Hurney Indorsed for Chaplain; MacNider and Drain Speakers. Maj. Gen. Amos A. Fries, of the National Press Club post, last night was elected commander of the local department of the American Legion. Sharing importance with the elec- tion was the drastic action taken by the convention in dealing with the problem of the American Legion auxiliary. The department voted to with- draw recognition of the auxiliary until it has ‘‘set its house in order.’’ For the last year and a half the aux- iliary has been split into two bitter factions, one composed of six units and the other of three units. Mrs. Thacker V. Walker, head of the “‘de jure’’ faction composed of the six units, expressed the opinion the action of the department probably would cause the auxiligry to cisband. Elected On First Ballot. The election of Gen. Fries in comparison with past elections was a “love feast.’’ He won out on the: first ballot, receiving 40 votes to 21 for his only rival, Harlan Wood. After Gen. Fries’ victory had been announced from the platform, Wood stood up on his chair and moved that the election be made unanimous. The result was a wild outburst of cheering. Gen. Fries carried his entire slate to victory. He said afterward that in hisopinion, the legion was just beginning to find itself. ' He predict- ed that from now on it would exert more and more influence on the United States just as the Grand Army of the Republic once did. Theodore Cogswell, of the Augus- tus Gardner post, was elected first vice commander, receiving 35 votes to 26 for his opponent, J. Thad Ba- ker, of the Sergt. Jasper post. Charles Hillegiest, of the Quentin Roosevelt post, was elected second vice commander, defeating Thomas A. Walsh, of the Vincent B. Costello post. The vote was 39 to 23. Esther V. Hall. of the Jacob Jones post, was elected third vice commander over Alice Prentiss, of the Jane A. Delano post, the vote being 35 to 26. Mitchell Named Delegate. Paul J. McGahan, of the National Press club post; was reelected na- tional] committeeman defeating Frank L. Peckham, of the Tank Corps post, by a vote of 34 to 27. William Wolff Smith, of the Na- tional Press Club post, was elected alternate committeeman over F, F. Miller, of the Bureau of Engraving post. William Mitchell, famous critic of the army air service and a mem- ber of the Vincent B. Costello post, was one of the six persons elected delegates to the national conven- tion of the legion, which will take place in Philadelphia in October. The other five delegates clected were Howard S. Fisk, Esther V. Hall, T. N. Templeton, Harlan Wood, and Joseph J. Idler. Capt. Julius I. Peyser, the outgoing com- mander, and the new commander, Gen. Fries, automatically became delegates. Alternate delegates elected were the Rev. Francis J. Hurney, chap- lain of the local department; Helen C. MeCarty, Joseph T. Daly, W. A. Kehoe, R. M. Zacharias, F. G. Frazier,- William F.: Franklin, and Floyd Wooley. Indorse Hurney For Chapiain. The department voted unani- mously to support Father Hurney for national chaplain of the legion. He was a chaplain in*the navy in the war, and thug far no navy veteran has held the office of natianal chaplain in the legion. It was a great night for the legion hosts. The legion spirit was rampant, . Those who had voted for Harlan Wood, forgot their disap- pointment and set up a rousing cheer for Gen. Fries. While there ‘were one or two who remained bit- ter and talked feelingly of ‘‘deals” having been made, none of the, bit- terness was evidenced in the audi- torium. Two past. national commanders of the legion addressed the conven- tion, Col. Hanford MdcNider, As- sistant Secretary of War, and Col. _ | (CONTINUED ON PAGE 19, COLUMN 3.) é ’ i ‘i.

MAS, FERGUSON LOSES IN TEXAS RUN-OFF VOTE Woman Governor Is Led by Moody Nearly 2 to 1 on Incomplete Returns. ONLY 2 OTHER CONTESTS ee Ce Dallas, Tex., Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Dan Moody, youthful red-haired at- torney general, swept the Fergu- sons out of political power in to- day’s Democratic run-off primary in Texas. Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson was overwhelmingly defeated for re- nomination on the face of incom- plete but conclusive returns. Moody, as standard bearer of the party, will be the next governor of the Lone Star State, nomination on the Democratic ticket being equiva- ent to election in November. With returns in from nearly all of the counties in the State, most of them incomplete, Moody was leading ‘the woman governor by nearly 2 to 1. Mrs. Ferguson had gained slightly from earlier returns. The count, tabulated by the Texas election bureau, from 223 out of 252 counties, with 49 complete, gave: Moody, 417,180; Ferguson, 211,958. In the straightout contest today between the attorney general and the Fergusons, Moody showed great- er strength than he did in the elim- ination primary in July, when he rolled up more than 120,000 votes more than ‘‘Ma.’’ Assured of his success tonight, Moody called upon Democrats of the State to lay aside the bitter- ness of the campaign. He said he did not regard the verdict as a personal victory, but rather saw “the complete triumph of the prin- ciples of government advocated in this campaign.’’ James E. Ferguson, husband and adviser of Mrs. Ferguson, and Moody’s chief political enemy, re- fused to concede his wife’s defeat or make any statement. What ef- fect, if any, the outcome would have on Gov. Ferguson’s announced decision after the July primary to resign this fall, could not be learned. The Fergusons charged during the campaign that a victory for Moody would be a victory for the Ku Klux Klan. Moody, who first came into prominence by his prose- cution of an alleged klan flogging case several years ago, declared, however; that the klan issue is (CONTINUED ON PAGE 10, COLUMN ?) Government Indorses Visit of Queen Marie Bucharest, Roumania, Aug. 8 (By A. P.).—The Roumanian for- eign office today notified the Asso- ciated Press that the government cordially indorses the proposed visit of Queen Marie to the United S‘ates this coming month. The rumor that the government had in any way opposed the queen’s plans is officially denied. The date of Queen Marie’s de- parture and the itinerary of her journey will be decided upon ufter the return of King Ferdinand to Bucharest, probably the third week in September. 20 Dead, Many Hurt 2 Simla, India, Aug. 28 (By A.

BALLOTING SPEEDED IN LAST FEW HOURS iia. Trent aiid Other Locations Lost Sight Of in Struggle o Leavers. Piling up an ever-increasing lead, supporters of the proposed South- west site had raced to a victorious finish in The Post market-site poll, when ballots received by the mar- ket site editor had been counted after the poll closed at 6 o'clock last night. Other ballots may be received today bearing a postmark earlier than 6 o'clock last night, but the number of these is not expected to influence materially the com- plexion of the result. When the count of the ballots sent to the market site editor of The Post had been made, the South- west site supporters had registered more votes than were cast for all of the other sites combined. The midcity site supporters ran a distanced but dogged second. The result of the balloting The Post poll was as follows: Southwest site, 19,307. Midcity site, 9,434. Patterson or Eckington site, 59. Various other sites, 82. The total of ballots cast in the poll was 28,882. The site registered in the poll as the most popular selection was pro- posed to the National Capital park and planning commission by Wris- ley Brown, president of the Poto- mac Freight Terminals Co., and is located along the Southwest water- front. e ee Other Sites Far Behind. By comparison with the vote for the two leading sites the other suggested sites were reduced to un importance. The Baltimore & Ohio railroad had proposed relocation of the farmers’ market and the whole- sale and commission house rows in Eckington, near its freight yards, on the Patterson tract. Whatever the fervidness of the support given this site by the railroad company, the general public failed absolutely to respond in The Post poll. The number of votes cast in favor of various other sites, advanced indi- vidually by balloters. was larger than the number of votes cast for the Eckington or Patterson gite tract. Beyond doubt The Post market site poll showed definitely. that the general public wanted the Center market where it would be easily accessible. Persons voting were al- most vehement in their disapproval of selection of any site which might be difficult to reach. Seek Further Expressions, With the close of the poll indica- tions were that none of the leaders in the movements favoring one site or another would rest on their showing in the voting. They are convinced that the reasons which prompted them to sponsor one site or another are good reasons, mer- iting the support of large groups in to seek other if less effective ways (CONTINUED ON PAGE 18, COLUMN 2.) MAINE FEELS QUAKE: 2 SHOCKS IN ALASKA ee Many in. New England Rush From Their Homes; Rumble Precedes Temblor. Portland, Maine, Aug. 28 (By A. P.).—An earthquake of consider- jable intensity, although not so s&e- vere as that of a year ago, when virtually all New England was af- fected, shook part of Maine late to- day. The shock was felt ‘most in Franklin, and a few towns in Som- erset county. The tremors in Oxford and Franklin counties were preceded by a prolonged faraway rumble. alarmed were the residents of Ox- ford county towns that many of them rushed from their homes, At Rangle, boats rocked on the lakes surface.

Forces Monroe Doctrine Hinders League on Nicaragua Plea; at Bluefields 200 Sailors and Marines Are Landed to Protect Life and Property From Revolutionary Soldiers. (By Associated Press.) Two hundred American sailors and marines have been landed by the cruiser Galveston at Bluefields, Nicaragua, to protect foreign life and property. The landing was made after the Nicaraguan governor at Bluefields had informed the Galveston’s com- mander that the Nicaraguan gov- ernment forces were in no position to guarantee protection of life and property against a revolutionary force which is marching upon Blue- fields. Latest reports from American official sources in Nicaragua indi- cate that the revolutionists’ attack on Bluefields will be successful. The last previous American land- ing at Bluefields was effected May 7 by marines and sailors from the cruiser Cleveland. A similar situa- tion existed at that time, and the American naval commander imme- diately declared Bluefields a neutral zone. It is expected the Galveston’s commander will take similar action to prevent fighting in any zone where it would endanger foreign interests. Managua, Nicaragua, Aug. 28 (By A.

Hands-off Policy Is Likely to Be Followed Rather Than Running Risk of Complications With U. S. By ALBERT W. FOX. The League of Nations either will keep hands off the dispute be- tween Mexico and Nicaragua or risk complications over the Mon- roe doctrine with the government of the United States, according to the consensus in official and diplo- matic circles here. The prevailing belief is that the hands-off policy will prevail. Theoretically, the league would have not only the right but the solemn duty of taking cognizance of the dispute and perhaps even going to war with Mexico if that pation refused to permit the league to operate and went counter to the league’s wishes by taking aggres- sive steps toward Nicaragua. The ambiguous clause in the cov- enant respecting the Monroe doc- trine admittedly can be interpreted to give the league the right to in- tervene on the ground that pre- venting a clash between Mexico and Nicaragua does not ‘‘affect the va- lidity of international engagements, such as treaties of arbitration or regional understandings like the Monroe doctrine for securing the maintenance of peace,’’ and there- fore does not violate article 21 of the covenant. But from a practical standpoint, , attempts of the league to function (CONTINUED ON PAGE 4. COLUMN 4.) MAN SHOT, TWO INJURED TAKING HIM 10 HOSPITAL — OT Wife and Driver Hurt as Auto Crashes Into Street Car and Truck. ROW OVER STILL BLAMED Richard Hunt, 36 years old, 2101 First street southwest, was shot twice and injured probably fatally during an argument at his home yesterday afternoon. Police of the Fourth precinct are holding James McConnell, 50 years old, a roomer at Hunt’s home, who is alleged to have fired the shots. While taking the injured man to Emergency hospital, an automobile driven by Russell Breeden, 35 years old, 1027 G street northwest, was in collision with a street car and an automobile truck at Third street and Pennsylvania. avenue north- west. Hunt was thrown from the car and severely shaken up, his wife was seriously injured and Breeden suffered severe cuts on the temple in the crash. The injured were taken to Emer- gency hospital, where Dr. Joseph Larkin’ operated on Hunt imme- diately. One of the bullets had pierced Hunt’s left lung, causing in- ternal hemorrhages. The other bul- let struck his left arm. Besides the bullet wounds Hunt was suf- fering from shock and loss of blood. Mrs. Hunt was treated for. broken ribs and severe cuts on the head and body. The shooting, police reported, was the outgrowth of a series of ‘quarrels resulting from the opera- tion of an illicit whisky manufac- turing plant in Hunt’s home. The men, according to police, were ac- customed to hiding the liquor man- ufactured in the house’ in the thick- ets along the water front. Yesterday McConnell accused Hunt of taking some of his whisky from a clump of weeds near the river. bank, police asserted. The men engaged in an argument, dur- ing which hot words were ex- ‘|changed. Finally McConnell drew a pistol, fired twice and fled, police said. He was arrested five hours later hiding in a woodshed in the rear of 1331 Third street south- west by Precinct Detectives Howard Ogle, F. W. Wise and W. F. Burke. Police of the Fourth precinct re- ported that they found u 200-gal- lon still, 150 gallons of mash and 2 gallons of whisky in Hunt’s home.

MISSISSIPPI.BOAT IS SUNK Houma, La., Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Ten persons, residents of a fishing camp on Felicity island, near Bayou La Fourche, were drowned in the waves from the Gulf of Mexico,. which submerged the island Wed- nesday night as the tropical hurri- cane swept in from the gulf. Two others, members of the same camp, still are missing and . believed drowned. The dead are: Three members of a Noquin family, father, mother and a little girl; Claude Dupont, of Houma; two members of a Bou- vier family from Bayou la Fourche, and four other unidentified men. Charles Dupont, sog of Claude Du- pont and a man named Dupre, still are missing. Another family of Noquins from the same community told of taking refuge in a skiff which they tied to an oak tree during the storm. For a time dur- ing the night, they said, they could see the lights in the fishing camp as the skiff bobbed about, straining at the rope’s end. Later the lights disappeared, and when morning came, the camp was gone. —— — New Orleans, Aug. 28 (By A. P.).

S., Executive Holds. CONSIDERATION GIVEN TO A NEW SOLUTION Measures Designed to Stop the Reported Flouting of Americans’ Rights. Special to The Washington Post. Paul Smiths, N. Y., Aug. 28.— Whether more forceful measures are to be adopted by the adminis- tration in dealing with the Mexican government in regard to its con- tinued flouting of American rights in that country will be determined by President Coolidge after his forthcoming conference at White Pine camp with James R. Sheffield, American Ambassador to Mexico. The President’s policy so far has been one of protest and demand for satisfaction whenever an American is killed in Mexico or American property is expropriated. It has not achieved the desired result of put- ting an end to the killings and dispossessions. The State Depart- ment protests have been answe-ed by the Mexican government with evasions and promises and the dis- regard of American treaty rights has continued. Mr. Coolidge regards his policy, however, as having been attended with considerable succes#@when the difficulty of the situation is appre- ciated. In cabinet meetings the President has indicated his belief that he is accomplishing the ut- most that could be expected in protection of American rights in Mexico short of invoking measures the logical result of which might be armed intervention. Policy Weak, Some Hold. The administration policy has been branded weak and ineffective by various groups of American own- ers of Mexican properties, by some American church organization lead- ers since the outbreak of the con- flict between church and state in Mexico, and by many other Ameri- cans who are filled with indigna- tion at the spectacle of the inability of the great American republic to compel respect for the rights of its nationals in an adjoining country. That avowed interventionists should hold such views is conceded by Cool- idge defenders to be logical and nat- ural, but that any one who is not ready to go the full length to armed intervention as a last resort should find fault, officials profess to find exceedingly puzzling. The administration is not prepar- ed to entertain the proposal of in- tervention or of any course of ac- tion predicated upon intervention as a last resort. In the views the President has outlined to his ad- visers he has indicated convictions that armed interference south of the Rio Grande in protection of Ameri- can rights. would be more detrimen- tal than beneficial, and, moreover, would not be approved by the ma- jority of the people on the basis of the situation as it now presents it- self. There is very little intervention- ist sentiment in the country, in the opinion of thecdministration. This belief was strengthened by the inci- dent of the Knights of Columbus demand that the government “put an end’”’ to the persecution of Amer- icans in Mexico.

MAGAZINE, ROTOGRAVURE, WALTER SPENGE WIN LONG-DISTANCE oWIM Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. Star Beats Clarence Ross, 1925 Winner, in “n-a Race. -- NEW YORK A. C. GETS CUP Walter Spence, star swimmer of the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. team, crawl-stroked his way to a stirring victory in the annual long-distance swim held yesterday under the auspices of the Washington Canoe club. Spence, a short, powerfully-built merman of 24 years, was going strong at the finish and was not visibly fatigued when he clam- bered onto the float of the canoe club. His time was 33 minutes 45 3-6 seconds. His first act was to extend a helping hand to a swim- mer who had been seized with a cramp. The race was scheduled to be- gin from Chain bridge, but the re- cent heavy rains had converted the water there into something akin to a whirlpool. The start, there- fore, was made from a swimming hole known as Sandy beach, just above Fletcher’s cove. This is about three-fourths of a mile from Chain bridge and two and one-half miles from Key bridge, where the race ended. A swift current helped the swimmers along. Five thousand or more persons watched the race. Most of them were in canoes, launches and other craft. Others stood on the old Aqueduct bridge to watch the fin- ish, while the largest single crowd assembled at the Washington Canoe club. Spence led. the 41 swimmers in the race virtually the entire two and a half miles. Of the 41, 7 dropped out before the end. Clarence Ross, of the New York Athletic club, who won the race last year, followed Spence across the finish line. Behind him came Leo, Giebel, a member of the same club.

Mr* Lissberger proposed that the purse be $25,000. Miss Ederle said she would consider the challenge when she received it. The time made by Mrs. Corson in her swim across the English channel was 15 hours and 28 min- utes, or just 57 minutes more than the time of Mise 4 eerie. Crowd Cheers Mrs. Corson. Dover, Aug. 28 (By Mrs. Clemington Corson, of New York, a trim little woman, 28 years old and the mother of two chil- dren, this afternoon waded up the beach a mile east of Dover, tired but triumphant, for she had con- quered the English channel. Mrs. Corson entered the water at Cape Gris-Nez at 11:32 o’clock Friday night and reached the Eng- lish shore under Shakpspeare cliff at 3 o'clock this afternoon, her time being 15 hours and 28 minutes. Several thousand persons, who, from the cliffs, had watched the plucky American woman battle her way to the shore, rushed to the strand to greet her with cheers, for her feat in many Ways Was as re- markable as Miss Ederle‘s faster swim across the channel three weeks ago. “It was glorious! I've realized my life ambition as a swimmer,” said Mrs. Corson to the Associated Press a little later. “I didn’t lower Miss Ederle’s time, but I swam the channel and that’s enough for me. I take great pride in achiéving the ambition of all distance swimmers, and I’m proud for the sake of my youngsters in New York that their mother has accomplished the task she set out to do.”’ Husband Rows Across. Glowing in reflected glory at her side stood her husband, Cleming- ton Corson, who in a dory rowed near his wife all across the chan- nel, refusing to allow any one else to take the oars. *“She’s the finest girl and the best swimmer in the world,” said the proud husband. Shifting tides forced Mrs. Corson to swim approximately 40 miles across the channel. Because of the criticism which followed Miss Eder- le’s swim, Mrs. Corson dispensed with an attending tug. The motor- boat which accompanied her kept from 20 to 70 yards away, and her husband in his rowboat likewise was careful not to draw too near. No swimmers entered the water with Mrs. Corson at any time to pace her or for company. Her only nourishment in the whole swim was two pints of hot choolate, four lumps of sugar and a few crackers. Two Men Are Defeated. Mrs.‘Corson not only conquered the channel but defeated two men swimmers who left the French shore before she did.

One of the inelastic rules laid down by Director of Traffic M. O. Eldridge was suspended during his absence from the city on vacation yesterday, and Inspector E. W. Brown, commanding officer of the police traffic bureau, gave John S. Swan a permit to drive his em- ployer’s automobile. Swan was the colored chauffeur haled into court recently for driv- ing without a permit. He pleaded that he would lose his employment if penalized, and the judge told him to get a permit and go his way. When he went to the traffic bureau he found that there was a rule, im- posed by the traffic director, that any one caught driving without a permit should be denied issuance of one for 60 days, as an extrajudicial penalty. The driver made the same plea he had made in court and Act- ing Traffic Director I. C. Moller au- thorized Inspector Brown to ignore the rule and issue the permit.

AUTO MISHAP HASTENS INSTALLATION OF FIVE Order Delayed Since April, Because of Disagreement on Appearance. Immediate utility has defeated ultimate beauty in a contest that has been waged for four months betwéen the commission of fine arts and the traffic department of the District government, Art has prevented execution of an order passed last April by the commissioners to protect five load- ing platforms tn Connecticut avenue with flashing beacons similar to the one at Dupont circle. The beacon is a blot on the landscape, in the opinion of the commission of fine arts. | | But when, Thursday night, a motorist drove over the platform at L street and fractured a man’s skull, following which he sped away unidentified, Acting Director of Traffic I. C. Moller went to Charles, Moore, chairman of the commis- sion to protect the District from unsightly structures, and pleaded need for immediate safeguarding of life. Moore agreed to a truce and yes- terday Moller ordered five flashing beacons of the esthetically disap-, proved type. They will be erected as soon as delivered, with the un- derstanding that when an agree- ment is reached on a less hideous piece of machinery, the latter will be ‘substituted. Order Adopted April 20. April 20 the District commission- ers adopted the following order: “Ordered, that five loading plat- forms be constructed in the road- way of Connecticut avenue north- west, located as follows: North- bound, the near sides of L, De Sa- les and M streets; southbound, at the near sides of L and K streets. “That these platforms be con- structed from District funds at an estimated cost of $550 each. “That a flashing beacon on an ornamental post be placed at one end of each platform and that a fixed light on a similar ornamental post be placed at the other end of each platform, the flashing beacon to be of a type approved by the di- rector of traffic. “That the design of the loading platforms and the ornamental posts be approved by the Commission on Fine Arts before construction.”’ Platform Designs Approved. The design of the platforms was readily agreed to and’ they were. installed, built of concrete. But-the fine arts body sald the posts would not do. The traffic department agreed that they were not beauti- ful, but said that a beautiful post might not be sufficiently striking in appearance to ward off motorists. “We want to protect pedestri- ans,” said the traffic chiefs, ‘‘but we also want to protect motorists and not place posts in the street that they will not see and will bump into.’ A debate arose as to which pos- sessed the higher visibility, beauty or ugliness. Municipal Architect A. L. Harris mixed in the fracas. He designed a granite post four and a half feet igh, two feet four inches at the ase and tapering slightly. It was sightly to look upon, all agreed. But the flashing beacon is centered eight and a half feet above the ground. Hideous, But Effective. “The light has to be high enough to be seen at a distance above in- tervening traffic,’’ Moller. said. adding: “I agree that the Dupont circle beacon is hideous, but it is the only thing that has yet been designed that is effective. We have not had a single accident at that spot since it was erected last March.”’ e So deadlock ensued until Friday, the day following the accident at Connecticut avenue and L street. Then Moller said to Moore: “Let's call a truce. We must have protection at once. You can’t suggest an effective design. I can’t suggest an artistic design. Let’s move for safety and forget art until we can come to an agreement, fol- lowing which we may serve art and safety simultaneously.” “I’m with you,”” said Moore. ‘“‘Art comes first, but safety comes firster.’’ Arrested on Gaming Charge. Charged with permitting gaming, Samuel Rappaport, 38 years old, 1030 Four-and-a-half street south- west, was arrested yesterday in a raid on rooms 227 and 228 Mary- land building, 1410 H street north- west. Rappaport was reléased in $100 collateral. -- ee ne From -Our Hearts © we thank the many friends for the touch- ing remembrances and felicitations extended to us on our golden wedding anniversary.

Pyles, alias Han- nah Coz and Mary E. Reed, yester- day was held in $1,500 bond for the grand jury on a charge of for- gery. “ Five charges of cashing bad checks were continued for two weeks to permit investigation~by the probation officer by Judge Hitt in police court. Mrs. Pyles said she had been rooming with another girl, and that both being broke, the other girl per- suaded her to cash the checks. Judge Hitt ordered the probation Officer to investigate her case. She was committed to the house of de- tention. She pleaded guilty to all the charges. DETECTIVES DETAIN MAN AN MISSING BABY CASE W. M. Daniel Is Said to Have Visited Mrs. Cunningham’s Room Before _ Birth. POLICE SEARCH SEWERS As a result of the intensive inves- tigation being conducted by police in an effort to solve the mysterious disappearance of the baby son of Mrs. Virginia Cunningham, 31 years old, 318 Ninth street northeast, De- tectives Patrick O’Brien and Thomas Nalley yesterday arrested William M. Daniel, 24 years old, 1330 Quincy street northwest. Daniel is being held on a charge of investigation. Police say that he visited Mrs. Cunningham .in her room Thursday night and departed at approximately 9 ’clock. The baby was born several hours after hia departure, Mrs. Cunningham told police. Daniel told police, they said, that he learned that Mrs. Cunning- ham, whom he knew well, was ill and decided to visit her. She was in great pain during his visit, he said, and he soon departed. Mrs. Cunningham and her room- mate, Miss Thelma Jenkins, 22, were placed under arrest Friday. Mrs. Cunningham is being held at Gallinger hospital. She told police that two men whom she does not know came to her house shortly after the child’s birth and took the baby away. She said she believed them to be a doctor and his assis- tant. Miss Jenkins was in Alexan- dria visiting Thursday night, police said, and knew nothing about the birth of the child, With the aid of firemen and em- ployes of the sewer department, Detectives O’Brien and Nally con- ducted an all-day search of the sewers in northeast. Washington yesterday in quest of the missing baby. The search proved futile. Mrs. Cunningham is confident that her child is still alive, police said. Boiler Inspector Submits Report | E. F.

He said that during the twelve months 449 boilers were inspected, of which 5 were condemned.

Julian Brylawski, BREACH IN THEATER WAGE WAR WIDENS BOTH REMAIN FIRM Managers and Operators Fail to Agreee or Accept Compromises. CONFERENCE TOMORROW WILL BE LAST EFFORT Acting for Playhouses, Calls De- mands Impossible. ee The breach in the wage dispute, between the motion picture opera-| tors and theater managers widened the factions arose a few weeks ago. The operators’ present contract of $65 for a 44-hour week with three men filling those hours,- ex- pires Wednesday. They are de- manding $75 for a 40-hour week with a fourth man in the booth. A strike is threatened by the opera- tors if their demands are not met and an added threat of calling out union musicians and stage hands in a ‘sympathy strike” has been made. A. Julian Brylawski, chairman of the managers’ wage scale commit- tee, and Thomas Reed, president of the Motion Picture Operaters Pro- tective union, have failed to agree on a compromise. Meetings were held four nights last week,and each faction rejected the other’s peace overtures. Counter Proposition Made. The theater operators made a proposition of $67 for an eight-hour day to the operators, and Mr. Reed rejected the offering yesterday. Mr. Reed submitted a compromise to the managers upon rejecting the proposition, and a meeting of both factions will be held tomorrow at 1:30 o’clock in a last-minute ef- fort to calm the troubled waters. “We are still negotiating and a walk-out may be averted,’’ Mr: Bry- lawski said, “but in the event of a walk-out we are prepared. No Washington theater will close.’’ The demands of the operators, if met, would set a high-water mark in local wages, and for that reason will never be met, Mr. Brylawski stated. He intimated that the latest compromise proposition of- fered by the booth men would be emphatically denied, The preparations made by the managers to offset the threats of operators consists of calling in: all operators .in the. city who, accord- ing to the managers, are capable of filling the positions in case of a strike as soon as the operators walk out. Operators Stand Solid. On the other hand, the operators, | headed. by Mr. Reed, are solid in itheir stand for higher wages and fewer hours. The proposition sub- mitted by the managers are far re- moved from the figures demanded by the operators, and if the ques- tion is to be settled by compromise the ‘‘bait of the managers will have to be fattened.”’ If both factions stick to their respective offers and demands, the Washington movie goer may find his favorite theater picketed on Thursday. Chinaman’s’ Estate $10,000. Letters testamentary on the es- tate of Lee Yuen, who died May 16, were granted yesterday by Justice Siddons in probate court to Lee K. Chung and Lee K, Fong, sons of the deceased, and to Lee Ling, as ex- ecutors. The estate is valued at more than $10,000. Yuen was also survived by another son, Lee K.

Tonia, Mich., Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Apparently having scattered in va- rious directions. 20 of the 24 con- victs who escaped from the State reformatory here this morning after overpowering 20 guards, were still at liberty tonight. Three were re- captured before noon and tonight were back in the institution in soli- tary confinement and facing the pos- sibility of ‘three years’ additional imprisonment for their short free- dom. One was captured late today. The break, shortly after 1:30 o’clock this: morning, was one of the boldest in the history of Michi- Zan penal institutions. For a time five men, ringleaders in the escape, were in virtual possession of the prison. Among the leaders were Benton Ford and Franklin Todd, of Toledo, sentenced for holding up the Hadley State bank in Lapee piped s0me months ago.

Evidently by prearrangement a disturbance was created in one of the two prison dormitories. Guards attracted by the commotion were overpowered and stripped o ftheir uniforms. Two of the five leaders donned uniforms and proceeded to the prison yard where two more guards were over- powered. Working methodically they rounded up other guards about the prison until 20 had been overpow- ered and locked in a cell. With keys taken from the guards, the cells of other prisoners were un- locked. The leaders then went to the office of Roy Sypher, captain of the night guard, where they de- manded keys to the outer gate. Three of the men, Sypher said later, were in favor of-killing him, but one of them, Russell Andrus, sen- tenced from Detroit, dissuaded them. ‘“‘Let’s don’t kill him,’’ An- drus said. ‘‘The captain always has been a pretty square shooter with us.” Guard at Outer Door Beaten. t Instead of using Sypher’s keys, the convicts forced him to order a guard to open the outer door of the administration building. Through this door the prisoners swarmed to the outer gate, where O. Johnson, a guard, was beaten with his own rifle. He was the first armed guard Inside guards are not armed. Before he could re- cover and sound an alarm, 24 of the convicts had flied, some afoot, others in automobiles they seized. Five machines. were taken. Two ‘of them, out of gasoline, were found later, one at Lowell, in Kent county, to the west, and the other at Howell, in Livingstone county, east of here. t| Besides Ford, Todd and Andrus, the t} leaders were Victory Chicky, sen- tenced from Grand Rapids for burglary, and Bert Rice, sentenced from Oakland county, for auto theft.

But, though superficially leaving no scar, the general strike, while accom- plishing nothing, only made things worse for the miners. . I am told, however, that it was something to have been alive just then. To have seen the British people rising once more superbly to the occasion; to have felt again as in the early days of the war, emo- tion less acute, less tragic, but cu- riously similar, shining through all the anxiety, de- pression and regret. Notwithstand- ing, it is evident that no one with any sanity left would like to see it repeated. If the miners had listen- ed to the advice of the general council, it would never have been called. The British trade union mind is an eminently sane mind, and it foresaw how worse than fu- tile that course would be. The try- out of a general strike has now passed into history, but the miners’ strike still lingers. Today the all- absorbing topic in mining circles and the press is the suspension of the seven-hour act passed in 1919. Before the year 1908 there was a most acute struggle between the miners and the coal owners over the hours of labor. From all one can learn, the conditions of life of the miners up to that time were wretch- ed in the extreme. In many pit- head villages in the northern counties of England, conditions were such that the miners found a decent standard of life impossible. Chief among the evils were the very long hours. te . * By 1908 the Miners’ Federation had become so strong that it was able to insist upon improvements. It persuaded parliament to pass the Coal Miners Regulation act, which provided an 8-hour day. While this bill was passing through parlia- ment, an amendment was _ intro- duced to the effect that the day was to be reckoned from the first cage down to the last cage up. This resulted in adding, on the average, half an hour to the time of the miners who had gone down in the later cages. So that bill really established an 84-hour day. The Miners’ Federation grown, and continued to steadily in strength because, as Lord Haldane has indicated; al- though it is customary in some quarters to abuse trade unions as unmitigated nuisances, many great employers encourage them as the only means of securing collective bargaining with the men. ~ e * 2 had grow Subsequent to the cut in hours, the miners again became restive, EY hw os Do Not Wait Until All Are Leased The Drury 3121 Mt.

As everybody was anxious to avert a strike this. friction culminated in the appointment of a commission to make recommendations, but to no avail. The strike took place. Then a business committee was). named, with Sir Arthur, now Lord, Balfour as chairman, and they made a recommendation that the hours might well be seven instead of eight. They even said they might possibly be reduced to six. This. in 1919, resulted in the/ passage of a law for a seven-hour day, plus one winding time, which made it seven and one-half hours. And that was how the law stood until now. Alas, though, owing to post war conditions, an economic crisis of the first order arose in the coal trade. Each side had their views as to remedies, but there was no get- ting them together. ‘Then last year a subsidy of £23,000,000 was grant- ed and a royal commission appointed to report on the coal industry. A few days ago I heard Frank Hodges, secretary of the International Min- ers federation, say the subsidy was not a success because there was a very unsatisfactory distribution of the money. The purpose of it was to make up the difference between what a colliery could pay and the minimum wage, but, where a pit could pay in full, there was no dis- crimination made, and it also re- ceived the subsidy. . * Hodges was speaking at Toynbee hall. At this settlement in White- chapel, an American seminar is held each year, when there is an atten- dance of about 150 students, school teachers, clergymen, etc., from home. It was a day of real American heat, and the meeting was held in the court yard, an imitation of the Oxford quadrangle, surrounded by the ivy-clad brick walls of the buildings. A representative of the owners spoke there a few days later. The owners’ plaint is that with the hot competition of Germany, France and America they can’t go on as things are without too great loss. They, too, feel that something must be done. One trouble is that the annual output af the British miner on the eve of the strike was only 217 tons per head. In Amer- ica the miner produces an annual output of 655 tons per head. ni The British output has been fall- ing for years, that of the United States and Germany increasing. & * 7. - The economic facts that tell in the owners’ favor are: The loss of export trade due to the develop- ment; of water power, as in Italy, for-example; and the growing use of ofl, as in ships. - en the mines pay unequally, so many being run at a" loss; this .is,, however, par- tially: the owheras’ .6wn fault. They have ‘tot: all kept ‘their plants up to date, and in some cases there is great. sneMelency, in me manage- ment. Undoubtedly there is a very real conviction among the owners that shortening of hours, or increasing of wages, would, by increasing the overhead charges, put up the price of coal and so decrease the selling. The other side answers that the general principle is simple enough; that if an industry can’t pay a liv- ing wage, that industry must be re- organized or disappear. As coal ‘s a basic-industry, it can’t be let disappear, so‘ the only alternative is reorganization. Ship building, engineering, iron, and steel, all interdependent in- dustries, are as hard hit as coal. It would seem that the actual coal- getting will not be remunerative again; but coal extracting, that is, subsidiary industries based on by- products fro coal, will be. fall . The miners feel that labor should have the same privilege in the sub- sidiary companies that it has in the general mining process. As far as the latter is concerned there are two independent accountants, one for the miners’ federation, and one for the owners. But, as soon as the coal is sold that is the end. In the subsidiary companies, miners have no control—the books are never opened. Sir Alfred Mond, conservative, and a big owner and authority on the German system, spoke in the|' house of commons in favor of pub- licity, but was defeated by the ma- jority of his own party. It is regretted by many, sym- pathetic to the miners, that the federation did not accept the re- port of the royal commission. It is claimed by labor, though, that the owners never really committed themselves on that report. * + ~ * Another effort to effect an agree- ment has just been made. For the first time since fhe great dock strike of 1889, a large and influential sec- tion of the churches, both free and established, have laid down condi- tions of a Christian solution, which happens to square more with the miners’ side than the owners’. To an onlooker this seems a great opportunity for the church; a chance of getting back the working Par Reservations Are Now Being Accepted.

The newspapers have carried such headlines as “The church comes into its own.” On the other hand, the govern- ment has twice lately snubbed the church. ston Churchill refused to broadcast the archbishop of Cdnterbury’s terms, which were not for an un- conditional surrender, but for a re- turn to status quo. Then the prime mintefer antici- rather sarcastic remarks about church folks interfering in hard business matters. I find the major- ity of my conservative friends ceho- ing this sentiment. Generally speaking the church’s terms were that both sides should give way and return to atatus quo, and that the subsidy should con- tinue. The concession that the miners are to ballot on is that an independent arbitrator settle the wages if both sides still disagree. August—The miners have reject- ed the bishop’s terms. That seems a pity. ~ There is now an exodus from Mayfair. All those who have not gone to Cowes or the continent are preparing to descend on the Stotch moors for the opening. of the grouse season in the near future: In the meantime the mining dispute seems to have entered on a phase where the deadlock is complete. The miners’ resistance is not likely to crumble yet awhile, and the owners don’t appear to be very re- ceptive. —_——— ee Reserve the in You Like Before It Is Too Late THE ABSECON 1706 T St. N.W.

WITHDRAWAL HINTED BY OTHER SUPPORTERS Only Five Small Nations, So Far, Have Accepted U. S. Reservations. (By Associated Press.) Withdrawal of the Senate’s rati- fication of the world court will be proposed at the coming session of Congress by Senator Trammell (Democrat), Florida, one of those who voted for the resolution of ratification, The Florida senator said yester- day he had“decided to make such @ propesal because of developments in Burope, where an international eonference soon is to convene un- der the auspices of the League of Nations to discuss the acceptabili- ty of the reservations by which Sen- ate ratification of the court proto- eol was qualified. Recently Senator Gooding (Re- publican), Idaho, announced that aithough he had supported the court, he now opposed it because conditions resulting from the French attitude toward the war debts, Senator Trammell said he knew of several other sena- tors who likewise had come to re- gret their support of the court, and would vote for withdrawal, but he named none of them.

Senators are in disagree- ment whether a simple majority, or a two-thirds vote would be re- quired to overthrow the action al- ready taken. At the time the vote of ratifica- tion was taken, Chairman Borah of the foreign relations cqgmmittee and others of the group of irreconcil- ables opposing the court, gave no- tice that the issue was not yet de- cided. They since have made good that threat to carry their fight to the country in a far-flung cam- paign in the _ newspapers and on the stump, When hsaislan Trammell intro- duces the resolution of withdrawal made public by him yesterday it will go to Senator Borah’s commit- tee, a majority of whose members are opposed to the court. Presum- ably the first test of strength would come on the floor-itself, should an attempt be made to get the pro- .posal up for .action. Great Powers Have Not Acted, { Thus far only five small nations have agreed to the Senate reserve- tions, and more than a score of others who have membership in the court, including all the great powers, are withholding a decision pending the outcome of. the conference to be held at Geneva. In his resolution, Senator Trammell said that ‘it is now deemed advisable to rescind’”’ the Senate ratification, since ‘‘the powers signatory to the protocol have not indicated their acceptance of the reservations and understand- ings’’ upon which ratification was based. The resolution would direct the President to ‘‘withdraw all notes and communications’’ addressed to the nations holding membership in the court. This would cancel the circular note sent out by the State Department setting forth the con- ditions of American adherence, and would leave the United States just where it was before American membership first was proposed. U.3. TIP? ALLOWANCE FAIR, OAY ROTEL MEN Higher Than Average, Porters Assert; Sum for Laundering Requires Figuring. ~—-----—— CO rl TRAVELER SHARES COST Special to The Washington Post. Chicago, Aug. 28.—Hotel man- agers and red caps here believe the government scale for ‘‘tips’’ is satis- factory and will average up well with the voluntary gratuities given by travelers. According to the gov- ernment scale, soon to be published, an agent of the government is allowed 60 cents a day for tips to waiters, 30 cents to hotel maids and bell hops, 25 cents for the Pullman porter, 15 cents for the first piece of luggage handled by the red caps and a dime for each additional piece. “That's better than the average we get for toting bags,’’ said ‘‘Little Joe,”’ a red cap at the Lasalle sta- tion. ‘“‘The average tip is a dime and the average load is three pieces.”’ The government allowance of $1.40 for laundry will require some close figuring, especially in hot weather. Uncle Sam also allows $1.25 a week for pressing garments. The average charge in hotels for pressing a suit is $1, so if the offi- cial expects to look spruce every day, he will have to dig into his| own money for the second pressing. As far as the laundry is concerned, the government official could get two shirts, two pairs of socks and one union suit laundered for the allowance. Handkerchiefs, pajamas and other articles would have to be paid for out of his own pocket. Army Seeking Single Shade for Uniforms Recommendations are being pre- pared for uniform shades in khaki or wool clothing for infantry units, it was learned yesterday, and an arrangement will be made where- by the quartermaster corps will ap- portion uniforms of the same shade to men of the same regiment until the war-time stocks are exhausted and a uniform shade obtained. It was explained that there are several shades of both khaki and olive drab and indiscriminate issue as to color results in a variegated appearance of a unit in formation. ARMY ASSIGNMENTS.

fF CONN. RODGERS h Dead Air Hero Taken to Havre - de Grace for Funeral Cere- mony Tomorrow. SERVICES AT ARLINGTON TUESDAY AFTERNOON & Seinen of Officer on _ Transpacific Flight Aid in Carrying Coffin. Havre de Grace, Md., Aug. 28 (By A. P.)i—The body of Comman- der John Rodgers, who was killed in an airplane fall at the Philadel- phia navy yard yesterday, arrived here by motor from Philadelphia tonight. The funeral car carrying the commander’s body arrived at the Rodgers homestead at Zion Hill, a Suburb 2 miles north of here, at 6:10 p. m. Eastern standard time. It will remain in the home, which has sheltered the Rodgers family for 100 years, until Monday after- noon, when brief funeral services for the family only will be held at 3:30 o’clock. After the private services at Zion Hill, Commander Rodgers’ body will be taken to Arlington National cemetery for burial with military honors. Accompanying the body from Philadelphia were Rear Admiral "John Augustus Rodgers, U. S. N., retired, and Mrs. Rodgers, the com- anders’ father and mother; Ro- bert Rodgers, the commander’s brother, and Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Meigs, cousins. The cortege, consisting of only the funeral car and two touring cars, passed slowly through this reverently silent little city and on to Zion Hill without pause, and John Rodgers, the youngest of long line of illustrious bearers of the name, was home for the last time. Philadelphia, Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Commander John Rodgers, U. S. N., hero of the Hawaiian flight a year ago, who was killed yesterday when his plane fell into the Delaware river at the Philadelphia navy yard Was borne between ranks of ma- rines and sailors late today on his way to his Maryland home. The solemn transfer of the body Was made almost on the eve of the first anniversary of his departure with four others on a flight that was to have taken him from San Francisco to Honolulu. Then the eyes of the navy scanned the Pacific anxiously for nine days when the five members of the party were cast away on a crippled seaplane, starv- ed and exhausted in the battle'with the sea, to be picked up at iast when in sight of the Hawalian~ is- lands. Today three of Commander Rodgers’ companions on that flight who had planned in a few weeks to essay it once again ander his leadership followed the body as it Was taken by motor to Havre de Grace, Md., the home of his parents, Rear Admiral and Mrs. John A. Rodgers. Services at Parents’ Home. The gray-haired man and woman who had waited anxiously those nine days for word of.their son sat this afternoon with bowed heads in their car at an under- taker’s establishment while the dark mahogany casket draped with an American flag was carred out by two of the flier’s companions:on the Hawaiian flight aided by two sailors and two marines and placed in the limousine hearse. It was almost 24 hours to the minute after the commander's death that the body was started on its way to its final resting place at the National cemetery, Arlington Va. There will be funeral services Monday at his home, at Havre de Grace. Then the body will be con- veyed to Washington for final serv- ices and burial at. 3 o’clock Tues- day afternoon. The departure of the body was delayed until the commander’s full dress uniform was brought from Washington by airplane. Three companies of marines, three com- panies of sailors and the navy Ses- quicentennial band, from -the navy yard, formed a guard of honor at the mortuary. The casket was borne out, a bugler sounded present arms, and as the guard of honor snapped to the command, the band played “Nearer, My God, to Thee.”’ Aviator Pilots Stiles R. Pope and W. M. Bowlin, comrades of Com- mander Rodgers on the Hawaiian trip, bore the coffin with four en- listed men, two from the navy and two from the marines. Standing at attention were offi- cers of the navy yard, including Lieut. Byron J. Connell, the third officer on the Hawatlian flight. A large crowd, held: back by traf- fic police, stood with uncovered heads as the coffin was carried out. President C oolidge Expresses Sympathy Paul Smiths, N. Y., Aug. 28 (By A.

