De Trafford managed to say “she fired,” police said, before he too lapsed into unconsciousness. He also was re- ported to have asserted that the shoot- ing grew out of a jealous quarrel. Late tonight the condition of beth was said to be grave, after operations ‘had been performed for removal of the bullets. The dowager Countess de Janze, tuld of the shooting, was deeply affected.

This is revealed by the fact that official reports show only 49 rounds were fired, resulting in 43 — casualties, throughout the worst period ex- perienced on the northern border of the international settlement. This period was last Monday, when 2,000 Chinese troops tried to break through. Not a shot has been fired since that time. MAN, HELD MOONSHINER, S SHOT IN RAID ON STIL Lorton, Va., Resident in Hos- pital After Shooting as Dry Agents Act. BATTLE IN WOODED AREA Robert. Hicks, 35 years old, of Lor- ton, Va., was dangerously wounded last night in a battle between alleged moonshiners and revenue agents in a wooded area near Lorton. Hicks is in an Alexandria! hospital suffering from a wound by a bullet which is be- lieved to have penetrated his abdomen. He was brought to the hospital by Revenue Agents L. J. Tutt and R. F. Cornette, of the District enforcement unit. They told Alexandria police they were not present when Hicks was shot. Tutt and Cornette said they left. Washington last night with three other prohibition agents whose nameés they did not give to Alexandria police, to raid stills meer Lorton. While searching through the woods the agetits “cattle” uneEpected! “Upon | @ 50-gallon still which was in opera- tion, police were told. The still was surrounded by three or four men whom, the agents said, opened fire on them. The agents concealed themselves in the underbrush and returned the moonshiners’ fire until they surrendered, police were told. Advancing upon the still with drawn guns the agents found that Hicks had been shot. Tut« and Cornette said that when the shooting occurred they were reconnoitering in the woods nearby. Hearing the sound of the shots, they hastened to the scene. Their brother of- ficers then informed them, Tutt and Cornette said, that Hicks had been in- jured and requested them to bring him to Alexandria in their car. The other agents remained at the still with their prisoners. At a late hour last night it was learned that the agents and their pris- oners had not returned from the woods where they were destroying the confis- cated still, whisky and mash. 180,000 Young Fascisti Get First Guns Today Rome, March 26 (By A.

P.),— Americans and other foreigners were fleeing tonight from pointe along the Yangtze valley, driven by the fires of. antiforeign feeling which the bomberd- ment of Nanking has apparently fanned into full blaze. Meanwhile a statement was issued by the Cantonese generalis- simo, Chang Kai-Shek, declaring that the foreign powers could not send enough warships to China to suppress the “aspirations of the Chinese people.” Chang, who arrived here today, re- iterated that foreign lives and property would not be endangered by the na- tionalist army in Shanghai, and said the nationalists had no intention of using force to change the status of the international settlement here. That problem would be settled by diplomatic means, “at the proper time and place,” He waved aside the Nanking affair as an isolated incident. Chang did not stop off at Nanking on his way from Wuhu, as had been expected, and his arrival here came as a complete sur- prise to the foreign authorities. U. 8S. Led By Britain, Is View.

He entered a street near the border and drove a few blocks before returning to Chinese territory. The ex- planation was that he lost his way.

A company of machine gunners of the United States marinc force now in Shanghai has been transferred from the eastern section of the foreign settle- ment to Avenue Foch, which divides the French concession from the foreign settlement, says a Shanghai dispatch to the Sunday Express. The Americans went to work immediately erecting machine gun emplacements in the new position which would become the American front line on the south side of the international settlement if the French lines should be penetrated. Persistent reports from reli- able Chinese sources, the dis- patch says, indicate that an at- tack by forces from the French side was due during the night. | 0) MARINES, 2 OFFICERS PICKED WERE FOR CHINA Order Withdrawing All Liberty Cheered at Barracks When Announced. LEAVE CITY TOMORROW Seventy marines and two officers from the marine barracks here were picked yesterday in the order drawing 1,600 men from navy yards, marine bar- racks and treining stetions ell ‘glong the Atlantic seaboard, to reinforce the 4,500 marines now in China. “Thirteen were. selected from the Washington navy yard. The marine barracks unit, in charge of First Lieuts. Howard B. Enyart and Edward McCal- laway, will leave Washington at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning for Phila- delphia, and thence for San Diego, where they will embark as part of the remobilized Sixth regiment of marines for China. The order, issued at 3 o’clock yester- day, recalled all marines now on lib- erty, and curtailed all further liberty, beginning at 8 o’clock today. ‘The order banning liberty was greeted at the marine barracks with boisterous cheer- ing when it was announced at the evening mess formation. The marine barracks were the scene of great activity following news of the mobilization. A number of the men owning automobiles were seeking pur- chasers, while others sought immedil- ately to communicate with wives, stveethearts and relatives. The men ckosen constitute for the most part the personnel of the marine corps institute, which corresponds on paper to the old Sixth regiment, de- mobilized on its return from France after the war. The detachment, which will be commanded by Col. Harold C. Snyder, of Quantico, will be equipped with tanks, light artillery and an avi« ation unit.

CLAYTON RESOLUTION LEADS TO HOT DEBATE re Normal School Survey Dis- cussed; Degrees Urged for Four-Year_Course. The Federation of Citizens’ Associa- tions last night refused to censure the citizens’ advisory council for indorsing the appointment of Ralph B. Flaherty, people’s counsel, of the public utilities commission, but took cognizance of charges that the council had exceeded its authority and ordered a committee appointed to define the duties of the council. In the course of the debate, President James G. Yaden took the floor and charged that three organizations, un- affillated with the federation, were try- ing to “crucify” the council and con- trol its election next Saturday night. He did not name the organizations, but said the information had reached him during the progress of the meeting. The organizations named in private discus- sion between delegates were the Wash- ing Board of Trade, the Chamber of Commerce and the Merchants & Manu- facturers association. The federation also approved, with a few modifications, the recommendation of the survey of the District normal schools. by the bureau of education. New Report Offered. The special committee to consider the resolution offered at a previous meeting by William McK. Clayton to censure the council submitted a lengthy report, classifying the powers of the council as express and implied and pre- senting the view that the council had acted within its implied powers in in- dorsing Fleharty and should not be cen- sured. The report recommended that the Clayton resolution be placed on file without further action and that a committee be appointed to define, in general terms; the powers of the coun- cil. Debate centered on a discussion of the powers of the council. William G.

Clayton’s argument followed same lines. He said: “The desire for power ® universal and the powers of the council have grown so that now we have a supercouncil. It is on the high seas under full sail and it. doesn’t propose to have its voyage in- terfered with by anybody. I don’t agree to permit that. If the council has all these powers either it or the federation is useless, and one wiil have to go out of existence.” Henderson then moved to adopt only the two recommendations of the re- port and place the remainder on file. Clayton seconded the motion. It was then that Yaden took the floor. He said: “I am of the opinion that the coun- cil has many times exceeded its author- ity and I am proud that it has. On one such an occasion, by acting promptly it defeated a bill in Congress after it had passed the Senate and saved the District taxpayers $100,000 a year. “If the council kad wajted to act only on matters referred to it by the commissioners, during the last six months, it would not have held a Single meeting.

There are three organizations in this city that are to- night seeking to crucify the council. I have just been informed of it tonight. They are seeking to control the election next Saturday nigkt. Do you propose to surrender to them? The council has its enemies in the District of Co- lumbia and to my mind that is evi- dence that it is wielding an influence.” The, vote on Henderson’s motion to abandon the committee’s comment on the council’s powers and history and adopt the recommendations was adopt- ed almost unanimously. Two recommendations of the bureau of education caused debate when the federation considered the normal school Survey. The bureau recommended that new academic teachers be required to have masters’ degrees. Several dele- gates argued at length to require only bachelors’ degrees. Masters’ degrees won by a vote of 36 to 32. The other debat- ed recommendation was to increase the required normal school course to teach to three years instead of two as at present. Dr. George C. Havenner moved to leave the required course at two years. but the motion was lost. The federa- tion recommended that an elective four-year course be added and that legal provision be made for the normal] school to confer degrees on four-year students. awrrictatéi ‘Other Normal Rec ions Other recommendations for normal school management included the fole lowing: Extension of the home economics course from two to three years; extend the physical training course to two periods each week; require at least one supervisor of practice teaching for each normal school; to institute special training for practice teachers; non- resident students in normal schools to pay tuition; both normal schools to of- fer extension. work for teachers already in the school system; frequent con- ferences between normal school in- structors and city school supervisors, to coordinate work. 3 The following compromise ‘recom- mendation was adopted to supplant one by the bureau of education: “If a sufficient number of properly qualified eligibles can not be found in the District of Columbia, a certain proportion of the supervisors and principals hereafter needed may be ap- pointed from outside the District.” It was announced that Robert R. , Faulkner had withdrawn as a candi- er = }; April 9 under auspices of the National tia oy * ah, oS a ahaa es ie.

AT HAINS POINT APRIL 9 Freddie Johnson, 4 years old, became bored when he was left alone with his year-old sister, Mary Jane, and his dog “Rex” in the Johnson apartment, at 205 D street northeast, last night, so he decided to have some fun. Locking the door of the apartment to guard against outside interference, Freddie found a box of matches and set fire to a rug in a bedroom. It was great “fun” watching the rug burn and Freddie carried Mary Jane to the door of the bédroom so she could share his enjoyment. The flames spread rapidly while Freddie looken on in ecstasies of joy, and soon the bed and the side of the wall were burning. The situation began to grow serious and smoke from the burning rug filled the apartment. Choking with the dense smoke Freddie realizéd he had done something wrong but he was afraid to summon help.

The estate, he said, covers 785 acres, and offers a wide di- versity of entertainment. “In the lake,” Senator Borah said, “is superb bass and trout fishing, while in the innumerable streams thereabouts are many fine trout pools.” FIRE RECORD. 6:08 a. m.—343 F street southwest: room. 8:50 a. m.—602 Eleventh street southwest; oll stove. 10:26 a. m.—2308 Connor’s court northwest; automobile. 337 a. m.—Twelfth west; oil burner. 11:55 ———— and Reservoir roads rush. m.—Franklin Square hotel; grease and G streets north- northwest; rh Pp. in kitchen, 12:43 a m.—316 Fourteenth street north- :39 p. m.—506 G street northwest; trash. 3:14 p. m 7:30 p. street northeast: pantry. : p. m.—3446 Connecticut avenue. in- cinerator. :24. p. m.—1671 Irving street northwest; automobile. ’ Lynn Drake, Miss Marjorie Webster, Mrs. Marie Moore Forrest and: Miss Leonore Marie De Grange.

f HE Tl AY NDS HER IN CELL Is 32 Years Old, and Was to Have Been the Center of Merry Party. SHE LOSES $104,000 BY CORONER’S VERDICT Attempt of Gray to End Life When Taken on Murder Charge Revealed. New York, March 26 (By A. P.).— Insurance totaling $104,000, payable to Mrs. Ruth Snyder, might have been hers, it was revealed today, if the mur- der of her husband, Albert Snyder, last Sunday, had been interpreted officially by the authorities as a slaying by burglars. District Attorney Newcombe, of Queens, said the $52,000 insurance car- ried by the art editor, who was clubbed to death and chloroformed in his bed, included a double indemnity provision in case of accidental death, killing by a burglar coming under that category. The desire to obtain the insurance money is said by the police partly to have inspired the killing by Mrs. Sny- der and her paramour, Henry Judd Gray, now awaiting trial for murder. Asked For Medicine. The police today report that while on the way to New York to be ques- tioned, Gray attempted to obtain a drink from a bottle which he said was medicine and which detectives had taken from his suit case in a Syracuse hotel. He was not permitted. to take the drink. The contents of the bottle, on analysis, was found to be whisky in which a deadly poison had been mixed. Today was Mrs. Snyder’s thirty- second birthday and she spent it in a@ tearful mood, weeping frequently. But for the murder which sent her and Gray to jail she would tonight have been in the midst of the gayety she said she loved. A birthday party was to have been held at her Queens Village home. The guests invited, according to Mrs. Snyder’s attorney, were to have been the same sixteen who were at the bridge-whist party last Saturday night from which Snyder returned, only to be killed in his bed. Falls to See Daughter. Mrs. Snyder’s attempts to see her daughter, Lorraine, failed again today. She has not seen the child since the murder. Gray, who suffered a nervous collapse in his cell yesterday, was better today. Attorneys for both the principals, jointly accused and jointly indicted for the murder, today declared their in- tentions to fight for seperate trials. The district attorney declaring the crime had been committe@jointly said he would oppose separate trials, insanity pleas and any change of venue. Scientists’ Union Formed in London London, March 26 (By A. P.).—Scien- tists have watched the fat pay enve- lopes of plumbers and street sweepers long enough. Now several of the most noted British scientists are forming a trade union with a view to sampling some of the fat envelopes themselves. An appeal to all directly engaged in scientific work, urging them to join the national union of scientific workers, is signed by 100: distinguished scientists and professional men, including Vis- count Haldane, Sir Max Muspratt, Sir Robert Hadfield, H. G. Wells, Prof. J. Huxley, Prof. A. Thompson and Sir Horace Darwin. The appéal says “We consider the unions should be entirely nonpolitical, but with definite economic and cul- tural aims—namely, to improve the status of men and women in science and to aid the cause of science itself.” Inguiry Over Kipper Begun in Commons London, March 26 (By A. P.).—The kipper and the kipper dealers are to be put on the grill in the house of commons, owing. to the high prices asked for the favorite English break- fast delicacy. Sir Wilfred Sugden, who charges that kipper retailers. make a profit of ap- proximately 4,500 per cent on each fish, will inaugurate the debate. Sir Wilfred, M. P. for the Hartle- pools west coast fish district, says deal- ers buy cured kippers from the fish- erles at seven for a penny, and that in his club in London he is charged a shilling for a pair. A question ad- dressed to the president of the board of trade brought a noncommittal reply, eo Sir Wilfred made known his inten- tions of raising the subject in the house at the first opportunity. Plans Globe Voyage In 22-Foot Sailboat Fernandino, Fla., March 26 (,By A. P.).—Dimetriu’s Sigelakis, 27-year-old Greek, is attempting to circumnavigate the globe alone in a 22-foot sailboat. He is undaunted by his harrowing ex- periences in 1924, when in a similar effort, he was on the storm-tossed At- lantic for 18 days with only a glass of drinking water between him and death. For the past month, he has been preparing for a 4A91l-mile jaunt from fami to Gibraltar, which he estimates will take 100 to 150 days. He reached Fernandino from New York in 22 days.

EDDIE DIGGINS, BOXER, IS STABBED IC TO DEATH Well- Known vn Lightweight Is Victim of Fight in Tea- room at Hollywood. Hollywood, Calif.. March 26 (By A. P.).—Eddie Diggins, 29, well-known early today in what police said was a free-for-all fight in a Hollywood tea- room. Nine men and women includ- ing Lloyd Hamilton, motion picture comedian, were held for investigation. When the police arrived at the tea- room, they found Diggins lying on the floor, ® knife wound through the heart. ables and chairs were over- turned. Charles Meehan, 24, of Beverly Hills, who said he was a brother of E. O Meehan, jr., a Department of Justice agent, was held on suspicion of mur- der. His wife was held for question- ng. : The police said they learned Meehan attempted to start a fist fight with a man known as “Billy Jones,” and Diggins requested the men to “make up.” As the boxer stepped between the two men the lights went out. Jones, who said he was a friend of Diggins, said the fight started in a he said he could not identify, appeared from the main dining room and one of them slapped Diggins’ face. Meehan’s story was to the effect that Diggins had insulted one of the women present and that he, Meehan had “slug- ged him through a window.” Police declared, however, that no broken win- dows were found. lightweight boxer, was stabbed to death’ side room when the two men whom: re eS a] mW BATTLE TO LIMIT ANSWERS OF FORD ON STAND Senator Hopes to Restrain Defense to Sapiro as the Only Issue. CAMERON’S SIX-DAY QUIZ BRINGS LITTLE Time When Motor Magnate Appears Still Matter of Conjecture. Detroit, March 26 (By A. P.).—Henry Ford’s appearance as a witness in Aaron Sapiro’s $1,000,000 libel suit against him threatened tonight to pro- vide little more of a sensation than his mere presence in the courtroom. Every effort of which the defense legally .is capable will be exerted to prevent the motor manufacttrer from being required to give testimony upon anything but the one issue the bril- liant array of defense council recog- nizes—Sapiro, the individual, against Ford. “We will try to hold Mr. Ford’s testi- mony strictly to the issues of the case,” Senator James A. Reed, of Missouri, chief of Ford council, said tonight. “I do not know what scope plaintiff’s counsel will be given in questioning him, but certainly we will try to have it limited to the issues.” That was interpreted as meaning that Ford probably would be gagged as efficiently as was William J. Cameron, editor of the Ford-owned Dearborn In- dependent, who in six days answered hardly half a dozen questions except- ing after strenuous objections and argument over the legality of the in- terrogation. Appearance is Uncertain. Just when the automobile manu- facturer would be agree remained @& matter of conjecture tepight. It had been intended to cal? Am during the past week but the progress of the trial was so slow that it got far off schedule. Next Wednesday was suggested by William Henry Gallagher, counsel for Sapiro, as possibly the day of the great event in the trial. Fred L. Black, business manager of the Dearborn Independent, in which were printed articles Sapiro alleged were libellous; a quire or so of depositions and Sapiro himself stood ahead of the appearance of Ford who, in the two weeks of the trial, has not visited the Federal building. Black was on the witness stand when court adjourned yesterday and his examination just had been started. He was being asked about a visit to him by Walton Peteet and Robin Hood, farmers’ cooperative organ- ization leaders, when he is alleged to have admitted that a Dearborn Inde- pendent article, shown him by Peteet was “bad” and to have expressed dubiousness if others relating to Sapiro were no better. Miller is a Surprise. Just before the week-end hiatus was ordered a surprise witness, James Mar- tin Miller, author of “The Amazing Story of Henry Ford,” connected Ford ‘!for the first time with the Dearborn Independent’s attack upon Sapiro. He testified that Ford had said to him that he understood “Sapiro and other Jews” were organizing the farm- ers and that he thought Sapiro would be exposed and “his apple cart” upset. The fag end of the second week of the trail produced a reitertaion by Cameron of his earlier testimony that Ford had delegated to him full and entire responsibility for the policy of the Dearborn Independent and the articles it printed by application of the “formula:” ‘“You’re the editor.” That held good, Cameron testified, even after Sapiro demanded a retrac- tion about which Ford was informed. Cameron also revealed that he wrote the “Ford page” in the Independent after absorbing the motor manufac- turer’s philosophy and opinions on na- VVBUVLY YY VBUYE tional matters.

P.)—Hickman’s Folly, the scene of one of Dickens’ grimmest stories, that of the death of Bill Sikes in “Oliver Twist,” is to be cleared by the London county council. Hickman’s Folly is an area close to Shad Thames at Dockhead.* It is near an unsavory center of misdeeds known as Folly Ditch; one of the “super slums” of the last century, according to historians, and both Charles Dick- ens and Kingsley described it in all its horrors. In one of the houses ™® this area Dickens made Bill Sikes take shelter from a howling mob, rush to the roof, and, in attempting to let himself down by a rope, hang himself. It is believed that Fagin, the Jew, and Sikes were real people who met their kind in a house in Hickman’s Folly. FALSE MURDER EVIDENCE BRINGS HER INDIGTMENT Marie Jackson, Whose Story Sent Man to Cell, Held as “Slain” Girl Weds. PROSECUTOR AT WEDDING Harlan, Ky., March 26 (By A. P.).— An indictment charging Marie Jackson, 27. years old, with false: swearing was returned today by the Harlan county grand jury. Circuit Judge J. G. For- rester set next Thursday as the date for her trial and appointed C. B. Spicer to represent her. The indictment against the Jackson woman charged her with falsely testi- fying at the murder trial of Conda Dabney that she saw him kill Mary Vickery, aged 16, and throw her body in an abandoned mine. The bones of a woman, as yet unidentified, were found in the mine and Dabney was sentenced to life imprisonment when Miss Jackson testified that the bones were those of the Vickery girl. Miss Vickery returned last week and the Jackson woman admitted she had “framed” Dabney because he would not leave his wife for her. Mary Vickery and C. E. Dempsey, 28, were married at a lawyer’s office here today. girl came swiftly after her unexepected return last week after she had been believed slain and Conda Dabney was serving a life sentence in prison for her “murder.” Living at the home of the girl’s father, E. C. Vickery, by whom he was employed as a painter, Dempsey re- newed acquaintance with the girl. He at LaFayette, Tenn., before he went into the navy. He was discharged from the navy at the expiration of his en- listment on July 31, last year, and came here. ° The marriage was solemnized by the Rev. H. C.

MY MAE QU OUT ENC Rest. Almost Forgotten Rule Found Giving “Power Until Suc- cessors Are Named.” MEETING IS EXPECTED TO AUTHORIZE ACTION Call by Borah Is Forecast; Doubt Felt on Obtaining Expenses. (By the Associated Press.) The Senate foreign relations commit- tee may function this summer, after all, investigating the Mexican, Nicaraguan and perhaps Chinese situations. Senators delving into the volume of Senate rules have come across an al- most forgotten resolution adopted in 1921 and providing that the régular standing committees “shall continue and have power to act until their suc- ceséors are appointed.” On the basis of this authority. Chairman Borah, who unsuccessfully sought at the last session to obtain authority for the committee to go to Mexico and Central America is expected to issue an early call for a meeting of the committee with a view to authoriz- ing a subcommittee to act. With the retirement of Senators Pepper (Repub- lican), Pennsylvania, and Lenroot (Re- publican), Wisconsin, those favoring in- quiries into the Mexican and Nicaragu- an situations would be in control. Whether a majority of the committee would come to Washington in response to a call is an open question, Doubt on Expense Fund, There also is doubt as to whether the committee could obtain funds to pay traveling and other expenses, since all vouchers would have to be approved by Chairman Keyes, of the Senate audit committee, who already has declined to approve expenses of the ‘Senate cam- paign funds committee. There is a difference in the status of+ the two committees, however, the one being a standing committee and the other an especially appointed one to perform a specific purpose, the investi- gation of senatorial primaries and elec- tions held last year. Just before Congress adjourned, Chairman Borah offered a_ resolution proposing that his committee hold in- vestigations into the Mexican and Nica- raguan situations, and to visit those countries, if it deemed that course ad- visable. This resolution failed to meet with ' the full approval of the administration, and before the committee acted upon it several State Department officlals appeared and gave additional informa- tion regarding the administration's course in Central America. Held Within Country. Administration senators then had the resolution so amended as to require the committee when sitting during the recess to remain within continental United States. The measure in this form was reported favorably to the Senate, but, like many other pieces of legislation, failed in the filibuster of the closing days of the session. Most senators, Chairman Borah among them, thought that ended the matter, but an examination today of the Senate rules disclosed that author- ity existed for the committee to func- tion until its successor is appointed with the convening of the new Con- mission. _ $1,000,000 for them. ess, next December. The resolution conferring such au- rity was adopted in 1921 at the pening of the Sixty-seventh Congress, € purpose being a complete reorgan- ization of the standing committees so that additional places would be given the Republicans, who had rolled up a large Senate majority in the Harding tidal wave of 1920. French Plan to Seek Nonstop Air Record French aviators are determined to break the world’s nonstop flight record tnis year, according to recent advic+s to the Department of Commerce from Trade Commissioner H.

SAYS AMERICAN ENVOY TOLD HIM OF “DESIRE” Minister Geissler Declines to Comment on the News- paper Article. Confirmation of the statement in The Washington Post on March 12 that the American State Department used its in- fluence to have Guatemala accord recognition to the Diaz government in Nicaragua, came from Guatemala City last night. ~ In a cablegram to The Post the editor of Di Ario de Guatemala declared that Arthur H. Geissler, American Minister to Guatemala, approached the Guate- mala minister of foreign affairs, Senor Matos, last November, and told him that it was the “desire” of the Ameri- can State Department that Guatemala should recognize the Diaz government in Nicaragua. ; Senor Matos, the cablegram said, ad- mitted that Minister Geissler had com- municated the department’s “desire.” In an exclusive article March 12 The Post. stated that the State Department had sent a secret document to Law-~- rence Dennis, charge d’affaires in Nica- ragua, instructing him to do everything possible to bring about the election of Adolfo Diaz as president of Nicaragua. The article stated further: “Supporting those who believe in the authenticity of the document is the official record of a cablegram sent to Arthur H. Geissler, American Minister to Guatemala. In that message, the State Department requested the envoy to obtain recognition of President Diaz by the government to which you are ac- credited.’ It further stressed the point that unless such recognition was ac- corded, the United States migkt ‘pos- sibly’ see fit to decline recognition of President Chacon, then duly elected constitutional chief executive of Guate- mala. , “The strong ‘hint’ thrown out by the State Department had its necessary ef- fect. Guatemala recognized Diaz as president of Nicaragua. Subsequently, this recognition was withdrawn, under the combined efforts of liberal elements. Nevertheless, the initial step taken by the State Department has afforded op- ponents an opportunity to digress upo its influence in Central American af- fairs. Those opponents say the instruc- tions indicate significantly the de- partment’s leaning toward the conserv- ative Diaz and the department’s hand in the obscure maneuverings of Latin- American politics.” Geissler Declines to Comment, Minister Geissler, according to the cablegram received last night, courte- ously declined. to comment on the story in The Post. Senor Matos, the Guatemalan minis- ter of foreign affairs, however, declared that Geissler made no insinuations that President Chacon might not be recognized if Guatemala did not accede to the State_Department’s “desire’ ’that President Diaz. be recognized. Senor Matos, the cablegram stated, explained that Guatemala later had withdrawn its Minister from Nicaragua because President Diaz refused the of- fer of Guatemala’s good offices, thus prolonging the civil war there. Juan B. Cacassa, the liberal president, Senor Matos stated, had accepted these good offices. A prominent Nicaraguan liberal, the cablegram stated, told a representative of Diario de Guatemala that Minister Geissler had supported Guatemala in offering its good offices. Acceptance by Diaz, he stated, would have resulted in a peace conference, over which the United States would have presided. Had such a conference taken place, accord- ing to opinion in Guatemala, there would have been no necessity for inter- vention. Military Attache Assigned. Maj. Edwin M. Watson, field artillery, now a. student at the Command and General Staff school, Fort Leavenworth, Kans., will go to Brussels as military attache to Belgium and Holland, fol- lowing a short tour of duty here in the office of the assistant chief of staff.

EMPLOYES Effort Being’ Made.to Replace Them After April 2 With Business Men. a De The campaign for.election of mem- bers of thé citizens’ advisory. council’ flared into white heat last week and, the few days remaining before the vot-. ing, April 2, ‘promise, to seé an ener-; getic canvass for.votes by leading -can-' didates. ' Those engaged in the effort to force as many Federal employes as possible off the membership list of next year’s council and supplant them with busi- ness men, are led by Edwin 8. Hege, of Chevy Chase. Fred 8S. Walker, candidate for reelection, has taken up the cudgel in defense of the present council and is trying to organize the delegates to the Federation of Citizens Associations to resent any attempt to influence the voting by organized business men not affiliated with the federation. Business Organizations Named. Up to the present no visible steps have been taken by the trade bodies to interfere in the election, but Walker charges that the business men are try- ing to obtain control of the council. Hege, in his canvass for votes for a business men’s ticket, mentions the names of the Chamber of Commerce, the Washington Board of Trade and the Merchants & *Manufacturers associa- tion, saying that these bodies, although disgusted with the council for espous- ing the Fitzgerald workmen’s compen- sation bill, are waiting, before doing anything against -the council, to see whether the federation will not reform the council at the election by placing business men on its memebrship. Hege states that he is not making an effort to obtain his own election. But he is actually campaigning for Col. Henry ©, Newcomer, former assistant to the engineer commissioner, and now @ banker. The Citizens Association of Chevy Chase, represented in the fede- ration by Hege, has taken the burden of his candidacy from his shoulders, having issued a campaign circular bearing Hege’s picture and qualifica- tions and soliciting support for him. Walker, who is secretary of local Typographital union, No. 101, issued a statement last week in defense of himself and two other members of the council seeking reelection. The others are George R. Wales, civil service com- mission; Dr> George C. Havenner, in- vestigator of the bureau of efficiency, who has been nominated by eight citi- zens’ associations and goes into the election with a block of 16 out of 100 delegates instructed to support him. “It is published in the newspapers that Washington business men are pre- pared to take a hand in the coming election of the citizens’ advisory coun- cil. We are assured that, because of the recent indorsement of the Fitz- gerald bill, these business men have arrived at the conclusion that they must be represented, and it is not difficult to surmise that. they are son- vinced they must control that body “The claim was made that the coun- cil indorsed the Fitzgerald bill with- out the advice of’ interested parties and thereupon the council held a hearing at which representatives of business organizations appeared. They advanced statements which, if not at- tributable to ignorance of both the Fitzgerald and Underhill bills, must rsd .been inspired by desire to mis- ead. Council View Declared Important. “Until that hearing’ the council had not heard any one. It is not imperti- nent to ask whom did the commercial organizations hear, before they in- dorsed the Underhill bill?’ And whom did the commissioners hear when they so hurriedly reindorsed it? The coun- cik was conceived by Commissioner Bell and was organized by the Feder- ation of Citizens Associations. The work has been carried: on by those who usually do the labor—wage earn- ers. None of the members of the council would benefit. by the passage of either bill and they all, therefore, were in a position to be impartial. . “Now that the couricil seems to be | growing effective, the old story is re- curring. The employers propose to step in and play ‘the old game of Co BUILDING MATERIALS BIG SAVINGS ’ Lumber Millwork Plumbing Roofing . But the business interests | trol the council only with the corisent nof the delegates to the: federation. If the delegates desire the council to be a creature subject to the city’s commer- cial interests, they will not lack advice as to which candidates to support. A plan to make the citizens’ associations mere tails to the Board of Trade kite failed a few weeks ago. It will be interesting to learn how this latest plan works out.” The Columbia Heights Citizens asso- clation has isused a mimeographed ap- peal for votes for Mrs. Lucy Swanton, who is also a council candidate. The letter states that she has been actively in half a score of important civic activities and is the same kind of person as is her husband, W. I.

It is declared that the shooting foiled a plot to start a rebellion among fed- eral soldiers stationed at Santa Maria del Oro, in the state of Nayarit. Sergt Jesus Ruiz shot and killed his Lieut. Salas Valero, when the latter tried to ta Ruiz and other soldiers to re- el. President Calles has sent a telegram praising Sergt. Ruiz and the other sol- diers for their ty. He has ordered the promotion Ruiz. The war department announces the defeat of a rebel p in an encoun- ter near the village of Rambelas, in the state of Jalisco. Forty rebels are re- ported killed.

Nogales, Ariz., March 26 (By A.

The Herald gives the prob- able destination of the Progresso as being the Tres Marias islands, Federal prison for political malefactors. The Guaymas Dispatch states that the Yaqui prisoners number more than 200, most of them women and children. Killing of Bobolinks Forbidden by Jardine (By the Associated Press.) Secretary Jardine has issued an order forbidding the killing of reedbirds, or ricebirds, known in the North as bobo- links. Since 1919 it has been permissible to kill these birds in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, District of Columbia, North Carolina, South Caro- lina, Georgia and Florida for the pro- tection of rice growers, but this per- mission is now revoked. By special permit from the Secretary of Agri- culture rice growers may be authorized to shoot the birds between August 16 and November 15 on rice fields, Such birds may be eaten, but may not be sold. | R.

TATTOOING BY SAVAGE PEOPLES IS EXPLAINED Marks Used as Charms or for Cures, as Recognition in Next World. Chicago, March 26 (By A. P.).—Hu- man hair betrays race, nationality, sex and probably age, the Central States section of the American Anthropological] association was informed at: its annual sting here today by Morrie Bern- bin, of New York city, a student at Ihe University of Chicago, who has roncluded detailed experiments with of all colors and coarseness, An Irishman’s hair, for instance, has ifferent weight than an Italian’s and an old Irishman’s hair, Mr, Bernstein said he believed, would show a definite difference from a young Irishman’s. This discovery has considerable im- portance in the realm of physical an- thropolgy, Bernstein said, inasmuch as researchers may now have hair to work upon as well as skulls in making an- thropological determinations. “Differences in hair weight are due to three causes,” he said, “first differ- ences in quantity of pigment present; second, presence or absence of air bub- bles, and third, differences in area of cross section, that is, coarseness of hair. Sexual differences seem to be due to-the differences in area of cross tection.” . .- Tatto as a Charm.

P.).— The national wealth of the United States amounted to $355,300,000,000 in 1925, according to the estimate of the ‘national industrial conference board, made public today. The last previous estimate made was on the census estimate of 1922, when it was calculated at $320,080,- 000,000. In 1912 the census estimate of the national wealth was $186,- 030,000,000. In terms of 1913 purchasing power of the dollar, the board estimates the national wealth at $188,000,000,- 000 in 1912 and at $223,090,000,000 in 1925.

Some of the reasons, he said, why tat- tooing is carried on today among primi- tive people, are: As.a pain test for boys about to be- come adult members of the’tribe; for girls who have reached a marriageable age; recognition in spirit world; as honorary marks to commemorate the taking of heads of scalps; for making a long voyage of capturing whales; to indicate social status; to act as charm to give strength or good luck. Berlin Democrats Ask Cut in Army Budget Berlin, March 26 (By A. P.).—A 10 per cent reduction in the military budget is demanded in a motion intro- duced in the reichstag today by the democrats.

P.).—As the period approaches when the long- rumored war within the motor indus- try is expected to be brought into, the open, leaders in the industry continue to observe a tight-lipped silence re- specting their plans. In the meantime persons affected by the ebb and flow of the market specu- late in. all directions regarding. the next move of the principals. Of the three prime: factors in the rumored. war—tk>2 Ford organization, the General Motors Corporation and the independents—from only the lat- ter has there come a statement upon which might be placed the stamp of officiality. William.C. Durant, a manufacturer in the ‘independent field, which in- cludes concerns affiliated neither with the Ford organization nor the General Motors, announced that he shortly will reveal plans for a move that will rival -anything in. his already sensa- tional. career within the motor car industry. Speculation regarding Durant’s plans is rife, but the most persistent rumor is that. he will withdraw from Wall street and again take up an active role in the manufacturing end of the auto- mobile business. Rumor has it he plans a new low-priced car, the product of a combine on which he is reported to have been working for more than a year. | Rumors of Wide Merger. Whether the r2ported combine con- templates a merger of the four fac- tories in which Durant is. now. inter- ested—the Flint, Durant, Star and Locomobile—with other independent companies, is a matter of much spec- ulation. One report has it the Conti- nental Motors along with a number of other independent companies thus far not mentioned in published reports, will be included in the merger if it is brought. about. Neither the Ford organization nor the General Motors executives com- mented regarding Durant’s contem- plated move. While a number of in- dependent producers have pleaded ignorance of the former General Mo- tors executive’s plans, some have given it-as their opinion no large mergers | among independents are impending. . Of tbe Ford Co.’s plans for the rumored war, no official statement has been made. Hosts of financial writers have attempted vainly to peek at the trick bag of the enigmatic Ford. But Ford: is reported to keep his “plans locked in his.owr’ brain and thus far he_has given out no information re- garding them for public: consumption. Of the: numerous plans attributed to the Ford Co. one which’ is given more than ordinary credence is that it soon will announce a revised price schedule on the light car it now has on the market, this to be followed.later by. the introduction of a new four- cylindered machine, with an air-cooled motor and a changed transmission, The new car, it is reported, will be in the lower priced class. Within a few months, according to these reports, Ford will be on the open market with a second new car, this an eight-cylin- dered machine of the middle priced variety. General Motors’ Stand. The General Motors Corporation, third factor in the rumored war for supremacy, has been equally reticent YTegarding plans. Indications, however, are--that the corporation will stand with its present line of cars. -General Motors now has a total of seven pas- senger machines on the market and a host of trucks and accessories. Its light car, the Chevrolet, at present, is the leading seller in its field, which was previously dominated by Ford. General Motors is understood to*take the position that the phenomenal suc- cess Of their product was not caused by added demand, but, on the contrary, was due to the process of “cutting in” on their competitors’ business. Respecting the relative positions of tre “three principal groups only. the status of the Ford organization is. not a matter of public record. By reason of the tremendous sale of its products heretofore, however, the company is conceded to be solidly in- trenched. The company is owned com- pletely by the Ford family and its stock is not listed on the open market. Fc 1 is reported to have been silently retrenching for the past year and a half and to have piled up an enormous cash reserve. No production figures have been issued in that time, and this fact has lec to the report that the plants were being altered for the in- stallation of a new line of machinery for the production of new types of ng The plants have been operating @ part-time basis oe this re- ported alteration. Others Financially presi - Although some of the independent companies did not announce large profits last year, most of them are declared to have shown good earnings and to have surpluses on hand. General Motors has just concluded its record year, in which sales of more than $1,000,000,0C , along with net profits of $187,000,000. Most .of its plants now are reported running at capacity.

Berlin, March 26.(By A. P.).—Four members of the former Black Reichs- ganization within the army, were sen- tenced to death by the guillotine in the Berlin criminal court today for «the murder, in 1923, of Sergt. Maj. Walter Wilms. Wilms was suspected by the Organization of betraying its. anti- republican activities to the government. Officers Fuhrmann, Klapproth and Umhofer were convicted. of . luring Wilms into an automobile, beating him into unconsciousness, loading his pock- ets with bricks and throwing him‘ into the river near Potsdam. When the body rose to the surface, perhaps through loss of the weights; the officers were declared to have fired their. re- volvers at it until it disappeared.. .The fourth man convicted, Lieut. Schulz, was charged with having ordered the crime. Schulz was tried -several times ‘pre- viously in other alleged murder ‘cases charged to the Black Reichswehr, the prosecutor alleging that he engineered more than twelve assassinations, but until today the state was unable to ob- tain his conviction. Doyle Is Interested In Balloon Jumping London, Marck 26 (By A: P.).—The new sport of balloon Jumping has in- terested Sir A. Conan Doyle, who con- ceived the idea some years ago of using small balloons or hydrogen knapsacks as an aid to pedestrians. Sir Arthur says “I feel-that too much should not. be attemipted. If the mar- gin between the. man’s weight and the lifting power is only a few, pounds, and huge leaps are made, it will mean. a loss of control and be the. cause of many accidents. What is needed is to man, so that he can go on his way swiftly and without fatigue. Better 30-foot strides under control than 100- yard: springs where one may be the sport of puffs of wind or unseen ob- stacles.” Lower Caviar Price Credited to Soviet French Lick, Ind., March 26 (By A.

Because the soviet regime has permitted more Russians to fish the Caspian sea for sturgeon, which yield caviar, according to Paul Perreau, Western manager of an American im- porting house. “Caviar sold in New York for $14 a pound in 1917, while today it is $7. New Yorkers are the largest consum- ers of caviar, with Chicago second, said ‘Perreau, who is spending a aad days here. Northern Pacific’s Income Decreases St. Paul, Minn,, March 26 (By A. P.).

RAISED “America. First” and “Save Chicago” Are Slogans of _Main Parties. Chicago, March 26 (By A. P.) —King George of England is an involuntary paign. Verbal onslaughts on: the unwitting monarch, bands playing the national airs, cries of “America first,” ‘Fight for Chicago,” pamphlets passing from hand to hand, and “whispering cam- paigns,” mark a paradoxical political parade, probably never equaled in Chi- cago. Besides the international tinge and talk of municipal home rule, discus- sions of racial-and religious questions have’ been carried on in the whispering, and some times out loud. Mayor William E.. Dever, Democratic incumbent, occasionally asks what King George has to. do with the campaign? William Hale Thompson, Republican nominee, former mayor, Dever’s pre- decessor who served two terms, with a battle cry of “America first” is leading the fight on King George. The «fng’s position is analogous, except. - that Thompson charges school histories un- der the Dever school board contain British propaganda Will Vote April 5. The voters, some bewildered, many unmoved, about 1,100,000 of them, will go to the polls on April 5 to choose be- tween Dever, Thompson and Dr. John Dill Robertson, independent, and for- mer health 5 geerrmeReR ce under Thomp- son. The presidential election of 1928, leaders say, has led the forces of United States Senator Charles S. Deneen and Roy O. West, Republican national com- mitteeman, to go to the support of Thompson in the interest of party har- mony. Thompson’ triumphed in ; the February primaries over E. R. Litsing- er, the Denee candidate. Besides the cries of “America first” in the Thompson band wagon, and the singing of the Deverites of “Save Chi- cago” and similar slogans, crime, em- phasized under the Dever administra-~- tion by a long list of gangster killings, involving the use of machine guns, has been mentioned, but has been thun- dered about chiefly by Robertson, who calls, his forces the “peoples’ ownership —smash the crime rings.” With both Dever and Thompson against prohibi- tion, liquor is not a major issue. Negro Vote Figures. The negro vote, which controls three wards and is conceded to. be largely for Thompson, has. aroused some of the bitterest charges in the campaign. The Thompson forces charge the police with “cossack-like” raids in the negro dis- ‘trict. The Dever campaigners call at- tention to race riots in 1919 when Thompson was mayor. Thompson replies that if Dever. and George E. Brennan, Democratic na- tional committeemen, “start. a race riot I’ll dedicate two years to putting them in the penitentiary.” Dever answers: “I don’t know what ails the man.” . Perjury Charge Made. By Hanlon’s Lawyer San Francisco, March 26 (By A. P.).— Dismissal,of the murder charge against “Eddie Hanlon, former boxer, growing out. of the death of Walter Noonan from a knife wound January 26 was asked today in a motion made by his at- torney, who charged in open court that Joseph Tracy had given perjured testi- mony in the case. The motion: was taken under advise- ment by a police judge until Thursday. Tracy had testified he saw Hanlon hit Noonan with a bottle in Hanlon’s cafe preceding the stabbing. _ Boys Digging Cave Are Killed at Play Childress, Tex., March 26 (By A. P.).

MARINE, SHOT TWICE, _ | KILLS TWO ASSAILANTS Feminine Refugees, on Ships, Terrified When Big Guns Begin Bombardment. Shanghal, March 26 (By A. P.).—Har- rowing tales of escapes from death at the hands of lawless, bestial soldiezs, inflamed against foreigners, were re- lated today by Nanking refugees ar- riying at Shanghai on the steamers Kungwo and Wenchow. The number of; refugees brought by these steamers totaled 220. The known America casualties are: Dr. J. E. Williams, of Shawnee, Ohio, vice president of Nanking university. Injured: Miss Anna E. Moffet, Fort Sheridan, Tll;, of the Presbyterian mission, Shot twice in the body by @ nationalist. sol- dier. She will recover. Private Plumley, corps. An American. bluejacket, unidenti- fied. Earl T. Hohart, manager of the Standard Oil plant at Nanking. Ankle broken. Mrs. John K. Davis, wife of the United States consul, was still, shaken by. the ordeal. She. told of the flight of Americans, including herself and her two. children, from the consulate, where the Cantonese threatened to_ kill all foreigners. Mrs. Davis. and her children arrived with nothing. save the clothes on their backs, She displayed a bottle of cough, syrup given to her by an officer on the. Kungwo, saying: “Here's my baggage.’ On Thursday morning, she. related, twenty-three Americans were. gathered at the consulate—she and Mr. Davis and their two. children, Vice Consul Paxton, six missionary men, 2 marine officer, and eleven marines, The lat- ter had come ashore from. the destroyer Noa Tuesday to guard the. consulate. Mr. Davis ordered, the. marines, to put. away their arms as he did. not want the Cantonese to find an armed guard as it might provoke an, attack. He also sent word to Americans. concentrated at Nanking university not to try to oppose the soldiers since it might mean death. Word of Looting Received, At 10 a. m., Thursday, word was re- ceived that the Cantonese troops had begun looting; then it was reported that the British and Japanese consuls had been killed and the consulates looted. Mr. Davis ordered the men to resume their arms and the party start- ed for Socony hill, which had been designated as the concentration point, with the Stars and Stripes ‘5 the head. Hardly had the party left the con- sulate when soldiers in nationalist uni- forms fired on them. They kept up a constant sniping from alleys during the 2 miles ‘to the Socony plant. The Davis children, and a girl named Shan- non, aged 11, and a boy named Spen- cer, aged 6, bravely’ walked the entire distance without a whimper. Mrs. Davis’ voice trembled with pride as she related this portion of the adven- ture. She said she reached Socony hill thoroughly exhausted; the men had to help her along. The sniping grew heavier until, when a half mile from the hill, they were almost surrounded. There they took refuge temporarily in @ bamboo grove. Three soidiers who followed 50 yards to the rear, fired and hit Private Plumley in che back. He fell, but gamely returned the fire, kill- ing two of jis assailants. They Run to the Station. The party ran the rest of the way and gained the Socony station, where several Britishers and Americans had already assembled, women and children were sent upstairs as the men prepared for defense. Other groups of refugees arrived early in‘ tke afternoon, bringing the total to more than 50. Soldiers in nationalist uniforms began coming to the house in large groups, demanding money and threatening to kill all within. This occurred several times. of the ‘marine Mr. Davis and Earl T. Hobart, Standard | Oil manager, risked their lives while facing the soldiers and arguing with them in Chinese. Finally one of the soldiers said to Mr. Davis: “We don’t want more money. We want to kill; we'll kill Americans, French, British or any foreigners.” At 3 o’clock, the firing which had kept up through tke early afternoon, became heavier. Mr. Paxton, who had left the party while it was on the way to.Socony hill, to seek two Kuomintang (mationalist) friends, returned with them, bearing a Kuomintang flag. This seemed to enrage the soldiers, who tore down the flag and began attack- ing the house in earnest, starting to crowd up the entry way and steps. The marines were ordered to arm and pre- Pare to fight. Rocket Is Signal to Ships. “A rocket—tke agreed signal asking the warships for aid—was sent up, Mrs. Davis continued. “The women and children were all shut in the bathroom, where they lay om the floor, hearing the bullets crash- marines replied.

They feared for the worst, as when they sailed from Nanking the situation was direful, but were much relieved when they leafned that a majority of the foreigners had been evacuated. Among those who have reached Shanghai are Mrs. Allen: Hutcheson, of Houston, Tex., wife of the superin- tendent of the Nanking University hos- pital, and her three children. The Hutcheson party was evacuated early Thursday, being taken in a launch from the bund to:the Noa un- der fire from both sides. of the river. They were immediately ordered below. The refugees were, in a high pitch of excitement as they knew it was only a matter of time until the ships opened fire. Warned of Bombardment. At 3 o’clock Thursday afternoon, the Officert explained to the refugees that the bombardment was soon to begin. He warned them to remain quiet and unafraid. The, Preston opened the bombard- ment, closely followed by the Emerald and Noa. The firing continued for an hour and a half, the Emerald using big 6-inch shells.

Refugees arriving here were fervent in their praise of the navy men, de- claring: “Ph? navy saved us. Without it, every foreigner would have been murdered.” . One of the outstanding incidents wis the heroic action of an American sailor who, when the refugees were huddled on Socony Hill, surrounded by mcbs of loot-crazed Cantonese, stood on the roof of the Standard Oi) building amid a hail of bullets, and gave the signal which prought into play the big guns of the warships. One of the dieiectilen ships was the first to open fire, and the shell, burst- ing a few yards from ‘the besieging Cantonese soldiers, scattered them and allowed the refugees their chance to get to the river, No Japanese Bombardment.

The looters, who tried to burn down the building, took every- thing they were able to lay their hands on, but decamped on the arrival of a Kuomintang official whose aid was in- voked by telephone.

Snyder, former Washington man, and including marine artillerists and aviators from Quantico, Va., was started there, and at Philadelphia yesterday, for duty in China wheré they will arrive in 30 days. Marines are being sent to these ata- tions from the ‘Atlantic seaboard ste- tions of Portsmouth, N.

Nicaragua, yesterday, and should ar- rive at San Diego April 3. Navy De-/| partment officials said that the arrival | of the troop trains at San Diego should coincide with the arrival of the Henderson. Realization of the latest order will bring the marine force in China to approximately 3,000 men, commanded by Brig. Gen. Smedley D. Butler. ~i Marine Units Already Mustering. The marine mobilization order yes- terday brings into existence again the famous Sixth regiment, which closed | with the termination of the world war, orders from Maj. Gen. Lejeune bringing | the organization back into active or- ganization status, when he was called on to provide the additional 1,500, rep- resenting the recreated Sixth. The order, as usual, found the ma- rines prepared for the contingency, and units are already arriving at muster- ing points, As outlined by Maj. Gen. Lejeune, the / Sixth regiment will consist of twa bat- talions, plus aviation units, and a bet- tery of artillery. Ordinarily a r ent consists of three battalions, but this instance the third battalion is elim- inated in favor of the two technical | groups. The regiment will be organized with @ brigade headquarters and head- quarters company for the use of Brig. Gen. Butler, and regimental headquarters and headquarters com- pany and two battalions. The first! battalion will consist of the Seventy- third machine gun and howitzer coni- pany, Seventy-fourth, Seventy-fifth and Seventy-sixth rifle companies. The second, of the Highty-first machine gun and howitzer companies, - Seventy- eighth, Seventy-ninth and Eightieth rifle companies. Both battalions will have headquarters. and headquarters companies, and there will be a gi ae service company and an aviation unit! for the entire force. Two Aviation Divisions. The aviation unit will be of two divisions of six planes each, the usual organization of a marine air. section, minus a balloon squadron. The bat- tery of artillery will be furnished from the Tenth marine regiment of artillery at Quantico, and is equipped with four 75-millimeter guns. In accordance with the mobilization schedule, telegrams were dispatched to all marine corps. units involved from Portmouth, N. down through Bos- ton, New York, Philadelphia, Quantico | and Parris Island, marines, immediately | making preparation to entrain for. cen- | tralization points. The Tegument will proceed as one unit to its port of embarkation, offi- cers at marine corps headquarters be- | ing sanguine that the mobilization would be completed by the firat of the | week and the movement westward started. The pianes for the aviation unit, six fighting and six observations, were be- ing knocked down for packing at. Quan- tico yesterday, and while a percentage | of the personnel for the aviation unit wi!l likewise come from Quantico, ma- rine fliers from San Diego will supple- ment it, and aviation: personnel from the island of Guam will complete the make-up. Henderson Not to Be Diverted. Present plans call for the Guam force to proceed independently to Shanghat rather than divert the Henderson to that island on its voyage across the Pacific. The force assembling at’ Quantico will be commanded by Col. Harold C. Snyder. He was born at Alexandria, Va., in 1872 and appointed to the corps in 1899. He saw service in the Vera Cruz occupation in aq with expeditionary forces in Cuba in 1906 and 1913 and was liaison officer in the St. Mihiel of fensive and the march to the Rhine. He served two years at corps head- quarters in this city since the world war, in Santo Domingo, at Quantico, and since June has been commanding officer of the Marine barracks at Phil- .adelphia, He received his cory education in the public schools of Alexandria and later moved to Washington, at. 1361 ard street northwest and gradu- Georgetown university law Other Commanding Officers. eut.

P.).—Japa- nese women and children were outraged and assaulted by the Cantonese in |Nanking, says the Shanghai corres- pondent of the Daily Express in an ac- count of the release of the foreigners after the last ultimatum by the foreign naval commanders. Just before expiration of the ultl- matum, at 5 o’clock yesterday after- noon, @ British party, followed closely by Japanese, appeared at the water- front. The Japanese numbered about 100. Nearly every garment had been torn from some of the women and chil- dren, The Japanese Maj. Menito was bayonetted while attempting to rescue @ woman and the Japanese chief of police was shot in the head while try- ing to, save another from molestation. As sole relics, they brought out a large portrait of the late Emperor of Japan and a copy of the Japanese consular code. Just after the hour for expiration of the ultimatum, parties of Americans, including many women, came into sight on the bund. They were the last of the foreigners to arrive as they had the greatest distance to travel | Some of the American women had been brutally treated. Their clothing was ripped and they were otherwise maltreated. Some fell behind, ex- hausted. . Secretary of the Navy Wilbur held con- ference with naval officers, and then with Secretary of State Kellogg, Ad- miral E. W. Eberle, bureau of naval operations, and Maj. Gen. Charles P. Summerall, army chief of staff, at the State Department, following which Secretary Kellogg announced that the extra force of Marines would be sent to Shanghai, in compliance with Ad- miral Williams’ request. Admiral Eberle then announced the order to the transport Henderson, and Maj. Gen. John A. Lejuene, comman- }dant of the marine corps, said that a regiment of 1,228 men would be mo- bilized at Quantico, which with head- quarters company, other details and of- ficers should bring its strength up to 1,500. | Seeretary Wilbur, after informing | President Coolidge of the decision to send additionaly marines, said that the reason for the order was apparent, it being the inability of the Cantonese commanders at Nanking to control the troops, this leading to the belief that notwithstanding their good intentions, there might be further difficulties. “We thought it a part of wisdom to have @ larger number of marines available,” he said, “and I should infer from Ad- miral Williams’ request that he feels | this will be a long, drawn-out affair.” Williams and Hough Praised. Declaring that the department had .no reason to feel that Admiral Will- iams’ actions were anything but the best, he said that the admiral was act- ing with the utmost wisdom. Express- ing happiness over the rescue of the American people, at Nanking, he said that Rear Admiral H. H. Hough was entitled to a great deal of credit for it. Announcing that the three light cruisers, Richmond, Marblehead and Cincinnati, now on their way to Shang- land 1,000 sailors if needed, Secretary Wilbur said that the first two were expected to arrive at Shanghai April’ 3, and the Cincinnati April 5, the lat- | ter running slower because of fuel | shortage. This will make a force of 4,750 sailors and marines available for any place that Admiral Williams wants | to send them within his jurisdiction. | Although Maj. . Summerall’s presence at yesterday's conference gave | rise to speculation rege the pos- } sible part the army would play in the affair, it was explained that employ- | ment of any other troops but marines and sailors in a situation like the pres- ent has an entirely di & aspe porary purpose. hai from Honolulu, will be able to} Doctors Are Killed ct | from a standpotnt of international law, the use of marines serving a tem- / Foochow, China, March 26 (By A.

