. | is in the background of the delay | in making a reapportionment.

Moul- ton, and His Action in Charg- ing a Fee of One-third of the Amount Collected Defended by Him. To the Editor of The Post—-Sir: There have recently appeared in cer- ment by the retired policemen and firemen of the District of Columbia collect for them their retire- of $68.425.06, and for the About the 165th of Sep- tember, 1923, a group of retired police and firemen came to my of- fice and sought to secure my serv- ices to prosecute. their claim for They ex- Twhat I did in this case.

That is exactly I presented it to such men with such fairness and clearness as to the merits and integrity of the bill that they saw the justice thereof and passed the measure. The services set forth in thie brief statement covered a period of near- ly three years and consumed days and: weeks of labor, and without such labor and effort these people would never have received one dol- lar of this fund. Some lawyer had to be employed to secure the’ pass- age of this bill and to convince Con- gress that an old claim, standing for more than twelve years and bar- red by the statute of limitations three or four times over and not a legal claim in the beginning but a mere moral obligation, should be paid, and that result I accomplished. It is immaterial to the client in the case of a contingent fee like that involved in this case as to what amount of labor, great or small, an attorney may perform. He is enti- tled to his compensation according to the. terms or the reement, though it took but three months to accomplish the result- or nearly three years as in this case. I notice in the paper that Repre- ‘sentative Zihlman, a very fine gen- tleman, has said that in the last ses- sion of Congress he was not ap- proached in relation to the bill and it passed on its merits. I think both of those statements are correct, yt I am sure Mr. Zihlman would t wish you to forget that he was but one of 435 members of the House House, passed by the House and It was there res A CITY FOUR-SQUARE. ll The city the heart of the’ nation should be Is based on.a Christian philoso- p y; Its purpose is human, not pecuni- ary; It’s a city four-square. .

We Man's laws should conform with God’s holy will, Injustice will never force men to **be still’’; They'll always rebel with just rea- son until There’s a city four-square.

There’s no slum district, tenement, sorrow nor shame, East, west, north and south are all built the same, On a goodly philosophy, quite with- out blame, In a city four-square. In a vision, on Patmos, John saw it, we're told, As God’s plans for the nations began to unfold; The construction revealed was transparent gold In that city four-square. as The transparent gold in that city four-square Was the prayers of the builders who wrought with care That travelers should yearn while journeying there For a nation four-square. Then John saw a river and wonder- ful tree Whose leaves ‘‘for the healing of nations”’ shall be. Can the leaves be the people whose names you would see person shall ‘be deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law,’’ and that ‘‘no State shall deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law,’’ the former, being applicable to the United States by judicial construction and, the lat- ter being applicable to the States by both judicial construction and the wording of the amendment, most certainly imply that no per- son shall be deprived of his life, liberty or propetry, without due process of law. The bulwark behind which the adversaries of Federal antilynch- ing legislation entrench themselves is that the remedy for lynching is a State and not a Federal matter. In support of their contention they quote the tenth amendment, which is: “‘The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitu- tion, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States, respectively, or to the people.” Admittedly, while the power for- bidding lynching has not been ex- pressly delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor ex- pressly prohibited by it to the States, it can not be authoritatively maintained that Congress has not the “implied power’’ to prohibit the lynching of citizens of the United States, regardless of their citizenship of the State wherein they reside. Moreover, some of the States have enacted antilynching laws, for the protection of citizens of those States, which have not been declared to be in violation of the State constitutions; therefore, the United States has a constitutional right to enact a Federal antilynch- ing law, for the protection of citi- zens of the United States, which ought not to be declared in viola- tion of the “implied power” of Congress under the Federal Con- stitution. By a parity of reason- ing, if State antilynching legisla- tion, applicable to citizens of the State, is constitutional, most as- suredly Federal antilynching legis- lation, applicable to citizens of the United States, ought to be consti- tutional, Article I, section 8, clause 18 of the Constitution provides: ‘‘The Congress shall have power to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execu- tion the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Consti- tution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereor.’’ The Supreme Court has also held, that the above provisions confers on Congress both the expressed and the implied power to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carry- ing into execution the foregoing powers; that is, the powers delegat- ed to Congress in Article I, section 8, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any de- partment or officer thereof. The last important historical exercise by Congress of its “‘implied power,’’ which was upheld by the Supreme Court, was the passage of the draft law to raise an army that success- fully prosecuted humanity’s super war. The fourteenth amendment pro- vides that, “‘All persons born or nat- uralized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they re- side.”’ It is as visible ag a full moon on a cloudless night that, primarily, & person who meets the above re- quirements is a citizen of the Unit- ed States and, secondarily, a citizen of the State wherein he resides. Thus & person owes his allegiance pri- marily to the United States and sec- ondarily to the State. In return for his allegiance the United States primarily owes the citizen of the United States pro- tection against being deprived of his life, liberty or property with- out due process of law, either by a State, a mob, or any other instru- mentality or agency. The above being indisputable, the Federal.government has as much right, if not more, to protect a citizen of the United States against being lynched in the United States as it has to demand an in- demnity from a foreign country in which a citizen of the United States is the victim of a mob, irrespective of the victim’s citizenship of one of the several States of the Union. Notwithstanding the preceding, the Federal government has an in- herent right to protect the lives of its citizens from either domestic or foreign mob violence, under the inviolate right of “governmental self-defense,’’ in contradistinction to the inviolate right of “personal self-defense.”’ Therefore, in my judgment, Fed-. eral antilynching legislation is con- stitutional, under the “implied power” and the “inherent right” of { 0 nw, $7 rooms, $¢ weeklies ‘$16.80 0° and eo, nn with toilet, shower and lavatory, $10; 2 in room, 50% more.

They offered me an amount equal ‘to 50 per cent if I would take the case on a contingent fee. I took the matter under advisement and conferred with James F. Oyster, then commissioner of the- District, who after going over the matter with me assured me that it Was a just claim, though not a Jegal liability, but simply a moral obligation; that it should be paid by the District, and he urged me to take the case, as all efforts of the commissioners and others in the past ten or twelve years had failed to obtain any results. After other investigations I again met in my office with the re- tired police and firemen and told them that I had concluded to ac- cept their employment, but that I would not receive the fee of 50 per cent, but would charge them. an amount equal to one-third of the amount recovered. If I recovered nothing they would owe me pnoth- ing and I would lose my time, labor and expense. They very promptly agreed to those terms and I imme- diately prepared an _ irrevocable power of attorney and also a fee agreement for the amount stipu- lated, making it a lien on any check, draft or other instrument that might be issued in settlement of their respective claims. There- after, I prepared a bill and had it presented in the United States Sen- ate in the first session of the Sixty- eighth Congress, but it was so late in the session that little headway could be made with it. In the sec- ond session of the Sixty-eighth:Con- gress I took the matter up with a of Representatives and 96 members of the Senate, all of whom had a voice in the passage of this meas- ure. In the Sixty-eighth Congress Mr. Zihlman' was not the chairman of the District committee. I saw him in relation to the measure, found from him that he had at one time presented a bill covering the same matter, and was fully in fa- vor of the bill that I presented. I, therefore, saw no need of discussing it with him again. The amount of my charge for pro- fessional services in this case is the minimum charge that lawyers make in contingent fee cases, and in the case of the retired pay of these men that had been standing for ten or twelve yaars and was looked upon as an absolutely dead claim, it was certainly a very reasonable fee. According to my thinking every person who received their money, the product of my labor in the col- lection of this debt, should be most prompt in their call at my office to settle and adjust my fees.

This amusing incident might be taken as a classic of that propensity. During the wet-dry hearing be- fore the Senate subcommittee, Gen. Andrews, prohibition chief, testified that for the year ended June 30, Guide work is not the easiest work in the world. It necessitates constant walking and wearisome talking. It necessitates adapting oneself to every type and kind of in- dividual. Real guides, like real doctors, are born, not made. It is the born gyide only who can continue to be interesting telling the same story over and over again, day after day. A- real guide loves human beings. '* People who like and can “handle the public’’ migrate naturally into this business. People on vacations are free with their money. They are millionaires fora day and must be treated ac- cordingly. They are not averse, generally, to fipping. Salaried guides find the voluntary offerings substantial and generally manage to accept them if offered at the right time and place. It is because of this loose ‘‘glad-sock’’ money the public is just dying to spend dur- ing its moments of play, that makes a livelihood obtainable by guides at places where there is no set fee. Enough people will voluntarily tip -eviough anywhere for good guide service to make a salary for guides unnecessary. But the public must not forget when, during the height of the tourist season, they see the guides doing what appears to be an enormous business, that these same guides are compelled then to lay aside part of their gleanings to tide them over the slack winter months when the earnings are very meager. The occupation of guide has never been regarded in America as a calling, as it has in Europe. With the advent of the automo- bile, bringing in its course a larger traveling public, is it not now in or- der for American cities and com- munities having show. places to consider the question of the proper licensing, examining, selecting, edu- eating and disciplining of their corps of guides?

But the Constitution, unless, by implica- tion, does not inhibit a mob from depriving a person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law: ‘The construction placed upon the fifth and the fourteenth amend- ments by the Supreme Court is con- clusive, until it is reversed by that august tribunal, the greatest in this country, if not the greatest in th¢ world. Nevertheless, a very inter- esting question arises, which is: “What constitutional guaranty was there against a person being de- prived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law, by al State, from 1787, when the fifth amendment, was adopted, to 1868, when the fourteenth amendment *s adonted. a period of 81 years.

During the past week among their guests have been Mr. and Mrs. Alfred J. Brosseau, of Greenwich, Conn., and Julius Rosenwald, the philanthropist, of Chicago.

- = —— By VYLLA POE WILSON. r,~* HE American woman, with a . sense of humor, is laughing up her sleeve of her chic gown at the expressed fears of Maurice de Waleff, “journalist of opinions,” who is so concerned over the possi- bility of French couturieres distort- ing their fashion instincts to cater to American tastes. The well formed American wom- an knows, as the French couturieres know, that she is the very best dressed lady in Paris or in any other fashion center: In fact, instead of distorting the French taste and general European style mode from the over fussy to the chic tailored effect. - In reality it was the American : woman who espoused the plain chiffon gowns so eagerly that the financial problem in the ateliers of French modistes became a serious one until they evolved the idea of charging for line and for color and glorifying the underslip also in or-| der to make the cost of workman- ship as much as that of the elabo- rately trimmed and embellished gowns of former years. We also laugh at the cencern of the learned gentlemen that the in- fluence of the mighty dollar has such a disastrous effect on French dress making art. He probably means that the lack of it is what is troubling the Parisian molders of vogues as American women become more and more contented with “‘made in America” fashions. Sport of Literary Critics. Incidentally it may be well to re- member right here that commenta- ries on women’s clothes-and their eccentricities has long been the sport of the literary critic. In fact, it has formed part of their most in- teresting work. What, for instance, would the famous diary of Pepys be without his faithful record of the clothes and foibles of the wom- en of his day? In this very year Mark Sullivan has in his. story, “Our Times,”’ spent much time suc- cessfully, we must admit. on the clothes worn by the women of this century. The essential factors by which most American women gauge their clothes selections are beauty and modernity, which two combined make style, but not the kind bought by the yard in the haphazard style of the job lot. This does not mean, of course, that the well-dressed woman does not patronize’ the ready-to-wear shops. She does, but in the up-to-date ones, and even the moderate-priced ones, it is possible to get clothes with individual notes or with. possibilities of individual touches which can be added at the shop by specialists'in individualism. Which personages are now essen- tlal parts of the working force of many of the stores, or by =the woman herself or her maid. _ This is an independent age, and While we frankly cull our clothes idea from those of past ages, we re- Vamp and remake and create them to such an extent that modernity is the outstanding atmosphere. Study Classic Woman. In the first place, we have looked With critical and partly approving eves on woman. Discarding the old confin- ing, hampering corsets. we compromised between the ancient and the modern and evolved the perfect rival of. nature, the body molder of luxurious brocade satin, which gently holds the curves of the natural classic ‘figure into Place without bulges; without constraining, and keeps the curved line of beauty with the. straight line of modernity. Of course there are legions of women and girls who wear abso- lutely no confining aids to their fig- ures at all, some successfully, but many unsuccessfully. In fact. the shops report that women who have followed this rule for years have taken so Kindly to the modern, up- to-date ideas of molding and sup- porting the figure that they claim they not only haye achieved extra grace but comfort in following the new mode. Iivery once in a while we hear the rumbling threats of small waists and enormous busts of the early century styles, but the women of this era read these things with interest and perhaps once in awhile choose a gown which is marked ultra up to date along this line, but cling for most of the time, and cer- tainly definitely, to the graceful fig- ure, which is not a phase of style at all, really, but the evolution of the search for beauty and comfort which has been the real incentive of sartorial progress during the last century, at least, and certainly will be in the next. Want Comfort and Beauty. The wiseacres who claim that women will cast aside their skirts in favor of trousers in the next century can rest assured that wom- en have lived and learned that comfort and beauty ‘must go hand in hand. Therefore, if they dis- card their skirts it will be in favor of beauty and comfort and there is really nothing alarming,in the thought. The women who are. taking thought for the fall in regard to clothes and have taken the trouble to find out just what colors will lead the procession of fashion will find that the leading shades are a wine red and a blurred purplish blue and the once so popular Hun- ter’s green, under a modern guise. Of course, the modern manufac- turers have to be congratulated on , the triumphs of their color cards. Despite the struggles against the ~ gaudy taste of some American women, our American manufactur- ers have developed some wonder- ful colors strikingly beautiful and yet not garish. We must remember, fense, when we hear the criticism ,that American women like brilliant colors, that if we do, which is very much to be doubted, we are a na- tion of action and that we like things alive whether it be color or our recreation. ’ Contradiction in Colors. It is a remarkable contradiction in feminine taste when it is noted that the clothes designed for bath- fing and swimming in the warm sum- mer waters reflect the colors of those to be worn for the winter sports in snow and icc. / A glimpe at the bathing suits at the fashionable beaches here and the figure of the classic | | MLLE.

T is said that college-bred house- | breakers—those with the degree of doctor of philosophy who have majored in psychology—al- ways lay their plans to rob homes within the first two hours after the family retired. To do this the senti- nels of the organization know where the household are, when they are all at home and when the lights are out. The plan is based on the theory that all men sleep deepest during the first two hours after falling asleep. During that two-hour period all the telephone transmitters of the body are off the hooks. The nerves of sight, ‘of hearing, of taste, smell, touch, temperature and pain are all! out of commission. After that, the man submerged in unconsciousness gradually comes nearer the surface. During the last two hours of the eight-hour sleep period the sleeper is closely hooked up with his eyes and other organs of consciousness, and all. kinds of impulses break through easily. That was the old teaching. Johnson and Weigand, working at the Mellon institute, knock that theory all to pieces. During experi- ments with twelve healthy men, in which they made nearly 15,000 ob- servations, they ,.found that men differ greatly in their sleeping be- havior. They put it this way: “The way an individual sleeps is a very definite personal character- istic. Some of our subjects rather consistently rest more during the first half of the night: others as consistently prefer the second half. Still others prefer the first and last quarters of the night, while others prefer the second and third. There was no uniformity in the time required for different men to fall ‘into deep sleep. The house- breakers will have to: revise their plans. . | Johnson and Weigand equipped the beds on which the twelve young men slept so that they could watch every movement of any importance. In just one-half of the 15,000 ob- servations, the length of the, pe- riod of complete rest observed was less than five minutes. In 18 per cent of the observations the length of the period was between five and ten minutes. In one observation the man slept for three hours with- out moving a hand or an arm. In nine the complete rest period was between two and three hours. However, compare this with 7, . By Dr. W. A. EVANS | 177 observations of rest periods of less than five minutes. Certainly. we are not as relaxed during sleep as we had supposed. Here, again, individuality counted. Some men thrash around a good deal. Some are more quiet. As a rule, the restless sleepers were men of poor poise. The poor- est sleeper in this group under ex- periment was a student with a neu- rotic family history. He had dif- ficulty in passing his grades. The second poorest sleeper failed in one of his examinations and did poorly in another. A student who was a good sleeper was also a good, well poised student. One day one of the students drove an automobile from Washington, Pa., to Pitts- burgh. That night he was dog tired and expected to sleep like a log. Instead of that, his average period of complete relaxation was only five minutes as compared with his average of ten minutes on other nights. | The experiments showed that, as a rule, men do better brain work at night than they do just after crawl- ing out of bed However, if they did a few rounds of exercise, played some athletic game or rode horseback just after arising, and then settled down to study: or work, they were highly efficient. ‘ KEEP AWAY FROM.

Ruth Welles, young. pretty and ambitious, Q@pplies for a position as secretary to Peter Barton, a distinguixhed New York lawyer. ‘The fact that Ruth is taking a night school course in law and also her direct business- like manner make an excellent impression on | the lawyer and he engages her at once. Harry | Davis, a young man from Ruth's home town, who is in love with her, is likewise employ of Bartén. Ruth likes Harry. is determined on a successful business career rather than marriage. She is sharing #partment with two sisters, Mathews, who are aleo business girls. Masie Andrews formerly occupied the apartment with the girls, but is now living alone, though Riccardo Martinez. an adventurer, has the key to her new apart ment, Ruth feels sorry for Masie and re- mains her fricnd in spite of these circum. Stances. Ruth finds her job with Bartou im mensely interesting. She meets his mother, who is very patronizing and she learns that his sister wants him to marry a certain little French countess. Then one day Barton com ments on the flowers on Ruth's desk presented by Harry, and Kuth asks Harry not to buy her any more, I is indignant and turns te Hattie for consolation.

They cut for partners; and it was Barton and Ruth against the Mortons. Ruth played an excellent game, and Barton was delighted—and just a little surprised. It had never occurred to him that Ruth could do anything except her office work. And here, why, she was playing bridge according to Hoyle; and, while cards were being shuf- fled, cut and dealt, she talked in- telligently with her friends about new Russian music, a recent high- brow novel, the Independent Art- ists’ exhibition. He laughed to himself. ‘“‘What’s the joke?” asked Elva Morton. “Oh—a joke on myself. just made a discovery!’’ ‘“‘Your deal, partner!’’ In the meantime Hattie prepared an abundant supper, cleared the living-room table, brought in the chafing dish, a tray heaped with Bandwiches, preserves, a_ great pitcher of fruit punch, a coffee per- colator. “Cut help!”’ They ‘*Here!

They seemed to—well— just Hike him; and he liked being liked, for himself, not because of his wealth or social position or fame as a lawyer. ‘“*All ready, boys and girls!” an- nounced Hattie. “Pass your plates!’’; and when just then there was again a ring at the door bell: “Don’t care who it is. We've got enough for eight!’’ Elva had gone to the door, and came back a moment later followed by Martinez and Maisie, the latter looking stunning in green chiffon and the man his usual, dark, suave, handsome self. Ruth’s heart sank. She had to introduce them; had to ask them to stay. Martinez shook hands with Bar- ton a little too egfusively: “tT am very glad to meet you, Ved Beg A moment later, helping Maisie remove her light wrap, he whis- pered in her ear: ‘*We’re in luck! Told you I wanted to meet him, didn’t I?” Maisie gave a curt reply. Her heart was hot with rebellion. For Martinez had treated her very bad- ly of late. Only last week he had demanded that she give him certain jewels which she had obtained from an elderly gentleman with more money than sense-—nat to. mention a wife. Martinez had told her he needed the jewels for some busi- ness deal. But she had refused to give them to him, since she sus- pected that the ‘‘business deal’’ was a certain blonde chorus girl. There had been a scene. He had been brutally outspoken. She, hurt in vanity and jealousy, had not been exactly careful of her language. Then he had struck her. Their advent caused a distinct change in the atmosphere of the little party. Barton did not like them and showed it plainly enough. He was almost rude to Martinez and I’ve out the she invited. did. 97? gambling and Fave a “Vou slowly— a extremely distant with Maisie. Ruth was terribly embarrassed.

A dangerous and, to him, rather ob- vious couple. Did Ruth was? She must know. Or she not have said so defiantly: “I’m fond of her!’’ Why was she fond of her? Well—after all, it was not his business. Ruth was jhis private secretary. Nothing else. When he had called on her, he had done so for business reasons. He ‘vould not call again—for social reascns. But he did several times during the early summer. He always had a perfetly legitimate business ex- cuse for coming, and no excuse at all for staying on. Hattie was always in the room with them after the business which brought him had been attended to. On each occasion Ruth called her in, and if Barton was disappointed, he did not say so; on the contrary, seemed to like her. “Your friend is a remarkably in- telligent girl,’’ he said to Ruth one morning at the office. Ruth agreed heartily, and he listened while for fully five minutes she expatiated. on the subject of Hattie’s cleverness. The next time he was at. the apartment he turned to Hattie and said, half-in jest: ‘“‘Miss Welles has given you a very strong recommendation. Miss Mathews. Any time you want a job, you know where to go. I’ve always room for talent!” ‘“‘Very well!’’ came Hattie’s seri- ous reply, ‘‘I1’l1l remember.” Ruth, listening, felt a. sudden pang. At the time of her resigna- tion from Barton’s employ she had not considered that another woman would be with him all day. Why —in retrospect—how she would have hated that woman! She had even thought at the time of rec- ommending Hattie for her position. And how she would have hated Hattie! Hattie—supplanting her! Hattie—Barton’s business wife! Jealous again! Jealous of Hat- tie! Jealous of his women clients! Jealous of the unknown women of his life outside the office! The situation was unbearable. She must control herself. She set her teeth and toiled on all through the hot summer. She had told Barton that she would like her vacation in September before courts opened. As yet she had not made up her mind where to go-—if to go at all. Then one “day in his office she dropped her notebook. They both stooped for it. Their hands en- countered—suddenly—and, a little, lingered to the touch. When they straightened. UP, béoth were flushed.

But he continued, mechanically. As mechanically, Ruth followed his dictation. But her where. He cared. There was no doubt of it. She flamed with happiness, and began to look back in her mind over the summer—the times he had come to see her. What a little idiot she had been not to realize that he had called on her, not to talk over legal. business—it had never been very important busi- ness—but because. * * * Of course—of course! “That’s all for today, Welles!’’ She returned to her office, walk- ing on air. That night, in bed, she made up her mind. She would marry him. It was no longer a question of making him fall in love with her. He cared for her. Presently he would care for her more and more and more. Yes—she would marry him! She completely absolved him of any desire to enter into an irregu- lar relationship with her. Doubt- less he had had affairs with wom- en; as doubtless never with one dependent on him for her liveli- hood. He was not that type of man; and she knew it not only from her own experience, but also because office gossip would have informed her had he been different. Determined what to do, she went back to the office the following morning. Eve’s old instincts came to her, now that she Knew where she stood. And where she was Zo- ing on life’s road. She knew how in- dispensable she was to him in busi- ness. She would make herself as in- dispensable in his life away from business—his real, his intimate life. She was not the girl fo use more or less direct methods of physical ap- proach, physical appeal to win him. Not that she was narrow or puri- tanical. But, somehow, it was not part of her character makeup. On the other hand, since she had made up her mind to become his wife and since, furthermore, her pride and self-respect were appeased, the pri- vate secretary in her vaniBhed as the woman became more apparent —and ever more feminine. On his side, Barton had been amazed beyond words at the emo- tion which the sudden contact of his hand and hers had aroused in him. He knew that he liked her enor- mously; that it both soothed and stimulated him to be with her—- during as well as after business hours; that he caught himself often making excuses for keeping her in the office, on pretext of work, when the rest of the staff had left and for calling at her home in the evening. Still, this sudden thrill which he had felt at the tofch of her hand had come as a surprise to him—a surprise which was nevertheless a fact. He was too self-honest a man to deny it. Here was something— something in his soul, his heart, his body—which threatened to leap all the snobbish, haughty barriers that society has erected to protect its ewe. 3%... F342 the attraction of woman for man in which there is no class, no caste. Caste? Why should he even think of it? The very word was un-American. And he was an American. And so was she. Of good, solid family, intelligent, well-bred, bravely earning her own living, she was a finer, cleaner girl than most of the young debu- tantes whom he knew. Why—he owned. up to it unhesitatingly—she was in every way a better woman than his sister, his mother. And she understood him better than did his own family; understood his am- bitions, his devotions to his chosen work. If he married her! He thrilled at the thought. Then he pictured his mother’s attitude. His-sister’s, and his heart steadied, chilled a little. He remembered other men who had married beneath their station >. * * “hateful, silly word!’’ he thought, but he must have it out with himself. He enumerated the instances in which such marriages had failed—or had succeeded. The percentage of failure was no great- er than in the case of like and like, old name and old name, fortune and fortune. So—why hesitate Why not tele- phone to Ruth now? ‘“‘May I call on you tonight?”’ And then in the evening: “T love you! Will you marry me?” Again he reconsidered. He was a slow man, slowly watching the facts of life; a man—and this was both his strength and his weakness —apt to chill his hot impulses in the ees ean brook of his common sens a. he decided he would leave town for a few days to think the matter over—--away from Ruth; and he motored the next day to his Long island country place, the beautiful ten acres with its hot houses and.wild gardens and long, low, rambling house facing the blue ocean—'‘‘Seamere,’’ he called it; had spent many happy hours there. But when. he got to Seamere it seemed to have lost its charm. The little Countess Annette de Lorraine was there; his sister Nelda, whose husband had gone on one of his archeological expeditions into the wilds of Africa; his mother, and one or two men: He golfed, swam, danced, played bridge, like an au- tomaton—evry well-bred and _ ter- ribly bored. He strolled in the moonlit’ gardens with Annette de Lorraine. Mechanically he. noted the provocative light in her eyes, the little straight silver frock whic was so becoming to her, the touch of her narrow hand on hisarm. He knew that his sister wanted him to marry Annette and the latter was more than willing; knew, too, that she was very, very lovely, spakkling. yey. domprey..patrician—grom fh it held now a/-« EEE sinall head to her small. feet-—she would make a charming hostess! ing of?” and, perhaps, a good wife and a | “Business!” fond mother, | “Ah-—always But he did not love her.

