WHITE OAD, CITING VOTEa Kansas Editor Employs Experts to Report on Assembly Record. DEBATE CHALLENGE SEEN IN STATEMENT Governor Aided Saloons and Gamblers, Is Charge in Resumed Attack. New York, July 28 (A.P.).—Resum- ing his attack on Gov Alfred E. Smith today, Willlam Allen White, editor of the Emporia (Kans.) Gazette, said two weeks investigation into New York State records had substantiated his previous statement that Gov. Smith had supported the liquor. interests while a member in the New York As- sembly. Mr. White said he had employed two experts to delve into the journal of the assembly for Gov. Smfth’s record, and he now was prepared “to face the governor with his own votes on queés- tions affecting the saloon, and its two parasites, the gambler and the prosti- tute.” “I am not a trained debater,” Mr White said. “I am a country editor, from a little country town in Kansas, but one might take that record and &® photostat copy of the assembly jour- nal and show Gov. Smith that his record in the assembly, so far as it af- fected the saloon, the gambler and the prostitute was a Tammany record Moreover, this detailed record vote will show that he voted, or is so recorded, these nearly a dozen years on the big controversial measures with the most notorious saloon men in the Tammany delegation.

Two weeks ago he did me the honor to wal- lop me over a preacher’s shoulders, calling the preacher, of whom I never heard, a liar and 18-carat faker tn the matter of Gov. Smith’s assembly record. “Gov. Smith, with all his intelli- gence, with all his henesty, with all his courage—which nc one questions, seems to have left his high qualities in escrow with Charles Murphy when he went to Albany as an assembly- man.” Some saw in Mr. White’s statement a challenge to Gov Smith to debate his legislative record wher the editor said, “The real point o1 interest in that record for the American people now, if Gov. Smith will defeno it, is the pic- ture of Tammany putting the pressure on fine aspiring young men like Al Smith, forcing then t« use their cour- age not upon the evile of Tammany, but in behalf of the friends of Tam- many.” The rest of the statement said: “No klansman in a boob legislature, cringing before a «leagle, or a wizard, CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN « SLEEPING BABE FOUND BY POLICE ON PORCH Mysterious Phone Call Re- veals Foundling;.Occupants of House Are Away. A mysterious telephone call to the Thirteenth Police Precinct about mid- night last night led police to find a 244-month-old baby asleep in a basket on the porch of 5418 Ninth street northwest. Efforts to arouse the occu- pants of the house were futile, and po- lice are of the opinion that the resi- dents were not at home. The haby, a boy, was sleeping peace- fully in the basket when the police arrived. He was dressed in a white dress and a white knitted jacket, and was wrapped in a white blanket. A bottle of milk was also found in the basket. The police took the baby to the sta- tion house, and still he did not awaken. They then sent him to the Washington Foundling Asylum, where, at an early hour, despite his adventures he was still asleep, leading. police to believe that a sleeping potion had been given him. There.were no marks of identification on the clothing.

COLUMN 3 dD, PATTEROON TRAGT LOTs BOUGHT BY MARKET MEN Street Merchants Despite Railroad’s Plans. Although the Potomac Freight Ter- minal Co. and the Pennsylvania Rall- road are going ahead with the devel- opment of the Water street terminal area as a market center, it was learned yesterday that negotiations have been completed for the purchase of section 1 of the Patterson tract, containing 40 lots, by commission merchants on B street who soon will be forced to vacate by the Federal building program. It is understood the 40 parcels soid at an average of $2,500 each, making a total of $100,000. It was estimated the two-story stores to be erected will cost approximately $400,000 more, making the total expenditure $500,000. A meeting was held Friday afternoon, it wa. reported, between the commission men and representatives of the owners, and details of the sale were thrashed out and deposits for the land posted. Deeds to the property will be obtained in about 30 days, it was sald. The exact date of the removal from the B street area to the Northeast sec- tion depends upon when the Federal Government notifies the commission men to leave their present locations.

Considerable interest will. attach to the Hoover women crusaders when they get around to the home of Charles H. Sabin, of New York, with a view to put- ting Mr. Hoover’s picture in his kitchen. Mrs. Sabin is a Hooverite, the national committee woman from New York. Mr. Sabin, on the other hand, is a Demo- crat, and an A] Smith “Democrat at that.

Front Royal, Va., July 28,—Today’'s session of the trial in the Circuit Court here of Henry C. Robinson, former Navy aerial photographer and prohi- bition agent, charged with the murder of a father and his son, terminated with unexpected suddenness, marked by clashes between opposing counsel, ad a heated verbal tilt between a relative of the slain men and defense counsel, who sought to discredit her testimony A quick decision on the part of Cir- cult Judge Phillip Williams to recess the trial untill Monday morning cleared the crowded courtroom and smothered any expression of feeling that might have developed among friends ot the accused, and those of John M.

NETTLED AT FAILURE TO RECEIVE ACCLAIM Tried for Knockout to Gain Public Recognition; Will Wed Soon, Is Belief. New York, July 28 (A.P.).—The lieavyweight division of the fistic world, dominated more than ever now by Gene Tunney, may lose its ruler with- in the next few days. Through friends in Greenwich, Cénn., where the heavyweight cham- Pion has been in semi-seclusion since he crushed Tom Heeney, New Zealand challenger in the Yankee Stadium ring Thursday night, Gene said he would make an announcement “of the great- est importance” in New York, probably Monday. Although Tunney could not 0obe reached directly, the Associated Press learned that the announcement will be one of retirement from the ring. Gene feels that he has conquered all before him in the ring, has piled up all the wealth he can ever need, and faces a long period of inactivity through dearth of qualified challengers No mention of contemplated mar- riage will be made in the announce- ment, it was learned, although friends of the titleholder are aware that Gene considers entering matrimony after completing his walking trip abroad with Thornton Wilder, the novelist. Tunney will sail for Europe and the hike through Germany August 16. Seeks Acclaim as Champion. Postponement of the announcement, friends say, was made to permit recog- nition by the general sporting public of Tunney as a great champion. The titleholder believes that he stamped himself not only a masterful boxer but a fighting ruler of the “killer” type ir his technical knockout victory over the New Zealand challenger. Following his smashing triumph over the Anzac, Tunney, friends believe, has waited general recognition as a great champion. an an effort to win public favor once and for all as a great fighter of the “killer” type as well as a maste: boxer, Gene threw every ounce of his strength and power into demolishing Heeney in 11 rounds of the title tilt. Tunney'’s retirement will come, friends believe, when he decides that he never can be a genuinely popular champion. His decision will be influ- enced also, it was said, by Als plan to marry and by the fact that he faces a long period of inactivity and the dan- ger of becoming “ring rusty.” Since winning the heavyweight title from Jack Dempsey at Philadelphia in September, 1926, Gene has fought but GONTINUED ON PAGE 17, COLUMN 4 Shot as Moonshiner Dry Agent Succumbs Leavenworth, Wash., July 28 (A.P.)

GIRL AOKS $1,047,000 OF CHRISTIE, PRODUCE Suit Charges Breach of Prom- ise to Marry, Also to Employ and Seduction. PUT OUT OF CAR, SHE SAYS Los Angeles, July 28 (A.P.).—A suit for $1,847,500, filed by Miss Alys Mur- rell, motion actress, against one of the most prominent of Holly- wood’s motion picture producers, Charles H. Christie, today provided film circles of that city with a choice topic of discussion. The huge suit charged Christie with “seduction, breach of promise to marry and breach of prom- ise to employ.” While attorneys for Christie and rep- resentatives at his large studios in Hollywood scoffed the claim, the actress’ suit, filed in. three separate claims, charged that Christie had promised to marry her In August, 1927, Miss Murrell’s com- plaint said, the producer, a brother of Al Christie, film comedian, asked her to marry him. The actress agreed and quit her position in Hollywood. She informed friends of the forthcoming nuptials and prepared for the wedding which was to have been held in Janu- ary, 1928 She asked for $1,000,000 damages for what she termed Christie's subsequent refusal to marry her. A second claim filed asked for $97,- 500, on the ground that the film mag- nate signed a contract to employ Miss Murrell at a salary of $150 a week for a period of five years, but failed to do so, although the actress showed up for work every day and asked for her pay every week for some time, she said Christie refused to pay her anything In the other part of the suit Miss Murrell charged that Christie took ad- vantage of her through “artifice, per- suasion and misrepresentation, flattery CONTINUED picture at ON PAGE 5.

OWSLEY NOW THIRD; BLANTON IS FOURTH Love Is Second in Field of 5; Other Foes of Smith Make Poor Showing. Dallas, Tex., July 28 (A.P.).—Ratios of the first few scattering returns still were maintained late tonight when the Texas election bureau had compiled 228,590 votes of an estimated 700,000 cast in today’s state-wide Democratic primary. On the face of the unofficial reports from 194 of Texas’ 253 counties, with only one county complete, it was indi- cated that Earle B. Mayfield, United’ States senator, would have to face Tom Connally, representative in Congress from the Eleventh district, in a rufi- off primary next month, and that Dan Moody, 35-year-old governor, was sweeping ahead to renomination over a field of two other men and a woman. In the race for leu*enant governor, Barry Miller, of Dallas. incumbent, @ strict party man, had a long lead over his nearest opponent, Thomas B. Love, State senator, formerly dominant in Texas politics, whose name was left off the ballot in several counties when he took a stand against Gov. Alfred E. Smith, of New York. Count tn Three Contests. The figures: United States senator—Maryfield, 67,- 922; Connally, 64,903; Alvin Owsley, 43,001; Thomas L. Blanton, 39,478; Mrs. Minnie Fisher Cunningham, 8,935; Jeff McLemore, 4,351. Governor—Moody, i39,183; Louis J. Wardlaw, 78,331; William E. Hawkins, 9,391; Mrs. Edith Wilmans, 5,290. Lieutenant governor—Miller, 94,604; Love, 56918; J. D. Parnell, 23,439; H. L. Darwin, 13,239; yohn D. McCall, 10,- 580. Smith Foes Are Trailing. The votes cast for William BE Haw- kins and Mrs. Edith B Wilmans were negligible. Both ran on platforms ex- pressing refusal to support the presi- dential candidacy of Gov. Alfred E Smith The vote: Moody, 24,351; Wardlaw, 11, 644; Hawkins, 1770: Wilmans, 828. The heutenant governor’s contest was regarded as pointing the division of Texas in support of or against the pres- icdential nominee. In this race State Senator Thomas B. Love, whose name was refused a place on the primary ballot in several counties because of his expressed opposition to Gov. Smith, was running well behind Barry Miller, of Dallas, the incumbent, all of whose campaign speeches neglected mention of himself, but urged support for the . “ticket.” House Returns Are Slow. Returns came .n slowly from the eleven congressiona, contests, although the incumbents who sought renomina- tion in eight cf the districts were leading. Hatton W. Sumners, the Dallas vet- eran in the lower douse of congress; Clay Stone Briggs, of Galveston, and Claude D. Hudspeth, of El Paso, were making rumaway races in the early compilations, In the First District, Eugene Black, of Clarksville, incumbent, led Wright Pattman, of Texarkana 2,042 to 2,023, on meager reports from six of the eleven counties in the district. In the second, John C. Box, incum- bent, and S. H. Sanders, of Center, were running neck and neck with 1312 and 1,288 votes, respectively, when three of the fourteen counties in the district had reported. Prosecution Threatened. Former State Supreme Court Justice William E. Hawkins, one of Gov. Moody’s three opponents, threatened today to prosecute those responsible for barring his and other candidates names from the ballots because they have foresworn support of Gov. Alfred E. Smith, Democratic presidential nominee. The name of Hawkins, Mrs. Edith Wilmans, of Dallas, the fourth candle date for governor, and State Senator Tom Love, of Dallas, candidate for lieutenant governor, were left off the ballots of seven counties as “bolters.” Candidates who fail to secure a ma- jority over all’ their opponents will i~t» the run-off primary with the next highest candidate in August. A run- off seenfed inevitable in the senate race. Definitely conclusive results of the election may not be known for two days, especially in the close races, be- cause of the immense size of the State and consequent tardiness of returns from some sections.

Richards’ been missing shortly after means to find picture Was recognized by his .amily, and, as exclusively reporied in The Washing- ton Post yesterday morning, er called Dr. Meyer K Amadur, ‘at Gal- linger Hospital, over the long-distance telephone,’ and partl> identified the amnesia victim. : The brother, accompanied by William | I. Stewart, also of Pittsburgh, arrived in Washington by automobile yester- day, and when he visited Richards had no difficulty inidentifying him. When the elder Richards and Stewart walked into the patient’s hospital room yes- terday morninga slight gleam of recog- nition ht up the patient's face, but he declared that he could not place them, although their faces seemed familiar. Richards told Dr. Amdur that the amnesia victim had manifested sym- toms of mental instability for some time, and that shortly after Christ- mas he came home one night, gathered his clothes together and went away without telling any of his family. He had not since been heard from. The patient had been an exception- ally brilliant scholar until the last three years, his brother said, when in contrast he had been unable to obtain even passable grades. In addition to his father and older brother, the am- nesia victim has two other brothers and two sisters in Pittsburgh, and was engaged to be married this summer. Richards and Stewart plan to take the patient back to Pittsburgh this fiorning, and it is thought probable that he will be placed in a Pittsburgh hospital. Despite his failure to recog- nize his brother, the young man’s memory showed some signs yesterday of slowly returning, as he seemed to recover a fairly good recollection of the streets of Pittsburgh.

Cheshire, 52 years old, 419 Second street north- west. Since then he has been arraigned in them three times, has been ordered. to appear a fourth, and last night he was arrested by Bladensburg police and was held in $500 bond on a charge of reckless driving pending arraignment in a Maryland court. Cheshire shocked attaches in Traffic Court last ‘veek when he appeared to answer a charge of reckless driving, and sat down with hi. hat on smoking a cigar and reading a newspaper Such nduct could not be condoned by the liffs and they ordered him from the courtroom despite his protests. When he returned he was convicted. — Upon leaving the courtroom he threatened to hit the policeman who had arrested him, with a brick. A few moments later he was back in the courtroom charged with threats. He was placed under $100 bond to keep the peace. Unable to post bond he was committed to jail, where he served two days.. Three hours after his release he was arrested for speeding. When he failed to appear in court to answer the charge, Judge Gus A. Schuldt issued an attachment for him.

Section i of the Patterson tract Is Just to the east of the Pennsylvania Raliroad pass@nger tracks entering Union tation, and adjacent to the freight tracks of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad at Eckington. A spokesman for the commission men stated yester- day that the reason the group decided to locate in the Nortreast section was because they received 85 per cent of thelr freight through this section of the city. During the hearings several months ago on the relocation of the farmers market, the Southwest site was advo- cated by the Pennsylvania Railroad, and the Patterson tract was fostered by the Baltimore & Ohio. At the time the District Commissioners announced the permanent location of the farmers market would be influenced by where the commission merchants finally lo- cated. Later, the District heads ap- proved the South wesi site; squares 354- 55, bounded by Tenth, Eleventh, E and G streets. The Stalker bill, specifying the Southwest site, was passed by the House last winter, but failed to pass the Senate, it being blocked largely through the efforts of Senators Bruce and Tydings, of Maryland.

IS DUE BACK THIS WEEK Dr. Milo Maltble, New York public utilities expert, has, virtually, com- pleted his study of the traction merger plan, and is about ready to start draft- ing his report, it was learned yester- day. For ten days or more Dr. Maltbie has been going over merger statistics in New York, having been driven away from Washington by the intense heat. H is expected to return here this week. Dr. Maltbie was employed by the special merger subcommittee of the Senate District committee. This sub- committee was created and given $10,- 000 for expenses after the full District committee refused to take favorable action on a resolution authorizing the merger. Senator Capper (Republican), of Kansas, is expected to call a meeting of the subcommittee well tn advance of the convening of the December ses- sion of Congress so that it can ana- lyze Maltbie’s report, and, if it so de- sires, hold hearings. In his study of the merger, Maltbie 1as had every available document on the question. He was provided with all the data bearing on the court valua- tion of the Capital Traction Co., the full transcript of the congressional hearings on the merger resolution, and a copy of the 20 reasons advanced by William McK. Clayton in protesting against the merger. Clayton’s principal argument was that the $50,000,000 valuation for the proposed merged company was too high. The traction interests have de- clared that such a valuation would mean a gain for the city. Copper Forming Bird Joins Zoo Exhibits The turacou—a richly colored bird from Senegal, West Africa, that has copper in its feathers—has been added to the Zoo, it was announced yesterday. This is the only instance known in which copper is formed by organic se- cretions. When the bird takes a bath or when it becomes wet from the rain, the copper is washed out of the feathers, but returns within a few days. A Malay hornbill, the fourth of its kind at the Zoo, was recently acquired. The pecullar thing about the hornbill ts the manner in which It builds its nest. The female bird retires to a hollow tree and is sealed in by the male until the eggs are hatched. Post Classified Ads ere on the {job from morning until night. SUDDEN DOWNPOUR BRINGS HEAT RELIEF Half-Inch Rainfall Checks the Tomperature Climb to Record Heights. A sudden downpour of rain yester- day afternoon brought the temperature down 15 degrees within an hour and effectively checked what threatened to be another record hot July day. With the thermometer at the Penn- sylvania avenue kiosk registering 93°, degrees in a steady upward climb short- ly before 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the skies suddenly clouded and a small shower, lasting less than a minute, materially changed the atmosphere and was soon followed by a heavy thunderstorm which brought the mer- cury down to 78 degrees at 3 o'clock. The storm, although lasting but haif an hour, was one of the heaviest here recently, and the rainfall of 57 inch was the greatest recorded in Washing- ton this month It also brought a sharp break in the humidity from 75 to 52. The storm was followed, however, by another upward trend in the tempera- ture, and by 5 o’clock the mercury had risen to 83 degrees.

