le -—ANTHORITES SEWZE. PUN AT RESIDENCE OF EDWARD MILES Eight-Shot Weapon Is Found, Containing Two Unex- ploded Shells. MINISTER TO PREACH MILLS MURDER SERMON Baltimore Detective Drops In- quiry; Successor to Use Scientific Methods. Robert Peter, jr., State’s attorney of Montgomery County, yesterday, when confronted with facts, admitted that the investigators in the mysterious slaying of Edward Mills, farmer of Travilah, had seized an automatic .32- caliber pistol at the home of Edward Miles, older brother of Clarence and Clinton Miles, jail breakers de luxe, According to the authorities the gun was found in a trunk at the Miles home near Travilah, when a searching party went there several days ago. Miles was questioned later at the State’s attor- ney’s office and declared that he had taken the weapon from his brother Clinton because he was afraid that he would get into trouble. State’s Attorney Peter said that the weapon and the two unexploded shells ould be turned over to the Bureau of tandards today. Bought Gun, Clinton Miles, who, with his brother, had successfully broken out of the Marlboro jail and who had been frus- trated in their attempt Saturday to es- cape from the Rockville jail where they are now held, declared that he bought the automatic in Prince Georges County several months ago. Clarence Miles, youngest of the brothers, the only eye witness to the slaying of Mills, which occurred at sunrise nine days ago, told the au- thorities that the slayer fired five shots. An automatic pistol was used by the murderer. This version was accepted by the investigators, especially after only five shells were found at the scene of the crime. Investigation yesterday, however, proved conclusively that six shots had been fired by the killer. One shot passed through the felt hat worn by Mills, another passed through his chest, another entered the base of the brane, one crashed through the neck and two went clear through his left arm. Miles Says. Young Woman Disappeared. It was learned yesterday that .when Edward Miles was taken to the State’s attorney’s offce for questioning, a young woman of the Travilah district disappeared. The investigators imme- diately instituted search for her, but so far have been unable to discover her whereabouts. State’s Attorney Peter last night de- clared that the ammunition taken from the automatic seized at the Miles’ resi- dence was not of the same manufac- ture as that used by the killer. He based his opinion, he said, on what he learned from an arms expert. A sensational sermon bearing on the murder of Mills will be preached by the Rev. H. H. Nicoll, pastor of the Travilah Baptist Church, it was learn- ed at Rockville last night. May “Blow Lid Off.” According to the advance notices, the Rev. Mr. Nicoll plans to “blow the lid . off” the mystery. His church is about two miles from Hunting Hill, where sMills was murdered. The minister, who . has been an outstanding figure in the investigation, numbered the murdered man among his flock, and has been @ sort of liaison officer between Mrs. Bertha Mills and the investigators. It is understood that the Rev. Mr. Nicoll will demand of his flock infor- mation that will lead to the solution of the mysterious slaying. The citizen- ry of the Travilah section are under- stood to have expressed fear that if information is furnished the authori- ties that may lead to the arrest of the slayer, that they will be killed and their homes burned. The Rev. Mr. Nicoll will try and impress upon them that it is far better to have their homes burned than to shield a murderer. The pastor caused a mild sensation at the funeral services of the slain man when he demanded an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, declaring that he believed in the old law. Mother Demands Inquiry.

The Jones boy, who was 18 years old, and who had been virtually adopted by Ernest Briggs, of the Travilah section, was found in the kitchen of the Briggs home shot to death. The body was dis- covered by Mr. Briggs when he returned from a visit to a nearby farmer. Following an investigation by the authorities, a certificate of death by » Buicide was issued. With the body was found a note beside it, which read:: “I have not lived right. I can not * face the world any longer, so thought I would die. Good-bye.

James Manning, Baltimore de- tective, who for nine days was in charge of the investigation of the mur- der, yesterday took off his handcuffs and hobbles and returned to Baltimore. Manning, though he was unable to solve the mystery, learned many new angles in the questioning of suspects and witnosses while at Rockville, which are probably not in the police manual at Baltimore, on how to run a mur- derer to earth. Science to Be Utilized. Science will be substituted for routine police methods, Kennedy said last night. Following out the methods of his detective story mamesake, Craig Kennedy, the “scientific sluth,” the Bal- timore man plans to concentrate his efforts on the confession note that the murderer pinned to Mills’ shirt after firing five bullets in his body. Kennedy, a keen and alert individual, said he had no intention of running down wild rumors, and running around the countryside interviewing farmers and others. His first aim, he said, would be to establish the owner of the typewriter on which the confession note was written. Hence his first move was to send photostatic copies of the note to the Bureau of Standards, in the hope that the experts there could give him some valuable information about the type of machine that was used. Spelling Held Deliberate. Persons who have seen the note are convinced that a man having at least a high school education wrote it. An ignorant man, they feel, could hardly have known some of the words that appear in the note, as, for example: Pacified, lust, secure, realizing and in- strument. Words that were misspelled, such as “throwed” and “knowed,” they believe, were deliberately misspelled. Kennedy also has discovered an im- print on the confession note that may prove something. This imprint would indicate that the murderer wrote an- other letter on top of the confession note. Frank Polan, young musician, who was taken into custody in Rockville several days ago and questioned in re- gard to the murder and to an attack made by a “mad musician” on a Wash- ington girl, was transferred to Gallinger Hospital yesterday. Polan, who has been at the Rockville jail, was taken to the hospital by Deputy Sheriff Charles Orme, ang will be held for observation as to his mental condition. FIELD DAY IS HELD BY COLORED ELKS Parade Precedes Exercises by Lodges at American League Park. Joint field day exercises under aus- pices of the Columbia and Morning Star Lodges of colored Elks were held yesterday at the American League Park, following a parade from the Co- lumbia. headquarters, 301 Rhode Island avenue. The national guard unit, Com- pany A, 372d Infantry, commanded by Capt. A. C. Newman, participated. Other uniform ranks included rep- resentatives from all colored fraternal associations, the Knights Templar Patriarchies of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, the Knights of Jerusa- lem, Knights of Pythias, Knights of St. John and drill teams of both Elk lodges. A ball game between Morning Star and Columbia lodges was won by the former, 12 to 2. Other track and field events included dashes, relay races and competitive drills between patriarchies of Odd Fellows and drill teams of women of Columbia and Forrest Tem- ples of Elks. Only 91 Babies Died of intestinal troubles during the past year: According to the District Health Officer, with 9,306 babies born in the District of Columbia during the year ending June 30, 1927, only 91 died of intestinal troubles within that time, less than one per cent.

Who have paid for the above bulletin (legal notice) Annapolis and Capital Join To Open New Defense Road Officials and Civic Leaders Attend Ceremonies That Dedicate Highway at Priests Bridge—Naval Officers Participate—Dougherty Speaks. (By Staff Correspondent.) | Annapolis, Md., July 16—With a de- tachment of marines, sailors and sol- diers standing in formation, the dedi- cation exercises formally opening the Defense Highway linking the two his- torical capitals, Annapolis and Wash- ington, were held yesterday afternoon at Priests Bridge, at the junction of the Crane Highway. Prominent speakers paid tribute to the late Caleb C. Magruder, of Upper Marlboro, whose determined singleness of purpose and enthusiasm made pos- sible the construction of the highway. Among those who spoke were Hampton Magruder, son of the sponsor of the road who was master of ceremonies; John N. Mackall, chairman Maryland State road commission; District Com- missioner Proctor L. Dougherty, Rear Admiral John Halligan, of the Navy, who represented Secretary Hoover, and former Gov. Emerson C. Harrington, of Maryland. With the entire audience standing, Miss Gretchen Hood, soprano, sang “Maryland, My Maryland.” The ceremonies, held in a shady glen hehind the pigeon house, at Priests Bridge, were closed with the soprano singing “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Forming in a long line, the caravan of motors then proceeded to Annapolis, where the State capital was decorated with flags along the route to Carvel Hall. The delegations then proceeded to the United States Naval Academy grounds, where a concert was given by the Naval Academy Band, directed by Assistant Leader W. R. Sima. The concert over, the party returned to Carvel Hall, where the 300 guests had a Maryland chicken dinner, and three-minute speeches were made by Edwin C. Graham, president of the Washington Board of Trade; Martin A. Leese, president of the Washington Chamber of Commerce, and Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan, president of the Mer- chants and Manufacturers Association. For Maryland, the response was made by Representative Stephen W. Gam- brill, Mayor Charles W. Smith of An- napolis and James A. Walton, also of Annapolis, who was instrumental in obtaining the funds enabling the De- fense Highway to be built before State funds were available. A fireworks dis- play, which illuminated the water front, was held from 8 to 9 o’clock. Returning to the St. John’s College gymnasium, the National Defense High- way dedication ball was held until 11:30 o’clock. Speaking at the ceremonies at Priest’s Bridge, Hampton Magruder declared that the occasion was eminently fit- ting, as it was on March 21, 1791, that George Washington left Philadelphia for a tour of the Southern States, and followed from Annapolis to Washington the old stage road, which is practi- cally the same route followed today by the Defense Highway, with the exception of a few cuts. He described how the bill creating the artery was introduced in = the Maryland Legislature by Senator Frank Duvall, of Anne Arundel County, and the signing of the measure by Gov. Harrington on April 18, 1916. Magru- der expressed deep regret that his father, who worked so Zealously for the highway, passed away before he was to realize his life’s ambition. Whole-hearted cooperation of the two counties, Anne Arundel and Prince Georges, were also responsible for the highway. Mr. Mackali, chairman of the roads commission, in a brief address, told how the road was built and paid trib- ute to Magruder, whose enthusiasms and determined purpose were responsi- ble for obtaining sufficient sentiment for the construction of the road. He stated through prompt work on the part of Mr. Walton, in obtaining the necessary finances, the road was com- pleted a year ahead of time. Representing the District, Commis- sioner Dougherty complimented the of- ficials of Maryland in constructing the road and asserted the Defense Highway was well named, running through country replete with historical inter- est. He then described how the first white settlers settled in Annapolis in 1650 to find religious toleration, and how the capital of this State was moved in 1694 from St. Marys to this city. The Commissioner then cited the Bat- tle of Bladensburg, during the War of 1812, and the burning of the Na- tional Capitol by the British. He Sean his address to a close, say- ng: “This new road connects two of the most important capitals, and will bring the people of Maryland and the Dis- trict of Columbia in closer harmony with each other and to their mutual advantage as years go on.” Dwelling on the importance of the highway in the event of National de- fense, Admiral Halligan declared that it particularly benefitted the Navy, being a short connecting link between the two most important shore activi- ties of the service—the Naval Academy, where officers are made, and the Navy Department, where the affairs of the Navy are administered. The naval offi- cer declared it was also fitting that Admiral Edward W. Eberle was present, as he had been superintendent of the Naval Academy, and chief of naval ‘op- erations. | Gov. Harrington, who signed the bill while he was in office, stated the road was held up during the World War, : La but as soon as possible thereafter con- struction went forward. “This highway is dedicated to public service,” said he, “and not only is it a direct road to Washington and Annapolis, but it brings the tidewater counties of the Maryland Eastern Shore closer, with its many advantages of seashore and agriculture. The road will stimulate increasing trade with the | The farmers of the | Eastern Shore already have a healthy | | tioning Willis, the suspect revealed the National Capital. market in the District.” In the midst of the ceremonies at the bridge, a brief shower fell, most of the audience scurried shelter beneath the trees. and sailors stood for A little furore rickety bench collapsed with several ladies. feet and no one was hurt. Representatives of both cities ar- ranged the ceremonies. Those from Washington, in addition to the offi- cial guests, were the Board of Trade, Chamber of Commerce, Merchants and Manufacturers Association, Rotary Club, American Automobile Association and Women's City Club. They met at the District Building at 1:30 o’clock, where special buses met them to bring them to Priest’s Bridge. Annapolis was represented by a joint citizens com- mittee, the Rotary Club, and other organizations. In the brief addressses following the dinner at Carvel Hall Toastmaster Ridgeley P. Melvin introduced Mayor Smith, who welcomed the delegates to Annapolis and invited them at all times to enjoy the seashores and waters ad- jacent to the city. He was followed by Representative Gambrill, who told of his efforts in Congress at last session to get a bill through to widen the high- way at a cost of $1,000,000. Speaking in behalf of the District, Mr. Graham stated he has maintained a summer home on Chesapeake Bay for 30 years, and declared that Washing- tonians do appreciate Annapolis and its many advantages, but declared steps should be taken at both ends of the highway to iliminate traffic congestion leading into the cities. He predicted the road would be widened i nthe fu- ture to a 50-foot boulevard, and in time would be one continuous street between the two cities. The new road was declared to be the best invesment of $1,000,000 ever ex- pended, by Mr. Leese. He asserted the road would shortly pay for itself by large dividends in busines enterprise between the two cities. Stanley Horner spoke of the impor- tance of good roads not only to the mctorist, but to the community as well, and asserted the automobile has brought out a new conception of highway build- ing. He, too, predicted that the road would pay for itself 100 percent. Plot to Seize Sile Causes 20 Arrests The unsuccessful attempt to seize President Sile of Bolivia during the early hours of July 14 was reported to the State Department yesterday:-by the American Legation at La Paz. The re- port said that police surprised and cap- tured 20 persons involved in the revo- lutionary plot against the government. One group was said to be led by Dr. Jose Villaneuva, deposed as president in 1925, and another group, said to be communistic and connected with Vil- laneuva, was led by Gustav Navarro, well-known Communist. Both leaders were arrested. The intention was t6 seize the government palace and Presi- dent Sile during festivities scheduled for July 14. The report to the State Department said that the government was fully aware of the plot and that no disturbance took place in appre- hending the revolutionists; None of the Bolivian army officers were in- volved. The army generally is report- ed to be loyal to President Sile and | the government. Pueyrredon Praises Service of Airmail (Associated Press.) Ambassador Pueyrredon, of Argentina, has informed Postmaster General New that he was converted into an enthusi- astic advocate of air mail during his recent transcontinental trip. Experiences in. expediting diplomatic correspondence by use of air mail be- tween the West Coast and East Coast are to be embodied by Mr. Pueyrredon into a report to his government, which will urge establishment of similar lines to link the capitals of Argentine states. When he was in California, he said, “I would receive a telegram informing me that embassy mail had been posted by air. Within 35 hours it would be in my hands, never failing.” FIRE RECORD. 1:56 a. m.—First and Seaton streets north- east; tool shed. 7:23 a. m.—Eighth and East Capitol streets: street car. ° ; 1:42 p. m.—Seventeenth and G streets north. | : p. west; automobile, :38 p. m.—514 Tenth street northwest; can of varnish. 5: - m.—New Jersey gvenue and M street ‘ay of larcenies which were reported and | The soldiers | in formation, how- | ever, and had to take a little wetting. | was created when a) They were assisted to their) “Ul p northwest; street car conduit. 5:12 p. m.—8118 Fourteenth street north- west; ammonia tan, * 3 ee “ +, ee FP rea Wg) mh e ¥ - Oe ab ’ " OF UPTOWN GROCERY NETS GUNMEN S00 Epiphany Church Looted of Two Chalices and Wine; Poor-Box Yields $4. 200-POUND SAFE STOLEN _ FROM NORTHEAST STORE 25 Larcenies Are Reported by Evening to Police, Who Arrest One Suspect. Sauntering into an Atlantic & Pacific grocery at 1813 Ontario place north- west yesterday afternoon, two negro robbers, with leveled revolvers, held the manager, a clerk and two women patrons at bay while they looted the cash register of $50. They escaped in an automobile driven by a negro. A short time later detectives arrested a suspect. The bold daylight holdup climaxed a to police and included the looting of a church, homes and stores. Mrs. R. B. Branhan, of the Clifton Terrace Apartments, and Mrs. J. A. Barringer, of the apartment house at 2801 Adams Mill road northwest, were in the store when the negroes entered and with brandished weapons ordered them and George Willett, the manager, and H. R. Johnson, the clerk, to make no outcry. While one held them at bay, the other looted the cash register. Detectives Hurry to Scene. A few moments after the report had sent Tenth Precinct police and Detective Frank Varney, of headquarters, to the scene, a janitor of a nearby apartment house telephoned police and informed them of three suspicious appearing col- ored men who were idling in the vi- cinity. Detectives Joseph Waldron, Jake Wolfe, Thomas Sweeney, John Fowler and Clement Cox went to the scene. The squad cruised the neighborhood | for half an hour and finally located | three men in an automobile, which they overtook at Seventh and M streets northwest. Thomas Willis, colored, 34 years old, 2512 P street northwest, was taken into custody for investigation as the driver of the car, which answered to the description of the car reported by the janitor, police say. After a thorough search of the auto-| mobile, police located a large hunting knife, $1.50 in pennies, dimes and nickles and’ a sack cloth bearing the label of a California bank. After ques- identity of two men, who, police say, accompanied him. A search for the) men was instituted late last night. Two chalices, two quarts of wine, an electric fan, tools, a quantity of linen and $4 in cash from a poor box were stolen from the Epiphany Episcopal Church, G street between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets northwest. The robbery was discovered yesterday morn- ing by William C. Johnson, treasurer of the church. Carry Off 200-pound Safe. Breaking into a Sanitary Grocery Store, at 3511 Twelfth street northeast, burglars made off with a 200-pound safe, containing approximately $180. The other larceny reports, number- ing 23 up to 6 o’clock last night, dealt with the thefts of store supplies, cloth- ing, jewelry, automobiles and automo- bile accessories. Susie B. Green, of 1818 Corcoran street southwest, reported to the police that while she was in a five and ten cent store on Seventh street about noon yesterday, a colored man snatched her purse off her arm and ran from the store. The bag contained $31, she said. my ¢ .

OLD POETIC FORMS OF HEBREW STRESSED Ancient Jews Thought in ‘Blocks,’ Says Editor; Hence Difficulties. Chicazo antiat , July 16 (A.P.).—The Jew of lity thought in “blocks,” and be- cause that present-day scholars found it difficult to translate the King James Bible into modern English. “They conceived things in a large @rea, whereas the modern thinker thinks of single things,” says Dr. J. M. Powis Smith, of the University of Chi- cago, editor of a modernized be published by the ur‘versity. There also were handicaps in the Jew's verbosity and the replacement of | words now obsolete. “The King James Bible is not clear to the average reader of the present,” Dr. Smith asserted. “There are no ‘thees’ and ‘thous’ in modern English *‘Lade’ meant ‘load’ in the King James Bible, and ‘vinegar’ referred to wines and liquors.” Much of the Bible which passed for prose really is poetry, he added. This the latest translators have attempted to preserve of Gives Text in Poetic Form.

The King James version translates this passage: “When Leah saw that bearing, she took Zilpah, gave her Jacob to wife. “And dZilpah, Leah's Jacob a second son. “And Leah said, a troop cometn; she called his name Gad.” The American translation gives a dis- tinctly varied interpretation: “When Leah discovered that she had stopped bearing children, she took her maid Zilpah and gave her to Jacob in marriage. Zilpah, Leah's maid, bore Jacob a son, whereupon Leah said: ‘*How lucky!’ “So she called his tvrikine As TrIRINE modern Englis she had left her maid, and maid, bare and name Gad (luck).” Beginning of Genesis. The classic example of concise writ- ing held up before young penmen— the description of the creation of the world in 10 words—becomes 49 ‘words in a compound sentence in the Ameri- | can translation. The 49 words, how- ever, cover the same ground 2s the first four verses of the King James version. The first sentence of the older ver- sion is: “In the begi nning God created the heaven and the earth.” The new translation is: “When God began to create the heavens and the earth, the earth being a desolate waste with darkness covering the abyss and the spirit of God hovering over the waters, then God said “Let there be light!’ ‘And there was light; saw that the light was good.” The new version follows the American translation of the New Tes- tament, completed four years ago by Prof. Edgar J.

ANTENNA TORN AWAY, SMITH AND BRONTE SAY Correction in Message They Were Down in Sea Was Prevented. (Associated Press.) A “friendly warning” to future trans- oceanic fliers to exercise the greatest care against giving erroneous informa- tion when they are in distress was given yesterday by Secretary Wilbur. “This is a serious matter,” the Sec- retary said, commenting upon the dis- tress call sent out Friday by Ernest L. Smith and Emery Bronte, transpacific fliers, while they were 500 miles from the Hawaiian Islands. “I do not ,want to be in a position of rebuking fhe men who made such a gallant flight,” he added, “but it is highly important that men should realize they are imperiling future fliers when they give what amounts to er- roneous information.” After the City of Oakland had sent a message that it was landing in the water, he said, the Navy dispatched a number of craft to their rescue while several Pacific liners diverged from their course to join in the search, and this was “an even more serious matter for passenger liners than it is for our own ships.” He added, however, that “We are de- lighted that these men got through and landed safely.” Smith Voices Regret. Honolulu, T. H., July 16 (A. P.).— Regret that they had given the im- pression that they had landed in the sea yesterday was expressed today by Ernest L. Smith and Emory B.

Smith said he realized that by send- ing out frantic S O §S calls early yes- terday morning and then stopping them abruptly they had created the impression that they had been’ forced down in the water some hundreds of miles from the island group. But, he explained, the radio on their monoplane went out of commission just at that time and all efforts to fix it were un- availing. “The radio went wrong just at the wrong time,” the pilot said. “Bronte tried desperately to fix it because we wanted everyone to know that we were all right, but it couldn’t be done. “We were absolutely cut off from »the rest of the world when the radio broke down. We were sorry that caused everyone to worry, but at time we sent out our S O 5S calls, looked like we'd have to land.” Bronte explained that while still some we it ¥ A wane - ™~ ” DAY.

Leviathan, July 16 (A.P.).— Passengers America-bound made a gala night with a dinner and a dance in honor of America’s heroic aviators, Commander Byrd, Clarence Chamber- lin,, Noville, Acosta and Balchen. With true gallantry, Thea Rasche, the am- bitious fraulein, was included in the passengers’ acclaim. United States Senator Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana, in the only speech of, the evening, extolled the aviators. He declared that aviaton’s triumph proved that heroes could be recognized in times of peace better than in times of war, because their deeds were con- structive achievements, instead of de- structive, and time would prove that what had been so recently don? was a genuine contribution to the peace of the world. At the dinner original verses were sung which paid tribute to the avia- tors. Miss Hope Hampton, the Ameri- can actress, sang, “You’re Heroes of the Air,” composed by Jimmy McHugh for the occasion. A genuine demonstration greeted the solo, after which “Hallelu- jah Up to Date,” was sung by Miss Charme Seeds, likewise written for the event, was sung by the diners, further praising the heroes. Chorus of Praise. The chorus of McHugh’s lyric ran: *‘Are we proud of you? You're the he Leaving loved foam, the heroes of the air.

MORE MEN ARE INDICTED Birmingham, Ala., July 16 (AP.).— The flogging of a 60-year-old invalid recently by a band of masked men was made known today by the circuit solici- tor’s office at Roanoke, Ala., while in- vestigations were in progress in other recent flogging cases in the State. Burns Parker, deputy solicitor, made public the report of Lon Royston, 60 years old, who said he had been wrong- fully accused of mistreating his wife and struck more than 50 times with a whip. Mrs. Royston corroborated her aged husband’s statement that he had “never raised his hand” against her. Parker said the old man had been “hor- ribly beaten.” Three indictments were reported re- turned by a Jefferson County grand jury here today in the Pearl Boggs- Hugh McSweeney flogging, and reports of a series of whippings in Randolph County were being investigated at Montgomery.

RA A A ERRNO ES NS — ee WOMAN SHOT DEAD BY ANOTHER; O-YEAR FEUD CALLED CAUSE Lawyer’s Widow Kills Former Client in an Apartment House Elevator. Special to The Washington Post. New York, July 16.—A quarrel of five year’s standing between two women tenants of a fashionable apartment house on St. Nicholas térrace, on the bluff above the Polo Grounds, was set- tled today when they met in the apart- ment house elevafor and one of them calmly shot and killed the other. The women on whom hate brought tragedy had lived in the building, one in an apartment directly above the other, for ten years. The woman slain was Mrs. Mary Moore, 43, wife of James Moore, employe of the city finance de- partment and well known in Demo- cratic political circles. Two bulets were fired into her body at close range by Mrs. Catherine Barrett, 44, widow of the late Anthony Barrett, an assistant corporation counsel. After the shooting, and with Mrs, Moore dying in the arms of Harry Sweeney, elevator operator, Mrs. Ben- nett went back to her apartment, changed her dress and awaited the ar- rival of the police. Many Reasons, She Says. When four detectives reached her door, Mrs. Barrett invited them in and said: “Yes, I did it, and I had many reasons. I am ready to go. Here is the gun. I have a permit to carry it. I haven’t emptied it. Even the three discharged cartridges have not been ejected.” Assistant District Attorney Frank Marra questioned her for an hour be- fore she was taken from her home to a cell. Mr. and Mrs. Moore planned to start today for a month’s vacation in the White Mountains. Her husband left home after 9 o'clock, telling her he would meet her at 11 a. m. She gathered her silverware and jewelry, valued at $15,000, and prepared to take them to a safe deposit vault. Shortly before 10 o'clock, Mrs. rang the elevator bell on floor. Sweeney answered. Mrs. Moore put her ba car. Moore the fourth He helped ggage in the Signal From Third Floor. Then they started down. Just be- fore the third floor was reached a sig- nal to stop there showed on the in- dicator. As he opened the door, started to enter. Mrs. to Sweeney and said: “Take that woman downstairs and come back for me.” With that she started to step from the elevator. Mrs. Barrett then from the folds of her dress produced a .32-caliber re- volver and without a word opened fire. The first bullet went wild and Mrs. Moore screamed: “For God's sake, that woman.” The second shot pierced Mrs. Moore's heart and the third entered the left arm. Sweeney caught her as she fell.

Murray said that about six years ago Mrs. Moore had Attorney Barrett do some work for her. When he died some papers belonging to Mrs. Moore were supposedly in his possession.

Mrs. Barrett, according to Murray, told Mrs. Moore she never saw any papers belonging to Mrs. Moore in her legal file. She explained that Senator Charles Lockwocd had taken over the affairs of her late hus- band and suggested that Mrs. Moore talk to him. Mrs. Moore, according to Lockwood, in 1924 was awarded $34,000 in settle- ment of the disputed will of the 83- year-old widow of a Pittsburgh steel man who had bequeathed Mrs. Moore, a friend, all of her $2,000,000 estate. Lockwood was attorney for the estate, and he said tonight $17,500 of the set- tlement was paid to Mrs. Barrett for her husband’s legal advice to Mrs. Moore, but the former corporation counsel’s widow was not satisfied Mrs. Barrett Feared Harm. Last year while Mrs. Barrett was away from home some one entered her apartment. Drawers were turned up- side down, rugs were cut and some of her expensive china broken. Although Mrs. Barrett called in the police, no ar- rest was made. Police. say she blamed her neighbor and asked police protection from her, asserting she feared bodily harm. Held without bail, Mrs. Barrett will be arraigned in Homicide Court on Monday. Will Win the 00 ‘500: in cash prizes to be offered to readers of next Sunday’s issue of The Washington Post

That is the charge | made by Americans who are not overly prq-British. They also drew attention to the recent affront offered British pestige in China when Sir Francis Ag- len, the veteran British inspector gen- eral of the Chinese maritime customs, was dismissed to give important promo- tion to a Japanese customs Official, now right in line for the inspectorate general. There is no disposition here to muddy Chinese international waters unneces- sarily by assuming a special Japanese interest in this new assault upon the American cigarette and tobacco trade in China. Nonetheless, there are known facts that are said to call for close scrutiny. China’s cigarette consumption is the result of remarkable pioneer work chiefly accomplished by the ably man- aged British-American Tobacco Co. That large corporation blazed the trail. It taught the Chinese the value of ad- vertising and the soothing solace of the | cigarette. This writer recalls early Ban on Likin Promised. In making this astounding announce- ment, at the very time when he is seeking American official recognition, Chiang Kai-Shek promises to the likin within the limits of jurisdiction Chiang’s ability to accomplish this miracie does not seem to be credited by any reasonable Amer- ican or European in China. On the contrary, warnings been cabled here that the likin, or Chinese internal taxation, is now ram- pant within Chiang’s domain, and that these vexatious local and provincial impositions threaten to become even more exasperating to all foreign busi- ness in China. Therefore, it is not likely that Chiang’s promises will be given serious weight. Sharp protests from Americans in China tnclude some bitter comments from many Americans who have been more than friendly to the Nanking group. The seriousness of the threat to cigarette manufacturers and leaf- tobacco growers and dealers may be gleaned from these facts: have years in China when cigarettes were as Chinese are rapidly overtaking Americans as cigarette consumers. According to the latest report of United States Consul John K, Da- vis, 90 per cent of the Nanking cigarette imports are American im- ports. China’s cigarette consumption has rapidly risen to the huge total of forty to fifty billions of ciga- rettes per annum. Aside from billions of cigarettes made in American factories, China imports about 36,000,000 pounds of leaf tobacco grown in the South- ern tobacco States, suitable for Chinese needs rather than for other markets. The threatened duties would en- able competitors to take the mar- ket away from the best-selling cheaper brands of American ciga- rettes, and it is feared that they would kill the trade in many grades of American leaf tobacco, possibly wipe out that trade alto- gether. This last is believed to be one of the real aims. were plentiful. Tobacco Mixed in Orient. Now, both water pipes and opium pipes take the smoke from an annually ascending -Chinese cigarette consump- tion, and millions of dollars’ worth of American-grown tobaccos are exported to China, where they are mixed with Chinese tobaccos to produce. the Chinese “Camels” and “Chesterfields,”’ “Pirates” and other favorite brands. Of course, a Chinese coolie takes to a “Pirate” like a duck to water. It is estimated that about 47,000,000 pounds of Chinese-grown leaf is used by American and other factories in China that import American leaf to the annual amount of about 36,000,000 pounds, adding indirect (Hongkong) to direct tobacco importations. All the large cigaret and tobacco companies are now actively engaged in the China field, the largest market for cheap cigarettes in the entire world. Japanese finance and industry have /made persistent efforts to displace Americans and Britons from the Chinese Cigarette and tobacco trades. So far, these efforts have not been successful. It remains to be seen what connection, if any, there is between the Nanking government's cigarette taxes (which also apply to Americans and other imported tobaccos) and this Japanese aspiration to absorb an American trade and in- Washington Is Cautious. Caution is being exercised by Wash- ington officials who are doing much thinking but no talking. It is evident that neither the Department of State nor the Department of Commerce has been caught napping. Resolute action rare as water pipes and opium pipes! is anticipated. In China the situation is regarded as by far the most serious in 20 years. “China is sending American business to the scrap-heap,” an old American busi- ness friend of the Chinese comments. Satisfaction felt that the United States has now on the scene two offi- cials thoroughly capable of dealing with this American trade crisis. Consul Gen- eral Edwin S. Cunningham, who has re- turned to his post’at Shanghai after a brief visit to Washington, and Julean Arnold, doyen, of American envoys of commerce and United, States commer- cial attache in ‘China, are both experts in the Chinese cigarette and tobacco business. For years, they have watch- ed that infant American industry .ex- pand into its present gigantic propor- tions Both are aggressive, outspoken men and they enjoy the confidence of the Chinese to an extent that has seldom been the lot of the most friendly for- eigner in China. They are known to be on their toes, now; so cigarette manu- facturers and tobacco growers and deal- ers are sure of strong diplomatic pro- tection, dustry in China. Close Connection Indicated. a close connection.. It is noted that Chiang Kai-shek and his Nanking government were undoubtedly promoted by Sadao Saburi, at one time in charge of the Japanese embassy in Washington, and by the Japanese wing of the mer- cantile and missionary groups interest- ed in American relations with the Far East. One American observer in China, a level-headed, experienced man, writes. “These Chinese groups take their money (when they can get it) from Americans; they take their orders from Japanese.” Another cbserver points out that Japanese inspired and American friends of China paid for the revived anticigarette crusade, utilized by Chi- nese nationalists. There are other ap- parently authentic facts having a bear- ing upon this very probable Japanese interest in the Nanking cigarette taxes. Meanwhile, the practical Japanese have resumed physical possession in Shantung. One reason is Shantung’s salt deposits. Japan meeds that salt for her Sakhalin fish industries and her Manchurian soya industries. And the group banks that have lost their Chi- nese salt securities (for the time be- ing) may welcome this Japanese prece- dent. Out of foreign rivalries in China, costly to each and all, the most re- liable American observers in China think that forelgn unity in China will 'soon come. They see it hastened by the |astounding Chinese incidents of this | week which, they say, could not hap- /pen anywhere except in China. Protest Only for Mobs. ic so Extortion Attempt Seen. Some observers see in this Nanking move a sinister effort to extort cam- paign funds through abuse of the tax club. They say that jealousies among foreign governments and foreigners in China invited what has now happened. They assert that Japanese openly pur- chased immunity at the expense of the British “only to be ultimately hoist by their own ‘subsidy’ petard.” These ob- servers are more critical of the so- called Japanese “liberals” than of the present premier, Baron Tanaka. Conservative Americans in China are more interested in. constructive pro- ‘tection than in reviving suspicions that might disturb American-Japanese ‘relations. The statements made by cold-blooded business men, because of their known desire to “get along with ‘the Japanese,” create far more concern shan would otherwise be the case. Also, léading foreigners in China have been working to secure unity of action (in home countries and in China. The Japanese have been given front seats in .these conferences, not for mere effect, but in an undoubtedly honest effort to help Japan to keep in step. All was serene (from. the foreign standpoint) along the Wangpoo and the Yangtze when Chiang and his Chinese threw a ‘Nanking brick into this foreign ma- chinery. vertises lustily a paper protest against further Japanese military penetration of the Confucian province of Shantung. Informed Americans, foreigners and Chinese grin (in company with. thor- OCughly informed Japanese) because they know, as Mr. Pan well knows, that these Japanese troops in Shantung are helping Mr. Pan and his satrap superior, Marshal Chang Tso-lin, to go on drawing their pay in Peking. The Pan protest is intended for mob Chinese and unenlightened American consumption. The Nanking government begs money, sympathy and recognition in America; and in the same breath this Nanking government does its best to sandbag the American tobacco and cigaret in- dustry in China. Japanese stand to benefit by this Nanking move, despite the fact that Japan is back in Shan- tung, that Japan guards her Shantung salt from Nanking and Wuhan Nation- alists; and that Japan is preventing her Nanking government from “capturing” her Peking government. . “For the ways that are dark,” for comedy that is also tragedy, today's Unity Most Dreaded.

The judge's verdict, handed down at noon Tuesday, was that they were guiltless of the charge of having subversive propaganda in their possession.

DELEGATIONS WAIT British Envoys Ask Home Government How Far They May Go. ¢ a ‘ fe YIELDING IS NECESSARY TO CONTINUED DISCUSSION Important Details, at Issue, Wait on Settlement of Tonnage Problem. Geneva, Switzerland, July 16 (A.P.). The next word in the tripartite naval negotiations apparently must be spoken by the British admiralty. Reliable in- formation here tonight is that the British delegation has asked London for instructions as to how far it can go in meeting the insistent demand of the American and Japanese delegations for lower total tonnage in cruisers than |heretofore has been claimed by the British. Upon the answer of the British ad- miralty seemingly depends the fate of the naval conference, for everybody realizes that the existing deadlock can not continue for more than a few days and that the oxygen of life must be injected into the negotiations, or the delegates must separate—their mission unaccomplished. However much the Japanese and Americans may be divided on some points, they are united on insisting upon what they deem a reasonably low total tonnage of cruisers as essential 'to any treaty of limitation of arma- ments. Situation Not Hopeless. The situation is described by most of the delegates as far from hopeless, but with all admitting that within a few days the conference must be adjourned or reach a basis of discussion for total cruiser tonnage, which would hold forth some chance of success. os. ¥ My ; *¥ ae J > 4 - 4 fr) Oe eva we a? i ei oe Me vi rg K + AMA. a ee ayy aa ? ee. 7 ee ys. ee a.” we SUNDAY, JULY 17, 1927, LAST U.S. WARNING LOOMS CT TO BREAK GENEVA DEADLOCK CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. Washington conference America scrap- ped ships, including the most modern first-line vessels, to reach parity with Britain and establish the ratio with Japan. Since that conference both Great Britain and Japan have entered into competitive building in cruisers and have so far outstripped the United States that the American navy is third in cruiser strength. The effect of Amre- ica’s present demand is that Britain and Japan call a halt and permit parity to be reestablished. The Amer- ican alternative to parity with Great Britain is American superiority, and it is for Great Britain to make the choice. The present deadlock at Geneva is due fundamentally to the fact that the British admiralty will not permit the American Navy to reach parity with the British. The total cruiser ton- nage question is of relatively minor importance. The British at one point discussed 600,000 tons of cruisers, as compared to 300,000 or 250,000 total tonnage suggested by the United States. It is clear to officials now that this 600,000 tons proposition was in reality an advance smoke-screen to becloud the real issue, especially as the British knew that Japan would not consider such a figure as representative of limit- ing naval armaments at all. British Scale Down Some. Consequently, the British under pres- sure began to scale down this 600,000 ton figure. But as a compensation for this “sacrifice’—which the British ad- miralty knew all along it would be called upon to make—Great Britain be- gan to divulge her real purpose. This is regarded as substantially divulged in the new and latest British proposal to accept a much lower total tonnage— perhaps 400,000 tons—provided the United States agrees to British terms as to how this 400,000 tons of cruiser strength is to be made use of. This is the crux of the deadlock. America will accept 400,000 tons despite the fact that this represents an ex- pansion rather than a limitation of cruiser strength, and is hardly in keep- ing with the spirit of limiting arma- ments. But, if this figure is to be agreed upon, «America insists on re- maining free and unfettered as to how she shall use this tonnage, what size ships she shall build. She wants free- dom to build ships of 10,000 tons, which is the maximum allowed by the Wash- ,inch guns on these vessels. Once this basis of discussion is reach- | ed the delegates must take under con- sideration such important questions of details as the size of cruisers under the 10,000-ton maximum fixed at Washing- ton, and the size of the guns to be mounted on these. The problem for the British appears to be that of whether they can forego their pro- jected program in cruiser building, and thus reduce their estimates for cruiser strength under the projected treaty to something below 400,000 tons | in an effort to meet the Japanese, who would like to see the cruiser strength | of Great Britain and the United States limited to 300,000 tons each. The general atmosphere of the con- ference tonight is that all the delega- tions are disposed to make concessions regarding details. Despite a decided lessening of the tension, which is evi- dent, there is no assurance felt what- soever at this moment that the con- ference will succeed. DIRIGIBLES “RESCUE” TWO ADRIFT IN BOATS ‘Langley Field Test Success- ful; Held Important in Cases of Shipwreck. Langley Field, Va., July 16 (A.P.).— The efficacy of dirigibles in rescuing men from sinking ships at sea was demonstrated in Chesapeake Bay when the TC-5 and TC-9, Army airships, Corpls. Hunter and Swain, of the Nineteenth Airship company, Langley Field, from a revenue cutter and a smaller Boat. It was said to be the first undertaking of that character ever carried out by Army dlirigibles. The ships of the sea on which the two Langley Field airmen had pre- viously been transported out into the bay, moved at full speed as the ships about 25 feet over them, dropping down rope ladders to each of the men on the decks of the steamers. It was the work of but a moment for the waiting corporals to grasp the ladders and climb to the baskets of the airships in which they were transported back to Langley Field. Following the successful demonstra- tion, part of a. training flight, opinion prevailed among air men that dirigi- bles can feasibly answer calls for help at sea and effect rescues either from ships or from floating wreckage.

Pigeons Are Missing. San Francisco, Calif., July 16 (A.P.). That the monoplane City of Oakland found its way through fog so thick and confusing that even homing pigeons became lost in it, was indicated here today after two birds released by Smith and Bronte 300 miles off San Fran- cisco failed to return. Although it was still uncertain whether the birds were lost at sea, their failure to come back to their stalls after more than 24 hours had elapsed was taken to mean that man’s mechanical bird may be more sure of its bearings in flight than the natural variety. The pigeons had been expected to return five hours after their release. Ships at sea reported they had not seen the birds. ,;in some way. during the speech-making, holding a ington conference, and she wants 8- American needs, her lack of naval bases and her insistence upon parity with the British, all demand that the United States Navy be supplied with such cruisers as the | United States deems necessary and not | such sizes and types as the British wish to stipulate for the Navy of Uncle Sam. Wants U. S. Agreement in Advance. Great Britain wants America to agree in advance as to just how many 10,000- ton ships she proposes to build and likewise wants agreement to reduce the guns to 6-inch caliber. This, it is ex- plained here, is because the British wish to utilize the total tonnage agreed upon to construct small cruisers, which she claims to have paramount need. British superiority in naval bases makes smaller cruisers particularly adaptable to British requirements and the fact that Great Britain already has seventeen cruisers of about 10,000 tons makes it unnecessary for her to build more. In view of the opposition which has developed against the British program, it is probable that the British admir- alty would agree to abandon plans for 10,000-ton cruisers which are not yet constructed and hold the number at twelve or fifteen, at the same time agreeing to permit America to build that number of these 10,000-ton ships. But why should the British feel called upon to tell America what sizes of types of cruisers she shall build, so long as the maximum of the Washing- ton Conference is not surpassed? This is the question which seemingly arouses the spirit of the American delegation. Seeks U. 8S. Having decided just what types of | smaller vessels and just what calibre of guns are best suited to British navy needs, the British admiralty apparently wants America to accept these stipula- tions whether they suit America’s needs or not. In other words, the plan seems to be to restrict future American cruiser building, according to British and not American requirements. As a reason for her insistence, Great Britain points out that America might construct 30 or more 10,000 cruisers and thereby force Britain to duplicate that number, which would mean aban- doning smaller cruisers which the Brit- ish claim to need. Thus, the idea of Agreement. FRENCH ACADEMY’ MOST RECENT VOTE S APIO. AFFAIR Two New Members Named, One, Emile Male, Winning Upon Single Ballot.

The governor told a story how Sena- | tor Norbeck had slept with a convict and declared that that was typical why the people in this State loved him and “you couldn’t beat him in South | Dakota today.” Then, when the newspaper men were wondering what had become of the | tariff speech, he said in conclusion: “I| am not going to talk about our prob- lems. We are going to work them out If you will just fix up the tariff here and there s0 as to put us farmers on an equal basis, we will get along all right. If you will just quit fixing artificial prices on things we have to buy we will get along all right—but I am not going to talk about that.” Before that he had talked about the picnic, and said he and the President were going to arrange for a trination picnic instead of a tristate one, and that he and Senator Norbeck were go- ing to a> -nge for a triplanet one. The President could not help him on that, > said, but Senator Norbeck could. “We Like Bulow,” Norbeck Says. The senator was not as enthusiastic as the governor, who, when he sat down, put his arms around the sena- tor’s neck, but he did say he and the governor got along all right. “We all like Gov. Bulow,” he said. “There are independent voters in this State who do not care what ticket a man is on.” While these men ‘of opposite politi- cal faith were picking words to com- mend each other, this reporter thought the President was going to bite his finger nails any minute, so great was the strain. There seemed to be some significance, too, in what.else the sena- tor said. He dismissed the problems of the State, as they have come to be called with this: “After all, we are part of the Union and are being con- sidered. What is good for one section may not be good for another. There Is naturally conflict of interests, and there has got to be a compromise in Order to have a working arrangement.” No one section can govern the Union, he pointed out, and he ex- plained that if the Western States feel overwhelmed .by the Eastern States’ representation in the House they should remember that every State has two senators, and with this scheme of government the Northwest can pre- vent any inequitable legislation from being enacted. The main thing, in his opinion, would be for everybody to vote. But that was not what the senator had planned to say. On the tariff, after making the Re- publican and Democratic comparisons, he said, it has 2,000 items and any- thing with so many pieces was bound to be bad. Only the Democratic tariff was worse.

J JULY 17. .. 21927: SS CHAIN BRIDGE FUND, WITH: 1020 BUDGET. 10 AOKED BY MOORE Commissioners, However, Be- lieve Special Congressional Action Best Method. EXPENSE OF REMOVAL IS STRESSED IN LETTER | Razing Would Consume ies | Amount of $350,000, Virginian Says. Representative R. Walton Moore, of Virginia, yesterday by letter requested the commissioners to include an item of $350,000 in the District budget es- timates for 1929, to provide for re- placement of Chain Bridge. While the commissioners are eager to rebuild the bridge, it was deemed unlikely in the .District Building yes- terday that they would accede to the request, holding the opinion that the quickest way to get a new bridge erected and open to traffic would be by a special authorization of Congress and a deficiency appropriation that would enable the work to be started early in the spring instead of waiting until July 1. In his letter, said: “Believing it wise to present to the Bureau of the Budget an authorita- tive proposal, I very much hope that the commissioners sider. the expediency of including in their annual estimates an item for re- Representative Moore | will further cone- | constructing the bridge, as that would | bring the matter anew to the atten- tion of the bureau to be dealt with in the light of recent developments. Removal Held Expensive. “The commissioners have heretofore fixed the cost of reconstruction of the bridge at $350,000. It is certain that should the bridge be abandoned a iarge percentage of that amount would be needed for its removal and thus it is clear that the net cost of recon- struction would be far less than the amount mentioned. “Very heavy expense attaches to the removal of a bridge, as illustrated by the fact that in the last Congress the House District committee was advised by the War Department that the cost of removing the old Acqueduct Bridge will be approximately $200,000.” The letter was referred to the En- gineer Commissioner. Saffell Assertion Denied. District officials yesterday denied an assertion by H. C. Saffell, a clerk in the District water registrar’s office and chairman of the Arlington County (Va.) Water Commission, that special au- thority from Congress would have to be obtained before the District could dismantle Chain Bridge, on which the Arlington County water mains have been placed. Capt. H. C. Whitehurst, assistant to the Engineer Commissioner, and Maj. Daniel J. Donovan, District auditor, said that the Commissioners have ample power, as an emergency measure to prevent danger to life of persons, to tear down the bridge or any part of it, despite the wishes of Arlington County residents or officials. They stated that the Commissioners could pay for the work from emergency funds and obtain a deficiency appro- priation to replenish the fund when Congress convenes. NAVAL RESERVISTS BACK FROM TRIP 78 District Men Return From Two Weeks’ Training on Destroyer Allen. Bronzed by their two weeks’ practice cruise, 78 naval reservist of the District and 45 from Baltimore sailed up the Potomac yesterday morning on the de- stroyer Allen and docked at the navy yard at 9:20 o’clock, where they re- ceived their training pay and were mustered out. Lifeboat drill was practiced on the homeward journey and brought prompt and efficient response from the crew which manned and lowered the lifeboats to rescue the “man over- board,” a floating box. The ship encountered heavy seas and strong winds on its way back from Long Island Sound, where it maneu- vered with the destroyer squadrons of the scouting fleet. It anchored off Mememsha Bight, Martha’s Vineyard, Thursday and off the Virginia Capes Friday, maintaining schedule despite unfavorable weather. Lieut. Comdr. Alfred S. Wolfe, regu- lar officer in charge of the cruise, com- plimented the seamanship and marks- manship of the reservists, their marks- manship scoring a hundred per cent.

Fronting on Charles street, in the historic town of Fredericksburg, is a quaint old-fashioned brick building shaded with ancient trees. It is old, very old, and the years have treated it ‘unkindly, but there is something about the single-storied structure which speaks of glories passed. Here, in the vigor of his James Monroe came, fresh from the battles of the Revolution. Here he first hung out his lawyer’s shingle.

Partitioned off and divided into three houses, the building until recently was the habitat of several families. All this is to be changed. In a few more weeks the building again will take on the appearance it presented to the township when James Monroe, destined to the Presidency and the promulgation of the American interna- tional policy which bears his name, was a country lawyer After more than a century the old offices again have become the property of the Monroe family Laurence Gouverneur Hoes, of this city, great- great-grandson of the distinguished statesman, has purchased the bui'ding.

DOZEN JUNIOR GIRLS UF COLLEGES STUDY LIFE IN TENEMENT Group Selected From the Big Eastern Institutions Are on the East Side. THE HARDLUCK FAMILY GETS THEIR ATTENTION Students ‘Swap’ Experiences and Will Report Later to Their Classmates. Special to The Washington Post. New York, July 16.—The two halves of the world are at last learning about each other. While aconsiderable group of industrial girls is studying eco- nomics, sociology, the sciences and home making at the Bryn Mawr sum- mer school, a dozen alert juniors from big women’s colleges of the East are poking about East Side New York, up| the stairs of tenements and down into into basement rooms where live New York’s poor Fresh from classrooms, where this and that theory for the bet- termenbd of the race is advanced, these young adventurers are measuring their book learning against the uncompro- mising facts they find on New York streets.