VAN NESS|WAGES ARE READJUSTED The Glebe, a country house built Inspect |a century and a quarter ago in Ar- ‘lington county, Va., by Gen. John | Peter Van Ness, mayor of Washing- iton from 1830 to 1834., was sold last week by G. W. Constantine, of 1329 Harvard street northwest, to State Senator Frank L. Ball, of Virginia, through the real estate |Office of Ruby Lee Minar, Inc. | Gen. Van Ness is said to have | | begun the construction of the house, which is situated near the Glebe ‘road and south of the new devel- ‘opment of Lee Heights, about the year 1800. He imported brick from England for the Yraain part of the house. Some of the basement walls are 2 feet thick. Many dis- tinguished guests were entertained by Gen. Van Ness at his country place as well-as at his city mansion, which once stood on the present site of the Pan-American building. Caleb Cushing, former Minister ito Spain, and Attorney General in the Pierce administration, acquired the Glebe about 50 years later. He built an octagonal addition which he used as an art gallery. Later the house was purchased by Clark Mills, artist and sculptor, ‘and by him presented to his daugh- | ter as a wedding present. Postmaster James P. Willet was a later purchaser and the estate was owned by him and his heirs until it was purchased eight or nine years ago by Mr. Constantine. The latter thoroughly modernized the house, installing three tiled! baths. new hot water heating SYS- | tem and metal weather stripping. The kitchen is of white enamel with equipment to. match and the re- | mainder of the house has been re- | decorated by Mr. Constantine. The house is surrounded by two acres of ground, part of which is in lawns and terraces. There are 88 old shade trees, some of which undoubtedly date back to the time of the original owner. In general, the building material market showed little change during July, as compared with the preced- ing month, according to the month- ly building survey prepared by 5S. W. Straus & Co. Ae obec steel, common brick and Portland cement remained steady for the country as a whole, while lumber continued weak, but several declines were in- | troduced in the starting materials. Such changes as occurred were mostly downward and as a result the standard national indexes of building material prices will prob- ably show a further slight decline for the month. Variations in prices were cen. | tered largely in a few localities, | particularly in Cincinnati and Kan- sas City. In fact, these two cities had poor markets for most of the materials, the prices of sand, grav- el, crushed stone, common brick and hollow tile falling in the former, and lime, Portland cement, common brick and hollow tile ex- periencing decreases in the latter. Frequently variations in the price of the same commodity were in different directions in different cities. For instance, common brick prices rose at New York, Philadel- phia and Birmingham, but declined at Cincinnati, Kansas City and Cleveland. this Home Today Bedroom and fully tiled bath on first floor; 2 bédrooms and bath on second floor; 6 large rooms, hardwood floors throughout; open fireplace.

As illustrative of this policy Mr. Wickersham cited the in his new Chevy Chase, just on the market. on Morrison street, at Ne- vada avenue, boast of a billiard room, electric refrigeration and rather uncommon con- veniences. The Wickersham organization are interested in Ford City, Muscle Shoals and other out-of-town proj- ects, but they are giving much at- tention to Washington property also, believing that the future of the National Capital is a_ bright one. in placed These | Schedule of Band Concerts Arranged a Kvening band concerts for this week are as follows: Tuesday, Navy band, Arkansas avenue, Thirteenth and Emerson streets northwest; Marine band, Stanton park, Fifth and C streets northeast: Wednes- day, Army band, Sylvan. theater, Monument grounds; Thursday.

Strong protests have been made in the regular army as a result of a circular letter recently sent out by the adjutant general, requesting opinions’as to the advisability of continuing the army music school. The school now acts in an advisory capacity to the War Department in all music matters, and its discon- tinuance would affect adversely the musical organizations of the regu- lar establishment. So positive have been the responses to the circular letter that it is believed that the proposition to discontinue the mu. sic school will be abandoned. Discontinuance of the school would nullify all of the construc- tive work the school has been do- ing for the past five years. There is no available supply of bandsmen from civil life, and to fill the va- cancies in its bands the army is obliged to train its own men.

P.).—The Duch- ess of Sutherland's fancy dress ball was the gayest party of the London season. The King and Queen of Spain were much amused by the bull fight, in which Prince Obolen- sky impersonated the bull and Mich- ael Herbert and a half dozen other young men, were matadors and pic- adors. Constance Talmadge and her hus- band, Capt. Alistair Mackintosh, were dressed as Dutch boys. Lady Lavery was in the costume of a French revolutionary and Lady Cu- nard, who is also an American, wore a magnificent pink and mauve crino- line. Lord Blandford created much merriment by his impersonation of a Lady Channel swimmer covered with medals. Lord Birkenhead was a sinister Capt. Hook and his young daughter, Lady Eleanor Smith, was charming as Peter Pan. Increasing Length Of Evening Gowns London (By A.

———— = eae ea AL OSTRTOS ID IMPAVENENT nF EXMITIN Civil Service Tests Bettered by Applying Them to Pro- ficient Workers. TIME FOR SCORING PAPERS IS REDUCED 85,000 Persons Tried for Postal Service Positions Last Year. How mail distributors helped to improve methods of selecting new postoffice employes is an interest- ing subject. discussed in a recent report by Dr. L. J. O’Rourke, di- rector of personnel research, U. S. civil service commission. It is en- titled: “‘Saving Dollars and Energy by Personnel Research’’ and re-}| counts an investigation in the in-j| terest of the postal service, con- ducted by the research division. The work of mail distributors was considered in the procedure of the division to determine the exact duties of positions under consid- eration; processes involved in their performance, their relative impor- tance, and the.aptitudes and abil- ities reouired to attain proficiency in them. Distributors sort mail which is to go out on trains, and also sort the incoming mail according to the districts of a city. In their work they must memorize complicated distribution schemes involving from 2,000 to 5,900 names and eeparate mail in accordance with them. Acts Automatically. To become proficient they must be able to memorize the schemes, and must be quick and accurate in reading addresses and throwing mail into the proper compartments without the slightest hesitation. The rapid distributor seldom, if ever, looks at the box into which he throws the mail. When he sees the address, his hand moves’ auto- matically toward the proper box, while his eyes focus on the next address. By taking the tests which the re- search division devised for the pur- pose of measuring these abilities, the distributors helped to find what combination of tests would make the best of new employes. and the two tests which are now used by the United States civil service commis- sion in the examination for clerks Alcantara Outing | _ To Last Three Days Complete details of the sixth annual outing of Alcantara cara-. van, No. 12, Order of the Alham- bra, which will be held over La- bor day, will be announced soon. Lewis A. Payne, chairman of the outing committee, and James E. Colliflower, vice chairman, an- nounced yesterday. | Mr. Payne stated that the Mc- Williams orchestra has been signed up for the outing, which will take the 200 members of the organiza- tion and their friends by water to Annapolis, Norfolk, Hampton Roads and Yorktown. The trip will be made on the _ steamer Southland, leaving this city Sep- tember 4 and returning the morn- ing of September 7. Mr. Payne, whose office is in the Colorado building, states that there are a few reservations for the trip still vacant. FIREAX COUNTY FA TOBE HELD SEPT. 16-1 Plans Call for Most Preten- tious Exposition and Show in Association’s History. Lot abel afl THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, AUGUST 22, 1996. MLA TAT MM MMM MM i} With —s The Julius Lansburgh Furniture Co., 909 F St. — ee IiMninnn Annual August Furniture Sale | Deferred Payments TRACK IS BEING GRADED Special to The Washington Post. Fairfax, Va., Aug. 21.—The an-| nual fair of the Fairfax County Fair association will be held on the improved local fair grounds Septem- | ber 15 to 18, inclusive, it was an-'! nounced here today by Clifton’ Laughlin, president. | Preliminary plans call for the most pretentious agricultural expo. sition and horse show in the his- tory of the fair, Mr. Laughlin said. There will be a large display of farm products and unusually ex- tensive exhibits of dairy and farm stock. Arrangements are being made for a big four-day racing program in|! connection with the annual horse} show. Estler M. Palmer, Arlington | county horse fancier, is in charge| of the show. He announces that! the fair grounds track is being re-! graded and improved with a new show ring and enlarged grandstand. Work of smoothing out the topog- raphy of the half-mile’ track has been under wavy for several days under Mr. Palmer's’ supervision. Spectators in the grandstand this vear will be able to watch their favorite entries throughout the course of the races. instead of hav- ing them temporarily lost to view behind hummocks of earth in the far reaches of the track, it was pointed out. . All entries should be sent to Superintendent Palmer, Bar-; croft, Va. Blackiston to Head and carriers in the postoffice were selected. The value of these tests is indi-| cated by statistics. which show that if only 25 per cent of the competi- tors. those who make the highest examination grades, are appointed to these positions the great ma- jority of the new clerks and carriers can develop efficiency above the average of the distributors previous- ly in the service. The figures indicate that 93 per cent of the group selected through the new examination will be more efficient than the average of the em- ployes selected through previous ex- aminations. Workers Give Opinions. Dr. O’Rourke emphasizes’ the great advantage gained when tests which are planned during the de-| velopment of a new examination| may be given to groups of present employes. Statistical study of their test records makes it possible to de- termine which tests make the most accurate distinction among the de- sirable and the undesirable appli- cants. In order to show what tests might be selected for the examination without such a trial of the tests, an experimental study was made. The distributors who took all the differ- ent tests wrote their opinions as to which should be used. Study of their choices showed that they were influenced both by the practical ap- pearance of the different tests and by the difficulty which they had in answering the questions. If a test seemed to resemble their | work, or if they could make a high score on it, naturally it appealed to them as good, but if tests for the new examinations would have been chosen on the basis of this selec- tion, three more would have been included. The commission estimates that the cost of giving these three tests would have been $33,000 each year. The elimination of unneces- sary tests greatly reduces the cost of making, printing, giving and scoring examinations. Time Is Reduced. By developing every’ possible means of simplifying the procedure of examining applicants for this work, Dr. O’Rourke not only has greatly increased the value of the examination, but has also made re- markable reductions in the cost of examining competitors. The new clerk-carrier examination can now be scored and handled in 40 to 50 per cent less time than the exami- nation, which it replaced. Of the many emploves in the classified civil service, more than 300,000 are occupied in the wide- anread activities of the postal serv- ice. During the year ended July 1, 1924, 25,000 competitors were examined for railway postal clerks’ positions and 60,000 for positions as postoffice clerks and city letter ‘carriers. It is estimated that dur- ing the present fiscal year 80,000 will compete for postoffice clerk and city carrier examinations. _ J. E. Hurley ‘Machine and Boiler Works 1219 Ohio Ave. N.W.

a i, a ee WASHINGTON SUNDAY, AUGUST >>) 1926. | SES I ~~ Gat ‘A Gattling Butler’ Palace _, KEATON FILM Footlights and Shadows | OPENS TODAY By JOHN J. DALY ITH only one more Sunday in August it will not be long now W before September rolls round. As the story has it, August was the fellow who ran a German beer parlor in Milwaukee and prohibition was about to go into effect; so he displayed: a sign: September the first will be the last of August. In September things theatrical happen. The National Theater Players now holding forth on the sunny side of E street will fold their tents like the Arabs, and silently steal away. In their place will come the road shows, the first of the lot scheduled two nights after the players depart for other precincts. One of the oldtime theatergoers of the city is fearful now lest the new theatrical season will be utterly ruined because of the Theater Players’ popularity. He says: “Here we have been regaled with successful plays for going on something like 20 weeks at popular prices. When the big boys come along with trainloads of new and old assort- ments at top prices ranging from $2.75 to $3.30 and $4.40, the press agents will have to write some powerful yarns to get the faithful past the box office.” It may beso, Then again, it may be only a false alarm. You never ean tell. Popular plays at popular prices, with a stock company good as the National, is something to remember as long as there is memory. On the other hand, a traveling troupe in the wintertime, with some- ‘thing right off the ice, is always a colored boy said at the races, ‘“You takes vo’ money, and you takes yo’ chance.” National ? s * . HILE September is the regulation starting month for theaters in this man’s ‘town, October is the point where settlement actually begins. e Somehow or other, the spirit of the theater does not revive until the ! | | | | i | } | | ' } ; ‘ welcome divertissement.

The weather has a lot to do with theater going, as young Stephen Augustin the land who has no complaint against the gods who hang out the stars, dust off the moon, and polish up the sun. They were good to him here in the midst of the hottest summer Washington has ever known. Men and women who at this ‘scason usually fight shy of anything surrounded by four walls fell over themselves buying tickets to the National theater even when the mercury was out for new altitude records. Summer stock in Washington has come to be of the regular qgrler With any sort of a break it should go on year in, year out, until there are no more stock actors available; until, in fact. all the troupers have amassed such fortunes as enable them not to work in the good old summertime. now. * * ” . INTER brings with it entirely new problems for the theater# \W What appeals to a man’s fancy when the moon is in juxtaposi- tion with a balmy.summer night's sky and a silvery water top, a river, or a lake, a bay or an ocean, and a girl, a lovelight a gleaming, is alto- gether different from the attack he suffers when there is snow on the ground, and ear muffs at a premium. Back from mountain lakes or the seashore, after heat waves have gone down the gulf stream, not to return until next season, a man wants entertainment somewhat different than he had in the realm where uku- lele strumming and falsetto singing was in order; the summer camp and vacation period harmonies. So any old wheeze that W. C. Fields, or Clark and McCullough, or Ed. Wynn, or any of the funny boys might pull sounds good. tell a lot of old stories round a summer camp. The brand they hand out on fishing trips is coated with mildew. Johnny Dooley and his tribe of comedians might suffer from lack of applause in the summertime. when playing Keith's; but given the same kind of an audience in the winter they'll bring down the house. There is something here to interest the psychologists. Roland Rob- hins, manager of Keith’s, knows that running a theater in the summer- time and doing the same job in the winter are two different occupations, though the work should be the same. You can take a card that starts at 8:15 and have it over at 10:30 in the summer, whereas in winter the same bill will hold an audience until a few minutes past 11. at least. The reason is—applause, or the lack of it. ue af 3 * They usually es tas or other, the fellows and their girls who attend vaude-: ville in the summertime are not as generous to the performers as when they attend theater in wintertime. They are too busily engaged fanning themselves. Certainly they are not holding hands. Usually it is far too hot for that. Nor are they distracted from happenings on stage. No, not that either! In short, they are too apathetic to applaud. So performers fit right in with moods of the moment, make everything short and snappy, go through their performance perfunctorily, and so endeth on schedule time. % ~ % B HESE are merely observations on wintertime and summertime 7 theater. The seasons are as far apart as the poles. The warmth of theater applause comes with the coolth of winter. The languid clapping of hands takes place in the heat of summer. Actors are funny roik. They must have applause. It is the Whip that spurs them on, and on, and on; the lash that makes them leap out of _the harness. When the dear public sits back and challenges the tribe on stage to go to, there is a general all round let-down in the theater; and no one gets the best out of a performance. | With dog days gone, the old spontaneity of applause will assert itself. Under the roof trees again will break reverberations of palm against palm, the staccato sound of the skin an actor loves to hear touched-— in other words, applause; the gas that keeps the theater car going-— on all twos. Daly will tell you; though he is the one man in all | { } { | | } ' } | ' / | } } | } ‘ ' | a meeting with- the real battler, prior to. who, to expose Buster, claims that | the latter is the real fighter and | is already preparing to fight a new contender.

The film feature for the week beginning this afternoon at 3, will be First Na- tional’s release of Edwin Carewe's production of ‘*Pal’s First,’’ adapted from the novel by Francis Perry Elliot and the play by Lee Wilson Dodd with Lloyd Hughes and Do- lores del Rio the featured players. The added attraction to occupy the newly equipped Metropolitan stage will be supplied by Waring’s Penn- sylvanians, under the conductorship of Fred Waring, with Tom Waring, his brother, at the piano, this time with the ensemble augmented toa total of etghteen. ‘ The supplementary attraction will include a comedy subject, a new release of the Metropolitan’s spe- cially assembled World Survey, a musigal program to be rendered by the Metropolitan symphony, under the conductorship of Daniel Bree- skin; a scenic subject and on week- days, Sunday excluded, the pro- gram rendered by the newly organ- ized and highly popular organiza- tion known as the Metropolitan Ramblers. a group of twelve unusu- ally gifted young artists, who offer a program of popular hits adapted from clagsics that is in striking con- trast with the musical offerings ‘of the Metropolitan symphony. : | “Pal’s First’ relates the story of With | grouped | attractions : offering, in- | SINGERS TOP KEITH'S BILL ee | O} ee ATTRACTION | THIS WEEK AT NATIONAL The bill at B. F. Keith’s theater | this week covers an unusually wide 'and attractive range of entertain- ment features. Headed by the har- | monizings of a wonder singing ag- | gregation and the gyrations of an | internationally famed dancer, the performance carries through the widest of variety. The Meistersingers, whose abili- ties to present vocal volume and color mean much to music lovers, return in another ef their special annual engagements. La Torricella, Spain’s noted dan- cer, and her international players, | provide the bill with zest in re- markable manner, Combining the inevitable Castillan flash with a high degree of artistry, La Torri- cella goes commandingly through her dances. Her company includes Ivan Naproy, Jamie Delval and the Nadelles Gypsy Stringed Har- monists. Nat D. Ayer and Margaret Wilson present a delightful program of songs, garnished with humor. Mr. Ayer is a British composer whose product is highly popular on the ‘other side. Mel Klee puts on the burnt cork |} and proceeds to use his monolog as the means of sending his audien- ces to the border line that separates laughter and hysteria. Joe Keno and Rosie Green ap- | pear in “A Hilarious Hodge-Podge’”’. A series of subtle character stud- ies under the head of ‘‘Feminine Types’’ is the offering given by Claudia Coleman. ,; Baby Henderson diminutive dan- cer, returns to astonish with her wee-girl mastery ‘of finesse and technique. Sergt. Franklin and Ruby Royce present “Trifles with Rifles,’’ dis-! playing precision of eye and keen nerve command. The usual; sup- | plementaries round out the bill. the boy. who risked a million to find out who his friends were and when he found out there were just three, an old derelict, a hobo, and e third, «a beautiful southern belle, his sweetheart. The roles of supplementary im- portance are played by a group of distinguished artists led by Alec Francis, George Cooper, Edward “arle, Hamilton Morse, Alice Nich- ols, and Alice Belcher. : Waring's Pennsylvanians will be heard in a program that they have never before offered in the. Capital. Their numbers will be new, some of their latest reeording will be re- peated on the Metropolitan stage and vocal as well as instrumental: novelties will be introduced. There pr-bahly has never been a more popular organization on any stage in Washington than Waring’s Pennsylvanians who have played a total of an unbelievable number of weeks in Washins;ton, always in Crandall houses and this time re- turn probably better than they | have ever been heard before. POKER FACES IS FEATURE AI RIALTO Laura La comes to the Rialto for the week starting today | costarring with Edward Everett |} | Horton, in Universal’s latest, and | | what is said to be one of the best comedy farces of the vear, “Poker | Faces.”’ | The title as well as the story is ‘built around the blank, dumb | poker face of Horton’s who could |hold four aces and the joker in a | poker game without blinking an eye. In the picture Jimmy (Hor- ton) is caught gazing at the circus parade from his office window by his boss, who threatens to fire him. He goes home to lunch and upon entering the house stumbles over a rug which reminds Betty, his wife (Laura La Plante) that they need a hew one. With the loss of his job staring him in the face, ,but not wanting to tell her the sad news, he opposes the idea and after a terrific battle she decides to go back to work and make the money to buy one.

The piece was writ- ten by Horace Annesley Vachel, produced at the Haymarket theater in London during the early war period and staged by Clifford | Brooke who will here assume the | title role. For six months ‘‘Quinneys”’ de- lighted audiences at the Haymarket. Then it toured the provinces. Then | it was imported to New York for a run and again last year it was re-'| vived in London. It is inviting to | know that Clifford | } } ' acted the name piece in New York and will enact that same part for the new week. As a novelty, both in theme and setting, ‘‘Quiniveys’’ promises the treat of the season. In its setting there is that Old Curiosity Shop flavor and in its theme there is that provocative appeal for sympathy that distinguished ‘‘Lightnin’.’’ The scenes are laid in an English an- tique shop. a rather unprofitable | gallery of bric-a-brac to which Old | ; Quinneys, once a celebrated collec- | tor, is so deeply attached that his) affections for all else are subli-! mated. A quaint character, a lov-) able one and the sort that instills pathos in the observer.

This is demonstrated when Ne- vada, deserted by Bill Hall in a flight from a sheriff's posse and left. to die on the desert. is rescued by a young rancher, and at the lat- ter's ranch house meets Ida Blaine. a frontier girl, who is devotedly! loved by the young ranchman, but who finds herself very quickly in love with Nevada, who, rather than violate the kindness of the rancher, sends the girl away.

This organization is one of the liveliest and at the same time one of the most expert in musician- ship on the vaudeville stage and it may be safely said will score as substantial a hit as any similar or- ganization ever heard in Washing- ton. The extra attraction will be Mullen and Francis, James and Anna, respectively, and company in a sketch called ‘“‘My Hero,” by Jerome Schwartz. Mullen and Francis and their associates pre- sent a travesty on hero worship which, in fact, is a three-cornered farce with songs interspersed. Other portions of the bill will embrace Phil Roy and Roy Arthur in an act called “China.” This 4s a juggling act with many o@4 angles and a great deal of comedy. Holden and King another clever team presents “Just a Boob.”’ Mr. Holden is the boob and Miss King is the one who leads him on to victory, such as it is. Another not- able offering will be that of Edna Torrence assisted by her brother Johnny, a violinist, with Joe Cebu at the piano in ‘‘Dance Oddities.” Edna Torrence is a dancer who brings something new to this type of entertainment. The photoplay attraction for the week will be First National's pro- duction of “Puppets,” in which the stellar role is played by Milton Sills and the supporting feminine char- acter of chief tmportance by Ger- trude Olmsted. This is a film play that embodies much that is un- usual, dramatic, forceful and in- teresting. In addition to this fea- ture film there will also be shown the usual house features embracing news reels, short comedies, and attractions of that nature, FEVAFAY TOPS WEEK'S. Bie AT STRAND Beginning today and continuing all week the Strand theater offers a bill of entertainment that should cheer the most weary. The head- lining attraction on the vaudeville bill is Eva Fay, appearing as the “High Priestess of Mysticism,” a marvelous display of mind-reading ability. She is a mystery and baf- fles scientists by her powers. Costarring for second place on the vaudeville bill will be Murray Gordon and Ben Pierce in a song and dance number ‘I Don’t Care,”’ by William K. Wells, and a dazzling, speedy revue “Secrets of 1926” with many delightful specialties pre- sented by Davis and Newhoff with a cast that includes Otto Walker, Ray Kossar, Eileen LaCoure, the Four Troubadours and March and Lind.

Daley, long one of the mainstays of good, clean en- tertainment. There is a long list of talented performers to the cast, which is headed by Mike Sacks, one of the greatest living delineators of Jewish characters. Sacks has long since established his reputation as a character actor of unquestioned ability and was for several years the principal comedian with the Marcus show. As a chief aid in his fun making he has Jack Kenney, an eccentric comic as his chief foil. The supporting cast in- cludes Tom Brisky, as straight man and also a tenor singer of wide range and voice, and Herman Fer- ber, a juvenile, who is also a singer of character songs. At the head of the feminine divi- sion is Etheal Albertini, the beauti- ful Italian prima donna, whose range of classical songs are in Span- ish, French, her own tongue, as well as English. She as well as little Syd Burke have stunning costumes to disport. Inez Marvin, the violinist and a blues singer and tone.

Boo - CHANGES HIS ~ ART IN WEST *, By ADA RAINEY. ;- Glacier Park, Aug. 21 ; WO other artists are painting 4h the mountains’ in Glacier park. Guy Wiggins, who has nttained a reputation as one of the very well known landscape paint- ers is farther within the park at Lake McDermott which is the re- gion of the great mountains and the glaciers. Mr. Wiggins has re- cently entirely changed his style. He has been influenced by the pro- gressive tendencies in art and the West. He has been greatly im- pressed by the stark mountains and the glaciers flowing down their precipitous sides, Instead of his somewhat conserv- ative manner, now his painting ex- presses the*rugged austerity of the Rockies. His canvasses are solid, strongly constructed, vigorous, with a new-found strength. It takes a daring artist that will entirely change his style after he has reached maturity and has made his reputation. But this Mr. Wiggins has done successfully with the re- sult that his painting is on a plane of greater strength: and freedom. There are great rhythms that the mountains have which are deeply impressive that can be obtained only by an artist who is willing to live among them and to go on haz- ardous trails to get the feeling of Space and the power of the canyons, ' Mr. Wiggins goes a two days’ trip in the mountains on horseback* and in a little shack paints and sketches. His canvasses and paints must be carried up on pack horses. Then he returns and from this mate- rial paints and composes his pic- tures. He savs that he does his best work when in his studio in the East he retouches or paints from his sketches and his visualized pic- turés of the scenes that he has lived among all the summer. In this way he gets a feeling that has come from deep reflection, consequently his painting is all the richer and deeper. Mr. Wiggins will have an exhi- bition of his Western paintings in the autumn in New York. The more active and progressive artists are in this way bridging the gulf between the West and the East and opening up a new field of beauty and interest to the East that other- wise would not be known. This is pioneer work than makes for rich- mess and power in art. Not only the artist, but the public is thus the gainer and art becomes the inter. preter of one part of the country to another which is of great value. The man who blazes a new trail in art is quite as much a factor in civilization as the man who blazes a a trail across the mountains for others to follow. This-is fortunate- ly becoming more and more realiz- ed and makes for greater interest in art. Subject matter is undoubt- edly important. It is the way by which the artist expresses his emo- tions. When the subject matter is congenial it is easier for the artist to express his emotions and through his emotions‘awaken others. Styles Contrast. Kathryn Leighton is the other artist who is painting on the shores of Lake McDermott. There could fcarcely be found a greater contrast than these two artists. Their point of view is entirely different, con- sequently their manner of painting is just as different. Mrs. Leighton is a California artist, although originally from the East, but has done most of her work in the West. She lives in Los Angeles and is an active member of the California Art club and has exhibited fre- duentiy throwghout California, in Buffalo, Cleveland and _ Philadel. phia. Her paintings are popular and much sought after by the magazines and the women’s clubs in the West. A reproduction in color of one of her mountain views, ‘“‘Gunsight Pass’’ was used by Country Life in its June number. Mrs. Leighton is very facile in her painting and works with great rapidity, often completing an entire canvoss in eight hours. Her style is smooth and rather photographic in form, although good in color. Especially are the figures of the In- dians which she paints frequently strong in color. She is at present painting portraits of White Dog and Many Tail Feathers, two of the pic- turesque chiefs who live in Glacier park in summer and on the Indian reservation in winter. Her studio is built on the shore of the lake and has a background of Indian skins and decorations that add to the pic- turesqueness of the portraits. Her figures are realistic in type, but are very good of this kind. Mrs. Leigh- toh has painted here for three years and so has an understanding of the Indians and the surroundingse that makes her work interesting and ef- fective. ee oe Cowboy Painter. At the western entrance of the park is picturesque Lake McDon- |}. ald. This is the most beautiful as well as the largest lake in Glacier ark. Here in one of the cottages of Lewis’ Glacier Park hotel. Charles Russell has his studio here. Mr. Russell, it will be remembered, had an exhibition in the Corcoran gallery a little more than a year @go. He is called the cowboy paint- er and has had a most adventurous and picturesque life. He has had except that which he has gtven himself. “Coming West as a boy, ‘he lived the life of a cowboy. 7d then began to paint and model i'.» men and lackfeet Indians as one of in their teepees, and speaks He did illustra- n he painted independent- gan modeling horses, buf- \ animals of the plains new so well. His bronze even more effective than OAS Pi One Shes Six of the 21 paintings by J.C. Johansen, which have been presented to the National Gallery of Art.