If the organ in question proves to be the organ which George Berkeley, Lord Bishop of Cloyne, and noted philosopher, presented to Trinity Church, Newport, in 1733, and which was removed from the church many years later to make way for a largeer and better one, Mr. Ford, who has en- tered into negotiations for its purchase, can not have it, says Bishop Darling- ton, of Pennsylvania, John Nicholas Brown, former Governor R. Livingston Beeckman, and others. If it proves not to be the Berkeley organ, he will be allowed to take it away and thus add what undoubtedly is a treasure of its kind, even without definite historical connections, to his collection of antique musical instru- ments, now housed in Dearborn, Mich. It is known that members of Trinity Church were greatly interested in the Christian Church, Portsmouth, at the time of its formation and for many years thereafter and It 1s believed that the little old organ now in the church wsa sent there from Trinity. Mrs. Alonzo Borden, member of the church board tor many years, says that when the organ now in use there was In- stalled, the builders of the instrument stated that the old organ, removed to the church gallery, was one of the old- est they had seen. There are indications that the 92a Portsmouth organ has been recased and it is known that the case of the original Rerkeley organ was kept in Trinity Church and new “works” and pipes placed inside and upon it. Neither Mrs. Borden nor her husband, members of the Christian Church tor many years, know anything definite of the early history of the organ. In them and other members of the church board, however, is vested full authority to dispose of it as they see fit. It was the Rev. Russell Clem, pastor of the church, who first told Mr. Ford of ‘ts existence and suggested to the Detroit man that he buy it. Agents of Mr Ford later examined the instrumeat and began negotiations for its purchase Hearing that Mr. Ford was after the organ, old Newport residents who knew more of Rhode Island church history than the automobile magnate, began to inquire into the history of the in- strument and connect it in thelr minds with the noted Berkeley organ, p+) F MEXICAN CONGRESS | ‘All | afternoon, | uncertain | called re- ! | | bandit, i of 1922.

REPUBLICAN CHIEFS UIFFER ON CAMPAIGN MO TO WAN SOUTH ~ TN ey Work and Moses Sharply Conflict, but Chair- man Is Having His Way. ‘MANAGER SEES BATTLE AS HOOVER VS. SMITH | ‘Propaganda Against Governor in South Being Distributed by Ku K'::x Organ. By CARLISLE BARGERON. There is a sharp conflict of views in the Republican camp as to whether the Republicans should make a campaign in the South, seem fairly well drawn between what might be called the old guard and the new, typified, respectively, by Senator George N. Moses and Chairman Hubert i. Work. It is not a question so much as to the nature of the campaign that should de carried: on. Chairman Work him- self rather leans to the belief just now. it is indicated, that it will be better for the naional committee to remain in the background and let the State or- ganizations handle the stiuation, out- wardly at least. But he does believe an intensive campaign should be conduct- ed and there is where he and Senator Moses or the two schools of thought | divide. Senator Moses has been in practical politics a long time, and some of those who take Dr. Work’s view point out that he may be too set in his politi- cal ways, but at any rate he can not take seriously the talk about the Solid South or any part of it going Republi- can. The New Hampshire senator docs have an eye on a few congressional dis- tricts, especially in North Carolina.

But he and Dr. Work have sharply | rontrasting minds Dr. Work is, of course, a Republican, but there are all | ortg of indications that he sees this fight as one between Hoover and Smith; not one between Republicans and Dem- ocrats. Senator Moses is old-fashioned | cnough to continue to hold the party Picture foremost. Dr. Work has not /| been engaged in national politics long As a matter of fact, he stepped into | the national arena when he came out for Mr. Hoover. This is not to suggest. of course, that his view of the Southern situation is wrong and Senator Moses’ right. It does explain that Dr. Work is a Hooverite rather than an old school Republican, There is considerable reason to lieve that Hoover himself rather looks | upon the campaign as one peculiarly between himself and the New York Governor. He has indicated this in the | type Of organization he has built up| around him This organization is not | a Republican organization as the term | has been known in the past It is a} Hoover organization. For evidence of this. one only look at Senator Moses’ position, vir- | tually that of being on the outside looking in.

Hoover, re- gardiess of their section of the country or their past political affiliations. This appeal, it is believed, is to be just as Strong in the South as in other sections of the country The fact that the South has always been Democratic is of little concern;—It is Hoover running now. That is to be the keynote of the campaign. And in connection with it is the inescapable fact that Hoover has never claimed to he a dyed-in-the-wool partisan, He carne istto President Harding’s Cabinet as Herbert Hoover, just emerged from working under a Democratic President, and, he wants to go to the White House as Herbett Hoover, on the Republican ticket, of course, but above all as Her- bert Hoover bpe- has to} saddle. are Werk’s View Prevailing. As to whose view will prevail, regard- ing the Southern situation, there is no doubt of that. Dr. Work’s view is al- ready prevailing. While there has been much discussion as to the nature of the campaign to be carried on, an in- tensive campaign is already well.under way, there is no doubt of that. Ferhaps the office of Col. Horace Mann in the Munsey Building, where the Southern activity is manufactured, is unique. Certainly there is an air Of mystery about it. Col. Mann shuns uewspaper men and the numbers on the doors of his suite are in small pen- Sil figures. While one waits around hoping for a chance interview with Coil Mann, or rather as a newspaper man ‘does, calls come with fair regularity from the headquarters of the national committee. Col. Mann is of the South, knows its ways and is indisputably putting his knowledge into Republican effect. A steady flow of propaganda, too. is going South to the small-town news- papers, the weeklies and dailies. Re- ports here are that the representative dailies without an exception have lined up for Smith but that a surprising number of small newspapers in the rural sections are fighting him. The Fellowship Forum, a Protestant. fraternal publication, friendly to the Ku Klux Klan, is distributing the propaganda to the small papers. Mats and plate stuff,.as they are called, are being hand’ed in a steady flow.

It is not the humidity of his votes, but the subserviency of thein that should interest the Ameri- can people.

But the real point of interest in that record for the American people now, if Gov. Smith will defend it, is the picture of Tam- many putting the pressure on fine, aspiring young men like Al Smith, forc- ing them to use their courage, not upon the evils of Tammany, but in behsif of the friends of Tammany. The record will show how Tammany de- mands that a man of Gov, Smith’s in- telligence twist that intelHgence into a weapon for Tammany’s use; h it overlays his conscience with Tammany psychology so that his loyalty is to Tammany when Tammany’s interest clashes with that of his city. his State, or his SOT, . He Says. “T realize, and I am saddened by the fact, that this Tammany record faces a man who is the candidate of a major party for the highest office in the gift of the American people. I make no claim here that Smith is a Tammany plug-ugly. I henor him for having risen from the debasing subserviency of those who in the days of his youth sweat dimes from the poor through those that prey upon the poor—the saloon keeper, the tout and the prostl- tute. Record On Which He Rose. “This record is, of course, an old record of a young man, but the young man rose on this record, and today the issue is formed upon the elements that made this old record—the return of the saloon, which Gov. Smith as a young man defended so ably, so con- sistently, so loyally. But the Tam- many syst@m goes on today as it went on.100 years ago, and indeed as it will go on in all of our American cities un- less Gov. Smith and the sinister forces behind him are overthrown, Tammany is indeed Tammany, and Smith is its major prophet.” Reply Expected Later. Hampton Bays, N. Y., When Gov. Alfred E.

Mex., July 28 (A.P.).— Senator Bronson Cutting said today he had no comment to make on a recom- mendation made to the Republican State centr | committee that he be re- quested to align himseif definitely with the party before he is considered for the nomination for the Senate. James McNary, chairman of the Re- publican tate executive committee, who made the recommendation, said that although Senator Cutting has not announced wis candidacy, it seems to be taken for granted that the nomina- tion will be tendered to him. He de- clared that Senator Cutting is emi- nently fitted for the office, but “since his appointment he has made no state- ment as to his party affiliations, but hds been given Nation-wide publicity as a man who is entirely independent of party lines and who recognized obli- gations to no party.” The central committee took no action on Mr. McNary’s motion. Mr, McNary said later he hoped other members of the executive committee would agree with him, but if they did not ey could have his resignation by as ing for it. sommenting upon Mr. McNary’s ac- tion, the Santa Fe New Mexican, Sena- tor Cutting’s newspaper, said, “What evidently was hoped to be a bomb turned out to be a dud.” 5,000 Hear Heflin Attack Tammany Youngstown, Ohio, July 28 (A.P.).— Tammany Hall and Catholic heirarchy were denounced by Senator Thomas Heflin, of Alabama, in an address here this afternoon.

When he reached the beach the gov- ernor found a crowd of youngsters ‘in swimming and a small battalion of camera men waiting for him. He showed them that he could really swim. Walking into the still salt water, Gov. Smith started out with an overhand stroke once he was in water of swim- ming depth, and later turned a few somersaults in the wacer. Finally he made his way out to a float, pulling up there to join a number of adventurous youngsters who had gone out that far Mrs. Smith and the governor’s daugh- ters joined him in bathing. 'They walked out into the water with him a short cGistance until he advised them “That’s about far enough for you,” and then he struck Out alone. It was a sunny day, tne weather turn- ing out so ~xcellent that the governor was uncertain how long he would re- main here on the fitst vacation he has taken since his nomination at Houston.

FOX. The United State’ now has extended recognition to the Nationalist govern- mént as the de jure as well as the de facto government of China. The sign- ing of the new Sino-American tariff treaty so clearly constitutes such recog- nition that a formal statement by the recognizing state is regarded as super- fluous and unnecessary. Secretary of State Kellogg would not comment on.this phase of the Chinese question yesterday, but diplomats ,are unanimous in the view that the sign- ing of the treaty is recognition by nec- essary implication, and chat no other interpretation is passible under the dictates of international law.’ America, therefore, has stepped in and fully rec- ognized the Nationalists, while the League of Nations and various powers have been considering what steps, if av, they would ultimately take in this) direction, Unless unforeseen events occur, it 1S) regarded as virtually certain that the leadership assumed by the United States will compel Great Britain, Japan and other powers to recognize the Na- tionalist government as the de jure government of the Chinese republic.

HR WAR COLLEGE COMPILES OFFICERS’ READING LIST 247 Titles Comprise Course in Military Literature for Army Men. —_—-——_— MANY TOPICS COVERED An officers’ reading list volumes has been compiled by the Army War College. In order to make available to officers whe do not have access to extensive libraries, informa- tion as to literature of special value in their military education, the college has prepared a bibliography of selected literature relating to historical, politi- cal, economic, and military subjects which will be published for informa- tion of the service. This list of the college is selected from many works to provide a properly of 247 diversified course and is intended as an | outline to indicate the desirable scope of an officer’s reading It is not in- —— EE tend:d as an exhaustive bibilography and officers pursuing special lines will find it necessary to consult other works. The books included are distributed in five sections corresponding to sev- eral periods of officers’ service. This arrangement gives the list the character of a progressive reading course. While advisory is character, the list is recom- mended. to the attention of all officers as a means of enlarging their fields of information on subjects aligned with their professional work. The list contains no work on general literature or science. Exclusive of mili- tary history, the number of military works is very small. The list includes 19 volumes of American history to in- clude the Revolutionary War; 28, gen- eral United States history; 15, Civil War history; 24, World War; 10, English his- tory; 17, biographies of great statesmen; 24, political science; 27, biographies and memoirs of great military leaders; 1, psychology; 6, economics; %, French his- tory: 5, general history; 6, ancient his- tory. With a view to making the list of bookc available to officers, post and station exchanges will be authorized to finance purchases for their libraries un- der condition that they may charge rental for them on a basis estimated to reimburse the exchange for the entire expenditure within a period of five years. 7 REMUS GRANTED STAY IN DEPORTATION CASE Hearing Before Immigration Inspectors Is Deferred Until October. (Associated Press.) George Remus, whose incarceration in Atlanta Penitentiary for bootlegging was a prelude to his trial in Ohlo last year on the charge of murdering his wife, has obtained from the tmmigra- tion service a temporary stay of pro- ceedings looking to his deportation. While he was a prisoner in Atlanta the immigration authorities questioned his status as a citizen of the United States, and ordered him to show cause why he should not be deported. These proceedings were held in abey- ance while Remus stood trial for mur- der. Last week he appeared in Washe- ington and asked for time to fight the deportation case. He was granted un- til October 1, after which there will be a hearing in Ohio before immigration inspectors to determine whether he is an alien subject to deportation.

Only a few moments before Mrs. S. Virginia Brumback, an aunt of Mrs. Midaleton Johr:on, testifying as a re- buttal witness for the State, after the defense had rested its case, said that Robinson had on three occasions dur- ing the week of the shooting come to young Johnson's home and inquired for him. The prisoner denied emphatically yesterday, when he took the stand, that he had ever gone to Middleton John- son's home to see him. Weaver, chief defense counsel, in an effort to discredit Mrs. Brumback’s tes- timony, caused her to become excited. and, Mrs. Brumback arose and shaking her finger at Weaver, shouted, “I’ve told you the truth and I Know he came to the house because 1 saw .yTasAw way Witness Only Wants Justice. When Weaver asked Mrs. Brumback pif she were particularly interested in the case becaues of the fact that she was a relative of Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Brumback again fell victim ‘to he! emotion and, shouting. said, “Yes, 1 am, but all 1 want to see is justice done.”’ The morning and early afternoon sessions were devoted to the taking of defense testimony strong: called nearly-a score of wit- nesses in an effort to sustain Robin- son's plea of self-defense. Nearly all of the» testimony of de- fense witmesses concerned alleged threats against Robinson by both John Johnson and his son, Middleton. The first witness to be called today was a little tow-headed boy, George Webster Duncan, 10 years old. When Weaver asked the boy if he knew the seriousness of his oath, he replied: “Yes, sir, 1 won’t go to heaven if 1 don’t tell the truth.” 2:30 p. m., in Section 4. - Duncan told the jury of an incident upon which defense counsel based their Weaver and Arm-. pleas of self-defense The boy wit- nessed the collision between cars of Robinson and the elder Johnson five days before the tragedy. He told the court that the elder Joh’ » armed himself with a monkey wrench and advanced on Robinson, who drew a pistol from his hip pocket. The State previously had attempted to show that Robinson was the aggressor on this day. and that Johnson did not have a monkey wrench in his machine. T S. Morris, employed at a gasoline filling station, told the court that Mid- dleton Johnson had made threats in his presence agajnst Robinson Morris said the younger Johnson told him he was going to “get” Robinson for pulling a gun on him.’ Witness Seems Confused Cleveland Jones, proprietor of a fill- ing station told the court that both the Johnsons -were known generally as disturbers of the peace, and as drink- ing men. Jones then recited two in- stances in which the elder Johnson had come to his gasoline station while drunk and “caused a rumpus.” On one occasion Jones testiffed, he was forced to have John Johnson arrested J. W. Dudley, a defense witness, be- came confused on the stand this after- noon, during cross-examination by Horning, and declared that he had been with Middleton Johnson between 5:30 and 6 o'clock about half a mile from town, and that Middleton appeared sober. It was necessary for defense counsel to recall Dudley to the stand as their witness, but Dudley stuck to his story which was entirely different from that of other witnesses, who said that both Johnsons were drunk at the time of the tragedy. Hugh Miller, a banker; H. H. Mar- lowe, a realtor, and W. E. Jones, man- ager of a local farm organization, all testified that both Johnsons had meade threats against Robinson to them.

Jones testified that he heard the elder Johnson say he was going to “get” Robinson and that if he didn’t “my son will.” Marlowe recounted a conversation that he had had with John Johnson shortly before the shooting. Johnson, according to the witness, said that he wouldn’t stand for any man pulling@a gun on him. W. E. Rudacille; a lumberman, testi- fied that he had advised Middleton Johnson to keep away. from Robinson during the existence of hard feeling between them. The witness said that young Johnson told him Robinson was a coward, and was afraid to shoot any- one. Going Away?