Junior month, which is the project | which brings these youngsters to New York City for four weeks, was origi- nated eleven years ago, when Mrs. John M. Glen led the board members of the Charity Organization Society to believe there was much to be gained by the or- ganization and by the community at large by interesting college girls in so- cial work. The plan included the se- lection of the most outstanding mem- ber of the junior class at Wellesley, Vassar, Connecticut, Elmira, Mount Holyoke, Bryn Mawr, Radcliffe, Wells, Swarthimore a Barnard colleges for | @ month’s study of living conditions| among the poorer classes in New York City v Report to Classmates, The girls were to be chosen by a committee of students and faculty of each school, and since the Charity Or- ganization Society pays the expenses of the experiment, the girl chosen need not come from a family of means. A knowledge of sociology, economics, psychology, a good scholarship record, interest in civil and social welfare and leadership ability are the conditions of selection, but when a girl of marked ability lacks one of these qualifications she is not shut out because of it. The zeal and aptitude to communicate to her classmates at college what she has | learned in her month of social work in New York is by far the winning characteristi This year the juniors are all twelve folk of unusual attractiveness. College educations and a generous allotment of brains have not damaged their feminine charm in the least. They are quar- tered together on a floor of the Wo- men’s University Club on East Fifty- second street. After their day of eye- opening tramping about New York’s Jeast beautiful sections one may find them dining together, arrayed in sheer orchid and blue and pink, seemingly undismayed by a hot and disillusion- ing day. Over the coffee and cigarettes they talk, perhaps seriously, of what they have seen. The other day three or four of them wandered into Tam- | many Hall and were deeply impressed | by its grimy antiquity. Children’s Court Sobering. Children’s court was more sobering, tall psychological terms about fixations, and the juniors came away talking in environment and fear complexes. One theme runs through all their talk—the | tenements must go! Nobody could be | good or cheerful or efficient in such Places, they declare. They know all | about the model apartment proposals | under discussion, and they are de-/| termined to give them all the support propagandizing juniors can. College women are, as a rule, rather | indifferent to children. These girls are by no means overmaternal, but their genuin cern about children is strikingly evl- | dent. They speak again and again of the necessity of sending the little pave- | ment pounders to the country for the | hot months. Their slight acquaintance | Situation | with the unemployment makes them a trifle impatient with cases of stubborn poverty, particularly where the bread winner is not working | ful] time. But, even when they are | confronted with the impossibility of bigger and better wages, they refuse to | be completely stumped. They delve || back into their store of psychology and sociology and human nature and bring up surprising pearls of knowledge about | dealing with case work. The place of women in business and industry holds | a large part of thefr interest. Work | me may be exactly the | Outside the ho right thing for a woman’s happiness and development, aside from the financial consideration, they say. Sympathetic in Judgment. Their personal moral standards would Shock no Grundy, unless smoking and Ssilk-clad knees below rather. short skirts furnish grounds for complaint, but they are not priggish in their judg- ments of other people. Their sympa- thies are pretty largely with the delin- quent girl. There must be reasons, they believe, for the bad luck, and they set about at once to discover them, los- ing no time in moralizing or recrim- inations. The juniors are eager to learn conditions, but they are utterly free from morbidity, and as for cyni- cism, their vocabulary contains no such word! “No, I don’t want to go into social work,” said Molly Thatcher, the pretty Vassar girl who is to be editor-in-chief | | of the Vassar College Weekly this com- | ing school year. “I am going to be a journalist. Some day I hope to work on a@ paper or magazine with a social conscience. Anyway, everybody ought) to know what conditions are among people who don’t have an easy time || of it. I live in East Orange and have | been in New York City a lot, but I| learned more today in walking from | Fifty-second street to Fourteenth than in all the rest of ‘my life put together. | I have enough material for my whole year of editorials.” Florence Lyon, the Smith representa- tive, is much interested in the Christian Association work on the Smith Campus. “It’s not very religious,” she hastened to say. ‘We do mainly social work with the industrial girls from around North- ampton. That is valuable because it | gives us a chance to know their atti- |) tude toward the union and their own working conditions. I am not sure what I will do when I graduate, but whatever it is’ this month should be valuable. To watch Marjorie Saunders, Bryn Mawr’s choice, munching a bedtime carrot no one would ever believe a serious thought went on under her mop of close-clipped chestnut ringlets, but Marjorie Saunders is a_ delightfully reasonable and responsible person when confronted with the family difficulties ae . . = <e iad Me hi ee COLLEGE JUNIORS STUDY SOCIAL CONDITIONS IN NEW York | (PILGRIMAGE TO FRANCE FOR AAINBOW VETERANS Plans Begun at Convention of Division at Des Moines; Columbus in 1928. PRIVATE NEW PRESIDENT Des Moines, Iowa, July 16 (A.P.).— Preparedness as a national policy was unanimously approved by veterans of the Rainbow Division as friendships formed under stress of battle were re- newed at the ninth annual convention closing here today. “The Government should give sol- diers who risked death and disablement in time of war the same consideration shown the profiteers who remained behind,” Senator Smith W. Brookhart told the survivors of the yolunteer regiment, in urging that capital as well as men should be drafted in time of national crisis. Preliminary plans were launched for Twelve college juniors, representing as many Eastern women’s colleges, who are in New York City for the study of social conditions, In the group are Helen Greenblatt, of Barnard; Margery Saunders, of Bryn Mawr; Madeliene F’, Clay, of Goucher; Alice Kimball, of Mount Holyoke; Elizabeth Belcher, of Radcliffe; Florence Lyon, of Smith; Emlyn M. Hodge, of Swarthmore; Molly Thacher, of Vassar; Florence Hollis, of Wellesley, and Sally Brown, of Wells. Clare Tousley, in charge, is at the extreme right. Ruth Shultis, of Connecticut; Mary Rose, of Elmira; a pilgrimage next year to visit the French battlefields on which the Rain- bow fought nine years ago. The invi- tation of the French government to hold the 1928 reunion in Paris was de- clined because many of the men would be unable to finance the trip. Columbus, Ohio, was selected as next year’s meeting place. Minnesota in- of Mr. and Mrs. MHardluck in their wretched basement house.

Clary, Goucher; Alice Kimball, Mount Holyoke; Elizabeth Belcher, Radcliffe; Florence Lyon, Smith; Emlyn M. Hodge, Swarthmore; Molly Thatcher, Vassar; Florence Hollis, Wellesley; Sally Brown, Wells. While they are here they will study in a cursory way casework method, | health, medical social service, com- munity work, child welfare, housing, the mental defective, prison reform, juvenile delinquency, mental hygiene and psychiatry, work with the handi- capped, social work in industry, so- cial work with the negro, the visiting teacher, case work and legislative re- form, immigration problems and social work as a profession. Third Division Men To Visit Arlington Nearly 200 members of the Society of the Third Division will visit Arlington Cemetery today to decorate the tomb | of the Unknown Soldier. After the ceremony they will return to the Raleigh Hotel, headquarters of their eighth annual reunion, for adjourn- ment proceedings. Yesterday at an election and business meeting officers of the order were unanimously reelected for the coming year. At their farewell banquet, held in the ballroom of the Raleigh last night, members were addressed by Ma}. Gen, Joseph T. Dickman, U. S. A., re- tired, who commanded the Third Di- vision during most of its service on French soil. Drys Talk of Borah Or McAdoo for 1928 Oakland,.Calif., July 16 (A. P.).— Senator William E. Borah and William Gibbs McAdoo stand today as likely presidential candidates of the Prohibi- tion party in the 1928 campaign, de- clared Dr. Leigh Colvan, national chair- man of the party, in an address here to- cay. The speaker said that the present administration failed to gain the sup- port of the Prohibitionists through its reduction of prohibition enforcement budgets for the sake of economy. YOUNG NEGROES PLEASED WITH HONOR FOR FRANCIS Education and Training of| Colored Men Recognized, Says Howard U. Head. PROMINENT AS LAWYER “Appointment of William’ T. Francis, of St. Paul, Minn., as Minister to Liberia by President Coolidge last week,” Dr. Emmett J. Scott, of Howard University, stated yesterday, “is recog- nition of that younger group of col- ored men who have fitted themselves by education and training for such rec- ognition.” He spoke as one of the col- ored members of the advisory commit- tee of the Republican national execu- tive committee. Similar comment indicated in the correspondence of political leaders here has shown that the President’s ap- pointment has met with much favor, | principally because of the general be- lief among colored politicians that it ‘was the intention of the White House to withdraw from the negro group the last diplomatic post. The new ap- pointee was employed for nineteen years in the law department of the Northern Pacific Railroad at St. Paul, in which city he has been following the general practice of law. He was a presidential elector for Minnesota in 1920 and served as chairman of the Western district of the negro national Republican headquarters throughout the Cookidge-Dawes campaign, with general supervision of campaign activi- | § ties among colored people from Ohio | & to the Pacific. His wife, prominently known in the National Federation of Colored Wom- | jf en’s Clubs, has been active in social, | Bm civic, political and club work in St. /f{ Paul and throughout the Northwest. | @ She is a member of the Ramsey County | Republican committee. The Firestone operations in development of Liberian | rubber and completion of negotiation of a $5,000,000 Liberian loan for erec- tion o1 a breakwater at Monrovia, creat- ing a port of call, have been calculated to bring the Liberian post to the fore- front. to Earn Your VACATION 33 Easy-to-Win CASH PRIZES Totaling $00.

The State highway systems of the country, which comprise a network of 287,928 miles, were two-thirds initially improved at the beginning of the year, the Bureau of Public Roads announced yesterday. Statistics just completed show 19,492 miles of surfaced roads were con- structed last year, of which 13,664 miles were laid over former earth roads and 5.828 miles represented a rebuilding of old surfaces. Surfacing laid by counties or other local governments are not included but all work done with Federal aid is em- braced in the total. The mileage of the combined State systems at the first of the year which had been surfaced, totaled 163,059 while 28,456 miles had been graded and drained according to engineering standards. The types of surfaced roads were: Gravel, chert and shale, 79,285 miles; cement concrete, 31,935 miles; water- bound macadam, 18,428 miles; bitumi- nous macadam, 12,927 miles; sand-clay and topsoil, 11,396 miles; bituminous concrete, 4,814 miles; sheep asphalt, 890 miles and asphalt, wood and stone | block, 165 miles.

? FFFICIENCY BUREAU DEPLORES OBSOLETE INL CONSTRUCTION gt Report Recommends Immedi- at Correction of Condi- tions by District. PLAN FOR REDUCTION OF POPULATION NEEDED Group Wants Trained Social Worker Provided for Pris- oners’ Welfare. Immediate correction of “deplorable conditions” at the District jail, due to @bsolete construction yielding dark in- sanitary cells and intolerable over- crowding, was recommended in a report submitted yesterday by the bureau of efficiency to the Commissioners, Rebuilding of the north, south and west wings was urged, using the pres- ent reconstruction of the east wing as the beginning of a program of com- plete renovation, and the specific sug- gestion was made that George 5. Wil- son, director of public welfare; A. L. Harris, municipal architect and H. H. Hart, consultant in penology of the Russell Sage Foundation, be named asa committee to draw plans for the work. Provision of trained social worker at the jail was also recommended. The report, which was written by Howard B. Gill, said, in part: “The deplorable conditions at the District jail are due primarily to the obsolete structure of the cell blocks in the north and south wings, further ag- gravated by overcrowding. “The cell blocks are built of brick and comprise four tiers of two rows each of small cells. Two cells with a door between form the typical unit— one cell containing two bunks, one above the other, the other cell con- taining a toilet bowl and one bunk. Due to the distance of the cells from the outer windows and the small inter- for window in each cell the light in each is always dim. Cells Are Crowded. *Solid wall construction of brick on all sides makes the cells difficult to keep clean, especially when more men are continually crowded into them than they ever were designed to hold. Two days in the spring of the pres- ent year were then taken as typical for a@ study of disposition of jail popula- tion, and the report said: “In the south wing 5 cell units were reserved for 5 condemned men and 2 cell units for punishment, leaving 57 cell units to house approximately 170 men. In the north wing 212 men were crowded into 64 cell units; some slept on mattresses laid on the floor.” Describing the relief that will be af- forded when the new east wing is placed in service in the fall, the report said the relief would be inadequate and continued: “It is evident that a plan must be developed for reducing the population at the jail, or the old wings must be reconstructed, or both.” Failure of plans to transfer all com- mitted prisoners to the workhouse, leav- ing the jail for those not yet sentenced, and a few other small classes of pris- oners, is then described at length, and resumption of efforts to bring this about is urged, following which the re- port proceeds: “As previously pointed out, even such am arrangement will crowd 175 men into 128 cell units. Such crowding in jails among men awaiting trial is recog- 4 ve THE ion + : ‘ m + ww ‘ , a * é sh wer o ‘ 4 vie ¥ ‘ i .

They are shown at the Social Service House, just prior to departure for the camp. nized as the worst possible source of future crime. For many prisoners this | is their first experience in crime. All| of those awaiting trial are presumed | to be innocent, and nearly 50 per cent | of them will be released by the sourts to return to society without further incarceration. “To put two or three prisoners in a single cell unit, as is necessary at the District jail, serves only to stimulate criminal tendencies. Due to obsolete type of construction the cells are small and dark and difficult to keep clean. The work of modernizing the jail should continue with the reconstruction of the interior of the north, south and west wings. “At this time, when the population at the jail is small enough to permit enyptying one entire wing, it is pro- pitious to begin this reconstruction. To wait for even a few years, when, due to the natural growth of the city or to other conditions, the jail becomes crowded again, will show exceedingly great lack of foresight.” Steps that have been taken and new oncs that have been planned by the jail authorities for alleviating condi- tions of filth are described in the re- port. It. is recommended that still further improvement be made possible by opening communication between the women’s wing and workrooms in its basement, so that women inmates may work on the clothes and launder- ing for all inmates Social Worker Needed. On the subject of engaging a social worker for the jail the report says: “The jail has no chaplain or other officer whose duty it is to look after the personal welfare of the prisoners. Criticism has been directed at the Dis- trict government for failure to provide legal counsel for prisoners needing it, but it is evident that what is needed is a trained worker who will look after prisoners’ needs not only with refer- ence to protecting them from shyster lawyers and securing proper legal coun- eel but also with regard to getting them in touch with relatives, friends or other agencies which can help them during incarceration and especially on release. “Such a worker should aid also in prov.ding for setting-up exer- cises, education, recreation, reading, en- tertainment and religious services for prisoners. He should meet every pris- ~ ce’ sogular . Oner when he enters the jail following his official‘and medical inspection. “It is well recognized that the reduc- tion of crime is largely a matter of re- ducing the number of recidivists in penal institutions. The District pro- vides a staff of trained workers to look after its 2,000 juvenile wards, yet it provides not a single worker to help reclaim any of the 12,000 men and women who annually pass through its jail, most of whom are youths in their twenties “It is recommenced, therefore that the Board of Public Welfare, in increas- ing the present personnel as provided for in the appropriations for 1927-8, assign at least one.worker to the jail to look after: the welfare of the 12,000 prisoners annually committed to it.” Rockville Marriage Licenses.

PARENT-TEACHERES fo The “Parent-Teacher Activities” col- ‘umn is to be continued 4 the sum- Mer vacation. Will any one doing any Work for children of any kind be good Chough to send notices and descriptions G their work and its development to the office, 800 Eighteenth street north- West, apartment 31. is Your Child Ready for School? A child that is physically handi- Capped is not ready for school. He is Susceptible to contagious diseases, and Much valuable time is lost all through the school year. In many cases he does not make his grades, and becomes dis- couraged and disinterested in school Work. This is not fair to the child, and Cvery effort should be made in the endeavor to send him to school 100 per cent in health. e thousand four hundred and thirty-six delegates were registered at the national convention at Oakland. next annual convention of the national congress will be held at Cleve- land, Ohio, in April 1928. In the Parent-Teacher Activities column of’ last week appeared the first article of a series which deals with the summer activities of children, and Save as a suggestion the forming of the Club of Six. It will be well to cut out these articles as they appear ®ach week then you can use the sug- gestions any time you form your club. Por information you may desire along this line phone or write to Mrs. Frank- lim D. Jones, 2844 Wisconsin avenue northwest, Cleveland 4460. During the long summer days when time hangs heavy and one feels like doing “something different,” get the club of six together and plan for the Making of a nature treasure chest. Any box will do to begin with, then as the treasures increase you can look for a box more fitted to your needs. Begin by collecting leaves. This can be made a fascinating game just to see how many different kinds can be found, and how many one can learn to recognize at first glance. It is not always easy to name a leaf without seeing the tree on which it grew, for often the shape and texture of the bark is depended upon to Give @ clue to the identity of the leaf. So when you go for your leaves have s>me way of noting the name, if you know {it at that time. 7 is a good suggestion: Carry along on your trip to the country, an old magazine or two and put your leaves inside—writing in the margin along the top the name of each leaf as you find it. Keep your leaves in this magazine Lmtil they are dry and then attach the Mame to each one by taking a slip Of paper three inches long by c-1e-half inch wide, fold it around the stem of the leaf and paste the two ends to- gether so the leaf won’t slip off. This Makes a flag on which to write the name. The most interesting part is finding the names for the leaves you do not know. Take your magazine of unknown leaves to the library and there in the reference room you can tell the librarian what you are doing, and she will see that you get the right books to help you identify the leaves. This ig very interesting when several work together. In collecting specimens do not try to get the largest leaf on the tree, but get an average size as it is more representa- tive, and be sure the leaves you get are really from trees, for it is very con- using if you mix in leaves from shrubs br berry bushes. It will help you to identify the leaves ou do not know if you will note the ize and shape of the tree and the color nd texture of the bark of the tree from hich they came When your leaves are dried and amed put them into a convenient mardboard box and put it into the na- ure treasure chest for safe keeping. While you are getting your leaves eep your eyes open for everything of mterest which can go into the chest. f any of your playmates are going away, ll them to bring back something for he chest. Sand and shells and dried saweed from the seashore—canes, moss and pine needles from the mountains Make fine collections. Now is the time to begin the nature scrapbook. It will largely consist of stories and articles and pictures which you find in the daily papers and maga- zines. The stories you can illustrate with your own drawings or with pic- | tures you cut from old magazines. Every Sunday the Radio Nature League has splendid stories for your scrapbook. These can easily be sepa- ated and pasted on a single page with an illustration of your own making. “Tales of Real Dogs,” found in the Sunday Post, are just the thing to save, Should the story be too long you can cut between the lines of print and paste alf on a second page. A home-made scrapbook is the very | best kind. One will be made similar to a Kodak picture book. If you haven't plain paper to cut for, your pages, get a pad of drawing paper | —the larger size will be easier to handle. Make the cover from card board that ig not too stiff—a suit box is the ideal | thing to use for it is easy to cut, and | will bend without breaking. Paste a) strip of cloth two inches wide along | one end or side of each cover, This is to add strength where the cover ts bent back. With a punch or ice pick, make two or three holes for lacing the covers together with a short shoe string. Com- plete each leaf before you lace it into your book, for this will save a lot of | hard wear. . Print the name “Nature Scrap-book” | on the top cover, with your own nhame | if you like. : All of the things which the clubs | make this summer are to be sent to the Children’s Hospital or to the chil- | dren at the Juvenile Court, or Travelers | peague. So keep it in mind, and try | to think of what others would like as | well as what you like. While having no regular meetings, the Grant P. T. A. finds plenty to do. It has assumed Juvenile Court respon- sibility for the month of July. Mrs Phillips and Mrs. Kirby are ready to serve unfortunate children. The asso- clation also is helping the Health Clinic , ciples at 925 Twenty-second street, whose yolunteer worker has gone on her vaca- tion. cancy. Through the combined efforts of the president of Carbery Parent-Teacher Association, Mrs. John W. Davis and Mrs. Alice Davis the interest and co- operation of Dr. J. D. Rogers were se- eured thereby making it possible to nave the Carbery clinic at Stanton Park Hospital, Friday, May 27, from 1 to 4 p. m., for the “summer round-up.” Twenty-one children were included in the “round-up,” fifteen of whom were examined at the clinic, two ex- amined by own family physicians and four fatling to report on May 27 are yet to be examined. Volunteer services of the following ysicians were obtained by members of the “summer round-up” committee Dr. J. D. Rogers, director and owner of Stanton Park Hospital; Dr. S. L. Battles, Dr. F. W. Braden, Dr. R. J. McNulty. Dr. Walter L. Hagen, dentist, examined all teeth. The following mothers covered the Carbery area by each taking a street through the entire territory. making a nouse-to-house canvass of same and so doing rounded up all children living within Carbery district at the sent time, who will enter the school next September or February: Mrs. Walter Hagen, Mrs. John Ros- son, Mrs. Gover Koockogey, Mrs. Will- iam Domdera, Mrs, Norman Sandridge, Mrs. Frank Ludlow, Mrs. George Fox and Mrs. Alice Davis. The following mothers assisted at the clinic: Mrs. John W. Davis, Mrs. A. K. Wine, Mrs. Norman Sandridge, Mrs. John Car- ter. Mrs. Jomn Smith, »Mrs. Gover Buoci.vsey. Mis. Walter Hagen, Mrs. + Grant P. T. A. is filling this va- | Altce Davis and Mrs. district chairman. Letters of thanks and weciation from the association were se? Dr. Rog- ers for the use of Stanton Park Hos- pital and to each of the examining physicians for services rendered. Smalley, The following resolutiotis were adopt- ed by the convention of the National Congress of Parents and.Teachers in Oakland, Calif., in May: “1, Worthy Home Membership—The congress calls upon its members, edu- cational workers, and~ all citizens to support measures for the improvement of family life, including suitable in- struction for parenthood, and laws rais- ing the requirements for marriage. “We indorse all worthy projects look- ing toward better housing, better build- ing codes, better neighborhood play- grounds and parks, and better regional and city planning, “2. Sound Health—Th8® congress fav- ors the development of a of health education which would guaran- tee every child freedom from remedi- able defects, proper handling from the standpoint of mental health, and the giving of instruction designed to pre- vent the formation of habits that undermine health and strength. “The congress reaffirms its stand on the Volstead act. “It reaffirms its willingness to co- operate with other organizations in narcotic education. “The congress urges its members to work with publishers of magazines for home use, and demonstrate the per- nicious results of advertisements which seek to make the use of tobacco attrac- tive and deplores the practice of men and women selling their names to for- ward cigarette advertisements. “3. Vocation Effectiveness—The con- gress favors a program of vocational guidance and education which will en- able all youth to make the most of their talents. It urges State branches to work for the ratification of the pro- poséd child labor amendment, and for better laws within the States that chil- dren may be protected from exploit- ation. “4. Mastery of tools, technics and spirit of learning—The congress urges that the State branches’ support actively worthy movements for the im- provement of schools, libraries, mu- seums, art galleries and other educa- tional agencies. “It urges active work in each con- gressional district in behalf of the new education bill creating a department of education with a secretary in the Presi- dent’s Cabinet. “We favor methods of selecting State and county superintendents which will secure the highest type of professional leadership in these fields. “The congress expresses the convic- tion that equal ability in teaching should receive equal compensation re- gardiess of grade taught. “5. Wise use of leisure—The con- | gress favors a positive program of edu- cation in the wise use of leisure. “It urges the State branches to work for higher standards of commercial amusements and for a return to the home as a center of recreation life. “The congress reaffirms its stand in behalf of cleaner and better motion pic- tures and urges its members to use their influence in promoting the use of films offering the best type of family entertainment, as well as those of high educational and cultural value. “The congress further affirms its be- lief that the exploitation of children on the stage for a purpose of exhibition of financial gain is destructive of normal growth and development of children so exploited, and urges its members to use their influence to dis- | courage and prohibit such exploitation. “The national congress goes on record as opposing dishonest and in- accurate advertising of motion pictures “Useful citizenship—The congress urges parents and teachers to give children fuller opportunity for the practice of citizenship through par- ticipating in clubs and organizations. “We believe that war between na- tions as a settlement of international disputes is a crime against civilization. “7. Ethical Character—The Congress urges its members to foster spiritual training in order to create an atmo- sphere in which positive and harmon- ious character may develop.” The newest association in the Dis- trict of Columbia is that of the new Stuart Junior High School, with Mrs. George W. Lady, president, and Mrs. J. W. Davis, first vice president. The D. C. Congress of P.-T. A. extends to this new association a most hearty wel- come. C. J. Schwartz, principal of the Stuart Junior High, and the commit- tee on the constitution, held a meet- ing in his office on Friday evening. July 1, for the purpose of drawing mp a constitution for that Parent-Teacher | Association. The constitution calls for the afternoon meetings to be held on the first Wednesday of each month at. for the) | night meetings to be decided later. | Members of the committee were C. J | 3 o’clock, the date and time Schwartz, Arthur Jordan, Mrs. William Levy, Mrs. George W. Lady and Mrs | John W. Davis. Questions of the parent-teacher in- | telligence test: 1. What is the emblem of the Na- tional Congress of Parents and Teach- ers? Explain what each part repre- sents. 2. State in full the objects of the National. - 3. What are the fundamental prin- ciples upon which the congress is based? Briefly interpret these prin- Do they apply to State and local organizations? 4. Who is the president of the Na- tional? 5. Give the address of the Nationa)! headquarters? 6. Who is the president of the State branch? 7. Name the other State officers. 8. Give the address of the State of- fice. 9.

What committees are essentia] to a parent-teacher association? 12. Define the duties of these com- mittees. 13. Define the duties of the officers. 14. Give five reasons why a local should join the State and National Congress. 15. Give reasons why a teacher association should not join any other local, State or national organiza- tion. Mrs. Margaretta Willis Reeve, presi- dent, of the National Congress of Par- ents and Teachers, at the National Con- vention in Oakland, Calif., in May, pointed out that 85 per cent of all school children never go beyond the eighth grade, and that it is in the grammar school that most children re- ceive all the education they ever ob- tain. “Grammar school teachers, however, receive less money than high school teachers, who teach but 15 pe cent of the school children, and here lies the weakness of the national school sys- tem, and. teachers are not receiving in- creased salaries for increased efficiency.” Mrs. Reeve stated. She believed that Single salary wage based on equal pay for equal merit would tend to free the grammar schools from inefficiency, and to keep men and women of the finest type in the profession. The University of Minnesota has es- tablished an extension department for parent education for the purpose of bringing to parents information which may aid them in the training of their children.

WRITER SEES DECLINE | | OF FRENCH AVIATION | Pilots Have Ability, but Gov-| ernment Spurns New Ideas, He Says. Paris, July 16 (A.P.).—French avia- | tion is in a state of decline, writes J. | views he says he had with the principal technical men here. The trouble, he adds, is that French aircraft are “‘brilllant the first few days but lacking in permanent worth.” He gives the life of most French planes as | under 100 hours of flying while Amer- ican and German airplanes are good for 1,000 hours. As proof of this dis- couraging statement he says statistics show French army planes last year were replaced 1 1-5 times. The army, he comments, offers on objection to this policy: because the pilots like new planes and the builders like the busi- ness.

The advance raised quotations to where they were before the “price war” broke out in the Tidewater section six weeks ago. Dealers denied there was any general agreement to end price- cutting, and, in explaining the advance, pointed out that “everybody else is raising, too.” Almost simultaneously with the cut early in June, the Federal Trade Com- mission announced an investigation of practices in Virginia by the principal oil companies due to complaints made by Gov. Byrd and independent dis- tributors. A commissioner held a hear, ing at Richmond and committees were appointed to work out a code of ethics.

If you wish to receive a compliment on your beaux yeux from your taxi driver, and a twinkle and “Ma’mselle est tres chic ce matin” from the gen- _darme, by all means go to Paris. But if your soul craves a shopping expedition, do your buying at home in the old ‘familiar places. That is the advice of two of the Jay | V. Jay girls, the creators of the fashion strip “Modish Mitzi!” running in this paper who returned from abroad hav- ing given the proper fashion back- ground to Mitzi, Polly and Adelaide. To Mitzi et al., demi-cloche is a demi-cloche and some- thing more. The something more brings memories of fourteen days of wander- ing to and fro in the shopping district, climbing up and down dingy stairs in tucked away corners in a vain quest for some fad or fashion entirely new. And there wasn’t any. As soon as they found a new pocketbook, a new perfume or a new piece of jewelry some- body had seen it before right on some Washington street. It was really a case of discovering that novelties, like char- ity, begins at home. Miss Virginia Vincent, who in addl- tion to being one of the caption writers of the strip is also the model for Pretty Polly, was the spokesman on their re- turn. Laura N. Johnson, the artist and the original of “Mitzi,” was bustled into a taxi at the pier by her adoring husband (not the “Goofer’) and given just the chance to call out that what- ever Virginia said was her belief too. Jeannette Kiekintveldt, the other “Jay” and also the Adelaide, stayed home to keep the news warm. “One thing we did find that seems new, unless somebody says they aren’t, are the gold linked knee garters intro- duced and worn by the mannequins at Premet’s,” declared Miss Vincent, “I am almost afraid to make that asser- tion for fear that some of the stores introduced them after I sailed. If you haven’t seen them, they are bands of gold links caught with a clasp and they are worn below the knee. The smart Parisienne has sets to match, in- cluding a necklace and a bracelet.” Armed with credentials and vouched for by the leading fashion experts in America, the Mitzi girls witnessed the showings of the great couturiers. These are attended with the pomp and exclu- | siveness of a reception at Buckingham Palace or an audience with the Pope with an added air of secrecy. The morning showings are for pa- trons only and show the seasonal styles. Those in the afternoon are for the for- eign buyers and show the fall models. Woe betide the person who ventures to produce a pencil to make a note or draw a line. Out he goes and off with his head. Ma foi, he is a thief—he would steal the soon-to-become-famous designs of the house. He is a pirate— a style pirate, and for this type of criminal the guillotine or electric chair is too comfortable! Even charming Mme. Charlotte of the lavender-tinted hair, who presides at Premet, would lose her poise under such an indignity. To guard against any possible boot- legging of styles, those ordered by buy- ers from the original model displayed are put upon the boat train in care of @ special messenger only one-half hour it is true that the before the boat sails, even though the ordering is done two weeks or more before. Not even the cleverest dress- maker in Paris could copy it then. So you see these styles really come to America first—even before they are known ip Paris. The Paris models gave Miss Vincent another chuckle. “A buyer will decide upon a frock then make suggestions,” she explained. “He will order a copy made with a pleat added at the side or the draping drawn to the front, or a few tucks at the shoulder. He will change the entire appearance of the frock but still pronounce it a Paris model.” The couturier is perfectly satisfied to let it go that way. At the finish the couturier acquires the francs and the buyer gets the Paris label. “The trouble with us is that we are label mad. There is not enough style discrimination with our buying public,” said “Polly.” If you are thinking of making a “flying trip” to Paris and intend to re- stock your wardrobe in a few days, be warned that it can’t be done. There is no such thing as going to the racks, selecting a frock in the afternoon and wearing it for dinner that evening. Not unless you wish to wear an ill-fitting garment. There is no style where there is no fit and what does one go to Paris for anyway? This thing of misfit of course may be traced to the difference between the American and the French figure. Jean Patou was the first couturier to realize that French clothes looked dif- ferent on Americans. He imported some time ago a number of American models so that the American buyers could better visualize whether his cre- ations would be accepted by women here. But the smartest Parisians would never buy clothes at a depart- ment store or a specialty shop. They must be made at a grand couturiers and be made to order. And that takes time, even in France, where the needle is supposed to be piled a little more expertly, a little more swiftly, a little more deftly than anywhere else. The variety of styles, the accurate sizing and the resulting fit of gar- ments shown in our department stores all over the country stand alone. While Paris is acknowledged the cen- ter of mode creating, certainly this country should realize that it is the center of mode-reproduction. That is something that the American woman should appreciate to the fullest ex- tent for it brings authentic copies of models to within walking distance. The things that ere so easily pro- curable, that are right under your nose, so to speak, are often underesti- mated. It’s the old story of the unat- tainable being thought the most de- sirable. As it is, many women are far more content with the fashions that they can buy right around the corner than any of those they might seek and find in Paris. Hats, of course, must be fitted to the head. Two fittings are necessary be- fore the line becomes just right; the crown is tight over the head. The brim is cut not too wide nor too narrow. Both “Mitzi” and “Polly” are frank- ly glad to be back. “Please tell your readers for us,” begged Miss Vincent, “that if they are going on a honeymoon, Paris is won- derful. Or if they wish to linger on a cafe terrace and see the sunset re- flected in their Apollinaris water it will be worth the trip. But if they wish to shop, there are no more smart- er styles on the Bois de Boulogne than there are in your city.” SOCIAL WORKER DIES See lore oS] Young or Old you'll enjoy the “Who’s Who’’ Contest in next SUNDAY’S POST $506 in Cash Prizes. ay all | old, afternoon in Casualty Hospital as the 4)| taker FROM STAIRWAY FALL ‘Coroner Told Cause of Death at Casualty Hospital Re- sult of Accident.

PURE FOODS ™ omy Advertisements of Products That Are Free From Adulterations and That Have Complied With the High Standards Right Foods to Buy Better Summertime Health | Largely Due to Fruit Juices Orange Juice Most Healthful But All Contain Curative Organic Acids and Nuritive, Beneficial Salts. By DR. DANIEL R. HODGDON, Formerly president of Hahne- mann Medical College and hospital of Chicago, director Industrial Educational Bureau and ‘director School of Technology, Newark; lecturer Newark Institute of Arts and Sciences and member of the faculty of New York University and New Jersey State Normal School, The increased use of fruit juices common to this time of the year has a decidedly beneficial effect upon people’s systems. The opinion has often been DR. DANIEL R. HODGDON. expressed that the improvement in gen- eral health during the summer is in part due to greater use of this type of food. All fruit Juices have a curative action on the system because of the organic acids which they contain and because of the nutritive and beneficial salts present in them, which the system readily absorbs. Nearly all fruit juices have a steriliz- ing effect upon the intestines, thereby benefiting the system. Orange juice stands perhaps at the head of the list, because of the large quantity of curative matter which it contains. The use of this and other fruit juices in cases of fevers and other illnesses is to be encouraged; they fur- nish nourishment without overtaxing the digestive organs and help, in addi- tion, by the sterilizing property that has been mentioned. All fruit juices tend to reduce high blood pressure. The juices seem to be more beneficial even than the fruits themselves in stimulating the bowels to action and elimination of uric acid. Huckleberry juice has been used with a considerable amount of benefit in cases of diarrhea or intestinal catarrh. Grape juice and cherry juice seem to be especially beneficial in cases of constipation, while the juice of the pineapple may be said to be a medicine closet in itself for the stomach which is upset or weak. Pineapple juice is one of the most soothing foods that can be taken by the patient suffering from indigestion. The juices of the huckleberry and of the blueberry may be readily used, it appears, in cases of diabetes, where no sugar is added. All catarrhal conditions of the all- mentary canal are decidedly helped by the use of fruit juices. The fruit sugar found in fruit juices is the most economical source of heat and energy for the body that can be found. This sugar requires little or no effort of digestion to be assimilated. Nearly all fruit juices contain a supply of the vitamni OC, besides mineral salts. Of coursé, they do not contain all the necessary food values required to maintain a healthy, vigorous system, but they do contain some of the most vital elements for health. Orange juice, for instance, a type of food which is growing more popular every day, is valuable not only for the mineral mat- ter. which it contains, but for its large quantity of vitamin C. The method used today of extracting the guice from the fresh fruit is highly commendable. It is a distinct contribu- tion to the health of communities that fresh orangeade may be obtained prac- tically everywhere. The use of fresh fruit juices in the home at meal time during the hot | months has everything to recommend TESTED RECIPES Baked Ham. Here ts a very. nice recipe for baked ham: Take one slice of smoked ham, 1 inch thick. Rub on the ham 1 tablespoon- ful of Coleman’s dry mustard. Place in a pan that it nearly fills, cover with milk and bake in a moderate oven until tender. Serve with baked potatoes. Breaded Pork Chops. Prepare and season the chops; beat the yolks of 2 eggs, dip the chops in the yolks and then in cracker dust. Fry in fat. Serve with tomato sauce. Macaron!l With Corn. One lb. packed macaroni (cooked), two tablespoonfuls butter, two cups corn, two cups milk, two eggs. Fried Macaroni. Put desired amount of cooked maca- roni into a frying pan with butter, pepper and salt to taste. Two or three eggs may be fried with the macaroni if desired. This is easily prepared, delicious and full of food value. Spiced-Cheese Pudding. 2 slices stale bread. 2 eggs. 14 teaspoon salt. 1 cup milk. 1 cup cottage cheese. Y% teaspoon soda. 2 Cup sugar. cup seeded raisins. teaspoon allspice. 4 teaspoon mace. teaspoon cloves. Cut the bread into cubes and place in a greased baking dish. Beat the yolks and whites of the eggs separately. Blend with yolks the milk, salt and sugar, and cheese, to which the soda has been added. Add the spice and chopped raisins and lastly fold in the stiffly-beaten whites, Pour this mixture over the cubes of bread.and bake like a custard in a moderate oven. If desired the white of 1 egg may be beaten separately, sweetened with 1 tablespoon of sugar, and spread over the top of the pudding just before re- moving it from the oven. Corn muffins or cold rice cooked dry and flaky may be _ substituted for bread. Old Dutch Cheese Cake. The rule is the same as that for the | filling of the cottage cheese pie, except that the milk should be reduced to one- half cup, two tablespoons cornstarch should be used, and the flavoring us- ually is of lemon juice and rind with mace or nutmeg. White corn sirup may be substituted for part of the sugar if the milk is reduced in propor- tion. Bake 25 minutes in a moderate oven or until brown. This makes a very firm custard. Pineapple Salad. Place lettuce leaves in an individual salad dish. Place on each 1 slice of pineapple, 1 piece of cream cheese in the center, some ground nuts, and serve with mayonnaise. Tapioca Pudding. Use 5 tablespoonfuls one-minute tapioca with 1 quart of milk. Boil a minute, add the yolks of 2 eggs, 1 cup sugar. Bedt the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth. Fold in last. Add some pineapple cut up fine. Put in the ice | box and serve with ladyfingers or other | dainty cakes. Chocolate Filling. Melt 2 cups of milk with 2 squares of chocolate, cook with 1. cup granu- lated sugar until dissolved. Add 1 tablespoonful of corn Starch to thicken and spread on: the cake. Oranges D’Abbott. A delicious dessert and most palat- | able suggestion for collations. Remove the peel, break oranges into small sections and cut crosswise, add three to four dashes bitters to each portion, sweeten to suit.

These juices add to meals a desir- able food supply and energy which the body needs. Even though the contribu- tion is small, it is valuable. Fruit juices might well appear on the table at least twice a day, or even three times. Of course, fruit juices should be pro- duced under the most sanitary condi- tions and carefully bottled. When such methods are followed the product has everything to recommend it. (Copyright, 1927, Food Investigation Service.) LARGEST DELICATESSEN IND.C. Broadway Co., Now Doing $100,000 Business, Had Small Start. In June, 1918, William E. Beall start- ed the Broadway Delicatessen in a small basement room at the corner of Eighth and I streets, just a little more than a block from his present location. At that time he was “boss,” and the only employe. A little more than a year later Beall opened at 714 K street northwest, paying a rental of $250 monthly. His gas bill alone was $150 & month, and now he employs 25 peo- ple. Six years later Mr. Beall bought the building at the corner of Eighth and K streets northwest, remodeling and fixtures amounting to $25,000. The business has more than doubled itself in his new home -n volume, he is doing more than 65100,000 annually, and when asked to what he attributed his success, Mr. Beall said, “Experi- ence. Without experience, capital would have been of very little good to me.” “We cook our food just exactly as it is cooked in the home,” he said, “except that it is done on a much larger scale, and we try to make our customers feel at home when they come in here. In addition to selling well-cooked foods over the counter by the pound, to save the busy housewife time and trouble of cooking, the Broadway Delicatessen serves lunches and meals to hundreds of people every week day, and at rea- sonable prices.” Although Sunday would be a busy day for this line of business, Mr. Beall closes his business on Sunday and Christmas Day, giving that time to his employes.

A proposal of the Mexican treasury department to set aside a fund of 5.,- 000,000 pesos with which to stanilize peso exchange and maintain silver coins on a parity with gold, is under consideration of President Calles, ac- cording to advices yesterday to the De- partment of Commerce from commer- cial.attaches at Mexico City. The central idea he plan is to retire an equal amount of silver coins, which will be melted down and sold as bar silver. As the metal value in gold of Mexico silver coins is approximate- ly less than 50 per cent of the face value, the value of the coins in relation to gold fluctuates considerably from time to time, depending on general conditions and existing stocks of sil- ver and gold coins in circulation. It is proposed to make up the 5,000,- 000-peso fund by withdrawing 2,000,- 000 pesos from the irrigation fund, 1,000,000 from the highway fund, 1,000,000 from savings of the treasury department and 1,000,000 from pay- ments of the federal government to the Bank of Mexico. Part of the fund would be available to regulate peso ex- change and maintain the gold standard. J. C. Woodson Honored. J. C.

NOW READY FOR BUILDING Development of a tract of nine acres is being sponsored by Clyde B. Asher, president of the Asher Fireproofing Co. The property, located at the end of Upton street, adjoining Rock Creek Park, is subdivided into nine sites ranging in footage from 19,600 square feet to 61,300 square feet. While within only a fifteen-minute drive from the White House, these sites, bordered by spacious estates on one side and the park on the other, are secluded from the beaten path. Building and other restrictions placed on the property by the present owner are declared to insure the development of an exclusive colony of select homes. The property has been improved and partly landscaped and is ready for building. Some of the larger lots, having a depth of 250 or more feet, taper into the park. Several palatial homes now surround the property, including Ar- bremont, the estate of Maj. Henry P. Erwin; Cedarcrest, the home of Mr. Asner, and 2600 Upton, the home of former Representative Swagar SHerley. The location, known as Lennore Ter- race, is reached by turning off Connec- ticut avenue at Upton and continuing to the end of Upton street. The sites are being offered by Mr. Asher, owner, and several prominent realty brokers.

ALSO TO USE AVIATION By F. W. PATTERSON. Painting a bright future for trust department business of financial insti- tutions Frederick P. H. Siddons, secre- tary American Security & Trust Co., took his listeners forward 50 years in one of the principal addresses on the program of the annual convention of the American Institute of Banking, which ended yesterday in Detroit. “A bank of the future in developing its trust business,” said Mr. Siddons, “will advertise naturally in the news- papers, and will use other forms of publicity.” “Fifty years from today your bank will be so organized and will have be- come so departmental in character that each will be nearly considered a sepa- rate company in itself,” said the trust company executive. “The business ex- tension and advertising department will be no exception, and that depart- ment will have within itself separate departments for its operating purposes. Its work will be so intensified that when any trust campaign is planned it will require the executive minds of a body of men in the department as large as your board of directors, and yet this particular facility will only be still a part of your institution.” Manager to Become Marvel. “The most important place in the department will naturally be the head. Your business development manager will have become a marvel, for he will have been able to have sold the entire membership of his bank that ‘it pays to advertise,’ and that concrete results can be secured from advertising trust services. He will be looked upon as one of the leading spirits of the institution. Today many of our institutions try to select types that will be like this, but they have been very much in the mi- nority.” “Many banks and trust companies have waited too long to select the proper persons for the handling of this particular work. Fortunately this de- partment of the future will have such trained men and women in the organi- zations that they will rank with the best in your entire organizations and be capable of filling any banking posi- tion, “When the business development manager of the future makes a request for his advertising budget for trust services it will only be then a question as to how much of an appropriation is necessary to be used to develop this particular phase of the bank’: busi- ness.” Alsn Will Use Aviation. Predicting that in the near future aviation will bear its share of the de- velopment of trust business, Mr. Sid- dons said “This is no idje prediction, as we are due for a more rapid growth in the mechanical and scientific flelds of endeavor, which will cause business matters to be transacted even more rapidly than they are today, and pros- pects will probably be greeted by the salesman at his home in one section of the State and be taken by plane to an- other section, where he may desire to have such an institution handle his trust business. In turning to the present time, the speaker pointed out. that the main thought of all trust companies and banks today must naturally be “How can its business be increased at a mini- mum cost with a reasonable profit?” Most banks of today realize that educa- tion is one of the primary means and this belief is not alone that the pub- lic must be educated, but the entire staff must become acquainted with the trust services in order to successfully put across any campaign which has been worked out. In conclusion, Mr. Siddons said, “In looking into the past trust companies have not been organized for so many years, and it has only been within the past fifteen years that trust companies realized in order to grow they must pass through the foundation stage, en- ter into the publicity stage, and place the latter upon its proper foundation in order to get into the educational Stage upon which it is now entered.” Acacia’s Business Grows. New business written by the Acacia Mutual Life Association during the first six months of 1927 totaled $26,- 250,000, representing a net gain in business of $18,440,000, according to announcement yesterday by William Montgomery, president: The increase in new. business during the past six months as compared to the corresponding period a year ago when $19,930,000 was written, amount- ed to 6,320,000. The net gain in business for the first six months of 1926 totaled $12,600,000. Business of the company in force on June 30, amounted to $244,660,000. Aids in Winning First Prize. The publicity display, by the Wash- ington chapter, at the convention of the American Institute of Banking, whose sessions ended yesterday, played a big part in the selection of the dis- trict which includes Washington, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia, as the winner of the first prize, for a display of the most helpful publicity to the institute, and the publication of the best year book. Miss Rose Royce, Washington Loan & Trust Co., was chairman of the local Publicity committee in the year which ended May 31, and A. O. Dooley, Commercial National Bank, was editor in chief of the year book of the chapter. Predicts Business Improvement. Current business conditions show enough favorable factors to warrant the expectation of considerable improve- ment in the last half of the year, ac- cording to Brookmire Economic Service, Inc. Better prices for farm products have arrested the recession of farm in- come, railroad buying is expected to continue at a satisfactory level in view of the ability and desire of the rail- roads to keep property in good shape, and foreign purchases of lumber ex- ceed those of a year ago. The recent favorable trend in our foreign trade figures show the improved economic condition of foreign buyers. These factors should make for better busi- ness, the economists believe.

New York, July 16 (A.P.).—Three per- sons were killed by lightning and dam- age running into thousands of dollars was done by a storm which broke over New York tonight, bringing at least temporary relief from the three-day siege of heat. The storm which broke shortly after 6 o’clock raged for more than two hours, during which torrents of water fell to the accompaniment of blinding flashes of lightning. The temperature, which stood at 86 at 5 p. m., had dropped 11 degrees within three hours. Louls Abinoliffi, 52, and his. wife, Antoinette, 48, were killed in the base- ment of their home in Tompkinsville, Staten Island, when lightning struck an extension light cord with which they were seeking a gas leak. Patrolman William Alchermes, 30, of Brooklyn, was killed on the street near his home when struck by a bolt of lightning. Trafiic was delayed and in some in- stances brought to a standstill when torrents of water poured into subways and flooded streets making them im- passible for trolley cars and automo- biles. Police reserves were called to handle crowds at Coney Island when thou- sands who had been seeking relief from the heat on the beach stampeded into subway and elevated stations in a mad rush to escape the storm. Lightning Delays Trains. Train movement out of the Grand Central Station was delayed for an hour at the height of the storm when a bolt of lightning paralyzed power lines. Ten more deaths were caused today by the heat that has baked the Eastern States for the last five days, bringing the total deaths since the heat wave began to more than 70. Four of today’s deaths were in New York City, two were in Philadelphia, ‘Cool Air Held Coming From the Black Hills Washington will literally be able to “Keep Cool with Coolidge” begin- ning tomorrow, Charles L. Mitchell, the official weather forecaster, an- nounced last night. Cool air from the region of the President’s summer home in_ the Black Hills of South Dakota is moving toward Washington, Mr. Mitchell said, and by tomorrow it should have loosed the clammy grip of the current heat wave. For. two days, at least, the forecaster said, the weather here should be fairly comfortable. Thundershowers will come late this afternoon or tonight, Forecaster Mitchell said, and until they arrive the city probably will continue to swelter in an abnormally high temperature. J and there was one each in Newark, N. J., Ansonia, Conn., Buffalo, N. Y., and Woonsocket, R. I. Heat Today Predicted. Continued warm weather was pre- predicted for tomorrow, and _ the sweltering public derived less comfort from the weather man’s “probable showers” than it did two days ago when the same prediction failed to ma- terfalize. Temperatures continued to hover close to 90 degrees, and, while in many sections, like New York City, the tem- perature was somewhat lower than yesterday, the humidity did its part to make the combination as unbearable as before. The heat deaths by sections for the past five days follow: Greater New York, 15; New Jersey, 16; Pennsylvania, 16; Upper New York, 13; Connecticut, 5; Massachusetts, 5; New Hampshire, 1; Rhode Island, 1; total, 72. SECOND APOLOGY BY FORD PUTS END TO SAPIRO'S SUIT CONTINUED FROM PAGE l. sonally in the publication of the articles and has no personal knowledge of what was said in them,” read the statement upon which settlement of the protracted lawsuit was based. “He, of course, deprecates greatly that any facts that were published in a periodical so closely associated with his name in the minds of the public should be untrue.” Without mentioning Morgan’s name, this explanation of the publication of the alleged libelious articles was made: “They were prepared and written by a contributor to the Dearborn Indepen- dent whose works and writings have in the past appeared in various periodicals in this country. They were accepted at their face value by the Dearborn Pub- lishing Co. “It has since been found that inac- curacies of fact were present in the articles, and that erroneous conclusions were drawn from these inaccuracies by the writer. | “As a result, Sapiro may have been injured and reflections cast upon him unjustly. Statements Withdrawn. “Such statements as may have re- flected upon Mr. Sapiro’s honor or in- tegrity, impugned his motives or chal- lenged the propriety of his personal or professional actions are withdrawn. “Likewise the charge that thére was a Jewish ring which sought to exploit the American farmer through coopera- tive associations is withdrawn.” Sapiro has devoted virtually his entire professional career to the work of farmers’ cooperative § as- sociations, and, it was testified at the first trial of the libel suit, has acted in his legal capacity in the organization of cooperatives virtually throughout the United States and Can- ada In the Ford Dearborn Independent recantation he found possibly his greatest satisfaction in this statement: “If the advancement and develop- ment of cooperative marketing has suf- fered by reason of the publication of these articles, then we sincerely re- gret it. “We recognize cooperative marketing holds promise of substantial relief to the farmer and grower. “I have suffered @ very great loss personally,” said Mr. Sapiro as he smilingly announced the terms of the settlement. “I still have my training in the law, however, and I am going to start all over again and rebuild.” He reiterated he felt certain Mr. Ford had not been aware of the things that had been done in his name, and said again that his chief interest in having the automobile manufacturer take the witness stand at the trial, which re- sulted in a mistrial when a Detroit newspaper interviewed a woman juror, ‘was to have from Ford himself the statement of lack of knowledge of the details of the publication of the of- fensive articles. “I am very greatly pleased that I have helped a great big man get right and that I have helped the Jewish people set themselvés properly before the world,” Mr. Sapiro continued. “I am gratified further that I have helped cooperative marketing to get general support and indorsement from the leaders of thought in the United States.” Final Phases by Phone. | | The final phases of the settlement negotiations were carried on by long distance with Clifford B. Longley, gen- | eral counsel for the Ford interests, and Earl J. Davis, former United States Attorney General, representing Ford and the weekly in Detroit, where Will- iam Henry Gallagher spoke for Sapiro, and M. Sapiro and Ansorge and Kost- man sitting together in Chicago. From Detroit it was announced that Gallagher and Longley had signed pa- pers for the discontinuance of the lawsuit. They will be filed in Fed- eral District Court at Detroit. The suit was based upon statements appearing in a series of articles pub- lished in the Dearborn Independent in 1925 and 1926, Previously there had been a series of articles concerning the “International Jew.” When Sapiro’s name appeared it was linked with an alleged plan of an international group of Jews to obtain control of agricul- ture. ;' Reed Has No Comment. Kansas City, July 16 (A.P.).—Sen- | ator James A. Reed said here today Sapiro libel suit. The senator, who was chief counsel for Henry Ford when the suit came to trial, said he had not been informed of the settlement and had not participated in the negotia- tions. St. Louis, July 16 (A.P.).—Despite Henry Ford’s recent apology for a se- ries of articles in his Dearborn Inde- pendent of anti-Semitic character, two St. Louis theaters, owned by the same management, last night eliminated mo- tion pictures of the automobile manu- facturer from news reels upon the complaint of four Jewish patrons. The news reels showed Mr. Ford and his son, Edsel, inspecting an airplane. The scenes were foliowed by a brief excerpt from Ford's statement of apol- ogy, and were followed in turn by more pictures of the automobile man- ufacturer. After witnessing the reel, four Jew- ish patrons arose from their seats and complained to the management, charg- ing that “the pictures constituted little more than an advertisement for Ford’s forthcoming new car,” and they saw no reason why he should be so fa- vored.