Recently he has painted a decora- tion for the California home of Mr. Doheny, for which he received the munificent sum of $100,000. Mr. Russell is very popular with many Western patrons, and finds a ready sale for his works. Although he is now well toward threescore and ten, he is an active producer. He lives in Lewis’ hotel every summer, near his old friends, the Blackfeet Indians, with whom he maintains friendly relations. At this western entrance of the park one has the feeling more of unspoiled nature, the rare beauty of the lake, forest and mountains, which are indescribably beautiful. There is here no commercial aspect, | and all is the pure delight of the | forest primeval and the charm of the serenity of great mountains that no human seems to inhabit, and the | great silence of open spaces. s ' ' - + 7 | Etchings Shown. | In Seattle. Washington city seems very near, for one of our Washing- | summer. Mr. Gordon ings in this part of the coast. Mr. | Dunthorne is here for the summer | for the first time. This is in itself an excellent work. Neither Port- land nor Seattle has ever had an opportunity to see fine etchings, with the rare exception when there may be an exhibition in the Port- land museum. The opening exhi- bition that Mr. Dunthorne Had was of etching sand dry points by Nor- man Wilkinson, John Taylor Arms, Emil Fuchs, Anders Zorn, August Lepre and Muirhead Bone and Frank W. Benson. He also showed ton art lovers is living here for the!

The Seattle chamber of commerce recently gave $700 in prizes. The total prizes in mone- tary awards was $25,000 in a re- cent horse show. The report is that the West buys with zest anything that it really likes in art, as well as in other things. Mr. Dunthorne’s second exhibit was of the works of Roi Partridge, who is well Known on the coast, as he now lives in San Francisco. The next exhibition was of Alfred Hutty's etchings, and he also ex- pects to have an exhibition of early American maps and of Frank W. | Benson’s etchings and water colors. Again we have the magic touch of the East in the West this’ time. This interchange of art should also bring better understanding and new interests. Py * * Portland Active. In Portland there is a museum, although small, yet is doing its part to awaken art appreciation. the works of sculptures had _ just closed and there was on exhibit a collection of contemporary Tunga- ‘rian prints, to continue until Sep- ‘tember. These prints were unusu- | ally fine in printing and in the subject matter as well. ‘“‘Forsaken | Hill,’’ by Istran Szonyi, is most ef- fective; ‘’‘Revelation,’’ by OszKar; “Going to the Fair.’’ by Gyula Con- raid, are Some of the most inter- esting, but the prints of Deszo Bok- ros. Zoltan Kaveszky, Robert Le- nard, Nagy. Sandor, Oskar Schell- ing, Mandor Varge, Istvan Zador and Arnold Gara all are most dis- tinctive as well as dramatic in con- cept. Harry Wendt is the instructor of the excellent art school, which is unusual of its kind. It has many talented students who are in public exhibitions, showing the _ ability that they undoubtedly possess. Mr. Wendt is an artist of much originality, which can be seen in |his delightful water colors of Pa- | , Which he has made a specialty. of He has painted in Alaska and the northern mountains, the Cascade mountains, of which he shows some remarkable constructive work. There is a flourishing arts and crafts club in Portland, an arts study club and a sketch club that is composed of the active artists in the city. Surely few cities can command greater facilitics in rare scenery, for is there not the mighty Columbia river and the mountains that reach down to its shores as well as great forests which are rich in great trees to draw from? The museum, however, the center of the art life of the city and is doing its part. It has some ex- cellent paintings of the old schools and an exhibition of the paintings of Francis Murphy, Child Hassam and Francis McComas, all of west- ern scenes. ; Recently a gift has been received from a generous donor of a collec- tion of rare Greek vases of the fifth century from Naples, that are in process of being installed and will be used as the basis of work in the class in design under the direction of Miss Etta Failing, who is also the secretary of the museum and has charge of the lectures on the history of art, which she handles in an in- dividual manner. cific coast plants and. flowers, is, | Terse Reviews of Latest Books on Our Shelves HOT SATURDAY. By Harvey Ferguson. (Alfred Knopp, New York.) / This is not as ‘‘jazzy”’ a tale as it sounds, but ns a clever, rather sardonic story of the events of one day in New Mexico. The girl pin- ing in the Southwestern town for an eligible man of course hails with delight and feminine interest the arrival of a wealthy young man from the East. But the twu South- western suitors are alert and the gullible young man is as putty in their hands until romance takes command of the situation and the hero and heroine live happily for ever afterward. THE PARIS THAT IS PARIS. By Watson White, with many illus- trations. Price $3.00. (Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York.) “The Paris that is Paris’’ might have been more appropriately named ‘‘The Paris that was Paris’’ for it deals chiefly with the his- torical memories evoked by the buildings and streets of that city. There is no doubt, however, that all the events of its varied past go to make up the incomparable at- mosphere of the present day city so perhaps the title is not so incorrect. This is not one of the travel books written after a stay of,two or three weeks. It reveals a wealth of research and study of French history but readers need ‘not be afraid that it will be dull or heavy reading; on the contrary it is filled with the most fascinating tales of life in old Paris and it is not neces- sary to be contemplating a trip in order to enjoy reading this book. It seems to transport one back into the spirit of the different centuries which have witnessed the stirring dramas of the history of Paris and is very hard to put down once one has started reading it, even though ‘8, which are dramatic— ‘ees many of the tales are so cruel and bloodthirsty that they rather cast a shadow over the beauty and grace of the city. The many illustrations and maps, as well as the careful explanations, make it very simple for the visitor to Paris to explore thoroughly the districts that were the scene of the different events related. LISTEN. MOON! by Leonard Cline. (The Viking Press, New York.) Luna, that world of imagination and dead empires, has had to listen to many romances from earth men since it got within moon shot, 80 to speak, of this planet. For many ages mankind has blamed its mad- dest enterprises on the influence of the moon. . Surely there was never a more erratic undertaking than pictured by Mr. Cline so vividly in ‘Listen, Moon.” A perfectly proper Latin professor is infected with pi- rate madness and forsaking all his respectability and prestige to go on a mad pirate jaunt with Ruth, the twenty-first century daughter of his pastor. Of course, Prof. Chaffinch finds congenial spirits to accompany him on the lark. A reporter hears of the venture and fans the flame into a high breeze, which furnishes copy by the yard to him and huge head- lines to the papers glad of a mid- summer sensation. Among the ev- eryday occupations of the renegade professor were defwing Klan, aiding an elopement, falling in love, searching for buried treasure along the peaceful shores of Chesapeake bay and generally acting in a most unprofessional manner. There is humor, adventure, fun and an elfin-like thread of the unique in ‘‘Listen, Moon.” It is a ‘great book for a vacation afternoon, to be read in a hammock swaying to and fro to. the call of cool sea breezes By and by the romance and. the magic of the book will be- ~~ ™e ‘woman just growing up. come very, very real under such cir- cumstances, and like Prof. Chaf- finch, every inhibition of the con- ventional and usual will fall away from the soul. THE NEW NATURAL HISTORY, by Prof. J. Arthur Thomson. (G, P. Putnam’s Sons, New York.). The second of the series of three volumes of this interesting publica- tion is of great interest as it is a plain and inspiring story of the great nature world around us. This romance of nature’s wonderland is written for the general reader, the student and the young man and Not the least attractive part of it are the illustrations, many of them being full book size colored ones. Prof. Thomson has arranged’ his material in a most interesting man- ner. Instead of the old-time formal separation into Mammalia, birds, fishes and reptiles, each of the great divisions is treated in each volume. In the second volume he tells of the ways of British Mammals, life histories, the ways of reptiles, the ways of amphibians, the ways of fishes, the mammals of the arctic ocean, the Trunda, the northern forest, antartic animals, animals of the mountains and plains, steppes and fauna, the tropical forests, ani- mals of the trees, jungles. and swamps, life of the Crato lands and Congo forests, natural history of spring, natural history of summer, natural history of autumn, natural history of winter and animals round the year.

This latest accession to the gallery is a collec- tion of 21 portraits of men promi- nent in the history-making events immediately following the world war. The artist is John C. Johan- sen, N. A. The*donor of the pic- tures for the present prefers to re- main unknown. The portraits were made by Mr. Johansen on the order of the na- tional art committee, a group of eleven representative Americans from various sections of the coun- try, who requested the artist to paint from life the group of men who signed the treaty of peace at Versailles, and to incorporate their portraits in the picture, known as “Signing the Peace Treaty, June 28, 1919,’’ now hanging in the National Gallery of Art at Washington. To paint this great canvas, Mr. Johansen had individual sittings with every one of the men in the group. The war President at his busy desk took time to pose for this pictorial record of a world fa- mous event, as did Secretary of State Lansing, Assistant Secretary Polk, Gen. Pershing, Gen. Tasker Bliss and Henry White. The artist traveled well over Europe to obtain sittings from the others in the group in their home environment. To England he went to paint the portraits of Premier Lloyd George, Bonar Law, Gen. Haig (done at the army headquarters at London) and Earl Balfour. He crossed the sea to France to obtain _ sittings from Premier Clemenceau, Marshal Joffre, Gen. Foch, M. Klotz, French finance minister, and Stephen Pichon, foreign minister. Premier Orlando was painted in his study at Rome, and Premier Ignace Jan Paderewski was painted in Paris. These 21 splendid portrait studies of world-famous men, now given to the American public by a patriotic American, have not only great value as the work of a highly tal- ented American portrait painter but as having been painted from the distinguished subjects amidst their own surroundings. The por- traits average about 2 feet by 3 in dimensions, and are hung on screens in the room on the second floor of the gallery which contains the war portrait collection, of which this late accession forms a part. War Portrait Collection. Washington’s art patrons recall with vivid interest the brilliant opening ofthe world war portrait collection of the National Gallery of Art, which inaugurated the found- ing at Washington of a national | portrait gallery. The paintings were all by Americans, and this great picture by Johansen, showing the signing of the peace treaty at Versailles, has, since its completion, occupied the center of the group. The inception of this whole collec- tion, including the Versailles group, is interesting. In the spring of 1919 it became evident to several lovers of Ameri- can art that if the United States was to have a pictorial record of the world war it would be necessary immediately to send artists to Eu- rope for that purpose. The interest of a number of distinguished lead- ers of American and of the allied nations was enlisted and their con- sent procured for the painting of the portraits by prominent Ameri- can artists. With the indorsement of the Smithsonian institution, as custodian of the National Gallery of Art, the American Federation of Arts, and the American mission to negotiate peace, then in session at Paris, the national art committee came into being for the purpose of carrying out this idea and thus ini- tiating and establishing at Wash- ington of the National Portrait gal- lery. Members of the national art com- mittee were: Henry White, chair- man; Herbert L. Pratt, secretary and treasurer; Mrs. W. H. Crocker, Robert W. De Forest, Abram Gar- field, Mrs. E. H. Harriman, Arthur W. Meeker, J. Pierpont Morgan, Charles P. Taft, Charles D., Walcott and the late Henry C. Frick. Presentation Plan. That the gift of these paintings might be thoroughly national in character, it was decided that a group of those portraits, financed by the art patrons of any city, would be inscribed as presented to the Na- tional Portfait gallery by that city and that a representative of that city should become an _ honorary member of the national art commit- tee. The cities which have made presentations are Chicago, Cin- cinnati, Cleveland, New York and San Francisco. The artists chosen to paint the war portraits include the names of Cecilia ‘Beaux, Joseph DeCamp, Charles Hopkinson, Jean McLane, Edmund C. Tarbell, Doug- las Volk, Irving R. Wiles and John C. Johansen. The portraits in the group paint- ed by Johansen are Field Marshal Haig, Marshal Joffre, Gen. Diaz, Premier Orlando, as well as the group ‘“‘Signing the Peace Treaty, June 28, 1919,” which was the gift of the city of New York. Johan- sen’s wife, known to the art world as Jean McLane, was asked to paint the portraits of Elizabeth, Queen of the Belgians, Premier Hughes and Premier, Venizelos. Artist Johansen. The painter of this group was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1876, and brought to this country as an infant. He was a pupil of the Art institute at Chicago, of. Duveneck in Cincinnati and at- tended the Julien academy at Paris. He is a member of the National Academy, the National Society of Portrait Painters, and the Ameri- can Federation of Arts, and is a resident of New York. MUSICAL LIFE OF DAMROSCH TOLD IN BOOK Music is the common language of the world and makes its own appeal. All lovers of music will be interested in the volume, ‘My Musical life,’’ by Walter Damrosch (Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York), the memoirs of the con- ductor of the New York Symphony orchestra, whose active life has been so potent a factor in the growth of music in America. Walter Damrosch was born in Breslau, Russia, January 30, 1862. At that time we were busily en- gaged in our own civil war and the bands on both sides of the Ma- son and Dixon line were playing martial music. Walter Damrosch’s earliest recol- lections were connected with the Austro-Prubsian war of 1866. His father before him was a musician and an associate of Liszt, Wagner, Von Bulow, Clara Schuman, Tausig, Joachim, Auer, Haenselt and Ru- benstein, so that from his infancy the boy was familiar with the great artists of the world and took to music as naturally as a duck takes to water. There was a good deal of martial music, too, and the boy and his brother, Frank: were great- ly interested in the soldier. “I can remember,” he tell us. “my brother and I standing at a country road, each armed with a huge bouquet of flowers we had gathered and watching for Gen. Steinmetz and his army to pass on their way to the front.’’ _Mr. Damrosch’s “My Musical Life,’’ carries an appeal to all Amer- icans, for he writes himself down an American musician. He came to America when he was 9 years old and when he was old enough to get married he he- came a son-in-law of James G. Blaine, one of the most attractive men in American public life. The author’s dedication of his book to his wife, whom he bash- fully calls ‘‘M,”’ is one of the nicest things in the book. She was Miss Margaret Blaine, a sister to Mrs. Harriet Blaine Beale, of Washing- ton, whose only son was killed in the world war. James G. Blaine had two grandsons killed in the world war. When Mr. Damrosch was born his future father-in-law had just been elected a member of Congress from Maine. He was afterward Speaker of the House and in 1888 he became Secretary of State under President Harrison and was the master spirit of the Pan-American congress, which was projected by him, and guided by him, as its presiding of- ficer during its entire session of five months. He left a lasting rec- ord of his life in a brilliant histori- cal work in two volumes entitled ‘Twenty Years of Congress.’’ The story of Mr. Damrosch’'s life is in a large degree that of the re- cent history of music in America and his recollections of great mu- sicilans of yesterday are most enter- taining and instructive. He gives us a detailed account of the origin and struggle of the New York Symphony orchestra on its way to its present proud post as one of the leading musical aggregations of the world, an achievement largely due to the musical genuis of Mr. Damrosch. Mr. Damrosch has great faith in the possibilities of America from a musical point of view. In his post- lude, he writes: “I love the people among whom my father settled be- cause he firmly believed that in America his children would have a greater opportunity for develop- ment than in old Europe. “The musical field in America is certainly wonderful in its possibili- ties and all my life I have reached out with both hands and have work- ed incessantly and enthusiastically in my calling. In part, at least, I have tried to repay what I owe to my compatriots for their confidence and help. But the power of the in- dividual is comparatively small, and while our musicians have already ac- complished miracles within the short period that music has played a part in our civilization, so much yet re- mains to, be done that I long for at least 100 more year's of life, partly to continue my work, but still more to satisfy my eager curiosity as to the musical future of our people.” Mrs. Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, the well-known novelist, has been awarded the Howells medal for dis- tinguished work in fiction by the American Academy of Arts and Let- ters. Howells’ medal commemorates the American novelist, who was the first president of the academy. It is given every fifth year in recogni- tion of the most distinguished work of American fiction published dur-| ing that period. It was with Mary Wilkins Freeman, in a very small group, that American short story writing really achieved any distinc- tion and size. She was discovered by Henry Mills Alden, when he was the famous editor of Harpers Mag- azine. Mrs. Wilkins’ books are published by Harpers. They include: ‘‘Debt- or,”’ “‘Giles Corey, Yeoman,” “‘Hum- ble Romance, ‘‘New England Nun,” ‘‘Pembroke’’ and ‘“‘Portion of Labor.” A selection of Mrs. Freeman’s best short stories will be published by Harpers in one volume within the year.

BOOK NOTES | Booklegging, as the surreptitious selling of suppressed books has sometimes been called, nothing new. In Arthur L. Hayward’s ‘‘The Days of Dickens,”’ published by the Duttons, mention is made of Rich- ard Carlile, a free-thinking publish- er and ae strong champion of Thomas Paine. “His bookshop was so constantly raided by the police for seditious literature and his as- sistants so frequently taken into custody, that eventually he had re- course to selling his books auto- matically. On the counter was a dial with a pointer. Around this dial were the titles of the works he sold, the price being marked against each; the customer simply turned the pointer to which-.title he re- quired, deposited the price on the counter—and the book automati- cally dropped down in front of him.’’ Does any one know of an earlier ‘‘automat.’’ 18 In memory of Amy Lowell a meeting was recently held at Keats house, Hampstead, England. Among the speakers were Florence Ayscough, John Drinkwater and John Gould Fletcher. A letter was read from Middleton Murry, ex- pressing the view that Miss Lowell’s “Life of John Keats” (Houghton Mifflin Co.) was the final one. Mrs. Ayscough, long a friend of Miss Lowell, gave an intimate account of the poet’s life and work. The Keats house, for the preseryation of which Amy Lowell had always worked, was placed at Mrs. Ayscough’s dis- posal by the Keats house commit- tee in appreciation and acknowl- edgment of: Miss Lowell's services. “What's o’Clock,” which won the Pulitzer prize in poetry for 1925, is to be followed this fall by another volume of posthumous poery, ‘‘East Wind,’ her publishers, Houghton Mifflin Co., announce. After seeing an advance copy of ‘“‘Lord’’ George Sanger’s ‘‘Seventy Years a Showman,’’ George Ade wrote from his farm at Brook, Ind.: “Il have an abiding enthusi- asm for the traveling tent show. | Know a good many of the showmen in chance to visit a ‘big top.’ spent a month with the Ringling Brothers down through the black belt.

Each bookfellow buys three cop- ies of the book for each page con- tributed from his pen. In this sen- sible manner a circulation for the volumes is obtained and as a limit of ten pages is set for the works of each contributor, 30 books are the most for which any contributor can be held responsible. The plan really puts lation is feasible the into cireu- instead of leaving them to |}adorn the dusty book shelves of the town book seller. It-is to be pre- sumed that bookfellow auto- sraphs his copies before presenting them to his friend and so every one is happy; the publisher is paid }for his effort. the poet gets a hear- ing from those most likely to lend a favorable ear to his offerings and the critic is left in a genial mood because of the good sense displayed in the arrangement. It is not to be supposed that the ; poems in the Anthology do not merit publication elsewhere. AS a | matter of fact, the greater part of the poems had received previous publication in magazines and peri- Odicals. The Anthology attractive volume from the typo- graphical point of view.

van THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. ‘AUGUST 22, 19296. *s By VYLLA POE WILSON. T HE voteless women of the Dis- trict of Columbia and those interested in District activi- ties, or who live here and have votes in nearby and other States, have joined hands with the women living in voting communities to ob- iain “presentation of women at the polls this fall. Outside of the rallying call sent out from national headquarters of women organizations of civic, politi- cal and patriotic character for fair voters to exercise their right of franchise at the polls, the organiza- tions are taking an active interest in the announced candidates both from a national and a local stand- point. jhe interest of the women of the District of Columbia naturally over- laups from a local and national sense. So many women in District organi- zations live in Maryland and Vir- ginia in the so-called suburbs of the | | National Capital that they enjoy the | voting privilege even when their | business and social interests are in | Washington. This leads to a closer bond of union between the women in the city and those who live just outside of it. This sympathetic affiliation is being demonstrated just now in the lively concern District women are taking in the candidacy of Mrs. Eva! C. Chase, president of the Maryland | Federation of Republican Clubs, of | Riverdale, who is running for the post of clerk of the Maryland court of appeals. Mrs. Chase, through her activity in the Maryland Federation | of Clubs, is well known to the club women of Washington. Some of the clubs of Prince Georges county be- long not only to the county but the Maryland and District federations, | Therefore, Mrs. Chase, as | well as many of the other club lead- | as well. ers of nearby Maryland counties, nag always been a frequent attend- ant at District meetings and ban- | quets. While there was a wide difference of opinion which developed contro- vergial aspects between many Amer- ican women leaders and the leaders of the American and other sections | of | of the International Council Women, which held its convention at the auditorium two years ago, over peace and disarmament discus- sions and methods, the women were very generallyin accord on the mat- ter of suffrage and the establish- ment of the rights of women in the world. In this body were two wom- en veteran suffragists who won the admiration of all who heard them because of the really constructive work they accomplished in their years of service to the cause of women. These two women are now leading the campaign for suffrage for France. They are Mme. de Sainte Croix, president of the French Na- tional Council of Women and a fa- mous international worker for the protection of women, and.Mme. Ma- rie Verone, a leading French wom- en advocate. It is also one of the signs of the times that through the efforts of these women and their followers that there is a decided in- clination among the men of France, especially those in public affairs, toward suffrage for women. Some of the French senators have frankly stated that the vote of the women would aid thse country. There are no long, idle vacation days for the leaders of the National Leaguc of Women Voters and the National Woman’s Party this year. The recent controversy between those who believe in safeguarding so-called protective Jaws for women and those who believe in establish- ment of a law wiping out all dis- criminations against women, which culminated in the National Wom- an's Party being refused admission to the recent international conven- tion of the International. Suffrage Alliance, has only .added fuel to the fires of ambitions to secure the legislation desired. The National Woman’s Party believes that a “blanket law’’ fix- ing equality of the sexes weuld in the end be more of safeguard than the individual State laws which they claim sometimes make women the unpreferred laborers. This does not meah, it is explained, that they do. not believe in laws suited to the needs of the individ- ual workers, but believe that they should be based on other consid- erations than mere sex. a au ais nemeteeneaell Speaking of the French, Amer- ican club women have read. with irfterest the recent utterances of M. Jules Jusserand, who, when he was Ambassador to the United States, was admired and beloved by the women of this nation be- cause of his wide knowledge and understanding of our history and institutions.

They like to feel clean and like to be clean for health’s sake. Yet it is safe to say that 85 per cent of the homes and apartments need more bathrooms. In fact most all home owners, tenants, architects and builders agree that it is a mis- take to economize on bathrooms. More bathrooms in every home is the modern slogan, and it is going to become more popular every year. It won't be long before the average American family will consider two bathrooms just as necessary as they consider one bathroom today. You can't stop the forward progress of better living conditions and higher standards in the home. In the average.American house- hold the morning rush starts at 7:20. No one has a second to lose. What happens? The “early bird” gets the bathroom first and the oth- er members of the family have to wait. Again, refreshing morning baths are lost. while Dad slices his chin during a hectic shave. Again, comfort is sacrificed and health neg- lected. Thus morning after morn- ing, comfort, convenience and hap- piness are sacrificed—all for the want of sufficient bathroom facili- ties. A word about bathroom construc- tion. A great many people have an idea that all that is necessary to in- stall plumbing fixtures in a house is to place the fixtures and run a waste pipe from them and a water supply pipe to them, and are of the opinion that comprises a plumbing installa- tion. This is far from the truth. In a modern installation it is neces- sary to run ventilation piping through the roof properly connect- ed with the sewer and fixtures to guard against the encroachments of sewer air into the building. This is done by properly venting the trap of each fixture. While it might seem unimportant to the average: house- holder just how the plumbing sys- tem is installed, it should be re- membered that the requirements of the city ordinance and rules of she health department must be observ- ed in all cases. Extra Room Advised. The value and importance of hav- ing plumbing installed in a scien- tific and sanitary manner and in ac- cordance with accepted standards, is recognized not only by municipal and State governments but by the national government itself. Recom- mended minimum requirements for plumbing in dwellings and similar buildings has recently been adopted by the Department of Commerce. To relieve the family congestion of the bathroom in the early morn- ing hours, has it ever occurred to you that it would be an advantage ' to install an extra lavatory? While we are far ahead of Europe in the number and quality of our bath- rooms, the best hotels in and the continent are with two lavatories in room. Where the large enough to in an additional bathroom, it {is well worth while to consider the advisability of installifg an extra lavatory in your bathroom.

Additional bathrooms and plumbing fixtures may now be installed on tRe de- ferred payment plan. Arrange- ments may be made by your plumber for a finance company to handle the deferred payments. There is no Mgitimate reason, if you are not in a position to pay cash, why you should not arrange for the installation of additional plumbing equipment on the _ time-payment plan.

It only goes to prove that. the trade has long contended—that people are always willing to pay for comfortably arranged and sani- tarily equipped homes—be they one-family dwellings, flats or large apartment houses. That working people of limited means are ready to increase their own rents in re- turn for modern plumbing installa- tions—-which, in a sense, means financial sacrifice on their part—is the best evi@snce in the world that the message of sanitation has taken | deep root with the people. If history proves anything, it is that the people can have anything want, of course, within the ability of man to produce, or reach, when they are ready for it. When people generally demand sanitary living quarters and healthful sur- roundings, disease-breeding tene- ment districts with their unwhole- some hovels will have to go. And this may come {40 pass sooner than most of us anticipate; certainly the world is moving for- ward at a rapid pace these days, and, we like to believe, toward a greater and finer civilization. Electric Magnet Used As Emergency Brake Starting and running street cars by electric power.is well known, but braking bv electricity is more un- common. Several American electric railway companies are equipping their cars with powerful magnets suspended from car trucks 2 inches over the rails. In emergencies mo- tormen can throw these magnets down close to the rail by touching an air valve. They are energized, and exert such a resistance pull that the car can be stopped in two-thirds the distance required when air brakes alone are used. An exhaustive series of showed that the magnetic brakes made reductions in stopping Aime varying from 22 to 46 per cent, thus increasing the safety of the car by that much.

They leaked and ‘all the king's horses and all the king’s men’’ could not keep ’em from leaking. The power plant there consists of a battery of -six Scotch marine bollers, each containing 2,300 gal- lons of water and constantly main- tained at 80 pounds pressure. Inas- much as these boilers were installed some years ago, they had begun to need replacements. In one boiler it was found necessary to replace 20 tubes, and in other boilers as well tubes had to be replaced. Then the trouble began. When- ever the firedoors were opened, the rush of cold air caused rapid con- traction, and when the doors were closed there was an immediate ex- pansion and the new tubes would not expand and contract in the same ratio as the rest of the tubing. The result was leaks and, what’s more, many of them. Boilers Still Leaked. Boilermakers who were called in rolled (expanded) the tubes—still they leaked. Boilermakers were called in again and again but with no improvement. One boiler was leaking so badly that it was difficult to keep fire up. Then the chief engineer began studying his trade. papers for a remedy and, seeing an advertise- ment of a well-known boiler liquid, decided to try it. As a trial he put the liquid into the worst boiler, get- ting up steam pressure and then pouring the liquid right 4n the boil- er, using one part of liquid for every 300 parts of water in the boil- er. The leaks were stopped in eight hours, repaired permanently. On the strength of this test the chief engineer proceeded to repair two more boilers, putting the same liquid into the boilers through the discharge line, and repairing both boilers in two hours. Then he re- paired a fourth boiler, putting the liquid in through the feed pumps. Sealed Permanently. have not leaked is said that they will never leak again. The chief. engi- neer now, however, keeps boiler liquid on hand ready for any emer- gency or for’any new leaks which mav develop. To many people it seems incred- ible that a liquid which dissolves in the water in the boiler can re- pair leaks permanently to with- stand high steam pressure, but the foregoing is an example of how successfully it does repair leaks in high pressure ‘boilers. A reliable boiler liquid prevents leaks in boilers in the same way that the white corpuscles in our blood stop blood from flowing. If it were not for all these white corpuscles humans would bleed to death from a mere scratch, but the white corpuscles ooze out with the blood and coagulate or form a scab These boilers since and it 100 automobiles. on the road by a party from the er.