GERMAN DIPLOMATS GRACIOUSLY RECEIVED Business Methods, However, Remain Far Behind Those of United States. By ALBERT W. FoX.,. France is slowly getting back to her prewar basis of normality and stability, and Paris is rapidly resuming the envi- able gn she occupied prior to the world conflict. The road to progress and prosperity at last seems open to the French people and steps toward ad- justment of France’s financial relations with the United States are now fore- cast in the near future as a matter >f course. A few weeks sojourn in Paris shows encouraging signs of progress all along the line. It also shows marked and fundamental changes in the view which the French people have taken since the war of their own problems and ob- ligations and it shows interesting and Incidental changes which have featured the transitory period since 1914. In short, the France of todav is not what it was a few yeurs ago. or even year. In the first place, the French people generally are recovering from that shell-shocked condition which made hatred of the old enemy the ail-domi- Nating consideration, even at the ex- pense of their own welfare. The Germans are no longer unrea- sonably feared nor despised. War songs still flourish at intervals in the music halls, but all efforts to keep alive resentment and ill-feeling are dis- couraged. last MRS. ELIZABETH TOWNE, the first woman alderman of Holyoke, Mass., who has declared herself a candidate for mayor of the city on a policy of “a new and square deal for all around.” good condition and is willing to sell It. Service at the hotels has greatly im- proved and the new hotel George V, in the residential section off the Champs Elysees, is a model for up-to- date sctryice as the French understand it But scarcely a-day goes by without American standpoint Rules for Drug Stores. at one of the most patronized ca the Champs Elysees. The waiter be- stirs himself at once, calls the chasseur, who darts out into a side street and of French matches which may or may not light, according to their caprice. Another unusual feature of Paris life Good Will Being Fostered. The tendency on all sides is to foster | good will and close up the war wounds. The German diplomats are graciously received everywhere. In short, the in- herent charitable qualities of the French people are again in evidence and French politicians find it increas- ingly difficult to feather their own nests by reverting back to the creed of hatred and fear. Meanwhile, whateyer anti-American feeling existed in the past Is gradually | fading out of the picture for the simple reason that popular opinion will not foster or encourage it. American Ambassador Herrick and his staff are doing their full share to- ward keeping relations between France and the United States on an amicable basis and Col. T. Bentley Mott, who Speaks French like a Frenchman. knows everybody and readily grasps the Frenc!; point of’ view, is perhaps the most val- uable asset which any American Em- bassy or legation has at the present time. Probably Lindbergh’s flight to Paris had more to do with snuffing out anti- Americanism than any other single event. But the visit of Mayor Walker, of New Lork, cemented the era of good feeling and the influx of American vis- itors adds a practical advantage from the French standpoint to the friendly relations. Brilliancy Returns to Paris. There are more dazzling lights in Paris, more snappily-built foreign auto- mobiles, more exclusive and expensive shops and more enticing feminine wear than ever before and the open air res- taurants in the suburbs, in the bois and along the boulevards are back to normal. And there are enough auto- mobiles and taxis now to provide traf- fic jams at any hour of the day, espe- clally when the races are on. Practically no traffic rules impede progress and there is no speed limit. Khe gens d’arms, or French policemen, stand at intersections with paper-rolled batons when traffic is heavy, but the chauffeurs and taxi drivers smile and ignore them if they are in a hurry. Yet there are very few automobile accidents. One particular chauffeur with whom I rode has been weaving in and out of Paris traffic, cutting corners and speed- ing along the boulevards for the past twenty years and has never touched another car or had even a minor acci- dent. And I understand that he is not an exception to the rule. The question of whether the French taxi drivers or the New York drivers are the most ex- pert is a frequent topic of discussion among Americans, Behind American Methods, In the broadgauge matter of twen- tieth century economic progress and business expansion, the French are far behind the Americans. One gets the impression that a committee of leading American business men could put France on her feet economically in a few short months simply by outlining some of the modern methods of adver- tising and twentieth century organiza- tion. Paris is ablaze with advertisements, but one can travel from Paris to Cher- bourg and scarcely see a sign along the miles of countryside which in America would be literally dotted with posters. There is a lack of farm machinery and evidences of primitive methods every- where. Primitive organization is most in evidence in the telephone service run by the government. It is impossible to pick up the telephone and call a mumber across the street with any hope of getting an immediate reply. The ¢ajl must be made and the receiver Kung up in anticipation of a wait of epywhere from five to twenty minutes, aiter which the government operator rings back and announces with pride that she has completed the call. One gets London almost as quickly as any Paris number, and a call from Paris to America can be made with as- surance that proper connection will be established in due time. Eight Months to Get Auto. The trouble with the Paris service is that the population has outgrown the primitive organization of the telephone operations, and there has been no money.to properly expand the service to meet modern needs.

FAIR PANAMA VOTING surances That Government Seeks Real. Election. (Associated Press.) Reiteration of assurances given the State Department guaranteeing a free and fair presidentiai election in Panama were voiced yesterday by Dr. Ricardo J Alfaro, Minister of Panama. tions sent by his government to all na- tional authorities admonishing them to exert every effort to insure impartial elections. This circular says, in part: “The government has the patriotic endeavor to hold a fair and free elec- tion, honestly showing the will of tthe people, and is bent upon not sparing any effort to attain it. The government desires to have the. patriotic satisfac- tion of showing that the people of Panama are fully capable of the highest civic functions ana of governing them- selves in the most straightforward and correct manner.” Penalty of removal from office is fixed for anyone violating the letter. or spirit of the electoral law.

? ,) Se QUALITY DECLARED. TO BE SHORTCOMING IN CAPITAL PLANNING Representatives of Public Make Decision Following Su- perficial Study, Is Charge. BOARD HOLDS CAREFUL SURVEYS ARE NEEDED Work Is Curtailed by Limit on Expenditures, Commis- sion Declares. The most striking shortcomings of the planning situation in Washington as it begins to be studied by the’ Na- tional Capital Park and Planhing Com- mission are not in the quantity but in the quality of the planning that has been done in the past and is being done today. The commission has discovered that all sorts of persons, those acting for private investors no less than officials representing the public, have been in- clined to mare and are making de- cisions of enormous consequence on the basis of very superficial study, without expenditure of time, effort and money toward perfecting their plans in ad- vance, which alone affords a justifiable insurance against wasteful expendi- tures in congtruction. The commission admits this is the case elsewhere as well as in this city and is characteristic of the present hurried age. While it is confident that studies already made constitute a solid groundwork and a reliable criterion to be applied to projects that may be pro- posed, it believes the answers to many local questions can not be found with- Out full and detailed study of condi- tions and the effects that decisions may have upon other elements of city plan- ning. Careful Surveys Needed. Careful surveys and investigations on the ground, as well as estimates of costs of various alternative solutions, must be found before it is reasonably certain that one solution is preferable to an- other, members of the commission ex- plain. Such full studies require time as well as funds, and the amount of work of this kind that the commission can do in a year is definitely limited by the limitation placed on expenditures permissible for personal services. A raising of the limitation would meas- urably increase the rate of progress Made in planning work. Although the commission reports un- expectedly good progress made in the form of legislation passed by the adjacent States of Maryland and Vir- ginia, and in securing thereby in each State a single authority with which to deal. it recalls that the basis of co- operation in planning and developing a a ee ee ee ee ee ee nEEEEEONEE e wv Library Join Kann’s Circulating Read all the latest Fiction at a trifling cost of 3c a day.

Members of the commission explain that it is difficult to draft general legislation for this purpose which wil) ‘ adequately cover all cases and all projects that may arise in the future. since in each project the relative in- terests of the parties thereto will be somewhat different. It is believed, however, that the same general basis for cooperative work as has for years been administered satis- factorily in connection with the Missis- sippi and Sacramento flood control projects and was outlined in legislation in Congress, would be applicable. This would amount to giving the commission a fund available for the United States’ contribution to pur- chases which could be entered upon in agreement with the appropriate authorities of the adjacent States, the proportion to he contributed by the United States and by the local authori- ties peing left to the commission to determine within general limitations set by Congress. mings. tractively trimmed.

Detroit's boast to having the best or most adequately lighted thoroughfa‘e. according to these technicians. began July 10, when a new five-light orna- mental illumination system was of- ficially turned on. This display pro- vides 20 times as much light as for- merly prevailed. State street in Chi- cago, which heretofore has beén na- tionally rated as the best lighted street, now is said to rank second. Among the first eighteen is Su- perior avenue in Cleveland, which has undergone a radical change in the past two years, owing largely to a civic editorial campaign waged by news- papers aroused over the _ increasing number of accident and holdups along this artery. Political action followed and an erstwhile vortex of shadows has become a great white gateway to the residential and suburban areas from the downtown district. The first eighteen best lighted areas, as rated by the electrical industry's technical laboratories, are: Detroit, Washington boulevard. Chicago, State street. Seattle, metropolitan area. Jersey City, Journal Square Plaza. Schenectady, Erie boulevayd. Salt Lake City, business section. Niagara Falls, Falls street. San Francisco, Market street. Rochester, N.

Bf . 4) Cold Logic Is the Guide Of Czechoslovak Ruler Prof. Masaryk, Who Rose From Poor Boy to Be President, Gives Big Part of Credit to His American Wife. Simple in Tastes, He Bars Top Hat, and All Cere- mony; Neither Hunts, Fishes, Smokes, Plays Games or Likes Radio. By JAMES A MILLS. (Associated Press Staff Writer). Prague, Czechoslovakia, July 28 (A P.).—From a poor coachman’s son to the presidency of the most virile re- Public in Europe, is the record of achievement of Thomas Garrique Mas- aryk, called the “George Washington of Czechoslovakia.” Author, professor, philosopher, psychologist, historian, statesman, he is one of the most re- markable figures produced by the World War. Although Prof. Masaryk has just celebrated hig seventy-eighth birthday, and will soon observe the ‘enth anniversary of his presidency of the Czechoslovak Republic, he is more active and energetic than a man of 4). Every day for the last 20 years, rain or shine, he has taken a two- hour gallop through the countryside on horseback. The American Civil War had not yet wMided when Masaryk as e boy was warning 50 cents a week as a lock- miith’s apprentice in Vienna. Today ae is chief executive of 14,500,000 sersons, receives a salary in excess of enat of the President of the United States, and. is known round the world, out, with all his fame and achieve- ment, he remains the modest profes- or of Slavonic studies that he was m a London university fifteen years 20. Bars the Top Hat. His tastes are simple, for he re- guses to wear patent leather shoes and 3 said to be we Only president in the 4orld who does not wear a high silk ‘at. Throughout Czechoslovakia he 2 known by his famous black slouch | hat and his severely plain homespun suit of drab grey. Prof. Masaryk attributes a large part of his success in life to the infiu- ence of an American woman, his wife, Charlotte Garrique, of Brooklyn, daugh- ter of the .resident of the Germania Insurance Co., whom he first met in Leipsic many years ago while she was great composer Liszt. For 50 years their union was of the happiest kind, termi- nated only by his wife’s death in 1923. As indication of his devotion to his wife and his ideas on the equality of the sexes, Prof. Masaryk took his wife’s maiden name, Garrique, as his middie name. Each of his children also bears that mame. One of the president’s sons, Jan Masaryk, now Czechoslovak minister to Great Britain, Married Miss Frances Crane, daughter of Charles R Crane, of Chicago, former American Miiisver to China. The president's Gaughter, Dr. Alice Masaryk, who, since her mother’s death, acts as “first lady of the land,” is head of the Czecho- slovak Red Cross. Has 30,000 Books. A visit to President Masaryk at his home, Hradzin Castle, the “white house” of Czechoslovakia, reveals a tall, erect, slender, kindly man, with lean, furrowed, earnest face, sparse hair and a short white beard. His small hazel eyes peer through rimless spec- tacles. His short striking facial fea- tures perhaps are his long, finely- chiseled nose and his walrus-like white moustache, the drooping effect of which gives him a sad expression, when his face is in repose. His manner betrays a slight hesitating gaze and a touch of diffidence. He is slow of speech and soft of voice. In Hradzin Castle are evidences every- where of President Masaryk’s academic training. Lined five feet high against every wall of his rooms are 30,000 books on every conceivable subject, many of them in English. For the philosopher- statesman is an omnivorous reader. One notices scores of volumes of the latest American fiction, and many works by woman writers. Although Prof. Masaryk is the author of many notable books on philosophy, sociology, psychology, history and political science, he prefers to read novels—not, indeed, as he says himself, for their “literary style or substance,” but for their socio- logical phenomena and for the lessons they carry of the actualities of real “We.

While the Czechoslovakian statesman does not go in for the radio, he 1s very fond of the phonograph. Once or twice a week he goes to the theater. He prefers concerts to operas or dramas. Frequently he invites a well- —— on ummm | KNOWN singer, actor or violinist to play et ee a at his home. Prof. Masaryk retires about 11 p. m., but seldom, sleeps more than seven hours. He subscribes to no formal re- ligious creed, and is against sectarian- ism. He is very fond of travel, and when his official duties permit, he in- variably passes his holidays abroad. He has a summer residence at Topol- cany. near Bratislava, and another at Lany, near Prague. Social functions of all kinds bore him, but he is a cheer- fu" hos. to men of science, artists and serious politicians. He does not play cards, nor is he interested in parlor games of any kind. Neither does he PRESIDENT MASARYK. Jane Austen, George Eliot, Marie Corelli, Dorothy Canfield Fisher and Willa Cather. English Classics Favorites. Among classical English writers, the president’s favorite authors are Shakes- peare, Addison, Macaulay, Scott and Hawthorne. One of his hobbies is buy- ing rare books, of which he has a fine collection from all over the world. Of Prof. Masaryk’s own literary works, perhaps his “Suicide as a Phe- nomenon of Modern Civilization,” “The World Revolution,” his war memoirs and his monumental ‘The Spirit of Russia,” a work of great erudition, are the most notable. He is also the author of books on logic, psychology, hypno- tism, philosophy, sociology, ethics and history. Although he speaks and writes seven languages with fluency, Prof. Masaryk prefers to write in his native Czech tongue. To a man so essentially literary and philosophic as Masaryk, political life offers no allurements. He looks upon public ofice as an imperative and pa- triotic duty to his country. In all mat- ters of statesmanship he applies the cold reasoning of logic and philosophy He analyzes every national and inter- national situation in the light of real- ities, not of theories or ideals, and acts as the trained logician would. He has traveled extensively, and has a wide grade furni- ture from. the world’s greatest mar- The stocks are so ditions in foreign countries. In 1918, he visited the United States and per- suaded the American Government to pronounce itself in favor of Czecho- slovakian and Serbian independence. Simple Tastes Retained. Like most men of action, the chief magistrate of his country is an early riser. Just before breakfast he spends half an hour in bedroom exercise and calisthenics. His midday meal is his principal one. Retaining trv simple tastes he acquired when a pos. boy, he likes the plainest Czech dishes, such as boiled beef and cabbage, pig’s knuckles and sauerkraut, pig’s head, blood sau- Sages and goose’s neck. His favorite dessert is plum dumplings. President Masaryk rarely touches alcohol, nor does he smoke. “Smoking,” says he, “is an unnatural and useless indulgence.” The president begins his official du- ties about 8:30 a. m. He remains at his office unfil 12 or 1, when he has luncheon with Premier Svela, or other friends.

Ford Reliability Trophy, which concluded its swnig around the country yesterday in Detroit, is none the less important, for it rewards those everyday virtues which the commercial user of aircraft prizes above mere speed. To those of us who have been read- ing the day-to-day accounts of a group of airplanes flying in what seemed to be a pleasure jaunt from city to city the system of selecting a winner ap- pears to be a vague and undetermined thing. As a matter of fact the race, if it may be called such, is judged mathe- matically, five variable factors being employed to determine the merit fig- ure. The points awarded to the contest- ants are determined by the following formula: The maximum Department of Commerce useful load is multiplied by the maximum speed and divided by the stick plus the unstick time the product being multiplied by the engine displacement divided by 50. This sounds very foreboding, but upon analysis it discloses that the greater the rated useful load and the greater the maximum speed the greater merit figure results, while the smaller the stick and unstick time and the engine displacement the greater the merit figure. Stick and unsticnk time, which fig- ure so prominently In the equation, are terms which originated among the “grease necks” around the hangars and are now accepted language in the best scientific circles. Stick time is nothing more nor less than the number of sec- onds it takes the plane to “stick” to the ground from the second its wheels touch until the ship stops rolling. Un- stick is the reverse, being the time of take-off. The advantage of a plane in which these factors are low is appar- ent. It not only enables pilots to get into and out of small fields safely. thus minimizing the hazard of forced land- ings, but also reduces thé maintenance cost of the airplane, for take-offs and ‘landings are probably the _ greatest \“wear and tear” items in the use of | the airplane. The factor of engine displacement gives each contestant an opportunity | to demonstrate what his product can do in proportion to the amount of en- ‘ergy expended and also makes it the- | oretically possible for the small single- |engine plane to compete on equal ‘basis with the large multiengine ships. In other words, it encourages the develop- /ment of better airplane performances per unit of horsepower. While the formula fictures the maxi- ‘mum speed and maximum load and rewards those whose figures are higher in this respect, racing Is discouraged. This is done by naking the contestant demonstrate in advance with a full load what his maximun. speed is. This figure is used throughout without re- gard to the actual speed made in each lap unless the contestant should fall below 80 per cent of the maximum credited speed. The same with the use- ful load The contestant ts rated load at the end of each lap un- less he should arrive with less than 75 per cent of that figure. Should the contestant fall in complying § with either of these rules his actual average speed and actual load is used in figur- ing his merit for that lap. Thus there a maximum figure for each plane which was ar- rived at before the start of the tour All that remained for each contestant | Was to continue to maintain approx!i- | mately that standard day in and day out for the duration of the tour. Entry No. 18, a Waco piloted by John P. Wood, had the highest original merit figure—850.4. For most of. the laps he maintained that figure but on one occasion it dropped to 651.