Lengel tried to console them. The bailiff had ordered. the courtroom: cleared of spectators. “There is no justice!’ cried broken chief. ; Lengel turned suddenly to Sheriff Ed Gibson, who had come to escort him back to county jail. “IT am as innocent as any man that ever was in this courtroom,” he said. Then he walked off in the company of the sheriff, and his wife and daughter followed. The conviction of Lengel came today on the anniversary of the assassination of Mellett, who was killed at the heighth of a newspaper campaign to stop what he believed to be an alliance between the police department and the Canton underworld. Unless Judge Frank Clevenger grants a motion for a new trial Lengel will join Patrick McDermott, Louis Mazer, Ben Rudner and Floyd Streitenberger at Ohio penitentiary. These four, men were sentenced before him. All but Mazer were. given life terms, and he gained leniency for turning States evi- dence. Judge Clevenger announced. he would hear the motion for a new trial on July. 22. Payment of $17,000 To Flee Prison Told Minnéapolis, July 16 (A.P.).—"Cadil- lac Jim” McGraw, also known as James Cellan, told local police today he paid $17,000 in good cold cash” to walk out of the State Reformatory at Granite, Okla., but then admitted he is “prone to exaggeration.” “rT had $17,000 when I went into that reformatory and it cost me every cent of it to get out, so I left there broke,” McGraw told questioners, but he di@® not detail the manner of the expendi- ture.

Members of the club did not think of going to his rescue at unce, because of his statement that he could swim. When, however, it became obvious that Poore was in trouble, James Wall- ing and E. W. Gantt, members of the Restmore Club, plunged in after him. They located his body under the water and attempted to bring it to the sur- | face, but were unsuccessful. Later other swimmers joined in the search, but by that time the body had been carried away by the current and could not be found. Harbor police were notified, and dragged in the vicinity an hour, before Donaldson finally located the body. Clarence Smith, negro, 28 years old, a soldier on duty at the Washington Barracks, drowned in the Eastern Branch about 4:30 yesterday afternoon when he went swimming at the foot of South Capitol street. Harbor police dragged the branch for his body until darkness precluded .fur- ther efforts, but were unable to find his body. — Mussolini’s Wheat Better Than Others Forli, Italy, July 16 (A.P.).— The wheat crop on the small farm which Preimer Mussolini possesses at Carpena has given splendid results, yielding about fourteen quintals an acre, as compared with some neighboring farms which used only ordinary fertilizer and produced only seven quintals. The most modern system of cultivation and fertilizers were used on the premier’s farm.

Johnson or Thurston to Oppose Chicago in Game Today. By FRANK H. YOUNG (Staff Correspondent of The Post.) {ICAGO, July 16.—Judging from © the number of fans at today’s game and the size of the crowds attracted by the Washington Team in other cities, the runaway race being staged by the Yankees is going to prove unprofitable to the other clubs before the season ends. It seems to be first or nothing with the fans. The players themselves con- sider the runner-up berth quite an honor, and the American League is giving the fans quite a scrap for this second place, but the cash customers are not interested. At this writing, Washington, Philadelphia, Detroit and Chicago are closely grouped, with a stirring four-cornered battle being staged, but the battle is being fought before empty seats. Of cuorse, there can be but one win- ner and the dpoe indicates that only a miracle, train-wreck or something similar will prevent the Yanks from crossing the line first in a common canter. This puts it squarely up to the Magnates, but apparently all they can do is to shrug their shoulders and reiterate their helplessness. If Miller Huggins wants a player he generally obtains him for the simple re Y that the Yankee bank roll larger than those of the other clubs. And, with the Yankees’ “home-run twins” and its Winning combination being the only drawing card, the financial conditions of the other club treas- urles are “getting no better fast.” With the Yankees outclassing the league and with what might almost be termed a winning combination sitting on the bench waiting for a chance, in- dications are that Ruth, Gehrig and company are likely to be favorites for years to come—all of which does not augur well for the future of the Ameri- can League as a business proposition. Walter Johnson, who had pitched but two innings against the Tigers when rain stopped Thursday’s game, is likely to get the assignment for today, other- wise, Hollis Thurston probably will fling against his former mates. Man- ager Schalk is expected to call on Ted Lyons. Roger Peckinpaugh, veteran short- stop, has been back in the Chi-Sox line-up for the past two weeks and is playing brilliantly, both afield and at bat. Bill Hunnefield, who for a while was holding down the regular berth, started slipping and Peck’s re- turn to the game was supposed to be but a temporary shift. Indications now are that it will be many a day before Hunnefield returns to the line-up. Outfielder Johnny Mostil, who shocked the baseball world last spring by his attempt to commit Suicide at. the White Sox training camp, has been working out with Schalk’s team. He is now on the voluntarily retired list and lives at Whiting, Ind., only about 20 miles away. It is understood that Johnnie will take the next road trip with the Chi-Sox. “ The gashes on Mostil’s left wrist have completely healed and with no bad ef- fects, but they were responsible for an- other injury which is proving Johnnie’s greatest handicap. While his injured wrist was immune to feeling, it seems he accidentally put it in boiling water and this scald-wound prevents him from properly gripping his bat. He ex- pects to be able to get back in the ‘ game before the season ends. Tribe Bows in 2 Games To Red Sox, 3-2 and 5-4 Cleveland, Ohio.

Special to The Washington Post. | C_"oroent July 16—As a trading proposition, the deal which sent Buddie Myer to the Red Sox in exchange for “Topper” Rigney, did not prove to be a wise move for the Na- tionals, but it indirectly resulted in the discovery of Bob Reeves, so that the Washington team was.the heavy winner in the exchange. Any baseball man will tell you that a team without a good shortstop wil. not get very far and the Nationals’ recent spurt may be attributed largely to the fact that Reeves, when finally given a trial, made good with a capital G. When Roger Peckinpaugh showed that he had outlived his usefulness and became so feeble afoot that he no longer could cover the territory allotted him, Manager Harris thought that in Buddie Myer he had just the man for the job, and was not worried. Myer, however, proved a square peg in a round hole. He was a good hitter, but was weak in fielding, especially wita deuble plays in sight. Finally he was traded for Rigney, Harris figuring that the veteran, although a lighter hitter than Myer, would more than make up this difference in attack with his better defense. Rigney played well for a brief spell, but he finally “flivvered” and Reeves was given a trial on the basis that he couldn’t be any worse than his predecessors. Harris now is straining his arm pat- ting himself on the back at the wis- dom of his move, for Reeves has shown himself to be a real short fielder and better still, he is hitting frequently and timely. In fact, the latest aver- age showed him leading all other short- stops in the American League with the Willow, with a mark of over .300. Reeves is as lively as a cricket on his feet and this enables him to go to both sides and back for many a drive which has “hit” labeled on it. He 1s a youngster with plenty of nerve and is not playing for any records. He goes after all balls and bobs up with many which the ordinary player would not even have attempted to snare. Throughout the circuit, Reeves’ arm is attracting much attention. The way he throws out runners Is a sight beauti- ful to behold. Cleveland thought it had the “daddy of ’em all” in Short- stop Joe Sewell, but, after seeing Reeves’ throwing, the Tribe midget was placed second on the list without reservations. According to some experts, it will not be long for Reeves to be rated as the best player tn the game at covering the ground between sec- ond and third, despite his youth. Charley Hickman, former National and now a Cleveland scout, sat in the press box in one of the games with the Indians last week and almost wept because he had passed Reeves up. “I watched him play with Georgia Tech at different times for tr e years,” said Hickman, “and I did not think he would do. Then I saw him in action lest year and went to grab him only to find that Joe Engel had beat me to it.” “My experience has shown me that. when a youngster starts slowly and ot Harris End BOB REEVES. then leaps to the front almost over- night, he'll keep on improving, and I believe that Reeves will continue to play better for the next two or three years That will put him at the top and he’ll stay there for a long time,” Hickman concluded. All of which means that Manager Harris’ shortstop worrles appear to be over for many moons. Reeves was born in Chattanooga, Tenn., twenty-three years ago last June 4, and has since grown to just below the 6-foot mark. He weighs 75 pounds and is all bone and muscle, He started playing the na- tional game in a Sunday school league in Chattanooga, later per- forming at Central Prep, and still later at McCallie High. He graduated to Georgia Tech, and while with the Golden Tornadoes starred in four sports for four seasons, playing shortstop on the diamond, half- back on the gridiron, guard on the bas- ketball courts and throwing the javelin on the track team. During his four years at Tech—one as a yearling and three on the varsity nine—he not only mad a r32putasion for@imself as a flashy fielder but also was a Slugger. He joined the Nationals on May 20 of last year, needing one more credit to give him is “sheep- skin.” During that college season he had crashed out fifteen home runs, in- cluding a trio in one game against Alabama. His stick mark for the year was .429. When Bob joined the Harrismen he was told that his natural way of hitting was wrong, and he was the subject of much experimenting. These changes did no good; in fact, they changed him from a slugger to a slap hitter. Now he ts gradually drifting back to his natural style, and a glance at the box scores will show quite a number of extra-base blows as a result. Thus Harris’ quest for a shortstop ended like that of the man who went all over the world searching for a four- leafed clover and found one on his own doorstep upon his return. McGraw Is Still on Trail Of a Jewish Ball Player Signing of Hebrew Star Would Be Shrewd Business Move, Giant Manager Declares. Cubs’ Pitching Praised. By JOHN J. McGRAW (Manager, New York Giants.) EW YORK, July 16.—A Pittsburgh fan, having learned that young Sidney Cohen is with the Giants for a try-out, wants to know if I am still determined in my quest for a good Jewish ball player. He is also kind enough to add that my past efforts in that direction would indicate that I am a better sport than was Henry Ford before he discovered his mistake and made his now famous apology. Yes, I am still in search of a Jewish ball player and I am almost convinced that I will have one wearing the New York uniform before the end of an- other season. Reports would indicate that Andy Cohen, Sidney’s older brother, is developing rapidly in the minor’ league where I sent him, and I will recall him just as soon as he seems to be ready. My efforts are not’ particularly to show that I am a good sport. I think it would be good baseball business in many ways. A good ball player is an asset no matter what his creed or re- ligion. On top of that the Jewish fans are one of the biggest supporting elements in our game and it is but natural that for years they should long to see a star Jewish ball player on the field. I am more than anxious to encourage them. We haven’t had a really great one since Johnny Kling. There is no prejudice against Jewish players in the major leagues and l Jewish fans are convinced of that. As a matter of fact the Jews are the ones who have shgwn themselves good sports in baseball and I have had an excellent proof of it ever since I an- nounced my intention of securing a good player from among them if I had to scour the country. I have tried out several Jewish play- ers and the good sportsmanship of their followers is shown in the fact that not once have I been criticized for letting them go. The Jewish fans have recognized the failure of these men to make good and have not complained. They did not think they were good ball players simply because they weére Jews. The fact is the Jewish fans don’t want a Jewish player unless he is exceptionally good. Now there. is racial pride for you: It is also a high form of sportsmanship. I have never heard one of them com- plain of favoritism.’ I can’t imagine anything more nonsensical than favoritism on a ball club. The main idea is to win a pennant and no sensible manager would allow favorit- ism to interfere with that ambition. I have a lot of fun with the Jewish fans over my efforts to get a Jewish ball player, t’ »ugh. While watching Sidney Cohen the other day, I jokingly remarked to Louie Mann that if I developed a Star’‘in New York, I would insist on going fifty-fifty with him in the clothing business next fall. feel sure that the big majority of, “You might,” laughed Louie, “if 1 didn’t beat you to it.” This boy Sidney, by the way, has some earmarks of being a real ball player. He certainly can field beauti- fully. As to his hitting, of course, I do not know. Sidney is not signed with the Giants. He is with us simply for a tryout and is doing it at his own expense. In the meantime, we are beginning to get results: from our pitching staff and before this Western invasion is over, I have hopes of seeing the Giants in a contending position and fighting hard for the lead. The good sign came last week when we had. two pitchers—Fitzsimmons and Barnes score shut-outs in succession. Now, if you will look over the scores of the past month you will notice that the teams have climbed in exact pro- portion to the steadiness of their pitchers. The Chicago Cubs, for example, have played several games in which their pitchers allowed less than six hits. The club, even without as strong a punch as some others, has kept right along with the pitchers, The Cardinals have not suffered so much from bad pitching as from in- juries that have kept their star regu- lars out of the game. If you will scan the dope a little closer you will also notice that with very few exceptions the teams have slipped in proportion to the number of regulars out of the game. It is impossible almost to make a ma- chine work effectively with any one of the cogs missing. Our club has wobbled about from that cause much of the season. We have kept our punch, but that advantage has been offset by the unsteadiness of the pitching. From now on I look to see things work more smoothly. . . A club that makes an average of six runs a game, if blessed with anything like steady pitching, ought to keep well ovt in front. Often I have heard Matty say: “Just give me one run, fellows. That'll be enough.” All season we have been giving the pitchers am average of six runs, and still could not win consistently. Whenever you see those scores of 10 to 8 or 11 to 10—very frequent this season—you may know that the pitching on both sides has been unreliable. (Copyright, 1927, by the Syndicate.) ‘No. 5 Engine Co.

BY CHISOX, 7705S Braxton Weakens in 7th After Nation- als Tie Score. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17.) Coffman took Lisenbee’s place in the home half and his stay on the hill was short and not particularly sweet. After singles by Connally and Peckinpaugh and a double off Barrett’s bat had tied the score, Braxton went to the firing line and stopped the advance. The relief flingers then staged a nice hurling duel and it was just a question of which would weaken first. Con- nally walked the first two Washington batters in the third but managed to pull out of the hole, while it looked as though the Sox would break the tie in their sixth when Schalk’s opening double and Braxton’s error on Con- nally’s safe bunt put runners on third and second with none out. Flashy fielding behind Braxton's pitching helped him out of this tick- lish situation. On Metzler’s roller to Judge, the runners held their bases, while Bluege threw Schalk out at home on Peckinpaugh’s roller, which he snared almost over the base. Barrett then lofted to Goslin for the third out, After Ruel’s hit and Bluege’s third walk of the day had gone for naught in the seventh, the home team won the game. With one out, Falk doubled and he scored when Rice was slow returning Kamm’s single, the latter taking sec- ond on the throw-in. Marberry then relieved Braxton and Ward greeted him with a double which scored Kamm. With two out in the eighth, Speaker cracked out his second double and it looked as though he would score when Goslin lined to left. Falk, however, came in fast to make a sensational diving catch. After Judge had opened the ninth with a single, Lyons relieved Connally on the hill. Ruel, next up, was credited with a sacrifice when he tried to catch the Sox infield asleep and bunted. After Bluege’s out had advanced Judge to third. Reeves ended the game by grounding to Peck. FLYNN CHECKS PROFITS TO LUTHER’S DISGUST (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17.) This cruel conduct of the never-to- be-adequately-despised Flynn was merely the culmination of a campaign of mental frightfulness which he has been waging ever since he brought his remnant up here to train on Uncle Thomas’ wide-spread premises. From the first, Mr. Flynn has persecuted Uncle Thomas. For sev- eral days he forbade Dempsey to give public exhibitions, saying the crowds demanded a show, whereas he wanted Dempsey to go as he pleased. Uncle Thomas has moved among the waiting crowds like a stricken man, wagging his gray head, chewing his faded mustache and moaning about this injustice to the customers who were willing to pay $1 each. “And Mr. Flynn gets 50 cents out of every paid admission, too,” Uncle Thomas would say. “I can’t under- stand the man at all.” Then, a few days ago, when the board bills of the sparring partners and rub- bers fell due, and Mr. Flynn had need of cash resources, he waited until five minutes before ring time *> tell Uncle Thomas of his decision to resume the public demonstrations. A few mornings ago, when a big sign was discovered on the lake front, read- ing, “T. C. Luther’s Lake—5 Cents a Glass,” Mr. Flynn was suspected but when he was accused of this, he only made a sneering remark to the effect that Uncle Thomas would never let anybody have a drink of that lake for 5 cents. Mr. Flynn has been altogether nasty to Uncle Thomas, who is a fine old gentleman and one of the substantial men of the community. Not by squandering his substance on ale at $2 a hoist did Uncle Thomas come to have his name emblazoned in signs covering miles of forest, reading, “T. C. Luther; Keep Out,” and on dozens of lake- side cottages, reading “For Rent; T. C. Luther.” ; Mr. Luther became a man of sub- stance by hard work and consideration for the public. It is only for the con- venience of the public that he runs a roadside gasoline pump at the hotel and it is only for the comfort of the guests at this pitcher-and-bowl hotel that he maintains a bathtub in one of the outhouses, which guests are in- vited to frequent as often as may be desired or necessary at the purely nom- inal fee of $1 per bath. Still, Mr. Flynn has seen fit to nag him, and one night. last week his fiend- ish ingenuity prompted him to send a false rumor to Uncle Thomas that Dempsey, having tired of Saratoga Lake, intended to steal out of the place in the dead of the night and establish himself elsewhere, a rumor that kept Uncle Thomas sitting up at his bed- room window from midnight until dawn, wrapped in a blanket, silently watching the road. Some one with no respect for Uncle Thomas’ property, ona recent evening carried a dozen or so of his salt cellars and coffee cups down to the shore of the lake and chipped them into deep water with a mashie and suspicion has attached to Mr. Flynn in this case, too, because Mr. Flynn is the only golfer in camp who could hit a water melon with a skillet, to say nothing of hitting a teacup with a mashie. It was the implacable Pierpont Flynn who called the riff-raff of the press and pugilism about him as though for a solemn announcement today at noon, and, raising his hand to command at tention, said: ' “Gentlemen of the press and com- rades in the great sport of the roped arena, I hope you will all be present on the hotel Jawn this evening to wit- ness the fireworks and hear the patri- otic address by the local member of Congress in celebration of a great an- nual evyent—the turning of the table cloths.” Things like that have created a schism between Uncle Thomas Luther and the deplorable Flynn, and person- ally I believe Mr. Flynn deserves public censure.

PLANNED BY DEMPSEY Willing to Take Blows On Head for Chance at Sailor’s Ribs. HITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, Sara- toga Lake, N. Y., July 16 (A.P.). A new order of things prevails in the training camp of Jack Dempsey, once the mauler of Manassa, but now just another farmer champion attempt- ing to shatter ring precedent by fight- ing his way back to the heavyweight throne. Jack lives In complete seclusion in a tiny bungalow hidden in a deep wood more than a mile from Tom Luther’s hotel, the headquarters of newspaper- men and scene of the daily -raining sessions. Rarely does he come down }from the hills except for the workouts. Visitors and even close personal friends are barred from the cottage, and except for Jack’s cheery “Hello, fellows,” as he climbs the bag-punching platform at the start of the workout, and another joking “So long, girls, see you tomorrow” as he leaves when the day’s grind is over, the scribes rarely encounter the former title holder. None but newspaper men are admitted to the daily workouts. In the past the site of Dempsey’s training rounds always ‘was noted for the ease and availability of the big, good-natured champion, until lawsuits and process servers forced a new regime before the losing bat- tle with Gene Tunney last fall. To- day Jack is in even deeper seclu- sion, but for another reason. Knowing that the fight with Jack Sharkey in the Yankee Stadium on the night of July 21 must be a swan song in the game he loves if the tide of battle turns toward the Boston Lithua- nian, Dempsey has thrown himself into the conditioning effort with a grim. fierce determination that never marked his previous conditioning periods. For the first time in his career Jack has been constantly coached as he works, by Leo P. Flynn, veteran man- ager of boxers, who has taken over Dempsey’s affairs for the duration of the comeback. Flynn dictates what Jack shall eat, when he shall work and lay off and, during the boxing ses- sions, names every punch the former champion or his sparring mate throws before the blow is even started. Through it all Flynn is greatly aided by Demp- sey’s almost fanatical desire to regain the title, Flynn, too, has dictated the greatest change ever tried in Dempsey’s fighting style. In training for Tunney, Jack boxed on his toes in the belief that such a manner of attack brought the greatest speed and leverage into punches. Yet Gene stabbed Dempsey off balance with straight left-hand punches and crossed his right with enough effect to win the championship of the world. The Dempsey in training today is boxing on the balls of his feet, reducing the old bobbing weave to a mere sway- ing of the body as he plows into close quarters. Coming in, Jack catches the left- hand jabs he expects in plenty from Sharkey—sometimes with 2 protecting right hand, but more often with his chin. Once inside, Jack crashes both hands to the body in short punches that appear to have almost a paralyzing effect on his sparring mates. And that is the story of Dempsey’s preparation for the Sharkey fight in a nutshell. From the opening gong Jack will head for Sharkey’s ribs, will- ing to take whatever comes his way on the joprney for the privilege of smash- ing those sickening jolts into the for- mer tar’s stomach, As for the question of physical con- dition, Dempsey has approached as nearly perfect shape as an athlete 32 years old can hope to attain. He ap- pears to have acquired stamina and strength to go fifteen rounds at top speed. Although Jack’s weight ranges now around 200 pounds, Flynn expects him to enter the ring at 196, 6 pounds heavier than Jack was the day he fought Tunney and about 15 pounds above the weight he needed to whip Jess Willard for the title eight years ago. Believers in Signs Bet on Sure Things ee . *™eee Sealine elt A BASEBALL . SCANDAL WAS BY PITCHERS AND & GAMBLERS WORKING ¥% TOGETHER WITH THE By AL DEMAREE, Shortly after the big world series ex- pose of 1919, another gambling scandal broke out in the Pacific Coast League that resulted in the expelling of several well-known pitchers. The methods used by the players in the Coast League scandal were entirely different from the ones used by the “Black Sox” in 1919. There was no thought or attempt to intentionally “‘sluff” off a ball game. The pitchers merely worked in collu- sion with a crowd of gamblers in the grand stand who gave odds and bet with the spectators as to whether the batter would reach first base or not ard split their winnings with the pitcher. Working with the pitcher with the aid of a set of signs, the gam lers. could afford to give big odds, as they were betting on a sure thing. After they had placed their bets the rest was easy. Removing their hat signaled the pitcher to walk the next hitter. Crossing the right leg over the left was the sign to hit the following batter. Crossing the left leg over the right. told the twirler to lay the ball through the middle of the plate with medium speed to enable the hitter ‘o reach first on a base hit. One of the pitchers missed the signs one day and the gamblers squealed, which resulted in running the guilty athletes out of organized baseball.

No aspirant for heavyweight championship honors ever climbed into a ring with more assurance, expressed and otherwise, than the Boston Lithu- anian. If he whips Jack Dempsey on July 21 at the Yankee Stadium, there- by gaining the right to fight Gene Tunney for the title, it will merely be a fulfillment of Sharkey’s own pre- dictions. “Dempsey,” , Sharkey has said, “is made to order for me. “I will beat him sure. And Tunney? He will be easier than Dempsey.” Confidence, plus his unusual fight- ing equipment, has carried Sharkey rapidly up the fistic ladder in less than a year. When other heavyweights were side-stepping the so-called “dark men- ace,” Harry Wills, Shark’ ;,went about besieging promoters to match him with the negro. He finally convinced Hum- bert Fugazy to do it, but there were few if any experts who had any ideas Sharkey would upset the giant ex- stevedore at Ebbets Field last October. Ne: YORK July 16 (A.P.).—Confi- After crawling ‘rough the ropes that night, Sharkey stuck out his chin in an aggressive manner, gave Wills what is generally known as the “eye,” then walked over to the radio and declared: “Hello folks!” I'll lick Wills sure as shooting tonight!” It is well-known ring history that Sharkey did “lick” Wills, scientifically and thoroughly, although the decision went to him on a foul in thirteenth round. Sharkey was “made” by his decisive victory over Wills, who was thus elimi- nated from the picture as a heavy- weight contender a fortnight after the downfall of Dempsey before Tunney at Philadelphia. Again last winter, when Mike Mc- Tigue was on the high-road of a sensa- tional come-back, bowling over such men as Paul Berlenbach, Sharkey showed no fear of Michael's new-found punch, “It’s a shame to fight such an old man, but I’m willing to do it if no one else will,” Sharkey commented. Mike proved a tougher nut to crack than even Sharkey figured, ,khowever. The Bostonian won on a technical knock- out in the twelfth round. Had the fight been limited to ten, McTigue might have taken the decision. But Sharkey, at least, showed his ability to “take it” in this bout. absorbing Mike’s hardest wallops without even a hint of going down. Sharkey lacked none of his cus- tomary vocal vigor before his out- door battle with Jimmy Maloney, fellow Bostonian, at the Yankee stadium, in May. “Maloney always has been made to order for me,” Sharkey asserted. “I’ll knock him from here to Halifax.” It is @ matter of record that Sharkey iid just about that, polishing off the chubby Irishman with neatness and dispatch in five rounds. If confidence is half the battle, Shar- key, the experts agree, already has that part of it “in the bag.” Jones Visits Golting Shrine, Besieged by Admiring Scots Bobby Plays in Exhibition on Course of His Tutor Which Has Graduated Scores of Pros—To Sail on Saturday. ARNOUSTIE, Scotland, July 16 (A. ( P.).—Bobby Jones today made a golfing pilgrimage to this little town across the bay from St. Andrews, where he won the British open title yesterday. He planned it as a quiet visit to the old home of Stewart Maiden, the pro- fessional after whose game he pat- terned his play as a boy in his teens. But the trip turned out a triumphant journey of the champion to one of the most famous golfing districts in all this land of golf. The crowd which gathered at the! Carnoustie links, where Maiden used to play as a boy, was like the crowds during the early days of the St. Andrews tournament. It numbered 4,000 at the start of a friendly exhibition—a four- ballsmatch by Bobbie and three local amateurs, R. B. Cant, J. R. Hosie and J. D. Little—and swelled as the match progressed The golf itself was not the high- est type. After the terrific strug- gle of the last five days for his record championship score, Bobby's game was the inevitable let-up. He pulled his first drive into the burn at the right of the fairway, and the crowds along the fairway scattered. He drove another, and likewise pulled it. “The lad will kill somebody,” said a somewhat alarmed Scot near the tee- box. “Aye, but he'll not kill enough of them,” remarked another, evidently disturbed at the manner.in which the Carnoustians were pressing forward to view the champion’s game. Jones, his father and Maiden and a few friends motored from St. Andrews to Carnoustie this morning. At the ferry across the bay into Dundee, the skirl of the bagpipes welcomed him, and crowds gathered on the streets just to peer into his automobile. On the outskirts of Dundee Bobby could have dropped a golf ball and played it all the way into Carnoustie, for there is an almost continuous chain of seaside country. From Carnoustie scores of professionals have emigrated to the United States. Six of them. have been at Jones’ home club in Atlanta, and his pilgrimage today over the Carnoustie fairways filled his cup of golfing happiness to overflowing. The Jones party was met at the outskirts of Carnoustie by the provost. who corresponds to an American mayor, officially welcom- ed and entertained at luncheon, and finally escorted to the first tee by the town dignitaries. The party was photographed, and numerous speeches were made at the first tee, where crowds had been wait- ing an hour. After the match Jones visited. the home of Maiden’s mother. He returned to St. Andrews tonight. He has only two more golfing en- gagements, in London Thursday and Friday before starting for home Satur- day. The Thursday match is a friendly encounter at Sunningale with Tolley, Wethered and Harris. The other is a charity affair, in which Jones promised to participate last year. This will be played with Tolley, Kirkwood and J. H. Taylor at the Royal Automobile Club. SHARKEY IS FAVORED TO DEFEAT DEMPSEY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17.) in shape? I have been fighting during the winter and spring while Dempsey has been laying off. I'm set to go now.” Dempsey’s best chance of victory—in fact his only chance if one listens to most of the critics—is to carry a rush- ing, slugging attack to Sharkey in the early rounds, break through the sailor’s defense and weaken him for the finish- ing wallop. Sharkey’s prospects of winning, the same dopesters aver, will improve with every round the fight goes. They figure that if the rugged Lituanian weathers an early storm his superior boxing craft and speed, plus acknowledged punching power, will carry him to vic- tory on points and possibly to a knock- out.

It is a rec- ord for the league of failure to score. Although the Sarasota Tarpons, of the Florida State League, apparent- ly have not played bad _ baseball, they have gone the last 44 innings without a score. No Sarasota uni- form has crossed the plate since the sixth inning of a game with San- ford on July 11. In the past five games the team has. counted but three runs and made only 20 hits. Yesterday Orlando shut them out. After failing to score in the last three innings of its game July 11, the team failed to tally in four suc- teen games, one of them a four- teen-inning affair. Sane Bridgewater Eleven Has 7-Game Schedule Bridgewater, Va., July 16.—Bridge- water College has completed its foot- ball schedule, which calls for three home games and four out-of-town games.

B. will play here; Blue Ridge College will be met the following week; on October 22, Emory and Henry College will be played away; the team will journey to Roanoke College on November 4; American University will come here on November 12 and on November 19, the final game of the season will be at Shepherd College. Dempsey Is Medium Of Plunging by Noted Race Track Gamblers HITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, N. Y., July 16—With the Dempsey-Sharkey fight less than one week away there appears a consistent forcing down of the odds that prevailed in Sharkey’s favor. It is the race track money that is depreciating the Sharkey odds and hundreds of thousands of dollars, it is expectced, will be un- loaded in the East and West within the next three days. Chicago O’Brien, Midwest plunger; Tim Mara, New York bookmaker; Jack Joyner, the veteran from North Carolina; Maxie Blumenthal and Tom Shaw are some of the turf figures who are sinking the roll on Dempsey to win. : Remy Dorr, New Orleans gambler, a _ close friend of Dempsey, said today he would not go either way until he had seen Sharkey in action. It is almost certain that Remy will play Dempsey. Dempsey has always been a favorite with turfmen. He has spent a good deal of time around the various tracks, and his per- sonally appeals to horsemen who have met him. However, it is not alone sentiment that prompts the turf to back Dempsey in his big test. Sentiment plays a minor role in the placing of big bets. They believe that Dempsey will win. But these race track bettors are almost as bad as Jim Corbett at picking winners in fights. Tim Mara had a big play on Tun- ney a year ago, but that is about the only time this crowd won. They know horses, but fighters are something else again. ; HARTFORDS VS. CLINTONS.

Secret Boxing By Dempsey ~ Hinted Mystery Surrounds Cessation of Work by Fighter. Jack Will Rest Until Bout, Manager Flynn Says. HITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, Sara- toga Lake, N. Y., July 16 (A.P.), Jack Dempsey’s decision to sus- pend all boxing until he climbs into the Yankee Stadium ring next Thurs- day night to fight Jack Sharkey has developed into the camp mystery, with only rumors in sight as to the probable solution, Today Jack drove with Jerry Luvadis, his trainer, to Bennington, Vt., for dinner with friends there, He will re- turn to the camp tonight, and ig scheduled to start tomorrow on the road work and light exercises which Manager Leo P, Flynn announced early today would comprise the remainder ol! the training program for the former champion’s comeback effort. The most plausible rumor in camp today was that Jack would box in’ secret, hidden even from the newspaper men, at least twice more before leaving for New York Wednesday morning. In denying the report, Flynn in- sisted that Jack has pulled on training gloves for the last time before the Sharkey melee, and that the former titleholder will rest, conserve strength and energy, and do only enough light work to keep muscles limber and wind strong. The fact remains, however, that sev- eral sparring partners who thought te leave camp as soon as suspension ol boxing was announced were orderec to remain here for a day or two at least. Dave Shade will stay until Monday, along with Tilly Kid Herman, Marty Gallagher and Martin Burke. All arc fast, clever ring men and have been giving Jack some of his best workouts. Also additional guards were ordere« posted today around the bungalow ol the former champion in the woods, 4 mile from the training headquarters. Jack has been boxing there for @ hali hour each morning. ; Rumors that Dempsey had suf- fered a slight injury in training and was dissatisfied with his general showing in the public workouts, were officially denied. There also appeared the possibility that the intense heat of the past few days had sapped Dempsey’s strength 2 bit and that the danger of going stale was increasing with the high tempera- ture. Although no one had seen Jaci: on the scales, his weight was officially reported as 196 pounds, the exact figure he intends to carry into the ring against Sharkey. “Stand Back and Box,” Sharkey Trainers Advise New York, July 16 (A.P.).—Jack Sharkey made up for a layoff yesterday by boxing eight rounds this afternoor against five sparring partners. The Boston boxer, who meets Jack Dempsey Thursday night came through this longest workout of his trainin: campaign here covered with perspira- tion but breathing easily. He plan: another good workout for tomorrow. All his sparring mates today were in- structed to carry the fight to Sharke: while he was cautioned several time: by his trainers and. manager to “stan: back and box,” the battle plan whic): is seen as his best strategy against Dempsey. ‘Left jabs with an occasional high powered right were the _ principa! weapons of Sharkey today in twe rounds each with Johnny Urban, Pau Cavalier, and Marco Polo and one apiece with Leo Gates and Rocky Stone He held his arms higher and was + less Open target than in his last prev- ious workout on Thursday. Rickard Controls Sharkey If He Wins Heavy Titlc New York, July 16 (A.P.).—Jack Sharkey and his manager, Johnny Buckley, have signed a provisional con- tract with Tex Rickard, agreeing t” defend the heavyweight championshij: in 1928 if the Boston sailor defeat: Jack Dempsey next Thursday and then dethrones Gene Tunney. The contract is similar to one Demp- sey has signed with Rickard, thus as Suring the New York promoter of con- trol of the heavyweight title program for at least one more year. E. E.

Robert had his first taste of tourna- ment play in 1924, but still remained in obscurity. However, he was not idle in the winter months and was daily improving his game by frequent visits to the cement courts at the Monument grounds.

MERICAN LEAGUE PARK will be the scene of a continuation of an old rivalry today when the Georgetown A. C. entertains Sylvester Breen’s Cardinal A. C., of Alexandria. Action is schedulec at 3 o'clock. The Cards and the Georgetown A. C., formerly known as the Knickerbockers, have been rivals for many years, and their annual games generally at Alex- andria has been one of the season's sandlot features. Last year the Knicks had won fifteen straight games without suffering de- feat when the Cards entertained them at Baggett’s Field, Alexandria, and handed them their first loss of the season. The final score of that hectic game was 13 to 12 after eleven innings. The Alexandria Cardinals are the old- est independent team in America. The club was organized in 1907, and every year since has placed a strictly sandlot team on the field. This is the Cards’ twenty-first consecutive season on the diamond, and twice during that time they have held the unlimited sandlot title of Alexandria for five-year periods, namely, 1911-15 and 1921-5. With this formidable record behind them the Cards. are out to give the Georgetown A. C. a real. battle today. Young blood comprises the roster of the club, and.it is managed by Joe Owens, who is the only charter mem- ber of the club now active. Manager Owens has a promising bunch of youngsters under his guidance which indicates that the Georgetown aggre- gation is in for plenty of trouble. The following players make up the roster of the Cards: Hewitt, Deavers, M.nter' and Brown, pitchers; Peyton and Knight, catchers; Owens, Wood, Horn, Roland and Garland, infielders; Cline, Allen, Henley, Kite and Williams, outfielders.

Famed Knicks Intact for Game Today : ot 1920 Return for Battle With Donohoes ‘at Georgetown Hollow. HE old Knickerbockers are back. At least they will be back on the Georgetown Ho?'ow today. Not a new. team, but the same Knickerbock- ers who swelled the chest of every Georgetown sandlot fan a few years ago by winning the District champion- ship and set an all-time record for unlimited competition here when they won 25 consecutive games from the best teams available back in 1920. Nor will the Knickerbockers return to the diamond minus any of the reg- ulars who comprised that famous team. Carroll Day, the Knicks’ manager in three glorious seasons, will again have charge of the team, when the Donohoe Motor Co., of the Capital City League, will be played, starting at 3 o’clock. Jutes Poore, the diminutive backstop, will again handle the slants of the Knickerbocker veterans, the faithful Ross Fisher and the speedy Bernard McCarthy. Dutch Homan will have the family rooting for him when he resumes his old post at first base, while George Ortell, “Toots” Wise and Bill Smith will be in the other infield posi- tions as of yore. That thumping, roaming and deadly-throwing outfield, inciud- ing Jeff Smith, Buck Jenkins and Earl Gantt, will be intact. The banks of the Hollow should again be crowded with the Georgetown natives, ready once again to sing the praises of their favorites of other years. This is home-coming day at George- town Hollow. Nor has the team been reorganized for this single game. It has been planned to challenge the Georgetown A. C., which carried the Knickerbocker name to two sandlot championships in more recent years, to a series of games for the title in that section of the city. The Georgetown A. C. is said to favor such a series, which should set & number mark for rivalry in -Wash- ing sandlot basekall circles. SEEK GAMES.

Baltimore Beauforts Seek D. C. Opposition | The Beaufort A. C. of Baltimore, with a string of 26 victories, is anxious to meet local teams in the 18-year-old class on some Washington diamond. Baltimore promises a return game. For games write Daniel Redding, 235 South Highland avenue. Black Sox to Play Double-Header Today | The Black Sox will engage the Madi- son Stars, of Philadelphia, in a double- header today at the Union League Park. The first game will start at 2:30 o’clock. The teams were to have met last Sun- day, but wet grounds caused postpone- ment of the twin bill. Midget Nines Clash In 3 League Games Corinthian and Eddie Collins Nines furnish the only action in Section A of the Midget class of the Capital City League today. These teams meet on the west Ellipse at 3 o’clock. The Co- rinthians are undefeated thus far and expect to encounter little trouble in defeating the Eddie Collins Nine. The latter must offer something in the way of resistance because a loss would seriously affect their standing in the race. In Section B, the Americans tackle the Eskimos on the Plaza at 3 o'clock. The Eskimos are another of these teams with clean slates and it is the object of the Americans to upset the dope and give the “Alaskans” a _ jolt. The Rommels, apparent cellar champs oppose the Calhouns on Diamond No. 4 at 3 o'clock. The latter don’t figure the Rommels as easy prey because even cellar champs rise up and do the un- expected just at the inopportune time MARYLANDERS PLAY. Maryland Park A.

ENIOR class competition of the Capital City League foresees some close games today. Three teams are tied for fourth place in section A, namely, the St. Martins, Falls Church and Aztecs. The Aztecs meet St. Martins on the North Ellipse at 3 o’clock. Both of these clubs are presenting a formidable front at this writing and a nip and tuck battle is predicted. The Falls Church nine has a battle on its hands to keep in the race when they meet the league- leading Auths on the Washington Bar- racks diamond at 3 o’clock. The Terminal Ice Co. and the Crescents play the other section A game and another fight for honors is seen. The Crescents can tie for second place by virtue of a win, while the Terminals can come that much closer to the Auths if victory is theirs. In section B the Moose and National Circles feature the day’s card. The Moose, by scoring a victory over the Robins during the week, have come within a game of the Circles and a vic- tory for the ‘“‘Nalleymen” will create a tie for section honors. Battery selec- tions for this game will be O’Conner for the Moose and Oehmann for the National Circles. Freers, last year’s champions, will face the Robins in the other scheduled game. A third place tie exists here and a win for either will determine who will hold that position until next Sunday. Shamrocks Engage Mount Rainier Today Due to the collapse of the Intercity Semipro baseball league, the Sham- rocks, who were in second place, will meet Mount Rainier on the District line diamond at 3 o'clock today. Mount Rainier is anxious to score a victory over Willie Glascoe’s aggrega- tion and Frank Corkin is the likely selection as pitcher to face the “Harps.” Manager Glascoe will probably send Ralph Burrows to the mound for the Shamrocks. Burrows is a young right hander who has plenty of stuff and who met with fair success in the fair individual batting averages | tri-city league. The Shamrocks will present in | Mattingly, Charles, Clark and Tenny- beta a quartet of heavy hitters. ‘Smithfields Defeat | Washington Grays, 8-0 Smithfield Juniors handed the Wash- ington Gray Juniors a whitewash yes- terday when they knocked out an 8-to- |0 victory.

The Kanawhas and Sport Marts meet on the east Ellipse at 3 o’clock; the Yorkes and Takoma Tigers are scheduled at 1 o’clock on diamond No. 3, while in the feature game the Tremonts stack up against the league- leading Keanes on diamond No. 3 at 3 o'clock. Today provides the greatest chance for the Tremonts to gain recognition in the race. The last year’s champions seem to be the only team that can keep pace with the onrushing Keanes. The Tremonts gained a tie for first honors the last times these teams met. A victory over the Keanes will have a decided bearing on the outcome of the race, which is nearing its end. That the Tremonts will be out for every break is shown by the way Manager Clango has _ Baker and Ensor, star pitchers, ready. It will be remembered that it was Baker’s steady hurling and Ensor’s timely bingle that defeated the Keanes in that eleven-inning bat- tle that was fought by each tcam., Joe Freschi, one of the best young pitchers on the sandlots, will be on the mound for the league leaders. It W.L.Pct. 3 is on his trusty right arm that the Keanes are, pinning their hopes. A real battle is foreseen. The Yorkes, who are holding down the cellar position, will endeavor to up- set the Takoma Tigers. Pop Jewett’s combination, although handled roughly by every team in the circuit, has lately shown signs of a stride that will give trouble to all that come their way. The. Takoma Tigers, Known as the hard luck team of the league, will be hustling to strengthen their position. A loss would send them down very quickly, as the Sport Marts are right on their heels and in astride that spells advance- ment. George Phipps will hurl for the Tigers, while “Lefty” Jewett will prob- ably be the mound choice for the Yorkes. Another good game will be that of the Kanawhas and Sport Marts. Both teams are playing at the top of their form now, and a real tussle is in pros- pect. . Phil Sykes, diminutive hurler, will be on the mound for the Kanawhas, while Burke, who pitched so impressively ngainst the Yo “ene Pas SS OPC the Sport Marts. SEEK ACTION. The Robin A.

Washington in the National Pub- lic Links Tournament to be staged at Cleveland, August 2 to 6, will en- counter the most formidable field ever f YHE four golfers who will represent entered in such a tournament. The event will mark the sixth annua! National Public Links Tournament, and the Washington representatives will have as their goal the Warren G Har- ding team trophy which was won by this city three years ago. The players comprising the Washington team are Charles W. Cole, jr., the city public iinks champion; John R. Miller. Robert Burton and Bradley Burrows. Cole and Miller competed in the tournament last year but Burrows and Burton will par- ticipate for the first time. No golfer may compete in the public links championship who is a member of a private club and the players are allowed their railroad fare to and from Cleveland, plus $6.00 a day expenses, without affecting their amateur stand- ing. The public links championship was first held at Toledo in 1922 for a per- petual trophy put up by James D. Stan- dish, jr., of Detroit, chairman of the public links division of the United 136 ve.

Successive tour- naments were held at Washington, the winner being Richard A. Walsh, of New York; Dayton, Ohio, winner, Joseph Noble, Philadelphia; Garden City L. L, winner, Raymond J. Mc- Auliffe, Buffalo; Buffalo, Lester Bol- stad, of Minneapolis. When the tournament was held in Washington, the late President Harding put up a magnificent trophy to go to | the team of four players from any city | making the low aggregate score in the qualifying round. In of competition for the Harding trophy it has been won successively by teams from Chicago, Washington, New York | | and Chicago. Every year the U. S. G. A. Nationa] Public Links tournament grows in size | at | and importance. Last summer Buffalo, 106 players were entered from 29 cities. as Spokane, Wash.;: from Jacksonville, Fla., in the South, and from Boston in the East. Mr. Bolstad. who won the championship, a is Ridgewood golf links is the long- est and hardest course that this championship has ever been played over. It measures 6,550 yards and is a hilly, picturesque course with many natural hazards. The putting greens are pure creeping bent and were planted from nursery stock srown in the turf garden at Ohio State University. Howard A. Stahl, of Cleveland, mem- ber of the U. S..G. A.

GOLF AS CHAMPIONS PLAY IT New Names ARE INTRODUCED CONTINUALLY BUT THE STYLES OF THE CLUBS ARE MUCH THE SAME Should the golfer read the advertise- ments regarding» new, patented clubs, etc.? Would they improve his game? By LEO DIEGEL, Canadian Open Champion, 1924 and 925. Every effort to improve the playing of the game is being made by manu- | professionals by means | But it | should be borne in mind that the man- | ner of implement used in the game of | facturers and of new clubs and better clubs. golf is circumscribed with regard to construction, and it is doubtful if any great improvement has been made :n its manufacture, with the possible ex-: ception of standardization of shafts | by introduction of steel as a Material | for the shaft.. Just now most of the | professionals are using wooden Clubs | with broad and deep faces, claiming that the larger hitting surface gives a greater latitude for inaccurate hitting. These clubs seem to be quite an im- provement, and normally should help the game of the ordinary player. Many clubs are now being manufac- tured for specific purposes with certain mongrel names, but actually they are | the same old club designated different- | ly. It is strictly up to the player to | decide whether he wants to spend | money on the many new devices in- | troduced each year to improve his game or use the old, reliable equipment.

Voigt was given an opportunity to qualify, and although he failed to enter the | charmed circle by two strokes. his record this year will certainly en- title him to have his name fayor- ably considered. it is no longer “One-Round Wat- son.” For many, many years, Charles A. Watson, of the Columbia Club, has played persistently in tournaments, but has always faded out of the picture as soon as the qualifying round was over. Not only did he qualify at Sherwood Forest but he won his first match, 5 and 4, and his second match, 6 and 4, this being more remarkable than Bobby Jones’ 68. He went down to defeat in the semifinal round, this result being accompanied by a unique ex- planation. . “I haven't been in play for twenty years,” he “and when I lost a ball—which happened no less than five times—} said to my opponent, ‘this your hole.’ i didn't know that the rule had been changed and that a lost ed match Says, is | He has competed in eight match-play | | tournaments since the early spring and | has won them all, playing thirty-two | consecutive matches without encoun-/| Was no longer a lost hole.” | | } | j re ee. ee, tering a single defeat.

Ambition to suc- ceed in golf, coupled, of course, with a littie more than a fair amount of skill, are factors which are too important to be disregarded. Mackenzie recently performed the re- markable feat of playing the Burning Tree course from the back tees in 67 | strokes. one under par. He had bird- les On the third, fourteenth and eight- e¢enth holes, par on thirteen holes and was one stroke over par on the fourth and tenth holes, taking three putts on each of these greens. His card was as follows: | George L Nicholson, a member ot | the Washington Golf and Country Club | and residing at 3013 Q street, is a lit- tle over 6 feet tall. He has three sons all golfers, ‘and each one is as tall or even taller than his father. Members of the Washington Club are willing to wager that the Nichol. | sons, father and sons, represent the tallest family foursome in the world. If the quartet could be placed one on | | top of the other, they would tower 25 ' leet into the air. Mrs. Evan Jones, wife of Evan Jones, of the Beaver Dam Club, playing with Mrs. Frank M.

fe ia ¥ a J £ " - ™ “ae 4 a, Bing » _ re - . - , aa , a u + rd + 7 Se 1So This Is The Vacation By THEODORE TILLER / (Comment upon or republication of this ex- ve interview forbidden except by express eeese of the author or Mr. Sashweight.) In the course of my weekly interviews With J. Lester Sashweight, critical com- mtator upon current affairs, 1 again him on yesterday as he more stcod like a sentinel as he led his lawn pefore a mortgaged fount Piecasant domicile. My approach r @pon Sashweight was in the heyday of ne the vacation period, yet Sashweight 7908 parked not more than 25 feet from Bis doorstep. Apparently he had gone gowhere for a rest. After we had shaken left hands, the right of Sashweight being engaged with the lawn sprinkler, he inquired: “Upon what subject should I com- ment this week; or, if you prefer, as a matter of grammar school education, I should ought to comment upon and about some subject pertinent?” “Tut, tut and tush, tush, Mr. Sash- weight,” said I, “you may select your own topic—but why do you pass your vacation in town?” “Ask me another?” demanded Sash- weight. “My last score, under the rule that you get five points for every question correctly answered out of 20 queries per day, was a net return of 20 points. I remembered that Washington was our first President; I recalled that Gene Tunney beat Dempsey; I guessed that yodeling originated in the Alps, and I took a chance that Goose Goslin was a member of the Washington Base- pall Team, although I heard someone in ® cigar store say that he might be or had been sold to the Yankees, a team thta has nobody who can hit a home run.” > . . > Mr. Sashweight failed to recollect the questions that he could not answer, but under prodding he admitted the folowing were among them: Is America free, or is it governed by the Antisaloon League? Did Wash- ington throw a doliar across the Po- tomac at low tide; if so, why doesn’t Coolidge try it, with his strong right arm, or is he left-handed; when the British burned the Capital in 1812 what year was it; did the bunkers in golf games come from Bunker Hill; does synthetic gin incite sin; why did Na- poleon wear a cocked hat, when they were out of style at Waterloo; what has become of Prohibition’ Commis- sioner Roy A. Haynes; and why; name the flights across the Atlantic and Pa- cific during which somebody did not fall into the water; is Secretary Mellon the third or fourth richest man in this country? As soon as he came back t& Secre- tary Mellon and income taxes, Mr. Sashweight began to talk again. He ls. quoted here, almost verbatim—a Greek word meaning liberally inter- preted “as he said it, or meant it.” “You ask .me why I have not gone away on a vacation?” inquired Sash- weight. “It is a simple story. The family was all set to go. The cat had been farmed out to a neighbor for two weeks. The fiilvver stood churning in the back yard, its running board load- ed down with picnic lunches, touring maps, grips filled with newly-laundered linen, a couple of thermos bottles and certain liquid gifts from my boot- legger guaranteed to last 100 miles —direct effect, 200 miles indirect, or hangover, effect. I had looked over all life and accident insurance policies. nothing was to come due while I yield- ed to the wanderlust for two full wéeks, Sundays not included, since Sabbaths are days of rest by virtue of the Bible, upon which I was reared, and executive orders of the Federal Government, for which I toil all the year round, except- ing 30 days sick leave and 30 days annual leave. . > “It has been my practice all through life never to answer the telephone. My exiom is that nobody who owes you money ever calls you up. When the phone rings it’s their businesg not yours. Think over: your telephone calls. “But the phone rang just as we were starting out of the back yard. I was tempted, as usual, to tell the wife to answer it and inform the party at the other end of the line that I had scar- let fever or had gone on a long jour- ney that might take me to the Pa- cific Coast. But I was filled with va- cation spirits and answered the call my- self. I hope the C. & P. Telephone Co. permanently cuts off my service thé next time I get behind on the Dill. The phone is a great convenience to Mrs. Sashweight, who talks most of the day with her fellow-clubwomen, but it’s generally misery to me. Nevertheless, this time, in my vaca- tion ecstacy, I answered it. I neither disguised my voice nor denied my iden- tity. I had just been reading one of the periodical reports put out by Gra- ham B. Nichol, publicity generalissimo of the Internal Revenue Bureau, re- porting great collections for the fiscal year 1926 and certain quarters of 1927. It indicated that the government was in most healthy financial condition. The question, it seemed, was disposi- tion of the surplus—as I read figures running into the collected millions, or was it billions? “This is the office of the deputy collector of internal revenue, No. 1422 Pennsylvania avenue,” said the voice at the other end of my luckless tele- phone line. “We’ve been checking up your income tax returns for 1921 and 1922. You owe the Government an additional balance of—(phone discon- 1 nected here, first time I ever knew cen- tral to do me a favor). “Gotta be paid by tomorrow noon or we'll have to issue a warrant in distress (or was it distaint), against all your goods and chattels, including wife and children, ,and other encumbrances. Come to see me and avoid embarrass- ment.” “What happened then?” I sympatheti- cally inquired of Mr. Sashweight. * s * > “Well,” said Sashweight, as he tilted the nozzle of his lawn-sprinkling hose. “I argued with the fellow and told him a Treasury Department expert had helped me make out and O. K.’d my returns for those years and they must be right. His hard-boiled reply was that another expert had checked them up and ascertained that I and the first expert had failed to give the poor old Government its just due and they were getting on to us some five or six years later.” “And now,’ ’it was suggested to Sash- weight. “I’m spending my vacation here at home, ain’t 1?” he asked, feelingly but without regard to grammatical con- struction. “Look out in the garage and see if you don’t see a dismantled flivver.”’ And thus I left him, with a nozzle in one hand and a Treasury Depart- ment statement in the other—and a look of bewilderment upon his usually benign face. (Next week in The Post Mr. Sash- weight will comment upon the exodus to the boy’s camps around Washing- ton, an exodus that has bereft hun- dreds of families, of at least one or two youngsters, and the noises that abound when they are in town.) ~ —_——--—---— UNVRRNVONRLA ARNEL ATE TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY. __ HOUSES FOR RENT |APARTMENTS FOR RENT Furnished.