SENATE NOMINATION IS SEEN FOR SPEAKER Possibility of Candidacy Em- barrassing to Bruce; Fea- ture of Session. (From a Staff Correspondent.) Annapolis, Md., March 26.—The Maryland general asSembly will adjourn @ week from tomorrow with any num- ber of members ready for higher honors. The honors available are not so many, however, and there will have to be considerable paring in the ranks of those who think they are ready to graduate from the State political schodl. Many obviously will have to take further training in the assembly whether they need it or not, Main interest revolves around Gov. Ritchie's presidential possibilities and the prospects of an opponent. to Sena- tor Bruce in the senatorial campaign next year. Supporters of the governor believe that the session of the assembly will show a record which will strengthen the claim that he is a business man and a liberal; their idea of an excel- lent combination. The governor has been in the saddle from the beginning of the session and as a result the ad- ministration program will be put through virtually without change. Oyster Industry Aided. The outstanding piece of legislation, already enacted, is designed to conserve the State's oyster industry. The con- servation commissioner is authorized to zone the oyster beds and to prevent working of them until they can be re- bedded, License fees have been in- creased so as to yield about $150,000 a year for the next three or four years which it is estimated will be sufficient to improve the bases of diminished oyster fields. Next to this legislation is that de- signed to pave the State’s lateral roads which has already been passed. It pro- vides for an increase in the gasoline tax to 3% cents. The House is ex- pected to act this week on another measure further increasing this tax by one-half cent, the revenue to be used in eliminating all grade crossings in the State. The railroads are to bear half the expense. Final passage is also expected to be effected this week of the budget carry- ing approximately $22,000,000 and on which the tax rate will be lowered from 27 cents to around 25 cents. The gov- ernor’s friends point out that when he took office the rate was around 37 cents. These three phases of the adminis- tration program, successfully accom- plished, will advance the governor, as his supporters see it, as a business man of no mean capahiilities. Coupled with this are his liberal beliefs and States’ rights stand. Invites Presidential Lightning. Presidential makers, of course, will be interested in the record of the gov- ernor’s legislature, it is* pointed out, and when they get to looking around, his friends think they will be able to show something pleasing to the eye. The four months’ session has reveal- ed Speaker E. Brooke Lee, of Montgom- ery county, as the most likely oppo- nent to Senator Bruce. There seems to be little doubt now that Lee’s aspira- tions contemplate the direct rottte to the United States Senate, where his father once held a seat, and not b way of the House of Representatives. Certainly, it is pointed out, the way has been well paved for him so far. As speaker of the Maryland house he has been charged with getting the ad- ministration’s program through and he has all but done it. In another week, in fact, there seems to be but little doubt but that he will have done all of it. Now, if he decides to make the 1928 race against Senator Bruce, the thing first to be done is to grab off the or- ganization support. It remains to be seen what will be the attitude of Goy. Ritchie, who has the organization in hand now. ° Suspicions of Bruce. There, are many | dyed-in-the-wool Democrats who think Senator Bruce has a lot of Republican leanings. But his fight for the reténtion of the individ- uality of the Maryland Free State can not be attacked. Gov, Ritchie thinks highly of Maj. Lee. He has been responsible for the easy path which Maj. Lee has trod thus far. He placed him in the speaker's chair. ? But Senator Bruce, has done good work in advertising Gov. Ritchie as a presidential possibility. The nominee must be either the governor or Gov. Smith, of New York, or at least one of their kind, the senator has frequently said. The senator has given the impres- sion, however, that what he wants is a wet, and that it does not necessarily have to be Gov. Ritchie. But this in- definite attitude has done the Maryland governor no harm. Admittedly, it would be right fast work oh the part of Maj. Lee if he should go right out for the senatorial toes He only came to the legislature this session, but he was given a seat with a cushion right off the reel. Getting away from the field of poli- tics, the bill creating the Montgomery county National Capital park and plan- ning commission is the most important measure, from the standpoint of the District, to be acted upon during the final week. It vides for an appropri- ation of $100 with which the com- mission may buy park areas to con- form with the park plans of the Dis- trict. It has already passed the senate and is expected to pass the house, Jeffers to Address _ Reserve Association Representative Lamar Jeffers, of Ala- Eustis, Shot When Garbed © As Convict, Is Recovering Morton Corcoran Eustis, a junior at Harvard university, son of Mrs. William Corcoran Eustis, 1500 Rhode Island avenue northwest, who was wounded in the arm by a policeman during an automobile chase through the streets of Cambridge early yesterday as the result of an innocent prank, will be able to leave the hospital today, accord- ing to word received by Mrs. Eustis last night before departing for the college town. Eustis, attired in a convict costume, and three companions, were motori from a mask ball at the Hasty Pudding club. Passing a policeman, it was re- ported, someone said “stick ‘em up,” and displayed a shiny object. Com- mandeering a passing automobile after catching a fleeting glimpse of the con- vict-attired man, the policeman gave chase. Swinging from the commandeered car to the vehicle occupied by Eustis, the revolver held by the patrolman acci- dentally exploded and the bullet lodged in the student’s arm. Investigation re- vealed that the questionable “shiny object” proved to be a toy pistol. After questioning, the companions of Eustis were. released and he was ‘taken to a hospital]. Eustis is the grandson of W. W. Cor- ng | coran, founder of the famous art gal- lery, Mrs. Corcoran Eustis, his mother, is socially prominent in this city, and his father, William Corcoran Eustis, was chairman of the inaugural committee ‘for Woodrow Wilson.

Bean said he had known for years. The courtesy displayed by Sinclair at the time was testified to by Policemen R. Eggleston, W. J. Kearns, R. S. Bryant and A. D. Mans- field. .

How many scholars have worked their lives out ag: sighed, “If only I had the money finish that line of research,” * Through the benefits of the Guggen- eim fund, which was created by for- mer Senator and Mrs. Guggenheim as a fnemorial for a son, fellowships are iven to scholars and artists who have emonstrated unusual capacity for reductive scholarship or unusual crea- ve ability that they may pursue the particular line of study in which they are interested for a year unhampered by the demands on their intellect that The usual mount given in the scholarship is | 2,500, but this rule is flexible and un- usual situations are taken care of. Two Washington Men Honored. * Hidden behind the bare announce- pent that two Washington men have en awarded fellowship grants is ro- ance. One will continue with the tudies that are dear to his heart and to the other will be given an oppor- tunity to pass’ a whole year in the study of the subject that is of deep in- ferest to him. * Perhaps to many the opportunity to épend another year studying the “ab- sorption spectra of aniline dyes” wouid beem a far-away thing from the heart’s desire. But Dr. Wallate Reed Brode, jate of the United States bureau of standards and now doing that very hing in Zurich, Switzerland, is thor- oughly wrapped up in that subject. » Df. Brode is a member of a scien- tifically inclined family. Since he first was able to understand he has been coos with science. His father s professor of biology at Whitman col- fege, Walla Walla, Wash. He and his two brothers are scientists. They are triplets. Which may or may not ex- om their mutual taste for science. One of the brothers, Robert B. Brode, who is now doing research work in physics at Princeton, also received a Guggenheim award. He passed two wears of study abroad. Another @rother, Malcolm, is working for his fegree in the biology department at ithe University of Chicago. The three avere born 27 years ago at Walla Walla. , Dr. Brode received his D. S. at Whit- man college in 1921. He won his Ph. D. at the University of Illinois in 1922. On July 16, 1923, he obtained an ap- pointment to the bureau of standards ms a chemist and was assigned to the Study of aniline dyes, which is a pet hobby for kim. He has been intensely tinterested in aniline dyes for nearly six years. ; Bride Aids in Résearch Work. ¢ While he was employed at the bureau the met Miss Mildred Hooker, of Hard- wick, Vt., also an employe.

He has passed considerable ‘time at Leipzig, Germany, where he ‘had many facilities for his studies. After the cost of providing for a wife and two children has been deduct- ed from the salary of an associate pro- ‘fessor, there isn’t an enormous amount ‘left for the prosecution of one’s kobby. ,With the Guggenheimer award, how- ever, Dr. Richard J. Purcell, associate professor in history and government at Catholic university, can for at least a fyear pursue his hobby of the study of irish immigration without the worries ‘of making money intruding. Pian Book on Immigration. Dr. Purcell has been interested: in the study of British immigration for some years. He has been awarded a ‘year’s residence in England and ‘Ire- land to study Irish immigration to the \ United States since 1790 to complete the collection of material for a book (on that subject which he is writing. '» Dr. Purcell was born in Minneapolis and was educated in the public schools of that city. He received his A. B. ‘degree in 1910 and his M. A. in 1911 ‘at the University of Minnesota. Later ‘he studied in the British museum, Bodlein and the Record office at Lon- don He was a fellow and’ assistant in ary in Yale Graduate school from .1912 to 1916. ; -He received the Addison Porter prize ‘for the best dissertation of the year ,®nd for general scholarship in the last ‘year of his stay at Yale.

In the following year he received the tsustin ‘Winsor prize which is awarded ‘every two years by the American His- , torical association for the best manu- eg on some historical subject. This published. as “Connecticut in “Transition” in 1918. After receiving his doctor's . degree, ‘Dr. Purcell was wes appointed: ‘by the late ‘Archbishop Ireland to take of in history and government at St. college, St. Paul, Minn., where -remained from 1916 to 1920, when was appointed an instructor at the/ university.

S._Does Not Sustain Asser- tions of Alarming Increase in Delinquency. — ior 4 PROBLEM STILL SERIOUS Statistics do not sustain the asser- tions frequently made that juvenile delinquency is increasing in an alarm- ing degree, the children’s bureau of the Department of Labor announced yesterday. . As the result. of a survey by the bureau, it has been found playgrounds are an important factor is keeping juvenile delinquency at a minimum, it was said. Despite the fact figures show youthful crime is not increasing by any means as rapifly as is generally believed, it was admitted it is suffi- ciently serious to justify scientific study. For that reason the bureau is in- vestigating the problem. Playgrounds and recreational facilities for young and older children are highly essential, it has been concluded. The bureau believes a public playground should be within a half-mile of every home. Ath- letic fields, camp sites and parks for picnics, hikes, and nature study, or- ganized recreational movements spon- sored by national organizations, clubs, churches, and settlements, and library service for children are other measures which the bureau believes effective in preventing delinquency.

SOON TO BE PLACED ON VIEW IN MUSEUM. Bones to Be Mounted After Three Years Used in Taking Them From Stone. SPECIMEN T0 BE BIGGEST EXHIBITED IN CAPITAL Missing Parts Are Supplied by Plaster Copies of One in Pittsburgh. The giant dinosaur skeleton, on which preparators of the division of vertebrae paleontology of the National museum have been working tediously for three years, will soon be ready for | mounting in the hall in which the bones of prehistoric reptiles are ex- hibited, it was announced yesterday by C. W. Gilmore, curator Bas the divi- sion. The great skeleton will be the out- standing exhibit in the hall, and will surmount and outreach all the others. The mounted bones of terrible mon- sters now in the hall are enough to fill | one with awe upon entering it. But ‘the dinosaur will make these aprear as pigmies. ; There is one probienk which those in | charge of the division must solve: in connection with tne mounting, and that is where it will be placed, and the manner of the mounting. The dinosaur naturally will take up a great | deal of room, and will necessitate radi- | cal changes in the. present positions of several of the monsters of the hall. Mounting Called Tedious Task. The mounting is a tedious matter, and will require a great deal of time, as well as a great deal of hard work. Mr. Gilmore,says an iron frame will have to be constructed on which to erect properly and securely the heavy and massive pieces of the skeleton. The construction of this frame will re- quire extensive planing and care. It will be necessary to make the frame as inconspicuous as possible, and at the same time to make it ade- ua one petrified skeleton will welgh several tons, it is said. It will extend more than 80 feet in length, and will stand 15 feet high at the hips. The skeleton is not altogether complete, and the missing- parts will be supplied with plaster cast copies. The parts that are missing are the neck and head, the front forefeet and the ribs of one side. The skeleton of a similar animal is on exhibition in th@ Carnegie museum, Pittsburgh, Pa.,; and the copies, it is said, will be made from that skeleton. Although the pieces will be painted to give them‘a color in harmony with the ekeleton., proper, they may. be easily distinguished from the genuine bones, it is said. Skeleton Found in Utah. The skeleton fossil was taken from the deposits of the dinosaur Nna- © f$nal monument, embracing a_ plot about 80 acres in expanse, reserved by the government, in northeast Utah. These deposits were thoroughly ex- ploited by the Carnegie museum of Pittsburgh during a period of thirteen years. At the expiration of ‘this time, the Carnegie museum abandoned the deposits and acquainted the National museum of the existence there of the dinosaur skeleton. Scientists of the National museum put their picks to work, and three years ago the last piece of sandstone rock in which the pieces of the skele- ton were imbedded was unloaded at the museum here The total weight of the rocks and the engaged pieces of the skeleton was 50,000 pounds. Since that time, the prsparation of the huge skeleton has been one of the major employments of the division. of vertebrae paleontology. Three men, N. H. Boss and T. J. Horne, preparators, and J. M. Barrett, assistant preparator, have been .at work on it. A great amount of detail work has heen necessary, chief of which has been the careful removal of the rock from the pieces of skeleton. _ . The reason the skeletons was not found complete, Mr. Gilmore said, was that e deposits were formed by an obetr ion possibly a sandbar, in some cient river, which swept: the bones down by the force of its cur- ront, until the obstruction blocked *them. This, at least, is the best avail- able explanation for the accumulation. The waters of the river have ceased to flow. And gradually, through count- less ages, the bones have been petri- fied by the replacement of the cells with mineral substances. The sandstone rock in which the fossil was found is of coarse, irregular texture, as if deposited by a swift water current, and this gives credit to the theory advanced. In Diplodocus Class. The dinosaur, whose enormous bulk required such a frame of bones for its support, was specifically a “diplodocus,” Mr. Gilmore said. There were many kinds of dinosaurs, and they comprised a wide range of sizes. The diplodocus, or “double-raftered” dinosaur, receiv- Jag his name from the peculiar forma- lion of his bones, was of the larger tpecies. He was not, however, the largest, for some measured more than 4100 feet long. This huge fellow padded along the ver swamps of northern Utah untold Seitons of years ago, feeding on the lush river grasses and reeds, which lid not require much chewing, as evi- enced by his small, almost insignifi- cant teeth. He was almost all bulk, and needing but little brains, naturally was not oversupplied in this respect. How far from his dim consciousness . Was anyth like a conception of his final destiny, which will find him, in a comparatively insignificant space of time more, intelligently mounted in the National museum, of Washington, for the instruction of men. _ British Ask Duncan % To Take Over Defense | ae ae aye Ki 1 Hest sited é; eae SRE ESE Le « 6 LE: BONES OF 1 DiFLopocus TO BHO ETT a ree ew . , re ar 20S" eat 9 7 2a ee . ee 7) 60) a .

INCORPORATION aL ASSAILED BY JESSE NNalion Would Cause the Loss of $120,000 Road Aid, Delegate Declares. - SCHOOL DATA SHOWS ~ DEFICIT TO. BE $396,000 |Woman Resident of ‘Columbia Station Is Named Regis- trar of Precinct. ARLINGTON COUNTY, BUREAU OF THE POST, Tel. Clar. , 509. Clarendon, Va. Charles T. Jesse, member of the house of delegates from Arlington county, who three years. ago was elected on a platform. opposed to the incorporation of Arlington county, in a‘statement is- sued: last’ night declared that any at- tempt to have passed a bill providing for an enabling act tending to in- corporate Arlingtoh county would be opposed by him, and that he would use all his influence in the house of delegates to defeat the bill. “The propaganda started in Arling- ton county is going to have the effect of defeating the constitutional amend- ment just passed, which will come up for a vote of the people this fall. This amendment will give to the people of Arlington county the same rights as cities and towns now have as to as- sessing abutting property for sewer and water. With the adoption of this amendment laws can be.enacted which will give to the beard of supervisors the same powers now enjoyed by city councils,” -he said. © “Incorporation of Arlington county as a city at this time will set us back 20 years. With our present bonded in- debtedhess, and more staring us in the face to complete the water system, I can see no way.in which our revenues can be replaced, Incorporate Arlington county and she will lose more than $120,000 in State aid for roads, which includes the gasoline tax, and the main- tenance of these roads would fall upon the county. “The Lee: boulevard approach to’ the -new Memorial bridge would be made an impossibility. I am informed that the State contemplates building this road in the near future. If it is to be con- structed by the county, which would be necessary should it become incor- porated, it would. be generations be- fore it could be built.” “By incorporation several new offices would be created, which would increase the expense. ‘*The annexing of part of our terri- tory by Alexandria is a bugaboo which originated in the minds of a few politicians on Capitol Hill, of whom L. C. McNemar is the mouthpiece. The only reason assigned by McNemar is that we need a change,” Jesse stated. In conclusion Jésse.said “the ques- tion of submitting to the people of Arlington county as to whether they should incorporate.at this time, con- sidering the loss we would sustain with no benefits to offset them is just about as sensible as asking the people to de- cide by referendum whether we should have boy children considered girls.” Commonwealth’s Attorney William C. Gloth, when asked for a statement as to whether he was in favor of incor- poration, said that he “was opposed to it and would do everything he could ‘to aid in its defeat.” Harry R. Thomas, judge of the police court, stated that he was “absolutely opposed to the enactmefit of the pro- posed bill to allow. the peopie to. vote on whether they wished incorporation at -this-time,” and that he was “op- sed to any movement to jam such a bill through the special session of the legislature in view of the fact there is to be an election for county offices this fall.” Sheriff. Howard B. Fields, a life-long resident of Arlington county, said that he was “opposed. to any movement looking to the incorporation of Ar- lington county. “The loss of more than $120,000 in State aid for roads would do more to retard. the development of Arlington county than any other one thing. The statements going around that incorpo- ration would reduce the number of of- ficers is a farce, it would increase them,” he stated. L..C. McNemer, chairman of -the bet- ter government commission, comment- ing on the position taken by Delegate Jesse, and other county officials, stated that “every proposition of these gen- tlemen in opposition to incorporation was investigated and considered “at length before the better government commission, which is composed of leading business men and civic leaders, and rejected for the reason that the present conditions in Arlington county are deemed to be such as to render im- mediate iricorporation imperative.” McNemar further said that “any statement of any official of the county tothe effect that he is opposed to the people having the opportunity of deter- mining the question of whether the county shall be incorporated indicates that that official does not understand or comprehend the fact that he is a servant of the people and not the dic- tator of what they shall do. “It must be assumed that all the of- ficials of the county opposed to our securing the enactment of a law at this session of the general assembly au- thorizing the people to determine the question of incorporation are in favor of Alexandria annexing as much of the territory of Arlington county as they see fit, and at such time as ee de- sire.” The most comprehensive report ever submitted by the Arlington county school board, which was compiled by a. special committee composed of Sid- ney B. Hall, William K. Smithy and E. E. Windes; covering a period from 1910 and including the school year of 1926, was made public last night by County Superintendent Fletcher Kemp. The report cites that the school board, owing to the increased cost of mate- rials and land values met in the recent school building program, conceded to be the greatest of any county in the State, faces a deficit of $396,000 | further states that the purposes under the irginia.

Meanwhile, Mr. and Mrs. Ridgeway and their young baby, the only remaining child, are making their home with a brother, Norman Ridgeway. The murderer of the two children and assault of their mother was com- mitted, it is alleged, by Louis Boersig. of Alexandria, confined in the jail at Winchester, having been indicted by a Fairfax county grand jury. An attempt is being made by Boersig’s counsel, Frederick L. Flynn and Lindsey Carne, to. obtain a change of venue, and the application will be argued before Judge Samuel G. Brent at Fairfax courthouse tomorrow. ‘ Attorney Flynn is fearful of an at- tempt at mob violence should his client be brought to Fairfax, where feeling against him is said to be intense. Staff Sergt. Daniel Hensley, U. S. A., instructor of the Virginia na- tional Guard, stationed here, has issued instructions to members of the local company,. known as the Alexandria light infantry, which has been ordered disbanded by the adjutant general of Virginia, to turn in all government property in their possession, at the armory, which will be open tomorrow and Tuesday evenings to receive it. According to Sergt. Hensley, there is a considerable shortage of property, among the most important items being automatic pistols and olive drab blan- kets. The sergeant has also requested that any member of the company, or citizen of Alexandria, who knows of the location of any of the property of the company, notify him, or have the property turned in. It is understood the designation of the local company, which is officially Company M (machine gun), 116th in- fantry, Virginia national guard, is to be transferred to Roanoke, and that a request will be made to have a rifle company organized in Alexandria Capt. George H. Rice is in command of the company, and Sergt. Hensley has been on duty here as the regular army instructor for several years. The body of Clayton Delaney Duty, 23 years old, who died in Baltimore hospital on Friday from injuries re- ceived on Thursciy when he fell through the skylight of fire engine house No. 3, in that city, was brought to this city yesterday and taken to the home of R.

W ELECTRLIL ol HOR STARTED IN SCHODL Practical Training Is Provided for Pupils in Francis Junior High. EXPERIMENT DECLARED PROVING SUCCESSFUL Object Explained as Part of Plan to Guide Colored Boys in Industry. A new venture in undergraduate vocational training has been intro- duced in the Washington public school system with the inclusion of courses in practical electricity in the curricu- lum of the new Francis Junior High school, Garnet C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent of schools, divisions 10 to 13, has just made known. The course was instituted with the opening of the school a month ago, and already has passed through the experimental stage to successful opera- tion. Equipped with individual work benches, stone covered laboratory tables for group work and suitable electrical apparatus and tools, the shop is fitted along the most modern lines. According to R. L. Mattingly, prin- cipal of the school, the students have ween started upon the simpler shop operations, and gradually will be brought to a knowledge of the con- struction of the essential electrical ma- chines of industry, and a skill in their operation and control. Ultimate Object of Course. In addition to training the student to handle more efficiently the electri- cally operated machines in the other technical shops of the school, the electrical shop is designed to acquaint him with the vocational possibilities of the electrical industry, and to lay & practical foundation for a more ap- preciative study of electricity and its uses in the general science courses of the school. It is thought that the course will give rise to a more definite shop plan for boys in the junior high schools. As they pass through the seventh and eighth grades, students now may spend &@ semester in four distinct shops, typifying successively the electrical, the woodworking, the metal working and the printing and publishing industries. On reaching the ninth grade they may elect a major course in the «ag of their preference. Bricklaying Also Taught. Inauguration of the electrical course is in pursuance of a policy followed in the colored schools, designed to pre- pare students for thelr chosen work on high school graduation. For example, 22 boys in the Phelps Vocational school are reteiving instruction in bricklaying, while 35 men attend the night class. The school has been able in past instances to obtain employ- ment for graduates of the three-year course. Sixty students taking a night course in house construction at the Burrville school, have organized a cor- poration in connection with the course, and are building their own homes. Professional builders instruct them in several processes, from the foundation of the home, through construction of the roof. The entire vocational move- ment in the colored schools is in charge of L. L. Perry, assistant superin- tendent in charge of special activities, night schools and vocations. Plans for Welfare Meeting to Be Laid Plans for the world welfare confer- ence to be held here May 3 to May 8 under auspices of the Woman's Uni- versal alliance will be discussed at a meeting tomorrow afternoon at 3 o’clock in the Carlton hotel. The meeting will be followed by a tea. The meeting is expected to bring out @ comparative analysis of the advance- ment of women’s work all over the world, particularly in welfare, civic af- fairs and government. Methods of de- veloping mutual understanding and furthering cooperation for general good will be formulated. Miss Lavezzo Tinie Holy Rosary Group Miss Regina Lavezzo, 434 Massachu-. setts avenue northwest, has been in- Stalled as president of the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin, of the Holy Rosary parish succeeding Miss Josephine Mes- sina. Other officers are Miss Rose Fratantuono, vice president;. Miss Carolyn Marascio, secretary, and Miss Lucy Leone, treasurer. The sodality is under .the spiritual directorship of Sister Mary Mercedes, 8. N. D., of Trinity college.

JARDINE TO WELCOME DAYMEN 3 DELEGATES 250 Visitors Are Expected to Be in City on April 26 for Conferences. FEDERATION AIM PRAISED Secretary of Agriculture William M. Jardine will welcome 250 dairymen, representing the dairy industry gener- ally throughout the country, when the American Dairy Federation meets here April 26, it was announced yesterday. In accepting the invitation to extend a welcome to the dairymen, Secretary Jardine praised the work of the federa- tion, and the service which it is rend- ering to the industry and to the De- partment of Agriculture. One purpose of the visit is to permit the dairymen to inspect the depart- ment’s dairy section, and familiarize themselves with its activities. Another purpose*will-be to enable the heads of bureaus and divisions, and their staff members, to learn at first hand the problems confronting the industry. Dr. C. W. Larson, chief of the bureau of dairy industry, and Lloyd S. Tenny, chief of the bureau of agricultural eco- nomics, will cooperate with the federa- tion in arranging the program. Chaplain to: Explain Purposes of Toc-H The Rev. Hugh F. Sawbridge, chap- lain of Toc-H in Leicester, England, will address local members of the or- ganization at a meeting in the home of Mrs. K. V. H. Wylie, 1205 Thomas circle, at 5:15 o’clock tomorrow after- noon. Mr. Sawbridge will explain the pur- poses and ideals of Toc-H, which has attained wide popularity in England, the Prince of Wales being a member. 2 TT ARETE ADR ST Peat 08 «on 0 A Striking Type!

. PROTEST WE WAVE-LENGTH BAND Representatives to Appear Be- fore U. S. Commission at Tuesday’s Meeting. LAN WOULD INCLUDE BELOW 200 METERS Vianufacturers May Join in Fight to Protect Higher- Powered Sets. Representatives of amateur broad- casters will appear before the new Fed- ‘ral radio commission at its initial wearing Tuesday morning to protest wainst the commission’s proposal to viden the broadcasting band to in- ‘lude wave lengths used by them as neans of solving the ‘problem of radio congestion. The initial hearmg, which will be ‘he first. of a series of eight hearings in which’ the commission will en- deavor to arrange.the confused mass of radio problems into some semblance of order, will be devoted exclusively to the problem of widening the broad- casting band, that is, increasing the range of wave lengths used by stations. Virtually every phase of the radio industry will be represented at the hearing, as at all the hearings. The (-#nmission so far has decided nothing, Col. John F. Dillon, member of the commission said yesterday, but will hear all sides, and at the conclusion will attempt to adjust the various problems. according to the whole pros- pect of the matter thus afforded. At the first press conference, the commission presented two methods for solving the present congestion which will be given major consideration. The first was widening the broadcasting band, ‘and the second, reducing fre- quency separation. The widening of the band would by necessity, it is explained, encroach upon the wave lengths used by the amateurs. The band at present ranges from 200 meters to 550 meters. To widen the band by increasing it would likely con- flict with SOS calls, therefore .it would be necessary to widen the band by in- cluding wave lengths below 200 meters. H. A. Bellows, member of the commis- Sion, said that the commission was considering widening the band by in- cluding wave lengths from 150 to 200 meters. This is the peculiar band which heretofore has been the exclu- sive. property of the amateurs, and Mr, Bellows said that he expected such usurpation would, if decided upon, cause @ loud complaint from the ama- teur quarter. He eéxpressed regret that this ap- peared as one of the commission’s re- courses, since, he said, the amateurs have done much toward the develop- ment of radio and should be encour- aged to further achievements. However, it developed that the ama- teurs will not be alone .in protesting against the inclusion of shorter wave lengths in the regular broadcasting program, since there are few radio sets now which without adjustment will receive below 200 meters. The manu- facturers therefore may side with the amateurs. Nevertheless, it was pointed out that the adjustment would be in- expensive, necessitating only a rear- rangement of the coils. Listeners-In Warned Of Florida Land Talks Warning radio listeners-in of “relcad- ing” schemes practiced by fake Fiorida real estate promoters, said to be flour- ishing in Washington because of the lack. of “blue sky” legislation, Louis Rothschild, director of the Washington better business bureau, last night vnc” lined the activities of his office in an address over station WMAL. The latest scheme, he said, takes ac- vantage of dissatisfied Florida inves- tors, who are Icd on to further unfortu- nate real estate entanglements. ‘Boiler House” methods, and the “Free Lot Scheme,” also were discussed in detail by Rothschild, who urged prospective investors to investigate before they pur- chase stock. Colored Players’ * To Give Passion Play For their annual spring production, the Council Review Piayers, an. af- fillated group of the Dunbar com- munity center, will stage for the first time in this city, on Tuesday eveniuig, ‘the passion play, “On the Slopes of Calvary,” by Aurelio Palmieri, at the Armstrong high school auditorium. The all-colored cast has been se- lected from the best talent representing various dramatic organizations under direction of Barrington Guy. Francis Spriggs is manager. Man, 81, Is Injured When Struck by Auto Solomon 8S. Munch, 81 years old, 248 Third street northeast, was injured yes- terday when he was knocked down by an automobile driven, police reported, by Charles Barrick, of Cottage City, Md. Munch was taken to Casualty hospital in Barrick’s car suffering from lacera- tions on the hands and contusions and abrasions on the legs. Acco to police, Barrick was driv- ing on North Capitol street and when e reached the intersection of E street na was forced to swerve his car sud- denly to avoid colliding with a taxicab. The automobile mounted the eidewalk, | striking Munch, 3,796 ARMY OFFICERS COME UP FROM RANKS Records of 11,814 officers of the regu- lar army, d that 3,796 ped. on en- listed service prior to obtaining com missions, bears out the Napoleonic leg te’s knapsack : hours all the foul, Halts Giving of Opera Columbia, 8S.

A writ of attachment on the re- parties at Daytona Beach, Fila. an wken the management of the theater here declined to pay the company, it Trefused to go on with the evening’s bill. Acting Postmasters’ Retirement Explained Application of the retirement act to acting postmasters was explained yes- terday by civil service commission offi- cilals. Following a recent decision of Comptroller General McCarl, holding ed to positions of acting paymasters, subject to provisions of the retirement law, the commission announced that word from the comptroller general to Secretary of the Interior Work, stated that acting postmasters promoted, ap- pointed or transferred from classified positions, come within terms of the act. Their compensation will be subject to 314 per cent deductions for retirement. WIMAL AGAIN MAY USE HOOK-UP WITH NEW YORK Expériment With Independent Station Proves a Success; Carried Speech of Borah. APPARATUS WAS ON TRUCK Reports from New York indicating the success of the radio hookup be- tween Station WMAL, in Washington, and Station WRNY, in New York city, Friday night, are said to foreshadow further interconnection between this Washington station and such inde- pendent stations in New York city as WRNY. It was more or less of an ex- periment all around, inasmuch as it was the t time WMAL, which is a locally owned’ station, has ever been linked with New York. Also it was the first connection with the Capital of ‘WRNY, notwithstanding the fact that the latter has been on the air for several years. In the old days here both WCAP and WRC used to be regularly heoked up with New York, but since the consoli- dation of the two stations, WRC has had the field to itself. A specit announcer, Stephen Czukor, was sent from New York by WRNY for the try out. William T. Pierson did the announcing for WMAL. The joint broadcasting began about 9 o’clock, with the speech o: Senator Borah, and was carried through without a hitch until the concluding number by Anna Case, the Metropolitan Opera. House prima donna at 11:15 o’clock. By means of a truck carrying amplifi- cation apparatus, which was rigged up in De Sales street, the program was re- layed by wire to the main central of the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co., thence over A. T. & T. telephone wires, via Baltimore and Phi'adelphia, ‘directly into the broadcasting studios of WRNY, located at the Hotel Roose- velt, New York city. WRNY at the present time is broad- casting on 500 watts power, on a wave length of 373.8 meters. It is owned by H. & S. Gernsback and, because of its location, is said to have one of the largest audiences in the metropolitan district, Incidentally, this is the station which is experimenting with the underground aerial for broadcasting purposes, which is of interest to Washington listeners, inasmuch as the device is being devel- oped by Dr. J. Harris Rogers, at Hy- attsville. If successful in this effort, WRNY will probably be the first im- = program station to bury its aerial. GAUSS, FEVERISH GHILD 1S BILIQUS UR GONOTIPATED Look, Mother!

‘aie jt inom sotensiiiii iy iON TO SET Court Denies Petition to Have i. Entry of Thirteen-Year Term Corrected. 4 WAS CONVICTED IN DEATH | @oseph Y. Saunders, inmate of the Pederal prison at Atlanta, who was committed May 3, 1919, to serve thir- teen years for manslaughter, will have te'tremain there eight months longer in s@rving this sentence than he would have if he had been sentenced to serve the maximum penalty of fifteen years. ‘The Court cf Appeals yesterday de- nied Saunders’ petition for a writ of mandainus against Chief Justice Walter I-McCoy, of the District Supreme court, by which Ssunders sought to have en- try of his sentence corrected. Under the fifteen-year-sentence Saun- ders would have to serve but ten years and twenty-five days provided he did not forfeit the usual allowance of time off for good behavior. Under the thirteen year sentence he will have to serve ten years, elght months and twenty-five days, including time off for good be- bavior. When Saunders was sentenced the court made an allowance of two years fot the time the accused passed in jail hero awaiting disposition of his case No time off for good behavior was al- lowed for the time passed in jail. This 1s where the eight months extra time comesin. The sentence imposed upon Saunders actually dates back to May 3, 1917, the date of which he was com- mitted to jail to await trial. The al- lowance for good behavior is ten days per month for sentences of ten years or over. When Saunders Icft here to. go to prison on May 3, 1919, he had but thir- teen years to serve.

RENTS-AND SANITATION INCLUDED IN REPORTS Data to Be Similar to That in Woofter’s Recent Studies in Other Cities. William H. Jones, Howard university professor in sociology, assisted by 35 graduate students, is making 4a. sur- vey of housing conditions of negroes in the District of Columbia, it was an- nounced yesterday by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary of the joint commit- tee on race relations of the Washing- ton Federation of Churches. The sur- vey will include the Northwest and Southwest sections of Washington, in which three-fourths of the negro popu- lation reside. Workers have already made more than 1,000 reports, covering street, alley, sidewalk and yard conditions, garbage disposal and sanitation. Their reports on buildings occupied’ include mate- rial; stories, basement condition, venti- lation, halls and stairs, entrances, plumbing, rooms, windows, lighting sys- tems, heating, porches, repairs and = eral conditions. Subjects for Special Report. A special report will cover also in- ternal organization of the residence, in- cluding occupants, lodgers, rents, as- sessed valuations and attitudes toward the community. A report based on Mthese schedules will be completed by next spring and will be published by the Federation of Churches, covering the same data as Woofter’s recent re- port on negro housing conditions in American cities, which did not include Washington. Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, canon of th. National cathedral, is chairman of the race relations committee. Other members, representing various social organizations and community agencies, include the Rev. Samuel Judson Porter, tne Rev. D. Butler Pratt, John R. Haw- kins, Garnet C. Wilkinson, Clarence As- pinwall, Dr. W. Sinclair Bowen, William Knowles Cooper, the Rev. Robert W. Brooks, the Rev. J. U. King, the Rev. J. Milton Waldron, Mist Nannie H. Bur- roughs, Mgrs. Martha A. McAdoo, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, mrs. Archibald Hopkins, Mrs. William Adams Slade and Mrs. H. E. Woolever. Local Committee Organized. The local interracial -ommittee was organized at the suggestion of the com- mittee on interracial cooperation, with headquarters in Atlanta. This commit- t - has already organized more than 1,000 local committees, especially in the Southern part of the countr~ and in the border States. a Masons to Attend Church Services.

Alia ast ch at Saadiaee sai i ‘plat bie * bee PO Nt, NS Super Purity, in Sh sha 3 to Featare Wa ter Pla nt 185, 000, 000 Gallons of a ee ‘aaik Will be Avail- .. able Daily, if Needed, When System. Begins Operation in June. In June, Washingtonians will be as-, sured of water of highest purity with- out fear of shortage. By that time the new filtration plant and additional | supply system will be in operation and the Capital will have the best plant that scientific engineering provides for insurance against disease. With the new plant in operation and the old one, now being rebuilt, a sup- ply of water with a margin of safety that will extend 173 years is assured, and the present filtration plant at Mc- Millan park, south of Soldiers’ home, will be kept in commission as a rein- forcement. Its supply will be used chiefly for the gravity-supplied area in the business districts and @ small adja- cent area. The supply from the new filter plant at Conduit road and the District line will supply most of the residential dis- tricts and Arlington county, which will join the mains at Chain bridge. Tests of water are arranged for every hour that it flows in and out of the filterers. A group of chemists also will examine it as to purity whem,it flows into the distributing reservoir under the parking around the new plant. In addition, frequent purity tests will be made of it as it comes from taps in the consuming districts to ascertain that it gathers no more germs after it leaves the’ plant. From 80,000,000 to 100,000,000 gallons of water will be supplied daily by the hew plant, and the combined output of the two plants will be approximately 185,000,000 gallons, need for all of which will not become real: until 1995, according to estimates. A conduit adjoining the old: one has been com pleted and in use for several months... The old one is now being drained and repaired. These conduits are cross-connected in sections so that in case any section may have to be cut off for repairs the remaining portion can be used, or in case a section in each should fail, the water can be sent around the points of stoppage. The filtration plant at Conduit road'|’ and the District line is in an immense brick building below the Dalecarlia reservoir, where will be located the of- fices of the water works and chemical |" laboratories for the constant tests. A large tower will contain tanks of chlor- ine and alum syrup—the first for puri- fying the water, the second for coagu- lating it. Flowing from the Dalecarlia receiving reservoir, into which the two large con- | duits deposit their supply, the water passes under the tower and receives the purifying process. From there it goes into mixing basins or baffle plates, which stir it up and mix the purifying materials. After being mixed, it passes into one of two coagulating basins to the east of the building, where it remains from three to six hours. The alum gathers the dirt and suspended matter from it, making a jelly of the collection and precipitating it to the bottom of the basins. From the’ coagulating basins, the water passes back to 20 large filters in the building and drains through lay- ers Of sand and gravel which remove any remaining suspended matter, and then into the coNeneS distributing reservoir, Electrically driven pumps then will sund it to the first, second, third and fourth high reservoirs, three of which have been completed, the remaining one to be built from funds provided by. pending legislation. The filterers are under the floor of a large white room in the rear-of. the building and they will be cleaned auto- matically daily. A flow of water is sent under pressure back through the sand and gravel layers in the cleaning process, and this will take all mud from the top, the cleaning water being dumped by ik lines in the river near- ie - ; by. ‘n the old plant, men with shovels had to clean the top layer into hoppers} which led to pipe lines. The interior of the new plant is constructed entirely of tiling and white stone, even the pump room where six motor-driven pumps are arranged, two for each line and two for reserve. Elec- tric pqwer will be furnished by water- driven turbines located at the edge of the river and Controlled from the switchboard room in the main bullding. The plant will have two. 1,500 kilowatt turbines and generators. The surplus water from Great Falls will drive them, it being planned to use one conduit for furnishing the water supply and the other to furnish water for the cur- rent generating machines. The new aqueduct will have a carry- ing capacity of 110,000,000. gallons a day and is built of concrete. Water is carried across Cabin John creek by a steel syphon 10 feet in diameter and |. ¥%-inch thick, with the whole pipe en- cased and lined.with concrete. The new reservoirs are located in the northwest section, and each has a capa- city of 15,000,000 gallons. From the} filtered water reservoir in the new plant, pipe lines from 36 to 48 inches in diameter will run, they being of reinforced concrete with ap. interior steel cylinder serving as a Water seal. Two of them already have been tested under pressure, When the new plant is placed in|{ commission the Sixteenth street reser- voir or the District pumping stations will not be needed, but they will be retained until the new plant is working well. Their future disposition has not been determined. ENROLLMENTS RUSHED FOR MILITARY CAMPS 2,000 Received in Local Corps Area . Month. . Earlier Than Last Year.

LL TT SSS Greely, 83, Se: World: | Calls for Real sis Flying ‘Dias Pole Simply “Stunt,” He Says, Yield- ing No Scientific Data. Holds Air Flights at Best Are Scouting Work. Important Explorations Left in Northeast Fin- land—Prohibition He Describes as “Scandulous and Outrageous.” Today—while airplanes and dirigibles fly hurriedly to the dark corners of the world that they may be the first to look upon unknown regions—Maj. Gen. Adolphus Washington Greely, quietly observing his eighty-third birthday, sits back with the belief that “real ex- plorers are becoming rare.” It igs becoming harder and harder in the complexity of modern civilization, says this rugged veteran of one of the afctic’s great epics, to find real ex- plorers-— men. willing to sacrifice for years the comforts of the hearthstone that they may tramp into the ice- bound regions to satisfy the scientists’ thirst for facts. “What do you think,” he was asked the other day in his apartment, 1635 R street northwest, “of arctic exploration now that the airplane has entered the field?” “I don’t know anything about air- planes,” he replied. “Well, you do know what can be done in the air and what can be done on the ground.” He remained silent a moment, twin- ing and untwining his long knotted fingers, when he looked up and said, “The airplane has produced no scien- tific data of any value thus far in its ventures into the polar regions. Men that have flown there have returned simply to tell us that there is an ice- covered sea there’’—his eyes twinkled a little—“‘and it seemed that we knew that already.” “Phe world of today,” he added, “is going in for ‘stunts.” Men and women ev2 striving to perform anything that thoy may establish a record—they eat pies or swim channels—anything to m7? and break records. “S'ying over the pole is simply a ‘si.v1l'—-eat least it has been so thus i. vroducing no scientific data. “What we need in arctic exploration is some? real explorers who will go up thicre determined to get real scientific f-"ts. The scientists need information O1 magnetic. conditions. That should b? gathered as well as data on a num- ber of other subjects of which the north is replete. “At the best these afr flights now are scouting expeditions. Of course an airplane expedition might plan to es- tablish a base from which to work, but then there seems to be no cert /4ty about landing safely on the ice .ff the polar sea.” Greely‘ made these statements ad- visedly just as he did those sometime ago when he asserted that he did not believe that Peary had reached the pole. He is not readily drawn into con- troversies and does not readily discuss the Peary case. “When Peary returned,” Greely said, “I believed that he had reached the pole. I wanted to believe that an American had been the first. I main- tained that opinion until I had had an opportunity to go through his records. Any one interested in the matter may go back in the Congres- sional Record and see the facts as pre- sented there by Representative Helge- son. It’s all there.” Greely’s comments on the aircraft in the arctic should not lead any one to think that he is reactionary, for even With his conclusions drawn from the past the veteran explorer declares that he is looking forward with keen in- terest to the flight which George H. Wilkins is preparing to make by air- plane over the region between Alaska and the pole in search of land. This he characterizes as the most promising of the polar flights. He believes that there is important work to be done in the extreme northe eastern Finland, an unexplored region, to which Nansen, the famed exployer, who, incidentally, was the first to bet- ter the northernmost record’ set by Greely, is preparing to go. Greely also Is watching the movements of the Rus- sian soviets in their plans to explcvre Nicholas 2d land and Lenin lanu on the north cape of Asia. Greely has not been to the arctic since the summer of 1884, when he and six other survivors were rescued after three years by a relief expedition under Admiral W. S. Schley, yet his interest remains keen in the subject. On his eighty-third birthday he is hardy and robust, living quietly, spending some time at his clubs and a great deal in his home, where he absorbs the news of the world’s doings with avidity. “My interest now,” he said, “is in everything that promises to help and promote mankind.” His range of information 1s incred- ible. He is conversant with politics, literature, science, economics, social problems and many other important questions which many military men would give no thought to. “The world of today,” he comment- ed, “is devoting itself to the mat Jeaet’ istic side of life. I never have what you might call a pious man, but it doos seem to me that the artistic and spiritwalistic are the things to} impress upon the people. “Life in Washington is a good ex- ample.

GEN. A. W. GREELY, rare thing. Homes are being turned into apartments, where even-with the proximity of our fellows half of us do not know our next-door neighbor. The real spirit of neighborliness is be- ing lost.” Prohibition he believes to be “scan- dalous and outrageous.” It is one ex- ample, he believes, of the neglect: of Congress to guard the rights of citi- zens as guaranteed in the Constitution. He cites the negro in the South and the failure to reapportion representa- tion In Congress as other examples of failure to carry out the Constitution. “Too: many blocs in Congress,” he explained. 26,841 MILES OF NEW ROADS ARE PLANNED 47 States in 1927 Expected to Expend Total of $1,123,000,000. The construction of 26,841 miles of road and- the maintenance of 239,847 miles are included in the 1927 State highway programs of 47 States, accord- ing to reports received by the bureau of public roads, Department of Agri- culture. The programs also include the construction of large bridges. and the reconstruction of roads a asta 4 im- proved.

FRENCH AN TSH 4 ARMS VIEWS CLASH; LONDON WINS POINT Naval and Air Effectives to Be Considered Apart From > Military Units. BONCOUR INSISTS SAME PRINCIPLES BE APPLIED - .* Paris Cabinet Council Again Delays Reply to Coolidge Parley Invitation. > Geneva, March 26 (By A. P.).—French and British views clashed at today’s session of the League of Nations pre- paratory commission on disarmament over the question of interdependence of military, naval and aerial armaments. The British and Japanese delegates won their point that fhe question of naval and air effectives should be “studied apart from military effectives. Paul Boncour, French delegate warned the commission, however, that unless the principles governing land forces are applied equally to naval and aerial forces France will not accept them for land. The commission today passed the first reading of the clauses of the pro- posed general disarmament treaty avhich provide that signatories agree to it the number of men in service in their armed forces or other services or- ganized on military bases. Reply to U. 8. Is Delayed. Paris, March 26 (By A. P.).—The French council of ministers again failed 6t today’s session to discuss the mat- ter of France’s reply to President Cool- fdge’s invitation for the appointment of an observer to the three-power naval @isarmament conference at Geneva. The matter will probably be taken up by the middle of next week. Rome, March 26 (By A. P.).—lItaly’s gupplementary naval construction pro- ‘gram calls for twelve destroyers, nine ubmarines and four cruisers, Admiral Pirianni, undersecretary of state for 2the navy, told the chamber of depu- ties tonight. - The destroyers, which will be of 2,000. tons each, were ordered several months m@go and the cruisers, of 5,000 tons wach, will be ordered soon Three sub- marines have been ordered already, of awhich one will be designed for long cruises and two for medium cruises. All will be minelaying. Six submarines are now being ordered of a medium Yance, particularly adapted for the Mediterranean sea, and of the same type of which eight were included in the last building program. Diesel Engines Prove Economical in Tests (By the Associated Press.) “* Announcing the success of experi- “ments with the Diesel motor engines, “the Shipping Board yesterday declared additional government vessels may be aes from steam propulsion to otor drive in an effort to meet “foreign competition. ’. Experiments with six steel cargo car- *iers, the board said, showed the ves- "sels could obtain greater speed at lower operating cost as motorships than as steamers. The ships,, the Tampa, Unicoi, West Honaker, West Cusseta, Sawokla and Crown City, which were tried on the Atlantic route, will be put into the Far Eastern service. An appropriation of $15,000,- 600 still remains for the Dieselization program, which it is estimated is suf- ficient to motorize at least 20 addi- “ional ships. Diplomatic Immunity Claimed in Traffic Case -. Senorita Elvira Martinez Sobral, 21 years old, daughter of the Mexican .agent on the United States-Mexico claims commission, was arraigned be- fore Judge Gus A, Schuldt in traffic court yesterday to answer charges of ‘alleged violation of the traffic regula- tions. She claimed diplomatic immun- ity and Judge Schuldt dismissed the case. Policeman S. A. Schenck of the Third precinct said he found the Senorita’s gutomobile parked double in front of the Investment building. Although she told him she was immune from arrest Schenck gave her a ticket order- ing her to deposit collateral at the #Third precinct or appear in traffic court. Her credentials entitling her to dmmunity were presented by her at- ‘torney, Robert I. Miller.

Greene, managing director of the United States Radio society, in an address to the forum of the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce. “Action should be taken by the newspapers and the public generally to stop this nuisance,” he continued. “It is one of the livest subjects before the listeners of America and is one which will have to be dealt with by public opinion, led by the newspapers. The listeners themselves will have to attend to this, because there is nothing in the new radio law which places a ban on using the radio for advertising purposes. “Personally I do not think advertis- ers are entitled to free publicity in station programs unless they them- selves hook up their entertainment with advertising in the newspapers an- nouncing the fact that they have em- ployed singers and other artists for these entertainments. That is only fair to the newspapers and to the listeners. “But the real menace of the adver- tising is not so much in the programs as it is in the actual advertising of goods and merchandise over the radio and the quotation of prices in the same manner as is done in newspaper advertising. This is becoming a genu- ine nuisance and should be reached in some way at the earliest possible mo- ment. “This condition, unfortunately, is increasing and there are almost a dozen of these advertising sharks on the air. Suggestion has been made that they be taxed heavily so as to re- move their objectionable presence, I think listeners everywhere are opposed to this imposition on their good na- ture.” The speaker dealt with wild-catting of wave lengths and went into consid- erable technical detail with regard to means whereby it could be stopped. He said that he believed that this matter would be promptly attended to by the new Federal radio commission, as thou- sands of complaints have been made to broadcasting stations by listeners, Discussing the problems which will be faced by the radio commission he said that the one which involved the fixing of wave lengths for the 1733 broadcasting stations was the most puzzling. “It must be remembered that there are only 89 available channels,” said Director Greene, “and with the large number of stations to be taken care of somebody is going to be griev- ously disappointed and also suffer seri- ous loss. For it must be remembered that the refusal to grant a license to a station is tantamount to confiscation of its property because a radio station is equipped to do broadcasting and can be used for virtually nothing else. “All of these stations, great and small, perform a public service and the question will be to ascertain which per- form the best service and which are in- dispensable to the welfare of the busi- ness public and the radio listeners Often small stations perform a service which can not be well dispensed with, so the commission can not well go on the theory that only the largest stations are to be taken care of in the re- issuing of licenses. It might be possi- ble to fix a license tax of say $5,000 a year on a station and I do not think such a tax would be out of line. “It may be possible to split wave- lengths or reduce the power of sta- tions in such a way as to prevent in- terference. It may be possible to oper- ate in such a manner that three or four stations can use the same wave- length without trouble. The quetsions of simultaneous broadcasting with the same radio frequency are yet to be solved. “It may be that certain stations may be hooked up together for certain hours and other stations may use the same arrangement at other hours. It is possible to place stations in con- gested areas on short wave-lengths and with limited power, but all of these questions are to be worked out by the commission, and its task will not be an easy one. “There are 14,885 amateur operators under license now, and these opera- tors, mostly boys and girls in school, ought to be taken care of, They are the future radio engineers and oper- ators atid announcers of the nation and they have performed a great serv- ice to radio by their constant experi- ments. .I think that the supervision of professional radio operators is an excellent thing, but I think also that radio announcers should be both li- ecensed and supervised for the good of the science. That might do away with a number of complaints now heard.” 1.5. EXPORTS SHOW GAIN THROUGH RAW MATERIALS of Manufactured Goods in February Reported Less Than in 1926. SHRINKAGE IN IMPORTS (By the Associated Press.) Increases in American exports in February, as compared with February, 1926, were due to an increased flow abroad of raw materials. American ex- ports of manufactured goods fell off slightly during the period as compared with last year. The country’s imports as a whole were less in February than in the same month of last year, and the analysis yesterday by the Commerce Department disclosed that this fall was due very largely to a decrease in the intake of raw materials for manufacturing. The figures analyzing the foreign trade by commodities for February as compared with February, 1926, are as follows: Exports: Raw materials, $102,806,000, against $89,316,000; raw foodstuffs, $18,760,000, against $12,172,000; foods ready for con- sumption, $38,523,000, against $41,837,- 000; partly manufactured goods, $53,- 196,000, against $47,914,000; manufac- tured goods, $151,340,000, against $154,- 552,000 Imports: Raw materials, $114,815,000, against $172,808,000; raw foodstuffs, $42,804,000, against $42,111,000; foods ready for con- sumption, $39,794,000, against $36,026,- 000; partly manufactured goods, $52,- 181,000, against $72,809,000; manufac- tured goods, $61,322,000, against $63,- 552,000. PARTY TALKS URGED FOR JEFFERSON DAY Shaver Asks Discussion of Democratic Principles April 13, Birthday of Leader. (By the Associated Press.) the birthday anniversary of Thomas Jefferson on April 13 a day for discus- sion of the basic principles of the Dem- ocratic party, Olem Shaver, chairman of the Democratic national committee, has written the members of the com- mittee asking that at least one meet- ing be héld in every State to promote the principles of the party rather than the “interests of men.” “When all Americans become s0 ob- sessed with the notion that getting and spending is the be-all and end-all,” he said; “when they find excuses for yas gra funds supplied by tariff in- ustry barons and public utility bosses to eléct United States senators; when they are heard in praise of European dictatorship and other forms of abso- pe are it is ie ae for ee sie in emocracy to warn the peo nst tendencies similar in their nature to those which Jefferson fought. In line with the move for making CHILE PUTS TIME LIMIT ON ALL OWL GONCESSIONS Must Be Developed by 1927 or Face Cancellation, Ruling Says. CALLED STATE PROPERTY All petroleum concessions in Chile must be developed within the present year or be canceled, under the provi- sions of an act recently passed by the Chilean congress, Acting Commercial Attache C. C. Brooks, at Santiago, yes- terday cabled the Department of Com- merce. The act, Mr. Brooks said, declares all oil-bearing lands in Chile “to be the | property of the State,” thus following the move made by Mexico. The act amends the existing mining laws of the count Article 5 of thg Chilean national min- ing code, which reserves all guano and nitrate of soda deposits to the state, has been amended to included petro- leum deposits, Mr. Brooks explained. A provision of the new law, headded, cancels all petroleum concessions now in force in the country that are not developed within one year from Decem- ber 26, 1926. In every case, he said, where those now possessing petroleum concessions or oil land claims desire to develop their holdings, the properties must again be surveyed under the supervi- sion of the state within the one-year period. Failure to comply with this requirement, under the law, is suffi- cient cause to declare the concession null and void, he said. Santiago, Chile, March 26 (By A. P.). Chilean Catholics are asked to make special contributions to the church on account of the recent removals of Catholic priests from political offices in pursuance of the government’s an- nounoed policy of separating church and state. A joint pastoral letter issued today from Chilean prelates remarks that the separation of church and state leaves the church without sufficient funds to maintain its institutions.

P.)—Testimony that an American officer of ag Philippine constabulary, Maj. Dorr H. Malone, fostered the re- cent rebellion of Datu Tahil, high Moro) e dignitary and husband of Princess Tarhata Kiram, by giving the Moro chief 600. rounds of ammunition and several rifles and urging him to defy the government, was brought into Tahil's trial for sedition here today. Provisional Gov. Carl Moore, on the witness stand, produced an affidavit signed by Tahil implicating Malone, who was accused of having promised assistance to Tahil if the latter got into difficulty. The affidavit was sworn to before a justice of the peace, but never has been referred to by Tahil. Gov. Moore testified that the trouble back of the rebellion originated in a feud between Tahil and Datu Uddin over who should have the most power in the Patikul district, of which Uddin is president. Another factor was Tahil’s divorcing Princess Korona, Uddin’s daughter, in order to take Princess Tarhata as his fourth wife. The Mohammedan law, which the Moros follow, allows a man only four wives. Princess Tarhata,. American-educated niece of the Sultan of Sulu, figured in the uprising when she visited Tahil's fortifications, thereby preyenting the constabulary from attacking them. JIn- jury to the princess would have angered the entire Moro tribe. Tahil and the princess escaped from the fort but later were taken into custody. Tahil was charged with sedi- tion and the princess is being held in semiconfinement. Federal Employes Reelect Maj. Braden ,Maj. J. Q. A.

@ ONES GIAN TS Mental Lapse! Of Nats Is Fatal Jackson Steals Home as Tate and Pitcher _ Debate Play. Rally in Ninth Futile; Goslin and West Lead Attack. By FRANK H. YOUNG. T. AUGUSTINE, Fla., March 26.— The Nationals dropped another game to the Giants this afternoon, losing out, 5 to 3. It was a real ball game for five innings, and then the Nats faltered, mentally and otherwise, and away went the decision. George Murray and Irving Hadley pitched for the Nats, with Virgil Barnes and Bill Clarkson looking after the Giant box work. A bad sixth inning for both Murray and the Nats proved costly. Both of the Giant .:urlers were fairly effective. Tate and Murray were the offenders who personally helped the Giants to two runs in the sixth. Both chased an infield hit, leaving the plate uncovered, while Terry scored from second, and a moment later, while trying to ascertain the culpable cause in conference half way between the pitchers’ and batters’ box, they allowed Jackson to steal home in perfect safety. Goslin, with two brilliant catches; Bluege, with one, and West and Tucker, with some brilliant throws, starred for Washington afield, while Gosl'n, West and: Myer came through with two hits each. Harris experimented a bit in this game, switching Bluege to shortstop and Myers t- third, not being sat- isfied with the manner.in which the latter has been handling him- self. around the middle sack with positive double plays in sight. The Nats broke the ice in the third, Barnes helping them to a run when he threw wildly in trying to pick Myer off first. The latter went to third on ’ the error and registered on Judge’s long sacrifice fly. Previous to this inning each side had threatened once. Ih the first, with two gone, perfectly good hits by Tucker and Goslin were wasted, while two walks and Jackson's safe bunt packed the aisles with Giants with none out, yet they failed to score. A great peg by West helped save the day, for he took Ott’s fly and ‘threw out Harper, who tried to score after the catch. In the lower half of the third inning the McGrawmen tied the score, an error helping them. After Hornsby had led off with a single and another by Harper had propelled him to third, Terry lofted to West and again Sammy came through with a great throw to the plate. Umpire first called Rogers out. but then discovered that. Tate had dropped the ball. A hit by West was wasted in the fifth and McCann opened the-sixth with a single. He ended the inning by being thrown out stealing, while third base was as far as the Nats could work McCann. The Nats looked 4 both good and bad in the lower portion of round 6, when the Giants scored three times. Lind- strom opened with a single and Goslin made a great catch of Hornsby’s drive, which was so far back that it went as @ sacrifice. McCann then “booted” Harper's roller and Terry’s single sent Lindstrom home. On this lgtter clout, -a@ fine peg by Tucker killed Harper go- ing into third. Jackson and Ott then cracked out successive one-basers, the latter bound- ing off Judge’s knee. Tate and Mur- ray both chased the ball, and Terry _crossed the plate, which was uncov- ered. Jackson then stole home while Tate and Murray were blaming each. other for not being theré. . Ott tried to beat it to second on this latter play “and.a snap throw by Tate nailed him. But for McCann’s miscue the frame would have ended without an alien -Tun being scored. Clarkson and gp aaex uP the pitching in the séven and an- other great ‘catch by Goslin is all that held the Giants down to a single run in their half. Hadley was wild, walking one and hitting one, while Berger was charged with @ passed ball. In the seventh, ~ Clarkson walked one, while he started West off with a pass -in the eighth and McCann hit into a double play. The Nationals made short ‘their = oer in the last en = the fans up in the “ninth .with -a rally which netted two but a. eeame play ‘stopped the erowded.

