The organization, Kelly said, got the idea of its name from the thirty-fifth chapter of Jeremiah in the Oid Testa- ment. In this chapter, it is related how Jonadab, son of Rechab, told a multitude to “drink no more. wine, neither ye nor your sons, nor your daughters, forever.” John C. Foster, sovereign chief of the Sons, explained that the organiza- tion was formed here in 1867 by Sam- uel C. Mills and five others, who sought to save the Hhife of a brilliant lawyer. who was “drinking himself to death.” The lawyer was saved, he said, and Mills, who himself haq been a drink- ing man, was later appointed a Police Court judge. John T. Smalicy, sovereign patriot of s chaplain, warned the yesteriay that “No drunkard enter the King.ion. of Heaven.” He himself, he said, was “going to hell as fast as whisky would take me” when he promised his mother, on her deathbed, that he would swear off ball- room dancing, gambling and drink. Smalley said that the Sons ought to work, not jamming something down men’s throats, but by “moral suasion.” The society, he said, was particularly anxious to enroll boys and young men and keep them away from “cussed drink.” Music was furnished at the ice cere- mony by the |oys’ band of the order, under John H. Chapman, and John crowd Elder, the society’s blind mascot, sang | the “Prisoner's Song.” Police Seize Liquor Ordered by Telephone Detective Dennis Murphy, of the Tenth Precinct, last night pleaded over the telephone for the delivery of a gal- lon and a half of whisky. “I wish you would get your orders in early,” said the voice at the other end of the wire. “This is no time to call.” After arranging for the delivery, Murphy and Detective James Spring- mann waited in front of a house in La- mont street until Ernest Creek, colored, 32 years old, 2213 Georgia avenue north- west, appeared carrying a suitcase, The detective stopped him and, according to Murphy, found three ‘half-gallon jugs of whisky in the grip. Creek was charged with transporting and illegal possession. J. E. TUCKER FREED BY ROVER’S ORDERS Action in Securities Company Head’s Case Still Veiled in Mystery.

The battle of Spout Run Bridge is over. Workmen's picks succeeded where dynamite failed and today the bridge, relic of an early date and ob- ject of a three-day legal combat, was crumpling as laborers pecked away at its staunch foundations. With all legal obstacles out of the way, J. C. Albright, division manager of the Virginia State Highway Com- mission, yesterday morning at 7 o'clock ordered workmen to set off the five sticks of dynamite planted in the stone foundations of the bridge, destruction of which is necessary to permit the widening of the Lee Highway between Rosslyn and the Glebe road. Every one within a radius of a mile of the bridge had been warned of the explosion that would accompany de- struction of the bridge. Workmen scurried to safety. The foreman shoved the detonator. But there was no ter- rific explosion. Instead there was just a sizale—a sound that resembled the explosion of a dampened firecracker. There were no flying rocks, the old bridge still stood. Peering eyes saw only a alight shake in the bridge's foundations. Warned of Explosions. Workmen placed more dynamite. There was another scurrying for safety. And then the switch was shoved. But still no destruction. The bridge had shaken a little bit more this time Dut it did not crumple. The construction company had agreed to blow the old bridge’ up so there was only one thing —place more dynamite. A third time the bridge withstood the blast and then, while spectators grinned, the foreman ord*red his men to get out their picks and shovels and go to work on the foundations. Five hours of picking brought results and workmen today plan to complete demolition of the bridge Corson & Gruman, the contractors who are doing the work have the high- way closed from Lyon Village and Vir- ginia avenue to the road leading to Thrifton, a distance of about 2,000 feet, and work on the construction of the bridge will be rushed.

eee aes NCW YORK, NOMINEE fd TOLD BY DONOVAN Henry Robinson, Banker, Is Among Guests Reporting Optimistically. OPPONENT OF JOHNSON _ FOR SENATE IS CALLER Head of Ticket Tells Plans to Depart Saturday on Fishing Trip. Stanford University, Calif., July 25 (A. P.).—W. J. Donovan, assistant to Attorney General Sargent, upon his Qrrival today at the home of Herbert Hoover said Mr. Hoover’s candidacy for President of the United States has found favor with many women in New York State and that they may be counted upon to throw their support to the Republican nominee. Donovan, who is a resident of New York, pre- dicted that Hoover will carry that State. | “Upstate New York is showing an unusul interest in this campaign,” said Donovan. “Many persons who usually do not vote have signified their pref- erence for Mr. Hoover. “In addition to.this, there is the vote of those women of the State who have shown marked preference for the Republican candidate.” Asked how the residents of Eastern States regard the outcome -of the California vote in the presidential lection, Donovan said: . “We take California for granted. The State has a cndidate and we look for strong support from the entire Pacific Coast.” ° Other Favorable Reports. Donovan's statement was the climax of reports Mr. Hoover heard during the Gay from visiting Republican leaders of California who told how favorable his candidacy is regarded in the West. Henry Robinson, Pasadena, Calif., Danker, a member of the Dawes com- Mission on reparations, was the first Calier at the Hoovef home. He Drought with him a report on the political situation in Southern Cali- fornia which he said he found most encouraging for Hoover's election. Harry Chandler, publisher of the Los Angeles Times, came up from the South by Airplane, landing within a mile of the Hoover home, where he Was a guest fer dinner. Mr. Chandler has been a supporter of the Republican nominee since he was first mentioned for the Presidency, and his visit, com- ing soon after that of Senator Hiram W. Johnson, who does not always agree with Mr. Chandler politically, was re- garded as significant of the solidarity of the State for the Republican candi- date. Another Republican, Representative Albert E. Carter, of the Sixth California DiStrict, called to pay his respects to the Republican standard bearer as did Raymond C. Brown, secretary of state of Hawall. Mr. Hoover did not receive the ‘corre- Spondents today, but they were told through George Ackerson, his secretary, about the preparations for the trip which Hoover will start on Saturday through one of California’s scenic areas, the redwood empire. The trip is regarded purely for its recreational side and it is expected that politics will be forgotten during the time the party is in the thickly wooded country. Leaves Early Saturday. Composed of Mr. Hoover’s personel ataff and Washington newspapermen, the party will leave Stanford early Sat- urday by automobile, ferry across the bay to Sausalito and then motor north, arriving on Bull Flat, a picturesque point on the Eel River on Saturday night. mn Sunday morning the party will motor into Eureka and continue on up to Crescent City. From this point the motor caravan will swing over across the State line into Oregon where a stop will be made at Grant's pass. This wil! be Mr. Hoover's first visit to Oregon, where he spent some of his [a ad FUNERAL DIRECTORS THOMAS R. NALLEY’S SON, M. J.

West Takes Oath As Interior Secretary | Work and 100 Friends Witness Installation—New Chief to Continue “Open Door” Policy in Conducting Affairs of Department. Roy O. West, of Chiwago, was sworn in as Secretary of the Interior yester- day while the man he succeeds, Dr. Hubert Work, and 100 or more friends and employes looked on. The oath was administered by W. Bertrand Acker, chief clerk of the department. Dr. Work, who resigned the office to manage the presidential campaign of Herbert Hoover, made what was re- garded as a significant remark when he introduced his successor yesterday. He said he hoped that Mr. West might serve as Secretary even longer than he himself had served. Dr. Work held the office for five years. His remark yesterday was taken to mean that he might use his influ- ence to have West kept in the Cabi- net in the event Hoover is elected. Following his installation, Secretary West announced that he would con- tinue the “open door” policy of his predecessor. As Secretary, Dr. Work had kept the doors of his office open at all times, and anybody with busi- ness to transact coulda walk in. “I am meeting the heads of tiie va- rious bureaus,” Secretary West said, in a statement, “and am inquiring as to the business of the office. Dr. Work and the officers oi the department have been most consiaerate and help- ful. L believe in the open-door policy in the transaction ol public business, and shall hope througr the cooperation of the present efficient organization to maintain the high standards which now prevail.’ Among the important matters fac- ing the new Interior head are the $125,000,.000 Boulder Dam _ project, which ‘is is to be checked over by a new board of engineers and geologists, and upon which West must pass be- fore Congress cor.venes; new reclama- tion ventures, including the $300,000,- 000 Columbia Basin project, and oil leases on public, lends. An investi- gation of the leasing of the Salt Creek field to the Sinclafr interests is to be made by a Senate committee this win- ; i ter. boyhood, since he was nominated the Presidency. From Grant’s pass the party will move down towards San “Francisco through the Sacramento Valley, reach- ing Brown’s camp near Yreka. On Tuesday morning the party will roll down to Mount Shasta, where an ovcr- night stop will be made. Resuming the trip on Wednesday morning, the party will motor through the Sacramento Valley to San Francisco, to arrive on Wednesday night. Indians Name Wilbur Minni-Wanci Itancan Bismarck, N.