GOOD-BY M’NARY-HAUGEN. The most competent authority in the United States estimates that the value of American farm products this year will reach $14,000,000,000, an increase of $2,000,000,000 over last year. The crops are in splendid condition. In spite of the advice to farmers to cut down wheat acreage there is an increase, ‘and the yield is good, while prices re- main high. Higher prices for cotton off- set the decreased acreage caused by the floods. Corn is high, and the yield is enormous. Hog prices have not yet in- creased, but an increase will come soon. This farm prosperity spells the doom of the McNary-Haugen “farm-relief” combination as a formidable political factor. The politicians engineering that scheme will carry on for a while, and doubtless an effort will be made to pass the McNary-Haugen bill through Congress, but there is no longer any political capital to be made by ex- ploiting the “distress” of farmers. So ‘the McNary-Haugen bill or its successor probably will not pass, and if it should, the President’s veto will close this strange, eventful history of fallacy and politics masquerading as “farm relief.” For the politicians who have attempted to misuse the powers of government and who deliberately arrayed agriculture against industry in this country there need be : commiseration. They de- serve the humiliating fiasco that is com- ing. For the farmers who honestly es- poused the fallacy of McNary-Haugen- ism, it is hoped that their restored pros- perity without any legislation whatever will cure their tendency to confuse eco- nomic and natural laws with the laws of man. They now discover that President Coolidge befriended them when he ve- toed the McNary-Haugen bill and thus prevented the Government from making & fool of itself by trymg to interfere with natural laws. DIVORCE DISCOURAGEMENTS. Bad news comes from two havens often sought by those intent upon obtaining divorces speedily and with the minimum degree of opposition. First the French courts took cognizance of the fact that their code was abused by many Ameri- cans, and now Reno authorities have questioned the constitutionality of the recent legislative act reducing to three months the period of residence necessary for a divorce in Nevada. Conditions in the one place hinge upon the other. It was not until Paris became the mecca of the divorce seekers that the Nevada Legislature acted to restore the failing patronage of Reno. If restrictions are to be tightened in both places, it will become increasingly difficult to shake off lightly the vows taken on marriage. The threatened reform in French pro- cedure is said to be due to the fact that many Americans have evaded the letter of the French law. A period of residence is required, but ways were found for establishing a domicile, which were. of themselves questionable. Paris divorce could be obtained during a vacation trip to the continent, and the French law prohibiting publicity in such cases served. as an additional attraction. Now recent rulings will make it more difficult to gct a divorce and some Paris clothes, all within a week or two. | The difficulty at Reno arises out of the fact that the original limitation which required six months’ residence in the State before action for divorce could be prought was a part of the Nevada con- stitution. A Reno judge has questioned the legality of the amendment adopted by the last legislature. A test case is to be carried through the courts. In the event that the law is held to be uncon- stitutional those persons who have ob- tained their divorces under the new Statute may be considerably embarrassed in finding that they have not been legally separated. AGAINST ALL OBSTACLES. All peril has not been removed from transocean flying, as the experiences of Ernest L. Smith and Emory B. Bronte, added to those of Byrd and his com- panions, prove. The two civilian aviators who raced the sun across the Pacific made their. goal in the Hawaiian Islands, but there was more than one moment in their flight when the fates treated them cruelly. The mechanical safeguards with which they had equipped them- selves did not function at times during the flight, and the elements proved that they are as yet not altogether quiescent under the assaults of man. The marvel is, after reading the story of their flight, that Smith and Bronte reached their objective. Fog and wind handicapped accurate navigation much of the way. The wireless receiving set failed, and it was impossible for ships on the course to aid the fliers. Mechanical defects threatened the gasoline supply, and then when they feared a descent upon the ocean the radio sending appara- tus was damaged. The very manner of their landing was evidence of the dan- gers which beset them, no more gasoline and the rocky shores of the Pacific leper island the only hope of safety. A tree is no soft resting place, but hard choice made it the only one the aviators could pick. Few men, if they could foresee a chain of happenings such as these, would discount the dangers they presented. The accomplishment of such flights in the face of great handicaps is, however, adequate testimony to the flying skill and bravery 6f American aviators. The machinery upon which they depend will not remain for long in the present ele- mentary and undependable state. Ways will be found to diminish the obstacles which the elements now present. As long as Americans supply the knowledge and courage that Smith, Bronte and the rest have shown, the progress of long- distance aviation to a point of stability is assured. COUNTESS MARKIEVICZ. The recent death of the Countess Markievicz has removed from the scene one of the really picturesque political personalities of modern times. Of aristo- cratic lineage and daughter of a titled father, she was born Constance Gore- Booth, and was raised amid surroundings that gave no hint or suggestion of the radical role that she was destined in later life to play. As a girl she shared the occupations and pursued the rather frivolous social and sporting activitigs which were the hall-mark 6f most of the Irish landed gentry of 40 years ago. The crisis came in her career when, in order to develop her talent for painting, she went to Paris as an art student, for there she met Count Markievicz and was married to him in 1900. The young couple settled in Dublin and both were soon prominent in the literary and artistic circles which were so marked a feature of the Irish capital at the be- ginning of the present century. Literature and art sometimes develop a certain amount of Bohemianism,. and when the notorious Jim Larkin brought off the long-continued and far-reaching strike of 1918 the countess threw herself heart and soul into the agitation for the betterment of the laboring classes. In connection with the strike there was es- tablished a citizen army under the direc- tion of James Connolly, and when the rebellion of Easter week, 1916, broke out it was an easy transition for that or- ganization to change its aim from a fight against capital into a fight against the British army. Into that fierce but short-lived struggle Countess Markievicz: entered with char- acteristic ardor, energy and determina- tion. Plaeed in command of a small force, she donned top beaots, breeches, a service tunic and a feathered hat, captured the Royal College of Surgeons and for sev- eral days dominated the whole central area of St. Stephen’s Green; and she sur- rendered only in obedience to orders from republican headquarters. Tried by court-martial for treason in levying war on her sovereign liege, the king, she was, of course, sentenced to death, but that sentence was soon commuted into one of penal servitude for life. From that pun- ishment also she escaped in 1917 when, along with the other Sinn Fein prisoners, she was unconditionally released by Mr. Lloyd George in his attempt to create the he was then about to make for the settle- ment of the perennial] Irish question. Countess Markievicz had the unique distinction of being the first woman ever elected to the British House of Commons. Owing, however, to the attitude of the thus it was that, not to her, but to Lady Astor fell the honor of being the first of their sex to be presented as a member of the British Parliament. Countess Markievicz maintained her republican and radical views to the last. One of her great enthusiasms in later years was the creation of a large, care- fully drilled organization of Sinn Fein Boy Scouts, from whose ranks, as they grew to young manhood, were drawn ac- tive and thoroughly trained recruits for the republican army and the Sinn Fein Volunteers. Of her it has been truly said that she was on the left wing of every movement with which she was as- sociated. Her career was a checkered one and she crowded many experiences into her 59 years. Her temperament was such that there is no reason to doubt that she got great enjoyment out of her varied and exciting life. HITCH TO THE STARS! {t is interesting to note how facts that are apparently totally unrelated some- times are found to be intimately con- nected. An instance in point is the wholly serious statement of engineers that if the earth did not revolve on its axis no cit- izen could ever be sure that he owned any particular plot of ground on the earth’s surface. . Almost all old land surveys were made with the aid of a compass, and the com- pass is notoriously unreliable. The com- pass needle is always shifting to one side or the other of true north. Two surveys made at different times seldom agree. The fickle compass was the cause of a million dollar lawsuit in New York City a few years ago, when it was claimed that a certain skyscraper encroached few inches on an adjoining property owner’s holdings. The turning of the earth on its axis, however, provides an absolutely sure way of locating property accurately, because it makes possible arbitrary lines of lati- tude and longitude. Longitude is simply a measure of time, and latitude provides arbitrary crosslines. Thus, there is only one spot on the earth’s surface that has a particular latitude and longitude. Find the latitude and longitude of your prop- erty and it will stay put. The United States Coast and Geodetic Survey has established a network of ac- curately located latitude and longitude points all over the United States. The points are located in a series of triangles, and all connect with one central master point located in Kansas. This point is called the North American datum, be- cause the government surveys of both Canada and Mexico are tied into the United States triangulation system. Now, cities are beginning to demand that their local surveys be rectified by this great triangulation system. Prop- erty is becoming too valuable for the owners to take a chance on not being able to locate any given plot of ground to the fraction of an inch. Atlanta, Ga., has just completed a survey to get the city assimilated with the Government control system. Rochester, N. Y., saw the light a couple of years ago. Washington is lined up.and properly ‘“triangulated.”’ Other cities are waking up to this service which Uncle Sam is prepared to render them. Eventually not only the cities but every farm and lot everywhere will be so accurately located, by latitude and longitude, that nothing short of a strike among the planets will ever disturb their recorded location. AMERICAN WOMEN TEACHERS. By a process of logic which is not made clear, a British educator has arrived at the conclusion that the emotional quali- ties of Americans are due to the fact that they are under the influence of women teachers in their younger days. The re- sult is, according to this theory,: lurid American headlines and the tendency of the press in this country to display ex- citing news As an indictment of the educational system in the United States this has at least the advantage of being novel. There is, of course, a decided distinc- tion between the methods followed by the two countries in the training of young boys. It is considered the natural thing in England to send a boy of 6 toa boarding school, where he is placed at once under the restraining influence of schoo] discipline and directed during most of the year by his male teachers. Parents in the United States wait at | Proper “atmosphere” for the proposals | | least another half dozen years before Sinn Fein she did not take her seat and . | YU Zaef TON BUY | ‘ wX) ‘ Ky | DAY \) \ SYK | } AY j y ———— —— a — i *. —__— Caw v, ste oy YIE\\ ‘ \\ Z U Uncle Sam Holds the Club Over John Bull’s Bi in That Suit. surrendering so large a part of the pa- rental and home training of the child. There are factors for good in both systems, undoubtedly, but it is hard to understand how American educational methods finally involve the character of newspapers in the United States. There are “penny dreadfuls” in London as well as in New York, and the distinction be- tween conservative newspapers in the two countries is not such as to furnish material for an indictment of American teachers. It seems to be entirely too much to blame the hard-working women teachers of the United States for the typography and news judgment of the “yellow journals.” The burdens of im- parting the rudiments of knowledge are heavy enough, without adding those which British critics would superimpose. CONQUERING THE CORN BORER. If the estimate of the Department of Agriculture on the result of the campaign against the European corn borer is well based, the department is entitled to credit for the greatest clean-up campaign ever. inaugurated. Nor can there be found the slightest criticism of the action of Congress in placing to the credit of the department the huge sum of $10,000,000 with which to carry on this work. The campaign for the elimination of the borer from the corn lands of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan and Indiana was started on March 14 and ended for the season on July 2. The Federal department had the cordial co- operation of the States in which the pest had gained a foothold, as well as the aid and cooperation of agricultural colleges. Not only were the educational institu- tions and the State governments willing and ready to support the work of the Federal agents, but as soon as they were made familiar with the plans of the de- partment the individual farmers gave their hearty support. : The result of the war is, according to the Corn Borer Bulletin of the depart- ment, almost 100 per cent victory over the invader. It is believed that fully 95 per cent destruction has been accom- plished, which unprecedented record would lead to the hope that those farmers whose lands had been invaded will be able to prevent a repetition of the scourge by following the directions of the offi- cials who led the fight this year. Of the $10,000,000 appropriated for the “war chest” of the Department of Agriculture it is estimated that between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000 will be paid to the farmers themselves, who are to be compensated at the rate of not more than : $2 per acre for all work performed in controlling the corn borer over and above the work required in the cultivation of their lands. The total cost of the campaign can not be estimated at this time because it is not known exactly to what extent the financial resources of the States which aided in the work were used. But what- ever the total may be the results appear to warrant the expenditure, for had condi- tions been permitted to continue through another season it is certain that every State in the great corn regions of the trans-Mississippi region would have been subject to invasion. This danger is now reduced to the minimum. DEFENSE HIGHWAY. The Defense Highway, which was of- ficially christened yesterday, marks the enlargement of the radius within which Washingtonians may live and play. Resi- dents of the Capital have long needed a shorter and more convenient outlet to the Chesapeake Bay country. The De- fense Highway accomplishes this pur- pose by providing a road between Wash- ington and Annapolis more than ten miles shorter than the one previously used. It is of modern construction, which makes it available in all weather. This section of Maryland has always been at Washington’s door, but hereto- fore the gateway has only been partially opened. The new traffic artery will en- able Capital residents to reach their sum- mer homes in the Severn section more easily. The advantages are not all on one side. The agricultural products of the Eastern Shore will find a better mar- ket because of the new road.. The mili- tary idea behind the construction of the highway only enhances its benefits in times of peace. AIR LEGISLATION, The progress of aviation is developing many problems. None is more important than that already under consideration in several States—control of reckless flying. Until legislation can be adopted there is no way in which the authorities can pro- tect the citizens against the operations of foolish aviators. Federal regulation can not cover all contingencies. The States, too, must adopt safeguards. The heroic feats of Lindbergh, Cham- berlin, Byrd and their companions have given the public the impression that aviation is approaching a point of com- plete safety. This is true, granted that both men and machines are of the highest order. But it is impossible at present to prevent dangerous ascents. There are — many deynaye fliers, who tour the coun- try with planes of doubtful stability, taking up passengers at a low rate and risking their own lives and those of the persons who accompany them in every trip they make. They are a danger to the public and a drawback to aviation. It is high time that the law should step in to prevent avoidable accidents. Ade- quate air legislation should be speedily adopted in every State. LOSS BY SMOKE. The cost of smoke can not be estimated altogether by the tobacco consumption of the United States. There is another bill presented each year in the form of damage and destruction caused by coal smoke, which the experts estimate at $500,000,000. It is reckoned in terms of damage to merchandise, defacement of buildings, tarnishing of metals, injury to human and plant life, greatly increased labor and cost of housekeeping, and losses of manufacturers through the im- perfect combustion of coal. Officials of the Bureau of Mines and authorities of many municipalities have devoted much time and energy to the study of the smoke problem. They are convinced that the economic loss can be cut more than 75 per cent provided that sane regulations are adopted and public cooperation obtained. The proof of this statement may be obtained in Pitts- burgh, long famed as the smokiest and dirtiest city in the United States. The Pennsylvania industrial center is no long- er a contender for such honors. The ‘yearly loss from smoke, believed at one time to have reached $10,000,000, now amounts to less than $2,500,000. At- mospheric conditions in the city compare more than favorably with those of any large town in the soft coal region. It is the contention of the experts that any other city can do what Pittsburgh has done. All that is required is an adequate survey of existing conditions for the purpose of determining what changes must be made, adoption of regu- lations that can be understood and en- forced, and civic teamwork. Following these principles Pittsburgh now spends less than $16,000 a year in its smoke prevention work. Industries which were put to some slight expense to make im- provements have been more than repaid in fuel saving, and Pittsburgh is a cleaner and healthier place in which to live. Considered on this basis the cost of maintenance is certainly not excessive. Every city has a smoke problem. If it is not controlled it is a sign not only of inertia but of extravagant waste, » °

Gas Training Grows. There the oncoming supporters of their brother infantrymen, who throw the curtain of steel and gas to shield the advance of the bayonet men, are trained to “wheel and unlimber” in the most picturesque drill of the Army. They learn to ride and guide the heaving, struggling steeds that pull the “seventy fives’’ whose bark is like the twanging of a gigantic bass viol’s strings and whose bite, infinitely more unpleasant. Round and round the course they send their guns, releasing the horses, galloping them to the rear, pointing the pieces, limbering up, vaulting into sad- dle and seat, riding bumping caissons, arms folded stiff as footmen on a coach box. At Fort Monroe, trainees study the manipulation of the big guns facing the sea, guarding the approach to Washing- ton. This fort is on Chesapeake Bay and commands the entrance to Hamp- ton Roads, Old Point Comfort, so named by English colonists in 1607, when they found a safe anchorage there after a stormy voyage to the New World, is nearby. The fort named after President Mon- roe, was garrisoned by a detail of heavy artillery, during the Civil War and the first fight of armored naval vessels, the Monitor and Merrimac, was within the shadow of its walls. Built in European hexagonal style, it is surrounded by a moat, and generally regarded as the most beautiful post in the United States. Battery Fire Fought. Here, the young heavy artillerists at play, climb on the polished barrels of the huge cannon and have their pic- tures taken. While at work, they per- ceive how by pad and pencil, telephones and machinery, men, like serpent charmers, uncoil these monsters from their hiding places in the walls; cause them to rear their hideous heads sky- ward and spit their venom, dealing death and destruction miles away. At Fort Humphreys, fifteen miles southwest of the Capital, the Nation’s next defenders are trained to use pick and rifle, shovel and bayonet, utensils of the engineers. These lads must have brawn.

Young Mr. Coolidge shares the love of his parents for the out-of-doors and will start in at once, no doubt, to rival their records in trout fishing and other sports. According to a custom long established in their household, Mrs. Coolidge will devote herself to the purpose of having her son have the most fun and good out of his vacation.

Playtime will soon be over for the debutantes of 1927-1928, for they will have to turn their ag to prepa- ration for their first winter. The mat- ter of clothes alone is a paramount question, and there always are many things to arrange and many plans to be made. The American girl likes to conduct her own affairs to a great extent, and even the most conservative mothers now give their daughters a real voice in the plans for their first seasons. Already some of the dates for the debut parties have been taken. The buds and mothers who have remained in this country and those now on a pre-debutante tour overseas are busily corresponding in order that the func- tions they plan will not interfere with other debutantes’ parties or with par- ties to be given by the leading host- esses of Washington. No debutante likes to run the risk of having her debut on the night of a big ball given by a popular hostess. While many of the debutantes will not “appear” urttil after Thanksgiving, others will return early in the fall, and there will be many little “get- together” dinners and luncheons and teas to talk over plans. In fact, it is at these pre-debutante gatherings be- fore the whirl that the friendships of the debutantes are often formed, which last, not only throughout the season, but an entire lifetime. There is a certain camaraderie about the girls who come out the same year. One of the most delightful things about the gatherings of the matrons of Wash- ington is the reunion of girls who have been debutantes together, now re- turned to Washington as the wives of officials, diplomats, or members of the House or Senate. An engagement of great interest last week was that of Miss Dorothy Mondell to Mr. Alexander White Gregg, and it was quite a surprise to hear that the wedding will take place in the near future. Miss Mondell is the daughter of former Representative and Mrs. Frank Wheeler Mondell. She passed her girlhood in Washington and made her debut several years ago. She is de- voted to sports, being fond of riding, tennis and golf. With her fiance, she was often seen in the spring on the bridal paths of Rock Creek Park. Mr. Gregg bears the name of his father, who was a representative from Texas. Since his father’s death in 1919 Mr. Gregg has made his home with his mother. A few years ago he was made general counsel of the Bureau of Internal Revenue by Secretary Andrew Mellon, who has been greatly interested in his career. The marriage of Miss Mondell to Mr. Gregg will remove another eligible bachelor from the list. With the popu- lation here in a constant state of fluc- tuation, this list is none too long at any time. Perhaps that is one of the reasons sO many Washington girls marry men from other cities and States. The romance of Miss Mondell and Mr. Gregg !s one of the congressional set, for they nave known each other sinc: childhood, because of the long service of their fathers in the House of Repre- sentatives. The ranks of eligible bachelors and widowers in the Senate and House probably will be augmented by tue eur'try of the members of the Seven- tleth Congress into official life the cpening day of the session in Deceimn- a bachelor senator of the last fes- gion, Senator Clarence C. Jones, of Washington, will return 4 benedict, having married Miss Rosalie Jones, the suffrage leader, since the close of Con- gress last spring. Among the sena- torial bachelors are censtor Robert M.

With such women aspousing the case of the wide-brimmed hat as Mrs. Cool- idge, Princess Mary, Mrs. John Phillip Hill and others, it is not to be won- dered that this headgear beloved of the American woman should have a real vogue in England and even Paris. At the Ascot races, at the smart cafes in Paris, on the Riveria and other haunts of the wealthy and socially elect, the large picture hat is seen of’ straw, georgette, silk net, lace and, of course, velvet. By the way, many of the prettiest of. the “summer hats” are made of velvet as a change from the still ultrasmart soft felt ones. There is a lure about a large velvet hat, put on at a chic and becoming angle, with a summer frock; which can not be achieved with any other combination. This is also true of the smart sport frock, with its close- fitting velvet. hat of contrasting or harmonizing shade, and, for some of us, the wide-brimmed sport hat.

The number of such bills has reached a to- tal of more than 500.. These bills have been placed in charge of the legislative chairmen of the State branches of the National _Woman’s Party. In many States very active and effective work has been done in securing the intro- duction of the bills and favorable ac- tion upon them, Such activity has been particularly well directed in Cali- fornia, Colorado, Delaware, the District life and a chance to acquire a taste for food served as Americans serve it.

Every mem- ber who has worked with a State legis- lature can testify to the great amount of time and strength required to se- cure even most minor changes. The legislative work has demonstrated both the weakness and the power of the State by State method. Its power lies in its educational force, but it must be admitted to be exceedingly expensive educational work. Its weakness lies in the fact that in this way the work of securing equality is like a woman’s work—it is never done. There is no end to it and no certainty of per- manence.” At the present time seven - uropean countries have a declaration establish- ing the principle of equal rights be- tween men and women. These coun- tries are Austria, Czechoslovakia, City of Danzig, Esthonia, Germany, Lithu- lania and Prussia. Encouragement and Sympathy for the women of China were proffered by the Executive Committee of the National League of Women Voters in response to an appeal for sympathetic understand- ing from eight women’s organizations of China. At a meeting last week at the home of the president, Belle Sherwin, near Cleveland, the committee cabled the following message: “Believing that your appeal belongs to the women of our country generally, ped by en ar an it to all the affili- ranches of the league thr the United States. 3 ohne “We are confident that it will be received with deep sympathy for the aspirations of the women of China and with eager hope for continued friend- ship and increased cooperation between the American and Chinese peoples. “The study of the problems of the Pacific, with especial reference to China, was recently added to the league’s pro- gram, and we are pledged to promote that understandinfg for which you ap- peal.” Reports on the investigations being carried on by the league, relating to jury service for women, the maternity and infancy act, and the electric power rates and regulation as they affect domestic consumers, were made at the committee meeting. The league is evincing great interest and concern in the referendum to be conducted in October, in Maine, which Sea repeal of the direct primary aw. “In the league’s continued effort to increase participation in elections we are impressed with the fact that reten- tion of the direct primary is absolute- ly essential if voters are to have a voice in the nomination of candidates,” Miss Elizabeth J. Hauser, of Girard, Ohio, head of the league’s department of efficiency in government, said. “All efforts to do away with the primary during the last year have been decisively defeated, whether attempted by referendum as in Ohio last year or by action of the State Legislatures. “The league will stoutly oppose the proposed repeal of the primary law in Maine.” Mrs. Harris T.

ART IS GIVEN IN MEMORY OF AVIATOR By ADA RAINEY. ARY E. MAXWELL has given 4 M collection of etchings to the Corcoran Gallery !n memory of her nephew, Lieut. ‘ouls Bernet, Jr., who served in the royal air forces and Gied at Lille, France, August 1918. The gift has been placed on exhibi- tion and consists of a number of etch- ings from Rembrandt to Hadly Fitten and Ernest Roth. The etchings are mostly those popular in England and America during the twenty years, and are excellent exam- les of the etcher’s art. The prints from | mbrandt’s original plates are four in | number, among them “The Flight into Egypt,” “Abraham Sacrificing Isaac,” and “Abraham and Hagar.” Of course any print from a Rembrandt plate is) these being valuable &s | ‘king with | - of keen interest, showing his method of we the needle.

A recent tour of inspection revealed that the details will be of the finest Indiana limestone, used as base boards and decorative elements. The plaster work on the ceilings, which are so im- portant in the reflection of light on the paintings and exhibits, is of classic simplicity and fine workmanship. A central planning, including hall- ways, rest rooms and studio, which will be available for American artists first who may be in the city for painting portraits which may be commissioned, storage room, and other accessories which are necessary to the upkeep of a large museum will serve for the en- tire gallery, including an additional gallery which may be bullt at any future time are already blocked in. The riew rooms are large, with high ceil- ings, large windows giving ample light for the paintings and other exhibits. More Room Sought It is hoped that space will be found for at least two rooms where exhibi- tions of the works of contemporary painters may be held. This matter of current exhibitions is extremely im- portant. I; makes the difference be- tween a vital exhibition gallery, show- ing the paintings and sculpture of liv- ing men, and a museum where the works of past generations are stored. However important the latter may be, yet the influence of living art upon the minds of the public and the stu- dents is of tremendous importance. Chicago and Brooklyn realize this and do a great deal to stimulate vital ex- hibitions. In no-.other way can the interested public keep abreast of the times. The Brooklyn Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago are pioneers in this field. They are friendly to the work of young American painters and have done a great deal to arouse interest in this phase of art. Not only in the winter months but in the summer as well exhibitions are held. This could with profi. be emulated by the Corcoran Gallery when it gets ints the new wing and into running order. There are many visitors in Wash- ington in the summer who would be interested in seeing current exhibitions. It is said at the gallery that the at- tendance this summer has been large, eo this is an ernest for increased ex- hibition facilities in the hot months of the year as well in the regular season. oa . © 7 Renaissance Style The Itallam Embassy on Sixteenth street is a modern adaptation of an Italian Renaissance Palace of the six- teenth century.

Library Entrance The entrance to the large salon is through the library, which is paneled in walnut, taken from an old Italian sacristy. The tone and grain of the wood is fine.

A polychrome wooden torso of a saint and Italian faience on the walls add the needed color. The large salon is a room of mag- nificent proportions. It is here that the architect has triumphed.

This por- trait of Mr. Brown 1s his diploma por- trait for instatllation in the Academy of Fine Arts in New York. Mr. Brown is a@ very. distinguished archtiect and has been interested for years in mak- ing Washington an art center. He was for a number of years the secretary of the American Institute of Architects He was associated with St. Gaudens and McKim in the desire to maintain the original plan of L’Enfant for the city and was one of the instigators of the endowment for the American Academy in Rome. He helped tO arrange the famous dinner in the Octagon House when $600,000 was pledged for the academy. He has written a book on the Octagon House, two others of the Capitol and a& brochure of Frank Millet. He has been elected one of the 40 members in the Academy of Arts and Letters, which is a distinction that few attain. That he should commission Burtis Baker to paint his diploma portrait is a great compliment to Mr. Baker, who has, however, carried out the commission with much credit to himself, The portrait is of the traditional size and requirements. It is painted very ably. It is a vital presentation of Mr. Brown, full of personality and keen- ness. The eyes are full of fire and power and are unusually well painted. The hands, so often weakly painted, are particularly well done. [n short, the portrait adds another to the long list of successful portraits that .this artist has accomplished, Mr. Baker is unusually successful with his portraits of men. This is the second academy diploma portralt that he has been asked to paint. The other was that of How- ard Smith, which was on exhibition at the Arts Club when Mr. Baker gave his one-man show there in the winter. Mr. Baker is now at work on a decorative painting of a charming figure posed against an interesting background for which Mrs, Baker is sitting. It is to be an exhibition paint- ing and promises one of the best ‘hings that the artist has done. In Septem | ber he will go to the Catskills to paint |landscapes and to finish some work | that he began there last summer. CORCORAN GALLERY—Exhibitions se etchings given by Mary E.

Recently it is be- ing discovered that the fine arts have to do with the creative imagination and the joy of living, so that great universities are specializing in art. They are seeking to give an intelligent un- derstanding of art that every educated | person should possess. Walter Sargent is the Instructor in this nevy department. He teaches not only the historic aspect but seeks to embody the esthetic experiences and ideals. It is believed that most people could enjoy art to a great degree if instruction is given in youth and in- telligent appreciation taught. This surely is a step in the right direction and shows the growing importance ac- | corded to the once despised arts. a Book Notes Alfred A. Knopf has contributeu ten books to the summer White House library, at the State Lodge in the Black Hills, South Dakota, where President and Mrs. Coolidge are now living. The titles sent are “American Opinion of France,” by Elizabeth Brett White; “Bella,” by Jean Giraudoux; “The War on Modern Science,” by May- nard Shipley; “Growth of the Soil,” by Knut Hamsun, in the Lofoten edition, two volumes in one; “Balzac,” by Rene Benjamin; “Bouquet,” by G. B. Stern; “Edison: The Man and His Work,” by George S. Bryan; “Sorrell and Son,” by Warwick Deeping; “A Musical Critic’s Holiday,” by Ernest Newman, and “One of Ours,” by Willa Cather, Some the finest and least known work of the late American artist, George Bel- | lows, is in the series of black and white drawings which he contributed as illus- trations to Donn Byrne’s novel “The Wind Bloweth,” published by The Cen- tury’ Co. The originals of these draw- ings are much sought after by Bellows collectors today. Each one portrays some scene in the story of Shane Camp- bell and his adventures in the strange distant places of the world. Of the eight drawings in the volume the plate most admired by Bellows enthuiasts is “The Wrestler of Aleppo” which portrays Shane’s encounter with Ahmet Ali, the great muscular brute who lords over the Beirut marketplace. It is typical of Bellows’ love for scenes of intense physical activity. “The Wind Bloweth” is one of Donn Byrne’s most popular novels and went into its eighth large printing recently.

NATHAMEL HAWTHORNE PRESENTED TO READERS AS STUDY IN SOLITUDE In the Murray Hill Biographies, an activity of the George H. Doran Co., New York, a splendid service is accom- plished for literature because this se- ries consists of readable biographies of literary men and women of the past and the present. Of special interest is that of “Na- thaniel Hawthorne, a Study in Soll- tude,” by Herbert Gorman, which just has appeared. It has been said that Nathaniel Haw- thorne, like Edgar Allan Poe, is one of the great enigmas of literature in the United States. . Their careers were sim- ilar in many respects, although Haw- thorne never reached the grinding depths of poverty which caused nearly all the days of Poe to be recorded as unhappy ones. But the same conflict of the real and unreal is seen in the life stories of these leading nineteenth century writers. Each man was haunt- ed by perverse imps of the fantastic and the weird. To bring about a bet- ter understanding of the character of Nathaniel Hawthorne has been the en- deavor of his present biographer. Draws Vivid Picture In order to do this Mr. Gorman has first drawn a vivid picture of the New England of Hawthorne’s day. It was a country where the impress of the Puritan had not been forgotten, but was no longer as effective as hefore. The change dated from about the year 1830, when economic changes brought an influx of new life into the isolated communities and small towns became big cities alme t overnight. The easy going colonial life became the bustling industrial existence of a people on whom fortune had begun to have its The stern Cal- vinism of the Pilgrims was giving in to the gentler Unitarianism, fast becoming the fashionable religion. Into the New England strain crept the racial im- pulses of Spain, France and Germany, mellowing and transfusing the people. In this age Nathaniel Hawthorne was born, but by a strange whim of circum- stance he was mentally a throw-back to the Puritan ancestors. Instead of portraying the néw New England, he drew with graphic sureness strange and enduring pictures of the old New Eng- land. In fact, he practically preserved for posterity the mental viewpoint pos- terity was to have of the early days of the colonies. Born in Salem His birthplace was Salem, home otf the witchcraft mania, a fertile spot of fancy and imagery, which were to spring the first exotic flowers of his imagination. Gallows Hill, in Salem, was one of his boyhood playgrounds, and he must have pondered very often on the terrible stories still cherished in the traditions of the old town of the men and women who had died there, victims to the fears and temporary madness of their fellow townsmen, The reflection of these boyish dreamings can be found again and again in his writing, and they are in large part what make his contribution to the growing mass of American literature so noteworthy. Hawthorne early learned the charm of solitude. His own thoughts were more interesting than the chatter of his companions, less affected by the atmos- phere of yesterday. The same loneliness of spirit persisted through his collegiate course at Bow- doin. Only a» few friends were made; these, curiously enough, were of the type whom no coldness of approach could alter in depth of affection, but the net result of Hawthorne’s college course is designated by Mr. Gorman in @ skillful analysis of it, as follows: “Hawthorne was in no whit drawn out of himself by his education. If any- thing, he was thrust deeper into his own loneliness.” Burned His Writing After college years came desultory at- tempts at writing, but many of these attempts were burned by him as unfit for public view, an action which one must consider as a definite loss to American literature. Little by little he gained confidence, however, and by 1830, we find short sketches signed “N.. Hawthorne” or “Nathaniel Haw- thorne,” appearing in the magazines of the period. By 1837 he had accumulat- ed a small audience and was at least aware of his literary powers. The force which awakened Nathaniel Hawthorne to life in its truest meaning was Sophia Peabody, the fragile New England maiden who was to become his wife. Mr. Gorman has painted this portion of Hawthorne’s life with mas- ter’s strokes, giving us an insight into all it meant and what it contributed to the genius of Hawthorne. She humanized the dreamer and taught him the reality which exists in life, even among the dreams and visions which follow close upon the steps of the creative mind. In order to marry Sophia Peabody, Hawthorne put aside dreams of a liter- ary career temporarily and. became a measurer in the Boston Custom House at a salary $1,500 a year. However, he did well in what must have been an uncongenial task. But before his goal of marriage with Miss Peabody was to be reached Hawthorne first was to experiment with new theories in Brook Farm, After five months he saw his mistake, according to his biographer, but he remained for at least a year longer, storing up impressions which later were to flower in literary creation, notably “The Blithedale Romance.” Marries Sophia Peabody Brook Farm behind him, came mar- riage to Sophia Peabody and “Old Manse Days in Concord,” a sort of New England idyl. Creation of literary matter came easily to him there and his pen was never still. Mr. Gorman calls this Hawthorne “the Hawthorne of the pe- riod of the Old Manse, a man who sat upon the edge of the circle a little withdrawn.” That is a very apt de- scription and one which no doubt would be instantly recognized by his contemporaries. The need of money kept driving his Pegasus faster. Therefore, he wrote for any publication which would accept his wares, much in the fashion of Poe. In 20 years, he had written 100 short stories and sketches. As his biographer points out: — “If he had never written anything else he would have survived through these stories, survived as a gently grow- ing provincial writer picturing his particular terrain with the cleverness of the solitary observer.” Yet there was more to Hawthorne than this. The next years were to prove it. To help out with the family dinner pot, ' Hawthorne entered the Customs House at Salem. This was a fortunate circumstante, for the old dreams came to life again and he could judge their value and crystallize them into literature with a man’s ability in- stead of merely dreaming them as a boy. Worker is Discharged Yet literature and mundane matters go seldom hand in hand, and after three years* service Hawthorne was dis- charged when a charge of “loafing |is carried on without the injection of a around with hard drinkers” was brought against him. In ,1849, the year which was to sée disappear from the heavens of American literature the mortal star of Edgar Allan Poe, Hawthorne began work on “The Scarlet Letter,” which was to bring him undying fame and establish for all time his place with the immortals of letters. “The Scarlet Letter” immediately was successful and Hawthorne and his little family moved away from Salem to Len- ox, in the genial atmosphere of the Berkshires. There he was happy with his family, his friends and his work, and there he was destined to remain for some years until the wanderlust fell upon Rim again. Meantime literary fame had come to him and the financial assurance which sometimes, but not al- ways, comes with it. After a few years’ residence at West Newton, Mass., Haw- thorne entered the diplomatic service as consul at Liverpool. Solitary in England Hawthorne, solitary in America, was Hawthorne solitary in England as well. It is difficult to find in his published works any definite impression made upon his mind by his sojourn in Eng- land. He remained a New Englander in the very heart of old England. Strange as it may seem, Mr. Gorman points out, he made no attempt to meet the leading English litera the day. He never talked with Thackeray, Dickens, Trollope, Tennyson, Swin- burne, Arnold or George Eliot. Yet he did meet Leigh Hunt and the Brownings. Soon the England episode was over. He resigned from his post and hurried to Italy, via France, with his family. That move was responsible for his “Marble Faun,” one of the loveliest of his works, which, however, was not entirely written there. After a time Hawthorne went back to England. After some _ creative months he returned to America in 1860 to “The Wayside,” Concord. The Civil War broke upon the Nation and the haven of which Hawthorne had dreamed was not to be. He wandered from point to point, writing less and less, until in 1864 the end came, when he died at Plymouth while on a trip with Franklin Pierce, former President of the United States. Most fittingly Mr. Gorman ends his book with this paragraph, when speaking of the mo- ment of death: “As quietly as this did the soli- tary man achieve that haven where his solitude might not be disturbed.” E.

It all began with the disappearance and murder of Helen Bogart, heiress to a fortune, in the quiet, unexciting humdrum existence of Captains Haven, Long Island. Then follows the other murders, murder cars and glimpses into New York detective systems. How “V. V.,” the famous detective, pitted his skill against evil forces, the wide-spreading influence and colossal enterprises of the boottlegging industry form a tale of a diabolical intrigue of plots and counter plots presented by a master of detective fiction. One of the outstanding features of this book is that, contrary to the rule of most detective stories, the love story is left entirely out. In fact, the action single woman character, except the murdered woman and the casual men- tion of a wife or two left at home. THE SERPENT-HEADED STICK. By John Hawk. (George H. Doran & Co., New York.) A mystery story without its all-see- ing, all-wise detective fails of its kin- ship to the detective story fan. In this story there is one which will be sure to please men of letters and science who unsolve murder mysteries as a pastime. When he is called in to solve the mystery of the death of the lovely and popular actress, there apparently seem to be no clue to the deed. But there is a serpent-headed stick, belonging to the hero, under her bed, and a jade box with mysterious Chinese symbols. It took a clever man to trace the mo- tives and the criminal to their lair in the form of an old professor, ex- pert in. poisons, on the top floor of the apartment house. This professor, it is learned by the clever mystery un- ravelers, has a virtue complex and has committed the other murders in the name of a crusade for righteousness, leaving as a clue a quotation from the Bible each time. Of course, the hero, a young man to whom the detective takes a violent fancy and knows is not guilty all along, falls in love with the queer professor’s beautiful daughter. UPTON SINCLAIR. By Floyd Dell (George H. ‘Doran Co., New York.) This study in social protest, as the author describes it, is a critical study of a living American writer and the viewpoint he represents. It is not only a study of the man himself, but a shrewd study of American radicalism. One of the reasons America has not accorded first literary honors to Sin- clair, the author declares, is that he interprets American life in terms of class struggles which he points out is as yet alien to the idealistic concep- tions of the American intelligentsia in general. In this book there is an expressed de- termination.to present Upton Sinclair's faults as well as his virtues, although it is explained that the faults will be dealt with as those of a great writer. aint i age Si ) . - oR \ ) tl Ae rex MN, i \ : i} lath | UPTON SINCLAIR, From a woodcut by Maud THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MENTAL DIS- ORDERS, by Abraham Myerson, M.D. _ (The MacMillan Co., New York).

A COCKTAIL CONTINENTALE, by Bruce Reynolds (George Sully & Co., New York). A most amusing book of sips, real experiences and incidents is concocted in these tales of 24 countries. Not a little interest is stimulated by the drawings which run through the pages of the book. This travel tale, which is advertised as “concocted in 24 countries; served in 38 sips and a kick guaranteed,” wanders from the Boardwalk at Atlan- tic City to London, Paris, Deauville, Vienna, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Cork and many other cities and places. All is seen with the eye of the humorist and with the power to tell a tale in an interesting and amusing fashion. While this book will be of little use in telling the names of places to stop while in those countries, it really is very good as a guide for the places to eat, drink and dance and have a good time and where you may carry your sense of humor with you. BEADS OF SILENCE. By. Lilian Bam- burg. (E. P. Dutton & Co., New York City.) The trail of the beads of silence, a gorgeous, uncut, jeweled necklace, took @ vast part in tne unraveling of the murder of Sir Richard Weston and others mysteriously found dead with the beads in their mouths. The story of these weird episodes is entertain- ingly told by the author, and the ele- ment of mystery so necessary in this type of book is sustained untif the end. Sir Richard’s lovely daughter supplies the romance to the story, for she is quite innocently drawn into the mystery by refusing to be false to love. ee THE OLD STAG. By Henry William- son. (E. P. Dutton & Co., New York.) It is a lucky lad who can gather his lore of wild animals and their habits from such a fascinating book in which these little brothers of man in our fields, woods and waters and air are described with such thorough sympathy and understanding as well as a tech- nical knowledge of their species. The book is a series of adventures and nature stories in connection with animals and birds which have a real thrill and from which no boy—or girl for that matter—as well as the adult who “remembers the days of his youth” will be able to tear himself away until the last page is regretfully turned. _---- +e TOURING ENGLAND BY ROAD AND BYWAY. By Sydney R. Jones (Charles Scribners Sons, New York), To those who wish to visit Merrle England and travel over the roads and byways, aside from the beaten paths of the ordinary, tourists will find this book very interesting and helpful. This book is full of line drawings and photographic illustrations and careful descriptions of routes and places to visit and bits of. history which could not help but make a trip through Eng- lang with this as a guide most en- joyable. —_——<- - THE WOLF PACK. By Ridgwell Cullum. (J. P. Lippincott Co., Philadelphia.) The Wolf, the son of a missionary, orphaned by .a train wreck and taken as her own son by a half-breed woman, lived the life of the Canadian Rockies, bullied by Pideau, half-breed cattle thief and bootlegger, until, all unsus- pecting, the Wolf caught Pideau in a dastardly deed. The boy, cold and re- lentless; made Pideau cringe before him and won his increased secret hate. A story of this kind is nothing with- out a romance, and so the author has created Annette, the daughter of Pi- deau, the only thing Pideau loves more than himself The Wolf has a rival to Annette’s affection in Sinclair of the Grant-Ford. lé | ’ has just been published. UNKIND STAR,’ NANCY HOYT?S LATEST BOOK In her second book, “Unkind Star” (Alfred A. Knopf, New York), Naney Hoyt, the young Washington wfitér, has sprung a surprise on her friends and critics. In direct contrast to -her | first book, “Roundabout,” she has writ- ten an unsophisicated novel to which even a teacher in a girl’s school could not object. To a certain degree Miss Hoyt has not equaled her first attempts at novel writing in this latest book. It lgeks the flashes of daring and the bravado of sophistication which made her -first book readable. There is an originality about “Un- kind Star,” however which places” it apart from the many books daily com- ing off the press and creates the Hope that Miss Hoyt will continue her -ef- forts and yet treat us to the best frults of her possibilities in the literary Mie. The book is freely written, if a little surprisingly. Miss Hoyt has a habit a style of her own—of suddenly inject- ing her characters into the text of the book without any warning whatevér, The girls who grow up in this book are, indeed, strange children in the fitst chapters of the book. As young ladies loving and loved there is a greater Ting of truth about their characters’ In fact, the ending of the book generally is much better than the beginning, giv- ing signs that Miss Hoyt’s style and imagination improves with writing,’ a great asset for a writer, especially s young one. : This is a book that we might saiehe from a pile to read, even though we did not know Miss Hoyt. It is very doybte ful that it would be cast aside until read to the last chapter. We look forward to another book by this young author striking a happy me- dium between sophistication of her first book and the lack of it in a second effort. Not that we think that.the young writer intended that last book to be unsophisticated. At least she has given us a surprise and that ds something in the. book world as ¢6]sé@- where. V. P.W. ~~ ill. tain fastness to capture Pideaus. This is a story of the primitive West well told with a real regard for’ the emotions which sway these peopl¢,.of the almost impenetrable mountains, where “might is right” and the fear of the penitentiary is the only thing that holds a man from shooting his ngie?- bor. JUDGE COLT. By By William MacLeod Raine. (Doubleday, Page & Co.,-New York.) an Mr. Raine is one author who needs no introduction to the readers of West- ern stories. His latest book will, with- out doubt, meet with instant approval and enjoyment by his admirers. Jim, the hero of this story, is like all Raine heroes, a strong son of the West bent on finding the cowardly murderér of his pal. This search brings him to-bost Park, the home of outlaws and into a maze of mysteries. He fights his. way out for the sake of Pattie, whose father is suspected of being an outlaw... He solves the mystery, wins the affection- ate gratitude of Pattie and it all sane in a nice little romance, as should: all such stories. IN THE PATH OF THE STORM.

THE WASHINGTON REALTOR Published Every Sunday by the Washington Real Estate Board James P. Schick Executive Secretary Editor The Profession of a Realtor This headline has not been selected to introduce an original dis- cussion of the subject of the professionalizing of the realtor’s avoca- tion. It is the title of a lengthy editorial which appeared in the St. Louis Globe Democrat, in which editorial comment was made on an address of Robert Jemison, jr., of Birmingham. Realtors everywhere must naturally be encouraged by this sort of recognition and approval of the efforts of the national association and of local boards in all parts of the country to establish and maintain the highest possible plane for the conduct of realtors’ activities. In the editorial in question special praise was given to the educational work which has become so wide- spread throughout the country. the following paragraph: The editorial in question closes with “Locally as well as in many other places the occasional acts of un- worthy representatives of the business have been a regretted drawback on activities that have become indispensable to investment and par- ticularly to the enchanting and always important subject of home build- ing. What better way of combating such unworthiness than to place the business on a high educational and ethical level, to create within it @ professional status recognized as deserving of confidence? In other words, what better way of neutralizing occasional abuses than the very Way the association has adopted and is so successfully developing?” —From Knsas City Realtor. 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 unprincipaled agents or brokers.

IN TAX OUTUATION SURVEY Convention Delegates Give Much Attention to Problems Affecting City. ‘NATIONAL BOARD URGED TO PASS AMENDMENTS Directors Will Receive Pro- posals at Seattle Meeting Next Month. The members of the Washington Real Estate Board are vitally affected by the local tax situation not only because of their large ownership in land and prop- erty but also because of the effect upon business. The local board is taking a great deal of interest in the survey of the tax situation in the District as well as the tax ratio, assessment and budget. There are many tax experts in the Real Estate Board who have given this subject a great deal of attention and the local delegates are particularly in- terested in the tax question as dis- cussed by the national association which is giving keen attention to those problems which apply to Washington. Amendments Are Urged. Amendments to the constitution of the National Association of Real Estate Boards have been proposed which would enable the association under safeguards for the maintenance of its general prin- ciple that there shall be only one mem- ber board in any city to take into its membership organizations representing territory which, having been a separate city, has been annexed by a city in which the association has a member board, The proposed amendments, which have been drafted as alternative pro- posals, have been submitted to the 657 member boards of the association by the executive committee. The pro- posals were submitted without recom- mendation. They will come up for ac- tion by the board of directors of the association and its general delegate body at its coming annual convention, - be held in Seattle, Wash., August Dr. Charles J.

His ad- dress will be of importance in view of the careful study of the whole tax prob- lem, national, State and local, which is now being made by the National Association of Real Estate Boards and in relation to the program for coordi- nation and modernization of the tax system which the association is advo- cating for the equalization of the tax burden. Business Outlook Debate. Dr. Bullock, drawing from the studies of business and financial conditions be- ing made by the research organization of which he is head, will also lead a discussion on the present business out- look. This discussion will be held Thursday afternoon, August 11, as part of the program of the brokers’ division of the association. C. C.

Dilling, ex-mayor of Seattle, who attended the organiza- | tion meeting, will be host to the group present at the Seattle meeting, who are able to boast that they were present at the meeting of nineteen years ago. Reunion of Presidents. C. C. Hieatt, of Louisville, Ky., presi- dent of the association, and all past presidents of the association present at the convention will take part in the re- union. E.,\S.

JUNIOR LIENS ARE VITAL TOPIC OF CONFERENCE Decentralization of Business Districts to Be Explained to Delegates. The delegates of the Washington Real Estate Board who are to attend the con- vention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards at Seattle, August 10 to 13 and who anticipate taking the transcontinental tour from Washington to Montreal, Banff, Lake Louise, Van- couver to Seattle, are now studying the various questions which will come up before the various division meetings of the board. The programs are being worked out and arrangements are being made for the participation of a number of local members of the board. . Cities creep; their business districts shift, with huge slow movements, as glaciers shift. The weight of popula- tion pushes the central area out. Nor- mally the expansion follows certain fairly defined principles as to the direc- tion it will take. And with the creep- ing and sliding of business areas go tre- mendous changes in land values. The shifting of business centers, which the realtor and the investor in business property must constantly be measuring and foreseeing, will be pic- tured before real estate specialists of the United States and Canada at the com- ing annual convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards. Decentralization Is Topic. Shirley Ward, of Los Angeles, who has made an intensive study of decentral- ization of business districts, will speak on the movements which such districts undergo in an address to be delivered before the general convention on the morning of August 11. Junior lien for the aid of the home buyer and similar second liens as used by the investor in income property will be the central topic of the mortgage specialists who will meet at Seattle in connection with the coming convention. The topic will be brought up for discus- sion at the two-day session to be held by the mortgage and finance division. Henry R. Brigham, Boston, Mass., member and former chairman of the housing committee of the national as- sociation, will address the division on junior liens on homes. Talk on Junior Liens. Cc. V.

Chairman of the mortgage and finance divisions of various member boards of the national association and chairmen of mortgage and finance com- mittees of such boards will hold a round-table discussion on the closing day of the division’s meeting. The sub- ject will be the organization of local mortgage and finance divisions in real estate boards. John N. Stalker, Detroit, Mich., chair- man of the division, will preside at the meeting. What should be included in any code of ethics to be adopted by sub- dividers for safeguarding residential developments in American cities will be brought before the national asso- ciation at the convention. National Code Seen. Subdivider codes already adopted by the men actively engaged in planning new residential sections tn the city of Chicago and its environs, in the Long Island residential section, and in Milwaukee will be cited as the basis for a possible national code for sub- dividers. The State code already adopt- ed by the subdividers division of the California Real Estate Association will further come under discussion. The whole subject of subdivision codes will come before the home builders and sub- dividers division. Axel Lonnquist, of Chicago, vice chairman of the division, will open the discussion. Whether the subdivider should be also a builder will be the subject of a round-table discussion on the divi- sion’s second session.