Moffett and Mayor of San Francisco Condolences to Aviator’s Parents. Among Those Sending regarding the accident that caused the death of Commander. John Rodgers, U. 8S. N., at Philadelphia Friday, will be. transmitted to the Navy Department on:+completion, it was announced yesterday. Admiral E. W. BEberle, acting Secretary of the Navy, said the acci- dent probably happened so quickly that very little would be discovered concerning it, but that the recovery of Aviation Machinist Mate S. J. Schultz, the other victim of the ac- cident, which he hoped for, might throw some light on it. Schultz’s condition. is still serious. Messages of condolence to the grief-stricken parents were sent from all parts of the country yes- terday. Secretary of the Navy Wil- bur sent the following telegram from the west coast: “I extend to you my most sin- cere sympathy for the loss of your son, John Rodgers, whose fine qualities have endeared him to his associates in the navy. We mourn with you and trust that you may be comforted in your bereavement by the consciousness that he served his country faithfully and well and died in the service which he loved with.a fervor transmitted to him by a long line of worthy ancestors.”’ “The people of San Francisco are profoundly shocked over the un- timely passing of Commander John Rodgers,”’ read a message’ from Mayor J. R. Rolph, of San Fran- cisco, ‘‘to us as all the people of United States, he was a hero among heroes and we feel that in his death San Francisco has lost a friend and the nation has lost one of its staunchest pioneers of the naval air service. Our heartiest sympathy goes to you.”’ There were messages of sympathy from Admiral E. W. Eberle, Acting Secretary of the Navy; from Rear Admiral W. A. Moffett, chief of the bureau of aeronautics; Capt. W. R. Gherardi, aide to Secretary Wilbur; Rear Admiral John B. McDonald, commandant of the Fourteenth The report of the formal. inquiry. Naval district; aeronautical corpor- ations, and the aircraft squadrons of the battle fleet. Acting: Secretary of the Navy Eberle said yesterday: “I have known John Rodgers since he was a boy, and I have fbeen associated with him off and on since he was a midshipman. He was an officer and a gentlemafi of rugged character and of sterling qualities. John Rodgers possessed great courage and determination to carry through to successful com- pletion any task assigned him. He was an excellent seaman and a fine leader of men, and owing to these qualities I never gave up hope of rescuing him when his plane was missing for so long a time last Sep- tember on the Hawaiian flight. ‘“‘The navy has suffered a great loss, because John Rodgers stands out eminently as having done so much in the development of naval aviation and in advancing naval airmanship and aviation navigation over the sea.’’ Rear Admiral Moffett said: ‘In the tragic death of Commander John Rodgers, the navy lost one of the greatest naval aviators and one of the ablest sailors and officers in its history. From the time when, in 1911, John Rodgers joined the Wright Brothers in Dayton for his training as a pilot, until yesterday afternoon when he met his death, his every thought and effort had been directed toward the develop- ment of naval aviation with the view to making it of the greatest value to the fleet and to the serv- ice which he loved so well. He died in line of duty on Mustin field, dedicated to another pioneer of naval aviation who, like Rodgers, had been assistant chief of the bu- reau of aeronautics and who also gave his life for the service. ‘‘Naval aviation, as well as the naval service at large, will mourn the loss of this intrepid and gallant officer whose life was marked by high courage and devotion to the service and whose death is a con- firmation of his ideals.”’ AVIATION STARS GATHER FOR SESQUI AIR CONTEST American Aces Enter Great Meet for Select Awards on Saturday.

TO ATTEND CHURCH AT . SARANAC LAKE TODAY Social Engagements Light for Coming Week; Returns Middle of September. Paul Smiths, N. Y., Aug. 28 (By A. P.).—With the trout season end- ing early next week, President Coolidge turned fisherman . again today and went on an expedition in the heart of the William Rocke- feller preserve, a few miles from White Pine camp, to try his rod and line, Realizing that it might be his last opportunity for extensive trout fish- ing this year, Mr. Coolidge went equipped with hip boots to wade the tumbling stream of the preserve and to remain until darkness put a stop to the sport. He was accom- panied by guides and secret service men. The President found good fishing and he returned at dark with 50 trout which he and Richard Jervis, lhief of the White House secret service, had caught. The biggest of them weighed close to a pound. In preparation for several hours’ absence, the chief executive passed the entire morning at the executive offices and before he left for lunch- eon had cleared his desk of govern- ment business matters. To Attend Church Today. Mr. and Mrs. William F. Whiting, of Holyoke, Mass., personal friends, remained as house guests at White Pine camp today, but there were no visitors. invited for tomorrow, and Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge will attend services at the First Presbyterian church of Saranac lake. A comparatively light engage- ment list confronts the President next week, also, but two or thr visitors having been invited for the next seven or eight days. The first among them will be Matthew C. Brush, president of the American International Corporation of New York city, who will be a’ luncheon guest Monday. Has Few Engagements, Brush is an of the President, president of -the . Boston § Ele- vated railway when Mr. Coolidge was governor of Massachusetts. He is also a director of several Western railroads and has recent- ly completed'a business trip through the Southwest. He is expected to report upon business conditions as he observed them. During the week also it is prob- able that the President will inspect the veterans’ bureau hospital at Tupper lake, 30 miles from here, and greet personally the war vet- erans convalescing there. Beyond this he has no other visits in pro- spect during his residence in the Adirondacks. Present indications are he will return to Washington soon after the middle of September. CONQUEST CAMPAIGN IN MEXICO AVOIDED Mr. old friend having been (CON™NUED FROM PAGE 1.) ference later at Washington Secre- tary of State Kellogg asked Su- preme Knight Flaherty whether in- tervention was desired, and he re- plied it was not. Then Mr. Flaherty issued a statement saying that the knights’ demand had been misin- terpreted. Would Mean Conquest. To intervene with force in Mex- ico, according to the Coolidge view, would mean undertaking the con- quest of Mexico. This would entail the raising and maintenance of a large army at billions of dollars of expense and the shedding of much blood. The Mexican people would be united against the invaders, all Latin-America would be inflamed with fears of Yankee aggression, and.the only tangible result of suc- cessful conquest would be the pos- ince—another Philippines. More forceful measures short of intervention have been considered and may yet be adopted. Recogni- tion of the Calles government could be withdrawn, but this alternative is one that is regarded by many of the President’s advisers as of doubt- ful value because of the impression that the Calles government does 4not greatly care whether it is rec- ognized or not. In addition, the withdrawal of our diplomatic rep- resentatives would deprive us of such means as we now possess of exacting satisfaction for infringe- ment of American rights. Nor does the Mexican govern- ment stand in fear of the lifting of |the embargo of arms exports to Mexican civilians, according to The reason the President refused to lift the em- bargo recently was that it would have placed upon the American government the blame for enabling ithe Mexican clericals to obtain the sinews of revolution from the United ‘States. They are able to: get arme from Europe, however, ‘and eventually, when the church row quiets down, the American gov- ernment will rescind its embargo. ee a eae at, fied “ hai 2s en yrtee iiege) rn a, + y i ve . pl AT et rete - ah iat oF a a wa,” © : PRR Ae yt Tne hey ; ; b : ~ ; act ae 4 " Pe oO , eh — ; INPRESERVE STREAM session of another conquered prov-|!

BEST PAID WORKERS GIVEN $48 MONTHLY Rural Famine Aids Distressing Conditions in Towns; Flood Hits Farms. (Special Cable Dispatch.) Hanover, Aug. 28.—-An investi- gation of this town, which can be taken as representative of the aver- age German community, disclosed the appalling fact that 92,000 of! the 420,000 inhabitants are living on doles and are in abject poverty, though the mayor declared that as a whole the misery in Hanover was mo greater than in other parts of Germany. Herr Weber, Hanover senate, in charge welfare, told the- spondent that Hanover has 27,000 whose families number 57.000 members. The town also has 11,000 old and sickly who lost every cent in the inflation and who must live at the expense of the town. This brings the total of those turning for help to the town government, to 80,000. About 11,000,000 marks (ap- proximately -$2,750,000) is spent for Hanover’s poor, while the total taxes raised by the community amount to 32,000,000 marks (about $8,000,000) and the re- turns from the gas and electricity works amount to 60,000,000 marks (about $15,000,000) so that the total spent for welfare alone is 12 per cent of the town’s which is utterly inadequate. of the of the corre- a member Doles Not Extravagant.

The fourth child, if there! is one, must be fed on 6 marks (about $1.50) a month, while nothing is paid for more than this number of children. These doles are paid for 52 weeks. If the period of joblessness lasts longer than that the man is reduced to begging.

The reason for the tremendous joblessness is that! Hanover’s biggest factories are un- able to sell their products abroad. For instance, ‘‘Hawa, which town | @ builds railway.cars and engines, ‘ town has made - the-potatoes they needed. and ‘‘Hanomax,” which builds ma- echinery for motor cars, have but few orders. Whereas Hawa previ- ously employed 3,000 men, the per- sonnel now is down to 800. Hanomax, by turning to the con- struction of Germany’s’ cheapest motor cars—weird caterpillar-like little boxes with hidden wheels—~- is able to employ 1,200. The quota mentioned here is almost the same in all factories. $48 Monthly Good Pay. Even the men who are working are not well off, because the indus- trialists endeavor to cut prices by exploiting labor. The trained work- ers in the metal branches, who. together with the miners, draw the} ‘Syrian Tribes Attack highest wages in Germany, receive an- average of $48 a month, from which taxes and social fees are de- ducted. What these figures really mean can only be realized when one com- pares them to the cost of living. They spell bread, margarine and potato fare for 92,000 men, women and children of Hanover. The special provision with the slaughter houses that pigs” ears and pigs’ feet are to be sold to the town’s poor for 8% cents a pound, but even this is a luxury for most of them, since the rents for their hovels alone absorb at least 30 per cent of the doles.

Rural Areas Stricken. In previous years the economic | distress of Hanover usually was al- layed by the better conditions in the surrounding rural districts, but. the recent floods brought misery to them this year. The districts of Hadeln, Dannerberg, Sychow and Bleckede along the Elbe river have been utterly ruined.

Dressed in mourning, she did not emerge from her seclusion as her train rolled through Chicago today. She is due in New York tomorrow morning. Seven sacks of mail were report- ed received by the treasurer of the Rudolph Valentino memorial com- mittee today. The sacks will not be opened until offices are estab- lished next week. The letters, be- lieved to contain contributions to a fund for a memorial for the dead motion picture star, come from all parts of the country, Pola Negri. ‘Mourns. : Aug. 28 (By A.

Denied marriage—she announced their engagement some time ago— by his death, Pola wishes to take his body to Hollywood. But she was ill today, still weak from her collapse at Kansas City, and during the less than three hours spent here before her car was attached to a New York train she remained secluded in her car. Miss Negri apparently was agi- tated when reporters called through the door and asked her regarding intimations that the screen idol had felt that for religious reasons his marriage to his first wife, Jean Acker, still was binding in a spirit- ual way. 3 “No, no, no! said. “Everybody knows it is not so.” Asked then if she would take his body to Hollywood, she answered: “TI will do my best.”’ Before she reached Chicago, newspapermen quoted her as re- ferring to a film the two would have made together. “We were to have made a pic- ture together which was to be the final one of my career. Then we were to have settled dowWn.’’ Valentino wanted a happy home and children, she recalled, Her secretary, Miss Florence Heim, said Pola dreaded the ordeal ahead at the funeral in New York, and that she was still suffering from the shock of his death.

Mc- Quate, the opinion was given that the guns were. ordinary revolvers and not automatic pistols, and that the revolvers were of certain makes.

The ballastic engineer first tries to determine the diameter of the bore of the gun, the number of grooves in the rifling, the depth of the groove, the width of the groove and’ the, direction of. ‘the twist, whether left hand or right hand.

ision of Children Helped — _ In Ordeal, Says Swimmer be te > i oN 4 5 ‘ a} 4 4 \ j ‘Almost Unconscious, Relates Mrs..Corson, When She | Staggered Up English Beach; Worst of Fight Came During Hours of Darkness. Dover, England, Aug. 28 (By A. _ P.).—The long, hard’ battle which Mrs. Climington Corson, the Amer- ican woman, endured in her deter- mination to achieve triumph over the waters of the English channel, ‘was described graphically by her to- night. “Whenever I got down-hearted,” she said, “I thought of Sonny and his sister (her two children in America). Their two dear faces were always in front of me. When I landed at Dover, I did not know what was happening. I was almost unconscious and can just remember staggering up, and Clem (her hus- band), catching and kissing me. “The worst of the fight was dur- fing the darkness of the night—it was terrible. And even when the dawn came, it was like starting all over again. I would not have come out until I was dead. I had told my trainer to have the emergency apparatus ready to haul me out in case anything happened, because I would never have asked, after I had once started.” Cape Gris-Nez, France, Aug. 28 (By A. P.).—Mrs. Clemington Cor- son, channel swimmer, before her marriage to an American,was Ame- lia’ Gade, a Dane. She first came into prominence in 1921, when she swam around New York city, in 14 hours 57 minutes, and later swam, the Hudson river, from Albany to New York city, 153 miles in 63 hours 35 minutes actual time in the water. a Recently she swam from Dover to Ramsgate in 6 hours 20 minutes. In her previous attempt at the English channel in 1923, Mrs. Cor- son, who started from the English side, got within 2 miles of the French coast in 14% hours, when she had to leave the water because of its roughness. The final try of Ishak Helmy, the giant Egyptian, for 1926, nearly ended fatally for him. He entered the water at 11 o’clock Thursday night, despite the warning of his physician, with Dover as his objec- tive. At first he made good prog- ress, having covered 4% miles in three hours. Then suddenly he was stricken with violent abdominal pains and collapsed. He undoubted- ly would have drowned but for the prompt action of Jabez Wolffe, the famous trainer, who leaped into the sea and caught him just as he was sinking. MRS. CORSON SWIMS CHANNEL; MAY NOW RACE MISS EDERLE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) the ebb tide being adverse, she was carried far off her course to the west. All through the night and the morning and the afternoon the swimmer was encouraged by her friends on the motorboat, sixteen in number. Louis Timson, of Bos- ton, a channel aspirant, acted as cheer leader and song director and in a booming bass voice led his chorus in impromptu ballads such as “Oh! Millie, Oh, Millie, How You Can Swim.” Tonight Mr. Timson seemed more exhausted than Mrs. Corson her- self. The American swimmer was much inconvenienced for a time by the wash from the big Amsterdam steamer Ulysses, which was getting s0 dangerously near that the ac- companying motor boat was obliged to sound its siren to warn her away. Much Broken Water. ‘The last part of the swim was the most difficult as there was much broken water between the cliff and the pier. But by this time the swimmer could hear the encourag- ing cheers from the shore and she covered the last 300 yards in mar- velous style. During the course gf the swim, liners and _ cross-channel boats sounded their sirens and hoisted the American flag to encourage the intrepid American woman; others altered their courses so as not to hinder her. - Channel swimming experts at Dover are enthusiastic over Mrs Corson’s success. Her trainer, William Killingley, maintains that it was one of four ‘‘open water swims’’ across the channel. The others who have achieved the cross- channel swim, without accompany- ing tugs were Captain Webb, Sulli- van and Burgess. After landing on the beach, Mrs. Corson stumbled for a short dis- tance and collapsed in her trainer’s arms, but soon recovered. Crowds followed her to the bathhouse. where police were needed to con- trol the enthusiastic womea and girls who rushed to congratulate her. Challenge to All Issued. New York, Aug.:28 (By A~P.).— Walter Lissberger, automobile tire dealer, who financed the English channel swim of Mrs. Clemington Corson, today issued on behalf of Mrs. Corson a challenge ‘“‘to every- body, Miss Ederle not excepted,” to swim around Manhattan island for a $25,000 purse. The challenge was issued after Mr. Lissberger had learned that rs. Corson had successfully cross- ed the channel. Dudley Field Malone, attorney for Gertrude Ederle, when told of the challenge, said Miss Ederle would consider ‘‘such a challenge when it is received.’’ While $25,000 was fixed as the challenge purse, a brother of Mr. Lissberger said at the latter’s of- fice today that he would go as high as $100,000 in backing. Mrs. Corson against any woman »swim- mer. ‘ Distance Is 42 Miles. Mr. Lissberger wants the pro. posed swim around Manhattan isl- and to be'made not later than Oc. tober, before the water becomes too cold. The distance would ba 42 miles. He said that since he had won $100,000 in a 20-to-1 wager, , that Mrs. Corson would swim the channel, he was willing to risk that amount on her. — Swimming does not occupy first place in the life of Mrs. Corson. Anxious to get back to her two chil- dren as early as possible, she will _8ail soon for New York, arriving » probably on September 15, Walter > Lessberger said. The children, Clem- ». ington, jr., four years old, and Mar- - garet, two years old, are with an a aunt in Virginia while their mother is in Europe. Is 5 Feet 5; Weighs 170. Mrs. Corson weighed 170 pounds when she had finished training for _.. the channel swim, Mr. Lessberger a said. She is 6 feet 5 inches tall. ' * When she sailed for Europe in June she weighed only 158% , pounds. She left with the inten- * tion of building up her weight as “piuch as possible without damag- img her physical condition. | Proud of being the first of her a ex to master the treacherous chan- mel waters a omge sever and Dover, prouder still of the tim . made, Gertrude Ederle ‘ jl ¢ day that another American woman had gone across. Trudie cabled “‘heartiest congrat- ulations” to Mrs. Corson when she heard of the other woman’s accom- plishment. The news came soon after she had arisen to face a world still anxious to acclaim her. Crowds of admirers were lingering outside her Amsterdam avenue home, guarded by two score policemen, when the report came that Mrs. Corson had reached the English side. She sent a message to news- paper men that she thought it was “just great.”’ Miss Ederle said she remem- bered meeting Mrs. Corson at Cape Griz-Nez. A challenge, issued by the latter’s manager for Mrs. Cor- son to meet all comers in a swim around Manhattan island for a $25,000 purse, Miss Ederle said she would give consideration when it was received. Channel Victories Short Cut to Fortune for Women New York, Aug. 28 (By A. P.).— Swimming the English channel is considered a short cut to fortune for the first two women who accom- plished the feat. ° Gertrude Ederle, the first of her sex to swim the treacherous waters, has had offers of exhibition engage- ments which indicate that she may expect to earn a million dollars in return for the 14 hours and $1 min- utes she spent in battling the waters which had defeated all previous women aspirants. While Mrs. Clemington Corson was not known to have received any offers a few hours after her con- quest of the channel today, records of the earnings of great professional athletes in this country were con- sidered as giving assurance that she can, if she wishes, realize big re- turns for her 15 hours and 28 min- utes of work in swimming the chan- nel. Vaudeville booking agents and promoters of professional sport are always eager to engage athletes of either sex who gain widespread pop- ular notice. Wagers placed on either Miss Ed- erle or Mrs. Corson also were good financial propositions. Walter Liss- berger, who backed Mrs. Corson, won $100,000 by placing a $5,000 bet with Lloyds of London that she would swim the channel. He said he would give her $25,000 of his winnings. Henry Ederle, father of Gertrude, was reported to have won a large sum by placing a wager that his daughter would conquer the channel. Upon his return home yesterday he denied this, but other members of the family said he had bet on ‘“Trud;’,”’ though they did not say how much, Mr. Lissberger said Mrs. Corson spent only $5,000 on her training and the arrangements necessary in making the swim. The exact amount which Miss Ederle epent has not been made known. Américan Mother Seventh To Attain Channel Swim New York, Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Mrs. Corson’s successful conquest of the English channel increases the list of persons who have made the difficult task to seven. Capt. Matthew Webb, of Baat- borne, England, made the swim from Dover sands, England, to San- gatte beach, France, August 24-26, 1875. He traveled the distance in 22 hours and 45 minutes. Thomas William Burgess, of London, England, swam from the Dover Admiralty pier to Cape Gris- Nez, France, September 5-6, 1911, in 22 hours and 35 minutes, . Henry Sullivan, of Lowell, Mass., went from Dover Admiralty pier to Cape Gris-Nez, August 5-6, 1923, in 27 hours and 23 minutes. Sebastain Tirabocchi, of Buenos Aires, but a native of Genoa, Italy, swam from Cape Gris-Nez to Dover sands, England, August 11-12, 1923, in 16 hours and 28 minutes. Charles Toth, of Boston, made the swim from Cape Gris-Nez to Dover sands, September 8-9, 1928, in,16 hours and 564 minutes, Gertrude Ederle, of New. York, swam from.

LIVED IN‘ELLWOOD CITY, OFFICERS THERE ASSERT Names 'of Jim Robic and Mike Chowick Given to Robber, Decapitated in Blast. Pittsbargh, Aug. 28 (By A: P.)«: Police offi¢ers of, Bilwood City, a small towrt nearihere, late today identified the body Of, Pittsburgh's bank bomber as',thag’ of, Jim Ro- bick, a ‘Dome -Atabk, described by the afficers as a ‘queer’ char- acter with radical tendencies. The infernal machine, set off in the Farmers Déposit Savings Bank last Tuesday, killed the bomber and a bank guard, injured a score and wrecked the banking’room. _ , v N At the same time that.city de- tectives announced the identifica- tion a telegram was receiyed from the national buteau of -{dentifica- tion at Washington, D. C., which said the fingerprints of the bomber, forwarded severkl days ago, weré those of. Mike Chowick, who was- released from the Waupun prison at Waupun, Wis: in September, 1915. As a result of this informa- tion J. P. Black, superintendent of the morgue,’said he would withhold a formal announcement of identi- fication until a photograph of Cho- wick was received. P. A. Conners, head of the Pitts- burgh homicide squad, pointed out similarity of the names of Robick and Chowick and said he believed they were one and the same man. Conners said it was customary for criminals ft assume aliases upon their release from prison to thwart as much as possible, the activities of authorities who attempt to keep a check on them. Served Year in Prison. Chowick, the Washington mes- sage said, was sent to prison for one year on a burglary charge and was thought to have come Bast after his release. The Ellwood City officers based their identification on clothing worn by the bomber and on unusual characteristics of the body. Before the body was revealed to view, Chief of Police M. J. Teater said Robick’s right hand “turned in a bit.”’ and that his hand was short and the fingers short and stubby. “When he walked,’’ Teater said, “he turned over his heels and drag- ged them.” When the body was uncovered, Chief Teater and Lieut. W. F. Rashier and Patrolman Raymond King, the other two Ellwood City officers, immediately said it was that of Robick. The hand was found to he as Teater described it, the morgue announced, and the soles of the feet were seid to be cal- loused on the outside, indicating the peculiarity of stride described by Teater. The soles of the man’s shoes were also found to be worn on the outside and a home-made abdom- inal truss taken from the body was described by the officers before they viewed it. ' Chief Teater said Robick ‘‘was a constant source of worry to me. I feared he would get into some sort of trouble, so I had him watched night and day. That is how myself and the policemen got to know him so well. He was always talking about blowing up somebody or something. I stood it as long as Il could and then four weeks ago or- dered him out of town.” Since the man was told to leave town, Teater said he had heard nothing of Robick. r Seeking to Deport Alleged Krupp Scion Albuquerque, N. Mex., Aug. 28 (By A. P.).—Deportation charges have been filed against the youth under arrest here who claims to be Baron George Frederich von Krupp, jr., it was announced to- day by the local immigration in- spector. At the same time police re- ceived word from Wilmington, Del., that officers would come here to return the youth to Delaware, where there are warrants for him charging issuance of worthless checks and embezzlement. Charles Taetsch, Brown univer- sity student, and traveling com- panion of Von Krupp on his tour of the country, was released by the police yesterday. He will return to his home in Newark, N. J. Heifetz Recovering Following Operation New York, Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Jascha Heifetz, famous violinist, is apparently recovering from ap pendicitis, in a hospital under a name assumed to avoid any of the publicity that attended the illness and death of Rudolph Valentino. Heifetz was taken. to Mount ‘Sinai hospital during the height of disorders in front of an undertak- er’s establishment on upper Broad- way where the film star’s body awaits burial, and the musician was listed as John Smith on the hos- pital books. Although not entirely out of danger, the musictan’s condi- tion is reported as satisfactory. Woman Agriculture Director. Oakland, Calif., Aug. 28 (By A.

P.).—The first step of a purported “lost daughter’ of the late James L. Flood toward obtain- ing a share in his $18,000,000 es- tate was taken here yesterday when Mrs. John P. Gavin, of Los Ange- les, filed a_ petition in superior court asking a daughter’s share in the fortune. Mrs. Gavin claims te be Constance May Flood, daughter of Flood and his first wife, Marie Fosina Fritz. She demands a two- ninths share in the estate. Flood Was a son of the late James C. Flood, one of the Comstock Lode bonanza kings. Mrs. Gavin explained that she discovered her parentage through the initials ‘“‘C. M.

She is con- Flood, a daughter of the late multi- ‘| millionaire. MINERS" CHEF DEFIANT “IN MSWER TO GHARGES Illinois Union Leader Refuses Dictation in Reply to Lewis Accusations. BOARD ACTS TOMORROW Springfield, Ill., Aug. 28 (By A. P.).—Challenged by the union whose Illinois district he heads to defend himself from charges of employment by mine owners or to resign, Frank Farrington, president of district No. 12, of the United Mine Workers of America, today cabled the executive board from Paris that ‘‘you can’t dictate to me where I’ll take my employment,”’ The controversy, which began when President Lewis of the Intér- national Miners union laid the charges againat Farrington before- the executive board, will come to a head Monday, when the board will meet at the call of Acting President Harry Fishwick to deal with Far- rington’s reply. Farrington’s cable is said neither to have admitted nor denied Lewis’ accysation that he negotiated with the Peabody Coal Co., of Chicago, for a position, which Lewis said, was to carry athree-year contract and a salary of $25,000 a year. Stuyvesant Peabody, president of the concern, denies that Farrington has made any such contract. Thus far the board has been guded, in dealing with the charges, largely by the wishes of Lewis: Tha international president is said to have asked the board to obtain Far- rington’s resignation or to dismiss him if the charges are not dis- proven, State Senator William J. Sneed, of Herrin, is to be a candidate for the presidency in Decembér. Lewis laid before the Illinois dis- trict board, according to a legisla- tive committeeman, a _ purported copy of a contract which he alleged to have been signed by Farrington, in which he agreed to work for three years for the Peabody Co. at $26,- 000 a year. With it, said the com- mitteeman, were copies of tele- grams, one advising the Peabody in- terests that Farrington could not take the post if he were reelected president, and another advising the company not to make his contract publie. Farrington, who left with his wife on a European tour July 1, did not intimate in his reply to the board today that he planned to re- turn to defend himself. He has had frequent differences with Lewis over matters of policies and authority in. the union. FLEET OFFICERS HURT IN AUTO COLLISION E. H. Schmidt and E. M. Hicks Taken to Hospital; Ohioan Is Held.

RADIO WILL BE USED TO INTEREST NATION Fought in Air, Gen. Harbord Says. A national wide appeal to awaken the people of the country to give Washington unrestricted suffrage is about to be made by the City club of Washington, Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan, president of the club, said yesterday, “Washington today is a city of to pay taxes but are denied the right of saying how they shall. be spent as they are denied their say in most matters effecting the city’s welfare and government,’’ Gen. Stephan declared, ‘“‘these rare privileges be- long solely to Congress. Shall the people of this city be placed in the Same category as “The Man With- out a Country?’ Taxation without representation is tantamount to nothing short of that.’’ The plans of the club to appeal to the people of the nation on the suffrage question include: an ora- torical contest between nationally known, prominent speakers on a competitive basis; the medium of the radio and the’press. Such or- ganizations as the Chamber of Com- merce of the United States, Ameri- can Federation of Labor, Federated Citizens associations, Federal clerks, the churches, and public utilities are invited to take part in the contest, the winner of which will be awarded a silver loving cup. The speakers will be permitted to debate on either the positive or negative side of the question. The justices of the Supreme court will decide the winner. Appeals to the Press. ident of the Radio Corporation of America, who has an ardent inter- est in Washington, has assured club officers that the District will ‘‘have its day in court.’’ In order to as- sure 100 per cent interest in the question 6,500 civic, city and com- mercial organizations . throughout the country are being appealed to to bring the question of the atten- tion of their members through their journals and are requested. to make vice from the nearest broadcasting stations, as Gen. Harbord assured, air.’’ The undertaking of the club is possibly the most ambitious of any civic organization. Gen. Stephan is confident of victory. ‘‘This contest, with the aid of forceful and power- ful newspaper writers, augmented ': by their syndicates, as well as the local] press, will blanket the country. The nation as never before will rights accorded its citizens and): nothing short of that will answer,’ Gen. Stephan asserted. \Ignorance of Oath Loses Case for Boy Because the 9-year-old witness did not know ‘where bad: § little boys who. tell lies go when they die,’’ Judge Hitt yesterday in police court dismissed charges of assault against Louis Feinberg, who was alleged to have slapped the child. When the boy was placed upon the witness stand, he told the judge that he went to Sunday school and church, but when the judge: asked what happened to bad little boys who tell lies when they die the child replied, ‘“‘Under the ground.” CAPT.

TWO PROJECTS BEING STUDIED BY ARTS BOARD | Upper: Design of the Buchanan memorial to be placed in Meridian Hill park. area of contemplated plaza improvement detween the Union station and the Capitol. Lower: Part of the (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) of finding an expression of public opinion in support: of their choice. The Post market site poll was not intended as a deciding factor in the Nor is it. The poll was intended as an opportunity for the general public to express its senti- ment on the question of relocating all or part of the Center market district. The large number of bal- lots justify the judgment of the editors of The Post. The extent of the public interest in the poll ex- ceeded expectations. All Classes Cast Ballots. Persons of all walks and degrees of life participated in The Post poll, some of the ballots received being marked with an ‘‘X,”’ the voter’s sign, preceding his name which was signed by another, One thing the poll showed be- yond question: the people of the southwest section, including the civic leaders and business men of that section, want the new site for any of all of the three major divi- sions of the Center market dis- trict located in their section. They voted by the thousands under the admonition of the leaders of their section of the city who conducted an energetic campaign to educate the section to the imminence of the question and the importance of its solution to them individually. Another thing The Post poll showed among all classes of. per- sons, in all sections of the city, was e, distinct sentiment that the Cen- ter market district should not be eliminated as a factor in the city’s food supply system. Argue for Favored Site. Many persons have elaborated on their ballots in The Post poll, set- ting forth arguments in favor of the site for which they voted. A plea in favor :of the proposed southwest site was voiced in a let- ter from H. B. Derr, of Fairfax, Va., county agent of the cooperative ex- tension work in agriculture and home economics of Virginia. He had been asked to voice as county agent the plea of ‘a large number of farmers and truckers for the se- lection of the water front site for the location of thé - proposed market.”’ “This location has many ad- vantages,” he said, ‘“‘but I think the main one will be that it need never be moved again, as the river boundary will prevent crowding out. This location will in no way injure residential property now or in the future as will some of the proposed sites.”’ H. B.. Vrooman, 225 lLatterner avenué, Clarendon, Va., also urged the southwest site, because, he said, “the public is accustomed to the present location, and the new mar- ket should be as near the ‘present location as possible. Marketing is a business proposition and the mar- ket should be as near the business section as possible, so that mar- keters may attend to marketing and Other business matters. Both car lines run to this section. Cites Railroad Service. “Railroad yards are near to re- ceive foodstuffs from the south, shipments being most heavy in the winter. This more than offsets one important advantage of the Patter- son site. The river receipts make an important factor in favor of the southwest location. It is also con- venient for Virginia farmers as well as Maryland farmers entering the city from the southeast. These two classes of farmers offset the incun- venienced class entering the city from the north. “While the southwest section is not near the center of population, it is most convenient to the business section of the city and is in a more advantageous position to receive produce than either of the other sections. Each section, of course, has. certain advantages, but: the ones in favor of the southwest sec- tion more than outweigh the ones favoring the other sites.’’ Thonias J.- Wood, 17 Second street’ northwest, urged the ‘mid- Cleared, the commission believes, so that this part of central Wash- ington between the Capitol and Washington monunient will have walks and driveways and be in ketping with that part of the city ‘between Washington monument and Lincoln memorial. To this end, the $50,000,000.pub- lic building program provided for by Congress recently, will help, in that new government buildings are to be efected “‘south of Pennsylva- nia avenue and west of Maryland avenue,” resulting in the removal 7 Tee a t e. m, > of old and dilapidated structures now lining Pennsylvania avenue. SOUTHW having no personal city site, because it is “centrally located and is convenient to the railroads and the country gardeners and more convenient to the public in every way, especially the electric railroads.’’ F. .C. McCoy, with offices at 710 Fourteenth street northwest, supported the southwest site in a letter, deriar ng that ‘“‘the property there will cost about one-half the amount that the northwest section will cost.’ Ten Join in Letter. In a letter signed by himself and ten others, John J. Donnellan, at- torney, with offices at 4106 Fifth street northwest, declared that “citizens with an open mind and interest other than the beautification of our city, know full well that Southwest is the ideal spot.’’ ‘In the first place,” Mr. Donnel- lan continued, “it has all the assets the other proposed sites have and moreover it has the water front, unlimited space, which can be purchased far cheapeer than in any other part of the city and is con- venient to all suburban districts.’’ The letter was signed by Mr. Donnellan, Charles B. Murray, Wil- liam Gallagher, Joseph A. Donovan, Michael A. Casey John T. Mulhall, Francis W. Mulhall, Elizabeth Johnson, Mary A. Donnellan, Eliza- beth Houcher, and S. F. DePuy. Charles W. Bolgiano, of F. W. Bolgiano & Co., Inc., one of the old- est seed, fertilizer and farm imple- ment firms in Washington, voted in favor of: locating the farmers’ market on the proposed midcity site, elaborating his views in a let- ter to the market site editor. “It is a well known fact,’ Mr. Bolgiano said, ‘“‘that the midcity site is near the center of popula- tion and geographical center of the city, which makes it more accessible than any other new site which has been suggested, It also happens that the midcity site is very close to the shopping district, which would help the housewife in being able to go to opposite ends of the town. For this same reason it would be of value to the farmer who sells goods in large quantities to the housewife as well as to those who buy in wholeesale quantities throughout the preserving and can- ning season. attorney at law, Farmers to Move First. “To relocate the farmers’ market in either of the other sites sug- gested would mean that the farmer would probably lose a large share of this direct to the housewife busi- ness, and that the housewife would not have the advantage of this buy- ing direct as she has at the present time, “You. will notice that I have spoken practically entirely of the farmers’ market. Asa matter of fact, it is the farmers’ market which is to be changed immediate- ly and not the Center market and the: commission district. Therefore, I believe, the greatest stress should be laid on the’ site for the farmers. “Since it seems to be the inten- tion of locating the center market and farmers’ market together, when Center market is finally moved, there is mo doubt that the location of Center market elsewhere than near the shopping district and the center of population would be to the extreme disadvantage of both the merchants that are selling in the market and to the housewife who goes there to buy, “Ag a matter of fact, it is doubt- ful if the Centers market could hold its present trade if moved ‘away from the shopping district, for it is the advantage of being in close proximity to this district that aids them in getting the trade _ that comes to that market. ‘ Would Bentefit Merchants. “T have said mothing heretofore about the merchants of the town and the interest which they hold in this market, but I have talked a great deal about the market being located near the shopping district. | It is very easy to see, however, that the merchants would benefit in the Same proportion by being located near them as would the farmers by being located: near the merchants. “I hope that when ‘the decision is finally made that this move will be given full comsideration, as I be- lieve that this move which is about to be made is of extreme impor- tance to the people of Washing- ton.” | Location of the market a block north of Fourteenth and U streets northwest was advocated by R. E. L. Yellott, of R.. EB. L. Yellott & Co., real estate, with offices in the Insur- ance byilding. . “I think every one who has a home should take an interest in the new market site,” Mr. Yellott de- clared. “Our city is so large now that any site would not be very con- venient or close to all sections, but I have heard it said that 80 per cent uw j ey EST LEADS POLL of the building is being done in the Northwest. We all know that the population is increasing very much out Connecticut ‘avenue anf out Fourteenth street, and from thought I have given to the matter it seems to me that the location one block north of Fourteenth and U streets would be the best for the largest number now and in the future, and such a location would result in the market doing the largest business and being patronized by the largest number. Would Avoid Congestion. “Another advantage is that it would give the people an opportu- nity of reaching the market without going through the congested down- town streets. South Washington, I think, would be a most unfortu- nate location on this account, and looking into the future, as we all know, there the river stops develop- ment in new building, and that there will be practically no growth in that section.’’ Voting in favor of the midcity site, J. H. Peak, 611 E street north- east, declared that site is ‘‘more centrally located and easily acces- sible to all locations, and, you can secure ample parking space and you do not have to go from one end of! the city, traveling through the con- gested parts to arrive at the mar- cet which is on the extreme end of the other part of our city. “Another reason,” he continued, “is that the farmers from Maryland can readily move their products coming from Benning and that lo- cation, in- Florida’ avenue to K streets, both wide streets which can care for any traffic. The same ap- plies to Rhode Island avenue com- ing from the direction of Hyatts- ville down to Fifth and Sixth, and to Georgia avenue, which could readily handle all traffic from Mont- gomery county farmers. This loca- tion is also accessible by the Capi- tal Traction Co. street cars on Sev- enth street and New Jersey avenue, the Maryland line cars, the H street cars and the W. B. & A. electric line. Could the Southwest location offer any better transportation than mentioned?’”’ Favors Present Site. L. Bernhard, a housekeeper and a government employe, declared “for years I have gone to Center market for breakfast and have met hundreds of people there at that time. What would we do if you move it to the waterfront. I would like it kept where it is and see no reason why it should not be, with all the available acreage for building now vacant or used by temporary buildings.”’ But in spite of the writer’s de- sire that the market be left where it is, if it must be moved it should be moved to the midcity site, the letter declared. “Why all this confusion about the market location?’’ Grover W. Ayers inquired in a letter to the editor. ‘‘Why are the wholesale market, the farmers’ market and the retail market put in the same category? “We have our steam railroad transportation lines already set— we can’t move them—the Po- tomac river is where it is—we can’t move it—vVirginia is going to remain to the south of us in spite of all we may do about it and Maryland won’t budge just for our convenience. “So, these things being true, why not let the wholesalers move where, they can get the goods into their own warehoyses the cheapest and then to the retailer the cheapest— that is, it seems to me, a problem to be worked out after a downtown retail market has been located by the planning commission. Separate Markets Proposed. “Locating the wholesale dealers, the large truck farmers and the re- tailers on the same plot of ground may be-——-yes, is—ideal, but is it the practical thing to do when al- most unchangeable factors must be taken into consideration which make the ideal out of the question? “Let the planning commission lo- cate the downtown retail market Dr. Israel Shapiro to Hold | and then the wholesalers and the railroads and water transportation companies will solve the rest of the! problem. Moral—watch your cate- gory.” | A correspondent who signed his or her letter ‘‘Look Before Leap- ing’’ warned that-the land on whieh the market now. is located could be used for no other purpose under the terms on which it was given the government. The letter continued: “The money necessary to pur- chase a new site could and.should be used to thoroughly remodel the present market, making its exte-/ rior conform to the architecture of the new buildings that will be near it ‘and making its interior spacious, airy, light and sanitary—an opera- tion which modern builders can ' readily accomplish without great inconvenience to the lessees of | space in it.

BRENTWOOD. At the meeting of the mayor and council of Brentwood Monday even- ing a committee from -the Jackson Park Citizens association presented recommendations for the improve- ment and beautifying of Jackson park, and a proposed petition to the coping around the outer edge of the park. The plan and recommenda- tions were formally approved by the mayor and council. Councilman McClure, of the Sec- ond ward, made strenuous efforts to have the mayor and council order Charles street cleaned. A motion made by him for an appropriation of $50 for this purpose was not sec- onded. The matter was referred to the road committee. An appropri- ation was made to repair and lengthen the Charles and Henry street culvert. The road rebate fund from the county this year amounts to $2,185.96. One thousand dol- lars of this amount has beeh receiv- ed. -The town truck has been put in the hands of the Automotive Gen- eral Service Co. on Wells avenue for a complete overhauling. The mat- ter of erecting a small building to house the town machinery and tools was discussed. Thé carnival given by the Brent- wood volunteer fire department in Firemen’s hall, which was continu- ed last week, was far from a success, ‘due partly to bad weather and more perhaps to a lack of interest.

They have been assured of a speaker from the Department of Labor. In the afternoon there will be a base- ball game, tennis tournament, and foot races. The Holladay Street Ladies club of Brentwood gave a supper Wednesday evening in Star hall, Mount Rainier. The proceeds of the supper are to be used in the improvement of Holladay street.

The expense inci- dent to improvements to the south- ern approach to the viaduct are being borne by the the Blair De- velopment Corporation. The cham- ber of commerce has been studying methods for improving the north- ern approach with a view to work thereon in the near future. Mrs. C. L.

The best grasses were fairly well taken, but stocks at the markets have been increasing since the middle of August. The effects of the recent rains were also noticeable in the receipts of barley, a large percentage of which was damp and, therefore, of lower grades. SBest malting | grades in the central Western mar- kets were in fairly active demand at firm prices, but the damp grain sold slowly at heavy discounts. Ne. 3 barley was quoted’ at the. close of the week at Milwaukee at 63 ‘69 and at Minneapolis at 52@ 62, Export demand on the Pa-| cific coast continued dull. Much of the barley has not been ot a quali- ty satisfactory to European buyers, and exporters have not been active buyers.

France Beats Japanese Netmen Earns Right to Play U.S. for Davis Cup at Sesqut. ™%: ' | | Lacoste Triumphant in| Duel With Tawara | to Win for Team. OREST HILLS, N. Y., Aug. ai F (By A. P.).—France is Ameri- ca’s challenger for the Davis cup, historic tennis trophy, for the second straight year but only after | an unexpectedly close and sensa- tional battle with Japan in the in- ter-zone series that closed today in | the Westside club’s stadium. | Rene Lacoste, the somber-visaged | French stylist, settled the issue | when he overwhelmed Tsumio Ta-| wara, 6—1, 6—3, 6—2, but the victorious team was held to an even break for the day when Takeichi | Harada, ace of the Japanese forces, smashed his way to a spectacular victory over Henri Cochet, 6—1, 6—-3, 0—-6, 6——-4. It was through no fault of Hara- | da’s that France won the series by | a final score of three matches to two. The sturdy Japanese ac- counted for both of his country’s victories, his defeat of Cochet today being even more convincing than that he registered over Lacoste on Thursday and establishing him as outstanding star of competition. A sive triumph yesterday by France’s combination, Cochet and Jacques Brugnon, was the real deciding factgr, al- though the final outcome also emphasized the importance of Cochet’s last minute come-back to victory over Tawara in the first singles match. | ' | | Although Lacoste’s triumph over | Tawara this afternoon. clinched | the series, the French -stylist’s vic- tory gained through his superior steadiness and all-court work was colorless by comparison with the exciting combat between Cochet and Harada. The closing encounter sparkled with exchanges in which the hard and accurate driving of the Japa- nese prevailed over the brilliant but erratic volleying of the French- man. Making sensational recov- eries and capitalizing his fast serv- ‘ice, Harada kept up a raking fire to the corners that baffled Cochet, except in the third set, and kept the Frenchman from making many S it turned out, the deci- sorties to the net. Cochet’s attack twice soared to such spectacular heights that it seemed he would stage another up- hill fight to victory, but Harada each time had the reserve to stem his rival’s rush. The first of Co- chet’s spurts carried him through the third set, which he won at love with the loss of only 5 points. HE second occurred in the final set, when the Frenchman rallied to cap- ture four games in a row after dropptng the first five. In the tenth and deciding game, Ha- rada was three times within a stroke of victory before he grasped it. The matches were witnessed’ by the largest gallery of the season, 3,000 spectators, including Gloria Swanson and her husband, the Mar- quis de la Falaise de la Courdray and Edward W. Browning and his young wife, Frances (Peaches) Browning, who attracted at times almost as much attention as the players. In an exhibition contest Jacques Brugnon and Jean Borotra, colorful French star, who arrived here yes- terday, defeated Zenzo Shimizu, Japanese captain, and Teizo Toba, substitute player, 6—-4, 6-—-1. Reds, With Luque Up, Trounce Dodgers, 7-0 Cincinnati, Ohio, Aug. 28 (By A. P,).—-Cincinnati beat Brooklyn the third straight game, 7 to 0, today, due to the keen pitching of Luque.

NDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 28 (By A. | P.).—Walter Hagen, Pasadena, Fla.. today won the Western open golf championship at Highland Golf club with a record score of 279 strokes, outstripping a! other com- petitors by several strokes. He virtually clinched the title in the morning round by scoring a mar- velous 66 which equaled the course record set by Harry Cooper a few minutes before. He finished with a par 70, nine strokes ahead of Cooper and Sara- zen, who led the field during the first rounds. Macdonald Smith, of New York, who won the title last year at Youngstown with a score of 281, which equaled the previous record for the event, set by Jock Hutchison, could do no better than 289 this year, as his shots would not hold a straight course.

Hart, of Marietta, who scored par 70. These two retained the lead during the second day, still one stroke apart, but Hagen, by equaling the course record with 68, gained four strokes on Sarazen, who scored 72 for 141. bé Hagen’s 36 holes score of 143 left him tied for third place, and a number of stars were bunched near the top, making the contest look like a thriller among the 71 survivors of the elimination rounds. Hagen took away some close finish prospects, however, by scoring a re- markable 66 this morning. The coming champion, who was to repeat his triumphs in this event of 1916 and 1921, overhauled Sarazen at the end of the first nine this forenoon by scoring par 365, while the New Yorker was taking 37 strokes.

The visitors assumed a one-run lead in the eighth, but lost the ad- vantage in the home team’s half of the inning, when Pittsburgh scored four runs. The advantage was needed, proved costly. Pittsburgh left immediately after the game for St. Louis to open an important five-game series with the Cardinals, with a double-header to- morrow.

Jim Arthur and Buck Foreman are the principals, and as they are both Marylanders, race fans are keenly interested in the affair. During the Kenilworth meeting, Foreman thought he had a mile- and-three-sixteenths race sewed up with Fornovo, but Jim Arthur dropped Duckling into the race, and walked Off with the spoils. Duckling had a three-pound weight advan- tage in the Kenilworth. race, and Foreman now declares that if Race Secretary John P. Turner puts equal weights on Fornovo and Duckling in any of the distance races at Marlboro, the first named will pull up to Arthur’s oat- muncher. EORGE BRENTON, an- other favorite with local race fans, who also raced at Kenilworth, has nominated Altissimo for the distance races at Marlboro. Altissimo was third in a _ mile-and-70-yard race at Kenilworth to Denizen and a host of other good ones. As he was coming fast at the finish, Brenton is of the opinion that his horse will be able to win over the mile-and-one-sixteenth, or the mile-and-one-eighth route at the Prince George’s county track. There are sixteen distance run- ning events on the Marlboro pro- gram, and Arthur, Foreman and Brenton will have every opportunity to prove the merits of their favorite thoroughbreds.

Harry Payne Whitney’s filly Termagant was second and W. M. Jeffords’ Scapa Flow, the big and fractious son of Man o’ War, was third.

Flynn, managing director of the Havana-American Jockey club, back from Havana, also Miami, where he had been to inspect the turf interests of John McEntee Bowman, president of the Havana- American Jockey club, announced officially that the winter season of racing at Havana will open Decem- ber 11, continuing 90 days or more. In fulfillment of plans suggested by the success of last winter’s race meeting at Oriental park, the twelfth annual renewal of the sport at the course, the 1925-26 being the first program under the direction of President Bowman, Mr. Flynn says the 1926-27 meeting will be the most elaborate in the history of the thoroughbred pastime in Cuba and the equal of that provided on any course in any country. Even now horsemen in the States are arranging to ship to Havana, the idea being that they can take ad- vantage of the interval before racing begins to get their charges ready. ph saying that the Cuban cli- mate and Oriental park course offer many advantages in the preparation of racers. One of. the many successful features attending last winter’s racing at Havana was the large number of horses campaigned there. ----- --- URFMEN are united in Most remarkable was the fact that every consignment of thorough- breds followed hasty plans, this con- tingency being due to the uncertain- ty marking the definite arrange- ments for opening at Oriental park.

ALTDPR SPPNCE reversed the W order of last year’s finisp in the President cup three-mile swim yesterday when he led Clar- ence Ross across the finish line in front of the Washington Canoe club, sponsor of the race. Spence, who was second to Ross in the awim: last year, wore the colors of the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. Central swimming club and Ross is a mem- ber of the New York A. C. As individual first place honors were reversed. so was the team bat- tle. New York A. C. captured the President's cup yesterday with 19 points, nosing. out Brooklyn, last year’s winner which scored 13 yes- terday. Spence’s time for the race, which started at Sandy beach, in- stead of Chain bridge as planned, because of rough water near the bridge, was 33 minutes 45 3-5 sec- onds, considered exceptionally good for the 2 1-2 miles that he swam. toss’ time was 35 minutes. Mary- land Swimming club took third place. with 43 points. Brooklyn’s coach protested the awarding of the cup to the New Yorkers after the meet, basing his contention on the fact that a mem- ber of his team, Harry Lewis, fin- ished fifth but he did’ not finish within the boundaries specified. judges had FFICIALS | stated 0 none of the seen Lewis finish, but that few spectators had reported that he came in on the far side of a float used as a boundary. His finish was not officially rec- " ognized, that a W. B. Stephenson was the’ first Washington Canoe club swimmer to cross the line, his place being No. 15. and Carl Ahlenfeldt was the next local man, getting No. 17 place. Robert Schnell was the last Washington Canoe club man to Place, coming in 25th. Spence and Ross took the lead at the start of the race and from tfen on the race for first place was between this pair. Spence took the lead shortly after the start and held it to the finish. Ross chal- lenged the winner’s lead a mile from the finish, but after a battle of 100-yards fell back. When a mile from the finish Spence led Ross by about 10 yards, and Harry Lewis was third, about 30 yards back of the leader. Fred- erick Kothe, of the Brooklyn team; Leo Giebel, New .York A. (C.,; Laurens Claude, marine corps, and Robert Hosie, back-stroke swimmer of the Brooklyn club, trailed the Jeaders in the order named at this point. Hosie duplicated his feat of last year when he swam the entire distance on his back, using the back stroke. 6 82 finished and, in spite of the rough going, the ma- jority of those who swam the full distance were in good shape at the end. Spence showed no signs of being fatigued. Clinton Murray, of the Third Corps team, was the first service man to finish. Murray came in eleventh. Laurens Claude, of the Marine corps, was the next service man to cross the line, his position being thirteenth. Capt. John R. D. Cleland, ath- letic.officer of the Washington bat- racks, where the Army team trained, was greatly enthused last night over the showing of the Third corps team. Murray, for his efforts, drew a silver medal, while bronze ones were won by Richard D. Gray, who finished sixteenth, and Clarence Brown, who was nineteenth over the line. All of the other Dough- boys finished, their positions being as follows: Edward F. Q’Leary, 21; Charles F. Miller, 22; Frank Me- hesko, 24; Robert Manuel, 28; E. A. Kimball, 31; Floyd J. Jones, 32, and Melvin G. Owens, 33. ‘“‘When it is considered that these boys were jerked out of camps and given but seventeen days’ training, I think that their showing was re- markable,’’ said Capt. Cleland, ‘‘and too much credit can not be given to Coach Lionel Levvy, who took the boys in hand at the eleventh hour and showed them what it was all about. AS8 a result, the team fin- ished fourth among the ten en- tered,”’ The wiugning team was presented the President’s cup by Admiral E. W. Eberle and Spence was pre- sented with a diamond-studded medal by D. C. Crain of the Pear- son & Crain jewelry firm. New York A.

He always swims. on his back and im that fashion he negotiated the two and a half miles yesterday. It was Hosie who was seized with a’cramp at the finish and who was helped onto the float by Spence. The President's cup, emblematic of the Amateur Athletic union long-distance team swimming chatn- pionship of the United States, was won by the New York Athletic club, represented by Ross, Giebel and Farley. ‘The combined points of these three swimmers gave them the score necessary to win the cup.

Leo G ., Came Chamber of Commerce cup. Spence lwas awarded a diamond-studded medal for winning the race. | Spence’s victory was a vindica- ltion in the eyes of his friends. Last year he was swimming neck and neck with Ross near the Three Sis- ter islands when he was seized with a cramp in his left leg. Then, just as his cramp left him, he suffered a cramp in his right leg. All this happened with the finish line in sight, and the best Spence could do was to finish second. Spence had trained hard for yes- terday’s race and was in splendid condition. The moment he struck the swirling water off Sandy Beach he set a heart-breaking pace with his crawl stroke. Thereafter he neither changed his stroke nor his pace. When he churned down the stretch the gallery in the boats and on the floats cheered wildly. The winner was born in 1902 in British Guiana, South America. He began swimming at the age of 5 years and was taking part in com- petitions at the age of 8.

Shore Girls’ four rode into.a 6 to 0-victory over a crack team composed of army officers. Elizabeth Jackson, captain of the Washington girls’ team, played with the shore squad and starred throughout the contest, scoring two of the six markers and exhibiting an unusual brand of hooking, block- ing and driving. Alverta Brice, shore captain, played up to her usual style and marked up four points for her side. " The opposing four was made up of experienced poloists from Balti- more. Capt. Thomas Bourne and Maj. William Topton, of the avia- tion corps, starred for the male quartet. Prior to the game they also gave an exhibition of flying before a crowd estimated at 800.

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 21.) was far easier than the High- land links. This marvelous round put Hagen four strokes in the lead, as Sarazen took 72 for a total of 213, while Harry Cooper, despite his spectac- ular 66, had a total of 215. When Sarazen took 39 for the first half of the final round and Hagen got to the last quarter post in par 35, all but the most conservative granted him the title barring a fatal accident, especially since Cooper took 38 for the same nine. This left Hagen with a lead of six strokes over his nearest com- petitor, Cooper, with only nine holes to play and, without extend- ing himself, he breezed home in an- other par 35 for the record total of 279. His score was seven strokes better than the record for the na- tional open held by Chick Evans, who played with Hagen today sur- rounded by a large gallery. Among those who greeted the champion as he completed his record performance, was Bobby Jones, of Atlanta, holder of all the premium titles except this one, and the British amateur, and who ar- rived to play with Hagen, Sarazen, Smith and Cooper tomorrow in a benefit match for the James Whit- comb Riley Memorial. “That’s the sort of golf Hagen played last winter when he de- feated me,’’ said Bobby, ‘‘and when he ig right he can lick anyone.’ “The same to you,’ retorted’ Hagen and they shook hands. H: GE N’? Ss performance somewhat dimmed the glory of Harry Cooper’s scintillating work in scoring his 66, which first broke the course record. Cooper took two strokes off par on each nine, ensnaring seven birdies, including three twos, but went one over par on three holes. Another spectacular round was played by Al Espinosa, of Chicago, who got a 68, but his bad start of 79 raised his total to 291, despite a par 70 for the second cireuit. While there was no pressure on Hagen for first place, there was a considerable contest for second place which was shared by Cooper and Sarazen with 288. Chick Evans ied the amateurs. with 295. Eddie Held, of St. Louis, and Densmore Shute, of Hunting- ton, W. Va., were next with 299. Joe Turnesa, of New York, who was runner-up to Bobby Jones in the national open, never got started and accumulated 302 strokes, his last round ‘Seagey's him 7).

AR WOOD, smasher of power- boat records, and Alex John- son, seeker of international honors, will attempt to set a world mark in a special race that will be a feature of the President’s cup re- gatta September 17-18 under the — of the Corinthian Yacht club. Wood's sensational speeder, “Miss ‘| America V,’’ which has run faster than 80 miles an hour in competi- tion, and Johnson’s “Yankee Doodle,’’ a candidate for the Brit- ish international trophy, have been matched, and they likely will be joined by a third famous boat. This latter, “France Excelsior,”’ will carry the hopes of. France in the British international trophy race at Detroit on Labor day. It is now aboard ship bound for Yan- keeland. The French craft’s ap- pearance on the Potomac may be governed by its showing at Detroit. Gratifying results there, it is under- stood, will cause its entry here. TTRACTED _ principally. by a $5,000 trophy, spon- sored by the President of the United States, the foremost motor boat racers in America are bent upon giving Washing- ton one of the four classic re- gattas Inown to the sport in this country. William A. Rogers, chairman of the regatta, last night placed on file enough entries and letters of prospective entry of enough big guns of the game to give the Presi- dent’s cup race a place among the elite that includes only the Gold cup, Harmsworth trophy and Dodge Memorial trophy contests. Only craft of the finest order will be permitted to compete for the in- trinsically and historically valued cup sponsored by President Cool- idge. Gar Wood; Horace Dodge, whose name is borne by the famous tro- phy; George Townsend, whose Greenwich Follies won the last Gold cup race; J. H. Rand, jr., whose Spitfire holds the world re- cord for boats of the 151 type; Richard Hoyt, the owner of Imp, that showed well in the Gold cup race, and Alex Johnson, whose Yankee Doodle is being groomed for international competition, are a few of the leaders that look for- ward to the President’s cup regatta. Some of them will compete in races other than for the President’s cup. Another big race, for the Secretary of the Navy’s cup, will have a fine entry. Ira Hand, of New York, treasurer )of the American ‘Power Boat associ- Regatta Circuit Riders’ club, who is in clpse touch with power'* boat clubs throughout the country, de- ‘eclares in a letter received yesterday by Chairman: Rogers that interest in the regatta is becoming tremen- fdous.

A busy program.which includes all summer sports has been planned for the closing week at Camp Brad- ley, the Girl Scout camp at Mag- nolia, Md., where nearly a thousand girls have spent part of their va- cations this summer. Camp closes on Saturday, September 4, and a cere- mony has been planned for every day, starting with water sports this afternoon. Miss Willie Green Day, the: di- rector, announces girls’ day for to- morrow, Tuesday, dramatics, when a play, “Little Scarface,’’ will be produced by the campers. Both morning and afternoon will again be devoted to water sports on Wed- nesday; Thursday the annual camp banquet will be held, and Miss Gert- rude Woodcoek, the dietitian, is scouring the nearby country for delicacies; Friday, the day before the campers fold their tents and steal away, will be a sad affair, and the last camp fire, which will be lighted that night, will be marked with special ceremonies. At the beginning of the season over 150 names appeared on the Margaret ard dash--Opal Miller, Agnes second; Frances Dorothy first; R. Lindsay, jr., Washington com, missioner, states that every girl who registered for camp, this year has been accommodated. NET ENTRIES CLOSE SOON. Entries for the annual Capital Athletic club tennis tournament have been received from nine girls and Miss Frankie Ross, tournament chairman, states that about fifteen more are expected before the lists close on Wednesday afternoon. Miss Marion’ Birch, winner of the club singles title ast year, will not defend in this tournament, and as there are no favorites five or six of the club racketers are said to have an even chance for the honors.

CADET COA CH IN NEED OF BACKS Shoes of Ww indy White | Found Hard to Fill, " Tis Said. Football practice at Virginia Military institute will be held a week from Monday, and from the first session Coaches Blandy Clark- son and Bill Raftery plan a series of experiments to work out the best backfleld combination. The graduation’ of Capt. Snail Caldwell left the Cadets without a quaterback, and the loss of Windy White alone means that, a punter, a forward passer, a line plunger, and a fullback to back the line on defense must be found among the candidates for the flying squadron. The coaches hope to solve the quarterback problem by using Joe Farley, who acted as field general of the 1924 first-year. eleven. Farley is heady, a clever passer, and a fair punter and dropkicker. Should he fill the vacancy, Al. Barnes, triple-threat back on last year’s freshman team, will be re- leased for duty as a running back, his natural position. Bellinger and. Wolf, having already been tested last year in giving the signals, will be given a chance as ball carriers, RANK NABERS, Curly Rr Gfroercr, Chapman, Min- ter and West, all reserves last year, and Harner, Bishop and Moore, who come up from the yearlings, stand out as pos- sibilities for the other vacant berth in the backfield. Of these players, Nabers will probably be called on for some of the punting. L, Footba’ 3 Va., Aug. 28.—~ Walker, a husky former lineman of last year, is expected to get the job backing up the line that Windy White held so brilliantly. Walker, besides bringing up the weight av- erage behind the line, is also a punter. A possible combination in the backfield, with Farley at quarter, Walker at full and Barnes, Gfroerer, Harner, ‘or Nabers at halfbacks, would be light but fairly well bal- anced and lacking mainly in experi- ence. The Cadets, with Rugh and Mondy at center, with Joyner as an understudy, are particularly well fortified at the pivot position. Vet- eran guards and tackles, with good freshman material, held the line situation. R. K. Smith, captain of last year’s freshmen, may be shifted from tackle to end to give needed weight on the flanks. Capt. Fain and men, and Yates, Crockett and Mose make up in speed what they lack in poundage. Dreadnaughts Meet =a 04 ‘mu . ry. Fair-Lou Nine Today The Herndon Fair-Lou nine, on® of the strongest semipro teams of Virginia, will meet the Dread- naughts today on the latter’s Alex- andria field at:3 o’clock.

Houser, “Squirrel” Charles, “Sonny’’ Burdine, Robey, Detweiier, Greear, Johnson, Jeff Smith and Bill Houser. Outside of the Loudoun County league, the Fair-Lous have lost only 1 game in 28 starts, that to the Union Printers recently. BETHESDA WANTS GAME, The Bethesda unlimited nine is without a game for tomorrow. Telephone Bethesda 264. Visitors are invited to attend the outing and should meet the group at the Old Dominion station, in Rosslyn, at 2:50 p. m. : The leader advises that each hiker buy a round trip ticket to Great Falls on the 3 o’clock car. A lunch, spoon, flashlight and cup for coffee, which the club provides, should be taken by each member of the party. MISS LEWIS SCOUT CAPTAIN. Miss R.

There were no casualties, how- ever, with the exception of Joe Kurp, Shamokin, Pa., light-heavy- weight, who hit the floor head first when Dempsey nailed him on the chin with a left hook. ' Dempsey devoted most of his at- tention to shooting over a right to counter a left jab. Gunboat Smith, the veteran Cali- = whose proud Gistinction is that he hit Dempsey the hardest blow the champion ever received, put on the gloves with Dempsey to get a “little expert knowledge”’ of his condition. Smith visited the camp in the role of a hewspaper correspondent.

After the exhaust- ed Gunner recovered his breath, he asserted the only man capa- ble of licking Dempsey is one who has mastered a onc-two punch and could hit on equal terms with the champion.

UGMENTED by former college A gridiron stars, the Quantico Marine football team this sea- son will be richer in material than ever before. When practice starts next Wednesday at Durham, N. H., home of the University of New Hampshire, Head Coach Keady will have a squad of candidates of years’ experience fighting for the eleven regular positions on the team. The capability of his men will aid Coach Keady and his assistants ma- terially in whipping an eleven ‘to- gether for the strenuous season that lies ahead. A large schedule has been arranged and will take the Devil Dogs over 10,000 miles of travel. tains are included in the new material which be at Keady’s hands, Outstand- ing among them is Second Ineut. Cyril H. Arnold from the University of North Dakota, a fullback, who is mentioned as one of the best college players of 1925. T" tains former college cap- will There is enough new blood in the squad to form at least three strong backfield quartets, but it is believed that he coaches’ attention will be fixed, for a short time at least, on the pony backfield, to be made up of “Whiz Bang” Levy, Ryan, Ryckman and a quarterback yet to be selected but who probably will be Ed Pugh, a Washington boy and former star at the University of Maryland. Approximately 40 men will be taken to Durham to open the pre- liminary training, which for the first time in the history of Marine Corps football, will take place out- side of Quantico. Besides Arnold, the acquisitions to the squad are Wallace Thompson, center, and William E. Griffith, halfback, North Dakota; Raymond E. Hopper, fullback, University of Mississippi; J. Ralph Lanigan, end, University of Maryland; Marshall C. Levie, who played with the Uni- versity of Georgia; Elvin B. Ryan, quarterback, University of South Dakota; William D. Saunders, half- back, Virginia Military Institute; David M. Shoup, halfback, De Pauw; Thomas G. McFarland, tackle, and Robert H. McDowell, halfback, Citadel college, and Archie W. Dietrich, halfback, Vir- ginia Military Institute. The squad also will contain the following members of the 1925 team: Nats to Fight Until Finish, Hun CROWDER HURLS TODAY Hon Says Manager Bucky Harris By FRANK H. YOUNG. HE CHICAGO ‘series will end at é the Georgia avenue stadium this afternoon and, after this contest, local fans will get but two other opportunities to see the Na- tionals in action this season. The Harrismen leave for New York to- night, play the Huggmen one game tomorrow and then jump to Boston for five games, coming back here with the Red Sox for one game Sunday and a doubleheader on Labor day. Then the Nationals hit the trail for the West and finish out their season on the road. This will be a hard, tough trip, studded with twin- bills; but Manager Harris lets it be known that his team will do its best and will fight to the finish. “I realize that first place is out of the question and jhat we may not even finish: second or third, but we're going to try and end the season as high up as possible. “The season still has a long way to go and a few breaks while some of the teams now in front of us are slipping will make all kinds of changes in the standing. We have not given up second-place hopes, especially with eight straight games scheduled. between us and the Red Sox, who are trailing and should prove easy pickings. ve. $¢§ Bi You can tell the fans ‘for’ me, however, that we're going to play the season out giving our best, and that we can: not be counted out of the fight for second yet.” For this afternoon’s final with the White Sox, Manager Harris has Al- vin Crowder ‘ready for the pitching assignment. Collins is expected to give Alphonse Thomas the call. UT you never can tell. New. York newspapers are carry- ing stories to the effect that the Na- tionals and Mackmen will move up their scheduled games of Septem- ber 28 and 29 so as to get them out of the way by the 26th, when all of the other teams in the league are through. According to Presi- dent Griffith, there is no chance of this being done. $ With the league’s approval, the Nats tried to get Connie Mack to agree. to some ghifts earlier this season, but the lean tactician of the Quaker City could not see the prop- osition at all. Maybe he has changed his mind by now, but it is too late and the contests will have to be played as scheduled. According to the big-town writ- ers, this shift would be made so as not. to interfere with the world’s series but, as neither the Nats nor Mackmen are likely to cut any fig- ure in the first-place fight, this ar- gument appears to be futile. HE world’s series no doubt will open in New York in’ the Yankees’ park on Sat- urday, October 2. A _ second game will be played there on Sunday, and the scene then will shift to the home of the win- ning National league club for three games. If the other two games are necessary, the Yan- kees will stage them at home. Catcher Jimmy Smith, fresh from the semipro ranks of Salem, Ohio, joined the Nationals yester- day and worked out before the game. He is a hefty lad and ap- pears to have a first-rate wing when it comes to whipping the ball to the bases. Dutch Ruether was out to the Georgia avenue lot yesterday morn- he left to join the Yankees in the afternoon. He seemed greatly pleased with his shift and remarked that a slice of the world’s series melon was something which his ap- petite craved. There was a vacant seat in the press box yesterday, caused by the departure for Europe of Frank Saf- fel, wire chief, who is off on a six weeks’ vacation. ‘‘Fat’’ Burton is now running things there for Mr. Western Union. —- —_ Injuries received in Friday’s game forced changes in the line- up of both teams yesterday. Reeves subbed at third for Bluege, while Barrett covered the doorway for the Sox in Sheely’s place. SSIE’S left knee was 6 slightly injured and swell- ed a little during the night and he is due to get a couple of days’ rest. Sheely pulled a ten- don in his arm while stretching a mile to take a wide heave. The latter witnessed the game from the presa box. Walter Johnson day has been listed in Boston Saturday. The Old Master has not worked at the Hub this season and, the fans there have demanded that they be given an opportunity of seeing him in ac- tion, and Harris has promised to start him in the final of the set there. He probably will be present- ed with a cane or crutch. ing to gather up his belongings, and, FACES HARD DRILLING , Pick of Scrabs and | Freshmen Also ¢6 Go to Camp.

To this number twill be added a capable squad of 1925 reserves, who at the ing of practice, at least, placed on the “test” team.

The 1925 reserves are being /augmented by’ the last year's fresh- men, and in this group are many players on whom Coach Little is depending for strengthening his club. HEY include Munson, 6 feet, 1 inch, 190 pounda, a stellar lineman, formerly of Salt Lake City High school; Dennen, Scott, Schwartz, Dup- lin, Barabas, Winn, Cooney and Heageage, a Washington boy, who used to gallop away from the schoolboys while performing for Western High in 1924.

Pennsylvanians Favored To Officiate Title Bout Philadelphia, Aug. 28 (By A. P.). Fight fans are beginning to cast about trying to learn who will ref- eree the world’s championship bout between Jack Dempsey, titleholder, and Gene Tunney, the marine chal- lenger, in the Sesquicentennial sta- dium September 23. The Pennsylvania law provides that bouts must be limited to ten rounds to a decision by two judges, and in the event of a disagreement the referee shall make the decision. It is expected that the State box- ‘ {ng commission will insist on Penn- sylvanians filling the three places. ‘Who the three members of the com- mission have in mind, none of them has disclosed, and it: is not expected @ decision will be reached until shortly before the fight. : Among the numerous appilca- Ses Tex Rickard has received for ission to broadcast the big was one from a New York ra- Ptarent. which. desires to give details uyder the auspices of p Drexel Biddle Bible Class of » This was made known at.

Aithough Whelchel’s loss will be keenly felt, Coach Curley Byrd still is well fixed for backfield material, and it is in the rebuilding of his line that the big task arises.

They*‘agree with my idea. As one of them expressed it, ev- ery activity of a ball player is con- trolled by club discipline except his eating, and that is far the most im- portant of all. Bad diet has beaten many a ball club out of a pennant. I regard this matter as of so much importance, and I have stud- ied it for ‘years, that I believe ball players should undergo physical examination at weekly intervals and their diets arranged according to what the doctors fihd. For in- stance, a large percentage of play- ers, as I have said once before, have greatly fatigued after their games. Without the proper food they do not recuperate their strength be- tween times.

If the Pirates and Cardinals play each other to a dead heat the Reds will have a big chance to jump through to the top. A clean sweep by either of them would probably land the big prize, The thing that favors the Cards is their driving force, while the has been a consistency in both defense and offense. The Pirates have the natural strength of speed and punch. With Wright back in the game they will be mighty hard to beat under any circumstances. The recent troubles do not .seem to have affected the spirit of Pitts- burgh. In the excitement of a game on the field and the chance for a pennant before them the play- ers forget those things.

WO-THIRDS of the Nats’ } nine bingles were con- tributed by one-third of the team, Rice and Joe Harris placing two to their credit in addition to Murray's pair. Bob Reeves, subbing for Bluege, was the Nats’ fielding hero. Two of his four chanees were exceptionally difficult. In the sixth he raced to the third sack to scoop Kamm’s grass- cutter out of the dirt and to follow through with a rifle peg, while in the ninth he made a hard play look « easy when, with Falk on. -first, he raced in for Spencer Harris’ bunt, wheeled, and shot the ball to second for a force-out. The only other worth-while de- fensive efforts were credited to visiting players. Morehart made a fine, leaping catch to snare Rice’s liner in the third ‘with one hand, while Mostil raced a mile to fasten himself on the end of a drive from Myer’s bat in round six.

Provid- ing the weather is agreeable enough baseball to please the most critical fan should materialize. Of the four Section A games, the Shamrock-Mount Rainier and Chevy Chase-Arlington battles appear the most interesting on paper but the chances of upsets in the Knick-Marl- boro and St. Joseph-Maryland clashes- will draw many fans to those games. The Knickerbockers, in entertain- ing the Marboro nine in the George- town Hollow, will be seeking their eighth straight victory and are not letting Marlboro’s record fool them. Pete Haley will send all his regu- lars into action.

The contest, on the West Ellipse diamond, starting at 4:45 o’clock, will bring together the leagues in this section. They are General Accounting Office, of the Government loop, and Postoffice, of the Departmental league. - General Accounting Office, with the exception of last: year when Government Printing Office won the title, has represented the Govern- ment league for five seasons. Post- Office is a brand new postseason en- trant, Departmental races in the re- cent years having been dominated by the Union Printers. Tuesday’s clash brings the Pub- lic Buildings and Public Parks nine, Potomac Park league winner, and the Pullman team, victor in Wash- ington Terminal league, together, while on Wednesday fans will be given their first opportunity to wit- ness Fashion Shop, champion of the Commercial loop, in action. It op- poses the General Accounting Of- fice nine. HERE is eevry reason to believe that this year’s | play-off will prove. the | off for the title. most popular in the history of sandlot baseball here. In the first place, the leagues have eliminated the money question by footing the cost of the games and staging them on the Ellipse diamonds, casily avail- able to all fans. Then the teams appear more evenly matched than usual. True, Fashion Shop on paper seems to have a corner on the stars but the General Accountants, Postoffice and Terminal have their share. The Public Parkers seem to be com- posed of players the least known to the fans, although “‘Spec’’ Robbins, their shortstop is a star of the first line. The rule, by which each team was allowed to select one -player from some other team within its league, has served to eliminate the possibility of any team suffering from the lack of pitchers, despite the fact that in most cases teams will play every other day. A leg on The Washington Post cup and individual medals will be the material rewards of the winners of the series, which consists of a “round robin’’ with the two teams with the highest winning percent- age meeting in a three-game play- MT. RAINIERS BEATEN BY CIRCLES Rally in Ninth Gives Visitors Victory in | Benefit. HE National Circles, the fastest independent team in operation now, added the scalp of Mount Rainier to its: list, which is now seven straight, yesterday by a 7-6 score in a game played on the Mount Rainier diamond for the ben- efit of the Christy Mathewson me- morial fund. A three-run rally in the ninth in- ning turned apparent defeat into victory for the Circles: Hits by Harwood, Naples and Barry, with an infleld out, accounted for the tallies. OUNT RAINIER got an M early lead at the ex- pense of Perry Batson, but was blanked by George aig. Poor support in the early stages of the game made the going hard for the Mount Rainier pitchers.

A team will meet the Herndon Fairlou club, of Herndon, Va., here tomorrow with an ob- ject of retaining its semiprofes- sional championship of this section. The game will start at 3 o’clock at the Dreadnaught park and will be preceded by a walking exhibi- tion in which Dan O’Leary, fa- mous 87-year-old walker, will at- tempt to circle the bases twelve times in less than ten minutes. O’Leary covered that distance in 9 minutes and 42 seconds before the Washington-Chicago game Thurs- day. The new additions to the local line-up: are Art Ludlow, ‘“‘Busting Bambino” of the ‘“Ds’’ for many seasons, who quit early this sea- Schneider, former Shamrock; Heiser, of the Washington police team, and Johnny Laycock, of Ar- | lington. Ludlow will play left field; Schneider will catch, Heiser will work in shortstop, with Lay- cock to pitch if necessary.

S&S . 25. 2 5 2 6 F Northern Virginia fans don't get their fill of baseball today it will be no fault of the Arling- ton county championship. series teams. The day’s program calls for four double-headers with the entire roster of the circuit compet- ing. With so many battles, changes in the standing of the teams are an- ticipated. It is possible for several clubs to leave their hopes of the championships on the field while, on the other hand, double victories will change the titular aspect for several of the clubs. Principal interest is expected to center on the two battles of the Hartford and Cherrydale nines on the Lyon Village field, inasmuch as the Cherries now have annexed six triumphs without defeat. Hart- ford, facing a make or break situa- tion, will be a formidable opponent. Dick Panella and Bud Bellman are the pitchers on whom Manager Flester is banking to stop the league leaders, who will rely on their aces, Wesley McDonald and “Buck’’ Clatterbuck. N the event that Cherrydale can not surmount the ob- stacle of fered the Hart- fords, it will be Fort Myer which will assume the dictating position if the Soldiers succese- fully cope with the Ballston nine in their two games on the post field In the Addison-Virginia White Sox double bill, a twin loss means the death of titular hopes. Both of these clubs have sprung upsets heretofore and will hate to be counted out. Each of the double-headers is booked to get under way at 1:15 o’clock. Ku Klux Klan Team Battles Grays Today The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan nine tackles the Virginia Grays, amateur champions of Alexandria, today on the Klan field at the Ar- lington horse show grounds.

Meet Freers on Ellipse at 3 o’Clock. > HE junior class championship, T of the Capital City Baseball league, will be at stake today when the Corinthian and Freer nines clash in the ‘‘rubber’’ battle of their three-game series on. the East Hilipse diamond. Play will start at 3. o’clock. Although rain forced the game to be sidetracked last week, the dulled the enthusiasm of the clubs. Both have practiced faithfully dur- ing the week and will be ready for the ‘‘do or die’’ struggle. HE Corinthians earned / their finale spurs by win- ning the Section A title, while the triumphs of the Freers, in Section B, sent them into the play-off. The two games played have pro- duced brilliant battles. The Freers took the first game, 5 to 4, while the Corinthians won in extra in- nings in the second struggle, 9 to 7. Lefty Stevens is expected to pitch for the Freers, while Scheer will probably be Manager Walter New- man’s choice. MYRTLE VS. BLACK SOX. The Myrtle A.

All Wash- ington devotees of golf, and espe- ¢ially the six contestants—A. L. Houghton, Page Hufty, Roland Mac- kenzie, S. M. Newton, Miller B. Stevinson and George J.

It is. evident, from the size and character of the field, that any one who qualifies must play good golf. The question is, however, how \good.?.

Five-sixteenths will’ qualify. Announcement will be mailed today to all clubs in the Middle Atlantic Golf association. An important departure from past custom was agreed upon ‘by the large special committee, pre- sided over by Middleton Beaman as chairman. After a thorough dis- cussion of the subject, there was a general consensus of opinion that the primary object of the tourna- ment is to return the courtesies which have been extended to Ban- nockburn golfers by other clubs during the past season. Further- more, the committee felt that with an unlimited attendance the club would be greatly embarrassed ,in its efforts to efficiently conduct the tournament and properly entertain the visitors. T was, therefore, decided to limit the invitations to club members m the Middle At- lantic association and to such members of other club organiza- tions as the Bannockburn club may feel under obligation to in- vite. —- — et et et et 4 ~) — Lo namxmwty Do bo how CASorwwa-Aaov” — —— tor at et eet PD Maw wiv + see os —— oa) IS eS CIO eR HK OD KH ODI DW eR HOOT) _— tw i) POW K Ds S IS BWOSwWw+IoY to — 59 n= WOK PRODI OT“IMN=I . ~ 5 | i} § a4 293 290 } 271] 287 | 286 —- >Wwbo eS CT bo Sr to 3 NAB MOIOSAW SP A1IM-IWWAOH- UADWOeO—IHSO = —_ woe -310 KF OOF Cl DH oO d-1W KBTIVWVSO eS WODWO°oOe ——— 2. | - ~ — a — ~~ » ort bed te ee eee _ _ -_ wSS —pnencohtoS] prec: * + “1-235 ee ee ee —r >. ~ = — - o IW hoNwh De - a IweKeNornt 2Q0-3ns crc SS wwe owes oowQDoaoeesCoOorooof} moO CCN OK ws tIeK © -] wwe Dots oO ne om) 65 PITCHERS. 49 v8 es) 2 Re — —@é bet Sree wmx who to pad — | SrPOH OWA weave 2 eo —~KDOrmwneodnwocdwweee-t, bed A ed dL an ee ae ee Se-wowso- ~~ = ~~ eo e | ~ pet et et et ee CO Ol IS CO SHUM Ol Se BCID HK Wl ROO V HSH HSWOV SIO DS Dre me PO -1O Oty —_— —s —- eS) =Soso°c° Sho DP to he po bs pronto - = NAGMISDO-—- Sewn + wOD-! . coocooooco Pearaeay see roeesoee rere Tae nth Ww CLO Sw DROID rim one SMe DH AE DH NOMS SDE ENR bo Aw ODV ON RH RH ARH WENT ONWSCANWGAIWN ENF DAMM CHK Mw OK OCHO OCANN SHAH WEEN WWII KH ON Me ABH bNOWNN ay SsdooceoSOwoeHSSOos Se NWHKHOK BK NSHKWoRr SK Swiss S Ore tote to = Cl te Ol HI DW] esoocoocoococ sew Oo Sf Soooococococoooosooso oococooo Snyder Is Released; Se | |Giants Buy De Vormer Pittsburgh, ie 28 (By A.

While this innovation will undoubtedly be re- gretted in some quarters, the Ban- nockburn members feel that they are not in a position to entertain an unlimited field. The story ONIONS printed in this column regarding the four players at. Bannockburn, who holed out with one putt on the tenth green ‘of that course can now be dupli- cated by an experience of a quar- tet of golfers at the Columbia club, Frank Govern, William M. Smith, Edwin -B. DeGraw and Ernest I. Ober. On the twelfth green, from a dis- tance of 256 feet, Govern ran down his putt. Smith holed out with a putt of 20 feet, whereupon DeGraw followed suit with a putt that was about 20 feet. This left Ober with a putt of about eight or ten. feet to negotiate and he also ran the ball into the cup. All the players made a par 6. Mrs. J. M. Haynes, District woman golf champion, and Mrs. H. A. Knox, of the Indian Spring club, plan to compete in the women’s na- tional dmateur championship at Merion during the week of Septem- ber 27. Both have played the Merion course in the 90s and while they admit that they have little ex- pectation of qualifying, they are anxious to participate in the event and especially desire to see the ex- pert women golfers play. HE qualification round will be played on Monday, September 27, with 32 to qualify, and the match play rounds will continue, eighteen holes each day, until Saturday, when the final round of 36 holes will be played. In addition te the tournament, there will be various events——match play against par, mixed foursomes and best ball four-ball matches—to provide entertainment for competi- tors who fail to qualify. Recently: the United States Golf association has had requests from Japan, Mexico and Argentina for copies of its constitution and by- laws and other data suitable for use as a basis for organizing golf associations. Perhaps in course of time the Walker cup will be:a real international trophy, like the Davis cup in tennis, and not be restricted in its competition to Great Britain and the United States. When Karl V. Eiker, the chair- man of the golf committee of the Washington Typothetae, sent out the notice of the second monthly tournament of the _ association, which was played last Thursday on’ the course of the Congressional Country club, he asked the mem- tion of the heavens,’’ because the tournament had been previously postponed on, account of rain. . Evidently the prayers of’ the righteous availed much, for on Thursday afternoon the sun. shooe | holds the world’ Weather prediction—Rain today and tomorrow; no change in temperature. For days and days we've lived in gloom, Beneath the dripping skies, And still there is more rain to come, “Old Prob” now prophesies. My patience gone, I'd really like To be a bit profane, you ever knuw Such damp persistent rain? with hardy souls, And spirit resolute, Went bravely venturing forth because They owned a rubber suit. The grass in all the broad fairways Grew up six inches tall, drove straight from the’ You could not find your ball. We've almost had another flood, As in the days of Noah; When we supposed the rain had ceased, it rained some more. And yet I hope when Sunday comes, We'll all be happy men, And that instead of leaden skies, We'll see the sun again. that the word ‘‘dehumidification” stretches out over more territory than Ben. F. Durr, the secretary of the organization, can drive a golf ball Entrants in the Bannockburn fall invitation event, which begins Sep- tember 22, will play practically the same lay-out as was used last year, except that the second, fourth, sixth, eighth and ninth holes have been greatly lengthened. Do you like to play in the rain? If you do not, you are different from George T. Howard, of the Washington Golf and Country club, who just loves to play when the heavens are sending down buckets of water. At least, that is what he says. JUST wrap a towel ora handkerchief around the handle of my clubs,” he remarked during a heavy down- pour last week, “and I can hit "em out a mile. Really, I do play better when it is raining than at any other time.” The Beaver Dam team is sched- uled to play the Manor team on the Manor course this afternoon. The Indian SpringtArgyle match last Sunday was postponed, as weather conditions made the road to the Argyle club sateornters impassable. 6é The nine- Note soit course down the War college undoubtedly s record for hole-in- one shots. The course, which is not a long one, has two short holes, the first, 125 yards, and the fifth, 1134 yards. No less than seven play- ers have scored aces on these two holes. On the first hole Maj. J. A. Me- Andrews and Col. T, A. Roberts have been the lucky golfers, while on the fifth hole Col. W. C. Sweeny, Col. Samuel Sutherland and Col. Walter Grant have been able to join the hole-in-one club. In addition, two former students at the college, now at other posts, made aces. Maj. McAndrew almost holed out his tee shot on the fifth hole when playing last week and easily tapped his ball into the cup for a birdie 2.

Paxton, the chairman of the gclf committee, has under ton- sideration a plan for dividing the club membership into classes on &@ handicap basis, with a champion- ship prize for each division. This system, in elubs where it has been adopted, has proven popular in view of the fact that competition is not confined to the top-notchers in the first flight. Pairings will be made today for Bannockburn’s championship event, The storms of the past two weeks have almost barred competitors from turning in their qualification scores but most of the leading players of the club are contenders and a battle royal for club honors is scheduled. Among those who have registered as going at top speed at present are W. L. Pender- gust, E. J. Doyle, H. Stonier, Paul Steindorf, Middleton Beaman, J. B. Murphy, George Llewellyn, L. 5. Pfautz, R. M.

Renewed negotiations between Chile and Peru through the good offices of Sec- retary Kellogg give promise of an adjust- ment of the Tacna-Arica question. It is reported that suggestions of an alterna- tive character have been made by Mr. Kellogg which are acceptable in principle as the basis of negotiations which, it is hoped, will result in an agreement of the highest importance and value to Peru, Chile and Bolivia. The details of these alternative suggestions are not disclosed, and it is well that they should be kept in reserve while they are under discus- sion; for the popular feeling in the coun- tries affected is so sensitive that any plan, however fair, would meet with op- position somewhere. In Chile, particularly, it is difficult to make progress toward a settlement, on account of the friction between the mili- tary: and civil elements and the obdurate temper of the public. The military ele- ment takes no account of.the dangers attending “strong-arm” methods, while the better informed political leaders are fully aware that Chile’s position will be- come more and more precarious while the Tacna-Arica dispute remains .un- settled. In this connection it is rumored that Chile finds it advisable to postpone nego- tiations for floating a foreign loan until international bankers can feel assured that conditions will not be disturbed by the doubts surrounding the Tacna-Arica question. For the sake of peace and prosperity | throughout South America it is to be | hoped that reason will prevail in the for- eign policy of the countries concerned in the Tacna-Arica dispute, to the end that there shall be no further prolongation of a situation that can not but become worse unless an agreement is reached. MODEST MODERN HOMES. Thousands of government employes are waiting for the development of Secre- tary Hoover’s plan for the construction of accessible, modern apartments which can be rented to these employes at $12.50 per room per month. It was stated by Mr. Hoover that a local philanthropist stood ready to furnish capital for these apartments, and that they would be built within ten minutes’ walking distance of the center of town. This plan, in view of the conditions which obtain in Washington as well as in all large cities, sounds “‘almost too good to be true.” Waiving discussion. of the rental figure, the chief obstacle to the plan appears to be in obtaining suitable building sites. Where can cheap land be obtained within ten minutes’ walking distance of the center of town? _ Provision for the modest home dweller, ' whether a government employe or not, is an extremely difficult problem in Wash- ington. Land prices are rapidly rising, and the cost of building materials and labor is high. Yet wages are high, also, and the average man is more determined than ever to own a home where he can raise his family in comfort. The demand for small but modern homes is insistent. They must be built somewhere if Wash- ington is to expand without tenements _ qgndslums. The question is where to find _ @uitable land upon which to build such homes. Naturally, owners of commodious 5 | 01 nes in the suburbs are opposed to the ‘i. ‘ $ .