Teams at Quantico Hit by Chinese War With a total of 800 men drawn from the Quantico marine base to quell Chinese disorders, athletic activities among the marines this summer will probably be curtailed because of the absence of stellar players. All liberty kas been refused to men at the Quantico base, and though this order does not of itself prevent outside athletic competition, it is more than likely that scheduled baseball games by the.marines will be called off and drill substituted, even if team members are retained at Quantico. It was understood last night that a number of athletes were included in the unit of 70 to leave tomorrow for Asia, but the mobilized men are largely from the old Sixth regiment, contain- ing few baseball players. Heilmann’s Homers Fail to Beat Texans San Antonio, Tex., March 26 (By A.

One .of Heilmann’s homers cleared the fence near center field, a distance of 375 feet from home plate. Lefty Johns, starting for the Tigers, gave up nine bases on balls and five hits in the first three innings, allowing the Bears to pile up a lead to win, 7 to 2, Fillingim struck out Tavener in the second with the bases filled, after Heilmann had hit his first homer with. nobody on.

Wide Defeats Ritola Over 2 Miles Swede Gains Revenge Over Finn, but Fails to Lower Mark. Hahn Breaks Record in 1,000 Meters; New Hardle Time Set. ADISON SQUARE GARDEN, New York, March 26 (By A: P.).— World’s record performances by two American stars, Lloyd Hahn, of the 0; Boston A. A., and Chick Werner, of the Illinois A. C., tonight took the _ spot- light from Edvin Wide’s victory over Willie Ritola in the 2-mile race slated to be. the feature of the United Swed- ish societies’ indoor track and field car- nival. Flashing a sensational burst of speed, Hahn, the American mile champion and recent conqueror of Wide, smashed the indoor mark; besides bettering the best outdoor ‘standard, in a _ sensational 1,000-meter duel with Ray Dodge. of the Illinois A. C. Hahn broke the tape in 2 minutes 262-5 seconds, clipping 31-5 seconds from the former world’s record, made by Joie Ray in 1925. The outdoor mark of 2:283-5 is held by Sven Lundgren, of Sweden. Wide was clocked in 9 minutes 5 sec- onds, as compared with the standard of 8:581-5, set two years ago by the Finnish phantom, Paavo Nurmi. The Swedish stylist, however, gained sweet revenge over Ritola. It was the first time they had met since the 1924 olympics, when Ritola trimmed Wide in four straight races, but the Swede to- night ran his opponent into the ground to win by 40 yards, with Good- win: 60 yards further in the rear. Werner, making a clean sweep of the hurdle series, stepped to a new world’s record of 7 1-5 seconds over the 60-yard low. sticks, besides equaling the indoor standard of 6 1-5 seconds at 50 yards. After Wide had decisively beaten Ritola and Willie Goodwin, of the New York A. C., in tke 2-mile special, but failed to touch the world’s record, Hahn stepped on the track to turn in a siz- zling performance. Dodge pressed the Boston star and came up to his shoul- der in the last lap spurt, but Hahn had enough in reserve to keep the lead and pull away in the stretch to an 8-yard margin. Jimmy Connelly, of the New York A. C., was third. Ove Anderson, young Finnish star, starting from scratch, was the victor in a 3-mile run in which his chief rival, Leo Lermond, of the Boston A. A., also a scratch man, collapsed. and with- Grew after covering only a mile. An- derson won easily from the*remainder of the field in 14 minutes 37 4-5 sec- onds, Harold M.' Osborn, of the Illinois A C.,.. world’s champion high jumper, turned in the best performance he has shown in his specialty this season, when he leaped 6 feet 5%. inches to win this event. He failed in three at- tempts to set a. new indoor record of 6 feet 65 inches. Johnny Gibson, of Fordham uni- versity, captured the 500-meter race from a crack field by jumping to the front at the start and holding the lead all the way. “Pinkie” Sober, of the Holy Name club, flashed a sensational spurt to out- foot Alan Helffrich and George Leness, of New York A. C,, aces, for second place in a driving finish. The time was 1 minute 6 3-5 seconds. Luque to Join Reds: Signs 2-Year Terms ‘Havana, March 26 (By A.

Vacca Loses Decision to Bell; Abe Attell Goldstein Wins. HICAGO, March 26 (By A. P.).— Bud Taylor, recognized in Illinois and. seventeen other States as world’s* bantamweight champion, was held to a- draw by the. youthful Tony Canzoneri, of New York, rated as the leading bantamweight of the East in @ furious 10-round fight in the Coli- seum tonight. The decision of Referee Joe Choynski, the old-time heavyweight and two judges, was unanimous. They agreed that Canzoneri slightly outboxed Taylor with his long, willowy lefts, but that the Terre Haute terror forced the fight- ing and landed the cleaner and harder punches. Canzoneri surprised Taylor by slugging with him in their furious exchanges and refusing. to yield ground. The decision was received with a mingle of boos and cheers, with the boos outnumbering the whoops. The crowd evidently thought that Taylor was entitled to the -verdict, because of his agressive tearing-in battle. When the ninth round started Taylor appeared to ringsiders to have a slight shade, but Canzoneri staged a truly courageous finish that undoubt- edly influenced the judges and referee in reaching their verdict. He stood toe-to-toe with Taylor, exchanging punch for punch, producing a climax that brought spectators cheering to their feet. He occasionally switched his at- tack nailing Taylor on the head’ with hard rights. Both = sus- tained cuts over the eyes before tae end of the first round, and their faces were bloody smears by the end of the fight. Canzoneri presented’ an elusive at- tack, attempting to box Taylor at long- range and only slugging with him when the Terre Haute blond came piling in to close quarters. The fiifth round was Canzoneri’s best ‘showing, when he outscored Taylor 5 to 1, keeping Taylor out of range with lefts to the face, shooting them with such frequency that Taylor became be- wildered. A broad grin broke across Bud's face. after he had stopped all the punches Canzoneri unleashed and had failed to score himself. Johnny Vacca, 01 of Boston, twice conqueror of Fidel La Barba, of Los Angeles, the fiyweight champion, dropped an eight-round decision to Archie Bell, a shifty New York 118- pounder. Vacca, bobbing and. weaving like Dave. Shade, was un- able to connect with his. heavy rights that wound harmlessly around Bell’s neck, and he looked very foolish at times. Bell, with his superior reach and box- ing skill, kept popping long lefts into Vacca’s face, occasionally dropping a right. cross to the chin or driving rights to the- body. Abe Attel Goldstein, of New York, former world’s bantamweight champion, had.no trouble in defeating Sarmi- ento in their eight-round semifinal. Sarmiento was floored for a count of four in the seventh. Goldstein weighed 11814 pounds and Sarmiento 119 pounds. Newsboy Brown, of Sioux City, Iowa,. won the verdict over Ernie Peters, an Indian flyweight, of Chicago, in another eight-rounder, dealing out an artistic pasting.

George Voigt, Washington ama-« teur, finished tenth with 297, and Watts Gunn, Atlanta amateur, was” fourteenth. with 299, the same score ., turned in by Walter Hagen. -Early in the day it was seen that the contest would be for second place, Bobby Jones with scores of 72 and 66 was far ahead of the field at the close of the first 36 holes, and the profes- sionals set out for a battle among themselves for the second place posi- tion and first money. Bobby finished strong in both morning and afternoon rounds, . He dropped.a chip shot from the oaeicd the green for a birdie 2 in the round that. gave him a 71, and in the afternoon he got a long putt .down for 72. Bobby was not on his game .to- day, and while he played great golf for an ordinary player, he was not hitting the shots that gave him a 66 yesterday. He did not have to, for he was. so far ahead he.could coast home. The champion went out in par on his morning round after a poor start, taking five on the par four first hole. He picked up a birdie at the seventh ~ and played the rest of the holes pere fectly. Coming home he slipped on two-holes where he needed one.more than par and-had to wait until the eighteenth to get one of them back.

Cleveland and Washington should furnish a fitting close to a professional season which has been replete with hard-fought encounters from the start. There is intense rivalry between these clubs, and In previous clashes players of both sides have engaged in inci- dental set-tos which nearly developed into fistic shows, Very likely Marty Friedman’s Clevc- landers will be out to spoil Washing- ton’s chance of finishing in second place.

He had been last around the first turn and had been far back in his field until half a mile of the race had been run and he had been com- = to go around the entire pack; ut come Fred Junior did, and it was then that Johnson and the Idle Hour farm profited by the reserve strength Johnson had held on Boo, as well as by the excellent condition and the stout heart of the game black colt. Fred Junior left the others behind just as Boo straightened out in the stretch, and Fred Junior, handling his 122 pounds impost like a grand colt, closed in steadily. The shouts from the throng of 16,000 persons echoed far across the track as thousands pulled for Boo and Johnson to hold the lead, and thousands more pulled for Fred Junior.

Harris insists, however, that he plans to keep McNeely, wants to hang on to Tucker and Cullop, while he also is “sweet” on West.

McGRAW, Manager, New York Giants. T. AUGUSTINE, Fla., March 26.— Every day that the spring training advances I am more impressed with’ the importance and the advan- tage of the opportunity offered by Flor- ida for the testing of strength between the major league ball clubs. In my opinion, this puts all clubs on a keener edge and has them ready for the big grind at least two weeks ahead of time. The question is asked me often, if I think there is an advantage in this new form of practice; this playing of hard games between major league teams. I certainly do. Even the rawest recruit has a chance to see the real thing before he hits the championship campaign. In fact, Clark Griffith tells me that he has purposely refrained from any exhibition games whatsoever with minor league clubs because of his bellef that the hippodrome games do no good In years gone by, we trained for two or three weeks to get in physical shape and then we started northward by slow steps playing the local minor league We did not see a real major league club until we were right in the middle of the real fight. It took some time for the young fel- lows, and even the old fellows, to get themselves accustomed to the tough opposition. As it is now we fight the best clubs in both leagues all the way north. Our pitchers know the op- posing batters and learn how to pitch to them. It often happens that this early association comes in handy tn a world’s series. To give you an Illustration: Three years ago we traveled north with the Washington club, playing games as we went. Nt. 60 happened that both the Giants and the Nationals won their respective pennants. So when it came to the big world’s series our pitchers were perfectly familiar with the Washington club and they were equally familiar with us. We knew what we were doing when the real test came. These big league exhibition games are -.. @ great benefit in many ways. There are - many players who do not rise to their real heights except in actual competi- tion. They fool around in minor league games and really do not care much what happens. When it comes to the real thing, though, these players get on their met- tle and deliver the goods. It is much like soldiers and officers in the army. I‘am told, who are great fighters in action but who become slack and loose peace times. We have many play- of that type. They simply can not to greatness unless the opposition ig strong. Around the camps many play- ers fool around during the early weeks and apparently show'no re- sults. The minute they see the fire of real battle they step out and show their stuff. It takes these games to furnish the incen- tive. In a game between the Car- dinals and the Giants the other day the fight was for real blood. Every player rose to the occasion, The same thing happened fh our tilts with Washington. The players did not look on these games as train- ing. To them it was real action. Raw recruits who had shown nothing came up with new qualities that had been under cover. It is the same with all clubs. Unquestionably there are in baseball what we call “money play- ers,” meaning men who can not rise to greatness unless something big is at stake. We have many bDallplayers of that type. Krankie Frisch, for instance, never could get worked up unless he had to bear down. Bill Dahlen was of that type. Bill would take things easy until the big moment came and then step out. Ed Delehanty and Lajoic were both that way. In a spring training camp the ’ average spectator might think that ‘their stars amounted to nothing. When the big punch was necessary, however, they had it. Oh, I could ‘y, mame s lot of those great old play- ers who needed the spur of real ~ action—Mike Donlin, Johnny Ev- sig for instance, wil ers, Hans. Wagner, Bobby Wallace and many others. There are others who become fighters the moment they get in a ball game, no matter what is the gp metongin Babe fight just as RS @ minor league club as 7 BASKETBALL i Washington : Cleve land .

ADAMS 9800 s 4 54 College Baseball Games Scheduled Here This Week Georgetown Meets Temple M onday—Spring- field at Maryland Tuesday—Gallaudet at Catholic U. Wednesday; Vermont Next. IVE games, four of them home contests, bringing into action all of the local colleges adorn this week's schedule of ball games and three of the games will open the sea- son for Georgetown and Catholic uni- versities and Gallaudet. One of the best games of the week is looked for when Georgetown opens its playing season at the Hilltop by clashing with Temple university of Philadelphia. The two teams battled last season for eleven -innings before Georgetown won 5 to 4 and as. the Philadelphians will present practically the same line-up as a year ago a close game is expected. Herman Hochheiser, the crack ' Fight-hander who faced George- town in that eleven inning game, is anxious for another chance against the Blue and Gray, and as he is Temple’s best bet he is sure to start Coach Ben Egan } has already an- nounced Birch as his pitching selec- tion, and in any event he is unable to start Gillespie another veteran will be called upon. For Georgetown, Phelan will be first and “Tip” O’Neill second choice 4s catcher; Capt. Ralph Graham will be at first base; either Buck O’Neil or Glenn at second; Donovan at short, and Nork at third. If Coach Egan plays Glenn at second, O’Neill will be sent to center field in place of Duphlin, to bolster the hitting strength of e team, and McLean and Odlum will cover left and right field, respectively. Maryland plays its second game at College Park Tuesday against Spring- field College, and practically the same lihe-up will be used as against the University of Richmond last Friday. Coach Burton Shipley did not pitch his ace, Adelbert England, in the first game, and he; Bromley and Snyder will be available. The catching staff will be strengthened by Frank Lesch- insky, who has hurdled scholastic dijf- ficulties. Saturday Maryland will travel to Baltimore to engage Loyola. Catholic University will busy it- self with two games, one on Wed- nesday with Gallaudet, and Ver- mont, also at the Catholic stadium. on Saturday. Roberts, who was primed to pitch for Gallaudet yes- terday against Briarly Hall, will probably face Moran’s men, with Al Rose behind the plate. For Catholic University, Bonomo Sheffield, Manfreda and “Battler’’ Byrne will all probably see service either against Gallaudet on Wednesday or Vermont on Saturday. Manfreda, pitch- ing for the Reserves, looked good against Camp Holabird yesterday afternoon. Grogan also showed up behind the plate... The remainder of the starting line-up will be the same as has- been used all season in the practice skir- mishes. C. U. Reserves Lose, 4.2, to Soldier Nine The Catholic Uniyersity varsity re- serves and Camp Holabird staged a nip and tuck battle yesterday after- noén on the Catholic university dia- mond and the Soldiers shoved across a run in both the sixth and seventh innings to break a 2-run tie of the fifth frame to emerge the winner by a 4-to-2 score. Browne, who hurled the first three innings for the visitors, and Manfreda, who was on the hill for five frames for Catholic University, played the headline roles in a game which was hard- ~fought and well-played through- out, Browne held his opponents helpless, and retired in favor of Martin who in turn was relieved in the seventh in- ning by Hoff. Mantfreda, who is fighting for a berth on Coach Morgan’s regular staff, hurled brilliantly for five innings, allowing only three hits, which Camp Holabird bunched in the fifth to score 2 runs. Conlin, who relieved him, was reached | for one marker in both the sixth and seventh. Ryan pitched the last inning, allowing no hits. Holabird. ABH O A'Catholie U.

Gallaudet started another raliy in the fourth, while Roberts continued t9 baffle the academy hitters. Zieske started things by drawing life at {first on an error by Trundle. Wright and Rose both grounded out, but Hokanson hit a high fly to center which Clark misjudged and Zieske scored. Shallo let the ball go through him in an attempt to nip Hokanson off sec- ond and he raced to third. Cosgrove was passed and stole second.

INE-UPE of the baseball teams of Washington’s high schools are still indefinite in the minds of the coaches with the exception of Coach Ahearn at Western, and the coming week will be devoted to the assortment of the more than 200 candidates who have reported for practice. Unfavorable weather conditions have retarded the work of the various squads, but with prospects of warmer weather the tossers will get down to work in earnest. Coach Guyon, of Eastern, will use games with strong sandlot teams as a medium of obtaining a line on the abil‘ty of the numerous candi- dates of his squad. No regular nine will be picked until. the latter part of the week. Capt. Rankin injured his finger in practice last week, but will probably be out with the team in a few days. The Central team has shown a woeful weakness at the bat, and Coach Kim- ball will devote his attention to strengthening the. offensive punch of tr? club. Ault, a catcher, will be used in the outfield to bolster the hitting strength, while Blackistone is doing the receiving. The battery candidates of Busi- ness High are far advanced over the rest of the squad. Eddie Ma- . rosey and Revell Jones both seem able to go the route at the present time, but Coach Collins is con- fronted with a serious problem in the selection of his infield and out- field combination. However, the boys have shown fine spirit in their practices and Business undoubtedly will develop a formidable ball club. A number of games with independent teams is listed for this week. Tech’s squad of 60 candidates has reduced to 20 from which num- ber Coach Glenn will choose his regu- lar team. Several promising tossers were lost to the squad because of low marks, but as the high school series does not start until the next advisory, the Manual Trainers may be able to bolster their team for the series. Games with St. Alban’s on Tuesday, and the Episcopal on Saturday, on the latter’s field, have been scheduled for the Techites. Western High’s squad is the smallest among the high schools, but this has been an asset rather than a hindrance to Coach Ahearn in rounding the team into shape. Red and White tossers were late in taking the field, but if yesterday's showing of the team in its abbre- viated game with the Chevy Chase A. C. is any criterion of its strength, the team shapes up as a real title contender. Schneider, Western’s pitching ace, was especially impressive in yesterday's contest, which was interrupted by rain in the fourth inning. Western was leading, 3 to 1, at the time. The team that started for the school lads in yes- terday’s practice affair is virtually the regular nine that will be primed for the three-day trip the Western tossers |. will take during April 19, 20 and 21, with the Staunton Military Academy, Washington and Lee Freshmen and Fishburn Military Academy on the schedule. The team took the field with Wilson behind the plate, Owens at first base, Walcott at second, Stevens in the short field, Looney at third, and Walker, Capt. Hilleary and Buscher in the outfield. Western opens its season April 9 with the Episcopal tossers. Strayer’s Bows, 14-8, To T. T. Keane Team Scoring eight runs in the first two innings, the T. T. Keane Co. nine got away to ea big lead against the Strayer’s College baseball team yesterday and emerged at the long end of a 14-to-8 score, Twelve hits and five passes were obtained from the three Strayer’s pitchers. J. Freschi was the star in the victor’s offensive, getting three hits out of five times at bat, his triple in. the first inning scoring two men. J.

mek) he 2 eae sh 8 4 ial se ‘Arrows,. De Luxe and , Boys Club Teams - Take D. C. Titles. ical Winners Oppose *« Baltimore Champs This Week. ~- OND’S Whirlwinds earned the right to represent the District against the champions of Baltimore here this week for the-South Atlantic A. A. U. tournament title by defeating the Roses, 22 to 19, at the Arcadia last Might. The contest was a battle royal ftom start to finish and was a fitting climax to a night of brilliant basket- “The Arrows came from behind to de- feat the Boys Club Celtics, 23 to 21, for the District 145-pound honors, while teams from the Boys club annex- ed the 115 and 100 pound honors, The De Luxe five, composed of players from the club, won 21 to 18, over the Aztecs, end the Optimists stopped the St. John’s Victors, 32 to 20. In addition to the unlimited inter- ‘tity battle, the De Luxe tossers will ‘meet the Baltimore 115-pound cham- pions here. Both games will be played 6n the same night. The Arrows, Boys Club Flashes, Optimists and the Wash- ‘Ington A. C., the girls’ winner, will travel to Baltimore for their titular battles. While the Bond’s-Roses game - was close enough to provide the crowd a number of thrills, it was the battle of the Arrows and Boys Club Celtics which resulted in the night’s feature ‘game. Displaying their ir best form of the ‘eournament, the Celtics caused more than a mild surprise by running up a 8-to-2 lead on an Arrow team, which included ‘some of the best scholastic talent hereabout, in the first quarter. Furthermore, the Celtics proceeded to Stick ahead 5-to-11 at the half and 19-to-15 at the three-quarter mark. Im the final quarter, the Arrows came through with a rush which tied ‘the score in the last two minutes of play and won the game when Walter “Morris dribbled in front of the basket, found an opening and sank a field goal. 6 The entrance of Falcone to the game for the Arrows and the exit ’“of Irish Walsh and Bob Shaw, of the Boys club, on personal fouls was a factor in the Arrows triumph. Both Walsh and Shaw ‘had been playing a high grade of basketball, , while Falcone made his presence felt in the Arrow rally. *, Pete Nee was again the center of the works for the Arrows. He directed their play and led the team in scoring. Burgess and Crouch, the other Central stars, failed to count. In fact, three Arrow forwards were held scoreless from scrimmage by Essex, Shaw, Rosen- blatt and Artis, who alternated at guards for the Celtics. . With the exception of a short inter- Yal near the end of the first half, the Roses were never ahead of the F Streeters, although the former Epiph- any tossers were in the game every _ptep of the distance. Bond’s led at the end of the first quarter, 6 to 2; nosed "to the front, 9 to 8, at the completion ‘of the half, and had a 19 to 12 advan- tage with the third period passed. “ The Roses sent a barrage of long “shots toward the basket in the last quarter, which produced only one field goal. Due to the presence of -. only six eligible players, the Roses “- played the last minute and a half with four men, McGann and Hayes having been forced to the bench on four personal fouls. Bond’s offered to allow Hayes to con- tinue, but the Rosss preferred to use four players. However, this had no ef- fect on the outcome of the battle, FRENCH NET STARS WIN U. S. DOUBLES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 21.) with A. W. Asthalter, of New York, “won the indoor honors two years es ago. Borotra was the dominating figure on the court in the doubles. It was from his versatile racket that the finishing ‘shots in nearly every rally sped swiftly ‘and surely through the openings in the ‘American team’s defense, but he was enly Yeon by Brugnon’s powerful Pe ‘King proved the vulnerable link a the American combination. It was ugh his service that the European Peay broke in each set to gain their cadivantage, erratic forecourt play on the part of the New York man costing _the losers many points and eventually “paving the way to their downfall. — e ee pe ery sat Gian 0004 RGEEEEA noone @iEEDGte: Tams iil ih mi nT it } Hit | ' ; sit Thal bit hl | li | ad | . ] t ‘TOPG ae > 7 -. . ae hm & , > - ne - ry ee ee A RE A EE - to your measure Highest Grade Tailoring | SPRING GOLF DATES] APRIL. erage cotionh!

The guarding of Harry Cole and the shooting of “Reds” Cohan and John Colbert were the features for the Optimists in their 100-pound victory over the St. John’s Victors.

It was only last year that three marks V nave with envy the records that fell on the Coliseum drives, with the/| oc. King Pin- bowlers: figuring in all of them: The King Pin team, including Megaw, Burtner, Harville, Welsh and Campbell toppled a set of 1,809; while Campbell and Burtner, shooting as‘ a two-man team, totaled 763. To the peppery King Pin lead-off man, Reds Megaw, went the high honors of the event, as his 1,138 total for all three events not only won first place but also established a new high mark. The only mark to withstand last year’s attack was George Friend’s 410); nee in singles on the same alleys in 924. With these facts confronting them the bowlers are anxious to settle the closé races, of which there are many, so-as to be relieved of the strenuous period they are now passing through. Probably the most exciting race is that of the District league, recog- . nized as the major body of: duck- pin bowling in Washington. . King Pin leads the circuit by a total pin- fall margin over Stanford, with G. P. O., Curb Cafe and Convention Hall still much in the race. The Curb five suffered the worst de- feat of the season when Cornell Lunch upset the dope and copped three games. The Athletic league race is still in doubt, with the match this week be- tween the leading Smithfields and the Arlingtons booked as the deciding one of the pennant race. The two leading girls’ circuits, the Washington Ladies league and the La- dies District league, have practically established their pennant winners in the Beeques and the Convention Hall teams, respéctively. The Typothetae flag has been clinched by Judd & Detweiler, while the National Bank of Wash- ington and the freight Accounts fives of the Bankers and Southern Railway circuits, respectively, are the apparent champions. The Masonic race is practically de- cided for La Fayette, the only upheaval being an occasional high score now and then, such as Lewis’: 164 this last week. Urban also surprised the fans by taking the average lead. Many other leagues, including the Odd Fellows, Knights of Columbus, Commerce, Interior, Georgetown Church, Merchants and Federal, turned in their usual activities, ‘with the last named pig to conclude its schedule tomorrow nig Team.

CHARLES QUANT. \Ts standing challenge of Do now appear, ITH the beginning of the new year, as repeatedly stated in this column, it was more than evident that the golf activities during this season would excel all previous records. The calendar for the next three months, printed in another col- umn, demonstrates the prediction was fully justified. The schedule might be almost in- definitely extended, for from the early part of April until the latter part of next November, when Thanksgiving day turkey. tournaments will be held at the Argyle, Indian Spring and Beaver Dam clubs, every week, and practically every day, has some event announced. Nor is the list as printed this morning complete. The golf committee of the Congres- sional club, owing to the absence of J. E, Murphy, has not yet held a meeting. to arrange the season’s pro- gram, and the golf committee of the Manor club will meet some time in the near future and decide upon its various competitions. It is perhaps fortunate, in view of the crowded schedule, that neither @he Washington, Bannockburn, Columbia or Town and Country clubs offers any additions to the program. These clubs, with the exception of invitation tour- naments for Town and Country, Wash- ington and Columbia, will have nothing in the way of competitions until the holiday on Decoration day, unless the Columbia club stages a team match competition, confined to club members exclusively, the details for which have not yet been definitely determined, and which can not be arranged until the return of George P. James, the chair- man of the golf committee, from Flor- ida and Havana. Additions to the printed sched- ute may be expected when the proposed Interdepartmental Golf Jeague organizes tomorrow after- noon and decides upon the dates for its team matches, while. it is expected that the usual spring tournament of the Washington “Newspaper Golf club wlil be played upon a course to be: selected in the future. In addition, the Washington Typo- thetae, the Washington Dental asso- ciation and other organizations which indulge in monthly golf tournaments must be included. The calendar is so crowded, in fact, that some changes must be made in order to avoid-.conflict of dates. ‘For instance, the Kiwanis club has ar- ranged to play at Indian Spring on the day when the invitation tourna- ment of that club begins, so that some other date must be arranged, while the District. Professional Golf association scheduled a women’s ama- teur professional best-ball match on the same day that the members of the Women’s Golf association of the District of Columbia have decided to play a miniature tournament at the Bannockburn club. These are minor matters, however, and there will be no difficulty in selecting other dates. There has been considerable activity during the past week among all the golf committees, although, as already stated, neither Columbia, Washington, Town and Country or Bannockburn proposes any competitions for their members during the spring months The programs of the Chevy Chase and Argyle clubs have already been printed and in addition to these the Beaver Dam, Town and Country and Indian Spring clubs have arranged a schedule which will keep their members busy during the entrie b golfing season. The Beaver Dam | schedule begins on May 8 with a Scotch four- some and ends on November 20 with a turkey tournament. Three cups—Dulin & Martin, Cadillac and President’s, will be competed for during the year, with the annual club championship contest to begin on September 4.,: The women’s club championship, medal play, 18 holes, will be played on August 28. Competitions of various characters are on the program for prac- tically every week during the season. The golf committee of the Town and Country club, under the chairmanship of Dr M. B. Fischer, met last week and decided upon its program of events. A tournament for the benefit of the green section of the United States Golf association on May 30 and a flag day tournament on July 4 will be followed by a Scotch foursome on August 7. On August 28, the team of the Suburban club of Baltimore will play the Town and Country club on the course of the latter club. The annual handicap championship tournament has been set for September 4, 5 and 11, to be followed by the ne rig” club championship on September 18, 25 and October 2, each event to be preceded by a qualifying round of 18 holes and the contest to be decided by match play rounds, 18 holes exch. On Oc r 9 Ashburn’ club, of Philadelphia. During June, the annual club championship for the women members will be played and dur- ing the last week in June the. Town and Country club team will go to Richmond to play in the tri- city team match between Wash~ Faiane ssagerncne and Norfolk.

L. Heap and Mrs. J. V. Brownell. G. H. Chasmar, ‘A. B. Leech and Arthur B. Heaton, acting under the direction .of John C. Walker, president, have been appointed a committee to solve the problem of providing more parking space for automobiles at the Columbia Country club. As stated last week, the question of providing space for automobiles at all the clubs is a serious one. It.is expected that at the Columbia club the space between the present roadway and the woods at the western border of the club property, south of the clubhouse, will be util- ized. The number of eagles scored on the course of the Washington Golf and Country club last week-end con- stitutes almost a record. Rice, son of br. Thomas J. Rice, play- ing’ with his father and George T. How- ard and John I. Power, drove nearly to the trap guarding the tenth green and then pitched his ball into the cup with a mashie niblick for an eagle two. The hole is 318 yards in length. Calfee, P. . W. playing the fif- teenth hole, reached the green, 466 yards, with a drive and a brassy and holed out an eagle 3. Maurice J. McCarthy duplicated the performe ance on the same hole with a drive, an iron shot and a putt. The eighth hole is 459 yards in length but Ray Wise was on the green with a drive and a spoon and holed out an eagle three, thereby winning enough, so it is said, to keep him in golf galls for a month. The members of the Kiwanis clubs are now getting their golf clubs out of cold storage preparatory to participat- ing in the golf program which has been arranged for their entertainment. On or about April 21, the teams of the Baltimore and Washington Kiwanis clubs will indulge in a notable conflict. The club tournaments have been sched~< uled as follows. Washington Golf and Country club, about May 11. Spring Golf club, May 25. Congressional Country club, June 9, and Town and Country club, June 30. The fairways of the Manor club are now in such excellent condition that all events during the coming season will be played under summer rules. In addition to this, the greens are in fine shape and many of them are equal to any greens in the District section. It is expected that the golf committee will meet this week and prepare @ season schedule. The course of th§ Manor club has been offered to the. Inter-Departmental Golf league. fof team matches, The annual election of officers of the Indian Spring club will be held at the clubhouse next Thursday night. C.

CHOP 1S WEAKENING FACTOR FOR. WHEAT Considerable Liquidation in Market Carries Future Prices to Low Mark. FIRMER TONE IS SHOWN IN CASH CORN TRADING Oats Decline Reflects Limited Demand; Foreign Sales Made in Rye. Continued good prospects for the winter wheat crop, together with weak- ness in the future markets for corn and Oats, were weakening factors in the wheat market during the week ended yesterday, according to the weekly grain market review of the United States Department of Agriculture. The lack of any improvement in the com- mercial demand for corn, together with the large stocks in the markets, forced future prices of both corn and oats to sharply lower levels, but. cash mar- kets for these grains were relatively firm because of light receipts and a good interior demand. Barley prices held near the top for the crop, but rye was lower with wheat, and the flax market was dull. Considerable liquidation in the wheat market carried future. prices to the lowest point on the crop, but at the lower levels some export demand developed, and at the close of the week the market was in a relatively firmer position. The movement of wheat to the European markets from the southern hemisphere continues of large volume, but is being readily ab- sorbed. Trade estimates of the amount of wheat that will be required by the Eu- ropean consuming countries have been increased, and it is estimated that im- port requirements will average around 16,000,000 bushels per week during the remainder of the crop year. At the close of the week Argentine wheat in Liverpool was being quoted at $1.52 per bushel and Canadian wheat at $1.7344. American red winter wheat was quoted at $1.46 and the lower price resulted in fairly large sales of red winter wheat from the United States. Soft Wheat Demand Slow. The domestic demand for soft red winter was slow, as mills were taking only small amounts because of the limited demand for flour. No. 2 red winter was being quoted at Toledo at $1.30-$1.31, at Cincinnati at $1.29 and at St. Louis at $1.2714-$1.28. Export bids for soft red winter were around $1.86 a bushel at New Orleans. Pre- miums for high protein hard winter wheat held steady, but the lower pro- tein types were about 1 cent lower. Twelve per cent protein No. 2 hard winter was quoted at the close of the week at Kansas City at about 3 cents over the May price, which closed March 25 at $1.25%. Thirteen per cent was uoted at 4 cents to 5 cents over the ay. Seeniums for desirable types of spring wheat were firmer, as a jesult 6f light receipts and a slight improve- ment in the demand for flour. Twelve cent protein No. 1 dark Northern gold at Minneapolis at 2 cents to 6 cents over the May, which closed March 25 at $1.324%. Thirteen per cent pro- tein was selling at 4 cents to 8 cents over the May. Durum prices held steady throughout the week, although demand was slightly less active. No. 1 amber was quoted at Minneapolis at 10 cents to 25 cents over the Duluth May, which closed at $1.41% on March 25, but the Duluth premiums were slightly lower, ranging from 10 cents to 22 cents over the May for Nos. 1 and 2 amber. Pacific coast markets continued rela- tively firmer than other domestic mar- kets aS a result of a fair buying by ex- porters. Soft and Western white wheats were selling for export at Port- land at the close of the week at $1.33 per bushel with producers selling slowly. . It is estimated by the trade that not over 15 per cent of last year’s crop remains to be marketed, but new crop prospects are excellent for both winter and spring wheat. Future Prices Down. While future prices were forced sharply downward. by liquidation of holders because of the continued light commercial demand for the large mar- ket stocks, there was a firme: tone in the market for cash grain at practically all of the important markets with the exception of Chicago. Recelpts were relatively light, reflecting the bad con- dition of country roads and the begin- ning of spring work on farms. South- ern demand ‘continues of small volume, but there were moderate sales to the Pacific coast from Kansas City and to the consuming areas of Kansas and Ne- braska from other central Western markets. The light receipts were readily taken _ gt Minneapolis, and some export sales ' \ere reported at seaboard markets. Prices of No. 3 yellow ranged from un- changed to about 1 cent lower at the principal markets, being quoted at Chicago at 68 @68% cents, at Minneap- olis at 67@69 cents, at St. Louls at 71 @72 cents, at Omaha at 68@68'4 cents and at Kansas City at 72@73\ cents. The oats market for both cash and futures made declines of about 1 cent per bushel, reflecting the .imited de- mand and the favorable prospects for the new crop in the South. Rye was lower with wheat, but at the decline some export business developed, and sales estimated at around 500,000 bush- els were made to Germany, Denmark and France. About 100,000 bushels were worked from Omaha for export via the gulf. It was reported also that a ntage of the rye in store at uth had been sold for export to go out after the opening of navigation. The barley market alone was firm, best types selling at practically all the central Western markets near the high point of the crop. The offerings of malting types are not equal to the mar- ket methods, and these are selling at arounc 75@85 cents a bushel at the principal markets. Choice malting was quoted at Minnea at 72@75 cents, at Chicago at 75@81 cents and special No, 2 at Milwvukee at rwukee, at 80.085 cents. DAILY COTTON COTTON MARKET.

The board of governors of Washing- ton chapter, American Institute of Banking, have decided to hold a “Spring Open Meeting and Dance,” on April 21, at the Hotel Willard, accord- ing to announcement yesterday by 1. Hunton Leith, president of the chap- ter. This meeting was planned after re- ceipt of the certificates for students in the educational courses which had been granted them for completion of courses which ended with final examinations at the conclusion of the first semester in the middle of January. Heretofore certificates have been held at national headquarters in New York for deiivery along with others at the September graduation exercises. In view of the fact that the number of students re- ceiving certificates for work completed in January was so large, the number being 268 and the greatest in chapter history, it was deemed expedient to present the diplomas at this time. Bank Call As of March 23. A surprise was sprung on lt ager ton banks yesterday when J. W. Intosh, comptroller of the aetna. issued a call for statement of condition as of March 23. The preceding call was made in January and dated back to December 31, so that the call of yes- terday was hardly expected so soon. While it was impossible to get com- plete figures on deposits in the banks, due to the early Saturday closing, enough institutions were heard from to justify the surmise that funds on de- posit in local institutions will show an increase over December 31, despite the heavy withdrawals for payment of taxes on March 15, although the in- crease will be slight. Heavy Trading in Gas Shares.

Capital Traction was unchanged at 106; Washington Railway & Electric preferred sold in two small lots at 915%; Lanston Monotype sold in two odd lots at 95, while a single share of District National Bank moved at 246.

C., March 26 (By A. P.).—Circuit Judge William H, Crimball today signed an ‘order allowing the automobile service stations in Charles- ton eounty to remain open Sunday for the sale of gasoline and motor olls, The order, which restrains Sheriff J. M. Poulnots; Chief State Constable Carlos Rector and all other officers® from interfering with sale of these commodities, was signed, the judge said, because he believed they fell within the class designated by the law as necessities. He said that “in view of the uni- versal use of motor transportation to- day, the sale of these commodities falls within the class designated by the law as ‘necessities,’ just as much as the operation of the railroads.” The issue came upon a petition of the Charles- ton Oil Co. asking an injunction to permanently restrain interference by the afficers with the sales on Sunday of gasoline and motor oils and orders that Sheriff Poulnot and Chief Con- stable Rector show cause before him April 8 why such an injunction should not be granted. Mayor Thomas P, Stoney of Charles- ton today telegraphed Gov, John Rich- ards a vigorous protest against the coming to the city of a force of twelve to fifteen State constables, as reported by the sheriff. Branding the proposed visit of. the officers as “unwarranted” and “high handed,” Mayor Stoney urged citizens to “avoid giving these tnvaders, if they come, any excuse for violating the peace of the Sabbath day in this community.” The mayor said, “We have been very submissive in this whole fanatical crusade.” Sheriff Poulnot says the chief execu- tive has not altered his original instruc- tions to enforce the blue laws. >| Federal Charge Made In Cruelty Case Information against Olin Offutt, un- der bond on charges of inhumanely treating animals on his stock farm near Fairfax, Va., was filed yesterday in the solicitor’s office, Department of Agri- culture, by an investigator from the division of animal husbandry, who charges Offutt moved stock into Mary- land without a permit certifying as to its health. .

FOREIGNERS IN CHINA. _ The arrival at Shanghai of Chang Kai- shek, commander-in-chief of the Can- tonese forces, will probably mark the end of the chaotic conditions at Nanking and elsewhere which endangered the lives of foreigners. Chang Kai-shek is in touch with the foreign commanders. He ias every incentive to work in cooperation with them in protecting their nationals. Nothing is to be gained by the Chinese nationalists in running afoul of the foreign forces, which they will surely do ‘if they indulge in antiforeign attacks. Although Chang Kai-shek is supposed to be hampered by a “military council” appointed through soviet influences, which are only too eager to involve China in difficulties with the “imperialist” na- tions, he is still commander-in-chief and is a man of ability and resolution. The course he has followed thus far, in har- mony with the policy of the Cantonese government as represented by Eugene Chen, has been beyond reproach so far as protection of foreign life is concerned. The Cantonese government intends, if possible, to eliminate foreign control of Chinese affairs, but it is not waging war on foreign governments cr their na- tionals. Its first aim is to overcome the northern Chinese army and to obtain control of all China. What will happen after that object has been attained 1s for the future to determine; but unless tke Cantonese are under the sway of com- munists, they will negotiate with foreign governments and achieve peaceably what they desire. The United States and Great Britain have already signifed their will- ingness to make new treaties with a new government as soon as it is establisned. If Russian communism has obtained vhe ascendency in the counsels of the Can- tonese, antiforeign violence may be looked for, with unfortunate results for all concerned. Notwithstanding the pessimistic ex- pressions of Sir Esme Howard and others, there is reason to believe that the nationalist movement in China is cap- able of overruling the communists, and will do so. One reason for this be!lirf is ‘the fact that the Cantonese government has already carried on negotiations with Great Britain in regard to Hankow, with every prospect of an amicable solution of the problems involved. The United States is sending addi- tional marines to Shanghai as a precau- tionary measure, to deal with the situa- tion if the native armies should get out of hand and begin to attack Americans. |. This action is not inconsistent with the maintenance of close relations with Chang Kai-shek, in the hope that he will enforce discipline and protect foreigners. In this critical period, while the civil war is at its height, the American Minis- ter should be instructed to issue peremp- tory orders to all American citizens to go to a place of safety. Loyal Americans, whether missionaries or business men, will perceive that they have no right to embroil this country for their sake, when by small sacrifice they can save them- selves. THE REED COMMITTEE. _ The resignation of Senator Goff from the Reed “slush fund” committee raises the interesting question whether Vice President Dawes will appoint a succes- Sor and thereby recognize the claim that a committee did not expire with the ‘ninth Congress.

In later years, ably supervised by a compe- tent and conscientious planning commis- sion, aided wholeheartedly by a -public spirited zoning commission administer- ing stringent zoning laws, the District has passed through the transition from small town to metropolis with only minor surface injuries to its plan. The growth of Washington can not be stopped. Provision must be made for still greater populations, and the growth will continue to “spill over” the boundary lines into the neighboring Maryland and Virginia communities. Such populaticn will continue to be essentially Washing- tonian. For it, schools, streets, lights, water, parkways and sanitary conve- niences must‘be provided. Zoning laws must be established. Police protection must be provided. These and other phases of community life must be mod- eled up to the standard of the District of Columbia. | Washington is gratified that the two State legislatures have proved their comprehensive grasp of the situation and have passed or are about to pass legisla- tion to provide the necessary machinery. It appreciates the fact that the State gov- ernments are about, to contribute in so material a fashion toward the proper development of. the metropolitan area. More important, however, is the fact that the thousands of Washingtonians who in the future are destined to take up resi- dence in Maryland and Virginia will find an attractive community in which to live, one which is well built, well guarded and well planned. DIPLOMACY IN THE POSTOFFICE. If President Coolidge should ever be confronted with the necessity of select- ing a new Secretary of State he should not overlook the members of his own cabinet, with especial reference to the outstanding qualifications of Postmaster General Harry New. Mr. Coolidge would not be without a precedent for making such an appointment. President Arthur elevated Postmaster General Gresham to the Secretaryship of the Treasury, and some years later President Cleveland in- | vited that former Postmaster General, in with reference to parcel post arrange- ments with Cuba that he is entitled to be acclaimed as an international negotia- tor of the first rank. On January 1 of last year a convention for the interchange of parcels by post between Cuba and the United States went into effect. It was stipulated on the part of the “Queen of the Antilles” that unless Congress revised the admiris- trative clauses of the tariff law, so as to permit importation of Cuban cigars, che- roots and cigarettes in packages of less than 3,000, which is the minimum al-" lowed to be brought in under the present regulations, before the date when the agreement will expire, namely, before June 30 next, Cuba should have the right to abrogate the convention. Postmaster General New endeavcred to persuade Congress that such a change would be advantageous to both countries. Congress adjourned without action upon. the recommendation. To prevent the abrogation of the agree- ment the Postmaster General dispatched. his second assistant, W. Irving Glover, to Havana to. plead with the Cuban ad- ministrative authorities to give him an- other chance. He has reported to his chief the successful outcome of his mis- sion. There will be no abrogation of «he parcels post convention before March of next year. During the interim Post- master: General New hopes to be able to convince Corigress that the change which Cuba seeks is in every way desirable. Some skeptic may be prone to inquire wherein Ras incident can be construed as exhibiting “outstanding diplomatic abili- ty.” The statement of the Postoffice De- partment accompanying the announce- ment of the success of Mr. Glover’s mis- sion answers that question conclusively: For the calendar year 1926, the United ~ States sent to Cuba 253,000 packages of over 8 ounces in weight. During the same period Cuba sent to this country 21,000 packages. In the number of packages exchanged between the two countries the , advantage was with the United States in: a ratio of more than 12 to 1. The aver-: age weight of packages sent by the United ' ) States during that period was a trifle over, 7 pounds, while the average weight of |

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The musical world is celebrating at this time the centenary of the death of Lud- wig van Beethoven. One hundred years ago yesterday on March 26, 1827, Bee- thoven died in his lodgings in Vienna. He passed away amid the crashes of a thunderstorm, a dramatic setting for the passing of a heroic immortal. Beethoven was born at Bonn, now fa- mous as his birthplace, and as the seat of a great university. The town has a picturesque setting on the swift-flowing Rhine, with the “Seven Mountains” in the distance. Here he lived his early years. Winding streets lead to narrower ways, and in one of these, Bonn alley, the composer was born. The little two- story house still stands. One may enter through a low doorway, and at the head of a narrow flight of stairs is the small room in which Beethoven first saw the light. The entrance to the room, as seen, was corded. The floor had been worn by many feet. Flowers were scattered over its splintered sur- face, and flowers are daily brought by loving hands of visiting pilgrims to this shrine, In the rear of the house was a little yard. He must often have played there, Beethoven's early years were troubled, his home life clouded, friends few. The van Breunings, mother and daughter, gentle people, gave to him the first significance of books apd culture. Bee- thoven never forgot "these devoted friends. Then later, in early manhood, on to Vienna, where fame awaited him. Socialistic in tendency, he yet strong friends and patrons among the nobility. He was admired for his genius, respected for his rugged honesty and independence of thought, and tolerated in his eccentricities. If ever a man lived among the stars, it was Beethoven. His mortal function- ing seemed automatic. Home cares, that most mortals learn to accept cheerfully if not gracefully, were irksome and impossible for him. His servant play- fully went by the name of “Satanas.” A remark in one of his letters seems quite modern. “The new cook comes tomorrow, Gold help us.” Beethoven, under stress of composing, lived much to himself. His friends were few. Iso- lation and deafness made him sensitive and suspicious of motives. But a noble and affectionate nature dwelt under a rugged exterior. One may read of this in his letters to a scapegoat of a nephew. He writes to him as “my be- loved son,’ and his outpourings are those of a distressed and tender father. Beethoven's idealization of woman was significant. In his one opera of Fidelio, woman’s devotion as wife has mever been more touchingly portrayed. His own life was a constant vision of feminine. love, never realized or re- turned. This and an overwhelming sympathy for nature were two inspi- rational elements in his work. He loved the fields; the rocks and the woods, and his musical ideas and themes were mostly jotted down in the open. His compositions were slowly and painstak- ingly done, each work being a gradual evolution of thought, feeling and de- velopment. — There are many portraits of Beetho- ven. The well-known life-mask, severe in countenance, may not depict his usual expression or do him justice, for Beethoven at ‘this time, with plaster over his face and quills in: his nostrils, was impatient and» iQUS. . Friends and those’ Who castally vis- ited Beethoven have frequently spoken of his graciousness and consideration. His nature was essentially noble and kind. He had a rough humor and playful names for his friends. His let- ters are many, some written with the ease and suavity of a diplomat. Bee- thoven was a man of culture, spoke French, loved the German and Greek poets and knew his Shakespeare well, What he did not get from books, he plucked from the stars. Words,’ an an inferior medium, can tell us little of Beethoven’s music. It must be its own interpreter. An imi- tator first of Haydn and Mozart, he later, from transcendent spirit, shat- tered the earlier forms and grew in his own powerful way. His plummet sank dceply and instinctively into human, cosmic and universal relations, and by projecting these profound ele- ments through music he reflexively arouses the nobler and submerged strata of human consciousness and feeling. It has been said that the spiritual regeneration of the world will come through the arts. If this be true, surely the music of Ludwig van Beethoven has been, and exists now, as one of the greatest forces to stimulate and quicken the human heart. A grateful world gives him homage today.

Finney, Acting Secretary of Interior, Who™ Points Out That 19,849,762 Acres Were Vacant in Wy- oming When Commissioners Filed Report for Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1926. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Your editorial of March 23, “Do You Want a Homestead?” is apparently based on a misapprehension. It is believed the following facts will interest your read- ers: The report of the commissioner of the general land office for the fiscal yea: ended June 30, 1926, shows that there were on that date 19,849,762 acres of vacant, unappropriated and unre- served public land in Wyoming, of which 711,478 acres were s{ill unsur- veyed. The report also shows that there are four. district land offices in that State, located at Buffalo, Cheyenne, Evanston and Lander. The announcement on which the edi- torial was based was merely a routine announcement of a notice required by law to be made by the register of the district land office at Cheyenne of the filing of a plat of hitherto unsurveyed land. Public announcement of instruc- tions to district land officers to give public notice of the filing of plats of survey or the restoration to entry of withdrawn lands, and of the preference right accorded former service men in connection therewith, are made daily. The announcement referred to was an isolated case involving an extremely small area. The suggestion in the an- nouncement to the effect that there tight be preference rights superior to those granted’ by law to former service men had reference to the possibility of rights acquired by settlement prior to the survey of the land. If the land is unoccupied, the former service man has @ preference right under the law. The editorial refers to the passage of the homestead law 65 years ago, and the apparent unsuitability for home- stead entry of the remaining public domain. The report of the commis- sioner of the general land office for the last fiscal year shows that in the State of wee alone 1,192 original home- stead entriés. were made, and 2,214 homestead entries were perfected by the submission of “final proof,” and but one was “commuted” by the payment of $1.25 per acre, A large portion of the public is under the impres@ion-that the homestead law is the only method of procuring title to public land: The published land Office report.- SPY s ‘ine \ Hell . ~~ / Mid “ee 4 e. bie oe | ie : r a * > d Pate Pay wet ee : by suite isting of Drop- * f :" bias i * ing s Ok > 1 wi: ] ; io we: tw ; hy , 4 car We * * Pig i ng . ° P , « j £'@ 2 . } i 7 : e : f ; : is very ¢ ctive, arcn- 5 a ee Te Se: a. ah fo ss ; abr - aes 4 , : va Dak Ts tig? - - tae. ? ini - a: 7 ‘ > : : a nah hy le Le ; ‘ j : . ~ ’ : : i rv a y e , » : te . : j ‘ : “ ‘ i te : a Se. : ae 7 4 . . ‘ te eh a> Y, 2 . . * ‘ ; vs % _- - ‘ a . ps ra fee % ; 8 : x rf) ro’ A oe i eseeee= “ beat ta A eee oe tet bt 2 hp, nd Baie em, Sy : A okt S Sr ier i gta SAAC PE. oP rs Fest 7 Rie 9 Ba alo tty 5 ao, Willen Pe eee Se gs 2a ieee eget ee ; Se Bets a ha i Bie ee (Ores < ‘ é .

I-CAREME—and Lent half over! Washington society, having worn with more or less faithfulness the sackcloth and ashes of repentance, now turns mentally to the prospect of Easter joys and the gayeties Of the post-Easter season, always-one of the most enjoyable periods of the calendar. The outstanding event of Mi-Careme will be #he Spanish fiesta, a joyous affair which is just a more picturesque name for a ball with @ strong Hispanic flavor. The diplomats of Latin America, par- tloularly, as well as those of the Spanish people appear greatly interested in the form this benefit for the Monticello fund is taking end will attend the ball virtually en masse. @ociety generally is subscribing for the boxes end there is every sign it will be one of the most brilliant events of the season. Tomor- row night in the ballroom of the Mayflower the fiesta is scheduled to be held, and dancing and merriment will mark this temporary ces- gation in the social restrictions of Lent, There will be flags of eighteen Latin-Ameri- ean countries used for decoration, and over the balustrades of the boxes draperies of colored silks will be hung. Embroidered Spanish shawls will be much in evidence and gay flags will add to the color scheme. Later is no gainsaying the fact that the National Capital 4s at its loveliest in the spring and little by little the season lengthens until we may soon be in the position of London, which observes its fashionable season in the late spring and early summer. The usual ab- sence of Congress from Washington at that particular period, however, might mitigate to some extent against the extension of the formal season to that time, although there is no reason why the informal season should not run as late as those interested care to have it. + * oJ e fi idan pleasures of Easter for the President and Mrs. Coolidge came a little early this year in the arrival at the temporary White House Thursday of their son, Mr. John C, Coolidge, for his Easter holidays. While early; young Mr. Coolidge’s vacation time is comparatively short as he will be in Wash- ington for only eight days and then must return to Amherst. So Mrs. Coolidge and her tall son made the most of their time to- gether and all other engagements were gently refused in order that the first lady of the land might carry out her custom of devoting all her time to her son during his visits.