And that point is demonstrated not only by the winner but by every entry that finishes. Things began to brighten up at Hoover Field last week, where the Po- tomac Flying Service has been revived under the management of the Mount Vernon Airways, headed by E. W. Robertson. Two Eaglerocks were taken to the field for passenger work. In the meanwhile officers of the purchasing company are considering two alter- na /es in cabin ships. They are dis- cussing the purchase either of a large trimotored transport, such as the Ford Stout or two small single-engined ships powered, however, with Pratt & Whitney Wasps, so that altitude may be gained more quickly in flights over the city. Andrew Nash, secretary of the old organization, has been retained at the field as office manager. Thomas Boyd also will stay with the new company as promotion man, as will D. A.

L. Ofenstein, chief of the en- gineering section, aeronautics branch, Department of Commerce). Q. What engines are used in commer- cial airplanes and what horsepower do they develop? A. The Curtiss OX-5 engine has been the so-called “back bone” of commer- cial aviation. It is rated at 90 horse- power. Thousands of these engines were on hand at the end of the World War, but they have been used so ex- tensively that now it is almost itmpos- sible to buy them. The airplanes in which these engines are used weigh around 2,000 pounds. Airplanes weigh- ing 3,000 to 4,000 pounds employ the Wright Whirlwind engine, which de- velops 200 horsepower. The use of this engine is growing rapidly. Larger air- planes employ the Pratt and Whitney Wasp engine, 410 horsepower, or else two or more smaller engines. A few foreign built engines are also used, as the Anzani series, 30 to 60 horsepower, and the Ryan Siemens, 120 horsepower. Q. Are the wings of airplanes covered with linen? A. Before the World War and during the early part, linen was used. How- ever, because it was expensive and dif- ficult to obtain, a substitute was sought. This led to the development of a long-strand cotton which is still used. Q. Why are dirigible balloons covered with aluminum paint? CATERPILLAR CLUB ROSTER BEING MADE 92 Lives Recorded as Having Been Saved by Para- chute Jumps. An effort to make a complete roster of that elusive organization known as the Caterpillar Club, composed of fliers whose lives have been saved by jumping in parachutes, is being made in the office of the Army Air Corps. The club gets its name from the fact that such fliers were saved by parachutes made of silk produced by the caterpillar. A list of 94 life saving jumps has been made wut, dating from that of William O’Connor, a civilian, at Mc- Cook Field, when. he was saved by an Army parachute after a privately man- ufactured ong had failed to function. The outstanding member of the club, Cf course, is Col. Charles A. Lindbergh whose four jumps put him ahead of the other members. The Air Corps is asking that all who know of unregis- tered Jumps report them to headquar- were int- irst ters. Four members of jhe club tiated at Bolling Field ~ are F Lieut. L. L.

What are the names of the sur- faces at the tail end of an airplane? A. These are some of the control sur- faces and are arranged in pairs, two | horizontal and two vertical. The hori- zontal ones are the stabilizer and ele- vator and the vertical ones the fin and rudder. Q. What are longerons? A. These are the longitudinal mem- bers which extend from the front to the rear of the fuselage. Q. Why do some airplanes have the lower wing back farther than the up- per? A. This is known as “stagger” and is done for several reasons: (1) It gives better vision for the pilot in landing. (2) It reduces the lability of reduced lift due to the interference of the wings and, (3) It changes the location of the center of lift. Q. What is airplane “dope?” A. Dope is a compound of cellulose nitrate or acetate. A number of coats are put on the fabric. It shrinks the fabric, strengthens it and makes it wa- tertight. Q@. How much gasoline does an en- gine similar to the one Lindbergh used burn per hour? A. Approximately 13 gallons or pounds. Q. Why do wooden propellers have their tips covered with metal? A. The tip and leading edge are cov- ered because otherwise the wood would be cut or damaged by small stones thrown by the slip stream, by weeds and high grass Or by spray when used on seaplanes. Q. How much gas did the Shenan- doah hold? A. About 2,500,000 cubic feet. 78 Von’t rug the risk of losing your’. securi- ties or other valuables left behind when you go away, when for a small sum you can protect them in a Safe Deposit.

MERGER PROPOSAL Charge Price Fixed by Inter- state Commerce Commis- sion Is Too ‘High. DECLARE LOWER FIGURE WOULD BENEFIT PUBLIC Public Hearing on Question Expected, With Arguments by Representatives. (Associated Pres.) New proposals looking to the com- pletion of the projected merger of the | Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad with the Pere Marquette system were made yes- the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Chesapeake & Ohio Co., which now holds the commission's permission to acquire control of the Pere Mar- quette, asked authority to buy 174,900 shares of the latter’s common Stock, now owned by the Nickel Plate Rail- road, at-a price of $133.33 per share. The Chesapeake & Ohio also asked the commission to modify its original finding in the merger casé and to per- mit the company to sell 800,000 shares of its own new stock to its present stockholders at $100 per share. The funds derived from the new issue will enable the Chesapeake & Ohio to com- plete its Pere Marquette purchase. The commission previously ruled that | the Chesapeake & Ohio should issue but 200,000 shares of new stock and re- quire its present stockholders to pay $159 per share for it. The Chesapeake & Ohio-Pere Mar- quette merger represents a partial suc- cess in the endeavor of O. P. & M. J. Van Sweringen, of Cleveland, and their associates to bring about a merger of Eastern Trunk Lines. After the;com- THE WASHIN GTON POST POST: _SUNDAY, Be BONY, BUT USEFUL IN COURT si Policeman H.

In dealing with details of the pro- posal, ‘the Chesapeake & Ohio was | authorized to pay $110 per share for | Pere Marquette stock owned by the) Van Sweringens, and was given permis | sion to negotiate a price for’the addi- | tional Pere Marquette stock owned by the Nickel Plate Railroad. | The petitions yesterday sald that the | Nickel Plate was willing to take $133.33 for its Pere Marquette holdings and declared this to be a fair value. As to the new Chesapeake & Ohlo stock issue contemplated, the petition protested against requiring the com- pany’s stockholders to pay more than par for new stock, questioned the com- mission’s legal power to fix a higher figure, and argued that a lower figure was in the public interest and a mat- ter of justice to railroad stockholders. It is expected that the commission will give oportunity for hearing and argument on the new proposal. ‘Treasury Employe Quits After 59 Years John F.

Because their horse was so thin and poor-looking that the Government was unwilling to assume responsibility for its care, two colored men. escaped charges of transporting liquor in Police Court yesterday and were charged only with possession of intoxicating liquor. Prohibition Of*cers Montgomery and Cornett spied a ramshackle wagon drawn by an aged and bon hors: early yesterday morning in Jackson street northeast. Three colored men were loading cartons on the wagon. The officers followed the wagon a _ short way and then drove up beside it. Two of the men jumped off and ran. The driver, Oliver Johnson, 35 Jackson street northeast, was arrested Later Edward Joseph Spriggs, 38 Jackson street northeast, was seized. Both were charged with transporting and possession of intoxicating liquor and six cartons of alleged liquor were con- fiscated. The horse and wagon were also confiscated and taken to the Sixth Precinct Police Station House. Spriggs and Johnson were taken before United States Commissioner Needham cC. Turnage and held for action of the Police Court. They were then taken before Judge Isaac R. Hitt in Police Court. In the meantime, ficers discovered they had a “white elephant” ou their hands in “Buck,” the horse. His condition was bad, to say the least, and they were afraid that he would not live over the week-end. Besides, they discovered that they would be responsible for the horse and would have to feed and stable him until the case was finally disposed of. Laying their. woes before the court, they secured a nolle prosse on the trans- porting charge ,so that they would not have to keep the horse. Judge Hitt concurred in the decision and fined the two men $50 or 15 days in fall each on the possession charge. Judge Hitt then issued an order re- leasing t horse from custody, which was delivered to the Sixth Precinct authorities by Thomas Beckett, attor- ney for the defendants. Lawyer Beckett led “Buck” away amid the sighs of relief from the station house force, which had been racking its brains with the problem of what to do with “Buck.” the arresting of- The Weather ai TODAY’S SUN AND TIDE TABLE Sun rises eee ns sb ok oe AS PM. 8: 06 | High race 5:27 6:00 ‘23 | Low tide.. i.

The convention of the National Asso- ciation of Colored Women which will ye formally opened this afternoon at $:30 o’clock at a mass meeting at the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church when an address will be made by Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, has its work carried on mM this country and in Africa by fourteen elected officers, an executive board, two special boards, twenty ma- jor departments and twenty minor de- partments, five regional federations and 44 State federations with city and county clubs. Although the organization as a whole devotes its efforts, in general, to social work, each regional federation spon- sors the type of uplift most needed in its particular section. State groups are engaged in establishment of per- manent headquarters in capital cities. The national body will dedicate the national headquarters, recently pur- chased at Twelfth and O streets north- west, during the present session. Has Many Federations. City and county federations of this organization have been active in estab- lishment of community centers, health centers and in cooperation with social welfare work of various municipalities. Many of their community projects re- ceive aid through city government ap- propriations, the money being adminis- tered by the colored women’s organiza- tion. State and city federations have as an ultimate aim the direction of the policies of their educational, health and social uplift programs. State and regional groups ha." tributed to social service § schools through scholarships whereby social workers receive training especially development of work in This work has been sponsored interracial movement which brought members of the National sociation of Colored Women legislatures of their sevreal all parts of the country, measures of special interest. The association is said to be polit- ical, but nonpartisan.

Rome, July 28°(A.P.).—Premier Mus- solini is 45 years old tomorrow. With typical thoroughness he threw off the heavy burden of official duties and sought the seclusion of the farm near Predappio, where ne was born In scenes where he ean recall his youth, the premier is giving the entire day to his wife, children and near relatives, The only echo of official life to reach remote Carpena, as his farm is called, consists of messages by the hundreds congratulating him. One communication was _ signed “Your Most Affect:onate Cousin Vic- tor,” being from Kin; Victor Emman- uel. The premier Is or e of the wearers of the Collar of Annunziata, the high- est Italian decoration ranking him as a cousin of the sovereign. Most significant among all this flood of messages are those signed by priests and cardinals. Despite recent restric- tions placed by “ardinal Gasparri on relations between the church and the Fascist government many high ranking persons in the Italiar church sent messages.

Hits In Victory Holds Sox Scoreless for 7 Innings in Second Game. Goslin, Harris Drive in Winning Runs; Mar- berry to Rescue. Special to [he Washington Post, HICAGO, July 28.—Stanley Har- ris and his Nats invaded Comiskey Park this afternoon and, to the @mbarrassment of Chicago fans, won both encounters of the double-header with the White Sox. In the opener, the Nationals battered Red Faber, vet- eran White Sox spitballer, for an 8-to- 5 victory. The nightcap contest was won by Washington after youthful Bob Burke held the perplexed Chicago- ans to only four. blows, two of which, however, resulted in Chicago’s only scoring comeback of two runs. Washington's game all final count being 4 to 2 Hadley and Jones are expected to be the selection of Manager Harris for the Sunday matinee iwin bill. In to- day’s opener, the Hariismen had a gala sixth inninz, when thcyv clouted Faber’s pitching for five runs off six hits. The fally rescued them from their 5-to-2 Handicap and left them safely ahead, for. thereafter. ‘red Marberry. who Succeeded Brown = — New York. Combs,cf.. . Meuse!. lf... Ruth,rf ‘ Gehrig, ib.

Auteuil, France, July 28 (A.P.).— Big Bill Tilden’s surprising defeat of Rene Lacoste in the first singles match of the 1928 Davis Cup challange round may be the cause of the French star’s reconsidering his decision not to defend his American singles championship this year. Lacoste, who has won the American title for the last two years, announced recently that he would not go to America this year, but after losing to Tilden yesterday for the first. time in the last five times they have met, Lacoste indicated that he might change his mind. “It may be another story next time,” Rene said after yesterday’s defeat. This was interpreted to indicate that Laccste may take the trip to America after all although he is §tiH- unwilling to make a flat statement to that effect. It 1s expected that he will.make a definite decision soon (Fl- (second {IN - RUBBER ~3 (ME, The Pirate A.

The grand stands were packed with 40,000 cheering peo- and cere- ic picture of ecstatic youth. Outside the stadium and many foreigners who came to impossible to obtain tickets at any price, jammed the streets and plazas s0 tightly that delegations of athletes of a number of nations had difficulty entering the stadium. Three hundred Americans—-one oO! the largest national representations— participated in the parade of the na- tions’ athletic prowess. Holland’s competitors numbered’ 400, and Germany’s and the British Empire’s 300 each, but Britain's dominions and overseas possessions marched as individual, units, scat- tered through the long line, which took an hour to pass the prince consort’s reviewing stand.

CFretas July 28—The Lincoln Fields summer turf season came to a close today with the running of the $10,000 Chicago Heights Handi- cap. The final stake engaged a big band of. western 2-year-olds. The crowd on the final day was one of the largest of the season, there being about 17,000 on hand when the big field of 12 plater sprinters went to the post in the 6-furlong first race. Karl Eitel, 2-year-old son of Ply- meélian-Pinkie, carried the apple blos- 60m silks of John J. Coughlin to vic- tory in the handicap. He came from behind and scored a brilliant victory over Zacawelsta from the Three D's stable. Vermajo, also from the Three D’s stable, was beaten another neck and finished third. The victory of the Coughlin colt came as a Surprise and in the $2 mutuels he paid $26.92 to win, $9.80 to place and $8.74 to show. The Three D's youngsters paid $622 to place and $€.26 to show. rhe stoutly backed Belle of America and unbeaten until this race, had no excus®s to offer.

I Baltimore, Md.. 28.— Believing Baltimore is an ideal spot for breeders to bring and seil young thoroughbreds, the Maryland Bloodstock Agency, Inc. has arranged to conduct a sale of year- lings in the sales pavilion at the Ti- monium Fair Grco-inds on Monday, Oc- ‘tober 1, which is an off day on the Maryland vaciny calendar, coming at a time when the thoroughbreds move from Havre de Grace to Laurel. With Timonium offering ideal gtabling accommodations and first-class facilities for loading and unloading horses and Baltimore easily accessible to the big breeding farms of the coul- trv, many promirent breeders will con- sign coming racers to this sale. While entries for the sale do not close until August 6 those received to date represent the best of families in both this country and Europe. They represent leading sires and are from well-producing mares. The yearlings to be sold will be at Timonium a few weeks prior to the sale, and during this period may be rmapected July Sepoy, Favorite, Wins In Empire Feature |3 Empire City Race ‘Track, July 28 (A.P.).—The Empire meeting came to a ciose here today with the running of the Mount Kisco Stakes and it was won by Sepoy, favorite at even money. The meeting was not a financial success The weather, combined with the very cheap horses which performed during the 21-day session, was the direct cause of small crowds. Monday the ease will run at Saratoga, where a O-day meet will be held. The Mounts Kisco Stakes, worth $4,060 to the winner, drew out only three horses with Sepoy favorite. Dicing was second choice with Juggler the out- Sider. Dicing' made the early pace, but at the middlee of the turn Juggler took the lead but the boy allowed him to go wide. Sepoy came through on the inside and drew out to win by a length and a half. Juggler was sec- ond by six lengths. BAINBRIDGE PARK RESULTS. FIRST RACE—PF ive ang Pi bne-her furlongs.