ZEAL OF CRUSADERS HOPED FOR IN PLAN Bringing Out of Feminine Vote to Be Leaders’ Special Responsibility. The Eastern Republican national com- mitteewomen who are now scattering to their homes after a conference here heve the definite impression that it is their burden to get !nto the homes to get out enough votes to offset the ex- pected wet defections from the party. The loss of wet votes in the East and in large centers of other sections of the country now generally :s admitted in high Republican councils, although the more guarded spokesmen usually couple ‘this admission with the contention that the acquisition of dry votes wil] more than make up for the toss. But in the women’s conference und the talks they had with party leaders while here is seen the realization tht entirely new voting fields must be combed to make this a certainty. So far as can be learned, Chairman Work nor Representative Fort, of New Jersey, in their formal talks to the women behind closed doors mentioned prohibition by name, but they stress the “moral” issue of the campaign so much that none of the women went away in the dark as to just what they are to do. The women responsibility in the campaign such as went away, moreover, with a feeling of they have never experienced. Ornate Figures Heretofore, There has been all sorts of talk in past campaigns about getting out the full women's votes and women have been given more or less harmless places, ornate places, tn the campaign. AS a matter of fact, there wae not so much desire to get out the women’s yete, be- cause it Is an uncertain quantity, but the campaign was usually decorated with just enough women to attract this vote if it should come out. When Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, of Ken- tucky, vice chairman of the Republican national committee, first announced the call for national committeewomen here, there were those who thought it was the old ballyhoo being repeated, that the Hoover managers were just letting the women think they were really going to do somthing. But in view of what happened at the conference there is now no doubt but the Republicans are really looking to the women this year. They are going neither uncertain vote on the assumption. that Mr. Hoover will be the one to profit. So the women are to play a serious part in the Republican campaign. Viattered by Responsibility. They left here flattered over xhe re- sponsibility with which they were charged and with sort.of a crusading zeal. Those who took part in the meeting here were, of course, those who have come to dabble in organized poli- tics. But they are to get away from that in thelr work. They are to go out as missionaries organizing Hoover home- women's clubs, and if they do as well as the efficient men organizers in Mr. Hoover's entourage they will in a.rea- sonable time have the housewives dis- cussing Hoover as they exchange eggs. salt and butter back and forth over the fence. The more practical men of the East- ern leadership are still hopeful, of course, that tn Mr. Hoover's acceptance address pronouncement on prohibition they will find campaign bits that can be juggled back and forth, but ines- capably underlying their hope in this respect is the realizetion that regard- less of what Mr. Hoover says or does not say he is likely to be the dry of this campaign and Goy. Smith the wet. So they will weloome the activity of the women as much as did the high party moguls here. : The fact that Mr. Work and. Mr. Fort sought to impress the committee- women with the moral phases of the campaign is taken, too, backsliding, from the chairman's statement of a few weeks ago that prohibition would not be an issue. It probably is Dr. Work’s view that the men can render better service by taiking other points, but while they are doing this, it is the present plan for the women to be giv- ing the New York Governor's wet views down the country in that rather gos- sipy way they have. Because intimate talks are to be the cheap weapon of the women workers. Some of them are, of course, to appear before audi- ences and before the microphone, but the main effort of their campaign will be toward getting in on the family hearth and influencing the women whose interest in politics hertofore has been confined to the tit-bits they pick- ed up from the menfolk. Vanity Boxes as an Appeal. lle the campaign has not yet taken up any such definite shape, it is taken that as a foregone conclusion Hoover vanity boxes and Hoover other little do-daddies that might appeal to women will make their appearance. Mrs. F. Louis Slade, of New York City, was the only one to receive a definite appointment out of the meet- ng here. She ts to be the liaison officer tween the organized women and the unorganized women. She will be the contact between the small groups of home women on the one side and the national, State and local workers or the politicians on the other. ~* As Mrs. Hert said, “this is a new and ry ge ay ‘step in campaign organiza- on.” ? “But new conditions in politics re- quire new methods,” she explained. Mrs. Slade, she said, has always been ai: active Republican in New York City, but she has never before been identi- fied with the Republican national com- mittee and the national organization of women voters.

Members of these clubs will in turn tour the country to or- ganize the “apron clubs.” “Women put on their aprons for Hoover in the war,” sald Mrs. Dupuy yesterday, “and they will do it again.” Printed pledges, modeled after the war-time pledges of food curtailment, will also be circulated among the wom- en, 100 signatures to be attached to each as a promise “to vote and: work for Hoover.” SIMMONS RESIGNS AS COMMITTEEMAN CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. cept that he was opposed to him.

Albany, N. Y., July 25 (A.P.).—Gov. Smith, whose pet diversions are swim- ming and golf, decided today on a few days’ vacation at the seashore where he will get plenty of both. Anxious to have an “absolute rest,” he announced that he would pass the week-end at Good Ground, on the south fringe of Long Island, and that during his stay there a tight Ifd would be clamped on politics. Although he plans to stop off in New York Friday night for a chat with Gov. Ritchie of Maryland, the Demo- cratic presidential nominee emphasized today that he didn't intend to have his stay at the seaside spoiled by pollt- ical conferences. He even is de- termined. to dismiss from his mind the acceptance speech which he will de- liver here four weeks from tonight, and will do no work on it while out of town, Except for two brief excursions to New York, the governor has passed his time in Albany since the Houston con- vention. He sees no prospect of an extended vacation before his notifica- tion on August 22, and he had been urged by members of his family to get away for a few days’ play before he gets down to, the grind of shaping up his speech of acceptance.

Realizing that to ge into New York means demands from all sides for conferences which h* hépes to avoid, the nominee, perspiring in the heat of another hot Albany day. confided to newspaper men ‘shat he was going away, although he remarked, to have it get out that he will be in New York “will be the devi on me.” “I hate to think that I’m building up & merry-go-round for myself that will make Barnuim’'s circus look like a little side show,” he remarked, as he called for time tables and figured out what train he would take from Al- bany. “That looks like il,’ he said finally. pointing to the schedule of the “One forty” which would get him into the Grand Central Station about 5 o'clock | Friday evening.

Norris, Celaware. Bond Debate Is Avoided. The debate over the question of the bonding of attorneys, which was ex- pected to furnish the verbal pyrotech- nies at the fiftieth anniversary conven- tion of the association, was postponed for at least a year at the opening scs- sion of the convention today. Because of the differences of opinion existing among the 1,500 attorneys, judges and officials who are delegates to the convention, the proposed rule which would forbid the bonding of at- torneys was shelved until next year. Many of the delegates appeared to re- sent the bonding of an attorney's in- tegrity, while others favored bonding as a safeguard against shady legal prac- tices. The convention was brought to order by Francis Rawle, of Philadelphia, a former president and the only living charter member of the American Bar Association. Other Lands Represented. The lawyers represented the bar and the bench of the United States, Canada and several foreign nations, One of them, the Hon. Hugh Kennedy, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Irish Free State, had traveled for 17 days to deliver an address which will take, at most, half an hour. The principal event of the opening aession of the convention was the an- nual message of the president, Silas H. Strawn, of Chicago, who took as his topic “50 Ycars Progress in Law” Summarizing the legislation of the past half century, Strawn explained the sociological and economic condi- tions which had acted as conditioning factors, and discussed the results of the legislation. He voiced a strong plea for law observance, pointing out an alarming increase in crimes of viol- ence during the 50-year period. | Prohibition should be considered as a social problem, not a political issue, be said, and enforcement or amend- ment and not nullification offered the only possible solution of the liquor question. Causes of Crime Increase. The six general causes:of crime in- crease were given by Mr. Strawn as follows: “j.-The increase and development in the means of communication, hard roads and high-powered automobiles making the ‘getaway’ easy. “2—The vastly increased wealth of eur citizens and especially of the crim- imal classes, enabling them to buy fast motors and expensive firearms. .“8—Organized crime, which enables the underworld to make liberal con- tributions to political campaigns and te exert a powerful. influence in poli- tics. “4-—Delay in the apprehension and speedy punishment of criminals, due in part to the leniency and paltering of political judges and in part to our too liberal laws. We do not give enough attention to the selection of our judges and prosecuting attorneys. “5—To the apathy and indifference of our best citizens toward their duty as citizens. Those best qualified to serve as jurors seek to avoid the serv- ice because of its discomforts or be- cause they dislike to leave their busi- nesses. “6—Unrestricted traffic in firearms.” Debate on Dry Amendment. The eighteenth amendment, Mr. Strawn said, has the distinction of be- ing the only one whose validity has been the sybjéct of direc* attack. “Notwithstanding decisions of the courts the eighteenth amendment and ite enforcing legislation are still the subject of much acrimonious debate,” he said. “It is asserted by some, who should be in a position to know, that prohibition has been of incalculable bénefit to our industries by reducing absenteeism and improving efficiency and production. Also that it has greatly promoted the general welfare and increased the savings of our labor- people. “On the other hand, the crime sur- vey shows that crimes of violence, especially in urban centers, committed lgrgely by bootleggers and beer runners, have increased to an alarming extent. It is asserted that existing conditions conduce to a growing disregard of law, especially by our young people, to an extent that is appalling. “Many of our representative citizens who would not think of violating any other law continuously violate the Vol- stead act, or conduce to its violation by buying contraband liquor from bootleggers, thereby enriching the un- derworld beyond the dreams of avarice,” Capital Man Suicide In New York Hotel - New York, July 25.—A man reégister- ng a5 Levy, of Washington, D.

This brought to 21 the total killed in gang feuds within a year. Russo and Longo were killed and their associate, Jack Griffin, was dan- gerously wounded by a machine gun volley directed on them in a vacant lot in Weliston, a suburb. Their assail- ants escaped in two automobiles. Two hours and a half later, in the produce store of Spicuaza & Pace, on “commis- sion row,” in St. Louis, James Pace and Vincent Spicuzza, partners, and Joseph Spicuzza, a clerk, were shot and slightly wounded. They were fired on by three gunmen, who escaped in an automobile. Vincent Spicuzza is an/uncle of the Vincent Spicuzza, who was killed near Chicago at the opening of feuds be- tween the Giannola and Russo fac- tions: Longo and Griffin were among those accused, with William Russo, a brother of James, of the killing of Alphonse Palazzolo. which was follow- ed by the slaying of Vito Giannola, fac- tion leader. The three victims of the first shoot- ing are supposed ,to have been lured into the lot, where they were shot from the half-open door of a shed. Griffin was taken to a physician’s office by three men who placed him in a chair and left hurriedly without , volunteering any explanation. Three automatic pistois and a re- volver were found on or near the bodies. Thelr automobiles were nearby. A case of 50 sticks of dynamite and &@ number of dyfhliamite caps and 20 feet of fuse were found in the shed. This led officers to believe the shed may have been the base of operations for numerous bombings recently. G. 0. P. DECLARATION BY CUTTING SOUGHT New Mexico Chairman Asks Party Pledge Before Nomi- nation Is Made. Albuquerque, July 25 (A.P.).—The Albuquerque Journal says that James G. McNary, chairman of the Republi- can State executive committee, at a meeting of the State central commit- tee in Santa Fe suggested that Senator Bronson Cutting be asked to declare that he is a Republican and pledge himself to the support of the prin- ciples of the Republican party before the Republican State convention can consistently nominate him to succeed himself in the United States Senate. Col. Cutting was appointed to the Sen- ate early this year to succeed the late Senator A. A. Jones, a Democrat. The appointment was made by Gov. R. C. Dillon, a Republican. Mr. Cutting is publisher of the Sante Fe New Mexican. The Journal quotes McNary as de- claring that Cutting is eminently fitted for the senatorial office, but since his appointment he has made no state- ment as to his party affillations, and has been given Nation-wide publicity as a man who is entirely independent of party lines and who.recognized obli- gations to no party.” After an executive session commit- teemen declared that no action has been taken on Mr. McNary’s suggestion. Nude Bathing Legal, Sea Bright Learns Special to The Washington Post. Sea Bright, N.