COMMITTEE IS NAMED Constantly adhering to their theory that the beauty of Washington should be preserved and enhanced, the Wash- ington Real Estate Board has taken a keen interest in advocating the place- ment of attractive signs by their mem- bers on residential and business prop- erties. It is the hope of the board that, inasmuch as it is necessary to place signs on properties in process of transaction, they will be of such 4a character that they will not be inhar- monious with the general surroundings and will not loom as eyesores. Recently the board has created a spe- cial committee in charge of this ac- tivity, consisting of Clarence F. Dono- hoe, F. Elliott Middleton, C. A. Jones, M. P. Canby and Milton F. Schwab. The board has since been active in ref- erence to signs and soon they hope to make the local situation a model one, upon which various other real estate boards and communities can base their procedure in this regard. The board has been making a study of the situation and has received a number of suggestions from the poli- cies followed by boards in other large cities. The Los Angeles Realty Board has outlined the following rules for their members regarding the placement of signs: Surface and exterlor signs: No sign shall be erected without the permission of the owner. Signs should not exceed 12 square feet in area and should be at least 15 feet apart with a uniform setback and alignment. There should be no more than three signs to a single holding. Signs should be of metal or wood and artistically designed. No realtor should move or remove a competitor’s sign without notifying him. When property is sold, the selling realtor should inform others whose signs are on the property so they may be. removed. Window signs: Only one_sign should be placed in a window and na. more than three firms should be repreSented. Signs should be placed on the inside on uniform alignment. For attractivenes of display, stickers should not be used. Entrances, windows and stores should be kept clean.

Hurst, of Baltimore, Md., chairman of the division, will preside at the meeting. Real estate boards at points of general interest along the route to Seattle are scheduled to lead a double life in the days immediately preceding the convention. They wil} be host to @ succession of Realtor delegations passing through their cities and they will be at the same time organizing po gd own delegation for the convention trip. And in order that there will be no failure in the hospitality which they are. extending, they are issuing. their invitations to prospective guests with an “R.S.V.P.” Inasmuch as 700 California Realtors are expected to be at Seattle during the convention period, the California Real Estate Association, through its secretary, Glenn D.

AIDS HOME OWNERSHIP Indications that the better homes and building exposition to ve held by the Washington Real Estate Board this October, at the Washington Auditorium, will be considerably larger than last year are being given by the increase in demands for reservations for space as compared to this time last year. Already a great number of exhibitors who took part in last year’s show have indicated their desire to take space, and in a majority of cases desire larger and more elaborate exhibitions. Among the things that were of particular interest in the affair last year, and which are closely related to the home and its general prosperity, were exhibits by the Visiting Nurses Society of the District of Columbia, the American Red Cross, the Public Library, Potomac Electric Power Co., &c. It is expected that many of these exhibits will be again shown on a much more elaborate and informative scale. Every effort will be made by the com- mittee in charge of the exposition to have a well-rounded presentation s0 that the entire problem surrounding the realty and home-owning question may be dealt with not only specifically but branching out into those modern community services and latest sociologi- cal developments which in ‘he past decade have grown to be an increasing element in the family life of the nation. It is the purpose of the Real Estate Board not only to demonstrate the actual material question of home con- struction, selection and financing, but also to deal with the entire question of home ownership upon a basis of en- couraging a greater proportion of those in Washington who actually own their own homes. The entire question further develops itself into a rehabilitation of the family life of the Nation, which question has recently come in for s0 much discussion because of the alarm- ing situation with reference to the deterioration of this important element of well being of modern national life. It is being increasingly demonstrated that the real estate boards of the coun- try have upon their hands a problem which is not only a question of prac- tice and better business in the real es- tate profession but also has involved itself into a serious question of sound investment and sound community de- velopment. While the real estate boards of the country did not at first consider these problems, yet they soon present- ed. themselves, and the members were quick to realize that therein lay an op- portunity to demonstrate what public service a- large national organization could render to the people of the na- tion in addition to viewing purely pro- fessional interest, and it will be readily seen that the boards have increasingly sought to so set up standards and pre- sent to the general public in a practical manner the realty question, involving as it does the home, the savings and the investments of private citizens and the development and economic sound- ness of the community. One of the methods which the Wash- ington Real Estate Board has chosen to bring to the people of Washington the \general knowledge of these questions is the better homes show and the remark- able success of this undertaking last year has given every encouragement to local realtors to continue their en- deavor, particularly because of the many practical elements which have been solved as a result of last year's show which was attended by thousands daily. The committee in charge are A. N. Miller, chairman; Horace G. Smithy, Wilmot W. Thew, Thomas L. Phillips, T Curtis Walker and A. C. Houghton. Russell B. King, vice president of the N. L. Sansbury Co., left today for a two weeks’ vacation at the sea- shore. Francis A. Murray, secretary, also left on his annual leave. METHOD OF BUYING HOME 13 EXPLAINED BY MAURICE REIDY $3,600 Mortgage Costs About $140 a Year Because of Interest. SAVING HABIT NEEDED AT START, HE DECLARES New England Real Estate Board Man Tells History of Houses. MAURICE F. REIDY President of the Massachusetts Asso- ciation of Real Estate Boards. Back in the dim ages, long before history began to record for us the story of human events, prehistoric man, so it is said, first found shelter from storms and cold and the wild beasts in the caves of Southern Europe and other Mediterranean lands. It was the instinct of self-preserva- tion that guided him in seeking this shelter. What his manner of speech was we do not know, but from the evidence he left behind him we do know that soon he began a crude sort of housekeeping there, and his family life centered in these caves. With tools and weapons made from stones and the bones of wild animals, he hunted and provided meat for himself and his family group. Soon he learned how to make fire and to herd and domes- ticate certain animals. He clothed him- self in the skin of wild beasts. The wolf became a dog knowing his master. The wild horse became his servant, and though he was forced to move fre- quently, seeking new pastures for his fiock and new hunting grounds for his supply of meat, his increasing knowledge and sharpening powers of observation told him something in all this was lacking. He was a human being. He was dif- ferent from the dumb animals, and he had desires at variance from theirs. His affections were broader and were centered on other things than just food and shelter. Construction Work Begins. He began to construct. Probably his first shelter was a hut made of limbs fallen from the trees, to protect him from the hot rays of the sun or the cold winds from the North. We can see him now, back through the distant ages, probably enlarging this little hut shelter so his children could come and play about him as he watched his flock. He was a builder now. He must have learned that when the weather was fine it was pleasanter to sleep under this kind of roof than in a cave. Some sense of beauty had dawned in him. On the roof and walls of his caves he had begun to draw pictures. The bison and the deer and the wolf were scratched in the stone and crudely colored. n His desires expanded. He carried stones from the fields and built walls for his hut. Probably it was his wife who first suggested a shelf inside the hut, and then I am sure, she insisted on having a closet, because all wives are mad about closets, and wives in that far away day were probably as wise and knew how to have their own way as wives do today. I am sure that he stood outside this primitive house, his wife beside him, and his children grouped around and they looked at it with pride in their hearts, and he must have said, “This, is mine. I made it. My hands drew the stones and fashioned the roof. My mind conceived it.” And so for the first time in human history man had a home, not just a place of shelter. That was ages and ages ago (50,000 years ago some scientists say, and others put it at a much more remote period). But it was the dawn of civilization and at no time since, has man sur- rendered his love of home. Much of this story of ancient man is, of course, conjectured, but that man everywhere retains his love of home is an accepted fact. The Bushman has his grass hut in the wilds of Australia. The Eskimo in the fields of ice has his igloo, the Bedouin of the desert his folding tent, each in his own fashion his home, Today it is the ambition of nearly every normal man to own a home, To see his wife and children under a roof that is their own is a fine am- bition, and to attain it men and women do much in the way of deny- ing themselves pleasure and luxuries. Three is something fundamental in it all. The economies of it are sometimes a little puzzling and I would like to take a very few minutes on that sub- ject. Rent Payer or Home Owner? One must either be a rent payer or an owner, and both rest upon a sound economic basis, but it is interesting to consider how this rent paying totals up in a few years. If you pay $30 a month rent, in ten years you have paid $4,745, that is fig- uring compound interest on your monthly payments. And in twenty years, charging up interest in the same compound way, your payments have totaled $13,243.86. Of course, you get something for this. You have had a tenement or an apartment or a @ouse in which you have lived. But all the time you prob- ably have yearned, or your wife has, for a home all your own. You who are not home owners are interested to know, of course, what it costs to own this home. Let me assum* you have bought a little home for which you are to pay $6,000, and you have made a pay- ment on it of $2,400. (Though, of course, most homes are bought with a much less payment down than this.) There is a first mortgage to a sav- ings bank or an insurance company of CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 38.

Steps will be taken immediately to improve the approach to the National Capital from the Colesville pike to the District line along Georgia avenue, by the Silver Spring Chamber of Com- merce, following a meeting of the or- ganization held Wednesday night. Following a report of the committees to formulate a plan for the improve- ment and beautification of this sec- tion of Maryland, a resolution was adopted asking that the county im- mediately issue $30,000 in bonds au- thorized for general improvement of both sides of the Baltimore & Ohio sub- way. Commissioner Lacey Shaw, who Was present, assured the chamber that this action would be taken at once. An architect’s drawing of a tentative plan for the improvement of the Sil- ver Spring skyline was presented by Maj. E.

A commit- tee was appointed to investigate and advise upon a plan for improving the _ekyline of the neighboring community. Year’s Program Outlined. Charles W.

OF APPRAISALS URGED Newspaper Publicity Held to Be Valuable by Wilbur- Zimmerman. TALKS TO REALTY BOARD Atlantic City, July 16. — Newspaper advertising of the value of property ap- praisals by responsible organizations, protecting prospective investors, is of great worth and highly advisable, 1% was declared by Wilbur Zimmerman, vice president of the Atlantic City Real Estate Board, in an address before & meeting of the body in the resort. Mr. Zimmerman, who is also vice president of the Seaboard Fire Insur- ance Co., Atlantic City, pointed out that such advertising, particularly when maintained, spreads widespread knowledge of the availability of such necessary service, prevents unwise realty investments and generally aids the community. The appraisal system of the Atlantic City Real Estate Board, accepted gen- erally as a basis for financial transac- tions, was recently enlarged, so that the appraisal work is done by sepa- rate, disinterested committees in each instance, and the work of each re- viewed by still another committee whose personnel is also changed for each occasion. “But unless the prospective inves- tor Knows that such service is at hand,” said Mr. Zimmerman, “he can not be expected to make use of it, and often finds that he has paid more for s Underwood & Underwood.

The question. therefore, before us is, How can we do this? Two Methods Cited. “There appears to be two ways. One is to bring homeseekers from different sections of the country. To effectively offer our section to the nation at large, while highly desirous, is not possible for any single suburb. This should be done by a national campaign, con- ducted by the city and all of the suburbs. “The other is to draw them from the District of Columbia, its outlying sec- tions and from the streams of newcom- ers attracted here in steadily increasing numbers by our outstanding institu- tions of learning, reference and re- are willing to undertake it, and at 8] Water ....006.60... ees | for very considerable saving of cost.’ | F “Community advertising should re-| sult in attracting prospective residents | to our community, homeseekers, those | who wish to engage in business or| practice the professions, to establish | schools, colleges, &c.

Vision of Great City. “When we heard of the plans of the National Park and Planning Commis- sion and the Fine Arts Commission to make Washington the most beautiful city in the world, and that in carrying out this objective they proposed the extension of the parking and highway systems into Maryland and Virginia beyond the boundaries of the District of Columbia, we caught the vision of a great city and were filled with pride that we lived in a section where this great development was to take place. “We applauded when the Montgom- ery delegation in the State capitol provided the machinery for carrying out the plans of the National Park and Planning Commission. As a com- munity, have we done anything to cap- italize this great opportunity? Are we contemplating any action? It seems to me that the extension of the parking and highway systems of ‘Washington into our community will do more to make this the outstanding residential suburb of the Nation’s Capital, and if we fail to tell the people of Washing- ton about it, that they may come here and enjoy the privileges which we will enjoy, then we have failed as an or- ganization—missed our opportunity. “Two years agu @& group, interested in the development of this community, met to consider the wisdom of under- taking a campaign of community ad- vyertising. We considered that the time was not ripe then, but the meeting did result in the formation of this Chamber of Commerce. I believe, and I hope that you believe, that we should not now delay this undertaking. Ad Campaign Launched. “Our neighbors across the Potomac River already have launched a well- financed campaign of cooperative ad- vertising which covers a territory of 450 square miles and comprises Alexan- dria, Arlington County and Fairfax County. My information is that this campaign has been successful and that there is greater prosperity in the Vir- ginia suburbs today than in Washing- on. : “Community advertising i;. putting life and prosperity into the eastern shore county of Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. The Del-Mar-Va East- ern Shore Association in telling the country about the ‘Peninsula of Plenty’ is doing great work in coop- erative advertising and getting results. “We have the opportunity in this sec- tion to build a great community. We have the location, and, as Mr. Nichols of the National Park and Planning Commission expressed it, we have the rooling terrian to make for interestihg residential development. It time, through cooperative effort, to get started. Community Survey Urged. “As preliminary work to a succes: ‘ul campaign of community advertising, we should make a survey of the com- munity. This is necessary to provide -¢he material for a campaign to sell the advantages of the community. The survey will do more. Mr. Idler, mana- ger of the civic development depart- ment of the U. S. Chamber of Com- ade- | a | ness that we will be proud of. Appreciation of Beauty. “In the development of suburban | communities there is a steadily growing | appreciation of beauty as an asset, beauty expressed not only in the strict- ly residemtial sections but in the busi- sections of the suburbs. Mr. Nichols’ Sunset Hills in Kansas City tr Van Sweringsen Shaker Heights in Cleveland, are outstanding examples that beauty in architecture and street development of the business section pays. “As a result of this new idea we are creating trade centers of an entirely new and attractive nature. Here we have much to overcome, but we can make progress.in this direction by con- stantly working to get the builders to | think in terms of .beauty as a cold-| blooded business proposition. Any | community suburban to Washington | will be at a handicap that does not | recognize the importance of this factor | in building the community. “I feel that, to successfully compete | with other sections, we should be in a |} position to offer every necessary ad- | vantage and improvement generally re- garded as important in modern com- munities, and in this connection I sug- gest that we seriously study to what ex- | tent the lack of gas is a handicap, and | if we find that it is a serious handicap, | I think we should go about.to secure it. Unity Is “I feel that it is our duty to study | and keep in touch with the work of the | public commissions and private utility | companies serving this area; to study the local bills passed at the last ses- sion of the legislature affecting our community, and especially all bills in- volving taxation, in order that we may be in a position to discuss and take intelligent and fair action on such mat- ters as appear to affect our welfare and, prosperity. If we regard this as our duty, I am’sure that the Chamber of Commerce will come to be looked upon as expressing the will of this com- munity, just as the Montgomery County Civic Federation is generally regarded as the voice of the county. “In conclusion, I wish to say that all- citizens of this community who have her interest ‘at heart, who realize her unparalleled advantages, and will back an aggressive campaign to utilize them, in promoting our growth .and pros- perity, should enroll as members of the Chamber of Commerce and resolutely plan with us in our efforts to build up this section. The Chamber of Com- merce would be benefited, not only from the revenue derived from mem- berships, but also by the additional strength that an increased member- ship, recruited from the diversified in- terests of the community, will bring. “Under new business, I hope we will have a frank discussion of this sug- gestive program. If we feel that this community will support, financially, a program of this kind, that its results will justify the effort, then our suc- cess will depend upon the time, thought and enthusiasm which we put into the work of carrying it out. “We must not allow our interest to lag or our enthusiasni to be dampened by the inertia and indifference of those who should cooperate, but would rather drift with the tide; we must realize, as Meredith Nichols says, ‘Every community has its incurable pessimists who grumble on the side lines while the game of life is being played by men and women of vim and courage, whose determined will urges them on to vic- ae Recommended, tory.” Two New Exhibit Houses Now Open in Pictured below is a new F\*% exhibit Miller - built house, complete in every fi detail. age.

It has been the consensus of opinion from various groups that light manu- facturing and industry could be brought here, and the buildings de- signed to conform to the general char- acter of the city, giving employment to many, and increasing the amount of money in circulation. This move was promulgated with the organization of the Joint Industrial Council, of the Washington Chamber of Com- merce, Board of Trade, Merchants and Manufacturers Association, Washington Real Estate Board, and the chambers of commerce of Arlington County and Alexandria, Va. Commenting on the industrial future of Washington, Martin A. Leese; presi- dent of the Chamber of Commerce, said yesterday: “The Capital City of the United States is passing through a period of ell-sustained business prosperity. Numerous predictions have been made as to the future of busi- ness here, and these are all in the most optimistic vein. After intensive study, public utility organizations esti- mate a population of 1,000,000 in the near future. Statements of similar character have emanated from many sources. “It is natural,” declared Mr. Leese, “that every business man in Washing- ton should hope that these predictions come true. When we study the past history of the city, however, there are indications to show that while Wasn- ington has prospered during and im- mediately after war time periods, never- theless there has been a decided ten- dency for business to slow down some years after the end of such periods. “Although today local prophets are less ready to fix the exact time when the so-called housing shortage will be over, it is evident that there has been a considerable decline in building dur- ing the first few months of the current year. Coupled with this, there has been a marked increase in demands for chari- table al@l and tp the volume of local unemployment. “The civic leader stated he did not call attention to this situation with any though of overemphasizing its importance because there are many positive features, such as the Federal building program, to neutralize the ef- fect of the negative features.” Continuing, Mr. Leese stated: “If we refer once more to the past history of the city we find that the Civil War gave a decided impetus to manufactur- ing in the Natiomal Capital and in nearby regions in adjacent States. It would seem to take very little reflection to demonstrate that Washington's present prosperity is due in a large part to rapid increases in this industrial development. As a result of it, em- ployment outside of the Federal Gov- ernment is now afforded to probably more than 60 per cent of the working population of the District of Columbia. “If we are to profit by past experi- ence and to maintain the present level of prosperity, we must continue to en- courage a normal expanion of proper industrial enterprise in the Greater Washington area. Each year the need consisting of representatives | . ingly apparent. Washington in the past was primarily an importing center, and this fact was refiected in the high cost of living. At one time, for ex- ample, the ice used locally vas brought down by boat from the New England States; now it is manufactured locally im ice-making plants and in electric refrigerators. Every step of this kind is wound eventually to lessen the cost of living, while at the same time in/ creasing and diversifying local op- portunities for employment and for the investment of capital. “The Joint Industrial Council is now engaged in the task of compiling de- tailed statistical information covering all aspects of the work of local com- mercial and industrial firms. This is an extremely difficult task and calls for real cooperation from local business houses. A detailed industrial survey questionarie has been mailed out to local firms, the result of which will be held strictly confidential. The joint industrial council and the organiza- tions which sponsor it, sincerely urge that answers to these questions be sent in at the earliest possible moment. “The effect of the activities of the Joint Industrial Council are beginning to be felt already. A number of ways have been discovered whereby service may be rendered t6 existing industries which in time should result in material benefit to such enterprises. Valuable ad- vertising, which is cumulative in its effect, is being secured as the result of the chamber’s annual industrial exposi- tion. As an example, let me quote one of the vice presidents of the Metropoli- tan Life Insurance Co. of New York City, who writes: ‘I have advocated for many years that Washington be made the model municipality of the country. That result will be more likely ‘to fol- low when Washington recognizes itself both as the Nation’s Capital and as a working community in business and commerce.’ “In addition to possible henefits to existing industries, there is the ques- tion of securing new industries compli- mentary to existing enterprises. Because of recent inquiries along this line, the Joint Industrial Council has decided to appoint a committee on new indus- tries to give special attention to this as- pect of the problem. In this connection it has been suggested by experts as well as laymen that Washington offers ex- ceptional facilities for the manufacture of aircraft. “This whole question of proper in- dustrial development for Washington is one which vitally affects every resi- dent of the District of Columbia. Wash- ington has demonstrated its capacity to develop and to sucessfully conduct com- mercial undertakings, which are a defi- nite asset to the National Capital. Dur- ing the next five years there is special need for the intensification of efforts along this.line in order to insure that Washingtonians will continue to enjoy the fruits of well-planned and well- managed business undertakings.” William F.

ROAD . BIDS REQUESTED The Beaver Dam Country Club of Cheverly, Md., announces through its president, -Edward 8S. Brashears, the construction of a new eighteen-hole golf course, work on which has been started. Enlargement of the present course was made necessary by the rapid increase in club membership and growth in popularity of the club greens among Washington business men and other members in the Washington area. It is eventually planned to construct 36 holes, making one of the finest courses anywhere to be found around the Capital area. The course winds among the rolling hills and adjoins the individual estates of Cheverly, one of Washington’s suburbs. Simultaneous with the announcement of the enlargement of the Beaver Dam course comes the further announce- ment from owners of Cheverly proper- ties that bids have been asked for pav- ing the entire length of Marshall road, from LeBlond avenue, Cheverly, lead- ing directly to the Beaver Dam club- house. With the completion of this road members of the club will have ready access by auto to Washington over paved highway directly through the suburb of Cheverly. In announcing the enlargement of the Beaver Dam course, Mr. Brashears said: “The Beaver Dam Country Club will enploy the Park Amusement Co. to complete its golf course and manage 'its plant under the direction of the | board of the Beaver Dam Country Club. | This arrangement brings to the Beaver Dam Country Club a greens and club management of tested ability and long experience and furnishes the board of the Country Club and the committees of that club the highest type of organi- zation through which to work in the care, supervision and direction of the club affairs. “Work on the additional 18 holes has Brashears in May, 1928. The course will be con- of the club and Membership of as the capacity of the course will af- ford.” It is intended to make the new 18 holes an absolutely perfect course, and the plans in mind involve the ultimate construction of 36 holes.

The cost of construction has re- mained virtually unchanged during the past 60 days, continuing to hold a position twice as high as in 1913, ac- cording to statistics compiled by the Associated General Contractors of America. ‘ol The average cost figure for June, based upon reports from leading con- struction centers of the country, is about the same as the mark recorded for June, 1925. It is, however, mod- erately above the mark set one year ago. For the fifth month in succession, no change was noted in the average of wages paid in the construction in- dustry. Only two changes, each of them slight, in this average have taken place\in thirteen months, The average of prices paid by con- tractors for the basic building mate- rials remained at the same level in June that it held in May. The posi- tion was maintained despite minor fluc- tuations in the prices of concrete ag- gregates, common brick and lumber in several localities. Material prices at the present time are slightly above the mark they held a year ago and just below the plane they occupied in June, 1925. The average of combined construc- tion costs now occupies the 200-point level] on a scale which places the 1913 average at 100 as its basis. The average of wages paid holds the 227 mark. In only one month since 1924 had the wage average been higher. The 228 mark was reached in- May, 1926. The index figure for the average of material prices in June is 182. The figures registered in preceding months are: January, 179; February, 181; March, 183; April, 183; May. 182. ° ( RS ny \ swe \ a — : rie ples: ‘r ! pyent Pa ‘ke PRL wy , ‘ a Le ia. ay So —, ie Vo 7 ee ae . . a Saal a. .

CEDARHURST RESORT SHOWS BIG GROWTH Bauman & Heinzman, realtors and developers, announce that Cedarhurst, their closest Chesapeake Bay summer colony to Washington, has passed its pioneer days and is now in a stage of rapid development. ' Four years ago this firm took over the task of improving what was then merely a raw farm. The first two years were devoted entirely to the improving of the property. The roads needed care, a@ motorboat harbor was necessary, a wharf had to be built, cottage building had to be given an impetus. From the result of. the first two years’ work the third year started with sales; then peo- ple began to see and know Cedarhurst | and sales came in rapid succession. By the end of the year a very large number of lots were gone and more than 30 cottages built. Now, in its fourth year, Cedarhurst lacks the rawness of an infant develop- ment, It is a well-advanced, sanely restricted and beautiful summer col- ony, with an energetic Citizens Asso- clation and a monthly newspaper. It has perfect roads, a good beach, about 50 cottages, a regular garbage disposal, ice delivery, ehucksters daily pass the cottages with fresh fruits and vege- tables. Many Cedafhurst lot owners have motorboats which they may anchor in a perfectly safe harbor built especially for that purpose. Bauman é& Heinzman are again of- fering a silver loving Gup as a trophy for the largest fish caught in Cedar- hurst waters with hook and line. Since the first announcement of this con- test about three weeks ago many local anglers have traveled to Cedarhurst and tried their luck. It is not necessary to be a lot owner:to compete. The contest closes October 16. f Ingraham Street BUILDING PERMITS in the In- own Suburb 14th St. Terrace Developed by ~~ Another relatively small week for authorized new construction was noted yesterday in the amount of building permits issued to noon.

Such fixtures may cost less, but they soon develop shortcomings which cannot be repaired. The fixtures must be torn out and replaced, which is expensive. It’s far cheaper and safer to install good fixtures in the first Because of the very uses they serve, plumb- ing fixtures—if they are to remain sanitary— must have a finish as smooth and fine as glass. Anything less means—very soon—breeding spots and harbors for disease-spreading germs. Avoid costly and dangerous mistakes in buying plumbing. Members of this association will not gamble with YOUR health. They will give you your money’s worth—sound advice— personal service—and first quality fixtures— GUARANTEED. Anything “just as good” would sell for the same money. There is always a reason for a cheap price; it may be hidden but it is always MASTER PLUMBERS’ ASSOCIATION OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA 371 7 Georgia Ave. MEMBERSHIP IN THIS ASSOCIATION IS OPEN T§ ALL MASTER PLUMBERS WHO WILL CONFORM TO ITS STANDARDS OF PRACTICE. .

The chief Druid, Dr. ; ReRwae | MacGregor-Reid, conducted the cere- monies, which consisted mostly of in- cantations with upraised arms, to which the members replied in unison. A modern touch was injected by the singing of such a well-known hymn as “Lead, Kindly Light.” Druidism was the ancient religion of England, before the approach of Chris- tianity. Many Druid ceremonies were performed in the forests under spread- ing trees. At Stonehenge are tremen- dous stones said to have marked the spot of one of their places of worship. — CEES LQES 4 aN l, /. , 4\ VU eis mee NIN of = ~ Ss .

The and Washington is a good show town. is Robert Long, “road” is The de- manager not dying, fender of Bagdad on the Potomac of the Aldine Theater, Philadelphia. An erstwhile Washingtonian, Bob Long, came back to his whilom baunts last week to have a glimpse of the old town. Once he was the genial Roland Robbins, at Keith’s. Later he held the reins at the Rialto. After only two years away he is impressed with the progress manifesting itself in local theaterdom. assistant to Certainly, there is life hereabouts. . “As of the better within observed Mr. best show towns in the country. a matter of fact,’ Long, “‘Washington is one Philadelphia, of course, is a one—because Philadelphia has a greater number of people its portals. A bigger town is always a better town in the show bhusiness.”’ . 7 TANDING on the corner of Fourteenth and F streets, where the S National Press Club building is nearing completion, Mr. Long looked fondly at the artistic entrance-way to the Fox-Roxy Theater. “There marks the beginning of a new era in Washington theatricals, ’ he mused. With the opening of theatrical men from New York to Hollywood will have their eyes on Wash- ington. It means that competition will be keener.

The trend | there is that The Nation’s Capital makes an ideal spot to display new films. So much for Washington and its building operations; {ts plans, Philadelphia, near enough to be a sister city, makes ready for a num- ber of new theaters. As some of those to be built will be homes ci musical comedies and straight dramatic plays, Bob Long sees in this a direct refutation of the current opinion that the road fs dying. [If it is The road, And this dying, he argues, why are they building more theaters? as a matter of fact, is in bad straits; but it may perk up. word from Philadelphia is one of the first signs of recovery.

BILL$, BILL$, BILL$, WED.- DING BILL$ When the wedding bells are through ringing there are the bills to pay, but some times there’s a great deal more to it than that, as “Wedding Bilj$,”’ latest Paramount comedy, opening to- day at Loew’s Columbia Theater, proves. Best men can appreciate how Ray feels when life is just one wedding after another, with no prospect of im- mediate relief from the arduous duties of chief nuptial assistant. He swears off all weddings, but to no avail, for his best friend decides to get married, and Ray has to be there to lend moral | A blonde vamp and a super- | support. sensitive bride contribute to the sum of uncertainties, and the trouble com- mences. Ray is elected to pacify the | vamp who is much perturbed over the coming wedding since she was once | sweetheart of Tom Milbank, the bride- tinue going to the theater so long as the theater satisfies their wants. The moment the theater becomes lax, or cuts down the quality of en- tertainment, the public withdraws its support. In this day and gen- eration, it’s a wise theater that knows its public. The public, on the} other hand, knows the theater. What with the widespread publicity methods of the moment, the great number of magazines and periodi- | cals devoted to the stage and screen, theatrical fans of today are as well versed in current theatrical lore as were the astute managers of | yesterday; probably more so. They are the keenest critics and wisest | patrons the theater ever had—-in any land, at any time. i nae ggg great concern among managers and moguls of the theater to step out in | front of the parade. There was never such competition as this now going | on in the land of the theater. ‘The corporation is not by any means | closed. Any man with an idea may get in the game. Ingenuity and money, coupled, tend to create mew forces—and old producers sit un-| easily in the seats of the mighty. The game is always worth the can- dle. The stakes are high enough to create interest. The American | public has money and is willing to pay for being amused. All it asks | is a fair return. | With this condition, the theater in Washington and throughout the) land must; perforce, be in rather a healthy state. Bob Long sees great prosperity ahead—and better theaters in all branches. It stands to reason that, Washington must ever be in the vanguard, since here are rathered the cream of theater lovers from the four corners of the globe. On a premiere, in the assembHng of a distinctive first-night | audience, managers may present their wares in Washington to the cog- | noscente from all countries, the discerning and discriminating sent | here by various governments, Emotion, of course, and not intellect, is Managers much prefer maddening mobs rightly so. Nevertheless, a theater that thrives under the piercing | glance of the keen observer must, by its very nature, be out of the ordinary. Out of 700 or 800 possible film entertainments of the first | order, only 300 or so reach Washington—and these are the best films | made. Of course, the observation may be here made, if these are the best, what must the worst be? Likewise, in vaudeville Roland Rob- bins presents only those assemblages that are worthy of Broadway rec- | ognition. In the dramatic field the great number of try-outs brought! here stamps the city as a laboratory where work must be proved bo- fore it is finally ready for the provinces. At least, this is the opinion of Mr. Long, who, looking back over a period of 20 years or so in the husiness, points out that Washington reviewers of the past have built up a reputation for fairness and fearlessness, quick perception and calm criticism. J advances and the follow-up of current activities. Whereas in the long ago the theater used circus tactics in the purvey- ance of its wares, the general press agentry has toned down a bit. There are no more flamboyant advance notices; merely a‘straight, simple, setting forth of facts. Miss So-and-So will appear in the title role of Mf. Whoozit’s comedy, “The First of Its Kind.’ Superlatives have gone by the boards. Larry Beattus knows that while he might have the best show in town this week the best in town next week may be over at a rival house, the Metropolitan, where Nelson Bell holds forth. -And Nelson, when he comes to write his little pieces for the paper will be careful to: guard against overstatement of fact for fear that in the great race to give the public what it. wants his rival down the street, Corbin Shield, at the Rialto, may come forth with announcement of a superattraction. So it goes. Conditions have changed, and men and manners with them; all making for a finer and fairer day in the theater.

Last week their offering was a cleverly arranged plano-organ dialogue for which the popular song hit, “If You See Sally,” was utilized. The lyrics were presented on slides as a two-act drama, and A. W. Bernhardt, the Tivoli’s skillful électricians, worked out novelty lighting effects that added much to the effectiveness of the innovation. This is but one of a number of similar sur- prises which Mr. Beck and Mrs. Clark will contribute to the entertainment of the Tivoli patrons during weeks that immmediately impend. Comedians All. .

The high caliber of the ne bill will be maintained by supplemen tary offerings of unusual attractiveness The latest release of the Pathe Revie: will add a touch of color to the bill and the specially assembled Metropolitan World Survey will place upon the screen in visualized form the outstanding new events of the past week. ' The story of “The Notorious Lady’ has its inception in smart social circies in London, where an officer of hich rank in the British army discovers h wife in the apartment of another man Conscious of his wife's unimpeachab!e fidelity, he promptly shoots the offend- ing host, is brought to trial and up the truthful testimony of his wife cor victed of first degree murder and con- demned to death. On a plea of new e" dence and perjury in the first trial th: wife brings about a retrial of the case and then by actually perjuring her tes timony, succeeds in freeing her hu band under the plea of the unvritten law. Broken in heart and spirit he de parts immediately for the wilds co Africa, accepting his wife’s second tes- timony as the truth, from which pre- ° hilarious new | |for the particular role by measuring | every actor and actress by the yard- | ‘tage CO- | Punctured | | character roles, was chosen to play the | } ‘| roles are Ben Lyon, Lya de Putti, Lois | deserts her. who | directed “Tell It to the Marines,” one | | of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s notable suc- viously he had been shielded. Followe to the jungles of Africa by staunch friends and by his wife, disgraced t | her own false admissions, he is mads finally, through an engrossing chain of circumstances, to grasp the fulness o” | the sacrifice made by his wife on h behalf. This is but a skeletonized ou line of an absorbing tale which pro gresses rapidly to a dramatic climax of tremendous. forcefulness, visualizing meantime many episodes of strange ap peal in the most impenetrable wilder- nesses Of the Dark Continent. Mr. Stone and Miss Bedford are cas’ in the opposite roles of husband and wife, and in each part the player finds ample outlet for those talents which have made them favorites in the eves of the public. Supporting roles are in- trusted to Earl Metcalfe, Francis M« Donald, E. J. Ratcliffe, Ann Rork and others. ast The Symphony Orchestra of solo ar- tists under the conductorship of Mr Breeskin will contribute as their con- cert overture number the melody gems from Verdi’s opera “Il Trovatore,” and | for the recurrent theme number of the interpretative score compiled by Mr Breeskin for the orchestral accompant!t- ment of “The Notorious Lady,” “Hum- ming a Tune,” a new composition by Mrs. Eva S.

It is claimed that some of the executives with the big firms make a practice of using their power to intimidate actors and actresses and to cause them to abase them- selves and generally to grind their noses in the ground.

Beery’s trout ranch is about 90 miles from Hollywood, in a secluded canyon. He has developed and stocked about 50 pools along the course of a stream on the property.

Though “The Last of Mrs. Cheyney” deals with that type of society crook who’d forego the swag before he’d split n infinitive, the play has no element of mystery. One paddles along with it, as in a canoe on placid waters, coming suddenly every now and then to sud- den waterfalls of wit and situation. It’s to be at the National for the new week. Appears as Vamp. The “better haif” of the famous | vaudeville team of Murrey and Oak- land, the blonde and statuesgue beauty, | Vivien Oakland, appears m “Wedding | Billg,” the Paramount picture starring | Raymond Griffith, the current attrac- | tion at Loew's Columbia Theater. In | private life she is Mrs. John T. Murray. | wife of her vaudeville partner, and she | left the stage for pictures to be able | to devote more time to the rearing of ‘her daughter. In “Wedding Bill$,” she |appears as the designing vamp whose strenuous efforts to collect a diamond necklace promised her nearly wrecks two romances. a i Coming Theater Attractions a “If I Was Rich,” am illiterate title not justified by the funny things that happen behind it, will be the National Players’ offering for the week following presentation of “The Last of Mrs, Cheyney.” ‘This is the story of the rise of an obscure shipping clerk, written by William Anthony MoGuire, and which served as the first starring vehicle for Joe Laurie, jr. , The piece had its original premiere here at the Belasco Theater. “If I Was Rich” narrates the story of Jimmie Sterling, who rises above the hoops and staves in a shipping base- ment, to affluence and other things, mostly because he has merve and bears the same name as a South American rubber magnate. Masquerading as the magnmate'’s son he crashes Long Island society with a vengeance, The spuri- ousness of these contacts begin to manifest themselves when the kid's own boss enters and exposes him, fires him and hires him again, developing into a stauncher friend than those whom Jimmy had been trying to bait. Billy Pheips will have the Joe Laurie role, probably the best that has fallen to his lot this season. “Painting the Town” comes to the Rialto week starting Saturday, July 23. Gleen Tryon, a young comedian hith- erto little known, is the star. He plays the role of a small-town smart-aleck, Patsy Ruth Miller is the girl. The story of “Painting the Town” has to do with one Hector Whitmore, a country town inventive genius and smarty, who goes to New York to astonish the town with his imventions, principal among them being a front-wheel brake auto that will stop in its own length at any speed. He also wants to renew a chance acquaintance with Patsy De- veau, a Follies beauty. How he is framed by Patsy’s former sweetheart in his quick-stop demonstration for the fire commissioner and how he finally gets the best of those conspiring against him, to win a big contract for his ““‘wonder car” and also the heart of the Follies girl. “Is Zat So,” the William Fox screen version of the stage hit of the same name by James Gleason and Richard Taber, will be the chief photoplay at- traction at Crandall’s Metropolitan The- ater next week, beginning Sunday aft- ernoon, July 24, at 3 o’clock. In this highly amusing story of a pugilist and —— — his wise-cracking manager in exclusive social circles, the principal roles are played by George O’Brien as the fighter; Kathryn Perry as the gently bred hero- ine, and Edmund Lowe as the hard- boiled trainer. The supplementary fea- tures will embrace a new short reel comedy subject, the latest compilation of the specially assembled Metropolitan World Survey, added short reels and the tuneful contributions of the Metropoli- tan Symphony Orchestra, under the conductorship of Daniel Breeskin. Maryon Vadie and Ota Gygi with the Maryon Vadie dancers, will top the bill at B. F. Keith’s Theater for the week of July 24. By popular demand a George Arliss picture will be presented at the Ward- man Park Theater next week. “The Man Who Played God,” one of the fin- est of his films, will be played for an entire week. With more than a thousand people, a complete circus, and a notable cast, Lon Chaney comes to Loew’s Palace Theater week of July 24 in what is perhaps his strangest role, as an arm- less sideshow freak in a circus in “The Unknown,” his new Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer vehicle. The new story, written and directed by Tom Browning, is a Sensational mystery drama. Joan Crawford, Norman Kerry, John George and others. are in the supporting cast. What is described as a terrific drama of modern times, Metro-Goldwyn-May- er’s ‘“‘Women Love Diamonds,” featuring Pauline Starke, Owen Moore, Lionel Barrymore, Douglas Fairbanks, jr., and a notable cast, is announced as the at- traction coming to Loew's Columbia the week of July.24. Edmund Gould- ing wrote and directed the new picture. The foremost vaudeville attraction at the Earle Theater, beginning Sunday afternoon, July 24, at 3 o’clock, will be George Choos’ presentation of “Fables of 1927.” This is one of the most pre- tentious of the George Choos’ vaude- ville productions and enlists the serv- ices of a company of fifteen principals and supporting players. Another im- portant inclusion in the vaudeville por- tion of the new entertainment will be John Irving Fisher, a young man of pep, personality and marked musical ability, who utilizes a grand piano as his chief “prop.” Three other vaude- — ee ey EDWARD JOHNSON, famous tenor of the Metro- politan Opera Co., who will make his afternoon concert debut in Washington at Polw’s on November 11 as the first artist in Mrs. Wilson- Greene’s Philharmonic Course. _ ville acts of the first rank will reund out the stage portion of the bill. The photoplay attraction for the new week will be Producers’ release of “Vanity,” an intensely interesting comedy-drama in which the costellar roles are played by Leatrice Joy and Charles Ray. The bill will be completed by the customary house features. The screen subjects will be accorded pipe organ accompani- ments by Alexander Arons, concert ar- tist. Old-Timers. Marie Dressler and Frank Currier, who play opposite each other in comical scenes in “The Callahans and the Murphys,” Loew’s Palace attraction starting today, played together 25 years ago, when they were stage stars—when they made records for the phonograph together, AT HOME It’s not often an actress has a chance to “‘be herself” on the screen. And, be- cause she was herself, possibly, is why Sally O'Neil scored such a hit in “The Callahans and the Murphys.” Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer’s filmization of the Kathleen Norris romance—in which Sally is the heroine. “I had to play an Irish girl with a lot of brothers and sisters—five of them to be correct,” says Sally. “And that was pie for me—because I am an Irish girl with just about as many Irish supmare and sisters as the play called or, "When I had to fight with Eddie Gribbon, playing my brother—all I had to do was think of the scraps I’ve had with my brother Tom—whom I love dearly, just as the character in the story loved her brother in spite of their arguments. “It’s a pleasure to play an Irish role in an Irish play—with Irish people and even an Irish scenarist.” The new picture, which opens at Loew’s Palace today, is a hilarious com- edy romance based on the battles and reconciliations of two Irish families in New York. Sally O'Neil, playing Ellen Callahan, and Lawrence Gray, playing Dan Murphy, are the lovers and supply a delicate little romance. “It Just made me feel at home—play- ing with the children and the whole family,” said Sally, “and if I couldn’t be natural in an environment like that it would be just too bad. Anyhow, I know the Irish don’t believe in race suicide.” George Hill, director of “Tell It to the Marines,” directed the new picture, from a scenario by Frances Marion. From N. Y. Direct.

That's why Raymond Griffith is still a bachelor. He can’t make up his mind. Each new leading woman is more beautiful than the last one, Ray says, so he can’t fall in love with one of them because he’s always waiting to see what the next one will be like. Aan Sheridan is Ray’s leading woman for his picture for Paramount, “Wedding Bills,” the attraction at Loew's Columbia, starting today, and she almost surpasses description, ac- cording to Ray. If they keep on com- ing better and better looking Ray's days ‘of bachelorhood will be num- bered. He admits it himself. Griffith may be a high hat come- dian on the screen, but he has never worn a high hat in real life. Despite the screen makeup of frock coat and silk-topper in pictures he’s the most unassuming actor in Hollywood. His private life is a_ closed He lives in bachelor quarters and guards his privacy. Books are his companions a great deal of the time and he is probably one of the best read men in the industry. His regret is that he hasn't the build to be a hero in western’s hbe- cause he's “goofy over horses.” He rides for an hour three or four morn- ings a week before he comes to the studio Griffith was a writer and director before he became an actor and takes a big part in the writing of all. the stories in which he appears. book. History Repeating Itself. Eight years ago Raymond Griffith was best man at the wedding of Hallam Cooley. He was Cooley’s best man again to- day, but this time it was all in fun, Cooley being neither a bigamist, nor a widower, nor divorced The two funsters are playing together in “Wedding Bill$,” Griffith's new stat- ring picture, the current attraction at Loew's Columbia. Cooley has the part of Griffith’s pal and Griffith is the man who its always going to everybody's wedding but his own, until the girl who is different, played by Ann Sheridan, happens into his life and wrecks his bachelor philoso- phy. Countless “‘Cards.’’ Special parking accommmodations for automobiles at Chesapeake Junction, District line, are saving patrons of Chesapeake Beach both time and money. Attendants are constantly on hand. The beach is only an hour dis- tant by train. The road run is 40 miles and usually takes about two hours. The beach has countless attractions — salt water bathing, excellent fishing for hardheads, boating, music, dancing, boardwalk promenading, picnicking in shady groves, and numerous amuse- ments, including the sensational new wide, the Comet. Hotels, cafes, board- ing houses, stores, and refreshment booths offer every accommodation for visitors, whether they intend to spend a day, a weck, or a month. Local Composer. This week at Crandall's Metropolitan Theater will mark the first public per- formance of a new composition by Mrs. Eva S. Hoffman, wife of the comptrol- ler, Fritz DC. Hoffman, of the Stanley- Crandall Co., of Washington. The Met- ropolitan Symphony Orchestra of solo artists under the concluctorship of Dan- jel Breeskin has introduced several of Mrs. Hoffman's tuneful melodies, but, according to reports, none so appealing as her latest, which bears he title of “Humming a Tune,” which will be played as the recurrent number of the interpretative score arranged for the or- chestral accompaniment of “The No- torious Lady.” First National's new production, costarring Lewis S. Stone and Barbara Bedford. | Idea Man Wanted By the Big Producers There is an ever-widening field for the “idea man” in motion pictures. Producers are in the market to bid high for the man who can conceive and execute ideas. director of the famous German UFA organization,, was imported to direct “The Prince of Tempters,” featured at the Rialto this week. Mendes comes from the German school that sent this country Ernest Lubitsch and made the art of close-up photography bring out living cameos of intimate drama instead of animated portraiture of familiar star performers. Immediately following the war, and even during the war, the German peo- ple were producing motion pictures. The great majority of these produc- tions were far below the present Ger- man standard and almost, a negligible quantity in America. Out of the hundreds of pictures pro- only one production ever met favor in the United States, and that was the famous “Passion.” Lothar Mendes, long sought American producers, was finally con- vinced that the contract offered him to come to this country and make a pic- ture would allow a broader scope of production than he had ever been per- nitted to enjoy. His first American-made production is “The Prince of Tempters.” Featured in the cast are Ben Lyon, | Lyva de Putti, Mary Brian, Lois Moran, Ian Keith and Olive Tell. THREE TOF PLACES ON KEITH BILL Manager Robbins of B. F. Keith’s Theater announces that for the cur- rent week there will be three head- liners topping a bill of unusual merit. The first of these headliners will be the popular Leo Carrillo, late star of “Lombardi Ltd.,” and other successes, He will be heard in-“Little Stories From Life.” Next in line will be William. Gaxton, the well-known light comedian, and late feature of “The Music Box Revue.” He will be featured in Leon Errol’s “Partners.” The third member of the trio of headliners is the beloved clown, Toto. He will be seen with his company in his revue, “A la Minute,” La Petite Maxine, little Maxine Kin- dleberger, will be featured in her songs a la “Norabayian’” and her dances a la “Gilda Gray.” Lorraine and Minto, late stars of musical comedy, will appear with Mlle. Margarette Davies in “Miniatures Fran- catse.”” Next comes Block and Sully with their “The Two Show Offs,” by George H. Burns. Frank Richardson will make merry. He is Known the world over as “the joy boy of song.” Plenty of thrills will be offered by Tareila and Clark with their unique creation. An Aesop’s Fables, Topics of the Day and the Pathe News pictorial will com- plete the bill. Has the Spark. One of the greatest screen artists of the next few years will be Sally O'Neil, diminutive heroine of “The Callahans and the Murphys,” which opens at Loew's Palace Theater, according to Marie Dressler, internationally famous stage star. Miss Dressler, who played “Mrs. Callahan” in the new production, says Sally has the spark of genius that makes for stardom.

Through a drawing-room window, |dutifully opened during the dusting, Mrs. Farr’s querulous voice issued re- provingly: | “Christine, you shouldn’t stand out |there for all the world to see, when |you’re so newly widowed. It isn’t | proper. You seem to forget that Lewis was buried only yesterday.” Christine, clad in black as a conces- 'sion to the wishes of her conventional | parents, returned indoors with a sigh. | She was determined, throughout her | visit—the first one in so many, many years after the long estrangement—to yield in every way to her parents’ de- | Sires. She was willing to sacrifice every | personal wish, for she was glad that | the breach was healed Whether her |fame had done it, or whether her | parents had decided, after Lewis’ death, | that they ought to forget the past, she | Was unable to say. At any rate they had become very kind and helpful when she had taken Lewis’ body to his hame town for burial. “You'll be here for months, anyway, won't you, Chris?” her mother’ asked, a trifle wistfully, ‘when she had returned to the bright, sunny room, “I really can’t say, mother, dear. I |might have to go to New York imme- diately, if they start rehearsals on my play. But I’ve a novel to work on |here, if you’ll let me turn dad's den into a workshop during the day. I do so want to be with you all for a while, after the long, long years | apart.” She slipped her arms around her mother’s frail shoulders and kissed the straight, uncompromising part in the @ray hair. “I have missed you and Dad so!" she murmured. Mrs. Farr wiped away a tear. “I guess we missed you pretty badly, too. But you know how it was.” “Yes, I know!” nodded Christine un- derstandingly. And she did know. She understood her parents as she had never done be- fore. Her own sorrows had taught her their sorrow over the loss of their daughter. She no longer felt resent- ment at their refusal to help her, when she needed help so badly. They had acted according to their lights; just as she had; just as—Heaven help her!— Nina Marcy had. For somé, life and its irretrievable decisions turned out well. For others —like Nina. “The reason I asked if you'd manage to stay with us for several months,” said Mrs. Farr, “is that a couple of societies I belong to have been pester- ing me and pestering me to get you to speak before them. I've always told them I didn’t know when you were coming home, but now you're here—” She tried to be casual, but her mother’s pride was evident. Christine laughed. “Mother, Mother, don't tell me you've turned club-woman! Remember how you used to disapprove of Viola Dean?” “Club-woman, nothing!” exclaimed Mrs. Farr indignantly. “All these socie- ties I belong to are affiliated with the church or with hospital boards—charity, you know. But, even while we're sew- ing for the heathen, or the. orphanages, we don’t forget cultural things. Last winter we studied Tagore.” : Christine checked an exclamation of amusement. “Of course, I'll speak before your so- cieties, darling,” she tald her. “I'd love it. I’m not much of a lecturer, but the woman isn’t born who doesn't love to hear herself talk.” “Then I'll announce your talks for April,” said Mrs. Farr complacently, “By that time, you'll be out of first mourn- ing and it’ll be quite proper for you to appear in public.” “Oh, yes, yes, that will be splendid!” agreed Christine hastily, wondering how she was ever to put in the months of seclusion that her mother believed her widowhood demanded of her, She thanked her lucky stars for the unfinished novel that was awaited by her publishers. At least, she wouldn't have time to get bored and restive. If only Louise were with her, she would be almost Dapp. It hurt her horribly to realize that, though she loved and a couple of IPD) WD, WAZ yy ~ SA SSA a >» Maa AWAY «\ va WA _--- a She had a caller the following afternoon—Anna Morrison. understood her parents, there was noth- ing in common between them. She had a caller the following after- noon—Anna Morrison—the dear, un- derstanding Cousin Anna of the lean days of her early New York struggle. They fell into each others’ arms and then stood off and looked each other over with laughter and tears. Cousin Anna was plump and very prosperous in appearance. The rich, elderly relative in Omaha had died and left her her entire fortune. It was a fashionable and expensively, tf rather brightly, attired Cousin Anna, who sat in the Farr’s sedate drawing room. But her smile was the same good-hearted smile that used to warm Christine’s frightened heart when she would re- turn after tramping the New York Streets in search of a job. Her eyes were still as Kindly, and she still paint- ed her face quite as outrdgeously. “Will you ever forget the old flat, Chris?” she asked laughingly. “And that abominable divan-bed that used to collapse under us every other night | and had a disgraceful hump in the, middle?” “And the little Italian restaurant, | and the delicatessen, and how we used to figure the price of chops and, after buying three, we’d each politely refuse the third, until you'd pretend to throw! it in the garbage pail, and then I’d leap on it?” said Christine, “Ah me!” sighed Cousin Anna. “Fancy ever having had to bother about the price of a chop—or a roast! But if it isn’t one thing to worry us poor humans, it’s another, I'm getting old, Chris. That’s what bothers me. Tel] me what's your trouble—for I can see in your eyes that you've had one.” Almost before she knew it Christine was telling her about Clifford Vane. Cousin Anna listened and understood— as she always did. But she didn’t say very much—only patted Christine’s hand and looked very thoughtful. April passed quietly and merged into May, and Christine stayed on at home. June came again—the month around which had centered so much of her early happiness, She made lonely little pilgrimages to old scenes; the place where once had stood the bungalow to which Harvey Blanton had taken her as a bride the bigger, newer house that had seen the end of their marriage. It suited her mood when one day Cous- in Anna said: “Chris, I’ve the craziest idea! They say it’s a sign—that you're reaching your dotage when you go about remembering the past instead of living for the future, but—well, you remember the commencement dance at the university? ‘You were not yet 18, and I chaperoned you—you and Harvey and Lewis. Do you know what I'd like to do? Here I am.a rich, old woman, absolutely without ties, who could go to Paris or London or Vienna or China, if I wished, and all I can think about _ are wanting to do at this moment is to go back to the university for the com- Mmencement exercises. I guess I’m get- ting senile.” Christine’s imagination took fire im- mediately. She, too, had been living in the past for the last few months; par- ticularly the last few weeks. “Let's go!” she cried, with sparkling eyes. “Oh, it’ll be fun!” And then her eyes clouded and she said: “Or will it? ‘With so much gone of life and love—’” But she straightened her shoulders gallantly. “Who's afraid?” she laughed. “Even if it makes us feel a hundred, let’s go and play we're invited to the com- mencement dance and that two beauti- ful young men are waiting for us at the station.” So it happened that Christine, accom- panied by Anna Morrison, saw again the old, gray, ivy-colored walls of the little college station from the window of her parlor car. She rose with the laughing, chattering throng of young girls, powdered her nose from a jeweled vanity case, gave a last glance into the mirror at her own trim, youthful figure in a frock and hat that proclaimed Paris, and descended to the crowded platform, The first person she saw in the crowd that milled around her was Clifford Vane—older, with silvered temples, but unmistakably Clifford Vane. (Concluded tomorrow.) Bullfights Too Rough To Please the French Paris, July 16 (A.P.).—Bull fighting seems in a fair way to kill itself tn France. The public putting-to-death of the animals in the “Corrida” at Orleans re- cently stirred opposition. When one of the bulls mistook a dress rehearsal for the real thing and gored the Spanish matador, Chiquito, there was further indignation. The real thing in bull fighting is for- bidden in France, but it is said that en- forcement of the law in the south has often been very lax.