~*~ “- By VYLLA POE WILSON which fills aw craze for things psychological, | the modern world with a plethora of complexes, has | reached the realm of clothes, and the | phrase “the psychology of clothes” is | heard on all sides. What those who use it really mean | by it is a problem. The critical mind- | ed might even be a trifie dubious as | to whether those who so glibly mouth the phrase always know the exact rea- son they do so. For judging from the way some women select their clothes it might easily be conjectured that | everything except psychology had en- tered into the choice of them. But, as a rule, American women have a decided psychology of clothes, | and conditions of femininity. it is followed by all kinds and | Naturally, | the stage, the cinema, leaders Of 680- | clal importance leaders in other fields have their full share in forming this Nevertheless, the chief “charm the clothes of American women is in- and great women. psychology. | about | dividuality of type, and this trait is| maintained when it comes to the mat- | ter of the mode as well. In discussing the psychology of | clothes two important elements are | their place—line and color. There are many who think that line is the im- | portant factor in successful dressing, while others say color is the predomi- nant element. There is no doubt that fashion dictates color as well as form. That is why some seasons the fem- inine world may be seeing “pink” and next fall “red.” It might be said that each season has its fashionable color. Yet to adopt a color, even if becoming, simply be- cause it is fashionable is the height) of sartorial folly. Must Harmonize With Eyes. The harmony of one’s type of ,color- ing to the hue of the garment is the paramount issue where tone is. to be considered. Many women make the mistake of harmonizing their clothes to thé color of their hair rather than to their eyes. The really artistic dress harmonizes with the color of the eyes. That is the permanent color note. of the human face. The hair may change its tint with the passage of years or the skillful ma- nipulation of the beauty specialist; the roses that adorn blushing cheeks may be purchasable at the corner drug store and absent otherwise, but the eyes of early childhood will be the same in hue and to a remarkable degree in ex- pression in the adult. It is strange but true, and probably due to the complex nature of ancestral strains in this coun- try, but “the pure blonde” and the “pure brunette” are becoming exceed- ingly rare and what we usually see are variants of these types. There is a compensation in this in that ther are more variants in kind than in other periods of the world’s history and that the clever modiste can find just the proper tint to harmonize in tone quality with any one of them. So one of the first things for the woman to do who is interested in dress- ing at her very best in every sense of the word is to discover her color sym- pathies and cling to them with unfail- ing fidelity. Else she can not truth- fully be regarded as a person of dis- criminating taste. The smartness of wool for spring frocks is an inheritance from that cen- ter of fashion, Paris, where the wool gown has well nigh pushed silk into the background. Perhaps the predic- tion that 1927 would be a year without a summer was primarily responsible for the rise of wool in the markets of fash- ion. But whatever may have been. the reason it was a successful one. Clothes Must Have Wool in Them. The dictum is absolute. It may be a silk and wood mixture if one is par- tial to the output of the busy silk worm, but wool it must be. And so, wool it is. Spring clothes for Washington will be much the same as they have been for Palm Beach, Aiken, Cuba, Miami and the other smart playgrounds of the South, and the vogues which will lead on the Speedway, the country clubs and the horse show will be the jumper frock, the one-piece dress, the popular cardigan jacket, the tailored suit and the separate blouse. Washington shops have ultra-smart varieties of all of these, and there is no need for the patriotic Washingtonian to shop else- where for these necessary articles. “Shop in Washington” has ‘gained a new meaning with our modistes and shops not only providing the ultra- smart models but originating styles and vogues as well. , In remembering what is de rigeur for spring wear it is well not to forget that small folk appear at their best, too, in smart frocks. As a matter of fact, chicness and smartness in children’s clothes is one of the most promising fields in the matter of satisfaction. For children dress up well. Nowadays children, particularly girls, take a greater interest in their appearance than formerly. As a general thing children find life itself such a thrilling matter that mere clothes have but small place in their thoughts. Clothes are something which can very well be left to the attention of tiresome and meticulous elders, For girls we find the fashions of their mothers appearing in their tiny frocks. They, too, are made on the jumper lan, while sweater jackets are the de- ight of any child’s heart, especially if poe'd have pockets. Wool is very chic this spring for the child as well as the adult, and it very often takes the form of jersey, while organdie, dimity and fine lawn are in the offing for later spring and dainty afternoon wear be- fore the Sandman comes, and the chil- dren’s hour on the omnipresent radio. Fine Gowns for Birthday Parties, One of Washington’s most enjoyable forms of entertaining is in celebration of birthday anniversaries. Birthday parties with cakes and presents are not confined to children’s affairs by any means in Washington’s smart set. Many of the most interesting of the social events of a week are the birthday anni- versary celebrations when the members of the family and friends gather for intimate festive enjoyment. It is on these occasions that the handsome din- ner gowns in trousseaux and from ward- robes purchased Overseas are‘at their best breathing, as they do, a touch of beauty and hominess as well. At a recent birthday party given here, ————— | | Peewee wa et VS 2 4 At eA ee ne @ novel idea was the table designed os the hostess and executed by a local firm of caterers which represented a huge round pink and white frosted cake sur- rounded by candles in rose holders. The dinner was served on a ledge which ran about the cake exactly like a flat plate. There were gifts for each guest at the end of the ribbons leading from the in- dividual plates vo the center of the cake. No matter what they may do any- where else, in Washington the type of evening gown with the longer and very wide skirt is gaining in popularity with both matron and maid. There is a decided tendency also to- ward a softer arrangement of the hair® although fluffy locks have not yet re- placed the sleek lines of the close bob. In spite of the protests of many of their friends who wish to insure the permanency of the bob many of the smartest women and girls are letting their hair grow. But, of course, on the other hand, some of those who have clung to long hair until the present have had their hair cut. It might be said that bobbed hair is still the vogue with here and there a woman being able to retain her hair or let it grow and still look smart and chic. There are some types in whom the bobbed hair is not becoming or on whom it fails of smartness. Mrs. Coolidge Wears Red. Mrs; Coolidge wore at the luncheon given in her honor by the Women’s National Press club a dress of dark red satin, made with batwing sleeves, and hanging scarf collar, and a hat of black satin with a band fitted close to her head and soft high circle crown.

Her hat is a high- crowned one of straw and satin. Many women of fashion are adopting the ao so despised in fashion cricles for a period. These are worn with suits and are either linen, ging- ham or satin. To be really smart with the tailored suit the shirtwaist must be as well tailored as the suit itself and have a belt in the back very much like thoge on men’s vests. In fact, many of these waists button in front like a man’s double-breasted vest. Differ From Overblouse. .This type of waist is quite apart from the dressy overblouse. of lace, chiffon or crepe, many of which have @ narrow |' _band for a color tied in a bow at the side. The lease of life of the wrap ovef- coat has been brought about by the introduction of the ribbon or large bow tie as a fastening. In fact, Dame Fashion is evidently very eager to grasp at any straw which will give her an excuse for including a bow of some kind in her style creations., She is often not satisfied with one bow to a costume, but Nas a series of the sometimes, it may be acknowledged: not with an altogether happy result. The large tulle chou which seem to)|' have invaded the ranks of Washington |! society during the last ‘week seem to |;! be growing in number and proportion. Even Mrs. Coolidge, who is ultra-con- servative in the matter of clothés, has been seen several times lately with one of very goodly proportions poised on the shoulder of her evening gown. These chodx make a welcome note of relief if they ‘are becoming and well placed on the severely simple lines of |. some of the evening and dinner dresses. ~~ er ~ 9 A ERG AETIE O RETR Aidiet tate te 06: sknoet indispensable piece, ‘one con parte g a or $525 ° ° Giese sre S a. — ~~ 2s So 2 ~ Mm ~ The furniture illustrated here has been used in a Model Living Room which hey be seen on our fourth floor. lt shows how all the desirable features ofthe modern iad room may be charmingly combined at a minimum expenee.

The major screen feature will be D. W. Grif- ’ fith’s special production in nine full reels for Paramount of Marie Corelli's engrossing story of “The Sorrows of Satan,” with Adolphe Menjou in the role of Satan and Carol Dempster, Ricardo Cortez and Lya de Putti con- spicuously cast. New Vitaphone sub- jects again will offer the principal aux- liiary features of the bill, the con- tributing artists this week being Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, foremost of the world’s contraltos, and Roy Smecs., clever and versatile young in- Sstrumentalist who does remarkable things with the Hawaliann guitar, ukulele and banjo. Other supplemen- tary attractions will include a new issue of the Metropolitan World Sur- vey and a specially arranged concert petite by the Metropolitan Symphony orchestra under the conductorship of Daniel Breeskin. This feature of the bill will be in observance of the Heetkoven centennial. In “The Sorrows of Satan” Griffith has brought to the screen further dem- onstrations of his uncanny ability to achieve astonishing photographic ef- fects. Nothing more striking has been projected upon the silver sheet than the opening scene of this conspicuously artistic film in which Lucifer is ban- ished from keaven. This, however, is not the only extraordinary photography revealed during the progress of this absorbing modern drama of youth and its temptations. The character of Satan as portrayed by Adolphe Menjou is not the familiar Mephistopheles of “Faust,” for exam- ple, with red horns and pitchfork, but & modern mystic of immense power, magnetic personality and brooding na- ture. With us at all times he is not a ‘superbeing, but the man who might reasonably live next door. The roles portrayed by Ricardo Cortez and Carol Dempster permit them opportunities to reveal the full scope of their inter- pretat#@ power. As two struggling young writers whose poverty compels them to live in the garrets of London: these two offer character studies in striking contrast to those contributed to a sterling ensemble by Menjou and Prince Lucio de Rimanez, a man of wealth, polish and social preeminence, and Lya de Putti, as Princess Olga, the sirenic creature with whom Geoffrey Tempest falls in love to the intense anguish of Mavis Claire, his bethrothed. The sudden elevation of Tempest to tremendous wealth through the in- strumentality of the prince enables Griffith to introduce scenes of revelry which are startling in their frankness, but still well within the bounds of propriety and distinguished by artistic embellishment that lends them real dignity. Not an emotion, not a mood, not a nuance in the development of the Corelli story which might add to the effectiveness of the pictured scenes has been overlooked by Griffith. “CARNIV AL WEEK” ON AT PALACE “Carnival week,” the second of the cycle of four special unit-show pres- entations recently announced: by Loew’s Palace theater, will be ushered in this afternoon, with an appropriate group of stage and screen attractions. The photoplay feature of “Carnival week” will be the latest Metro-Gold- Wyn-Mayer’ starring production for John Gilbert, “The Show,” in which the great star of “Flesh and the Devil,” “Bardelys, the Magnificent,” “The Big Parade” and “The Merry Widow,” is supported by Renee Adoree and Lionel Barrymore in a thrilling mystery romance of continental circus life, which resembles closely the theme of Ferenc Molnar’s celebrated stage success, ‘“‘Liliom.” “The Show” reveals Mr. Gilbert in the role of Cock Robin, an actor and announcer in a Budapest sideshow called “The Palace of Illusion,” who ig arrogant, selfish and preys on the \women of his class and who is in constant conflict with a sinister under- world character who loves the side- show beauty. From this human tri- angle has been evolved a_ gripping story of revenge and love triumphant. The stage attractions of “Carnival week” are brilliantly headed by Jack Sidney Cameo record star and the peer of all entertainers, who will offer a geries of character songs. Other outstanding attractions will be Tommy Christian’s ‘“‘Melodyphiends,” an orchestra ensemble of originality and zest; Drena Beach, sensational acrobatic dancer from Texas Guinan’s “300 club,” whose success at the Pal- ace last week warrants a holdover for eanother week; a brilliant symphonic overture by the Palace Conceyt or- chestra, Thomas J. Gannon, conductor; the Loew's Palace magazine and other house features. Beethoven Centenary Celebrated Tuesday The program for the Philadelphia orchestra concert in the auditorium Tuesday afternoon serves a two-fold purpose in that it commemorates the centenary of the death of Beethoven, which is being celebrated everywhere throughout the musical world by the usion of the overture to “Egmont” hd the Eighth symphony, and presents Rachmaninoff as soloist in his latest piano concerto, the fourth. The program opens with the “Eg- mont” overture, based on Goethe's ver- sion of the ancient tale. It is followed by the Eighth symphony in F, which will be played without pause between the movements. This symphony was ‘written in 1812 at Linz, where Bee- thoven had gone in’ an effort to re- “gain his health. This period of his life is an ayo ce one, for it was rked 1 e€ unpleasant law suit ced upon him by his unworthy sis- ter-in-law and undertaken in in- Verest of ess nephew. otwith- standing tice depressing events the yymphony is one of the brightest, most umorous Dolores Del Ria “Resurrection” \" : —Rialto.

ALL-STAR CAST PLAYS TRELAWNY One of the greatest casts ever assem- bled for a play will appear here to- morrow night for a one-week engage- ment in “Trelawny of the Wells.” George C. Tyler’s imposing cast comes to the National theater, following its one week in Boston, John Drew, Peggy Wood, O. P. Heggie, Helen Gahagan, Otto Kruger, Estelle Winwood, Rollo Peters, John E, Kellerd, Effie Shannon, Lawrence D’Orsay, J. M. Kerrigan, Eric Dressler and Frieda Inescort head the roster of the theater’s great and near- great, which, in its nine weeks at the New Amsterdam theater, New York, broke every house record at that very large and famous playhouse. “Trelawny of the Wells” is that fond, plaintive romance of the theater which ‘Pinero wrote 30 years ago, and which, being really no more of its own time than ours, now seems ageless and des- tined to linger longer on the stage than any of his more notable and more adult’ plays. It has a Dickensy warmth that no audience can resist. Mr. Tyler could not have chosen a better play for such a revival. For “Trelawny” is a comedy actors love. It tells a story of actors and their love of acting, even of their love for one another, their loyalty, their vani- ties, their humiliations and their suc- cesses. Actors can’t help but play the famous Pinero comedy affectionately. It has no star part—with a dozen sub- sidiary roles that are both stock and incidental, Every one of its parts were real to Pinero—taken from his life— and in “Trelawny” every one of-its 20- odd characters gets his bit. Sidney Versatile. Jack Sidney, character songster, Cameo record star and master of cere- monies of the,“Carnival week" p.o at Loew’s Palace this afterncon, is on2 ue POLIS OPENS NOTEWORTHY ENGAGEMENT Tonight Winthrop Ames’ noted Gil- bert and Sullivan Opera company will commence a week’s engagement at Poli’s theater.

Following is the schedule of per- formances arranged for the local en- gagament—‘Iolanthe” will be heard to- night, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs- day evenings and at the Thursday matinee; “The Pirates of Penzance” will be the attraction tomorrow and Friday and Saturday evenings and at the Saturday matinee. .

Heading the feminine division is Ethael Albertini, the Italian prima donna, whose range of classical songs include lyrics in Spanish, French (her native tongue), as well as English. ' Inez Marvin, the ingenue, a singer and dancer, is also proficient as a vio- linist. and as a specialist in “blues” songs. Elsie Stock is rated one of the prettiest girls in burlesque.

KEITH’S SCHEDULES SMART WEEK Certainly all signs at B. F. Keith’s theater point to a smart week. No; in many weeks has there been a iincr array of talent scheduled for on2 bill. Probably the most important of al musical comedy stars, Cecil Lean and Cleo Mayfield, are taking the top hcn- ors. They are appearing in a new act. After many years of triumphs on the other side of the water, Wi'l Fyffe, Scotland’s character comedian, is mak- ing his first American tour ani will hold down the feature spot at Keith's for the week. Mr. Fyffe is said to bs far above the average comedian of his Class. In fact, he is heralded as easily standing on a par with Harry ‘Lauder. A big musical act, “Maddock’s Bag of Tricks,” will be the special attrac- tion for the week. This original and clever entertainment will feature Olga ‘Woods, Wally Crisham, and the R»>- tunno Brothers, and brings with it many new ideas in scenery and presen- tation. The great brain expert, Harry Kahne, will be seen in new ani greater mental. achievements, demonstrating his sk.ll at multiple concentration. Art Henry and company will be seen Se “A Rehearsal,” a new comedy offer- ng. Dick Nash and Billy McIntyre, those novel performers and local favorites call their act, the first time to be pre- sented, “When Extremes Meet.” Ameta, the Parisian mirror dancer, will entertain with her own original dance, “The Birth of a Butterfiy.” Sawyer and Eddy will thrill in an aerial novelty and the usual screen features, Aesop's Fables, Topics of the Day and the Pathe News P.ctorial, ‘will complete the bill. Philharmonic Course Soon. Comes to End The final Wilson-Greene concert of the 1926-27 musical season will be given at Poli’s theater on Friday after- noon, April 8, at 4:30 o’clock, when Lawrence Tibbett, barytone, and Eliza- ‘beth, Rethberg, soprano, both of the Metropolitan Opera company, will ap- pear in joint recital as the last concert in the philharmonic course of after- noon musical events. Lawrence Tibbett’s sensational tri- umph on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera house in “Falstaff” is still fresh in the minds of American music lovers, and paved the way to his further oper- atic triumphs in Ravel's “L’Heure Es- pagnol,” which was produced by the Metropolitan for the first time this sea- son. He is making a limited tour of the larger cities in concert. — Elizabeth Rethberg, Metropolitan so- prano, is another’ operatic star, who has risen to the heights within the last few seasons. Although Mr, Tibbett is en American of California stock, Miss Rethberg is of continental birth, "who came to the Metropolit-a after suc- nd '| Columbia theater. Barrymore's first ‘SLIDE, KELLY, | SLIDE,’ OPENS AT COLUMBIA A hilarious romance of the national game, which enlists the talents of a spectacular list of screen and diamond celebrities will open its first Wasning- ton engagement at Loew’s Columbia, this afternoon when Metro-Goldwyn* Mayer presents, as the featured offer- ing of the Columbia's bill, ‘Slide Kelly, Slide,” Edward Sedgwick’s production of the story by A. P. Younger. William Haines, star of “Brown of Harvard,” and recently featured at Loew’s Columbia with Lon Chaney in “Tell It to the Marines,” finds his great- est role to date, it is said, as the hero on this thrillixig and comic baseball romance, while Sally O'Neil, Dorothy Sebastian, Harry Carey, Karl Dane, Warner Richmond, Irish and Bob Meu- sel, Tony Lazzeri, Red Oldham and other stars of the screen and the base- ball field have prominent parts in the picture. “Slide, Kelly, Slide” includes some scenes from the world series games of 1926 in New York and glimpses as well of spring training camp activities in the Southland, and offers as well a romance of a bush-leaguer’s love for a ball play- er’s daughter. William Haines has the role of the bush-league bearcat who is drafted into the big show, taken under the wing of a slipping veteran and his only daugh- ter and with their help, becomes the star of the entire league. Succumbing to the intoxicating roar of the crowd and the success of his first year in the big leagues, the hero loses his head, repudiates the kindness of the slipping veteran and the whole ‘team’ turns against him. His big chance, however, comes when his team is battling in the world series and the incidents that lead up to his selection to pitch the crucigl battle and the manner in which he wipes out his past offenses and wins the girl makes a story of dynamic inter- est and intense romantic appeal. The management has arranged tO supplement first Washington showings of “Slide, Kelly, Slide,” with a Lupino Lane comedy, “Howdy Duke!” the Pathe newsreel pictures, and a splendid symphonic overture under the direction of Leon Brusilof. TOLSTOY FILM IS HELD OVER AT RIALTO “Resurrection” will be held over for @ second week at the Rialto. Few pic- tures in recent years have been ac- corded greater popular success and patronage than this picturization of Tolstoy’s famous novel starring Rod La Rocque and Dolores del Rio. The patronage has been so great that the capacity of the Rialto has been overtaxed and many were turned away last week at nearly every per- formance, therefore insuring the pic- ture a second successful week’s run. In the film version of ‘“Resurrec- tion” every human emotion described in Tolstoy’s immortal classic of love lost and regained is depicted in panto- mime. The joyous, care-free spirit of youth is to be found in the opening 6e- quences wherein the prince falls in love with the peasant ward of his aunts, and before the first reel is over that white love has turned to purpled passion. Then in rapid-fire succession come despair, abandonment, buoyant humor and utter indulgence; life death, spiritual rebirth following vile degradation, imprisonment, exile, bit- terness and yearning sacrifice and “resurrection” itself. The gamut of emotions through which Blanche Walsh on the stage and Mary Garden ‘in opera have swept the part of Katusha Maslova is now the course of Dolores del Rio in “Resur- rection,” while Rod La Rocque loves and leaves and loves again in the dra- matic role of Dmitri, the part which Sir Herbert Beerbohm-Tree created in London in 1903. The emotional scale is traversed by both Dmitri and Katusha in “Resur- rection,” and it is the one great story wherein man and woman alike suffer and triumph: in sacrifice. MISS POWERS NEW LEADING LADY HERE Leona Powers, who is not strange to Washington, has been signed as lead- ing lady for the National Theater Play- ers, beginning their third season at the “Laff That Off. Those who visited the refurbished President theater during its eight weeks of stock early last fall will re- about every essential for the ideal stock actress, Though» graduate of’ New York and road productions, she early developed a taste for repertoire, fore- going the spasmodic plaudits of Broad- way for year-’round work in a business she knows from start to finish. She has talent in almost excess abundance, a striking appearance and a wardrobe that speaks volumes both for her own lavish expenditures and for the prodi- gality of her employers. Miss Powers has appeared in stock in most of the country's leading centers, Prior to coming here early last Sep- tember she was for several seasons with the Henry Duffy Players in San Fran- cisco and Los Angeles. She interrupted an indefinite contract out there to ° come to the Capital in the role of Charmaine in “What Price Glory.” Probably her outstanding appearance here was in “They Knew What They Wanted.” ) The acquisition of Miss Powers is first confirmation of Director Clifford Brooke’s pledge to give Washington this summer the best stock company in its history. To that end both he and Manager Cochran have been con-_ ferring in New York this week, with the further purpose in mind of placing options on the first dozen plays to be considered, Barrymore ‘Independent.’ The recent decision of John Barry- more, star of “Don Juan” and other great stage and screen productiofis, to produce. his own pictures for United Artists’ release, will bring into the ranks of stars whose pictures | will be released in the future ten” Y dependent” prod 7 »* | : sa . 5 oe \ x, Pa, % ; * ie 5 ‘ai he Oe rie y : / Cor iM, ae: t National theater May 9 in the farce, ~~ call that Miss Powers combines Just’ uction, “The Beloved _ a Rogue,” will be given its Washington ==

$ : ~==By FELICIA PEARSON. HE overflow of young women in the movies and the comparative scarcity of young men seems to be leading First National,Pictures to take steps. Two traveling crews of picture men, with officials of the publicity department, started out from the studios last week to cover all the larger universities in the country in search of eligibles for male stardom. College Humor and local newspapers in the college towns are giving much space to the fact that young men, movically in- clined, may leap at this new and wonderful opening. Each college is to select 50 boys to be presented to Mr. Johnson and Mr. Holmes, captains of the college-cruising érews. Of these 50 there will~be 10 selected, who will be given quite elaborate screen tests. The tests will be brought back to the coast and submitted to a committee of production heads, who will choose freely. (There will 320 in all.) Each man chosen from the final 320 ‘will be given a $50-a-week salary for eight weeks during this coming summer, and all traveling expenses to and from the Burbank studios in California; but the young would-be star isn’t made yet. The last word will: be when he is finally selected for permanent employment by the company at a salary beginning at a hundred a-~week. Three hundred and twenty parents will shortly receive the following letters: “Dear Mother and Dad: ‘‘Have been selected for the motion pictures. becoming a Fairbanks. who you mean. Am well on the way to Address me care of Hollywood. They’ll know Your celebrated son, BILL.” 2 ” ° ° About 300 out of the 320 pdtrs of parents will be wringing their parental hands. But there is always this consolation—if worst comes to worst and he insists upon going—that if he lives through all the chooisng, selecting and shifting he must be awfully good. a * . * Lita Grey Chaplin threatens to return to films. impoverished from lack of alimony. 7 * & * * Cecil.

Anybody who wants to work in the movies after this ‘will have to go onto the movie pay roll and off Uncle Sam’s. : : * * Mr. and Mrs. Ricardo Cortez.are in a bad way. Mrs. Cortez, who is known to us as Alma Rubens, has- been withdrawn from “The Twa # Arabian Knights,” a United Artists picture, and Mary Astor has been put in her place.

These pens, it is explained, will act as automatic passes to the theater. There are lots of little boys who. would like to have been sent free passes engraved on pop guns. { - os & * There are three big baseball pictures coming along. One is ‘Slide, Kelly, Slide,” here this week; another is “‘Babe Comes Home,” with the celebrated Mr. Ruth, and there is “Casey at the Bat,” with Wallace Beery as Casey and Raymond Hatton right there, too, as always. s © * 7 John Barrymore goes on and on. No sooner is one picture off the griddle than another is started. Having just seen “Don Juan,” and waiting to see “The Beloved Rogue,” we hear that there is something more on the studio horizon. Is there no rest for the handsome? *s * * ye Now here is really good news. Famous Players is going to establish a board of scenario readers in New York. This group of men will devote itself to discussing ideas and plots with aspiring film playwrights, and to reading and purchasing: original stories for the screen. In the past, Famous Players and other companies have issued discouraging state- ments to those ‘who aspire to write for the screen. But this board will - not only consider and accept worth-while stories, no matter who writes them, but will begin a campaign of encouragement among writers of all classes in the: hope that the majority of scenarios filmed within the next year will be the ideas and plots submitted by amateur playwrights. , + * * * : The latest Broadway hits are: ‘“‘The Love of. Sunya,” with Gloria Swanson; “The Beloved Rogue,” with John Barrymore; “The Demi- Bride,” with Norma Shearer; “‘Easy Pickings,” with Anna Q. Nilsson; *“‘BHvening Clothes,” with Adolphe. Menjou, and “Slide, Kelly, Slidé,” with 5 William Haines. Then there is a large poster which reads: ‘‘Have You Séen the Big Parade?”’ s * & -Billie Dove has been very pleasant lately.

To tell you the plot of “Judy” at the Royale theater would be to repeat the story upon which musical comedies have been based for the last 20 years, A rich man’s son, desiring to become an artist, lives in Greenwich Village with several pals. He meets a poor girl; he and all the rest fall in love with her though her heart, unbeknown sto our hero, goes to him. The father artives, persuades the girl to give the hero tp as it would ruin his life if she did not; finds that she is worthy of his son, gives his ge wa to marriage, and all ends happi The music by 4 ‘Robin 1s nothing remarkable; the chorus ladies, though good dancers, have very evidently not been picked by Mr. Ziegfeld for their beauty, nor by Mr. Hammerstein for their voices. The principals, headed by Queenie Smith and Charles Purcell, are good, indeed. The men who play the pals to our hero are different from those usually found in @& musical show. s Tt is only isenia’ Smith, who plays Judy, that makes the play in any way different from the average—and she is very different from the average. This young woman demands attention whether she is particularly attractive to the individual spectator or not; one can not fajl to watch her. Just why is @ little difficult to satisfactorily ex- plain. She hasn't beauty as the world understands the term, her dancing and singing are but adequate and her act- ing lacks subtlety. Yet we can not take our eyes off her. Maybe it is be- cause of the remarkable contrast of her make-up. Her mouth is elflike, the sort of mouth that twitches downward at the corners when she smiles—and it can pout delightfully. Though her large eyes know this world a trifle bet- ter than her mouth seems to, her head suggest an acquaintance with the), fairies of some Never-Never-Never-Land. Her body, tough, lacks the delicacy of the head—it is vigorous, healthy, very much alive with the exuberance of mortality—her hands are large, the hands of a comedienne. In true musi- cal comedy vein she plays everything “straight out” to the audience, intent on what she does, determining to reach every soul in the large theater. She succeeds. I look at the Barrie-ish mouth and wish she would not try so hard to reach every one (would let some of us go, even if it means fewer in the audience) and let the others of us come to her more quietly. But “Judy” is a musical comedy built on the time-worn pattern of musical comedies and such a’ suggestion must seem, in the eyes of the producers, mere heresy. * 2 6 “The Spider,” as far as the story is concerned, is usual enough melodrama, shooting, murder, suspicion, curiosity as to motives and to guilt; but as an opus of the theater it is epic making. Rhinehart and Craig and the othér great ones of the theater world have for long been advocating the desire that the audience should be made apart of the play, that the proscenium arch that separates audience from players should be taken down. But hardly ever with all their talk and ideas have these great ones ever quite succeeded as Satisfactorily as have the two young men, Fulton Ours- ler and Lowell Brentano, in their melo- drama, “The Spider.” To be sure the proscenium arch is still there, but it and the curtain have been made essen- tial parts of the play. For on entering the theater we are handed programs which inform us that we are not at Channin’s Forty-sixth street theater, but are at the Tivoli vaudeville house. Indeed, the Tivoli orchestra is already lustily playing the overture; then comes: (b) The news reel depicting the events (more or less) of the week; (c) ‘two skating marvels of the century— — ones at that; (d) Lytell and ant, “The Chocolate Cake Eaters,” and then, the featured number on the pro- Seger (e) Chatrand the Great, assisted y Alexander, the boy with the radio eyes, presenting the greatest perform- ance of illusions and mind reading in the history of the theater. Chatrand appears elegantly dressed in a tailored dress sult and long black cape. He performs the usual tricks dexterously-+protracting from the thin air flowerpots, handkerchiefs and a bowl of living gold fish. Then he in- troduces Alexander, a shrinking pale- faced boy in a semihypnotic condition. Alexander wears a mask. Chatrand ex- plains that the mask is for the purpose | of hiding the face of the boy until the end of the performance, as the boy, a marvelous subject, has lost his identity and Chatrand is afraid that some mem- ber In the audience may recognize him before the act is over and thus spoil the performance. Chatrand moves about the audience taking from us various objects which the boy easily identifies. A girl in about the fourth row produces a locket—a spider locket—and hands it to Chatrand. But her escort, a digni- fied-looking man of middle age, objects to her giving the locket for identifica- tion, The girl insists; the man objects more strenuously. Chatrand takes the locket; the man gets angry. There is @ Verbal fight between the two. Then suddenly every light in the house is turned out and in the blackness a pis- is fired.

The chief acting laurels go to John Holliday, who plays Chatrand with the requisite grace, dignity and excitement, and to a young’ newcomer, Roy Har- grave, who brought to Alexander, Chatrand’s assistant, real sensitiveness, a keen sense of the theater and an emotional force that is unusual in one of his years.

Mrs. Locher is looked upon nation- ally as an authority upon the selection and presentation of specially assembled programs for juvenile gudiences, i a Season KHxtended. General Manager Ira J. La Motte, of the Gayety theater, takes pleasure in announcing to Gayety patrons and the general public that the Gayety theater season will be extended, due to the unusually successful year. The season usually ends April 9, but this year. the Gayety theater will remain open until May 7. A number of the most popular Columbia burlesque successes, which have played at the Gayety theater this season, will return for a second en- gagement. Manager La Motte also wishes to express his appreciation of the kind patronage accorded the Gayety this season, and especially the ladies who have been so generous in their patronage of the daily matinees and the evening performances. Preparing Play. “Green Stockings,” a comedy, by A. E. W. Mason, will be produced in the near future by the Masks, a dramatic club, whose’ membership includes stu- dents and alumni of Central High school. The cast includes Robert Miller, Miriam McDanell, Nell Childs, Irma Steiger, Barbara Stratton, Benjamin Doehrer, Ivy Stevens, Russell Graham, William Bradley, Leland Cole and An- drew Allison, all familiar names to those who follow amateur dramatic productions in Washington. The date of the performance of “Green, Stockings” by the .Masks will be announced later. . ag Began as Writer. J. M.

Ernest Lawford is an English actor. long prominently identified with the dramatic stage in London and this country, who suddenly surprised critics and public alike last spring by appear- ing .as the Lord Chancellor in Win- throp Ames’ production of “Iolanthe.” Not only that, but he scored distinct personal success with his first appear- ance in operetta and followed with an- other success last fall as Maj. Gen. Stanley in “The Pirates of Penzance.” Both parts he .will, of course, enact during the engagement of Mr. Ames’ Gilbert and Sullivan Opera company at Poli's.this week. Two-Gun Bill Missing. When “Trelawny of the Wells” was first announced for presentation, a New York paper billed the engagement as “the greatest ever assembled in Trelawny of the West.” Which prompt- ed one witty wag to politely inquire as to why, in the imposing assemblage of players, Wild Bill Hart and his six- shooters were missing from the cast. Another Orchestra. No program at Loew’s Palace is ever complete without a syncopated orches- tra and Charles Dornberger’s music- makers, one of the features of ‘“‘Hap- piness week” at the Palace last week, will be succeeded for the week starting today by Tommy Christ’ian’s “Melody- phiends,” one of the orchestral hits of the entire Loew circuit.

Lionel) is prominently billed with John Gilbert in “The Show” at Loew’s Palace this afternoon, and next week John Barrymore’s first independ- ent production, “The Beloved Rogue,” is announced for presentation at Loew's Columbia. ONCE A TROUPER, ALWAYS A TROUPER, ACTRESS SAYS| Tradition has it that when Mrs. Thomas Whiffen, that grand old lady of the stage, made her fitst appearance in the newest revival of “Trelawny of the Wells” at the New Amsterdam theater; New York, the famous Texas Guinan arose from her seat in the raid chestra and cried, “Come and let's this little girl a good big hand.” d the audience did, adding a volcano of applause to the eighty years of vocifer- ous handclapping that have followed — Whiffen’s appearance in the thea- wie: Her eighty-second birthday was cele- brated last week during her éengage- ment in Boston in company with John Drew and the all-star cast of ‘“Tre- |, lawny,” which comes to the National theater tomorrow. “I'll probably die in my make-up,” ave Mrs, Whiffen, “but don’t get the st gee: that I'm just a fighty stage a You know I have a farm in Roa- noke, Va., where I raise cows and chick- ens, get up with the sun and really work for a living. But once a trouper, always a trouper. It gets into your blood so that even in the midst of spring planting, if I get a wire on Saturday to be at the theater to start rehearsing on Monday—on Monday I'll be at the theater. “As a matter of fact, I had just. set- tled myself down to a-nice cozy winter in Roanoke when Mr. Tylér’s wire came asking me to appear in his revival of ‘Trelawny.” I couldn’t resist that, you know, because just 26 years ago Daniel Frohman presented this play of Pinero’s and I was Mrs. Mogsop in that, as I am in this performance. “Edward Morgan was in that cast, too#’ she continues, “playing Vice Chancellor Sir William Gower—the part played by John Drew now. What a fine company that was—but not a bit finer than this. Did you ever sec @ more impressive dozen of-perform- ers?” and she indicated various. mém- bers of the cast, Estelle Winwood, sit- ting cross+legged on a bench, chatting with Henrietta Crossman; John Drew, strutting majestically about, peeping at the bits of stage property, Helen Gahagan pirouetting about in the hoop skirt of Rose Trelawny, getting used to the feel of it. “You know, as Mrs. Mossop, I should be a plump old lady, and I’m not ex- actly,” she said, surveying herself rue- fully, “Of course, I'll be made up to look fat, but my hands always give me away, You can pad as much and wherevver you like, but you can’t dis- guise a thin person’s hands. “My hands give me away otherwise, too. I have dreadful iy fright every first night. I’ve been on the stage alnce I was 2 years old, in baby parts, and that totals about 80 years now, and never once have I gone on during a first night without a trembling of the hands. In the first act of ‘Nerves,’ in which I played in 1889, I had to drink a glass of sherry. in the first act. Ihe first night I wore a beautiful green dress, and you know I spilt that sherry all over me, my hands were so nervous. “Doing ‘Trelawny’ again is pleasant and easy, because the lines came back to me after a reading of my part. But as a matter of fact, I’d love to play in some modern drama. But who is going to write a play with the love interest een rer about an old woman like my- self? “I suppose you want to know what changes there have been on the stage since I started—-they all want to know that. Well, changes in the lighting of the stage are the most striking, it seems to me, and I think we did better at it 50 years ago than now. Then we had soft candlelight or the kindly flicker of a kerosene lamp. They were flatter- ing to one’s face and much less exact- ing as to make-up. Now the footlights cast shadows and the overlights cast other shadows, and as a result actresses get that hard look, . “Ah, the warm glow of those soft lights—how they beautified!’’ There was a wistful pause. “Dangerous, though, because of fire. Best to have the shadows, “The size of an actress’s wardrobe is the other striking difference. It is often said that theatrical folk are ex- travagant, but how can they be thrifty hea so much is required of them to at up stage appearances? “In my ingenue days, an actress's wardrobe consisted of a white dress, a black dress and a colored dress. Changes were made by wearing a plush sash on the white dress one evening and a pink sash the next. The actress of to- day must spend her earnings and more to uphold her end of what the public thinks an actress should wear. “Retire? Not a bit of it! I was quite annoyed with Mr. Frohman when he billed my 1914 season with him as my farewell to the stage. I'll stay with ‘Trelawny’ for its entire tour—no mat- ter how long it lasts. -I don’t mind travel. Then I’ll go back to my farm in Roanoke and wait till the next wire comes ordering me back to the foot- lights.” Plays Music By Local Author Many inquiries were made last week of Daniel Breeskin, conductor of the Symphony orchestra, and the house staff at Crandall’s Metropolitan theater as to the identity of the exit march played by the symphony throughout the week. The tuneful composition in question was “Honeymoon Place,” by Edwin A. Sherwood, manager of Cran- dall’s Exhibitor’s Film exchange. It will be recalled that another of Mr. Sherwood’s songs, “If You’re Missing Me Like I Am Missing You,” was played by the Metropolitan symphony a few weeks ago as one of the theme num- bers of the interpretative score for the accompaniment of the feature picture. , A General Review. Miss Janet Richards at her weekly talk on “Affairs Home and Foreign”’ to- morrow morning will begin with a geri- eral review touching upon the critical turn of affairs in Europe following the war scare in the Balkans and the rapid movement of events leading to the tak- ing of Shanghai by the nationalists and of the work of our marines in pro-~ tecting the foreign settlements in thé chaos that exists. Other outstanding questions will be reviewed, including Secretary Mellon’s statement concern- ing the foreign debts and the reactions both at home and abroad, the Mexican situation and the week in politics. The talk will begin at 10:50 o’clock in the Masonic temple, Thirteenth street and New York avenue. Mingled With Yankees. William Haines, star of “Slide, Kelly, Slide,” actually donned the uniform of the New York Yankees and mingled with the Yankees during the world se- ries of 1926 in order to get realistic baseball atmosphere into this new classic of the national game, which comes to Loew’s Columbia theater to- day. JACK SIDNEY, phonograph record star, who is featured at Loew’s Palace this week. A Floridian. Inez Marvin, billed as “the Florida Peach,” with “Broadway Brevyities,” com- ing to the Gayety theater this week, is by birth and rearing a native Floridian. She is sponsor for the thought that the number of native Floridians on the stage at the present time are relatively small in ratio to the population. “But,” said she, “you must remember that Plorida of today is not Florida of a few Years ago when our entertainment was mostly through circuses and medicine shows, Now we have fine theaters scat- tered down both the east and west coast and those ‘back home are just beginning to learn what real shows are. Watch Florida,.for the next few years. It may be afl real estate now, but there is a wealth of talent hidden down there which will surprise the other States when it emerges.” 9°? ° , “Ei” as in Trelawny. As if life were not difficult enough, typographically speaking, confusion now deévelops over the spelling of Pinero’s “Trelawny of the ‘Wells’.” There is a firm conviction in certain crotchety. quarters that “Trelawny” needs an “e” in its last syllable—an idea shared by the chroniclers of the first performance and utterly unathor- ized by Mr. Pinero himself. In fact the insurgent spelling so irritated the author that when the Players’ club gave their performance of the piece in New York in 1925, he issued an official bulletin, establishing Trelawny with one “e.” The old spelling, however, still obtains as a persistent tradition in the play’s records, which is one more way of accounting for that hunted look on the face of the harassed caption writer. True to Life. To assure authenticity, atmosphere and everything else that goes with them, Frank Ll. Teller has engaged the Baroness de Hollub (Harriett Lorraine) to play the part of a member of royalty in the new musical comedy, “Lady Do.” at its premiere in the National theater, week of April 3. | Coming Theater Attractions Next Sunday night, April 3, the Na- tional theater will be the scene of an- other + Washington - before - Broadway opening when “Lady Do,” a new musi- cal comedy, makes its bow, featuring Karyl Norman, the “Creole Fashion Plate,” acknowledged as one of the world’s foremost female impersonators: Nancy Welford, ingenue, last seen here in Edward Royce’s production of “Cin- ders,” and the well-known comedian, Lew Hern, who recently returned from London, after playing two years in “Mercenary Mary.” Sylvan Lee ancl Jane Moore, the dancers seen in “Naughty Riquette” earlier in the sea- son, will strive for new honors in this production. Maude Odell, a well-known comedienne, will contribute much to the laughing element in “Lady Do,” while some splendid si ing may be ex- cted from Joseph Le , whose ef- orts in “Princess Pat” are unforget- table. “Lady Do” goes direct from the Na- tional to the Liberty theater, New York, ane birthplace of “George White's Scan- als.” “Loose Ankles” will be seen at the Belasco theater for one week, beginning Sunday night, April 3, with the usual matineés Wednesday and Saturday. Sam Janney is the author. The play concerns a pretty society girl who is left money by a relative with thé provision that she.marry be- fore she is 20, also that other relatives who likewise inherit can not get their inheritance until the girl is married. As the inhéritance, besides money, con- sists of a cellar of choice Scotch, Bur- gundy and champagne as well as motor cars and country homes, it is easy to s¢e why each member of the family ex- cept the girl herself, desires her to wed. In order to spite her relatives the girl puts an ad in a New York dally paper for a man to “compromise” her and whom she can marry. THe paper falls into the hands of three gigolos—pro- fessional “hoofers” who amuse women over “40” and “overweight” for a fee— only one of which is a decent college lad from the country. From the mo- ‘ment the girl and “compromiser” meet the action of the play becomes fast and ‘furious. In the original cast to appear here will be Ellen Dorr, Reed Brown, : jr., Charles D. Brown, Frank Lyon, Joseph Bell, Carlotta Irwin, Clifford Dempsey, Ethel Mattin, Lavinia Shannon, Julia Cobb and Maxwell Sholes. The musical program for “Loose Ankles” will be interpreted by the J. Eddie Wise Syncopated band. For the week of April 3 Manager Rob- bins brings to B. F. Keith’s theater the big “Keith-Albee Combination Show No. 6.” This big road show is topped with “Jerry and Her Baby Grands” dressed in new surroundings; the “Ki- tro Japs,” and the “Hamilton Sisters and Fordyce.” Other acts will be booked later. Next week Irvin B., Hamp will again head the cast of the Strand Players, which includes Earl Root, Bille Le Monte, Rene Vincent, Ruth Adair, Ivy Stevens, Bud Brewer, William Grant and Miss Teresa Shaeffer, in an eleven- scene revue entitled “Broadway Flashes.” The outstanding feature will be a cabaret finale. “Wine, Woman and Song” is next week's attraction at the Gayety theater, opening Sunday matinee. Vic Plant, Jimmie Gallivan and Jack Reddy are the three players who carry the bulk of the fun. Plant and Gallivan are MUSIC AND MUSICIANS By ELISABETH E. POE. eb SEE America go singing on its 'way,” wrote Walt Whitman, the good gray poet of the civil war, and the National Federation of Music Clubs, which will hold its fifteenth biennial convention in Chicago April 18-25, is doing its utmost to make his poetic prophecy come true. The biennial will be a “singing con- vention” and vocal melody will enliven its every session. It is hoped that Washington will send a large delega- tion to the convention. ' There is a flourishing music federation here with high ideals and every club in the fed- eration should take advantage of the Opportunity to send at least one dele- gate to the Chicago event. “Falstaff” will, be the opera of the biennial and the delegates are looking forward to its production very much. A novel musical récital held in Wash- ington recently was that of the evening with lyrics of Shakespeare given at the National Cathedral School for Girls, under the direction of J. Willis Co- nant, director of music of the National Cathedral school. The singing of the songs by the students of the school was well done and nine of the settings of ‘the lyrics were composed by Mr. Conant. Despite the fact that the St. Louis Symphony orchestra has come upan hard financial times there is promise in the fact that the people of St. Louis have rallied behind this musical or- ganization and various groups have orr ganized to assist it. A symphony or- chestra should be,a matter of civic pride for any community and it is a matter of deep regret that Washington does not adequately support its own or- makes for succéss in such a venture and it should be the recognized duty of that support is given to local musical organizations.

The exhibition was or- ganized by the Italian department of fine arts under auspices of the Italy- America Society of New York,and was exhibited with marked success there. It was opened at the Arts club last Sunday afternoon by the Italian Am- bassador, who made a short address of recognition on the importance of art in the understanding between nations. The works shown are representative of the best of the living Italian artists who are using black and white. There are more than 300 prints which range from delightfully spontaneous expres- sion of the life on the stretches of hills near Perugia to the grandiose architec- tural buildings that stand for the for- mal life in Rome and Venice. The exhibition is thoroughly worth- while and most stimulating. It brings before our attention the names of some of the artists who were represented last year in the Italian exhibition of con- temporary art at the National Gallery of Art. The artists are from Rome, Venice, Florence, Milan, Ravénna, Mod- ena, Perugia and New York and evl- dently are doing some of the best work that is at present being done in Italy. Work Is Apprectated. There wes an appreciative response on thé part of many at the Arts club for these works and a large number have been sold, more than $400 worth. This is really an appreciable number +S when many of the etchings and en- gravings are priced as low as $10 each. Tt ig more and more borne fn upon our minds that. the imaginative appeal ex- pressed with capable technique is what appeals most frequently and widely. ‘The prints give a comprehensive survey of what is being produced in this line of work in Italy at present. How differ- ent would be the prints of 35 of our leading etchers! It is in this friendly exchange of na- tional art that we can keep in sympa- thetic touch with the artists and the thoughts of other nations. It is becom- ing recognized more and more that art is a medium of understanding be- tween people who otherwise would not come into such close sympathy. The . sending of the works of representative } American painters to the international exhibition held every two years has also tended to increase the mutual under- standing of the two nations It is due to the enthusiasm and efforts of Mrs. William Fitch Kelley, who is herself a sculptor of ability, that this collection ia now on exhibition at the Arts club. Mrs. Kelley has interested a large num- ber in the present exhibition and the interest is growing and is becoming stronger. The name of Adolfo Wildt, of Milan, will be recalled as a sculptor who showed some of the most interesting pleces at the National gallery last year. It is a surprise therefore to see some of the etchings which are quite as original and effective as his sculpture, “The Idol,” “Mortal Sin” and “™he Shade” are some of the most pleasing. “Victory in Danger,” by Enrico Arciont, of Rome, is a dramatic presentation of a chariot “The Colosseum,” by Celestino Celestini, and “Ancient Houscs in Vi- terbo” are ir. the Italian tradition, while “Oxen” and “Under the Olive Trees,” by Checchi, are spontaneous and modern. “The Great Cathedral,” “The Burnt Castle” and “The Ancient Mariner,” by Chiapelli, are filled with romance and poetry. “The Boar,” by Dazzi, is wonderfully well drawn, as are the “Titin” and “Hylas,” by De Carolis. Among some of the other of the most interesting are “The Church of St. Michaele,” by Favi, and “Piazzi Navona” and the “Angel and the Cupola” by the same artist. Guerrini’s “The Song of the Nightingale;” “New York,” by Lentelll; “The Arrest of Jesus,” .y Parmeggiant!; “The Castle,” by Prencipe; ‘The Monti- ino Stairway, by Ugonia, and “Vene- tian Splendors,” by Vallani-Marchi. The exhibition will be on view until April 2. . . Parsons’ Paintings. The paintings by Theophilus Par- sons are in the upper rooms at the Arts club. Mr. Parsons, who as it is anounced, “has painted all his life, recently has been able to devote his entire time to painting and has de- veloped new methods of t creation and control of color which appear in the series of pictures on exhibition,” naturally challengés our attention with his color. It is difficult to see how. his new method has greatly im- proved that in use by other well- known artists, for in many of his paintings his color appears forced, es- ppecially his use of blue which seems rather overdone in many of his can- vases. His paintings, seen together, seem to be suffering from too much of this same tone of blue which is not espe- cially happy. However, the color in “A Dry Noftheaster” is quite delightful. “A Foggy Day” is a delicate and charm- ing impression. The water in the other marines has not the quality of water but of paint. The portraits by Mr. irsons are hard and not true in dtawing. Doubtless when he has painted longer some of these faults will be overcome, as @ steady advance in his work can be seen since he first exhibited two years ago. e¢.6hCs . . Exhibit Tomorrow. At the Smithsonian building there will be placed on exhibition tomor- row etchings by Lee Sturges, president of the Chicago Society of Etchers. Fifty-three prints will be on exhibi- tion in the second room on the main floor and not where these exhibitions of hic are usually held. They p arts will be shown until April 23. Etchings of Birds. At the Veerhoff galleries,'1512 Con- “necticut avenue, there is an exhibition of _ by Charles E. Hell, of New York, which | will be on view until A 16, ‘Heil was born in Boston, in and water colors of birds n under tn Perle at nals, and one ae = ain 7- “Farmyard in Winter,” a dry point by Chauncey F. Ryder, on Chicago, in Cleveland and in the Cor- | coran gallery here. So much for his official record. For the artistic side there might a great deal more be said, but it is not always so easy to get in words the charm and beauty ef the world of birds. The artist has captured, in a wonder- ful way, the appeal of the song birds, their various moods, their piquant charm and made of them individuals instead of creatures without any per- sonality, if one can use that term about them. And who can gainsay the fact that they have not personality in a pécularily delightful manner? The artist has painted them in gay and somber mood, in all the brilliancy of their feathered glory and the rawness of the young blue jays before they have come into their blue beauty. Scientific in Care. However, Heil has not imposed his ideas about birds; he has drawn them with scientific care and exactness, They are even more perfect than the Audu- bon prints which now sell for $2,000 for a book of a dozen or more prints. It is the innate beauty of the drawing in the water colors and the etchings that is so remarkable. He has in some instances given us the bit of tree or shrub that the bird is seen alighting on, and now a touch of background which makes us see the bird in his habitat. The painting c the birds is exquisitely done with feeling and sym- pathy. These drawings are valuable as works of art and scientific records, All bird lovers will want to see this ex- hibition. “The Black-Cap Chickadee,” “The Song Sparrow,” “Ruby-Throated Hum- mingbird”’ and “Belted Kingfisher” and “The Black-Throated Warbler” are some of the most engaging of the water-color drawings. “The Young Blue Jays” are especially ng eee young things that‘are not yet familiar with this strange world. There is an oil painting on view, in the window of the Veerhof gallery, of the old Vermont home of the President painted by Gustave Wiegand which is very attractive. The New England elms are well rendered, and the pale sun- light that shines in the north suf- fuses the painting. The preliminary sketch made for the picture was pre- sented to President Coolidge by the artist. o * 7 Pennell Has Display. One of the most notable exhibitions of the week is that of the etchings, lithographs and drawings of Joseph Pennell at the Dunthorne gallery. This is a most representative collection of the works of this foremost American lithographer. Pennell made an en- viable reputation by his lithographs of the Panama canal and the huge ma- chines used in the construction which has. been in the nature of an Ameri- can epic and so seen by this man of imagination. He seized the dramatic element in the gates of Gatun lock, for instance, and has been able to convey this ta the public, which is his contribution to the history of graphic arts, even if he did nothing else. There are some of these rare litho- graphs in the present collection and others as choice and imaginative, as for instance, “Peace and War,” “Mak- ing Pig Iron,” “From the Tops of, the Furnaces.” Then the lithographs of lower New York, “Trinity Church from the River,” “Across Union. uare,” “The Sky Line,” all have this tre- mendous appeal to the imagination. It is only the poet and the artist who have the vision to see beauty in the great works of industry and the lines of the great sky scrapers which are/ more typically American than any other form of art. For this reason Pen- nell is so representatively American al- though he jis beauty of London as to New York. In the etchings of Washington, “Flags Fl , Union Station” and the “Cathedral the Park” he has caught the element of picturesque- ness most effectively. “St. Matin’'s ust as sensitive to the | fn builling.

Most of them are of Ireland, and vividly fresh, sponta- neous and’ effective are these impres- sions in water color. They are in pure, limpid, transparent water color. They are full of color, quite simply done and with much strength and virility. Mrs Brannigan, is much more successful with water color than she is in oil, al- though there is a certain dash and _ vi- tality in the latter medium. She was a student of the Corcoran School of Art and exhibits frequently with the Socie- ty of Washington Artists, and always shows interesting canvases. She also exhibits at the Arts club. “Dungora,” “Old House by the 6ea,” “An Irish Doorway,” and “Belvally Cas- tle, County Cork,” are some of the in- teresting views of quaint houses. ‘‘Wild Achill” is an impression of a mountain of vivid blue seen through light clouds which makes a striking effect, while “Monkey Puzzle Tree, Lynton,” is a view of the Devonshire coast which is also a delight in color. Mrs. Brannigan has given us a country which is not often touched by artists and transcribed it with an unspoiled point of view for which we are grateful. The exhibition will be on view two weeks. ¥ - * 7. Costume Collection. A collection of rare costumes, vest- ments belonging to the high priests and other garments both of men and women, is on exhibition at 1326 Con- necticut avenue. These costtimes are of the peoples of the Holy Land and Syria and were collected a generation ago by Mme. Mountford, who was an unusual woman, a trained linguist and a gifted speaker. Her idea was to make the people and the costumes of Pales- tine familar to every one. To this end she gathered at great expense, and with netaking care, garments that have h worn by the dwellets in the Bib- lical lands since ancient time. These nts are woven by hand in wool, inen afd silk, and most of them ex- quisitely embroidered with the tradi- tional designs. It is the beauty of these textile designs that isso rare and There is a priest’s vestment from the Bridge, Toledo,” “Alcantara Bridge” and | Pal “Mond Gas” are equally effective. Per- haps the most delightful of all are the water colors whi Pennell painted from his studio, which commanded a wonderful view of the river and sky liae of New York. “New re Star” “The Bay,” “Governor’s Is- l and the exquisite “Fete % the Riva, Venice,” are some of the loveli- est.

Among the rare aquatints is one of the famous painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds, “The Three Graces Decorat- ing the Shrine of Hymen.” The women in the painting are all of the Mont- gomery family. Barbara, one of the three graces, became the second wife of John Beresford of Ireland, who was the ancestor of the present George Beresford, in whose house the lecture was given. The aquatint has recently come into the possession of the family from Ireland. The next lecture in the series will be given tomorrow at 3 p. m. in the home of George Hewett Myers, 2310 & street. Mr. Myers will give a lecture on “Eastern Textiles,” which will be illustrated by the textiles, rugs and hangings in his owh house. It is said by experts that the collection of Mr, Myers is one of the finest textile col- lections in the country and it is almost unknown to Washingtonians. 2 s * BS» Sign Causes Sttr. The “For Sale” sign in front of the famous “Studio House,’ 2306 Massa- chusetts avenue, has caused a_ stir among the socially prominent and in the art circles in Washington. This well-known house was the creation of the owner, Mrs. Alice Barney, and is rumored to tontain one of the rarest and finest colléctions in the city. Mrs. Barney is an artist of much ability. She is out of town, but it was pos- sible to see the house, a page from a wonder book, at the invitation of her secretary, Mr. Huntington. . + * . Purchases Paintings. Duncan Phillips has bought a num- ber of the paintings on exhibit in the independent artists’ and sculptors’ show at the Carlton hotel Among them are the “Adirondacks” landscape, by Peppino Magravite, “Still Life,” by M.

At the National museum, the in- dustrial building, is an exhibition of photographs by Marcus Adams, of London, who has come to America for the Photographers Association of America. He is a well-known photog- rapher of children in England and is very successful in this line of work. His photographs of children are refined, beautifully rendered and most inter- esting. The exhibition will be on view but a few days or until the first of April when it must make way for an- The American Art Annual, volume XXIII, for 1926, recently was issued by the American Federation of Arts. In this most complete book of reference, published on cgntemporary American art, the regular features, brodught up to date, are supplemented by new Sains tures, Directories of art museum workers and craftsmen are the speical features of this volume; short biographical sketches are given of approximately 600 museum workers and 1,750 craftsmen in 25 branches of the crafts. Significant events in the world of art, which occurred during 1926, con- stitute a review of over fourteen pages. The Sesquicentennial exposition in Philadelphia was the outstanding event of the year, and Frank A. Munsey’s be- quest Of approximately $40,000,000 to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, was one of the most colossal gifts ever made by a single individual, to an art insti- tion. Gifts of cash, buildings, works of art and other property, to the cause of art, probably established a record dur- ing 1926. In addition to Mr. Munsey’s gift, the estate of Col. W. R. Nelson, estimated at from $10,000,000 td $20,- 000,000, has become available for the Nélson collection of Kansas City. Yale university received $1,000,000 for the erection of an art museum. Many fine buildings for various public purposes were erected during the year; more than 30 important memorials and other works in sculpture were dedicated. Nearly 100 eminent artists and pa-, trons of art passed away dur Among them were Joseph P , the United States’ greatest etcher; Mary Fos- » archi- , J. M.