GROUND CLAMP ADVISED By ESTEN L. GRIMM, Manager, the Okay Radio Company. Well, well, well! Perhaps you for- get your acrial when you gave your set the annual spring cleaning and once-over. Out of about. 100 aerials personal- ly inspected by the writer two were found to be fair, the majority had been up between one and two years and were of plain copper wire, which was highly oxidized (rusted), and coated with soot. Now soot is practically pure carbon, the stuff that some rheostats are made of. Just think of using a rheostat, a resistance, for an acrial! Even the few tinned and bronze aerials used were oxidized to an extent. But ; {they had the usual rheostat surface. Let’s quit using bare metal wires. You can and should use insulated wire and the only practical insula- tion is enamel. The writer uses No. 12 solid enamel wire running direct to the set. Replace the old aerial with No. 12 or 14 enameled copper wire, use glazed porcelain or glass insulators. or polish off your old ones. The in- finitesimal amount of § current caught on your aerial can leak off through one bad insulator. Never just twist your aerial and lead-in wires together. Solder the joint and tape tightly after painting the joint with radio cement. Keep your lead-in at least two feet away from walls by extending stick out horizontally from roof with an in- sulator on the end of the stick. The lead-in should be stretched taut or else it will swing and cause the station you have tuned in to fade. Don’t forget the ground connec- tion. A few turns of wire lightly wrapped around a dirty pipe or painted is not a ground. Scrape or file the pipe bright and use a zround clamp that has a set screw which digs into the pipe. Solder or lock ground wire to this: clamp. Remember—More distance can be received with a one tube set and a good aerial or ground than with the highest priced 5 or 6 tube set with a poor aerial and ground. The writer has picked up the Pacific Coast on a one-tube set within the past ten days, showing that distance can be received in the summer time. Show your set a good time by treating it to a good aérial. You will be surprised at the result, I won't. TUNGSTEN LAMPS HELD CHEAPER THAN CARBON Importations of Clearer Light, However, Show Grow- ing Increase. During the“year 1925 the sale of large carbon lamps aggregated more than 16,000,000, of which nearly 14,000,000 were imported and 2,500,000 were of domestic manufacture. The great increase in the number of carbon lamps im- ported and sold in this country is a matter of some concern and em- phasizes the seriousness of their use for ordinary lighting purposes. With the introduction of the tungsten filament lamp and im- mediately following this for a few years there was an active campaign to educate the public to the ad- vantages of the new lamp explain- ing the saving in energy consump- tion. However, the new generation is apparently not familiar with the fact that tungsten lamps will give from three to four times as much light as carbon lamps of the same wattage. The imported carbon lamps are not marked to show that they are carbon lamps and many do not car- ry any labels to show their wat- tages. Usually if the dealer is ques- tioned in regard to current con- sumption the customer is referred to the marking on the base which is, on the majority of lamps, 16 cp- 115 V, with some such remark as “candlepower or watts-same thing.’”’ As the lamps are usually colored to approximate the tints used on tungsten lamps and the bulb is of the small round type, the customer forms the opinion that they are ob- taining a low wattage tungsten lamp. Most of these lamps are finished with rather a dense coating in white or colors, which eliminates the pos- sibility of seeing the filament, and makes it virtually impossible for the customer to identify his pur- chase. Probably the majority of the lamps are sold through the 5, 10 and 25 cent variety stores, and the class of people who purchase the lamps do not realize that for an initial saving of about 10 cents a lamp they may have to pay out an additional $2 or more in energy costs over a Mazda lamp, which would give the same or more light. The wattages of these lamps aver- age about 40, but may run as high as 75.or 80. While the majority of these for- eign carbon lamps are sold through the 5 and 10 cent stores, a large quantity are retailed by electrical dealers, some of which also sell Mazda lamps. However, it has been our experience that this class of dealer upon query will admit that the carbon lamp.takes more current to operate and consequently is more expensive in the end than the more efficient Mazda lamp. Some of these dealers admit that they actually sell many more of. t carbon colored lamps than of ,the tungsten lamps. eir customers re more inter- ested in the present “‘bargain’’ than in a possible future saving on their electric bill. An interesting note of progress in the building industry in Wash- ington is visible in the absence of all gasoline-driven machinery at the site of the new Press club. Here in construction work, the power is] 100 per cent electrical motor driven. : ON POST HOUR Femara IVALEE NEWELL, ~ violinist, accompanied by Christo- ~ ei Tenley, will play during The ost hour from WRC at 6 o'clock tomorrow night. Electrical Supply Workers on Outing Starting from a section roped off by the police in front of the Na- tional Electric Supply Co., employes and guests of that firm departed for Morgantown, August 14, for their annual picnic. Escorted by motorcycle police to the District line, the 100 autos made a record run to the resort, where games and athletic events were held. Miss Lillian Hall won the beauty contest and Charles O. Reed received a loving cup as winner of the golf tournament. The August meeting of the Evec- tric League of Washington was an outstanding example of cooperation in the electrical industry. It was the largest attended midsummer meeting ever held by the league. Nonmembers as a as members were present. Theré-were 37 mem- bers at the meeting and 31 guests. Some of the guests came from thé headquarters of the large electrical equipment manufacturers. The purpose of the meeting was to cleay up in everybody's mind the new rules and regulations of the Potomac Electric Power Co. These rules place Washington with the other big cities in ‘‘keeping up to the times” in things electrical. It was decided that these rules should be put into effect not later than December 1, 1926, but any new jobs figured ‘between now and that date should be figured on the new and better rules and requirements. At the August meeting 38 elec- trical contractors were present. The power company was represented by thirteen, the jobbers by nine, the manufacturers by five, the dealers by two and the electrical depart- ment by one, Walter E. Kern, as- sistant electrical engineer, who is ever striving to cooperate and to make the city electrically gabove criticism. Dr. Morton G. Lloyd, electrical engineer of the bureau of standards, and expert in standardization of electrical equipment, was a guest of the league at its last meeting and gave many valuable suggestions concerning the new rules for this city. G. E. MacManus was also @ guest. Mr. McManus represents the John Pratt Co., and was at the meeting prepared to show pictures and de- tails cOwcerning some of the equip- ment which is required under the new rules. Carroll P. oldest of the Carpenter, one of the contractor members ; Electric ‘League Briefs efs | By N. H. BARNES, Assistant Secretary of the league, also stressed his point in a forceful*speech with photo- graphs. The annual conference of the electric leagues and clubs of the United States and Canada will be held at Association island, Hender- sons Harbor, New York, from Sep- tember 1 to Septemebr 4. The Eleéc- tric League of Washington is one of the young leagues, but is well represented. L. T. Souder, presi- dent of the Washington league, will address the meeting on “‘The Valué of Newspaper Advertising.’’ H. A. Brooks, of the Washington league, is a member of the National League council representing this portion of the country. Joseph S. Repetti has been doing the electrical work in connection with the extensive additions and changes in the monastery of Brook land, which is. one of the show places of Washington for visitors who seek the unusual in archi- tecture in religious edifices. Members of the Electric League of Washington are urged to attend the meeting September 9, which is to be held in the City club in the blue room. At this meeting Samuel Adams Chase, one of the oldest men in the electrical industry, will speak. Mr. .Chase is appearing under the auspices of A. M. Hyler, of the Washington office of the Westinghouse Electric & Manu- facturing Co. Howard P. Foley, electrical con- tractor, is doing the electrical work in the new National Press club building, and the new Arcade at Fourteenth street and Park road. The Arcade will have some new features’in lighting which have never been attempted. False win- dows, with lighting behind them that will make them even more beautiful than the real thing, are among the features. THE NERVE CENTER of your ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LL around you every day—in homes, offices, shops and storés—the accomplishments of ap- plied electricity are evident. You may marvel at the manner an electric range cooks dinner for hun- dreds of a hotel’s guests or give the glow of a small lamp a moment’s thought. But each accomplish- ment of electricity depends for its continuous safe operation on an item as tiny as—the FUSE! A fuse bow is the nerve center of your Pepco-) owered circuit, Just as the nerves “telegraph” the brain when the human body is in pain, soa fuse “blows” to shut off current when your home's wiring is faulty or over- loaded. It may be a short circuit im your wiring, over- loading of the line, or a loose, improperly insulated con- nection. Whatever it is, the warning of your fuse is in- stantaneous—or should be, If the trouble is not obvious, cull in an electrician immediately—just as you would call promptly on a doctor if your own nervous system told you all was not well, Like the nervous system of the human body it is folly to try to make these nerve centers of your elec- tric system stand up temporarily under severe strain. If your circuit calls for a 10-ampere fuse, use noth- ing else. On a properly wired circuit a fuse of the right. size will last indefinitely—but when trouble is in the offing they should “blow”? immediately. Never replace a fuse with one of greater capacity. This can lead to serious consequences, as many who have collected on a fraction of their fire insurance be- cause of such action can testify. The fuse box is not a slot machine—people are doubly “penny wise and pound foolish” who attempt to make a coin serve as a fuse replacement. When you do not know what has caused a fuse to “blow’— let your electrician diagnose the difficulty. Cooper- ate with your service of supply m this way and you utilize to greatest advantage the comfort-creating current of The Potomac Electric Power Company Matchless Service CAPITAL in Efficiency as Well as Location Main Ten Thousand An Emblem That Has Won lts Spurs It stands for Quality and Service in all things electrical. It identifies a personnel—in electrical crafts- manship, salesmanship and counsel—unre- mitting-in service to all in need of electrical work and beyond question dependable when- ever consulted or otherwise employed. Great and growing compliment is paid it daily by the steadily increasing number of people who—having dealt once with members of The Electric League are safe in the confi- dence that sends them back to us for further service again and again.

Beauty in Motor. Through changes’ which heen made in the motor, without in unv way decreasing its simplicity. the power has been so increased that it now will develop 110 actual brake horsepower. Beauty in the car has extended to the motor. All exposed nuts have been heavily nickel-plated and polished. trol rods and piping also are nick- cled and polished. Aluminum parts are scraped and sand blasted. Even the ferrules on the spark plugs have been nickel-plated as have the nuts used on the spark plug terminals.

A wide variety of body type is offered, sufficient to meet every re- quirement. In addition, for per- sons who want touches of their own personality in body design, there is an almost unlimited selection of custom designed and custom built hodies from the country’s best known custom-body builders. These are bodies built to the order of the owner with all the opportunity for personal choice given in selecting a costume from a famed modiste. In the standard bodies there also is a practically unlimited variety of choices in coloring and upholster- ing combinations. With greater beauty, it is assert- ed. a big increase in comfort been built in the Eight, already noted for its luxurious ease in rid- ing. as “The Restful Car.’’ Its long wheelbase, rugged but easy spring action, adequately controlled; deep cushions held rigidly to fixed con- tours by inspectors, the complete lubrication of the chassis at times and the roominess of the bodies, make for this restful com- fort. Packard engineers say that the great power of the both bodily comfort and mental ease because it rolls along over the /road at any speed so effortlessly. With the growing tendency of motorists to pass more time in their cars and the big increase in long distance motor travel, mental and body restfulness, say Packard en- gineers, aré among the most im- portant features of the improved Eight car. Much is added to the mental ease with an increase in the safety factors, through brakes which can not fail in their uni- formity of action or power.

A small cabinet or cupboard with padded shelves, approximately 2% | feet wide, 3 to 4 feet high and 12 ‘inches deep, makes an ideal con- tainer for carrving all kitchen and |dining service, as well as food sup- plies. The door should be hinged at bottom, that when will serve as a table. This should ‘be mounted on the. left running board toward the rear. Tent equipment should be of bal- loon silk or similar material that lis light and waterproof, folding | into a small parcel for convenience jin carrying. This can be carried ‘readily between hood and front fénder apron or strapped to the ‘running board. Tents requiring large poles and numerous pegs should be avoided. You can always support your tent between car or cars, depending ‘upon the size of party, or between ‘car and trees, which are ,found on desirable camping sites. Poles and pegs will make your |touring car look like a truck, un- ‘less you purchase the most expen- ‘sive equipment, having the light metal telescoping poles. Camp lighting is another impor- tant item, and can easily be taken care of by an extension cord at- tached to your lamp sockets. Trouble light cords as a rule are too short, but you can buy lamp cord as long as you wish and splice this into the usual trouble lamp in desired lengths. Whether camping or stopping at hotels, every long distance tourist should have a small hand ax and auto shovel.

If he happens to be handling a car that does not enjoy a really good reputation, he is under the necessity of forcing sales of his new car by making bad trades—by making too high al- lowances on used cars. Then in order to stay in business, he must try to pass those bad trades on. : The values of used cars are fairly well estab- lished and known to all dealers.

Free Use of Colors. The present vogue. expressed by a free use of color in both women’s and men’s apparel and by artists in their paintings and in decorative schemes has been the immediate in- centive which initiated Cadillac color program one year ago. There were trips to Paris and to the mills and laboratories of leading silk manufacturers. Con- 'sultations held with leading artists, 'chemists and color specialists were ‘followed by ‘months of creative .effort on the part of Fisher, Fleet- _ wood and Cadillac body designers.

And it is practical and free from excessive cost accord- ing to most recent statements from officials of the Cadillac Motor Car cOmpany. ‘Colors determined by Parisian dictators of fashion for the four seasons of the coming year, colors exactly copied from precious stones such as the sapphijn, the topaz, the garnet, the aqua,:iarine and the amethyst; harmoy»x-es and contrasts of colors created by leading manu- facturers of the finest silks have all figured in the preparation of Cadil- lac’s 500 color combinations and are jist as economically practical, it is its greater adaptability to produc- tion in many colors have made the new color program practical, and the physical equipment for its ap- plication is already provided in the expanded resources of the Fisher body plants. Seasonal Changes a Factor. ‘“‘In the determination of our color schemes,” states Ernest W. Seaholm, Cadillac chief engineer, “we have had access to the same sources of information as are used by fashion experts in predicting twelve months beforehand what will be the prevailing colors and shades. Seasonable changes are a factor. Relatively subdued shades are wanted in the winter and the live- liest in the spring. Our own ex- perience as to what colors have proved most pleasing placed many of them on our production program and a large number of them aré entirely new and original combina- tions.”’ To further encourage variety and to keep its color schemes always fresh and new, the company’s regu- lar production plans include the in- troduction once each month of an entirely new color combination on each of its 50 body types and styles. wae ——- --— First to introduce baltoon tires and steel disc wheels to Amer ican highways. . | First to introduce to American engineers the superior overhead valve and camshaft principle common to nearly all European fine cars and aeroplanes. | First—and still unapproached-- in affecting those smart and rak- ish graces of line and design that distinguish the finer motor cars of England, France and Italy.

Today it is universally recognized that the Whip- t has started an entire new trend in automobile esign. ~ * * The international ovation given the Whippet marks the climaxing achievement of a modern en- gineering program Taid out by John N. Willvs in 1922. In one complete line of cars, covering the buying needs of every American family, he has now incor- rated the most advanced principles of European esign—the highest standards of quality—the fina! word in modern efficiency. For the benefit of the American public, he has incorporated in these new-type cars all of the great accomplishments which’ European engineers have brought about unhampered by mass production. John N. Willys was the first great American auto- mobile manufacturer to recognize why most of the great developments in automobile design, year after year, were coming from Europe. He saw that the absence of mass production, coupled with a highly developed apprenticeship system, made possible constant experiment and constant improvement. He saw that the high cost of gasoline and high taxes were forcing European development along lines of intense economy, while most American manufac- turers were struggling with huge volume on stand- ardized models whose design had been at atc since before the beginning of the war. Four years ago he set out with a definite plan to completely revolutionize Willys-Overland automo- biles along these modern lines. The first step The first automobile of this new type was an- nounced 18 months ago. The Overland Six at $935. The success of this car is On Panhard, Mercedes, Peugéot and Voisin. The Great Six is beautifully de- signed ..:. distinctly European in appearance. Built by men. who make craftsmanship a fine art.

From a copyrighted drawing in the American Museum of Natural History, New York. HE real, original sea serpent may viewed at the National museum, in Washington, where the mounting of its skeleton for exhibi- tion has been lately completed. The reptile, as it was in life, closely corresponded to the modern idea of the monster that is supposed to haunt our ocean shores.in summertime and whose occasional reported appearances off the coast create much excitement and cause not a of alarm aft now he few shivers seaside resorts. Naturalists are by no means disposed to declare the sea serpent a myth. They are inclined to think that it may be real enough—possibly some unknown crea- ture of the deep tropical seas that fol- lows the gulf stream northward in the warm season. But, of course, if such a marine animal exists, there must be many sca serpents, a whole species of them. That only a single sea serpent should be seen now and then is not so very sur- prising. of the ocean inhabited by many kinds of fishes and other animals which are known to science only by a single specimen accidentally found. Undoubt- edly there are plenty more that are not known at all. But the sea serpent mounted at the National museum is indubitably real. It is a ‘‘mosasaur,” and probably 6,000,000 vears have elapsed since it swam in the Cretaceous sea. Dying, it sank to the bottom and covered which eventually hardened into rock, preserving the skeleton for latter day scientists to dig out of the stony matrix in western Kansas and put together. Six million vears ago a shallow sea extended from the Gulf: of Mexico northward over Texas, Oklahoma, Kan- sas, Nebraska and beyond to the Arctic ocean. Scientists call that vanished ocean the Cretaceous. sea. The east flank of the Rocky mountains marks its western shore line. Weird aquatic rep- tiles sported in salt water where today there are vast dry plains, while on the land lived creatures not less strange, and over the sea flying lizards with a wing spread of 25 feet flitted like gi- gantic moths. [i was in those waters that the origi- nal sea serpents, the mosasaurs, 80 feet long, swam and sought their prey, chiefly fish. They must have been ex- . ceedingly numerous. The late Prof. Othniel C. Marsh, while on an exploring cxpedition, passed through a valley in Nebraska where six of their skeletons were in sight at one time. Mainly ow. ‘ing to his efforts as a collector, Yale college now possesses mosasaur bones are Was The’ dark unfathomed depths — with: mud, that, represent 1,400 of the huge rep- tiles. Is the modern sea serpent a snake? Presumably not. It is surely much more likely to be some other kind of reptile. The mosasaur was very snake- like, but is properly to be described as a lizard, enormously elongated and pro- vided with paddles for swimming. A python or a boa has its lower jaw con- nected to its skull in such a way that it can open its mouth wide enough to swal.- low an animal of much greater diameter than itself. The was attached in way. jaw of the mosasaur just that snake-like Mosasaur bones are plentifully found south of the Platte river, opposite North 3en, in Nebraska. Lots of them have been dug out of the strata of shale that run along the faces of the bluffs over- looking the big stream. ‘Those shales were originally mud deposited on the bottom of water when all of Nebraska was overflowed by the Cretaceous sea. Since then it has hardened and become rock, which contains many fossil oyster shells and remains of other animals that live in salt water. Six million years ago, when creatures were alive, the Rocky moun- tains had not yet been uplifted. That backbone of the continent had hardly begun to grow, and the area now occu- pied by the Rockies was a nearly level country, covered with a luxuriant tropi- cal vegetation, with many wide, shallow water courses constantly shifting their channels, and extensive swamps which afforded agreeable living conditions for sluggish reptilian creatures content tu float or wade lazily about. The land was mostly wet; the sea was largely shallows. There wa: an amazing abundance of animai life in the water and on land. fi Sea turtles with a flipper spread of 20 feet when full grown were numer- ous; likewise crocodiles and alligators. Descend- ants of those turtles, alligators and crocodiles are found today in warm latitudes: they have survived on the earth, while their monstrous reptilian contempor- aries, including the whole of the won- derfully differentiated order of dino- saurs, have disappeared forever. The Cretaceous sea was not any- where deeper than a few hundred feet, and for the most part it was like a vast salt water pond, with numerous islands scattered over its surface and many sluggish rivers pouring into it. These conditions with a hot climate meant un- limited food for aquatic animals, and of fish life. there was an eT those ' Wil i} YU itt} ny TT TAH AHH ii] i} An} iy Ih HY | ’ eotets 44 pie cabs SR a al ) ys a habit Hise tt Tet sgeree abet i.

All these things happened in the age of chalk, which science calls the Creta- ceous epoch. It was an age in which chalk beds were laid down, in places hundreds of feet thick, on sea bottoms in various parts of the world. The famous white cliffs at Dover, England, are an outcrop ping of one of these beds, vast in extent, the ma- terial being the limy shells of tiny marine animals that lived near the surface of the ocean and dying sank to its floor. The pterodac- tyls were as much crea- tures of Queerest toric creatures, dacty! or flying lizard. Al- though unable to swim it was as much a creature of the water as our modern gulls and other sea fowl. ed Skeleton of the icthyornis, a prehistoric water bird whose jaws were equipped with a very formidable set of teeth and which was a very powerful flyer. Below, a reconstruction of the hesperornis or swimming ostrich which stood six feet high, had no wings at all and probably never left the water except ~ ovofusion. There were sharks as large as good sized modern. whales. It was upon the fishes that the marine reptiles chiefly fed; likewise: the flving lizards, called ‘“rterodactylsy’ which were surely the weirdest creatures that ever existed. That incomparable type of early aero- naut had a head 6 feet long, with a beak half that length and a pouch like a pelican’s. Its bat-like wings were of strong membrane. stretched on_ its “fingers” like the cover on the ribs of an umbrella. The beak was balanced by a back- ward extending crest, stiffened by a bone like a knife blade, which served as a rudder. When the pterodactyl wished to change its course in the air, it simply turned its head, and away it went on a new tack. As it skimmed over the sea, it would swoop down and scoop up fishes by dipping its lower mandible into the water and gather- ing them in as a: locomotive takes _ to breed. the water as our modern seafow!; and, of course, the same may be said of the strange toothed birds which fed on the fishes of the vanished sea that occupied the great interior basin east of the Rocky mountains. It is supposed that the winged lizards. laid their eggs on shore, leaving them to be hatched by’ the warmth of the sun, must have been’ smaller than marbles, judging from the size of the pelvic aperture. : Doubtless there were many species of birds, but’ the bones of only two have been found in the rocks. One of them, called the “hesperornis,” was in effect a swimming ostrich. Several of its skele- tons, fairly complete, have been dug up. The other, named “ichtyornis,” was not much bigger than a teal duck, but was a powerful flyer. Its teeth were set in sockets, whereas those of the hesperornis were. arranged in. grrooves along its jaws. The hesperornis stood 6 feet high, had no ‘wings 8 at all, and was the most iit i i ist ah? viii WOT A a a PET TMLee kaseDA sete GPAMMOPtAL LD Re A APTS) A tremendous waterfowl that ever exist- ed, being more completely aquatic than any other known bird. Its legs, used for propulsion, were long and muscular. Presumably the creature spent its en- tire life on the water, going ashore only to breed. It must have been a wonderful diver, seizing its finny prey with sharp and_ recurved teeth, while its lower mandi- ble, attached merely by a car- tilege, gave it a huge swal- ‘lowing capacity. Buried in sedimentary rocks which anciently were mud or sand, along the east flank of the Rockies, in Wyoming and clsewhere, are found great quantities of the bones—oc- casionally entire skeletons— of ‘“plesio- saurs,” which must have been vastly numerous in the Cretace- ous sea. They were fish eat- ing lizards, 50 feet in length, with very long necks and rel- atively short tails. The _plesio- saur has been described as resembling a snake thread- through the body of a turtlie- though, be it understood, the -creature wore no shell. It had four powerful swimming paddles somewhat:like the flukes of a whale, and must have been able to travel through the water at tre- mendous speed. Exceedingly active, with fierce teeth for seizing and tearing, it was conspicuously a reptile of prey. It is certainly odd that we today should have a knowledge of how that ancient lizard managed his digestion. He took into his stomach a number of rounded, water worn stones of consid- erable size, which served, like the peb- bles in a chicken's crop, to grind the food he swallowed whole. Many of these stones have been found inside the stomach cavities of plesiosaurs, and very curious in this connection is the seeming fact that the reptiles some- times traveled 200 miles or further, to procure them—as judged from the dis- tance of the nearest pebble deposits from the places where the skeletons were found. Of an altogether different genus was another fish eating lizard, half the size of the plesiosaur, with a head like an alligator’s and swimming paddles like a turtle’s flippers. Though it some- times .came ashore, the sea was its place of abode. It was most rapacious and predatory. Diving to great depths in pursuit of prey, it had, for seeing in the watery gloom, eyes nearly a foot in diameter, the cyeballs set in bony cups like those of a bird. This remarkable animal» was the “ichthyosaur” and it so happens that we know more about it than about.any other creature of the ancient past. We know. what it looked like, its mode of life and even the manner of its repro- duction. Most of the reptiles of that bygone epoch were undoubtedly egg layers, not excepting the most mon- strous of them, but this one brought forth its young alive. At the American Museum of Natural History, in New of: all prehis- the ptero- York, the visitor may see a fossil fe- male ichthyosaur with a half a dozen unborn little ones inside her body. : That particular specimen is Euro- pean.

Nothingg In the old days, Philbert, when a man took a girl to the theater he would slip out‘between the acts to smoke a cigar- ette, Philbert, and come back smelling of cloves, and she would-sit in her seat reading the program, Philbert, until the ' curtain. went un again. Prohibition has Ny \ ve SN 4 , _—_— changed all that, now, Philbert. No, Philbert, when a man takes a girl to the theater nowadays she carries the gin and orange juice in her handbag, Philbert, and between the acts they both go to the smoking room and enjoy a cigarette and a cocktail together. Thanks to the blessings of prohibition, Philbert, there is now more comradeship between the sexes. Why, Philbert, in the old days—and my Senator says the same—a man would go alone to a barroom and take a drink all by himself. Nowadays all that is changed, Philbert, and when a girl wants a drink she goes to a man’s room in the hotel, Philbert, or else he goes to her’s, Philbert, and they get a drink together. Thus, Philbert, the blessings of prohibition have brought about a true equality of the sexes, Phil- bert. Why, Philbert, a few years ago I would no more have thought of going to a gentleman’s room for a cocktail! than I would have thought of picking huckleberries with a catcher’s glove, but nowadays it is quite fashionable and all the girls say the same. They would rebel if anybody proposed to restore the saloon. That’s why the saloon is doomed forever, in my opinion. That’s what I think and my Senator says the same. * * a ND the new system is so much more convenient, Philbert.

But what’s the system nowadays, Philbert? When you want a drink nowadays, Philbert, you want it in a hurry, so you get your bootlegger on the phone and give your order, and he steps into his limousine and hustles right around, and by the a e ws i : en Aa “4 Wy ] Vt , ad VP na, NS A } 4 4‘ if J fi i ww Wwe Br \\W \ \ ‘KS \ .»\ L \\ — f X Sie Ah, Jos eV WSL? iG, VW WAST me At VA ay % SAY of dj 4 time you hang up the receiver on the hook he’s at the door with the laundry.