In England they still prefer No Trumps for many types of hands which we class as suit-bids; but they will not bid No Trumps as lightly as we do now in this country. It is a case of temperament. The conservative Eng- lishman takes up new ideas less read- ily than we do; but frequently he fol- lows us eventually in matters of Bridge laws and conventions. Recently I found the following ex- ample hand in a London newspaper, | would say a ‘bid’) on a weaker hand bid, South having passed. The English authority comments as follows: “This case illustrates a very impor- tant point in bidding; namely, that where Dealer has passed, the Second |Hand can make a declaration (we | than in any other place at the table. |The Fourth Hand after three passes |meeds a stronger hand than any other | player to open the bidding. If West | passes, East will probably pass, unless | he has an extremely strong hand; and | the combined hands which, together, must yield a game, may be wasted.” I heartily indorse all this; it is a line of sound reasoning to which American writers have given too little attention.

He said he believed he would have few, if any, changes to suggest in his district, although his inspection tour is not yet completed. He has already visited Boston, Providence, Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, New York and other cities. Later he will go through the up-State New York region, stop- ping among other cities in Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse, Boston Puzzle Solved.

The words are by Robert Cameron Rogers, a native of Buffalo and a “The Rosary,” ture and entertainment in New York City are “Nemo” points, or “pick-up” stations, for programs regularly broad- cast fromm WJZ and WBAF, key stations in the blue and red networks of the National Broadcasting Co. “Nemo” to radio engineers and opera- tors of the National Broadcasting Co. is a coined word, of no original technical significance, for the “use of wire telep- ony as an adjunct to radio broadcast- ing.” This latter phrase was ordered to supplant “remote control,” the term first applied to outside studio broad- casts, in 1923 when it was decided that “remote” was incorrect and unexplicit. For a while members of the organi- zation wrestled with this long-winded appellation both in reports and instruc- tions. But it was too long and too often the entire meaning was garbled. Various names were suggested and tried out with little success. One day while giving hurried instruc- tions for the installation of one of these contacts, G. E.

The question as to whether telepathy has any real analogy with raidotelep- athy is one that must remain, io some time at least, unanswered. Never- theless, the test apparently resulted in several definite conclusions. It was carried out by a committee of three, consisting of the Rev. J. H, J.

The third person to sing Butterf ly was Florence Easton, who also made a great suce cess in the role. Department of Agriculture Is Wanted. There is a good job here awaiting some young man who has the requisite Wiedge of radio and farming. It is ‘position of chief of the radio serv- ice of-the Department of Agriculture, $6 efficiently held by Sam Pickard that hé used it as a stepping stone to sec- retary of the Federal Radio Commis- sion, the position he now occupies. Since Mr. Pickard left the department last March, Miss Josephine Hemphill haS been carrying on the work tempo- rarily. The duties of the chief of the Radio Service are to supervise the dis- tribution by radio of educational in- formation from the Department of Agriculture. He is expected to make and. execute comprehensive plans for the educational use of radio by all of- fices and bureaus of the department and to arrange for the preparation of material and assist in its adaptation to the needs of broadcasting. The entrance salary is $8,800 a year. Advancement depends upon individual efficiency, increased usefulness, and the occurrence of vacancies in higher po- sitions. Handicapping some of the applicants is the fact that those who would -be considered must submit to a civil serv- ice examination. Competitors are not required to report at any particular place, but will be rated on their educa- tion and experience and on a thesis. Applications are all to be in by Tues- graduate of Yale; the music by Ethelbert Nevin, who was born near Pittsburgh in 1862 and who died at New Haven, Conn., in 1901. “The Time of Parting,” by Henry Hadley, composer of 156 songs and piano pieces, several operas and other musical compositions, will also be sung by Mr. Althouse. The second selection is “‘The Bitterness of Love,’”’ by James P. Dunn, of Jersey City, an organist and a writer of much fine music. ‘“The Bitterness of Love” is one of his songs which has been made famous by John McCormack, the Irish tenor. The complete musical program is as follows: “The Time of Parting” (Hadley); “The Bitterness of. Love’ (Dunn); “The Quiet of the Woods,” Franconian folk song (Reger); “Cielo E Mar,” from “La Gioconda” (Ponchielli); “The Rosary” (Nevin); ‘“Tally-ho” (Leoni), and “The Living God” (O’Hara). Rudulph Gruen will accompany Mr. Althouse. The service of the First Congregational Church from the Metro politan Theater will be broadcast at 11 o’clock this morning. Dr. John L. Clark, of Brooklyn, N. Y. will preach the sermon. The Interdenominational Church Service, under the auspices of the New York Federation of Churches, will be on the air at 2 o’clock. The Rey. William Verner Nelson, pastor of the Third Church, Disciples of Christ, Philadelphia, will be the speaker.

MOTOR BUS HOLDS UNIQUE PLAGE Ao COMMON CARRIER Now Covers Several Thou- sand More Miles Than Rail Lines. ROADS NOW USE BUSES FOR MOST SHORT HAULS | 80,000 Vehicles Operated in U. S. First of Year; Schools Are Benefited. By A. J. MONTGOMERY. Motor bus lines in the United States mow cover several thousand more miles of route than the rail lines. And it was less than ten years ago that transportation experts sagely nodded their heads when the future of the motor bus was discussed and firmly asserted that the bus never would be @ competitor, much less supplant the rail lines. Today the motor bus as a common | carrier has not by any means supplanted the rail line, but it has supplemented it at every turn and on short hauls has, in many cases, been found a quick and economical substitute. The fact that there are now 270,000 miles of route covered by common car- rier bus lines, as against 257,000 miles of rail line, a fact perhaps not very generally known, shows the extent to which the motor bus has entered into the transportation problems of the United States. The immense sums pald in taxes by the motor bus companies and the vast army of passengers and bulk of freight carried are testimonials to the fact that the motor bus has come to stay, and if it has not revolutionized transportation problems, at least has given them a new twist which now is recognized by traffic men of every suasion—steam and elec- tric. These hitherto little known facts and a host of others which shed surprising light on the extent to which the motor bus as grown in importance are gleaned from a new publication of the bus di- vision of the American Automobile As- sociation, called “Bus Facts for 1927.” In this little volume, for the first time in its history, salfent facts about the motor bus industry are compiled in a graphic fashion, and are readily under- standable to the layman and experts alike. 18,000 Motor Buses Used. The bus division otf the A. A. A. is the national organization of operators df motor buses, awa its membership in July, 1927, cons:.ted of 22 State and district motor bus associations and sev- eral individual member companies, rep- resenting in excess of 18,000 motor buses. The booklet Just compiled con- tains practically all the sgfatistics and facts obtainable from reliable sources which have any bearing on the indus- try, and is presented in such manner that it may be grasped without tedious groping through columns of figures Some of the outstanding points em- ,/593 transported. ‘east spent the most money on this phasized are: There are 32,425 buses used in com- mon carrier service. There are 32,800 buses used in carry- | ing school children back and forth from home to school. Total passengers carried by all buses in 1926 were 2,395,000,000. Of the total passengers, 2,100,000,000 were transported by common carri.rs. Total investment in rolling stock, ter- Mminals, garages, &c., amounts to ap- | proximately 455,000 000. | ——EEEEEE end es Total gross revenue of common car- rier bus lines in 1926 was nearly $300,- 000,000. Taxes paid by motor vehicle operators in 1926 are estimated at $712,000,000 out of a total bill of about $1,000,- ,000. Of the total of 80,000 motor buses in the United States on January 1, 1927, 42,040 were engaged {n common carrier operations. These were divided into 31,- 500 intrastate carriers; 2,500 interstate carriers; 7,284 electric railways and sub- sidiaries; 756 steam railroads and sub- sidiaries. There were 38,000 noncom- mon carrier operations, divided as fol- lows: Hotel buses, 1,050; .sightseeing and tour companies, 2,650; industrial uses, 1,100; schools (public and private), 32,- 800; miscellaneous, including railroad term|nab companies, 400. One of the most interesting features brought out in Bus Facts is the extent to which motor buses contribute to ed- ucation. Gone are the days when the scholars in rural communities had to get up at break of dawn and trudge many miles to the schoolhouse. Now the pupils get up at the same time as the rest of the family, have time to eat a good breakfast and stroll down to the main highway, where a com- fortable bus picks them up and con- veys them to school. After hours, the bus deposits them at home. It is es- timated that at the beginning of this year the 32,778 buses engaged in this transportation carried 875,462 children over 316,045 miles of road to 13,874 schools at a total cost of $23,430,195. Looking over the figures as related to school children by geographical] dl- visions, the Southeast is shown to lead in this means of transportation with 299,161 children carried, while the Northeast was a close second with 284,- However, the North- transportation, the total being $8,169,- 079, as against $5,659,139 spent by the Southeast. For individual States, Indiana took the palm for the greatest number of buses operated, the greatest number of children carried, largest total milage and greatest total expense. In this State 4,000 buses carried 100,000 chil- dren over 44,000 miles of route at a total expense of $3,000,000. The steam railroads, not long since scoffers at the utility of the motor bus as a common carrier, no longer sees things in the same light. There are now 60 steam roads using 756 motor buses either directly dér through sub- sidiaries. Electric railways are using 7,284 buses, whereas in 1923 they used only 1,200. And there were many elec- tric railway men who had little faith in the future of the bus. One of the outstanding features of the motor bus industry as brought out by Bus Facts is the mileage covered which now is almost 2,000,000,000 miles. For common carrier buses the mileage has ascended steadily since 1923, when 1,350,000,000 miles were recorded. In 1924 the total was 1,534,000,000 miles and in 1925, 1,687,000,000 miles. Buses Double Mileage. The number of buses covering this astonishing mileage have doubled sinoe 1923, the booklet shows, there being in 1923 only 40,000 registered. A year later the registration had climbed to 52,225, touched 69,425 in 1925 and last year exceeded 80,000 units. In the matter of comfort for pas- sengers, the motor bus industry has made constant improvements. The time when passengers making long trips at night were forced to huddle in their seats, suffering through the long watches from cold, aggravated by @ cramped position or heat, made more irksome by dust filtering in from the roadside, is rapidly disappearing. Nine lines now operate sleeper service, where the passenger can enjoy all the com- forts of a Pullman berth without the | discomfort incidental to train berths resulting from cars being shunted from track to track at the terminals. A strong tendency toward longer wheel “bases is another indication of the striving for comfort on the ‘part of manufacturers. It is claimed the large wheel base makes riding easier as well as increases the speed. In 1922 more than 45 per cent of the wheel bases in use were under 150 inches, at the present time only 7 per cent fall | in that category, while 40 per cent are Passenger cars represented Auburn Buick Cadillac Chandlei Chevrolet.

In like manner the F pyres of the heavy duty chassis has constantly in- creased until in 1927 more than 50 per cent of models offered bus operators were in the large-size class. This com- pares with 41 per cent in 1922. Along with the heavy duty chassis has come a steady increase in the use of six- cylinder models. In 1922 the percen- tage of six-cylinder models was 7.6, as against 92.4 per cent of four-cylinder styles. The ratio changed gradually until 1925, when six-cylinder models showed 27.5 per cent, as against 62.5 per cent of four-cylinders. In 1927 the ratio was six-cylinder, 75.6 per cent and four-cylinder, 24.4 per cent. Production Has Increased. As the styles in chassis have changed, the production has increased steadily. According to quoted by “Bus Facts, 13,687 chassis made by 62 manu- facturers and four operating companies went into bus service in 1926. This figure does not include truck chassis used with bus bodies, nor bus chassis used for other than bus operations. Chassis for light duty constituted the greatest percentage of the total pro- duction, with 5,999 units of 43.8 per cent as compared with 38 per cent in 1925. Fourteen manufecturers produced an average of 429 units each in this class. Second in importance were heavy duty chassis, with 4,982 or 36.4 per cent of the total as against 35 per — —_ ee ne wm ee eee nl cent in 1925. Thirty-three manufac- turers producing chassis only in this class bullt an average of 62 each, whereas thirteen building complete vehicles turned out an average of 218 units each. The medium-duty fur- nished 2,706 units or 19.6 per cent of the 1926 output, compared to 28 per cent in 1925. Fourteen makers in this class built 2,102 chassis, and four pro- duced 601 complete vehicles. In the building of bodies for buses, comfort and safety has been the aim of the manufacturer as well as in- creased carrying capacity. One of the outstanding features of body produc- tion in 1926 was that the potential carrying capacity of all bodies bullt is larger than in any previous year, even though a smaller number of bodies were constructed. This is said to be due largely to the growing demand for large capacity units. Potential carrying capacity of bodies built in 1926 was 284,925; in 1925 it was 180,- 425 and in 1925 it was 281,944. Production for 1926 of 10,653 bodies ‘was divided among 117 body builders and nine large operating companies. It was 817, or 7 per cent, below the 1925 total, and included only 210 double- deckers, which makes the increase in carrying capacity all the more valuable. The 29-passenger street’ car type comes first in the production total, with 1,432 bodies, a gain of 108 over 1925. Second is the 25-passenger school bus, with 1,163, an increase of 269. - ‘SUNDAY, J ULY 13, a Third comes the 29- par car, with 912. Sightseeing and touring as well as thé intercity” uses of this type of bus are said to account for its growing popularity. One argument advanced by oppo- nents of buses for use as common car- riers in the early days was that they would not provide the same margin of safety as other means of transporta- tion. The fallacy of this contention is clearly demonstrated by “Bus Facts" ‘by the presentation of a report of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles of the State of New York for 1926. Thig shows the total number of accidents in which buses were invoived to be 699, of which only 24 were fatal. This com with a total of 43,261 accidents passen- ger cars in the same period, of wich 1,291 were fatal; 11,915 to commercial cars, of which 562 were fatal; 14,479 to taxis, of which 209 were fatal, and 1,219 ro motorcycles, of which 40 were fa- ta The chief element entering into the modern transportation problem in the cities is the matter of street space, and the claim is made by “Bus Facts,” backed up by comprehensive figures, that the bus effects a large economy in this réspect. Comparing seat capacity of 68-pas- senger covered coaches with average standing loads of 110 persons in street cars (as found by actual count in rush hours) the coach uses less street per passenger than the average street car. The 68-passenger vehicles now being lor} used are 1927. 29 feet 6 inches long. The average re lengtt of street cars in the city where the comparisons were made—ot which there were 3,417—was 48 feet. Three thousand four hundred and sev- enteen of these street cars placed end to end would cover a distance of 164,- 016 feet. The length of 4,700 coaches required to do the work be done by those street cars would be 138,660 fect, or 15 per cent less lineal street space. Street Space Given. The 68-seated coach passengers use 3.2 square feet each of street space, as against 3.4 square feet for 110 pagsen- gers (66 standing) in street cars. The street car would occupy 408 square feet. The motor coach would occupy 231 square feet. The saving in total space by substitution of these coaches for the cars would be approxi- mately 22 cent. In addition to these figures, it is recalled that the mo- tor coach is far more mobile and less obstructive of traffic than the street car. An interetsing survey made in Call- fornia, to show the class of bus riders and whether they ride for business or pleasure, is given in the booklet. This tabulation shows that the largest num- ber of pleasure riders were among the unemployed, 147 of the jobless whiling away their time in this manner as against 94 of their brethren who used the buses to seek employment. The most numerous class of bus riders was found to be those engaged in special- — ——- - ——_—_—— —-—— - ized employment of major mental ac- tivity, of which 308 rode for business reasons as again 70 bent on pleasure. Business and professional men were next in number, there being 222 rid- ing.on business and 33 for pleasure. The economic aspects of the motor vehicle industry assume an important proportion when compared with the in- vestment in steam railroads, which it equals. For railways and equipment, these figures are given in the booklet: Miies, 251,000; locomotives, 70,000; freight cars, 2,440,000; passenger cars, 56,500; rail motor cars, 500; total units, 2,567,000, showing an investment of $25,000,000 and an annual cost of $6,310,000,000. Improved highways and motor vehicles tabulate as follows: Miles, 495,000; motor trucks, 2,500,000; automobiles, 17,430,000; motor Buses, 70,000; total units, 20,000,000, showing an investment of $25,000,000 and an annual cost of $12,125,000,000. While at one time general taxpayers contributed a large portion of the cost of highways, the proportion of such moneys going into highways has been decreased rapidly, “Bus Facts” states. The Nation’s highway bill has averaged about $1,000,000,000 annually for the past four or five years. Statistics given show that taxes paid by motor vehicle operators alone strictly in relation to their use of motor vehicles was, in 1922, $334,901,000; in 1923, $471,548,000; in 1924, $551,400,000; in 1925, $667,000,000, and in 1926, 712,000,000.

ee ee EN ANE ~— TN MERCHANDISING DF CARS, SAYS CRAM Service Being Sold, Rather Than Just Autos, - He Declares. IMPORTANT BECAUSE OF STANDARDIZATION Campaigns Planned to Edu- cate Salesmen in Worth of Repairs. A new era is dawning in automotive merchandising. Service is being sold, rather than just automobiles. While the old adage, “There is noth- ing new under the sun,” also applies to this situation, it is really new to see the entire industry stressing its activi- ties in this direction, says B. H. Cram, resident of Cram’s Automotive Reports, ndustry authority. Production for many months has been subordinated to sales, and as a result both have run along on a more eveR keel than ever before. Speed, lines, col- or, riding qualities, appointments, all have featured the manufacturers’ ef- forts to outsell one another. And re- sults have and will be obtained by such merchandising methods. However, as the industry comes closer and closer to a point of standardiza- tion, services looms up as the most im- portant factor in determining future progress and success. Thus today we find manufacturers building their mer- chandising programs around this feature. No chain is stronger than ita weakest link, and no automobile manufacturer's product is stronger than its service fa- cilities. And so the present task is to build that strength. Service departments In many of the factories are being enlarged, both at the plants and in the field. Campaigns are being planned to educate the selling organizations in the importance of serv- ice and also to further increase service connections. Also, much thought is be- ing given to ways and means of holding down parts’ costs, so that “genuine” parts will be handled in place of those manufactured by other companies. Henry Ford realized the importance of this factor in his business many years ago, and, it was largely because of the fact that Ford parts and services were obtainable, at minimum costs, in every part of the country that Ford produc- tion was able to climb from 195 auto- mobiles in 1903 to 2,090,959 in 1923, his peak year. And, it is on service that Henry Ford is going to largely rely, following the introduction of his new car. The com- pany is building its merchandising Plans around this feature, But. not alone is Ford going to ap- peal.to the automobile buying public on the importance of service—the en- tire industry is going to stress it. The work is not being confined to the manufacturers either. The dealer organizations are carrying it on through their business. The old dealer method of selling an automobile and “calling it a day” is rapidly passing. Today. the sale of an automobile is just the starting point for the real progressive dealer. -_— nae eee — — Servicing the car —_ —___ __ — ———— —_——-~ — — a a —_— —— Ee GS : ygieer oe 4 Pa ee GE: iy ; ‘% . d 2 ed A new principle of economy in day. ee ea a Sas oe Prgeere: eee ererenneenrrnrene scone — Po eee ne 00 Ot e - _—_, Ca ay Ca Ph a BP DISTINGUISHED BY A NEW MOTOR af rt het eee bs 9) oe ee ha dione . y _— motor fuel is embodied in the latest Hudson model, announced to- New body designs are also incorporated. is the “life” of his future success, He realizes that not only does this work pay much of his overhead, but that it rightfully belongs in his shop in order that he may keep & satisfied customer and future purchaser. This in turn lis the greatest good will builder that any dealer can develop. And so, a survey shows that dealers in many parts of the country are no longer employing just automobile salesmen, but service salesmen. They are dividing up their territories and assigning a man to each division.. It is the duty of each salesman to not only develop new car sales, but to keep every owner of the make car he is selling a satisfied customer, through service. He is paid a commission for both classes of work. In years gone by, service was regard- ed as an unfortunately necessary ad- junct to new car sales. Today, the entire industry is apparently realizing that service is the biggest and best thing it has to sell. GREAT DEMAND SEEN FOR FALCON-KNIGHTS Production Being Maintained at High-Tide Schedule for New Car. With production of Falcon-Knight Six being maintained on a high-tide schedule to meet the unusual demand being registered in all sections of the country for this Knight-engined car, indications are that this popular de- mand will continue throughout the last half of 1927, according to officials of the Falcon Motors Corporation, build- ers of this new six-cylindered product. The unusual acceptance of the Fal- con-Knight Six has met since it was first introduced on the motor mart a few months ago is attributted by Fal- con Motors officials chiefly to the growing popularity of ‘the Knight sleeve-valve motor, the type of power plant employed in the Falcon-Knight. In this connection, officers of the Fal- con organization point out that the demand for this new six is not con- fined to any certain section of the country, but is general throughout. It is conspicuous that in the many sections of the nation where Knight- engined cars have enjoyed unusual popularity, the Falcon-Knight Six also has shown marked sales increase each month since it was first presented. This healthy situation, according to com- pany officials, applies to Canada” as well as to the important trade centers of the United States. em a ee gid e ‘Remarks Ability to “get away with it” has been the primary reason for the con- stantly increasing motor fuel taxes now existing in this country. Starting low, they have risen until today they amount to 124% per cent of the total gasoline bill, it is estimated. What street is the Capitol on? Sounds simple, doesn’t it? But try to give a perfect answer. Gil Ben- singer is the one who has worked out the correct solution. Walter Lambert has solved the weather « 1estion.

His boat, now on the Chesapeake, is again in commission, and he has completed his studies in star and sun reading so that he can plot a course. Who remembers when Bill Jose used to sell as equipment for auto- mobiles headlights, speedometers and demountable rims? Not so many years ago. “Coal Oil Johnny” and “Bob” Worth- ingtom were never pals, though both engaged in the same general line of business, with this difference, one sold his product for lamps and the other sells it for automobiles. Give “Bob” Greenlaw plenty of bait, good tackle and a spot where the fish will bite and he is content with the world. “Admiral” Frank Baum expects to assume command of his fleet of row- boats some time in the next ten days.

Cy Hawkins is still meeting the Birds of a-morning on the golf course. On the question of “‘bird- ies,” he is discreetly quiet. Art Gallery to Have A Hindenburg Room Berlin, July 16 (A.

A leading industrialist capitalized this enthusiasm by passing a subscription list for a special Hindenburg room. The room is to perpetuate the memory of the president’s visit and is to contain paintings by leading Anhalt artists as — as a portrait of Hindenburg him- self.

KNIGHT .- - Main 7496 ENGINED CARS ‘THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JULY 17. 1927. eee ee Cee ee HODGE INTRODUCES NEW LINE OF FOURS IN 3 BODY MODELS Cars Are Declared Fastest of Type in America; 25 Miles to Gallon Claimed. SMALL WHEELS INCREASE SAFETY AT HIGH SPEEDS Motor Designed by Company Engineers Develops 40 Horsepower on Block. Several pages have turned recently in the history of Dodge Brothers, but what appears to be by all odds the most important is being revealed today. The company is bringing out what it claims is the fastest line of four-cylin- der cars in America, entirely new in every way. Dodge Brothers have been a major factor in the industry since their first car was built in 1914. The car be- came so popular that within an un- thinkably short time the company’s sales mounted to third in the industry. Less than six weeks ago Dodge Broth- ers brought out their new line of sixes. Dodge Brothers’ reputation has been built around the dependability and rugged construction of its cars. Speed has never been a factor in their sale. Nor will it be made the paramount is- sue in marketing the new cars, it is said, although it is obviously a feature upon which the public will focus much attention. Built with the distinctive beauty and completeness of appointment that characterizes custom-built cars, the new line is of the type that should sell readily on appearance as well as per- formance. The fact that the cars are capable of going 25 miles on a gallon of gasoline, at average touring speed, should also add greatly to their popu- larity. Initial production will embrace three body types, a four-door sedan, a cabrio- let roadster and a coupe. Only the A sedan is available for delivery now, but within a very short time the roadster and coupe will be in dealers’ hands. Auto Hugs Ground. The new car appears to be as large as the former four-cylinder Dodge. In- terior body dimensions are particular- ly impressive and the seating accommo- dations are more than ample for com- fort. Due to the smaller diameter of the wheels the cars fairly hug the ground, giving a greater safety factor at the high speeds which they are ca- pable of making. The top of the sedan stands 70% inches above the ground, whereas the former sedan measured 73 25-32 inches. Even with this reduction in height, there is more head room in the new sedan. The distance from the back of the front seat to the pedals and to the steering wheel, the two dimensions which are probably most important to drivers, are the same as in the former very roomy Dodge Brothers’ sedan. The seats are wide, soft and comfortable. The bodies are of unusually rugged construction, built of steel, staunchly reinforced to give great structural strength. The new and powerful “124” motor furnishes power for the new cars. This motor was developed by Dodge Brothers, engineers after years of experimentation and is considered the best and most advanced four-cylinder motor the com- pany ever built. On the brake block test it develops 40 horsepower, which is 1 horsepower for every 68 pounds’ weight of the new sedan. When it is consid- ered that most cars have from 97 to 135 pounds of weight for each horse- power the explanation of the great speed of the new cars is apparent. The light weight per horsepower shows up in acceleration.in traffic, in pulling power on the steepest hills and in a straightaway speed on the open high- ways. Shawl Vogue Again Is Revived in Paris Paris, July 16 (A.P.).—An “Evening of Shawls” at the Grand Palace, the government’s exposition building, has stimulated the vogue for them. Mannequins from dressmaking shops paraded with modern shawls, but also all forms and varieties were displayed. Many dated from the time of Napoleon, when the beautiful Mme. de Bourri- enne, wife of the great emperor’s pri- vate secretary, started the fashion by wearing a “cashmere.” The rage for shawls lasted several generations. Persons frequently had large collections, regarding them as ex- cellent investments. In 1860 the shawl “went out.” Until recently they were used for all sorts of decorations, even to wall coverings. TESTS ARE ANNOUNCED Depressing Beam When Road Is Wet Increases Intensity of Glare. EXPERIMENTS ARE CITED Results obtained from laboratory and road tests of headlighting on dry and wet road surfaces with various types of head-lamp beam, as reported at the summer meeting of the Society of Automotive Engineers by R. E. Carl- son and W. 8S. Hadaway, of the Edison Lamp Works of the General Electric Co., show that depressing the beam of a depressible-beam head-lamp, when an asphalt or concrete road surface is wet, greatly increases the apparent intensity of the beam above the road, evidently due to the reflection from the road surface, and that this intensity extends far above the horizontal height of the head-lamp, thereby defeating the object of depressing the beam. With a non-symmetrical beam, pro- duced by a two-filament lamp, disposed ahead from one filament, but can be shifted to the right by switching to the other filament, very little light is pro- jected into the region in which the eyes of an approaching driver would be located. This effect can be pro- duced by using an auxiliary driving light aimed to the right of the axis of the car. When two facing cars both used the upper beam of a depressible-beam head lamp, on a wet asphalt road, a target 3 freet from one car and 3 feet above the road was visible at a maximum distance of 67 feet. With both cars using the non-symmetrical beam aimed to the right, the target was visible at 159 feet, and when placed near the right-hand curb was visible at 313 feet. Conclusions deduced from the tests are that wet road surfaces change the light distribution materially, resulting in greater glare; more light intensity is required to reveal an object on a wet road due to interference with vision and change in light distribution; increas- ing the light intensity in a symmetrical system does not improve visibility; a nonsymmetrical system in which the high intensity portion of the beam is directed to the right of the car axis re- duces glare and allows better vision; use of two 2l-candlepower lamps does .not give sufficient light flux for all ee — er —s — — RESULTS IN HEADLIGHT (MORE COURTESY URGED so that the beam is directed straight | ee ie we 7 AMONG AUTO DRIVERS Ver Linden Predicts Fewer Accidents if Politeness Were General. TELLS OF WILL ROGERS By EDWARD VER LINDEN, President Peerless Motor Car Corp, I think that if every dfiver would practice just a little more “living room” courtesy there would be much fewer accidents due to carelessness and reck- lessness. It is a strange fact that while prac- tically every driver on the road today would show unfailing courtesy and def- erence to a stranger in his own home, these same drivers glare, mutter and even shout at passing drivers who have thoughtlessly vexed them. Many of the commotions of the road that result in accidents would be pre- vented if these discourteous drivers would simply be a little more thought- ful. A week or two ago Will Rogers com- mented that there were a lot of driv- ers who would race the Twentieth Cen- tury in order to cross the track and buy a frankfurter sandwich, which is a good example of foolish driving. We, at Peerless, and other manufac~- turers, too, are producing cars that give the driver practically an unlimited range of speed, with maximum miles per hour that are seldom safe to use on crowded highways. This hag the effect of giving much quicker accelera- tion, however, which, by making @ car more flexible, makes it safer, too. Low- er chassis construction, shorter wheel bases that hug the road on curves and rugged chassis make the cars of today safer than ever before. requirements; use of a widespread low intensity beam near the car, in com- bination with a relatively narrow con- trollable high-intensity driving beam has advantages for both dry and wet roads; no reason is known why a fixed- focus design should not be used witb a somewhat longer focal-length than at present, with suitable reflectorg or lenses for the low-intensity beam, and the use of auxillary driving lights with the beam directed to the right should be encouraged.

~.lUc -~V TO MARK MARRIAGE OF BUD oTILLMiAN Accordions and Violins Are to Furnish Music and Au Will Dance. EMPLOYES ARE INVITED, AS IS QUEBEC FASHION Young Couple Going Abroad; Will Live in New York While He Studies. New York, July 16 (A.P.).—Strains ef accordions and violins in the little French-Canadian town of LaTuque, on July 29, will proclaim to the world that romance still lives. For on that date the people of that pection of the northern Quebec timber tountry will celebrate in picturesque style the wedding of one of their daughters to the son of an old and wealthy New York family. ‘The bride will be Lena Viola Wilson, little blonde sister in a Scotch-Canadian family of eleven children. The bridegroom will be James A. Stillman, jr., whose father long was head of one of the world’s greatest banks. In little Grand Anse, a railway, 60 miles from where mneighborliness and democracy are the rule, the frormance budded and blossomed. To the lonely lodge, on the St. Maurice River, where the Stillmans found quiet and seclu- sion, came the daughter of a neighbor one day, seeking employment. John Wilson, Scotch lumberman, had died, and Lena set out to ald with the fam- ily finances. Girl Wins “Bud's” Heart, In the years that followed, the wood- land girl, who didn’t drink and smoke and did not know modern dance steps, but who could hike 25 miles, and fish and cook, won the heart of “Bud” Still- man. When the engagement was an- nounced last fall, Mrs, Stillman spoke in warm praise of her “little daughter of the woods,” and Mr. Stillman joined in hearty approbation. Since then, Lena Wilson has studied in New York as Mrs. Stillman’s guest. Mrs. Stillman has joined in the plans for the wedding, which will be held in the Anglican Church in the little wood- land metropolis of LaTuque. “We're going to have a real French- Canadian wedding,” she explained. “Of course, you know Lena isn’t French, but has always spoken French up there. So we're going to give them that kind of wedding. It will be lots of fun, "In one respect this will be' different. The real French-Canadian wedding lasts three days. ButI hope this one doesn't last longer than afternoon and evening. We'll start late, so it can’t be a long affair. Every One Will Dance, “All our old friends up there will come, including every ome who has ever worked for us. We love them all. “They'll damce to accordions and violins and sing old-fashioned songs, and it all will be lovely and pic- turesque.” The young couple will sail on the Olympic, August 1, for a honeymoon abroad. But on their return they plan to settle in a modest little apartment near the College of Physicians and Sur- geons of Columbia University. For “Bud” Stillman, just graduated from Princeton, plans to study there four years to become a physician. And his bride will cook and keep house. “I won't have to bother now about his taking cold,” remarked his mother. “Lena will I have to do all these things and I’m sure he will be in good hands. “They’re going to lead a simple life, Lena and Bud. I think they'll be two little subway birds yet.” Doctor Sees Health Affected by Jolts “A prominent physician, who is also and ardent motorist, is authority for the recently published statement that the vibration and high speed of auto- mobiles directly affect blood pressure,” says L. S. Jullien, local Gabriel dis- tributor. “The doctor’s experiments proved that irritation and fatigue following a long, uncomfortable ride actually caused blood pressure to rise 30 to 40 points above normal in many cases. “Repeated tests indicated that the greater the degree of riding comfort, the less marked was the physical reac- tion, all of which is fairly competent testimony that balloon tires, shock ab- sorbers and restful seat cushions make a worth-while contribution to mental and physical well-being.” German Town Unveils Tablet to Beethoven Berlin, July 16 (By A.

One said, in substance, that we were beholden. to science for all we know, and that folk medicine, home cures, family cures, tribal cures and all such ha@ contributed nothing. The other took issue with the science ad- vocate. The particular field they were fighting over was that of prevention, though the same kind of controversy has been known to prevail in the field of curative medicine. : Had the first doctor known a little more than he did, or had he read 4 small part of the literature, he would not have taken the position he took. ‘“Iad he read but one book, and that Frazer’s “Tne Golden Bough,” he would not have been so rash in his youthful ardor for science. Frazer says, “Magic is the child of error, yet it is the mother of freedom and truth.” The principal theme of “The Golden Bough” is that man in his search for religious truth travels a weary, age-old road which leads from selfish individ- ualism, through animalism and magic religion, to truth. It is equally true that in his search for medical truth he travels through magic taboos and re- ligious cults to science and truth. Frazer tells us of the various races that tabooed spittle. This taboo held in check the spread of consumption, pneumonia and other forms of con- tagion through the ages which pre- ceded those of more exact information, When microscopes came and bacteri- ology was developed, the memory of the old taboo pointed out the place in which the scientists should dig for nuggets of truth. Another set of taboos related to the man who had been on a tour of travel. Taboos prevented him from doing a lot of things which, had they been done, would at times have imported conta- gion into new places. Out of this ta- boo grew the system of quarantine which was used in ancient times, and out of that ancient system of quaran- tine grew the present isolation methods U0, TOURIST IN CANADA MUST REGISTER flo GAR Valuables Also Must Be Listed With Custom Authorities; Allowed 90 Days.

The new line of Essex Super-Six cars has met a nation-wide reception more favorable than that accorded any previous series in the factory’s history, according to reports from distributors and dealers of the Hudson plant. Acting on this information, the Hud- son organization has launched into the largest volume of manufacturing it has ever known, so that Walter Lam- bert, Hudson-Essex dealer-distributor, ~ ae es, wid eb ae a be os ae ae J NF wikis Sa. . : é \. ’ v ‘* : . A ooo ST Sse ~ — is now confident that motorists here may have prompt delivery on their orders. All this year the popularity of the Essex Super-Six has been so great that there simply were not eno cars to go around, but now it is hoped that this situation will be remedied. The orders which the Hudson or- ganization received for Essex cars give an interesting gauge on national pros- perity. Such important centers as Washington, New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and Detroit or- dered an average of twice as many Essex cars for immediate delivery as for this season a year ago; Minneapolis, Cleve- land, Kansas City, Atlanta and Salt Lake City asked two and one-half times; Denver and San Francisco, three times; Des Moines, three and one-half times, and Seattle, four times. Car Popular Everywhere. “As these figures from every section of the country show,” said Mr. Lam- bert, “this series of Essex Super-Six cars gives every indication of being the most popular and widely demanded six- cylinder cars ever built. “There is nothing surprising about this,” he continued, “for the cars pro- vide a most remarkable combination of, value and attractiveness. It is no one quality or characteristic which has, made Essex popular. It is rather its performance plus its appearance, plus its comfort and easy riding, plus its complete standard of finish and refine- ment. In all the qualities which the modern motorist requires, the Essex is‘ outstandingly a leader. “All this year Essex has scored suc- cess after success, but now with its many improvements there is every rea- son to look for the greatest triumph of all. Those who will want an Essex should in all. fairness let us know at once.” V FRANKLIN COMFORT- IS LAID TO SPRINGS Torque Tubes and Radius Rods Discarded, Braking . Thrust Softened. Pointing to the ability of the Frank- lin car to ride fast over rough stretches of road without transmitting the road shocks to passengers, Chief Engineer E. S. Marks, of the Franklin Automobile Co., claims the development of full elliptic springs in the Franklin chassis gives not only the softness so much de- sired on paved highways, but the depth to absorb severe bumps, ruts and in- equalities of varying magnitude. The total length of Franklin springs is 296 inches, or 29 inches longer on each side than the wheelbase of the car itself. By reason of scientific light- weight construction, as well as by the greater length and cushioning ability [EE The Mystery Motor No Gas No Radiator No Plugs i No Carbon Air Cooled Cheapest Power Yet One to Six Cylinders 2 to 60 H. P. Company Organized New Era Mfg. Co. Decatur, Ga. 1037 Atlanta Ave. Local Representative Lincoln 5882. — eens, of the full elliptic springs, the Franklin company is able to greatly decrease the poundage per inch of deflection ratio of its springs, an ideal for which the entire industry is striving. Full elliptic springs, used only in the Franklin at the present time, completely eliminate the necessity for spring shackles, which are notably noisy. Such springs are likewise essential to the well known Franklin “drive through the springs,” whereby torque tubes and ra- dius rods are discarded and the drive and braking thrust is softened by the / springs themselves. To facilitate this action, Franklin springs are canted on the axles in such manner that they not only compensate for the driving thrust but absorb diagonal road blows into which nearly all bumps are converted through the forward motion of the car. popularity to record-breaking heights— —Pontiac Six is announced today at new low prices on every body type. This surprising price reduction comes at a time when Pontiac Six Sales have been surpassing all previous records—and is made possible only by the economies of increasing production in the new $12,000,000 Pontiac Six Plant. This mammoth new factory was only recently completed. It is the newest and most modern motor car plant in the world. In facilities for efficient quantity produc- tion and precision manufacture, it repre- sents one of America’s industrial achieve- ments. Directly connected to it is the plant of the Fisher Body Corporation where Pontiac Six bodies are built completely by Fisher craftsmen. As a result, manufacturing costs on the Pontiac Six have been reduced and these savings are now passed on to the public. So now at a base price of only $745 Pon- tiac Six offers the following features which constitute definite assurance of lasting satisfaction and which are obtainable in no other low-priced six: 14th St. at Rhode Island Ave. oo VA Central Garage, La Plata, Md.

The new Hudson motor gives the snap and performance of the high compression type without sacrifice of flexibility and smoothness. Spark knock is positively prevented. Regular gasoline gives the performance sought, in other types, through the use of special and costly fuels. The cold motor starts with the same snap you get from other types in midsummer. You don’t have to wait for or nurse your motor while it warms up. Oil dilution is prevented. Greater power, speed and fuel economy are obtained. Every phase of performance is brilliantly better.

He has fought im more wars than any one-else in the world today. Pancho Villa posted a price on his head in 1912. He has as- sisted in various banana revolutions wm Nicaragua and Honduras. He was with the Princess Pats at Ypres. He has been wounded fourteen times. He is going to recite his exciting ex- periences. Read the first installment of his story today and you wont for anything miss reading the remaining installments. had just finished two furious years of free fighting in Nicaragua and Honduras and was beginning to con- sider myself something of a past master at tropical soldiering I found myself floating about New Orleans—with nothing to do and about as much money to do it with. I was just twenty-three, my favorite outdoor sport was 4 revolution, and I itched for excitement. It wasn’t long in appearing. Somehow it never was in those days. Enough thrilling adventure to last a lifetime, but which was packed into the following two years was ushered by my pal Sam Dreben whose sudden ap- pearance suddenly relieved the New Orleans tedium. Sam Dreben—the famous fighting Jew—was the most picturesque char- acter I ever knew. We had first met a couple of years before up in the Nicaragua hills where we both took a short course in the then virgin art of machine gun manipulation, and the friendship started back in 1910 lasted until his recent death in Los Angeles. When we met in New Orleans all Latin America was Ni with iz the early spring of 1912 when I tales of his bizarre \activities, his soldierly qualities, and fhis devil-may- eare disposition. Incidentally he was the last person you would pick as a soldier of fortune. Squat, thickly built with a monstrous burlesque show Yiddisher nose, and with a bay window bulging at his belt—he was more of & walking one-man vaudeville show than a debonair gentleman adventurer. But he could fight—and I don’t mean per- haps. We were both tickled at meeting again and without much excess con- versation both of: us felt it was about time something exciting was stirring. Sam told me that after I had gone on up into the interior of Honduras he had made straight for Mexico where he had undertaken a little private filibustering for the Madero forces. Sam announced that while he hadn’t seen any actual fighting, for a change, he had had some narrow escapes from being captured by the federal forces. Finally he had been double-crossed and betrayed by some of his Mexican prothers-in-arms, but in the last show- down, had calmly stuck them up for a few thousand dollars and had come back to the States. When I met him he was broke—and rarin’ to go. Within a few days we located-a junta , preparing to bring Castro back in power in Venezuela. They were spending con- siderable money and anneared to have . against him. plenty more. To put it mildly, Sam and I were open to a proposition to help them get guns and ammunition and take charge of the machine guns when they landed in South America. They had bought and stored in New Orleans 5,000 rifles and 10 machine guns and things looked rather good; pay was al- ways prompt and generous. We spent several months getting ready. After a-~while when we thought it was about time the party should Shove off and start South, and there didn’t seem to be any indication of activity in that direction, Sam and I began to chafe again and hanker for broad hot plains, or cool dim mountains. In either place we yearned to set up a couple of machine guns and spatter a clacking stream of bullets at natives swarming our way. At last when we were absolutely fed up with talking and waiting, and there didn’t seem to be any chance to get started for a few months more, we met some Mexicans who tipped us off that things were about to start booming in Mexico again. According to our informers, a lot of people were sore at Madero and were about to revolt Just ghen somebody threw a monkey wrench in the Castro revolution, which quit cold, so Sam and I headed off for El Paso, Tex., to look the Mexican situation over. As we got off the train at El Paso, there was a lot of excitement. Looking across the river we saw the rebel forces marching into Juarez, the border town just across the Rio Grande from El Paso. We hastened up town and found some kindred. spirits who supplied the latest dope—that the rebels under Gen. Salazar and Emiliano Campa had appeared in the hills out- side of Juarez and had occupied the town with little resistance. That afternoon Sam and I hastened over to Juarez, where we went into a nuddle with Salazar and Campa. Salazar was taciturn and let Campa do most of the palavering. The latter was a graduate of a medical school in St. Louis, had married an American woman, had two children, spoke English perfectly—and, as I found out later was the worst American hater in Mexico. Maybe his wife had something to do with it—I don’t know—but his anti-American fever nearly cost Sam and me our lives. Neither of the generals was very enthusiastic about our joining the forces, but when they heard we were machine gunners they warmed up some- what.

Salazar an- nounced that he didn’t entertain much faith in the average soldier of fortune, but if we could show him we could work the guns he would take us. Campa chimed in with the same notion, thus proving that, even if he hadn’t been born there, he had at least gone to school in Missouri. We both passed our machine gun tests, Sam with some difficulty, be- cause at the last moment when he was unloading his gun he had forgotten to press the button on the side of the Colt gun which releases the feed wheels and allows the belt to be withdrawn. Some sleight of hand business was necessary here, so I slid my hand casually over the barrel and pressed the button for- ward until the belt came out. I ex- plained that the belt must have heen caught. Evidently they believed me because we were informed then and there that we could join their army. Sam, by the-way, was a curly wolf with a machine gun in action but never seem- ed to care about learning anything of its mechanical features. When I took my test, to make things look more solid, I took the gun all apart and put it together again. This was the clincher, we were as welcome as could be. The two generals made us an offer of $500 a month with a bonus for every battle we took part in. We agreed, providing they would give us a bonus of $500 cash on the spot. This was forthcoming, so we were sitting pretty. Dreben and I spent the next ten days working on our guns and helping smug- gle, from the American side, some spe- cially cast balls for a trick cannon that Salazar selected as his pet pride. At one time it graced a park in El Paso, but when Madero came to the hills to try and capture Juarez, some time before it had been hauled to the river by a dele- gation of prominent citizens and given to the Mexicans. This one cannon con- stituted all the artillery the rebels had. Just before we got under way, Salazar tried to get Dreben and myself to take charge of this mysterious-gun. We po- litely refused because home-made can- nons were about the only tools of war we professed a complete ignorance of. At this.time we were given a gun crew for each of our machine guns and another native captain who was sup- posed to assist us in every way. Our man, known as Chino, was a cross be- tween an American, a Chinaman, and a negro and had either inherited or ac-. & xg 3 3 quired a nasty disposition. He had been in the federal army before the revolu- tion end resented being under tye ’ the trip to Chihuahua. Americans. He gave us trouble from the start with his insolence and arro- gance and had an ugly way of glower- ing at us while tapping the ‘butt of his pistol. One fine morning everything was ready and we started out on the Mexi- can Central Railroad bound for the City of Chihuahua. Gen. Pasqual Orozco was the governor of the state of Chihua- hua at the time and negotiations had been opened with him to head the revo- lution; while it was reported he was fav- orable to the cause of the rebels, it was not certain he wouldn’t resist us—hence No matter what happened we intended to start fighting at Chihuahua and battle our way south, from which ditection we knew the fed- erals were approaching along the way of the railroad. On the second day we reached Ter- rasas from where we wired Orozco and learned that he wanted to parley with Salazar as soon as possible. That night Sam and I put up at the Terrasas ranch house and when we awoke the next morning Sam began to look around the beautifully furnished bed room where he spied a small re- ligious statue on the wall. He got up, yanked it loose, observed that it con- tained a glistening red stone he thought was a good imitation of a ruby, and said he was going to send it back as a pres- ent to Chris Haggerty, an old friend of his with the Associated Press, at El Paso. Later that morning Sam hailed an automobile full of tourists bound for El Paso, gave them the statue and asked them to look up Haggerty and give it to him, There is an amusing aftermath to this incident. Many months later when Sam and I were back in El Paso, Dreben looked up Haggerty and asked him if he got the present. Chris said he did and pro- fusely thanked Sam. “Aw, that’s all right,”~said Sam, “I knew a Jew wouldn’t have any use for a thing like that, but I thought a good Harp like yourself would appreciate it.” “Tl say I did,“ replied Haggerty. “Tt was a swell present considering thet ruby that was in it.” “That what!” yelled Dreben. “Sure I mean that ruby that was in it—I hocked it for $750. That certainly was 4 swell present, Sam.” Dreben was on the verge of hysteria when I gently steered him away from Haggerty, who was all too willing to go into the delightful details of how he had had the curious red stone appraised and sold for a sum of money that Dreben never would have let slip through his hands if he had realized the red stone had been genuine. But to get back to Terrasas and the revolution—after spending one night at the ranch house we all piled into the trains again and in a little while pul'ed slowly into Chihuahua. We were warm- ly received there and Orozco became the head of the revolution which after that bore his name. After staying in the city for two weeks securing more equipment we got word that the federals were hurrying north to attack us. Under the personal command of Or- ozco we headed south and stopped for a while at Santa Rosalia—just long enough to formally open the war with an engagement against some federal soldiers parking in an adobe ranch house. They had a strong position so Salazar ordered us to bring up the ma- chine guns and the trick cannon which was lugged all the way from Juarez. We had only fired a few rounds from the machine guns when our colleagues a few feet away set off the cannon. It was its first and last shot. With a roar that must have been heard in Mexico City the thing burst apart, showering remnants of old iron all over the place. Luckily none of us were hit—but the gun served its purpose. In a few sec- onds the federals streamed from the ranch house surrendering—explaining they could not hope to hold out against such heavy artillery. They immediately signed up with our army. Our next stop was at Jiminez which we entered as peacefully as a poor fam- ily getting into the zoo on free day. We stalled around for a day anda night and then went south again to Rellano where we detrained. Rellano is in the foot- hills of the mountain range bordering the desert—the railroad passes through a deep cut here. You don’t hear much about Rellano in war talk—but it was to be the scene of the bloodiest and most amazing battle I ever saw. As we were taking up our positions in the hills preparing to meet the enemy whom we now knew was rapidly advanc- ing, Chino, the triple breed attached to us, took exception to our positions for the machine guns, and began to yell that we ought to set them up further up in the hills. Sam and I intended to shoot from a point about twenty feet above the floor of the desert so we could get a flatter field of fire and cover more danger space. Chino grew infuriated and began to get violent. When he thought I wasn’t looking he pulled his pistol and would have shot Sam if I hadn’t yanked mine out at the same moment and shot Chino in the arm. nee . 2 ans weet oo ox SPENT aay Saar er eeae AS 2 yy Se iy 3 BRR S- The author going into action with a Colt machine gun at Santa Rosalia, Mexico, 1912, e 3 SE ety et te pte pe > ladles eR ae atR Lo As Told by TRACY RICHARDSON To DOUGLAS DE YOUNGE SILVER SES STP ime i SAR RE ere ME pa ay emailer oar ‘ \ \ Un * 4 . s >» - - Ms = PR. o. ~ “Sale Faget ee ee toutes * * at. she oak beter, Seite ‘il * rr r hes Rrtat te # : 4 RE Re a ee? 5, f a OD "ATP TERMS eer er The trouble maker then grabbed some of our crew and retired further up in the hills. Sam and I stayed where we were but were. harassed with the idea that when the firing started Chino, whose wound was slight, might forget to elevate his fire, and accidentlly on purpose attempt to assassinate us. A few minutes later though, one of the camp followers—Bella de la Torra by name and equal to most of the men when it came to a battle—approached and told us not to worry, that she was going to take up a position near Chino with a hundred men and see that he confined his firing to the enemy. + We scattered our troops, some 2,000 in all, along the base of the hills and on the banks of an old irrigation canal. The distribution of the men was given over to Dreben and me—Sam having charge of all the men on the left of the railroad and myself commanding the right side. While tensely waiting the first appearance of the Federals we kept the men busy digging trenches and erecting barricades of stones as well as preparing positions that could be strategically defended. That afternoon and for a good part of the night we all worked fortifying our positions. All the next day we occupied ourselves the same way, this time a little less laboriously as we all were worked to a fearful pitch of excite- ment and wanted to fight, not just get ready to. Early the second night some of our scouts came rushing in with news that the federals had been sighted, three train loads of them, only a few miles away, and that they had already unloaded their artillery, counting on an advance in the morning. When our noble army, the gallant and otherwise, got wind of the news there was considerable fluttering in the ranks. The boys knew that the federals probably outnumbered them and had more machine guns than our two. It stood to reason that whatever artillery they had must outnumber ours —since the fortunate accident back at Santa Rosalia. Right at this moment though, we devised a scheme which gave us the jump on the enemy and provided just the right bolster for our own troops’ faltering spirit. Somebody, I am in- clined to think it was the bizarre Homer Scott, a roving photographer traveling with us, hatched the idea of unhooking one of our own locomotives, packing dynamite all over the cowcatcher and letting her tear down the track toward the first advancing enemy troop train. It was no time for an extended palaver so Sam and I executed the idea by load- ing 800 pounds of dynamite where sug- gested, planting fulminating caps all through the explosive and waiting until our prey should appear. Pretty soon we could see the first troop train in the distance. I waited until it was well out of rifle shot and then, yanking the engine’s throttle wide open, jumped out of the cab. As I sprawled in a sandbank by the track I looked up and saw our engine of destruction racing wild for the federals. Very few of our own forces knew what was up but the news soon spread like wildfire so the whole army stood on its toes to see the result. It wasn’t long in coming. After perhaps two minutes the runa- way engine smashed head-on into the leading federal troop train. We saw both engines crumple, as well as a couple of cars. Next we saw thelr engine sag, buckle, and rear as a_ tremendous, brownish white geyser of mingled de- bris, steam, arms and legs shot up at least 50 feet in the air. Within a few seconds the terrific roar of the explo- sion snapped back to us. Wild cheers broke from the revolu- tionists, so that after that blowing off of the lid of battle nothing could have stopped them. Through our glasses we could see there was wild confusion on the remaining cars of the injured train as well as on the two trains behind the wrecked one. Troops could be seen pour- ing off all three, and deploying along the track. They were hastily lined up and ordered to advance. Just then the artillery, which had detrained earlier, opened up on our positions, so we were forced to take cover from the shrapnel, most of which, however, was going high. The federal artillery advanced and not seeing our men who were hidden by the irrigation canal, got too far forward and were all captured in one wild rush. By this time the federal infantry were within rifle range so they opened up on our positions. Dreben and I had dandy locations from which we began to cut loose with a startling effective cross fire that crumbled up the first wave ad- vancing on our side of the line. In spite of the collapse of the first wave, those poor federal soldiers were marched right smack up against us in close formation so that all we had to do was sWing our guns and cut them down like tenpins. On and on they came, wave after wave, to utterly col- lapse. as soon as our bullets started to sweep their path. If it hadn’t been real war, and we hadn’t known that if we CONTINUED ON PAGE 2, COLUMN & “

You feel that his face does not have that interplay of eyes and mouth and the planes of the cheeks to which you are accustomed. The reason is that Ted—that is the name that I gave him—was hit in the face and he had his face reconstructed. “He was docile and fine and sweet, but it was hard for him to talk and very difficult for him to concentrate, but I made him understand at last that I wanted to take him to America. He had told me that, so far as he could ‘feel,’ America was his home. But, you see, he did not remember anything before the time when he woke up in the hospital and found that his face was sore. “He objected to leaving, and for several days I could not make him tell me why, but finally he did.