Major Patton Organizing High Class Army Polo Team Quartet Will Compete Against Entry in International Matches in Septem- ber—Army Captains Add Strength. Argentine By CHARLES A. WATSON. T's junior polo team of the United States Army, which made such an enviable record in the _ recent junior polo championships of the United States, has returned to Mitchell Field, Long Isiand, the Army polo cen- ter, with its mounts where it will par- Island with a special view toward de- ticipate in further tournament on Long veloping a high goal team for the open champlonships. The Army four, captained by Maj G. S Patton, jr., of Washington, D. C., gave a clever exhibition throughout the matches in the junior champion- ships, which were held at the Phila- delphia Cricket Club, Philadelphia, Pa., but lost the title gained last year in the final round to the Old Oaks Four, from Rumson. N J. The other members of the team, MaJ. Cc. C. Smith, Lieut. M. Jones and Capt. George Huthsteiner, together with Maj Patton, exhibited exceptionally accurate, stroking during the matches, and did much destructive work against the defense of their opponents. Close observers of the tourna- ment remarked at the excellency of the soldiers’ mounts, which com- pared favorably with those of any team in the matches not only in hardiness and speed, but in condi- tion and stamina as well. In this connection Army followers will be interested. to note that about one- half of the mounts used by the Army players: were ms owned, smooth team play combined with hard, The final round of the Junior cham- plonships was fast and furious, but the Old Oaks, led by Arthur Borden, the Princeton star, and a son of that polo veteran, Gen. Howard Borden, proved too much for the soldier four and it went down to defeat under the inces- sant hammering of the Rumson for- wards, To Maj. Patton goes the credit ct capable management and organization of the team. The equipment was the best and the condition of the string near perfection. With the junior matches a thing ot the past. Maj. Patton will build up a bamner four, which will be capable of going to the open championships, cap- able of playing any team in the coun- try. Capts. C. L. Winkerson, C. H. Ger- hardt and P P. Rodes, ineligible for the juniors on account of their handi- caps, will be available for the team. During the past few weeks Capt. Wil- kerson and Capt. Rodes, both of the Army squad, have been trying out for paces on the team, which will repre- Sent the United States in the interna- tional matches against the Argentine Four in September. Both exhibited a sterling game and will boost the Army Team considerably by ened ap- pearance in the line-up. Washingtonians have been apeichatly interested in the junior squad on ac- count of the presence of Maj. Patton in the line-up, as he was formerly com- mander of the Third Cavalry, stationed at Fort .

Six of Canada’s seven lawn tennis championships passed into the hands of the United States today. Only in the women’s junior singlics was Canada able to save something out of the wreckage, the brilliant young To- ronto player, Miss Olive Wade, defeating Miss Mary Greef, of Kansas City, in the finals, 5—7, 6—4, 6—3. Miss Wade had suffered a defeat at the hands of Miss Greef during the early rounds of the open women’s singles competition. Otherwise, American competitors swept everything before them. Wilmer Allison, of the University of Texas, for- mer national intercollegiate champion, defeated his fellow-countryman, John Van Ryn, of Princeton, in the finals of the men's singles, 6—2, 6—4, 6—3, In a match that was much closer and harder fought than the score indicates. The women’s title passed to Miss Midge Gladman, of Los Angeles, when she downed Miss Greef, 5—7, 6—1, 6—1. Miss Greef captured the first set, but had not the stamina to make so much as a fight in the last two. ed one inning against the White Sox. Five days later he started and finished against the Tigers, winning 5 to 2, In his fourth out he gave three runs in five innings to the Cleveland Indians. Then came the game of April 28 against the White Sox. Crowder, start- ing, was coasting along with a lead of 6 to 3, entering the eighth inning. The Sox staged a spurt by bunching three hits with an infield error and when two runs had been scored with runners HE pitching sensation among the major leaguers for the 1928 season is not a minor-league phenom who brought a cash price of $100,000, but one who was palmed off in a give- and-take exchange a year ago.

With approxi- mately 40 players on hand, al- though previous workouts have been lengthy, Griffith now ts of the opinion that they have not been strenuous enough, as the size of the squad has prevented the statisticlan to inspect the data of the |\losing box score on April 28. Perhaps a technicality was there that could Coach Sheppard Names Team and Expects It to Rise to the Occasion in O!> += Interest High. as Sera CS 5 all the pleading in the _ world players from working steadily. He believes that a shift system’ would | enable the players to. get more con- | tinued work and he also is leaning to- ward the staging of “Regular-Yanni- gan” games at intervals in the after- moon, on the ground that these develop | the player’s baseball instinct This ts not along the lines of Man- | ager Harris’ ideas as, since he has been in charge of the Nats, he has felt that these games do not give the play- ers as much work as would the same time consumed in pragtice. Boss Bucky's contention has been that in these in- terclub games the players do not get many chances either afield or at bat. While the Nat owner, who foots the bills, is not definitely decided about ordering these games, he is seriously considering doing s0, believing that they should be played in addition to the regular practices in order to give the Harrismen work under the same conditions as they will be called upon to face when the schedule starts. This, he believes, will bring out weaknesses in team play and give the players prac- tice in quick thinking under competi- tive conditions. Another innovation planned is the acheduling of exhibition games later in the season than in the past and then to book them more frequently. “If possible,” said Griffith, “I would like to have the team play every day after it once starts and I am going to try to book games in rapid order.” The Washington Club owner was not sutisfied with the condition of the players when they returned from Tampa te start the present season and he and Manager Harris guaruntee that this condition will not obtain itn 1929. Sunday baseball is now permissible in the Smoker City and, with Sabbath practice and games on the program, together with steady play in ‘Grape Fruit League and interclub games, and possibly sessions in the morning when contests are booked for the afternoon, this addition work is bound to bring beneficial results. Word has been received here. that Tampa is developing into a fine base- ball town and this does not make President Griffith feel badly. Already he is looking forward to big “gates” for his Sunday games and he is re- serving these dates for his best at- tractions. His experience in past years has shown him that, with the excep- tion of games staged at St, Peters- burg, outside games have hardly drawn enough revenue to pay for the transportation of.his players and he is planning to book practically all con- tests in 1929 at Plant Field, Tampa. These lengthy trips in the heat in a packed bus have not done the Na- tionals any good, which is another -reason why he hopes to make the other teams come to see him. He will, of course, have to book a few games away from Tampa in order to get re- turn contests, but he states that these occasions will be few and far be- tween and he hopes to work on a “two-for-one” basis, which he was able to do last year in one or two cases. The Washington owner is now in correspondence with several teams who already have put in a bid for Sabbath dates and, as many of them can not play on Sunday at their own camps, he feels that he has an edge when it comes to trading dates, Incidentally, he also’ looks forward to coming out better financially this year than in the past, except follow- ing his two championship years, for four extra Sunday dates are bound to show a difference in the club’s coffers. And, for the benefit of those who do not know, it might be mentioned that the item of training expenses is a big one, totaling around. the $20,000 mark before the ticket sellers at the Clark Griffith Stadium’ have taken in a single penny.

In the six innings they tallied ten hits from which were gathered three runs in the fotirth, fifth and sixth innings In ‘the fourth, a walk to Rice was turned into a run. The Nats packed the bases with none out in this frame on Goslin’s single and another pass, Rice scoring.on Bluege’'s sacrifice fly. Cronin then killed the embryo rally by hitting into a double play. In the fifth, another twin-killing limited the ‘Harrismen to a single run. Afte: Harris cracked out, a one-baser, Ruel hit into a double play. Then followed singles by Burke, Barnes and Rice in rapid order, the latter being nipped when he rounded first too far Still a third double play hurt the Nats in the sixth, nullifying any good which might have been obtained from Goslin’s opening one-baser.

C, had not yet formally acted, but had only appointed a commission to examine the situation respecting the amateur rule differences, General Sher- rill stated: “That's bosh, the commit- tee’s action was definite. .It is true 4a commission is to be named, but its function is for the purpose of handling the results of our decision against the federations of these two sports until such time as they revise the rules.” The international committee's deci- sion, especially respecting football, has been followed by prospects of a new fight over the “broken time” principle which. is the rock splittting Olympic opinion. Most of the continental Euro- pean nations and the Latin Americans are strongly opposed to ylelding on this issue although it develops that Brazil and France are supporting the majority led by the United States, Great Britain and the Scandinavians. The I. O. C. is much interested in the preliminary report made by the Amer- ican members on the progress of planus for the 1932 Olympics at Los Angeles, especially the proposal of the Califor- nians to charter ships to carry the Eu- ropeans by way of the canal zone. Spain’s bid for the 1936 games. although not yet acted on, is strongly supported by. the Latin Americans. Pre- mier Primo de Rivera has written to the I. O. C., promising full governmen~ tal support and suggesting Barcelona as the site if it should be found that Madrid is not fully equipped. Coffroth May Open California; Track San Francisco, July: 28 (A.P.).—Tan- foran track, famed in the early days as the center of horse racing in Califor- nia, is again, to resound to the beat of ponies’ hoofs. Announcement was made today that the track, near the city limits of San Francisco, will be opened next fall un- der direction of James (“Sunny Jim”) Coffroth, former San Francisco boxing promoter and since 1916 part owner and director general of the race track at Tia Juana, Mexico. The Tanforan meet wlil be of 20 days’ duration, from October 13 to November 3, and will be a nonbetting proposition. Betting is illegal in California. Through his assistants here, Coffroth st-ted that no gambling of any kind would be countenanced. A year ago an attempt was made to revive racing at the track through 4 “share” betting system. A (certificate issued gave a subscriber-ownership in the horse he selected and entitled him to a percentage pay-off if the horse won or placed. The courts ruled phe system illegal.

By WESTBROOK PEGLER, Special to The Washington Post. EW YORK, July 28.—The com- N mercial failure of the Tunney- Heeney affair of Thursday eve- ning has sent the serious thinkers .of the prize fight profession off into lu- gubrious meditations regarding the fu- ture of the industry.. For the time be- ing; a melancholy atmosphere pervades the entire trade The stock of the Madison Square Garden Corporation, which occupled the same position with relation to the cauliflower business that Government securities hold in other lines of commerce, declined 30 per cent in anticipation of she solitude which the custome:s accorded Mr. Gene Tunney at the Yankee Stadium and on , his seems to be one of those | the whole this seems tc | sportsman who, it was alleged times that try men’s souis. I believe, however, that the industry is unduly alarmed over a minor dis- aster which was due to faults which were or should have been plainly ap- parent from the beginning. And, im- portant among those fauits | would mention the complete lack of that stimulating element which contributed so largely to the commercial triumphs of the past, the element of larceny. 1 do not believe this weakness has been accorded the importance that it deserves in the panicky casting about for explanations of the soltude of the ball ground. This may have a sordid sound, but it would be well for the prize fight in- dustry to take a practical view of the situation and admit to itself that the finest achievement of the proud history of the million-dollar era of pugilism were effected in an atmosphere pungent with the reek of sordidness. I thought of this when the few cus- tomers who did violate Mr, Tunney’s seclusion Thursday evening set up 4 clamorous demand for Jack Dempsey, pointedly ignoring Mr. Tunney, who sat in his own corner waiting to be in- troduced, and would not be silenced for almost 5 minutes. 7 Merely as a practical statement of the situation and with only the pleas- antest personal feeling toward Mr. Dempsey, who is a man of friendly charm outside the. .ring, 1 would re- call, nevertheless,. that he was the foulest fighter since the time of Kid McCoy, and that when he was heavy- weight champion of the world he rep- resented the flower of the sport. ‘ He. slugged Luis Angel Firpo from behind, he slugged Luis Angel when he was down, he foully hurled the mid- dleweight Carpentier against the ropes with a wrestling hold and leaped upon him while he was off balance to smash him flat, he was even so foul that in Shelby, Mont., he refused to fight the fig harmless Tommy Gibbons unless he ‘ ‘ ¥ pi de hi he could bring into the ring the referee of his choice, Mr. James Daugherty, of Philadelphia, and, in Chicago, after he had knocked Tunney down, he tried to stand over him during the count as he had stood over Firpo in New York. The gate receipts in Chicago were the highest ever amassed and in sup- port of my theory that sordidness and commercial success will recall that Mr Max Boo Boo Hoff, the celebrated citizen of Philadelphia, was casting aspersions in the direction of Mr. Tunney on account of a business disagreement with respect to a contract which had been negotiated by the bribed some athletes to fake a baseball gaine. The boxing match of Thursday eve- | ning was fought on a plane of sports- manship and there had been no stim- ulating hints of larceny in any of the negotiations or training camp activi- ties. In view of the wide disinterest in the contest, and remembering the intense partisanship of the customers at the more glamorous occasions of the past. I infer that the customers de- mand larceny and I have full confi- dence in the capacity of the prize fight industry to give them what they want. Therefore, I anticipate no per- manent Slump in the fight business. Yale’s Sports Profit $215,000, Says Report New Haven, Conn., July 28 (A.P.).— Athletics at Yale University are on a high plane of sportsmanship, in the opinion of Prof. George H. Nettleton who, as chairman of the board of con- trol of the Athletic Association, has given his annual report to the Yale Cor. poration. The report made public tonight showed that finances, the nonscouting agreement in football, and friendly re- lations with Harvard and Princeton through the dual agreements made up the greater part of the text. As a whole, the athletic year was outstand- ing above all others. In general operat- ing expenses, the profit balance was about $215,000, which will be applied to debt reduction or writing off items in new capital investment. Through the nonscouting agreement, eligibility questions have disappeared from the field of controversy and col- leges concerned have been askéd to re- new such agreements for 1928 and most of them have done so. . Discussing Yale's athletic policy, Prof. Nettleton said it was founded on “faith that all college sport rests properly on friendly understanding and mutual confidence.” 7 rane - Pe. esd el end | lof the sixth for a pinch hitter, and the | Browns way- | Crowder “ was inseparable 1) ke-— Umpires—Hart, | J RE PPS .

CHANGES IN HIGH SCHOOL COACHES TO BE EFFECTED: LAMAR SEEKS Glenn, Lowery Quit Posts At Tech Rumors Have Rauber New Coach for Central Team. Tech Opens Training Camp at College Park, Sept. 3. By ARTHUR A. HEYWOOD. OME changes in the coaching and physical training staffs of the local high schools will go into effect this fall. The recent announce- ment that two changes would be made at Eastern High School to fill the vacancy of track coach caused by the resignation of Gordon V. Rath and to fill a vacancy on the physical training staff caused by the promotion of Jack Collins to assistant principal was sup- planted by the fact that two important changes will be made at Tech High School. It was learned from a reliable source and confirmed yesterday that Coach Gienn, who piloted Tech to a baseball championship last year, the first it had enjoyed for several years, and Coach Lowrey, basketball coach, would not return. Coach Glenn does not contemplate returning to Washington. this year. THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. JULY 29. 1928. ~ Playground Marks Expected To Fallin Meet Finals Aug. 21 | i ; Coaches and Athletes Confident of Surpass- ing Many Existing Records—Post Prizes Incentive for Diligent Training. ROOF that the municipal play- | p ground field and track youngsters are brimming over with confi- dence this year is evinced by the daily calls received by the playground office anent the best records in interplay- ground meets in past years. Through & process of collecting the statements of all of the 50 coaches, playground Officials have reached the conclusion that most of the records of the past are in danger of being smashed, Morgan Loftus, of Corcoran Play- ground, is convinced that a youngster, Allien by name, on his team will breag the present 100-pound class running high jump record, which is 4 feet 11) inches, established, in 1926 by Casaca, of the Johnson Playground. Jimmy Donohue, mentor of the Filimore Team, is touting W. Mitchell to smash the 85-pound running broad jump mark of 16 feet, set Everett, of | Plaza, also in 1926. J. by Bertenshawm. leader of the crack cieorgetownh Piayground squad. claims that 4. Naylor will lower the I1-second mark for the 100-yvard dash. Louis (Knocky) Thomas, of Maryland University fame, set the record in 1924, dur- ing the summer before he entered Maryiand, and, incidentally, this was his .first track conquest, as he did not participate in this form of sport i: high school. While at College Park, he won many honors while Coach Lowrey is planning to take up junior high school work. So when | the Board of Education meets it will | ame men for these vacancies at the two schools, has been Central High Ty Rauber, a former a recent Washington and Lee star. Rauber has his ap- plication in for a position as a high school coach, but his appoint- ment may be delayed until a va- cancy arises in the physical train- ing department, it was learned. Another change which rumored involves School and Central and The first rumblings of the approach- | ing footbal season were heard yester- | day as Tech High School made plans fo. its 10-day training camp at the University of Maryland. Coach Elmer P. Hardeil will take his group of Tech | candidates to College Park on Sep- | tember 3 Coach Hardell plans to take one of the smallest squads to College Park in years. Last year around 45 men were taken and this group was found to be| too large to work with in the limited space of time. This year the squad will not number rrore than 36, including Manager | Arthur Storey. The men will be se- | lected in the next week or ten days and | will be notified by letter. Tech, always in the running for the high school championship, will have a few men back as a nucleus, but must build in a number of places. Losses by graduation were principally among backfield men and this year almost a new set of ball carriers will have to be de- veloped. Tech lost Rooney and Shipman, two stalwart tackles; Mills, Ritter, Bailey and Kriemelmeyer, backfield men | Among those who will return are Capt. | Ward Oehman and Oyster, guards; | Edelblut and Hissey, ends; Leo Winston, | , center, and Florence, a backfield man. At the spring football meeting | called annually at Tech, between 80 | and 90 responded and signified their | intentions of trying for places on the team, but this number will dwindle | to almost half when actual practice starts. Although Tech will be in its new school in September it may be neces- sary to still hold football practice on the Tidal Basin or at American League Park, which will ere cutting the squad. CANADIAN OPEN TITLE TO DIEGEL FOR 3D TIME CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17. good enough in the face of Diegel’s phenomenal game, Smith, on the other hand, was apparently out of the running when the final round began but a brilliant 67, which tied the course record, boosted him into a tie for runner-up position with Hagen and Compston. The day’s honors for consistently brilliant golf, however, went to Al Watrous, of Grand Rapid, Mich. Al shot two rounds of 69 to bring his 72- hole total to 286, good enough to land him just back of the three musketeers tied for second. Willie MacFarlane, of Tuckahoe, N. Y., was in a fine spot at the end of the first 54 holes, but a 75 on the last round ruined his chances beyond re- pair. His 289 placed him just after Watrous. Two stro back of him were Harry Cooper, of Buffalo, and George Christ, of Rochester, N. Y. Diegel’s victory was a reward of steady golf. His 282 represented rounds of 73, 71, 70 and 68. Hagen had shot rounds of 69, 70 and 72 and then went out on the last 18 in 33, three under par. He cracked on the inner nine, however, taking a 40 that placed him two strokes back of the leader. The defending champion, Tommy Armour, of Washington, was tied with Joe Turnesa, Elmsford, N. Y., for ninth place with 293. A 79 on the last 18 put Armour out of the running. Larry Nabholtz, of Houston, Tex., and George Von Elm, of New York, turned in scores of 294.