Protagonists nicely calculate advantages— real and fancied—accruing to this and that contender. But this fact stands out, starkly: €oal was only asymptom. The real trouble is deeper seated. In a word it is this: Eng- land did not profit by the lesson this country learned immediately after the war. « England did not learn that industrial initi- ative is better than government doles and subsidies; that mechanization to the nth degree must take the place of hand methods; that group well-being is to be achieved through the maximum of individual effort. British industrialism cherishes outworn tra- ditions. British labor is palsied with the delusion that less work brings greatér profit. Take coal.

The dif- ference between Iowa and the South.

We got eighteen punctures the first 200 miles, because people down here are so careless, and when they get through with an empty bottle they just throw it out in the road for the next car to pick up. Pro- hibition has certainly been a _ great blessing to this remote section of the country. Why, Philbert, before the cighteenth ameridment was passed peo- ple living down here had to drive 40 miles to town to get a drink, whereas under the present system it’s delivered at the door every morning, like the milk. I have met grown women with families, Philbert, who have told me that until prohibition came in they never had waked up with a headache in the morn- ing in their lives. In the old days, Phil- bert, a man did all the drinking for his family, but now that he has his wife and daughters‘to help him, Philbert, his la- bors are materially reduced, and more- over, Philbert, he’s home more, of eve- nings, and the family circle is once more restored, Philbert, like it used to be in this country, Philbert, before the hot- water radiator put the old-fashioned fireplace out of business. For these blessings of prohibition, Philbert, I am sure we should all be eternally grateful. My dear, you should see me in my new bathing suit, Philbert. To tell vou the truth, Philbert, when I’ve got that on it’s a whole lot casier to see me, Philbert, than it is to see my suit. Hal ha! That’s a joke, Philbert. I asked Representative Sahara H. Springwater the other day what he thought of my bath suit, Philbert, and he said that if somebody would lend him the Lick Ob- servatory telescope he would undertake to give his opinion. He’s so witty, Philbert. Mr. Springwater is campaign- ing down here now, as Hootchvillesis in his district, and I must say, Philbert, that he shakes the meanest cocktail of any dry in Congress. Well, Philbert, I must close now, as I am going to take a lesson at 4 o’clock on how to make sour mash, Philbert, out of ordinary cornpone, which you and I used to eat, Philbert, when we were children, but nowadays, Philbert, only the very rich. can afford to eat it.

I am all right in anything while it’s in its crude state, but the minute it gets to having any class, why I am sunk. After anything begins to take itself seriously I have to gradually drop out, sometimes sudden- ly. So that-is why they sent for me to get the British Pictures through this state. But I won’t last long here because they are a little too far advanced for me now. I was put in to try and handi- cap Dorothy Gish, who is the Star in the Picture. You all know Dorothy. She is one of the three Gish Sisters, the Mother and two daughters. | So I am here in London, uplifting the newest and greatest Art. It’s lots of fun over here making Pictures. Every time you finish a scene they bring you in a cup of tea, and what makes me sore at myself*is I am beginning to. like the stuff.

In America everybody is trying to get in the Pictures and over in all these Countries everybody is trying to make them. It will get so after awhile that everybody will make their own. Movies is getting kinder like Home Brew. You get you a little Movie Camera and a recipe and you just sit home and look and drink. Russia has.a Picture called “Patump- kin,” or something like that, picturing a historical episode in its history and it is one of the best Pictures I ever saw. They claim it is propoganda, but I-don’t know what it’s propoganda for unless it’s to show you how'a real picture should be made. : There is another American over here now, too, Mellon, of Pittsburgh..

They communicate with One an- other by their feet. In talking they do not touch one another, but deliver their message by a nimble movement of their feet, which we would call a kind of dance. The method the scientist used in his re- search is as interesting almost as the dis- covery itself. The doctor first built several hives entirely of glass, so that he could see exactly what was going on in them. He made small doors to these hives in order to let the bees in and out as he wished. He placed the hives on one side of his garden, on the opposite side of which was a small patch of clover in bloom. Then, between the hives and the clover patch, he built a screen maze, or labyrinth, a place full of intricate passage- ways which covered the entire garden. This’ done he lifted up a small door of one of the hives, letting one bee out.. With some very bright red coloring material he painted a red cross upon the back of this bee, so that he would be able to distinguish it from the rest. He then released. the marked bee to travel through the network of passages in search of food. It went on its journey, baf- fled at- times by inclosures and blind alleys. but it kept on and on, retracing its steps time. after time, until it finally succeeded in reaching the clover patch at the corner of the garden. After it had gathered a load of nectar it flew quickly back through the elaborate channels to the glass hives, where Dr. Frisch opened the little door and let the wanderer in. The scientist kept his eye on the marked bee in the glass hive by means of a large magnifying glass resembling a reading glass. It was then that the entomologist received the.surprise of his life. The bee with the red cross moved its feet and wings up and down in a peculiar rhythmic fashion and no sooner had it made this movement than all the other bees around the same antics. Shortly afterward Dr. Frisch opened the hive. The bee with the brilliant red cross on its back came out, followed by a host of other workers. The marked bee, continuing to lead the way, took the other bees to the clover patch without amy difficulty. And from that time on all the bees could traverse the intricate maze without going into a blind alley or losing any time. Through further observation, Dr. Frisch learned that bees have different movements and act in differ- ent ways, according to the story théy wish to tell. When angry, for instance, they move in a peculiar zigzag fashion. Still further study and observation re- vealed that the bee does not work all the time, as was previously believed, but takes time for rest and play. So the bee, although it does not realize’ that ‘‘all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.’’ instinctively carries out that idea. Nevertheless, when it works, it works with all its might. Only in war times do humans come near approach- ing the strenuous activities of the bee. The bee often works both day and night, gathering the pollen and nectar during the daytime and helping to fan the nectar with its wings during the night, to make the sweet fluid thicker by evaporation. One good authority says that it takes 20,000 bees to make a single pound of honey. It also takes five pounds of the sweet and precious nectar from the flowers to make one pound of honey. So, although the bee does not always work, in accordance with the latest scien- tific investigations, the phrase, “busy as a bee,” still retains its full significance.—Ruby Denton, in Our Dumb Animals.. it went through exactly PERFECT DESCRIPTION.

We hurried over to Jersey an audience with the old lady and besought her for the privilege of photographing her dog, blending the prayer with subtle ex- pressions of doubt as to his qualifications in comparison with Tatters, then appearing in the comic supplement. She evinced immense interest at once, pro- duced the dog, who was really almost Tatters’ peer, and then conducted us to the roof, where she posed the little animal for several pic- tures, in each of which Hetty Green was, of course, the most prominent figure.

My the day previous had won, and he was in a quiver. When I had oracularly given my pre- diction for that day, he stammered: tip of “Could you take a seat and watch the shop a minute while I skip over to the pool room and get 'a bet down?”’ I was reading the paper a few minutes later, when a man entered. I did not look up until he grumbled: ‘‘Here, give me a quick shave! I want to catch that 9:15.’’ I instantly recognized Col. Robert G. Inger- soll, who I knew had lectured in the town the night before. I leaped forward, grabbed my cup and flew for hot water. I enveloped Inger- soll in the appropriate lingerie and began lathering him as I watched the clock and the shop door. The operation of lathering re- quires little time, but I prolonged it until his lower jaw looked like the foot of Niagara Falls in winter. Of course, my audacity was unequal to any attempt to shave the great orator. I began to strop a razor with slow strokes that must have driven him frantic while the clock speeded up to double quick and the accursed barber remained aloof. When the apostle ofi free speech ginning to mutter and writhe in the chair, I ladied out another ridge of lather below his expressive eyes and tiptoed up the _ back stairs to my ‘faithful train, which bore me away to New York.

The original filibusters of William Walker had an allegiance for their chief which was not always shared by later arrivals. In the last gloomy days of Walker’s republic of Nicaragua, when his force was hemmed in at Rivas by the allied armies of Central America, Walker's chiefest enemy, President Mora of Costa Rica, hit upon the effective plan of promising amnesty to any Walker man who would desert, with free passport out of Central America. So many of the newcomers took advantage of the offer that the morale of the army was seriously im- paired and Walker finajly announced that any one who desired to leave his service might do so, openly. La Falange Americana -—the American Phalanx—was drawn up and the quitters ordered to stand out, Says Scroggs: “Only five men availed themselves of this opportunity and as they left the town they were hissed and hooted as long as they were in hearing. The courage of one of these failed him and he turned back, but Walker compelled him to go on.”’ From Louis Jack Rogers, the illustrator, comes the tale of a meeting of his father, Col. W. K. .Rogers, Walker’s commissary- general, with an old man on the streets of Oakland, a half century after Walker sur- rendered to Commander Davis, U. S. N. Col. Rogers was hobbling along, with the aid of his heavy cane, when he noticed that another oldster on the opposite sidewalk was staring at him intently. The other old man crossed over and called Col. Rogers by name: ‘I’m surely glad to meet you again, colonel, after all these years,’’ he said. ‘“‘Why, ‘you remember me. Of course you do! I was in Rivas with you in ’57, just before Walker surrendered to the Costa Ricans!”’ Col. Rogers stared hard at him for a moment, casting back over the half century. Suddenly he emitted a roar that fairly shook the cupola on Oakland city hall, deserter!” You're one “Why, you blankety-blanked- he bellowed. ‘‘Remember you! of the illegitimates that hadn’t the guts to stick to us when we were up against it!

Rogers brandishing his cane and roaring epithets.

It ig said to compare favor- ably with the ordinary article. In South America we find a milk tree, and a tree that grows in Sumatra is known as the vegetable tallow tree. Probably the Eskimos would like to get this to grow in the Arctic regions, for the early Arctic ex- plorers had a task to keep these people from devouring all their candles as dessert after meals. Excellent candles are made from the berries of another tree which grows in South Africa and the Azores. CHAIN STORES. According to an estimate made by Will- iam W.

Not all over the fence or over the grandstand—nor into the grand- stand—-but into the great maw of expense. That is the number required each ball game ‘to keep the ball rolling’’ as it were. The most popular of all American sports takes its toll. Each time that a team lines up against the Nats out at Griffith’s park, four dozen balls are handed “Mr. Umps”’ who looks them over, passes on them critically, rolls them. a bit in the dirt and takes them with him to the field.

For if there goes a great foul back into the galleries—then ball number one is gone— if there flies another back—then ball number two is gone—and so on. Sometimes a pitcher is slightly critical of a ball—and here is a story in itself. Base- ball pitchers have a ‘feel’ for a baseball. In this respect pitchers are not unlike automo- bile drivers. There is a certain ‘‘feel’’ about an automobile to every driver. If one has driven a car for a long time—a particular car—he can tell, with his hand at the wheel and his foot on the accelerator, just what that car is doing; he can tell whether it is taking gas properly; whether it is develop- ing full power or not on its ‘feed,’ and an A WAY, now and then, a pitcher ‘‘re- nigs ‘on a ball and turns it back to the umpire with the request that he look it over —that it does not quite satisfy him. The result is, in most instances, another ball is handed out. So also, a batter now and then registers an objection against a ball. With a big fast ‘train’? shooting them over the plate and the score quite close, it is not an uncommon thing for a fly speck of dirt on a ball to look like a patch of ink. The Batter, in a case of this kind, calls the attention of the um- pire to the fact that the ball appears dirty to him—too dirty to be seen for a good clout-— with the consequent result oftentimes of a new ball being put into play. The above is not written to show up the ‘“‘kicks’’ on a team—only to show what be- comes of baseballs. Four dozen seems io be a large number to be gotten away with in one game—and possibly not all are in every game—but those are the figures given as the average. And as four dozen are thrown out every game something has to happen to them—and this is what does. Ball games are, therefore, the delight of [ . mw iki ‘.

I OA he STUART jntijs The club don’t mind the cost when “Goose” Goslin knocks one over the fence. little boys and fans in more than one way— particularly if it is a close and good game. There is always a chance for a souvenir; and oftentimes fans have been known to risk their lives in order to claim one of the pel- lets. In such cases a straw hat amounts to nothing if not a bucket in which to coral the flying sphere. Perhaps the force of the ball is miscalculated—but what of that—a per- fectly good baseba!l in a perfectly good home game, fondled by the hands of a favorite pitcher is worth something, is it not? New balls are used also in practice by the team. For this fete a dozen balls are rolled out by the umpire. This makes another dozen added to the four already. The score mounts; it is not yet through mounting, either. These balls are shot around from base to base in the warming up process inci- dent to every game. They are handed the pitchers to warm up with and are generally put into use throughout the entire practice period. Of course they are not fit for a game-——none but the unused go there. They find their way back to the umpire after the practice period is up and go into the general discard sooner or later, which will be touch- ed on a little further along in this article. * * * ET’S see!

But away from home the club “rolls its own’”’ across the sandlot and around the grass green edges. Seven dozen then in all. Four in a game, one in practice before the home game is called and two before the guns open on for- eign territory. Now for a little arithmetic. Seventy-seven games are played at home, 77 games are played away from home. _ Five dozen balls are used in every game at home; two dozen balls are used in every game away from home. Five times 77 is 380; two times 77 is 154—a total of 534. Five hun- dred and thirty-four dozen balls a year— that is the average of the Washington base- ball club!. Wouldn’t the sand lotters like to have them? Well, as a matter of fact they do get them —the most of them. For it has been the policy of the club in the past to pass out the used balls to the various boys’ clubs through- out the city and the various government in- stitutions that have teams. For instance, the boys at Waiter Reed receive balls and the teams at St. Elizabeth’s. It is a big, fine generous spirit that prompts this dispensa- tion of balls. It enables teams to carry on in the sport that might be handicapped other- wise for a sufficient number of the spheroids to club about. Needless to say the teams themselves appreciate the gifts and make the most of them. And for return—if return is i —v" Goose is shown (left) flailing one out. Walter Johnson (right) autographs more baseballs than any Uman in the big leagues. He is shown here autographing a few considered other than good will—which is not, it can be founad—in the case of the vyoungsters—in recruits to the professional game from the sandlots, year after year. Even baseball, like other things, has its own compensations. Every balf that goes into play at Griffith's park has stamped on its horsehide covering the name “‘B. B. Johnson,” president of the American league. It is so required and no ball is permitted to go into ptay unless it has that potentate’s name inscribed some- where on its periphery. Whether that is to advertise Mr. Johnson or not the writer could not learn.’ No doubt it is required as a ‘‘safety first’’ that go to make a game. Mir. name on each ball stamps it as a league ball. No “‘ifs’’ and ‘‘ands”’ character by the players. If the umpire puts it into play it goes: and if thrown out it is thrown out on other grounds than those of a nonofficial league ball. The balls used by the Washington team are purchased by the club in lots of 50 dozen. The reason given for their purchase in such small units ig the closeness of the city to the source of supply. Cities farther than Wash- ington from Philadelphia buy in larger quan- tities—150 dozen and up. The umpire has sole jurisdiction over balls.

Asked for the reason, Eddie replied: ‘“‘One is the number of balls that pass from the club to the public as the season progresses. It used to be that only now and then we lost a ball through ‘hitting concrete’ or going into the stands. Now it is almost to be counted on.” The truth of this will be observed by those who attend a ball game. The public seems to think that évery ball that comes its way is intended by the club as a gracious gift to it. Not so; it is only the public's idea. Not $0 long ago this was demonstrated out at the clubhouse and the club was ‘doped’ “chinchy’’ because of the balls that fell into the hands of the kids. The basis of the public's attitude is that a4 baseball club is practically public property. What's “her’n’s mine and what's mine's her’n,”’ is the mental state of the bleacherite. This, of course, can mean but one thing to the ball club—more expense. Too, possibly, the cost of balls is slightl) greater today than seven years ago, though nothing was said about that. Suffice only to sav that seven years ago the average yearly output for baseballs by the Washington club was considerably under $190,000. The great ball time for fans, however, and for individual team admirers is at the time of a pennant series. Let the team win a pennant and the players are followed all over the lot by autographic bugs. This is the big time for “copping’’ a ball. And, perhaps here started the practice among the fans of appropriating as their own every ball that comes their way. Among the most popular of those whose signatures were sought after the Washington world series ware those of Walter Johnson. the like of whom fans say they will never see again, and ‘“‘Bucky’’ Harris, the vouthful Napoleon of baseball. Other members of the team are gods to their own heroes, bu! ‘Bucky’ and the ‘‘Big Train’ never fail to wind up a season without writer's cramp. The quéstion of a return to ‘‘normalcy’’ in the matter of baseballs for the club seems remote. In fact, if appearances at a game amount to anything the cost of baseballs to the club—and this applies to others as well as the Washington club—is going to keep on mounting. Some day. it might not be too much to say, the public—that, is the baseball portion of it—is going to demand as its price for the game every ball that is used. It fs very near so now. : As for the clubs? Well, ‘they seem to he bowing to the inevitable, and as in the case of the Washington club. the more gracefully that it is done, the better for them. The public must be served. That is a law thai can not be gotten away from these days. It is becoming as unaitered and fixed jn sports as the one other ‘“‘unwritten law” isin human social relations.

But until just recently one very important thing has been lacking. There were plenty of little color charts and fancy toothpicks and suspicious picture puzzles to pick out the child of low mentality. But when it came to “spotting’’ the scintillating geniuses of the future, while still those geniuses were wear- ing bibs and shaking rattles, the learned child psychologists have been a trifle backward. This oversight has at last been attended to. Today, by a few simple tests which any parent or even any partially educated nurse girl can apply in ten minutes, it is easy to determine whether little Johnny will set the world on fire as a genius or brighten the cor- ner where he happens to grow up as a merely average citizen. ' Thanks for this tremendous advance in the knowledge of the child is due to a numerous band of eminent Americans, men and women. who have united themselves into the ‘League for Fostering Genius.'’ They apply the tests to various children, take the geniuses under their protection and then go ahead to nurture them into perfect self-expression by en- couragement and understanding. Edwin Markham, the poet; Mrs Luther Burbank, widow of the great naturalist: Ed- win Franko Goldman, the band leader and “composer; Dr. Francis Snow, magazine edi- tor; George Gray Barnard, the sculptor; Mrs. Winifred Sackville Stoner, mother of the famous child prodigy, and forty others are the founding patrons of the league. “The time to discover genius,” says ‘Mother’ Stoner, ‘“‘is between birth and 5 years. The nearer the cradle the better. -“In five minutes I can tell you whether a child is a genius or not. First, I give it the stick test. I pass a smooth stick to a child of a year or under. If he curls his little hand about it but lets go fairly easily when I pull the stick away he is just an average child. If he refuses to touch it at all, he is a fool or moron, But if he winds his fingers about it tightly and refuses to let go, then he’ is a genius. He has the strength of will and the sinisleness of purpose, which always go with extraordinary faculties. ‘But I have still other tests. piaho, a habe of two at my side. I play the Octave, then notes specially chosen. The ordinary child can distinguish between high and low C. + ference between any musica] notes, but the * incipient musical genius will be able to tell ' tow C from low D, and every other note apart, with no trouble at all. Mozart composed ' Bome of his best music at 10 and at 2 he knew all the notes apart. ™ “Last of all, I apply the rhythm tests. _ These are very important tests because having a sense of rhythm is like having a sense of “Balance. It is very necessary to the full de- 1% elopment of the mind and one without it oo. & little chance of becoming a genius. Bs The world moves by rhythmic motion.

Let's work our livers—make life worth while, Smiling and smiling a big, big smile. “If the infant turns a dull ear to the read- ing and no particular emotion breaks Over his features—he's just an ordinary child, or perhaps even below par mentally. But if he immediately breaks into high, poetic glee and claps his little hands, while his infantile eyes glisten with pure pleasure—why, he is a genius and positively sure to become a poet or painter or musician or something which requires a high sense of rhythm.”’ So far so good, but those of us who are neither experts nor geniuses ourselves may wonder about a few points. For instance, do these tests determine all the kinds /of genius there are? Poetry—painting—muasaie, certainly. But how about pole vaulting, prize PQ)USTRPSVY SMA AE Sen ARRAN AE re {SUEY Apes nroMpO tN aE fighting, ‘‘sheiking,’’ ‘‘vamping,’’ costume wearing and trick juggling? How are the infantile geniuses of these types to be deter- mined? One can easily picture ‘‘Mother”’ Stoner giving the tests. At one side will be the steadily mounting pile of little morons just “ordinary” children. To the other side, the sparse mound of scintillating geniuses who ‘have passed the stick test. When it comes to the music test of course the future Caruso will amble by, very easily. But how about the future Jack Dempseys and Rudolph Valentinos? As ‘‘Mother’’ Stoner explains, the four great arts would be sifted out early, but aren't these merely the beginning of the arts? ‘*Mother’” Stoner explains that that thing is art which seizes, with compelling attention, the great multi- tude and sends them off into-transports of esthetic upliftment. Very well, then. Who seizes the multitude and sends it off into up- liftment quicker than Ruth? Or Jack Dempsey? Or Theda Bara? Or Bobby Jones? Or Helen Wills? The art of ‘vamping,’’ nose punching, the master touch at golf or tennis are appreciated by many more people than the best sonata Beethoven ever wrote. Charles Ponzi once made his million overnight, and it is a diffi- cult art to make a million overnight, and an art much esteemed, from Oshkosh to New York. And do Edwin Markham = and ‘‘Mother”’ Stoner expect to determine such a genius by the stick or jinglelay or musical tests? Now a born vamp, at one year, might take a tight hold on that stick, but at the high C test she would probably merely bellow and try to pick up the piano. Or steal the jingle- lay book, being a vamp and a gold digger. A failure in the infantile genius to feel rap- ture at ‘‘Mother’”’ Stoner’s poetry or at Edwin Markham’s might not really mean g stupid moron but rather a keen young gold digger saving all her faculties for the acquisition of future platinum bracelets. None of these judges of genius dare to deny that an ability to play tennis magnifi- cently well constitutes true genius. And they furthermore admit that many athletic geni- uses have been lost to the world through early neglect and lack of recognition.’ Surely the selection of ,the physical genius, very early in life, is extremely important. But how? ‘‘Nothing easier,”’ explains ‘‘Mother’”’ Ston- er. Then she whispers: ‘You pick the future tennis champions by their perfectly horrid dispositions. When little Edna scoops up all the tennis balls of all the children on the court and carries them off home and re- fuses to play, why, just watch that child! Humor her every whim. Let her sulk while everybody is waiting to see her play, for when she grows up she will surely be a great tennis champion!”’ ‘‘Mother”’ Stoner feels that, of course, the mental is far more important, but she agrees with some of the other authorities in the league that her specific tests might some- times not pick out the.wphysical genius. They're to be chosen other ways. Sometimes, even, they may be selected by the knowinx eye of the child culturist as he merely ‘‘sizes up” an incipient genius. The future physical genius, ‘‘Mother”’ Stoner has been made to agree, is gener- ally far handsomer and livelier than the future ‘mental genius. Dr. Samuel Johnson was near sighted and thick lipped and pimply. But he was the great lexicographer.

He will just have passed the stick test and the high C test and the jingle- lav test. He's a genius all right, but of what sort? CASHING IN ON TIDINESS ini =~ Fred Kelly, in the Nation‘s Business Mag- azine, tells this story of a man who has made a fortune in the fireplace business—building fireplaces and hearths, selling mantels and fireplace fixtures—and whose success has been due, he thinks, to a Surprising reason. “When his men go into a home and work on a fireplace,’’ says Kelly. ‘‘they never make much muss. What little they do make, they clean up before leaving in the evening, even if they're to be back on the job the next morning, They carry rolls of paper with them and spread it over every inch of carpet they are likely to walk on. ‘They make a sort of tent near the fireplace, so prevent dust from scattering. If there are book- shelves in the same room, they carefully tuck paper all about them and never a particle of dust ever reaches the books. “Now, the head of this outfit is frank to say that his work is probably no more skilled and his prices no ‘lower than one can obtain at any of a half dozen other places in the same city. But he does as much business as any three competitors. ‘He never advertises that he is cleaner than other fireplace builders. That would be fatal, because it would call his compet- itors’ attention to the secret of his success and they might take the hint to do likewise. “But people who employ this man do not object to seeing his mechanics come again. They haven't that dread of building a fire- - place that the usual mussy experience justi- fies one in feeling. prospered. ‘‘1’l] venture to say that thousands of men, painters, paperhangers, carpenters, construc- tion men of all Kinds. might turn their ledgar from failure to success by this simple plan of making themselves more welcome by being willing to clean up their own litter.’ Hence this firm has FEEDING THE TEETH al The first teath are said to start by about the fourth month of prenatal life. Normally, by the time a baby is born these first teeth have grown to the point where the crowns of the teeth are practicaily finished, even to the enamel. It is very important to the health of the first teeth that the enamel! should be strong that the tissue of the crown of the tooth should be resistant to decay, for the roots of these first teeth are still unfinished when the baby is born and remain unfinished unti: a year or a year and a half after the crowns have come through the gums, or, as we say commonly, ‘“‘the teeth have been cut.’’ This fact is worth consideration, for a child begins to use its teeth long before they are finished. If the crowns of the teeth are poorly built and begin to decay before the roots are com- pleted, unless that decay is checked it may so damage the root itself as to interfere permanently with its completion, This may in turn mean an interference with the normal development of the jaw-bone and finally with the placing of the second teeth. If first teeth are poorly built and ‘begin to decay éarly, then .parents should do their utmost to secure good dental care for their child to check the injury, for the welfare of the second teeth may be threatened. They should also do their best to try to build up better materials into the part of the second teeth remaining to be come tiee. e The first step to take in reforming the teeth of the American people, and it will be a re-forming in its most literal sense, will be to bring about a few simple but funda- mental and far-reaching changes in: the daily meals and health habits of American families. The most essential part of. this change will be in the increased ase of all members of a family of milk, green vegetables, fruits, and a moderate dose of cod-liver oil for all hands around on each day, when for one reason or another it has been impossible to spend con- siderable time out-of-doors in the sunshine. Use milk because it contains more calcium and phosphorus than any of our common foods, and these are the two materials most abundantly used for building bony tissues; green vegetables not only because they sup- plement the diet in calcium but because they are rich-in iron as well, and iron also plays > an important. part in ‘building healthy bony tissues; fruits because vitamin C is ong of the tools needed to aid in building healthy teeth; cod-liver oil or sunlight or both because the use of calcium in building tissues—calcifica- tion as it is called—does not occur norma!ly in the absence of either direct sunlight or its food equivalent. Cod-liver oil is the richest of these food equivalents of sunshine. Green vegetables also contain some of this equivalent. Such foods may be spoken of as ‘activated foods, or they are also said to con- tain vitamin D.—From the Delineator, ‘I claim this baby is a born poet,’ Edwin Markham may say. “Just see how he gooed when I read him one of my little things.’’ “T claim that child is a born composer.” Mr. Goldman will flash back. ‘“‘Why, he ac- tually beat time with his lollypop when I whistled my latest march.’ ‘T claim he isa pole vaulter.’ “IT claim he will be the greatest financier the country ever knew.”’ “T claim And how will it be decided? Very easily, as “‘Mother’’ Stoner and all her coadjutors hasten to explain together: ‘We'll just keep on arguing impolitely, try+ ing to prove that the child is a pole vaulter or a poet. In arguing, we'll let the child alone: And so his genius will develop into whatever it is, a genius for sheiking or vamping or poetizing, for the very top notch geniuses of the world have come from being left entirely alone.”’ Further, the child that has successfully passed the tests for genius must be permitted full self-expression. Of course, the parents who bring up the unreproved genius face fifteen years at least of overturned furniture, broken mirrors. noisy houses, smashed windows, trouble with the neighbors and even with the police. This is truer, moreover, of the physical genius than of the mental. But isn’t it worth a life of worry to give a genius to the world? (Copyright, 1928. br Johnson Features, Inc.) Kanaka Engineering. By J. D. NEWSOME. In bygone days the natives of New Cale- donia displayed an astonishing knowledge of engineering. Because the valleys where they lived were too narrow to support a growing population, they carved the sides of the hills into great terraces. These were carefully graded s0 that mountain streams could be made to flow smoothly along each terrace and down to the next in zigzags each half a mile or more long. If there was no spring on the hillside they brought water from neighboring slopes along viaducts made of hollowed-out tree- trunks. They gaged levels with a nicety modern engineers might envy. Few of these terraced hillsides are cultj- vated today. The white man has changed all that. The native population is decreasing, the survivors are apathetic and indolent; they work on plantations or cattle ranchés, and on Sundays they get drunk when they are not attending church.— From Adventure Magazine. HE COLORS TREES TO ORDER. Magical experiments have been made re- cently by a scientist in the Maine woods, who has been coloring trees with indelible dyes. By means of a new process he can transform an ordinary beech tree into ‘“‘rosewood,” says Popular Science Monthly, and birch, into ‘‘mahogany,’’ which are said to defy detection by expert lumbermen and furniture manu- facturers. The coloring matter saturates the trees from the outer surfaces to the hearts of the trunks. In the process, holes are bored at the base of the trunk, and these serve as reser- voirs for the dyes.