At all oth- er times it’s free—or will be yntil Sat- urday, when an ordinance which went into effect December 26, 1896, becomes inactive. Nobody had ever heard of the ordi- nance at Sea Bright until seven girls were reported to have taken a midnight dip and told a patrolman to “go look at the law.” The patrolman, greatly agitated, discovered the statute, which says: “No person shall bathe in the wa- tér in or bordering this borough in a state of nudity between the hours of 6 a. m. and 9 p. m., and any persons of- fending this ordinance will be subject to a fine of $2.” Councilmen rushed through a new ordinance, effective Saturday.

NAME OF NEW LABOR SECRETARY IS AWAITED Agrarians Denounce Resigned Official as Disloyal and A. F. of L. Tool. ————— Mexico City, July 25 pects of Mexico (A.P.).—Pros- emerging peacefully from its present turbulent political situation were seen by well-informed observers today as more than a week passed since the assassination of Presi- dent-elect Alvaro Obregon without ma- jor disturbances. However, the situation continues sur- charged with uncertainty and predic- tions as to the future are considered unjustified. Some ill-considered act might at any moment upset all calcula- tions. Supporters of the late Gen. Obregon undoubtedly are in full control of the situation, and if they remain united can dominate erents of the tmmediate future. It is they, probably, who will decide who is to be the next President of Mexico, Conferences were in prog- ress today between Ricardo Topete, leader of the Obregonista bloc in con- gress; Aurelio Manrique and Antonio Soto y Gama, the latter two Agrarian leaders, and others, with a view to de- termining where the Obregonista sup- port for the presidency will be thrown. Bitterness Is Danger. It seemed inevitable that either Pres- ident Calles would be asked to succeed himself as provisional president under certain constitutional arrangements which might be made or that Aaron Saenz, governor of Nuevo Leon, would be favored. Perhaps the most dangerous element in the situation is the bitter feeling against Luis Morones, resigned secre- tary of labor, by some of the Obregon SADDENED BY FAILURE | resignation group. There have been promiscuous charges that Morones and his laborite | aids created the “psychological back- ground” for the assassination of Gen Obregon. It is yet to be legally determined, however, who, if anybody. besides the actual assassin—Jose de Leon Toral— is responsible for the deed. Considerable speculation has arisen as to whom [resident Calles will ap- point to succeed Morones. Among those mentioned its Manuel Perez Tre- | vino, governor of the state of Coahuila, | and a former secretary of commerce and labor. The brother of Gen. Obregon’s assas- sin, Jesus de Leon Toral, an officer of the federal army stationed at Vera Cruz, was released by police today after | a short stay in prison.

President Calles, suffering from a slight cold and weary from the strain 0° the day and night work which he has been doing since Gen. Obregon was killed, transacted all his business at his private residence. His associates said that he was not really ill, but that the combination of a slight indisposi- tion and the strain under which he has _ hopes. | after ,}) chaplain. been laboring ‘made it advisable for him to stay away from his office. Many movements are afoot to per-| petuate Obregon’s name. Several mon- | uments are to be erected to him in) Mexico City and other municipal cen- ters, and the names of a number of streets and avenues, and even a small town or two, are to be changed to Obregon. Innumerable rumors were current to- day regarding Morones. One was that he had escaped to the United States by airplane. Reports received in New York that he had been wound- ed on the Sunday before the assassina- tion could not be verified. If any at- tacks have been made on him they have been kept sécret. Calls Morones Traitor. Raphael Mallen, one of the agrarian leaders, asked to explain the Morones- Obregon feud and the dislike of the agrarians for the laborites, replied: “Morones wanted to be president and wanted to be a political power. That Started it. Morones organized the city workers, Obregon organized the farm- ers. These groups do not have common interests and they became opposing groups. “The Agrarians regard Morones as the mouthpiece in Mexico of the American Federation of Labor, the Mexican vice- roy of Gompers and Green, and there- fore a disloyal Mexican. “Obregon did not have connections with farmer organizations outside otf Mexico, He was not a traitor. He re- pressed Mexicans only. “That's why Obregon’s farmer follow- ers opposed and oppose Morones’ town workers.” Thanking the military chiefs for their’ support during the present polit- ical crisis, President Calles sent them this telegram: “At this moment when a criminal hand armed by the Catholic clergy has plunged the whole nation into grief, it is greatly consoling to witness, from the leading army chiefs to the soldiers of lowest rank, thet all are inspired by the same révolutionary principles and fully conscious of their duties having re- sponded like one man to my call, with their patriotic and dignified attitude, they show that not in vain have we faced together trying timés, accom- plishing the complete moralization of our glorious institution.” VARE VOTE TOTALED AT NOON, IS CHARGE Committeemen Cast Ballots for Absentees, Senator Waterman Is Told.

CANTERBURY QUITS: VORK ARCHBISHOP TO BE SUCCESSOR Primate of English Church Is the First to\ Resign; Out on November 12. OF REVISED PRAYER BOOK Began Career as Curate; Was Subalmoner to Queen Victoria for Time. London, July 25 (A.P.).—Official an- nouncement was made tonight that the Archbishop of Canterbury, primate of all England, has resigned. It is the first time in the history of the archsec of Canterbury that the archbishop has resigned. his predecessors having died in office. The announcement stated: “The king with great regret received information that the Archbishop of Canterbury was desirous of resigning. His majesty, on the recommendation of the premier, appointed a commission consisting of the Archbishop of York, the Bishops of London, Durham and Winchester to receive the resignation. The com- mission reported their acceptance of the resignation, to take effect Novem- ber 12, and this was approved by his majesty.” It is a foregone conclusion that the Archbishop of York will be the pri- mate’s successor, but it has not been decided as yet who will succeed the Archbishop of York and other conse- quential changes Golden Wedding Date. It is noteworthy that the date of the is the date of the arch- bishop’s golden wedding, for he was married on November 12, 1878. The resignation of the archbishop, who, before his elevation in 1903, was the Most Reverend Randall Thomas Da- | vidson, Bishop of Winchester, had been expected for some time. The arch-| bishop, who is 80 years old, had a long | and distinguished career in the church, | saddened in recent months by the re- | jection of the revised alternative prayer | book by the house of commons. He} recently visited the king at Bucking- ham Palace and discussed with his majesty the position created by Parlla- ment’s rejection of the prayer book, and it was noticed then that his face keenly showed the destruction of his The archbishop began his career, Oxford, as curate of Dartford, Kent. He married the daughter of Archbishop Tait, of Canterbury, and served for a period as private secretary to that prelate He was sub-almoner to Queen Victoria in 1882 and later served as her domestic He is the author of many religious books and is a ‘rustee of the British Museum. Disestablishment Seen. In the controversy which surrounded consideration of the revised prayer book, the Archbishop of Canterbury necessarily held a central position. Not long ago he declared to the church as- sembly: “It is a fundamental principle that the church—that is, the bishops to- gether with the clergy and the laity— must in the last resort, when its mind has been fully ascertained, retain its inalicnable right, in loyalty to Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, to formu- ulate its faith in him and to arrange the expression of that holy faith in its form of worship.” Aithough the archbishop qualified his statement by saying he did not belicve the principle of the church's right to formulate its faith and forms of wor- ship incompatible with its national position, his statement has been pub- licly interpreted to represent a step in the direction of disestablishment. Already for many years a group tn the Church of England, usually com- posed of Anglo-Catholics, has been working to cut the church from_ the state. They believe the church will have a new lease of life if it stands alone on its own feet without the assistance and without the interference of the state, Disestablishment, however, is a revo- lutionary step, and it could not be made without much deliberation, for it would bring many changes in both the ecclesiastical and national constitution.

OTHER EFFORTS GO ON London, July 25 (A.P.).—Despite the lapse of 60 days since the dirigible Italia crashed on the ice near Foyn Island and of 37 since Roald Amund- sen with five companions in a French seaplane was swallowed by the Arctic silences, efforts to obtain trace of these missing men continues apace. The third Russian ice ship to be as- signed to the search was given her or- ders today. The vessel is the Sedov. The Soviet rescue commission in Mos- cow ordered her commander to explore the southernmost points of Franz Josef Land and then push northwestward. In taking this course the Russians are agreeing with Gottfried Hansen, a Norwegian naval officer and explorer, who recently advanced the idea that the Amundsen party may have landed safely in the region of Franz Josef Land. This is far east of the Spitzber- gen area, where previous searches have been concentrated. Commander Han- sen said that if Amundsen had man- aged to come down in that region he might not be heard from for several months. There is plenty of game there on which the party could subsist. While the Sedov is heading for this | new area of search, the Krassin, which /made an enviable record of rescues around Spitzbergen, will be en route to northern Norway for repairs. The sturdy 10,000-tonner suffered damage to her propeller by bucking the heavy ice floes through which she forced her way to the Nobile camp. Efforts to repair the damage at Kings Bay failed ecause Of lack of proper equipment. Berlin, July 25 (A.P.).—Erich Stoll. German news reel operator, who went to Spitzbergen to take pictures of the Italla rescue operations, is quoted . in |a Mittag Am Zeitung dispatch from Stockholm as saying there were fre- quent differences between Pilot Chukh- novsky, Russian filer aboard the Kras- sin, and Capt. Filippo Zappi, one of the men rescued with the Malmgren group. Stoll said the differences were chiefly over Capt. Zappl’s insistence that pho- tographs taken by the Chukhnovsky plane, which originally discovered the walking party, be developed immediate- ly, whereas Chukhnovsky preferred to keep the negatives until better develop- ing conditions were available. Chukhnovsky insists that on the day he first saw the group there were three men on the ice floe. two of them stand- ing, one lying on the floe, as if dead.