P. Putnam's Sons, New York, N. Y.). Side by side with his thrilling story | of exploration, Mr. Rasmussen . painted a graphf picture of th fe of these people from the frozen north in all their simplicity of nature, their primitive habits, fighting for bare ex- snow. Of all the human beings on earth, these peoples of the aretic region have the most tragic fate of all, the daily, the hourly, aye, the momentary struggle for life itself. That is the main business of thtir existence, to keep life in their bodies against ter- rific odds, The struggle is with Mother Nature herself, who, in other regions, is more kindly disposed to her children. It is one of the great stories of the hu- man race and after reading Mr. Ras- mussen’s book we find ourselves e¢n- dowed thereby with abiding respect for the heroic element in these people, the admiration one feels for game souls no matter under what racial form they may exist. “Although Mr. Rasmussen may be modestly unaware of it, he has real literary gifts and tells his story vividly and with all the force that comes from the usé of simple phrases and words—provided there is a story to tell. And there is a story for Mr. Ras- mussen to tell and he has told it. That, after all, is the primary achieve- ment of an author, to have something to say and to say it. There is every reason to believe that the author spoke tfuly when he ex- claimed: “I bless the fate which allowed me to be born in an age when the arctic dog sledge was not yet out of date.” This was the answer which he made when he was asked if he planned to fly north. For the man who files over the arctic regions will never get so close to the hearts of the Eskimos as he who shares with them their dangers, privations and daily life, In his new book. Rasmussen describes his fifth Thule expedition in 1921-1924. This journey across the top of the world began from Danish Greenland and ended in our own Alaska. He brings out the very real value of the Eskimo to arctic exploration in his story: How dramatic it is to learn that he found among the northern Eskimos a people as primitive as the prehistoric man in Europe 25,000 years ago, Just by reading of these unique creatures of today we are able to turn the pages of history back century after century until the dawn of humanity—or at least the dawn of humanity as far as unwritten and written record now des- ignates it—we see standing before us the Cro-Magnon man of the glacial age. There was a distinct ethnological purpose behind the Rasmussen expedi- tion and in his theory of the common Asiatic origin of both the Eskimo and North American Indian is trustworthy confirmation of an often conjectured solution to this ethnological riddle. In speaking of this purported origin Ras- priest found a new variety of religion 1926. |, TRUE KEABLE CHARACTERS IN NEW BOOK Since the days when Robert Keable first gave the character of “Simon Called Peter” in the book by that name, the churchman lured from the church by love and the conflict in his own conviction, many writers have rung the various changes possible in such a theme in developing the socalled mod- ern English novel. In his latest work, “Ann Decides,” Mr. Keeble lives up to his past work and gives us two really remarkable characters in Lady Ann and Dick Thurston, who tur first from the Holy Roman Church’ and then from the orthodox God of Christianity seek- ing with emotion and restlessness a god in whom he can place his faith. The first portions of the book drag greatly, even to the admirers of Mr. Keable they are quite a strain. Per- haps they might stop the further read- ing of those not familiar with the strength and humanness oft his au- thor’s work. The book which even the blindest might say starts out to be very dull springs into life and vitality with the injection of Lady Ann into the picture. Those who feel that the tenets of religion and the church are being placed in jeopardy by the modern drift toward skepticism probably will come forth with denunciations of this book. Those who feel that Christianity and the church can bear the strong search light of analysis perhaps will indulge in a litle introspection themselves. The book might have been designed more as an appeal to the ordinary ‘members of the reading public if it had not been so patiently suggested that in the rejection of the formal be- lief in God and Church the former in the love of a woman, The love story which runs through the book is beautiful with bravery and sgelf- sacrifice but is fraught nevertheless with the right of each individual to lead his own life regardless. From a religious and brotherhood of man view- int, this leaves much to be desired man’s duty to his fellow man. One of the outstanding features of the character of the former priest: is his innate FOR TRAVELING IN ARCTIC mussen. says, “The Eskimos and the North American Indians once were the same people. It was their common for- bears that came from Asia. The Eski- mos are only a section of this stock which migrated eastward across the horthern hemisphere.” Rasmussen Drought to his task the needed equipment of a mastery of northern languages practically surpass- ing that possessed by any other ex- plorer of modern times, at least. Through all his tribulations, he only knew the joy of adventure and that never say die spirit gives a potent charm to his recital of the greart ad- venture itself. It took 314 years to ac- complish kis great purpose and he ourneyed for nearly 20,000 miles in all. nm recounting some of his special quali- a for such a venture, Rasmussen said: “My life’s course led inevitably to- ward arctic exploration, for my father, a missionary among the Eskimos, mar- ried one who was proud of some por- tion of Eskimo blood. From the very nature of things I was endowed with attributes for polar work which out- landers have to acquire through pain- ful experience. My playmates were na- tive Greenlanders; from the earliest boyhood I played and worked with the hunters, so that even the hardships of the most strenuous sledge trips became pleasant routine for me.” And he continues: “The Eskimo is the hero of this book. His history, his present culture, his daily hardships, and his spiritual life constitute the theme ahd the ner- rative.” That is what makes the vol- ume so different from others dealing with arctic exploration, and makes it an indisputable part of the literature of the North. The expedition set forth under the patronage of King Christian K of Den- mark and a number of Danish scien- tists were with Rasmussen on the ex- pedition. Women will be interested to know that an Eskimo woman, Ana- rulungua, made the entire trip, con-~- tributing more than her full share of its success through her services in keep- ing the fur clothing niended, cooking and helping to drive the dogs. Her work was recognized by the King of Denmark through the award to her of @ special medal. It is astonishing to learn that the Eskimos, widely scat- tered from Greenland to Siberia, num- ber only about 33,000 persons in all, which shows how hard existence in the frozen North is and that only the most hardy infants can survive. Rasmussen found many forerunners of modernity in the primitive religious beliefs and practices of the Eskimo, Their philosophy, he points out, includes ideas of autosuggestion, spirit seances, and catalepsy, while the _ wireless telegraphy of the ‘Frozen North has often received notice. “Their poetry,” he affirms, “has many resemblances to ours, their religion and folk lore often resemble, even in phrasirfg, as wall as in content, our earlier religious titera- ture. The author has written into. his volume a number of folk tales and short poems of the Eskimos. Some of them are well worth the quoting. Take this one of the raven and the loon, for- instance: “In the olden days, all birds were white. And then one day the raven and loon fell to drawing patterns on each other’s feathers. The raven be- gan, and when it had finished, the loon was so displeased with the pattern that it spat all over the raven and made it black all over. And since that day all ravens have been black. But the raven was so angry that it fell upon the loon and beat it so about the legs that it could hardly walk. And that is why the loon is such an awkward creature on land.” Their poetry has a crude strength. Here is one example of it known as: AVANE’S SONG. Lo, alas, I look and seek All impatient, eagerly, For the caribou in the hills; Am I old and worthless now, Since I hunt in vain? I who once could stand and shoot Swiftly without aiming Striking down with sudden arrow Bulls with spreading horn; Saw the great beast fall and lie With muzzle deep in mire.” In the closing words of the book Rasmussen has epitomized its purpose and the results of the fifth Thule expe- dition. “The éxpecition was at an end,” he writes. “The years which to us white men had been full of strange happen- ings and experiences, were just every- day life to our two Greenlanders. It was their turn now; their expédition was beginning. But as I showed them the marvels of this new world, my thoughts were constandtly returning to the people we had left, to the men and women who had spoken so simply and yet so powerfylly of the greatest and the smallest things. Hunger and feasting, happiness and adversity, the daily round and the great moments of life—they spoke of all with true and simple feeling. So here, face to face with a chaos and confusion of marvels, Anarulungusa found the very words for all it meant: ‘Nature is great; but man is greater still.’” VoR.

By Charles E. Chapman. (The MacMillan Co., New York.) This is not a history of Cuba but of the present Republican government on the island. The author is well quali- fied to write on such a subject, having made for some years a special study of the Spanish possessions in the new world. He is not an enthusiast over the ‘conditions as they now are in Cuba, In fact, he is a nonbeliever in the stability of the present system. He gives the reader a clear insight into the peculiar characteristics of the Cu- ban people, pointing out the difficul- ties of establishing and maintaing there a Republican form of government. Mr, Chapman traces the rise of the feeling for independence from Spain. The book is, as said by the author, “a study in Hispano-American politics.” He deals with conditions as they are, without indulging speculatior as to what they ought to be. He points out the past and present political relations between Cuba and the United States. From the very foundation of our gov- ernment it has been the dream of some American statesmen that some time Cuba is to belong to us. At times an- nexation has been seriously discussed in this country and in Cuba. Mr. Chapman points out that the two countries can never be united ex- cept upon the admission of Cuba as a State in the Union, and this he deems hardly likely to occur, at least for many years. He does not think the present quasi-protectorate system is of material benefit to either country. We have a great trade with Cuba, and that trade is capable of being increased im- mensely, Friendship between the two governments {ts therefore, vital to us. The more our statesmen study the situ- ation in all its phases, the more compe- tent they will be to handle the future questions which are sure to arise. The twc countries may never be united politically, but the closest amity ought to be maintained for prudential rea- sons. Cuba, as our friend and ally, is an arsenal protecting American rights in Panama. Mr, Chapman has given the American public a book of very great and immediate value. Se BILL MYRON. By Dean Fales (E. P. Dutton Co,, New York). When two-fisted Bill Myron led the gang of neighborhaod boys and his motte was “word of honor.” In strange ways this code followed him through his after life, often making him do the very things which were not to his ad- vantage in his conflict with the sham or hypocritical respectability. The two-fistedness of Bill Myron 1s the real kine as opposed to the imita- tion article which he knocked up against in his fighting, blundering and nonpretentious life. There is humar nature in this story of big Bill Myron, his rise and great- hess and his fall. THE ANATOMY OF AFRICAN MIS- ERY—By Lord Olivier. (The Hogarth Press, London.) Among the difficult problems now confronting the civilized. world, and one that awaits solution is South and East Africa. There is nothing in the conditions existing there taday that would justify a prediction that the next general war will have its incep- tion in that section of the world, but that may come to be true. Lord Olivier has had a wide experience in the economic problems of South and East Africa, having been secretary of state for India. He has given careful study of the situation, viewing conditions as they exist through the rule of Euro- peans over non-European races. He has studied the causes producing present conditions and the various attempts. to remedy them. As the surgeon dissects the human body to study its anatomy, Lord Olivier has dissected the political, social, and economic conditions in Africa, and gives to the reader a faith- gt a intelligent summary of the re- sults. LIFE CHANGERS, by Harold Begbie (G. P. Putnam’s Sons, New York). A few yeafs ago Mr. Begbie gave to the reading public a book, “Twice Born Men.” It had a wonderful sale at the time, and still is in demand. “Life Changers” is in part a sequel to his first book. It is a series of sketchés telling how one man leading «a God- like life may and does influence others to follow in the footsteps of Christ. Pulpit aching, powerful factor as it is, would a in converting the world, It is the life His followers live which bring others into the fold of Christ. Real “Life Changers” are living men and women. The story of one, as told by Mr, Begbie, is full of admonition and encouragement to others. MARY WAS LOVE, by Guy Fletcher (George H. Doran Co., New York). A woman’s love so true and strong coming through the crucible of life is portrayed in this romance of the faith- ful shop girl. The character of Anné,. the shop- girl, is much more finely drawn than that of the hero, David Mellor, who seeks his lost love in a world of lost desirés, dramatic happénings and over- whelming misunderstandings. In the prologue the author opens with the rather trite sentence, “Only them. in this book of old-fashioned modernized TORIES OF MARY E, (Harper & Brothers. ‘ . - : 5 peg rt ie Bpbs ei, | “yO ‘ On av iia: we ivi * 7 * ie] oa ae os i es heat ‘ two in the world and all this*made for | ” ‘There is o new idea engendered | LOTUS OF THE DUSK. By Dorothy Graham (Frederick A. Stokes, New York). Even those who have not been to China will realize that the euthor of this book has written with ‘the gure hand of personal knowledge, gained from residence in a land where live the most formal people in the world, Liane, the daughter of two races, a Russian mother and a Manchu father, feels the tug of blood from her ances- tors on both sides of the house and further complicates the working ous of her life by an early and romantic maAr- rlage to a young American diplomat.- The Occidental thus takes the upper- most place in her mind and actiong and- yet it is by her knowledge of the Rabits and mind of her fathér’s people that she. guides her husband who has lost his ciplomatic post and caste by hig -thar- riage to her back to a lucrative t as special adviser to the Chinese republic. Miss Graham has taken extremé care in her description of the ancién¢ éus- - toms and rigidity of the conventions of high caste Chinese with the Wlustrious Ancestor, the grandmother, an absolute: nese life of today, with its revolt against existing order and the attitude of young students, leaders in the divérse move- portrayed in this book of fiction: THE FROZEN FRONTIER. By Walter W. Liggett. (Macaulay, New York.) This is a new variety of thé story of the frozen north with the Roya! Mounted Police in the region where 40 below zero is considered miid weather. A member of the Royal Mounted, discredited and disgraced. fights to win back honor and the girl he loves. This is a story of regenera- tion and redemption which would have been quite as powerful had the scene been laid anywhere else, but it gaing color and strength in the setting of the dazzling whiteness and vest e¢x- panse of the North. There is romance and adventure; human nature, the sway of human emotions, humer and pathos in this book, which should make it one of the best sellers of adventure books of this type. THE FREELANDS. By John Galsworthy (Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York). The popularity of this writer ee these two revised editions of worne Freelands” and “Beyond” particularly acceptable at this time. As @ novelist Mr. Galsworth has few livin peers. Mr. Galsworthy explains ‘m “Be- yond” as his longest novel has become comparatively short in revision. He as- serts it shows a pecullar blindness on ils part for he thought it was ‘well written, but states when he started, to revise it he found {t very badly written. Those of us whohave read “Beyond,” aS first written, probably ‘will not agree with him. He pleads distraction of the war, for it was begun on the eve of Christmas, 1914, and finished that game year. In passing Mr. Galsworthy men- tions that it yielded a goodly sum for the Red Cross and other war funds, Mr. Galsworthy pays tribute to three great dead writers to whom. hé says he owes much inspiration and training, Turgenev, Tolstoli and De Mau t. He made an intensive study of these masters for 20 years. After that period he has not found they have aged or lost any of their respective charm, truth and poignancy, Into “The Freelands,” Mr. Galsworthy says, he has put what he could of his affection for English land. He records a conviction in this preface, and indeed in the book itself, that England wil) never. be sound and safe until the land is again what it once. was, the back- bone and blood of the race. \ Book Notes Harper’s intercollegiate egg Poe 9 test for 1927 closed March. 5. tors have received letters from profes- sors in English from a ] number of colleges enthusiastically indoraing. the, cohtest as a means of stimulating un- dergraduate interest in creative writing.

Hebner, “Postwar Service.” ~Donellan, Miss Fannie Dial, Miss Mar- =’ Gore, ae is the way the club-women are paraphrasing Tennyson's poem in the preparation for national garden week, to be observed April 17 to April 24. This observance has the indorsement of President Coolidge and the hearty cooperation and interest of | | Mrs, Coolidge, as demonstrated in her | care of and attention to the White) House gardeng. | Few women’s club headquarters here neglected this important piece of good club housekeeping. Often the tiny patch of yard and garden is well taken care of and gives opportunity for after- noon tea gr a table of bridge amid vines and blooming flowers. Miss Vida Newsom, national chair- man, and the local chairmen are all working hard to make the slogan “the United States the Garden Nation of the world in 1930” a reality. Recently Miss Newsom stated, “The purpose of garden week is to promote the interest and arouse enthusiasm in the planting of gardens as an ennobling of the individual and the community ag an attribute of good citizenship.” Among the suggestions given to the clubwomen for the organization of garden week are: Organize a garden club or form a garden department in your club, have a speaker on some phase of gardening or flower culture, adopt a civic flower and encourage its growth in private and public grounds; enlist the interest and cooperation of churches, schools, Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, Girl Scouts and Girl Re- serves, encourage competitive activities in the raising of flower gardens, vege- table gardens, window boxes, lawns and landscaping home _ grounds, secure prizes from local dealers in seeds, gar- den tools, &c.; have a flower show, ar- range for free distribution of seeds and cuttings to school children; ask. the ask business houses to show pictures of gardens, bird baths, garden sculp- systems, seeds, &c.; establish a flower booth where flowers and vegetables may have a bird house exhibit and have a model garden planted by children; se- cure time on the radio for garden and outdoor talks and ask motion picture theaters to show films of gardens, trees, birds and flowers. Some of the local clubs are forming garden sections to work in the com- munity gardens under instructions on certain afternoons each week. This will have a twofold advantage, as it will give the women healthy outdoor exercise in pleasant company, provide their own or club tables with season- able vegetables, or give the material to ald in the charities which every club carries on. The United States government is will- ing to study and learn and to investi- gate in its efforts to further the in- terests of the youth of the land. In no way~can this be done better than along the lines of vocational and in- dustrial matters. Miss Mary Stewart, assistant director of the employment bureau: of the United States Depart- ment of Labor, whose work is prin- clpally with the youth of the country, will leave here this week for an of- ficial trip to England and other coun- tries of Europe to study the work con- tlons to carry.on our work.

Sofla, March 26.—Turkey is to take a census next fall, the only real census ever taken by a Turkish government. Writing of this undertaking and of the ill effects of the present uncertainty as to the present population of the republic, M. Verraz, La Bulgarie’s Con- stantinople correspondent said the oth- er day: “In the absence of any enumeration there are only guesses as to the size of the population. ‘Itachette’ for 1927 estimates it at 20,000,000. An Italian statistical publication puts it at 5,000,- 000. It is probably between 9,000,000 and 14,000,000. “The government attaches the great- est importance to the October census. Under the empire the central admin- istration accepted the unverified popu- lation reports of its functionaries. They were full of errors and caused much confusion. The strength of the military forces was fixed without ever knowing the number of men capable of bearing arms. The present government wishes to kgpw what the effectives are. It realizes that good administration must be based on exact information as to change in population. : Use Scientific Methods. ‘In the general. enumeration the new Turkey will employ the most mod- ern and scientific methods. The Angora government has made tests on a small scale in various vilayets. The first of these was at Sivas. Full instructions having been given to the inhabitants the trial ran off smoothly. . The inhabi- tants were told to stay at home until noon of a certain day. In the morning 150 census takers made the rounds. At 2 o’clock the next morning the result was announced—32,000 inhabitants. It was the first actual local census in Turkey. “Some days later a count was made — in Angora. It was a success. But the results were somewhat disappointing. It had been widely advertised that the city’s population would be nearly 100,- 000. But people forgot that Angora had only about 25,000 inhabitants in 1919, at the beginning of the war of independence. The recount showed 58,000, a very creditable outcome, with a gain of more than 100 per cent in seven years, If Angora develops at the same rate, it will soon be the most populous city in Turkey, Constanti- nople excepted. Families Are Separated. “Another discovery caused some as- tonishment. Of the 58,000 inhabitants, 35,000 were men and only 23,000 women. There is a reason for this. High rents and a housing shortage have obliged thousands of functionaries to live in ADEA without, bringing their families a Ong: 2 } “The new capital has, moreover, had up to now the character of a military base and a citadel. That is why there was hardly any room for women. But the situation is changing from day to day with the creation of the new city. “No preliminary. trials will be made in Constantinople. But already orders have been given to number the houses and to install better street signs. This will be a very useful reform, for nothing is harder to find than an address in Constantinople. The metropolis on the Bosphorus is, moreover, a perfect exam- ple of the ill effects of a complete ab- sence of statistical knowledge, : “With the war the city suffered vio- lent changes in all flelds of activity: But its trouble can not be diagnosed or remedied, because no one knows how much the population has increased or decreased and how muck commerce, industry and business have quickened or slackened. “Only a census can pave the way for social and economic action: to modern- ize the country. Ismet Pasha-has or- dered an exact count; ‘not one more nor one less.’ The new Turkey wants to base its policy of repopulation and rer ga development on absolute real- es,” 4 CENTRAL HIGH LATIN EXHIBIT AT SCHOOL Under the supervision of Miss Alida Smith, a Latin exhibit has been placed on the second floor of Central High school by representatives from several Latin classes. Miss Smith suggested the exhibit as a means of «proving Central students are interested in Latin. i ie : Twelve prizes are offered to French students in American high schools and colleges for’ a translation of a. master plece of contemporary French oratory into adequate English.

MAPS OF Va 2 RECEIVED BY RADIO First Set Is Installed at Lake- hurst and Another Put on Los Angeleés. TEST RESULTS SURPASS FONDEST EXPECTATIONS Weight of Equipment Was Cut to 15 Pounds During Re- cent Experiments. By ROBERT D. HEINL. The next application of weather maps by radio will be attempted when steps are taken to equip the fiying felds under government supervision with these radio map receivers. The first installation was at Lakehurst. field in New Jersey, where, it is understood, one of these machines has been put aboard the great navy dirigible Los Angeles for actual service tests. It is believed if the Shenandoah could have had the advantage of such equipment as this that it might have received warning in sufficient time to have prevented its destruction. Results surpassing the fondest ex- pectations of those experimenting with the transmission of weather maps and storm warnings to vessels at sea by radio have been accomplished within the past few weeks, Of particular grati- fication is that far and away the best results have been accomplished by short waves, which means that eventually these maps may be flashed half way around the world, if necessary. And it is hoped eventually this service may be afforded to air ships as well as ships at Bea. Weight of Map Reduced. The weight of the weather map re- ceiving set has been considerably re- duced and is now only about 15 or 20 pounds, considerably less than that of an ordinary typewriter. use practical in an airship, but inas- much as it takes about 45 minutcs un- der present conditions to transmit a map and until the weight is even fur- ther reduced, it may be a little longer before sets are installed on airplanes, where every pound of weight is ac- counted for and where, as a rule, the flights are of comparatively short dura- tion. However, such amazing progress has been made with the perfecting of these little weather map receiving ma- chines that their further adaptation to all sorts of craft seems to be only a question of time. A highly encouraging fact is that static apparently isn’t nearly such an obstacle in broadcasting weather maps to ships at sea as with audible radio. Recently when the U. S. S. Trenton, flagship of the Atlantic fleet, was pre- vented from receiving code, weather map reception went on unintc:rupted. The most. recent experiments have been carried on with the U. S. S. Kit- ‘ery, now in Caribbean waters, about 2,000 miles from Washington. Week before last maps were broadcast to the Kittery on short waves by C. Francis This makes its} York. under the auspices\of Jenkins, the Washington inventor, whose laboratory is located almost a stone’s throw from the temporary White House in Dupont circle. Last week the broadcasting was done by the Navy sta- tion NAA at Arlington and this week from the Naval Research laboratory at Bellevue, in the outskirts of the Capital. Short Wave Better. The results from NAA on a longer wave length, about 8,335 meters, were aot so good, but from the Jenkins and Naval Research Laboratories, on 50 and 74 and 24. meters, respectively, time after time radiograms have come from the Kittery that the reception: had been perfect. “We couldn’t expect to do better than that,” said Mr. Jenkins enthusiastical- ‘ty, “and thus there has been accom- lished the first application of visual radio to safeguarding and saving the ives of passengers and the saving of cargo of ships at sea. This is now no longer a theory, but a fact.” At present these maps are being sent to the U. S. 8S. Kittery, one of the few ships having such equipment. The Kit- tery receives maps on a regular sched- ule, at noon and midnight. Profiting .by previous experience in hroadcasting these storm signals, the entire map is no longer sent.. A base imap, already printed, is supplied to the vessels before they leave port, showing the coast line, the Eastern part of the United States and adjacent islands in the south Atlantic ocean. It is then necessary to broadcast only the barom- eter pressure and wind velocity, thus saving mug time. ° Map on Cylinder. This base map is placed on the cylin- der of the receiving set, which is aboard the warship, and works automatically, much the same as the automatic writ- ing device which readers are accustomed to seeing in hotels and banks, excepting that instead -of writing on a flat sur- face, the recording surface is cylin- drical. In: operation it seems almost uncanny to the lay observer and while, as has been said, the present schedule only calls for two maps a day, if there are signs of a hurricane or other ab- normal disturbance, an additional map can he broadcast at any time. Mr. Jenkins is at present at the Lakehurst flying field. where he super- intended the details of installing the first set on the LoS Angeles. Naturally the experiments are looked forward to with great interest, inasmuch as, if successful, as there is every reason to believe they will be, this will mark a decided step forward in the develop- ment of visual radio and one likely to place our navy ahead ‘of those of the rest of the world in this particular field of endeavor, Licenses to Walt. There Is every indication that no new licenses will be issued by the radio commission to program broadcasters until after the radio public hearings which begin Tuesday, and that action may not be taken in troublesome cases until the return to this.country from China of Rear Admiral Bullard. i ; ¥ ih enti Oi Mehhos 5 Tes . vil “eet a nsipenive Papeete te Mathis he ee?

Just where the money is coming from, in view of the fact that radio appropriations failed during the last Congress, is hard to say, but the civil service commission is seeking .appli- cants for assistant radio inspectors, whose duties primarily will be to as- sist the radio inspectors in the enforce- ment of the radio act. The assistant radio inspector will be required to inspect radio equipment on vessels and in land stations, which in- volves the carrying of 30 or 40 pounds of testing and measuring instruments; to assist in the examination of radio operators, and to perform such office work as is required. The salary is. $2,100 a year, and ap- plications must be on file not later than April 16. Full information and application forms may be obtained from the United States: civil service commission, Washington, D. C., or the secretary of the board of United States civil service examineys at the postof- fice or custom house in any -city. .

Already it is known tnat from ten to .fifteen stations will cauiry the addresses and there very like- ly will be more. As the ease at the Cornell dinner a year or s0 ago, speak- ers at one Binner, by means of radio and land wires, will be able to hear speakers at other dinners and vice versa, Washington will have one of the key dinners. The gathering, which is to be held at the Carlton hotel, will be ad- | dressed by Chief Justice Taft, Yale, "78, where he was graduated with sec- ond honors in a class of 121, and where ‘finally became a faculty member. The Yale alumni in Washington number more than 350, and Henry 8. Graves, provost of the university, will attend the dinner here as the faculty member. While it may not be possible to hear from the dinners in Europe, Hawail.and the orient.entirely by radio, word is expected to be received by cable. It is planned to have the principal banquet halls, those in New York, Washington, Chicage and other larger cities, interconnecte¢ with radio ap- paratus. Presiden: Angell will probably be heard from New York. The occasion for ‘these world-wide dinners will be the opening of the campaign for a $20,000,000 endowment to increase salaries of professors and instructors at Yale and to provide ad- ditional instructors. ° Walter Bruce Howe, ’01, is chairman of the commit- \*\\ UX yy .

You hear much about “electrified” ra- dio sets. This finest modern radio is something more. It does not merely do away with batteries. It is built to use power that batteries could not supply.. RCA Loudspeaker 104, was so revolu- tionary in performance that it has been adopted by .the leading phonograph companies. It has an automatic regula- tor to take care of the fluctuations of the line current from your power house. Radiola 28 needs no antenna, no in- stallation. Use it anywhere. It is so selective that in the most crowded broadcast ‘areas it gets only the station you want. Thus it meets two big prob- lems of the city apartment. While an inexpensive antenna coupler adapts Radiola 28 for an outdoor antenna, if you prefer it. The “catacomb” construction of the Radiola assures you permanent value, with years of fine performance, because the most delicate parts are permanently sealed in against dust and moisture.

NEWMETER CABINET 5 REQUIRED IN EACH ADDED INSTALLATION Rule Is Provided in Electric Wiring Regulations of Washington. GREAT CARE IS URGED IN PLACING SUBFEEDERS Too Large Wire Brings Much Trouble in Connecting Ter- minals to Boxes. By WAL: ™ E. KERN. The electric wiring regulations of the District, under th: provisions of rule 409, section e, require that “An ap- proved meter service cabinet, which is ® combination of switch, fusés and meter connection and testing devices, having no live parts or exposed wiring, |. and capable of being sealed or locked, and with switch externall; operated shall be installed for each meter where the load does not exceed 100 amperes at 220 volts.” There seems to be some confusion in the minds of a few of the electrical con- tractors and workmen as to just what is required under this rule when an ad- ditional meter is installed. Under previous regulations each meter, where more than one was used, was required to be protected by a separate cutout in addition to the protection afforded by the main fuses. The new regulations require essentially the same, except that instead of using a plain cutout for the ‘protection of meters, where more than one is installed, a separa*c meter service cabinet must be used for each meter. This requires that a separate meter service. cabinet shall be installed for the existing meter (if it was not origi- nally protected by a separate cutout) as well as one for the new meter. Where two or more meter service cabinets are installed they must be controlled and protected by a main service switch of the externally operable type. Connected by Troughs. The meter service and main service switch cabinets are usually connected together with rigid conduit nipples or steel troughs. Conduit between main service switch and meter service cabi- nets must not contain both metered and unmetered wires; steel troughs Only are approved for this purpose. Contractors and. workmen are advised to carefully lay out; in advance of in- stallation, groups of meter service cabi- nets, for apartments and office build- ings, as they will save considerable ex- pense; otherwise they will encounter unforeseen difficulties which will be ex- pensive to overcome. Particular atten- tion should be paid to the spacing and cabinets must be ample for the con- nected load, and in any case not small- er than that required by rule 207 of the electric Wiring regulations, D. C. In apartment houses and office build- ings it will usually be necessary to pro- vide a number of subfeeders for rows or groups of meter service cabinets. Care should be taken not to use too large a wire, otherwise trouble will be experi- enced in making connection to the ter- minals of cabinets and the crowding of Wires will result. “ Meter service cabinets must be pro- vided with blank efid walls of the “shutter” type; cabinets with open ends are not approved. Some contractors and workmen seem to be confused as to just what is re- quired in the matter of grounding al- ternating current service neutrals, the armor of cables, conduit and equip- ment. Must Be Grounded. The service neutral of alternating current systems must be grounded at each premises served. The ground wire must not be smaller than No. 8 B & S gage, and it must be connect- ed to the incoming service neutral in the service switch cabinet.

The conduit or-other protecting armor must enter the service switch cabinet and be fastened thereto. with a locknut and bushing or other approved fitting. n any case, the carrying capacity of the neutral grounding wire must have @ carrying capacity of not less than one-fifth of that of the service wire to which it is connected, but in no case shall it be smaller than No. 8 B & & gage. Ground clamps must be of an ap- proved type for grounding lighting and power wiring. Radio or signal ground clamps are not approved for this pur- pose. Conduit, armored cable and equip- ment shall be grounded to a cold water pipe if one is in the premises. No. 10 B & S gage wire is the smallest size wire approved for this purpose; it must be protected the same as required for service neutral ground wires. This ground wiré should be connected to the inside of the service switch cabinet to the screw or lug provided for tnat purpose. The size of the ground wire and the water pipe to which it is con- nected varies with the size of the serv- ice fuses; the sizes required are given in rule 905, section J, of the electric wiring regulations. Gas Pipe Field Limited. Gas piping must be bonded to water piping at some place where they cross or are adjacent. Gas pipes must not be used for grounding service neutrals; they may only be used for grounding fixtures, equipment in the immediate vicinity thereof and short pieces of con- duit, armored cable and metal race- ways. , Artificial grounds (driven pipes. rods or buried plates) are not approved for grounding if“water. piping is available. Separate pipes and plates must be used for grounding service neutrals and cor- duit, armored cable, equipment, &c., rule 901, section C, of the electric wir- ing regulations, District of Columbia, covers in detail the methods for the in- stallation of artificial grounds.

Grounding is a very important factor’ in. electric wiring, it should be carefully and well done, as it is a safeguard against fire as well as shock from high voltage. $500,000 in Accounts Yields Buyer $750 New York, March 26 (By A.

Widespread interest has arisen among Wireless traders’and users ‘1 Australia at the action which has been taken: by the Amalgamatéd Wireless Co. to col- lect royalties on apparatus used for broadcast reteption, aceording to ad- vices from Assistant Trade Commis- sioner J. B. Foster, Melbourne. The company is claiming heavy roy- alties on every valve receiving set sold, by endeavoring to foree wireless traders to sign a license agreement demanding high royalties, and has taken steps to prove its claims to these royalties by instituting legal proceedings against @ large departmént store which con- ducts a radio sales department, but does not pay royalties to Amalga- mated Wireless. Amalgamated Wireless, Ltd., in which the federal government has a controll- ing interest, contends that it holds the Australian patent rights of 145 Mar- coni radio patents. No valve-receiving set, it claims, can be built without utilizing one or more of. these patents. If the company can prove its rights to the patents, it contends it will have ower to prohibit any wireless trader rom sélling valve sets. The price of wireless sets will be greatly increased, and it is expected in Australia that big losses throughout the trade will result and that some small dealers will face bankruptcy. Australian radio traders are reported to be doub‘ful whether. Amalgamated Wireless. holds the patents it claims. Consequently, a company, known as Victorian Radio Interests, Pty., Ltd:. has been formed by wireless traders to oppose the Amalgamated Wireless. seal committee, which has been doing s0 much work during thé last few weeks, is about to rést on his oars ard take time out for a fishing trip in honor of L.

- OF OCEAN MESOAGE DUE TO PERMALLOY Many Believe Metal Opens New Era in Trans-sea Communication. MAGNETIC QUALITIES GIVE GREAT VELOCITY Cablegrams Now Move 100 Times Faster Than Bul- let of Rifle. Owing to its phenomenal speed, which many concede marks the opening of a new era in trans-oceanic communica- tion, such widespread interest has been shown in the Western Union new high- speed cable that many of its patrons seek to solve the riddle of its remark- able efficiency, and learn how cable- grams are shot back and forth between New York and. London with a velocity a hundred times greater than a rifle bullet. The answer, in.a word, is “Permal- loy,” the magic metal, a composition of nickel and iron whose magnetic properties, when scientifically employed as an ingredient in modern cable con- struction, make this tremendous speed possible and enable cable companies to attain little short of miraculous results in submarine telegraphy. But, in order to acquire a broader under- standing of what a= great boon “Permalloy” has conferred upon Mman- kind, and appreciate its significance in the cable world, the layman will per- haps find it interesting to review the principal stages in cable development during the past 60 years. So crude and comparatively primi- tive were the methods employed in operating the first cable in 1866 that the speed of transmission was limited to the receiving operator’s ability to follow the movements of a narrow, two- inch beam of light cast by the reflec- tion of an oil lamp in a miniature mirror attached to the needle of a galvanometer. When the sdAding operator, using the Continental Morse code, wanted to signal a dot, he transmitted a negative electric current through the cable, causing the needle of the galvanometer to sway left; when dash, he transmitted ® positive current and the needle swung right. The receiving operator was obliged to follow the reflected beam religiously and simultaneously record the code characters. At best, it was a slow process because of its small mes- sage-handling capacity, and the rate was $100 for twenty words. : Kelvin Aided Cable. When, a few years later, Lord Kelvin, a British scientist, eminent among cable pioneers, invented the famous siphon-recorder (a tiny, hollow tube of glass that replaced the mirror on the galvanometer needle and, when per- pendicularly suspended from it, func- tioned like a pen and traced out a permanent ink scroll of the needle’s movements on a roll of paper tape slowly unwinding beneath), he mani- festly reduced the chances for error on the part of the receiving operator. and made it possible to slightly increase the speed. Five dollars per word, with a mini- mum of 20 words, -was hot calculated to encourage a free use of the Cables, and the cable companies, therefore, found themselves in a predicament from which they could only hope to emerge when the speed and hence the carrying capacity of a cable could be increased to a point where lower rates would be justified and patronage by the public correspondingly assured, and with this urge the engineers, from time to time, made improvements, the most important of which was the “magnifier,” in instrument designed to increase the output of the cables by 35 per cent. Following the magnifier came the time-saving “rotary regenerator,” which entirely eliminated the retransmission of messages from the invariably remote location of seaside cable stations to a more conveniently situated interior terminal office Thereafter New York was able to ex- change messages with London, Liver- pool, Paris and Emden—the interven- ing land wires actually forming exten- sions of the cable circuits at either end, and the possibilities of the re- generators were demonstrated when a group of business men met in the San Francisco office of the Western Union and talked by cable to a similar group in London All of these improvements, however, were in the type of apparatus used in operating the cables, and little, if any- thing, was accomplished in the im- provement of the construction of the cable itself until the invention of “per- malloy.” This super-metal, under cer- tain conditions, so effectively supple- ments the conductive properties of or- dinary copper that when wrapped as a thin ribbon around the copper conduc- tor of a submarine cable gives the ca- ble the unprecedented speed of 2,500 letters per minute. Grades Electrical Roadbed How does it do it? Simply by grad- ’ Ing the lectrical roadbed in the cable to an exquisitely uniform level and re- moving all the bumps, cuts and ob- stacles which otherwise exist in or- dinary cables and bar the smooth pas- sage of its fast-flying signals. By elim- inating the electrical friction, which would and formerly did exhaust the signals before they raced through the entire course of the cable, the way for unhindered passage was opened and they now emerge unruffied, coherent, whole and full of energy, instead of arriving spent, worn, and barely re- cognizable from an, otherwise rough journey over a nearly impassable road. Instead of one signal getting stuck in the rough and being passed by another or rammed from the rear with disas- trous effect upon the equanimity of the order-loving operator, when formerly it arrived in a state of great dishevel- signal now registers in per- a rate of 40 a second. home in a dazing blur of dots and dashes. . : .

In the case of an ordinary Atlantic cable this interval is about one-tenth of a second, and in a loaded cable (permalloy wrapped) the time interval may be reduced to about one-sixtieth of a second, the speed being propor- tionately increased. This lagging effect is easily overcome in land telegraphy by means of re- peaters at frequent intervals giving fresh impulses to the waves as they travel along, but this is obviously im- practical in submarine telegraphy; nor is it possible without injury to the cables to give a more powerful kick to the initial impulses by increasing the voltage. DUKE IS SOCIAL LIGHT IN NEW MARX CABINET Walther von Kendell, Minister of Interior, Also Is Young- est Member. Berlin, March 26 (By A. P.).—Wal- ther von Kendell, the new nationalist minister of the interior, grandson of the former ruling Duke Ernst, of the house of Wuerttemberg, is the most distinguished social acquisition of the new Marx cabinet. He is the son of the late Robert von Keudell, intimate friend of Prince Bismarck and Ambas- sador to Rome, who only recently was recalled by King Victor Emmanuel as “one of the most imposing German dip- lomats ever sent. to the Italian capi- tal.” Parents and grandparents of the minister of the interior were gifted musicians. His father was frequently invited to play before the late Empress Margherita, of Italy. His mother, Alexandra, the daughter of Natalie Eschhorn, famous concert singer of the ‘fifties, is a remarkable pianist. Rubinstein and Josef Joachim fre- quently played to select audiences in the Von Keudell Berlin mansion. The younger Von Keudell’s wife is a mem- ber of one of the oldest aristocratic families of Saxony, He is 43 years old, the youngest member of the cabinet. GERMAN NATIONALIST HAS SOCIALIST GUEST Hergt Obliged to Invite Loebe, President of Reichstag, to Reception. Berlin, March 26. (By A. P ).—Paul Loebe, social democrat and president of the reichstag, tells an amusing story of the new line-up resulting from the entry of the German nationalists into the cabinet. Oscar Hergt, the new nationalist vice chancellor minister of justice, gave a “bpierabend,” or reception. As Loebe holds an office equivalent to that of Speaker of the House of Representatives in America, Hergt could not do other- wise than invite the socialist leader to his conservative home. Loebe promptly accepted. As luck would have it, he happened to stand right behind Hergt when the doors opened and Herr von Roseriberg, former foreign minister and now Ger- man envoy to Sweden, entered. Looking about the room and seeing only fami- liar Junker faces, he sighed deeply and said fervently to Hergt, “I thauk good- ness, we are among ourselves.’ His embarrassment was visible when Loebe, who had been completely obscured by the taller Hergt, smilingly emerged from behind Hergt’s broad back. SOCIETY GIRL TO SEE HER PLAY PRESENTED Atlanta Coed Wins Honor With Four Boys at Oglethorpe U. Atlanta, March 26 (By A.

So she went back to school this sea- son and now her play, “The Greatest of These,” is the only one by a coed at Oglethorpe university to be decided upon for presentation by Lewis Hasse, Atlanta dramatic director. She and four Boys won in the selection of the five best plays. | Atlante’s social season was at its height when Miss Lewman decided she wanted to know something about jour- nalism and playwriting and more about such sub as biology and sociology.

SHOWER MORE GENERAL OVER LATIN AMERICA Old Cistern Bath Is Accepted Method Throughout Java and Siam. The fact that modern plumbing equipment is considered in the nature of a luxury rather than a necessity in many forei¢ : countries has limited the sales of American sanitary devices abroad, according to a trade. bulletin issued by the iron and steel division of the Department. of Commerce. It is true, the report states, that the demand throughout the world for modern plumbing supplies ‘is increasing, but this demand is confined almost entirely to the wealthier classes. There are many deterring factors, it is pointed out, which mitigate against the extensive aise of plumbing fixtures in foreign cities, but the chief draw- back is undoubtedly the lack of a suf- ficient and dependable supply of run- ning water. In a considerable number of foreign cities the water supply is n only inadequate, but the. pressure is so low that the water can not be forced beyond the first floor. To over- come this difficulty storage tanks are often placed in attics or on the roofs of buildings. Some foreign cities and towns find it essential to conserve their water supply by turning off the water for certain periods each day. With the exception of the English- speaking countries, the habit of bath- ing is not indulged in to an extent at all comparable with that of the United States. In one or two countries, at least, bathing the entire body is con- sidered as detrimental to health. This | belief, however, is not as bizarre as it % tens 1 ee oe * Sk baa a: » Sahay ny a. alc Pe (a oe Ss > . > BPs . tee amy ~ , * ‘ ) os. i* . * TMT i aolt : . get ee RR ys’ XS ¢ ; ° . t | wn 4 g longer than 75 years ago in this country. sounds when one remembers that not many States placed obstacles in the way of bathtubs. Taxes were imposed on tubs, and one New England city an ordinance it unlaw- ful to use a bathtub without the ad- vice of a doctor. The methods preferred in taking baths varies widely in foreign countries, a study of the report reveals. Shower baths are more general in Latin-Amer- ican dwellings than tubs. The Brit- isher, on the contrary, sticks to his tub, and showers are practically never seen outside of a gymnasium. Bathtubs. in French and Belgian homes are extremely rare, being found in not more than 5 per cent of the dwellings. Foreign-made tubs are used extens'vely in hotels and inns in Japan, but the Japanese themselves, who are great bathers, prefer the pub- lic baths. When the average Chinese bathes, he does it in an earthenware tub called a “soochow,” while in Java and Siam the cistern bath is the ac- cepted method, . The bathtubs used abroad also dif- fer to a certain extent. The built-in type so much in use at the present time in the United States is rarely found in foreign countries, with the exception of Canada. The most widely used tub abroad is the enamel iron type which stands on legs. The Nor- wegians like their tubs, however, with legs which can be detached. The size of the average tubs range from 5 feet 6 inches to 6 and even 7 feet but the smaller sizes are preferred. For the five years ended with 1925, American exports of plumbing supplies of all kinds had an average value of something like $2,000,000. Last year, however, foreign sales increased by more than 10 per cent, rising to $2,- 266,000. Great Britain and Germany are perhaps the most important foreign countries exporting plumbing equip- ment, but considerable quantities of French,, Dutch, Polish, Czechoslovak and Swiss fixtures are also sold in lands foreign to that of origin. Can- ada, Mexico and Cuba are our largest markets for sanitary equipment. Any material extension of our foreign trade in plumbing supplies, the report points out, must be accomplished by educating the general public to the advantages of modern plumbing.as it is known in this country. The restrict- ed purchasing power of many foreign peoples will doubtless serve to limit the general use of expensive foreign equip- ment, However, once the idea is inculcated that modern plumbing is desirable from the standpoint of health, con- venience, and comfort, an increasing demand for plumbing supplies will un- doubtedly accompany the rising scale of living. ‘roa NOUN CYR a MEE ree Bey, av | : MM ty, nl Vy eA y Zt ULLLES a ij VA Mad) FORMED lation of Isles, Of- ficial Declares. WHITE LIST OF THEATERS London, March 26 (By A. P.).—Non- smokers believe they haven't a chance in England, and they don’t like it. They have formed the National 8So- ciety of Nonsmokers and have adopt- ed a badge which all members are urg- ed to wear as a warning to railway officials, hotel, cafe and theater pro-; prietors. “We shan’t appeal to the League of Nations as an ‘oppressed minority’” declared a prominent member of the society. “We are not a minority. We nonsmokers make up at least. two- thirds of the population of the British Isles, but we are treated by the rail- ways, cinemas, cafes and theaters as if we did not exist.” Men and women alike are very gen- erally ignoring “No Smoking” signs in England. Music halls, cinemas and even many of the first-class legiti- mate theaters permit. pipes, cigarg and cigarettes alike.

DRIVE NO CAR . WITH DEFECTIVE BRAKES THE WASHINGTON POST: ee ee eee ae SUNDAY. MARCH 27, ’ Sreten ee ee ee RESPECT THE RIGHTS OF THE PEDESTRIAN NEW GOLOR PHASE IN MOTOR INDUSTRY NOW BEING CREATED Makers Are Centering Skill.on : Problem of Making Cars Attractive. ONLY EXPENSIVE OLD AUTOS HAD RICH HUES Nash Follows Modistes’ Pro- : cedure in Evolving Dashing : Dress for Models. : A picturesque new phase in the évo- fution of the motor car is now being created through the emphasis placed upon the value of color harmony in motor car appearance. Just as the famed foreign couturiers, in evolving mew models in feminine.apparel, turned to color and color schemes in a multi- tude of delicate graduations, s0 now stthe great motor car makers are center- ing their skill and ingenuity upon the problems of giving their products rich- ness and variety to the eyc by means of stimulating color combinations. A few years ago the majority of au- tomobiles made no appeal to the eye save through the symmetry of their proportions. Dull black and drab blue were the tones most in evidence. Only among the most expensive models was there a discernible attempt to give the car a rich and colorful aspect. But now @ great change is taking place and in this as in néw engineéring develop- ments and in the creation of original body designs, Nash is establishing new standards. The new models Nash is introducing are vividly illustrative of the art that Nash exercises in evolving color combi- nations of authentic tone and of real appeal to the cultured taste. The methods Nash pufsues to develop the possibilities of color in relation to motor cars are of extreme interest. In prin- ciple and practice the procedure is much the s4me as that which the lead- ing modistes of Paris pursue in conjur- ing up their notable color effects in fabrics. Just as their colorists visit the sumptuous fashion shows with géager eye, so do Nash color experts at- tend the great motor shows in foreign fenters. Here they study what the Old World has originated under the influ- énce of the most famous foreign col- _. Visit Notable Salons. i Nash experts visit the most notable @utomobile salons held in America and Qppraise the effects revealed in the costliest American motor cars. At the big Nash-Seaman body plant in Mil- Waukee endlesa color experimentations are carried on. And, again, as the cou- turiers in fashioning some exquisite new evening gown conduct as pe after éxperiment, match color. balanced harmon! vit : trasts, so Nash pred ie . after combination of colors and actually finishes cars with them. These gare the passenger car. LITTLE MARMON CONVERTIBLE COUPE Regularly a two-passenger job, this model is provided with a rumble seat in the rear deck which can be opened by pulling a lever in the driving compartment. jected or employed as a base for an- other tone or combination of tones Few people, indeed, have any com- prehension of the scope of color study. Aubert, the famous. color scientist, found that there are more than 1,000 hues actually distinguishable in the spectrum. Yet with all the vast re- search work that has been carried on for centuries, we do not as yet know definitely the réasons why any particu- lar substance presents itself to our eyes as colored. We do not know that color ris the product of light and that we see colored bodies under two conditi first, by transmission where the light comes to our eyes through the sub- stance, as with stained glass, and sec- ond, by reflection where the light is re- flected from the object to our eyes, as in the case with a motor car. The Nash color experts achieve théir effects by mixing one.color with an- other or by combining a number of colors and then working out still fur- ther combinations by strengthening or reducing one particular color in the combination which in turn serves to change the entire tone. It is with such infinite care and artistry that Nash achieves the refinement and subtlety that is revealed in the superb color combinations that distinguish the Nash product. Litle Made Chairman Of Technical Group Thomas J. Litle, jr., chief engineer of the Marmon Motor Car Co., has been n| appointed chairman of the techncal ad- visory committee of the Society of Au- tomotive Engineers to cooperate with the contest board of the American Au- tomobile association, of which Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker is chairman. This cooperation between the 8. A. E. and the A. A.

CAUSE OF FUEL KNOGK STILL UNDETERMINED Tests Proposed to Rate Gas According to Detona- tion Properties. INJURY DUE TO DEFECTS Fuel knocks or detonation of the charge in an automobile engine is caused by abnormally rapid combustion as compared with normal combustion. Just what is the cause of this speed- ing up of the burning of the charge has not been determined, although several ingenious hypotheses have been ad- vanced, according to a report made by Thomas Midgeley, jr., chairman of a subcommittee of the research commit- tee of the Society of Automotive Engi- neers, at the annual meeting of the society and published in the March issue of that organization’s monthly journal. It is known that detonation is in- creased by increasing the temperature or the pressure of the charge during the time of the explosion and that local hot-spots or an increase in the length of flame travel also tend to increase the phenomenon. Detonation varies greatly with the air and fuel ratio of the mixture. The effects of detonation are, first, a disagreeable noise, varying from a slight “ping” to a very loud clatter; loss of power if the knocking is severe, and a tendency to overheat the engine and the cooling water. Second, this over- heating frequently results in preigni- tion; and, third, in extreme cases break- ing of the spark-plug porcelains, actual rupture of the piston heads and dam- age to bearings or other structural parts may result. Probably the most important effect of the tendency toward detonation is that it limits the compression pressure that can be used in an engine to give sat- isfactory performance with ordinary commercial fuels. the fuel ecohomy. Chemical composition of the fuel probably is the greatest single factor that influences detonation, according to the report. The paraffin hydrocarbons that occur in straight-run gasolines ap- parently tend to knock badly, whereas certain other paraffin hydrocarbons are good antiknock fuels. As a.class, how- ever, the naphthene, aromatic and ole- fine hydrocarbons which oecur in many straight-run or cracked gasolines tend to knock distinctly less than the nor- mal paraffin hydrocarbons. One of the most difficult problems in connection with detonation is that of comparing accurately the detonation characteris- tics of the different fuels. Many, but not all, compounds of ni- trogen have a moderate antiknock ef- fect; and practically all volatile com- pounds of iodine, selenium, tellurium, nickel, cobalt, tin and lead have marked effects in preventing detona- tion. _Some are effective even when present in extremely small quantities. It is recommended that future re- search be directed toward the deévelop- ment of a standard and reproducible method of testing and rating fuels as to their detonation properties, modifi- cation of both engines and fuels so that higher compression pressures can be used without detonation, and deter- mination of the mechanism of detona- tion and its prevention. Airplane Passenger Service for Nome Nome, Alaska, March 26 (By A. P.)— Airplane passenger service has been extended to Nome, Pilot Joe Crosson arrived from Fair- banks yesterday and started the return trip with Alfred Lomen, Nome rein- deer exporter, as a passenger. Cros- son made the 550-mile journey from Fairbanks in less than seven hours. It takes three weeks by dog team. Lomen, en route. to New York on business, hopes to set a record by making the trip in fifteen days. He will proceed from Fairbanks to the coast by rail and thence to Seattle by steamer. This seriously limits 180 Degrees Urged for Motors. The ideal temperature for an engine to operate is 180 degrees.

s ; ws Te UA SALLE SEDANS. MAKE TEST TRIPS TO PACIFIC GORST Cars Complete the Detroit-to- Los Angeles Journey in 69 Hours. 5,500 MILES TRAVELED; SPEEDOMETERS AT 40 Held Most Successful Experi- ment Ever Conducted by the Cadillac Co. Across 5,500 miles of the United States in which snow and sleet, rain and mud, hot desert sands, and long tortuous hills stretching to thousands of fect above sea level were encoun- tered, two LaSalle sedans taken from the very first in the regular production line of the new cars and containing no spe- cial preraration or equipment, recently completed a cross-country journey from Detroit to Los Angeles and return in a . Manner which engineers in charge of * the trip spoke of as the most success- ful experiment of its kind ever conduct- ed by the Cadillas Motor Car Co. The run was part of the regular policy of the company of observing their car under every possible driving condition. Although the trip was neither in- tended as a test nor a record-breaking run, the distance between Detroit and Los Angeles was cove~ed in 69 hours of actual running time. An average speed of 40 miles an hour was maintained. The party included William R. Strick- land, Cadillac assistant chief engineer; Ernest C. Garland, service engineer; Charlies E. Williams, carbureter engi- neer, and J. William James, manager of publicity. The route West was over the Old Na- tional Trail and the return trip was made by way of San Diego, Phoenix and the Santa Fe Trail. Elated Over Trip. The engineers in charge of the trip, all veterans of the Cadillac orguniza- ticn who had made many similar cross- country tours, expressed themselves as being highly elated over the success of the run. Ernest C. Garland, the service engineer, has been a member of the C dillac personnel singe the day of the one-cylinder cars and the present was his fourth trip to California on similar missions. ) A remarkable feature of the trip was th that in spite of the condition of the roads, and in spite of the fact that the cars were new, no adjustments were made on the route and for the return journey. At the coast city the cars were greased, and that was all. Every type of driving condition was encountered. Leaving Detroit in the dead of the Michigan winter, the cars swung westward and southward through Seven-passenger Cadillac model, one of the distinctive types being built by this company. the snow and mud of early spring into the summer sunshine of California. “Before any new or improved car pro- duced by Cadillac is placed in regular production, it has already undergone innumerable tests in long, grueling runs and by high speed tests at the General Motors proving grounds,” says Mr. Garland. “The remarkable run- ning time which these new LaSalle cars maintained over every type of roadbed, in all kinds of weather and at every altitude, established more firmly the conviction of these earlier tests. Schedule Worked Out. “Before leaving Detroit ~ schedule of the distance to be covered each day was worked out. Freedom from trouble made it possible to carry this out com- pletely, without a single exception. The running time of the Chief, the crack Santa Fe train between Chicago and Los Angeles, was beaten consistently. “In addition to revealing their capa- bilities for extraordinary speed over long periods of time, the LaSallcs demon- strated marked ability to hold the road. Smooth riding created a feeling of great safety and reliance on the cars. Ease of control on turns or rough roads, and even in fresh, unpacked gravel, free- dom from road shocks and level riding on turns all made possible high daily, mileage without excessive speed.” Girls Cause Traffic | Troubles, Is Charge Rochester, N. Y., March 26 (By A. P.). It’s the girls that cause the traffic troubles, junior traffic officers appoint- ed from schools to safeguard their fel- lows, announce. Their spokesman’s explanation: “Some guy makes goo-goo eyes at a girl and the girl thinks she’s some sheba and looks around to see how many girls are looking at her.” Right then, and there the traffic troubles start, he said; Firm Hold Urged in Driving. To keep the car steady and to prevent the rim of the steering wheel from sliding. through the hands, it is not only necessary to keep both hands on the wheel, but to grasp the wheel in such a way that it is impossible to slip should the front wheels strike an ob- struction or a tire blow out. FTHYL GAS DECLARED OF FLEXIBLE PROPERTIES Freedom From Knocking, as With Ordinary Gasoline, Called Revelation. ADVANTAGES CONSIDERED By EDWIN GREER, President Greer College of Automotive & Electrical Trades, Chicago, Ill. Much has been written in the East about Ethyl. Only recently has she gone West. And now West coast news- papers have crowded Menthyl off the front page to make way for Ethyl. Who is Ethyl? In appearance Ethyl-gas fluid is champagne-colored. Before it is placed into special containers it is colored red, for the purpose of making it easily recognizable. It has a pungent ‘odor of its own. In dwelling on the peculiar virtues of ethyl-gas fluid it should be under- stood that the fluid does not make high-test gasoline of low volatility fuel. Indeed, it does not add power to the gasoline proper. Rather does its action become apparent in the manner in which it changes the conditions under which the fuel is consumed in the engine. Ordinary gasoline acts with the de- tonating, short-lived force of black powder; ethyl gas develops its energy like the smokeless powder in that it burns progressively throughout the passage of the piston through the cylinder. Ethyl-gas in high-compression en- gines showed a flexibility approaching that of the steam engine, a high-gear climbing ability that was a revelation, an utter freedom from knocking that was truly astonishing. Motorists or repairmen who have oc- casion to remove the heads of engines in which ethyl gas has been used for a prolonged period are quite apt to mis- interpret what they see. A valve taken from such an engine presents an un- familiar appearance and may be mis- taken for a badly burned. valve. It is Only necessary to paint these deposits black to recognize their true nature, whereas a short soaking in a sodium dioxide solution readily dissolves the deposits and shows the metal beneath unaffected. The lead component leaves a light deposit of its own; this does not ac- cumulate beyond a thin coating. If some of this deposit enters between a valve and its seat—in the case of car- bon a decidedly undesirable happen- ing—the ethyl deposits, far from being a menace, become an advantage in seal- ing up the slight leaks to which valves are subject after prolonged running. What does it all mean? I am cer- tain that engine builders and motorists are facing the advent of the long- sought but hitherto unattainable high- compression engine which, small in dis- placement and economical in fuel con- sumption, will.develop great power. If we now utilize only 5 per cent of the gasoline energy, the additional 5 per cent achieved by the use of ethyl gas in high-compression engines will dou- ble the efficiency of the gasoline engine. More than that, it will double the power we may obtain from our gasoline re- sources, lengthen the life of our en- gines and make the car a greater boon than ever. Architecture Award To a Denver Man New York, March 26 (By A. P.).— Earl C. Norris, of Denver, Colo., has been awarded the 1927 Le Brun travel- ing scholarship, a major award in United States architecture, it was an- nounced by the New York chapter, American Institute of Architects. The scholarship valued at $1,400, was founded in 1910 by Pierre L. Le Brun, architect of the Metropolitan tower, in memory of his brother. It provides for six months’ study abroad. First mention was given W. Ray Winegar, of Detroit. Your Next Car » hy | T 3 il 4 | FREQUENT CHANGING ADVISED TO SAVE AUTO Necessary, Streeter Declares, if Car Is to Be Kept Running Properly. SUGGESTIONS FOR AUTOIST By DON STREETER, Service Manager, Reo Motor Car Co. In spite of the fact that manufactur- ers, garage men and dealers constantly stress the importance~of frequent oil changes in engine lubrication, many motorists fail to see why this changing is so vital. . The introduction of improved lubri- cating systems, oil filters and devices to lessen oil dilution in the crankcase has done much to cut down lubrication troubles, but the subject of oil chang- ing still demands the careful attention of the motorist. What happens when you fail to change oil? In the first place, heat produces a chemical change in oil which causes it to lose its lubricating qualities. Gasoline may become mixed with the oil, lowering: its efficiency. When there is no oil filter, particles of metal from the wearing surfaces and a certain amount of dirt and dust which accumulate in the crank ‘case oil may be forced to the engine operating parts. Unless all the oil is drained out of the crankcase, foreign matter will remain there. It is not sufficient to add only enough oil to keep the proper level. A new engine requires more frequent oil changes than an engine which is “proken in,” because new bearing sur- surfaces throw off a greater number of metal particles. After the first 500 miles of driving, it is advisable to change the oil in the engine. Repeat this operation every 2,500 miles in warm weather and every 1,000 miles in cold weather. Fortunately for the motorist, oil service is today so highly developed that it is possible to get disinterested advice from filling station service men, oil dealers and garage men as to the best type of oil to use for your engine. In addition to this, manufacturers issue booklets of. instructions with new cars, telling just what sort of oil to use for best results. Remember that at speeds of 40 miles an hour or greater, oil consumption by the motor is considerably higher than at lower speeds. With ordinary driving, the motor may consume one quart of oil for every 125 miles of travel, but this amount becomes greater as speed increases. Window “Shopper” Tests Crowd Theory New York, March 26 (By A. P.)— Any one seeing a young man gazing into a store window in this city: is advised to resist that impulse to follow his example. The intently interested young man is only acting as a lure for a psychologist collecting data on curiosity. This was revealed when Co- lumbia university told how various students worked their way through college.