ARTHUR Late of the British Army and Long the Trusted Friend and Adviser of Sir Hari Singh. CHAPTER XII HE suit that eventually revealed 5ir iy Hari Singh as the Oriental prince who had been brazenly blackmailed out of a fortune was brought against the Midland Bank by the real husband of Mrs. Maude Robinson, the woman whose beauty had been used to bait the blackmail trap. Robinson charged that the bank had been guilty of gross carelessness in paying the swindling imposter who falsely called him- gelf Maude Robinson’s husband the amount of the check made out to him. He claimed that the check had been drawh to him as damages for the loss of his wife's affections through her affair with the mysterious ‘‘Mr. A” and that he and he alone was entitled to every penny of it. The sum and substance of his demands was that the Midland Bank should pay him forthwith the sum of 150,- 000 pounds ($750,000). The public gaspe€ at the idea that anybody should have been so éasily blackmailed out of this sum and became all the more eager to find out.the identity of “Mr. A.” BAe i already explained, the effort to hide Sir Hari Singh under this not very deceptive cam- oufiage was not at all successful. Every- body soon knew that he was the wealthy East Indian who had been victimized by the blackmailers—and followed the trial of Rob- inson’s suit with all the xeener interest. The star witness for the defense was none other than Newton, confessed conspirator, who now had his long awaited revenge by placing all of the blame for the conspiracy that he could upon my shoulders. The fact that the man was a thief, a conscienceless extortioner and in the language of Lord Halsbury “ogg ofthe biggest scoundrels’’ did not seem to lessen the willingness of the court to believe all he said on the witness stand. Iam told he was paid thousands of pounds for his testimony and assured of im- munity from prosecution. I was amazed when I learned that I was being’ held up to public contumely as the archcriminal in this plot, rather than a vic- tim of it. Here is how the case built upon Newton’s testimony was described by coun- sel. ‘‘A more ideal subject than Sir Hari Singh for blackmail would be difficult to find. Young and impulsive, he was fond of the society of ladies. That would make him easy to catch. He was fabulously rich and that would make him worth catching. Fi- nally his position was such that he thought that any breath of scandal against his name ‘with any white woman would be absolutely ruinous to him. That made him easier to eatch, and when caught, to bleed white. “The rajah and his secretary had a liaison with Mrs. Robinson and Mrs. Bevan. They were surprised with the ladies in a Paris hotel by Newton, who posed as the husband of Mrs. Robinson. The evening of that day, Newton and Arthur and the two women re- turned to London, and on December 30 there was a meeting at Newton's apartments at- tended by Newton, Arthur and Hobbs. ATr- thur put on the table two checks for 150,000 pounds ($750,000) each. “One of the checks was to be cashed at ence. They agreed to divide 125,000 pounds hetween themselves and to give 25,000 nounds to the real Robinson. Mrs. Robin- son and Mrs. Bevan who were thoroughly in- formed of the blackmail scheme were the ‘tools’ of the archcriminals. It was repre- sented to Robinson and his wife that this 25,000 pounds was the full amount paid by the rajah as damages. The reason the crim- inals had to wait to cash the second 150,000 pound check was that time had to be given the rajah to transfer funds from India to cover it. Hobbs had written a release on the legal stationery of the Appleton office which was sent to Sir Hari Singh on January 38 that began as follows: ‘*We are instructed by our client, Mr. Robinson, to inform you that he has now definitely abandoned all idea of legal pro- ceedings against his wife concerning you as corespondent, in consideration of the agreed sum.’ ”’ Newton's story went on then to the effect that Hobbs had presented the first check en- dorsed ‘“‘C. Robinson’’ at the Midland Bank, had drawn 130,000 pounds in notes, and hurried over to Paris where Newton, Hobbs and Arthur received 40,000 pounds each. It was further alleged that the plot to catch the rajah with Mrs. Robinson had been hatched right after the victory ball and that the trap was on the verge of being sprung at Mrs. Robinson’s apartments in Chapel street on several occasions. ‘I was supposed to have originally proposed and planned the blackmail scheme and to have supplied the brains for its accomplishment throughout. My feelings as this distorted story was unfolded to a gasping world may more easily be imagined than described. I was. simply dumfounded, and the more so as it was pointed out that I was an Irishman from whom, the court indicated with fine im- partiality, anything bad might be expected. I consulted a friend connected with the British authorities—in facta political secret agent. I diclosed to him that I was the anonymous king-devil being blackguarded in ' the “Mr. A.”’ case and asked him what he ; thought I should do, under the circumstances. Should I go to England oy remain silent? J had not been able to grasp exactly what the “eraye reasons of state’ which enforced all the official secrecy might be and in fact I have never been able to determine since. My friend advised me to remain quiet while he learned the wishes of the British authort- ties. ‘Two days later he informed me that should the British. authorities require my prenenee 1 [ would be notified; otherwise, it was re- quested that I should remain silent. I natur- ally followed this ad- vice, The following Friday this man came to me with the information’ that a warrant had been issued for my arrest. He strongly advised me to leave France, under- taking to arrange the Spanish passport for- malities, as in Spain, owing to the absence of an extradition treaty, I would be safe. Though this advice was probably well meant, | was sus- picious and refused to lake it. On the following Sun- day I saw an almost un- recognizable photo- graph of myself in uni- form in one of the Lon- don papers with a state- ment — still concealing my name—to the effect that a warrant ltad been issued for my arrest. Upon seeing this my in- dignation knew no bounds. I wrote a let- ter to the first secre- tary of the British em- bassy stating that I was the “‘A. D. C.”’ in ques- tion and that on the morrow either I or my would call at the embassy offices. It being Sunday | went to fhe embassy and delivered the letter personally. That evening while discussing the matter with a British friend he advised me, owing to the apparently political importance at- Just before lawyer ‘tached to the case that I should as a matter of loyalty to the empire consult the embassy lawyers before revealing the whole affair to my own attorneys. I followed my friend's suggestion and was informed by embass} counsel that I was free to act as I saw fit. This was on Monday morning. I then pro- ceeded to the offices of my French lawyer whom I found occupied. I made an appoint- ment for two o’clock in the afternoon and then left to have luncheon. At the restau- rant I telephoned to a friend to join me and when I got him on the wire he informed me that a secretary from the British embassy, a member of the consular staff and a Frencn policeman were then in his office inquiring for me I replied I would go there imme- diately. When I entered.the office and identified myself the embassy secretary asked the French agent to arrest me. This the agent indignantly refused to do on the ground that the papers in his possession did not call for any such action. I asked to see the papers. They consisted of a formal demand from the embassy to the surete attached to which was a passport photo of mine, It requested that, on the responsibility of the embassy, my ar- rest should be effected. The discussion became an argument and the argument a heated dispute, and I finally suggested in desperation that we should ad- journ to the surete close by. By that time it was two o'clock, the hour of my appoint- ment with my lawyer. I asked that the sec- retary of the embassy should phone my at- torney and explain what had happened, but he refused to do so. The French agent let the cat out of the baz when he told me 1 would have avoided causing him all this trouble if I had only gone to the embassy offices as I had intended. That meant that the’ British authorities, considering that the embassy property was British soil, would have arrested me there and sent me to England without further for- mality. At the office of the surete the pro- fect of police emphasized the statement of his agent that the embassy papers gave the French police no right to deprive any indi- vidual of his liberty. I had no objection to being arrested, providing I was protected in my right of counsel, so I remained at the Surete to see how things would develop. 1 was rapidly becoming an “international inci- dent." I told the secretary of the embassy that I was prepared to waive extradition rights and to go to London that evening. By this time, the case having gotten noised abroad, apparently the entire journalistic staffs of the numerous Parisian newspapers and British news agencies had collected at the surete. Who were journalists, who were police, who was the prisoner. nobody seemed to know. However, feeling all around seemed very friendly and the weather being cold we adjourned to a neighboring cafe, where after the consumption of much hot rum all worries such as embassy officials and arrest were soon dispelled. Toward seven o'clock the prefect of police requested my presence in his office. “Capt. Arthur,” he said, ‘I hope you thor- oughly understand that you are not under arrest,’’ “I replied that as I had no objection in any way to my arrest I did not wish to: disoblige the embassy and that any action he saw fit to take would meet with my approval. He said then he would act upon the embassy's ‘request and suggested that I return to my rooms which were close by and come to his office the following morning. He communicated this by phone to the embassy but the officials there strongly op- posed my returning to my: rooms, insisting that I rematn tm police custody. This ua- necessary demand upset the prefect once more. He apologized to me, said it was now too late for the depot and the only accom- the royal crown was placed on Sir Hari Singh’s head in accordance with the an- cient customs of Kashmir. of spun gold and a modation available for that night was the distinctly uncomfortable local cells of the Grand Palais in the Champs Elysee. All of this was conveyed in the manner of a cour- teous hotel proprietor regretting that he could not provide a guest with the bridal suite. Apologies were most certainly in order as | learned later, for the prefect of police proved to be no bad judge of prison accommodations. The police agent who had been with me all day, and who by now regarded me as an old and dear friend, was handed the neces- sary papers and told to effect my arrest. He and I then proceeded to dinner. We fin- ished our repast about midnight and he con- ducted me,to the neighboring police station, where, having been deprived of my tie and boot laces,.I was shut up in a sort of cage With a stone floor and with water running down the walls. It was December and bit- terly cold, and this place resembled nothing sO much as an icehouse. After a few hours there the good effects of the hot rum disap- peared and until the following morning when my friend, the police agent, came to rescue me, I passed a pretty miserable time. Before he came I received visits from all the policemen attached to that particular station. They came to the bars of my cage and held up my photo. I felt somewhat like an animal in the zoo. I was rescued at 9 o'clock from this terrible den, shivering with the cold and furious with rage at treatment Which was so entirely unnecessary, a fact which the French police thoroughly realized. My first idea was to return to my rooms to have a bath and change. My guardian would not hear of it. He insisted that I should come with him and would listen to no argu- ments. | was immensely disturbed at this, but followed him meekly enough, wondering what was to happen next. We got into a taxi and five minutes’ drive brought us to a cafe and in we went. I was the guest of my police guardian, if you please, and he ordered for me a huge glass of steaming coffee with 50 per cent rum. After a few of these and a bit of breakfast we were ready for the day’s work. My benefactor then took me to my rooms, where I changed, had my bath and packed my grips, fully expecting to leave for London by the afternoon train. From my rooms we went back to the Surete, where we arrived about noon. There I found my lawyer waiting for me. Up to that time he had known none of the details of the case beyond what had been printed in the morning papers. Also waiting me there | found a friend from London who had come over especially to insist that I should fight extradition, stating that the comments, particularly of the presiding judge during the Midland Bank suit, had been so prejudicial to me in the eves of the British yublic | was already condemned. By this advice, coupled with the vindictive attitude that had been shown, I decided to refuse for the present at least to return voluntarily to England. My lawyer said this would give him time to go into the matter thoroughly and’ see that my interests were protected. When I was asked finally whether, I con- sented or refused extradition and if I refused, on what grounds I based my refusal, I gave the first reasonable answer that came into my head. I said I was a subject of the Irish Free State. I was then taken to the central depot of the Palais de Justice. There my lawyer and his partner joined me in the after- noon. The case having been gone into. roughly, I appeared before the procureur of the republic on the following and on many subsequent days. ° ‘As a prisoner waiting possible extradition, I was incarcerated in the depot adjoining the old Conciergeri. It is impossible to imagine a more melancholy, or less sanitary. place than this old prison fortress that has played .such a great part in the history of France. Here it»was that Marie Antoinette spent her last days before being carted to the guillo- ‘tine and again later the same old cobble- stones resounded under the heavy pacing of ‘Robespierre before the guards came and dragged him to the scaffold. The cell-1 oc- ‘pursued by the Epglish.autho The rajah, seated under a canopy, is wearing robes turban that is thickly encrusted with jewels. cupied was situated below the level of the Seine and was posi- tively black with age and filth. One thing that made life a little bearable was the friendly attitude of the French guards. Anything that could be done for me was done, although the regulations did not permit of much. My two months here were fully occupied, my law- vers coming daily as new fea: tures arose through fresh de. mands from the British gov: ernment. I underwent some ten lengthy cross-examinations by the procureur of the repub- lic which resulted in the French government refusing to honor the demand for my ex- tradition. Then in accordance With my request that I should be given a trial and a chance for vindication unhampered by prejudice and “grave reasons of state,’’ a case was opened against me in the French courts. I was transferred to the Mai- son d’Arret de la Sante, some 20 minutes distant by taxi from the palais de justice. Here conditions were much better. [I was given a large room 12 feet square to myself, with a Window on the whole of one side. This Was pleasant enough in summer, but in Winter the cold was almost unbearable. I was permitted to have food sent in from a neighboring restaurant and could purchase most any kind of literature I wished to read. Here I passed practically nine months, with visits at intervals to the palais de justice. This terrible delay which neither I nor my lawyers had foreseen was occasioned by the necessity of translating every word of the voluminous testimony in the British trials into French. Eventually, however, my case was really heard and 1 was vindicated and released. Meanwhile over in England the case of “Mr. A’’ had beén settled, I shall always feel more in accordance with those mysterious and bombastic ‘‘grave reasons of state’ than with vaunted British justice. A jury had de¢ided Robinson's suit against the Midland Bank for 150,000 pounds in the bank’s favor. It had answered the following set of ques- tions put to it by the presiding judge: Was there a scheme or conspiracy to catch “‘Mr. A’’ with Mrs. Robinson with a view to getting money from “Mr. A’’?— Yes. Was Robinson a party to any such scheme or conspiracy ?—No. Was Mrs. Robinson a party to any such scheme or conspiracy ?—No. Was ‘Mr. A" induced to part with two checks from fear or alarm?—Yes. Was ‘‘Mr. A’s’’ mind so unsettled by the circumstances of the discovery that his ac- tion in parting with the checks was not free and voluntary?—Yes. These answers were made a reason for not prosecuting Robinson, Mrs. Robinson and Mrs. Bevan as conspirators and -receiv- ers of some of the blackmail. Newton was let go scot free and paid handsomely for his services in turning king’s evidence. Hobbs, the lawyer’s solicitor, was placed on trial, convicted and was sentenced to two years’ hard. labor. This was by no means the sort of punishment that Hobbs, with his wide legal experience, expected. He -was pre- pared for seveu years and would not have been surprised ‘at ten. ‘‘My lord, I am an innocnt man,”’ he said just before the sentence was pronounced. “I hope. you will take into consideration that [ am the sole support of a wife and three. children."’ At the lugubrious outburst the court room audience burst into irrepressible giggles of laughter. Oddly enough, while Hobbs was begin- ning his prison term and I was being unjustly - = for tin in its diet than you or lI. Sir Hari Singh, who has succeeded his uncle, the late Sir Partab Singh, as Maharajah of Kashmir and Jammu. Singh was suffering little damage from the revelations brought by the trial of the case of “Mr. A.’ A few days’ frantic worry over the possible effect of the revelations on his political ambitions proved the only penalty he had to pay—aside from the 150,000 pounds ($750,000), which counted for little in his mind. He soon realized what the re- vealing of sis identity as the victim of Mrs. Robinson's wiles and the blackmailers’ -plot was not going to lessen his popularity with the people of his native land, nor make the British government withdraw its support of his royal ambitions. Unpleasant as it must have been to some of the government offi- cials to learn how scandalously the rajah had been behaving during his visit to Eu- rope, they were willing to overlook his con-: duct on account of his loyalty to the,.empire and his manifest ability to rule. A few months later Sir Hari’s uncle, Sir Partab Singh, died and left the throne of Kashmir and Jammu vacant. As a sign of his mourning for the departed ruler, Sir Hari promptly shaved off his hair and mustache and ordered all the men of the country to do likewise. Contrary to what he had expected months before there was not the slightest opposition to his succession to the throne. So before the old maharajah'’s body was fairly cold in death Sir Hari and his friends took charge of the government and prepared . . plates of solid silver. for the unbelievably magnificent ceremonies and festivities that were to mark his corona- tion. To the coronation were invited British In- dian officials by scores, all the native poten- tates and their courts, priests from all over India, sages and philosophers, dancing girls and Bayaderes by the hundreds. Golden- decked elephants went marching across the yellow plains of the Punjab and over the mountains for hundreds of miles to the peace-flowered vale of Kashmir. Indian princes by scores, decked out in all their pomp and trappings, went racing in their luxurious motors. A banquet was given to these guests on the eve of the coronation in a silken tent held up with pillars of solid silver. All were attired in their priceless state robes of rain- bow hue and jewels beyond count or imagi- nation. The princes were served on plates of gold studded with jewels—their staffs on Cannon salutes rever- berated among the mountains, fireworks lit up the peaceful Dhal and Shalimar at night. Sir Hari was dedicated to the services of his people by a priest who recited the Hindu scriptures while the new maharajah fed the holy fire with butter and sprinkled upon it water from the holy rivers of India. Hun- dreds of saffron-robed priests chanted con- tinually before the sacred fire under a canopy on which was displayed a picture of the god- dess of good fortune. And all about were the populace ranging from the pundits with their 500 servants to shawl makers come shivering from their paper windowed dolls’ houses. It was a season of bounty and rejoicing. Money and gifts were scattered among the crowds, food and sweetmeats were offered on every side. Sir Hari sat in a wire cage for 24 hours while he was anointed with the waters of all the rivers of his kingdom and touched with the furs of all its wild animals and the leaves and branches of its plants and trees. He swore to “protect the innocent cow and the learned sage’’ in a ritual first pronounced upon a ruler of Kashmir several centuries before Christ. The new maharajah has started his reign in a way that promises well for the happi- ness and prosperity of his subjects. One of his first official acts was to order large sums expended on the improvement of the coun- try’s roads and the establishment of schools and hospitals. He has ambitious plans for expanding the country’s industries and for making them even bigger money makers. By improving the roads and establishing a- system of modern hotels he also plans to at- tract to Kashmir thousands of tourists and to make the country a Mecca for sportsmen from ail over the world during the hunting season. In his interest in the welfare of his coun- try Sir Hari Singh is not neglecting his own comfort and convenience and in a number of the things he is doing to provide for his enjoyment of life may be seen the effects of his eventful stay in Europe. He has begun the construction of a $250,000 palace. The building has been designed by European architects and in its arrangement and fur- nishings it will combine Oriental magnif- icence with the most modern western luxur- ies and conveniences. Sir Hari has lost none of the fondness for jazz which he acquired in London and Paris. One of the first things he did after taking the throne was to dismiss: his native musi- cians and fill their places with an up-to-date jazz orchestra which he imported from Lon- don. The leader, by the way, is an Ameri- can. Later on, when the mahrajah’s new palace is completed he will increase the size of this orchestra to 345 pieces. To the strains of this band quite possibly Sir Hari will be dancing some day with fair skinned beau- ties from Europe, but I feel sure that Mrs. Maude Robinson will not be among the number. I certainly wish for Sir Hari Singh the greatest success as ruler of Kashmir and Jammu and I predict that he will have it if he is able to escape the intrigues that beset... every Indian ruler, no matter how just and — great and well beloved he may be. The maharajah as I have known him is a fair and square sportsman whose worst faults have been his vanity and his occasional ten- dency to be led astray by the advice of oily tongued courtiers. He is young and head- strong, but he is highly intelligent and genu- inelvy concerned for the welfare of his people. He should accomplish great things for them if he is spared for a long reign.

But the can-hunting goat cares no more What he is after is the. taste of the paste beneath the labels. As a matter of fact, the goat is one of the very cleanest feeders of the livestock world. He will not eat hay or straw that has ‘been underfoot nor kitchen scraps that have become the least bit tainted. What Billy and Nanny like the best is deli- cate foliage, though when hungry they will eat brush“of most any kind. Sheep are grass- eaters, consuming brush only when com- pelled by hunger to do so. If any grass at all is to be had they will leave the hazel, willow and other brushes entirely alone. But goats always prefer the green trees and shrub growth. And another interesting difference is that sheep never stand on the hind legs to eat, but a goat will do so, eating the foliage to a height of 6 ulter or more.

Place a large lump where the animal can get to it when he desires. Goats require drinking water only at dis- tant intervals, and persons who are unac- quainted with the nature and habits of these ‘animals usually get the idea that something is wrong because they drink so seldom. Suc- cessful keepers of goats usually water them only or three times a a oftener than evefy other day. Good results in the feeding of. any animal depend greatly on comfortable living quar- ters, and this is particularly true with goats. Their shelter should be fairly warm, though ventilated, of course, and it must be dry at all times. Much dampness, and especially exposure to cold rains, will seriously affect the goat’s health, and much standing in mud gives him a troublesome disease called “‘ - rot.” Care for a nanny goat properly and she will give you both pleasure and protit.—« ——

They fall in love with her for being one kind of person, and at once set to work, most industriously, to change her into being another kind, exactly the kind, per- haps, with whom they never would have fallen in love. Generally speaking it is my observation that to attempt to alter another person by criticism is useless. We mold each other bv what we are and what we do, but rarely by what we say. Nagging is supposed to be a feminine weakness, but women’s nagging is usually directed toward a definite deed which they want done or omitted, and is therefore com- paratively harmless; but this masculine nag- ging is directed to the very soul of the vic- tim, and makes a vital wound. And. yet I never see this sort of roughness in the man without thinking of a tragic story I heard once from a friend of mine, one who had been through a very hideous train wreck. He said that at dinner he had been put at the same table in the dining car with a commonplace middle-aged couple. The man was obviously in a bad temper—traveling perhaps affected his liver—and his crossness took the form of criticizing everything his gentle, colorless wife did or said. But an hour later, when the smash came and his wife was hopelessly pinned under the wreckage, he did not rescue her—that was impossible——but he deliberately chose to die with her. ‘‘I won’t leave you, mother,’’ were the last words he was heard to speak. It is a story that sets you thinking as to the meaning of the word gentleman. Was that husband a gentleman? He was cer- tainly a hero, and yet, if my friend had been asked the question at dinner she would have said most emphatically no. If any one who ‘knew them had been asked the question at anv time during the last 20 years of their married life, the answer would have heen no—that he was a bully and a boor. And if the train had not run into another train, that would have been the final—per- haps the just—conclusion. But you wonder from that poor woman’s point of view—what would have made her happiest—if that rich, splendid love and self-sacrifice that made it impossible for her husband to permit his own rescue while she was dying—if that could have spread out during the 20 years of marriage in kind words and civil deeds— wouldn’t it have been happier for her than that one great heroic gesture? So many hus- bands behave, day by. day, as this one did at dinner, and so few have the opportunity of the train wreck to prove the devotion that lurks behind the worst manners.—From the Delineator for August.

King’s Dog By Albert Payson Terhune LOVED monarch lay dying. The whole world waited with sad interest the hourly newspaper bulletins as to his condition. The monarch was Edward VII of England. In through the woebegone littls sickroom door crawled a white terrier; dodging among the nurses and the sorrowing rela- tives and the titled doctors. Some one saw the forlorn little dog as he reached the dying king's bedside. Horrified that so solemn an occasion should be marred by the presence of a mere dog, the attendant swooped upon the terrier and was trying to carry him out of the room when King Edward's glazing eyes opened. The dying man whispered: “Let him stay Let Caesar stay.” It was the last command of a mighty sov- ergign, and it was obeyed. Again the king spoke. his faint voice almost’ inaudible. Stroking the terrier’s head, he murmured: ‘Let him stay I'm a bit tired—old. Caesar. | suppose we'll have to do as we're told, vou and |, and keep quiet and warm, indoors. I promise to rest a bit.

Whenever ro,2l motor the king's seat in one of the cars or carriages Was vacated for even a minute, Caesar was certain .to leap into the vacant space and sit there, guarding it until his master’s return. A parody on “Who's Who,” told the tale of Caesar's life. When it came to his favor- ite amusements, the compiler jotted down “Hunting and Motoring.” But the *’Who's Who" biography did not mention one of the most tragic happenings in Caesar's long career. It was this: One day the dog had jumped as usual! into Edward's vacated seat in the motor. The king came back to the car and seated him- self. He did not notice that Caesar was on the cushion directly under him, until he had sat down with some vigor. ; The king weighed‘ nearly 200 pounds. The dog was all but killed by the sudden weight upon him. When his master died. little Caesar mourned him long and deeply. A thousand homes would have been open to him. But King Edward's beautiful widow, the Dow- ager Queen Alexandra, took him. . He spent the rest of his long life as her constant companion, in her semiseclusion at Marlborough house: where he was loved not only for the sake of his master’s memory, but because of his own gaily attractive per- sonality. On April 18, 1914, Caesar died; nearly six years after the death of the king he had served so loyally. It was one of the few times in history that the death of a dog was telegraphed and cabled to the ends of the earth. But Caesar’s memory was continued in a very practical form; apart from the books and articles and poems and pictures of which he was the hero. It was continued in the shape of his grandson, a gallant terrier named Piccadilly —they called him “Pic” for short—that fol- lowed the Canadian Highlanders to the bat- tlefields of France in the great war. Pic’? was the regimental mascot and all- around chum; and he won for himself a name at the front that was well worthy of his.splendid grandsire's fame.