In these circumstances the National Capital park and planning commission is in duty bound to provide for park and playground spaces in sections now under development. The well-being of sections composed mostly of small modern homes calls for the close attention of the zoning and planning commissions. The rich can build where they please, but the small home owner must do the best he can. He deserves the full cooperation of the authorities in his efforts to establish a healthful home, in a section provided with parks,. playgrounds, schools, ehurch- es, and all other city facilities. NICARAGUA AND THE LEAGUE. Nicaragua, a member of the league of nations, has lodged a protest with the league against Mexico, alleging that the Mexican government has permitted one of its auxiliary gunboats to convey a free- booting expedition to Nicaragua to aid revolutionists in attempting to overturn the government of Gen Chamorro. Nica- ragua has not requested specific action by the league, but the secretary general of the league has forwarded the protest to all nations belonging to the league, and to Mexico, which is not a member. Under the covenant of the league Mex- ico would be invited to become a member of the league “for the purposes of the dispute,” and the league council would then hear both sides and endeavor to reach an amicable settlement. In case Mexico should refuse to recognize the. league’s authority the covenant provides that all members of the league would be bound to combine against her in case of war. The Chamorro government of Nica- ragua has not been recognized by the United States, because Gen. Chamorro obtained power by a coup d’etat. The treaty made by the five Central American republics provides that governments set up among them by revolution or a coup d’etat shall not be recognized by the others. The United States, which assisted the republics concerned to frame this treaty, is acting in harmony with its terms in refusing to recognize Chamorro. But Chamorro has established a govern- ment, just the same, and has shown that he is strong enough to put down any op- position that originates in Nicaragua. He has complained, however, that revolu- tionary expeditions have been sent from both the United States and Mexico and that the American and Mexican govern- ments have not taken adequate measures to prevent such incursions, Renewed fighting in Nicaragua recent- ly threatened to do injury to Americans and American interests, and two naval vessels have been dispatched to safeguard American interests. The covenant of the league of nations contains an article which is commonly supposed to keep the league from collid- ing: with the United States in its assertion of the Monroe doctrine. This article is in muddled language, like the rest of the covenant, and is susceptible of different interpretations. The United States, however, is not muddled in the least. It pays no atten- tion to the league or its covenant, so long as the league keeps its hands out of this hemisphere and does not intermeddle with American interests here or elsewhere. It may develop that the United States has made a mistake in not recognizing the Chamorro government. It was estab- lished through a coup d’etat, but it was a ‘bloodless stroke, and Gen. Chamorro has | government in certain countries, t ee exe ae POST aD sh i ety Cee Lae et nuda fs a ig a ea) es ee % ee Ts ved re a maintained his government with the evi- dent support of a majority of Nicara- guans. If a revolution should overturn him, how could the United States con- sistently recognize the new regime, in view of its refusal to recognize any gov- ernment set up by revolution? Since coups d’etat and revolutions are the cus- tomary method of effecting changes of the practical method of dealing with them would seem to be to recognize de facto governments if they seem to be support- ed by the people. A collision between the United States |: and the league of nations is evidently hoped for by Gen. Chamorro. There will be no collision. The Monroe doctrine stands where it has always stood. The only interpretation of the doctrine that can be effectual is the interpretation placed upon it by its creator, the United States. If the United States government should conclude that interference by the league in the quarrel between Niczs and Mexico constitutes intermeddling in en hoe n et i ints Oe eet Bei hake ce ; ae > ee * 4 t «hee. y ree ee Re Rak Tee Beet 7 Oi. be mye 4 is the political affairs of this hemisphere, there: will be no intermeddling. The league is managed by astute European politicians who are too wise to run afoul of the United States. OFFICIAL TRAVEL EXPENSES. One of the principal causes of friction between the accounting officers of the government and those officials and em- ployes whose duties require them to travel extensively will be removed when the new regulations are promulgated October 1. Per diem allowances and, expenses for personal services have been the principal bones of contention. The per diem allow- ance, especially since the great advance in hotel rates, has been regarded as par- ticularly niggardly. Not one man in a dozen when traveling under official or- ders has ever been able to make the jour- ney without drawing on his personal funds to meet the expenses of his trip. Recently, for instance, some of the dele- gates to an international meeting in Italy, who were restricted to the payment of $4 per day for hotel accommodations, were forced to pay 50 per cent of the cost of the trip, aside from actual fares, from funds of their own. The new regulations were worked out under the authority of President Cool- idge and are in accordance with recent legislation by Congress. They will be the guide to all the civil departments and each official traveler will know in ad- vance how much he may pay for his breakfast; what will be permitted in the way of tips and fees; just how far he must travel to be authorized to take a seat in a parlor car; what to pay the chambermaid in the hotel; and, what will please him most, he will find that on the average his allowance for subsistence is increased 50 per cent. Also, by filing a bond, he can obtain traveling funds in ad- vance instead of being compelled to wait until he returns—and then some. Altogether the official traveler may breathe more freely, now that he will no longer be compelled to finance a large share of his traveling expenses. COST OF PRODUCING CORN. When the committee from the corn belt States appeared before congressional committees last winter and spring, it was claimed that the cost.of producing a bushel of corn in Iowa was $1.42, in Illi- nois, $1.43; in Nebraska, $1.40; in Minne- sota, $1.41, and in North Dakota and Wisconsin, $1.42. Leading farmers in Iowa report to the Department of Agriculture that as a matter of fact the cost of producing a bushel of corn in Iowa this year has averaged 79 cents, and that in some cases it has been as low as 67 cents per bushel. The Department of Agriculture month- ly supplement for June, 1926, gives the 1925 average cost of production of corn in all sections of the country. In.the ‘North Atlantic States it was 87 cents, in the South Atlantic States, 96 cents; in the East North Central States, 56 cents; in the West North Central States, 59 cents; in the South Central States, 99 cents, and in the Western States, 83 cents. This gross discrepancy leaves some- thing to be explained by the agents of the corn belt States who demand legislation that would attempt to fix the price of corn from 30 to 50 cents above the mar- ket price. GAS TAXES. Decisions of Comptroller General Mc- Carl are invariably based on precedent. Those whose personal interests are ad- versely affected by the dictum of the of- ficer to whom is referred all questions relating to the settlement of accounts are prone to criticize such decisions without knowledge of the methods employed in reaching conclusions. Thus many un- pleasant comments have been made upon Mr. McCarl’s recent ruling wherein he decides that the District of Columbia is outside the law when it exacts a tax of 2 cents per gallon on the gasoline used by the Postoffice Department in the transac- tion of government business. At the same time he holds that if the tax on gasoline is paid into the treasury of a State by a wholesaler and is passed on to the consumer by the retailer, it is a legitimate tax against the government as a gas consumer. He also holds, however, that if the State law requires the retailer to collect the tax on the sale and to pay that tax to the State officials the United States government is exempt from the payment of the tax. aanitoe tly Mr. McCarl holds that a | State may indirectly tax the government aa - * 4 « , * i rf ’ 2 ay od ¥ ANS, te i Nght 1.) ate 4 ee blige ph toe Shay : Rey q ve i! 1 2 if fe i "Fy re ae i nN ) for gasoline, but that the government is exempt from a gasoline tax in the Dis- trict of Columbia. That the comptroller general has nu- merous precedents for deciding similar cases in ways which might be considered antagonistic is easily demonstrated. He was possibly influenced by the opinion of his distinguished. predecessor, Judge Lawrence, of Ohio, in the matter of the importation of natural gas and electrical energy from Canada. Judge Lawrence held that “as natural gas could be meas- ured” it was taxable under the section of the act of 1883, which provided for a duty on “other mineral products not otherwise provided for.”’ However, when the Canadians converted natural gas into electrical energy the learned comptrolller held that “as electrical energy can not be measured” it is not subject to duty when imported. There is a tradition in the Treasury Department that it’ was that identical predecessor of Mr. McCarl who on an- other occasion held that hydraulic rams might be admitted free of duty because of their use in improving the breed of sheep. That opinion may be of value to Mr. McCarl on some future occasion, when he is looking up precedents. SWIMMING THE CHANNEL. Another American woman swims the British channel. It was to be expected. A little exercise between breakfast and dinner is highly to be commended, and doubtless, many American girls and wom- en will find the dip across the channel highly invigorating. | The second champion is Mrs. Cleming- ton Corson, of New York, mother of two children. She did not make quite as good time as Gertrude Ederle made, but she easily beat the best record ever made by aman. There is no indication that Mrs. Corson was in a hurry. She swam leis- urely, at.a gait of 19 strokes to the min- ute, and strolled out upon the sands be- low Shakespeare cliff 15 hours and 28 minutes after she had waded into the channel at Cape Gris-Nez. Possibly Mrs. Corson had in mind the best time made by a mere man, that of Sebastian Tiraboschi in 1928, when he consumed 16 hours and 23 minutes in crossing. It was easy to beat that rec- ord; and perhaps Mrs. Corson did not : eat Miss Ederle’s record. te, there i4 glory enough for ae t “+ “t At any . cng yas Sate eae ree oye a ae Ae ‘ vs NG is a rt seal ia * , aks “a Hy SE el ie og Ba cote ate iy Pe ee ee nt ¢ ‘ ines Py WR iy el ee ee pis) f¢e ‘ hy ‘ . ’. foun e * 7 ¥ r Aa _" ™ Oa, ee aff > bs > ‘ i". as $ . ah ae . , ba ad , a re al i ~ : i dS ys, Ae eee eS ae y.- PPP as ee € wes ' ee i s es 4 t ~T@ 5 oie Boning CEL I Ae eee a Lp As

PROD BY LACK OF FUNDS Failure of Congress to Vote Appropriations Virtually Nullifies Act. NAVY IS BEGINNING EXPANSION PROGRAM Both Departments at Work Reducing Estimates to Meet Budget Total. Although the apportionment of ' funds alloted to the military and naval establishments to particular purposes during t'he next fiscal year will not be made known until after the War and Navy Departments get through the paring of the original estimates under instructions frém the budget bureau, it is evident from the preliminary announce- ments that service appropriations will be cut down, or at least not in- creased over those for this year, and that expansion of the army avi- ation activities on the five-year de- velopment program authorized by Congress at the last session can not be realized without sacrifice of oth- er branches of the army. The navy is in somewhat better position as to beginning its pro- gram of acquirement of new air- craft, for funds for that purpose were carried in the last naval ap- propriation act, but no increase in personnel was authorized. The army finds itself in the position of having the program authorized, without any funds for providing in- creased personnel or acquirement of aircraft under the expansion plans. 1,800 Planes Authorized. In reporting the air expansion program of the army to the House, Representative Morin, chairman of the House military committee, de- clared that it was to be accom- plished “without taking this in- crease from the other arms,’’ and the same implication was made with respect to the navy’s air pro- gram. From the budget point of view, there is quite a difference between authorized strength and _ actual Strength. The army air corps act authorizes 1,800 planes for the regular establishment, an increase of 403 in the commissioned per- |, #gnnel of the air corps, and an in- crease. in the enlisted personne! of that corps, but due to the failure of Congress to provide the required funds, the actual strength of the air corps remains at the preact figure, and apparently it so will remain unless some material in- creases are made in the military appropriations contemplated by the budget bureau. In other words, the failure of Congress to provide the necessary appropriations to carry out the provisions of the air corps act has in reality nullified the act. Since 1922, the authorized en- listed strength of the regular army has been fixed at 125,000 enlisted men, but under the budget policy the Money appropriation has been sufficient for only 118,000 men. Warning that the air corps per- sonnel could, or should not, be in- creased at the expense of other branches of the army was voiced by Maj. Gen. Fox Conner, deputy chief of staff,.just before the air corps bill was passed by Congress. Gen. Conner was the War Depart- ment shokesman on the financial aspects of the army’s air expansion program, Committee Warned. In unmistakable language he in- formed the Senate military com- mittee that, unless Congress and the administration intended to in- crease the military appropriations from the current army total of $265,000,000 to $320,000,000 an- nually, the aviation program could not be carried out. The figure in- cluded both the estimated $30,000,- 600 additional cost for the first year of the five-year air program and provision for replacement. of rapidly dwindling war surplus stocks, another budget problem still to be dealt with. In the course of his testimony before the Senate military commit- tee, Gen. Conner said that, “If we attempt to carry out the provisions of this bill (speaking of the air- expansion program) at the expense of other branches, with no more than $265,000,000 a year, we must lose from 20,000 to 25,000 men from other branches. Such a solu- tion ruins the army beyond the hope of recovery.”’ nder the law, the army’s in- creased air budget must’go to Con- gress this first year as a supple- mental estimate. No such restric- tion is applicable to the navy in- crease. Ia wil] be lumped in with other requirements and, if a fuil year is to be provided for, it prob- ably will bring navy estimates somewhere between $330,000,000 and $340,000,000 for the next fis- cal year, as compared with $319,- 000,000, exclusive of contract au. thorization and reappropriations, in » the act for the current fiscal year. plonder Mules Needed ey Army in Panama “The U. 8. infantry needs longer gules, it developed at the War De- “partment yesterday.

MURPHY | Looms for Coming Session Congress Will Face Controversy Over Rates Fixed in Service Act of 1922, Especially as to First Three Classes. Much discussion is destined to occur ip Congress during the next session over proposed revision of the service pay act of 1922, which fixes the compensation of the per- sonnel of the army, navy, marine ‘corps, coast guard, and public health service, and mae sae over those provisions pertaining to officers in the first, second, wera third pay periods. In the closing days of the last session, a memorandum having its origin at the Capitol, and outlining the alleged invidious discrimina- tions of the pay law, was sent to the War Department general staff for study, and it is understood that efforts will be made at the next session to correct these alleged in- justices to the junior officers. Those urging revision of the pay of officers of the first three pay periods are convinced that officers of the fourth, fifth and _ sixth periods receive sufficient pay, al- though those belonging to the lat- ter periods might take issue with such assertions. Living costs have doubled, and in some _ instances trebled, in the last few years. A captain in the regular army can buy only about half as much with his monthly pay check as could a cap- tain fifteen years ago. . Secretary.of War Davis holds the opinion fat there is no funda- mental def with the pay act, and points out that the only trouble of consequence that has been en- countered is in connection with dis- bursement to officers on account of dependent mothers. This has been removed by an act of May 26, 1926, which contains a provision for ad- judication by the War Department of those disbursements prior to July 1, 1923, whose propriety was questioned by the comptroller gen- eral. However, as all of the de- cisions of the comptroller general are still in effect for payments made subsequently to July 1, 1923, the * net result is that a great many of- ficers that now are.entitled to the allowances for dependent mothers are not receiving them. The wording of the pay law is such that discrimination as to com- pensation among officers would be more pronounced in the army in time of war or national emergency than it is in time of peace. At present, officers of the army, with or without dependents, are per- forming duty at poste and gtations, where they are provided with quar- ters in kind for themselves, and for their families if they have any. In these conditions, officers of the same rank‘ and length of service receive very nearly the same total compensation, the only difference being the subsistence allowance, *vyhich for an unmarried major would be $483 a year less than his married brother officer of equal rank. However, when the army takes the field in time of war or emergency, the difference in com- pensation becomes greater. Two majors of equal length of service, serving in the same regiment, one married and the other unmarried, receive a difference in compensa- tion amounting to $1,638 a year. This difference is occasioned by the discriminatory pay law of 1922, which provides that officers on field duty having no dependents shall not receive any rental allow- ance and only a subsistence allow- ance of 60 cents a day, or $219 a year. The difference is explained thus: The married major receives $1,200 a year rental allowance. and $657 subsistence allowance. With the officers vitally affected and the Secretary of War and his general staff advisors holding op- posite views on the subject, the approaching session of Congress romises to develop lively discus- hen when the matter is taken up for consideration.

REQUIREMENTS SET HIGH bureau of navigation manual-+in or- der that there may be established requirements for command of sub- marines. It is prescribed that to be eligible for qualification for a sub- marine command, an officer must have served on board a submarine a period of at least one year, dur- ing which the submarine must have been operating away from a navy yard and not undergoing overhaul for at least six months. In addition, he must be recom- mended by his commanding officer for qualification as a result of his having shown himself to be dili- gent in the performance of his duties, of having shown marked ability in handling the vessel, in knowledge of the machinery in- stalled, in handling men, and in the tactical operation. of subma- rines. When so recommended. officers will be examined by a board to con- sist of a division commander and two qualified submarine officers. The candidate must also be quali- fied by a medical officer with re- spect to physical factors. Service as commander of a submarine division will be considered as equivalent of service on a submarine. It also is stated by the new reg- ulations that the only formal qual- ification for officers is to command.” An officer once having qualified for submarine command will be considered to re- tain that qualification indefinitely unless his performance of sub- Marine duty is such as to demon- strate his unfitness, in which case the division commander under whom he is serving will report the circumstances to the bureau of navigation and recommend that his submarine qualification be re- voked. Officers previously qualified, who have been away from sub- marine duty for some time, may be permitted a brief period of instruc- tion upon being reassigned to sub- marine duty prior to assuming submarine command. However, unless his qualification has been revoked, an officer once qualified to command submarines is consid- ered to retain that qualification in- definitely, irrespective of the kind of duty he later has been perform- ing.

3 Or NN © Ee By BERTHA R. MARTIN. ° gi stream of visitors and camp guests continues at White Pine camp and it has become a center of social gayety in that portion of the Adirondacks. The President and Mrs. Coolidge have been passing much time during the last week pointing out the beauties of the camp site to John C. Coolidge, their son, who recently arrived at the sum- mer White House. Next week it is expected that friends of young Mr. Coolidge will arrive at the camp, and this fact will give still more gayety to the temporary executive mansion. Latest reports from the Adirondacks are that the President and Mrs. Coolidge will return to Washington about September 17. They will find many improvements in the White House to inspect. when they come again to this his- toric home and settle down for a long winter other engagements must be canceled in favor of a Wnite House invitation. In the case of hostesses who have dinners on White House nights they must content themselves often with lesser notables. 7 + . * mdf gear OUT” is one of the leading occupations of Washington society. During the season the dinners of the ex- clusive set here rival in brillilancy and per- sonality of the guest lists those of any capital in the world. As some one has said, they are always interesting, for with “notables to the left of one and notables to the right of one and other notables all around one’’ it Is easy to capture a few for one’s dinner party, espe- cially if the cuisine is known to be excellent and the. host popular. From a political standpoint, dinners are very important events here. Many a political alignment*has been arranged at a quiet little of official and social duties. The President and Mrs. Coolidge and their dinner party and the astute, studying the so- cial columns from day to day, may form a son motored to Plattsburg last week to visit very good opinion of the way the political the citizens’ military training camp now in winds are blowing from the dinners scheduled operation there.

i costly and perishable for the com- SUNDAY. AUGUST 29, 1926. ee By VYLLA POE WILSON. UENN ELIZABETH and Mary, Queen of Scots, striving for the scepter of Merrie England displayed a most feminine trait in the endeavor to outrival each other in the matter of ruffs. Therefore, it is not surprising that those wishing in this day to place themselves firm- ly on the throne of fashion should turn to those alluring and becoming conceits for the throat. The couturiers of the world have| been very busy this summer evolv- ing new conceptions of ruffs and Pierrot-like collars for wear not only in the day but in the evening as well, of fur, feathers, lace and chiffon, often studded with jewels. Tn fact, with every fall gown there is apt to be created in the ateliers of those who hold the reins of fash- ion a ruff to match, whether it is a black chiffon one to go with a mourning gown or a gay, brilliant one to contrast with the black or white gowns of those who are not in mourning. There are all kinds of little feath- ery and rilly ruffs to be worn close up about the neck which cost ‘‘a pretty penny’’ and which are suit- able for many types of gowns. The fur scarfs of the winter often will not be scarfs at all, but ruffs of fur or velvet bordered with fur. Some of the newest coats, too, have ruff collars. Invented in Spain. Women always like to learn the history of any new style and many will be surprised to know that this elaborate form of covering for the neck did not originate in France nor in the court of Queen Eliza- beth designed by the royal lady to hide unbecoming lines of her throat, but it was one of the striking modes of olden times in Spain. The French gentlemen in the middie of the sixteenth century were the first to adopt this Spanish style, and soon afterward it appeared in Eng- land and by the time Good Queen Bess came to the throne it was the most popular, imposing and _ ex- pensive article of neck apparel for both men and women. Like many other conceits of the toilette the ruff was worn exclusive- ly by ‘‘fine folk,’’ for it was too mon people to indulge in for the high cost of living pressed them too closely for mere shelter and food. Sometimes the peasants of France and the poorer groups in #ingland wore lawn ruffs on gala occasions, but they bore little real relation to the elaborate and beautifully- made creations of the kings, queens, lords and ladies of Mayfair. Twenty yards of the finest and most sheer material was not too much for a ruff when designed by a courtier of the court of Elizabeth. Naturally those worn by the queen and her rival cousin, Mary of Scots, contained even more expensive material than that used by courtiers and their ladies. Just as we are using maline and chiffon today, the exponents of the ruff, when it was in the height of its glory, pleated it down the cen- ter a yard and a quarter or more wide and bound it with a firm bind- ing like bands of jewels, brocade or velvet. Stiffened With Starch. The Pierrot bands and ruffs of today find much of their beauty in their softness and chiffony charac- ter, but in the days of good Queen Bess they were. stiffened with Dutch starch and fluted with sticks or bones to hold each pleat up. So eager were the gallants of that day to hold their ruffs up and out that ‘‘struts’ were made of wood or bone, and when lace was combined with the fine hand-woven materials ru was also boned. It #$ appears, therefore, that the use of bone and stays can not be laid entirely to the door of. historical women desiring small waists, but to men as well who wished to parade in their stiff and unwrinkled ruffs. Some of the ruffs were edged with priceless lace, which had to be ripped off every time they went tv the hands of the expert ‘‘goffer- ers’’ of the day. These gofferers soon became. financial plutocrats and it was a real art to do up a formal ruff. The world moves: too fast today for such exactitude in dressing, and it is to be doubted that a single American ‘man could be found who would be willing to endure the tor- ture of a ruff about his neck even for the sake of being in the ultra mode. Men are more or less slaves to fashion fads even if they will not admit it, but such refined cru- elty as a ruff they would not toler- ate under any circumstances. Sometimes a touch of dye was used in laundering the ruff, which, combined with the starch, gave an even more original efféct. Ended by Desire to Be Happy. At may be a mere coincidence that the gradual throwing off of the ruff in favor of the band came as the world at large was awakening to the odd fact that liberty and pursuit of happiness for mankind were synonomous. First the ruff became a moderate one as seen in the Van Dyck portrait of Charles I, which was turned over to lie down like a collar, and later por- traits were painted of him in a fall- ing band which is very like what we know today as an Eton. collar, but wider and without an opening in the front. The ladies of the world courts fivst were the ones to leave the stiffening out of their ruffs and wore them like a collar or bertha pulled down, in front, but with some stiffening to make them stand up in the back. To this fashion can -be traced the very low falling off ‘the shoulder type of neckline: as the lovely women pulled doewn their bodices .more. and more, probably rivaling each other as te just how much of their charms _they might . | display. Of course, from bands came the stock of linen and lace of satin or brocade for the meh with their ac- companying falls of lace and the fine under sleeves trimmed with lace,’ which were really more ef- feminate, but much mote comfort- able than the’ stiff ruffs. There is still another revival of {Bock Wear which, however, does not ‘This latter style will ‘ ay more than. 20 or 25) 54 ered pits te abe ‘% Rita FY ihe ee = AY ge RES EE re Be We See Py MRS Underwood & Underwood. . WILLIAM E. BORAH, wife of Senator Borah, in a coat of white crepe de chine embroidered in all-over effect in pastel shaded carnations and white daisies with gold centers. With this Mrs. Borah wears a wide-brimmed transparent white straw hat and a white crepe de chine gown band of ribbon or the material of the -gown for day time wear tied in a bow in the back. In the days when Gibson first made the Ameri- can girl famous, the belles owned many shades and varieties of rib- bons of this kind already tied with bows, to be hooked or pinned on. The zenith of this style marked the use of yards of ribbon wound tightly and not over becomingly about the throat... Let us hope for moderation if this style endures. Gold Mesh in Turban Style. While the decollete of the eve- ning gowns is very low in the ad- vance showings, the ruffs and Pier- ret bands and frills are in the fcre- ground. There is a decided tend- ency to use some kind of neck covering for all daytime gowns, whether it is detachable or the kind that can be unfastened and throws back to display the tnroat. be the best choice for the woman to whom a collar is not becoming. In spite of style the wise woman will choose becoming neck lines rather’ than smart ones. Dolly Madison would smile ap- proval on the evening head dresses designed for this winter. They are elusive affairs of silver and gold and colored mesh, worn turban fashion, and fastened with some kind of a pin at one side. In fact, the turbans are really nothing but lengths of the materials which are wound on after the hair is dressed and fastened with the pin or. brooch, the latter often matching the pendant earrings. As there is a reason for most striking new styles, the one for this turban headdress can be traced eas- ily. Bobbed hair does not:go with certain ‘types of formal evening ‘dress and again there are always women who are in the state of let- ting their hair grow and. the tur- bans do much to soften the effect of the awkward length through whick every one’ who has bobbed air will have to go if they wish again to, have long and luxurious tresses, Like the ruffs, many women are matching these turbans to their eyes with a careful consideration of just what-effect the colors will have on their complexion.

Sport Wear at White Pines, Those who have enjoyed the hospi- tality of the summer White House, White Pine camp, come back with glowing t@les of Mrs. Coolidge as the chatelaine of a summer vaca- tion home. Those: who have been fortunate enough to receive an in- vitation will carry with them pleas- ant memories of the first lady of the land amidst the sylvan homey loveliness and good cheer she has created. Mrs. Coolidge encourages the wearing of sport costumes at White Pine camp in the most effective manner by wearing them herself. Over the breakfast urn on the lit- tle outside dining porch she pre sides in a becoming crisp well-cut gingham gown which fits in well with the picture. | Mrs. Charles McLean, niece of the Secretary of Commerce and Mrs. Hoover, who has been the guest at the Hoover home on § street, wore for a dinner recently a pretty frock of soft taffeta embroidered in bor- | How I Dress y Hair y Ed fi lace Hopper The b ooo acon see Pon ‘ally on air. beautiful It is wavy, glossy and abundant.

Mme. Ricardo Vago, wife of the retiring attache of the Argentine embassy, wore recently a daytime costume of white crepe made with a deep open tailored collar and neckline filled in. with tucked vestee. The skirt had an inverted pleat in the front from the knees down. With this she wore a wide- brimmed white felt hat trimmed: with a simple grosgrain ribbon band. Senorita Valentine Lecuna, of Venezuela, who has been entertained by the younger diplomatic set, had on at a tea a gown of black chiffon and black lace made up over white satin. This had a molded bodice and long sleeves tight to the elbow and then finished with shaped flounce-like pieces matching the shaped inset of the skirt. This had a round neckline and she wore a wide brimmed black chiffon hat with it. - Pearls on Skirt. Miss Corinne Wagner, daughter of Col. and Mrs. John D. Wagner, has a gown of heavy black crepe romaine embroidered in effective designs in fine white pearls in panel effect from the shoulders to the hem of the skirt. There are roundles of the pearls down each side of the skirt from which strands of the pearls hang. This has a shallow round neckline and no sleeves. Miss Rosemary Griffon, daughter of Mr. Paul H. Bastedo, wore at a recent luncheon for young people in Italy, a gown of white crepe made on girlish lines with a tail- ored collar slip on over-blouse and pleated skirt. Her hat wasa wide, white felt one trimmed with gros- grained ribbon. Miss Diana Cumming, daughter of the Surgeon General of the pub- lic health service, and Mrs. Hugh L. Cumming, has a gown of rose crepe romaine made with a long bodice elongated by a flared skirt. With this she wears shaded roses on her shoulder. Miss Josephine Weller, who has just returned from a visit in Canada, wore one day last week a gown of heavy white silk made on girlish lines and a large plain white hat. Mrs. Harry Wardman is very fond of two-piece sport dresses and has one of heavy flat crepe finished with cordings about the bottom of the skirt and the slip-over tailored long sleeve blouse. With this she wore a soft white felt sport hat. Gown of Silver Mesh. Mrs. Lewis Morrison, of Atlanta, Ga., formerly Miss Josephine Willl- ford, wore on a recent visit to Washington an evening gown of silver mesh embroidered in colored flowers over a silver slip. This had a round neckline. Mrs. William P. MacCracken, wife of the new Assistant Secretary for Aeronautics of the Department of Commerce, had on recently a gown of black crepe silk cut plain, but with a decided flare at the bottom of the skirt. To maintain the long- flared line there were stripes from the shoulder to the hem. This had a crushed collar, tied in a soft bow at the back, the forerunner of the revival of this kind of neckwear. The sleeves were long and rather Mrs. MacCracken wore a black hat with a high crown and medium brim with this costume. Senorita Carmen Grisanti, daugh- ter of the Minister from Venezuela, is wearing a gown of crepe satin made plain except, for the apron front of lovely lace. This gown has a low, wide neckline and no sleeves. Senorita Graceila Machado, who has been the guest of Senorita Gri- santi at the legation, has a gown of crepe romaine with an embroid- ered panel effect of beads in the front. The embroidery is broken at the low waistline to give the effect of a hip girdle, with a cabonchon in front. Short, Tight Skirts Appear, The returning traveler to the National Capital not only parades in the glory of the newest revival | of the ensemble costume, but brave- ly wears short, tight skirts in con- tradiction to the general broadcast that the silhouette is to widen still more at the hem. It is true that a glimpse into the collection of sartorial creations fhese women have brought back from the capitals of the world for this winter reveal that the formal dresses will be fuller of skirt, but the street and daytime frocks and costumes will have a decided lean- ing toward the maintaining of the pencil—tthin line all the way down to the very short skirt hem. The Eton jacket effect and yokes are outstanding features of the new wraps vieing for supremacy with the cape coats which are to be most popular in the ensemble costume this winter. With the popularity of velvet and velvety fabrics, coats will be fash- foned of this alluringly luxurious material but in case of ensembles the gown to go with these coats will be more often of the materiai with which the coats are lined than of the velvet. Sometimes the vel- vet will be used for applique or bindings or the bodice of the satin crepe chiffon or brocade and the skirt of velvet to match the coat. Fur Wearing Declines. The lavish tse of furs of last winter will be conspicuously ab- sent this year unless the fur is very handsome. There is a de- cided tendency shown in the gen- eral use of fur lining. In the case of cape coats, the coats proper are made without sleeves and the over- hanging cape fur lined, doing away | with any suggestion of bulkiness, which the twentieth century wom- an simply will not endure, even in| the name of fashion. In fact, it is impossible to make such a tendency | fashionable. Those of us who dolman-like coats, with their hang- ing open sleeves, as entirely too much out of the mode of last year will long for them again, for this is another revival in what prom- ises to be a season of revivals. Even the shirred-on fur collar, standing high up about the head, has been revived with that kind of coat. Speaking of shirred fur, there has grown up in the furmakers’ art in the last few years a decided cleverness in the manipulation of rich furs, as though they were mere fabrics. This has had a very good result in bringing forward real lines and becomingness in fur garments, but has done away with the economical possibility of wear- ing one fur coat, unaltered for a number of seasons. The _ coat, whether it is of fur or fabric, must conform to the passing mode even more than the gown beneath, for it is wrapped in this garment that womankind faces the world most frequently. Gown Worn by Mrs. Harris. Mrs. Frederick R. Harris has an evening gown of black Chantilly lace over black chiffon and satin. The scalloped lace is in two pieces. The full lace skirt, which is longer than the foundation, is of ankle length. The bodice has a cape back and has a deep round neckline. The low placed girdle is very wide, of blue satin embroidered in silver. With this she Wears and black scarf with deep fringe. Mrs. Harris also has some very becoming daytime dresses. ticularly pretty one is of pink Kasha trimmed with ribbon. The cape discarded our) a large gold A par-' black grosgrained ; is knee length) and is circular and is banded at the | bottom with a 6-inch band of. black | sealskin. With this she wears a large black hat with a wide brim. She also has a white costume made | } in much the same fashion, but band-| ed with three colors of grosgrained ribbon. The large military collar is of white fox fur. Her hat is a large white Milan with a pink chif- fon and velvet ribbon crown. The school girl daughter of Mrs. Harris, Miss Florence Harris, was recently with her mother at the theater wearing a pretty frock of! peach georgette over a satin slip.

A., has wide experience in the installa- tion of accounting systems for the government and for a number of State governments. Business sta- tistics, another of the new courses, will be taught by Ralph 8S. Scott, a graduate of George Washington uni- versity, Leland Stanford Junior and Harvard.

Ruth likes Harry but she is detefmined on a suc- cessful business career rather than marriage. She is sharing an apartment with two sisters, Edna and Hattie Matthews, who are also bust- ness girls, and Hattie and Ruth are taking a night school course in law.

There might be—would be—ways of forcing the Bartons, through Mrs. Dexter, to introduce him into real, moneyed society. He needed it. For the Broadway game was nearly played out.» He must look for fresh, rich territory. So he telephoned; then called at the big, stately, lower Fifth avenue family mansion.

DICTATOR IN GERMANY ‘PREDICTED BEFORE 1928 Berlin’s Theatrical Season Is to Be Dominated by Revues, Is Belief. Berlin, August 21 (By A. P.).— A chair of pacifism has been estab- lished at Kiel university. Dr. Walter Schucking, member of the reichstag, has been assigned to Kiel by the Prussian ministry of education, as professor of interna- tional law and of the history of international pacifism. © Prof. Schucking was one of the five German delegates to the Ver- sailles peace council. For a num- ber of years he had been the chair- man of the Germany section of the interparliamentary union, and at- tended its convention in Washing- ton last year. He also is one of the judges of The Hague court of arbitration. Before and during the war, Prof. Schucking was professor of international law at the University of Marburg. His bold espousal of a “peace without annexations,”’ however, brought him in frequent conflict with the imperial regime. ae u a7 * While bolshevik Russia was burying with high honors Felix Dzerhinsky, the creator of the cheka, or secret police, Berlin’s large Russian colony assembled to honor the memory of those whose death warrants he is alleged to have signed. At the Russian church a special mass was read for the victims of the cheka. Bishop Tihon reminded the congregation of the many Russian bishops, who, he. charged. were either driven naked. out of doors in, midwinter, so that they, aus froze to death, or were tied to the tails of wild'horses and dragged to death. ° . = ° A dictatorship for Germany be- fore 1928 is prophesied by Dr. Max Kemmerich, of Munich, one of the country’s leading historians. The iron man, he says, will come out of the ranks of the radi- cal or liberal parties through a revolution more fierce than that which overthrew the monarchy in 1918. “The revolution will be precipi- tated by an overt act of the mon- archists and by a growing dissatis- faction of the working classes with the present economic policy,” he declares. ‘The left parties will be forced to take drastic action to preserve republican institutions.” . * * * A section designated as “‘art and police’ will be a special feature of the police exhibition in Berlin dur- ing September and October. As this section is to embrace the mani- fold kinds of art forgeries, the Germany association of antiquaries and art dealers has been asked for as many specimen contribu- tions a8 possible. The mu- seums have promised their co- operation. All forms of forged let- ters, books, coins and counterfeit documents are to be shown. The state of Prussia has agreed to un- dertake the insurance of all ex- hibits, and the names of contribu- tors of such forgeries will be treat- ed confidentially. -¢ ® + Berlin’s coming theater season will be dominated by revues. Not less than nine theaters announce revues for the season’s program, thus relegating to the background the comic opera with which the capital was surfeited during the past season, There is keen com- petition among theater managers| for the most graceful dancing girls. They also are searching for origi- nal ideas for their productions. Among the actors and actresses of the legitimate stage the revue craze has produced a depressing effect, as many of them are unable to qualify as Venuses and Adonises.

From the West comes the re- turns of the gala tournaments at Chicago held under the auspices of the Western Chess association. It is apparent that the Western cham- pilonship tournament has been sub- merged to meet the requirements ‘of notoriety necessary to the main- tenance of interest in the grand master’s tournament. And certain- ly such a galaxy of well known con- testants as are participants in the master tournament should over- shadow the interest in that tour- namental Western event which has been occurring annually for about 25 years. The conclusion of the fourth round in the major tourney found A. J. Fink, San Francisco, Charles Jaffe, New York, and Geza Maroc- zy, Budapest, tied for the premier honors with each possessing a score of 3-1. Among the outstand- ing games to date might be men- tioned Jaffe’s defeat of Torre, Fink’s draws with Chajes and Tor- re, Maroczy’s draw with Jaffe and his defeat of Factor. Marshall drew with Jaffe and won from Isaacs. Showalter bowed to Kashdan but came out victorious over Ed Las- ‘ker. Chajes drew with Banks while Kupcehik defeated Chajes and drew with Kashdan. The complete standing of the entrants at the end of the fourth round was as follows: Player. W. Ls | Player. WT ¢- ite ae 3 Se: | OE kT ok a 3 TD Séeeesece ] 2 pemroczy ...... 3 .

Through an irony of fate, an East- erner once more is leading in one of the sections. The standing of the leaders in section A, with the cities which they represent, is sum- marized as follows: Won.

The standing of the leaders in this section is ap- pended: ' Won. Lost. Albert Margolis. Chicago.............. 5 1 mua. Beckner, Louisville. .......cccese 4 1 Orrin Frink, Brooklyn FEO eee 4 ] Ci: M.

Capital City Tournaments, “The games contested in the Kriegspiel tourney at the local club were few in number, but are of immediate bearing on the final re- sult.

The former played prettily and forcefully. It will be noted that at the seventh move the positions were identical with white’s turn to play. It may be laid down as a general axiom that should the second player arrive in the mid- game or its vicinity with a position identical to his adversary’s, the position is in favor of his opponent.

Is this art institution (TI call the bureau of engraving and printing )—for the engraving, print- ing, quality of paper, &c., for United States notes make them the most artistic paper currency in the world —considered a factory? If so now, _ the writer knew a day when it was not so considered. There are vig- nette portraits on some of the Unit- ed States notes which are of the first order. Surely engraving is artistic. So “‘factory,”’ manufacturing work- shop in a misnomer for the art insti- tution officially known as ‘“‘bureau of engraving and printing.’’ Now as to these “underpaid money counters’’ and the ‘“‘lesser higher-ups’”’ of the bureau of en- graving and printing. Three and one-half per cent per month of the money counter’s poor wage is now deducted for the annuity fund for government employes. retired, the government not putting up 1 cent to match this deduction. Not 5 cents a day increase, says ‘“‘Ex-Treas- ury Clerk,’”’- was given these over- worked and underpaid women money counters, though they re- quested that small increase in their hourly per diem pay prior to July 1, 1926. Yet ‘“Ex-Treasury Clerk’’ writes that ‘“‘lesser higher-ups’’— chiefs, semichiefs, section heads— receiving $2,000, $3,000 per annum prior to July 1, 1926, received in- creases of $200, $300 per annum on July 1, 1926. Mr. Editor, there must be some- thing ‘‘rotten in Denmark’’ where these things obtain. Expert money counter. paid less than $5 a day. Is this Coolidge economy under you, Director Hall? Under you, As- Sistant Secretary. of the Treasury Dewey? As the writer has the honor of knowing President Coolidge, stumped for his elec- tion for President, I am of the firm opinion the President would disapprove, repudiate, such psuedo- aconomy. The writer knows of his own . Knowledge of cases of underpaid “money counters’’ in the bureau of engraving and printing whose monthly wage (with 3% percent deduction off now and not even 5 cents an hour increase in pay) does not meet their cost of living. Rents are outrageously high—$37.50 for one room, ‘bath, cubbyhole called kitchenette, on highest floor of an apartment. The Washington rent commission should never have been abolished. That was a direct play into the hands of realtors. As to food ¢osts, permit me to set down 21 major articles of food averaging 60 per cent more in cost now in Washing- ton than in 1913 and 15 per cent more than in 1924. Living will cost Washingtonians more this winter than since 1920. The cost of food has been slowly but steadily rising since May, 1924.1 and yet poorly underpaid women and girls in the bureau of engrav- ing and printing with increase from 2%, to 3% per cent deduction and no increase in daily wage, face these conditions this winter. Some humanitarian senator or represen- tative of Congress is invited to look into these conditions, if official ad- ministrative gentlemen do not remedy them pronto. EX- TREASURL CLERK NO. 2. Republican Party Called Upon to Enact Uniform Federal Election Law, With Ballot- ing Under National Supervi- sion in All Cases Where Fed- eral Officials Are Chosen, as a Means of Making Ef- fective Granting of Suffrage to Négro Race. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: It has been récently maintained that the enfranchisement of the colored race was premature. This conten- tion is unsound, when the enfran- chisement of the colored race was largely for political purposes, as manifested by occurrences from just after the close of the civil war to the presidential election of 1876, after which the militia was with- drah from the South by President Hayes, who had been’ the politica] benefieiary of a military controlled South. The fact is, the colored race was enfranchised for the purpose of being constitutionally included in the electorate, but instead it has been unconstitutionally excluded. Moreover, the emancipation was an ecohomic and a military neces- sity and the enfranchisement a po- litical asset for the Republican party. After the military power had achieved victory, the political pur- poses had been largely accom- plished, and the economic founda- tion ‘had been laid, the Republican . party became derelict, in so far as seeing that the incidental beneficia- issuance of the «mancipation proc- lamation. It is a national disgrace, and constitutes one of the black pages in the constitutional history of the United States, to set a native-born race free, declare it to be full- fledged citizens and grant it the right to vote, which has been held by the courts to be a privilege, al- though the fifteenth amendment declares it to be a right, and then not to see that that race enjoys freedom, citizenship and suffrage, in its constitutional meaning, as participated in by other American citizens born in the United States, or naturalized therein, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof. However, the granting of con- stitutional suffrage is ultimately forthcoming if the Republican party is to successfully compete with Northern and Eastern immi- gration, which becomes Demo- cratic; with a South in which twice as many are disfranchised since the adoption of the nineteenth amend- ment, and with a disgruntled, in- dependent and revolting West, the remedy for which some are favor- able to enforcing section 2 of the fourteenth amendment, which pro- vides for the reduction of repre- sentation in the Congress—and necessarily in the electoral college —on the basis of the disfranchised population, and many others are favorable to enforcing the fifteenth amendment by the passage of an uniform Federal election law, which would permit all citizens of the United States to vote unless disqualified for reasons applicable to all. The fact is that section 2 of the fourteenth amendment and the fifteenth amendment should be read, construed and interpreted to- gether; that is, in pari materia, and legislation should be enacted to effectuate the intention of those who proposed, ratified and adopted the same, if an adequate remedy for disfranchisement is to be mold- éd into law in “the land of the free’’ and “the home of the brave.” The Republican party eventually must enact a uniform Federal election law for its salvation. A law which will protect the integrity of the elections of Federal officials, by Placing the control, management and supervision under Federal of- ficials; separate the Federal from State elections, if necessary, in or- der to put into force, effect and op- eration the Federal law free from the interference’ of State officials; prescribe the qualifications for citi- zens of the United States to vote for Federal officials, and provide penalties for violation of the Fed- eral law. Article 1, section 2, of the Con- stitution provides: ‘“‘The House of Representatives shall be composed of members chosen every second year by the people of the several States, and the electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legis- lature.”” The above has been held by numerous State’s rights adher- ents to vest the power in the several States to prescribe the qualifica- tions a citizen of the United States shall possess to exercise tke elective franchise. Notwithstanding the above, arti- cle. 1, section 4, of the Constitution provides: ‘‘The times, places and manner of holding elections -for senators and representatives shall be pre- scribed in each State by the legisla- ture thereof; but the Congress may at any time by law make or alter such regulations, except as to the places of choosing senators.’’ The next proceeding has been held, by the most eminent constitu- tional lawyers, statesmen and hosts of others, to vest absolute power in the Federal government, under the original Constitution, to control, manage and supervise Federal elec- tiens. H. A. CLARKE. A Banquet That Was Almost a Tragedy “Three years ago at a banquet I was stricken with acute indigestion. Two doctors .worked over me for an hour before I came to. I had had severe colic attacks before, but nothing like that. No doctors or medicine gave me permanent help until a friend, who was at the ban- quet, advised me to take a course of MAYR’S, which I did with won- derful results.”” It is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intes- tinal tract and allays the inflamma- tion which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ail- ments, including appendicitis. One dose will convince or money re- funded. Peoples Drug Stores and druggists everywhere.—Adv.