This Ted was a good boy, honest and sincere and good natured and honorable; not the wonderful lad that my client thought he was, I was sure, Still a thoroughly good man. I saw that her love and attachment and faith had transferred themselves to this stranger. Possibly there was some faint resemblance, or she might imagine that there was. So I gave her a good report on the boy and she was pleased. Her eyes lifted and she smiled. One of the most wonderful of women’s smiles. I was sure that all her life she had been greatly beloved. “This is the writing of Adrian,’ she said, but it was an afterthought. ‘He is very quiet, of course, poor boy, but he has a fine mind.” I looked at the extreme individuality of the writing, the ethereally light pressure, the breaks between the letters of words, which tell so much of intuition and refinement and should want to sell the place some day.” I looked at the writing of Adrian again and wondered at how little we know of the real person who lives within us. And then we talked a little of how it was best for her to take some young life into her affections and I said that I was sure, from his handwriting, that Ted would make a good administrator of all the big estate that she would leave him and that he would be a good legal and business advisor for her as she grew older, and she glowed more and more with that subdued happiness which only those know who have lost the power to be gayly happy. She was going when she turned back and laid a letter, yellow with age, before me. “That was written when he was a very young lad,” she said. ‘‘When he was in the war he used a typewriter to write me for he sent me long accounts of everything and everybody. Such wonderful letters. He could make a story out of a fine morning and an old French woman washing clothes by her kitchen door. I have had those let- ters printed and have given the volume to a great many, who say that they are beau- tiful.’”’ I looked at the letter so long that she was impressed and asked me what I saw in it.

As it was, they lost all of their artillery, all their machine guns, hundreds of rifles, much ammunition and about three-quarters of their men before they decided to call it a day and retreat. I can remember it just as though it might have happened yesterday. Out there just above the desert at Rellano, Sam and I rested a few minutes to cool the guns and sosh water on our heads to relieve the baking from a beating sun. The acrid air laden with smoke, desert dust and the reek of blood was choking. While we sagged down for a rest, our own cavalry came lumbering down out of the hills and made the fed- erals’ retreat a shamble. They hacked, slashed and harassed the tottering enemy all the way back to the two remaining troop trains where ‘the federals pulled aboard as best they could and started off toward Torreon. Then our infantry made a trip to look over the scene of the collision. On the way we counted 1,200 enemy dead on our side.of the tracks where the fight- ing was toughest, but never could learn just how many had been killed during the battle because hundreds of bodies had been heaved down deserted mine shafts along the way. Our side only lost twenty killed and had about a hun- dred wounded. Back where the wreck had really started the tide of battle our way, we found that the federal engine had been pushing two fiat cars ahead. These were ,of steel and had been armored by the placing of crossties and sandbags along the sides and on the top. The force of the explosion had killed all the troops on these two cars as well as in the car right behind the engine. The first two flat cars and a couple of cars behind the engine had been banged into twisted pieces of steel piled in a pa- theticaily mangled heap. Strangely enough there was very little damage done to the track itself, the full impact of the explosion seemed to have been directed into the troop train. According to prisoners, our stunt had been devastatingly destruc- tive to the morale of the federals and had turned the battle tide before the fighting really began. It may have been crude, it may not have been according to Hoyle, but it certainly saved our necks that day. My gun had functioned perfectly all through the fight, but Dreben’s develop- ed a defect that could only be remedied in a machine shop. We had captured half a dozen Hotchkiss guns and sev- eral valuable pieces of artillery so the morale of our men was hoisted to ca- rousing pitch. The federal commander. Gen. Salas, as we learned much later, was so discouraged over his defeat that he committed suicide on the way back to Torreon. We had captured several Hotchkiss machine guns and I had a yen to use one to see if I liked it better than a Colt. I remembered that back in the Honduras days I had received a course of instruction on one when Guy Molony was chief of the artillery school, so I looked one of our war prizes over to see if I had forgotten how to operate it. i found I hadn’t so turned my faithful Colt over to the disgruntled Chino while I grabbed off a nice new Hotchkiss for myself. Our whole army retired back to Jiminez by: rail where we soon learned that Tracey Aubert, commanding another wing of the federal army was advancing toward the town. We at once started out to meet his forces and “came up With the vanguard at a ranch . house where they had:taken up posi- tions behind the adobe walls of a house and the corral behind the irrigation ditches.

TT ee O saga aE ST Dras Skirts for Evening Wear Are Slightly Longer in Back, Mme. Boulanger Says—Less Trimming Than Ever Before Used on Costumes for Afternoon Wear By SYLVESTRE DORIAN. ' Director of the Paris Fashion Board. a Members of the Paris Fashion Board are Agnes, Boulanger, Chantal, Cheruit, Doeuillet, Doucet, Drecoll, Jenny, Lanvin, Lelong, Patou, Martial et Armand, Premet, Redfern, Martha Regnier, Jane Regny, Worth and Molyneux. Special Cable Dispatch.) Deauville, July 16. AE fashionable world of Europe is still ik holding forth at Deauville and Mme. Charlotte, creator of the Premet models, is here studying the style tendencies, which will tell her what smart women want next. She prophesies many severely plain gowns and hats for the coming season, saying that their distinction will be revealed in the de- tails, where a masterly touch is sure to prevail: The skirts will be more trimmed and varied, and the strictly straight line will be less in evidence. More fullness, less regularity and more decoration will charac- terize the skirts of many winter gowns. ‘“‘Manderine,”’ which is the French word for ‘‘tangerine,’’ is a reddish orange color (more red than orange), which Mme. Char- lotte is going to use in abundance. In velvet this color is especially warm and beautiful, and she is having hundreds of yards of it embroidered with simple cross-stitches about a square inch apart all over the material in gold metal thread. This will be the gown’s only trimming when completed, or almost its only trimming, for as Mme, Charlotte has observed, “When the material is trimmed, there is no need to trim the gown, as the material has already trimmed it.’’ These cross-stitches will be seen on other velvets in Premet’s new collection. Mme. Charlotte showed me pieces of velvet, white, black, green and blue, upon which this work had been made. he popularity of gold for winter will be enormous, and my next week’s cable will forecast the many uses which will be made of it in the winter fashions, in gowns, coats and accessories. Accessories, by the way, will receive more attention this season than ever before, due to the slight changes of line, which force women who insist upon something absolutely new to achieve their new effects through the details which supplement the gown. Dark Gray Featured. Dark gray for day-time wear will be featured in the new Premet collection, as will many fancy velvets. Dark things will not have much place, for “lots of color’ is Mme. Charlotte’s keynote for the autumn creations. “In summer,” she says, “nature gives us plenty of color, but in the winter she does not and that is the time when I propose to make my gowns most colorful and cheery. There will be nothing sad and mournful in my new collection—of that you may be sure.” Embroidery for evening is being entirely overlook- ed by this couturier, who promises Many new trim- mings to replace those which haye been used for so many years. Upon the zood old pleat and tuck, however, Mme. Charlotte still smiles approvingly, and of tucks and pleats she will have many, with nervures galore. Crepe satin, crepe marocain and all the woolens of the kasha family have been. pur- chased by nearly all of the couturiers. (Copyright, 1927, Cosmos Newspaper Syndicate, Inc.) ‘ By MADAME LOUISE BOULANGER. Paris, July 16. HE mode is now passing through one of é i its most interesting phases. After-sev- eral seasons, during which only slight changes have been made in the general styles, many women are said to be breathlessly ex- pecting something sensational as the crea- tion of the autumn model gets better under way each day. It may be an effective method of attracting attention to oneself—this way of leading people to think you’re going to do something marvelous—but it is not the means I shall employ, and at the very out- set, before telling you what I am now cre- ating, I shi) assure you I have no sensa- tional plans and that my collection for the coming season will not differ in any remark- able way from my last season’s collection. It takes several seasons sometimes to. de- velop an idea, and my next collection will contain better expressions of ideas which, perhaps, were not completely expressed in their first presentation, just as a theatrical performance is not perfectly rendered after the first rehearsal. The instruments which man has used to make music, from the stone gong pounded by the primitive savage to the delicate violin of Stradivarius, are described in a recent publication of the Smithsonian Institution. This is the Handbook of the Collection of Musical Instruments in the United States National Museum, by Miss Frances Densmore, published as Bulletin 136. Varied and highly developed as are our musical instruments of the present day, they can all be reduced to four simple classifica- tions, dependent upon the manner in which sound is produced. These include solid, sonorous instruments, such as gongs, bells and rattles; wind instruments, such as flutes, bagpipes and horns; vibrating mem- branes, including drums, tambourines and throat horns; and stringed instruments, such as the guitar and piano. Most primitive races have made use of all of these methods of sound emission. The extent to which man has leaned upon instruments to express his emotions in all phases of existence is illustrated by the bell. Of this instrument, Miss Densmore says: “More intimately than any other instrument the bell is associated with the joys and sorrows Of mankind. It has rung for wed: dings and funerals, given alarm of danger, and, in scenes of peace, béen heard as the cattle bell. The jester’s cap was trimmed with bells, and in the ancient synagogue the high priest’s robe was edged with golden bells. In Egypt the feast of Osiris was announced by the ringing of bells and throughout the Christian world the bell is rung as a call to worship. The Roman Catholic church uses it in the solemn service of the mass. Bells are used in the modern orchestra, and for this purpose they are tuvtlar in shape, several being hung on a frame. “Bells were used in ancient Greece, Rome, and Persia, while China and Japan have bells of great antiquity. In ancient times the Chinese used a bell for the same purpose that we use a tuning fork; a bell also served as a measure of weight in business transac- tions, a special hell being kept in the temple asa standard. Bronze bells have been found in Assyria, and a smal! bell was found in a mrummy case in Egypt.” ‘ Only less varied than the uses to which be has put them, have been the materials which man has used to make his instruments. For example, from Africa came little bells made of nut shells and carved wood: in Siam bamboo bells were hung around the necks of elephants when they were turned into the jungle to graze at night; the Hopi Indians made bells of the horns of mountain sheep and the Zuni made bells of pottery. Of:the metals, silver, gold, brass, copper, iron and bronze have been most commonly used for the manufacture of bells. According to Miss Densmore, probably no instrument has any wider distribution than the musical bow, which. is the. simplest stringed instrument. Tradition says that the twang of the archer’s bow suggested its use as a musical instrument. The rattle appears to be the only musical instrument of uncivilized people which has no counterpart in the music of civilization. It remains the instrument of primitive man. More than any other, it is associated with the working of magic, and among the Amer- ican Indians it is often used in the treatment of the sick. The author quotes Dr. Swanton, of the Smithsonian Bureau of American Ethnology, to the effect that ‘“‘the rattle was generally regarded as a sacred article, not to be brought forth on ordinary occasions, but confined to rituals, religious feasts, shaman- astic performances, &c. This character 1s emphasized in the sign language of the plains, where the sign for rattle is the basis of all signs indicating that which is sacred.”’ The uses of metal gongs are varied and interesting. Miss Densmore says of this in- strument: ‘“‘A Chinese gong was carried by servants before a Mandarin in his sedan to give notice of his approach, a certain number of strokes at intervals indicating his rank; a gong: was also carried in processions and beaten to drive away evil. spirits. During eclipses it was beaten to frighten the heaven- ly dog as he was about to devour the moon. In. Japan ‘a kind of gong was suspended before idols and struck by worshipers to arouse the attention of the god.’ ”’ The collection -which this handbook de- scribes began to be gathered b e the establishment of the Smithsonian Sahiad in 1846. Jt includes several thousand speci- mens coming from every section of the world. Rare and valuable instruments have been received as gifts from the King of Siam, Rajah Tagore of India, and other foreign countries, : Morning dress of beige woolen.

For the evening, the skirts are equally short in my last creations, but with a little more length in the back than before, thanks to many illusory pleating effects and cuts, which give a lengthened impression to one of the sides. The waistline and bust remain sharply disengaged, giving a supple and young sil- houette. Sometimes the back of the skirt is adorned with big pleats. For the afternoon I use less trimming than ever, and the smart women of Paris are inclined much less each season toward much-trimmed garments for daytime wear. In the evening there are'no limits, provided the decoration of the gown bears proportion to the surroundings, but this display is re- served for the night, while by day more re- straint prevails where trimming is con- cerned. For the smart :afternoon gowns, trimming effects are achieved by. the mix- ture of materials and their arrangement. The combination of a figured material with the same material, unfigured and plain, is to be appreciated. And I heartily admire the mixing of two shades of. the same color, which has all the advantages of trimming and a refinement and “chic” which I should find it impossible to overpraise. Many en- sembles for the afternoon still are worn, and the ensemble will be present throughout the winter, losing none of its popularity or pres- tige. The short little coats, made especially for the dresses with which they are worn, have endeared themselves to women of good taste to a degree which indicates lasting ap- preciation. Prints are very good, and I am using them abundantly in dresses for Paris- ian women, in crepe de chine, and maro- cains printed in checkered designs. Light shades prevail here, .

My lines have not changed greatly. The back is still slightly bloused, the waists are less trimmed. Whenever possible, I do not trim them at all. Embroideries have been abandoned, and whenever they are used (which is very rare and usually at the ex- press desire ‘of an individual) they are ex- tremely light and fine. The coats are wider at the bottom, giving an impression of being more enveloped when they are closed. The preferred colors for afternoon are blue and green. There are many shades of both, of course, and practically all of these are seen, according to the taste and type of the wearer. For the evening, light and soft shades are preferred. | The unadorned waist is another of many devices for giving a youthful, slim line, Trim- ming can be distributed in many illusory ways helow the waistline but this is more difficult to do above it. Every bit of trimming on the waist is apt to imply more weight under- neath than would be compatible with the ex- cessive slimness which nowadays is the goal of every woman’s desire. ; Velvets will be extensively worn. this winter. Black, blue, orange, green and pink will be good colors, and white and yellow will have a significant place, too. Many Pleated Effects. In my winter collection many pleated ef- fects will be used and the tuck will also be in evidence. The type of skirt which has always been associated with my name will continue to be presented. In all of the collections which represent the taste and personality of one person there are distinguishing characteristics which make it possible for an accustomed eye to quickly verify a gown as a ‘‘Boulanger,’’ a “Jenny,” a “Premet,” ete. The creations Ensemble afternoon “tailleur” of printed crepe marocain. which emanate from these houses are not subject to sudden sensationg) change, as are products of an establishment where three, four or five (maybe more) go their separate ways, creating different types of garments. The logical foundation for distinguished trimming on a gown is the skirt, especially of evening gowns. Whenever you have seen an evening gown that impresses you as being truly grand and sumptuous with real distinc- tion, I believe you will recall the trimming was on the skirt. This gives perfect balance, with enough undecorated space between the trimming and the face to place both of them in a sort of relief instead of trimming the waist and placing it and the face in touch with each other and denying each its proper, proportionate values.

There is no charge for this unusual and valuable advice in meeting personal problems of dress; but, to pay the ftive-cent postage for the ceply from Paris and the cost of writing the letter, it is mecessary that a dime be enclosed with the inquiry, together with an addiessed envelope for the reply, to which the French stamp will be attached in Paris. About three weeks will be required for the reply to reach the reader. The inquiry should be addressed as follows: Director of the Paris Fashion Service, 31, 3oulevard Berthier, Paris XVII, SUPER-THR! TO DE 4 » FY GRAVITY Forty-three years ago L. A. Thompson, a pioneer in the creation of amusement park thrillers, built the first scenic railway at Coney Island. It operated small motorized cars, by means of a third rail, over a loop system, which the inventor called a “switch back.’’ It covered a straightaway of slight dips and inclines, then reversed, and ended at its starting point. It often had tunnels, forests, landscapes and scenes intended to horrify riders. From this it got its name ‘“‘scenic.”’ The cars rarely traveled faster than ten miles an hour, and little attempt was made to thrill passengers with sharp dips. This summer, at Woodcliff Pleasure Park, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., there was opened a new coaster railway which drops its trains down a dip of 132 feet, and at the bottom they are traveling 70 miles an hour. At Coney Island the “‘Cyclone Racer,’’ new this season, reaches a speed of better than a mile a minute. The inception, construction and operation of amusement devices designed to appease the human craving for thrills has become an important industry, in which any successful device involves not only a thorough understanding of crowd psychology, but engineering and inventive skill of high order. But even the latest of breathless ‘‘rides’”’ will not satisfy the public long, writes Elwell Crissey in the August Popular. Science Monthly. Already the giant ‘“‘Mile Sky Chaser,’’ built at Coney Island by Arthur Jarvis in 1924, has ceased to be a sensation. It is not easy to thrill people who often travel at bet- ter than 60 miles an hour in their own auto- mobile! And the problem of thrilling the public of the future has the amusement park engineers stumped. They admit it. If the last 40 years have speeded people from 10 miles an hour to 70, they say, what will the next 40 years have to do to keep pace? “We've gone about as far as we can in get- ting thrills out of gravity coasters,” said Ver- non Keenan, chief engineer of Harry C. Baker, Inc., of New York City, a large builder of amusement devices. ‘‘To hold our patrons we'll have to do the impossible,” he added. And so Keenan and others are planning to attempt the “impossible.” They believe they may achieve it in future coasters by contra- dicting the law of gravity—running upside down at times, and “leaping the gap,” that is, jumping through space from one track to another. This suggests that the Coney Island ‘loop-the-loop,”’ probably the greatest thriller of all, may be revived in a new form. This device was abandohed in 1915 because of s5ev- eral serious accidents. “People nowadays like to wave to their friends and show off,’’ Keenan said. ‘‘They want to believe the rides are dangerous. If they think they’re in peril every moment they call the rides ‘grand,.’’ and come back for more. Our trick is to get the kick without the danger.’”’ = egre v 4 Lo r ly ’ Z ’ ", E WELCOME GUEST A pleasant visit depends as much on the guest as on the hostess, according to Louise Nicoll Webster, writing in the July issue of McCall's. She reverses most of the advice on entertaining given to the hostess by applying it to the guest and Says: “By entertaining I do not mean parlor tricks. Heaven defend us from the guest who ‘obliges’ after dinner with a few little song hits or who pops conundrums at you as you walk about the garden. “The relation of guest and host is delicate enough at best. Such a little thing, like tne want of an extra blanket on the spare room bed, or a forgotten trunk key, can throw it out of balance. ° “But the supreme test of successful hostess- ship depends, I believe, on the management of the morning bath hour. Given one bath- room, a family of five, one guest and an 8:30 breakfast and you have a problem that calls for the offices of an efficiency expert. “Who, having experienced it, can forget the stealthy advance down the hall, the timid trying of the knob of the bathroom door, the retreat—on tip-toes, the agonizing wait just within the guest room door with an ear to the crack as savages are supposed to lay theirs to the ground for the footsteps that shall proclaim that the tub is now free! And then the mad dash to secure it in advance of any other member of the houselhoia. “One hostess I know has the happy ex- pedient of tapping at her guest’s door with the welcome announcement ‘The bath is free,’ having first removed therefrom the cheap towels that mark the ablutions of the mas- culine members of the family.” TESTS A TIPPLER'S BREATH. A drinking man doesn’t stand a chance these days. Now a device has been invented by W. D. McNally, coroner’s chemist of Chica- go, Ill., that is said to tell infallibly whether a person has taken a single drink. When he breathes through a glass tube into an ar- rangement of bottles, specially prepared chemicals change color if there is the faintest trace of alcohol. By this means, the inventor suggests in Popular Science Monthly, police might test auto drivers suspected of drunken driving, or wives might test their errant hus- bands before admitting them late in the evening.

In the mean- time, the College of Science of the Imperial University of Tokyo has been making experiments, and its most recent report contains the following surprisizsg information: “Adult bullfrogs received in April laid eggs in July, and the tadpoles hatched from them transformed into frogs in November. At the time of the transfor- mation the tadpoles were 7 inches long.’’ Which means that the tadpoles grew ex- traordinarily fast, and that they changéd into frogs in five months, whéréas in this country they remain tadpolés for 23 months before making the transformation. The rea- son why is a first-class biologieal puzzle. The Japanese in recent centuries have de- veloped pond culture in a remarkable way, raising snapping turtles, fancy varieties of goldfish, and so forth. They may be ex- pected to obtain wonderful results in the breeding of bullfrogs oncé théy get into ac- tion, When hunters in the Missouri swamps or hired hands on Louisiana farms go out at night to catch the bullfrog, they take hand nets and torches, or acetylene lamps.

Most suitable for a frog farm is an enclosed patch of swamp or large shallow pond, free from ganie fish, snakes and turtlés, which not only consumé the available food supply but eat the eggs, tadpoles and young frogs. The animal life on which frogs subsist thrives best in shallow water. A depth of from a foot to 18 inches is enough in the southern half of the United States; farther north it should be some- what greater, in order that the water may not freeze to the bottom. The bottom should be muddy. Bullfrogs usually hide in the daytime, com- ing out at night to seek their prey. In the summer they squat at the water’s edge, wait- ing to jump at any moving creature that in- vites, their appetite: and swallowing their vic- tim whole.

And you love a cause—or a woman—you strengthen your bonds to them and their bonds to you by taking your good sword, or pistol, in hand and doing manly battle for them.”’ These are the words of a distinguished yisitor to America, the Honorable Pal Sandor, one of the foremost citizens of Hungary, mem- ber of the Hungarian Parliament, Governor of the Stock Exchange in Budapest, sociolo- gist and writer. Mr. Sandor is famed more for the duels he has fought than for his many notable achieve- ments in politics, finance and letters, for gince he started upon his public career, 47 years ago, he has fought 104 duels. “Those IT have counted,” he says modestly, adding: “Of course, besides these, there were little skirmishes, flurries and foibles which I did not count. For, really, they hardly mattered.” Now when a gentleman, in the fullness of his ripe 67 years, boldly comes out in favor of dueling and asserts that it is a degenerate and effeminate age which is now forbidding dueling everywhere, it really should be a sign for all good men and true to sit down and give the matter due thought. And, if Mr. Sandor could have his way, he would make dueling a common practice among gentle men all over the world, for the settling of intellectual disputes and troubled affairs of the heart as well. “You in these United States, gentlemen in England, even gentlemen in France and Ger- many regard the duel as a brutal thing, a resort of bullies, a mere violence which does not settle anything except who is the best man with the sword, pistol, or revolver,’’ says the veteran of the field of honor. ‘Bah— I smile at that idea. I smile at it in pity. For, ladies of duel- ing has taught me that the duel is the prac- tice of sincere and earnest men. And that to prohibit dueling, as has recent legislation in my own country, is to take a step toward effeminacy and what your great Theodore Roosevelt used to call ‘mollycoddling.’ ” So, with glistening eyes, does this 67-year- old gentleman advocate the historic duel. Then, if his questioner presses him, he will dip into his own romantic past and bring out a chapter or two which he recalls with fond reminiscence. He’ll begin something like this: “For forty-seven years, now, I have been @ueting whenever a good or sacred cause F a thing is worth while at all, b sf | : and gentlemen, 47 years THE WASHINGTON POST: al of the Duel to Settle Disputes SUNDAY, JULY “17, 1927. Pal Sandor, Hungarian Statesman Who Has Fought More Than 100 Duels, Tells Why He Not Be Abolished arose to convince me I should take the field of honor. Some of my duels have been tragic affairs—of these I do not speak. Some of them I have entered laughing, with good friends who were better friends when the argument was settled with our swords. One or two I have fought with arrant cowards. But the most amusing duel of-all had its be- ginning at The Blue Cat, which was a popu- lar vaudeville house in Budapest. “Like all men worthy the name, I admire a beautiful woman wherever I see one. But, I hasten to say, my admiration for a lady never goes beyond proper respect. I have oe €: tee PICLENS spe always felt that aman is a dull- ard if can not appreciate a curl on a fair feminine neck, a dimple in a soft cheek. It hap- pened about ten years ago that I sat in a front seat at The Blue Cat, admiring re- spectfully — oh, very respectfully —a beautiful blonde lady who sat under the glowering glance of her elderly husband. Per- haps I looked at her more than at the vaudeville. I’m not so sure, But at any rate, in the intermis- sion, as I walked up and down nursing my pipe in the foyer, up stalked this eldetly gentle- man, husband of the fair lady, and he spoke stern words. “You have in- sulted my wife, sir. You have stared at her all evening, sir. I allow no man to look at her like ee oe that. Sir, I de- jg mand an apol- ogy.”’ Now, Mr. San- dor is a gentle- man. Besides, he has a wife of his own. And he had meant the lady no harm, nor disrespect. Therefore, he told the husband so. with soft, placating An interesting old drawing of the historic duel between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Buwrr, in which Hamilton fired into the air and was Passed Howard Pyle. words. And all would have been well had not that husband been a boasting braggart of a fellow. Immediately upon the great duelist’s apology, the husband told all over Budapest how he had made ‘“‘even the fight- | LAST “BAD LANDS” TAMED | ing Sandor knuckle down.” These words eventually reached Sandor himself. He cast his eye over his study. He looked at his assortment of swords, long and Edward Dunklin, an itinerant Baptist min- gster, after a six-year battle, has succeeded in taming the last of the American “bad lands,’”’ the Everglades of Florida. Courage was the only equipment Dunklin had when, like the ‘‘fighting parson” in West- ern frontier days, he waded through snake and alligator infested swamps intent upon converting .a district controlled by despera- does fully as dangerous as the Jesse James crowd in its heyday, despite the fact it was ‘put a short ride from the haunts of fashion and wealth in the booming State. Not only did the missionary win the con- fidence of the desperadoes, the American sMagazine says, in recounting his work, but he won over the powerful woman leader, known as the “‘Queen of the Everglades,” to his missionary work, Dunklin’s first appearance ‘in the district short; poniards lithe and lean, at his deadly pistols, his revolvers which had done execu- tion. Was he, the fighting Sandor, afraid of that pompous person? No, indeed! So, Mr. Sandor looked up the blonde lady’s spouse and told him he’d heard what he was saying. Sandor demanded an apology. The blonde lady’s husband emphatically refused to give it. “Then there is only one resort left,” said Sandor. They named their seconds, and it was agreed the duel would-be with short swords, in a park just outside Budapest, looking to- wards the romantic Hungarian mountains. “Just the day before the duel was to be fought,’’ Mr. Sandor confides, ‘‘a very lovely lady called upon me at my office in the Stock Exchange: In a moment, as she raised her was greeted with a shower of stones and re- fusals of food or shelter. At his first meet- ing, when bullets were dropped into the col- lection box as a threat and warning to get out, he defied the crowd, declaring that he could only die once and was not afraid to do so. Months later the first sign of friendliness to- ward him was a collection which contained 2 ears of corn, 2 pawpaws, 3 pump- kins, 6 bananas and 24 limes. The confi- dence progressed until three of the worst des- peradoes surreptitiously gave him a dollar and three more a.quarter each, Now, at the completion of six years of work, the outlaws have become real friends of Dunklin and have built him a little house on Lake Okeechobee,. where tis meetings flourish. Moreover, the country has become as safe as any other part of the State and good settlers are flocking in to cultivate the rich muck lands.

So I have come to beg of you the very great favor. Black his eyes! Hurt him as he has hurt me! Let him know he deals with a man and not with the weak woman he has married. To hearten your blows, look, I beg you.’ “The unfortunate young woman drew her sleeve up over a fair white arm and I beheld there a welter of ridges, black and blue and swollen. ***My husband beats me regularly, once a week,’’ she explained. ‘He says otherwise a young wife spoils—spoils unless her considerate husband beats her.’ ”’ “So the affair stood, the day before the duel, with Pal Sandor aroused in all his male, protective feel- ings. The two men met, shook hands, possessed themselves of their weap- ons, started in with a lunge at the drop of the handkerchief. Now Sandor’s opponent was a member of the oldest Hungarian aristoc- racy, while Sandor had made his fortune in wheat tradings. But to these old Hungarian aristocrats, anybody who is in business is rather ignoble. So, as the duel lagged at the start, the aristocrat cried out insults in what an American would think rough, even at the rowdy ringside. “Trader! . Buyer and seller! Merchant! Dealer in three per cents!” So the jibes came at Sandor along with heated sword thrusts, ‘Those insults were fire to my + blood, ”” said Sandor. “I thrust. I put a storm of strenu- ousness into my lunges. He was skillful, but heavy. I had the advantage of superior agil- ity. At length his sword fell—it happened in a hot second: He lay outstretched upon the ground, where I held him with the tip of my sword against his side. The seconds rushed up, but in the next moment we saw that only fright. had broken the blustering wife beater; the wound was a very super- ficial affair. The duel was at an end, by our code. It was time for us to shake hands again. He offered his. I spoke. inks Combats on the Pent As Honor Should “*T don’t shake hands with you,’ I said, ‘until we settle those insults you hurled at me just now. The duel was for your loose talk around Budapest. What is coming now is punishment for those black and blue bruises a lady I could name is wearing. The trader, the dabbler in 3 per cents, now takes pay- ment.’ I flung myself upon him, taking him to the ground with me. I dragged him across my lap, and while the seconds stood by, feebly protesting, I paddled him long ané vigorously upon that part of his anatomy where he sat down. After five minutes I pushed him away. ‘There,’ I said, ‘that from the trader! Now tell that all over Budapest!’ ” To this “pad- dling’’ and this duel there ensued a rather interesting finale. Again into the merchant’s of- fice was shown a languishing lady, well veiled. Again Madame the blonde raised her veil. This time she stretched out her lovely arms and threw them about the Hon. Mr. Sandor. ‘“‘How can I thank you,”’ she asked, tensely. ‘“‘You have brought dott as ae peace to myhome. No longer ne seats me, That meeting—particularly what happened to my huspand after the duel, has made an- other man of him. I want you to promise to me repeat the remedy, if ever he shall re- quire it.” ‘There are two kinds of duels,’”’ Mr. Sandor explains, “‘duels for politics and duels for women. Ofthe first was one I fought with Count Jamsci Zcazhy many years ago. As a senator I was on my feet proposing certain humane changes in the law to favor Jewish Hungariams, Count Zcazhy jumped to his feet, hot and protesting: **‘Sloppy-souled sentimentalist, coddling that race!’ he cried. ** ‘lron-hearted tyrant, what do you realize about the rights of men?’ I flung back,” For, in the Hungarian Parliament, when politics go to the heads of men, they talk with blister- ing bombast. At any rate, and very soon, so many epi- thets had been hurled that they could only be washed away by an expedition to that same field below the snow-capped Hungarian mountains where the choleric wife beater had been soundly spanked. “I fought that duel,” says Sandor, ‘“‘coolly, philosophically, as is my custom when fight- ing for a belief. After an hour and a half of dexterous sword play the seconds consider- ed a victory was mime, And then the catas- trophe. Through some neglect of my. sec- ond, my satchel, filled with money which I had not had time to deposit after the day’s trading, had been stolen. It was vain to sus- pect gypsies—whoever had made away with it was far off by then. Then happened what persons uninitiated in the good feeling which follows most duels would call a miracle. My late. opponent came limping up, for one of his legs had been hurt in the tussel, I had just spoken: “I am a ruined man,’ I said, ‘that money “He stretched out his hand to me. ‘You are not ruined,’ said he, gallantly, ‘for am I not your friend? And have I not means to tide you over?’ “‘He did arrange a loan for me which car- ried methrough. Otherwise a business I had taken long years to build up would have crumpled.”’ So, with graceful reminiscence, does Sen- ator Sandor look back upon his years of dueling. He tells you there is no better way to make true friends than in honorable com- bat. It’s inthe male nature to respect other males courageous enough to fight for that which they believe. On occasion, he has been where he could have killed his opponent, and has been merciful. ‘“‘So would any man of proper spirit,’”’ he says. Sometimes he has hated to fight, and often he has pocketed a bit of slight when he felt that what he calls “true civilization” demanded that he hold his hand.

To repair wooden shingled roofs an un usually simple and speedy method is to use slip patches cut from single-ply asphalt roof- ing. These are long enough to reach from the butt of the shingle up to the first row of nails. Lift the shingle up just far enough to allow a slip to be pushed in place. The sun melts the asphaltum sufficiently to stick the slipin place. No nails are needed. When a roof has to be patched, first unroll the roofing on a floor and brush it well on both sides to prepare the surfaces so they will stick readily. Then divide the roofing into rectangles measuring 3 by 5 or 8 by 6 inches. As many as 2,500 of these slip shin- gles can be obtained from three rolls of one ply roofing.—Popular Science Monthly. NEW “ONE-WAY” COPPER DEFIES ELECTRIC LAWS A little piece of copper, slightly more than an inch square and so thin that it would take 65 of them to make a pile an inch high, has won a place in the electrical hall of fame by defying all the accepted laws of electricity, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. For, while copper is the best of all the cheap and available electrical conductors, this particu- lar piece has the unique property of carrying a current in one direction only—from its face toward its center. Because of that property it can be used to turn alternating current into direct current, opening a field of vast possibilities, since cop- per is cheap and “‘kuprox,” as the material is known, is easy to make, after you know how, It is already on the market in the form of units to replace the electrolytic jars in radio- battery chargers or the rectifying tubes in vacuum-tube chargers, and as rectifiers in several pieces of X-ray and medical apparatus, Battery eliminators using the unit and re- placing both A and B radio batteries, are working in the laboratory and soon will be in production, and, wherever alternating current must be changed into direct, engineers are in- terested in the possibilities of the new ma- terial, Alternating current is far more eco- nomical and practical to generate, but direct current is best in some fields, particularly for elevator motors and similar machines where a high starting torque is. required. So, in practically every city of any size, the power company is forced to generate some direct current for its business and factory cus- tomers, maintaining. power -houses and lines for both. With the: new copper rectifiers, the power company could deliver alternating current to the consumer, using a small rectifier on the premises to convert it into direct. A pile of copper plates, three inches square and less than five inches high, would be sufficient to rectify 100 amperes at 20 volts. : The invention of kuprox is one of the romances of modern research. Scientists years ago discovered that copper, when coat- ed with one of its oxides, became a one- way conductor of electricity, but, because of the high resistance of the black oxide which forms over the surface of copper when oxidized, the discovery had no practical use, When the coating of black oxide was ree moved, the Inability to get a good electrical contact interfered with its application to practical work. It remained for a Cincinnati man to in- vent a method of replacing the black-oxide coating with a layer of pure copper, which not only eliminated the high resistance and provided a good contact, but likewise offered a surface to which connections could be directly soldered. The first discovery, years ago, was just an existing fact, but the per- fection of kuprox is a true invention of something that never existed before, a method of getting a coating ‘of virgin copper over oxide, so that in the final product the oxide rests between sheets of pure metal. John G. H. Liebel is responsible for the invention as a result of his curiosity as to why the metal and oxide would only conduct electricity from the oxide into the copper, and not in the reverse direction, He gur- mised that the reason lay in some change in the atomic structure which ‘took place whfle the oxide was being formed. So he enlisted the aid of S. J. M. Allen, of the University of Cincinnati. Prof. Allen dis- covered that, if made in a somewhat differ- ent manner, the resistance of the plates of kuprox varied according to the pressure ap- plied to them. He immediately visioned a new and extremely delicate electrical balance for weighing minute amounts of matter in his laboratory. * Being the son of a sea captain, a Nova Scotian by birth and an ex- commodore of the Royal Halifax Yacht Club, he saw also another field, in which a small tube, let into the bow of a boat below the water line, would have at its rear end a diaphragm against which the sea water would press when the boat was moving, the pressure varying according to the boat’s speed. A stylus projecting from the diaphragm would press against a pair of kKuprox disks and transmit a varying amount of current to an ammeter, calibrated in knots, on the bridge, a ship’s speedometer, in other words.

Barnes, former president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. Its achieve- ments in this direction usually escape the critics of American policy, but they are held to be no less substantial. ‘“‘In the expanding trade of Europe,” said Mr. Barnes in an address on America’s for- eign trade, ‘‘in its clearly increasing stability, in the reconstructed opportunity of its people, America has played a part which it may well remember with rightful pride. We have too many apologists in public life and in the field of academic theorism. We need instead more chanypions who understand the honor- able record of American service in European reconstruction,.who understand intelligently the great contribution of American industrial philosophy which is rebuilding everywhere the processes of trade in which rest the indi- vidual opportunify. “In t~> conftision of many voices that loudly and ignorantly assert the gross ma- terialism of America and its prosperity we are in danger of forgetting the high ideals of America, which hold certain standards around which, one by one, have rallied the nations of the Old World and, by the inspiration of honest standards, sturdily upheld against the casuistry of Old World economists and diplo- matists, have provided today the solid footing for European reconstruction.”’ | JUST WHY BIRDS MIGRATE. | CIENTISTS believe they have, at last, S discovered why birds leave their spring and summer haunts in the north, and fly south on definite days every year, It is not, they are convinced, because of the change in the weather, nor because food is hard to get in the cold parts of the country during the winter ‘months, that the little feathered folk wing their way to the sunny woods and fields below the Mason-Dixon line. It is ‘the length of the day that counts with the birds, and when darkness comes early in the days of the fall, they go searching for longer, brighter days. With a number of migrating birds, the arrival date in the south is always the same, year after year. Neither food nor tempera- ture can be held accountable for this, accord- ing to Prof, William Rowan, a Boston natur- alist, writing in ‘‘Nature,’’ an English maga- zine. Length of daylight is the only factor of environment that regulates migration, he says. Prof. Rowan strengthens his theory by fre- ferring to the well-known and important dis- coveries concerning the influence of daylight upon plants. If the rate of growth and the time of flowering in a plant is decided to a great extent by daylight, it can also be sup- posed that it affects animals. Through experiments, Prof. Rowan has proved that increasing. daylight by artificial light will cause early growth of gonads, or ‘““‘germ-glands,”’ in birds in the dead of winter. Usually these gonads grow only after the birds have migrated. They pro- duce song in the male birds. Birds. that have been kept by Prof. Rowan in the artificial light do not migrate, no matter how cold the weather is. Other birds, kept only for a short time, disappeared for regions of large daylight as soon as they were released. Therefore, says Prof. Rowan, it appears to be true that the length of the day has the effect on birds, which, it has always been thought, was due to temperature and food. A more active interest in birds is being taken now than ever before. There are in- numerable bird clubs throughout the United States. Some schools give courses in bird lore. The greatest influence is undoubtedly traceable to Scout camps, both for girls and boys, where there are expert teachers to guide them and where honors are given for knowledge of our feathered friends. This increased interest in birds is noted with ap- proval by scientists, who see many future students among these youngsters, (Copyright, 1927, Johnson Features, Inc.) _THE.

He was owned by a family in Germantown, a suburb of Phila- deiphia. His owners were leaving their home and they did not care to take Buddie, the pup, along. So they sent him to the Philadelphia dog- pound at Clearford and Thirty -first streets; there to take his chance at finding a rescuer or facing a more or less merciful death at the hands of Poundmaster Hepford. A local newspaper in quest of “human interest stuff’? for its readers, sent a reporter to the city dogpound to write up the luckless inmates. A cameraman went along. It was the kind of assignment which is rich in chances of pathos. The reporter seems to have made the most of his opportunities. Buddie was sitting in plucky misery on his bench in the pound; his dark eyes sorrowful and bewildered at his desertion by the people who had made much of him and who had then decided he was not worth taking to their new home. The cameraman was struck by the dog’s gallant pose; and he took a picture of the bravely unhappy little fellow. The reporter wrote a corking good human interest yarn about the waif as well as about other prisoned and doomed dogs in the place. A dogpound is one of the saddest spots on earth; next to a prison deathhouse. The bulk of its wretched captives are fated to die. Most of them are friendly and harmless little chaps; whose only crime was that their owners have kicked them out. Most of them die at the hands of the poundkeeper. In some cities a more hideous fate has sometimes been reserved for others of them, at the merciless mercy of medical vivisectors. And yet a dogpound is a necessary evil, under present laws and present conditions. Any one may buy a dog. And there is no law to prevent an owner from throwing that dog and that dog’s puppies into the street, to become scared or diseased waifs. The story of: Buddie, and his photograph, appeared in next morning’s paper. Long before daylight, a man was hammering at the door of the pound, demanding a chance to buy the much-advertised puppy. Pound- master Hepford would not get up at such an hour; so the seeker went away unsatisfied. But at dawn there were six automobiles honking outside the pound and six men all declaring the wanted Buddie. Hepford told them it was a case of “first come, first served.”” Whereupon each of them claimed to be first. While the dispute was raging, the pound telephone began to jingle. Hepford was at the start of one of the busiest days he had known. Here are some of the net results of that day’ s activities; according to the news- paper’ 8 carefully-kept account: There were more ‘than 2,000 telephone calls from people who wanted to redeem ‘Buddie and give him a good home. Hundreds of these telephoners were willing to pay a stiff bonus for the privilege of rescuing him from his. fate; and nearly all of them put up -, °“S w . be On 7 Sa -". ~ we — FUN AW MIMI -——— proudly at his side. an argument when they were told there were other orders ahead of theirs. The telephone did not stop ringing all : day long. Hepford was: half-crazed by the eternal need of going to the receiver and lis- tening to the needless succession of pleas for Buddie. It seemed as if all Philadelphia was insisting on buying the puppy. But that was the easiest part of the pound- keeper’s task, on this exciting day. Besides the telephone applications, 450*persons came to the pound to buy Buddie and take him home. They insisted on seeing the suddenly- famous little dog; and they argued eloquently and sometimes fiercely with the distracted poundkeeper; pleading for leave to pay Buddie’s fine and annex him’ for their own. From three States—two States besides Pennsylvania—came in a great sackful of special delivery letters; each writer hoping to be first to gain ownership of the dog whose picture and story had stirred up such excite- ment. ~ The 2,000 telephone calls, alone, at 5 cents each—not counting the higher tdlls on out-of-town calls—must have cost $100. The uncounted letters with their special delivery stamps must have run up to a considerable sum. The carfares and the gasoline bills of the 450 personal visitors also swelled the amount, All in all, Buddie was putting hundreds of dollars into circulation that day—he who had been deemed useless and be gotten rid of. * ent to the pound to ‘ Hepford stuck to the rule of ‘first come, first served.’”’ The six motorists who had arrived at daybreak each claimed to be first. So, to avoid dispute, it was arranged that they should cut a deck of cards; the winner to take Buddie. They agreed and the cards were produced. The six men clustered around a table, and the cutting began. The lucky lot fell to Elias Applebaum, of 2545 South Fifth street, Phila- delphia. Applebaum eagerly paid Buddie’s license fee. A few minutes later, he was on his way home; with Buddie sitting proudly on the car seat at his side; happy in the finding of a master who could appreciate him and whose chum he could be. Another pleasant outcome of the day was that readers of the newspaper story were so touched by its pathos that they ransomed scores. of other luckless dogs from the pound. Hepford calculated that more than 100 dogs in all would be saved from death, along with the suddenly popular Buddie. . Among other eager claimants for Buddie, at the pound, was Elsworth Lawrence, a small boy, who, finding he could not get the puppy whose story he read, fixed his hopes on a big collie. But it would cost a dollar to get the collie out of the pound. .Like many another small boy, Elsworth did not have a dollar. So two women who had come to the pound in quest of Buddie, each gave him 50 cents; and he departed happily, leading the collie he had saved from death. (Copyright, 1927, The McNaught Syndicate, Inc.)