I knew it would come to me in care of Radio Station WBZ, so I notified the voung woman in charge of the: station mail that I was expecting a snake. She registered dis- gust and looked worried. The week passed and no snake. Late Saturday afternoon I went for my mail and found two small pack- ages. I couldn’t imagine a snake in either one, so concluded that his serpentship had been .wavlaid or mislaid. When I reached home the first package I opened proved to be a cigarette box. Neatly coiled within on a box of cotton was his snakeship. Of course, he was dead. It was a young milk snake. whose total length was less than one foot an exceedingly pretty and wholly harmless little creature. On Monday morning when | went for my mail I was very gingerly handed a long box. Not knowing that I had already received the snake, it had been assumed at once that the snake was in that box. There was a sigh of relief when I opened the box to disclose an amazing specimen of the black-eyed Susan It had a triple ‘head. and the stem of the plant, instead of being round, was flat and more than a quarter of am inch broad. We always open these boxes somewhat! gingerly. The next one proved to be full of the liveliest members of the bug family that [f have seen in a long time. That box was closed in a hurry. The next box contained the wings, head and tail of a bird. There was no difficulty in identifying it. That bird had been a dear little sparrow hawk, the Smallest of our falcons. ‘The fact that at the time I had a male sparrow hawk, which is one of the most delightful little pets I have ever known, made this identification rather distressing. Curiously enough, within three days, and from another State. | received the description of a small hawk which had been shot, but not killed. This, too. was a sparrow hawk. Truly, the hazard of life is great for these little freebooters of the air. I am cer- tain that no one who ever has had one of these little hawks sit on his hand and talk to him would ever after harm a feather of one of this beautiful species.

Never kill a sparrow hawk ° A Bold, Bad Sparrow. A. J. Grout, a biologist of standing, con- tributes the following incident: “One Sunday morning a neighbor tele- phoned me that she had something interest- ing to show me in her garden. | went over and she gave me a chair, pointed to a robin's nest, and told me to watch. Soon Mother Robin alighted on the edge of the nest and up came four wide-open, yellow-bordered mouths. Into one of these she thrust some food. No sooner had she left than an English sparrow flew down from a branch above the nest. Again all the mouths flew open, and into the mouth of the infant just fed, a spar- row thrust his beak. Then he flew back to his perch, wiped his bill and waited until the old robin again fed the young. 3 “IT watched for an hour or more, and he did this thing as often as the young robins were fed. He never left the tree during this mal] ney er Eve ry and I when | one or more open time, but was carefyl never to go near those © nests until the old robin was gone.

Friendly Knemies., Hardly less difficult to explain is the follow- ing delightful incident from Miss Katharine Delabarre, of Massachusetts: Recently,’ says she, ‘‘my father was walking through the woods near the house with our little terrier, Blighty, when a fox was heard barking. Blighty promptly ran into the woods. The fox continued to bark, and looking down the trail, father saw the dog and the fox come out of the woods together and play about on the trail. They ran in and out among the bushes, and after a while the dog returned to wheresmy father was standing. Along came the fox and stood within 20 feet. The dog joined him again,.and they played together for an hour or more. “One Sunday evening, a week or so later at the same hour, we heard the fox calling as we came through the woods, and the per- formance was repeated. This time I was privileged to see it. It was amazing. Ap- parently, Blighty and the fox had heen the best of friends for a long time. It is a full grown red fox. We hope eventually. to get some pictures.’ The Dry Storage Bird. Cold storage is a little beyond our furred and feathered friends, but among the latter are two that have managed to find a subst tute. They are the Northern shrike and the loggerhead shrike, both being known by the familiar name of butcher bird The shrikes have discovered that if they can not put their food in cold storage, they can at least sun-dry il Therefore, in the neighborhood of the home distriet of one of these birds you are likelv at anv time to run across some some- what grewsome collections. They may in- clude mice, small birds, grasshoppers, spiders, and other large insects. They are neatly impaled on long thorns, or on the barbs of a barbed wire fence, for the shrike was quick to see the advantages to him of man’s harbaric invention The idea that the shrike impales these victims out of wanton cruelty is a mis- take This bird believes in the old adage, ‘Make hav while the sun shines."’ Food be- ing plentiful, the supply is thus stored against the hour of need when food is not plentiful Also, as the bird has rather weak feet for holding its prey, the thorns or barbs are con- venient, A Naturalist’'s Question Box, “Of what economic value is the porcupine?” inquires James A Calhoun. Apparently Prickly Porky's chief economle claim is that oceasionally he may save the life of a human being by furnishing food to some unfortunate lost in the deep woods. For this reason he has been protected in certain timber sections Certainly his method of eating is destructive, and a porcupine in the course of aos! can kill a considerable numbér of trees by girdliug. Robert F. Putnam has been puzzled by some curious inseets found on a maple tree. He says they have long, transparent wings, a long. body something like a wasp’s, but twice as large and divided into segments; six vellow legs, two vellow antennae, and a queer, long tail of three segments which form 4 hollow tube six inches long The insect alights on the tree, stands on the four front feet, loops the tail over, and with the two hind feet spears this through the bark of the tree. These are what are known as ichneuman flies.’ What Robert calls a tail js an ovi- positor. These particular flies are parasites on enower insect known as the pigeon horn- tail. The larvae of the latter burrows in the wood of the tree. Mrs. Thalessa Luneta, which is the name of this ichneuman fly, selects a place which she judges is above the burrow of the horntail. With her ovipositor she drills a‘ hole into the burrow. There she deposits an egg. The larvae that hatches from this egg creeps along the burrow, finds the larvae of the horntail, fastens to it and lives on it. ‘‘Ain’t nature grand?”’ vear

HE recent publication of the diariés of George Washington has awakened in- terest in the literary merits of this first of Americans. At the outset, it must be confessed that Washington lacked the trained literary mind of Thomas Jefferson who for clarity of style, impressiveness of phrasing and gift of the right word in the right place has only been equaled in the presidential chair by Woodrow Wilson, also of Virginia. One of the most thrilling sights at Mount Vernon mansion is the library or study where Washington was wont to retire from the throngs of guests which ever crossed its hospitable doors to meditate, study and write the treasured bits of thought which have come down to posterity, some of them, and others no doubt which have become lost in ihe mists of the years. There is no known record of any poetry dashed off by the youthful Washington in the exuberance of his admiration for some Virginia belle who might have caught his youthful fancy. Whether or not he indulged in this pleasant pastime to which his com- rades of that day were generally addicted is a matter, alas, of conjecture. Just think what vogue a love poem of George Wash- ington’s would have. It would crowd the latest’ master crime off the front pages of our newspapers and rival in interest the daily chronicle of the trout caught by the distinguished summer resident of White Pines camp. That Washington composed several origi- nal prayers is a matter of history. In that day, such a religious occupation was not in- frequent. Washington had ae thorough grounding in the Bible on which to base such a habit. The Church of England then as today had the godly habit of reading through the Scriptures within a _ certain period by lessons appointed for morning and evening prayer and Washington also would have become acquainted with biblical phras- ing at the morning and evening family prayer without which no day was thought complete in the Virginia of that age and generation. When it comes to the basis of a literary style there is no other source so prolific of ripe fruit as the Bible. It was a tradition in the Washington family that George Wash- ington had frequently read the Bible to his household and that he had a great knowl- edge and appreciation of its lofty passages. In the Library of Congress are treasured to this day Bible references the young Washington had entered into a pocketbook. Here and there-in his recorded speeches we find apt biblical allusions and phrases. >” & os oo HE statesmen of the past all prided them- selves on their working knowledge of the Bible. This homely practice has fallen in to disuse in recent generations and it is not too much to say that it is one of. the least quoted books in the House of Repre- senatives and the Senate at the present time. However, in recent years there have been some great btblical scholars, in Congress, notably the late Speaker Champ Clark whose knowledge of holy writ enriched his speeches ‘and his quotations from it were always apt and germane to the subject at issue as well. Another source of literary strength drawn upon by the youthful Washington was found in the Latin classics. It is not a matter of record as to Greek, but among the books of the Washington family treasured in the Bos- ton Athenaeum are a Latin Testament once studied by George Washington and the Latin Lexicon of Homer. In this collection are also treasure@d Sir Matthew ‘Hale’s Contem- plations and Hervey’s Meditations, great fa- vorites in that age from which the President that was to be evidently drew much moral ductrine and material on which to base the long, long thoughts of youth. In that godly day sermons were the fre- quent literary meat served to the young, and in the Washington collection is a thumb- eared copy of a volume of sermons by the bishop of Exeter. It is safe to venture that the boy Washington did not find such read- ing a lure to.his imagination; but when books. where, oh, where will she put that hanky, and why?

So I’m sketching you three coats this week, each quite successful in its own way. The striking one at the left was in black and beige faille, worn by a tall, slim blonde. Her shoes were of the new black dull kid. Her gloves, stockings and hat were beige. This was a costume for a fairly coolish day. The lady in the middle wore hers in weather 10 degrees hotter—a printed crepe dress in black and white with a black crepe coat. Her white panama hat was banded in black, and she had a huge pink flower on her shoulder—as big as the biggest peony youever Mp ea saw.

A book to George Washington was a treas- ure and not to be treated lightly. In those which he personally owned he placed his book plate with its motto, that of the Wash- ington family, ‘‘Exitus Acta Probat;’’ in plain English, ‘‘The result is the test of the acts.” Surely this book plate was most prophetic. What he lacked in systematic education, which was of elementary character, save for common-school branches, Washington strove to make up in a good library, and we find him a consistent book buyer, his library growing volume by volume and year by year as his literary interests deepened and he found in books a real staff on which to lean. ! ca MPRORDEYS 10} ARE CT RVTyGEOE: 1 }yr NUT THRETPNERpOCRPOTAGE IND Opt ESYOED LN pF nag APPT HeepNAD mrt a ptt aah SSeS of OS tet aT - eee = e+ VOGUE 8646 THE BLUE CHIFFON FROCK.

For there is nothing that brings a shudder to the audience like the sight of a woman no longer young but still striving to appear so—still coquettish—still pathetical- ly eager for admiration. The too white powder of a bygone age in cosmetics, the fingers full of rings, the henna-tinted hair, the feverish eyes—-these are things we'd rather not think about. CHEER UP!—-BEFORE THE MIRROR. But some of us go to the other extreme. We've become discouraged. We wash. our faces drearily with any old soap; we dab on any old powder; we pull our hair straight back and do it in a knot on top, or we pom- padour it as we did in 1910, not caring whether our hats fit or not. We look as we feel—left out by life, left behind, where no- body cares and nothing. matters. All this works against our self-esteem. (We’re as pathetic, in our way, as the old bell who still insists upon ringing despite cracks.) We should take stock of ourselves and make the best of what we see. If we can’t eliminate wrinkles, we can a@ least wear them both cheerfully and smartly. We can have an air so clean cut, fresh and well groomed that our children won’t be disap- pointed in us. (The older woman should observe the dis- tinction and dignity that are the privileges of her age in her make-up, her coiffure and her costume. ) , The Care of Gray Hair. First of all, perhaps, we should consider our hair, which is probably gray or white. No, we probably shan’t bob it. But neither will we bear about with us huge wads of it —real or false—so that our heads possess an archaic outline. We’ll have it thinned down to modern proportions and done in a small, flat chignon low at the back. We’ll keep it shiningly clean—-with a shampoo every. two or three weeks, followed by a rinse in bluing solution; with much brushing and fine-tooth combing in between to get rid of the dust; with an occasional dry shampoo by means of orris-root powder if the scalp gets oily before it should be washed again. If.our hair isn’t gray enough to suit us, we’ll use that. famous special tonic that speeds up the whitening process. Hats and Suitable Complexions. In choosing a hat, we'll keep to the lines of the mode in general, but we’ll choose a shape and a material that are kind to our years. If we wear glasses, we'll know that a little brim is better thah a small, tight hat, and we'll arrange our hair so that some of it shows softly below this brim. Felt is hard on us; velvet is lovely; no color is sq good as black, generally. We'll study our complexions carefully, too. . Probably the vivid rouges of our youth are quite impossible, but the faintest wild-rose touch will improve us. Nobody of our age uses white powder any more, but flesh or e \ i. rachel will meet our needs. .Of course, we won't make up our eyes, but we may dis- creetly darken our eyebrows and lashes, if we honestly think that will improve us. Lip- rouge should be applied with great discre- tion and in not too gay a shade. The Importance of Corsets and Brassieres. - Our figures, in all likelihood, are no longer slender, but rather what our similarly up- - © VOGUE i 4 holstered friends term “comfortable.” Yet we can prevent these figures from bulging in places eae to youthful eyes by giving of attention to finding the cor- rect corset and its correct companion bras- We must expect to pay more for these Prices have advantced—and so, alas, has the difficulty of But the solution may be found. Clothes to cover this correct foundation a good deal siere. things than we did years ago. fitting us. cn ‘or white rose. may be harder to buy than they used to be. This suggests ceasing to look for them in the ready-to-wear departments, and getting, instead, a good pattern and material suited to our needs in color and texture. A little dressmaker ought to be easier to locate than she usually is, but patient search will gen- erally unearth her. This having our clothes made to order makes it easier to get the skirts a becoming length, the hip-lines tight or easy as our figure dictates, the accessories to match or accord as smartness demands. Also, it costs much less. And we can always have the little scarf to match that the older womas finds so flattering a necessity if her throat-line isn’t all it used to be. Feet should be given special attention as one grows older. Nothing looks worse than a fat foot bulging over a slipper too tight or one that is cut too low. At the opposite ex- treme, nothing looks worse than the utterly, damningly common-sense shiny kid old ladies’ oxford, worn because “it doesn’t hurt.” There are whole lines of shoes that stand for smartness as well as for comfort. What About Jewelry and Perfumes? Jewelry, for the older woman, should be largely a matter of elimination. She has lived a long time and has accumulated a good deal: but this is no reason for putting it all on at once. Really old-fashioned set, tings are lovely; but the kind that’ were in fashion 20 years ago are, to Our modern eyes, frankly dreadful. Let us, then, go boldly over our possessions and have those stones reset that are. worth it, laying the others aside. In the matter of rings, let us remember that one, or at the most two, are all that one is permitted to wear on one hand today. And these must bear some relation to each other and to our costume, even though they don’t appear on the same hand. In the matter of pins, let us keep firmly in mind that, today, a pin is supposed to earn its keep. It isn’t thrust in ‘‘anyhow;”’ ft must fasten something at shoulder, hip or, breast. In the matter of bracelets, we should be very cautious unless we have unusually well-modelled arms. In the matter of imita- tion jewelry, we should say ‘‘No!” with great firmness. It isn’t dignified enough for us, no matter how smart it may be. Perfumes, for the woman of 50, must be subtle rather than garish; they may even be deliberately old-fashioned, like wood-violet But they mustn’t ever be of the ‘‘vamp’’ type—incensey or Oriental. Is It. Wise to Be Old-Fashioned? A final word may be said as to this action of the deliberately old-fashioned. When a woman is past 50 she may, in a sense, set her own styles. If a lace shawl is becoming to her, or a tulle scarf, or a flower that al- ways appears on every gown, or a cameo brooch with real lace, or a dog-collar of velvet by day and pearls at night, then it is _ her privilege to adopt this thing as her own. Her children, will recognize it as belonging to her personality and adding to her chcarm —but only if she gives it the kind of back- ground that says, “I know the mode, and, in the main, I gYllow it. But this is my pet exception-—and the final proof of a cleverness that I hope you've all inherited.” (Copy right, (1026, by Vogue I SOLUS MN PUAN eae earn eeeo et SRL MC Ce i Ln Le nh UMUC LEE CG Lan Lee Pes CL ee ee) Co ee iid PS} § s = = L = 3 = UT PALLET LA) LLL ah EL — PS A | yeshiva da Was a serious reader, and we find in his mention of fietion writings or letters. As he wrote to G. W. P. Custis, “Light reading (by this I mean books of little.importance) may amuse for the moment, but leaves nothing solid behind. ‘Tis to close application and con- stant perseverance men of letters and science are’ indebted for their knowledge |. and usefulness.”’ After his death the inventory of his execu- tors showed: that his library comprised 900 volumes, exclusive Ol many magazines, pamphlets and maps For that period this Was regarded as a very large library, and in the opinion of his neighbors at Mount Ver- non he was a “‘bookish’’ and scholarly man. His executors were impressed by the fact that this library was mainly composed of worth-while hooks There was very little trash in it, and it showed the result of great care in selection. Mrs. Washington was of a very devout turn of mind, and it is possible that the large proportion of religious volumes was due to her efforts rather than to that of George Washington, for his was a practical soldiers’ faith. One of the items in the Washington library was a 3l-volume of “Annals of Agricul- ture,” by Arthur Young. That these had heen thoroughly digested by the farmer gen- eral of Mount Vernon is shown by accom- panving notebooks in which he had summar- ized for practical use the data found in the volumes. With mative shrewdness he great weakness in the technical agriculture of his age That was that their conclusions were founded on “experimental knowledge’ and sometimes their directions were contradictory and bewildering. Every farmer in the land should thank Washington for the sound advice he gives, just as good today as in 1786, when he placed it in a letter to Theodrick Bland, and wrote: ‘‘] shall always be happy to give or re- ceive communications on improvements in farming, and the various branches of agri- culture, This is, in my opinion, an object of infinite importance to the country [ con- sider it to be the proper source of American wealth and happiness, whose streams might become more copious and diffusive; if gen- tlemen of leisure and capacity would turn their attention to it, and bring the results of their experiments together; nothing but cultivation is wanting. Our lot has certainly destined a good country for our inheritance.”’ That Washington's mind leaned toward travel and its resultant culture is seen in the fact that travel stories occupied much space in his book shelves. History too Was not neglected and the list was not confined to American topics, but included subjects of ancient and European’ history as well. Shakespeare and Pope: ‘The TIlliad’’ and “Odyssey.’’ Burns and a translation of Hor- ace satisfied his poetic leanings, and mental food was found in ‘‘Look on the Understand- ing,.’’ while the proof that he was an accu- rate scholar and versed in literary research is available in the notation that he paid $185 -then a vast sum of money—-for the Amer- ican encyclopedia in eighteen volumes, which he ordered neatly bound in gilt calf. Washington had the pleasant habit of writ- ing to authors and expressing his views on their output. ment of American literature and ftrequently inspired his associates to the task of memoir writing. ‘ Nor were the newspapers of the time neg- lected by Washington.

Can human hand tint the wine of a butterfly or fashion a raindrop into a snow crystal? Noel Mead, Mary Bes- sette and Dorothy Stafford all an- swer “No.” and the problem was solved in the wild hurly-burly of an unfair fight in Noel’s cabin. HE black-eyed gir] at the roadhouse was calling him, heart to heart, as Noel Mead set up his snowshoes in a drift at the cabin door. His mittened hand drew back from the latch, hesitating. Supper, and a long evening alone by the fire, or the Broken Knuckle and the sweet little sing- ing voice of Mary Bessette? Come along, mon cheri! Come along with me! Come along, mon cheri! Au cafe Paris! Almost he could hear her singing her own queer little songs; chansons of Canada which she had brought down across the border, and the best of the things that had been new on Jroadway six months before. A lonesome fool, he called himself; a fool for having started to survey a great Adiron- dack estate without a gang, or at least a rod- man. When a man carried a transit over his shoulder all day. spilling himself in the snow a dozen times hetween daylight and dark, he did not want to spend every evening alone, It was ’not an occasional evening at the Broken Knuckle, with lumberjacks and boot- leggers and mysterious white-handed men from the city, that worried Mead. Mary Bessette! And the thrumming of his heart- strings whenher little feet darted like pink butterflies over the tobacco-stained floor. Black hair and pink dresses; no wonder they worshiped her at the Broken Knuckle. The spruces and the hemlocks were black against the mountainside. Black and white and gray the world had become in the late afternoon: and only the near pines showed dull green. Warming up and getting ready; it could not be more than 20 below zero now, by the feeling in the air. Mead sbook him- self and went into his one-room cabin; it Was contrary to all common sense for him to go down to the Broken Knuckle. Snowshoes were left outside so that the rawhide would keep firm, and the transit was placed carefully in its corner inside. There were a few coals left from morning in the ashes at the bottom of the box stove. Mead pulled off his mackinaw shirt, of red and black checks, and stood straight and long and lean in the semidarkness. A young man heavy in the shoulders, but with no weight to carry anywhere else; bred to the mountains, with long-range blue eyes and a crop of weathered brown hair. He was eating by candlelight when he heard the click of the wooden latch lifting. Only a close friend, an enemy or an outlander would enter like that, without knocking. His hand moved along the table toward his hunt- ing knife as he looked up; and then he sprang to his feet, staring with unbelieving eyes at the figure that had come in out of the gathering night. A tall young woman in whipcord breeches g@nd a short, sable-lined coat was standing with her back against the door; a hand still keeping hold upon the latch while she search- ed his face with wide gray eyes. Mead had mever seen a girl so beautiful; bands of pale, gleaming hair showed beneath her sable cap, framing an oval face strong in spite of deli- cate curves. Her lips were full, but firm and sensitive; and from the gray eyes courage shone steadily. “You are Mead?” she asked, in a soft, rich voice: ‘Noel Mead, the surveyor?” “Yes.” He smiled, and pulled a bench forward. ‘I’m doing some work here for Berkeley Stafford, of New York. You—sur- prised me for a moment. I seldom see any one, even a trapper, here. Won't you sit down?” “I’m Dorothy Stafford.’’ She moved to the bench and sat down, pulling off her heavy gloves. Mead saw a ruby which even his inexperienced eye knew for a thing of great value. ‘“‘My father isn’t here?”’ “Why, no! It was understood that I’d send my report to him in the spring!’’ “Indeed! She spread out her hands and looked at them thoughtfully. ‘I may as well tell you— I've been at Lake- Placid for a few weeks of winter sports. Day before yester- day father telegraphed me to meet him here in your cabin. I don’t understand it at all!’’ Her glance had been appraising the cabin as she talked; now it came to his face. She was no longer doubtful of him; he could read that. “Mr. Stafford must be on the way,’’ Mead. ‘‘How did you get here?”’ “Why, from the railway station I hired a man to drive me to the nearest inn; the man seemed to be expecting me. At the inn they said I'd better stay there all night, and that they would give me a guide in the morning. But——wel], I. didn’t like anything about the place. I had my snowshoes with me, and so, after I’d found out which way your camp lay, I.just slipped out of the inn and started alone. I suppose I was foolish, but—to tell the truth, I was frightened! There was some- thing sinister about the place.”’ “The Broken Knuckle!” breathed Mead. “I don’t know the name of it. A red- haired man with one eye brought me in from the station, and he seemed to own the hotel.”’ “Reddy Godahl! Yes, it’s no place for you! ‘‘But father must be here somew here, and he would not have arranged “tT don’t know that your father is here,’’ interupted Mead. ‘‘And I’m sure he never sent Reddy Godahl to meet you! Maybe, just maybe, he never sent that telegram! Where was it sent from?” “Tl think it came from Montreal. He said he'd had to make a business. trip to Canada and that he would stop here on his way back to New York.”’ “TiHat’s it! I'll bet a month’s pay he’s in New York now and that he wasn’t in Canada at ali!*’ “But whv?”’ “TI don’t know'why. I do know that there are some bad characters working along the said @ border—chinks and dope and hijacking. Yes, 4g * ne and worse. It’s a good thing you had a chance to get away from the Broken Knuckle. They probably thought you were helpless in the woods.”’ “They might be planning to get some money from father,” she said meditatively. “That's probably it. You’d be worth a smal: tortunme to kidnapers!’’ She laughed, but without mirth, and shrugged. Mead watched her as she threw off her heavy coat and tossed it to the bunk— a thoroughbred. ‘*Some one will suffer for this!’’ He was surprised at the steel. in her voice; it would certainly go hard with Godah) and his sidekicks if anything could be proved against them. This girl would see to that. a Mead thought her father would be the same, - from what he had seen of him. “They ay fade away when they find theyv'va lost you.” said Mead. - “Across the border - or into the mountains.” ‘‘Do you mean to say that the police can’t get them?’’ “Perhaps not,” he replied witn a smile. “They will if they can, but there’s many a wanted man who has lived to a hearty old age in the back country. “You're hungry. I’m sorry I didn’t think of that. But it was strange to see a woman come in out of the night, with a blizzard Starting.’’ ‘“‘Thanks!"’ She waited for a bench for her. ‘You live alone?”’ “Yes. With work to do it isn’t so bad.”’ Her glance wandered to his books. She ate in silence. Mead thrilled at her; a woman of a world he knew and did not know. He had read about it, and he understood it to a certain extent, but it lay beyond his actual experience. : He knew that he might be capable of enter- ing it, with money and a little smoothing at the corners. Yes; if he made good here, per- haps Stafford would give him a bigger job; up and up in the world. A swift, subdued rattle swept across the window nearest the table. These were wind- driven pellets of snow; and the white frost Was creeping up the panes inside. The bliz- zard had come. Mead felt the pull of the wind against the cabin, now that he thought of it. It did not matter much to him, except that the girl would have to stay until the weather cleared. He was glad; she was giving him a vision + another world. Ambition stirred within im. They talked casually at intervals as he cleared the table and washed the dishes. It was after he had finished work and lighted his pipe that the door latch rose and fell with a sharp clack. That was not the wind. Mead crossed the room swiftly and swung the door open cautiously, with his shoulder against it on account of the wind, and his feet ready to spring. He did not expect trouble, but a wise man opens a door at night with care. A snow-incrusted bundle fell room and rolled against his feet. being—-a woman—Mary Bessette’ The pain-stricken eyes, staring up between muffler and cap, told him that it was Mary. There was torture in their black depths and a glaze over the surface. “Mary! He drove his shoulder against the door and stopped the blast that was tear- ing into the cabin. Then he carried her to his bunk Muffler, jacket, moccasins: he flung them away as fast as he could get them off. Tiny stiff fingers and small bare pink feet were illumined in the candlelight: there was no frostbite on feet or hands or face. An- other ten minutes and it might have heen very bad; she had put on her outdoor cloth- ing over one of the Jight dresses that she wore in the superheated Broken Knuckle. A little whimper of pain announced the agony of returning cyculation, and Mary curled up in the bunk like a sick kitten. Mead groaned aloud in sympathy. and rubbed her fingers: it was there that the pain would be. Her white teeth sank into her lower lip. He pressed hard with his palm against the tangle of black curls. There was a moment of silent battle, and then she sat up, smiling through tears which still lay wet upon her cheexs. “Oh, Noel!’’ she cried, in the happy little voice that dripped music upon the hearts of men. “It’s a hell of a night!”’ At the sound of a step Mead turned: he had forgotten all about Dorothy Stafford. Now she stood at his shoulder, looking down upon Mary Bessette, with her ivory cigarette- holder poised, and one slim hand in a breeches pocket. The glances of the women met in thrust and parry, with honors even. Mary looked up at Noel, and her eves softened. “Reddy Godah! is coming after her!"’ She nodded toward Miss Stafford. ‘‘He’s bring- ing Tinker Smith and Joe Tolman with him. Short of murder they meah business, and if Tinker gets drunk enough he'll shoot!’’ “I thought they’d let it drop!’’ exclaimed Mead. ‘“‘Are you sure they’re going to take a long chance like this?”’ “Sure? Do you think I'd night if I didn’t know? for $50,000, thing slips. a long time, day.”’ **‘May I ask who you are?’’ A line of per- plexity creased the forehead of Dorothy Staf- ford. “IT sing and dance at the Broken Knuckle, where you came today,’’ replied Mary, with a smile flickering around her mouth. ‘“Oh—and you’ve come to warn ‘us! I shan’t forget it, I assure you!” Suddenly Mary went white and began to slip forward from the bunk, clutching at Mead’s sleeve. He threw an arm around her. ‘‘What’s the matter, Mary? Water, Miss Stafford! Quick! She's going to faint!’’ “Not me!’’ Mary leaned against him with closed eyes, holding hard with both hands. “The Tinker took a shot at me as I got away—my shoulder!” Her shoulder was wet to his touch. In the dim light he had not noticed a dark stain growing over the shoulder blade. Mead ripped away the fabric and found a little furrow plowed across the ‘white skin; not much of anything after he had it prop- erly dressed and bandaged, but that wound had been painful and bleeding through the girl’s five-mile battle with the cruel night. The round, fair arm of Mary Bessette gleamed bare jn the candlelight; her velvet shoulder was scored. A lion of anger stirred within Mead and growled and stretched for an awakening. “What are you going to do, Noel?” asked Mary when she was -herself again, fully dressed and drinking a cup of hot tea. “I’m not sure,’’ he answered slowly. ‘It wouldn’t do Miss Stafford any good for me to start shooting. They’d get me and then her. So that’s out. We can’t travel tonight. They hold all the aces. It would be sense to compromise.’’ “Yes,’’ agreed Mary. ‘“‘Godahl has got more nerve than I thought. He wins.”’ “Just what do you mean by compromise?” asked Dorothy Stafford coldly. “Offer them ten thousand to call it off.” “Certainly, not!’”’ Her tone was like the cutting edge of steel, keen and hard and cold. “You coward!”’ _ ““Pake that back!” Mary Bessette was blaz- ing in front of Mead, facing the other woman: her eyes seemed like disks of jet laid against white paper. ‘If they kill him or beat him up and take you, it’ll cost fifty thousand! And if anything won’t want to come back! You fool!” “Haven’t you forgotten the police?” Dor- othy Stafford was now a little uncertain, a trifle frightened and very angry: “Never mind, Mary!’* said Noel. Stafford, I'll do what I can for you. much that will be I don’t know.” ‘‘l’m sorry if I misjudged you.” She spoke to him repentantly, but’ for Mary ‘Bessette her eyes were filled with smoldering sparks. “You must admit that I’ve had reason since ——ah—Miss Bessette came opinion I had formed of you!” “I un’erstan’, me!’’ cried Mary. In mo- ments of stress her English pronunciation blurred a little, and the. language of her native Quebec came welling up. “‘But I am inothing at all to monsieur!