75 Per Cent of New Sales Involve Transfer of Old Automobiles. TRADE-IN ACCEPTABLE ONLY IF IT CAN BE SOLD To Avoid a Big Volume of Business at Second- Hand Loss. - - Used cars, long the difficult end of the automobile business, are beginning to make their weight felt, and as a re- sult the merchandising of motor cars is slowly but surely undergoing a change. Dealers have come to the realization of the fact that used cars are merchan- dise and success in the business de- pends very largely upon the manner in which this particular brand of goods is marketed. Today about 76 cent of all automobile sales involve the han- dling of a second-hand machine. Heretofore allowance prices on this kind of merchandise have been. more or less a battle of wits between the cus- tomer and the dealer. This was so be- cause the goods in question had no fixed value. The vendor, because it was his individual property, natural}y set on the article in question what he thought it was worth to him. He based this worth also in a measure upon the list price of the new article that he was contemplating buying. In this he hada the advantage of the vendee, in this case the new car dealer, because he was offering to sell, as part of the purchase price, something of uncertain and fluctuating value, for an article that had a predetermined price. The prospective purchaser of the new car heretofore also had another advan- tage of the new car dealer. The fac- tories, on their part looking for an out- let for production, in years gone by have insisted on the dealer taking a certain quota of automobiles. Quota Was Fixed. This quota was fixed, and not sub- ject to change unless on account of some very unusual condition. There have been occasions where the dealer with a big stock of new cars on hand has listened to the barter of the cus- tomer and given him more by far in trade for his old automobile than he possibly could ever hope to get out of it. The selling year of 1927 is seeing a definite change in the handling of the aised car situation. Dealers, one and all, have learned that it is not always volume of new car business that means profits at the end of the year. Frozen assets in the way of used cars that rap- idly depreciate in value have caused them to be more cautious in the man- ner in which. their used car depart- ments have been conducted, This year, -without exception, they are going to be content, if necessary, with a less vol- ume of new car business unless used cars can be accepted at a price that will permit their resale without loss. Fac- tory cooperation is also going to make this thing rossible; because the desire for production records on the part of the manufacturer, which h apes nec- essary,in the past if they wete to con- tinue their present low prices, is al- most a thing of the past. .Competi- tion has taught the industry many short cuts to economy, anc, while it is not possible to reduce production below a certain point without the danger of a loss per unit, still the economies of manufacture that have come into gen- eral practice during the past few years, it is hoped, will permit smaller produc- tion if necessary at present prices. Scientific Basis Used. Used cars today are being bought on scientific basis. Cost of conditioning and overheads are figured in and de- ducted from the allowance price. This method is not being practiced by any one dealer or any particular group, but by them all. The result is perhaps go- ing to be that in many instances the man will decide to keep his old car, have the necessary repair work done on it and drive it for another year at least. This naturally will mean the loss of some sales, but it is an economically sound condition. Heretofore there have been too many automobiles traded in simply because the owner was tired of his present car. It had many miles of satisfactory transportation left in it that necessarily must be sacrificed on a trade-in, and of which no one gets the benefit. Also in the long run it tended to lower the price of all used cars. If the customer drives his car far ther, learns that keeping it in good mechanical condition, having it oiled and greased at regular intervals, in the end his cost per mile of operation will be less than it ever was before, and when finally it comes time to dispose of it there will not be the loss that up to now has been taken on second-hand automobiles, direc@y perhaps by the dealer, but indirectfy by tk> customer, for after all he is the one who pays the bills.

DEALERS BEING ADVISED ! Public announcement was made in January that Dodge Brothers, Inc., will enter the market this summer with a car in the higher priced field. Since that time Dodge Brothers dealers every- where have been beset with an inces- sant flood of inquiries regarding the new supplementary car. Raphael Semmes, president of the Semmes Motor Co., local dealer, has just received an official announcement from Detroit emphasizing some of the statements previously made regarding the new car and containing informa- tion of interest to many prospective purchasers. “We are pleased to advise Dodge Brothers’ dealers that progress on the supplementary car is thoroughly up to schedule and it will be available for moderate retail delivery on or before July 1, the date heretofore announced,” states Mr. Semmes, “We are naturally receiving many in- quiries seeking a description of the car. Its specifications will not be released, however, until it is ready to be shown. “While the announcements concern- ing it, already made, have emphasized the fact that_it will be a considerably higker priced car in no way conflicting with our present standard product, there are doubtless a number of buying prospects who have been led to believe that the difference in price between our standard car and the supplementary car will be small, and therefore some of your prospects may be disposed to defer their spring purchase of present product until full announcement of the supplementary car. “In order to dispel any such uncer- tainty that may-exist we are therefore advising you authoritatively that the supplementary car will be sold at a price of $1,650 at the factory, for the four- door sedan. “We also take this occasion to again assure you that production of the pres- ent Dodge Brothers power plant and the sale of our present standard line of cars will be continued; rumors inconsistent with this statement are false and mis- leading and should be promptly and vigorously denied.” Pictures Are Flashed On Clouds and Smoke Schenectady, N.

SALES OF HIS COMPANY NEVER BETTER, HE SAYS Activity Opening Up 20 Days Ahead of Schedule, He Declares. An optimistic note on the spring business outlook in the automobile in- dustry, discounting the “saturation point” bugaboo and pointing out fa- vorable conditions throughout the country, is sounded in a statement just issued by William 8S. Knudsen, presi- dent and general manager of the Chev- rolet Motor Co. “In forecasting a continuance of good business prospects for the spring months, I am perhaps influenced by the aspect of our own sales which have never been better in the history of the company,” said Mr. Knudsen. “As evidencing steady growth in au- tomobile production during this period, statistics issued by the United States Department of Commerce for the last three years. covering the six months from January 1 to June 30 are interest- ing. The figures for these years fol- 2,054,561 . «2,173,525 “With these figures showing business on the upgrade generally, there are only two. reasons which could be ad- vanced for a possible decrease in sales— first, reaching the so-called ‘saturation point’—and second, a general decline in business producing a reactive tendency in buying. “No one kas ever been able to ad- vance any reasonable formula for figur- ing the ‘saturation point.’ The ‘two or more’ car trend is so pronounced that former ‘theories are being constantly upset. Ahead of Schedule. “If we knew the total area which would be occupied if all cars produced were running within that area, making it impossible for this space to accom- modate any more cars, some basis would be available for figuring ‘satura- tion.’ But such a situation is impos- sible—and we may leave the ‘satura- tion point’ for the future to determine, inasmuch as the human mind will find it possible to open up any bottle-neck of traffic congestion which migkt de- velop. “As for the general trend in business, country-wide reports show the usual spring activity is opening up twenty days ahead of schedule. With the win- ter fairly mild; marked only by severity in spots, rapid acceleration of munici- pal .and private construction operations is indicated. Farming should start early, due to the good weather and manufacturing operations generally are in excellent condition. “Rapid turnover at smaller profits is the keynote throughout industry as re- flected by our country’s business. With this policy can only come a demand for more transportation. “The shippers are demanding better freigkt service; the business traveler is demanding better train service, and the automobile user is demanding better service of his car, and the firm that is in @ position to assure the buyer this better service can have nothing but ae prospects for the spring of 1 Pos i" ee Mote ’ P 7 > ae . de es he yada, ee ) Sores IT “f ota i eet ee ee: 4 “eS & 7. ad a A Pe, 2 ear : rs eee, BG wigteCh cer la ae Oe * # ’ * . > e “ Passenger cars represented in Washington, who handles ’ them and where they are located: Auburn. ........

POINTS TO ADVANTAGES IN CONGESTED TRAFFIC American Manufacturers Said to Have Taken Suggestion From European Cars. By R. W. JUDSON, President Continental Motors Corpora- Nn. The past few years have seen a dis- tinct ehange in the trend of motor car design... In. place of the heavy, cumbersome, space consuming passen- ger cars, formerly so popular, the pep- dulum has swung back to the light- weight, substantial, easily handled ma- chines. There is no longer any necessity for the bulky, gas-comsuming car.. We have taken a lesson ffom Europe, where the rrecessity for fuel economy forced the light, compact car to the front. It has. been found in this country that the average load per car is one and one-half passengers, which has re- sulted in lighter cars patterned after European models. Traffic Jams Bring Change. Aside from fuel saving, traffic con- ditions have played an important part. City streets and country roads are more often than not jammed with traffic. The necessity for a quick get-away when the signal says ‘‘go” presents it- self dozens of times daily. It is for this reason that the light, but sturdily- bullt and easily-handled car has come to the fore. Race meets have also had a wide in- fluence in determining the design and character of present-day cars—particu- larly the design and type of motor. The practicability of the light car was , exemplified in the onesman mosquito ‘racers. In these the cars were designed around the motors... Everything was subservient to the power plant. It was found that the motor de- signed for greatest accessibility, with all excess weight eliminated, was most efficient and practical not only for rac- ing, but for general purposes. The Continental’ Motors Corporation, de- signers and specialists in motor manu- facturing, are continually making ex- tensive laboratory and road tests, as well as test performance on the racing track. They foresaw the present trend and designed Red Seal Continental motors to meet existing conditions, Compact Motor Meets Tests. The small, compact, motor has not enly proven its advantages through continuous use but it has enabled the automobile manufacturer to bring down his car weight without sacrificing power efficiency. It has aleo been found that greatly increased production has resulted, due to increased demands in both local and foreign markets. This increased production has enabled the manufacturer to decrease his costs, thus furnishing a better motor for leas money. Today, the compact, economical power plant is in the ascendancy, The needs of the motoring public have never be- fore been as fully met, and when time and experience prove that additional changes and refinements are advisable, the motor manufacturer will be ready to make them. Stresemann to Visit Rome, Paper States Rome, March 26 (By A, P.)—Popolo Di Roma says Foreign Minister Strese- mann of Germany will visit Rome shortly while en route with his fam- ily to Taormina, Sicily. They will re- main at Taormina until.April 21, when, they wlil go to Syracuse, Sicily, to wit- ness the spectacles in the classical Greek theater there which King Fer- dinand of Roumania also is expected to attend. Boy Hurls His Books Into Burning School Pierre, 8. D., March 26 (By A.

NG NS | E | WN |: OF AUTOS ADVISED TD GURE DEFECTS Nee Overhauling Proposed to Save Time and Trouble Later in the Season. ™ WINTER USE DECLARED - HARD ON MOST CARS All.Parts Considered to Need Examination and Replace- ment if Worn. Motoring conditions will soon be ideal.and the wise motorist is the one who either has or is preparing to take his car to the service station to have it thoroughly inspected. “This inspection will naturally show up some attentions that the machine should have, for it is acknowledged that winter driving inflicts the great- est amount of hardship upon the automobile. Valves should. be ground, carbon removed, for there is hardly an automobile that has been in service for the winter months that at least does not need this attention. Timing should be checked, the generator examined to see that it is charging properly, all connections looked after, spark plugs removed and cleaned. If they have been in use for a long time it might be well to replace them, for though the electrodes are made of very hard material, they will burn off a little and widen the gap that the spark jumps. across to such an extent that the advantage of a fat spark is lost. All engine bolts should be tightened, the fan belt examined and possibly re- newed. Brake Examination Advised. Body and fender bolts should be tightened. Brakes should be examined, and if there. is much wear now is the time to have them relined. The start- er in checking the ignition system will come in for inspection. ‘It is not a bed Ren ow = have the transmission and up and the gears sotked Bi at. woo Same time it is a fine plan to have sheen flushed dut and new grease put in. Motor oil should be changed and the crankcase flushed out. Wheels, rims and tires should be checked. The car should be thoroughly washed, especially the chassis and run- ning gear and then given a good greas- ing. Small Things, But Important. These are all small things, many of which can be done by the owner if he feels so inclined, but they are the v things the neglect of which causes siderable annoyance and perhaps source of some trouble when using th car for an outing later in the year. Even though you are in the habit of taking your or bas regularly to the service department for inspection, it is not a bad idea to go in and ask to have a more thorough examination made than ordinarily. Switches Ordered For Bobbed Nurses Bloomsburg, Pa., March 26 (By A. P.)—Student nurses in a hospital here who have bobbed their hair must wear switches or nets, under an official edict. PARIS DANCE TEMPLE MAY BECOME SCHOOL Isadora Duncan’s Old Struc- ture Likely to Be Bought as Public Memorial. Paris, March 26 (By A, P.).—Isadora Duncan's old “Temple of the Dance,” sold for debt, is likely to be bought by public. subscription and made a memorial school. Friends of the dancer, aided by Comoedia, a theatrical paper have raised a good part of thesthird of a million francs needed to py back the property. This “temple” once was a fine old, high-ceilinged villa in Neuilly, but when Isadora Duncan’s life became complicated by her Russian poet-hus- band and her interest in the ways of the Moscow Bolsheviki, it became a small manufacturing plant and re- cently was sold under a mortgage fore- closure. Isadora Duncan is to operate the school but it will be given to the. gov- ernment. Everyone says-Nothing like it in the world” The mere announcement of the Super-Six principle, freed, to the limit, focused on Hudson a dramatic public expectancy such as never awaited any other car. In appearance and value, as well as performance, it is the most talked of " car of the year. New riders, new buyers and thousands who merely witness its vivid dash on the fer by ‘te NIN: ‘road are saying ‘“There is nothing like it in the world.”’ In all it does, there is effortless case, from its swift, smooth glide into motion, to sustained high speed, and back to the soft instantaneous stopping action of its four wheel brakes.

Suit for Gwinnett’s NO EXPLANATIONS GIVEN Atlanta, March 26 (By A. P).—The ghost of Button Gwinnett, one of the signers of the Declaration of Inde- pendence, has come back to help Geor- gia recover valuable historical docu- ments lost for a century or more. Ever since the State filed claim im a New York court to a will, which carries the signature of Gwinnett, sold at an auction last summer for $22,500, hundreds of the papers have been re- turned almost as mysteriously as they were taken, says Miss Ruth Blair, State historian. “No questions asked,” is the ene condition most of the persons made in returning the document. Others mailed them in anonymously. The Gwinnett will had been in the State’s files at one time, the attorney general contends, and was reported lost about 25 years ago. A number of the papers returned have thrown & new light on the colo- nial period of Georgia. One contains the original minutes of the convention, called in December, 1787, at A for the purpose of ratifying the newly born Federal Construction, Among others were two different drafts of the State’s first constitution, as well as the minutes of three conventions called to convert the English colony into an independent State. Another is the appraiser’s report in 1771 of the personal estate of the Rev. George Whitfield, founder of America’s first permanent orphanage in Savan- nah. He listed, among other things, a book of advice to young girls of that day, and 49 slaves, whose names ranged from Adam to Cato. Betting on the Derby No Sin, Bishop Holds Wellington, N.

In ‘! round figures, half of the Bridge play- - ers of the country use the code adopted : by The Whist Club and would be ut- ‘ terly astounded if they heard of the + customs and practices of the other half. > The “lawless” half do not seem to - know of the existence of a formal code. , Their idea seems to be that Bridge . practices and conventions change like : styse and that a mysterious “They” decree when styles shall change. Half ’ the letters I receive asking some ques- ‘tions about Bridge laws begin with -“They say that;” and then will follow ‘a “rule” about having a new deal when ‘Sone player has neither Ace nor face, or about “reserved bids,” or compulsory «fourth hand bids, or not being permit- : ted to go game on the doubled value of > tricks, or the elimination of all doubles, -&c., &c. Apparently in some com- >munities any one with a little assur- >ance of manner can put new rules jnto _effect wherever and whenever ke or ~she chooses, by asserting (for example) -gome such astounding and absurd étate- ment as: “They now say that if all y xp ‘trumps before the first lead--they all > play that wey now;” or “s ey say that :it¢ is unsportsmanlike to lead a single- *ton;” or “They sc, you can t double unless you have four *rumps;” or some- thing else equally illegal and absurd. | ‘As a result of this ignorance of the law : (which “excuseth no aan”), the credu- ‘lous unreading player is led to change *about every six days, although the 'Code of 1920 lasted six years and the 11926 Code is expected to remain un- |‘ ‘altered for a longer period. » The Bridge : “also may be divided into halves upon -the question of scoring bonuses for the winning of games.

The rubber game has the additional advantage of permitting a single-table game to be made up of five or six, just as well as of four, players. When playing rubbers, op- portunities constantly arise for using keen skill in bidding because of the fact that the rubber game is worth much more than either of the others; and I am quite sure that those who write to me asking “what is a rubber” or “why do people play rubbers when they can add 125 for game,” will find that the rubber method is much the best for single-table play—if they once try it. As a concluding word, I urge all Bridge players to obtain a copy of the Laws and to follow them. Should any change be made in the 1926 Code (nothing of the sort is now being con- sidered), prompt announcement and explanation will be made in these articles, (Copyright.) Laura Trunnell.

P.).—Air driven clocks that haye given Parisians the wrong time for 40 years, are being electrified. These pneumatic street clocks sel- dom registered alike and are blamed for a large share in giving Paris the reputation of not having any two clocks that tell the same tinfe. The pneumatic clocks, operated by compressed air, stopped working at midnight upon the expiration of a 40- year contract with a private company. Electric mechanisms are ready for them and when cabies are laid in the street the clocks of Paris will be regu- lated from the famous Observatoire which fixes time for France and its colonies. In the old days the approximate time was quite good enough, but louc complaints arose when the world be- gan to hurry and it was found that the clocks were very much out of step with the sun.

The problem of adequately serving the public is essentially one of efficient and carefully trained employes. the real estate profession. This is particularly true of While it is true that momentarily an ecOf>mic condition may influ- ence an upward trend in business, that stable patronage necessary to the continued welfare of any enterprise is produced only by the con- fidence of and consideration for the public. The National Association of Real Estate Boards has for one of its primary objects the establishment of this confidence in its membership n the part of the public, The Washington Real Estate Board has been successful in bringing its membership to a high degree of ethical and professional standing. The Board has long been in the forefront in the matter of education. It has. encouraged among its members and their employes the vital necessity of a thorough knowledge of their profession in order to give the public the benefit of competent and efficient service. The Board’s forums, lectures and various educational classes during the past year were exceedingly well In the Y. M. C. A. classes the opportunity to acquire a greater knowledge of real estate affairs. attended by its members. Board has given to the public an The attendance at these classes has been a further education of the great interest in the realty question by residents of the National Capital. These educational undertakings by the Board and the strict ethical standards of the organization have developed in Washington a group of realtors of unusual competency. This fact is. reflected in the great activity of the local realty market and the great investments by experienced outside financiers in the de- velopments by Washington realtors that have made this city known world wide as a “City of Beautiful Residences.’ REALTOR A realtor is a real estate broker who is a member of a local board having membership in the National Association of Real Estate Boards, an organization incorporated for the advance- ment of the interest of real estate brokers and the protection of the public from the unprincipled agents or brokers. » THE WASHINGTON REAL ESTATE BOARD John F.

One of the outstanding factors in the success of good real estate practice is a thorough appreciation on the part of real estate men and their salesmen for the needs and requirements of their clients. No matter how good the sales- man, or how fine a product, unless there is a proper study made of the desires of a client there will not be a proper return for the amount of energy and effort invested on the part of the realtor. The purchase of a property is a matter of unusual deep concern and study on the part of the prospect. If it is a home it is likely the largest and most outstanding transaction in a man’s life. If it is property it is usually large in comparison with the wealth of the investor. Naturally every client under these circumstances is un- usually particular. One of the most intelligent treaties on “Diagnosing the prospect’s needs,” has been made by John A. VanderWerf, of Grand Rapids, Mich., a member of the National Asso- ciation of Real Estate Boards. In his treatise Mr. VanderWerf points out that modern business, in its march forward, has made a most decided change tn that phase of it called, “the buyer’s side. of the transaction.” The one time slogan, “the public be damned,” has disappeared completely. In its place has come that great word “service,” which means nothing more nor less than human helpfulness, with an object earnestly to do the best thing possible for the customer; and, in any transaction to attend carefully to his needs, his comfort, his happiness, his profit—as well as that of the seller. Service is one of the children born of the golden rule. Its birth has resulted in a greater profit to the seller. To study the needs and viewpoint of the buyer, however, is necessarily more im- portant than ever. To serve a prospect’s needs, you must first “get next” to the prospect, and know what his needs are. A physician may know that you are sick, but he can not prescribe unless he knows what type of medicine you need, and that requires a diagnosis. The real estate customer’s needs are for a certain type of property—not just property. To fully serve the customer—to the profit of buyer, seller and agent—the sales- man must diagnose his prospect’s needs carefully and sympathetically; and he must prescribe to the best of his abil- ity. He has been then, humanely help- ful, and his reward will be the reward of.service. In my opinion, profit is the reward of service. Commissions are the end and service the means. If a man will attend to the ‘means, the end will take care of itself. The greater the service rendered,.the greater will be the reward. Commissions do not come continuously, unless the service prin- ciple is carefully followed. : The real estate client is different in one respect from other clients. He has certain needs that are peculiar to him- self and that must be satisfied by a piece of property to be selected from the hundreds for sale. Every one who wants to buy Rogers silverware, gets the catalogue of Rogers silverware, and chooses a pattern. Every man who goes into a clothing store for an evening jsuit of clothes‘ gets about the same kind of gocds. The difference between prospects, in that case, is in size and the price they wish to pay. Two choices, or specifications, only are necesary. The property buyer, however, whether he be a home prospect or a factory pros- pect, has a multitude of specifications. Those needs, preferences, and choices | are reasonably well-defined, and a care- ful and attentive diagnostician is re- quired to discover his peculiar needs. These needs, let it be said, may be very different from the prospect’s wants, and, as we shall see, the former are the ones to be met in most cases. We should mention in passing that the client who has something to sell in real estate is also a very important one, and his desires must be consider- ed; for it is he who fills the needs of the prospect. Decides for Salesman. The office prospect usually .decides for a salesman the place for the diag- nosis, because one who indicates an interest in buying needs to have some questions put to him at once. If the salesman is on hand when the pros- pect comes in, he can go. through that formality then and there. If not, the one interviewing must be as competent @ diagnostician as the salesman. Even at its best this method is unsatisfac- tory because the salesman frequently must do part of the questioning over again. This causes the buyer needless conversation, is inefficient, and lessens his confidence. : In extreme causes only, should a diagnosis be taken by telephone. The reasons are obvious; lack of personal contact, chances for being cut off, and TOASTMASTER | In the first case they manifest their} their city, by. putting it into real es- tate and home industries, by spread- ing their currency in development pro-_ i Py £ f jor the like. The telephone is useful for making appointments, or for getting names and addresses, but it is not a satisfactory substitute for the contact required in a careful diagnosis. The client who writes a letter can answer your questions reasonably well and satisfy you to a considerable ex- tent, because he must write out his needs. This requires accuracy of thought. There is only one logical place for a diagnosis, and that is the prospect's home, if he is living in one. If the client is a woman, she may sit in a comfortable chair; relax; feel com- posed, and give you, as a visitor, her attention. You, in turn, study her in her home surroundings, from which you will be asked to remove her to more desirable surroundings. You are limited in your study only by your own powers of observation, intuition and judgment. You should be free from interrup- tion, if possible. Perhaps you can pla- cate a noisy youngster with something of interest from your pocket. A bit of praise or appreciation for some ob- ject which she owns that is in evidence in her living room, will. put you on common ground. You can gain confi- dence by acting the part of a perfect gentleman and by showing no signs of forwardness. Should Know People. When you have secured her con- fidence, you.need not hesitate to state frankly that there are some questions you would like to ask, so that you can more intelligently choose proper- ties for her to inspect without needless running around. Most people care lit- tle about extended shopping tours to find. one particular article, and the same is true about house hunting. Before going to the diagnosis, I would like to interject one illustration of a good interviewer. .-Marcosson says of Roosevelt that he personified the fun- damental and essential qualities of a successful interviewer. He made it a point to know every possible thing about the people who came to see him. If he were not already acquainted with their achievements, he fortified himself by special reading and investigation. Authors were amazed at his familiarity with their books; scientists were as- tonished at his understanding of their researches; naturalists were impressed with the range of his experience; in- vestors stood agape at his technical comprehension of their work. The net result was that they succumbed; first, to his magnetic personality, and second, being human and therefore susceptible, to his knowledge of themselves or their friends. He was a great salesman. When the name of Walter H. Page, then editor of the World's Work was mentioned by Marcosson, Roosevelt’s commenf was, “I hear excellent reports of Mr. Page’s two sons at Harvard.” In telling it, Mr. Marcosson said, “It was a mystery to me how he knew of the boy’s records in college, but it pleased Mr. Page to know of the President’s interest.” Observations That Are Needed. The real estate salesman will at times during his negotiations with a prospect probably have occasion to refer to the interest of the prospect, if he has studied him in his home surroundings. Here are some observations he should make: 1. How does he act? Will he take a lot of time to reach a decision to buy, or not? If he is the slow kind, give him time for reflection and. don’t give him the idea you will rush him into a decision. The decisive man only requires rapid-fire action and he should be dealt with accordingly. 2. Has he hobbies and interests? Don’t forget them. If it’s dogs, find a big yard and, at the time of show- ing, say, “Isn’t this a wonderful place for dogs to run about?” If he has quaint furniture, refer to it and say, “See how this home provides an at- mosphere for antiques, é&c.” . 3. What are his likes and dislikes? A prospect told one of our salesmen one day that she would under no cir- cumstances live near Catholics or Hol- landers. It happened that the salesman was a Catholic and the writer a Hol- lander, and later after a hearty laugh over the matter, we set out to find her a home in an American and Protestant neighborhood. Keep in mind her likes and refer to them in her presence. Your complimenting her by remem- bering her likes carries a good deal of weight in gaining her confidence. 4. What of his social life? Is the daughter being introduced to society? Then remember the mother’s interest and suggest that the house so and s0 will ‘be one in which the debutante will be delighted to entertain her many friends and that the dining room seats 40 people, and so on. 5. How about his financial standing? Does the present house and grounds need repair? Perhaps your client needs ka cheaper home but won’t admit it. Is the husband a rising young busi- | mess man? If so, you can gauge some- j what his earnings and therefore how | much he can put into a home. - 6. How are his friends? Does the prospect mention Mrs. : Brown, who is |a banker’s wife? You can get & clue. 7. Who is the boss—husband or wife? Sell the boss. , 8. Is the 9.

What about proximity to schools, churches, and other institutions? (An active lodge man or church man, will wish to give these consideration.) Underscore Big Points. Underscore those points which are very important to the client. I have not elaborated on the particu- lar use of each of these questions, but a salesman who has had even six months of experience will recognize at a glance the need for each one. Some questions may be entirely irrelevant to some cases. But, how do you know what situations are going to arise, in the course of negotiations? And, how do you know when a suggestion regard- ing a prospect’s interests may swing the deciding vote to your house instead of to that of another salesman? You should state the extreme diffi- culty in matching his needs exactly, and then you can always refer to that statement. when minor objections arise. You should also, after making an ap- pointment be’ prepared to show the prospect homes long before the ap- pointment, if possible. This will allow for interferences. Perhaps in the case of the speculator, these details will not be quite so im- portant. But for the home buyer a salesman needs to be deeply concerned with finding the right home for his prospect. It is a matter of considerable anxiety with the buyer, and the same solicitude is expected of the salesman. How shall you find it?

Washington realtors have been un- usually honored by the real «state men of the United States and Canada in the selection of four local men as dele- gates to represent the National Associ- ation of Real Estate Boards at the an- nual meeting of the Chamber of Com- merce of the United States. : The national association which repre- sents about 700 real estete boards in this country and Canada in as many cities and towns is perhaps the largest professional organization in the coun- try and the selection of John L. Weaver, past president «f the local board and national association; B. F. Saul, promi- nent local real estate man and out- standing member of the American Bankers association; J. C. Weedon, past president of the local board, and John A. Petty, former executive. secretary of the local board, is an unusual compli- ment to the National Capital. The annual meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of the Tinited States, which takes place May 3, 4 and 5, is a gathering which is representative of virtually every large business associa- tion and trade organization in the country, and may be said to be repre- sentative of the thought and trend of the entire business and professional life of the country. A. J. Kelly, jr., of Pittsburgh, mem- ber of the board of directors of the National Association of Real Estate Boards, has been nominated as a direc- tor in the chamber and the _ local delegates will actively support his candidacy. It is expected by reason of the fact that the entire National As- sociation of Real Estate Boards is rep- resented by local delegates that the four Washingtonians will probably come into unusual outstanding promi- nence in the deliberations at the cham- ber’s annual meeting. All of the delegates are outstanding Washingtonians and it is expected that the National Capital’s prestige will be greatly enhanced by the fact that four of its citizens represent an interna- tional . organization. Several thousand prominent business men from all parts of the country will attend the meeting in May which will be addressed on the first day by the President of the United States. The deliberations of this gathering has an influence on the economic life of the country; particularly in regard to the government’s attitude in respect to business and the prosperity of the na- tional and international economic con- ditions affecting America. The appointment of the four Wash- ingtonians has aroused considerable in- terest in local business circles and is considered as a recognition of the high standing that the Washington Real Es- tate. board has in the national associa- tion. ..° ; ; 3 ‘| Give Credit to Doer, IMPROVED METHODS TO BE INTRODUCED INRECORDING DEEDS Office Is Placed on Appro- priation Basis by Act of Congress. REALTY OWNERS URGED TO GET CONVEYANCES Holding of Originals Is Said to Reduce the Danger of Their Destruction. The, Congress of the United States has now become deeply interested in the question of the recorder of deeds office in the District of Columbia, as is evidenced by the action of the last Congress in passing an act which places this office on an appropriation basis after July 1, 1927. ; The Washington Real Estate, board has been particularly active Im en- deavoring to bring about a betterment of conditions with respect to tliat of- fice, advocating a new building; and more modern methods so that the dan- ger of disaster to the tens of thou- sands of unregistered records and legal evidences of title may be abolished. Less than a year ago the Washington Real Estate board undertook a nation- wide survey which showed that Wash- ington was seriously deficient in the care of its valuable papers affecting properties and. important financial transactions. The board at that time showed the difference in thé efficient way other cities handled this problem and the manner in which Washington has been handling this problem. The act passed by the last Congress requires that all fees received by the recorder of deeds, without deductions of any kind, be deposited-in the United States Treasury to the credit of the District of Columbia and that the work of the office be carried on by appropri- ation. The Washington Real Estate board and members of the board were called into consultation by the bureau of efficiency, which has made a thor- ough study of the situation. Would Speed Up Work. The most encouraging change through recommendations of the bu- reau of efficiency and others will be the possibility of all original instru- ments being returned to the owners in six days after filing for entry. Before the survey of the Washington Real Estate board it showed that one year to eighteen months was required to get the return of the original instruments. It is stressed, however, that there are now on hand in the office something like 100,000 original documents that heve been recorded and not called for by owners. The owners are urged to call for their deeds as space is urgently needed by th» recorder, and the necessity of the owner of property having them in his possession is apparent on the face. It is pointed out that if they have mis- laid or lost their receipts they can es- tablish their identity to get their deeds, trusts or releases by simply signing a receipt book for the same. It is the hope of the recorder that all arrearages in the work of the offices will be brought up to date by the end of De- .cember. Shortly after the passage of this act the chairman of he House commit- tee on appropriations and the chairman of the House committee on the District of Columbia jointly requested the United States bureau of efficiency to make a survey of the office of the recorder of deeds with a view to sug- gesting to the Congress how much money should be appropriated for the maintenance of the office during the fiscal year 1928, and to make recom- mendations relative to such changes in administrative procedure, in office methods, and in existing law as would place this office on a basis compar- able with well-managed offices per- forming like services in other cities. The purpose of this study was to place the office on a footing that would furnish the most efficient service to the taxpayers of the District at the lowest possible cost. ‘Other Systems Studied. The bureau of effficiency not only studied the work and procedure of the. office of the recorder of deeds of the District, but investigators of the bureau visited Chicago, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore and studied the system of recording land records in those cities. “ @ result of its studies of the work of the local office as well as the work of the offices in the cities above men- tioned, the bureau of efficiency sub- mitted a number of recommendations looking to the improvement of and fa- cilitating the work of the recorder’s office. (The most important of the recommendations is that the loose-leaf printed form method of recording be ] adopted. This method of recording is used by recorders of deeds all over the country. ‘. The adoption of this method of re- cording will not only simplify the work of the office, but it will make for greater accuracy in the recording of all instruments affecting title to real property. It will save the writing of from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000 words a year: In other words, the recorder contemplates doing the same thing that the conveyancer is now doing in ‘a large part of the work will yer other firms in other cities similar findings. Sales Managers RECLUSE BLL ENS TO CUT TIME T0 THREE MONTHS Michigan Real Estate Board Approves Measure Now Before Legislature. OTHERS BEING DRAFTED. RELATING TO MORTGAGE Missouri Plans Seek Safer Statutory Regulations in Handling Deeds. Shortening the period of time in mortgage foreclosure to three months would be provided for Michigan under a bill which is before the Michigan legislature. The Michigan K:al Estate association has approved the measure in principle. Three other measures relating to the foreclosure of mortgages are now be- ing drafted by a special committee of the Michigan association. : Four bills introduced simultaneously in both houses of the Missouri general assembly for the purpose of making safer statutory regulations for the handling of deeds of trust and mort- gages in that State have been approved by the judiciary committee of the house of representatives. These measures have the support of the St. Louis Real Estate Exchange and of the Kansas City (Mo.) Real Estate board. To Prevent Issuance. The first measure calculates to pre« vent the issuance of fraudulent docue ments, and provides that when any mortgage or deed of trust or other in- strument intended to create a lien on real estate td secure the payment of a debt or obligation evidenced by an instrument or instruments in: writing shall be filed for record the instrument or instruments representing the prin- cipal may be presented to the recorder of deeds at the time of such filing for record. and the recorder shall stamp or write upon each such instrument an identification thereof. The second -bill is intended to gove the matter of partial releases of deeds of trust so that persons interested can accurately determine what portions of the security have been released. The third bill is a result of effort to make certain the regularity of fore- closure proceedings. This bill provides for the production of deeds of trust and mortgages and unpaid principal notes before permitting the recording of trustees’ deeds or mortgagee’s deeds in foreclosure. Before Missouri Body. A bill to create a budget’ commis. sioner for the State of Missouri and to consolidate the’ 123 existing State boards and commissions into nine de- partments is before the Missouri general assembly. The bill was offered by the Missouri Association for Economy in Public Expenditures after an investiga- tion which had shown that the cost of State government had increased twelvefold from the 1900 figure. ; Over 60 bills affecting real estate are being studied by the Wisconsin Assos ciation of Real Estate Brokers. A digest of the 60 bills with such recommenda- tion as the association is making upon them has been sent to its entire mem- bership by its legislative committee. The Camden (N. J.) Real Estate boaré is advocating legislation that would permit building and loan associations in New Jersey to accept second moft- gages. It is also asking for changes ig the foreclosure act of the State. Classification of the Ohio statutes as to assignment and release of mort» gages is the purpose of a bill which has passed both houses of the legisla- ture and is now before the governor for his signature. Cost of Apartment Operations Studied What is the cost of operating ap apartment building? The National Association of Real Estate Boards ig asking the question in an inquiry sent out to members of its property man- agement division. The property man- agement division is asking every meme ber to contribute his own experience table as to the cost of such items as taxes, vacancies, repairs, insurance; light, janitor service, management, heating and depreciation. A_ typical experience table already contributed holds that in Philadelphia so thore oughly has actual practice followed the allocation cost laid out by experienced property management offices that in¢ vestors of apartment houses in the city have come to accept an apartment house as a good purchase at a cost equal to the gross rentals capitalized at_the rate of 14.28 per cent. It will be the purpose of the inq to find out how far the experience will furnish To Meet Tuesday The sales ers division of Washingion Rea!

Winfield Preston ‘announces the sale -of 21 Homes and one plot of 6 acres of pean for about $250,000 during the rst 23 days of March. “We find that what is known as ‘sales resistance’ has increased greatly in the ‘last few years,” Mr. Preston said. “Peo- ple have grown away from the habit of buying the first house they see. They want to ‘shop’ a bit before’ investing. They are learhing more about construc- tion, too, and the average buyer. goes ‘over a home very carefully, inspecting every phase of work done by the build- ‘er before signing a contract. “Our method of combating this ‘re- sistance,’ which we have found most successful, is ‘to try hard to give the prospective buyer a dollar’s worth of construction for every dollar invested, retaining, of course, a legitimate profit for our work. Our salesmen are in- structed to explain the construction of any property offered for sale by this office to any prospective buyer, and this method has resulted most satisfactorily from a sales standpoint.” The property sold by the Preston of- fice included: No. 1357 Ives place southeast to Mrs. Edna M.

-HENVER MANS WINNER OF ANGHITECTURE AWARD First Mention in Le Brun Trav- - @ling Scholarship Test to Detroit Entrant. MAUSOLEUM IS SUBJECT Harl C. Norris, of Denver, Colo., is the winner of the 1927 Le Brun travel- img scholarship competition, a major award in United States architecture, it ig announced by Otto R. Eggers, chair- man of the Le Brun scholarship com- ittee of the New York chapter of the can Institute of Architects. wo ee ee ee oe ee First mention was awarded to W. Ray Winegar, of Detroit. Becond mention went to Emil W. EKlee,:New. York; third} mention to Martin Beck, Astoria, L. I., and fourth mention to Henry A. Cook, New. York. Maurice Gauthier, Brooklyn, and Albert W. Butt, jr.. New York, were specially commended. The subject of this year’s compett- tion, entered by architects in many ‘parts of the country, was “A Com- munity Mausoleum.” The scholarship, valued at $1,400, was founded in 1910 by Pierre L. Le Brun, architect of the Metropolitan tower, in memory of his brother. The beneficiary will spend six months in study abroad. There will be an exhibition of all the drawings submitted for three days be- ginning Saturday, March 26, in the room of the. Architectural league, 215 West Fifty-seventh street. The com- mittee’s a uncement “commends the almost uniform standard | of excellence shown.” The judges, all members of the New York chapter of the American Insti- tute of Architects, were Edgerton Swartwout, Clarence Levi,.and. Richard Dana, jr. SMALL HOUSE OF STONE - = i) CS | \ \\) = =e ES we ane One of the hardest things to ask an architect’ to design is a really smal! house which will be thoroughly satis- factory in both its design and its ap- pointments. The house shown today is such an one. Its exterior design follows with an unusual degree of accuracy the early farm houses of Pennsylvania, whence came the inspiration for its design. White clapboarding, porches, shutters and window trim contrast pleasingly with the rough textured ledge stone of which the greater part of its walls is constructed. Dormer windows on both the front and rear facade allow the second floor to obtain necessary light and air without making the exterior walls rise perpendicularly to too great a height. The floor plans are of a compact- ness necessary in so small a house, yet a surprisingly large. number of rooms have been obtained. The first floor consists of a large living room, a din- ing room.and kitchen,-in addition to an entrance hall. An inclosed stair- way at one side of the kitchen rises to the second story. On the second floor we have three «bedrooms, a bath and a sleeping porch. Each bedroom has a large closet. Due: to the fact that the chimney is located in the center of the resi- dence, the architect was enabled to provide three fireplaces; one for the living room, another for the dining room and one in a.bedroom on the second floor. R. Brognard Okie was the architect of this house. ce ee ‘ se he WN oe The genuis of the Orient has given us some of gur most lovely flower possessions and greatest horticultural secrets,. for there- seems to be some- thing in the mind and manners of the Par East that encourages painstaking experimentation in the world of plants. Perhaps it. is a matter of ingenuity, ‘of a national tendency to intensive work,. of a ‘genuine feeling for the | floral kingdom—or of all three com- bined. In any event, we of the West reap the benefit. One of the plant novelties now avail- able to us ih shops spec in orientalities is pictured here. It is commonly: called Chinese Everlasting, and needs only a bowl of fresh water for sustenance. As usually found each | stalk carries from one to four leaves, which are replaced by new ones as fast as they wither. Often one of these plants. will grow indoors. for several years, even in a room where sunlight seldom enters. (Copyright, 1927, by House and Garden.) Marriage Book Urged For German Students Berlin, March 26 (By A. P.).—A plan to present graduates of public schools in Germany with a book on marriage is being urged upon the minister of edu- cation by a number of educators. : The book proposed is Heinrich Pesta- ‘| lozzi’s long famous story “Lienhard and Gertrude, a Story for the People.” False ideas on love, marriage and re- lationship: between the sexes, it is ar- gued, occasion much unhappiness un- less the. youth is properly instructed. At present each. graduate is given a copy of the Weimar constitution, while Lutheran and Catholic clergymen give newlyweds a leather bound Bible. Girls in.

ILANDS BELIEVED. ONCE COVERED WITH WOODS Denuded Ages Ago, Scientists Believe, by a Series of Conflagrations. al The great Western prairies, usually Yetrangers to any form of tree, exce a along river bahks, will have trees all available spaces, if the United States forest service is successful with that are now being formulated. Legends pe ve section, it is pointed out, was not always barren of trees. Foreat service experts declare that the prairies are an unnatural state without trees, for such productive soil, so highly flexible in its capacity for nourishing plant life, is conducive to the growth of trees. The earliest theory was that the prairies were once vast forests and that the trees were destroyeil in a confla- gration, that swept over nearly one- fourth of the United States, leaving it an ashen waste. New Theory Explained. This, however, has been discarded by science. The theory now advanced, and generally accepted, is that the trees of the prairies were destroyed by recurrent fires. Expérience has proved that forests will easily survive one fire but will seldom survive three. The fires were started by Indians and by lightning untold centuries ago, according to the theory. Each fire de- stroyed a number of trees. The hard- woods were the last to go, but each successive fire licked a little deeper the old scars in their trunks, and at last they died. According to E. N. Munns, in charge of forest experiment stations in the forest service, pieces of stumps have been found far underground on prairie land. The wood thus found was in process of petrification, he said, and the age could not be determined. Realizing, therefore, the former ex- istence of trees on the prairies, the for- est service will establish an experiment station somewhere in the prairie sec- tion this summer. Experts will be serit from Washington in June to make a study of the prairie States, and will decide upon a location for the station. The plan is to plant trees on eroded lands, and for windbreak purposes and for shelter. Trees are the protectors be to plant the trees where this protec- (CONTINUED ON PAGE 7, COLUMN 3.) lisiesieenteninanieetnaianbeanitniaiebaedientaeenaanimemenimeeenreeen nedenea le ET $30 ’ Per Month CARPENTERS’ BUILDING 10th and K Sts.

That thought was the control- ing factor in the development belongs to a type occasionally found in south Jersey, where the front facade goes up straight and the rear is cov- ered with a long sweeping roof. gives the house a high profile that sets it apart from the general run of what we think of as Dutch colonial. Shal- low dormers continue on the general line of the front facade. Such a de- sign is economical for the small house in that one gets a dwelling that has architectura! distinction and at the same time affords adequate head room on the second story. The material used for the walls and roof is shingles, the former either paint- This ed white with the roof shingles stained moss green, or the whole left to weather to a silvery gray after the manner of the Cape Cod cottages. Several other departures from the usual Dutch Colonial design are to be found in this house: The entrance is on the narrow end that faces the road; there is a ‘"indow at one end of the living room with a roof reminiscent of the English regency style; the garage, though separate, is tied to the house by a lattice wall broken by a gate, so the house and garage really make a unit, with a drying yard outside the kitchen door. The plans show an ingenious distri- bution of space. The living room oc- cupies practically half the lower floor, with the hall and kitchen behind. There is no dining room, since the bay win- dow end of the living room is used for that purpose. Stairs go up from the hall to the second floor, where are two bedrooms, a bath and a small store room. It is really a very small house, designed to be run without servants, or with one maid-—a bride and groom sort of cottage in which to start mar- ried life. Addison F. Worthington, architect.

Owners One-Thousand-One Fifteenth Street at K district where the prospect wishes to locate. Search the files. Investigate the dead files as well as the live ones. Recall former properties for sale. Ask the other salesmen. Search the loca- tions in which the buyer is interested. Next, study these homes which are generally possible from the following standpoints, and note that, there is an alphabetical arrangement which. will help one to memorize it: Age, beauty, convenience, distance to places, envir- onment, financial encumbrances, gar- dening, heating plant, institutions (schools, lodges; libraries, parks, re- sorts), joinery (of structure), kirk, (church), lines of transportation, meas- urement of rooms, neighbors, occu- pants (former), possibility of enhance- ment, traffic streets, resale values, structure, taxes, up-to-dateness, view, what standing will house give? Extra features, yard, zoning. Items Determine Houses. The items which your prospect men- tioned as being important will de- termine the proper houses to show from your list. Choose one or two desirable for the prospect to own. With these in mind, you can perhaps point out how this property meets the re- quirements as specified. Be liberal in the showing of houses. Remember that impressions through the eye are twen- ty times as strong as through the ear. Therefore, talk less and show more. If it looks impossible té find a suit- able home, consult a contractor and build one to suit. The contractor will be delighted to work with you on the proposition. In spite of all that a salesman can do to diagnose a case properly he fre- quently finds that the diagnosis does not work. There may be three reasons for this: First, a prospect did not originally know what she wanted—she merely imagined features, as questions were put to her; secondly, the showing process may have altered her plans; new ideas may have crept in and her desires altered accordingly; thirdly, a prospect may be “eye-minded,” as psychologists put it, and must show by an actual sample what she wants to’ explain. The solution then is to diagnose again—this time correctly— and dipply new remedies. No mention has here been made of ¢ the commercial or industrial prospects, or those for other types of property. Needless to say, the same principles apply. The secret of an effective diagnosis like the secret of successfut selling of which it is a part, is the ability of the salesman to analyze, his ability to gain confidence, and his willingness to serve. Put yourself in the client’s place. Make his problem yours. Your doing so lends confidence to the buy- er. To diagnose with ease sharpens your powers of observation, and in- creases your knowledge of your pros- pect. Study the service principle. It is the basis for building a large clientele. Be sincerely and deeply concerned with the prospect’s welfare. This must be cultivated, and no salesman is success- ful in the true sense of the word with- out it. A proper diagnosis turns shoppers into buyers; brings decision out of in- decision; saves the salesman’s time; saves the prospect’s time; begets con- fidence on the part of the salesman and his firm; increases the salesman’s service-rendering capacity to the point where he fills his coffers, and that of ‘ . : Sixteenth Street!

Cape Town is one of the oldest | cities south of the line, and: chance | diggers have made strange finds in the old quarters of the town where slaves | |from the East once lived. There was the startling discovery of the skeleton of a manacled slave near Gallows Hill, where executions were’ carried out in public up to the. middle of the last century. Many other skdletons of slaves saw the light when the former supreme court, at the top of Cape Town’s main street, was reconstructed recently. Castle and Mansion Connected. On the outskirts of Cape Town is a |solid stone castle built by the Dutch | East India Co.. About a mile away is a | in, | |fine old Dutch mansion—a stately house with teak doorways and fanlights, cool wine cellars and. storerooms. Carpen- ters who broke down a “blind” door some years ago found themselves in a dark passage. They could not pene- trate very far, for the tunnel had fallen but at the castle there is an en- ‘trance to a secret passage which - is thought to connect the old stronghold | with the Dutch mansion. | | There are many other secret pas- sages in Cape Town, all going back to the days when Hottentot slaves broke loose, banded themselves together and looted lonely houses. Much bullion and old plate must have been buried on the outskirts of the town when slave raids threatened, and much of it must be there to this day. Modern diving apparatus has made possible the recovery of rich cargoes from the galleons which were wrecked hundreds of years ago in Table bay. A ship’s bell, recovered some years ago, bore the inscription “John Vtber 1690.” From the Dutch East India Co.’s ship Jong Thomas have come scraps of rare china, old Dutch coins known as “spaansheinatte,” and Oriental curios. There is’ strong reason to believe that South Africa was visited by small craft from the east years before the voyages of Diaz and Vasco da Gama. Two years ago a 60-foot boat was dug up near the shore of Table bay. It For Jobless Actors Berlin, March 26 (Bv A. P.).—A home for jobless actors and actresses has been opened in Berlin with the as- sistance of business men and stage stars. Luncheons will be served for a nominal charge of from 6 to 10 cents in a dining room seating 50 persons. Two other rooms have been set, aside as reading and writing parlors, and an employment office will be opened. There are as yet no dormitories. More than 700 professional actors are out of work in Berlin. The home is under the management of Frau Anna von Palen, who has been on the stage for many years. French Doctor Says Sun Spots Are Fatal Paris, March 26 (By A. P.)—Sun spots double the number of sudden deaths, in the opinion of Dr. Maurice Faure, eminent surgeon. His evidence, he told the Academy of Medicine at its last session, indicates clearly to him that the black spots on |} the sun upset the nervous or physical | equilibrium of weakened humans just | as they are believed to upset atmos- | pheric equilibrium, causing storms. Dr. Faure presented statistics to SUP- | port his contention. Not only does he charge deaths to the | sun spots, but he blames on them the vast increase in crises of those ill with chronic maladies, during the appear- ance of the spots.

The rivers and streams of the prairie section, Mr. Munns points out, are edged with trees. This is evidence that the fires were checked at these moist areas, or at least did not kill the trees. However, the great fires jumped the Mississippi river, accord- ing to indications. Such an occur- rence would not be unusual, for forest fires have been known to jump three- fourths of a mile. Direction of Wind a Factor. There are two factors, Mr. Munns ex- plains, which, according to the theory, were largely responsible for the outline of the prairies—winds and snows. The prevailing direction of the wind is eastward, and for that reason the for- ests were driven: eastward by the com- bined agencies of wind and fire. The map shows that the prairies form an enormous’ wedge in the sectidn north of the Ohio river. Illinois perhaps never would have had prairies but for the eastward direction of the wind. On the west the prairies are stopped sharply at the foothills of the Rockies. Mr. Munns explains that the snow melted from tke lower section just east of the foothills before it melted from the higher section, enabling fires to be started in the lower section earlier. It is these early spring fires, he said, that are most destructive.

MAY MEAN EXTENSIVE CHANGE IN ECONOMICS Each Side Predicts Victory, but Observers Expect Drawn Battle. (Special Cable Dispatch.) Vienna, March 26.—Normally the} legislative period of the present Aus- trian parliament should last until autumn, 1927, but for tactical reasons it has been decided to hold general elections in spring, either toward the end of April or in the middle of May. Democracy in’ Austria is a compara- tively young institution without~ tra- dition, and this, together with the deep-rooted antagonisms between the nonsocialist government bloc and the socialist opposition, created a political }atmosphere in which parliaments wear out quicker than they are supposed to in the constitution. Although Austria has more than two parties, one can speak of a two-party system in this country, for the non- socialist parties are massed in one bloc and the communists on the red side of the political front do not count, since they have never been able to get one single mandate. The nonsocialist bloc consists of the Catholic “christian- social” party with clerical tendencies, which counts 82 members; the German nationalist party, with only 10 mem- bers, and the farmers’ party, with 5 members. Socialists in Minority. Thus 97 deputies, who form the gov- ernmental majority, are confronted by 68 socialists, with rather radical ten- dencies, whose political influence is strong enough to prevent important measures considered to be against the interests of the socialist workers. The red Opposition has organized an ama- teur army called the “Republikanischer Schutzbund,” which is systematically drilled and partly armed. It is frequently marched through the streets of Vienna and the provincial towns when the socialists wish to dem- onstrate to the nonsocialist citizens and politicians that it would be futile to risk political changes of fundamen- tal importance. As there are also smaller amateur armies on the other side the situation would be critical if the Austrians were not so good-natured and easy-going. As it is, it rarely happens that a pistol or rifle goes off and injures or kills some- body. Test for the Reds. The elections are this time expected with unusual interest, for they are to be a test between the reds and other forces, which will be mobilized to the last man or woman. At present the strength of the two antagonistic camps is about even, for the nonsocialist ma- jority in parliament is held in check by the greater influence of the so- cialists on the broad masses of the peo- i ple in Vienna and the other cities, and while the nonsocialist block governs Just as most of us consider it im- portant to our satisfaction of mind that ‘we have*a well-designed house to live ‘in and not an enla 'fair, so we should feel about having all soap-boxey af- the different accessories and. appur- tenances of the home in keeping with 2 PNAS Be ES AER ON oO GS ww mE te ms by means of taxes, which are some- i times veiled levies from the capital. the scale of the house and, most of all, in good taste.

For a door knocker, even if we only use it as a ~_—_ > ere - - decoration, one of the three shown above must, I am surg, appeal to your fancy. The knocker in the left-hand corner is suitable for a lodge in the woods or a count ottage.