He repeated his 35 on the out nine Friday and then took two strokes off par on the homeward trip with a 34 field with 143. The leader started ahead of his est competitors in the final round, every one was sure he would collapse when word came back that he had scored 3 above par on the first fou holes, and he kept three above the ninth hole where he sank a putt for a birdie to tally 38. He hung on grimly in the home stretch for an- other 38 and went to the showers with some fear that his 76 for a total of 291 would not stand. Brother Al made the first bid to overtake Abelard, going out in par 36 to be only two strokes behind at the 63d hole. But the younger Espinosa faltered on the way to the goal, taking 40 blows to reach the clubhouse, again four behind. The brilliant national champion made the next attempt to overtake the leader. Johnny fought like a tiger against bad breaks and a few critical poor shots and some bad lies, but not finding his game inspired could not re- cover more than four of the seven strokes he was behind at the start of the day’s play. Farrell never got a brilliant round out of the four. He got his keen eyed put- ter to work only a few times during the 72-hole grind, his irons fluked at un- fortunate moments and by spells, his driver led him into the woods. Rial Rolfe, of Chicago, former Univer- sity of Illinois champion, finished with 302 in a.tie for tenth place with Jock Hutchison, former British open chaim- pion. Rolfe was high amateur of the meet. Chick Evans, the only amateur who ever won this event, totaled 310, or 18 strokes more than he had last year when he tied for seventh place. Chick played with Farrell today and aside from his poor putting outshot the na- tional champion. It fell to Francis Gallett, of Milwau- kee, to make the best score of the final day, a 71, but he finished in twelfth place with 303, owing to a bad 81 this morning. Bill Tinder, of Anderson, Ind., and Phil Hessler, of Briston, Okla., who got the lead the first round with 70 each, slumped materially, the Hoosier with an 81 for his last round, taking 305, while Hessler, owing to @ fatal 85 this morning, totaled 310.

Navy Plebes Show Promise In Summer Track Meet Midshipman Coleman Wins Three Hurdle | Races With Ease; Duval Stars in Sprints; Fourth Company Takes Meet. Special to The. Washington Post. NNAPOLIS, Md., July 28.— By A scoring in every event except the high jump and 440-yard run,, the Fourth Company won the summer track laurels at the Naval Academy this afternoon. coached by Ensign Nichols and The company team was cap- tained by Midshipman W. D. Coleman. Ensign Wichols was one of the main stays of the academy track team the past spring in the 2-mile run. Mid- shipman Coleman promises to outshine even the great Whitey Lloyd before he finishes his term at the Academy. Cole- man won the 100, 220, high and low hurdles with ease. Considerable material was unearthed during the presses of the meet which should ‘strengthen the varsity team in another year, Thompson, says. Duvall in the sprints and broad jump shows promise, especially in the latter event. He cleared 20 feet 9% inches this afternoon. There were also two or three other jumpers who promise to he almost as good as Duvall. Midshipman Head, Shaid and Mang look very good in these events.. Mang is a son of Louis Mang, Navy’s gym instructor. The dis- tance jynen have not had sufficient time to get in the best of condi- tion, according to Coach Thomp- son, but Dropp and Smyth seem to have something for the mile run. Mang and Fang, in the half mile, are full of promise, too. Fraziér, Bronson and Hughes ran wéll f the 440. and should be very goc in another year. In the weight events, the st of i eee aes pi eats e dey. was Underwood, of Fourth Cain- |}pany, with a first in the shot and dis- cus. He also was fourth in the javelin. He is improving fast and is going to be a big help to the varsity team at his first opportunity. Cox and Chambers are two big fellows who will make any of the weight throwers go when they get the idea of how it is done. They have speed and weigh but that is all at present, according to Thompson. Kiern, in the javelin, will be very good in another year. He threw 151 to- day and has fine foru.. He has a good running mate in James, a Washington boy. Both have a bright future before them. Conway and Beer in the high jump will bear watching. Just at present they both use the scissors jump and do better than 5 feet .8 inches. Before the year is over they will be well up with the best varsity men when they. have learned a new form, Thompson predicts. Bandy and Head in the pole vault did well today. Bandy did 11 feet in practice during the week, but could not do better than 10 today in tying with Head. All in all there seems to be some good material in this plebe class and it is possible that it all has not been heard from yet. Coach Thompson feels that with a little practice and work by all concerned and this plebe track team will be the best ever to represent the academy. The point score of the meet today follows: Fourth Company, 52%; Sec- ond Company, 41; First Company, 39%; Third Company, 10.

« A > 9 PRICES OF BONDS EASIER IN DULL, BRIEF SESSION Week-End Profit Taking and Credit Apprehension Affect Quotations. FOREIGN ISSUES STEADY New York, July 28 (A.P.).—Prices generally were easier in today’s dull and brief session of the bond market. Utilities and some rails made small advances, but most of the list felt the pressure of week-end profit taking and general apprehension over the credit situation. U. 8S. Government bonds were a bit firmer, but comparatively few changed hands. Total sales were less than $4,000,000. While during the past week bond prices gradually moved lower as ad- jJustments were made to prevailing loan rates, market observers believe that a more severe test will come early next week when the month end demand for funds for commercial use will be felt and the comparatively ample supply probably will be curtaled. St. Paul 3%s gave the outstanding demonstration of strength in the ralil- road group today, advancing more than 3 points, but on a small turnover. The other St. Paul issues sagged. West Shore 4s extended their recent gains another 1% points, while the Missouri Pacific issues made fractional gains. The decline of Dodge Brothers 6s, which sagged to 94 and then recov- ered fractionally after opening at 95, down 1%, points net on the day, was the feature of the industrial group. The movement evidently reflected un- certainty over the possibility of the Success of the proposed merger with Chrysler, the meeting of Dodge stock- holders at Baltimore today having been adjourned until Monday. Coppers lost their gains yesterday. Public Service of New Jersey 4%4s and Columbia Gas é& Electric 5s were strong spots among the utilities. The foreign man General Electric some lost ground. British Kingdom 514s attracted most closing fractionally higher. Liberty First and Fourth 4!4s showed the widest gains in the U. S. Govern- ment group. BANK CLEARINGS. list was steady 6s Ger- recovered United buying, Bank clearings in the aes States for the week ending July 26 aggregated $9,348.,- 348.000. as against $16,918. 095,000 last week and $9,232.741.000 in this week last vear. according to Bradstreets There is here shown a decrease of 14.3 per cent from last week. but a gain of 1.2 per cent over the like week a year ago Canadian clearings agerecated $338,546.000. against $348,556,- OOO last week and $238.046.000 in this week last year.

Baltimore, July 28 (A.P.).—The pro- posed $245,000,000 Chrysler and Dodge merger hung in the balance today, de- pending on whether a few thousand shares of Dodge stock, still needed, should be deposited with the merger committee of the Nodge organization before Monday. Stockholders of Dodge Brothers, I[nc., met today, heard that the Chrysler Corporation insisted that 90 per cent of each class of stock must be de- posited with the committee for the merger plan if the proposal were to be carried through, and adjourned until Monday morning in the hope that the condition would be met by that time. No official figure of the exact amount on deposit was given but it was esti- mated that with about 850,000 shares of the preference stock outstanding at present, less than 50,000 shares were needed to complete the 90 per cent quota and that less than 100,000 shares were needed to ...ake up the percentage of 1,935,000 outstanding shares of Class A. The necessary quota of 500,000 shares of Class B stock was in the committee’s hands, BALTIMORE MARKETS. Baltimore, July 28 (A.P.).—Egegs, no trad- ing. Butter, creamery prints, 47@49.

PAGEANT TELLS AIM UF PARENT -TEACHER MOVEMENT INU. 6 University of Virginia Amphi- theater Will Be Scene of Spectacle. 1,000 WILL BE IN CAST AT COMING CONVENTION Dramatic Episodes to Portray What Organization Seeks to Do for Children. Special to The Washington Post. University, Va., July 28.—What the Parent-Teacher movement is endeavor- ing to do for the children, not only of America, but of the entire world, will be told in pageant form next Friday night, August 3, in a spectacle to be presented with a cast of almost 1,000 in the McIntire ampitheater of the Uni- versity of Virginia. With A. Winfield Hoeny, widely known interpreter of Biblical drama in the title role of “The Interpreter,” this pageant will unfold the seven cardinal objectives of education recognized by the Parent-Teacher movement. This pageant has been written by Miss Lucy Barton, of New York, espe- cially for presentation at the eighth an- mual convention of the Virginia Con- gress of Parents and Teachers which will be in session at the University from August 1 to 4. But Miss Barton has so told the Par- ent-Teacher story in dramatic form that this pageant may be presented wherever the movement has spread Plans are already under way to have it enacted on a national scale in Wash- ington during the spring of 1929 and it may also be given next year as a part of several other State conventions. Story of the Pageant. The story is a simple one of transi- tion from misunderstanding and con- flict to cooperation on the part of the father and mother and the typical citi- zen, with the teacher, for the benefit of the child. This unifying of purpose Is brought about through “The Interpre- ter.” enacted by Mr. Hoeny. The story is told in seven episodes, one for each of the cardinal objectives. The lack of understanding between aoe and teacher is shown in the prologue which discovers them at odds over what shall be done with the child. The citizen is indifferent, except for a fear that taxes for schools may increase, To these comes The Interpreter ‘ith his message Wort home membership is the first obiective taught in the initial epl- sode. which shows the creation of the home by the youthful lover and hls beloved, guided by Eros and Psyche. Later Education comes to aid as the family group grows Health for every the second episode, child is taught in in which many boys and girls from the Charlottesville schools take part Here is a tooth- brush drill and a right posture drill, and finaliy Education tells the children the foods they must eat to bulld their bodies. Tools for living and learning appeer in the third episode. First there are the simple three R’s, but later these taie wings. A colorful historical scene comes in this episode, with more than @ score of the gréat figures of the past passing in review before the throne. of Education. Whole Community Helping. Che fourth episode depicts the awak- ening to the call of vocational effec- tiveness ‘irst, the parents call in the astrologer, the crystal gazer, the phre- nologist, and later the quack psychol- ogist, to direct the future of the child. But the Interpreter points out the need for clearer direction as a parade of the professions appears. “Golden Hours” is the title of the fifth episode, in which the wise use of leisure is taught. In a street scene dangers to the children are shown, but Education leads the way to group rec- reation. In the concluding episodes useful citizenship and ethical character are taught. The Interpreter unfolds a view to ever-widening loyalties. First is shown the child trfined in duties to his family and to his neighbors, but the scope of his interest is widened to include the State, the Nation and, at last, all the peoples of the world. This concluding scene is the most spectacu- lar of the pageant, with 1 ‘ore than 700 men and women, boys and girls taking part. The entire community of Charlottes- ville and the University of Virginia 1s uniting to sponsor the pageant. F. E. Merrifield, president of the Charlottes- ville Chamber of Commerce, is general chairman of the pageant, with Mrs. Harry Semones, of Roanoke, president of the Virginia Congress of Parents and Teachers, as vice chairman. Special Music ané Lighting. Mr. Hoeny, in addition to rehearsing for the title role, is directing the speak- ing actors, leaving Miss Barton free to attend to the general directing and to stage the great ensemble scenes.