A new sedan, which, police said, an- swered the description of the car driven by the Booths when they visited Sim- mons in a Lake City tourist camp Mon- day night, was found on the streets here yesterday morning. Detectives have maintained a constant watch over the machine, but no one has claimed it. Witnesses said they saw a man and woman leave the car early yestefday, stand on a street corner for a few min- utes and then enter a restaurant. Police said several persons reported they overheard a conversation between the couple during’ which the woman pleaded with her companion to leave the city, but he declined, saying they were penniless and did not have suffi- client money to buy gasoline. “Well, we will ride until the gaso- line gives out and then take to walk- ing,” the woman was quoted.

Hollywood, Calif., July 25.—The main streets of Hollywood have been thrilled a half dozen times lately by police cavalcades swooping around on raids. One raid in the 7000 block on Haw- thorne avenue, near the Western Hotel and theater headquarters of elite Hollywood, netted more than $50,000 in liquors in a sixteen-room house, which had been fitted up as an all- night gathering place for fashionable parties. A truck load of bottled stuff was confiscated at a place called the Studio Cafe, in the shadow of the Fox film plant. This place had been fitted out inside like a Tia Juana cafe, It was filled with screen players, men and women, when the police broke in. A third place, the Richelieu Cafe, hid its liquor in secret walls, but police found the combination. A fourth big raid was made yester- day in Sunset boulevard. This was the gambling headquarters for movie players, according to the police. The raiders removed a truck full of gam- bling paraphernalia. The raid was due, it was said, to complaints of. film pro- Jj ducers. SECRET RADIO PLANT ARMED LIKE ARSENAL Canadian Police Discover Rifles and Dynamite in Unlicensed Station. Quebec, July 25 (A.P.).—The mystery of a powerful radio station which in- terfered with the reception of programs from licensed stations in the United States and Canada has been solved, but another mystery in connection with it, today threatened international com- plications. Investigators from the department of justice discovered the unlicensed radio station in a house in Sillery, a Quebec suburb, and also a large quantity of dynamite and a stock of rifles. The radio station, they said, was capable of communicating with European capitals. Auguste Nelna, 64, and his son, Ar- sene, 21, were arrested and charged with illegal possession of explosives. Arsene also was charged with the theft of radio equipment. The two pleaded guilty and were held without bail. Arsene, police said, was born in Lemberg, but has been a resident of Quebec for nine- teen years. White House Terrace Undergoing Repairs Strengthening the upper part of the end of the west terrace of the White House was begun yesterday by work- men of the Office of Public Buildings and Public Parks. The bulging of the masonry, officials of that office said, is apparently due to expansion of steel beams in the roof of the terrace. This part of the structure will be entirely torn out and rebuilt, and tests will be made to determine whether similar conditions prevail in the east- ern wing of the ite House.

Opponents of the naval authoriza- tion bill, generally known as the. cruis- er bill, are planning to make use of the new anti-war treaty at the next ses- sion of Congress to defeat this measure. The cruiser bill, which passed the House last session but which was biocked in the Senate, would authorize the construction of 15 new cruisers and one aircraft carrier. The estimated cost would be $274,000,000. Senator Hale, chairman of the naval affairs committee, made many efforts toward the close of last session to force the bill to a vote in the Senate, but he found himself blocked. The progressive group on the Republican side, backed by a number of other senators, both Democrat and Republican, opposed the bill and deliberately maneuvered to nave it caught in the jam toward the close of the session and held there. In this they were successful. Hale Still Confident. However, when the session closed, Senator Hale felt confident he would be able to force the bill to vote and passage in December. He intends to bring the measure up at the earliest opportunity anu to keep it before the Senate, if possible, until voted on. Sen- ator Hale las all along felt confident the bill would pass if brought to a vote In the closing weeks of the last ses- sion, the insurgents who opposed the cruiser bill announced their purpose to carry on the fight in the short ses- sion and prevent passage of the meas- ure. That was befor> there had been much progress on the antiwar treaty. When Congress meets in December, the Senate will face the question of ratifying the antiwar treaty and of passing a bill to authorize @ greater navy. This situation will exactly suit the opponents of the naval bill. They will take the position that in view of step toward renunciation of war taken by the powers there is less need for additional cruisers than ever. Favored bv President. What is expetced here is that a spec- tacular struggle will be waged over the naval bill, with an effort by. the opposition to filibuster against any final vote. In the short session, it is not very difficult to block a vote and hence it is by no means assured the naval authorization measure can be forced to a roll call, Failure of the cruiser bill to pass the Senate will be a deep disappoint- ment to the American Navy. The Pres- ident and Secretary Wilbur favor ade- quate money for the Navy and look favorably on the cruiser bill. — Tunney-Heeney Battle To Be Broadcast by WRC Preliminaries for Championship Fight to Go on Air at Eight o’Clock Tonight—Main Bout Will Begin About 8:45. \ WRC will be one of the many sta- tions throughout the country tonight to give listeners a full account of the Tunney-Heeney championship bout from Yankee Stadium at New York at 8 o'clock.

Secretary Kellogg announces that the United States is ready to negotiate a new tariff treaty with the Nationalist government of China. The basis of the proposed treaty will be recognition of the principle of national tariff autonomy and reciprocal removal of all discriminatory treatment of commerce as compared with the treatment accorded to the commerce of any other country. The treaty is to be negotiated by the American Minister, with representatives of the Nanking gov- ernment. The latter, on July 11, advised Minister MacMurray that it had decided to appoint plenipotentiaries to negotiate the treaty, and requested the United States to take like action. The decision made by Secretary Kel- logg is of vital importance, not for tariff reasons, but because it is the first taken by any of the great powers toward recog- nition of the complete independence of China under the Nationalist government. The new treaty, if made, will have a struay effect in China as well as abroad, on account of its recognition by the United States of the stability of the nationalist regime and of the right of China to deal as an equal with other na- tions. “A new and unified China is in process of emerging from the chaos of Civil war and’turmoil,” says the American note. The prompt recognition of this fact, first by ordering the withdrawal of a large force of Marines, and next by announcing a readiness to negotiate a new tariff treaty, will doubtless convince the Chinese government and people that the United States is unselfish in its friendship for China. “We do not be- lieve in interference in their internal af- fairs,” is another striking passage of the Kellogg note. The contrast of American policy with that of certain other powers in dealing with China is very apparent. When the strongest nation in the world extends its hand to the new Chinese gov- ernment it can not be expected that other powers will continue to deal with China as if it were incapable of managing its own internal affairs. +The new govern- ment may be weak, as compared with the great powers, but it is strong in hav- ing put an end to civil war and in enlist- ing the loyal support of the Chinese na- tion. As to Manchuria, a problem is pre- sented that must work itself out, but even this problem is made easier by the manifestation of loyal friendship toward China on the part of the United States. The Chinese nation is entitled to sov- ereignty over Manchuria, and in the long run this title must be respected. Japan’s rights can be adjusted in harmony with Chinese sovereignty. There is no war- rant for suspecting that Japan intends to dispute China’s title, notwithstanding the somewhat bellicose remarks of Japan- ese military men. These men do not nec- essarily express the sentimnts of the Jap- anese government. The United States of course has no part to play in the ad- sustment of differences between China and Japan, and is the disinterested friend of both, but nevertheless it stands upon the principle to which all the great pow- ers have agreed, viz, respect for the terri- torial integrity of China.

There they set up-their household gods and their sauerkraut kegs, blissfully unaware that they were mere borrowers of Asia’s choicest ichor and not the inventors thereof. They ex- perimented with the elusive mixture, finally achieving that masterpiece of the culinary art, sauerkraut and turkey, which has been the mainstay and keystone of the Keystone State from time immemorial. Some investigators hold that sauerkraut found its way out of Asia through the Crusaders and not through the northern route infested by the Alemanni. They say that God- frey, of Boulogne, captured sauerkraut in his forays against the Paynims, arid was more than repaid by it for all his labors. The Franks, it is said, carried sauerkraut as a precious trophy from the Holy Land long before the tribes in German forests had shed their breechclouts. Far be it from us to stir up another conflict between Germany and France, especially on an issue that can never be decided, whatever the expenditure of blood and treasure; but before the misunderstanding develops into a casus belli the sauerkraut mystery should be un- veiled. Let us have peace—and sauerkraut; but let us have sauerkraut anyhow. INTER-AMERICAN HIGHWAY. If the Inter-American Highway, long talked about, shall ever become a fact, it will be be- cause of practical rather than sentimental rea- sons. The project has now been advanced to the point of expert investigation and of ‘nter- change of views between the various countries of the hemtsphere through adoption of a fa- voring resolution by Congress. The practical viewpoint is that proposed for it by the newer air routes, which are being developed for the | purpose of interlinking all America in a €#ys- tem of communication and traffic. sponsor the highways proposition contend that a surface highway would serve the ends oi air | travel, by providing practical landings for airships all along its course. In this they are taking a cue from birds of passage, which, at least some of the waterfowl, follow the courses of rivers in their overland travel, so that they have these both for guides and for providing unimpeded flight. Here, then, may develop a linking up of surface utility and which give to the highway a character that has not been advanced as a constructive argu- for roads generally. It is interesting air service as. yet ment to note that the proposed highway would be inasmuch as in very early times there is believed to have been in use a series of linked-up trails made by earliest denizens of the New World, reaching from Canada to South America. the MAGIC OF CHEMISTRY.