INSURANCE OF STEEL BUILDING SKELETONS PREDICTED Ao NEAR Will Be Guarantee of Safety and Quality of Construction, A. C. Bossom Says. BEST OF MATERIALS ALSO IS ADVOCATED Handsome Design and Wide Doors Declared Popular in Structures. Insurance for the steel skeletons of large commercial buildings to guarantee the safety and quality of «their construction is predicted by % y Alfred C. Bossom, architect, of New York, in a report on tall build- ings as investments, made for the National Association of Real Estate Boards. The report will be included in the association’s Annals of Real Estate Practice for 1926. Mr. Bossom has been selected to prepare a new volume, Architec- ture; Its History and Appreciation, for the series of real estate educa- yy tional books sponsored by the na- ” A, tional association and published by the Macmillan Co. A steel frame insurance, checked regularly by some method of in- spection that will be invented as the need for it becomes greater, will supplement the present forms of in- surance that can be obtained to pro- tect the elevators, plate glass and various other features that go into the construction of the building, Mr. Bossom suggests. , Careful selection of the site is the first and most important safeguard for the investor, according to the report. The land value, if the site is selected with the right foresight, will increase, though the building deteriorate. Mr., Bossom warns the investor to investigate this impor- tant factor more carefully than any other.

In allowing for the most durable materials here in building, the structure becomes a better long- term investment, and the money spent here prevents greater loss of time and funds in future repairs, the report contends. Wide doors, though they cost more, pay for themselves by use- fulness, appearance and the general satisfaction they provide. These precautions tend to lessen the upkeep, a great factor in in- creasing the returns upon the in- vestment. Beauty in commercial buildings is coming to be recognized as a tangible asset. Mr. Bossom main- tains that the building of good lines and simple appropriate orna- mentation can be rented more quickly than the commonplace building in the same neighborhood, He advocates simplicity, how- ever, warning against the stunt or freak effect in building. The set- back building that is replacing the wall or packing-case type of sky- scraper enables the building to get. natural light and ventilation in the lower stories, and produces a greater possible revenue than the old-fashioned dark office structure. FARM SURVEY MADE BY FLORIDA REALTORS Roads, Soil, Transportation Means and Selling Meth- ods Are Studied. A survey of farm land develop- ment projects under way in Florida is being made by Florida real estate boards under the leadership of the Florida Association of Real Estate Boards. The survey will cover a complete description of land and its owner- ship, available means of transpor- tation, roads, purposes for which the soil of each individual tract is best adapted, and selling methods being used. It is believed by the association that these records when } completed, will be invaluable -in making a general survey of the ag- ricultural development of the State. Attention to the. development of the agricultural sections of the State, in the realization ‘of the im- portance of the hinterland to the State’s urban communities and in a further realization of the impor- tance to the future of the State that agricultural settlement be carried on on agsound basis, has been made a first purpose of the Florida Real Estate association for the coming year. State Can Not Limit Height of Buildings A law enacted by the Wisconsin legislature forbidding erection of buildings more than 125 feet high has been declared unconstitutional by the State’s supreme court. De- cision was made on the ground that a State antiskyscraper law would be an interference with the individual city’s right to write its own building code. The present decision is a re- versal of a previous position taken by the court. The decision will be of interest to real estate boards, many of which are studying the question of how far the vertical piling of downtown construction may best be permitted to go on in consideration not only of economy in building operation but of the effect of building height limitation on the traffic problem and the distribution of light and air.

PLAN E. M. Fisher to Direct Depart- ment Under Full-Time Professorship. KNOWN FOR ACTIVITY IN REAL ESTATE WORK Since June, 1923, Director of Research for National Association. E. M. Fisher,lirector of the de- partment of education and research of the National Association of Real Estate Boards, member of the re- search staff of the institute for re- search in land economics and pub- lic utilities, and author of ‘Prin- ciples of Real Estate Practice,” standard text on fundamentals of the business of real estate, has been chosen to head the courses in real estate to be opened in the fall by the University of Michigan as part of its school of business ad- ministration. The position will be the first full- time professorship in real estate to be created by an American uni- versity. Mr. Fisher will have the title of associate professor of realty management. The university will offer a major in real estate for graduate stu- dents in the school of business administration, the work to lead to a master’s degree in business ad- ministration. It is the plan to be- gin with a small number of classes in real estate so that a great deal of attention and effort can be given to research, On Staff of National Board. Mr. Fisher joined the staff of the National Association of Real Estate Boards in June, 1923, with the title of assistant secretary. He was made director of the department of research and education in 1924. He has had a large part in developing and compiling the semiannual na- tional surveys of the real estate market issued by the. association since 1923, and in developing and compiling the monthly index of real estate market activity, issue of which was begun by the associa- tion in November, 1924. He has also participated actively in the movement initiated by the National] Association of Real Estate Boards in 1923 for systematic organization of the whole field of real estate knowledge into such form as would make possible a definite education in the principles of the business of real estate. This movement has led to the creation of a national joint com- mission on real estate education, representing the national associa- tion itself, the Institute for Re- search in Land Economics and Pub- lic Utilities, the United Y-. M. C. A. Schools, the American Savings, Building and Loan Institute, and ai one time, the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business. The blocking out of a suggested two-year vocational course in real estate, adopted by the commission in November, 1923, subsequently revised and now in use in whole or in part in 200 cities of the United States and Canada, has been another result. Results of National Move. Results further obtained are for- mulation add recommendation of a collegiate major in real estate; writing and publication, under the joint auspices of the national asso- ciation and the commission, of a series of text books; preparation of detailed session by session outlines for vocational classes in real estate; organization of the American Real Estate Institute as a branch of the National Association of Real Estate Boards, to conduct this home study course; assignment annually by va- rious divisions of the association of problems held to be most impor- tant for study.

Located in the salt wa- ters of southern Maryland where the first settlers 300 years ago chose their homes along the _ riv- er’s banks, Piney Point, St. Georges Island and the surrounding country are noted for their fishing, bathing, crabbing and, in fact, all summer and winter sports. Bauman & Heinzman are developing the prop- erty. According to tha announcement made.this week Pinéy Point Shores will be developed along the lines of a well planned summer colony. Mr. Bauman in making the an- nouncement said: “Our firm has been specializing for several years in the sale and development of waterfront proper- ties. We have always endeavored to give the public the best in wa- terfront locations and develop- ments, but never before have we been able to secure a tract of land so admirably suited and adapted for a summer colony where we could offer waterfront lots at less than $100. We seea great demand for such development where a man with a minimum investment can en- joy the best there is in southern Maryland’s waterfronts.”’ Piney Point Shores is located at the end of the State road. It is al- most surrounded by water and in part is a peninsula jutting out into the water. Lying within its bounds is a land locked natural yacht basin large enough and deep enough to harbor large private yachts and private boats, providing a safe anchorage the year round. Lots will be sold on the harbor with riparian rights' thus enabling lot owners to control their own anchor- age. A splendid sand beach skirts the river front while the noted Piney Point Beach is only a short distance away. Stores, schools, churches and other necessary conveniences are within walking distance of the development.

Congress of the new Shenandoah national park, a three-hour drive from Washington, announcement of plans for the new Lee boulevard, a 200-foot super highway through Arlington county, and the vote of the county to take water from the Dalecarlia reservoir, all have been important factors in multiplying real estate activity in Arlington and Fairfax counties.

Douglass Cites Houses! on Ninth Street on Saving in “Accessories.” KITCHEN UNITS PROVIDED By JAMES E. DOUGLASS, of Douglass & Phillips, Inc. A few years ago when a man pur- chased an automobile he immedi- ately had to add a number of costly accessories, such as a spare tire, bumpers, windshield wiper and other items really needed for the effective of Now the machine comes equipped with these necessaries. The new owner receives his pur- chase as a complete unit, and has no immediate additiona! expense as formerly. This Same tendency toward more is noticeable in the homes of today. In the past no inconsiderable sum had to be ex- pended upon a house before it was ready for comfortable occupancy; screens had to be installed, shades provided, many items of kitchen equipment purchased and similar expenditures made. But more and more in recent years have the builders made a distinct effort to present their creations in what an auto dealer would call ‘fully equipped’”’ condition. Illustrative of this trend are the new group dwellings on Ninth street, just above Madison street northwest. The average visitor to these homes comments enthusiasti- cally upon the apparent mre given each detail of construction, lauds the kitchens, where even an enam- eled table is provided, praises the bath with their built-in fixtures and Samson china accessories, and com- mends the lawns inclosed by gray rubble stone walls and sodded front and rear yards.

Wire & Sons De- velopment Began in the Spring of 1925. ANOTHER GROUP PLANNED What has proved to be one of the most successful homé develop- ments in the National Capital is that of Charles E. Wire & Sons, in Chevy Chase Grove, In the spring of 1925, this com- pany broke ground on Rittenhouse street northwest for the first of these houses. To date twenty-one detached residences have been erected on Rittenhouse and Runny- mede streets, between Broad Branch road and Nevada avenue, and on | Broad Branch road and. Nevada | avenue, nineteen of which have | been sold. | These houses are of a distinct ‘and individual design combining several different types of architec- ture, and contain from seven rooms /and three baths, to ten rooms and three baths, with large landscaped | grounds. | One of the reasons for the success of this operation is the fact that the | builder acquired the whole block of | ground, and installed streets, side- i walks, and alleys, so as to offer to | the purchaser an entirely completed | project. Mr. Wire stated that this is the largest detached house devel- |opment ever attempted in the Chevy | Chase section. . | Another group of residences, sim- | ilar to the above operation, is con- |templated in this immediate vicin- |ity, operations to start during the | early part of 1927.

ACK JOUETT'S RIDE TO SAVE JEFFERSON OBSERVANCE SEP, & National Celebratoin Planned at Cuckoo, Va., to Com- P memorate Event. BOULDER TO MARK SITE OF HORSEMAN'S START Messenger, Who . Probably Prevented Capture of Lead- ers, to Be Honored. A national celebration to be held September 6 at Cuckoo, Va., will commemorate the historic Jack Jouett ride that saved Thomas Jef- ferson and the Virginia revolution- ary legislature from capture by British troops. A boulder 7 feet high and 4 feet wide was found in a deep ravine 2 miles away from the town and hauled by mules and tractors, with twenty citizens helping in the work. This boulder spot where Jack Jouett began his famous ride. The boulder, with | the gold star embedded in it, will | be unveiled by Mrs. Glassell Fitz- hugh, of Charlottesville, regent of Jack Jouett chapter of the | Daughters of the American Revolu- | tion of that city.

It was a shrewd stroke of military | genius. Jefferson was at his home | at Monticello: and in the nearby itown of Charlottesville were Pat- rick Henry, the fiery orator who had demanded liberty or death; ‘Richard Henry Lee, who had intro- | duced the resolution in the Conti- inental Congress for a declaration of | independence, and among the other ‘signers of that paper which repugnant to George III ‘also Benjamin Harrison and Thom- 'as Nelson, ir.

Fortunately, Jack Jouett knew the “short cuts’’ over the hills and covered the 50. miles during that night on his splendid horse. Hardly had Jefferson es- caped from Monticello, when up rode Tarleton and his men. Tourists visiting Monticello to- day see in the entrance hall the hoof marks of Col: Tarleton’s horse just where he rode up the steps and almost into the house seeking his prey, Thomas Jefferson. The Jack Jouett chapter of the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution have marked the spot with a gold star. September 6 a delegation from the patriotic societies of Virginia will. start from Monticello, Jeffer- son’s home, and retrace Jack Jou- ett’s ride back to its starting point at Cuckoo. Stuart G. Gibboney, chairman of the Jefferson centen- nial commission, appointed under act of Congress, is cooperating on behalf of the United States com- mission and also on behalf of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial foun- dation, of which he is president. Gov. Byrd of Virginia has dele- gated Col. John Saunders, attorney general of that State, to address the gathering at Cuckoo on that day. A fitting addition to the exercises will be an address by E. S. Jouett, vice president and general counsel of the Louisville & Nashville Rail- road, who is a great-grandson of the illustrious Capt. Jack Jouett. He will come from Louisville, Ky.

Car lines and bus lines are but a few hundred feet away. And you get homes that really offer value. ‘The arrangement of the rooms will please you. The decorating scheme you'll find particularly attractive. There hasn't been any skimping on closet space, nor any skimping on the quality of the materials used throughout. The architecture in these homes is only found oc- casionally—and never in anything but an ex- pensive, privately ‘built residence. You will also find appointments such as built-in bathroom fix- tures and shower, cedar closets, one-piece white porcelain sink and drain board, enameled stove, Crane automatic hot-water storage tank, built-in garage. Isn’t this better. than paying rent for a place you will never own? These facts may not mean much.in an advertisement, but they will mean a lot the minute you see the homes themselves.

Appreciation is one thing, anyway; adulation, sometimes spurred on by press agency, is another. By the same token, the art of Sir Henry Irving was often over the heads of the populace.

In,the lobby, after the performance, two old women who bad seen the star for the first time were loud in voicing their opinion: ‘‘As a matter of fact, my dear,” said one, ‘this sort of thing doesn’t appeal to me.” It mav be a sign of decadence.

Eugene O’Brien, long fa- mous as a star in his-own right, ap- pears as. Miss Swanson’s leading man in “Fine Manners.” Gloria is seen as a chorus girl, who, on New Year’s eve, meets and rescues from the ‘Times crowd of merry-makers a young up- town patrician whose garb pro- claims him to the girl as a waiter, pression.

AN YRANCISCO, Aug. 28.—As S soon as one reaches San Fran- cisco the charm of the place reems to fall upon one and there is s subtle spell that is difficult to re- bist. Many artists have fallen un- fer this spell and their art has been the better for it. Perhaps it is the pupreme beauty of the bay, the far- famed Golden Gate, which ranks with the few world renowned ports of the world and yields the palm to few if any. Perhaps it is the strange mixture of nations that congregate—Japanese, Chi- nese, Italian and Spanish. Certain it is that there is an allure that is difficult to resist. A little group of artists are liv- ing here who are active and vital. They live largely to themselves and are an inspiration to each other. They are modern in tendency and especially interested in the advane- @€d phases of art. Yet, strange to say, there is not much interest in art in the public of the city, who seem to prefer music to art, by which is meant painting, sculpture and the graphic arts. An exhibition of advanced art will not attract much atténtion and there are few who will attend. But the artists go blithely on their way quite unconcerned as to the ap- proval of the public. Since they sel- », dom sell many of their paintings, ‘how they live is a marvel, except by teaching. And this brings in the second part of the subject—the art schools, of which there are a num- ber of excellent ones. The faculty ef the California School of Fine Arts contains the names of most of the important artists in the city, as for instance, Ralph Stackpole, painter and sculp- tor, Gottardo Piazzoni, Otis Old- fleld and Ray S. Boynton. These men are all doing exceptional work which merits attention. The Cali- fornia School of Hine Arts has new and modern buildings that will soon be opened which are worthy of the faculty and the excellent courses in art that are offered. This school was formerly founded in 1874, but has been reconstructed and ade- quate new buildings will be opened this month. The instruction is de- cidedly above the average. At Work on Murals. But two other artists attract our attention first by reason of the im- ortant work that they are now do- a. These two men, Maynard Dixon and Frank Van Sloun, are the excep- tion that prove the rule. They are both popular, prosperous and pro- They are at work jointly on mural decorations for the new Mark Hopkins hotel, which is be- ing built on a hill overlooking the bay and the whole city. The hotel is massive in form and the murals will be in the ballroom and will de- pict ‘The Pageant of Early Cali- fornians.”’ The figures will form a large freize, life size, and will begin with the mythical story told in 1550 of an island which rose from the sea which was California. Then follows the story of the coming of the Spaniards and the Americans. The two artists working in har- mony have evolved a striking and convincing panorama of the early times and the people who lived then. The completed work will be paternistic rather than realistic. It is simple, dignified and stylistic. There are not many details for these have been suppressed for the unification of the whole. The work when completed will be more im- portant than any mural painting in the city since Albert Herter com- pleted his splendid murals for the St. Francis hotel, which were famed throughout the country. Maynard Dixon himself is an important and interesting artist. Known for many years as a painter and illustrator of far Western sub- jects he has recently entirely changed his style. He is now painting, he says, the way he has always wanted to paint and has only lately dared to. This emerg- ing of the true personality of the artist is a wonderful thing. Often we judge a man by the work that he thinks he must paint to live. Then. he suddenly awekens to the fact that he can paint as he wants to and presto he evolves a new and individual style which is imme- diately appreciated. Mr. Dixon says that it took him 20 yearg to dare to paint as he wanted to and now he finds that his works are more in demand than ever. Art Interests Public. This new manner is along the lines of the progressive art. It is simple, austere and synthesized. For twenty years he has studied Indians and Indian lore and art, so now the process is more one of elimination of the nonessential. In the ‘‘Wise Men” he has painted ‘a canvas filled with the poetry of the vanishing tribes of red men who were wise in their own way. This way is beginning to interest artists ’ and the discerning public in a man- ner that’ has never been before. ‘This is one of the things that is as- ,tonishing in the West today. The Indian is being rediscovered. He is being studied in a way ‘that un- dertakes to probe beneath the mere picturesque surface ang to find-out the mysticism and the poetry of his nature and his relision that is lit- ‘tle understood. Maynard antedates by twenty years the Taos school of painting which is attracting so much in- He has collected OF papal of the Indian totetms, their “decorative art and-their religious ~velies and is thoroughly conversant with them all. He says that the - Indians, among whom he has many rue friends in the past as well as/. at present, have helped him to un- ‘ Bs. erstand the poetry of nature and inner meaning of many things at he would not have known erwise. He has written a book ft poems, illustrated with his own’ igns, which is intensely inter--| sting. The book bears the simple itle of ‘Poems and’ Drawings.” But t is filled with the beauty and the| Th of the soul that haa versal in fs ine with the uni great open spaces and is unafraid and poised. The little book deals with a big subject in a big way. Mr. Maynard is painting land- scapes mostly at present with fig- ures and adobe houses inthem. He contrives to invest with much sig- nificance the trees and background of sky, clouds and softly undulating hills. But there is a significance about these recent paintings that proves them of true artistic fiber. “Blue Four” Is Popular. “The Blue Four’’ painters spon- sored by Mme. E. E. Scheyer, art collector and lecturer, have made quite a loud noise in San Francisco and along the cost. Special lec- tures have been given on the Blue Four who are Kandinsky, Jaw- lensky, both Russians; Feinninger, an American painter, and Paul Klee. Mme. Scheyer aims to pre- sent to the modern world these four painters who represent the most ad- vanced expression in art of the present time. She has been hailed by art critics and directors of mu- seums as an inspired speaker and art critic. From Columbia _ uni- versity to the universities along the Pacific coast she has been enthusi- with keen interest. She has awakened appreciation and under- standing of the modern tendencies in art. ‘‘There is no stopping,’’ she said, “and no standing still. One must move with the times.’’ ‘Art is created out of an inner necessity. Unless one can achieve a subtle un- derstanding and a vital contact with the center from which all creative forces springs, one can never hope to experience art from the artist’s point of view. One must expect to be startled; revelation flashes like lightning. There is no rest—no time to formulate theories. Out of the bud of the present the rose of the future is always opening——never completed—never finished. Yester- day there was impressionism, today there is Cubism, tomorrow will bring us other isms.”’ Mme. Sheyer speaks as one who is burning with the thing she wants to impart and so she is convincing. She has made a great impression upon the artists and is adding to the already flowing current of the progressive tendencies in art with which the Pacific coast’is teeming. Most of the artists in San Francisco are influenced more or less with this tendency. * * * * Exhibitions Are Few. Of exhibitions, although it is midsummer, there are a few that are stimulating. In the Chickering gallery there are two by Emilie The latter is an Italian artist who has exhibited in New York at the Howard Young galleries and re- ceived favorable comment. In 1910 Zampolini went to the Argentine, where, with the fire of his artistic temperament and the inspirating atmosphere and landscapes of the south fused with the tropical sun, he has composed paintings that are original and brilliant in color done with a thick impasto. His “Spring Morning—Argen- tine,” “The Dying Sun,”’ ‘“‘Pyramid of the Sun, Mexico” and ‘Pyramid of the Moon” are particularly ef- fective and brilliant in conception and the method of handling. He has also painted a portrait of Mme. Amelita Galli Curci that is unusu- ally well modeled and strongly painted. ‘His Gray New York” shows what the difference in atmos- pheric conditions will bring forth. Mr. Zampolini will make a round- the-world tour with his paintings and exhibit his works in Rome and Paris. The work of:Emelie Wein- berg, who was a student of Chase and has since made-a special study of the New Mexican Indians whom is strong. The Indians live again in all their gorgeousness, coloring of their quaint dwellings and ap- parel. She has also many portraits that are effective but less success- ful than her Indian paintings. However, her achievement is con- siderable, aa it is individual. = * * Exhibit of Sculpture. In the Paul Elder gallery there is an exhibition of the Cravath school of sculpture. The exhibition con- sists of modeling of children and a few grown-ups. The children's work consists of what they think a circus and: Noah’s ark look like. e animals modeled are naive and ‘| Quaint, not. without a degree of é astically received and listened to }’ | Weinberg and by Z. M. Zampolini. | she studied in their native haunts, | datas ied and show that the train- and ing has been of the very sympa- thetic and intensive kind. Of the work of the adult students there were excellent portrait busts and fig- ure compositions by Jacques Schnier and Fred Rosner. Especially is the figure of a woman entitled ‘Mt. Whitney,’’ excellent in its simplic- ity. ° a The new gallery of the Legion of Honor is the gift to the oity of San Francisco by the late Adolph Spreckles and his wife, Alma: De Bretville Spreckles. It has a mag- nificent site on the top of a hill in Lincoln park, which commands a view of the Golden Gate. The build- ing is in renaissapce style, inspired by the harmonious lines of the Ho- tel De Salm on the banks of the Seine. It is dedicated to the mem- ory of the California soldiers who fell in the great war. Few, if any art museums, have the wonderfully picturesque situation and the fine equipment that this museum has. Within are numerous galleries for the exhibition of old and modern paintings, a wonderful pipe organ and a fully equipped theater whose lighting system is the last wofd in theatrical construction. There are two central courts that. are filled with rare tropical plants, models of Javanese sculp- ture and ancient gothic figures, which make a setting that in itself creates an atmosphere. There is an entire room devoted to the sculptures of Arthur Putnam, the famous California artist. Tfhere are rooms filled with French art and an exhibition of current Amer- ican art. This exhibition is a trav- eling exhibition under the auspices of the Friends of Amercan Art, who are really doing a great deal for the art of the present day. There are here shown good exam- ples of the paintings of Jonas Lie, Randall Davey, Leon Kroll, Jerome Myers, Walter Uffer, Abram Poole, Henry Golder Dearth, Paul Dough- erty, T. H. Dewing and Mazzano- vich. In this museum, only opened to the public last year, there is the largest collection of Rodin’s sculp- tures outside of the Rodin museum in Paris. - * * s Joan of Are Replica. A replica in bronze of the eques- trian statue by Anna Vaughn Hy- att of Joan of Aro has been present- ed to the palace of the Legion of THE SARDINE BOAT BY ARMIN HANSON, of Monterey, Calif., awarded prize in the International Printmakers Exhibition. Honor by her husband, the well- known art collector, Mr. Hunting- ton, and will soon be erected in the plaza in front of the palace, facing the Golden Gate. The original statue is on Riverside drive, New York, where it is considered one of the finest equestrian statues in the United States. * * * * Interest in Etchings. Great interest is shown in etch- ings in San Francisco, so two gal- leries, Gump’s and Viceroy’s, have special rooms where black and white work is shown. A number of California artists have specialized in etchings. There is the California So- ciety of Ethchers, which is import- ant. Roi Partridge heads the list of the etchers. His work is well known in Washington, as we have had an exhibition of his work at the Smithsonian building and at Dunthorne’s. He is the art director at Mills college and is charActeristi- cally Californian, especially when he etches the great trees that make @& great part of the beauty of Cali- fornia. Calwalder Washburn, John Winkler, who loves to etch the street scones of Chinatown, and Armin Hanson, all are typically of San Francisco. Omission must not be made of the Bohemian club, which has been the leader in things artistic for many years, but at present it is very conservative in its art tendencies and belies its antique name. There are many well-known artists who are amoung its members, notably Arthur Cahill, who painted por- traits in Washington last spring and showed the portrait of Mr. Hoover at the Mayflower hotel; Percy Grey, Ray Boynton, Ferdinand Burgdorff, Matteo Sandona and Gottardo Piaz- zoni. Then there is Ralph Stack- pole, who is doing particularly vital work in sculpture and painting. Ro- wena Abdy, Arthur Mathews, who is considered one of the best mural painters in the country; Lee Ran- dolph, director of the California School of Fine Arts, and Otis Old- fleld. The latter is considered one of the most vital figures in the art life of the city, as he is the leader of the modernistic tendencies, and a strong painter. This is but an im- perfect list of the many good ar- tists in San Francisco, and their work. a Latest Books Tersely Reviewed THE SEA OF DREAMS. By Alfred Gordon Bennett (Macaulay Co.,: New York). The lure of the South Sea islands is felt by the reader as he peruses this remarkably well-written and colorful descriptive romance. Mr. Bennett has written this book with a free and strong hand and yet with the restraint that at no time makes hig frank depiction of people and happenings suggest sordidness. There is the acme of art in the han- dling of the inevitable conflict be- tween Westerm standards and con- ventions and the South Sea world’s morals. The colorful denizens, the golden- bodied half-breed women who lure white traders and settlers are part of the atmosphere of the story of the rosy little land nestling on the bosom of the Pacific. Of course, there is a love story of the white maiden who has lived all her life on one of these islands and the wanderer who comes from over the seas. The gripping strength of the story is discerned in the struggle of this young wanderer against the lure of the islands and his real lov¢, with love at last. the conqueror. It is to be expected that the author of ‘‘Forest of Fears” would write another romance of the atolls of the South Seas as this new work. THE MEDITATIONS OF A PRO- FANE MAN. By “H” (Henry Holt & Co., New York). While it is true that “H’” might va have passed some of the time east put in on this book in a search for the truth yet it is inter- esting because it is bold and ae subtle. It is really surprising to note with what dexterity the author has reached the extreme of each of these: elements. It is not 60 pro- fane, and there is wit and humor in it. profane thoughts in this with questions The book deal q ~ Z life head and heart and the clashing of social conventions. It will be amusing to those of in«uisitive mind to while away an hour in reading it. One thing is certain, “HH” understands human nature of men, women and children. From the intriguing title and the myste- rious identity and the sketchy shirt front, huge white rose boutonnaire and monocle from first to last there is much to sharpen the wit and whet the appetite for introspection on human nature individually and collectively.

This is the prediction of one of the most fascinating books of the month, ‘“‘On the Trail of Ancient Man,” by Roy Chapman Andrews (G. P. Putnam’s Sons, New York). Mr. Andrews followed out that plan in the central Asiatic expedition about which his new book is. writ- ten. Writing of the reasons for this action he says: ‘‘As far as I am awarte the cen- tral Asiatic expedition is the only large expedition which has put this plan into actual practice. ‘‘Moreover, I believe that this type represents the exploration of the future. Today there remains but a few small areas on the world’s map unmarked by explorer’s trails. Human courage and endurance have conquered the poles: the se- crets of the tropical jungles have been revealed. The highest moun- tains of the earth have heard the voice of man. But this does not mean that the youth of the future has no new worlds to vanquish. It means only that the explorer must change his methods. ‘‘We stand on the threshold of a new era of scientific exploration which is just as romantic, just as alluring and just as adventurous as that of Peary and Amundsen, of Stanley and Hedin. In almost’ ev- ery country of the earth lie vast regions which potentially are un- known. Some of them are charted poorly if at all and many hold un- dreamed-of treasures in the realm of science.”’ The exepedition of which Mr. Andrews writes, occurred in 1922, 1923 and 1925 to the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, one of the ancient haunts of mankind. The expedition brought back the dinosaur eggs which occasioned so much comment and much besides outstanding scientific importance and popular interest. The present volume is not a cut and dried recital of scientific en- deavor. It is colorful, written in the field and contains a wealth of picturesque detail. Mr. Andrews has a virile and graphic pen and he re-creates for us on his pages. ‘‘Mongolia, land of painted deserts, dancing mirages, limitless plains and nameless suncapped peaks, of untracked forests and tempestuous streams, a land of mystery, para- dox and promise.’’ The author gives us a new idea about exploration when he decries the necessity for hardships on such parties. ‘‘Ninety-nine out of every | hundred persons think that hard-; ships are an essential part of an) explorer’s existence,’”’ he writes. | “But I don’t believe in hardships,| they are a great nuisance. Eat! well, dress well, sleep well, when-| ever it is possible is a pretty good | rule for everday use. Don’t court! hardships. Then you can work hard and steadily and if a bit of ‘hardship’ does come along in the course of things, you are ready to take it in your stride and laugh while it is going on. If you ask the members of the Central Asiatic’ ex- pedition about their hardships they will laugh at you, We seldom had any, and yet we were exploring a desert where there was virtually nothing to be obtained to eat, ex- cept meat. Wehad 26 men in the field for two years and no illness. Could you equal that in New York?’’ The net result of the expedition was that it verified the prophecies that Asia would prove to be the mother of continents and the home land of the oldest forms of mam- malian life. The scientist and explorer could not afford to be without this vol- ume on his book shelves and the layman will find it a thrilling tale of human adventure, all the more alluring because it is true. Another book of kindred interest is “The Pedigree of the Human Race,” by Prof. Harris Hawthorne Wilder, professor of zoology in Smith college. (Henry Holt & Co., New York.) The Dayton discus- sions have renewed general inter- est in this topic and such technical writings as this furnish material on which to base arguments for the side of evolution at least. The author states frankly that he writes only as a professional zoo- logist ‘‘investigating the history of a single animal species which has become universally distributed and which, in the matter of the nervous system, has far surpassed the pow- ers of all other species.”’ There is small comfort for the followers of William Jennings Bry- an inthe book. Whether we like it or not, and most of us do not, while the genus homo rules the earth and leads the mammalian order from an anatomical standpoint, we con- tain many primitive characters and are not so specialized as other mam- mals. Yet who would barter the unerring scent instinct of the hound for one single human in- stinct or swap our ability to see in the daylight for the talent of the owl to see in the dark. This author follows in the steps of others in making the gorilla a close relation of mankind.

D’s’”’ with ita scintillat- ing brilliancy of attack, the literary world has come to expect rare things of Leonard Bacon and in his latest output, ‘‘Animula Vagula”’ (Harper & Brothers, New York ), neither his friends or his critics need be disappointed. The title is confessedly taken from Hadrian’s Address to his fleet- ing soul. Mr. Bacon’s poetic intro- duction gives us perhaps the best view of what it is all about, He writes: INTRODUCTION This is the legend of a fearful thing That doubtless will not touch the passerby More than a journal murder strikes the eye Of a loiterer on a pleasant street in spring; I was in that horror, when a wing Batlike, brushed out And on high Were fire and vapor of the nether sky That Dante's self had not the art to sing. Yet, of darkness. am I breathless, on the brink emerging, . How I searce know, nor surely could reveal, I who in hell heard the last trumpet peal, And saw destruction of the soul and worse, And a new Heaven and a new Hell emerging From the chaos of a ruined Uni- verse. ‘“‘This is the road to Hades’’ the poem begins and if all reports are true it is a wey that is pretty crowded, at times. Of course, Mr. Bacon exercises his poetic license and gets himself out of Hades at last in “Animula Vagula,’’ a privi- lege we fancy will not be accorded to all sojourners in that land of departed spirits. Here and there in the book are stanzas which attract and hold the attention and which will linge/ in the memory. For instance, this stanza: Yet “T have found at the Bottom of all things the height, unknown future in the un- known past, The first of things commingled with 4 the last, Stability in water, motion in rocks, Sight in my blindness, blindness in my sight, And truth perpetual in a paradox.”’ The There is wisdom in such sayings and Mr. Bacon is to be congratulat- ed on his virility in philosophy and his facility in expression. His vo- cabulary is one also which is equal to the strain of a poem of such! length. There is no paucity of rea- sonable rhyme in his stanzas, and | some of his rhymes are novel and seldom seen. Mr.’ Bacon in this thrilling re- cital of a deep emotional experience done in the form of enduring verse has enhanced his own reputation and made a real contribution to con- temparary literature as well. A volume of verse of quite differ- ent character is ‘“‘Voodoo,”’ by An- nice Calland (Harold Vinal, New York). The tawny beauty of the tropics smiles in many of the lines, and those cast in Haitian scenes are particularly effective. Echoes of the sea float through the stanzas as well and the lines are vivid with color and life. The depths of human woe are sounded in these eight lines: THE DERELICT. An old man walked on old wharf As aimlessly as though He had no hope in all the world, Nor any place to go. He passed, I saw that he was dead, Had died, yet did not know. Dear God, may I be not as he When my last dream shall go. That there are other facets to Miss Calland’s genius may be seen in the final poem of the book, ‘‘The Vanishing American,” which is virile and unusual in treatment. A Washington author, J. W. Rogers, in ‘‘Madame Surratt,” a poetic drama in five acts (Judd & Detweiler, Washington), has given us new lights on a tragedy which will always possess a fascination for students of American history. Passing through the pages of Mr. Rogers’ book, which from a typo- graphical standpoint is most at- tractive, are historic figures whose very names are synonomous with the civil war period. The book opens in Act 1 with a scene at Ar- lington cemetery, where the shades of the nation’s great and good gather to lament over the tragedy which is to come—the death of Lin- coln. With considerable ingenuity Mr. Rogers has introduced Pow- hatan, Francis Scott Key. Patrick Henry and George Washington and others into the scene. After they disappear John Wilkes Booth ap- pears and in a mad oration declares that he ‘‘will snatch a firebrand to light the world—will tear this dark- ness from my native sky and set the Southern cross in glory there.”’ The second act introduces the White House and Lincoln.

The close acquaintanceship claimed for her in this volume with the conspirators is not a mat- ter of general historical knowledge. Graphic pictures are drawn of the death scene at Ford’s theater before riding breeches came into | The author has | Erick Berry for “Father’s by Alice Cushing Gardiner and Naney (Doubleday, Page & Co.) and the arrest of Mrs. Surratt. The shooting of John Wilkes Booth is also depicted, and another quaint Washington figure of yes- terday, Beau Hickman, is shown in a-street scene of the National Capi- tal which follows upon the shoot- ing of Booth. The final pages deal with the | frenzied appeals of Annie Surratt to President Andrew Johnson to \save her mother from the rope, and the dark picture of Mrs, Sur- ratt being taken to her death fin- ishes the dramatic poem which is interesting but on the whole not convincing and adds Httle to the sum total of knowledge about this impassioned and tragic moment in our national life. a News Notes of Books and Authors - Benjamin De Casseres has at last consented to the publication of his brother Walter’s poems, after hesi- tating for 26 years, The Seven Arts Publishing Co., 160 Fifth ave- nue, believe that these poems, writ- ten by a boy between his 16th and 18th years, are of sufficient caliber to classify Walter De Casseres as “the American Chatterton.” Prof. Leonard Charles Van Nop- pen, formerly Queen Wilhelmina professor of Dutch literature at Co- lumbia university, has affirmed that the poems of De Casseres’ are superior to any poems written by Poe, Keats, Shelley, or Blake at that age. They are simple, lyrical, mournful and sadly sentimental. Walter De Casseres’ ‘‘The Sub- lime Boy,’’ may be compared to the poetry of Heinrich Heine; whom he had never read; and his fate has | been compared to that of Chatter- ton, the English boy, poet who com- ' mitted suicide at 17. | Walter De Casseres, an eighth nephew of the Dutch philosopher, Benedict Spinoza, was an Ameri- can, born in Philadelphia, who in 1900, at the age of 18, threw himself into the Delaware river. Though surrounded with a home, affection and a good position, he did not believe in life. A great genius, he had no longer any illu- sions when life had just begun. Benjamin De Casseres, the poet, satirist, essayist and thinker, has written an introduction to the poems of his brother, giving the facts of his life, the reasons for his suicide, and a masterly analysis of this boy. After some fifteen years of silence Lincoln Steffens, the veteran muck- raker, comes along with a news story on a subject just about 4,000 years old. “Still a reporter, you see,” he says, and calls his new new book “Moses in Red,” the revolt of Israel as a typical revolution. It will be published about September 20 by Dorrance. The author reports his discovery in the revolt of a per- fect parallel with the modern revo- lutions he has followed in Russia and Mexico. Upton Sinclair says, “No Christian can understand the ways of God in our time until he has read it,” and Dr. Clarence Ed- ward Macartney, former Presbyte- rian moderator and present funda- mentalist, replies, “‘The author of this book is a total stranger to the Carl Sandburg, Elinor Wylie, | Nathalia Crane, Walt Whitman, Ed- gar Allan Poe and Ralph Waldo Emerson are the ‘first poets whose work will be reptresented in a series of ‘“‘Pamphlet Poets’’ to be released this fall by Simon & Schuster, as reprint publications. The group of “Pamphlet Poets” is being edited by an advisory com- mittee consisting of John Prskine, Louis Untermeyer, and Joseph An- thony, with Hughes Mearns acting as general editor. From six to ten more ‘‘Pamphlet Poets’ will be added each year, in a cumulative series which will do for American poetry what the ‘‘Modern Library” has done for novels and essays. “This series of ‘Pamphlet Poets,’ ’’ say the publishers, ‘‘makes available the best of our American poetry in a popular priced series of beautiful reprints. Each pamphlet will consist of the most enduring and most representative selected verse of one eminent poet. The text is set in fine large type on excellent paper. A brief biography of the poet, a critical estimate of his, work and a complete bibliography are in- cluded in each pamphlet. “Because of the unimpeachable taste and care shown in the selec- tion, because of their typographical beauty and compact convenience, these pamphlets, presenting the out- standing poetry of our greatest poets, should appeal to that ‘audi- ence interminable,’ of which Whit- man spoke.”’ Salome merely danced for the head of a prophet on a salver, but Leung She, South China’s most no- torious bandit chief, went her one better at a recent dinner given to his colleagues for the discussion of ‘‘business.’’ The table decorations, instead of flowers, consisted of the heads of three kidnaped captives whose families had refused to pay ransom.

& {TENOR BANJO , Oh . - * . rd . ee ee ks? & bet , oe ren, me : ‘ Ra Pod abt ot oe OS | a : eas gir! ts : y / By VYLLA POE WILSON. W'state suffrage in the United States celebrated its sixth birthday Thursday and the national organizations of women who have taken the responsibility of furthering the use of the fran- chise by women are checking up busily to see just what has heen ac- complished in this half a dozen years. ~ One eertain result of woman suf- frage has been the increased inter- est of women in civic affairs. They have come to feel that the affairs of their cities and communities concern them vitally as well as the men, and in many places through the aid of men municipal housecleaning has ensued as the consequence of such interest. In Seattle, Wash., a woman mayor, Mrs. Bertha Landes, has gotten actively back of the movement to clean up a deplorable situation in regard to ‘“‘closed dance halls,”’ one of the conspicuous evils of commer- cialized recreation. Looking ahead, there is in sight the woman cabinet officer and, per- haps, within a few years the woman President. ‘‘Why not?” ask the boldest spirits in the onward march of womankind. England cherishes the memories of her two great Queens, Elizabeth and Victoria, nor has history forgotten Maria Theresa of Austria. Yet, strange to say, it is not within the organized’ suffrage groups and their successors that the greatest progress in civic inter- est has been made, but in those bodies of women organized for wel- fare or social service or patriotic work who have come within the past six years to the realization that while they may remain non- Partizan they must be political in the sense of bringing out the vote and standing for the issues in which they believe. One of the outstanding accom- plishments of the administration of Mrs. Alice Ames Winter as presi- dent of the General Federation of Women’s clubs which came just after the franchise was the manner in which she led the 3,000,000 or more women of the federation clubs to take the stand that the bugaboo of political activity in the federa- tion must be faced and if the great body of women were to be effective they must become active politically. This they did with hardly a murmur and it is really remarkable how faithfully they have been able to stand by their motto of “nonparti- san’’ when it is remembered that the council and club membership of the federation is made up of so many types of women. Perhaps it is the strenuous oppo- sition the two suffrage women’s organizations have carried on over the issues as advocated by the dif- ferent groups which has made the women of the country so0 anxious to study and understand the issues effecting women and children and to. take the trouble to see and ob- serve them at first hand. Perhaps no issue in the history of the country has been so vitally considered by the women whether they are of the army of wage earn- ers or of the women who are in the position of employers either through their husbands or fathers or themselves, as the question of equal rights not only in matter of handling the family fortunes, but in the workshop, the schoolroom and the office. After hearing the logical and clever speeches of the National Woman’s Party leaders in favor of equality through the ‘‘blanket” amendment. channel, and the Na- tional League of Women Voters leaders opposing the blanket amend- ment for the reason that they hold it will jeopardize the so-called pro- tective laws for women, the thoughtful woman takes personal stock of the situation either as a worker or an observer and forms | {resi | ¢ ‘eyes of children see. her own opinion. The desire for the equal rights amendment embraces the entire Plan of activity of the national woman’s party at the present time for it takes in the position of women in the home, the school, in- dustry, business and _ profession, her right to serve on juries, to handle her own income, and to be a fifty-fifty partner in fact in all human enterprise. The Natétonal League of Women voters organized in 44 States is more or less concentrating on se- curing legislation, State and nation- al, on a program which includes the merit system in the civil serv- ice as applied to prohibition en- forcement; the extension of the period of operation of the maternity and infancy act with adequate ap- propriations, support of the disarm- ament conference; opposition to proposals which would make amending the Constitution more dif- ficult than at present; a Federal department of education; and op- position to the _ so-called equal rights amendment. . When Mrs. Warren G. Harding came to the White House she, as the wife of a President did not talk politics, a proceding which re- ceived the approval of all. But Mrs. Harding did at all times ex- press her keen interest and hope for a proper Federal prison for women and in this Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, then the wife of the Vice President of the United States, heartily endorsed her sentiments. In fact it was the encouragement and interest of these the splendid women which without doubt gave heart to those who had been work- ing for so long for this project and has resulted in the realization of vision for the most up-to-date in- stitution’ for women of this kind in the world. This is to be a home rather than a prison. It will be an institution run en- tirely by women for women, to house the increasing number of women who are being sentenced for violating the Federal laws. The new prison is to be near Alderson, W. Va., in the vicinity of White Sulphur Springs. Each: in- mate will be afforded a glimpse of the soothing beauty of green for- ests and mountains. Five hundred acres of land have been acquired by gift and purchase. The cottage system, which those who have made a study of prison work de- clare is the best one, is being adopted. In this way it will be feasible to work out the segrega- tion in group system. One of the features of the institution is that there are to be no prison walls and no omnipresent guards, barring watchmen and the necessary pre- cautions for the safeguarding of the right of citizens outside of the prison confines. Fach of the cottages is to be under the direction of a trained matron whose chief duty will be to see that every possible homelike and curative influence, consistent with the situation, is given the women under her charge. There are to be rooms of all kinds and none of the labor, of coursé, will be an undue mental or physical tax on the women. } For the women who need it and wish to take advantage of it, there will be a school in which there will be occupational training along many lines as well as elementary training. The result of the advent of the woman element in the judicial ma- chinery of the United States govern- ment is seen in the ardent manner in which Mrs. Mabel Walker Wille- brandt, Assistant Attorney General, espoused the cause of a Federal prison for women. Mrs. Willebrandt has supervision over all Federal penal institutions, and one of her first acts was to find out about them, often by personal visits. Of those appointed to the ad- visory board of supervision, which includes a long list of those who have practical personal experience in prison work, are Miss Julia K. Jaffray, well known to every club- woman in Washington as chairman of the general federation prison committee, and Mrs. Alvin C. Dodd, of Washington, D. C. Dr. Mary B. Harris, superintend- ent of the woman’s workhouse on Blackwells island, who has been a speaker at many forum luncheons and dinners of Washington clubs and other local and national meet- ings here, is to be in general charge.