(Copyright, 1927.) over Vienna and other municipalities. This has lé¢d to many contradictory currents in Austrian politics, for, while the federal government sticks to cap- italist traditions, the red government of Vienna comes sometimes very near a mild form of. bolshevist dictatorship and shows a marked tendency to municipalize everything, including the real estate, that is to say, the houses and the ground on which they are built.. A far-going system of local autonomy prevents the government of the republic from interfering with the city and vetoing them. The city of Vienna has acquired a practical monopoly of house building, and it pays all its productive invest- ments and technical and other im- provements out of the current revenues The red rulers of the municipality take away the money for public utili- ties from the wealthy bourgeois, and 2& present there is nobody to stop them. Inspired by Moscow. It is only just to say that on the whole the socialists have made a very conscientious use of the taxes and achieved a lot of laudable things. But their tendencies are inspired by Mos- cow ideals, and the industrialists and business people complain that this method is bound to ruin them in the long run. . Thus the next election will culmin- ate in an effort of both camps to make the voters choose between capitalism and socialism in economic life and be- tween a conservatively-tempered de- mocracy and red ideals in internal poli- tics. The issue is one of fundamental principles, comprising the entirety of economic, cultural and social life, and optimists on both sides believe that their people will carry the victory. More sober observers are of the opin- ion that the election battle again will end with a draw and that the eventual changes in the distribution of mandates will be small. The voting will not be confined to the federal parliament, but also will decide the future of the pro- vincial diets, including the municipal and council of Vienna.

The “planting” of the herd, as it is. called,. was effected by the: forest service in cooperation with the biologi- cal survey, . The elk were taken to the game pre- serve, a distance of 40 miles from the railroad, in trucks, The occasion was of considerable moment to the inhabitants of the section. Preliminary to the bring- ing of the herd, a conference was held with the farmers, and they were warned that the elk, deprived of their food supply by the winter snows, might cause them some damage. However, no oppo- sition was voiced. Hunting permits, they were told, would be issued tn the course of a few years when the herd became well established and afforded a surplus. The elk, it was reported, were very reluctant toward leaving the trucks. They had to be dragged out with ropes. Finding themselves free, however, they set out at a run and quickly disap- peared in the mazes of the hills. The elk were starved out of this re- gion by cattle, whose grazing left them no food supply. The last elk reported seen in the section was in 1898, How- ever, 20 years before hunters brought them out of the forest in wagonloads.

NWISE. ACTIVITIES N BUILDING SHOWN IN NEW YORK AREAS { Louis “Tishman, However, Does Not Believe Metrop- olis Is Overbuilt, MANY LACK JUDGMENT ON PROPER LOCATIONS. Construction Often Goes On Ignoring Industry’s Future Capacity, He Says. The quéstion as to whether York is overbuilt or even unwisely Dullt im both its residential and business bulldings is a lively topic of discua- sion among real estate men. Many expressions of opinion are forthcoming from men active in the financial and building fields as to. the soundness of or the necessity for the warnings Is- sued by leading financia: authorities. Louls Tishman, of Julius Tishman’ & Sons, Inc., in commenting upon exist- ing conditions, is quoted as saying: “Naturally, every real estate man has given due consideration and weight to the viewa of these financial authorities. Personally, I have not been entirely willing to accept without reservation the judgment of the writers referred to. In my opinion, the condition warf- ed against is not due to any general overbullding but rather may be at- tributed to a tendency to unwise build- ing in certain sections. “My interpretation of the present building situation in Manhattan is that the conditions against which we are warned are due principally to a lack of | judgment as to where t> bulld, rather) than to overbuilding in general. To me, the shortness of vision that has led marily men with capital to follow sheep-wise some: bell-wether who has beaten a trail into some section of Manhattan where his perspicasity and ability to forecast the future require- ments, as well as an immediate need for new construction, is amazing. These ‘followers’ fall to realize all too often that the pioneer builder stays in a section only long note to realize its approximate possibilitie and then directs his ¢nergies and his capital to some other section. Many Lack Experience. “But the ‘followers’ go gayly in with thely money and their enthusiasm and thelr plans, and they build, and keep on building long after the experienced bullder has analyzed and demonstrated in actual construction just how much floor space logically could be absorbed; and that when he had reached that point he naturally turned his attention to some other section.' But the ‘fol- lower,’ lacking the oxperience and knowledge of the law of supply and demand, has a tendency and inclina- tion to remain ‘too long in a given sec- tleon. Too late, they discover that they have put up buildings for which there ia no immediate need; and which ex- perience of the right sort would have shown them for which there could be nq need for a long time to come. , “The investor’ and: builder in Man- hattan real estate who has the equip- ment of experience gid 9 knowledge of the tendencies of moréments in vari- ous trades and residential trends, sel- fom is swept off his feet by a ‘gold rush’ to some section. He is more then likely to do a lot of looking before he leaps. He is more than likely ta do a lot of invéstigation, studying and assaying befere he puts in his capital and his energy {n construction in @ section that. has been under the spur and stimulas-of elaborate build- ving for a prolonged period. “Nine times out of ten, the tendency (a everbulld in any one section can be traced: right back to the activities of men who are not familiar with the real estate business, and especially the re- quirements and possibilities of Man- hattan. At best their real estate know!l- edge is superficial; too often it is based on ‘information and belief.’ They may be, and undoubtedly often are, man who are strikingly successful in bther fields of business and profes- sional activity. These men with vis- ions of untold millions of dollars in real estate, too often leave their own businesses to plunge into the mael- strom of Manhattan real estate, armed only with enthusiasm and energy and capital.

Seitee: located in Woodside Park, Md., combines beauty with possession of capital, and in many in- stances, even lack sufficient capital. A study of neighborhoods, of districts that can become, or have hecome, recognized and logical centers for icular spe- clalized industries, will show more often than not that any excess construction that may exist is due to the erection of buildings beyond the present or im- mediate future capacity of the particu- lar industry for which the buildings were erected to absorb. So it happens that unneeded, unnecessary buildings go up, millions of dollars. are invested in them, and then they stand lacking tenants, monuments to unwise invest- ment, and failing to produce the reve- nue the expectant owners looked for. “In saying this I do so, not with any idea of critical comment on the activi- ties of those who are attracted to the potential possibilities of real estate in- vestments. My whole idea rather is to refute the.cry of “wolf” that has been raised in the warnings that have been given us by prominent men who have taken a keen interest in a condition that justifies the importance with which they have it, but which, frankly, I feel they are looking at rather astig- | matically. Certainly there is no field of |investment sounder than Manhattan real estate. No man can measure the ssibilities of proper investments in his, the greatest city in the world. “Undoubtedly. these warnings of which I speak are justified; probably it is necessary to paint the canvas as black as possible in order to make the warning gink in, but I would go further than recent commentators on the con- ditions that exist in Manhattan build- ing construction. I would agree with them in part, but I would analyze the situation more definitely and find out whether, the impression of overbuyilding |is true as applied to Manhattan as a |whole, or true only as applied to a comparatively few districts where en- thusiasm has run away with discretion, or where a lack of exact knowledge and sound experience has resulted or threat- ens to result in a state of overproduc- tion. Section Not Overbuilt. “Certainly no man can say with au- thority that the Park avenue section is overbuilt. This great residentia) sec- tion is. becoming as well known throughout the world as its famous older sister section, Fifth avenue. But while Fifth avenue is in a state of flux, with business projecting its marts right up to Central park, and with the fa- mous homes of. the last generations giving way. to multifioor apartment buildings, it is to the Park avenue sec- tion that our well-known families of prestige and position and. importance are turning in ever-increasing numbers. “It would be difficult to conceive of business rearing its head along this glorious avenue and the cross streets of this Park avenue section. When the demands of business life of Manhattan swept away the old and familiar pri- vate residences on Fifth avenue and Madison avenue and the hitherto exclu- sive residential cross streets below Fifty- ninth street, it was to Park avenue that the eyes of the hundreds of families turned. “From the west side of Manhattan the Park avenue section likewise drew newcomers who were looking for the greater convenience and assured social and character stability of the avenue. All this demand meant, more and more high-grade apartment building con- struction. The operations of our own organization during these days of change and establishment of Park ave- nue as the preferred residential section of Manhattan were inclusive. Two Apertment Sites. “Park avenue overbuilt? Frankly, I can not conceive of any basis on which thiis might be true. It takes only a trip the length of the avenue from Forty- fifth street northward to realize that, with the exception of a few remaining residenees that literally may be count- ed on one’s fingers, there remain no available sites for apartment buildings. That these few remaining private resi- Silver Spring Building Sup ply Co., Inc. ™” derfces do remain is an interesting com- mentary on the growth of Park avenue. You may well why these remained, if the demand for Park evenuc space is so urgent and so definite. “The explanation is simple to the man in the real estate business. They remain as emblems of sentiment or be- cause of some other entirely wunder- standable and human quirk. Their owners do not and will not part with them during their lifetime, because of association or family ties, or, as in one or two cases, because of deeply rooted disinclination to move away frem the place that has been home for genera- tions. And until these reasons have been overcome by time, these few resi- dential spots will remain as landmarks om an avenue of splendid apartment buildings. Park avenue, as it stands to- day, can not be overbuilt. “There can be no saturation point reached in construction among its broad sweep as long as Manhattan is what it is, as long as discerning people have the desire and the means to make their homes along Park avenue where the supply of available apartments is necessarily limited. Each Has Center, “Now let us consider an cntirely dif- ferent sort of Manhattan section or d‘strict. Practically e¥ery one knows that there fs a silk center, a garment ce.ter, a millinery center; every spe- clalized industry of any size has its well-defined district or neighborhood, where its individual manufacturers and wholesalers settle fox.greater conven- ience in the conduct of their business— a center to which the buyers from the four corners of America come to take back to the 110,000,000 of our popula- tion those things that make up daily living. “These centers or districts of particu- lar industries change from time to time. changes, these migrations. Better trans- portation; closer proximity to hotels; to the great stores, all*these and many other factors help determine where an industry centers its activities. Take the millinery trade which, as recently as five years ago, was segregated and established in two widely separated sec- tions. There was the downtown Broad- way center, and the - ptown center, lo- cated roughly between Thirty-second and Thirty-ninth streets, between Fifth and Sixth avenues. The downtown center of the millinery industry con- centratea largely on untrimmed hats, hat bodies and associated tines. “The trimmed hat industry was lo- cated in the uptowhk-genter. Less than Many factors contribute to these | five years ago there’ were signs that a third millinery district was in embryo, evidenced in a témdency on the part of large millinery concerns to locate in the garment center on Seventh ave- nue, with their showrooms and head- quarters in the same buildings that were designed especially for the cloak and suit and dress houses. Some of these migrating concerns came from downtown and some of them moved over to Seventh avenue from the dis- trict above Thirty-second street. It did not take any considerable ried of time for these emigrees in the millinery business to realize that they were out of their element. Their garment trade center location meant that their retail buyers had to leave the established section where most of the houses in that line were located and make a trip into the garment center. Fag roved to be impractical, as the houses quickly discovered. Now thege self-same concerns are casting their eyes back to the logical spot for their busi- ness locations, in the section between Fifth and Sixth avenues, from Thirty- sixth street to Thirty-ninth street. More Move Uptown. “In fact, some of them already are back. The downtown millinery houses likewise are moving uptown in tncreas- ing numbers. It does not require any great wisdom to envisage the imme- diate future of the logical millinery cen- ter.

As a matter of plain fact, many concerns which will be there are sim- ply waiting for the termination of ex- isting leases in the old downtown mil- linery section or over in the garment center section where they moved so en- thusiastically a few years ago. “This millinery center becomes more definitely fixed each day. It would be a brash prophet who would say that there has been any overbuilding in this section. Certainly there are new build- ings in this immediate district we have discussed, and there is floor space avail- able right now. That this is go is rathor a tribyte to the foresight and sagacity of those who are anticipating the inevitable and certain demand, The soundness of the judgment of those who put up the buildings in the mil- linery district can be appreciated even by the layman, when he realizés that this large industry must confine itself because of the very nature of things to what amounts to a section of only four blocks. Demand Must Rule. “Therefore, any consideration of the subject of overbuilding must show that there is oné real test that should be applied—it is not whether there is at any given moment a supply of vacant spaces, but rather is there sufficient demand on the part of any particular industry for that space, either immedi- ately or in the near future. “Any discussion of Manhattan build- ing construction that attempts to deal intelligently with it in relation to any possible condition of overbuilding must differentiate carefully betweeh over- building and unwise building. It ts evident that there have been a number of buildings erected within the last few years that have caused experienced builders and investors to raise their eyebrows, but because of these few cages, One should not say that there is any general overbuilding in -Man- hattan. “A look under the surface of thingsT will show, I believe, that in most cases such buildings were erected by owners whose knowledge of the law of supply and demand, of kind and character, of fitness of location, was fay less than the erthusiasm thet lead te the investment of capital thet was expended unwisely, to gay the least.” Township Leads in Saving.

JENGLISH COTTAGE TYPE ARCHITECTURE IS USED Color-Blend Stone of Resi- dence Gives Appearance of Great Age. Hugging the crest of a long, grace- ful hill, which fades gently into two little winding brooks, lined with large bowlders and graceful old trees, and overlooking three beautiful valleys, is a home of unusual distinction and simple beauty, quite unlike anything around Washington. Stonecroft is owned and occupied by Dr. and Mrs. Philander D. Poston, and has been completed but a few months. The landscaping, while under way, is not yet finished, as it will re- quire a year or more under the treat- ment proposed. The location of this home is in Woodside Park, Md., which until recently was the old Noyes es- tate—one of the beauty spots of near- by Maryland—and is at the junction of Woodside and Alton parkways, two beautiful, winding drives, 100 feet wide. The splendid work of the fine arts commission, the Federal planning com- mission and other bodies, looking to the preservation of the few remain- ing beauty spots of syburben Wash- ington, is being exemplifia in the de- velopment of Woodside Park, a 200-acre tract, upon which large sums were spent for many years by the late Crosby Noyes in enhancing its nat- ural beauty. The demand of these Federal commissions for the buitiding of really artistic homes on larger tracts is being happily met here. Dr. Posten’s residence is of the Eng- lish cottage type. It is built of color- blend stone, and even now the stone- work give the appearance of age, an ef- fect striven for in this house. It has a large expanse of roof of thatched Ver- mont slate, which in color blends softly into the dull pastel tones of the stone. Tt faces fair to the south and sits on an eminence about 40 feet above the drive- ways which almost surround it. Skill Is Reflected. The utmost care and skill are every- where reflected both along architectural and construction lines. There is evi- dence at every hand of the touch of the artist, and every detail blends beau- tiully into’a harmonious whole. It is as refreshing and satisfying as it is simple, ag the pure cottage spirit has been carried out both in design and in the finishing and furnishing of the home. — The best meterials of every deéscrip- tion were used, including hollow tile inner lining, brass pipe, steel casement windows, plate glass, celotex insulation, metal lath, varicolored Vermont slate, &c. From a construction standpoint it is built like a battleship and is des- tined to reach a very ripe old age when compared with houses of current build. Judged by the inner and oyter charac- ter of the house, one would think it had beén created at the hands of some ‘be used as an Open air adn Mrehte enue Since. the house sits nearly 1 from: th e t consis rathskeller in the basement, and the laundry reom and heating plant. the first floor are a spacious living room, dining room,” kitchen, two bedrooms and bath, also built-in garage with ser- vants q above. On the second floor are two bedrooms and bath. There are many large storerooms and Closets. Some of the interésting features about this most unusual house are the exqui- site tiled floor in the dinin m, of 20 rich 1 shades, the tile being 2 by: 8 inches; the paneling in living room and stairway, of weathertd oek, whose history goes back about 50 years, it hav- ing been salvaged from the old Noyes house when it was demolished; the wide, hospitable fireside seats have the same history. Other features are the massive hand- hewn beams in the ceiling of the ‘Rath- skeller.” This room has a huge fire- place of rugged stone, stone walls on two sides and the third side is paneled. It carries the spirit of the medieval. The dining room bay of five casement win- dows, and a French steel casement win- dow leading onto the chimney terrace make this one of the showrooms of the house. On the East side, running down the long, graceful slope from the terrace towards the little brook, are under con- struction five rose-terrad@es, each sup- ported by a stone wall, Aong, winding drive enters the property on the west side, passing between two effective treatments of stone, and is bordered for about half its distance by long stone re- taining walls. Not the least interesting thing about the whole place is the guest house—sit- ting back in the edge of the pines and dogwood, and built, unaided by Dr. and Mrs. Poston. It is.of stone and log construction and contain: a large com- bined sleeping and dining room, kitchen and bath, as well as large front and back porches.

AWOKE in the morning with a dull The first interhigh school chess) match to be. contested in this city was played last week between picked teams, five playérs on a side; representing Cen- | tral and Western High schools. As was to be expected from the fact that the Central lads enjoyed chess organization fora period of three years to their op- ponents’ one year, the Mount 'Pleas- ant aggtegtaion carried off the victory with a score of 4 wins and 1 loss. The Western youngsters, however, gave closer: opposition than. the score would indicate, and it-is not, unreasonable to prophesy -that should these ~matches continue in the.future,: they may re- verse the score. ha On board 1 Carl A.

The experience of Hesse, gained: at the Capitol City Chess. club, however, told_in the end game, and after his opponent threw away his drawing chances by a: wholesale. ex- change of the major pieces, he quickly forced the win. .

I looked in the telephone book. He wasn’t listed. Strange. Upsetting. . In the office several things hap- pened to annoy me. I was, late.

He watched me so closely it made me nervous. The telephone ,rang constantly. And there were more men calling than any day since I had been with him. Queer-look- ing men, I thought. Some of them roughly dressed. Others almost too slick to be good form. Peter, the tow-headed office boy, rushed in and out, stopping occasion- ally at my desk to grin at me. I had a small cubby hole connected with Mr. Marvin’s office. When we were alone he Jeft the door open: As soon as any one came in he invariably closed it. ; There was also a door into the small outer room where Peter ruled supreme. Often he went. through my cubby in- stead of using the other door. There was a lull in the callers about noon. Mr. Marvin had gone out with the last one, a common, rough-looking fellow.. One of his rules. I was never to leave the switchboard when he was out. “What kind of a broker is Mr. Mar- vin?” I asked Peter. “Ain't you dumb! . Heein’ aH. them oil and minin’ papers on his desk. What kind of a broker you think he was?” He winked at me. . “I really didn’t know. .Yes, I have seen the papefs,” I said, wondering why Peter winked at me. Always Mr. Marvin. kept his desk j locked.

When one is not 19, it isn’t hard to be opti- mistic. I was silly to think Bob would mind my going out with one of the home boys. I had no engagement with him. Perhaps he just wanted to talk to me. Anyway he must have been thinking of me. Tranquillity. A rush of happiness. During a quiet spell late in the after- noon, Mr. Marvin suddenly commenced to question:me. Asked me who my friends were. Personalities. “I am almost an entire stranger in New York,” I told him. “But you said you were out last night?” Narrowed eyes. Suspicious. “One of the boys from home was hére on business. I went out with him.” “I see. An old beau.” “Just a friend. We went. to school together.” “Don’t know any New York fel- lows? sa A man came in before I could reply.

“a “a as Bay i & Wy ‘ : aoe New Hospital Heating W SHITE RENEWS DISPUTE OVER RANK 11 Booms Only Greeted Rear Admiral Blakely at Hawaii; Should Have Been 13. CONTENTION IS ARMY VIOLATED REGULATION Congress and Attorney Gen- eral Have Figured in Row Dating From 1917. There recently was a recurrence of the controversy that has cropped up from time ‘to time between the army and the navy over the relative rank of brigadier generals of the army and of- ficers of the lower half of the list of rear admirals of the navy who receive the same pay as brigadiers. The late instance was when Rear Admiral John R. Y. Blakely, one of the junior officers of his grade, arrived at Honolulu several weeks ago and as- sumed command of light cruiser divi- sion No. 3. On that occasion he was given a salute of eleven guns by the commanding officer of the army post of Schofield barracks. Upon inquiry being made the army commanding of- ficer stated that the salute was that authorized in army regulations for a brigadier general of the army and rear admiral of the navy, lower half. Salute as for Major General. As a matter of fact, the salute for any rear admiral of the navy is that authorized for a major general of the army, the law providing that all rear admirals rank with major generals. An act of October 6, 1917, contained @ provision that “brigadier generals of the army would rank with rear ad- mirals of the navy lower half,” but after many efforts it was found impos- sible to put the law into effect. The original controversy regarding the application of the law occurred in Hawali, and it resulted in the matter being presented to the Attorney General for opinion. ‘That official first held, in an opinion addressed to the Secretary of War, that rear admirals of the navy, lower half, ranked with brigadier gen- erals of the army, but a subsequent opinion advised that the act was in- operative. Sought to Reduce Relative Rank. Another effort was made to Congress during the Sixty-ninth session to re- duce the lower-half rear admirals. A bill relating to the promotion situation in the army contained a provision that, if enacted into law, would have had the effect of reducing the relative rank of rear admirals, lower half, from that of major general to that of brigadier general. This provision was the sub- ject of a communication from the Sec- retary of the Navy to the chairman of the House military committee request- ing that the Navy Department be ac- corded a hearing before the committee on that portion of the bill. The com- mittee did not take the bill up for dis- cussion, and nothing came of the inci- dent. It appears that the army regulations were changed some time ago to au- thorize a salute of but eleven guns for rear admirals of the lower half, and that they have not yet been corrected. The War Department, however, con-. cedes the right of all rear admirals to a salute of thirteen guns. Army Plans Menus On Ration Increase With a ration increase from 35 cents to 50 cents assured, the War Department has started plans to see that it will be utilized to best advantage from stand- points of increased attractiveness of menus and dietetics. The nine schools for bakers and cooks, including that of Camp Meade, Md., will give special in- structions to from 40 to 60 cooks at each school so that they can use the larger ration in the best way possible. An expert dietitian from the bureau of home economics, Department of Agriculture, has been sent to the school at Camp Meade, where an informal in- spection of the methods of preparing food and standard menus will be made. It is expected that the suggestions of the bureau will be of great value in. giving the army meals that savor of home cooking flavor which will appeal ‘especially to citizens’ military training camp students this summer. Plant. Being Planned Plans and specifications are being prepared in the bureau of yards and docks, Navy Department, for a steam- heating RE at Naval hospital, Great Lakes, Ill. At present steam for heat- ing the buildings on the hospital res- ervation is obtained from two tempo- rary boiler plants. Funds for the new installation, amounting to $200,000, have been allotted from the naval hos- pital fund. The new plant will result in more efficient service and a saving in costs. Contracts have been awarded for an extension to the motor test shed at the engineering experiment station at Annapolis, at $6,478, and for removing the radio transmitting station at naval air station, Lakehurst, N. J., at $7,457. MARINE CORPS ASSIGNMENTS CAPTAINS—G. F. Adams to New Lon- gon, Conn.; C. N. Muldrow to Newport, LIEUTENANTS—D. W. Davis c department; H. D. * Boyden to to — Va. this OUCH!

NAVAL PAY DEDUCTION RULING WITHOUT EFFECT Accounting Head Determined to Obtain Money Held Due U. S. on Allowances. TO ASK COURT DECISION Rulings of the Supreme court of the District in a number of recent cases wherein the Secretary of the Navy and the comptroller general were enjoined from deducting from the pay of navy officers amounts alleged by the comp- troller general to be due the United States on account of allowances paid for dependents, apparently have had no effect upon the determination of the head of the general accounting office to secure refund of the alleged indebt- edness. It now is the practice of that office to refuse payment of claims by officers of the navy on account cf mileage, traveling expenses, amounts due for clothing loss and numerous other claims, but to apply the amounts law- fully due the officers as set-off against the amounts alleged to be due the United States on account of allowances previously paid for dependents. This practice exists even in cases where the Supreme court of the District has issued injunctions precluding such amounts being deducted from the officers’ pay or allowances. Such a practice appears to be in di- rect conflict with the spirit of the decrees issued by the court, if not the letter of such decrees. The action of the courts of the District of Columbia has secured to the officers the right to receive their pay and allowances regu- larly without any deduction on account of any charges raised by the general accounting office, and it is believed by ‘those adversely affected by the present practice that such a ruling should ap- ply to amounts due the officers on aecount of expenses incurred by them in performing official travel for the government. It is understood that steps are to be taken to bring the situation to the attention of the Supreme court of the District of Columbia with a request for a decision as to whether the writs of injunption previously issued in such cases should not be extended to cover all unts to which an officer may entitled from the government, ts performing official travel, form of mileage or reim- for actual expenses.

This year will be an exceptional one, because of an unusual number of va- cancies that will occur among the gen- eral officers of the army, which will af- ford opportunity for promotion of col- onels. Five major generals and five briga- dier generals of the line, Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick, chief of the air corps, and Maj. Gen. Eli A. Helmick, inspector general, will reach the retir- ing age. The death of Brig. Gen. La Roy 8. Upton, and the probable retirement of his successor, Brig. Gen. William J. Glasgow, on account of physical disability, would make another vacancy. Thus twelve and possibly thirteen colonels will have opportunity to become brigadier generals. Eligible Lists Kept Secret. In accordance with a provision of the national defense act, selection of gen- eral officers is from an eligible list pre- pared annually by a board of five ma- jor generals. The composition of the boards and the eligible lists they pre- pare are shrouded in secrecy. Until the Secretary of War and the President make the final selections, any predic- tions as to appointment of general offi- cers is mere speculation. For the five vacancies that will occur in the grade of major general of the line, the following appear to be the favorites among those in the service: Brig. Gens. Briant H. Wells, Dwight E. Aultman, Albert J. Bowley, Joseph C. Castner, Edward L. King, Frank R. Mc- Coy, Stuart Heintzelman and Edwin B. Winans. Mentioned to Succeed Helmick. For the vacancy to be created by the retirement of Maj. Gen. Helmick, Col. George H. Jamerson, infantry, and Col. William C. Rivera, cavalry, are most prominently mentioned. Many colonels are mentioned as probable selection for the grade of brigadier general of the line, among them being Cols. William 8S. McNair, field artillery; Ernest D. Scott, field artillery; James H. Reeves, cavalry; George H. Jamerson, infantry; John F. Preston, infantry; Frank 65. Cocheu, infantry; Edward T. Hartman, infantry; Sherwood A. Cheney, corps of engineers; Andrew Moses, field artil- lery; Lytle Brown, corps of engineers; William K. Naylor, infantry; William C. Rivers, cavalry; Harley Ferguson, corps of engineers; David L. Stone, quartermaster corps; Charles E. Kil- bourne, coast artillery; and John J. Taffey, infantry. GAITIGIOM OF PROMOTION|: MEASURES ARE STUDIED Army Men Find Many Arels Based on Misunder- standing of Bills. FAVORITISM IS DREADED Close attention is being given in the War Department to many communica- tions received from army officers about the several bllis introduced in the Sixty-ninth Congress for the purpose of correcting the stagnation now exist- ing in the opportunities for promotion in the army. These communications are being studied to discover whether the contentions set forth by them, as to the effect of the bills, are sound. It already has been discovered that many of these communications are | based on misunderstanding of the pro- L visions of the several schemes contain- ed in the bills and result in miscon- ception by the writers of the ultimate effect. In other letters, it has been dis-' covered that the facts upon which the writers have discoursed are not correct, which necessarily results in erroneous conclusions. The majority of the communications | ' are discussions of the merits of the ‘bills introduced by Senator Wadsworth, two of which were introduced, and one of which was passed by the Senate late in the session and not acted on by the House. the propriety of allowing a board of general officers to determine who is to be removed from the active list of the army for the purpose of stimulating promoti6n of those that remain. Some of the writers apprehend that it will result in favoritism, and others express the conviction that such a pro- cedure will have a detrimental effect ,upon the morale of all officers below ‘the rank of brigadier general. All of these letters overlook the fact that the Wadsworth bill that passed the Senate contained only provisions for voluntary separation from the service of officers upon their own applications, and that the board of general officers would | N have no opportunity to function with | to Fo any officer unless he made Maj. Conrad Skl Lindsay McD. Silvester to Fort Hf N Lieut. respect to a voluntary request to be honorably discharged with a cash gratuity of $40 for every month of commissioned serv- ice or had requested to be transferred | C. to the retired list. Upon ee iy of such requests, then the board general officers was to function and arrive at a determination | sonwinn as to which of the oot De spared filing such Ra applications might best th e active list. ENGINEERING STATUS OF SHIPS ANNOUNCED sot | Arizona Leads the Battleship |4,.47 Class and Black Hawk Ten- Many writers are fearful of | to Demo li: fon “Bom bs: Made For Service Tests by Army 50 of 300-Pound Size Completed at Picatinny Arsenal. Experiments Conducted to Decrease Size of Parachutes Now in Use. Metal parts of 50 demolition bombs, 300-pound cylindrical body, represent- ing an experimental order for proving ground and army service tests, have been completed at Picatinny arsenal, N, J., and Joaded. All airways parachute flares that have passed the date of serviceable life are being collected and returned to Picatinny arsenal, and instructions have been issued cautioning organi- zations against the requisitioning of quantities of. these flares in excess of their actual needs. The arsenal has renovated 21 airways parachute flares for the Postoffice Department. A series of different size parachutes made up at Picatinny arsenal have been tested at Aberdeen proving ground, Md., in an effort to decrease the size of the parachutes used. The tests indicate the present size may be decreased, and work on the problem is being con- tinued. In view of adverse reports received, particularly from overseas, with regard to the strength of ammunition boxes, some of the boxes having been received in damaged condition, studies are be- ing made in an attempt to devise some means to strengthen them without seriously increasing their weight and volume. Ten machine gun water-box pumps, used last year during the antiaircraft tests at Aberdeen proving ground, have been sent to Springfield armory, Mass., for modification, with a view to their use with the caliber .30 guns only, dur- ing the antiaircraft practices this year. A new cooling system is under develop- ment for use with the caliber 50 ma- chine guns. Much larger water boxes will be’ required for them, and it is proposed to use rotary type pumps in place of the plunger type heretofore employed. | SERVICE ORDERS | ARMY ASSIGNMENTS.

By HARRY HITES. N commemoration of the sesquicen- tennial of the adoption of the Amer- ican flag on June 14, 1777, by the American Congress at Philadelphia, the United States Flag association, headed by President Coolidge as honorary president, and which is an organization founded for the promotion of reverence for the flag and the ideals and institutions for which the flag stands, has launched a campaign for a million members through the forma- tion of ‘“‘sesquicentennial living flags” throughout the nation. National, state, county and city “living flags’’ will con- stitute the membership pledged to the support of the movement to cherish and support the ideals and traditions for which the flag stands. The organiza- tion is strictly noncommercial, all the officers serving without pay. “The movement is simply what might be termed an effort -4?hich-appears -to ~ be successful at present) to launch a patriotic revival. We have religious re- vivals during which the so-called ‘back- sliders’ return to the fold. We need a revival of patriotism, a return to the spirit which animated our forefathers when they founded this greatest of nations and adopted a flag, emblematic of their ideals and aspirations, and which has grown to represent the most powerful country in the world today. “We have no paid organizers. We work solely through volunteers, but while we can not remunerate these vol- unteers in a monetary sense, we have created a system of rewards which I think they will be glad to hand down to those who come after them. Each per- son who founds or forms a ‘living flag’ or renders other service to the flag which, in the judgment of the execu- tive committee, is deserving of the honor, will receive the flag medal, which carries with it a life membership in the Order of the Flag, which is the ‘legion of honor’ of the United States Flag as- sociation. To those who form or found two ‘living flags’ or render other spe- cially meritorious service to the flag, is awarded the patriotic service medal. A gold star is added for each additional flag formed. This decoration invests the recipient with sthe title of ‘“‘daughter of the flag”’ or “son of the flag,” as the case may be, and carries with it life membership in the. Order of the Flag. The American cross of honor is awarded to those who form thirteen ‘living flags’ or for ren- dering other exceptional service to the 7 flag. This decoration invests the re- cipient with the title of ‘lady of the flag’ in case of women and ‘knight of the flag’ in the case of men, and carries with it life membership in the Order of the Flag. The decorations will be awarded from time to time by the President of-the United States or other distinguished person at Washington or by some dis- tinguished person in the home town of the recipient, when the latter can not arrange to come to Washington. * 7 on OK T is interesting to note that the first American cross of honor, as well as several other decorations, will be be- stowed upon members of the D..A. R. during their continental congress here next month. President Coolidge has: consented to present the decorations in a special ceremony at the White House.

(Retired', Director General, United States Flag Association, 923 Fifteenth street northwest, Washington, D. C. Letters of acceptance from governors of various States, mayors of cities and other officials, and from the heads of patriotic societies, fraternal orders and civic bodies, promising cooperation, as- sure a widespread movement for the formation of the “living flag” and the association plans to extend ifs work so as to cover every one of the 48 States in the Union. In addition to the medals, engraved certificates, setting forth the nature of the work performed, as pre- sented to each “flagstaff” or organizer of a “living flag” and the component parts of.the flag each receive a certif- icate, which automatically entitles them to life membership in the United States Flag association, pledged to support its aims, which are set forth as follows: “To foster reverence for the flag of the United States and combat all in- fluerices, conditions and forces hostile to the ideals, principles and institutions for which that flag stands.” - OR the achievement of these aims the United States Flag associa- tion, it is explained, has carefully pre- pared a comprehensive, far-reaching educational program in the carrying out of which will be utilized to the greatest extent possible the press, radio and moving pictures, the three supreme agencies of public enlightenment. To these will be added the cooperation of patriotic societies, fraternal orders, civic bodies, men’s clubs, women’s clubs and other organizations as well as the public and private schools of the coun- try. The primary function of the United States Flag association in this program of education will be to provide literature for distribution through these agencies and to prepare instructional and patriotic programs which will be carried out by. them, thereby enabling the flag association to work aye i or- sa hundred million or more. All literature _ and programs will be prepared by ex- perts and furnished free. The United States Flag association is, therefore, to be, in effect, an agency for the stimula- tion and coordination of the efforts of t of other btganiuatons in.

ITH the sesquicentennial of the adoption of the flag at hand, officials of the association determined to seize upon this occasion for a great demonstration throughout the United States with a view to enlisting a million earnest workers in the cause of seeing that more people honor the flag and uphold its ideals. In order to arouse the necessary in- terest, the association hit upon the plan of having the people of the various States, counties and cities form “living flags,” each to consist of a “flagstaff,” a “blue field,” 48 “stars” and thirteen “stripes.” Leaders in the. various sections have been asked to act as flagstaffs and form “such flags and they may be formed by children as well, although no flag can contain both adult and juvenile mem- bers. Each component part of a “living flag” becomes a life member of. the United States Flag association and also receives a certificate showing that he or she has become a part of such flag. A call for volunteers to act as flag- staffs has been. sent out and a grati- fying number of rreporens have already been received. Particular attention is to be paid to the education of school children in the . fundamentals of good citizenship and the proper observance of honor to the flag and the ideals for which it stands. Officials of the United States Flag as- sociation believe that efforts spent in inculcating the ideals and traditions of America, for which the flag stands, into the minds of the children of today, will mean the establishment of .a better adult citizenship in years to come, and that it will combat, to a large extent, any communistic or other anti-Ameri- can ‘propaganda that may come to the attention of the child now. | Parents, as well as teachers, will be asked to help in the education of the children of today.

JAMES A. MOSS, U.S. A. & (Retired). Director General of the United States Flag association. -olonel of the reguiar army who had fol- iowed the flag on the battlefields of three wars and who was, at his own re- quest, retired from active duty after 32 years’ service, in order that he might build, in this association, a living monu- ment to the flag which he had served so well and which had given him so much. The officer was James A. Moss, colonel, U. S. A. (retired). Col. Moss was born in a small town in Louisiana about seven years after the civil war. His father, a captain in Lee’s army, returned home after the sur- render at Appomattox, penniless. Union soldiers had burned his sugar houses and had freed his slaves and Capt. Moss found himself ‘faced with the necessity of making a fresh start. The Moss family was one of the old- fashioned -variety, numbering fourteen children. About the time James A. Moss was approaching his eighteenth birthday, the congressman from that district held a competitive examination for a cadetship at West Point and young Moss entered and won, entering West Point in 1890 and graduating in 1894. “My government gave me an excellent education that my father could not have given me because of his limited means,” Col. Moss explains. ‘Upon graduating from West Point, my government gave me an honorable position in its military service. As a result of the education thus received and the experience I had in the army, I was able to write a num- ber of military books—33 in number— that have given me distinction as a mili- tary author and more of this ‘world’s goods’ than I ever dreamt would be mine. I therefore feel that all I am, all that I have, I owe to my government and when I retired from active service some four years ago, I felt that if, be- fore I am taken out to Arlington ceme- tery, I could but do something that would bring into greater consideration and higher appreciative regard the flag of my country, and the ideals, traditions and institutions for which that flag stands, that when the Great Commander gives me the order for me to.go ‘over the top’ for the last time, I could march forward with firmness in my step and contentment in my heart, following ‘Old Glory’ in to’that realm where battle flags are furled and war drums throb no : longer. “This is the feeling, the thought, in which’ was conceived and born the United States Flag association, whose purpose is to foster reverence for the flag of the United States and combat. any and all influences hostile to the ideals, traditions, principles and institu- tions for which that flag stands, and it: is in this spirit that I have dedicated. the rest of my life to the work of the United States Flag association.” Tie That Col. Moss lives up to his exe: pressed ideals is demonstrated by the: fact that he has served the association: as director general since its foundation, without pay and has personally con- tributed liberally in a financial way to: the work of the association, in addition: to which he defrays his own expenses: while traveling in the interest of the ag : sociation.

What the prizefighter of today needs is a sense of rhythm, and the one who gets it first and gets it right will be a champion! That’s the general sense of the highly intel- ligent theories of Wolstan Brown, an amateur boxer of some repute himself and associate director of the Noyes School of Rhythm of New York. Gene Tunney, the current champion, is sin- gularly lacking in rhythm, according to Mr. Brown, because he thinks too much, strange as that may seem, and is, in fact, a hand-made chanipion. Jack Dempsey, on the other hand, is a “natural.” He has as much unconscious rhythm in his movements as a cat, which he resembled when he was at his best. It was his timing and his rhythm which made him, at 190 pounds, the deadliest puncher in ring history. But Dempsey is a “throw-back.”’ He is partly Indian. He is, therefore, partly a “primitive.” What Wolstan Brown says ought to be done is to give a sense of rhythm and timing to boxers reared In more artificial surroundings, else the race will face an eternity of machine- made boxers of the caliber of Mike McTigue ‘and Young Stribling, to the everlasting bore- dom of the millionaires and the others who buy tickets for boxfights. Rhythmic sense is to be obtained by study- ing rhythmic dancing in a serious way, he declares, and by practicirg it under the direc- tion of real masters.

It may be stated right here, for the benefit of those who follow the pugilistic wars, that a master of a rhythmic dancing class depends much upon the imaginations of his pupils in getting them into the proper state of physical repose—or otherwise. He is likely, for instance, to take the kinks out of one’s back by telling one to imperson- ate a snowflake fluttering down upon a lonely plain.

Jack Delaney, otherwise Monsieur Ovila . Chapdelaine, is the only one of the active boxers of today who understands and employs rhythm to the fullest extent, Mr. Brown thinks. Jack has the art of stalking an opponent and shooting the right straight to the chin at the opportune moment down to a science. His failure to deliver against Jimmy Maloney - of Boston, Mr. Brown ascribes to the fact that he was meeting a man younger, stronger and very much bigger than himself. ' Smiting, or socking power, according to Wolstan Brown, originates in a spot in the back, between the shoulder blades—a fact that few boxers know. The average boxer of Dempsey’s strength couldn’t knock over a wax cloak model, says the observant Mr, Wolstan Brown. And why? Because the average boxfighter seldom thinks at all; he is the mannikin for the ideas of trainers who haven't learned a thing since Bob Fitzsimmons put the long sleep on Jim Corbett. When he wants to put power in a blow he goes down to one side, as if he were reaching for a brick. Result: He doesn’t get the power he wants, and when his opponent jabs back he is off balance. Nod timing. No rhythm. Many strange things have happened in the pugilistic art since Charley Mitchell stepped on John L. Sullivan’s foot as they squared off on the French greensward, and even stranger things are in the offing, according to Mr. Brown, the apostle of rhythm. In the very near future the boxer who doesn’t know rhythm will be as outclassed as the boxer of today who goes into action against’ a dangerous opponent without a medical certificate showing him ‘to be pos- sessed of dandruff, fallen arches, peritoni- tis, fracture of both wrists, paralysis of the elbows and an inferiority complex. Already several ambitious fisticuffers are in training at the Noyes School of Rhythm, which is conducted by Florence Fleming Noyes. The first thing Brown tells a boxer is that his main duty to himself and his pub- lic is to move always on balance. frst commandment of the school of rhythm. Next, he tells a man that blows don’t start from the shoulder but from that center of power in the back, between the shoulder. blades.

They must learn to “suspend the body” from that spot between the shoulder blades. In “The Dance of the Shield,” for instance, which is pictured above, the young woman demonstrates the fine art of balance and tim-' ing in a way that future Berlenbachs and Paolinos must master. The. girl in the picture shows power in the back lines and there is in the half-sus- pended figure the suggestion of perfect con- *trol—a suggestion one does not get, for instance, watching some modern . boxers shamble and shuffie and carom about the roped arena and advertise the fact that they are muscle-bound and getting by on ‘‘main strength and ignorance.” In the other pictures appearing on this page, Florence Fleming Noyes and various of her disciples illustrate the value of rhythm in gaining mastery over the body. In one particular Mrs. Noyes herself, as. “Hebe,” demonstrates that relaxation with- out loss of power which trainers of prize- fighters aim at but rarely achieve. _Mr. Brown, contemplating present-day prise fighters and their need of rhythm, be- comes specific: “Take Mr. Berlenbach,” he says, referring to the former champion of the light ~ heavyweights. “Paul, as everybody knows, was a one- punch man when he was good, His left hook was the blow that he depended on. The strength and power in the blow are easily explained. When he approached an opponent he did not move in with long \steps, or visible effort, but went shambling He kept the left foot ad- in, like a bear. vanced. “The short steps enabled him to keep his ) balance and his weight suspended from the rhythmic spot, so when he struck it coor- dinated with the center of balance in - - powerful swing. | . | “Jim Maloney, of Boston, is another ex- ample.

He had to do . ‘that against pple: and. es wooais basi Che niin Ren. 04s ha who stands off and hits out straight.” Brown’s comments on Gene Tunney, heavyweight champion, are of interest to every follower of the ring game. He says Tunney really is a “highbrow fighter,” and his fail- ure to trust anything to intuition is just the reason he is not a great fighter. “Tunney thinks too much,” says Mr. Brown, “A fighter should never have to stop to think, He should feel his openings. If he were properly trained in rhythm he would, “Hard work and ‘concentrated gym training of the old-fashioned kind made Tunney what he is today. That, along with persistence and a strong character. But he has acquired his present form working from outside toward the center. His balance and movements have gradually become centralized, but he has not the perfect instinctive balance of—oh, say Dempsey or Delaney.” Brown points to Monte Munn, the Nebraska giant, as a horrible example of a fighter with- out sense of timing, balance or rhythm. He says that Munn when he tries to get all his strength into a blow goes off balance, and the reason he hasn’t been knocked bow-legged is that he hasn’t met any really good men. ‘It is considerable of a job, Mr. Brown admits, to make a rhythmic boxer out of a novice, and some second-raters are so unintelligent that they would have to be given up and left to their fate. “When we teach a man to box to rhythm,” he says, “we have to remake him. First of all we have to change his bodily poise, his stand- ing and moving positions. In the average modern figure the backbone rounds in just about at the waist. The- curve must be straightened until the back bends freely in the backward direction. - “Shoulders must be loosened so that the shouldad and back muscles move freely in any direction, The average neck has to be straight- ened and the torso itself must be loosened up and revitalized until the old articulations that are so noticeable in Greek:marbles appear. It's quite a big order for a trainer.” It will ‘take ‘months to instill a sense of rhythm into a man conspicuously lacking in that characteristic, Mr. Brown admits, but he en en = eee ay ag ’ areca ‘i, * so) xt aa ei mol Rigeden: Aker S Fingrol f please Bits! civ déve iN ing he yi The feeling which in- spires this grac eful pose is one that will enable the boxer who applies himself to a study of the rhythm of the dance to escape the “leg weari- ness” which is so often fatal to suc- cess in the ring. “rhythmic punch.” — After peering with interest and intensity at sundry sluggers, boxers, jabbers and “stallers,” who practice their manly art in the ring, Mr. Brown is convinced that the average boxer starts the wallop from a point just “to the side or in front of the shoulder,” and so hits from the shoulder instead of from the real center of power and gravity in the middle of the back. He describes the rhythmic punch in the fol- lowing technical language: “As your fist travels out from the rhythmic spot the spot drops. The arm goes out to full length in no way hindered by the shoulder, and comes to a stop only when it has stretched from the rhythmic spot itself, and then it snaps back to the first position.” Shades of Terry McGovern and Ruby Robert and Frank Moran!

Pressed hack by advancing civilization, he has retreated as did the In- dian before him, giving place to other men and methods. A picturesque figure, the gaucho rode the pampas, living in the saddle, sleeping beside his horse, sufficient unto himself. Around him is woven the romance of the Argentine plain. Part Spaniard and part Indian, he shared the virtues and the vices of both races. He was a loyal friend, a cruel and vindictive enemy. A gentleman in. all externals, he moved with grace and spoke with courtesy. ‘Like his more northerly kinsman, the Hanero of Colombia, he was in his own way both poet and musician. By both character and en- vironment he was highly imaginative and superstitious. \ The gaucho has almost passed.

HEN in the ’teens, John Drew made his first appearance on the stage 54 years ago. Wednesday of the past week marked the anniversary. The debut took place in the old Arch Street theater, Philadelphia, March 23, 1873—just about the time they were getting ready to pave Penn- sylvania avertue. The play was ‘‘Cool as a Cucumber,’”’ though Johnnie was not. He es- sayed the role of Plumper—whoever or what- ever that may have been. It is stage history that young Drew got away to a good though somewhat nervous start. He has been hard at the business ever since, with only an oc- casional lay off. Namesake and son of an Irish comedian, John Drew stands at the head of his profes- sion in these 48 States of the Union—and the District of Columbia... The Drews and the Barrymores, closely related, are the out- standing theatrical families in America, and John’s mother, up to the time of her death, in 1897, was to the Stage of her day what Ethel Barrymore, her sister’s daughter, 1s to the theater of our time. Mrs. John Drew was probably the most famous Miss Malaprop in any period since the Sheridan plays be- came popular. She played with Joe Jeffer- son, Some three years after his Philadelphia ven- ture, young John Drew landed a job With the Augustin Daly Stock company in New York, as leading man. This was one of the Daly sur- prises. The old master had become interested in @w farce written by a noted German play- wright, Von Moser. The Berliners and Viet- nese had taken it to their hearts. The farce ridiculed senseless speculation in stocks; a disease that gripped the Germans after their enormous success in the Franco-Pruss‘an campaign—somewhat akin to the War baby bubbles of our own country. Daly recon- structed the farce, made it into an American play and cast John Drew in the role of the impecunious rolling stone, Bob—a novice as leading man in a metropolitan theater. The play was produced under the title of ‘‘The Big Bonanza,”’ on February 17, 1875. For many years Drew continued under this man- agement. ; * » HEN most folk have reached the good old age of 70—or thereabouts—they plan on occupying easy rocking chairs out on the old veranda, in summertime, and prop- ping their feet on comfortable hassocks in front of fireplaces in winter. There, too, they hope to remain; nor intend to brave the suns of summer, or woo the wintry winds. John Drew, with 54 years’ stage experi- ence behind him, having earned a rest, is now starting a cross-country tour in an all- star cast; a company that accords him the high honor of being its star though he shares stardom with another old-timer, Mrs. Thos. Whiffen, who answers 82 to the call boy of Time. When a woman says she’s 82 years of age there’s no telling just how young she may be.

P. Heggie and Henrietia Crossman: and several others whose names are known from one end of the country to the other. Recently there has been a school of what might be termed smart-alecky dramatics that frowns upon the works of Sir Arthur Pinero, disparaging and branding them as traditiona!} and old-fashioned; as if tradition 1s a bogey and fashions never to be revived. Shakespeore and Sheridan are answers enough to the charge; the one traditional and the other old- fashioned, * * * & INERO gave to the theater more than 54) plays. Six or seven successive decades enjoyed his work. Ag long ago as the early eighties he was recognized as the leading living playwright in the English language. Jn the late nineties he had climbed so high there ’ was no one to hold a candle near him. Com- ing into the twentieth century, before 1910 had rolled around, Pinero had written three of the greatest plays produced on the boards of an English-speaking stage—‘‘Iris,’’ ‘‘The Thunderbolt”? and ‘‘Midchannel.’” Until tne outbreak of the world war he was preeminent- ly the leading playwright contributing to English drama, Since its original production, ‘‘Trelawny of the Wells’”’ has been brought back on three memorable occasions in America. There have been occasions when other old plays were revived by all-star casts and when these all-star casts outshone the present ar- semblage; but they were, for the most part, benefit performances given for one night only. This revival, with its unusual cast. en- ters the lists as a competitor with current at- -tractions—and so goes down as a soit of museum of players and play. ‘‘Trelawny of the Wells.’’ There is magicry in the title. Essentially English, since its author built this comedy around and from material he had gleaned in his boyhood days in London, “Trelawny of the Wells,’”’ as a title, is mystifying to the average American who has neither seen the play nor knows any- thing of Pinero’s work. “The Wells” and “Trelawny.” What is it all about? ‘“‘Who is Trelawny?” and “What are the Wells?” or ‘‘What is Trelawny?’’ If, by the same token, some one were to write a play about an outstanding actress of America, say Ethel Barrymore, for instance, and called it ‘“‘Barrymore 9f the Empire,”’ it would be known, forsooth, that the Empire was the theater wherein Ethel cavorted. It was that way with Rose Trelawny. The Wells—the theater. For some thirty-odd years, or since it first gained fame in this country, the play has been the meat of amateurs and professionals. The Players club in New York has revived it, and all-star casts on several occasions have brought it back to the footlights. High school pupils in Washington some years ago made _ quite a hit in the play—one that lends itself readily to the display of theatrical talent, “so the characters are many and so diversi- e Of course, an all-star cast gives an added relish to a play that is essentially an actors’. play. More than any other play, “Trelawny of the Wells” lends itself to treatment ac- corded it by the hands of experts. New York immediately took to the cast and the revival of “Trelawny.” In a house that usually dis- plays the dancing limbs of Mr. Ziegfeld’s chorines, headquarters for the Follies, John ‘ Drew and his fellow workers broke all records © at the New Amsterdam theater for straight dramatic box office receipts.

HILE Pinero’s fame rested on his more sérious plays, nevertheless a turn for comedy was his forte. He never quite gave up an inclination for farce and the farcical man- ner. At times he even leans toward bur- lesque: In “‘Trelawny of the Wells,” taking two distinctly opposite classes of people and pitting them, the one against the other, Pinero finds fun in situations brought about by the carefree, gypsy actor-folk vs. the staid, serious society element. Though he ven- tures into the field of broad and sometimes burlesque comedy, everything comes off well, since situations and sentences are timed to a nicety and technique well-nigh perfect. In the play, the actors are portraits, though not characters, of actors known to Pinerw in his boyhood days. The actress who-was the original of Rose Trelawny was worshipped by the playwright as a small boy. It vas generally understood throughout London that the Tom Wrench of the play was a por- trait of T. W. Robertson,. playwright pre- cursor of Pinero, who in this play professed to give the history of the emerging of modern drama from its earlier forms. After the first American performance. of “Trelawny of the Wells,’ with Mary Man- noring as Rose, Ethel Barrymore revived the play in 1911. In 1925 Laurette Taylor toox a fling at the role.

BEAUTY AND YoU “WHAT SHALL I EAT.” : By Viola Paris RRP Women are always writing to me, asking for diets—diets to reduce, diets to put on weight, diets to improve the complexion, or induce quiet sleep at night!

Don’t you realize, deep down in your obstinate heart, that you can’t drop pounds unless you also drop eating so much butter and cream, white bread, cereals and pastries? Don’t you know, in the place where you keep your brain with its fingers tight over its eyes, that the cause of your sleeplessness is too much coffee—that lobster and ice cream, working together, gave you that last disgraceful attack of indigestion? Don’t you know-——every one of you—what you should and shouldn’t eat? And yet you ask me! Five Hundred for Will Power. Do you knoW why you ask me? Because what you lack isn’t knowledge, but will puwer, and you want me to stiffen your, vackbone with my advice! As a well-known reducing specialist in New York said to me once, “Women pay me $500 to say ‘No!’ for them, because they haven’t decision of character enough to say it for themselves.’’ Only he didn’t use such a dignified phrase as ‘‘deci- sion of character;’’ he used a word of four letters. Aren’t you a little bit ashamed of yourself, my dear but dishonest reader? Won’t you say to yourself, ‘‘Enough of this procrastina- tion; things I ought to eat.” The Family Problem.. | Of course, when there is a family to be considered, the problem is more complicated. ° The man of the house wants more food than his wife ought to eat; the children need their own special menus; it is undeniably hard for a woman to consider herself and her needs. But these women who are the hard-working heads of households are not the greatest sin- ners in eating—and, if they were, their cease- less exercise would counteract most of the effects. The heinous sinners are those ladies of leisure who look down the left side of a menu only, or those smart business women and girls who rush out to lunch, planning to get the most taste for the least money, irre- spective of food values. Mrs. Richly and Miss Steno. ‘Mrs. Richly, who should eat a fruit salad and toast melba for her lunch, allows the menu to lead her toward an ox-tail ragout and a chocolate-ceated iced dessert of. some sort.

They failed, and today their very names are for- gotten. Here is the dramatic chronicle, of the first of the two: It was during the first years of the four- teenth century. Scotland was under the voke of England, and had been crushed into Then a group of Scot- tish patriots, headed by Sir William Wallace and by young Robert Bruce, raised the standard of revolt and devoted their lives to freeing their native land. It was a heartbreakingly uphill struggle, but they persisted. Little by little they began to make headway, but oftener one or both of them was either in flight from the English foe or else was in hiding, with a price on his head. One day Sir William Wallace, with a mere handful of followers, was ambushed by 600 English archers and cavalrymen. Wallace cut his way through the ambush and escaped, one of his lieutenants, Fawdoun by name, escaping with him. The English cavalry followed close on their heels. Because of their intimate knowledge of the wild moors and hills through which they fled, Wallace and Fawdoun were able to shake off the pursuit for a while. But the English had a clever guide in their efforts to track down the fugitives. They unleashed a great bloodhound they had brought along for such purpose, and set him on the trail of the two fteeing Scotchmen. Wagerly the bloodhound picked up the trail and galloped in pursuit, nostrils to earth. Behind him crowded the English. Straight toward Elcho the dog led the chase, drawing nearer and nearer to the exhausted refugees. Wallace heard the baying of the hound and bade Fawdoun redouble his speed. In- stead, Fawdoun refused to move a step far- ther. Apparently he thought Wallace’s life was forfeit and that the patriot cause was doomed. Therefore, he decided to cast his Piot with the pursuing English, rather than | bp the doomed chieftain. uspecting his follower’s treachery, Will- me ‘fallace drew his sword and struck Fawdoun dead at his feet.

Comyn’s favorite bloodhound was taken care of by the slain man’s cousin, John of Lorne, who swore to avenge Comyn’s death jf ever the chance should arise. The chance came soon enough.: Bruce was beaten in battle by the Edglish and was forced to flee for his life. He vanished into the almost inaccessible hill- country. John of Lorne offered his services and those of Comyn’s hound to help the English overtake the fugitive. The hound, struck Bruce's - . trail, and guided the pursuers easily through rocky glen and over tortuous mountain paths and down into valley and chasm again, at every step gaining ‘on the exhausted man...