Yes, I have walk’ with bare feet over the sharp stones of that border!’’ Dorothy stared, and Mead did not understand what His eyes met Mary's eves; each other. He pulled himself back from that under- standing. He was a fool. Behold the two women! A tall and slender lily and a little wild rose—what silly things a man would think! Noel was astonished at himself: at he had just seen and heard. had he known Mary to be angry. Here he stood, like a phantom of a man. seeing a Strange dream; with danger and perhaps death beating through the night toward him. He stood here and thought thoughts he would not have spoken aloud for more than the wealth of Berkeley Stafford. Reason was all against it, but he knew that Dorothy Staf- ford looked upon him with eyes which held something more than the interest of the com- mon danger. A thud came against the door, and upon the instanit it burst open. An avalanche seemed to hur]! itself into the cabin: with the three already there bearing back before its weight. Three men were here in a storm cloud. One of the bent, white figures turned and barred the door; another fumbled with a rifle of frost and snow, Wiping at his eves. The third of them swept off his cap and mittens and held himself ready for battle. This was the flerce and malodorous Reddy Godahl. thick- bodied and hard-bitten. The patch that he wore where one eye had been was a blank cake of snow, but the good eve blazed at Noe! Mead. “Tell Tinker to set his rifle in the corner and get warm,” said Mead. quitely. “If he wants to start shooting, I've got a gun, too!”’ Noel had stepped forward. in front of Dorothy and Mary. His rifle, with a full magazine, stood at the head of the - hind him, aye The quick eye of Godah] saw this; he took the rifle out of the hands of Smith and set it against the wall: The first danger had at least. been postponed. For the next five minutes the enemy thaw- ed themselves, with grunts and maledictions. They dug the snow out of necks and ears, and pounded caps and coats until the floor was white and the stove hissing steam. Tinker Smith passed a bottle to his allies, and when it came back to him he took a heroie drink. He was a raw-boned, powerful man with a weak face and very small eyes. A study in contrast’ were these three. Joe Tolman was phlegmatic, heavy, menacing with a kind of animal cruelty. The intelli- gence of the combination lay with Godahl, just as he had the greater daring and ferocity. Tolman pulled ice from his mustache and srunted. The little eyes of Tinker grew bright as they stared at Dorothy, but Reddy Godahl measured Noel Mead to see how much of a man stood between him and the carrying out of his purpose. “I know what's’ up, Reddy,’ said Mead. “Things went a little wrong for you, but now you’ve got us in a corner. We might as well talk it over.” “I don’t have to talk!” }waggered Godahl. “T’ll: settle with Bessette later on, but the Stafford girl means money, and when the storm breaks she goes with us!’’ “Mary Bessette is out of the argument, Godahl,’”’ Mead told him. ‘Also you‘tve got to talk. Unless you want two or three murders on your hands! Do you, Reddy? They might get you some time! You know as well as I-do that they won't forget Berkeley Stafford’s daughter! Don’t try to bluff!” Noel stood with his hands in his pockets, looking out under his eyebrows at Godahl. Men and dogs of sense understand with whom they have to deal. The proprietor of the Broken Knuckle was not ready to risk killing Dorothy. Stafford; moreover, there would be no money in it at all. | : “All right!’’ growled Godahl. ‘‘Say.we don’t want to kill anybody! Then what?

The Tinker had gabbled a little to himself, and edged around behind the stove with no purpose that was immediately ap- parent. Mead concentrated upon Godahl, and paid little attention to Smith, considering him not yet sufficiently drunk to be dangerous. While Noel waited, looking into the eye of Godahl for an answer to his offer, the sound of a slight movement came from be- hind him. A stified cry followed, and then the patter of small, quick blows;’a shuffle of feet, hard breathing. Mead spun around, and, in the instant that he did so, he knew that _ the explosion he had tried to avoid was at hand. | Tinker Smith, with his loose mouth twisted in a foolish grin, held Dorothy in his arms. She had flung her body backward from the waist and was beating upon his face with little fists which made no impression at all. As Mead looked, and before he could move, Mary Bessette sprang forward. The Tinker swung one arm free and with a clenched fist struck Mary in the mouth. She reeled witha red stain widening upon her chin. Noel, leaped, and with his weight behind a straight-driven arm he hit the Tinker’s jaw: he heard the bone snap. Smith crunched against the log wall. His eyes turned glassy, and he dropped there, limp and crumpled, and pawing feebly at the planks of the floor. Mead was carried forward by his own im- petus, but he knew witiout seeing that Tol- man and Godahl were making for him across Mary Bessette was hanging like a fox terrier on the back of Godahl, and with all the wiry strength of her small arms was pulling at the ends of a rope she had passed about his neck mountains until we get it.

Except for Tinker those in the room had kept silent, of grub, himself Smith, hanging the few feet of space that separated them. His hand found the rifle in the corner, and he whirled, but there was no chance to throw a cartridge into the magazine. He barely had time to raise the weapon as high as his wafst and drive the muzzle a handbreadth into the stomach of Joe Tolman. The big man went down with a grunt, kick- va WHERE ARE PUG ONCE SO POPULAR HERE? The pug dog has almost disappeared from earth. He and his breed haven’t been popular since Hector, the well- known mongrel, pup. About fifteen or twenty years were the rage. It was a poor family, that couldn’t support one; but nowadays other dogs have the run of the lot. The Boston terrier has taken the place of the pug. Dogs come and go, like other lines. .There is more truth than poetry in the old saying. ‘‘Every dog has his day.” Women are the.greatest dog fanciers, and depending on:.their whims dog breeds are either on the up and up or the down and down. William P. Collins, an admitted authority, since he has one of the finest dog hospitals in the country, was called upon to give testi- mony on the disappearance of the pug. “For the life of me,” said Mr. Collins, ‘‘I couldn’t tell you why the pug went out of fashion; but it did—-and you hardly ever see a pug dog today. I believe, however, that the pug will come back in style, and soon.’’ The test of and breed of dog’s popularity is measured by the shows, says Mr. Collinse— and just at present the Boston terrier is the most popular dog in America. <A while back, the airedale had ‘a reign, and before that the pekinese; but now it is the Boston terrier. Incidentally, the pug dog is being bred in England again—its original home—and sev- eral specimens were sent to this country last week. That would presage the start of a new vogue, and the pug will probably become popular again,-in the opinton of Mr. Collins. “As a matter of ‘fact,’’ he said, ‘‘there is no true American breed of dog, tunless it be the Boston terrier. Some writers for the dog journals have claimed that the Boston terrier was the outgrowth of certdin breeds and that these ‘had their start in other lands; but it has been proved rather convincingly here lately that the’ Boston terrier really is an American strain—and this is probably our only native dog. “So' far as the pug dog is concerned that species had its origin in England. It came into popularity some 20 or 30 years ago, and almost every family’ in the land had one. The pug dog was a strange sort’ of animal, and no one really knows its origin. In -ap- pearance it was sdmewhat like a bull dog, though greatly different. It had a stort, square m@zzle and heavily wrinkled head. Its ears hung close: to the sides of its head and carried forward. The body was short and reund. Its tail curled, and lay flat on Was a indeed, its back. The colors were usually rich apricot — fawn with deep black shadings. “Pugs ranged in weight from fifteen to twenty-odd pounds, . They were divided into azo pug dogs three clases, heavyweight. Styles in dogs chothing or automobiles. comes extremely popular, like a song, it helps kill itself off, in the opinion of Mr. Collins. The pug probably suffered that fate. So did the airedale. The German police dog had a run in this country, for a whéle; but police dogs have now gone out of style. There were too many of them. In dogs, as in everything else, people ‘ike things that are just a bit different. If every- body has a hound dog no one wants a hound dog. If hound dogs are rare, and: not being kicked around, everybody wants a hound dog. Because pugs have practically disappeared, at least in this country, is one reason why they will undoubtedly come in vogue again. The recent shipments from London would tend to bear this out. In the old days, pug dogs were very valu- able. They sold for rather high prices, They made good pets because they were gentle. Women liked them because they were easily fondled, took to caresses, and showed no signs of ferociousness even in humid weather. So the pug dog will probably come back.

Little R@stus was on the train on his way to the country for the first time to visit his Uncle Rastus, for whom he was named. Uncle Rastus hitched his team up to the spring wagon and went to meet the. train, which arrived in the little village after dark. After helping little Rastus into the wagon he said: ‘‘Boy, hold dese lines till Ah gets de baggage.”’ When Uncle Rastus had gathered up the baggage he was surprised to see little Rastus running at breakneck speed back toward the train.

But they wera only skirmishers. Mead would have found no thrashing both of them at once; his real bat- tle was to be with the silent one-eyed man who was coming tor him with the tread of a cat, and death in that greenish-brown cye. The strength of Reddy Godahl was pro- digious; he was his own bouncer at the Broken Knuckle, and the mountains had not produced a lumberjack so tough that Godahl could not throw himout. Mead knew he was lost if he let the other man close in. He struck with the clubbed rifle. Godahl caught the blow and wrenched the weapon away, and laughed, and threw it down. Noel landed a,volley of crashing blows, laid open the cheek of Godahl, and reached his chin, but without so much as rocking him upon his massive feet. Reddy Godahl came on almost slowly, with his lips drawn back from big, yellow teeth. Mead bent to lift a bench,,sand in that mo- ment Godahl caught him. They went to the floor together, locked and fighting for holds. In the battles fought at the roadhouse nothing was barred: Noel felt a thumb reach- ing for his eyes as he lay under the weight of Godahl. He caught the wrist, and for seconds they lay motionless, with all the strength that was fn them pitted against each other. dim curtain began to descend over the consciousness of Noel. He thought he was lost; and then he perceived that something was happening. A shudder convulsed the big body of Godahl; it went slack suddenly. Mead, gasp- ing in mouthfuls of air, jammed the pressing face away from his own and saw what had happened. Mary Bessette was hanging like a fox ter- rier upon the back of Godahl, and all the wiry strength in her small arms was pulling at the ends of a rope that she had passed around hfs neck. His tongue came out ofa purple face, and he collapsed utterly. Mead staggered to his feet, but not yet could he rest or breathe himself. Only when the hands and feet of the three men were tied did he permit himself to sit down upon the bunk, head hanging; with the room whirling before his eyes, and every muscle in his body atremble. He saw Mary sink to a bench, limp, braced up by herarms. She had helped him until the last knot was tied. Dorothy Stafford was standing by the¢ table, looking over in his direction with eyes which had become as bright as stars. They looked steadily upon him. He drew himself up and smiled. She brought a drink from the water pail and held the dipper to his lips; he let the water run down his throat, oblivious to every- thing except that grateful coolness A moment later Mead stood up and shook himself. Finally Mary smiled at him from her bench: he gave her water and felt of the bandage upon her shoulder to make sure it was still in place. She pushed black curls out of the way with shaking, scratched hands, and got up unsteadily. “I'd better fix the Tinker'’s jaw,’’ she said. “He's whimpering over there in the corner like a sick puppy! It hurts him!” She walked across the room wearily and knelt where Mead had dragged his three prisoners. He saw her begin to tear strips from her petticoat; then Dorothy Stafford was ,in front of him, speaking and looking into his face with eves which had lost ai! their aloofness. They held respect; they greeted him as equal to equal. ‘“VYou———’"*’ she began, in a low “You fought for me!’’ “Of course!’’ Noel smiled. all right, but—it might not!”’ ‘“T understand now.’ She looked dows, and then straight at him again. ‘“‘The way is open for you to——great things!”’ Noel Mead looked beyond her at the torn dress and stooping shoulders of Mary Bes- sette. Mary was bandaging the jaw of Tin- ker Smith, who had crushed her mouth with his fist not fifteen minutes before. Yes, the way to great things was open for Noel. He knew what Dorothy meant. Power and money and a high place in the world; and. something else was hinted in her eves, if he proved himself and cared to take it Over there in the corner was little Mary Bessette, who sang and danced in a disreput- able roadhouse. And Mary, with bleeding mouth and gentle hands, was easing the pain of vicious, worthless Tinker Smith, who had struck her. Within the quarter hour Noel had crossed the border into the country of Mary Bessette. It was a fair country, and kind to its’ people. He knew that when time had lined the smoothness of Mary’s face, and when the black curls were gray and lusterless, her kisses would still be like little flowers in the cool of the morning. Noel had learned a do not find; now he lips, made kisses. blossom honor in voice. “Tt turned out wisdom that all men knew that love, not The spirit of Mary would with the years. “YVes,”’ he said to Dorothy Stafford, way is open if a man can gee it—-and courage!”’ Then like a white light there came to him the revelation of a gift that he could make to Mary: here and now jin the presence of this other woman. It would be greater than anything he would ever be able to give her later, no matter what possessions he might have. He walked ‘the has over to her and took her hands, raising her up. She smiled at him wondering; and with his new understanding he read in her eyes that she expected noth- ing from him, nor ever had. “Mary,” he said, in a shaken you marry me?’ She drew back with a quick breath, and stood trembling. Then she -smiled again with her battered lips, and happiness filled her eyes. “If you love me, Noel!” ‘“‘Mary,”’ he cried hoarsely, ‘‘T learned love from you!” ‘And I from thee, with all my soul?” she whispered, in her own language.

One afternoon while the circus was show- ing in a very large town, the biggest lion in the meangerie tent escaped from his cage Wagon, when a new keeper forgot to fasten the lock on the door of his cage. The managerie tent was crowded at the moment, and many people saw the lion stalk forth from the open door of his cage and reach the floor of the tent with one bound. He stood there for a brief moment, trying to make up h# mind which way he would go. He yawned several times in a rather bored way; stretched himself; looked around quick- ly at the crowds of people’ who were running out of the tent in all directions. And then Pompey—for that was the lion’s name—set off at an easy pace toward a rear exit that jopened out at the back of the show grounds. / The first person who saw the lion, when he left his cage, was a lame colored man. He had been looking at the ring-tail monkeys, and had just turned to pass on to the next cage, when the great tawny body of some heavy animal leaped to the ground, and—lI give you my word—that colored man jumped as much as twelve feet straight up in the air! Whee! That lame colored man’s eyes looked like they.would pop right out of his head, for a moment: and the next minute he did that straight leap up in the air, and yelled: . 3 / h = coo” — a xpectation *** ‘yy? “Good lawd! A lion's escapin But that colored man’s: lameness didn't keep him from climbing one of the highest tent poles, right then and there! He dropped both of his crutches and went up a pole as nimbly as a squirrel. The big lion turned his head for a moment. and—I guess he thought the lame man was a squirrel- he was so high up the tent pole by that time. You couldn't have caught him with a shot un. Well, pandemonium broke loose in the circus tent then. The news that a lion had escaped soon spread to the main tent, where thousands of people were waiting for the start of the performance; and outside to the smaller sideshows, and the other outside attractions. About two thousand people tried to crowd the main entrance at the same time, and they soon got jammed and wedged in there so tight that it’s a wonder they wern’t all squeezed to pieces, or else flattened out like playing cards. The big lion crossed the tent where his cage stood; wert out through a rear exit, and then tried to craw] out of the circus tent. But, instead of crawling out of the circus tent, he found himself right in the middle of a great crowd of yelling, strug- gling, excited people, who were all trying to get through the main entrance at the same time. Well, I guess that old lion was as badly scared as anyone in that whole circus. He tried to back out again by the way he had come in. But some excited keepers had al- ready pushed a number of wagon sideboards in behind him, so as to cut off his retreat from that direction. And so—there he was, with the crowd in front of him, and back of him, and on either side of him; and so, what was old Pompey going to do then. you? He couldn’t dig himself into the hard ground underneath. He couldn't climb a pole. like the lame colored man. (Lions can not climb, you kuow.) He just stood there, with his mane bristling, and his lower jaw hang- ing down, showing his long, yellow teeth. He kept looking first one way, and then the other way—trying to see how to get away from this noisy, excited crowd of people. Old Pompey was so scared that his mane bristled up like a scrubbing brush, and he kept Jashing his tail from side to side, the way that lions always do when they are either very angry, or very much excited. And, just at this point, the Bunny Tots came upon the scene, with results as seen in our next story. (Cepyright, 1926. by Edward McCandlisb.) .Fred,.a very smaljl lad, and his sister Annie, who is one year younger, were dis- puting about the picture of a dog. Annie declared that it was woolly, and therefore was acat. Their voices got louder and loud- er, when, finally, Fred, with great dignity, remarked: “IT say ’tis a dog, for mans and boys know — the muchest!"’ I ask SOTPETE COPDOPEP ETT TT PEER) PE TTD UI NPEPERT SERS. °° ae a a The Ride of Judge McLeer.

Listen, my children, and you shall hear, Of the noonday ride of Judge McLeer; A man in his sixties, as bald as a bat (Which fact he disguised ‘neath a wig and a hat); A most doughty man e’en in long, flowing cape, Which only in part could conceal his plump shape. Two round, staring eyes were deep set in his face, Which surmounted a neckcloth of snowy- white lace. Now one August day (’twas a day bright and fair), When walking along with his dignified air, Never heeding the shouting nor hearing the noise, Nor noticing yells of a small crowd of boys, He was seized from behind and into the air borne, With the loud ripping sound of his cape be- ing torn. “Stop! Stop!’’ cried the there was no stop: The back of a bossy cow he was atop, lis feet o’er her neck were sad tossed bv her horns, With little respect for his shoes or his corns! By and by Nhis high hat flew away o’er the ground, : And his cape was still making that strange ripping sound; On, on went that cow, as a matter of course: The judge went on, too, on this unusual horse.

ABLES HARRISON (13). 930 Locust avenue, Charlottesville. Va. A Real Soldier. (Honorable Mention.) The editor of The Post Boys’ and Girls’ Page mentioned a few words about Vernon Dill in a letter on the page. I’m sure the readers would like to hear more about this little soldier. Every summer he and his mother and brother would come to visit Mr. and Mrs. Dill. their grandparents (a next-door neighbor to us). He always wanted to play soldiers with the children in our neighborhood. Some- times he would tell us how he fixed his back- vard at home. He said that he built tents all over the vard. On the tents there were American flags.. There were flags surrounding the yard. Then there were a few flags surround- ing each tent. Inside of the tents were cots and other equipment. Vernon made hats and swords out of card- board and paper. Each soldier carried a sword and wore a hat. When the yard was all §xed up and the soldiers had their material to fight, they look- ed like they were all ready for a big war. They used to play war and have sides. Each side wanted Vernon for the captain. Vernon would tell us these stories and we would sit and listen quietly until the end. When Ver- non went back to Boyertown, Pa., we all missed him and his sapien, One day Mrs. Dill, his grandmother, re- ceived a telegram saying that Vernon passed away suddenly and the funeral was to be Thursday. “Mrs. Dill left for Boyertown the Same night. She stayed a few days. When she came back she told me that her son. Ver- non’s father, told her that when Vernon was lying ill in bed he would watch the children play war in the backyard just like he taught them to. He corrected them when they did anything wrong. He hoped that he could play with the children once more. But said tO say he was getting worse every minute. When he was almost dying hé asked his father to lift the window so he could get a last glimpse of his country’s flag which was fiving gently on the roof of a building across the street. The next morning the papers reported him ° dead. When he was put in his coffin a big silk American flag was put in his arms. LEONA RATZMAN (age 12). 4 ae (: “Y a / (Winner of S1 Prize.) Ever since Mary could remember the high stone wall had stood around the back yard. and Mary convinced herself that she had a very good memory and could remember ever and ever so far back. Mary was 9. “Going to be 10 soon,’’ she would say, with a cute shake of her head. It was not often, however, that she would say so. Very few people ever came her way. She spent her time playing ‘‘school’’ in the walled-in back vard. Sundays, when she went to church, was the only time she went beyond the house or vard. Aunt Grace took care of her: she ‘had ever since Mary’s father’s death. Aunt Grace was a puzzle to Mary. She took care of Mary, as far as Mary’s health was concerned, but she made’ her discontinue school. She never allowed Mary the com- panionship of other girls, but kept her in- side the yard. Mary noticed this because when her father was living she went out whenever she wanted to. . Another thing about Aunt Grace was that she always made a fuss with whoever called. Sometimes she drove ‘the caller away with a broom. if Once when Mary was playing ‘‘school’’ in the back yard she heard a voice call her. “Hello there, blue eyes!’’ came the sweet- est voice Mary had ever heard. The blue eyes spoken of were raised in surprise. They saw a little girl seated on the limb of a tree whose branches rose above the wall. In each hand the girl had an apple; one of these she threw to Mary. “Catch!”’ “Oh, my. but you are fine at catching.” exclaimed a girl who had just succeeded in climbing to the top of the wall. “Oh. what a pretty one!’’ exclaimed Mary. “Do you want me to throw it back to you?” “Oh; no, no,’ said the girl, surprised. “Keep it.’ ‘But where shall I keep it?” ‘‘Have you never seen an apple before?’ “Never. Aunt told me apple sauce came from apples, but she never showed me an apple.”’ A peal of laughter greeted her as she fin- ished, and the wall which had seemed so dead before was alive with girls. An hour later when the girls said good-by. Mary felt as though life had departed with them. A month passed. Every day. from their first. meeting, the girls had spent the time between supper and bedtime together. When August came the girls seemed sad. They still held meetings, but all joy, all gladness had departed. “You seem different Mary remarked. | “It’s because we worry so much you, Mary.’’ “Me! What do you worry about me for?” _ “Where will you spend your summer vaca- tion? That’s what's been worrying us.”’ “My summer vacation?’’ “Yes, where will you go this month? We had hoped you -might go to our camp in Maine.”’ ' A week later Mary was enjoying the sports of swimming. tennis and canoéing. Mary understood now why she was never allowed to leave the house except on Sundays. The woman who had taken care of her was not her aunt as she told Mary, but a maid of Mary’s aunt. On hearing of the death of Mary’s father the maid presented herself as Mary’s aunt, thinking she would receive the fortune she had often heard Mary’s father tell her aunt she would receive at her father’s death. The parents of the girls who had made friends with Mary brought the case to court and thus freed Mary of the house and walled- in back yard., ADELINE AUDREY HEYSER (17). 3348 Mt.

Today is the day before the wedding. My mistress came today and after she had wa- tered me she took from her pocket a pair of scissors. Oh, how I dread those things. I knew at once what was going to happen to me, but I tried to bear up bravely, because it was for those soft hands that had cared for me so tenderly. Oh, how it hurt to be cut; but I soon for- got because [I was carried into the house and to a cool place. I was put with other roses that were just like me. These roses were proud and haughty. They said it was an insult to have to be associated with common garden roses. They had been raised by experts that knew how to make them most beautiful. I was humbled and downcast, but I re- membered that none of these roses had been tenderly cared for by fair Cecelia. Com- pared to this they had nothing, so I became the proudest of them all. somehow, lately,” about The next day I got the surprise of my’ young life.

In addition to the prize ten honorable men- tions will be given for the ten best essays received besides the prize-winning one.

(Honorable Mention.) ‘Where are we going?’’ I thought, as we rode ajong the dusty road. As if in answer to my thoughts, my father said: “Well, Marion, where do you think we afe going ?”’ Just then I saw a sign ahead: ‘‘Welcome to Thousand Islands.’”’ Then I knew. Thou- sand Islands. We boarded a very nice boat for the cruise among the islands. We passed many lovely homes before we got well into the river. The largest island is twelve miles long, the smallest eight. We went through a very marrow channel, just wide enough for the boat. Next the captain told us the story of the castle we were approaching. He said that the wife of a very rich man wanted a summer home among the islands. ‘So she had her home patterned after a very old and historic castle on the Rhine. When it was almost finished the lady died. Her husband never had the workmen finish it. There it stands just as the workmen left their tools. The next house we came to was a beauti- ful home located on a very pretty island. The front of the house was in the United States, the back in Canada. We then went to the dock. It was alto- gether a very pleasant and enjoyable trip. MARION JACKSON (age 14). 3912 New Hampshire avenue, Washington, D. C. - _Macfarland Junior High.

My back is so tired from carrying this bundle such a long distance; my limbs are even aching and just think of it, I still have at least one-half the way to continue.” | A poorly-dressed youth of about 16 years of age was seen walking down a hot, dusty road of Columbus, Ga., about midday. He paused and then sat down beneath a large, shady oak to rest a while. In a wee bit of time a farmer of a nearby house was passing by. He saw the boy look- ing 86 droopy and sleepy. He stopped a few seconds to speak with him. ‘‘My lad, what is the trouble?”’ asked the man. “Oh, mister, my people no longer love me; they call me names, tell me I am good for nothing, treat me cruel, give me little to eat.