Yet there are now annually pro- duced 100,000,000 tons of corn and 60,000,000 tons of cereal straw, to say nothing of the unnumbered tons of cotton seed hulls, flax and other residues awaiting the magic of chemistry. Beside denatwgred alcohol, for which there is an ever-increasing demand, cereal straw may be made to yield carbon, straw tar, illum- inating gas, acetic acid and methanol, by set of methods; by other methods, stalks and istry and Soils, it may be made to yield xylose, furfural, oxalic acid, paper and strawboard. What is true of this is true as well of the other waste materials of the farm. The sorcery by which this all may be done is the sorcery, of market value. When the indus- tries are created that can make use of the formulas, the formulas await them. Some industries have already entered the fleld, such as the chocolate industry.’ Cotton seed hulls are in vast accumulations, yet this material, according to the Bureau of Standards, contains nearly 49% per cent of crude protein. It thus appears that. the American farmer may be treading acres of diamonds and the man with the hoe may become the magnate of the morrow. SUICIDES IN JAPAN. A very serious phase of the labor problem is reported from Japan. The surplus of fe- males creates a difficult economic situation. Women are competing with men even in the lines of hard labor. They can be seen in Tokyo driving piles for the foundations of modern steel buildings, shoving barges through the city’s canals and in other tasks which could hardly be styled normal employment for the sex. | z In all these numerowts avenues of employ- ment the women draw lower scale of pay than the men demand, so that the employment agencies draft the women, for whose services they can turn over a quick commission. Back of the whole dreary situation is seen the ominous increase of suicides among men. Against 664 men who took their lives in 1924 is to be placed 849 who killed themselves through despair in 1925. Employment agents tour the rural districts, making house-to-house visits, falsely setting forth the opportunities offered for remunerative labor. They are all-inelusive in their activities and clerks and stenographers as well as unskilled female laborers are recruited by them. Hence the rate of pay is kept down-and the conditions of labor are those of a great overplus of workers in all directions. As the women survive better in the contest the men are driven to a corner and the suicide records reach ever-growing totals. : : a Glass manufacturers, in convention in ‘At- lantic City, say that “production of whisky glasses has multiplied to a figure that is startling.” This undoubtedly is explained by craze for antiques. pa a In the old days marriage usually ended courtship.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Two attacks upon the “talkies” have ap- peared in The Post of late. One from “Artists” and the other from~*“Foreign Film Men.” I am but a disinterestcd observer and listener, holding no brief for any firm or producer. The “talkies” have up until recently been disappointing. But “at least two performances have within the month been given at one of our local theaters which should convince any fair-minded person that talking from the screen can be made so effective‘as to prom- ise a revolution in moviedom. Those who speak of this as a “fad” can not forget that in the beginning of the movie industry this term was com- monly used concerning it. As a test of the atmosphere in two of our promi- nent local movie houses, I visited this week on a very hot day, one where yawning spaces unoccupied had promise of better things, for the screen. was offering prizes to children—evidently to give at least the show of a “house.” On the same day, the “talkie” on the same street had an : itelligent audi- ence of adults, hilariously enthusiastic over the marvelous vocalization of a well-known screen actor, The serious objection to the “talkie” has not been as yet noted, if l am a judge.

In fact, no matter what part such a man has to play, his presence on the screen makes him the real “star.” Alec Francis speaks like one talking for the first time through a “mike.” Of all the women who have thus far ‘‘spoken” from the screen, Lois Wilson is the only one whose voice will make a success as a “talkie.” J.

Providing for a more effective police patroling system in the suburban areas of the District, Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, superintendent of police, yesterday or- dered nine new automobiles into service in four precints, To the automobile patrol forces al- ready in the various precincts, Maj. Hesse added one more car to the Elevénth Precinct, two cars to the Twelfth Precinct, six privates and two automobiles to the Thirteenth Pre- cinct and one car to the Fourteenth Precinct. An automobile patrol is composed of three policemen. Under the new sys- fem two foot-patroled beats are abolished in the Eleventh Precinct and four in the Twelfth Precinct. Members of the new patrol system will be required to report to the station houses every 30 minutes, so that every locality in the precinct will be covered The motor patrolmen will have @* cover every road and street in their respec- tive districts. Maj. Hesse declared that the new system was not a “wheel-chair” assign- ment for members of the automobile patrol, but would eventually prove that the outlying districts could be covered more thoroughly and more effectively by the automobile patrol than by foot patrolmen. The motor patrol algo will add addi- tional men to foot patrol duty, and lessen the length of beats in various congested neighborhoods of the four precincts.

| BEHIND THE SCREENS In this day when the motion picture acreen has surrendered itself to the chatter of dialogue and the promiscu- ous rackets that make Bedlam of the workaday world, it is heartening to learn that in at least one studio thought has been given other aspects of film production than the mere re- production of hubbubs. “The Divine Lady,” First National's most pretentious vehicle for the con- spicuous talents of Corinne Griffith, is reputed to introduce some absolutely new technical and camera effects, ex- clusively evolved in the Burbank studio’s research laboratories. Camera tricks and art work, color filtering processes for lenses and films, lighting processes, new lenses and diffusers and new chemical elements in film treatment all are included in the elaborate scientific provision for mak- ing this one of the most notable film dramas ever released. Every device has been tested and proved, of course, before being put into practical operation by Director Frank Lloyd, who seems, by the way, to indulge a particular penchant for the visualization of stories having 4 large measure of their climacteric ac- tion at sea. It was he, you will recall, who directed Milton Sills in the only tng picture he has ever had—*The a Hawk,” from the adventurous tale of the same name by Rafael Sabatini Among the camera innovations em- ployed in his latest production are telescopic lenses for taking closeups from distant “setups,”’ telescopic lenses for distant scenes to reproduce a binocular effect and a double-lens, sterescopic motion camera. Since “The Divine Lady” deals with colorful court, military and life and costumes of its period, 1780- 1800;* with beautiful old English, French and lItaiian pictorial back- grounds and great sea spectacles such as the battle of Trafalgar, it affords ex- ceptional opportunity for the achieve- ment of unusual effecté. So much so. in fact, that as many as 28 cameras have been used in registering the full value of several “mammoth § single scenes. “The Divine wady” deals with the career of Lady Hamilton as it is set forth in E. Barrington’s novel of that Mame. Victor Varcon! is cast in the role of Lord Nelson, which promises to be the most impressive he has ever played. In response to numerous inquiries as to their probabie playing dates in Washington, as well as a few anony- mous requests that 1 use whatever in- fluence I may have—if any—to hurry them along, I am now enabled to state that “Street Angel,” costarring Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell; “Sunrise,” with George O’Brien, Janet Gaynor and Margaret Livingston; “Four Sons,” with James Hall, Margaret Mann, Al- bert Gran and a splendid supporting cast; “Frazil,” and others of the Fox special productions that have long been famous on Boadway, all will be seen at the Fox Theater in this city early in the coming fall. In view of the rapid development of sound devices and the talking movies since the premieres of these pictures in New York, Washington is to be ad- ditionally favored by viewing these forceful subjects for the first time as they will have been enhanced by the synchronization of special Movietone scores and appropriate sound effects. In “Four Sons,” it may be added, will be seen a screen mother who sprang into rominence overnight. Until cast in the role of the mother of the four boys from whom the film derives its name, Margaret Mann for years had served in the ranks as an “extra,” never achieving anything more important than a brief individual “bit ° Wait until you see her! When Jimmy Walker, Mayor of New York City, visited the First National Studios at Burbank, Calif., recently as civilian © With NELSON B. BELL—— luncheon guests of stars, directors and executives—the order may be reversed, if you feel that way about it—he prob- ably acquired a mental impression of which this may be considered a staccato recitation: A long line of ambulancés drawn up by the gate... Ships sailing gaily on & Man-made ocean... A French rail- way train pulling in and Blue Devils cheering from every window... Signs warning automobilists the studio speed limit is eight miles an hour Colleen Moore bidding some friends good-by as she leaves for location at Santa Bar- bara... Twenty couples dancing on the deck of a big cruiser... Richard Barthelmess and Marian Nixon embrac- ing at the doors of a jail. Alice White showing some new dance steps while the orchestra plays... James Finlayson sitting at an old-fashioned radio with ear phones on... Kate Price looking more buxom and good- natured than ever. . Spec O’Donnell, the boy actor, who has more freckles to the square inch than any one in Hollywood... Milton Sills swinging his left on the jaw of William Dema- rest, while Thelma Todd screams . Corinne Griffith on a silken couch with a beautiful rose in her hand... Vic- tor Marcon! greeting a newspaper friend from New York... Wade Boteler wearing old-fashioned sleeve protectors éve Bodil Rosing, the “mother” of the movies, discussing bobbed hair... (She never bobbed hers) Lee Mo- ran in a natty summer sult of gray ... Charlie Murray and William Beaudine laughing at each other’s gags... Bil- lie Dove in the most beautiful evening gown she ever wore... Donald Reed looking over the call sheets... Lo- retta Young posing for still pictures in peach-colored pajamas . . . Charles De- laney, the handsome young Irish lead- ing man, who is playing opposite Alice White in “Show Girl” . The whistle for lunch. At the very outset, I wish it distinct- ly understood that it is none of my business and that I know it is none of my business, but— If someone isn’t careful—and 1! have no notion who may be responsible— Wesley Eddy, the genial master of cere- monies at Loew's Palace Theater, is going to be over-publicized, quickly and irrevocably, into the dark and dis- astrous limbo of negation! Despite the fact that Mr. Eddy isona so absent from the local scene—the Pal- ace screen is cumbered this week with | motion picture trailers, verbose valedic- tories and other tedious devices, no doubt conscientiously, but none the iess mistakenly, conceived to promote public interest in the mile-by-mile progress of the seven-day outing of the Syncopators’ gifted young director. This, to my probably erroneous notion, is all wrong. There should be left to the Eddy per- sonality-~wand the kid has one—some- thing of the task of creating its own welcome home by making the patrons out front realize that it has been missed, when again the versatile Eddy eddies upon the stage. The course that is being pursued makes this ab- solutely impossible. Wesley Eddy is kept before the eye, and so in the mind, practically every minute that he ordi- narily would be on the stage, with the net result that when he gets back he will not have been missed at all. On the contrary, it is not a fantastic thought that somebody in the audience may, Saturday or later, conceivably say to himself—or, by chance, aloud-— “What! That guy here again?” or some- thing equally unfortunate. Let the boy have his solitary and unheralded off-stage moments! Apropos of one of the gentlemen who are to exchange pleasantries in the Yankee Stadium in New York tonight, why not talk about Yola D’Avril? Mile.