Sunday, July 29, 1928. CONTROL OF CONGRESS. Both parties are beginning to appre- ciate the importance of the Congress campaign. Long-headed George Moses, who saw Republican policies ripped up by a nominally Republican Senate, is laying plans for making strenuous ef- forts to gain a real Republican majority. He knows that Herbert Hoover, if elect- ed, will be thwarted at every turn if the Senate should be Democratic. The Presidency is a place of vexation and dis- appointment when not supported by Con- gress. Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Harding and Coolidge found it impossible to drive Congress, and all of them were forced to approve of legislation that they detested. Probably a strong factor in Mr. Cool- idge’s withdrawal was his realization that if he remained in the White House he would become involved in bitter con- troversies with Congress. His last act in connection with Congress was to pocket the communistic Muscle Shoals bill, which ran contrary to all of Mr. Coolidge’s ideas of common sense and public policy. This bill was rammed through Congress by a bloc which had obtained a stranglehold upon the legis- lative machine. Weak-kneed Republi- cans and Democrats alike supported the bill, although they were at heart op- posed to it. If the Hoover administration so great- ly desired by Republicans is not to be a dismal failure a Republican Senate must be elected. The retention of power by a party traitor like Norris, of Nebraska, who is not a Republican but a commun- ist, will mean the ruin of Hoover’s plans. Senator Tydings is likewise a long- headed politician, and on his side he realizes that Gov. Smith must have a Democratic Senate if he is to succeed. The Maryland senator is up against a harder problem than that which his col- league, Moses, is tackling. There is a better chance of Republican gains in ‘the Senate than Democratic gains; and more important still, there is no embarrassing split between the Republican presidential and senatorial candidates, as there is be- tween Gov. Smith and Democrats who as- pire to the Senate. Gov. Smith is a wet, and everybody knows it. Many Demo- crats up for reelection or seeking elec- tion to the Senate are dry, and must make a dry campaign or be beaten. The best they can do is to stand upon the Houston platform and sidestep Smith’s wet program. It is already suggested that senatorial candidates in dry and semiarid States must avoid appearing upon the same platform with Gov. Smith, lest they be tagged as wets and marked for slaughter. The problem be- fore Senator Tydings is to help these dry Congress candidates while promoting Smith’s wet candidacy. No doubt Sena- tor Moses will freely and publicly offer his sympathy to his Maryland colleague, and emphasize the despairful nature of the effort to elect wet and dry Democrats at the same time. Republicans and Democrats who are anxious to see their party successful in administering .the Government will vote for their party candidates for the Senate and House, whether these men be wet or dry. The country is sick of the spectacle of an impotent Congress and a President madé impotent through lack of party Patriotic Republi- cans would rather see Congress Demo- cratic, if Al Smith is to be President, than to have another season of botchwork and ..communism by the Norris bloc charged ‘up against the Republican party. Both parties are opposed to Govern- ’ ment competition with private enterprise my. ae i Ly i a 2 > ie ‘a ie ae that all existence, physical and have said so in their platforms. But they should lay more emphasis upon.this issue, which is thrust forward by cranks and radicals on the fringe of all parties. a GREAT FALLS BRIDGE. It is expected that the War Depart- ment will act soon upon the application for permission to erect a bridge across the Potomac at Great Falls. An act authorizing construction of the bridge, subject to the approval of the Secretary of War, was passed at the last session of Congress. Plans have been drawn and have received the approval of the Na- | tional Capital Park and Planning Com- mission. There is genuine need for a bridge across the Potomac at this point. Officials of both Maryland and Virginia admit this, but their States have no funds with which to build a bridge. A private cor- poration proposes to construct and op- | erate the bridge, obtaining its revenue from tolls. The War Department is em- powered to fix the rate of toll. The bridge would be used by pleasure seekers, to whom the route up Conduit road heretofore has ended in a blind, and by tourists passing between the North and the Valley of Virginia. Farmers and others of the Virginia side would find the route down Conduit road a quicker approach to Washington. Examination of the highway map of the Great Falls area proves that a bridge could be fitted in nicely with the existing road scheme. Connecting links could easily be con- structed so that through tourists could be shunted around Washington, saving their own time, and relieving local traf- fic congestion. The toll feature is not an obstacle. This is an equitable method of raising funds for construction of great spans. The Delaware River Bridge in Philagel- phia is a toll bridge. The Hudson and Hoboken Tunnels are maintained by revenues from tolls. Collection of toll makes it possible for those who use a bridge to pay for its construction and maintenance. The toll system is merely an adaptation of modern installment pur- chasing. It is believed that the question whether or not a bridge can be constructed across the Potomac at Great Falls without running the risk of interference with future power development is now under consideration. It would seem that this question could be easily answered and the bridge plans adjusted accordingly. A bridge at Great Falls would be a great public convenience. It would make possible a pleasure drive of unsurpassed beauty along both shores of the Po- tomac. The War Department, after it has been satisfied that the structure is planned so as to allow for future utili- zation of the falls, should grant the permit. TRAINING IN SPEECH. With the “talkie” movie supplement- ing the radio’s phenomenal dispersion of speech, the old saw about silence being golden and speech silver is on its way to obsolescence, so far as utterance for public uses is concerned. Almost any one who has anything to say has his opportunity to be heard. Educators are now beginning to see the trend toward placing a premium upon the power of clear and accurate speech. So it is now suggested that the teaching of the child in the use of the vocal organs is of great individual and social importance. The cultivation of habits of restraint and balance in speech will react upon the entire psychology of the child and aid in overcoming the primitive tendency to immoderation in action and expression. Everybody knows the value of good addréss, but to aim at its development from childhood up has not been of great concern. According to the opinion of those who have care of the youth educa- tionally, this in the future is to be definitely sought by affording to the young a systematic training in voice and expression. The “talkie” movies are already be- coming an object lesson in the worth of early training for the best employment of the faculty which, more than any other, carries a recommendation or a condemnation. THE RAVEN OF CANCER. A French specialist in the field of can- cer research offers the startling hypoth- esis that it is caused by emotional] ex- cesses. His view falls into harmony with the theory of some scientists that all intelligence is derived from the emo- tions, and that these in turn are pro- duced from the chemistry of the body. The advanced bio-chemical school holds and intellec- \ | Spey Fee Re ay WOES a en, Wee x tual, is merely a working out of for- mulas in the vast laboratory of the uni- verse. Such metaphysical reachings out into the ether of space for the final neuron or electron do not work their way very deeply into the common thought, and may be left to their pro- posers. Nevertheless, the possibility of cancer arising from ether interferences—cross- currents of ether waves, so to speak— has had very respectable scientific voic- ing. The French savant carries the matter into fine particularity and sug- gests that etheric action upon physical tissue accounts for the dread disease, when the emotions, which are by-prod- ucts of neuronic action, have been over- stimulated in any way whatsoever. This, he says, may be either by excess in dancing, movie excitation, outdoor And indoor sport, marathon contests, or other | overexertion. | Whatever may be the cause and what- | ever the types of manifestation of can- | cer, to throw the disease back upon the emotions and make these chargeable does not help much toward a solution of the problem. The Galapagos turtles, which seem almost to span the ages in their life duration, are rated as least subject to emotion and are known to be cold blooded. But who cares to be a turtle? If the French physician is right, then mankind will have to face the penalty of enterprise, activity and enjoyment by risking the extinction of the within a few centuries. Thus the raven of cancer croaks upon the lintels of mod- ern civilization! species WOOD CONSUMPTION, Using more saw timber than all the other nations of the world put together, | and accounting for more than two-thirds | of the world’s consumption of timber of | all kinds, the United States sets up this | wood consumption sign along the high- | ways of contemporaneous progress and | asks the world if it needs any other confirmation of the claim that it is doing a bigger amount of building than other lands. With a native endowment of vast reaches of timber, the country has had the incentive to turn to the use of wood when other lands less fortunately placed might have had to use stone, and even sod, for home and other construction material. Yet this country, which has been responsible for the development of most of the wood substitutes, and which | annually makes enormous drafts upon concrete for construction work, terial for its building necessities. About 80,000,000 acres of American timberland is capable of producing, says the United States forest economist, and 250,000,000 cut-over acres will produce full crops under the proper forestry guidance. This is something of the story of replacement of the millions of used- up acres of timberland which the United States is telling to the world, with the assurance that it never intends to yield its paramountcy in the use of wood. Its wood production is expected to take care of the rate of consumption. PROTECTING THE BEACHES. Protecting the beaches of the Jersey coast from contamination is something that interests many others beside the New York and New Jersey authorities, who, together with the War Department, are threshing out the question of -dis- posal of the garbage of the metropolis and all other factors of possible con- tamination. No matter how wide the ocean, the tides and currents are always active in their courses. The wide sweep of these scavengers of the waters is best seen in the Sargasso Sea, where are gathered, from the North Atlantic down to the Gulf of Mexico, the debris of vege- tation and the flotsam and jetsam of drift, into a vast area which may loosely be compared with that of France. So the disposal of the immense quan- tities of garbage of New York by towing it out to sea and dumping it by no means ends the story. In time quantities of it reach the coast and contaminate waters which should be kept clean and fresh, as the untainted saline sea would have them. Complaints are made and the facts attested that the operations of the New York authorities under the permissive warrant of the War Depart- ment for the dumping of the garbage at points that were deemed sanitarily suf- ficient, do not prevent drift toward the beaches. Abatement of pollution is entirely possible, however, if the direction and habit of the tides and currents are taken into account and the dumping made at a distance from the shore that would place the offal in the course of currents that sweep away from rather than to- ward the Jersey coast. The beaches are the | people, and while there is nothing of pol- | stall | holds to wood as the most suitable ma- | (947 ZZ, ty Y, Ih J ~~ 3 Ss . “ q Of, LYLE 4 y AL A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Cex, recreational property of all the lution that suggests taint at present, it is the determination of the authorities to place the Jersey north coast beyond will eventually solve the garbage problem in the best possible manner, CZAR OF CHICAGO. It is intimated in Chicago that Mayor Thompson has had a definite change of heart. Once upon a time he was king unto himself and continued the even tenor of his ways imperturbably in the face of criticism. But he has suffered several crushing blows of late, and it is rumored that he is a changed man as a result. Big Bill, so the story goes, is getting ready to clean house. He has three more years of office, and he in- tends to devote them toward making of Chicago a model American city. Organizations opposed to crime, of _which there are many in the Windy City, apparently are not taking the talk of in- ternal political house cleaning too seri- ously, for they are now considering. a suggestion that their activities be pooled, with Vice President Dawes in command of their forces after March 4. The sug- gestion was embodied in a report sub- mitted by Maj. George Paddock, chair- man of the Chicago crime commission’s finance committee. The Vice President’s skill as an organizer would be invaluable, he said. With such a combination, co- ordinated and working in unison, much of the useless repetition of work by the many anticrime groups in the city would be eliminated. It is a valuable suggestion. Chicago crooks and professional politicians are a powerful, canny lot. They realize well how best to pit their strength against that of the unorganized public, and in the past they have regularly come off victorious. It will take a strong man to do them to death. Gen. Dawes is such a man. The divided activity of the many anticrime bodies that have been active in Ghicago has been laughed at by the underworld. If anticrime groups are combined under able leadership, how- ever, criminals and the politicians who defend them will find themselves blocked. It seems likely that Gen. Dawes would be inclined to accept such a post were it offered him. Surely there could be no higher civic duty than aiding to make safe a community. Cleaning up Chicago is a gigantic job, big enough to chal- lenge even Gen. Dawes, who has been handling gigantic jobs most. of his life. Furthermore, it is a job to capture imag- ination, one that from the standpoint of satisfaction in work well done would have few equals. If Mayor Thompson is ' making ready to turn over a new leaf, the anticrime czarship of Chicago would be made less arduous. Nevertheless, the position should be established, if only for | the assistance it might render a city 'any possibility of pollution. The comple- | tion of New York’s incineration plants administration that needed so many months to discover the value of virtue. — —_—_- + BUSINESS STATISTICS. Expert accountancy has developed in a single. generation from the alleyed small beginning of a Philadelphian, who gravitated from machinist into watch- maker, from watchmaker into book- keeper, and then specialized as an analyzer of business accounts. ‘Today it is a profession whose magnitude it would be difficult to state. The man who deals with the facts of business as he creates them and the man who figures the facts of business as they are laid before him, are individuals at the ex- tremes of the business scheme of things; and the former often gets much of the credit that properly belongs to the latter. Without the business statistician, the big business men of the day would find themselves floundering in a sea of trou- ble. A mouser in departmental statistics in the graduate department of a nearby university some years ago, who ran down some serious errors of compilation and was encouraged to lay his con- clusions before the departmental au- thorities in Washington, and at once had thrown open to him an_ important salaried position, had the instinct. that today is much more usual because the training for such is more general. The Department of Commerce in a statement issued through Mr. Lane, of the Bureau of the Census, states that nearly three hundred specific instances of the use of statistics in business have been collected, and the mystery of violent convulsions in periods of industrial and commercial activity have had _ light thrown upon them. Information that could not be gained except by collective action has been compiled and used to great advantage. The statement sug- gests to the business‘man the resources which he may not have availed himself of and which, when properly assimilated and adapted to his undertakings, may make all the difference between success and failure. Statistics are the anatomy of business operations, and it is better for the man of business to study them with the tissues living upon them than as skeletal remains of a lost enterprise.

TE leaders of the political parties ‘§ 88 well as leadérs of womeh’s or- ganizations community and the moral a health of “ay hap egg othe most interesting developments in the campaigns of both parties, each trying to solve the question: “What do women expect from politics?” Women, on the whole, do not ap- pear to be expecting much in the pay of political office for only a handful of the millions of women voters are aspiring for local, State and national offices. But they do want the party in power, whichever one it is to be, to ensure home security, peace and pros- perity for the country for the next four years. Women and home today mean not only the woman in the kitchen but the woman who makes a home, does her own work and yet manages to either make the family income or add to it and also take an active interest in community work, school, church and club affairs. Such women will take the time to cast their votes on election day, without fail. They may not particular- ly aspire to inclusion in social regis- ters but they do want to be counted among the patriotic American citizens who cast their votes. Of course, the women of the District are cut out from such participation in nation wide suf- frage. But many of them can vote by mail in other States or live just across the border-line in Maryland and Vir- ginia. The home woman today is quite a different person, therefore, than the home woman of yesterday and the day before, whose vision diq not extend beyond her kitchen window or her front door. The women’s clubs have done much to broaden woman’s view in this regard. For its size Washington is well blessed with organized groups of women and most of them are progres- sive, forward looking and play a real part in civic affairs here. That th@y could play more of a part is a secret they are learning day by day. Any evil condition that exists in the Na- tional Capital could be quickly cured if the club women of the city determ- ined that it should not exist. Fural and Urban Problem. While the women ¢« gni ation lead- ers realize that there is much work to be done in organizing the rural woman as well as the urbanwomen into groups which will enrich their lives and make them more valuable to the cities and communities, yet, in the present era, many more women belong to organiza- tions and groups than did ever five or ten years ago. The automobile and the telephone and, of course, the radio, have brought the woman living even in Sparsely populated districts closer to- gether They have inspired them to call meetings and to work ‘ogether for better conditions in ‘he schools and crurches and the community. From a psychological viewpoint both the Republican and Democratic parties have been wise in choosing their watch- words, expressed in different ways, stressing the home and public morals. These are the things which the women of the Nation consider of ultimate importance. No one can doubt their sincerity in supporting one party or another in which they see the most likelihood of having their tdeas along these lines maintained. At the cam- pa.gn headquarters the realization is apparent that it is not the regular party women’s vote or even the organ- ized woman vote that will spell success fo. either party in the fil., but the vote of the thinking woman who is in- dependent. Another rather distressing fact, from a politician’s viewpoint, ts ‘3 appear to be thinking alike on the outstanding issues of the moment as affecting the home, the the Nation. This is one of within the parties, are not inclined to say, “My party may -e ever be right, but my party, right or wrong.” Family Vote Fallacy. And it is also true that the theory held—or perhaps only formerly held— that women vote as the men of the fam- ily do and choose the political faith of their ancestors is a fallacy, At the headquarters of the great national women’s organizations in Washington groups of women from all the States gather to discuss political, civic and welfare issues, or Just stop in for a visit and a cup of tea. It is not unusual to hear one of these women say that her father and husband are Republicans or Democrats, but she intends to support the opposite party. The influence of women on the votes of the country in the days before the franchise for women was very real. Today the wife is apt to influence her husband's vote. Of course, there are exceptions, but thie is the general trend of the women’s conversa- tion at the national centers. It is for this reason that the women who have worked with the women in the cities and communities make the most valuable workers in either party. A woman who has been an organization or club president and has traveled about the country talking to women of all classes will know just what reactions the actions of the party will have on them. She will even be valuable with that potential bugaboo of all the parties, the absolutely stay-at-home woman who lis interested in nothing outside of her home, even the issues which apply to the home. These women would sway an enormous power if they went to the polls on election day. The truth of the matter is they never do. The surveys of all the women’s organizations on the women voters show thus far that the woman who goes to the polls as a rule is the type who js interested In what is going on in the city, the community, the church or the school. Liaison Plan Applauded. From an entirely nonpartisan view- point, the women in organization work ‘n the country express gratification at the recognition by the Republican party of the value of women’s experi- ence with women’s organizations in ap- pointing Mrs. F. Louis Slade as “liaison officer” between the organized and un- organized women. She is to be, in addition, a means of contact between the home owners. and the State and local political workers and organized groups. Mrs. Slade- has long been a power in women’s organizations, and was president and one of the organ- zers of the National League of Wom- en's Voters, a nonpartisan national or- ganization of women. Another woman in the Republican party who has earned influence in the women’s organizations is Mrs. Medill McCormick, candidate for Representa- tive in Congress from Illinois, not a sup- porter of Hoover at Kansas City, but is @ regular Republican. Mrs. McCor- mick has been identified with the suf- frage movement from her eariy girl- nood. She was the leader in the move- ment for the formation of the National League of Women Voters, separating from the group of women who formed the National Woman’s Party, under the leadership of Miss Alice Paul. Mrs McCormick has also taken deep inter- est in the industrial women’s organi- zations, and perhaps has more influence with the organizations of women in industry than any other laywoman in the Republican paity, at léast The Democratic party has also its women who hold a balance of power in the political world as well as in non- partisan women groups. Mrs. J Bor- den Harriman belongs to many organi- zations of progressive women, including the National League of Women Voters, and has had much experience with women in industry and their organi- zations, as a laywoman Miss Agnes that women, except for the regulars HARRIS 6&6 EWING Senorita Clara tary of Labor under President Wilson, is another woman who would be an as- sé, to the Democratic party as liaison officer between home and industrial groups and the party leaders Farm Women Need Leader. In the efforts to organize women for political purposes no matter what the effect on the elections may be, a great service will be done to the women, ac- cording to many of the women leaders. Miss Phoebe Warner, who has spent her life in the interest of farm women, said lr a recent report to the General Fed- eration of Women's Clubs that there are 6,500,000 farm women in this coun- try who need leadership and organi- zation. This Miss Warner describes as the greatest “undone club work.” “The greatest waste to the nation,” she declares, “is that of the unorgan- ized talent and power of our farm wom- en If they were organized as thor- oughly as city wo:nen and their hearts and heads and hands were functioning in unison with the welfare of thelr Hart Wilson, daughter of the Secre- home communities, they would in time Left—Miss Katherine Tancill, of the Quota Club. do more for farm relief work, rural} education, civic righteousness and home improvement than all our legislators | will ever do.

LET tte 1O THE EDITOR District Commissioners Held Justi- fled in Not Granting Freedom From Taxation to the National Spiritualist Association Office, But Pastor Takes Exception to Statement of Officials in Denying Request That Spiritualism Is Not a Religion. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I see that the District Commissioners in de- mying the upplication of the National Spiritualist Association for tax ex- emption on its headquarters make the f..lowing statement: “S»niritualism is not a religion.” They make in this af- firmation a grave mistake, as Spiritual- ism is the very essence of religion, for without Spiritualism there would be no religion. Take the sacred books of all nations, the Gospel of Buddha, the Koran of Mohamet, the legends of the Talmud, and with them place the Old and New Testaments; here are combined the reli- gious history and revelations of the early ages of man. wJpiritualism is the vital flame of truth in every one of these books, giving light and life to their pages. Spiritualism’s great fea- ture is to bring man into communion with the spirit world, and this has ever been the source from which every rell- gious system was born. As Moses, Jesus and Mohamet went up on the mountain to talk with spir- its and Buddha listened to their voices within the walls of his palace, so the great founders of religious systems re- ceived their knowledge through spirit return, from the ancient times up to the present. It is the aim and purpose of modern Spiritualism to emphasize this supreme fact of spirit return and spirit com- munion, which is the vital principle from which all religions have evolved. Its great work is to create a religion of such universal appeal that all mankind, regardless of race, creed or color, can find within its portals room to worship God and come into intelligent com- munion with His ministering spirits. In not granting freedom from taxa- tion to the National Spiritualist Asso- ciation’s office I believe the Commis- sioners are justified, as the property is not a church bit a general business headquarters and office of the secre- tary. If the National Spiritualist As- sociation had a church building in this city. dedicated entirely to religious services, I am sure it would be free taxation, just as are al] other ehurch buildings.