POE. pepe of thanks is certainly due from the citizens of Wash- ington to the military band organizations and their leaders who have made the summer happy with their splendid programs in the parks and elsewhere in this city. The utmost care has been taken by the United States Marine band, the United States Navy band and the United States Army band and the United States Army Music school to make the programs entertaining and educational. The large audiences which gath- ered for these concerts were fitting testimony of their need and the en- joyment they give to the public. Another aid to the cause of mu- sic in Washington this summer has been contributed by the radio pro- grams from the local broadcasting stations. Despite the handicaps of static and other weather conditions, the managers have worked faith- fully to provide the thousands of listeners-in with musical feasts. Now that the work of broadcasting in. Washington has ‘been concentrat- ed at one point, a suggestion might be in order. It is that certain much played and sung numbers be not heard more than three times in a given month. To hear them again and again over the radio is to lose an ajpreciation of their beauties. Of cdéurse, the remedy is to switch the dials to another quarter, but the same fault seems to prevail throughout the country. Interest in the District of Colum- bia official song contest is becom- ing nation wide. Inquiries and po- ems are being received from Cali- fornia, Colorado, LIllinois, Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and other States. This contest is being launched by the local Feder- ation of Music clubs and is indorsed by the commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia. The poem con- test closes September 15, to be fol- lowed by a contest for a musical setting for the winning poem. A committee of five prominent men and women will serve as judges for the poem. Three judges are local and two are from out of town; three are literary people and two are musicians, the latter to assist in deciding if the poem can be set to music. The judges are Car] Engel, di- rector of the music division of the Library of Congress; Harold Ran- dolph, director, Peabody institute, Baltimore, Md.; Mrs. Faith Vilas, poet, of New York State; Mrs. Will- iam Wolff Smith, president of the local Penwomen’s league, and Mrs. )\ SS: HARK ~ EWINE .

There is still time, for local people to enter the contest. Poems must have two verses, with or with- out a chorus. The poem best typi- fying the spirit of Washington ahd having a popular appeal will be the one chosen. Poems should be sent, with sealed envelope inclosed, con- taining name and address of con- testant. Return postage must be included. Poems should be mailed to Miss Beatrice S. Goodwin, chair- man, 5 West Lenox street, Chevy Chase, Md. Estelle Wentworth has returned from Atlantic City, where she sang two joint concerts with Paul Alt- house, Metropolitan opera tenor, on the steel pier last Sunday. This is the eighth consecutive year that Miss Wentworth has appeared in special concerts on the steel plier, and the concert on Sunday evening was attended by approximately §8,- representing the 000 people. Miss Wentworth motored to Atlantic City and was accompanied by her husband, Al- bert Parr; her mother, Mrs. George Wentworth, and her aunt, Miss An- ne Hurdle. Esther Dale, the American prima donna soprano, who recently re- turned from a European concert tour, smashed all the rules against encores at the Hollywood bowl a few days ago. The enormous au- dience would not be satisfied until she responded with two encores. It was even more of an ac- complishment that she held an open-air audience of 10,000 persons | in their seats through a brief Cali-| first | in, the Metropolitan theater today, fornia thunderstorm. Her numbers were the Mozart aria, “T,,Amero, Saro Costante,”’ from ‘“‘Il Re Pastore,”’ and the Mozart ‘“‘Alle- luia,’’ neither of which had been heard before at the bowl. On her second appearance she sang Gou- nod’s “‘Nobler in His Obscurity.’’ AMUSEMENTS Band Leaders Vie For Populanty Meyer Davis dance music now featured on both upper and lower dance pavilions at. Chevy Chase lake is magnetizing the dance lovers these August nights. Beautiful country surroundings and city ideas of amusement make Chevy Chase Lake the ideal diver- sion spot for the tired folks from town. Relaxation and fun are com- bined in just the right ratio. The Meyer Davis band, led by Ben Levine, which is holding forth on the upper pavilion, and the Davis band on the lower pavilion, led by Tommy Thompson, are stag- ing an unresting battle for popu- larity honors. The vaudeville stunts specialized in by Ben Levine, make his band a favorite with many of the lake fans, while others think that nothing can quite compare to the superpeppery leadership of the Tommy Thompson band. Down on the Beach. Salt-water bathing, fishing, crab- bing, dancing, boating and canoe- ing are some of the many attrac- tions offered at Colonial beach, popularly called ‘‘Washington’s At- lantic (City.”” This popular sea- shore resort is reached by a de- lightful 70-mile daylight sail on the historic Potomac aboard the steam- er St. Johns, which leaves the Seventh street wharf every Satur- day at 2:30 p. m. and every :Sun- day at 9 a.m. A special feature of every trip of the St. Johns both to and from the beach is free dancing on the spacious dance deck, rain or shine, to music by Sokolov’s band.

The latter is still maintaining bachelor hall, pending the return of Mrs. Gates and their two children from a visit to Mr. Gates’ parents Burlesque Star Film Graduate A distinct addition to the noie- worthy players who have recently come into Columbia burlesque cir- cles'is Miss Kaa Hamilton, appear- ing this week with ‘“‘Wine, Woman and Song’’ at the Gayety theater. This is the same Miss Hamilton whom you will recall as the leading woman in motion pictures for stars like Francis X. Bushman and the late ‘‘Wally’’ Reid. She has been in dramatic stock with Harold Lockwood and under the direction of Oliver Morosco. Her last pic- ture engagement was with Frank Farnum in Los Angeles. In the present attraction Miss Hamilton appears as a protean artist in ‘“‘Blanche,’’ an intensely dramatic sketch of her own writing. Van and Schenck Coming to Karle To add further distinctions to a season which already has brought many famous stage celebrities to the Capital, the Earle theater an- nounces the engagement for an early appearance in this city of Van and Schenck. These singers and comedians, famous in musical com- edy revue and vaudeville, need no introduction to the National Capital nor does their work need descrip-| tion or encomium. They are in a class by themselves. Every one knows that they are, and it is suffi- cient to pack the Earle merely to state that they will be there. Skittish Hupp Puzzles Larry Residents in the 1600 block on Varnum street are considering the installation of higher stone battle- ments to protect their front yards during the time Lawrence Beatus, manager of Loew’s Palace theater, is mastering a verv skittish Hupp six to. the m them the traffic bureau. In the.m Nitime, all of Mr. Beatus’ neighboig, have posi- tively forbidden their children to go off the front lawn until he has completed his novitiate behind the wheel. Twentieth Week Here. . When Waring’s Pennsylvanians, probably the most .popular special stage attraction ever to appear in the National Capital, moves from Crandall’s Metropolitan theater to Crandal’s Tivoli to begin a full week’s engagement beginning this afternoon at 3, they will inaugurate their twentieth week as a special added feature of the bills in the Crandall theaters in Washington. On this trip Fred Waring’s band, Tom Waring, his brother, still con- tinuing as pianist and vocalist, has been augmented to a total ensemble | strength of eighteen, 7 Her encore’ numbers were the “Dutch Serenade,’’ by Bos, and “The Star,’’ by Rogers. Miss Lillian Chenoweth, accom- panied by her mother, Mrs. Eliza- beth Chenoweth, left Washington Friday for a trip to Florida, by water. Upon her return she will resume her duties as contralto so- loist with the quartet of the Church of Our Father, Universalist. Gertrude Lyons, lyric soprano, has returned from Chautauqua, N. Y., where she gave a recital in the Chautauqua Institution ampithea- ter. At the services of the First Congregational church to be held these are the problems they are, in the language of the street, ‘up against.’”’ “We must trust our young peo- ple. They are capable of working out the right solution. We should trust all people more. Confidence begets respect. After all, we are all children, some a little older grown. However, our children are living in an entirely different world from that in which we and our mothers were reared. Today we have the problem of the motion picture and the automobile as they relate to the growing and adol- escent oyuth. Our girls, in many instances, attend grammar and high schools, wearing silks and furs, i while our boys, in many cases, ride to and fro in expensive cars. Be- cause of this, certain abnormal standards are set up-and we all know how hard it is for the ’teen age girls and boys not to be able to do the same as their fellows. “The establishment of a home economically is a much greater source of concern than it used to be. Our crowded cities, the present system of apartment-house living when they are children, make it very difficult to maintain a high standard of home life. Please do not consider this pic- ture pessimistic. I do not mean it to be such, but rather a plain and unvarnished one of the difficulties modern life has to consider in the establishment of a home. And al- though these great changes have come to the home, removing it from the simple thing it was 50 years ago to the very complicated one of modern times, yet the outlook is hopeful, for wise forcasting and taking of stock is the best harbinger of fine, substantial and enduring homes for the future. It is the best preventative of marrying in haste and repenting when too. late, “Your committee has followed the line of work outlined by Mrs. John Dickinson-Sherman, president of the General Federation of Wom- en’s Clubs, as the survey of the equipment of the American home here in the city of Washington. We have met frequently and ear- nestly talked the project over and have had the counsel of Miss Oben- auer, who is head of the survey for the general federation, at three of these meetings which has been val- uable. We have worked through the public utilities companies and also through the District building, through Col. Bell and many others there who have given us the great- est assistance. Our survey is not vet completed, as we are endeavor- ing to make it one of the most comprehensive reports that will be presented, as Washington is the city upon which so many eyes are focused to see just what conditions prevail here. We have spent much labor on this and expect to spend much more before it is completed.”’ Not only are there auxiliaries of the District chapter of the Ameri- can Red Cross in local churches, but in a number of women’s organiza- tlons and communities of the city Red Cross groups work steadily in She will sing the solo, ‘‘Let the Words of My Mouth,” by Charles T. the interests of the various activi- ties of this great agency of mercy.

A letter was also read from the president general, thanking the fe- gent for her interest in better films, and. the chapter for its splendid work during the last year. Mrs. James Major sang a group of songs, KHdna Lee Unrush gave three charm- ing little interpretive dances, and another little girl, a C. A- R. mem- ber, Elizabeth Schutt, sang three songs; Miss Catherine Wells played a Chopin waltz, and Mrs. Stiefel, - Schubert's ‘‘Serenade.’’ Mrs. Stiefel was assisted by her house guest, Miss Cole Clements, of Baltimore. The Soroptimist luncheon was held at the Lafayette hotel Wed- nesday. Among the guests were Superintendent of Police Maj. Ed- win Hesse and Inspector, Charles Evans, and they told of the great preventive work being done by the police department and especially by the woman’s bureau. Maj. Hesse said that in certain cases, especially when dealing with young girls and women, the women’s bureau was indispensable. Ruby Lee Minar, one of the Washington Soroptimists, told the guests how the women of Wash- ington had banded together for civic betterment and mutual bene- fit and how they were helping one, another to success. Mrs. Idelle Conkling, a Soropt#- | mist, of Seattle, Wash., and also the educational secretary for Free- masons, told of the elvic work be- ing done by the Soroptimists on the West coast in the interest of chil- idren and also how Mayor Bertha Landes was put in office by the men of Seattle because she had proven herself so efficient as the director of the city’s committee. Mayor Landes is a director of the Soroptimist club, of Seattle. Mrs. Conkling spoke of the Pa- cific coast conference, now in se@s- sion, which has as its object the bringing together of all the scat- tered Soroptimist clubs and form- ing a national organization. Mrs. Katherine Ainsley, of the budget bureau, was among the guests and gave a short talk.

The District chapter quota must be ready for shipment by the first of October, if not earlier, and the bags are being made now. The kindergarten exhibit by the Woman's club of Bethesda at the Rockville fair is of special interest to women. This exhibit occupies two booths’ in the Woman’s build- ing. It demonstrates actual kin- dergarten work. The work of chil- dren in various kindergartens is displayed, both craft and drawings, as well as two projects which were executed by kindergarten children. ‘The farm exhibit consists of an arrangement of farm buildings made by the children from blocks. The other project is called by the trained kindergartner in charge, Miss Stevens, the wind project. It shows a sandy stretch of coast line with a lighthouse, a building here mill, and typifies to the child the force of the wind, not only in its destructive, but in its constructive aspects as well. These projects, intended to make the child more observant, are only two of many which are carried through the kin- dergarten year, Miss Stevens said. The committee in charge of the exhibit and also responsible for the educational idea back of it consists of Mrs. E. L. Stock, Mrs. E. M. Brann, Mrs. W. M.

Lawrence Beatus, manager of Loew's Palace theater, was forced to alter the vigor of his new cool- ing system during the recent wet and cool spell. Although the Pal- ace cooling system is guaranteed to drop the inside temperature 20 de- grees cooler than the street, the prevalence of outside temperatures in the sixties forced Mr. Beatus to temporarily suspend cooling opera- tions to save himself the necessity of knegxing icicles off the cash cus- tomer Finetly Comes Home.

Two large build- ings in Washington have arranged recently to purchase power, in- |stead of continuing to generate it. |These buildings are the Arcade, at | Zourteenth and Park road, and the ‘Woodward building. at Fifteenth and H streets. The change-overs were handled for the Potomac Elec- 'tric & Power Co. by C. M. ‘commercial engineer, and his sen- ior assistant, ©. H. Renfro, both /members of the Electric League of Washington. Washingtonians soon. will be able to ask the Electric league what minimum of outlets is con- sidered electrically correct, from a viewpoint of adequacy, and get an answer that can not be questioned. The matter is being considered carefully, and will form a part of the plan of ‘the Electric league standard for adequate wiring. The work is being done by a committee headed by Frank T.

To be prepared in case-an emer- gency arises wherein it becomes necessary for the staff artists to fill in, Mr. McLeod has his plans laid in advance and merely puts them into execution. Several times recently through local storms, it has been necessary to discontinue gome piece of outdoor remote con- trol broadcasting. The task of sup- plying a program has then fallen on the shoulders of the studio staff and Ithink Icansay without boast- ing, and I am upheld in this opinion by the response from the radio audience in the form of applause mail and favorable comment in the press, that the staff carried off even greater honors than the program for which they substituted.

Every male member of the staff was in the service of the government during the recent war and the mafority of the male per- sonnel are commissioned officers in the organized reserves. The major portion are commissioned in the army signal corps and the radio section of the naval reserves, but several of the men of the program department are officers in the in- fantry, cavalry and other divisions of the line army. Even the women on the staff are war veterans. BERLIN WILL BATHE BY ELECTRIC SUNLIGHT Artificial Riviera to Accommo- date 3,000 Persons at One Time. The most elaborate application of eiectric sunlight yet attempted is announced from Berlin, Germany, where there is to be built an arti- ficial Riviera large. enough to ac- commodate 3,000 bathers at one time. It will be inclosed and lighted by electric sunshine rich in ultra- violet rays, in which the patrons can bask and acquire real tan. There is to be an immense swim- ming pool, the floor of which wil] be lighted by electricity, and upon the roof of this a sun bath of-artificial funshine. Visitors, for an admis- sion fee of approximately 10 cents, will be permitted to have a swim and then stay as long as they wish in the artificial ‘‘sun bath.” Spe- ¢*e! times are to be reserved forthe use of schools. The enterprise is being financed largely by the city of Berlin as a public health measure, and accorg- ing to report, the nécessary capital of about $1,250,000 has been raised. - i, ltindio Broadcast Station WMAL ‘M.

This conference coordinates the activi- ‘ties of the electric leagues so that one community will know what the others are doing, and so that the people who live in one place will not be left without the advantages which residents of another loca- tion, in so far as things electrical are concerned. John C. Harding entertained a group of electric league members at Sommaville, his summer abode on the Potomac, Friday, on a fish- ing party. The group included Ollie Ross, Ed Bateman, Doc Sou-. der, C. P. Hill, Joe Kirchner and Jerry Mackessy. The Rockville fair, yearly pride of Montgomery county, is being graced by the cheerful presence of Bob Thomas, and his assistants this year. Rs L. Thomas, president of the Thomas Electric Co., member of the electric league, gives farm- ers an opportunity to have light, although power companies do not reach .their farms. Mr. Thomaas handles the Delco light plants for this section of the country. It was recently set forth in these briefs that Joseph Kirchner, of Biggs & Kirchner, had completed a new home in nearby Virginia which was wired for electrical convenience and comfort like an electrical man’s house should be wired. Now comes word that this same Joe Kirchner is stepping about in a new sedan and hauling other members of the Electric league to fishing places and elsewhere. The union contractors group is holding meetings every Wednesday at 12:30 p. m. in the City club. This group, which is composed of nine- teen members, some of whom are the oldest and most loyal support- ers of the league, is more active than any of the others. Its chair- man is president of the league, and over this and other countries just, George B. Colbeck, for years treas- what the very lighting is. The Blectric league is happy to call to attention of its members the many new installations of mod- ern street lighting in Washington. In a few more years, going at the rate now established, Washington will be one of the best lighted cities in the country. Warren B. Hadley, electrical engineer of the District and honorary member of the Elec- tric league, handles the local street lighting situation. One of the aggressive merchants who is heard from so much in what is known as Columbia Heights is Edward R. Seal, electrical con- tractor-dealer. Mr. Seal has been a member of the Electric league since its organization and always has supported all of its many ac- tivities to advance the electrical art in this city. L. T. Sounder, president of the electric league, for Association island, Henderson Harbor, N. Y., to attend a confer- departs tomorrow latest in electric| urer of the league, is its secretary. The Stanley-Crandall Corpora- tion, headed by a Washingtonian, is | rounding into readiness for use, one of the biggest and finest theaters Maryland has known for some time: in Frederick. This accounts for the frequent absence from the city of L. T. Souder, president of the Elec- tric league, who is in charge of the electrical work at this new theater. Members of the league should |'make a special effort to attend the ‘September 9 meetjng of the league, to be held in the Blue Room of the | City club. | At this meeting Samuel Adams Chase will deliver a talk entitled '“Selling the Electrical Idea to the | Public.” Mr. Chase has just left | the convention of the Association of | Electragists, International, the or- ' ganization of electrical contractors, and is now at the conference of ‘electrical league representatives. |He is special representative of the | Westinghouse organization, and does much toward educating to | things electrical.

The heaviest line in the East—the first 220,000-volt transmission line east of southern California and -Arizona —has just been built, running 65 miles from a new generating sta- tion at Wallenpaupack Pa., to help supply that section of the State with energy tat will not fail in any weather. But the men who built it had to pioneer their way through various unknowns. No 220,000-volt lines had ever been built to withstand the loads of ice that will a¢cumulate on wire in Pennsylvagia’s rigorous winters. So with the aid of a fleet of farm trac- tors and winches, the conductors, each consisting of 54 strands of aluminum in three layers and seven strands of steel, were stretched to test each one’s ultimate strength, em eR 8 ee ee eee eee Ue es , i é as wad ps ee glee ee papas: © + he a! i¢ Y > 2 Jam ye 4 DE - . . & ' ~~ i ? , - or, . . 1 ?

Since peculiar ground contours were encounteted it was necessary to design some special towers with ball-and-socket bases and supported by sprays of guy wires. These pro- vide a flexibility not otherwise to be secured. Some of these towers are built to sustain a load of 110,000 pounds. Then, after lengths of the pon- derous .wires were strung from tower to tower on insulators 10 feet long, break tests were made to de- termine whether the steel totvers would stand all manner of possible stresses. They weathered this, so | they are expected to weather the heaviest sleet and wind storms.

At a recent conference in Chi- cago representatives of the National Association of Ice Industries, the American Association of Ice & Re- frigeration, the Electric Refrigera- tion Council and the Society for Electrical Development adopted a resolution and newspapers to refuse to publish such advertising, and pledging their influence to abate it. The conference considered adver- tisements emanating from both in- dustries that contained disparaging references and positive misstate- ments. It was agreed that such ad- vertising is not only ill-advised and fruitless but a positive waste of money. It was pointed out that the com- mon problem of both industries is to educate the public to better preservation of foods through ade- quate réfrigeration, that a majority of homes in this country have neither ice nor electric refrigera- tion, and that therefore there is room for tremendous expansion of both, with consequent benefit to the health and comfort of the whole country. requesting magazines” LLL LLL TE AE LT A CC LE SEE A “ett Seem ~ . ne + - 5 rere ee ee .

Friendship is a wonderful thing—nothing can do more to promote good fellowship. BUT is the one who recommends “a friend” to wire your house for you or hook-up an ex- tra outlet really doing you a good turn? Undoubtedly he is—IF “the friend” he refers to is a canable, licensed, practical clectrician, who devotes his entire time and energy to euch work. Too often, though, the Ethiopian’s presence in the woodpile of your wiring job is detectable when you are made to understand that the work will be done IN THE EVE- NING! It is evident that those whose only claim to fame in wiring is evening “side-line” activities can not possibly justify charges for themselves which an ex- pert clectrician must have to keep him expert by keeping him at clectrical work ALL the time! The seeming saving of having electrical work done by an amateur CANNOT generally be really worth while. Especially when you consider the in- convenience, bungling damage to woodwork and Walls—even danger*—to which you are likely to fall heir when an amateur's price persuades you to permit him to do whaf only an experienced elec- trician should. Give every man his due. You, yourself, would consider it an injustice if your own employment was jeopardized by others whose only bid for your position was that. they would work for less wages than you! Think of that and let experience—not price—govern you in your selec- tion of workmen to wire for you. Once done RIGHT vour wiring will be an installa- tion in your house to which you need pay no attention and from which you can demand much in light and multitudes of comforting conveniences.

ie eb od 3 om -_ >> aes ; ’ Fr BOLEA SELECTION HELD VITAL FAGTOR IN HEATING PLANT ——— = _——— eibacturers Aid Contrac- tors by Giving Data on Capacity of Models. CHARACTER OF COAL dosha: bin OPERATION - em Soot in Chimney and Fire Box Cuts Down Efficiency of All Apparatus. ae age - For many years, owing to the miscellaneous rating of heating boilers, there has existed more or less confusion among contracting steamfitters regarding the selection of the proper size of boiler for any given amount of work or to supply a given amount of radiation. This situation has been some- what clarified by the action of sev- eral prominent manufacturers in publishing data and general infor- mation telling just what amount of work may be expected from each type and size of their boilers under certain stated conditions of opera- tion. That is, how many square feet of radiation each size of boiler will serve with a consumption of a given number of pounds of coal of a certain quality, per square foot of grate surface per hour. This is a step in the right direc- tion; indeed it is more than a step, as it gives the fitter some concrete information on which to base his judgment in selecting the right size _ of boiler for any certain size of job. While the published information is of great value to the fitter, and assists him to exercise better judg- ment in selecting a boiler, there are yet a good many factors which must be carefully considered if ef- ficiency and economy are to be de- sired. The coal that is burned in heating boilers is not all of the same quality, although it may have the same heat value when properly prepared. Much of the coal marketed today contains a large amount of culm and dirt, or unburnable substance. Prior to the late war a certain _|grade of coal might have contained possibly 5 or 7*per cent of wnburn- able, matter; today it is not un- usual to find 10, 15 and 20 per cent of this unburnable substance in a pound or ton. ‘If the, coal contains 20 per cent of this matter the actual grade surface of the boiler is reguced one- fifth and its rating, or the work it should do, is tionally. Care of Boiler Vital. Another factor that bears greatly upon the efficien¢y of a heating boiler is the character of attention given it. This is spoken of as the humav element, and is a very un- certain factor in every calculation. A soot-encrusted boiler will not give efficient service. Just what reduction in the per- centage of efficiency this factor will show depends upon the character of attendance. Soot is a great non- conductor of heat and it is esti- mated that one-eighth of an inch of soot on the fire surface of a boiler will reduce its oficiency by more than 25 per cent. The character of the chimney is, and will continue to be, an im- portant factor governing the ef- ficient operation of the boiler. A good clean chimney of adequate height and area, properly protected from the effect of the wind, will add more to the efficient service of the heating apparatus than any one other factor. It is conservatively estimated that more than 90 per cent of all failures of heating apparatus to give sufficient warmth are directly traceable to poorly designed or leaky chimneys. The contracting fitter who serves his client the best will select a boiler of such character and ca- pacity that it wil) not be necessary to operate it in severe weather with all drafts open, and consequent ex- cess coal consumption, in order to keep the family warm. Such operation means that much lessened propor- of the heat of the fuel is lost up the chimney and that the flue tempera- ture may be anywhere from 800 to 1,000 degrees, or more, whereas, for economy, it should be less than 600 degrees when the boiler is operated at capacity and very much less than this under normal ditions of operation. con- THE WASHINGTON POST: ‘ FARM WATER SYSTEMS — BRING LESS DRUDGERY Plants Can Be Purchased at Cost Not Above That of Automobiles. FIRE HAZARD IS REDUCED It is a far cry from the days when the first people carried water in stone jars or in the skins of animals. Equally remote now seem the days of the coon-skin cap and the old flint-lock rifle. The last century has seen many developments that have made life more profitable and enjoy- able. Our great grandfathers plowed with oxen—harvested with scythes, and thrashed with flails. Our great grandmothers ran spinning wheels and carded wool by hand—cooked at an open fire, and carried water in wooden buckets from the well or spring. Today! What a change is seen where the farmer is intelligent and progressive. The devclopment of farm water systems has lifted a heavy burden from the shoulders of every one on the farm. It means freedom from back-tiring drudgery for the house- | wife, to have running water in the hosue for every need. Outdoors, it means better livestock and greater profits, with less time spent in mo- notonous chores. Of great import- ance, too, is the real fire protection it brings. A good water system can be pur- chased and installed for about the price of an ordinary automobile. The upkeep is much less. It is indeed a long stride from water carried in jars and skins to running water on the farm piped into every building— every room, if desired, Modern manufacturing efficiency has made it possible at a cost surprisingly low.

P.).—One of the large railroad systems has found a new way to help passengers find money. Due to a custom of some persons of using the railroad trains as money changers, offering large bills in payment of fare in- stead of tickets or bills approximat- ing their cost, conductors have re- ceived instructions which they say are proving effective. When a large bill is offered for a small fare with the usual ‘sorry I’ve got nothing smaller,’’ the con- ductor announces that he is unable to change such denominations and says he will have to keep the bill and receipt for it. He adds that the passenger will receive his change from the railroad “in due time, perhaps in a week.’’ HAPPINESS TNHE modern house- : wife demands mod- mern kitchen facilities. m They are essential to 1 ie her happiness and B peace of mind.

Growing interest in and demand for individualized coach work in quality cars is reflected in reports from Cadillac distributors and deal- ers in every part of the country, ac. cording to H. M.

Who cares now? “Of course the business is just be- ginning. Five years from now wotld There will be a good time to start. be twice as many buyers then.”’ Jordan put the rest of his answers | in the form of six brief paragraphs, as follows: First—General business will be good because credit selling has been to curtailed; money is coming America from all parts of-the world: the and crops will be unusually large; steel business is growing, money is cheap. Second —- Every manufacturer building for volume and price alone will discover that there must be something else besides these things to recommend the car. Third—-There is one car to every six people in the country, but one to about every 72 people in the rest of the world. That means a big in- crease in export business. Fourth-—The tendency will be to- ward the straight eight type of mo- tor and all-steel body.

Sixth—Buyers will realize that trade allowa es on all of the best Standard ma«es are very much the same.

This was accomplished by design- ing an entirely new transmission for all models which gives smooth and silent operation at all speeds These results were obtained through several different improvements. Larger gears are used, which re- duce the pressure on the teeth. New tooth forms were designed, which have more teeth in contact giving a smooth, rolling action and eliminating gear clatter. The trans- mission case was designed especial- ly to dampen gear hum. The coun- ter gears are forged in one piece, adding to the quietness of opera- tion. A large and positive pilot gives correct alignment between the en- gine and transmission. The trans- mission bell housing and flywheel housing have been strongly reen- forced. The result is positive align- ment among all units, which elimi- nates clutch rattle, clutch release bearing noise and gear noise. 200 Busts Reveal Activity of Moderns ity in motor cars is part of a na-| individuality which has been rapidly developing It has in the furnishings of homes, the selection of greater varieties of colors and material in dress and even in changes in school curricula to encourage the expres- sion af individuality, and we believe that the great margin by which the new Cadillac has outsold every it will be still further widened by the new developments of color, luxury, tional trend toward during the past four years. been expressed Cadillac model which preceded New York (By A.

It is interesting to inspect this standard six medel and note its ele- ments of beauty and luxury which heretofore, have been associated solely. with salon creations. Seats are wide and deep with form fitting upholstery of fine Chase mohair with broadlace trim. The keynote of custom caste is carried through eyen to the Butler finish hardware, opal iridescent dome light and the silken curtains at the wide rear win- dows. Several new features contributing to convenience, driving ease and safety are also incorporated in this model. On the instrument board, the gasoline gauge, ammeter, oil pressure gauge, speedometer and an engine heat indicator are grouped artistically under glass and illumi- nated by indirect lighting. Headlights Controlled. The sturdy steel body pillars per- mit full vision and the two-beam headlights are controlled by the touch of a switch, mounted on the steering post. Ventilation is gov- erned by the turn of a handle which tilts the wind shield, flooding the car with air yet precluding any pos- sibility of draft by a system deflect- ing the air channels ,over the heads of the passengers. A coincidental steering and igntion lock is con- trolled by the same key which oper- ates the door and spare tire locks. The first glimpse of this car arouses admiration. The body is finished in rich Studebaker blue and Pewano blue duotone lacquer with pin striping in ivory.

P.).—Sel- dom has an actress returning to the scene of her first triumphs been given a more whole-hearted and en- thusiastic reception than Asta Niel- sen, movie star, by Berlin theater- goers on the occasion of her reap- pearance after twenty years, on the legitimate stage.

Erich Ludendorff, former first quartermaster general, consid- ers the Hohenzollerns unfit to be- come monarch in Germany, in the event of a change of government, according to t Bayrische Um- schau, a paper which formerly sup- ported Ludendorff, but is now bit- terly opposed to him.. Apparently talking ‘‘out of school,” the paper reveals a bit of interesting postwar history. It charges: “In well informed Bavarian circles it is known that it was none other than Ludendorff who offered to Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria to launch his candidacy as emperor of Germany in place of the ‘incapable’ Hohenzollerns. “And it was Crown Prince Rup- precht who declined and reminded the Prussian general of his obliga- tions toward the house of Hohen- zollern. The paper charges that Ludendorff’s ‘political swellhead’ has made a tragic figure of a once famous man. To understand the paper’s anger it must be recalled that Ludendorff recently published a broadside against his former comrade in arms in which he stated that ‘Crown Prince Rupprecht will never become king of Bavaria nor; emperor of Germany despite the efforts of his Jewish friends.’ ” + . > .

When, in 1838, the Prussian government constructed a railroad from Berlin to Potsdam, it became necessary to span the Havel river with the Baekebruecke, then the only rail- way bridge in Germany. The only other steam line, which ran from Nuremberg to Fuerth, had no bridge. The Baekebruecke was never in- tended for the heavy locomotives of modern life.

N America, salesmanship stands supreme. Business authorities con- tend that no people excel Americans in the high art of selling. A good American salesman could sell sand on the Sahara desert. . The Go-Getter and I-Want-It spirit rules the land. Just the other day in New York one enter- prising young salesman sold the Austri- an ambassadorship to another of his townsmen. Given time enough, he might have sold his customer the port of New York. On Sunday last there was a story out of Boston to the effect that three lots of Russian crown jewels had been sold to tailors in that town. They were supposed to be the jewels of the late ezarina. They brought sums ranging . from $63 to $1,500 and, when appraised, turned.out to be paste—right off the counters of five and ten-cent stores. ~ Every now and then stories of freak sales break into the news columns. The Brooklyn bridge is sold quite often. The world, they say, is divided into two classes—buyers and sellers. . Sellers will sell anything, and buyers buy it. There was a farmer not long ago who became weary of the countryside. He longed for the wide-open places where asphalt grows—the cities, with all their sin and serenading. So he sold the old homestead, took the money to a nearby town, had his first ride on a sight- seeing bus, and afterwards purchased the vehicle from the driver who, of course, didn’t own it. Street cars are sold frequently to passengers who, having ridden the full distance on a line, see great profits in eimht-cent fares. Years ago a story went the rounds that some ambitious young salesman had sold the Washington Monument to a visitor. Just what use any one would have with the Monument is a mystery. Access to it is free and, when the ele- vator is working, any one may ride to the top without paying a single dime. So the purchaser of the celebrated old shaft got a good all-round trimming. UNKO men have made fortunes selling their innocent brethren things that belong to the general pub- lic; government property. Since there is an admission fee of twenty-five cents at Mount Vernon and because this one institution does not belong to the gov- ernment, it makes rather a good talk- ing point. The wonder is that some one has not already sold it. Frank Morse, who is in the business of selling bonds, believes the home of Washing- ton has been sold many times by phoney owners. If it has not, some one has been asleep on the job. “It is always easier to sell fake stuff than to sell the real article,’ says Dr. Morse. He cites the wager made here not long ago by a gentleman who bet another that he couldn’t sell a five dol- lar gold piece for a dime. An hour was given in which to get rid of the coin. Starting at the corner of Fourteenth and Pennsylvania avenue the. salesman went to the Capitol and back without success. He offered his five dollar gold piece to all sorts and‘manner of persons. 93 Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, the * 4} wey ee se sonte ~~ > Shortly after the Armistice was signed, two American doughboys electrified Paris by selling the underground railway to a pair of trusting Frenchmen. most. phoney sales. So-called Reubens are not the only ones who fall. Wise guys are hit hardest when they get in the way of a good thing. Retired busi- ness men from the smaller centers are often captured by sharks who infest metropolitan centers.

The rents alone, of course, will carry him along for all fu- ture payments. So when he hands over his certified check for two or three thou- sand dollars, or whatever the boys think he has, he goes away happy in the thought that he has at last entered the class of big property holders. His great shock comes when the first of the month rolls-around and he goes to collect the rents. Former Senator Fred Dubois, of Ida- ho, where he is now enjoying life out on his ranch near Blackfoot, loves to teil the story of a man in the long ago who sold Yellowstane National park to a fel- low who had made a fortune in the oil business. This man wanted to have a great estate, away from the common herd, and got it—rather cheaply, too; for the seller let him down easy; some- thing like fifty cents an acre. Nearer the East, of course, the park would have brought more. It was only the other day that an in- genious citizen, with printed cards and badges, sold fishing privileges for the reflecting pool in front of the Lincoln memorial. There are no fish there; or weren’t until the time the holders of the privileges appeared. Counterfeiters usually ot to. work When the inaugural balls were in order here, fake tickets were oiten printed and dis- tributed at $10 a throw. They were not official, of course, and the purchasers lost. The same is true at the big prize fights. Often, fakers get out a series of their own tickets and manage to dis- pose of them to the innocents, These, of course, are picayune in com- parison to the big phoney sales that are made year in and year out. Just after the armistice was signed, that city to a couple of Frenchmen for something like 25,000 francs. BOUT five years ago a fake sales- man sold a great toll bridge in Pennsylvania to a tourist who had seen the large number of automobiles held up at the entrance-way. The charge, per vehicle, was something like 65 cents. It stood to reason that this was a good business, and as the initial payment was only $1,000, the man parted with his hard-earned cash to find out later, of course, that he had been gypped—as they say in the bucket-shops. Wells Hawks, for many years press agent of Coney Island, was startled one night at closing time to see a man come into the main offices of the amusement park, a gun in his hand, and demand his money; the receipts from the fer- ris wheel. After the excitement was over, and they had all sat down to talk things over in a peaceful sort of way, it was discovered that some one had sold the ferris wheel to this gentleman, and he came to collect his due. Lester Thompson, advance agent for Ringling Brethers and Barnum & Bai- ‘ley, “the greatest show on earth,” told on his last visit here of how certain crooks throughout the land were selling ponies and horses that belonged to the circus. It was an easy sort of thing, too. There were two or three men in this gang. They’d meet some one in- terested in horses; perhaps a man who wanted to purchase one of: the little ° ponies for his children. They’d tell him the circus was anxious to get rid of surplus stock, and had decided to sell off a few of the smaller animals. They’d let him pick out the pony he liked best, take ‘a small deposit, and ask him to call for the animal as soon as the stakes were pulled and the circus ‘ready. to move off. He would, and the circus wezld g2-—~with the pony; or the pony with the circus. Yachts are another medium used by ~ the swinglers. They know that in the heart of every other man lurks the ambition to own a ship. Down here on the Potomac, where some of the finest ships that ever put to sea sometimes come tf rest, a noted phoney salesman made a smali fortune some years ago, selling boats that didn’t b ong to him. victims told no one save members of the family, though one did go so far as to confess to a newspaper reporter. It seems that a very valuable yacht was ' tugging at anchor, admired by all who saw it; especially the man who became ECC i enmeshed in the fine talk of a stranger he met coming ashore from the object of his dreams. The man on the wharf engaged the other in conversation. It developed that the yacht was a burden on its owner’s shoulders; that it cost too much to keep up, and that if any one was interested in making a purchase, here was a chanée for a bargain. “What would you call a bargain?” asked the willing buyer. “Oh, $10,000,” said the other. “But I haven’t got that much.” “Well, how much have you?” ““A thousand.” That was enough, and the first pay- ment made. It was explained that good money could be made carrying fishing parties down to the Chesapeake bay, and out to the capes; that there was also a few coin of the realm to be picked up in moonlight trips down the Poto- mac. And if a brass band were invited aboard, heaven only knew how much might be gathered in; because every- body likes to dance under the moon and over the water. A deed for the boat was turned over to the purchaser who had his eyes open- ed rather widely the following morning when he went aboard to take possession. HESE sort of sales, of course, do not attract much attention; for they are consummated, usually, under a veil of secrecy—and even the man who loses his money on such a venture is rather loath to say anything about it. He might holler for a while, among his friends and acquaintances, but he rarely ever goes to the police. Occasionally, true, some of those who are hit hard eall upon the law for vengeance; but there is slim chance of ever recovering money expended in such sales. The postoffice in .Chicago has been sold so many times’ the count has been stopped. Years ago, that was ene of the favorite pastimes of the crooks in. Chicago ; to sell the postoffice. Foreign- ers usually made the purchase, and it went on the block both as a business venture and as a valuable piece of real estate. Nowadays, however, with the crooks of Chicago paying more atten-’ tion to hijacking and other popular ‘out- door sports, little things like selling the postoffice or the city Jens have no ap- peal. i one sti i ANE AW ‘Mt ENUM ——————————— ee ena TR Nn NUE BUAULIDATANASLPYS SGLATEDE ADA A OEET ATA TOEN SetAN AAU PNOEST By JOHN J. egy ALA ty DALY to a man who was looking for a paying business. It was explained to him that he couldn’t lose since there was a con- tract with the State whereby every in- Sane person had to be quartered there. What with money for lodging and cloth- ing and meals and all those little atten- tions that the insane must have Weath- erfield loomed as a bonanza. So the de- lighted customer paid over his money in cash and took up certain notes that would, automatically, be paid out of the f Yj earnings. He got his up-set when the superintendent had him forcibly ejected from the grounds, with threats of ar- rest and incarceration in the place he had recently bought. Strange how sale, In many things are for if you just meet the right. man. Philadelphia last year two men emerged from the main door of a great. church. The sermon had been particu- larly edifying and the collection large. One man had gone in to make arrange- ments for some way of getting in touch with the poor box when the congrega- tion went home. The other had gone in out of curiosity, never having been in a church before. He confessed as much to the man who came down the steps with him, as he borrowed a match to light a cigarette. “A nice church, that,” said the match borrower. “Not so bad,” said the other, “but we've got to have a new one soon—on account of the growing congregation.” “What’re goin’ to do with this one?” “Well, I think we’ll put it on the market.” “It won’t be much good without the congregation, though, will it?’ mused the other. “No,” said the con man, “but if any one is interested we'll sell the congrega- tion, too.” Interest was aroused, friendship ‘made, the next day the stranger was introduced to the pastor, so-called, and in a week the property was turned over; so that on the following Sunday when the collection plates went into the rectory the new owner of the church went in after them, to find out he had made a great mistake... They haven’t ‘sold the C apitol—yet ; -.but some day somebody will come along who wants to buy it, for it is a very imposing building up there on top of the hill, and there’ll be a fellow ready and willing to sell it; even at a sacri- fice. Once, on the East Side in. New York a smart salesman unloaded a police sta- tion on a drunk who had just been in and ‘paid his respects to the captain. The fellow with a load of mischief thought. it was rather stiff to, have to ’ pay all that money for the slight privi- lege of skating around the sidewalks of ee nn “It must be,’ admitted the drunk, “T’d like to get money that easy my- self.” “Well,” said the other, “if you’re thinking about going into the station- house business, I’m your man. For years I’ve had that property on my hands, and now I want to clean out and take a trip to Europe. any way interested, here’s your chance. All you’ve got to do is have a good force working for you, men who are not afraid to arrest anybody they want to; a good cashier back of the desk— a man you can trust—and in a year or so you can retire.” T appealed to the drunk and he bought the place, only to land more firmly behind the bars when he en- tered and attempted to take the bank roll away from the desk sergeant. Hospitals have gone on the market many times, though it is seldom an in- stitution of this kind is ever sold legiti-. mately. Purchasers who go in for this sort of pastime, buying anything that appeals to them, are seldom particular about looking up facts; knowing who the rightful owners are, or whether the man selling is crooked or straight. Hence the ease with which con and bunko men reap fortunes. There is an old saying that truth is stranger than fiction; yet, it is difficult to believe that in this day and genera- tion persons can be found who are so absolutely dumb. A fool and his money are soon parted, they say. The wonder is they ever get together. The gentle art of bunko is strictly an American product. In countries there has been, and probably always was, swindling; for it is part of human nature. took on its finer shades in the new republic. It is said, too, by old-timers, that the con man had his origin in this city, here on the banks of the Po- tomac, shortly after the civil war. Down on the wharf there was a drinking place, where sports of the six- ties gathered. Newcomers to Washing- ton found their way there. The place was celebrated. The war over, there was keen interest in the surrounding territory, so that it was perfectly nat- ural to ask a stranger in town if he would like to see the spot where Lee surrendered to Grant. “Why, certainly,” was usually the re- sponse. : The boys made up a party, took the newcomer over the bridge into Virginia, ostensibly to point out -the historic spot. On the way, they always met up with a man driving. a herd of cattle to market, and another man, in a car- riage, coming back from the market. He was dressed in costume typical of his trade—boots, corduroy trousers, flannel shirt, soft felt hat.. His pock- ets bulged with money. “A cattle drover back from the mar- ket place, after making his haul,” con-. fided one of the boys to the:stranger, “Want to make some money?” Of course, every one wants to make money. So the cattle drover would be stopped, asked a few pertinent questions about the countryside, and afterward lured into a game of poker, or some such gambling pastime. There was always a convenient gaming parlor nearby, so Stranger, cattle drover and the gang wound up in a gambling den.