D’Avril will be Thelma Todd, William Demarest, Wade Boteler, Sylvia Ashton and De Witt Jennings. Here was the perfect spot for Mr Heeney, the well-known “Hard Rock from Down Under,” to have made his cinema debut—unless Mr. Tunney, the eminent literateur, discovers during his researches this evening that the “hard rock” isafter all, only soft sand.

Next Monday, July 30% Theater Players will present for the week Booth’ Tarkington's celebrated comedy of adolescence, “Clarence.” “Clarence,” in form, was con- sidered the finest piece of literature of its kind produced in America within the last quarter of a century. So pro- nounced was its success as a novel that the author was prevailed upon by the- atrical magnates to take outstanding events in his hero’s life and ig them into a play. This was done, with the result that Tarkington's play, “Clar- ence,” became a success overnight, and in its oo run on the boards equaled the popularity of its original form. The play ran on Broadway a full sea- s0n and on the road another season. It was then released for stock, but this is the first time the National The- ater Players have ever essayed it. “Clarence” is not in any way an ex- periment. It has been tried and tested a period of een and considered as one of the cleverest comedies of American youth ever written. There will be mafinees Wednesday and Satur- day . . the National LE PARADIS ROOF.

This in itself, April knew, was an honor he rarely accorded a mere star She found herself awaiting the eve- ning with some impatience, and she spent the day making ready for him, filling the house with flowers, going to the market for special dainties for the cook, deciding upon. the clothes she would wear. and of her house, for she divined that in the other’ persons with whom she had come in contact in Hollywood.

And, though he seemed to have re- stood d placed her by another girl of much the | that her hair was blonde instead of black, April sensed that Mona's downfall had come because she had attacked the Bronze Girl. Because of this attitude toward her, April tried not to think about Mona, the new blonde, and the others. That side of DeLain Thomas’ life was none of her business. And he was in no sense a suitor for her favors. Since Peter Thurston has humbled her in the name of love, April wanted no more of that agony. In these affairs of Thomas’ she recognized a protection that would keep her relations with him on that sphere which she had come to regard as infinitely more pre- cious than love—a fine and lasting friendship. So she bought wild flowers for the | table, because she had heard him say Same type except he liked them, and gave the kitchen | to understand that she expected it to excel itself. April had become well acquainted with two sides of DeLain. Thomas’ character—the ruthless artist and worker and the cynic, who laughed at life, even as he drained its cup. To- night he presented a third face that April found most charming—that of the cultured gentleman. Throughout dinner he talked enter- tainingly of many lands and of many people. Though he did not say so, April gathered that he had eaten in the huts of African chiefs, in the tents of Arabs and in the state dining rooms of great people in the capitals of Europe. He had seen military service—but where and for what flag he did not disclose. As April listened, the spell of the man grew—and the mystery. It was plain to her that this man had had the rich background of good birth, of education that transcended the smat- tering of American colleges, of travel in all parts of the world. She tried to think what she had heard about his origin, but that was blank. There were many tales about the present of De- Lain Thomas and his past beginning with: his arrival in Hollywood. But the past beyond that seemed to have been strangely overlooked by the newspaper and magazine writers, who are usually so greedy for every bit of information about the big names of the screen. How did it happen that they had shed so Jttle light on the first 40 years of Thomas’ life—for April Judged that he was now in his middle forties. So after a pause during which the deft maid had removed the salad and had brought in the dainty dessert, April said: “Mr. Thomas, I don’t believe I have ever heard where you were born or what you did before you came to work for Magnifico?” The light died in DeLain Thomas’ eyes and a dreary look succeeded it. “That is something I have never told, Narya.” “But you will tell—me?” He shook his head slowly. “It would be less painful to tell you that I am one of those men who are their own worst, enemies, and let you draw your own conclusions about the rest.” April’s question had thrown cold water on the sparkling mood of her guest.

I have been going with a girl for over & year and love her with all my heart. Sometimes she is just perfect, and at other times I. can not fathom her. Lately she is very indifferent; why. I can not even kiss her good night after we have been out together. I have done everything to show my love for her, and I bought her a very nice wrist watch at graduation time. She just does not give me any encourage- ment and she does not know what it would mean to me if she would change and be more like I want her to be. She is 18 years old and I am 20. She does things that hurt me right to my heart, but she doesn’t seem to listen to me when I ask her to stop. I have asked her to marry me, but she just says “maybe.” I would die for her, I love her so much. We are now on the verge of parting, a thing I couldn't stand Please, Miss McDonald, tell me what is wrong with her.

She is 18 and you are 20, and you want to decide now a matter that neither of you can possibly decide wisely.

You will want all of these for yourself, but it would give me so much pleasure to have you make your acquaintance with these men from the books in my library.” He spoke humbly, as if asking the greatest favor. April did not at that time have the slightest idea of the value of the presentation first edition David Copperfield that he offered her. But she did understand that DeLain Thomas was showing her his real self tonight—the self that April Iked to think of as his best self—in talking so happily and lovingly of things that, in this fictitious world that surrounded them, he felt impelled to keep closely to himself. What a world it was for a man like DeLain Thomas, April reflected. Peapled by beautiful dumbbells, both male and female, who were lifted by the chance of beauty to a dazzling pinnacle cf fame and wealth by a process they scarcely understood and from which they slipped rapidly, as a rule, because they used their fabulous incomes to ruin the beauty that had given it to them. What a world! Why did a man like DeLain Thomas identify himself so closely with this environment, mingle on equal terms with the worst elements of it? The more April knew of Thomas the more of an enigma he became, and the more fascinating. Now April was hanging on his every word, and she gave an involuntary ex- pression of annoyance when the maid came to tell her that she was wanted on the telephone. She returned to Thomas frowning. “It was Val Valerie. The bunch is out on a tear it seems, and they have decided to have a party here. I told her I had aompany, and she said, ‘All the better!’ So I guess there is no way ot getting out of it.” (Copyright, Register and Tribune Syndicate.)

Show yourself a full-grown man by curbing your impatience and allow- ing love a chance to grow. The girl is wise enough to know that decisions of such moment should not be made at 18, and she is behaving ac- cordingly. If she likes you and likes to be with you and shows her pref- erence, that should be enough to make you happy instead of being enough to make you feel you can demand more. When men and women, too, stop de- manding things in love's name they will begin to know really gwhat joys love can offer. As it is, the moment two people have acknowledged mutual love, either one or the other assumes the whip hand and starts out to wreck the whole situation. If you are old enough to love, Terry, you are old enough to save your love by being sane, and sane persons do not take life on three wheels!

They seldom see the sun go down Who swelter in the busy town, For commerce pours its smoke on high And blots the canvas of the sky And smears across a thing sublime Its ugly fingers thick with grime.

She Says every girl who gets kissed has encouraged the boy in some way. Is petting a druglike habit? But let her speak for herself. Dear Dr. Dean: The plaintive wails o! some of my “sisters” under the skin about holdin boy friend without kissing him good-night and “popu- larity without necking,” I have men- tally classified together as “getting over without giving in.” At the start let me establish my au- thority so nobody can think I am one of those old maids who can tell their married friends how to raise their chil- dren. I am one of the three most popu- lar girls in college. I have a date 9 nights out of 10—tonight is the tenth. I go with several different boys in varying degrees of regularity. The four I go with most Just at present are all what I call “regular guys.” I be- live all of them would measure up pretty high in any girl’s estimation. Yet I do not pet. Oh, yes, I have been kissed—I knew somebody would bring that up—and I know how thrilling it is. But with me kisses are very rare and getting rarer every day. Here’s the truth of the matter—it may be almost subconscious; but every girl that gets kissed has encouraged ~ How to Keep Well By DR. W. A. EVANS. DIABETES INSIPIDUS. E. P. H. writes: 1.

Among them are: Brain tumors, high pressure of the cerebro spinal fluid, shock, fright, injuries to the head, dis- ease of the pituitary body, intemper-~- ance, heredity. 2 and 3. The answers to both of these questions depend upon the cause of the disease. BARE HEAD IN SUMMER. H. S. writes: 1. It is harmful to the head or body to go bareheaged in the summer? 2.

I can’t explain it, but it’s something every girl knows in her heart. Maybe the girl doesn’t say anything, doesn’t move a muscle or think consciously on the subject, but she does some sort of encouraging. Usually the boy doesn’t realize it, and takes the full blame (if any) when really the girl is partly to blame. I know, because I’ve been to blame my- self—but not much and not lately. IIow to avoid it is much harder. I wish I didn’t have to avoid it, because it is so thrilling to be romantic; but J know, and every girl knows, that pet- ting is a druglike habit. I have been fortunate enough to be endowed with a sense of humor (too much, some say), and the problem may be easief for those so endowed than for those of more serious nature. When the party gets too tomantic I use a little satire (not too much), and can usually start one of those rediculous arguments about nothing that take a long time to finish and miraculously make everything else uninteresting. A good “line” of come- backs, a little originality and ingenuity, and nobody ever thinks of necking—or if they do they can be persuaded to forget it. If only one gets romantic there’s no danger, remember; but if two are bewitched by the moon at the same time, it’s like a match in a powder factory. Besides you'll find a lot of fellows who are relieved to find that they are not expected to make love and who turn out to be good pals— they’re the kind to give another date to and play tennis with and read books with and go walking with.