Haunton, of Holyoke, Mass.: “Can not something be done about wild dogs, or dogs running wild, which chase and kill deer? Twice last winter while snowshoeing within a few miles of my home city I came across the carcasses of deer that had been killed by dogs. Two dogs were feeding on the first one I found. Recently as I entered the State reservation on Mount Tom I heard dogs barking. Soon a beautiful doe rushed past me followed by a mean little hound and a big brute of a police dog.. I could do noth- ing to stop them and they went down the road. The dogs had the advantage ag the crust held them while at every bound the doe broke through, leaving a good-sized blood spot in every track. The dogs were barking as they disappeared down the road and I felt sure a tragedy was soon to happen. Pres- ently the barking stopped and I knew it had happened. “IT followed the blood-stained trail to an open space where the doe had made her last stand. A plaee 50 feet in diameter was like a shambles.: The tracks showed that the doe had made a good fight of it, but that the big police dog was too much for her. When I ar- rived on the seene the dogs had sneaked off, satisfied with the killing. It made me sick at heart to see it all. I have found three deer killed by dogs. Others must have had like experiences. I wonder how many deer are annually killed by dogs and never found.’”’ No -wonder that’ sight made Mr. Haunton heartsick. It is a condition which prevails wherever deer are found near settled country, East and West, North and South. I have myself more than once heard dogs running deer. I have no doubt that the annual loss throughout the country from these outlaw dogs runs up into many thousands of deer. In some cases these dogs are homeless, In all too many other cases they are not homeless— they are simply gogs allowed to run wild. I contend that the man who allows his dog to run wild in the woods is as guilty of violation of the game. laws as if he had gone out into the woods with his gun and killed game ille- gally. Nor are the deer,the only sufferers from these hunting dogs. Foxes and rabbits are, of course, continually hunted. But it is also true that in the nesting season ground- nesting birds suffer from these canine out- laws. In the case of the deer a hound is usu- ally at the bottom of the trouble. It takes the nose of the hound to follow the deer. But almost invariably you will find dogs of other breeds running with the hound.. They are out for the kill. Everybody knows, or should know, that the greatest source of destruction to song birds is the common house .¢at running wild or allowed out at. night during the nesting sea- son. Both dogs and cats which have turned wholly wild should be shot on sight, both as a means of protecting the legitimate wild life and out of mercy to the dogs apd cats them- selves.

In other words, at birth they are really embryos.: The bear probably comes, second, the newly- born bear weighing but 8 or 10 ounces, while the mother may weigh 400 or 500 pounds or even more. Personally, I am inclined to give first place to the bear zs having the smallest babies in proportion to its size, due to the fact that the baby ‘possums have not in effect actually entered the world, while the baby bear has. The little cub, by the way, is born with eyes closed. They do not open until it is 40 to 45 days old. The little bears do not leave the cave or den in which they were born until they are between three and four months old. The Pernicious Bounty.. To meet the conditions brought about by the unprecedented influx of goshawks from the North this last winter at least one of the New England States through its fish and game com- mission has placed a bounty of $2 each on the heads of goshawks. This is:done, of course, in behalf of the sportsmen of that State. The goshawk is a notorious: killer of grouse. _Un- doubtedly there is some justification for shoot- ing this bird, but I regret exceedingly to see a bounty placed on its head. _Bounti¢s of ‘this kind are pernicious. It would be all very well if the goshawks alone: would pay the penalty, but for every goshawk that falls to the guns of the bounty hunters there will be, I will venture to say, to 100 hawks of other species killed, and most of these species are distirictly © man with a gun can beneficial.

We have _ too many killers as it is. ° Furthermore, an- other year may see no such influx of this undesirable bird. A Natusaliat’s.

Be- sides, she knew her brother too well to be easily assured that he could pass two whole months away from her without committing. a number of social indiscretions. : He had such an ingenuous, uususpicious nature, he was so easily influenced, his sym- pathies were so readily stirred by absurd pre- tenders; in sliort, there was so much of the big, grown-up boy about him that Miss Ann often marveled that she could manage him as well as she did. Under the argent shield of the ‘Trenlay coat-of-arms was a long Latin inscription to this effect: ‘“‘An ancient name is a crown fo the head and a pack to the shoulders.’’ While the name of Trenlay is possibly not as ancient as it might be, a large number of persons on Manhattan island know that there have been several generations of ‘Trenlays who have been rich and that the later ones have been noted for a very aristocratic aloofness, the kind of aloofness which can only be vainly imitated by people with a ‘“shirt-sleeves grandfather.’’ “Perhaps there were one or two genera- tions that quite forgot the coat-of-arms and its cumbersome motto; but Miss Ann Trenlay expiated this neglect by being keenly conscious of both at all times, especially of the motto. That sentiment as to an ancient n&me she had taken as her creed. : Hence her anxiety concerning Burke. For Burke, although he had inherited the bulk of the Trenlay fortune, had very little of the Trenlay aloofness. Miss Ann could not un- derstand it. Sometimes she suspected him of a tendency to revert. In his elder brother, Alec, this tendency had been quite distinct: but then Alec had always seemed to be mote Maxwell than Trenlay. Burke had the Trenlay chin, the Trenlay nose, everything save the Trenlay reserve. There was no stubbornness about him, how- ever. Ie had been led to see the enormity of Alec’s offense—since Alec’s marriage, you know, he had never been recognized by the family—and Miss Ann was determined at all — to save Burke from anything of the nd. For one thing she could be thankful; she had brought him through the more difficult stages. He was nearing 30 now and still un- married. But he was impressionable. Miss Ann admitted that. He had an eye for a wax-doll face, a sentimental stare or a figure of good curves. He might pretend to a lack of interest, might even seem, to the casual observer, to exhibit a marked indifference to all feminine beauty, but Miss Ann knew better. *It had been no easy task, either, to keep Burke well insulated from objectionable in- fluences. Somehow, though, she had done it. She had revised guest lists, canceled accept- ances and restricted her own invitations with such care that, since he had come home from abroad, four years before, he had met socially only such young women as it was entirely safe for him to meet. Now that Miss Ann was to relinquish this watchfulness for almost an entire summer she was naturally somewhat anxious. A false step by him at this stage would be even more serious than in the case of Alec. On that occasion she had been able to appeal to her father, who had practically cut the elder son out of the will. But her dear father was no more.» Burke was at the head of the Trenlay family now. He was unhampered. Should he choose, and Miss Ann shuddered at the thought, he could bring to the old Trenlay mansion—you will find a picture of it in any New York guidebook—a wife such as Alee had chosen, and she would be mistress there. Why, Mrs. Alexander Trenlay had not known what it was to have a butler until two years . after she had been married and Alec had begun to make money in his stock-brokerage business! True, Aunt Abbie had written that they were very well received by the best people. It might be so. Miss Ann had her own ideas as to Boston society. Her one consoling thought was that Aunt Abbie’s Back Bay house was an ivy- grown hermitage from which she seldom emerged and to which few persons went. However, Aunt Abbie did know the Holts, and the Holts knew every one, without doubt. It had been at the Holts’ that Alec had met this Page person who was unused to butlers. So she had warned Burke. Now he must go and she must take her chances. *There! Your train is ready,’ announced Miss Ann. “And you have not sent that telegram about having the carriage meet you, But you can have the porter send it from the first station, I suppose. Just ask the op- erator over there if you may. And do hurry, Burke!”’ Thus urged, Burke Trenlay went to the telegraph wicket and made the inquiry.\ As he came back the train announcer began fill- ing the great rotunda with stentorian echoes intended to convey the information that the Boston Limited was about to depart. Burke quickened his pace, collided with a stout old gentleman hurrying toward the ticket win- dow, apologized, and then made a dash to- - ward the spot where a black-silk poppy, nod- ding above a tall seat-back, indicated his e sister. ‘stared in as ent.

He had kissed two women, each of whom wore a black-silk poppy in her hat. One of them was his sistér Ann. Yes, he was sure of that much. But who on earth was the other? ‘Turning his chair to the window he stared blankly out, seeing nothing but question marks. Who could she be?. What had she thought? What had she done? What did she mean to do about it? Flashlike a dozen disturbing possibilities came to his mind. Was she at that moment making a tearfully indignant complaint to the. station officials? Would they telegraph his description ahead; and would detectives, perhaps at New Haven, come aboard to drag him from the train? It would be a nice affair, would it not, for a Trenlay to figure in? And how would Ann take it? The very spirit of Burke Trenlay groaned at that thought. The Limited had gotten under way and had plunged half through the tunnel before Burke roused at all from these unpleasant speculations. Then, in a helpless, dazed way, he began to look about him. The very first object on which his vision rested was a poppy, a black-silk poppy, which nodded accusingly “I wonder if it is legible,’ she suggested. “Oh, yes, miss, ‘deed it is ntiss,’’ at him from over the chairtop directly in front. | With a kind of stupefied fascination he gazed at it. Cautiously, without once taking his eyes from it, he felt for his reading glasses and put them on. Yes, it certainly looked’ like a black poppy. Gaslight, though, is de- ceptive. It might be a dark-blue poppy or a deep purple one, or even gre2n. If only it might not prove to be black! He would wait for a better view: As the train emerged into the sunlight, however, hope fled. It was a black poppy. He was discovered, cornered. There was no escape. Just above Mott Haven there arrived a new view of the situation to comfort his har- rowed mind. The owner of the poppy hat had as yet made no hue and cry about hav- ing been kissed by a strange man. Having caught the Limited, she could have had no time to do so in the station. Of course, there was still every opportunity. Even then she might be planning a revenge for the indig-. nity. | Eventually she must discover him, for one can not sit for five hours within two feet of another person without being seen. Would she recognize him, though? chance in twenty, perhaps, that she’ would not. If she did—well, he could still hope that she might be induced. to listen calmly to his explanation without making a scene. Surely she must admit what might be called contributory negligence. Why had she worn a black poppy ip her hat? Why should she choose an end seat in the waiting room and occupy it at the exact moment when his sister should have been in the one at the other end of the row? Why— Sufficient to say that he made out for himself rather a strong case, not only proving his own inno- cence, but almost convicting the unknown wearer of the poppy hat of deliberately plot- ting to get herself kissed. by arm As the suburban stations whizzed by he began to wonder just how indignant she really was. She was sitting quietly enough, yet the poppy nodd | ever.

The porter returned with the telegraph blanks and Burke wrote his message to Aunt Abbie. “Yes, suh; yes, suh,’”’ said the porter suave- ly. ‘‘Send it at Noo Haven, suh. Ah’ll have to verify it, suh.’’ And before he could be stopped, he had read the message aloud. It was an extremely commonplace communi- cation, to be sure, yet to acute ears it might convey much. It told his name and the ad- dress to which he was going. ~*~ Obviously neither of these details escaped the person immediately in front. One could know that just by glancing at the poppy. While the wearer of it was making no move-to turn around and face. him she was trying to do something else, for her head swayed first to one side, then to the other. Ah, he understood! At the forward end of the car was a mirror. She was trying to catch a glimpse of him in that. The mirror, however, was some distance away and she was’ having poor success. Becoming inter- has recognized warm it»: 7 J oe *- r Be iilaescretm see’ pareve & sea | ee , — — i a i —_ There was one. \ ested in the game, Burke tried it,,too. With the nodding poppy to guide him he found the task not so difficult; only it was such a vague vista of persons that his untrustworthy eyes gave him but a shadowy idea of her ‘features. Such as it was, the glimpse was reassuring. She seemed to have rather a young and pretty face. He felt better immediately. Having kissed some one by mistake, he was not displeased to learn that he could not be accused of poor taste. | Burke Trenlay’s: mind was just then very keen. . An inspiration came to him. Why not seize the opportunity of establishing his defense by means of ‘another telegram” Quickly he acted upon this impulse. The second message which the punctilious porter repeated was as follows: Miss Ann Trenlay, ..- Fifth ave., New York city. Did I kiss you good-by more th in waiting room? Direct answer to Limited at Hartford. BURKE. Of course, he knew what the answer would be. “It would come from Ann’s secretary, left in charge of her charitable work. It would state that Miss Ann had driven di- rectly from the station to the steamer and once -was by this time on her way to Europe; all ‘of which Burke knew quite well—otherwise he would not have sent the telegram. The message would reach the ears under the hat, however. ' It did, too. The nodding poppy wig- wagged a. prompt response, but unluckily Burke was ignorant of the code. She had heard, she had understood;. but what the effect had been he could not determine. The suspense was not of long duration. Before the porter could pass her chair she had reached out a detaining hand. : wih 4 “Porter, will you send a message for me, too?” she asked pleasantly.

Her nose—she was ‘shamefully abusing that organ by flattening the tip of it with the end. of a silver pencil. - He wished he could see her eyes, which the dark lashes were hiding. He was sure they were nice eyes. Of course, Burke Trenlay was rather im- pertinent in making such close scrutiny of his fellow passenger. - But the case was some- what exceptional. He had kissed her, you see, and so it was difficult to remember that she was an utter stranger. Just where had he kissed her? On the cheek, was it? No, now that he recalled the incident, he was al- most positive that, as he had leaned down over the poppy hat—the first one—she had turned her head toward him, probably from a startled impulse, and that he had kissed her on the lips. They were very kissable lips, Burke noted. Again he experienced an un- accountable thrill. He even blushed a little. Now the message was finished. She wa’ summoning the porter, . the porter replied, and proceeded to read it. “Tl wonder if it is legible,’’ she suggested. “Oh, yahs, miss, “deed it is, miss,’”’ and he proceeded to prove that it was. It read this way: Alexander V. Trenlay, Boston. Burke and I are coming on the limited; and I have something perfectly killing to tell you of him. TEEDIE. Quite demurely she listened to the reading of it, handed the porter a dollar bill and, as the man left, calmly lifted a pair of big, mis- chievous brown eyes to Burke. “Oh, I say, you’re not going to tell Alec, are you?’’ The protest popped out like a cork from a wine bottle. He hardly knew that he had opened his lips until it had been uttered. 6 Sie INT 6 mean, you know . ,. . that is, I beg your pardon; but it was all a stupid mistake—your wearing a poppy in your hat, just like Ann’s, you see, and I was in a hurry, and ., . and ‘ really, I’m awfully sorry.

Pos- sibly he might have exercised sooner this newly discovered privilege. At any rate, he was glad that it existed. The future held possibilities. If only he could bridge over the perplexing present! But he must. It was imperative that he should assume to know just who Teedie was, even though he had not the faintest notion. “Ah,” he said, preparing for a plunge. “I never should have guessed that you were Teedie; honestly, I shouldn’t.” “No? And why not?” | There he was, in deeper water than ever. WHY 6 eo (0: OF ee. « » YOUR Cyes, you know.’’ “O!"’ and the dark lashes dropped de- murely. ‘‘But everyone seems to think that we have eyes very much alike.”’ Burke rolled the magazine very tightly in his big hands at this.

He caught at the straw. ‘‘Doubtless they are similar, but yours are of such a bright, lively shade of brown, while his * ‘“‘You mean hers.’’ “Hers, of course. of hers as fx “But. you have never seen my sister,’’ she objected wonderingly. Burke gazed at her open-mouthed. Fathoms and fathoms below him was the bottom, if bottom there was. No, the rea- son he failed to recognize Teedie was not because her eyes were unlike those of a brother who probably did not exist, nor of her sister, whom he had never seen. Per- haps he should have said mother or aunt or cousin? But he would hazard no more wild guesses.: Even at the risk of offending, Teedie he must get to the solid ground of comprehension. “You are right,’’ he admitied; “I have not seen your sister. Will you please tell me who she is?’”’ “Aha! Why didn’t you ask that in the first place?”’ and she shook the pencil Dlay- fully at him, ‘‘Well, I will tell you—she is Mrs. Alex Trenlay.’’ _“‘Alec’s wife!’”” Burke half-whispered the ejaculation, as though fearful that it might reach the ears of his sister Ann. Precisely what it was that Ann had found go objection- able in Alec’s wife, Burke had never clearly understood. He had heard that she was a Western girl and offensively beautiful. Now that he ‘reflected, he knew that these two items were quite sufficient for Ann. ‘‘Then you——you are ; _ “Yes, I am your dreadful sister-in-law Theresa Page, known to the family as Teedie. And I want to say to you right here, Mr. Burke, I am not the least little bit afraid of Ponce if you are the head of the Tren- ys. ‘Gracious! I should hope that. y wouldn’t be afraid of me.

I have often. wanted to,. and this ap- pears to be a grand opportunity, so I’m g0- ing to do it now.”’ While her tone was not menacing, there was a businesslike tilt to her capable little chin as she swung her chair independently about to face the window.: Meekly Burke followed and, turning his back to the aisle, prepared. to listen to whatever reproof the charming Teedie had in store for him. “You don’t approve of me?” he suggested. “No, I do not,” said Teedie promptly. “You are too meddlesome, for one thing.’’ ‘‘Meddlesome!”’ gasped Burke. ~ “That is my name for it; I suppose you call it something else. But what difference does it make to you, I would like to know, whether or not I appear in private theatricals, or travel alone sometimes, or visit the Brew- sters, or drive a tandem at a country horse show? And yet, when I wish to do any of these things I am told, ‘You mustn’t’ Teedie: Burke wouldn’t like it.’ It has been ‘Burke wouldn’t like this,’ and ‘Burke wouldn’t like that,’ ever since your brother married my sister, and I am tired of hearing it. There! I said I would tell you if I .saw you, and I have.”” Whereupon the black poppy on Teedie’s hat nodded frantic approval. ““But—but who said I wouldn’t like it, and how did they know?’”’ “Why, my sister said so, and I suppose Alec told her. The very first time I went to visit them they led me up to a big oil paint- ing they have of you and said, very solemnly and impressively, ‘This is Burke. He has ‘all the Trenlay fortune. He is the head of the family. You must not do. anything that would displease him.’ And I was awed. But I didn’t stay awed. I am 23 now, and I mean to do just as I choose.”’ Thomas Jefferson, when he finished the Declaration of Independence, could not have shaken his head with a more undaunted air. Burke Trenlay looked at his defiant sister-in- law with amused admiration. *‘My dear Teedie,”’ he said earnestly,.‘‘I.am glad to hear it, for I want you to believe that whatever you choose to do I shall endorse. If any one ever tells you again ‘that Burke wouldn’t like it, just you tell them that you know better, that he said he particularly wished you to do that very thing. So there!”’ and Burke tossed back his head—a big, well- shaped head and laughed heartily. ‘ I have always aap 7 ‘glowed down for the Hartford stop.

There’s my hand on it.” She looked hesitatingly at the broad paim held out to her and then slowly shook her head. “That isn’t all,’’ said Teedie. ‘“There’s Alec, you know. Alec is one of the finest fellows in the world, even if you don’t think so.”’ “But I do. Alec is my brother. he’s a splendid chap, and I have always thought so. I don’t allow any one to say anything ill of Alec to me, not even Ann.” “Then why t, | “The will?’’ he anticipated. “I was some- where in Syria when that happened. I have always felt very badly about that, as Alec will tell you. But father, you know, and Ann, thought differently. Good old Alec! You don’t know how much I have missed seeing him,’”’ and Burke Trenlay gazed out at the hurrying landscape. There was tenderness in his gaze, and sin- cerity. Teedie saw both. Then she, too, turned and stared unseeingly out of the car window. The Limited was rushing madly into the very heart of the pie-breakfast belt. The black silk poppy in Teedie’s hat was quivering with gentle expectancy. ‘“‘Alec thinks such a lot of you, too,” she said at length. “Does he?’’ said Burke eagerly. ‘“‘Tell me about him, how he is getting along, and all that.’’ There is nothing like a congenial topic for the rapid ripening of acquaintanceship. I think AS they sped Bostonward they definitely set- tled it between them that Alec was a very excellent fellow indeed. “It’s too bad,” said Teedie, a little quaver of sympathy in her tone, “that you can’t go to see him.”’ Abruptly Burke shot a glance of inquiry at her. Never before had the situation been framed so clearly for him. He could not go to see Alec? Why not, pray? Then there arose before him a vision of Ann, and he powed his head submissively. Yes. it was true. He had accepted as his own his sister’s attitude toward Alec and Alec’s wife. The habit of years had pre- vailed, for, ever since he and Alec had been motherless small boys Ann had been the domestic dictator. Alec’s breaking away had seemed daring, revolutionary. For himself, Burke had always been highly, content to be relieved of certain social responsibilities. Seldom had ke chafed under Ann’s severe rule. But now it was different. He felt that somehow his sister had been wretchedly unjust to Alec. He wished that the breach might be bridged. But how could it be done” Lifting a worried, uncertain look he found Teedie watching him. Before her long lashes could hide it he had caught a gleam of mis- chief in her brown eyes. Instantly a new understanding was awakened within him. How much nicer it would be if the person who was mistress in the old Trenlay mansion-— the one whose picture you will find in all the guide books—could be—-well, some one like’ Miss Teedie Page, for instance. The newly developed understanding be- came a revelation. Again he glanced at Tee- die, this time with that bashful shyness whose meaning is always so patent to feminine eyes. ‘Seeing that look, Teedie fixed her attention on the silver pencil with seeming indiffer- ence to him. But the black poppy on Teedie’s hat was above such small deceits. bobbing beckoningly. ’ “How long shall you be at Alec’s?” asked Burke irrelevantly. “Por the summer, I expect,’ and Teedie's tone indicated that it really did not matter, ‘Do you suppose,’’ ventured Burke hesi- tatingly, ‘‘that Alec would let me come to see him at this late day?’ “Q. I dare say that he would be just silly enough to welcome you with open arms.”’ “H-m-m!” said Burke reflectively, regard- ing her with puzzled interest. He was still wondering at this new mood of his perplexing sister-in-law when the en- gine shrieked warningly and the Limited Two minutes later the porter appeared with a tele- gram for Burke. It read thus: Carriage wheel smashed. Not hurt, but missed steamer. Do not understand your message. Will join you at Aunt Abbie’s to- night. ANN, With a grim smile he handed it over to Toedie. As she read it through her brown eyes glowed with appreciation. “You thought she would never get it?” He nodded a gloomy. assent. ‘‘And now?” suggested Teedie. Burke made a wry face. ‘‘Now it remains for me to explain to Ann who it was that I kissed by mistake.” Teedie’s graceful shoulders shrugged with wicked delight. “You can tell her how badly you felt when you found what you had done, you know.” “NG, iE '. . I couldn’t say that. I... you see, I don’t feel badly at all. I hope you don’t mind my saying it, Teedie, but I’m awfully glad I did make a mistake.” Where- upon Burke blushed. “Oo!” Teedie’s brown eyes demurely sought her lap. ‘‘Then perhaps you will tell that to your sister Ann when you see her tonight?” “I do not expect,” and there was heroic determination in Burke’s tone, ‘‘to see Ann tonight. have something more definite than that to tell her. It all depends upon Alec—and you.” (Copyright by The Bell Syndicate.) | SCIENCE EXPLAINS | ~~ POISON IN LIQUOR |? In the arguments for and against the new government order doubling the amount of poisonous wood alcohol to be used in denatur- ing alcohol for industrial use, neither side has emphasized the unanswerable scientific fact about the whole business, according to Fred- eric Damrau, M. D., in the April Popular Science Monthly. The fact, he says, is this: The reason Uncle Sam requires the use of wood alcohol as a denaturant, is that chem- istry thus far has been unable to discover a * less harmful way of preventing the conversion of alcohol needed by more than 200 important industries into a beverage fit to drink. “Wood alcohol has proved to. be the only known denaturant which bootleggers can’t “cook” entirely away.

8° ORR ele i Mia ae me * Sap hee ge ea os Alite Hy hen! auto By FELIX COTTEN. HREE hundred years ago, at the bare of Capitol Hill, representatives of an- other nation of men assembled in a senate which, far from degenerating into something resembling a menagerie-when- ever an important matter arose, was really a model of orderliness, dignity and fitting so- lemnity. Vice President Charles G. Dawes, who, it is well known, has advocated certain emenda- tions in the established rules of the present body, unquestionably would have found in demeanor and smooth movement of this an- cient senate his heart’s ideal, but it is un- likély that he would be able to ingraft its system upon the membership of the Senate over which he presides. The cracking of the gavel of the session just closed has melted into thin air, but when a nation of ancient red men held their senate ear the site of the present Peace monument here was no banging of a gavel. The Indian i a better arrangement, was by nature a better parliamentarian. Neither were there any filibusters in this ancient legislative body, and historical rec- ords indicate that, had one been attempted, a more effectual cloture than Mr. Dawes has yet dreamed of immediately would have been applied. The Indian was decisive in his coun- cils. He observed certain sound and simple rules, a breach of which would have amounted to sacrilege. Even had desks been provided in his legislative halls, it is highly improbable that the most impertinent chief or warrior would have attempted to throw his feet. upon one of them and munch an. apple during session. Centuries ago the section near Peace mon- ument, which is choked up on one side with Chinese and souvenir shops and runs into. ‘the Botanic gardens on the other was a beautiful valley, in the middle of which flowed a brook of pure, limpid water. It was here, according to a tradition handed down from. the earliest settlers of Maryland, that the mighty Algonquin nation of Indians had es- tablished their council lodge, which with them was guite comparable to our Senate. In fact, the council was of greater import to the In- lian than the entire legislative branch of our bvernment, for it was sufliciently comprehen- ive in their simple scheme of life to obviate he necessity of judicial and executive depart- ments. s . * * HE site of the council lodge was a general meeting place for Indians of this region, and in the spring great numbers of Indians visited this and the Eastern branch valleys to fish. They called it their “fishing ground.’’ Tradition has it that the attention of George Washington was turned toward Capitol Hill as a site for the Capitol by some one pointing out to him that at one time the place of coun- cil of the great Algonquin nation was located there. Early residents of Washington have left in their letters testimony of the surpassing beauty of Goose Creek valley—-the more pre- tentious name of Tiber being given the creek when it was found the Capitol was to be bcated on the Hill. The valley then was not filled with exotic trees, but the banks of the creek were edged with the simple American arrangement of ulip poplar and magnolia, and beneath these kreat majestic trees were the hawthorn and wild rose and other indigenous shrubs. At their feet wild violets grew and a hundred other varieties of native flowers. The vines of the wild grape added to their branches a luxurious foliage and in autumn dropped over their lower limbs in dark clusters of rich fruit. It is little wonder, therefore, that the Indian should have chosen so elysian a valley s a meeting place and should have located here his council fire. The council lodge was usually constructed of logs or poles, and was sometimes palisaded for protection. Imstead of by a bright light shining in a Capitol dqme, the fact that a council meeting was in progress was indi- cated by smoke curling upward from this rude log structure. However, the observer rould have assured himself that a council was h progress and not the telling of idle stories the useless recitation of some piece of an- pnt lore. Within the council lodge the chiefs and Warriors were seated in semicircles—just the arrangement they have in the Capitol. The great chief stood near the center of the lodge. The chiefs of the various tribes were seated in the front row and in the rows behind them the warriors were seated. They were attired im martial regalia and sacred insignia. The Fee, i pery Pea. . iat Ray 8, wg G See We AEMINISCENT OF THE DAYS OF THE “RED SENATE.” picture. flickering of the council fire against the logs, the brilliantly attired chiefs and warriors and the array of implements of war presented a scene at once solemn, picturesque and im- pressive. In these councils or legislative. assemblies all matters of:import were passed upon, all problems confronting the various tribes were threshed out, the decision to make war was reached, the destiny of a particular tribe was determined. . « * = ' f arene procedure was usually the passing of the calumet or ceremonial pipe, each chief and warrior taking a puff and then making a few words his statement on the matter in question if he had anything to say. Pre- viously the great chief had lighted the pipe which had been filled by the medicine man, had taken a-puff and presented the matter to be discussed. If any one present refused to smoke it was immediately concluded that his intentions were hostile. In titis arrange- ment the Indian hagl._a parliamentary system far superior to anything possible under Rob- ert’s rules. It made for harmony, unanimity and economy of time and of energy, and as- suredly would have put our Congress, as well as our citizens associations,.to shame. The Indian council meeting was not with- out its reporters and recording secretaries. They were the squaws who had the best CARRY SQUARE MEAL IN THEIR HAIR The savage Nuba tribesmen in the African Sudan have many strange ¢ustoms, but none stranger than that of carrying a generous supply of food around in their hair. Seen from a little distance, one of these black men seems to have a luxuriant crop of white, sau- sage-like curls, but a closer look shows these curls to be rolls of maize flour and butter formed around wisps of hair. When these savages go into the jungle to hunt they travel ‘“‘light’’—dressed only in a narrow strip of cloth about the thighs, a string of beads around the neck and a brace- let or two on the wrists. They have po pockets to carry food in, and they need both hands-free to throw the long, heavy spears with which they are so amazingly skillful. So the hunter mixes a big batch of dough and literally covers his head with the moist stuff. of these rolls of dough to a firm crust, leav- ing the inside soft and doughy. When the black man gets hungry, it is a simple process for him to pull one of the rolls from his kinky head and eat it as it is - or after baking it some more in a primitive oven. of hot stones. This coiffure seems to be about the only ; method of Sudan hairdressing that is prac- tical as well as decorative, and it is much more sanitary than some of the styles that The hot sun soon bakes the outside’ the women of the tribe look upon as the last word in cojffures. The most unsanitary of these styles is the plastering of the hair with a filthy, foul- smelling ‘‘pomade’’ and curling it in tight little knot balls. The Sudan belles find noth- ing disgusting about this. The ultra-fashionable women of the tribe get their hair permanently waved so that five long, black prongs stick up from the ‘middle of the head, from the forehead to the nape of the neck. Having the hair fixed like this is a long and expensive operation for which the native barbers charge a sheep or many fishhooks. In order not to mar the “beauty” of this strange coiffure, the women sleep with their necks resting in uncomfortable wooden racks that hold their heads off the ground. Another style that is popular is a close Shave on the front of the head, with the rest of the hair cut very short and shingled. The Sudan natives have no mirrors in which to look at the peculiar haircuts that their skillful and hard-working barbers give them, so they often pair up and get the same sort of clip or coiffure. When the African tonsorial artist has fin- ished work on two customers with their hair dressed exactly alike, all they have-to do is look at one another. Men as well as women often have their barbering done in duplicate. (Copyright, 1927, Johnson Features, Inc.) —_. - BOBBED HAIR HERE FOR 50 YEARS, By E. ELLICOTT. To bob or not to bob the hair is no longer a question in Washington society, for bobbed hair has become a custom and the most con- servative of womefi who have refrained from the temptation for several seasons have suc- umbed to the call of the shears this winter nd bobbed heads are blossoming by tens and hundreds where only a few of them were seen before, The diplomatic corps has adopted the cus- tom practically en masse and in one prom- inent embassy every woman of the hdusehold . from the Ambassador’s wife down has bobbed tier hair and great content reigns.’ It has been well determined that bobbed hair is effective for women of all ages. This fact, in addition to its undeniable comfort and general becomingness, is, no doubt, re- sponsible for its growth from the status of a fashion subject to the changing whim of the dame that governs the mode to an established custom, On the other hand, it is learned that the boyish bob is not generally favored. In the first place, it is mer: now and then that it is veally becoming.

Speaking of what ‘ he learned the other day, M. Emile said: “For more than 20 years I have been mak- ing trips to Paris and other European fashion centers for the purpose of keeping in touch with the latest development in my profession and business. “This year I visited Paris, Berlin, Vienna and London and other cities on the continent and I found short hair everywhefe. As a matter of -fact, short-haired ladies are no longer simply a fashion, they are the custom. “In Paris and in France generally I noticed an enormous increase in the number of ladies who wear their hair cut short. I do not hesitate to.state that there are in Europe today ten short-haired women to one .who wears her hair long. On the boulevards in Paris and the other cities, in the cafes, the theaters, and even in the villages the same condition of short-haired women prevails. Age and size seem no longer to be made an excuse for wearing the hair long—daughters, mothers, grandmothers, all have bobb It is really amusing to see the most conserva- tive of men encouraging their wives and the other feminine members of their households to have short hair. “In France many. of the farmers’ wives are wearing short hair. “I was surprised to find-in Hurope that so few were advocating the renee of long hair . to popular favor on for a year there ‘eae ese 5 : about long hair ct matope ate af to America spent a week there trying to find out if short hair was to stay or if it was to disappear with other discards of fashion.

I hit the old adopted Village of Los Angeles week before last and I was to publically act a fool for the natives at so much a head on acertain night, Now, my friend, Mr. William G. McAdoo, had framed up a dinner for some sort of a benefit, and of all the 365 nights of the year he had to go and have it the very night I am in their midst. Well, he called.me up and asked me if I wouldn’t come to the dinner and pester the diners vocally. Well,:I was about half sore at W. G. for having his dinner-at the same time I was making my first official ap- pearance as Mayor in the sister city, because it was him, and the very gang that I thought he would draw at his dinner, that I wanted as paying guests in my Rodeo. I especially wanted him there as I had garnered quite a little political scandal in my benefit tour of America. He is a favorite out there and I: needed all the local help I could get. Then when I found that we were sold out anyway, it dident make any differ- ence. Now this Dinner he was at the head of was a $100 a plate. (And just ordi- nary plates at that.) Just think of that one hundred bucks a plate, and Nothing in Your Glass.- Well,- it- sounded like night Club prices to’ me.. -Well, I had to appear at my own place of disturb- ance that night, but he made me promise that I would drop by early in the dinner that on account of me not having time enough to eat, I wouldent have to pay the $100. Well that offered novel possi- bilities to be at a $100 dinner and not have to pay for it. It was a charity to save young boys. I dident have the hundred to contribute,: but I offered to contribute Two Boys,.and if they could save them that’ I would willingly pay them more than a hundred‘ dollars a head, ora plate, either. e I AMia long time.getting at it but here is ‘the joke: * Naturally, I had to butt into thé tif@al to Speak, as I only had a short time: “Mr. McAdoo gave me a lovely ‘introduction and I started -in among what looked like very favorable conditions. . They all looked like they wanted to sorter laugh. But just as I started in, why. in comes the Waiters with the meatcourse. It was'what look- ed to me like *Squab. Well, they knew that that was “The Plate,’ that $100 Plate. Well,: they looked at me, and they looked at the squab, and-it looked ‘for a few seconds like I was going to get the break and receive the benefit of the doubt, and then the thought of the price hit ’em. Well, I saw in a glance I had lost the decision. You cant combat the fangs of hunger. I kinder thought at first. it was just because it was me speaking _that they turned to their tools and set in to operate on them squabs. But I tell you I don’t believe it was anything against me, or my poor attention-hold- ing abilities at all. I dont believe that night with those Democrats paying $100 for that poor little pitiful Bird of a pigeon—I don’t believe Mussolini or Bernard Shaw coulda held ’em. In fact, I don’t believe President Coolidge doing a double two-man talking.act with Borah could have kept those Los Angelono’s away from that Grub Stake that night. They was after food and not facts. And you can’t blame ’em, I tell you. At that price that little feathered beast would have taken apart and apportioned out .

Well at ten a leg thats $20 smackers just for squab’s legs. Then the wings will weigh out about the same, so that accounts for another $20, and a squab hasent got what you would call an awful wing spread at that. Then the body and contents which is at least half the squab, why we will give it say $50. Now, if you happen to draw one that has been reducing, why that little fowl is running you into a terrible lot of Jack. That brings the grand total up to ninety dollars and the only other place we cart place the sur- plus $10 is either on the neck or the Tail. eee OW there has been whole families brought up.on the neck of a chicken. That is where they are allowed to man- handle it. If they keep you strictly to knife and fork rules you can’t get much out of it. But I have never heard of children at even the second or third table subsisting entirely on Squab neck. Now the tail for about one bite offers to some people a mighty choice morsel. Its easier to handle, it requires prac- tically no acrobatics with either knife or fork, so I think the only fair way to do about this last $10 thats left is to ‘give the neck a shade the best of it. Its longer and comes first. So-lets be fair and give the neck $6 and the tail $4. Now I may be a half dollar or so off on that either way, but no more than that. So now that it is shown to you with Squabs tail running at four slugs a bite, here was people gnawing into real col- lateral. What I am getting at is you always learn something. I know now why they call ’em “After Dinner Speeches.” That’s because they can’t be made dur- ing a meal. I thought you could talk anytime, but you can’t. You got to get ‘em full first. In fact the best way to do _is to get ’em so full that they have to stay and listen. They can’t get out. Did you ever hear 200 knives and forks dissectitig “an equal number of Squabs on hard surface plates all at the same time? You see a Squab is elusive and there is plenty of stabs made at him that reach nothing only the sound- ‘ing board of the plate. I certainly want to thank Mr. McAdoo as hungry as I know he was. (For who ever saw a Democrat that wasent?) Why, he was polite enough to let. his lay till I had entirely give up the Ghost and gone over to my gathering inthe. Theater, where they had nothing to eat but their programs. He, as I say, was awful nice and very sympathetic, and there was two more there who I want to give credit too, Elinor Glynn and Morris Gest. They both realized what Ll had to compete with, and Miss Glynn was trying to listen above the din and roar of Near Silverwear pouncing on Near Dresden China. As I say, her and Mr. McAdoo: sit there trying to hear, and Morris dident bother me at all. He had perhaps had the same thing happen to him, and he was considerate. He took his squad up in his fingers, so he wouldent bother me at all. He was lis- tening, and laughing, and eating all to- gether. So I found out one thing. There is only one speech any speech- maker in the World can make to a hun- gry audience and‘ be heard, and that is “Dinner is ready. Come and get it, or we will throw it out!” (Copyright, 1927, the McNaught Syndicate, Inc.) HOW ANTIQUES INCREASE IN VALUE. Just as the good reporter has a ‘nose for news;”’ so has’a wide-awake antique dealer the hawk eye for rare pieces. A few years ago a man who dealt in antiques as a side line found four excellent Sheraton dining chairs in a private home, and bought them for $55. He put them in his car and drove home. He had no idea of: their worth, but thought he’d gotten them cheap and decided to keep them rather than sell. Then another dealer. called, ostensibly to ‘look over the stock. **You’ve got four chairs, haven’t you?” he finally asked. The other admitted it. Upon request they were shown, and the price quoted included a hundred per cent. profit.. The buyer didn’t hesitate. Later they were discovered in still another shop, and inquiry disclosed the next. price to have been $450. Finally they found a permanent home in the American wing of the Metropolitan Museum. The ultimate price, not disclosed, was prob- ably another redouble.—The Antiquarian. 1804 DOLLAR VERY RARE. Only twelve to eighteen of the 1804 United States silver dollars are known to exist. One theory in explanation of this rarity is that none of these was struck in 1804, but were made in or around 1840 when the agitation was on to resume the coinage of silver dollars. None was known until about this date, aud the -government had dies for these.—Mr. Wood, in Adventure Magazine, Ee DESIRABLE SPOT.

We were all down at the clubhouse on the river bank right. after school on Monday and held our regular meeting, both of our new members, Doody and Howard, being present. The thing we wanted to figure out -was how Howard’s pigeons disappeared. Every time he tried to send a message by a pigeon, something happened and the pigeon was never seen nor heard of again. So we talked it over. ‘‘Howard,” I said to him, “‘let’s try it again and watch. Have you got one more pigeon that is trained to fly up to our club- house?” “I’ve got a dozen,” answered Howard. “You probably didn’t know what I was doing, but I managed to train them while you fellows were in school. And when I train ’em, they work.” “Well,” I said, “you send another one, ‘then. Don’t have to send any message with it. Just fasten a:plain piece of, paper to it, s0 that we will know it’s the bird you sent. Then we will watch for it.” “Tt won’t work,’ he said; ‘‘There’s no use, It will just mean another pigeon gone.”’ ‘‘But.we will watch it all the way,’’ I said. ‘Took here! How far is it between your house and this clubhouse?”’ : ‘“‘About three miles, I guess.”’ ‘‘Well, then it’s easy. We ‘will, string out from here, and every quarter of a- mile one of us will:take up our stand and watch. Most of us have pocket telescopes. We will watch the whole way from your house upto here. You let the pigeon loose, and we will watch it all the way. And one of us will be bottnd to see what happens to it, if anything does happen.” “Tt’ll happen all right,’”’ said Howard, nod- ding; “but I’m willing to lose one more bird, anyway, if we will find out what becomes of it.” So we said we would try it out next day after school, because it was getting pretty late and pretty dark. ; On Tuesday we hurried down to the club- house, and I told the boys how we would work it. I‘told Perry Stokes to stay in the clubhouse and keep the windows open, so that-the pigeon could get in if it got through safely. Then the rest of us Went on, and about a quarter of.a mile up the cliff path I told Roy Dobel to stay and watch at that spot. He had his spyglass and took his place on the top of the cliff. Then we went on, leav- ing other boys at about even distances. Shadow Loomis took .the last stand, and I went on up to Howard’s house. He was in the yard, waiting for me. He had a pigeon in a wicker cage. : “I’ve put a plain bit of paper on it,” he said, “else it might not think it’s carrying a message. These birds are funny, that way. Once they get used ‘to something, they ex- pect it all the same each time you send ’em up. Else they might think you’re just turn- ing ’em lose for a fly, ‘and they’ll turn about in a little while and circle back to the lofts.”’ ‘‘All right,’’ I said, “if you’re ready, let’s fi 9» He took the pigeon out and sent it up. l had my pocket telescope and watched it as fas as I could see. It headed straight. up the river for the clubhouse, and when I saw it still on the wing a good distance away, I said: “Come on, Howard, we will follow up the — train now, and see what the other boys re- port.’”’ ; Shadow was the first one we picked up on our way back. ‘Pigeon passed here safely,’ he said. It was the same report from every boy along the line. When we got back to the clubhouse, the windows were all.closed. I shoved the door open, and there sat Perry Stokes, with a grin on his face, and pointing to the top of the cupboard, where sat the pigeon. | “It got through, all right,” he said. “I closed the windows quick, so’s it couldn’t get away again, else I thought you might not believe me,” = 1 P = : “a * iP tose Bt SBOP RS ea a re © peter’ Bae Peay, ot y ‘ Stee LR eee Re , ie - ta Pak ay a, , vs , ‘in his arms. ry ; i £ Pe “) ts 4 a - Bag ick ee ? ..P ik Peg Ny . he ~ is «! ae, ie BA i 4 > Pea wee ee Se | > By ROBERT FRANC SCHULKERS, “Well, that’s a surprise to me,” said Howard Swift. Going over to the cupboard he made a low sound between his teeth, and the pigeon came fluttering down and rested “I’m glad I didn’t lose this one, anyway. It’s one of my best pets.’’ “Well, now,” I said, “‘that proves that every pigeon you send up won’t disappear. I don’t see how they all got away, if you had ’em trained as well as this one.”’ “They were all trained good enough, don’t worry!’’ said Howard. ‘‘Bones got the others. He just wasn’t on the lookout today for some reason. Maybe he’ knew we were lined up and watching.” “How could Bones get them down, How- ard?’’ I demanded. “You know, old Judge Granbery laid down the law that there must be no more shooting on this river bank. And you yourself told me that Bones and his fellows are not shooting around here any more,”’ ‘“T know they aren’t,” said Howard. “‘They know enough not to cross Judge Granbery’s rules. Bones wont allow any of his pals to have a rifle any. more.”’ “Then how does he get your pigeons down?” asked Shadow Loomis. “They don’t land anywhere that he might trap them, do they?’’ : “Not my pigeons,’ answered Howard. ‘‘When I send my birds on .a trip, they go and don’t stop—anyway, not on such a short flight as this.’’ “Then there’s no chance of Bones to trap them,” said Shadow Loomis. “No,” said Howard. ‘But he gets them, just the same.”’ ‘How?’ : ‘ “That’s what I’d like to find out.” * * ” * On Wednesday we held our meeting as usual after school, but Howard did not show up. The boys held it against him, for they don’t like breaking of rules, and one rule is that we must attend meetings regularly un- less we have a good excuse. “And Howard will have a good excuse,”’ I told them. The next day we found it so. Howard came and said that he had discovered that Bones and his followers were going to hold a meeting down near Hobbs Ferry, and he sent a pigeon with.a message right away, telling us to come down. ‘“‘And I waited at the ferry for you until it got dark,’’ he said. ‘“‘Then I Knew that the pigeon did not get through.” e “It certainly didn’t,” I said. “TI think it’s strange,” said Shadow Loomis. “Well,’’ I told them, ‘‘I’m going to figure this thing out or know why I can’t. Howard, suppose you send another pigeon today. Just put a blank piece of paper on it. I’m going to watch my. chance to figure this thing out.”’ Howard went back right away. The other boys wahted to go along; but I said it would be best for them not to show themselves. The boy Bones must have scouts all along the river, and they pass the signal. along to one another somehow, just as soon as they see us coming. So I thought it would be best to let them think we were all staying in our clubhouse on this afternoon. . I waited until Howard had a good start, and then I slipped out and going around the back of the clubhouse, I followed the narrow path until I came to the back of the cliff, and then I went up. I shoved along, behind the new green bushes, until I had a good view of the surroundings for a mile either way. Then I took out my pocket telescope and sat down to wait. It was a half hour or so later when 1 - saw the little speck in the sky that told me the pigeon was on its way. I put my tele- scope to my eye and watched it. Yes, it was the pigeon, all right. There was some dust on the telescope, so I took out my handker- chief to wipe it off. When I looked up into the sky again the pigeon had disappeared. “Goodnight!’’ ‘I said to myself. ‘That happened quickly! Where in the world did it go?” I jumped up and ran ahead. It seemed to me that if the pigeon had fallen I could find it somewhere if I hurried on. lI-ran with all my might, leaping over the low bushes and shoving: excitedly through those that were high, and not minding the scratches— and all of a sudden I. stopped and looked down. Down on the river bank below the cliff a boy stood. He was a stranger to me, but I'knew he must belong to Bones.. He was just fastening the strings of a little black cloth hag, which he laid down on the rock beside him.

Barbra Ann’s Reward. ; ws (Honorable Mention.) Barbara Anh Avery lived in Bronxville, mastchester county, N. Y. She had been fail- _@ her’ subjects at school the last two ivisories, and needless to say her parents were very much upset over it. “What shall we do with her!” said her dis- tracted mother. “She just will not study.” “TI think Barbra Ann neéds some goal to aim for,” said her father. So what should the surprised Barbra Ann learn from her parents the next day but this: If she studied very hard until June and gradu- ated with her class from high school she would receive as a reward a trip to Europe. Of course Barbara Ann studied and, of course, shé graduated and then, true to his word, her father kept his part of the contract. On July 3, 1926, the Avery family set sail or European shores on the steamship Re- ublic, of the United States lines. Their first stop was Paris, where the art ited the Louvre, Eiffel tower, Notre. vee fall of the rest of Paris, including two ht clubs. They visited the battlefields out- »the city where, not many years back, American soldiers fought with the French and other allies in a cause of justice. In 1922 Barbra* Ann’s father was abroad and visited the Rheims. At that time the famous Cathe- dral of Rheims was in ruins and only two houses remained standing. That section of France was in devastation. Last summer the town of Rheims was thriving just like any other rapidly growing city, and it has a popu- lation of 80,000 today. They then traveled down through southern France into Italy and their first stop was Venice, the city of water. They were greatly thrilled with this unique city and left with reluctance for Nice, the winter water resort of Italy. They drove out to Monte Carlo along the shores of the beautiful Mediter- ranean. : Next came Switzerland, the country of beautiful scenery and fashionable summer resorts. An interesting experience came to the party when in this country. climbing the snow-peaked mountains when they became acquainted with a Swiss moun- taineer, who took them down the peaks on skiis and then helped them up the great ascent again. Up the Rhine to Cologne and then on to Berlin, where they spent four days. They enjoyed the Rhine and its picturesque old castles and villas. Amsterdam the great sea harbor of Holland was their next déstination. Then Brussels, where they spent most all of their money buying Brussels lace. Holland, Barbra Ann says, is just like a make-believe country. It always seems as though one were in a dream, when taking in the sights of the Dutch and their country. London seemed like home again. Of course the English brogue is a little different from ours, but nevertheless, they «speak English. Edinburgh, Scotland, was next. This city is built-in so-called declines. The central part of the city is an old castle, which is visible from every part of the town. The rest of the city descends to the sea levelin terraces. Our party set sail for the United States from Liverpool by way of the northern route. They saw a whale in action and had the experience — of being stranded on an iceburg for one night,. making the boat three days late in docking: at Quebec. a New York and home they reached at iast pfter an interesting trip, which I think was a wonderful reward for Barbra Ann’s hard work. DOROTHY WILLIAMS (age 14). 2536 Fourteenth street northwest, The Twins. (Winner of $1 Prize.) Once upon a time there were little twin brothers, one was named Jack and the other named Jim, They lived with their grand- mother. Jack would eat eggs, milk and tea for breakfast and Jim would eat eggs but would not drink milk and his grandmother told him if he drank milk like Jack that she would buy him a white goat. Now~Jim drinks as much milk as Jack. So Jim got the white goat and now both Jack and Jim drive the goat and have a good time. Jack and Jim are seven yéafs old. They love their grandma. i, er ae LOUISE LILLIE BATES (age 7). . Berwyn, Md. When Lillian Burns went to Sanfori school, she went out for’ vasketball.. 13, small and von dee .

Do you know the place from which they came? They were sent to the United States when Mrs. William Howard Taft was the first lady of the land from the government of Japan as an expression of friendship from that country to this one. In return-this country sent lovely dogwood trees, which now grow in Tokyo. Some of the nicest things countries do now is to interchange flowers, and at the Botanical garden in Washington you can see many plants, shrubs and trees from other countries. Familiarity with the flowers of other peoples helps to make for international friendliness. Our own lovely dogwood, which beautifies the roads and woods around Washington at this time of the year, is ,well worth visiting. I hope no reader of this page will break off the dogwood boughs, because they quickly die and deprive the woods of this dainty rai- ment of spring. It is really cruel to break off the dogwood and then throw it away because it is withered. 3 Washington is really a very beautiful city, and all the boys and girls here, as well as men and women, should take pride in its beauty. We have many wonderful buildings in the city from an architectural and classical view- point. It would be lots of fun to study them and compare them to the pictures of classic buildings of ancient Greece and Rome, which we find out about in the histories and books we may draw from the public libraries of the city. It is really good sport to learn about the various schools and periods of architecture and be able to look at a building and decide whether it is good or bad from an artistic viewpoint and to be able to Know just why it excéls or why it fails to redch the stand- ard of beauty in building which has been handed down through the agés. In the early days when this country was very young the question was brought up as to just what type of architecture was to be adopted as American. Thomas. Jefferson, who wrote the Declaration of Independence, also wrote another declaration of high stand- ards for the future when he was one of the chief leaders iin the movement to insure the classic and beautiful ideals of buildings for this country. If you are lucky -enough to motor through Virginia this summer your parents will perhaps point out to you Monti- cello, the home of Jefferson, at Charlottes- ville, and the University of Virginia, both beautiful colonial buildings of classic lines. You know that the men who founded and planned this city must have had real vision. Can you think of any better site for the Capi- tol building than the place where it stands. As spon as school is out we hope The Post — Boys and Girls will go about seeing the sights in Washington, for they will be well repaid. In the meantime they can learn of the archi- tecture and history of the buildings so they will be able to “‘sightsee”’ to the best possible advantage. Parents come with their children from other cities to see Washington at great expense. Yét there are children and adults here, too, who have lived hére all their lives and never gone out to view the sights many others come so far to see. E7DITOR POST BOYS’ AND GIRLS’ PAGE. APRIL FOOL : rae (Winner of $1 Prize.) It was the thirty-first of March. Teddy, Jim and Bill met in Teddy Orcutt’s back- yard to make plans for celebrating April Fool’s day. After planning several of the usual jokes boys are fond of playing, the ‘‘gang’’ set out for the playgrounds. S Before they had gone a block, however, two men emerged from an alley, and walked just ahead of the imaginative boys. Inspired by such remarks as “The bank— 11:30—Then a train’ for New York,” the boys ran to the police station. After inform- ing the unsuspecting chief that the bank, as there was just one in that small town, was to. be robbed at 11:30 that night, the boys , ran home to await the appointed hour. in two weeks, between the freshmen first and the freshmen of a nearby high school, East- gate. In a faint hope of playing, Lily prac- ticed up. j At last the day came, and a crowd had gathered in big Sanford gym. Four. subs in uniform, were ready'to play at a minutes notice, and Lily decided to make herself the ri 3 ; | (Finally the whistle blew, the jumping cen- ters stood ready, the ball went up in the air, came down and was slapped in the direction of the Eastgate forwards. Their side center jumped, caught it and tossed it to her for- ward. A long shot, a swishing of the net, the whistle blew and Bastgate had scored two points. Inside of two minutes the score had been raised to 5-0. | “Jump!” yelled a Sanford guard to her center, as they stood waiting. The center took heart and jumped high. The ball was hit dn the direction of .the Sanford side cen- ter. .A toss to a forward, who dropped the ball.. “The other forward picked it ‘up, and ‘aim, shot it into the basket! for Sanford let out a cheer. ove. was repeated. The for- umbled the ball.. She made an } and the ball bounced off. An ste rd caught it and shot it to her forward at the other end of the gym. An- other basket! At the end of the half the score was 15-3, favor of Eastgate. Tre freshman captain of Sanford was wor- ed. Her eye ierce fei" overguarded. Just before 11:30, the three mischievous boys hid near the rear entrance of the building. Imagine their surprise when two, dark, sinister forms stealthily crept to the door and forced it open. A surprise was also in store for the men, for they had barely entered the bank, en the lights were turned on and they were seized by police. The boys entered, but were sent home and told to return to the police station in the morning. The amazed youths learned that the two captives were robbers, and a reward of $1,000 was out for their capture. When each’ received his share of the amount thé “gang’’ agreed that this was the most agreeable joke ever played on them. HIILDA A. ZWILLINGER (age 14.) 1020 Potomac avenue southeast. an ‘A Musical Education. “* (Honorable Mention.) 5 Wouldn’t it be a wonderful thing for the good old U. S. A. to urge every child to have a musical éducation? A consistent flare of drummers, buglers, saxophonists, Mary Gar- detis and what-have-you? Sweet music to the ears! Well—not exactly at first—but we’ll get there by and by! There really must be something in back of that slogan: “A Musicil Hducation for Every Child.” I am convinced that there is. (That is if the ‘Willie, go practice on the xylo- phone” which is so audible to the ear if you pass an open window on any “sunny(?)” afternoon is truly executed. Indeed, when the heads of various schools realize that a musical education is so valuable to the child of today that they are having musical courses taught on a par with. the other academic subjécts in our schools, there ‘really is something in back of it! ‘Music, the very word theans sunshine and happiness! Nothing succeeds in developing moods and emotions more rapidly than this. It alone is an inspiration to the child. Music develops, in the minds of unmatured children, a love of the better things of life. In many instances music has so inspired children that they onward toward, careers in art d literature—and y dare say that every portunities that -the stage offers to those musically inclined. I merely offer these points to show what rewards may be de- rived from the ‘‘education musical.” None of the opportunitiés that present themselves to us require a great amount of work to be perfected. Truly,.it.is not work to most of us mortals, but mere play! RAYMOND GERBER. 110 S. Royal street, Alexandria, Va.

EROS STS SES Mere ees oy ies shes a fy Ree see Advertisers talk much about “reader confidence” and its bearing on the possible results to be obtained by the advertising investment. The Philadelphia Inquirer has left nothing undone to give those words added weight. Its news is gathered from unlimited sources—its editorial staff boasts brilliant men—its special features are the best obtainable. And, in addition, all advertising accepted must be clean and beyond suspicion. In short, a vast amount of money, time and energy has been expended in the effort to publish the finest possible newspaper. No stronger proof of its success could be offered than its leadership in the Pennsylvania morning field in circulation, advertising “oF DORAN Y. ‘GU ARA TE > For Years The Philadelphia Inquirer has absolutely AN ‘ guaranteed that every morning in the year, before ‘breakfast is served over 75% of Philadelphia’s worthwhile homes have received their t copies of The Philadelphia Inquirer from the hands of never-failing carriers. = ; —— ® . - ——— v5 z « q, er ee oe aa Th vn TE ° ry , ~ by ty re ty Fi P » “yy re & X A, - * tui ary Z ft eth a s “—~ x - 4 wos aay. . . a) 7 “< . 4 Saty hS : RS os i a