EAR HAZEL: ; D I am so sorry I can not join g you ‘at Hootchville for my vaca- - tion, but owing to the investigations ' made by my committee, I calculate I’ve 4 got six years’ work here getting out ' the pay vouchers for the witnesses that were subpenaed. . I was certainly thrilled by the ac- count of your sojourn in the Sunny Southland, and a brilliant idea struck me, Hazel, and now I am spending here at home just the kind of a vacation you are enjoying, and, my déar, you have no idea how uncomfortable I have succeeded in making myself right in my own apartment on the tenth floor of the Hotsy-Totsy. I now have all the in- conveniences which go with a visit to the seashore without stirring out of my own rooms, but I must admit, Hazel, if I had known what trouble I was going to have I never would have had the nerve to go on with my project, as I call it. As for sea nettles, Hazel, you have no idea how difficult it is to obtain >. them in the city. Even the Fish Com- mission has no use for them, but I finally managed to overcome this han- dicap in a satisfactory manner, and now I judge I am having just the kind of a time you are. So, Hazel, you see fam with you in spirit, even though I can not be with you to frolic among the sand flies and beach fleas. My bedroom has three windows, but I got around this, Hazel, by closing two of them and fastening them down tight, and then I took the shades down so that the bright morning sum wowd give me a pain in the frontal sinus at the first crack of dawn, Hazel. This, I find, explains why so many people brag about how early they get up of morn- ings. Well, Hazel, when I had attended to the matter of light and ventilation, I next provided myself with a splendid beach by putting about four or five ‘inchés of sand all over the bathroom _. floor and arranging the electric fan so it |. would blow right on me while in the tub. This has given me one of the stiff- est necks #ve had in years, and I’m sure it is fully the.equal of the one you go graphically described to me in your letter of the 20th. Well, Hazel, as soon as the sun hits me in the eyes of.mornings now I get up from my couch—having taken the precaution to cut four inches off the sheets, top and bottom, so that a part of the mattress is exposed at both ends—and as soon as the tub is full of cold water, with a piece of ice and a gallon of rock salt in it, I hop in, and a crab, which I obtained at the fish wharf, takes a firm hold on my toe. Well, my dear, when that crab gives a good nip I can shut my eyes, Hazel, and such is the power of imagination that I think I'm floating in the briny déep with you. I intensify the illusion by having on the wall that picture of you % _in your new bathing suit that you sent » me and that you were so enthusiastic about, but I must say, Hazel, it doesn’t seem to me to be much to speak about. iit nas nit wii Lain ah insane: att 3; f i ’ } TT ’ 1 | MT WT y ity fae gl am Te te iis tai dat een MTR TAT Hh iH tity WHA Ld MA Wa ny / PAT es Bere Peet + tt MP aos a bila sili HE King and Queen of England entertained at a Garden Party at Buckingham Palace on a re- om afternoon, the account of which I pleased to copy from the leading S Tondon Daily Paper, which reads ag follows: The Marquess and Marchioness of _ Zetland regret that they were unable --and unavoidably prevented from obey- p ing their Majesties’ command to be ent at the afternoon: Garden arty at Buckingham Palace.

As I said, Hazel, at first I had to do witnout a sea nettle, and this dis- tressed me considerably, as I well knew that no. vacation could be considered perfect without one, but although I inquired everywhere, there wasn’t one in town. Well, Hazel, I’m sure you will think I am clever. I put some bumble- bees in one of my closets, and after the morning dip I quickly jump into the cupboard for a minute, and when I have been stung two or three times, Hazel, I even more quickly leap out, and then apply a mustard: plaster to the spots bitten, and in less than a minute, Hazel, I enjoy all the sensations you so feel- ingly describe.

UNIQUE POWDERHORN ae By A. BROWNE RANSDELL. William Whitley, I am your horne; The truth I love, a lie I scorne. Fill me with the best of powder, I’ll make your rifle crack the louder. See how the dread, terrific ball Makes Indians bleed and Tories-fall. You with powder I’ll supply, For to defend your liberty. This poetic legend is inscribed in the own- er’s carving on the two-pound powderhorn carried by Col. William Whitley, famous pioneer and Indian fighter, builder of the- first brick house in Kentucky and the re- puted slayer of Tecumseh. Collins’ History in its description of the battle of the Thames, which occurred in 1814, credits Col. Whitley with the slaying of Tecumseh. Col. Richard M. Jonnston gen- erally has been credited with the killing of the great Indian chief, but those who support the theory that Col. Whitley slew the war- rior point to the fact that Tecumseh was killed by two bullets that entered his body through the same hole and that it was Col. AC A ig a RH ‘ht Heiiuiuhinntvicl sani iinii Whitley’s practice always to load his rifle with two bullets. Col. Whitley was a Virginian, born in Au- gusta, now Rockbridge county, of Irish parentage. He came to Kentucky in 1773 and was in his sixty-fifth year when he volun- teered under Isaac Shelby and marched with other Kentuckians to the battle ground around the western end of Lake Erie. He was killed in the battle of the Thames. The house he built near Crab Orchard of bricks carried on pack horses over the Wilderness trail still stands and a movement is under way to have it made the center of a State park.—From Adventure Magazine. KILLS WHrEDS WITH GASOLINE. Killing weeds with gasoline is the pur- pose of a new garden tool. It looks like a slender cane and is filled with gasoline. The - gardener holds the cane in his hands and presses the sharp point in the ground at the root of the weed. This releases a smal] quan- tity of the liquid, and within three days it is said the weed will die.—Popular Science Monthly. power of imagination that I can think I’m floating in the briny deep. HE principal difficulty I have had, Hazel, has been in getting ‘accus- tomed to corn instead of my regular supply of Scotch. Well, Hazel, I de- cided that the vacation would lack the final artistic touch unless I followed ex- actly the plans and specifications as submitted by you in your last epistle. So I laid in a supply of “cawn,” as you so quaintly express it, which I obtained from a moonshiner down in Prince Georges county in a ten-gallon keg. It is fine old stuff, Hazel, aged in the wood, and the bootlegger assured me it was made ’way back last July. Well, Hazel, the first shot put me in bed for two days, but I stuck it out, and now, Hazel, I can get away with a quart of it a day and wake up in the morning feeling fine. It only goes to show, Hazel, the adaptability of the American peo- ple in accustoming themselves to pro- hibition. Why, Hazel, when I look back on the old days before Volstead, I shud- der to think of the risks I ran, and it was the same with everybody, Hazel. In the old days, Hazel, you: simply walked into Shoomaker’s, Hazel, or maybe you went over to Hancock’s for one of. those frosted Manhattan cock- tails, Hazel, and you stated the case to - the gentlemanly bartender, and when he had filled the prescription you tilted your chin back and let it go, and you /didn’t ask any questions, Hazel. It never occurred to you, Hazel, to ask if it was pure, or what the proof of the liquor was, or whether there was any bichloride of mercury or gasoline in it. No, Hazel, you took your licker on blind faith in those days, Hazel, and how we all managed to survive is more than I can tell. ‘Now, Hazel, thanks to the blessings of prohibition, as you so quaintly- call them, you buy your Seotch, or alcohol, or your cawn, and you have everything tested by a gov- ernment chemist, and you tack the offi- cial report up over your sideboard, Hazel, and all your friends can see for themselves-that what they’re drinking is as gentle as spring water. Thus, Hazel, prohibition has eliminated the element of risk from drinking, and made good fellowship 100 per cent pure. * - ~ * ELL, Hazel, what with Scotch at $10 a quart and cawn at $2 a gallon, I don’t know what the poor smugglers are going to do now for a living. And now that Canada and the United States have entered into an agreement for the enforcement of the eighteenth amend- ment, Hazel, and Gen. Andrews has pledged the resources of the Federal government, up to $100,000,000 per annum, Hazel, to prevent the smug- gling of American bootleg into Quebec and Montreal, Hazel, not so many ‘ people will be spending their vacations hereafter in Canada, and so, Hazel, I think my economy scheme of spending the glad period at home is going to spread, and maybe I ought to get it patented, Hazel. What do you think of that idea, Hazel? There ought to be millions in it with the right kind of publicity. -Well, Hazel, I will talk this over with you when you come back, and maybe: you will want to go in with me on it, and make a stock company. Well, Hazel, I must close now. My dear, I can hardly wait for you to see me, I am that peeled up from the capsi- cum I’m sure you will think I have been on a yachting trip or something, but honestly, Hazel, I have been right here all the time, and I’ve only used up four crabs, so far. One lived six days, and got so expert that he could grab my. toe six inches out of water before I .had even got in the tub. I became greatly attached to him, too. I have had to take one rocker off my easy chair, as I found it was much more comfortable than the ones you describe in your let- ter from Hootchville, and I have swung a barrel-stave hammock in the living room, and that is sure rough on my bee stings. I shall probably need a week to rest up from this vacation, but that’s nothing, Hazel, so will you when you get back. . Well, take care of yourself, Hazel. As ever, PHILBERT. P.S.

This noble animal has already surrendered his place in the streets to more popular machinery. Now it seems that he must re- linquish his monopoly on Washington stat- rate the statues now'in pros- city shun him without excep- * ‘“wuary. At for the any pect tion. There is little cause for grief, however, if he is actually passing from local art. In fact, the most uncompromising horse lover should find complete satisfaction in the fourteen statues already erected here, and which have the advantage of the breathing animal in their capacity to remain. Then Washing- ton, it is said, has the greatest number of equestrian statues of any city in the world. At least, so far as is known, there is no other claimant for the honor, and the dis- tinction therefore might profitably. be al- lowed to rest. The horse has never been as successful in the fine art of sculpture as in the everyday affairs of human endeavor. In his old place of burden bearer in human community life he was perhaps the ledding animal associate of man. and through the peculiar animal char- acter with which he was endowed by nature undoubtedly exerted a considerable influence on human development. ‘The wisdom of the substitution in his place of lifeless machin- ery has yet, to receive the sanction of time. But the art of sculpture will be the gainer in the case of a substitution for horses, for the result will tend in exactly the opposite direction. Sculpture has received few animals within the limits of its lofty world. And those it has received, unless fashioned by the hands of the zreatest artists, have generally been compelled to bear an obvious stamp of in- feriority. The horse has been perhaps the most eligible of all animals for this perpetual life in stone. And yet few equestrian stat- ues have won rank with great art. For the equestrian statues have included man astride the hdOrse. portraits of individuals have seldom attained high merit The art of the sculptor depends for its greatest excellence on the human form himself will fashion out of his own idealized execution of likewise the center of toward the art of sculpture naturally inclines.

This form is which artistic the human gravity ly will e es yg has. been reserved for the memorial to Meade, victor at the battle of Get- tysburg, to break the custom, followed ex- cept in the case of Gen. Rawlings, of rep- resenting civil war leaders on horseback. This work is being executed by the sculp- tor, Charles Grafly, of Philadelphia, and will be completed in the near future, it is said. It will be located near the pretentious Grant equestrian in the Botanic Garden. The design is an elaborate marble group, and is vastly different from any other statue rep- resenting a general of the Civil War. The composition was influenced, however, by the proximity of the Grant memorial, it is ex- plained. A few other works of the immediate future are similar to the Meade memorial in the nature of their ‘composition. There seems to be no set policy among artists to eschew the horse. It rests solely with the artist as to what-his attempt shall be. And yet the new designs give token of a radical change, which is not likely to be momen- tary. According to H. P. Caemmerer, secretary of the commission of fine arts, the statuary now growing out of the world war seems to give evidence of a growing change. This is a natural result, he explains, of epochal changes\in the world. Gen. ‘The ‘Meade memorial in Botanic garden, ‘is be dedicated soon.

The difference between the civil war and The differ- ence in the art of the peace time following each war is likely to equal the historical contrast between the wars. Art, which mimics nature, keeps pace with nature. The civil war was propitious for the erec- tion of a great many equestrian statues in Washington because of the important role the Capital played in the conflict, and be- cause of the extensive use of horses. It seemed eminently right to present a gen- eral of the civil war astride a horse. And because a different spirit pervaded the world war it will result that different forms and different methods will be em- ployed to interpret that spirit, and the spirit of the peace time which the war ushered into existence. the world war was very great. Navy Marine memorial t However, the most important thing is the new life which is now indicated in sculpture. This is the result of the coming into ex- istence of a new epoch of sculpture produc- tion in this country and France in recent times. This revival has been’further stim- ulated in this country by the World War. The change may be observed in the strength and vigor of the newer pieces, in the fact that life is in some way written in them. The .dullness in much of the older A. \peeaoetahodobeseteene ee to be erected in East Potomac park is being modified, but this is the general design. However, it should be pointed out that this is not necessary from the standpoint of art. For the artist may employ whatever forms he chooses to obtain the artistic effect which pleases him most. It would be equally right for him to represent a general of the world war, or any other war, on horseback. The monuments of the world war which will be erected in Washington are just be- ginning. Mr. Caemmerer observes that the best works which will burgeon forth from the late war are undoubtedly still in the future, for it takes the best art which fol- lows a war some little time to blossom out. The war has already been productive of one excellent piece, the First Division memorial, by Daniel Chester French, one of the ablest sculptors of recent times. However, more and better statues may be anticipated for the future, Mr. Caemmerer declares. a * as by %* OR one thing, a great many organizations are active in their efforts to have some particular hero honored. And the wishes of these organizations are generally productive of good work in the hands of the sculptor. Nearly all the statues of the city have been eracted through the efforts of organizations. The merit of the future statues, Mr. Caem- merer states, will undoubtedly be greatly in- fluenced by the increasing tendency among American sculptors to go to the old master- fieces scattered through Europe for their lessons as to what sculpture ought to be. The American Academy in Rome, established in recent times, has ‘greatly encouraged this study abroad, he says. This academy will probably result sometime in the produc- tion of a masterpiece. And naturally this increased study among the art of the masters will excite a greater interest in art itself, and will permeate with a truer tone the ef- forts of Americans. A really noble guild of American elit Ain is active now, and this fact is in great meas- ure attributable to the faithful study of the great art of old. The artists at work now may generally be depended upon to produce good art. : The merit of the pieces erected here has _eteadily improved through the years. work has been succeeded by such a fresh- ness as is brought by a rain. The sourees of both the dullness and the animated life can not be noted by the eye, and can not be expressed Satisfactorily in words. These indications, however, are the chief differences between good and bad seulpture, and all the academic. knowledge in the world cannot surmount the first requisite of life. The only word that ex- presses with any satisfaction the works of Michaelangelo is ‘‘power,’’ and “ineffable sometthing”’ is about as far as phrases can go in describing the pieces’ attributed to Phidias. The reading must be done in the invisible hieroglyphs which form the sculptural lines, and either spell impotent nothing or the most sensitive expression of lofty genius. * of a HE ascenderrcy of sculpture in this country includes the works of the great- est of American sculptors, the late Augustus Saint Gaudens. The excellences which the new epoch will produce in the future lurk in the source that gave it life, modified by the influences of the world, which will shape its course either for good or bad. At any rate, Washington will apparently be its chief prophet to the future, for it will be in the American Capital, according to all present indications, that.-American art will one day be found in great abundance. One of/ the most marked tendencies in the building of Washington—and the build- ing of Washington is goimg on right. now just as the building of Rome once did—is tne tendency among artists and planners to get down to a fine point in matters of pro- portion. This tendency is one of the chief features of the city plan, and its influence pervades the compositions of the principal works of sculpture, which will comprise the ornament stones of the city. The Meade memorial, it is said, will take a place among the best works here. It will not suffer, by the proximity of the Grant memorial. The design is the sculptor’s own, and/’it allows of the very highest artistic expression. The merit of sculpture is rather in minute excellences.than in magnificent architectural schemes, Gen. Meade will be grouped in the_ piece with a whole retinue of qualities. He will be attended by Military Courage, Energy, Fame, Loyalty, Chivalry and Progress, and will be represented ready to step forth from the cloak of battle into a future era of prog- ress. The cloak will be held back by Chiv- Ce ee be Sse . See Pate geen tse in the center, before which Buchanan sits on a slightly raised pedestal. A figure is placed at each end, in sitting posture, and the two face each other across the space semienclosed. The memorial will be the work of the sculptor, Hans Schuler, and the architect, William Gordon Beecher. The design was approved by the Commission of Fine Arts, with the understanding that the sculpture should be of marble and not of bronze. Left, the Italian memorial awaiting comple- tion of Rock Creek parkway, to be ecrected at New Hampshire avenue and FE strects on water front. MEMORIAL to the heroes of the Titanic disaster, which will be erected at the intersection of E street and New Hampshire avenue, on the Potomac river front, awaits the development of the Rock Creek parkway. Authority for the erection of the memorial was granted by Congress in 1917. A design in marble by Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney was tentatively accepted by the Women’s Titanic Memorial association, by whom the memorial is to be erected, and was later approved by the Commission of Fine Arts and the joint committee on the Library, as stipulated by the law. The design represents a figure with arms outstretched almost in a continuous’ horizon- tal plane. The head is erect and the chin lifted. The eyes are closed. The fingers curve downward, as if the arms beyond the wrists were at repose, and this attitude, to- gether with the relaxed and fallen feet, sug- gests such a spirit as legend might picture hovering over the sea at a spot made aweful by tragedy. One of the most radical and unique com- positions ever ventured by a sculptor is the Navy-Marine memorial, the design for which is being modified for the particular spot along the water front in East Potomac park. The design represents a number of gulls rising from an ocean wave. .-This has been made the sole subjest of the monument. The original intention of the Italian sculptor, Begni Del Piatta, who will execute the piece, was to have the gulls about six’ feet in length. However, one of the chief modifications con- templated is a reduction in the size. The number may be reduced also. The chief problem presented by the piece, it is explained, is the fact that the gulls sus- pended in air will rest on the lowest gull, represented on the crest of the wave. This problem is aggravated by the necessity of The Ericsson memorial, alry at his left, alty, who will also raise aloft over his head a standard of wreath and garlands, in com- memoration of the victory at Gettysburg. It will make little difference in the merit of the statue what the figures were -intended to represent. The chief thing will be the artistic realization, first of the individual figures, and secondly, of the group as a whole. Another memorial, authorized by act of Congress in 1918, will be erected to Presi- dent James Buchanan in the southern por- tion of Meridian Hill park, near Florida avenue and Sixteenth street, as soon as this — part of the park is developed. ‘The design of the memorial 1s in the shape of an exedra, with a paneled wall structure and at his right by Loy- making the birds appear natural in their flight. In order to accomplish this the gulls are disposed in a curve, supporting each other with their wings. The composition is interesting because it is highly pictorial. But the sculptor has ven- tured into the province of the painter here, and his chief troubles have resulted from his endeavor to make a piece of sculpture out of a wonderful painting. The composition will probably look better in a picture. And again the sculptor has attempted to make the chief subjects of a monument things which have heretofore occupied only subordi- nate parts in statuary, or have been used as mere ornament. Sculpture is a hierarchy, declining trom the form of civilized man ac- cording to the rank of the thing represented © The importance of the — as an order of life. subject chosen does not seem adequate for a pretentious monument. Several other statues are at present con- templated. Most of these are still in the stage of discussion and proposals. One of the first is the Roosevelt memorial, which is to have a definite location in the plan of the city, a policy which will be followed, it is said, in the memorials to all Presidents and great national leaders. Steps have been taken toward the erection of memorials to Thomas Jefferson, Woodrow Wilson, William Jennings Bryan. Agitation has gone forward for the erection of a monument to baseball. The erection of the First division memorial has had a sequence in proposed memorials to the Second and Fourth divi- sions. sponsored. . . - = HE last sculptural work dedicated here was the memorial to John Ericsson, in- ventor and constructor of the Monitor, un- veiled recently in the presence of Crown Prince Gustavus Adolphus and the Crown Princess of Sweden. The statue is located about 900 feet from the Lincoln memorial, at a point on the driveway along the Potomac. It is the work of the sculptor, James E. Fraser, an able artist, who has executed sev- eral of the best pieces to be found in the Statuary of the city. And so will this piece, when it is finished, for the finishing touches are now being placed on it, rank among the finest works here. Mr. Fraser has chosen Vision, Adventure and Labor as the right symbols of the men- tality of an inventor. Vision he has rep- resented as an inspired woman, Adventure as a Viking, and Labor as an iron molder. These figures are shown as emerging from the Norse tree of life, ‘‘Ygdrasil.’””’ The or- namental work of the poetical conception is wholly Scandinavian. The group of these three figures form the central portion of the statue. The figure of Ericsson is represqented in the foreground, in sitting poyture, engrossed in thought. Above him, and larger than he, are the at- tributes of his mind, forming a unity of symbolical figures, emerging from but en- gaged by the Norse tree—the Norse common soul. The finest piece of sculpture in Washing- ton is the memorial to Mrs. Henry Adams, called “Grief,” and sometimes “Nirvana,” by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, in Rock Creek cemetery. This is the one piece of statuary in Washington before which judgment mus be humble, for a spirit sits there on that ™ rugged block, and the carping eye will miss its message. Notable men and women from many countries have stood in awe before this vision, hidden by a tuft of trees, and Mark Twain, it {fs said, once stood speech- less before it. The remarkable thing about the statue is the handling of the drapery. It is undoubt- edly the peculiar form of the drapery which has given the piece the title of “Grief.’’ The face seems to show a repose from which all earthly troubles are fled. Yet there ig a vestige of past grief in the face, for the fea- tures seem relaxed from. care. But.there is in the face that which seems beyond the reach of both earthly pain and joy, Strongest indication that grief existed is ap- parently expressed in the mantle that wraps the form. And yet observe the mantle again, and there comes a sense that it is not grief expressed in it so much as peace. The disposition of the mantle resembles weeds of sorrow. But there is an indescrib- able gentleness in the folds. The important thing is that the drapery is not merely thrown on the piece for an ornament of covering, but amplifies the life of the statue by expressing subtly the pe- culiar emotion that possesses the individual. Many other minor pieces are being’ it and — and the. The Greeks had a law to carve nothing with- — out life. Dead drapery is as bad in sculp- ture as dead wood in a tree. In this piece the mantle, like the masterpieces of the Florentine sculptors, sion of the character of the individual, and therefore the drapery problem has been suc- cessfully solved. This characteristic may be observed in. the cape cast about the shoulders of Gen. Grant in the Grant equestrian statue. It is impossible to determine just why this cape enhances the vision of Grant, If it were taken off him his figure would be merely a representation of a man. But he becomes an individual spirit and character: wearing it. There are about 50 more important stat-: ues and monuments in Washington.

The fight is a three-cornered one, and the women who are carrying it on so desperately are Mrs. ‘“‘Jimmie’’ Corrigan, Mrs. ‘‘Artie’’ Glasgow and Mrs. ‘“‘Harry’’ Brown.

This year the three aspirants for the honor of being called the ‘‘American Queen of London Society’’ selected this time for play- ing some of their yoldest strokes and doing their best to put their rivals completely out of the contest. And the way these strokes are played, the complete disregard of expense tat is shown, is proving very diverting to English onlookers to whom struggles of this kind are a good deal of a novelty. The contest takes’ on added interest from the fact that each of the competitors is pur- suing a quite different plan of campaign. Kach has adopted an entirely different scheme for strengthening her position in English so- ciety and winning to her support large num- bers. of rich and influential Americans. Mrs. “Jimmie” Corrigan is placing her main reliance on a series of parties that are originality. She _ be- lieves that the surest way to victory is by making what is called in the United States a great ‘“splurge’’—by giving her guests the time of their lives at affairs which keep Lon- don gasping for days for their daring uncon- ventionality and unrestrained jollity. Things of this sort have no such important place in the strategy of Mrs. ‘‘Harry’’ Brown, rivals with a THE CRAZE FOR REDUCING By MARY SHERMAN.

She has use whatever the frivolous section of fashionable so- ciety Known as Mayfair, but .goes seeking her the ultra-exclusive rooms of Glasgow, she carries no for dinner guests in section called Belgravia. If making one’s self talked about means making progress toward the American queen- ship here in London Mrs. Corrigan is un- doubtedly leading Mrs. Brown by a small margin, with Mrs. Glasgow far in the rear. London has seen many extraordinary -enter- tainments but none that was so surprising and at the same diverting—except to a squeamish few—as,the cabaret dinner which she gave a few evenings ago. At this affair covers were laid for 70 dis- tinguished guests. Mrs. Corrigan supplied the dinner and the music by a Hawaiian or- chestra and a jazz band and then relied on her guests to supply, with her encourage- ment, the cabaret part of the entertainment. Everybody had been required to come in fancy dress costume and this helped the guests to enter into the spirit of the thing when it came time for them to take the role of cabaret entertainers. The costumes were a show in themselves——all very amusing and some so startling outside the conventional that some of the more staid guests blushed a little under their masks and grease paint. The hostess had for her escort the Spanish Ambassador. He and she were dressed in burlesque splendor as a king and queen, and were enthroned on a raised dais. The big surprise of the evening, one that brought down the house and set it to clamor- ing for many encores, was an exhibition of the Charleston by—Mrs. Corrigan herself! None of her friends knew in advance just what part she was going to take in the caba- ret entertainment and there was much whispered speculation when the Spanish Am- bassador helped her down from her throne and she advanced to an open space in the center of the room. Her friends in London society have long known that Mrs. ‘“Jimmie’’ is an. extremely versatile woman, but until that evening none of them realized. what an accomptished Charleston dancer she is. She entered into all the acrobatie contortions: of the dance with the expertness of a professional per- former, and the way she twisted, writhed, skipped and leaped through the difficult . setps set her guests wild with enthusiasm. Although nothing else on the program scored quite the hit that the hostess did with her Charleston exhibition, a number of the “turns” given. by the guests were decided novelties and proved very edifying.

It was out of the question for her to attempt to swallow a sword, for she couldn't swallow the lump that filled her pretty throat. Mrs. announced swallowing was sword even So and enthusiasm of the guests growing higher and higher as the program progressed. It reached a really fit- ting climax when Mrs. ‘Jimmie’ discarded her burlesque robes of royalty for a silver skirt and black coat and danced the Charles- ton. After that there was general dancing until long after sunrise. it went, the jollity This party was the greatest novelty London has seen in many seasons and society is not yet through talking about it. Even some of Mrs. ‘‘Harry’’ Brown’s friends are‘ forced to admit that it\outdid in originality the fancy dress ball which Mrs. Brown gave a short time before. But there was one point on which Mrs. Brown undoubtedly surpassed her rival. That was in the distinguished list of guests which Mrs. Brown managed to ‘bag’ for the occa- sion. Figuring prominently among those who put on fancy dress for Mrs. Brown’s gorgeous party were no fewer than three genuine princes and one equally aythentic princes:. They were the Prince and Princess Nicholas Galitzine, Prince Alexander Galitzine and Prince George ofGreece. The sensation of Mrs. Brown’s dance was supplied not by the -hostess herself, but by one of her women guests. She came dressed as an Indian rajah with black beard and curling whiskers and diamonds gleaming in her turban. So perfect was her disguise that nobody suspected her of being a woman, and as the*evening wore on Mrs. Brown and some of her friends began to think that this imposing person really was an Oriental po- tentate who had slipped in to her dance un- invited. But when the unmasking came it was re- vealed that the supposed rajah was really the Countess of Oxford and Asquith——the famous ‘‘Margot’’ Asquith, wife of the for- mer premier. She was the recipient of many congratulations on the triumph. she scored with her costume and make-up...

More years ago than you would ever guess from her youthful appearance she mar- ried Arthur Glasgow, an Englishman. The marriage took place in Virginia but the hus- band at once took his bride to England and there she has lived ever since. Mrs. Glasgow at once attracted favorable attention in society through her beauty and the lavishness of her entertainments. Early in her career here her social position was made still more secure by the favor which the late King Edward openly showed her. The king first met her at Mariendad and he was quoted later as saying that he never saw a.more delightful picture of woman. hood than Mrs. Glasgow presented, especially when was accompanied by her little daughter Marjorie. Although so long a resident of England Mrs. Glasgow is extremely loyal to her na- tive land and many Americans’ are always included among her guests.

IRON MIKE By LEONARD H. NASON. There was quite a blow on, and I was the only. passenger in the dining saloon. It about the fifth day out, and I had managed to make friends with most of the crew, so that I knew them by name, and expected that very soon they would begin to tell me some varns that I might sell for gold. Well, the ship rolled, and the saloon ports were green most of the time. Every once in a while the ship would hit a sea that was like a wall, and I bethought me that the steersman might ease her a bit. ‘“‘Who’s at the wheel,’’ I asked the steward. “Have they got some apprentice up there this weather?”’ ‘‘No, sir,’’ said the steward, ‘ ‘Iron Mike’ steers this boat. He takes her from New York to Cherbourg without a watch below. He’s a husky man, but he can’t meet the seas.”’ After dinner I sought the bridge to meet Iron Mike. It is against the law for land- lubbers to’ go on the bridge, but then, it’s a. poor law that doesn’t get broken once in a while. There was an officer in each wing, who paid me no heed, so I ducked into the wheel-house. Empty. How come. The wheel deserted? Then the wheel give a spin, and a black box beside it winked a red eye at me. How come? Then I perceived Iron Mike. He was a box, and out of him went rods that turned swiftly and evenly. The wheel spun back and forth as if a ghost had the spokes. Was ever a yarn of Flying was - Dutchman or Monomoy wrecker as wild as this? Here was a liner of twenty hundred tons, and this box steered her. The box winked red and yellow, according as the rudder shifted from left to right. (Port and starboard are obsolete terms, gone with dandy-funk and mains’! haul.). Upon the box was a little knob for weather correction, an- other for drift, another for something else. A long gray comber shouldered the liner two points off her course, and Iron Mike deftly brought her back again, purring with satis- faction, and blinking his red eye. Inside the wheel-house were all kinds of dials and indicators, the number of revolutions each propeller made, the actual position of the ‘rudder, a machine that brought a.sample of air trom every compartment of the ship, so that any smoke in said air could be seen at once, the old binnacle and the new gyrocom- pass, bells, speaking tubes, and a fire alarm that rang if the temperature in any stateroom went above 80 degrees—all these things were there, and no one to watch out but Iron Mike. What if Mike let the ghip wander off her course? Ah, at either end of the bridge was a watch officer, who kept his eye bent upon a compass that he had before him. Should the ship fall away from her course these of- ficers, either one or both, would step into the chart-house, but not to poke Iron Mike in the jaw, nor cave in several of his ribs, as in the good old days when a man kept his eve On the weather-royal, and let the ship yaw. No, indeed, the officers would step nim- bly up to Mike, wiggle a wheel or two, give him a shot of cylinder oil by way of grog, and go back to their post on the bridge again, certain that Mike had seen the error of his ways, and would hold the ship well and truly to her course thereafter.—From Advauture Magazine. é ~~ —-+-* 5 wd oa Cae HOW SHOPPERS TRAVEL. Fresh facts for determining the Impor-. tance of parking space are offered by four de- partment stores in the ‘“‘loop’’ districts of Chicago. Checkers stationed at entrances to the stores asked shoppers the means of transportation used in getting to the stores. Of 16,229 persons questioned,*13,549 gaid they used public transportation systems, 964 arrived by chauffeur-driven automobiles, and 716 came in automobiles which they drove themselves. On streets near the stores 452 cars were parked. ~ Those facts may suggest that the availabil- ity of parking space is not decisive in deter- miping store patronage, or they may seem positive confirmation of belief that with a motor, as with a murder, the only difficult ‘problem is where to put the body.—Nation’s Business Magazine: OPPOSITES. ‘‘Now, children,” said the teacher, “tell me the opposite of the word misery.’ ‘‘Happiness.” ‘‘And of sadness?”’ ‘“‘Gladness.”’ ‘“‘And of woe?”’ “‘Get-up!’’—The Progressive Grocer.

S everybody knows who has motored A very much, one can't travel very far without encountering at least a few girl hikers. From Oregon to Maine the high- ways are swarming with these girl adven- turers traveling in every direction, quite un- chaperoned, begging: rides, food and shelter wherever they can and trying to cover as many miles as possible on the least expendi- ture of money. In spite of the way they rough it and live for all the world like professional hoboes, many of them make very attractive figures with their bobbed hair, their neatly fitting khaki skirts and their knapsacks swinging from the shoulder. And when one of them accepts your invita- tion to hop into your car, what amazing stories she has to tell of her experiences— moments of terror when she was threatened by one of’the thugs that infest the country roads as well as the city streets, nights of hardships when she was caught by a storm far from shelter and had to sleep out in the open. : Such adventures as these recited by a girl who is often not out of her teens make you wonder why so many girls take to the road every summer and lead the lives of tramps. Is it because they lack good homes or be- cause they are looking for work Oh, no, in- deed! According to various organizations that have investigated the subject most of the hikers come from prosperous homes of the better class. Many of the hikers on the roads today are college graduates, many of them have good positions as teachers, probably the largest number are high school girls. They are hik- ing simply for the fun of the thing, for the thrill and adventure and satisfaction. in get- ting a few miles farther than some other girl at a few pennies less expense. When the girl hiker first made her appear- ance on the road she was a great novelty. A girl who walked and begged rides from New York to Philadelphia was hailed as a heroine and her picture got into all the papers. Such a.trip as that is no longer worth talking about. There are no end of girls today who can boast of hiking all the way continent. As some of the first novelty wore off hiking its appeal only became all the _ stronger. There seems to be something about it that goes a long way to satisfy the modern young woman’s craving to defy the conventions. Tne fad of hiking has reached such pro- portions that it constitutes what ihe officers of organizations interested in the welfare of young women say is a serious problem. It is a two-fold problem, they assert. One aspect of it concerns the effect of these un- chaperoned hiking trips and*the contacts with all sorts and conditions of people must have upon the hikers. Another almost equally serious side of the problem is the way these swarms of girl across the hikers are taking jobs from girls who really need them and are crowding the same girls out of hotels and lodging houses especially maintained for the girl who has to earn her own living. Many a working girl arriving in some city late at night, tired out and with little money in her pocket to pay for a night’s lodging, hears the desk clerk of the social welfare home say: “Sorry, but we can’t accommodate you. A bunch of girl hikers just took our last rooms. You will have to go elsewhere.” The same girl may find the next morning that a position she could fill and badly need- ed has just been taken by a girl hiker. And the employer, too, has reason for complaint, for probably in two weeks time the girl hiker will tell him that she is through, and he is again confronted with the trouble and ex- pense of hiring and breaking in a new girl. Mrs. Mary Anthony, a New York employ- ment agency executive, says: “Summer is dreaded by every employer in the city be- cause it is then he is the victim of the girl hikers seeking temporary work. All girls taking a position are required to give their word that they intend to remain a reasonable length of time, but employers are learning that the girl hired in summer can’t be de- pended upon. “By the first day of September hundreds of employers who thought they had added one or more capable and efficient girls to their force are informed .that their stay in New York was just a vacation, and they are off for Texas, Oregon or where not. ‘“‘Last summer the situation was so bad that one man who employs over 1,000 girls told me, ‘I don’t want to live through an- Other such summer. After hiring over 100 girls who stayed with me less than a month, I don’t feel as though I ever wanted to em- ploy another out of town girl.’ Of course, it is the girl hikers who are giv- ing the out-of-town girl this reputation. The girl who comes to a big city in search of greater opportunity and better pay than the small town affords has to suffer through be- ing suspected of wanting to work only long enough to be able to continue her hiking. So serious has this matter become that many of the employment agencies are disin- clined to register for employment girls from far-away States. They know by ‘experience that these girls are usually on a vacation and at the end of sometimes as short a time as two weeks will startle their employer by tell- ing him that though he is a wonderful boss they are on the road again. The employer then calls up the agency who sent him the girl and tells them that he is through with its services. And when some honest-to-goodness work- ing girl comes to the city to look for work She finds a disgruntled employer, a suspicious employment agency and a job about the last thing in the world to be had. But this phase of the hiking problem is by NEW GOLD RUSH ON eet By VICTOR SHAW, There has been nothing like this rush since the Klondike stampede of ’98; yet there is about as much gold in prospect as there was along the Yukon, at least so far as has been discovered. No one paid much attention to the coun- try, except for a few desultory prospectors who merely found some veins of galena and zine, until last fall. Lorne Howie then hap- pened upon a deposit of very good gold quartz and came out before the freeze. The rush followed at once, and was in full swing by January of this year. Stampeders staked their claims blind’ upon. the snow, on a gamble. Dogs were bought up.as far west as Winnipeg and sold for $100, $150 and $200 ‘an animal, or $500 for a four-dog out- fit. It is not placer, but quartz carrying free gold. ; The country is heavily covered with gla- cial drift and in many spots the gravels must be cleared away before a vein is accessible, or even to be seen. It is absolutely’ unin- habited: and lies over 100 miles from the Mearest point of the railroad, Hudson on the oN. R. R, _ Red lake is in the district of Patricia, about 40 miles northwest of the outlet of Lac ‘Seule, and northeast of the Bulldog lake section in Manitoba. Northern, pratario bas ——— the richest gold properties in Canada, at the Kirkland lake region. A vein has been opened for 1,000 feet by a syStem of trenches, 40 feet apart, all dug through about 6 feet of overburden. One width of 42 feet shows values of $11 a ton; another width of 27 feet shows values of $50 to $75 a ton. Specimens can of course be picked which show many thousands per ton. Winter travel is via dog team, or air- plane. Snow motors were tried out and failed. An airplane service is run from Hudson, for which the charge*is $100 per passenger, with 50 cents a pound freight. This rate will be lowered later, it is said. Summer travel will be by canoe along the waterways, as soon as the break-up comes. A road is being built from Hudson via the Pine Ridge H. B. post and Pakwash lake. The road is now as far as Pine Ridge. The easiest route is from Hudson, a flag station at ‘Lost lake, up to Lac Seule, which is traversed to its outlet into English river; down English river to Mattawaslake, and up Mattawa river and through .Pakwash lake, Gullrock lake and Keg lake, to the Chukuni river, which is the outlet to Red lake.--From Adventure Magazine.

One of the most extraordinary of these has for its heroine an 18-year-old girl who was hiking from Arizona to New York and who almost got in.the penitentiary when she was actually in sight of her goal, scrapers of New York city. As tk.s young lady was trudging through a suburban town on the outskirts of New York she was overtaken by a young man alone ina car, With the experience born of the sizing-up of hundreds of drivers during the past few weeks she thought that here was a man to whom she could trust herself without question. She stopped him and asked him for a ride and when he said pleasantly, ‘‘Jump in, sister,’’ his manner seemed to reassure her that her judgment was good. But when they left the town and he told her that they would have to leave the State road because it was being repaired and take a detour road she wondered if her first sight estimation of him was so good after all. the sky- Although she began to be a little bit doubt- ful she kept up her courage and tried to show that she wasn’t the least bit frightened. ~All the time she noticed that her companion was getting quieter and quieter, hardly replying to her questions at all. At the same time she observed that the road was very lonely and seemed to have no traffic. Finally they reached a strip of it where there was not even a farm house, and bushes as far as she could see ahead overhung the narrow dirt road. At this point the young man stopped the car and began to force un- welcome attentions upon the girl. Screams and pleas for mercy were of no avail. The young desperado paid no attention to her outcries except to grab her throat and squeeze it so hard that she thought she was being strangled to death. Luckily at this point the girl got one of her arms free that had been pinioned over her head. With her free hand she reached into her pocket and pulled out a pistol. Just before she left home she had gone to her father’s bureau drawer and after looking at the weapon for a long time decided that it would do no harm to take it along and though she had never shot a gun there might come a time when it would come in handy. But she had really never expected to actually have to use it. metab mG al is vit c Pt Berke Ni ret terra oN NW + The taste for oute door life which girls get in fF erly chaperor camps is belie to have started th craze for “hiking” cad which has assumed ; such alarming pro- portions. ~ “eh Although her fingers were almost too weak a to hold the gun, the bluff worked all right and the young man who had been so violent ; a few mirutes before was as submissive as though he was in the custody of a squad of policemen. Sullenly he turned his car around .and drove back to town, but when he reached the outskirts of the city he did the most cowardly thing that a young fellow ever did. 4 He drove the young hiker right to the police station and charged her with assaulting him. When the police found that the girl had’a revol¥er and that she had come all the way from Texas alone, they were suspicious.

S. - merchant and manufacturer has literally ‘‘followed the fvall’’ all his life. He tells how he started in puseball when the game was in its infancy and how he had a hand in introducing golf to Americans. Long before gloves were permitted on a baseball diamond, in the days /when players used-cold water and iodine to/toughen their hands, George Wright had made a brilliant It has also been his pleasure to watch the progress of golf, both as a player and observer. Some of the people who crowded around to stare into the store window thought the queer-looking contraptions displayed there were a new kind of walking stick. And ina way they were that. At least they have since persuaded into taking long walks many men and women who never had considered them before or imagined them coming under the head of sport. The sticks were golf clubs. They aroused the curiosity of the passerby, which was the most the ewner of the store hoped for when he imported the exhibit But it had an eyen more gratifying effect on one of the specta- tors.

But it was an opportunity which required a consid- erable amount of ingenuity before it could. be made use of. For in those.days it was a re- grettable fact that no golf course existed anywhere in the neihborhood of Boston. “But I'll make a place to play golf,’’ Mr. Wright offered. He forthwith obtained a book of rules and looked up the strange game. Then with a few friends and some home-made pins and flags, he descended upon the park grounds called Franklin field and commenced to lay out a course. But people had not yet learned that only the weather and severe emergencies may in- terrupt golfers with impunity. A blue- coated figure intruded on the scene. ‘What do you think you're doing?’’ in- quired the Irish policeman, for, as already remarked, the scene is laid in Boston. “We're getting ready to play some golf,” Mr. Wright answered: “Golf!’’ echoed the What’s that?” Mr. Wright tried to explain. ‘‘Whatever it is,”’ the arm of the law finally ruled at the conclusion of the hearing, ‘‘you’ll have to. go get a permit to play it.” The permit was obtained by application at the city hall; the function has since been taken over to some extent by wives of golfers —and the course Was laid out and golf duly played.

I told you in an ear- lier story of this series. Hogg was a Scottish peasant of literary tastes, and was also a crony of Sir Walter Scott. His foremost sheep dog was a collie named Sirrah, a sullen and savage brute, but en- dowed with almost miraculous brains for his own difficult line of work. In those days it was no sinecure to drive and guard sheep on the often trackless Scot- tish mountains and dales. Sirrah rare genius for such tasks. The first of his recorded exploits was per- formed at a time when 700 _ half-grown lambs were in a mountain fold, guarded by At midnight the 700 took for some unknown reason. As a matter of fact, nobody seems to know the reason why sheep do most things, or whether, indeed. they have sense enough to reason out anything. They will stam- pede without apparent cause. They will follow one of their silly breth- fright ren over a precipice or into a fast-running . river. They are hard to manage, and they can destroy the best temper any shepherd ever had. Well, these 700 lambs stampeded. They burst their way out of the flimsy sheepfold and they scatter®d in everv direction. Across the hills they galloped, lost to sight in the dense darkness, and impossible for Hogg to find or to follow. Hogg gave a shout to his sullen collie, Sir- rah.

Sirrah was geting along in years. Hogg had the old dog’s ¢.-a, Hector, for a successor to him. : So, very thriftily; he consented ‘to sell the | faithful Sirrah to a neighboring farmer. The price was three guineas—a little more than $15 in our money. Sirrah was well content to go to the new home. Often he had been sent by his master to some farm to do a day’s work with the sheep. He supposed this was such a time. But, in a few days, he realized that he had been deserted by the master he loved, aud that he was now the property of a stranger. The old dog went on strike. Never again, so long as he lived, would he do one lick of work. When he was sent our to herd sheep he would dash into the flock and scatter the foolish .beasts in a panic. When he was rebuked for this mischief, he would go and do thevsdme thing again. He would not wofk and he would not obey. Luckily, the new owfier was a less practical and more humane man than Hogg. For the sake of what the old dog had once been, he gave Sirrah a comfortable home for the rest AP over to the farm to . tia . ly i ss a te Vive - ag C oe oh : ak in BS ce See ee Pe ee i : : H oe tad 2 kl ee 7 TA od Pee Oe i oe — (peer ¢* chat with the man he had sold Sirrah to. At such times Sirrah would catch his scent and run far out on the road to meet him. But the dog refused to go back to Hogeg’s farm after the way he had been sold from it. Nor did the sale profit Hogg anything... He had sold. Sirrah as a trained sheepherder. The dog refused to herd sheep. So Hogg never got a penny of*the agreed purchase price for him. He had lost a great collie and he had gained nothing in return. I am rather glad of that, aren't you? Like Hector, his son, Sirrah had a queer ‘love for music and a craving to join in every song he heard. Unluckily his skill asa musician did not equal his zest. As usual, in the highlands, he was taken to church on Sundays by his master. Up there, you will find hundreds of collies who accompany the shepherds to church. Hogg, in a letter, thus describes the reason why poptiar request made him stop taking Sirrah to divine service: — ‘‘Many a good song, psalm or tune was he the cause of spoiling. For when he fairly set to (at which,he was not slack) the voices of all had no chance with his. The moment the psalm was raised, he joined with all his zeal, and at such a rate that he drowned the voices of the others, before the lines could be sung.” ny Bk oe » (Copyright, 1926. |The McNaught’ , y my A eRe a .