New York, July 25.—Most of the leaders in yesterday’s stock market took a back seat today when old timers like General Motors, General Electric, based to a great extent on favorable business news. The volume of trans- actions was about on a par with that | of yesterday—slightly under 1,800,000) shares. Reports from the steel trade were unexpectediy encouraging. Operations of both the United States Steel Cor- poration and the independents have been stepped up. Car loadings for the week ended July 14 showed substantial gains over the corresponding week in 1927. Only twice before this year has the comparison with results a year ago | been favorable. A fresh batch of cor- poration reports was made public dur- ing the day, many of which showed good increases in earnings over like periods of 1927. The situation in the call and time, money markets remained unchanged, the rates continulmg at 5'4 and 6 per cent, respectively, with outside call loans available at 5'4 per cents The appearance of the credit market as a whole, however, was changed by a gen- eral increase of 14 per cent in yields on acceptances.

As a result of late profit | taking some of these stocks closed well below their highs of the day. New lows were established for the year by National Radiator, United Cigar Stores, Beldin-Hemingway and American Woolen. Net gains of 1 to 4:points were nu- merous in the industrial division, while | changes among the carrier stocks were Marrow as a rule and about equally} divided between gains and losses. Ca-| nadian Pacific was tl > strongest in the latter group. Trading was fairly active in the fore- noon, but after midday the market slackened its pace to such an extent’ that at times the trading was almost at a standstill. Simrultaneously prices | slipped off slightly from the best levels of the day Warner Pictures A, which has been prominent on the up side re- | cently, dropped 4', points as a result} of heavy profit taking: Net gains rang- | ing from 2 to 4 points were scored by | American Chicle, Westinghouse, Wright, | Dodge preferred, American Interna- | tional, Paramount, American Tobacco, Borden Co., Otis Elevator and others.

From the camps alone came the word of both Tunney and Heeney—"“I am ready.” Part of the lack of enthusiasm seemed to be due to the general belief that Tunney, who has prom- ised to pound the hard rock into soft sand, easily merits the odds of 3 to 1 placed upon him. The belief is everywhere an opinion has been formed that Heeney is “made” for the champion with his wide open style of attack and willing- ness to plod forever into Tunney’s smashing counters.

During training Gene unleashed a terrific right-hand punch that neariy tore his heavy bag apart, but the critics heve seen him do that before in train- ing. Once in the ring, the champion’'s style of counter-fighting, fast footwork, and cleverness all seem to assert them- selves and prevent him from setting for a deciding clout. a Title Bout Blessed With Clear Weather New York, July 25 blight of rain and miserable weather that has hung over the outdoor boxing season in New York seemed banished today as Tex Rickard Linkered with the final details for the staging of Gene Tunney’s heavyweight title defense against Tom Heeney in the Yankee Stadium tomorrow night. The Weather Bureau, which has had nothing but doleful messages for most promoters this summer, cheered Tex with a report skies would be clear with the air a bit cooler for the title battle.

The Bos- ton batters bunched hits off Malone in the second and sixth to run up a safe margin. The single Cub run came on Hack Wilson’s home run in the seventh, his twenty-third of the sea- son. Wilson Knocked the ball out of the park for one of the longest drives ever seen at Braves Field. Ed Brandt was invinciple for most of the distance. It was Maguire day at the park, and the Cubs second baseman, who for- merly performed at Holy Cross, was presented with a check. for $500 by Boston and Worcester admirers.

Body Facing Break Amsterdam, July 25 (A.P.).—A move for a break between the international Olympic committee and the Interna- tional Football and Tennis Federation was brought up at a meeting of the for- mer body today by Gen. Charles dH. Eherrill, American member of the com- mittee. The cause for the discontinu- ance of relations which Sherrill sug- gested is their different attitudes con- cerning amateur standards. Gen. Sherrill holds that the Olympic cemmittee can not depart from the strictest amateur code or reconcile its principles with the action of the foot- ball federation in sanctioning the prae- tice of paying for broken time, enablinz athletes to be paid for the work they lose in competing. or with the pol:cy of the Tennis Federation in reinstatiag piayers after they have turned profes- The tenet that‘a man once a professional is always a_ professional must. be strictly adhered to, Gen. ‘Sher- rill maintains.

The plebian tastes of Heeney were further illustrateqd this morning. He had been advertised as taking a spin but Tom was along the Shrewsbury in an motorboat. He ate break- fast at the Davies cottage and aiso dinner, and loafed all day. aside from a short bit on the road this morning, his motorboating and a brief swim this afternoon Heeney ring at pounds,” he weigh in at The Heeney outboard would 198 or like 200 to go “IT am said today, little less than out. |. eae into now 202 “and may that after drying out means only that he went today and will go tomorrow without water or anything else to drink between meals. “I really dried out too much for Sharkey, weigh- ing only 193, whereas I was 198 Delaney.” Tome continued, “I be at least the Heeney has never been regarded as a Knock-out hitter, but he. believes he is punching stronger and harder now than at any time inhis life. Helen Wills Defeats 15-Year-Old Rival Manchester,. Mass., July 25 (A.P.).- Miss Heien Wills continued her yvic- torious progress today in the fourth annual Essex County Country Club invitation tournament, when she de- feated Miss Sarah A. Palfrey, of Chest- nut Hill, 15-year-old national girls’ in- door champion, 6—1, 6—2, to enter the semifinal round. The other survivors in the women’s singles are Miss Marjorie Morrill, Ded- ham; Miss Edith Cross, San Francisco, and Mrs. L. A. Harper, of Berkeley, Calif., all of whom won their quarter final matches today. In the giris’ indoor champion Miss Wills faced an opponent who pre- fererd to play an offensive rather than a hopeless defensive game. As a result, although the outcome was never in doubt, the match was filled with long rallies which usually resulted in Miss Wills’ favor, but sometimes ended ab- ruptly when Miss Paifrey made a clean placement. The stroke analysis re- vealed that Miss Palfrey made 15 earn- ed points to Miss Wills’ 12, although the Chestnut Hill’s girls’ 48 errors to the champion’s 22 far more than coun- terbalanced this surprising advantage. 2 Young Professionals Lead Western Open North Shore Club, Chicago, July 25 (A.P.).—A perfect day for golf inspired two young professiona!s, Bill Tinder, of Anderson, Ind., and Phil Hessler, of Bristow, Okla., to score 70, or two under par, today to take the lead of the first half of the large field in the elimina- tion round of the Western open golf championship. at North Shore Club. This score is a competitive course rec- ord, the only better score being a 69 by Harry Cooper during an exhibition from the forward tees. Only one stroke behind this brilliant pair came Jim Noonan, of Gary, Ind.., to complete a trio of par busters for the first day’s play over the 6,800-yard course, more ‘difficult because of its newness than for the real golfing diffi- culties built into the links. The more famous players among the nearly 300 entrants, including Johnny Farrell, national open champion, will take the stage tomorrow to complete the elimination rounds, from which only the best 150 and ties will survive for Friday's eighteen holes. As 75 play- ers today scored 82 or better. that score appeared to be the highest that would buy. an ission ticket to Friday's halt of the field do ent. ues the | | Heeney camp announced yesterday that | Tom a | watching | Campbell | for | want to that tomorrow and I figure I will go in the ring about 202, bigger ,and stronger than ever.” Special to pion, ful | mitage, be gle for specimens of humanity a iallitiee iisti His Cc hhciieabeis Geile Day Loafing About His Training Camp.

Gosh, it’s tough to have to leave them behind.” but as the champion’s lament end- ed the breakfast bell clanged and Tunney made his rivate dining room at the Osborn Hotel in reeord time. Immediately after a hearty break- fast the champion concluded his front porch campaign by giving the few remaining camp scribes re- assuring statements that he was ready and confident. } seemed to be more concerned his scheduled flight to New York City tomorrow than with the questions fired at him. “Are you going to box fight him?” he was “That all depends,” replied the cham- pion. “It’s entirely up to Heeney, but |I’m prepared to beat him at whatever Style he may care to adopt.

Tunney discoursed at length on his contemplated flight. -He Said he was glad he decided to take off in an amphibian plane from Lake Pleasant as it lessened the danger of a poor take off.

Roesch’s 77 Leads Maryland Tourney Baltimore, Md., July 25.—About 80 entrants qualified today in the fifth an- nual invitation golf ‘tournament of the Maryland Country Club. The mateh play will begin Friday’ and continue through the finals Saturday afternoon. The best reported score turned in to- day went to Frank Roesch, Washington Golf.and-Country Club, who shot a 177. Two 79s and several 80s were registered, one. of the latter being Gordon B. Sher- wood, Chevy Chase. Sherwood started out like he was about to burn up the links.: He shot the first two par holes in birdies and then equalled par. His card going out was 36, but he fell away and totaled 44 for the- incoming nine. Following the custom established last year, the committee will Not post the scores until all have qualified tomor- row. ‘ fs Dodgers Beat Cards ae aS On Errors by High Brooklyn, N. Y., July 25 (A.P.).—Two errors by Andy High gave Brooklyn cight unearned runs in the fourth inning here today, and the Robins easily defeated the Cardinals, 8 to 1. behind Jim Eliiott’s fine pitching. The big southpaw held the league leaders to fiv> hits, and had a shut-oubt until the ninth, when Frank Frisch, pinch batsman for Earl Smith, singled to drive in Bottomley with the only St. Louis run. Pa Sherry Magee, something of a thorn in the sides of umpires in his own playing days, banished Dave Bancroft in the ninth inning for arguing over a decision.