Perhaps there is no one of our immediate neighbors more familiar, yet less known, than the common cricket. For instance, I wonder how many of my readers are aware that the cricket is most catholic in his tastes. He will eat fruit and vegetable matter. At the same time a cricket is not averse to making a hole in your clothing. One of the league members sends a word of warning to good housewives. She says: “I wonder if the members of the Radio Nature League know that crickets are even more destructive of clothing than are moths. Moths eat only wool, but crickets eat cotton, silk or wool. Last fall I heard a cricket piping in my clothes closet. I tried to find him, but couldn’t at that time. Later my dog dis- covered him hopping around the room and destroyed him. But when I came to put on my best gown I found the cricket’s work in several holes in the front breadth. ‘The male cricket reminds me of a tiny black knight in armor. He fights valiantly. Often I have watched crickets in combat. They will stand on their hind legs and push and fight and strusgle until one is vanquished. Then the victor will tune up his fiddle. The fight probably is for a sluggish lady cricket. Sir Knight, the victor, fiddles frantically until her attention is attracted.” A Cricket Thermometer. This is from a real observer—one with the soul of a scientist. ‘‘Some years ago,’ says Mr. C. W. Kinney, “I noticed that the fall or climbing crickets appeared to speed up in the frequency of their notes as the temperature of the air increased. A study of this phenome- non developed that these crickets not only respond to changes in temperature, but do so in accord with a straight-line character- istic. That is, for each rise of 1 degree Fahrenheit the cricket adds one note per fifteen seconds, or four per minute. At 39 degrees the cricket becomes silent. There- fore, to obtain the temperature by the cricket thermometer, count the frequency of shriling per minute and divide it by four, or count the frequency per fifteen seconds, and in either case add the number obtained to 39. The result is the temperature in degrees. . Thus 20 shrills, or notes, per fifteen seconds equals 59 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the common cricket that begins to tune up = about August 1.” The Starving Chipmunk, The following story is from an employe of a Government bureau in the suburbs of Washington. She writes: ‘‘The building in which I work has deep cement areaways to admit light to the basement rooms. One day early this summer what appeared to be a dead chipmunk was discovered outside the window of one of these rooms. The little fellow proved to be almost dead, but not quite. He was taken out on the lawn in the hope that he would revive, but when I was told of it I went out and brought him in, because I had frequently seen sick birds killed by ants when they were too far gone to fight the ants off. BABY! NEW YORKIWEAPEL.. PHoTS. BY CLYDE FisHec™ GORISION: CRICKET? —IIALE AND FEPMIALE PHOTO 4 BY _4 h- Ww. BROWNELL ‘“‘When I picked Chippie up I saw that he was dying of starvation. .For goodness knows how long he had been in that area. His eyes were glazed and he apparently breathed only at irregular and infrequent intervals. He was so near dead that I had no idea that it would be possible to revive him, but it was worth trying. Remembering that in the case of a human suffering from exposure, hunger and thirst, the first thing to do would be to get them warm, I filled a hot water bottle, wrapped Chippie in a clean cloth, and waited. In about half an hour he was beginning to breathe almost regularly. Then I tried a drop of water on his mouth.’ He was un- conscious or else too weak to swallow. After several attempts I managed to get a few drops down. Then when I held up his head and offered him a spoonful of water he sucked it down greedily. “The water did its work, but he was still limp and it was out of the question for me to get any food down that empty stomach. That night I took him home with me and put him in a basket with some flannel rags and the hot water bottle. I then tried milk. From then on he improved steadily and took his milk every fifteen minutes. By bedtime he was able to crawl about a little. ‘“T have a pet white rat to which I feed as- sorted seed of cracked corn. This was just what Chippie needed, and on the following day I noticed that he would store his cheeks full of*the grain until they’ stuck out be- yond his eyes. Gradually this would dis- appear. So between his grain and milk, about which he was positively greedy, he became a little stronger. His eyes were now bright as beads, but his strength was far from normal. The third day he drank very little milk, ate more grain and a strawberry, and for the most part slept the sleep of the dead. By the time the fourth day came around he was bright and seemed to be quite strong and active, although of course his little sides were painfully flat. That day I took him to a quiet part of the grounds and let him go.’’ Would that this spirit of kindness with the little wild things were universal. In the same mail with ‘that delightful letter came another telling of a boy deliberately killing young robins which could not yet fly. And only a day or two ago I took to a bird hospital a young robin that had been rescued from boys who had knocked down the nest and killed three of the poor baby birds. Independent Bluebirds. Little by little the evidence accumulates which leads me to believe that Winsome Blue- ‘ bird, despite his plaintive, elusive whistle, is learning to stand up for his rights. Time was when the English sparrow would chase blue- birds from their nesting .boxes. It doesn’t happen so often now. In fact, that little feathered bully is quite likely to be chased himself. Winsome has even reached the point of standing up to that other interloper from across the water—the starling. *‘Early in the season,” says a correspondent, “several pairs of bluebirds attempted to make use of our numerous bird houses, but were as usual driven away by the starlings. One pair, however, returned and started to occupy one of the houses, but were again attacked an‘ driven off. But they had set their*hearts on that house and, returning once more, took possession. When a starling interfered one of the bluebirds returned the attack. It was funny to see that starling sit solemnly on a twig and take the medicine that plucky blue- bird gave him. After several of these set-tos the bluebircs were allowed to proceed with the building of the nest. To our surprise, not only did the starlings leave the eggs un- molested, even’in the absence of the parent birds, but a family of young bluebirds was successfully raised with the starling family in the next tree. We are hoping that there wil! be more of the’brave bluebirds next vear, now that they have learned that the black coward needs only a little of his.own medicine to put him in his place.”’ - ——— A Naturalist’s Question Box. Warner Smith, an observing 12-year-old boy, saw a crow darting at a hawk. The crow followed the hawk for some distance, Warner wants to know if hawks catch young crows. Some hawks will take any young birds. That is to say, certain species of hawks will. In this respect, however, the hawk is no worse than many crows. You will find, however, Warner, that hawks are always annoyed by all sorts of birds smaller than themselves, the crow included. They appear to be regard- ed as universal enemies. Harold Sinclair says he found a toad cling- ing to the side of a rock. He looked as if h@ were eating a seed from an elm tree. ‘‘Wa: he a tree toad?’’ asks Harold. ‘‘What do tre: toads eat, and where do they live?” Undoubtedly it was a so-called tree toad, which, properly speaking, is a tree frog. Tree frogs live on insects. In the early spring they are in the water for breeding purposes, after which they seek trees. Sometimes theys will spend the better part of a summer in 2 single tree. They have considerable ability in the matter of changing color.

GENTLEMAN of middle age, if one might judge from his car- riage and movements, stood on the platform of the railroad station in a small Vermont town. The evening was cold and he was muffled to the eyes by overcoat collar and neckkerchief. In the growing darkness one gathered the impression that he was dressed as a gentleman of means should be. He turned toward the station door, thrust- ing his hand inside his overcoat and into his trousers pocket as he did so, and then he paused suddenly, with a gesture of perturbed surprise. He flung open his coat and explored all his pockets, after which he rushed out upon the platform to see if the carriage which had brought him from the hotel was still in sight. It was not. He glanced at his watch. His train was due in three minutes. After a moment’s hesitation, and with apparent reluctance, he stepped to the ticket window and peered through at the agent, a young man with fiery red hair which had flamed in the world not longer than 25 years. “Young man,” he said, “I have lost my pocketbook. My trainis due in two minutes, I've got to be in New York in the morning. Can you loan me $50?” He felt of his cravat and drew from it a pin which he extended toward the agent. ‘“‘This is worth $200,” he said. The red-haired agent scowled and craned his neck to get a better view of the man who fYade this extraordinary request. “Come inside,” he said, motioning toward a communicating door. When the stranger was inside the office the youthful agent removed the shade from is lamp. ‘‘Would you mind taking off your hat and turning down your collar?” The stranger hesitated a second, but com- lied. The young man studied his features riefly and walked over to a safe in the corner, from which he took an envelope bear- Ing his own name, and drew from {it five 10-dollar bills. “Put your pin back in your tie,” he said, and handed the currency to the stranger. The older man appeared nonplused, but Presently seemed to sense an explanation. “O, you recognize me?’”’ “Never saw you in my life,” said the agent, who was busily stamping a ticket for the Stranger. “Then why did you want to look at mv face, and why do you lend me this money Without the security I offered ?’’ “Knew I didn’t need security after I got a look at vou. Better hustle. Train just whistled. Here’s my name and address on this slip, so you’ll know where to return the money. Peter McGee is the name. There she comes. Stops only a minute.” “Thank you, young man.” The gentleman eyed Peter a moment as one gazes at a strange and unexpected phenomenon. ‘‘Good night.’ Three days later Peter McGee received a letter containing a check for $60. He cashed it, replaced $50 in his envelope in the safe and returned the extra $10 to the sender, whose name appeared to be Amos Willard. Peter did not recall having heard the name before. It was associated with nothing in his mind, and he promptly forgot the incident. it was a.small courtesy, and Peter was almost as ready to perform small courtesies for anybody who happened along as he was to take off his coat and skin his able knuckles against their jaws in case the circumstances seemed to require such treatment. A week afterward, when the whole matter had passed from his mind, he received a téle- gram which requested him to come to New fork on a certain date, all expenses paid, to discuss a business proposition. It was signed Amos Willard. Peter thought it over, and his thoughts ran something after this fashion: “I’m tired of this town and this job. There’s nothing in it. I've got to quit sometime if I ever expect to get anywhere. New York is a good place to ket somewherein. There’s nobody dependent on me, so [ can’t hurt anybody but myself. Guess I'll take a look.” Whereupon he resigned his position, pock- eted his savings which amounted to some 400-odd dollars, and went to New York. He checked his bag in the parcel room, and in- quired his way to the address on lower Broad- way which Amos Willard had given him, out he did not inquire of anybody who Amos Willard was The office he sought was on the fourteenth story of a bigger building than Peter had ever been in before that moment, and the office itself was more sumptuous. It reminded Peter of books he had read. “IT want to see Mr. Willard,” he said to a young woman behind a desk. ‘“‘Have you an appointment?” “y os.”" *“*At what hour?’”’ “Right now,” said Peter. He had come all the way from Vermont to see this man, at this man’s request, and he was not geing to be kept waiting. “Your name?’ “Peter McGee,”’ “One moment, please.” She returned presently. “Mr. Willard will see you at 10 o’clock tomorrow morn- ing,’ she said.”’ Peter’s red hair bristled. “Will you say to Mr. Willard that I am here at his request. I don’t know him nor what he wants, except that he seems to want to see me. I don’t know how badly he wants to see me, but it’s got to be badly enough to see me now. Please tell him = ‘“‘I—why, I've never delivered such a mes- gaze to Mr. Willard.” ‘You can never do a thing the first time but once,’ said Peter; and the young woman, impressed with the idea that Peter must be a very important individual indeed to take such a tone with her employer, returned to Mr. Willard and delivered an expurgated ver- sion of the message. Mr. Willard smiled de- lightedly. “Show the young man in,” he said. As Peter came in Mr. Willard extended his hand. “I’m glad to see you, young man. Sit down. Would you mind telling me just what reasoning urged you to do as I asked in my telegram?’’ ‘You said you Wanted to discuss a busi- ness proposition with me. That meant I could be valuable to you in some way. If I could be valuable to you it would be profit- Bee: 60 SOs 4 At any rate I stood to lose nothing, because I was going to throw up my job at home.,’’ ‘‘You looked me up, of course.”’ "mG. ‘‘But you know who I am?” ‘No. Didn’t need to.

When will you be ready to come to work” “I'm at work now,” said Peter, and he hung his hat upon a hook. This is the true story of the manner in which Perer McGee became associated with Amos Willard. Fantastic and absurd rumors have been set afloat by gossiping tongues to account for the appearance of this red-headoq young man in the affairs of one of the first financiers of his day. All who read this are in position to deny them authoritatively. if Peter was unaware of the identity and importance of Amos Willard when he arrived in New York, he did not long remain so. He soon discovered that very big men indeed were humble in Willard’s presence, not only American business men, but others from far- off places where wealth was dug from the earth or gleaned from the vegetation of the earth, or was dipped up out of the waters that covered the earth, Peter saw and en- joyed it all, and while he was sometimes amazed, it was a point of pride with him never to display his amazement, and to accept the most remarkable occurrences with a calm and matter-of-fact air that tickled the humor of his employer. Peter had been private secretary to Amos Willard some three months before that event occurred, which quite revolutionized his am- bitions and furnished him with a definite ob- jective in life. Peter judged the occurrence to be about 19 years old; as a matter of fact, she was much older—she was 20. She entered the private door and stared at Peter’s red hair and said: ‘‘Where’s father?’’ “Thank you,” said Peter, and then he blushed a very little and looked confused. “IT beg your pardon!” Manifestly Peter could not explain that he had said ‘“‘Thank you” involuntarily to Nature or the Universe, or the Gods-of-Things-as- They-Are, because they had shown him exact- ly what he wanted, so he said, ‘“‘Mr. Willard is away for the afternoon—but I am here.”’ “What I wanted was a parent,’”’ said Miss Willard. “A parent’s private secretary is almost the same thing.’’ “But Il wanted $100.” ‘One moment,” said Peter. He stepped downstairs to the bank, cashed his own check for the amount and grumbled at the elevator for mounting so slowly. “Thank you,’’ said Miss Willard. ‘You're a much more efficient-secretary than father’s last oné. He was afraid to give me money if father wasn't here.”’ “A good private secretary should know what his employer would do—and then do it.”’ “How do you know father would give me a hundred dollars?’’ “Because,” said Peter, ‘‘anybody would have to give you anything you asked for.” Now if Peter had thought up that speech, or had offered it with an air of gallantry he would certainly have been snubbed. But he said it as one making an observation upon the obvious, and with such an air of sin- cerity that he did not seem at all forward or impertinent, and Miss Willard smiled and examined his red hair again as she tucked the bills away in her purse. “Thank you,’’ she said * * * and was gone, The next time she came Miss Willard called him Mr. MeGee so he knew she had been asking questions about him, and Was over- joyed, but his joy did not last long, because he read in the paper that she was going to matry a duke. Peter Was acquainted with the nobleman whose name was connected in the society columns with that of Miss Willard. The gen- tleman had come to New York as the repre- sentative of the DeGroot Diamond Mines, Inc., and it was his mission to dispose of a great amount of the stock of this company to the American public. He had come, first of all, to Mr. Willard, who had declined to have anything to do with the business, but who, owing to certain letters of introduction carried by the Duke of Tenstairs, had shown him certain social courtesies of which the duke had taken able advantage. Mr. Willard, who often—perhaps to satisfy his sense of humor—asked Peter his opinion of certain gentlemen, said to his sécretary after the duke’s first call. “And what is your judgment of his grace, Peter?” “I’d take his scarf pin as security,” said Peter. It was after Miss Willard’s appearance in the office that Peter wrote his resigna- tion and laid it on his employer’s desk. “What’s this, Peter?’ Mr. Willard asked in surprise, ‘‘Somebody hiring you away from me? Dissatisfied? “What is it?’ “Perfectly satisfied, Mr. Willard. Per- sonal matter.”’ “As for instance?’’ Peter drew a long breath and wriggled his shoulders as he had been seen to do on numerous occasions before embarking upon physical conflict. “IT have seen Miss Willard twice,” he said. ‘She is exactly what I want most in the world. I’m going to try to get her. You wouldn’t allow me, of course, so I resign. Only square thing to do.” Mr. Willard did not laugh, nor on the contrary did he scowl. He seemed rather sorry. “Peter,” he said, “I’m afraid you’re going to burn your fingers. * * * What would you do with my daughter if you got her? De- pend on the old man for the wherewithal?” Peter shook his head. “What then? Think it’s fair to ask her to live on $75 a week, or $10,000 a year? She couldn’t do it? I wouldn’t let her. Also I won't support.a son-in-law.” “Don’t blame you, sir, * * * If I remember, you were earning $18 a week at my age. You told me that?” va the “Well, sir?’’ Mr. “Willard laughed. “Resignation reject- ed,” he said. “I can’t allow my daughter to deprive me of a secretary. On the other hand, I shan’t help my secretary deprive me ofa daughter. You’ve set your mind on her and you’ve a right to have a try for her. But, in decency, you can’t make love to her until you can take care of her, can you?” “eNO, Sir. *-.* © If I had a million?” “You haven’t,” said Mr. Willard, and there the matter ended. Now Peter was a frugal young man. He arrived in New York with a few hundreds of dollars, He had added $50 a week to these since his arrival, and now had on deposit upward of a thousand. For days after his interview with Mr. Willard he looked at his bank book and demanded of himself how he could multiply his fortune a thousand times—and did not find a satis- factory answer. However, he was deter- mined and far from faint-hearted. Early in June Mr. Willard called Peter to his club on a matter of business and kept him to lunch. At the next table four gen- tlemen were talking golf. ‘‘We’ve got to add another 18 holes,’’ said one of them. “Right off,’’ said another. “I suppose we could buy the Watkins farm adjoining our present property.” “At a price.’”’ “Better see about ft right away, then. “Without ask- Uy Gy YY ‘ : é he ‘ har bE ely , hs. ny, Ty) lo 4 ps ey ve Ty Seay « re | tie) Galas = 3, oa a ee ee ae Mp ile 4 CG eee i eda 7 iy \: i ov Mae er ey .

He went to his bank, drew a thousand dollars in cash and touk the Lone Island Railroad to the town where the Purl- ing Brook Club was located. A jitney carried him to the links and beyond to the farm- house occupied by Mr. Watkins. Mr. Wat- kins was in, Peter introduced himself and his mission. “Will you set a-price on this farm?” he asked. “Fifteen hundred an acre.”’ Peter whistled. ‘‘How many acres? “Two hundred.”’ “Give you a thousand.” “Good afternoon,” gaid Mr. Watkins. Peter did not leave—for an houy. When he did go he carried in his pocket an option on the property, good for 10 days, at $1,250 anacre. Mr. Watkins kept Peter’s $1,000. Peter walked to the Purling Creek Ulnb house and asked for Mr. Rankin, one of the gentlemen he had seen at lunch that noon. Mr. Rankin had just emerged from a cold shower and was in excellent humor,’ but Peter ruffled it somewhat. ‘| have just bought the Watkins farm, Mr. Rankin,” he said, ‘‘and I am offering it vour club first.’’ “At what figure, young man’?’’ “Seventeen hundred and fifty dollars an acre. ‘‘Robbery.”’ Peter shrugged his shoulders. ‘I know where I can dispose of it for subdivision pur- poses,” he said. ‘But I thought it was only fair to give you first chance.’’ “Give you $1,250.” “IT have one price. That is the last word. I have an hour to spare, and can give you that long to decide.’’ Mr. Rankin stared at Peter as if he were of half a mind to have him shown vigorously off the premises. He compromised, however, by leading him into the lounge, giving him a cigar, and excusing himself to talk to his fellow governors. Peter waited in a frame of mind. Well within the hour five gentle- men returned and argued with Peter elo- quently, but their eloquence was futile. His price remained where he had set it. and they capitulated. At 6 o’clock he left that place with a check in his pocket for $101,000. As he rode toward the station there was one pleasant thought in his mind, namely, “Now I can decently make $100,000 worth of love to Dorcas Willard.”’ Fortune favored Peter. Mr. Willard sprained his ankle and was confined to his Long Island home. For two weeks Peter became an inmate of,.the house, occupied a few hours each day by his secretarial duties, but at liberty for the remaining hours to make $100,000 worth of love. He did so with characteristic thoroughness—and fn the “Golf cranks—- ie | process came to dislike the Duke of Tenstairs thoroughly, because the Duke was very much in the way. “But remember,” he said to himself many times, “that a hundred thousand is a devil of a ways from being a million.’ Because the Duke was his principal rival, Peter studied the man from all angles and perspectives. As has been indicated, Petér did not believe the Duke to be a good risk unless supported by ample security. In short, he suspected the Duke. He be- lieved the Duke was incapable of affection, and would cheerfully have substituted any other girl for Dorcas Willard if the financial advantages were equal or superior. What Dorcas thought about the Duke he could not determine for a long time—not untit he found her crying in the Sunken Garden one afternoon. It was a very good place to cry, and a splendid place to be com- forted. Peter rather forgot to limit himself to a hundred thousand dollars’ worth of at- tention to Dorcas, with the satisfactory, but unexpected -result, that she wept on his shoulder. ‘“T don’t want to marry him. He’s old and he’s a stick, and [I don’t want to live in England—and ¥ “Then kick him out,” said Peter inele- gantly. “Tt’s auntie. She’s—she’s just shoving him down my throat. I—QO, I don’t know what to do. Some day she’ll argue me into it, and then my life will be all smashed to smithereens. I—O, I like you lots better than him. “So do I,” said Peter. Dorcas looked up suddenly. ‘I know,” she said. ‘‘Il could marry you—just as easy, Peter. I—I like you a lot. That’s what I’ll do. WVll—lI’ll elope with you, and then they can’t make me marry anybody else.” — ‘You bet they couldn’t,’’ said Peter. ‘‘Come on ... Now,” said Dorcas. Peter shook his head. Dorcas looked puzled, then a little fright- ened, then aghast. “Don’t you ‘love me, Peter McGee?’”’ she demanded. ‘“You’ve act- ed like it.’’ “I do,’’ said Peter, “but I-haven’t acted like but $100,000 worth, I can’t, That’s all I've got. I—I’m after the million, and the minute I get it we’ll elope, or be married in a church, or in an airship.” He stopped suddenly, “Unless,” he said with a straight- ening of his lips, “‘you’re just offering to marry me to escape the Ditke,”’ “I—I’m not, Peter. I like you. Honestly I do. I think it’s on account of your hair.” Peter ran well over his hundred thousand dollars’ worth then, but presently remember- ed. “I’m after that million,” he said. ‘You sit tight. If things get too hot, you just call on me. If worse comes to worst I’]] marry you anyhow, million or no million.”’ ‘“‘That’s too sweet of you,”’ said Dorcas, not without a certain grain of irony. | Now Peter McGee had scrutinized the Duke of Tenstairs with shrewd persistency, and in scrutinizing the Duke he had also given of his best thought to the DeGroot Diamond Mines, Inc: He knew all the Duke had to tell about them, all the publie knew, all skilled operators on the market believed, and a few things he had surmised for himself. He knew that the stock of the company was Stationary at $40 with a par value of $100. He Knew it was regarded as specula- tive to a degree, and he knew a certain group of interested men had sent to investigate the best and most reliable mining expert in the United States. Before the public traded in DeGroot it awaited the report of this expert. Peter believed the Duke knew as much about the properties as the expert could dis- cover, but the Duke was clinging with British tenacity to his knowledge. Peter also be- lieved the Duke would use his information at the right moment for his own benefit, and would not scruple to rook his confreres in London, In short, Peter fancied the Duke as an expert in the gentle art of double cross. “It would be a _ beautiful thing,” Peter said to himself, “if I could make the Duke finance my million dollars” worth of love- making.” Peter contemplated the idea and became fond of it. As private secretary to Mr. Willard, Peter had potential advantages to the Duke of Tenstairs. Peter perceived it and allowed the duke to have his way about it. Undoubt- edly Peter possessed crumbs of information which would be vastly profitable to a mer- cenary nobleman, and who can hlame such a nobleman if he rather condéscended to such a secretary and flattered him and appeared to give him much of his confidence? Certainly not Peter. “Everything hinges on the report of the American expert,’”’ said the duke to i’eter, and he showed his wide téeth through a smile. “The report is due,” said the duke with meaning. *‘Indeed.’’ “It would be advantageous it one knew what it contained ahead of all] others,” said the duke. “‘Naturally,” said Peter. ’ “Now I wouldn’t go as far as to say I know the contents of that report,” said the duke with a very knowing look, “but I pave done my best—I have done my pest.” “And your best would be very zood,’’ said Peter, “I rather fancy so,” said the duke. “He wants me to think he knows what the report will say,’”’ said Peter to himself, “and, consequently, he doesn’t know what it will say. But I’ll bet a cookie he knows mighty well whether those properties are any good or not. We'll see.’’ “If,” said the duke, “the public knew what I have an idea I know, the bottom might drop out of DeGroot—and then again, it might not.’’ Peter was silent to Phat, but he scig to himself, ‘If this bird sells a share of stock I’m wise, We'll see * * * Now if.I Was a crook and wanted to pin the beé on my friends in a dea] like this, how would 1 go about it?’’ So Peter endeavored to place himself in the shoes of a crook, and to function mentally in crooked style. It was easy, for thé mental processes made use of in such cases are usually absurdly simplé. “If it's good,” sald i ag ey Wiig EES SRN GBM MN BCS ee Duke by clarence BUDDINGTON KELLAND | Ses le gle aia ti i se alle WE 9 Seer ne eee ke ual Peter, “the duke will sell. He’ll kick that stock down to nothing, and then he'll buy it. Um Ad | “I wonder,” said the duke, “if you would do mé a favor?” “Certainly,”’ said Peter. “Sell a hundred shares of DeGrodt at the market. I don't want to be known in tile trade.” “Naturally,” said Peter. He went to his room that night and specu- lated upon possibilities and likelihoods. ‘I've got $100,000,” he said. “It's no good, I might as well have nothing. I'd rather have nothing. Therefore I will have nothing—or stretch that piece to a million. * * * And much obliged duke.’’ Whereupon Peter went into the market and s0ld DeGroot short, putting up a five-point margin. He sold no less than 20,000 shares before any decided slump appeared—because, apparently, he had beaten the duke to if. His average sales were at 35. * * * Next cay the Curb was glutted with rumors. DeGroot was worthless. The report of the expert had been stolen,‘ and it showed the minés to be of negtigible producing values. Even the most interested parties were dump- ing their holdings and standing from under. DeGroot tumbled. It hit 30 before closing of the market. It was at 20 before noou next day and closed at 17. Next day the descent continued until the stock reached five, and there it paused, uncertainly, Peter reflected. Next morning he closed his accoun* with a profit of $600,000, and was close 1% his mil- lion—but it was not a million. “The come- back if there is a comeback, will be siower,”’ he said, and gave orders to his broker to buy easily and gently up to 20,000 shares. “No margin stuff this time,’ he said. “If I’ve guessed right I want the certificates.” He got them. In lots of 100, 500, they dribbled in, until, in his own safety deposit box he had 20,000 shares of DeGroot stock which cost him an even $100,000. Then he waited..* * * Somebody else started to buy! Peter owned one-fifth of thse stock of a $10,000,000 corporation, and had the cérti- ficates to show for it. “Now, if the duke really is a crook,” said Peter, hopefully, and because it was Sunday ‘and thé time was his own, he went out on Long dsland to make $700,000 worth of love to Dorcas Willard. She liked it much better than she did the previous $100,000 worth. “Peter,” she said, “I can’t stand it much longer. Auntie is unbearable. And the duke—he’s always underfoot I—oh, some- times it seems as if they’ve taken my wiil away from me and shut it in a dark closet where I can’t find it. One of these days they’re going to squeeze a promise to marry him out of me—then that will be too bad for you, Peter, because I always keep my promises.” “Hold out as long as you can,” said Peter, hoping very, very much that the duke was as crooked as he suspected he was. “Just why won't you Marry me Peter ?’’ “Can’t afford it.”’ “But when Mamma died she left me $1,- 000,000. It’s mine. We could live on that.” “And have folks call me Dorcas Willard’s husband. Nix. You’re going to be Peter McGee’s wife, and mighty proud of it.” “IT should be anyhow, Peter.” “O, I shouldn’t balk on account of your million. I love you enough to marry you with $5,000,000,” said Peter recklessly. “So does the duke.” — “Um * * * But I'm your father’s secre- tary, and he wouldn’t accept my resigna- tion, and left it to my decency, don’t you see, So I can’t marry you till I've got my million.”’ “I'll give it to you, and then you'll have it,” she said with finished logic. Monday morning Mr. Willard kept his secretary busy with various matters until luncheon time. Peter was efficient—as effi- cient as he would have been if he had not been crazy to get his broker on the telephone to find out what was happening to DeGroot. After luncheon he could not find Dorcas— at least not until he had searched for her all over the. place. He found her crying in the sunken garden, which seemed to be her favorite crying spot. “Tf you'll wait just a minute till I tele- phone,” he said, “I’ll comfort you. I'll * die “Go away,” she sobbed. . “Go away from me. Don’t come near. I hate you * *,* I hate any man that won’t marry me * * * I- I’m going to promise to marry the duke, I know I am.’’ “You come in the house with me,” he said. ‘Come right this minute.” He was very stern about it, and she was, without doubt, much frightened. At any rate she complied. He held her. hand tightly so she could not run away from him, and led her to the tele- phone... Still grasping her hand, he lifted the receiver with the other hand and called his broker. “How’s DeGroot?” he asked. “Moving up.” “How much?” “Two points since morning.” “H’m * * * Hold this line. I’ll be right here on the other end of it. Send somebody to re- port to me every 5 minutes.” y He turned to Dorcas. “You sit right here, he said. “I think I’m going to marry you this afternoon.” “You think so?”’ “I’m $40,000 nearer it than I was when I woke up.” A voice in the telephone said, ‘500 shares just sold at 9. There’s a rumor the expert is in New York.” “Hope he is,’ said Peter, and to Dorcas, “We've just moved another $40,000 nearer. “What if it drops?’’ said Dorcas. “You'll—you'll have to marry the Duke, if you can’t hold out.” A voice from the telephone: ‘“‘Dropped 2 points; rumor the report is adverse.” “Outch!” said Peter, but he gripped Dor- cas’ hand until she wrig@led. A wait of 15 minutes ensued, then an excited voice came over the phone, DeGroot’s busted loose. The engineer’s report is published. Says the niines are as good as the best DeBeers. She’s whooping. Everybody’s grabbing. Going up by jumps. Market’s gone crazy.” “Me, too,” shouted Peter, and he pulled Dorcas to him and kissed her a full million dollars’ worth. “Run up and get on your hat. Hustle. We’re reaching for the mil- lion. It’ll come any second. Hustle.” She obeyed. Peter kept his ear glued to the receiver. “DeGroot at 40—at 43—at ° “I don’t give a tinker’s damn where it’s at,”’ shouted Peter . “I’ve got it—lI’ve got it, and some left over.” He figured quickly. DeGroot selling at 40 made his stock show him a profit of $700,000. Add that to $600,- 000 already in hand, and to his original $100,000, and he had close to a million and a half. He rushed to the stairs. “Hustle, Dorcas, hustle,” he shouted. It was 8 o’clock when Mr. and Mrs. Peter McGee returned to Amos Willard’s Long Island home, They ascended the stairs to Mr. Willard’s room and entered. “Er Mr. Willard,” said Peter, “allow me to present Mrs. McGee.” | Mr. Willard’s eyes showed hurt. He shook his head. ‘‘Peter,’’ he said, “I’m disappoint- ed—I had confidence in you.’’ ; CONTINUED ON PAGE 8, COLUMN @._ now, —

Yes, I am out of the hospital and the old “stomacher” is percolating along on all four. If it wasn’t for arguing with the nurse over what you can-do, and what you ought not to do, why I would have a lot more time than I have now. You can’t look cross-eyed but what you hear, “‘Now you look out! You know what the doctor said!” Say, Listen, the doctor don’t have to keep warning me. I am not looking to be spread out and inhaling ether as a steady diet. It didn’t take much to put me insensible, but I-hope I have heard my last ‘ay perfectly quiet now. You will feel better in a little while. Its the ether wearing off.” Laying and Lying. I am not out to break any quick re- covery records, I never did. get all the laying down I wanted in my life before anyway. So I am just laying and lying. I wouldn’t have minded the whole thing so much, but they wouldn’t let me have any chili, or chili con carne, as you amateur eaters call it. LI sure do love my chili. If I could have just bogged down to a few bowls of good old greasy chili, I would have been well in a week. But I got the next best thing that I wanted and that was some real corn- bread. Not this old yellow kind made with eggs, but cornbread, real old corn dodger, or corn pone, made with meal, hot water and salt. But I had to have my sister, Mrs. Tom McSpadden, from Chelsea, Okla., show ’em how that should be made, she even had to send back to get the meal, they don’t know what corn meal is out here. I mean corn meal. And she showed ’em how to fix some string beans with some fat meat. Not just boiled in old hydrant water, but a real piece of ham or the side of a shoat. Not So Good. Hospitals are all right, they are our greatest blessings. They take fine care of you, but when the old appetite comes back you don’t want to be mixed up with a kitchen where there is one of those “Dietitians,” they know what is good for your health, but they don't know what is good for your appetite. They figure out the calories, but I like to figure out the odor. If I happen to be having some bean soup, I want to be able to locate, at pretty prompt inter- vals, some little objects that look to me like beans. I don’t want a bowl of it where’ the beans have just been driven through there at low tide. Now here is California that is sup- posed to raise everything. We had to send back to Oklahoma to get all the following provisions that: really make life worth while. You see California is populated with such a mongrel breed of people from every State and place in the world, they really have no dishes of their own. You give a Losangeli- cian five more gallons of gas, two hot dogs, a bottle of red soda pop, and somebody to blow off to, and you have just about covered this national diet. Why if one of these transplanted birds ever sat down to a real Oklahoma meal, he would eat so much he would be speechless, and thats the nearest dead a Californian can be without being buried. Tafae OYS | aK YOU Tt . MY MS PoLOy f. NAVY, We had nothing Why, these people don’t even know what “‘kon-nutchy” is, or kurd, or crack- lins, or chitlins. All that is just like speaking perfect English to em, they don’t know what you are talking about. Oklahoma had to furnish our real hick- ory smoked hams. Can you imagine ’em smoked in eucalyptis logs? There ain’t a hickory bush this side of the Ver- digris River. Why we had to even send home for “sorgum,” but by golly I am living now. I am eating real biscuits for breakfast. No lightbread or “‘wasp nest” for mine. Biscuits and real ham and cream gravy. Oklahoma will show the world how to live yet. I sho am living pretty, but I like to had to die to get it. Well, that’s enough about eating. What we got to take up is how is the world treating us? Well, the world is not so much in uni- son for us when we have nothing to give up for them. We were the bright par- ticular hero of the Washington Disarm- ament conferencé, because we offered to show them something that no nation had ever seen before, and that was a nation sinking its own ships. Well, they all fell for that right away, and we showed them what a great fellow we was. We just sunk till we had nothing else to sunk. We promised to scrap our big building program that would have by now made us the biggest navy in the world. “We are big hearted Otis, just watch us show you the biggest boob trick every performed by an alleged civilized people.” Sink or Swim, Well, that went off with so much ap- plause from the other nations we said: ““Let’s have another disarmament con- ference.” We thought it was their time to sink, and they come thinking ‘Well maybe-they will sink again.” But we had nothing left to sink, we had. had five years to think it over and decided we hadn’t done so well at the first sink- ing as we had at first thought. Eng- land said: “It’s all right for you fellows to build ’em and sink ’em yourself. You have plenty of money, and it’s a great way of showing your extravagance, but we haven’t much money and when we FOR HAVING ¥ SUCH A& LARGE —& TRusp WIL) / —_ ee . left to sink. build one its with the distinct under- standing that any time it is sunk, it will go down a-shooting.” England finally admitted that America had a right to as big.a navy as they have. Now, that sure was display- ing a bunch of generosity. There is one thing that has been mighty gratifying and that is the way the American Dele- gation stood up at this conference. | went over on the Leviathan last year with our delegation, and afterward visited them at Geneva, and the main two then are the same ones that are doing so fine for us now. That is Hugh Gibson, our Ambassador to Belgium, and Hilary Jones, the finest old admiral that ever looked with a knowing wink at England’s “apple sauce” toward us and our navy. They have never fooled either one of these birds. Well, the movie magnates was sup- posed to cut the actors salary, but they announced it without looking at their contracts they had with them. Soon as they learned to read the English part of the contract, why they called it off — the whole thing to over- ead. (Copyright, 1927, The McNavght Syndicate, Inc.) —~ SIGNAL STOPS THIS ELEVATOR. Elevators of the kind that often pass by your floor withou ctopping ars being re- placed in a 38-story N: building by cars that stop automatical:y on signals from waiting passengers.

LL "4 “Gs gd GA z ~ wf Ww, the By FRANK SULLIVAN A xood déal of nonsense is spilled annually about the mosquito. As one who knows the mosquito, who has made a friend and pet of him, I am in a position to state that he is by nature one of the most kindly insects extant. I am covpsidered the Albert Payson Terhune of the mosquito, and what Mr. Terhune has done for the collie I plan to do for the mos- quito. We have five pet mosquitoes at our house, named Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Vomica and Luke, in honor of the Five Finger Lakes in Central New York. That is to say, not quite exactly, because I couldn’t think of the fifth lake, and so had to name the fifth mosquito Luke for the time being, until the missing name contes to me: It’s on the tip of my tongue right now, but I can’t find the tongue. I’m always mislaying that tongue, and generally the laugh is on me when one of my grandchildren, with an arch grin, says, “Why, grandpop, there’s your tongue on top of your forehead.”’ Ours are genuine Jersey mosquitoes, and the story of the hunt that resulted in their capture is a volume in itself. Only a short volume, though, so don’t go. All But Two Missed Boat. We started for Jersey from the foot of West Forty-second street on the morning of a warm June day. Inthe party were Living- stone and Stanley, Martin Johnson, Col. Theo- dore Roosevelt and his brother Kermit, and Kermit’s brother Theodore, Roald Amund- sen, Neysa McMein, David Binney Putnam, Will Beebe, Mme. Schumann-Heink (Mr. Beebe and Mme. Schumann-Heink were to do the undersea work), Raymond Ditmars, a lit- tle girl from the chorus of ‘‘Rio Rita,” and myself. Of the party everybody except the little girl from the chorus and myself missed the boat, and fearing that public sentiment would be against having a little girl from a chorus go on a mosquito hunt, I sent her back and started out alone. The journey across the Hudson was un- eventful. I had had the foresight to include in my kit a good book and a piano, Knowing from my previous explorations that monotony \ KOS A 2D — | a Ed can never prevail if one has one’s books and one’s music. By slipping the deck steward a Confederate dollar, which he fortunately did not examine until we were at Hoboken, I managed to secure a good deck chair on the sunny side and immediately buried myself in my book, stopping only occasionally to thrum some little air on the piano. The passengers played quoits, the object of the game, which appears to be a great pastime aboard ship, being to see which play- er could hit me oftenest and hardest when- ever I started playing the piano. I play by ear, out of respect for Beethoven, who was deaf. At Hoboken I wage met by a party of native beaters, and after washing up we proceeded , immediately toward the Jersey marshes, of which the hospitable port authorities in New Jersey had given me the freedom. (“Take ’em,” said the port authorities, “and welcome!’’) After washing up again, we neared the swamps, and it was with a thrill that I heard a deep, booming, zooming sound which I recognized as the baying of a brace of bull mosquitoes locked in combat. It was the mating season. We had not expected such good fortune s0 soon, for the task of capturing a full-grown Jersey mosquito alive is sometimes a tedious process necessitating a great deal of patience and hard work, as I shall explain hereafter. However, it was not 20 minutes after we had left the tube at .Manhattan Transfer, after washing up, before we came upon the two bulls whose buzzing we had heard from afar. Ah, Fickle Sex! There they were, locked in mortal combat, while the fair object of their competition, a magnificently formed female mosquito, sat on a rock nearby buzzing nonchalantly. Ah, fickle sex! My beaters were disguised as mosquitoes, and I myself kept up a steady buzz in order to carry out the illusion, but the female was too alert for us, and in a trice, with a buzz of warning, she was off toward Rahway, look- ing like the Spirit of St. Louis as she vanished in the sky. The two locked bulls were now in a pretty predicament. There was no necessity for re- maining masked now, as the bulls could not escape, so my beaters unmasked. It was 12 o’clock, anyhow, and time to unmask. I stopped buzzing. The bulls forgot their com- bat and regarded us in a panic of fear. Boobi, my head heater, raised his bow and arrow and was about to dispatch one of the mosquitoes when something in the look that was in the poor creature’s eyes struck me with pity. Perhaps some reader who has seen the look in a dying mosquito’s eyes will know what I mean. “Stop!’’ I said to Boobi. mosquito alive.’ I raised a restraining hand. Boobi heard my command too late and, unforturmately or fortunately, I got the ar- row in the hand. I shall never forget the look of gratitude that came into that mosquito’s eyes as he saw my restraining hand stop the arrow that was speeding toward his heart. I never regretted the little accident.

So it has occurred to me that it would be a. good idea for me to tell them how to keep cool while working—how to keep cooler, in- deed, than it is physically possible to be while one has nothing to do but think about the heat. 3 Don’t Talk Heat. That last sentence gives the key to one- half of my philosophy about fooling the thermometer, for the most important thing of all is not to talk about the temperature— not to think about it any more than you can possibly help. I know a girl who used to. feel the heat ‘erribly, till one Summer when she started the hot weather by saying to all her friends, ‘‘Of course, I don’t suf- fer from the heat as ether people do—lI really feel my best when New Yerk gets to be around 90.” By tenstantly reiterating this, it came to be a fact-—at least to such a degree that she no Jonger dreaded tne dog- days as she used to do. And any ofe wio reads these lines can take a lezf out of her book. No, she wasn’t a Christian Scien- tist; she merely knew the value of mental suggestion. Eat the Right Food. But all the talk in the world won’t make you cool if you eat the wrong food and wear the wrong clothes. The wise will cnt out meat entirely—will lunch on light things such as fruit salads—will curb their desires for ice-cream sodas and similar cold drinks, substituting a great deal of plain cold water and an occasional drink of hot tea. This hot- drink business strikes the average American as being a very strange procedure, but it has medical approval behind it, as well as the custom of almost all foreigners of Eu- ropean or English extraction who have lived for years in the tropics. Wear the Right Clothes, When it comes to clothes, every one real- izes that those that constrict are a mistake— a tight corset, tight garters, even tight sleeves add to the feeling of heat. Hot colors make one feel hotter, too—bright reds and dark browns and so on. Black, too, is usually a mistake, although I know that some shops require it of their employes. White, of course, is the coolest of all, but custom does not sanction it in a metropolis. Pale neutral tones, such as gray or beige. in plain col- ors, are good, but printed chiffons and crepes in the smaller and more conventional pat- terns are most practical of all. Needless to FARQUHAR pas A, Even in an office, it is perfectly possible for the worker to keep cool and look cool, say, short sleeves are taboo in town, but long loose chiffon sleeves don’t add to the heat from one’s own standpoint, and they posi- tively look cooler than bare arms to those who sit in the same office with them. Other Little Tricks, There are other little things that can be done to make one feel cooler—keeping an extra pair of shoes in one’s desk; having a little bottle of one’s favorite perfume al- ways at hand for the dab behind the ears that adds so much to one’s morale and to the feeling one gives others of being cool; keeping the electric fan well oiled so that the droning buzz it makes won't do so much to suggest heat; having the fan placed cor- rectly, so that it takes and redistributes what- ever breeze there is from the window. The Home Fundamentals. But none of these things are of any use— yr of little use, let us say, if the fundamen- tals are not attended to before leaving the house. A cold bath in the morning is usual- ly neither as cooling nor as cleansing as 6 tepid bath—a liberal application of dusting powder adds to the feeling of personal well- being with which one dresses—the lingering whiff of good bath salts is a great help. To say that almost everyone needs a body de- odorant at one time or another is to state something that should be axiomatic, but a surprising number of otherwise perfectly nice girls don’t seem to recognize it as such. True, its use may not make them feel cooler, but every one else in the office would cease to dread the summer quite as much if some one would only convert them to the truth. The last thing I have to say is the most important of all. No one can feel cool, or even moderately well, whose internal plumb- ing is not functioning properly. This, of course, is important at all times of the year, but doubly so in the summer. Some dot- tors go so far as to say that no case of heat prostrations can occur unless it has been preceded by improper elimination. (Copsright, 1927. by Vogue.) V. P. RAILROAD LOSES MONEY BUT DOES A RUSHING BUSINESS ISHKILL, N. Y., boasts the only rai!- k road in the world that does a brisk business at hauling passengers and freight with never a cent of revenue and never a thought of such a thing. No board of directors convenes in dignified session to shake their heads over this deplor- able condition of affairs and consider a merger with some more successful system, for theré is no board of directors and the millionaire owner of the road is quite satisfied to operate at a total loss. This unique railroad is the V. P. R. R. (Vest Pocket Railroad), so called because it is narrower than any other narrow gauge railroad worthy of the name and about half- way between the toy trains that little boys delight to play with and the big trains with which financiers amuse themselves. W. Cecil Gage, wealthy resident of Fish- kill, is the owner of this miniature railroad and he originally had it built on his extensive estate to assist in the work of his farm. Some two miles of wooden track was laid connect- ing the fields with various farm buildings and with his mesidence. A locomotive and several work cars comprised the original investment in rolling stock and three stations were built at strategic points. Farmhands were taken to and from their work over the line, soil was hauled from one place to another, and produce ‘was shunted about with a speed, efficiency and economy that made the road profitable even though it, actually, had no income. The good people of Fishkill and guests at Mr. Gage’s estate were fascinated by the tiny railroad when it was being built and, more sv, when it was completed and the rolling stock made daily trips over the 2-mile circuit of track. They begged rides and Mr. Gage de- lighted to sit at the throttle and take them on personally conducted tours over his property. The fame of the little railway system spread rapidly and requests for rides became more numerous. So numerous, in fact, that Mr. Gage made up his mind there was nothing for it but to add a couple of passenger. cars to his equipment. Since this decision he has had to get several other ‘‘coaches’’ for the | accommodation of passengers whom he never charges fare and who ride the rails of the V. P. R. R. ‘‘just for fun.”’ During the winter, activity on the Vest Pocket Railroad is, of course, nothing much, but as soon as summer comes there ia a Pocket Railroad’s Five carloads of passengers enjoying a free ride on the Vest Pocket Rail- road. work cars temporarily pressed into pas- senger service. tremendous increase in patronage. Every one who gets a look at the smart little locomotive and its string of undersized cars wants a ride, and the Fishkill millionaire is nothing if not an accommodating fellow. He gets as much “kick”? as his ‘“‘déadhead’’ passengers out of rumbling over his private railway line in the cab of his engine. This engine does not reach to the shoulders of a person of normal! height, and the work cars and passenger coaches are built in proportion. “When the summer “‘travel’’ is heaviest, both the work cars and the coaches are pressed into service, and the youngsters are quite satisfied to squeeze themselves into cars sometimes filled with soil or farm pro- duce. : One ride over the system is enough to con- vince any one’ that the Vest Pocket Railroad is much more than a rich man’s plaything and that it is, for all its diminutive size, a real railroad. The engine is a powerful little piece of machinery and can whisk a train of five passenger-filled cars over the wooden rails at a surprisingly smart rate of speed. Sometimes Mr. Gage’s guests respectfully suggest that he slow down. The locomotive, when it is not in use, is kept in a tiny roundhouse in front of which is a real turntable on which the motive power of the road is easily handled. Mr. Gage is content to operate his unique railroad at a total loss, but he admits that he is worried at the steadily increasing patrome age that craves to ride on the world’s unique “cehoo-choo”’ train.

Try to indicate in the tures what you have received in the way of mental, physical and recreational benefit from living in the open. In an old school reader which the modern child never sees there was a story about three men who came back from a trip around the world. They all described that they saw “green fields, blue seas, blue skies, moun- tains, lakes, villages and cities, buildings and men of all lands.’’ One man described the sights in a bored voice and manner which made his listeners want to stay at home instead of starting on a long. wearisome journey; another put into it the emphasis of the sightseer and some plain old-fashioned “bragging” of how much more he had.seen than the ordinary stay-at-home, and the third put into the story exactly the same words, poetry; human understanding and gave the impression that he had learned much and wanted to learn more. So, when you go to camp or walk for a day or a few hours through the woods and fields, or idle away time in picnics and water sports, remember that all around you is a great book of poetry and prose, wisdom, beauty and even music from the soft notes of the birds and the whistling of the wind in the trees. Splash about in the water and laugh your heartiest; breathe deeply of the free air and try to learn something. Havea good time and try to help others to have one, too. Remember in camp that a strict following {rar stories and pic- The Fairies. (Awarded $1 Prize.)

Don’t be a spoil sport—go along with the rest. Don’t jeer and scoff if you swim or play tennis or can run faster than your neighbor—but help others to become more proficient. Don’t sulk or be unhappy if you lose in games; try to do better and get the pleasure out of the sport. The real sportsman likes to win, but above all, is a good loser. Don’t forget that you are only one in a group and that the rules and regulations are made for the group and not for an individual. And that laws must be obeyed. Most of the camps are “self-governed’’ and it is up to each individual to see that they are not selfishly governed. If you are not going to eamp and are stay- ing at home this summer, do not hesitate to be helpful if your services are needed there. Remember the great men and women of this Nation who formed the habit of work in their youth. Of course, youth, and espe- cially childhood, has a right which should never be taken away, of having wholesome pleasures and hours of play. But remember, “IT did a fine job of that,’’ means really more in the long run “than I had a fine time.”’ Even the most duty-burdened men and boys and women and girls can have a good time. In fact, it is noteworthy that our busiest men and women, who were the boys and girls of yesterday, know how to play best. The President of the United States, who has the cares of the country and often the world on his shoulders is a good player in his vacation time and takes as much pleasure as a boy in fishing parties.

She was tired, but she went quickly ts her task, which was to feed the animals. Marie was a poor Fretich girl who lived on the outskirts of a small village. She had just finished her tasks when she heard her mother calling her to breakfast. After she had ‘breakfast Marie started for the village school... The. school was a small hut which the peasants of the village had helped to build. The teacher was a kind man who took an interest in his pupils. Today, however, he felt more cheer- ful than usual and: was very pleasant to all. ‘“‘Children,’’ he said, “I have just received a letter from the director of the French schools, saying that we will have a big contest in which all schools will participate. Now, chil- dren, the school having the pupil that wins will get a prize of 100. francs and the pupil who wins gets a trip to our beautiful. capital free.”’ There were hardly any of the poor peasant children who had been to Paris and it took their breaths away when they heard the prize. The faithful pupils all took an interest in what the teacher said, but the lazy ones never even bothered. Marie knew she was not smart, but she also knew that if she studied hard enough she would at least have a chance. No one studied as hard as Marie; she never let her books go and often she was What lt Means to Be a Girl Scout. (Honorable Mention.) The Girl Scouts are well known. There are scouts all over the world. When Sir Robert Baden Powell formed the first troops of Boy Scouts, 6,000 girls enrolled, but as his project did not include girls, he asked his sister, Miss Baden Powell, to found a similar organization based on the Boy Scout laws, yet have activities and occupations proper for girls. Miss Baden Powell then founded the Girl Guides Organization. The first patrol of the Girl Guides in America were enrolled by Juliette Low in Savannah, Ga., March,’1912. In 1913 the national headquarters were established by Juliette Low, and Miss Edith Johnson became the national secretary. The name of the organization was then changed to Girl Scouts because the object was to promote the ten Scout laws. In order to be a Girl Scout a girl must be 10 years of age and must pass what is known as a Tenderfoot Test, which includes the following: Girl Scout promise, laws. motto, salute, allegiance to the flag, name of mayor of city, name of governor of. State, tie four knots, first and last verse of “‘Ths Star-Spangled Banner,” history of the flag, all of which are lots of benefit to us. The ten Scout laws are as follows: (1) A Girl Seout is loyal. (2) A Girl Scout’s honor is: to be trusted. (3) A Girl Scout’s duty is to be useful and help others. (4).A Girl Scout is a friend to all and a sister to every other Girl Scout. (5) A Girl Scout is courteous. (6) A Girl Scout is clean in thought, and deed. (7) A Girl Scout is a friend to animals. (8) A Girl Scout obeys orders. (9) A Girl Scout is cheerful. (10) A Girl Scout is thrifty. In order to be a true Girl Scout a girl must live up to.the laws and also the prom- ise, which is: 1. To do my duty try. 2. To help other people at all times. 3. To obey the laws of the Scouts. The Girl Scout motto is ‘“‘Be Prepared,’ which means to be ready to do her duty. When a Girl Scout shakes:hands with ar- word to God and to .my coun- virginia Koran pet vs y Bus! WeSs ec ree! niior 2 The Gire len Dance r “‘Children,' tion. scolded for not doing her work properly. At nights she sat up late burning a small tallow cage for a light. Thé ‘day of the contest came and all the pupils taking part assembled :in their best elothes to. go to a city not far away. Marie’s heart went twice as fast as it should. When they arrived many schools were ai- ready there, but they did not have to wait very long. There were five different tests, each one containing 30 questions. The examinations took all that day and half of the next. When they left for home many of them: had lighter hearts but some ‘were very serious. Marie was in the latter group. All the way home the wheels of the train kept repeating for Marie “I must win. I must win.’”’ Two weeks later the teacher received a letter containing a report of the winners. ’ he said, “I will now read the winners of the contest. First prize goes to Marie Corrot. The second ’ but no one heard him for the clapping and cheering which followed. / Marie rushed out from school and went to a small brook, which was her favorite spat, to enjoy the news she had just heard. That night the people of the village came out to celebrate Marie’s winning of the con- test. MARY KARTOFEL 103 Fourth street, southeast. (age 14), other Scout, they must shake with the left hand while the right hand is raised in half salute. The hand is always held upright ih saluting. There are many good things we learn by being a Girl Scout. . One is, ‘“‘the respect due to the American flag.’”” When the flag is passing by in a parade we must, if we are walking, halt and stand at attention, salut- ing till the flag has passed by. There are many more things we learn as the result of being a Girl Scout, such as cook- ing, sewing, darning, patching, Red Cross aid, the treatment of ivy poisoning, frost bite, care for the sick,: dress wounds and many other interesting things. All of these things we learn in the Scouts are well to Know and therefore it meang ‘a great deal to be a Girl Scout. VIRGINIA VEITCH. Troop 16, Ballston, Va. The Diary of a Pen. (Awarded $1 Prize.)