DEAD. Orara BY iW BROWNELL Give the Birds a Bath. Birds are a neat people. Most of them desire to bathe frequently and thoroughly. I havé a sparrow hawk who, while he does not bathe daily, makes a thorough job of it when he does bathe. He is ready for that bath every third day, as a rule. Robins are among our greatest bathers. The curious thing about it is that they frequently come to bathe just before retiring for the night. I have watched them take a thorough bath on a dark, gloomy, cold afternoon, when there wasn’t a chance for them to dry off before retiring. Provide a bath in your yard for the birds. In these heated days it is as necessary that our feathered friends should have water avail- able as it is in winter that they should find food available. The size or shape of the vessel matters little, but it should be shal- low, so that birds may stand in it. Prefer- ably the baths should slope toward the cen- ter, giving the birds a chance to wade in, but this is not necessary. Beaver in Southern New England. It was my privilege recently to visit two adjoining beaver ponds in Connecticut and to photograph a beaver house. So far us I am aware, these are the only beavers now existing in southern New England. These animals have been located in this situation for a number of years, hut the outlaw trapper has kept them from incteasing. In this connection it is interesting to note that in the early days the beaver skin was the unit of trade. In the year 1703 the gen- eral court of Massachusetts approyed a price list for trade with the Indians. Thus one beaver skin-in season would buy two pints of powder, or one pint of shot, or ten pounds 8, Or one shirt without ruffles. A shirt. with ruffles was priced at two beaver skins. In the matter of exchange for furs and skins it is to be noted that one moosehide was valued:.at two beavers. Apparently moose were numerous in southern New Eng- land in those days, for the value of the moosehide was comparatively little. Two ‘“‘woodchocks” were valued at one: beaver, but it took four martens, or eight minks, to be of equal value, Today the skin of Johnny Chuck is: worthless, while the marten and the ‘mink.are among our high-priced furs. The marten and the mink have retreated before the advance of civilization, particu- larly the former. The woodchuck, on the other hand, has taken kindly to civilization. In cutting ,away the forest man has dé- stroyed the habitat of the marten, but the woodchuck has been provided with the open country, which he ‘loves. -So the one has de- creased and the other has increased. That limpse of the beaver ponds in sotithern New ngland brought home to me rather forcibly | which have taken place — eeping changes in wild life in a comparatively short time. the swe = aa Praag a -, ntly there appeared in the illustrated _ s of the Sunc¢ Rewspapers the pic- lowers = = OWING EYE?

CATBIRD INA HORNE - MADE BATH PHoTo BY woe FKFisSHER_ 4 ROOTS oS if the writer of the caption beneath that pie- ture had taken the trouble-to look up the meaning of the word ‘“‘fang’’ he never would have fallen into such a ridiculous error. What appeared in the picture was the tongue of the snake. The tongue isn’t a fang, nor is it a stinger, as it is still more commonly called. I find, however, that a majority of persons seem so to regard it. They express the ut- most gurprise when informed that it is merely the reptile’s tongue and wholly harmless. Al- most the first question is, ‘“‘What does he run it Out at us for, then?” That tongue is a sensitive organ. It is supposed to be exceedingly sensitive to vibra- tions, and through it the snake learns much of what is going on about him. He has no external ears. That constant darting out of the tongue is not to intimidate, but to gain information for its owner. Speaking of snakes, here is a story from a railroad man: “Our freight “had been side- tracked, so I climbed up the bank for a nap in the shade of some trees while we wuited. T awoke with a feeling of weight on my arm. Looking down, I saw a snake apparently asleep, coiled around my wrist. For 2 mo- ment I was paralyzed. Then I acted quicklr. Dropping my arm caused the snake to slin off as a bracelet would. Evidently he was a fast worker, too, for instantly he began to rattle. He seemed as much surprised to see me as I was to see’him. I didn’t stay to get acquainted, but ran down to my engine, se- cured the coal maul, hurried back and made short work*of him. He measured 5 feet and some inches and had nine rattles.”’ The Original Periscope, The eye of the submarine is ‘the periscope. It was not until the invention of this that the underwater boat becamé a success. But if a man had stopped to consider his humble neighbor, the frog, that invention might not have been so long delayed. The frog is a dweller in two elements. He ig equally at home in the water and on the land. Now a frog possesses bulging eyes. They stand above his head. They are big and goggiy. Obviously when frogeie is swimming fast be- neath the water the pressure against such big eyes would be most uncomfortaljs, There — is mo such pressure.

Then he pops up his twin periscopes, or eyes, to look around, lowers them again and xzoes on. This is exactly what the submarine does with its periscope. ' A Fakir Who Holds His Own. Recently Unc’ Billy Possum was caught Within less than a half-mile of my home in Massachusetts. This was rather far north for the Virginia opossum to be éstablished. There is, of course, no means of knowing whether this individual had escaped froin captivity, or whether it had worked its way north to the scene of its undoing. But the incident served to call attention to the fact that here is an animal rated low in the scale of animal intelligence, persistently hunted throughout its range, which, nevertheless. has held its own far better than other ani- mals apparently much better equipped. The possum is the master fakir. To appreciate this you must see him pretend death. It is uncanny. : \ ———— Naturalist’s Question Box. Mildred Bellis, of Joplin, Mo., has seen a small bird of brilliant electric blue and tail feathers of a dull black. She wants to know what it is. oe \ That is a very indefinite description. I think the chances are that it is the indigo bunting. ‘“T am greatly troubled by ladybugs, both in my garden and in my house, and want to know something about them,”’ writes Mrs. C. O. Childs. : No one has occasion to be troubled by ladybugs. Rather, their presence should be a matter of rejoicing. All ladybugs are predatory on small insects and the eggs of the larger species. The larvae. of the lady- bug is likewise predatory. As a rule, these insects on which they prey are injurious to plant growth, and therefore the ladybug is an able assistant, in the control of pests. , “How much truth is there in the stories we so Often read of wolf packs?” asks Mrs. James Eaton. + Very little, so far as American wolves are concerned.

The first white men who sailed on its placid waters were amazed to see the Indian mothers take their babies to the Potomac river bank on. cold winter morn- ings and dip them in to make them hardy. “After the Indians came the colonial set- tlers, who became known as the ‘Barons of the Potomac.’ “The Potomac was the great highway, and Sailing vessels from England, with cargoes of supplies, frequently appeared. On the voy- age home they took the good Virginia tobac- co, which had a real market value then.” “It would have been worth more if women had smoked, too, in those days,’ I put in. “Perhaps,.’' agreed the old man. ‘‘Some- 9 how or other a woman and a cigarette never : . habitant quickly. * = t “merce. .fome nevea seeds out of Brazil, seemed properly mated to me. old fashioned.’ “Indeed you are not,’’ I reassured him, ‘‘I feel much the same way about it myself.’’ Hundreds of automobiles were passing as we stood there. “I suppose the old Point never saw so many visitors before,’’ I com- Perhaps I am -,mented. ‘Indeed it has,’ returned the Oldest In- “The entire city of Wash- oo ~ ington turned out one spring day in 1801 and flocked to the Point to witness the arrival of sloops containing government records and employes en route from Philadelphia when the Capital of the nation was moved from the Quaker City to its new location on the Potomac.” “There's a Point,”’ boy swimming I pointed out. “He will not go far,’ predicted the old man. ‘‘Yet some distinguished men have en- jo¥ed swimming in the Potomac.

They planned a swim in midstream, and took off their clothes in the boat. Some- how it turned over and all their garments were lost. The steward fortunately had kept enough on for him to return to the White lfouse and get clothes for the President and his son while they waited in the bushes, bit- ten by gnats and mosquitoes. The President wrote in his diary that night that it was a ‘humiliating lesson.’ ”’ I laughed, and the old man seemed pleased at my enjoyment of his story. “The early residents of Washington loved the Potomac,’’ asserted the Oldest Inhabitant. “They considered the river important to the infant city, and many stately homes were built facing it. Robert Morris tried to in- across the terest its citizens in a 3-mile street-along the _ waterfront. That idea has now blossomed in the beautiful speedway, from which the Po- tomac can be seen to splendid advantage.’”’ “Is there any truth in the story,”’ I ven- tured, ‘‘that George Washington once threw a dollar across the Potomac?” “Well, if he did, a dollar could go much farther than it can now,’’ was the quick and clever answer. “Seriously speaking, if they mean the Po- tomac at Wakefield, where Washington was born and where he spent his early boyhood, I doubt if-he could have accomplished the feat. Walter Johnson should try to repeat it and settle this disputed question for all time.’’ | THE RUBBER INDUSTRY a Venezuela possesses gréat rubber forests. This vast territory adjacent to Brazil, con- tiguous to the Rios Negro, Cassiquiare and the upper Orinoco, produces considerable Hevea rubber, which comes down the Orinoco to Ciudad Bolivar, and sometimes down the Rio Negro to Manos.

Here’s a little dress in green flat crepe— the new green, dark, but with more life in it than the greens we wore last autumn. With her dress, the slim wearer has chosen a felt hat in the same tone, banded in a darker shade of green. Her shoes are in a combination of black kid and black suede. But the unusualness of the dress lies in its scallops. Scallops on the sleeves, scal- lops on the peplum that deceives everybody —yourself included, we venture to say— into thinking it part of a two-piece dress. As to how the scallops are to be finished —that, my dear, is entirely a matter of in- dustry. The woman who doesn’t love work will have them picoted, as per the top de- tail sketch. The woman who doesn’t mind work at all will bind them, as shown in the second line. But the woman who is neither lazy nor a fiend for punishment will prob- ably face them, cutting a piece just like the space between the line of dashes and the .final line of scallops. This is appliqued on the right side, basted, and then machine-stitch- ed and turned over. Be careful not only to cut the seams closely, but to snip the cor- ners.

Every woman owes it to herself to have a time of rest and quiet each day. It is these regular periods of relaxation that restore her energy and beauty. I often think that a woman can get more benefit out of a short, definitely limited time for rest and relaxation than for having the whole day for leisure. Because an entire day——or even a period of several hours with nothing especial to do therein—most often turns out to be a time of wasted energy with very little accomplished, either in the way of actual rest or actual work. The business girl—or the busy . woman whose chief business is concerned with her house and her family—can take comfort in this fact. Even if she has but twenty min- utes or half an hour that she ¢an really call her own, she can make a truly creative period for rest and beauty. Preferably she should take this rest at the end of the afternoon or just before get- ting into something clean and fresh for din- ner. It,isn’t a good idea to lie down directly after lunch, for example, as that makes a person feel stuffy and drowsy for the rest of the day. (Those with: any tendency to be stout should beware of naps after meals.) Suppose you have put in a good eight hours at the office—-or you’ve spent the afternoon doing some rather wearisome shopping. You come home tired, in no spirit for being either useful or entertaining. Perhaps you have to keep an eveuing engagez:ent, and you want to look your best for some especial reason. First of all, don’t waste time on small, un- necessary things as soon as you get'in. Don’t sit around in your street clothes, with ‘grimy make-up still on your face. Undress immedi- ately, have your bath, if you ‘intend taling one at that time of day, and insist upon being. left absolutely alone. Remove every particle | = ever, a face bath in an invigorating tonic will be as soothing as anything. If the feet feel hot and tired, bathe them well, finishing with plenty of very cold water, and dry them carefully. Then, apply a little witch-hazel or rubbing alcohol and dust light- ly with talcum powder. Or, if you prefer, massage the feet with a greaseless cream, paying particular attention to the soles of the feet and to the toes. Do not spend too long a time on these pre- liminaries, for you must have at least a few minutes of absolite quiet and relaxation. It is best to lie down in a darkened but well- . ventilated: room. Don't let any one come in to talk to or “amuse”? you. And try to ban- -ish any persistent thoughts or cares. Here is a: suggestion for resting the eyes , and giving new life and expression to the whole face. Put on a table, within easy reach of your bed or couch, a bowl with a little cracked ice in it. Pour over the’ice some astringent liquid, or, in this particular case, witch-hazel will do. Now, take a strip of clean gauze, or an old, soft linen handker- chief, wet it in the astringent and leave it on the ice for a few minutes. Have two of these cloths, so that one can be_left to -cool while the other is in use. While you are ‘lying down, take one of the cloths, press out any surplus moisture (without, hoWweyer, squeezing it dry), and lay it on the eyes and forehead. Renew the cloth as soon as it feels warm. After rising, wash the eyes well with cold water and then,see how clear and rested they look. Putting on a different frock (even though you don't habitually ‘dress’ for dinner), will have much to do with sustaining your _ refreshed feeling. See that your finger-nails e. ge and cosmetics from your-face ani) k, comb your hair back, ~ slip. td a eros meme SS ro ae you mish sis Srephration har rm are clean; and smooth your hands with a pleasant lotion. « A little toilet water applied on neck and forehead is another help. Finally, put away all thoughts of daytime routine, whether it is of home or businegs,. and try to approach the evening with a fresh point of view. You’ will find that this plan works beautifully and shows gratifying re- sults not orfly in your pwn physical and men- tal feelings, but in the pleasure that: you will Bike to your family and friends. a te So ae Lee c A * * Bs cat ve ery their trail. They sold anything that didn’t absolutely belong to the government, and sometimes sold even government property— to the innocent and the unwary. The high art of selling in this fashion comes out of the ages. It has been going on around Washington for some time, and probably will continue so long ag there are natural buyers in the market; for it amounts almost to an axiom that some people will buy anything with a price on it. Not so long ago a man in the grandstand at Laurel sold one of the favorites of the day to his neighbor on the right, a man who had attended the races for the first time in his life. He ‘ked the way. a horse per- formed, thoug.. it ran only second; for he had a bet on it to “place.”” The man on his left, however, had played the pony on the nose and _ lost. Therefore, he grumbled. “That blankety blank nag,’ he said, ‘I’m through with it.’’ “What d’y’e mean, are you gonna sell it?’’ asked the winner, excitedly. “Sell it? Shucks, I’d give it away,” sponded the loser. “You wouldn't exactly do that,’’ said the prospective purchaser. ‘I know you wouldn't, so I'll tell you what I’ll do——-~-”’ The sale was consummated under the grandstands, and the thoroughbred turned over to the visiting brother for the small sum of $300—-a sacrifice sale on the part of the pseudo owner. Ordinarily he would have asked $1,000, or $2,000; but this day he was disgusted at the poor performance of the horse. So they fall. Half the time the victims themselves inspire the idea back of the sale. This was the case of the drunk in the taxicab who went for a ride and afterward com- plained of the huge bill. He had kept the cab a good part of the night, driving out in the country, stopping at‘places in search of liquid refreshment. When presented with a bill for $26.00 he murmured, ‘‘What’re you tryin’ to do, sell me the cab?”’ The driver had an idea. ‘Well, he said, ‘‘you could get it for just a little more than that. I’m tired of running it, and if you want it ry ‘How much’ll you take for it?’’ “How much’ll you give?” The drunk counted his money. got $75:00 left,’’ he said. “The cab is yours,’’ confided the driver, and took the cash. There is, as the saying goes, every minute. ¢ re- “T’ve only one born HE get-rich-quick ambition prompts many of the phoney sales. A man journeys to Niagara Falls, sees the money made by the guides showing visitors about, through the Cave of the Winds, and under the falls, and is easily led into ‘tetiptation by a glib- tongued talker who professes to be one of the owners of the falls. Soit is that Niagara Falls has been sold many times in the past decade oF so. Though it is one of the finest real estate properties in Washington, the White House, so far as records go, has yet to be sold. The wonder is it hasn't been turned over by the crook real estate men many times; Tor 80 many visitors are always standing there in front of the gates, or peering through the fence railings, looking at the grandeur of the house and grounds. There is a good talking point in its favor, too, as an invest- ment. Only once since it was built has it been vacant—-and then its occupants moved only ‘so that repairs could be made. The lease is for four years, with the privilege of renewal; and most all the tenants are willing to sign the contract again. So that, by and large, the White House, as an investment for some out-of-town man looking for a Washington rental property out of the ordinary, makes rather a neat prospect. All, of course, would like to own the Treas- ury; but salesmen have difficulty here be- cause of the price that must be asked. Where there is so much money involved it is always difficult to find a purchaser. They do better with oil stations. An attendant at an oll station, while filling the tank of an out-of- town car not long ago, remarked that he was getting tired of the grind. There were sey- eral cars waiting for service. The man at the wheel of the visiting car said, “Looks like a good paying business, too.”’ “It is,’ said the attendant, “but, what I need more.than anything else is a rest.’’ “Thinking about selling?’”’ asked the driver. “That all depends,”’ seeing his opportunity. “If I got my price I wouldn’t mind letting go; but nobody wants to pay what a business is worth these days. They are all looking for bargains; something for nothing.”’ ¢ The driver of the car was interested. His tank filled, he drove to one side of the en- trance-way and waited for business to slack- en. Half an hour later he parted with $300 as first payment on the oil station—one be- longing to a national firm. The attendant donned his hat and coat, sauntered down the street, out of reach of the police. So it goes. American salesmen, they say, are capable of selling anything when the right party comes along; and, as Barnum once remarked, “There is one born every minute.’’ Some day, some one may be able to sell the tev ni said the attendant, | WILL OUR NATION DIE IN A GOLDEN CUP?

At all events, that is what Marianna did, and with very good effect, too. a IDSUMMER afternoon. Blatant, unadulterated sunshine. The stillness of record-breaking heat. Most of the attractive suburban homes: that. bordered the long, curving hill down to the village slumbered back of awnings or boarded-up windows. who was anybody in Stilton was lowered Nobody abroad. Marianna Hilyard had chosen this hour for that very reason, but shewhad not calcu- jated upon the intense heat. She stopped now on the last curve of the hill to wipe away the perspiration that trickled down her small but defiant nose and to lift her hat from her burning forehead. “Symmetrically burdened like a pack mule,” she thought bitterly, as she set the two huge paper-bag carriers down upon the sidewalk. The clerk at the Cash and Carry Market had insisted that two bags were much easier to carry than one, but now she questioned his sanity. One of the station taxis passed her and slowed down inquiringly. She shook her head. No. If she were going to do this thing she was going to do it right. What was the use of trudging down into the village to market to save 50 cents if you spent half of it riding home in a taxi? A girl with a bag of golf sticks beside her in a low scarlet roadster sped by. That was Naomi Lardner, from the Spanish house acrdéss the railroad. Little did she have to worry about things like markets! Some- thing in the gay little car with its top folded back, the yellow crepe sport dress and the tilt of the close-fitting yellow felt fanned to a flame Marianna’s martyrdom, which had died to embers in the delight of picking out the fresh vegetables and fruits in the glaring blue market. Of course, she would not want all of Naomi It was much more fun living without a maid and planning your own furnishings instead of hiring a decora- tor, as Miss Lardner had had to do. Buf one could not help breaking out once in a while, and Ran need not have been so excited that morning over the.bills for her most recent extravagance. A man in Ran Hilyard’s posi- tion simply had to have a Tuxedo, and her evening dress had been a remarkable bargain in spite of the price. Rannie had said those two bills would put a crimp in his bank ac- count for months. Of course, it was breath- less, like driving along the edge of a preci- pice, living so close to one’s income; she had to admit that. But, as she had pointed out to Rannie in the heat of their discussion, every one had to take a risk to get anywhere. Hadn’t they taken a whopping big risk only last month, when they moved out, to the lit- tle cottage at the foot of the long hill? They should look upon,.the suit and the evening dress as investiaénts, just like the house. And how could. they have gone to the Harri- son dinner without’the right clothes? The moths, had ruimed Ran’s tux, and her three evening dresses were limp from wear. They would have been turning their backs upon Opportunity and Advancement had _ they stayed at home. But Rannie had not been able to see this—or would not. “‘Might as well have worn our golf clothes for all G. G. noticed us!’’ he had said, as for the first time in their married life together he had gone out without kissing her good- by, slamming the door behind him. Marianna shifted her heavy bags again. Around the curve down at the foot of the hil] appeared her own white-paling fence at last. The sight of it was like a drop of cool water on her parched tongue. The gate in view, she felt better, but she picked up again the thread of the argument she had _. been rehearsing. “Of course, Randolph Hilyard, if you want your wife to climb that impossible hill right past your employer’s front door, in all sorts of weather, lugging. vegetables like a green grocer to save a paltry dollar a week, she can do it. She can also give up the bridge club she joined last week. She can do all the laundry, even your dress shirts. And maybe in a few years’ time we will have saved a few hundred dollars.. But every one in Stilton -will refer to us as those poor, drudging bee. ee she stowed them away in the dis- - gbled bag. . rn Hilyards———’ Marianna’s imaginary argument snapped suddenly, for just here a figure emerged from the Hafrison house and came down the long, curved drive. The appearance of the portly, panama-hatted gentleman gave her a sicken- ing feeling of alarm, for she realized that it must be G. G.~Harrison himself, the head of the large advertising firm that employed her husband. She had not counted upon her martyrdom including such agonies as an en- counter like this. She had understood the house was closed and the whole Harrison family at Bar Harbor. Still, it looked so much like him that she hesitated, then de- cided to pass on with head high and trust to luck they would not meet. To think that’ after moving to Stilton almost purposely—though Ran would not ad- mit it—in the hope that Mr. Harrison would notice them.and give her husband the oppor- tunity he desired, after bankrupting them- selves for evening clothes for his dinner to make an impression that apparently had never been made, to think that she should bump into the impeceably dressed G. G. with two bursting bags of Cash and Carry groc- eries in her hands! esr Marianna came on, her lips compressed, but otherwise showing no- signs of her dis- turbance. Out of the corner of her eye spe could see that G. G. apparently had not seen her. He had stopped, seemed to be delib- erating. She might pass by safely. Then the terrible, the. epoch-making thing happened. Exactly at the entrance in the stone wall, as if Atropos, the sister Fate who holds the shears, lvad reached out and mischievously snipped the handle of one of the paper carriers, the bag ripped with the strain, and lemons, to- matoes, peppers and onions went rolling past .. the feet of the great G. G. -. There was nothing to do now but face the music. For an exciting minute Marianna and her husband’s boss were wildly scpambling for the truant vegetables. She tried to thank Feging _. . #That’s always the way, isn’t it? : - ther few minutes I would have been safely. In an- a pt home.’’.

Mr. Harrison retrieved another onion, and Marianna stuffed it into a cranny in her bag. “Just down at the foot of the hill,’” she answered. “You must let me help you, really. You can’t manage both those bags now, Mrs.—er + te ~ “Hilyard,”’ supplied Marianna. ‘“‘But please don’t bother, Mr. Harrison! Oh goodness, there’s my fish!’’ and she pointed to a bundle in the driveway. Mr. Harrison handed it to her very gallantly and picked up the bags, carrying one in his arms. Marianna sup- pressed a wild desire to giggle as the fas- tidious G. G. swung off down the hill as though cash-and-carry bags were his specialty and marketing damsels in distress the most natural thing in the world to meet on a sultry afternoon. “T thought you and Mrs. Harrison were at Bar Harbor,’ Marianna made conversation with a sidelong glance at her deliverer. “Came back on business. Haven’t I met vou before somewhere, young lady?’”’ “My husband works for your firm; he’s a copywriter, Randolph Hilyard,’’ Marianna an- swered demurely. “We've just moved into the whfte cottage there a few weeks ago. We were at your dinner party last month.” “Oh, yes,”’ vaguely. Then, as though try- ing to make up for not recognizing her, he said jocosely as he pushed open the gate and passed her the bags, “‘And what are you going to make out of all these things for Friend Husband tonight? “Chowder. Fish chowder. Rannie loves it. I know it’s a hot day for chowder, but I haven’t given him any for such a long time. When I saw the nice fresh fish at the market —" Marianna bit her lip, ashamed of her enthusiasm. “Fish chowder, eh? And I make it with tomatoes?” “I should say not. I’m from Massachusetts. I make it with salt pork and milk, just as my Uncle Beebe taught me to when I was a little girl holidaying with him down on Cape Cod. Why, it’s the only way to make a chowder!” “TIT should say it is. My mother always made hers that way. Whenever I think of fish chowder———’’ he closed his eyes and sniffed. Marianna could have sworn that he licked: his lips—the correct Mr. G. G.! “It brings back all sorts of memories. I wish I were going to sit down at your dinner table tonight!’’ “But why tan’t you? Oh, Mr. Harrison, if vou could!’’ Marianna’s star was rising. She suppose you forgot the humiliation of the heavy bags, her ° tired feet, the trickling perspiration. ‘‘We— Rannie and I-——would just love to have you!” Had she been too quick, too presuming? “Well, I told them at the office I’d be in this afternoon. I just ran out here on the train to get some papers. But——fish chowder, Cape Cod style! You tempt me too much, Mrs. Hilyard. I’m afraid I’m going to accept and let the office go hang.”’ Marianna, outwardly the poised, graceful hostess, settled her distinguished guest with the evening paper in the little retreat under the two maples out beside the garage. It was cool, moist, quiet. But within she was purring like a delighted kitten as she went back to the house. She chuckled and burst into delicious little puffs of laughter as she pre- pared the chowder. She had forgotten all about the quarrel. Opportunity had come at last. pe By When the chowder was simmering on the stove, she hurriedly bathed and dressed. Something told her to put on the simplest thing she possessed. The green lace had not registered; perhaps this plain pink voile would. You never can tell about men. She spread the table on the back porch. It had been shaded all afternooon and was now giving a sensation of heavenly coolness. She placed her guest’s plate so he would face their poplars and the new bird bath and her bed of summer phlox. She decided against the lace cloth Aunt Patty had brought from Venice and put on their favorite green linen. She was glad she had laundered it that day., Their white ivory ware always looked so enticing upon it. “The chowder is cooking and promises to be extra nice,’ she told Mr. Harrison as. she joined him under the trees with her basket of darning. ‘“‘There isn’t an ingredient miss- ing.”’ : Mr. Harrison: filled his eves for a moment with the slim pink figure in the low wicker chair, then eyed the house and his surround- ings with the frankness of a man who has everything. “Cozy little place you and Hilyard have here! That’s the way to begin. Start small, take it easy, don’t overburden your- self.’’ Marianna was secretly glad now that he had not seen the gorgeous lace gown. “And it’s great sport, too,’’ the older man wenton. ‘Gad, I wish I had it to do all over again!’’ He sighed and asked for permission to smoke. To Marianna’s astonishment he took out a blackened pipe from his pocket and lighted it with luxurious content. Then, stretching out in his chair, he indulged in a series of reminiscent pictures brought on by the smell of the chowder and the picture of cool domesticity that the back of the cottage with its clothes drier and garden tools presented from this angle. ‘Yes, siree, the happiest years of my life were those I spent with Mrs. Harrison over the little printing shop out in Michigan. We had just been married and I had just bought the town newspaper. We lived over the shop to save money. I remember one dav she came to me saying, ‘George, I can’t smell a thing in this place but ink. We've got to get away from it and move into a real house!’ Well, I just calmed her down and said———.”’ But what Mr. Harrison said to Mrs. Har- rison at that epochal moment never reached Marianna’s ears. She had heard the whistle of the 5:55. “Ran will be here in six minutes, Mr. Har- rison, so if you’ll excuse me I'll get things on the table. It’s so hot it will take ages before the chowder is cool enough to eat.’’ Wouldn’t Rannie be. surprised when she told him who was waiting out under the trees? She laughed happily as she set the covered tureen upon the table, brought the frosted dish of cress and radishes from the refrigerator, served the hard, round: butter balls. She stood back to get the effect of her dinner table. It was lovely. Then she ran to the gate to await Rannie’s kiss. The strag- glers from the 5:55 were passing. She called out cheery good-evenings. One neighbor called back: “I don’t think your husband was on that train. I didn’t see him.”’ She waited. The last commuters had passed several min- utes before she returned to her guest under the trees. “Rannie didn’t come! I can’t imagine what the trouble is.. He always phones when he is delayed.’ She did not add* what was going through her mind with sickening sharp- ness, the remembrance that Rannie and she had quarreled that morning and that. per- haps he would not come home for, dinner at all. “We'd better go ahead:and have our din- ner,’’ she told Mr. Harrison, trying to be > The portraits and other free-hand decora- tions on the government notes are the work of the finest artists in the country. Few, in- deed, are the men who can turn out equally fine engravings. Different vignettes on the same bill are the work of different men, each a master in his line. The counterfeiter thus finds on every note several types of engraving and he must be an exceptional artist to be able to duplicate them all. In general, it has been found that landscape scenes are more’ susceptible of imitation than some of the other types of vignettes. Accordingly, a note never bears a landscape alone. With it will always be found a portrait, historical scene, allegorical interpretation or some other type of engraving. ‘ There are artists outside those in the gov- ernment employ who can perform the same class of work with the same degree of excel- lence. However, they are assured such a large financial return through honest en- deavor that there is no motive for them to turn criminal. Furthermore, their ranks are so limited that when a particularly well ex- ecuted note appears in circulation, the re- sponsibility can be fixed within narrow lim- its. By watching the few men who might turn out work of that grade, the secret serv- ice operatives are never long in locating the guilty party or parties. When the work is tbat of a foreigner, the task is harder. Some skilled engravers have come info this country and set up counterfeit plants which baffled detection for a time. Such a one was Albert Leon, who eluded-the government men for. two years. Leon was a Russian refugee. In his native land he had made counterfeit paper rubles for the Nihil- ists. It was only natural that he should turn to spurious money making in the United States: J ) | One year the Pacific Northwest began to show an alarming increase of counterfeit $10 notes. Operatives searched high and low for the source, but at first they got no results. Whoever was doing the counterfeiting was an expert engraver and his plant was very cleverly concealed. The bogus ‘notes \were examined for some clue. They were printed on a high-grade bond paper of which/two sheets were pas carefully together to ob- : . SP ps Bs. - ‘ a : sa _ TRICKS OF COUNTERFEITERS | There was nothing particularly unusual im this, but the silk threads on examination de- veloped a startling peculiarity. Under the microscope it could be seen that they were not silk at all. They were the short, reddish hairs of some wild animal, or perhaps a dog! *‘Malemutes,’’ said the detectives, at a guess. “‘Let’s start working north. The fellow may have been snowed in for the winter and couldn’t get silk threads.’’ ; The steps by which the counterfeiters were run down are too long to detail, but the guess proved correct. They ran the gang to .earth on Nootka island, an isolated piece of land near Vancouver, British Columbia. Al- bert Leon was the chief crook. Just as the operatives had suspected, in purchasing sup- plies before the annual freeze up, Leon had forgotten to include silk thread. The hairs of his dog betrayed him.—From Everybody's Magazine for August. An Odd Fire Escape. Devices for human safety always have been favorites with inventors. Back in the '1870s, when buildings were growing taller, ingenious minds turned freely to the inven- tion of new-fangled fire escapes. One of the oddest of these, says Popular , Science Monthly for September, was in the form of a parachute attached to a headgear worn by the escaper. With this, declared the inventor, ‘‘a person may safely jump out of a burning building from any height, and land, without injury and without the least danger, on the ground.’’ To make doubly sure of such a landing he further: provided overshoes with thick rubber soles ‘‘to take. up the concussion with the ground.”’ New Automobile Folds Up. Closed or open—which shall the new car be? For most of us with one-car incomes it’s a vexing question, but now, says Popular Science Monthly, John K.

Hence, the jeweler’s trade is about the oldest of all. kd Imhoff, a wholesale jeweler, of Chicago, claims that artisans in his trade must be al- ways on the alert because styles in jewelry change as regularly and rapidly as fashions in women’s clothing. “In the old days,’’ says Mr. Imhoff, ‘‘before the wrist watch made its advent, women wore watches attached to long gold chains that wound round their necks and hung low-— sometimes to their’ waistlines. Gradually, chains became shorter. Then, they disap- peared all together. The only place you can now find one of these relics of a by-gone day is in somebody's treasure trove of heirlooms.’ Mr. Imhoff cited the many changes in jewelry that have taken place within the past decade or so. For instance, the old-fashioned earring has gone out of style. There was a time when milady had holes punched in her ears. In fact, piercing of the ears was quite the thing in the olden days, and girls as soon: as they reached their teens had needles sent through the lobes of their ears to make way for earrings. Nowadays, ear- rings are held on by means of screws, and while this method is not altogether satisfac- tory, sometimes causing severe pain, if the screws are pressed together too hard, and causing the loss of the earring if they are too loose, still this is what women want. ‘And what they want they get,’’ remarks Mr. Imhoff, who holds that were it not for women the jewelry business would be hard pressed. at times; for men go in only for the bare necesearies, so far as their personal jewelry needs are concerned. They want watches and fobs, afd an occasional ring or two, although men as a rule disdain the wearing of rings—- and they may go so far as gold pencils and pens. However, the jewelry wants of men usually center around a gold watch and chain; few if any trinkets. Since stick pons sort of went out of fashion, few men wearing them any , the only other badge adorn- ment on” : is found usually in a» ‘the jewelry trade. the coat | alll i a other In all kingdoms, species go in for high men and women of civilization, women are the branch of ‘the human family that get all.the attention in this direction. Therefore, the jewelry trade caters mostly to women. Fads come and go, and help to keep business humming over what would be disappointing periods; but the regu- lar day in and day out trade among jewelers would still hold good if it served only those swain who buy for their lady loves, says Mr. Imhoff. Just when a new fad will come along no one can tell; but one is apt to be started any day and in any way. Some years back the college boys started the fad of making up bracelets for their girl friends, each boy con- tributing a little silver or gold piece to be joined with others of the same kinds Many of these linked together, with initials on them, gave a girl quite a send-off. She was popular, her popularity attested by the number of links in her bracelet. , The anklet took the place of the bracelet for a while, but as a fad it was somewhat of a flivver.e ‘‘The necklace will never be re- placed,’’ says Mr. Imhoff. ‘It comes down from the ages. Women of all nations have been partial to the necklace. Of pé@arl, it is a thing of beauty. Of gold, it is charming. Of platinum, it is exquisite. Ags a\ matter of fact, beautiful necklaces may be made of almost. any precious gems. Chinese favor the jade and the Indians ran to beads. Each nation had its favorite years ago, so that an expert jeweler could almost tell from what country a woman came by the material of her necklace.

Rannie’s voice, grave with anxiety but not a bit crisp as it had been in the morning, answered her. ‘‘Mari, dear, I'm held up. There's a fellow here waiting for G.

He has sat upon his throne for 5@ years, an unusual term among Indian rulers in recent centuries. The state over which the oddly titled ruler has presided for half a century is described in a bulletin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the Na- tional Geographic society. ‘‘Baroda, one of the wealthiest of the Indian native states, is a group of ‘islands’ on dry land,’’ says the bulletin. ‘Only pre- war Prussia° had more scattered dominions. There are four main divisions, but about each of the larger regions cluster small districts and even separate villages that fairly pepper the territory of the Bombay presidency of British India, in ‘which the Gaekwar’'s ‘islands’ lie. There is probably a separate fragment of Barodan territory for each of the 50 years the Gaekwar has ruled. “The territories, which total 8.000 square miles, begin near the west coast of India, 150 miles north of Bombay city, and extend for 200 miles to the north. Other fragments are scattered off to, the west coast on the KXathiawar peninsula, the most remote being 225 miles from Baroda city, the capital. “Most of the state is level alluvium in a high state of cultivation. This is especially true of the region lying to the north of the capital. With its fields, well-ordered hedges and groves of trees, this section has much the appearance of English park land. Some of India’s best cotton land is in Baroda, and the state has 25 gins and a cotton mill. Rice and wheat are raised, and a _ considerable area 18 devoted to poppy growing for the making of opium. Growers of poppy are licensed, and the handling of opium is a state ' monopoly. “Baroda city has a population of 103,000, There, and in the vicinity, are the palaces of the Gaekwar. The white stucco palace of Nazar Bagh is notable chiefly as the Barodan strong box. In it are stored the Gaekwar's jewels, said to be worth $10,000,000. Among them is one of the world’s famous diamonds, ‘the Star of the South.’ of 125 carats. <An- other unit of the collection is a em- broidered with precious stones seed This was prepared for a Mohamme- dan ruler and was meant as a cover for the tomb of Mohammed. “Four miles south of the city is the Maka- pura palace, the country place of the Craek- war, It is noted for its fine gardens, foun- tains, grottoes and pergolas. The chief of the ruler’s residences is the ‘Lakssmi Vilas, In it is a huge Darbar hall, around which are covered and screened wooden galleries from which the women of the Gaekwar’s menage may observe state functions without being seen. ': , “Leading off: the main street of Baroda city are numerous ‘wards,’ each set aside for a separate caste or class. These are culs de sac, and across their entrances ane heavy gates. In certain sections of the town Eng- lish influences are noticeable. Baroda college has its cricket grounds, its tennis courts and - its gymnasium. Baroda spends more on public education than any othgr native state, maintaining public schools foboth boys and girs. There are even Zenana clas for adult women who must remain in ee aaicn “The 2,250,000 inhabitants of Baroda be- long predominantly to the Hindu faith, and the pinnacles of numerous Hindu temples pierce the skyline of the capital. The mi- nority religions are not molested, and the atronizes one of the chief Mohammedan festivals. “The life of the present Gaekwar has been like that of the hero of a fairy tale.

(Winner of $1 Prize.) Betty lived with her grandmother, who was very poor. Betty’s mother had died ‘when she was a baby, and her father had disappeared a short while after, and so she was left in the care of her grandma. One day it seemed as if they would have to go without a meal, for not a single bite of food was in the house; nor was there money to buy any. It was, indeed, a poor day for Betty and grandma. Betty pondered deeply for a while, when suddenly a thought struck her. “Grandma,” she cried, “I know how we will get a big dinner.”’ “How? You’re joking,”’ mother. _ “Oh no, I’m not,’’ said Betty. ‘I will go out and sing,’ and before grandma could say anything she was off. Betty bent her steps toward the residen- tial part of the city. Stopping outside ofa large house she started to sing. Her clear, young voice aroused a gentleman who, with- in his study, was reading. Leaving his com- fortable armchair, he went to see who it was. Seeing the frail little child, he called her to him. “What is your name, little one?’ he asked. ‘‘Betty Brown, sir,’’ she answered. ‘‘Brown is my name, too,’’ he told her. “Come inside and let me‘talk to you,’’ he said to her. Betty thought she was in fairyland as she entered the library. i She related to this kind man all about herself and her grandmother. ‘“‘Yes, yes, it is true. You are my own dear little daughter,”’ whispered Mr. Brown. Outside of grandmother’s door stopped Mr. Brown’s big car. He and Retty went up to the door. Explanations soon followed. After his wife’s death Mr. Brown went to Europe. Coming back to America he made a fortune. Later he began a search for Betty, but in vain. After Betty found her daddy you may be sure she nor grandmother never wanted for another dinner. MARGARET CONLON (13). 733 Twelfth street southeast. Washington in the Hands of an Enemy. (Winner of $1 Special Prize.) On August 14, 1814, the first skirmish in the District of Columbia since the Indians were forced from their habitation along the shores of the Potomac, took place. The British, about 5,000 in all, came up the Po- tomac and Patuxent rivers, including land forces, and burned the Capitol, President’s house, Treasury, State and Navy buildings, and a number of private homes on Capitol Hill. While the flames were rising, one of the most terrible thunderstorms in the his- tory of the city took place. The torrents of rain ‘extinguished the fires in the Capitol and President’s house in time to preserve the walls. Fearing an attack by our militia, the British withdrew the following night, leaving their wounded to the mercy of the Americans. Just before the arrival of the British in the city, Mrs. Madison left the President’s house, accompanied by several men for pro- tection, and took refuge in a tavern in Vir- ginia, when she was later joined by the President. The residence of the President was then established at Octagon House, New York ave- nue and Bighteenth street, where it remained until 1815. After the withdrawal of the British, Con- gress for a time occupied the Blodget hotel, southeast corner ‘of First and A _ streets northeast, now headquarters for the National Woman’s Party. It was for a long time known as the ‘‘old Capitol building’’ and was used during the civil war as a military prison. On October 18, 1814, the city council of Washington voted $300 for a sword to be prosented to Commodore Barney for his brav- ery and the officers under his command in the defense of the city.

She was the pride and joy of the Baker household. She was fairly worshiped by her brother Billy. -Mr. and Mrs. Baker gave her everything suitable for a girl 14 years of age. But despite all of théee things, Carol, like other children had one outstanding fault. That was washing dishes. Oh, how she de- tested dishes. Mrs. Baker did everything in her power to make her young daughter’s work pleasant. One evening Carol wanted to go to the theater With her cousin, Clarence Short, but she had to wash the dishes first. She began to pout. “Oh, said Billy, you can get through in a jiffy and I will drive you and Clarence to the theater in my new roadster.”’ One day Carol was sitting on the front steps talking to Molly Wilson, a girl friend. ‘Marcia,’ she said, calling her friend by her nickname. ‘Il wish we could eat out of paper plates.”” ‘‘Why do you want to do that?” said Marcia. ‘‘Then I wouldn’t have any dishes to wash,’ answered Carol. Mrs. Baker overhearing the conversation smiled to herself. The next day much to Carol’s surprise there were paper plates put on the table. Carol was very much- over- joyed. That evening soup was served for dinner. Everything went well for a while until sud- denly Carol’s plate began to leak. In at- tempting to lift it she spilled the contents all over her new dress. Paper plates were used for a week. Each day Carol had an accident with the plates. “They just won’t work right,” she said to her mother. Carol shed many a bitter tear. She no longer enjoyed her meals. She was almost afraid to touch the plates for fear they would leak. Wheh Mrs. Baker thought Carol had been sufficiently punished she began to use china dishes again. Carol was happy once more. She began to enjoy her meals. 9 had learned a lesson and learned it well. make it, pleasant or adopted the singing plan, task willingly and finished as Billy said, ‘‘in a jiffy.’’ : ALMIRA SHAMWELL (age 16). 135 U street northwest. unpleasant. She eaten The Fairy Spell. (Honorable Mention ¥ Once upon a time there was a very mean king who thought children were nuisances. So he made a cruel law forbjdding all chil- dren to come in the public streets between the hours of 12 and 1 on nights when there was no moon. The parents were forced to carry out tiis edict under penalty of death. One night all the children gathered in the park. “This will never do,”’ they cried; then some one suggested that they should drive the grown-ups out of town. Now the people of this city were very peaceful and even its policemen were only armed with birchrods. What could a hand- ful of grown people do against a hundred angry children? . After the adults were driven out, the chil- dren *elected a queen and her advisers. Their first decree was that all school books should be burned and that any one caught studying lessons was to be brought before them, and next, that all strawberry jam should be set aside for the queen. There was a bit of murmuring at this but the murmurers were quickly silenced. For days and days the children did noth- ing but play games. All this was very fine until one day the food gave out. No one could cook. What would they do? Two boys who had breakfasted off a jar of jam, eating it with spoons and no bread, said they didn’t know but somehow or other it hadn’t seemed to agree with them. From all sides complaints could be heard. At this moment a good fairy was flying over the city. ‘This will never do,” she said, and waved her wand over it. Lo ‘and bebold, grown-ups. They kept their forms and faces, but talked and acted like adults. Then thé queen said perhaps a suitable agreement could be made between the king and the children. So they started for the mountains where the grown-ups were. But what should appear to their wonder- ing eyes but grown-ups acting like children (for at the time the fairy changed the chil- dren to grown people she changed the adults to ‘children). The children were so amazed that they burst out crying. Instantly the spell was broken and everybody resumed their proper places. : The king had learned his lesson so he re- pealed his cruel law and the children lived happily ever after. | . , FRANCES M.

A very good story can be written within that limit if the words are used carefully. The poem should not be more than twenty lines in length and the drawing must be done in black ink.

It is a blight to beauty, health and fitness, and people have learned to combat it. Go ask your friends how they lost their fat and fol- low their example. The leading way for 19 years has been Marmola Prescription Tablets. Noabnormal exercise or diet is required. People simply take four tablets daily until the weight comes down to normal. Those delighted users have told others until. the use of Marmola has spread the world over. Your friends will tell you if you gék ‘em. People who know are using over a miiiion boxes yearly. - G try Marmola—you owe that to your- - Self. Watch the weight come down, the iP vitality goup. Note the change that appears 1a month.