Lincoln Post, e’cloc Kelleys vs. Sam Rice, HE Lincoln Post Team took un- disputed leadership in the play-off series of the American Legion sec- tion of the Capital City League yes- terday by defeating the Kelleys in a hard-fought game, 7 to 5. The other two scheduled games resulted in for- feits, the Powhatans being declared the winner over the Plansky’s and the Sam Rices over the Boys Club Standards by 9 to 0 scores. The Planskys placed an inelli team on the field and a five-in exhibition was played, leading, 4 to 1, when the game was called. In the Sam _ Rice-Standard game, the Rices were ahead, 16 to 1, in the third inning, and when the Stand- ards and their supporters attempted to delay the game, it was called in the fifth inning. ible ling the Powhatans George Brandt pitched the entire game for the Lincoln Post Team, and, with the exception of one or two times, when he encountered trouble because of wildness, he held the Kelleys helpless. He allowed ony six hits. Panetta, who was credited with sevy- eral pretty sacrifices and played a nice game at shortstop for the winners, Stan and Sullivan leading at bat. Sul- livan collected four hits in as many trips to the plate, while Stan collected two safeties, one a homer. The Lincoln Post team was leading 4 to 3 going into the ninth inning and tallied three more runs in the last frame to offset the two runs the Kelleys scored in their half. Besides pitching a good game for the winners, Brandt slammed out a triple. Conner pitched for the Powhatans and held the Planskys to a lone run until the game was called. Lee led at bat for the winners with two hits. Mates pitched for the Sam Rices and while he was holding the Standards his team mates pounded several opposing pitchers for 7 runs in the second in- ning and 9 runs in the third frame.

Without in any way changing our belief that in the highest interests of good sportsmanship the course which the lawn tennis association has fol- lowed has been correct, and realizing that the ambassador is in a position to determine whether international good will and diplomatic considerations should outweigh principles which were the basis of our action, the U.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 153. The visitors scattered their shots against Southpaw Stewart in the sec- ond game. Barnes walked and scored on Rice’s double to right. Goslin was thrown out by Brannon, Rice reaching third, and Sammy scored on Judge's grounder to Blue. The Browns found Sam Jones just as easy. Blue doubled, O’Rourke walked, and Manush singled to center and they were tied at two apiece. From the first to the eighth the Nats were unable to score against Stewart, while the Browns solved Jones for three runs in the sixth. With one out, McGowan tripled and scored on Brannon’s fly to Barnes. McNeely doubled and Manion walked, Stewart surprised with a double to left to score the two, Just when it looked as if Stewart would breeze along, the Nats tied the score in the eighth. Jones, Barnes, Goslin, Judge. and Cronin whipped singles through the infield for three runs. Then the two rivals were square again and they fought it out to the twelfth with the break going against the Nats. Kress started by beating out a slow grounder to Bluge. McGowan sacrificed. Brannon was tossed out by Cronin on afancy play. Schulte batted for McNeely and was purposely passed. The slick stuff, however, failed to work. Manion cracked a bounder straight for Cronin, and, just when the Kansas City graduate was set to scoop in the ball, it took a nasty hop, hit him on the shoulder and rolled to center field for a hit, Kress scoring the winning run. Marberry offered a messy exhibition in going to the rescue of Hadley with | a tie score in the [first game, allowing two runs in the sixth and five in the seventh. With this lead, the Browns eased up and down the stretch and the two Washington runs scored in the ninth proved simply wasted en- ergy. In contrast to the work of Marberry was a frisky juvenile on side, Walter Beck by name. who put | an immediate stop to the fence bust- ing that promisea to save the winning end of the decision. the peak for three frames and but three hits and one run There was a bit of satisfaction, however, for the Nats, if there can be such a thing tn a losing ball game, for Alvin Crowder, who be- came the season's sensation by winning ten straight games, was knocked off the hill by his former mates. Hadley was found for one run at the start on a double by Blue and two sac- rifices. The Nats took the lead when two runs were scored in the third With two down when Goslin walked, Judge doubled and Bluege singled. The Browns returned with the tying run in their half on a pass to Schang, a sacri- fice and Manush’s double. From then on it was shower. The Harrismen running on high when three in the fourth. Kenna hit into the left fleld seats, Hadley singled Barnes doubled, and Goslin singled. The Browns still had a big punch left, with Hadley pitching, and in their fifth, Blue doubled, O'Rourke: singled and Manush tripled. Marberry was rushed to the mound. He fanned Kress, but McGowan’s fly to Barnes. allowed Manush to tie the score. O'Rourke hit a home run _ with Schang on in the sixth and the seventh saw the side bat around. McGowan singled and the next two were retired. Schang was purposely passed. Schulte, for Beck, walked. Kenna, trying to pick Schang off second, hit the runner and Wallie followed McGowan across the plate. Blue walked, O'Rourke doubled and Manush singled to finish the rally of five runs. Three singles by Judge, Bluege and Cronin greeted Coffman in the ninth, but the Nats were too far behind and eventually were snuffed out to end the the game.

Lindstrom hit for the cir- cult with two on in the seventh, giv- ing the home team a lead of three. but Grantham tied it in the next round by combing Bill Walker for a round trip with one on after the Pir- ates already had scored one run. Hogan's home in the eighth gave the Giants the ultimate winning run. Walker got credit for the victory, but gave way to a pinch batsman in the eighth, and Joc Genewich fin- ished. Paul Waner, Pirate outfield star, col- lided with the right field wall while trying to make a catch of a hard drive hit by Ott, and was forced to retire from the game.

Warwick me- morial and the Pierce Foundation, made possible the new building. Arthur B. Heaton is architect and Frank L. Wagner, Inc., contractor, The design will conform to early American architecture. The exterior will be of brick and stone. Besides foundlings the _ institution will care for other needy children. The main floor will contain play rooms, while the first floor of the two wings will be used as a kitchen and dining room. The upper floor will be used as a dormitory. A separate section has been set aside for children suffering from minor contagious diseases.

ERHAPS the fact that the bathing season is with us is at the bottom of the increasing number of let- ters asking for special exercises to build or reduce the legs. In this age of short skirts and abbreviated bathing attire, certainly shapely limbs are far more definitely to be sought after than they were in grandmother’s day, or even in mother’s day. And this fact, it seems to me, is making for sounder health and sturdier bodies, since the only sure road to nicely modeled limbs is made up of sane habits of diet and regular exercise, As I have pointed out before in these articles, legs, ankles and arms will take on surer, truer lines with exercise, preferably out of doors, that brings into play the muscles of the whole body. I know of no exercise better than swimming. Tennis is excellent. So in handball. A good, brisk walk with shoulders back, chest out and chin in is a splendid daily habit. There are many exercises that can be practiced in the bedroom night and morning that will bring into play the muscles of the legs especially. (It should be remembered that the exer- cise that tends to reduce the excess- ively heavy leg will also tend to build up the underdeveloped one.) The fol- lowing can be depended upon, if prac- ticed conscientiously and regularly: 1. Imitate the Russian dance move- ment. Squat down on the floor until the weight almost rests on the heels. At first, it may be necessary to hold to something to maintain balance. In the squatting position, thrust one foot straight forward, bring it back to the original position, then thrust forward the other foot. Practice the exercise with vigor and snap. Repeat with each leg until you begin to feel fatigued. 2. Lie on the back. Raise both feet over your head, with knees straight. Now imagine you are riding a bicycle. Start slowly and gradually increase the pace. Put some real exertion into the exercise. 3. Stand erect with the hands on the hips. Shift the weight of the body to the left foot and extend the right foot straight out in front. Keep the knee straight. Touch the floor lightly with downward pointed toes, stretching the leg muscles all the way from hips to toes. Bring the foot back, shift the weight to the right leg and repeat the movement with the left leg. Repeat ten to fifteen times. If there is room, a few turns with the skipping rope will round off a really good leg work-out.

Like City’s, Find Food Had Not Decomposed. The mystery as to the cause of the outbreak of illness among the women Sion of the Centi¢l Union Mission to Marshall Hall last Friday was deepened yesterday. Dr. R. H. Riley, commis- sioner of the Maryland department of public health, declared tests of food sold at the river resort and examined by his department showed the speci- mens to be free from contamination. Although Emergency. Hospital phy- sicilans declared eggs, part of the food furnished the excursionists by the Cen- tral Union Mission, were directly re- sponsible for the illness of more than threescore of the excursionists, lab- oratory tests made under the direction of Dr. William Fowler, District health officer, failed to bear out this con- tention. Dr. Riley said he believed those who suffered illness overate and became prostrated from the heat and over- exertion. He could not account for the illness of the dozen or more babies and young children who did not exert themselves. ‘f- and children who attended the excur-| ‘by motor at noon and during the aftefe noon, participated in swimming, boate ing, fishing and other activities the resort affords. A special guest on the outing was Danile E. Garges, secretary to the Board ,of Commissioners. During the evening a shore dinner was served.

Uncle Ray’s Corner Stratford-on-Avon. ERE I am in the little town which William Shakespeare made _ s50 famous! I am staying at Old Town Place, a sn.all friendly hotel which is hardly 150 yards. from the church in which the remains of Shake- speare lie. A glimpse of the Avon and the church where Shakespeare was buried. I say “the remains of Shakespeare,” but perhaps that is not a good way to put it. Whatever dust or bones lie beneath the floor of that church are only a tiny portion of what Shakespeare left to the world. The important thing he left was his mind. Today, three centuries after he breathed his last, there are millions of persons who read his plays. Some. parts of his work are | certainly among the greatest which have come from the pen of man, In Shakespeare’s Birthplace Shakespeare was born here, as well as buried, and I have been thinking of the forces which went to make up his youth. There is the pretty Avon flowing through the town, and no doubt he gazed on it many a time, \ thinking thoughts which were one day to find a place in his writings. Yet here is the Avon still—and it produces no more Shakespeares! There must have been something great born into the boy. Across the street from my hotel is the home which belonged to Susannah Shakespeare, one of the poet’s daughe ters. Another daughter, Judith, also made her home in Stratford. There is perhaps a little doubt ag to just which house Shakespeare was born in, but people look upon a certain — one as the place in which he first sa the light of day. Visitors from scoreg_ of countries have come to see that’, house. Many have written their nameg upon the walls, ceiling and even thé windows.