Holds Disarming Nations Not Necessary in Order to Declare It an Evil. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The strangest thing in the present discussion on the effort to outlaw war is the objection most commonly raised by its oppcnents—“War will al- ways exist.” Did civilization wait until it could promise that murde: would never be committed, or theft or arson before outlawing them? ls not the first step in the fight against anything to place it in the proper category and with- draw the moral support of society; to align the forces of mankind against it; to recognize, tn other words, and de- clare it evil—a thing to be striven against? It was once legitimate, because the sole recourse of a man who feared a wrong or resented one, to crush his neighbor’s skull with a stone. We could never have come as far as we have from that code it we had waited until it could be safely said that man would never take his brother’s life. The greatest moral teacher stated at once the situatio, and the law when He said, “It must need be that offenses come but woe tu that man py whom the offense cometh.” Knowing that as long as man was man he would be liable to offenses, this Reformer knew that that fact made it the more imperative that we should be clear as to wrong and orgaiize against it. It is not proposed to disarm the na- tions in order to outlaw war. We had not done away with prisons and police when we declared murder unlawful. But what has been accomplished by so doing has gradually brcught us to where a man need no _ longer ~ move about his daily task armed to the teeth or have his home a _ fortified arsenal. Just as the police force is subscribed: to and respected by each citizen of the comimunity as his pro- tection against a common danger, so will the military cstablishment of each The Immortal Artistry of Ellen Terry and Sir Henry Irviug Is Recalled and Lauded by Clara Sherwood-Waters, Whose Father Was a Friend of Both—Their Search for “Vox Humana,”’ on Which They Based Their Suc- cess, Described.

The quaintest and most unintelligent trick of the human mind (and this is a trace of barbarism) is its habit in the face of evident and overwhelming reasons to peer beneath and behind for hidden ones. Need we look else- where, in “politics” for instance, than the years 1914 and 1918 and their con- sequences for mankind’s reason to out- law war? If it be “politics” which bend gov- ernments to the people’s will, then in- deed it is “politics” which is making the statesmen of the world foreswear: war. MARY LOUISA ANDERSON.

Jones at the Chevy Chase Club, which is one of the most popular spots in Washington at this season of the year. Last Sunday the Ambassador of Turkey, Ahmed Moukhtar Bey, was host at luncheon for Col. and Mrs. Elliott at Airlie, his home outside the city. A few days afterward the ambassador started on a motor trip through New England, to remain for about two weeks. He was accompanied by the Counselor of the Embassy and Mme. Bedy Bey. Col. and Mrs. Elliott went to Fort Hunt, on the Potomac, before going to New York, and were given a tea there by the commanding officer of that post, Maj. Ambrose Emery, and. Mrs. Emery. And on Tuesday,:accom- panied by their son, J. Duncan Elliott, jr., who has been for a month at a camp in Vir- ginta, Col. and Mrs. Elliott will sail for the other side, ’ * * * : e*.. AND MRS. JOSEPH P. TRACY, who have been at Vort Bustis, Va., are on their way to the Philippines. When they ar- rive there they will be greeted by their. son, lLicut. Maxwell W. Tracy, who has been in Manila for a year. Mrs, Tracy is well known in Washington, where she and her sister, Mrs, Darrah, wife of Col. Thomas W. Darrah, who is in command at Fort Eustis, have been fre- quent visitors since they were young girls. They are the nieces of Mrs. Parker West. The engagement has lately been announced of Miss Jean Darrah, daughter of Col. and Mrs, Darrah, to Mr. Woodlief Thomas, but no date has been set for the wedding. Two other officers who have been lately transferred from Washington are Col, John M. Toffey and Col. William H. Noble, both of , wn wv whom were assigned to Governors Island, always very popular, being so near New York. The Philippines is the destination of Lieut. Col. and Mrs. Alfred Maybach, wito already have started for that distant post. They will be joined in September by Lieut. Col, and Mrs. Franc Lecocq, who are at pres- ent at Fort Monroe, Va., where Lieut. Col. Lecocq is taking a special course before going to Manila, . ¥ > . | Peed COL. AND MRS. JOHN M. DUNN have been at Fort Totten, L. 1., since the Ist of June, after having lived here for some time. San Francisco is where Lieut, Col. Frank C, Burnett has just been transe ferred from here, and Lieut. Col. William W, Overton was assigned to Fort Riley, Kans, One of the officers who has lately been order- ed to this city is Lieut, Col. James Totten, coming from Boston, ; COON Se Or roan “Penn. —o | CWAING | Ange COE: Cleade Ch Suanson, ihe’ Cees Churchill Yloung OCI r HE President and Mrs. Coolidge are ik having a gay household this month, guests stopping with them every few days lately. Last week the Secretary of the Navy and Mrs. Curtis VD. Wilbur were in Brule on their way to the West Coast, where they will be for some time at Seattle, Wash. Then; the Secretary of War, Mr. Dwight F. Davis, ac- companied by his two:daughters, Miss Alice Davis and Miss Cynthia Davis, had the pleas- ure of a visit to the summer:White House. Secretary Davis and his daughters are starting on a very interesting trip, for Hono- lulu is one of the most beautiful of the tropi- cal countries. Every one who Visits there comes away much impressed, especially with the unusual coloring of the foliage. Secre- tary Davis is to attend the sesquicentennial anniversary of the Hawaiin Islands, which will be a time of much gayety there. The Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. William M. Jardine, who started on Friday for a trip to Aldska, will be the next member of the Cabinet to visit the President and Mrs. Cool- idge. Secretary Jardine is to arrive in Brule today, and tomorrow will be on his way to Seattle, the place from which he will take the steamer on August 7. After inspecting the Forestry Bureau in Alaska, Secretary Jardine will make his return trip, arriving in Wash- ing in a little over a month. x ¥ * 7 HE next six weeks will be the dullest of T the year, socially, in Washington wher there are fewer people in town than at any other time. The North Shore seems to have claimed most of the Washingtonians who have not gone abroad for the summer months. Every day there is news from many resorts of the social activities of residents of the Capital. Yet even in midsummer there are visitors of interest. Last 4week the American Am- bassador to Japan, Mr. Charles MacVeagh, was here, and during his visit the Secretary of State and Mrs. Frank B. Kellogg enter- tained at an informal dinner for him. The ambassador is returning to Santa Barbara, Calif., for the remainder of the summer. The Minister of Persia, Mirza Davoud Khan Meftah, who is one of the members of the Diplomatic Corps still in town, has changed his place of residence lately. The legation, which has been at 1747 N stree}, is moved to 1710 New Hampshire avenue, which will be better adapted for entertaining. I[t is larger than the former quariers, and has fine ball- ER oe, —_ rooms, where the minister, always a welcome host, will be able to entertain his friends, It is an attractive house, made extremely inter- esting by a beautiful collection of rugs on the walls, so characteristic of Persia. The min- ister gave his first party in his new home Friday night, when he entertained at a buffet supper with dancing afterward. He will go in a few days to Atlantic City for a short visit. * « ” oe HE Army and Navy officers, like mem- ss bers of the Diplomatic Corps, are con- stantly changing stations, so Washington so- ciety is a varied institution, with new faces uppearing each season. This, of course, has its drawbacks, as it is bard to lose the friends one has made here, yet, on the other hand, it often gives one an opportunity to meet again those known elsewhere. Since last spring a number of :Army officers have changed their posts, some of them leaving this city for various places and others coming here from foreign countries and other sta- tions. One of the high ranking officers to arrive here lately was Maj. Gen. Fred T. Austin, who was appointed chief of Field Artillery while in the Philippines a short time ago. He has succeeded Maj. Gen, William J. Snow, who has been retired since the last of the year. Maj, Gen. and Mrs. Malin Craig have lately gone to Quarry Heights, where Maj. Gen. Craig is in command of the Panama Canal Department. Maj. Gen. and Mrs, Carig were in Atlanta, Ga., before going to the Canal Zone. Their son, Lieut. Malin Craig, jr., is at Camp Gatun, Canal Zone. Col. James Brady Mitchell, who has been stationed in Washington four years, and Mrs. Mitchell also are going to Panama. They will sail on a transport in September from New York after passing a month in Canada. Col. and Mrs. Mitchell moved from the Mayflower Hotel to the Chevy Chase Club for their last month in Washington. * Me ww os OL. AND MRS. DUNCAN J, ELLIOTT (; have been the guests of honor at sev- c.al entertainments during the last week be- fore they sail for the’ colonel’s new post in Constantinople. Col.

The classics are contained in 316 volumes and were obtained for the library after the greatest difficulty by Dr. Joseph F. Rock, scholar and botanist, who has spent many years in China. The troubles which forced Dr. Rock into the Choni lamasery in western Kansu Province, where he found the rare volumes, started while he and his staff were in Yunnan in 1925. Brigands set upon them and killed several sol- diers comprising his’ escort. The scientist went to Chonti for safety, but there his troubles increased. as war had broken out among the Tibetans, Mohammedans and Chinese. » The scientist went across the Tal River into the Tebbu country, to con- tinue his botanical search, but there trouble followed him and he _ was suspected by the Mohammedans of giv- ing aid to the Tibetans. Back he went to Choni and again took refuge in the lamasery. The lamasery, it proved, was one of the very few places having complete sets of the printing-blocks of the two great cigssics of Tibet, the Kandjor and the Tandjor, the canon of the Tibetan scriptures and the commen- taries on them The blocks of the Tandjor were hand carved on both sides. The full sets of blocks for the two classics were arranged on shelves, as books are arranged on shelves in a library; it took two sheds to hold them, for there are 108 volumes of the Kand- jor and 208 volumes of the Tandjor. Besides the blocks. Dr. Rock found in the lamasery the printed volumes—a complete set of the Tandjor and two or three sets of the Kandjor. At Lhasa, as Dr. Rock knew, there was a complete set of these printing blocks: there was another place, too, where blocks were to be found, but here at Chonl were not only the blocks absolutely com- plete, but sets of the printed books, | also absolutely complete. Now Dr. Rock, the botanist, was Dr. Rock, the booklover, as well; also he was a scholar and he realizéd the sig- nificance of his discovery and the rarity of *he books before him. His mind turned to the national library in Washington, upward of 10,000 miles away. Ther Dr. Rock thought of the matter of transportation and did « me arithmetic, and this is what he worked out. Twenty mules, each carrying 240 catties, or about 300 pounds, could move the books from Choni to Pikow, a thirteen-day journey. From Pikow they could go by boat to Shanghal, and from Shanghai by boat and rail to Washing- ton. Dr. Rock then talked with the Choni prince having control over the lamasery and its affairs, and found that the prince was willing to hold for the library a set of each of these works In due time the necessary authoriza- tion came from the library. Early in 1926, things at Choni quieted down, and Dr. Rock again found him- self in the lamasery there, directing the shipment of the Kandjor and the Tandjor, in 92 parcels, to Washington. They were started from Choni by mule train on February .26 and reached Lan- chowfu eight days later. From Lan- chowfu they were forwarded to Sianfu. an eighteen-day journey for the mules But Sianfu. as it happened, was in a state of siege. and here the books i.- mained for more than haif a year. In November the siege was lifted and the Sianfu postoffice now dispatched the parcels to Kiafeng. On their way, how- ever, they were held up because of fighting on the Honan and Shansi bor- der. Then they reached Shanghai, where there were other delays. Finally, three years after, vsheir'« scovery by Dr Rock. the books are on the sh2lves o. the Library of Congress; along with >ther books from Tibet brought from that country man: years ago by an Ameri- can Minister to Caine, any late William W.

ITH the prospect of inaugural balls and other functions in- cident to a change of adminis- tration, Washington society women in their journeys to world fashion centers this summer made changes in their Wardrobe. Most of them, however. are atriotic enough to plan to have their nhaugural ball gowns made in Washing- ton, or at least in America. but many a useful hint in this direction has been rnered from presentation costumes at @ several courts of the Old World. Naturally the chief interest of the inaugural ball will linger around the costumes worn by the new first lady of the land and those worn by the ladies of the official] circle. Human na- ture is the same no matter which party is in power in Washington, and the Womankind of America is keenly in- terested in the clothes, fads and foibles ©f those high in official circles. That this was as true in the days of the first President, as it is today, can De seen by even a cursory inspection of the collection of costumes of the first ladies of the land at the National Mu- seum, which were gathered together by the late Mrs. Julian James, of Washing- ton, and Mrs. Rose Gouveneur Hoes, great-granddaughter of President James Monroe. A number of inaugural gowns | worn by first ladies are included in the collection. Washington Wore Homespun. History records that George Washing- ton wore for his inaugural sult an out- fit which was spun and woven on the busy looms at Mount Vernon, Mrs. Martha Washington had superintended the making of her gown, but history has forgotten to record what she wore on that important day, or on May 7, 1789, when the first inaugural ball was held at the DeLancey mansion on the Bourie, New York City, then a fashionable residential district, with at- tractive gardens and majestic trees. It is certain that Mistress Martha Washington was in garments of silk and Jine lace with her hair powdered and @laborately dressed, for this first lady of the land knew how to make the fashion meet the need of the hour. But the ladies were scarcely in picturesque evening clothes of brightly colored velvet or satin, further | with elaborately dressed and | gdorned powdered hair. fine lace ruffles, silken hose and buckles of precious metal or diamonds at knees and insteps One can picture the amazement Which would greet the appearance of any new Cabinet member or associate of the new Chief Magistrate who would appear at the inaugural bali—provided we have one—next March 4. Gowns of Nearer Inaugurals. Two former first ladies of the land, Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt and Mrs. Will- | will read the descrip- | lam Howard Taft. tion of the gown worn by the Presi- dent's wife at our next inaugural ball with recollections of their mind. Mrs. Roosevelt's zgown was of robin’s | @gz blue brocade with raised gold de- sign of large ostrich feathers alternat- | ing with medallions of the gold and it had a court train three yards long. The cloth had been woven in a New Jersey mill and the pattern had been destroyed after the requisite number of yards for Mrs. Roosevelt's dress had been turned off the loom. The memory of Mrs, Taft's inaugural ball gown is still fresh in the minds of | eocial Washington. Roosevelt's was Her zown like Mrs made in America, of white silkchiffon embroidered in silver | lace and crystal beads in a Gesign. It was made in a high-waisted em- pire eifect, but very fetching in ap- pearance.. The waist was simply trim- med with embroidery and lace mounted over a white satin slip. Around, her neck was a pearl and diamond dog col- lar and a spray of gems in her hair completed the costume. Washingtonians of an older genera- tlon can remember the furore caused by the stunning gown worn by Mrs. Grover Cleveland at the inaugural ball held at the second inaugufation of her distinguished husband. It was of heavy white satin with an empire front and tightly fitting back, the skirt carried out to a pointed train onlae : goldenrod more | Deautifully attired than the men—the | officers in gay uniforms, the civilians | their own cos-'| tumes on similar events uppermost in | Which must make the spirit of the Ser- who 'pent in the Garden of Eden shake with Re te.

It was also interesting to note the skirt lengths and to realize that the women who are taking their place in politics recognize the value of the fit- ness of things. The members of the committee wore their skirts with hard- ly a single exception at the most be- coming smar? length. This means that some of the skirts were short, but not extremely so from a present day fashion standpoint, and that those worn by the older women came to a point just above the shoe tops—or what was above the shoe tops when we wore high shoes. Most of the women favored the wide brimmed hat of the summer, but here and there several wore close fitting ones, At this time of year the clothes worn by the great army of women workers in the Government departments, those who hold executive positions and those who form part of the long files of clerks, form something of a criterion. This being a white city in the sum- mer time, many of the women noticed ‘in the throngs going to and from the bulldings where Uncle Sam conducts his business every day, wore white wash costumes, usually of heavy silk which will stand frequent tubbings and looks) so fresh after being worn all day in an | office. The gay flowered prints on dark grounds also are popular among the women workers, as are the plain col- | ored silk dresses Truly the women who gather here from all over the ccuntry as a rule idress well and tastefully, the majority ionly throwing into the rellef the ml- /nority who do not seem to know the difference between clothes for an after- noon tea and a Government office.

re LYME VISIT IS FULL OF INSPIRATION By ADA RAINEY. It seems a long call from Washinz- ton to Lyme, Conn., but the friendly presence of Gladys Brannagan gave a warm greeting to the writer in the hall of the Old Lyme Inn, which recalled that Mrs. Brannagen, a former Wash- ington artist, who now exhibits an- mually at the Corcoran Gallery and the Arts Club, and inas never really sev- ered her connection with Washington, although she and ier husband, Alan Brannagan, both former students of George Washington University, are now living in New York, the latter a patent attorney. Gladys Brannagan has a studio in the grounds of the inn, where she is painting scenes from the country round about Lyme. Mostly these are water colors, strong, vital, colorful:’ She proved herself an able water col- orist in her last Corcoran exhibition, when she showed the romance and the picturesqueness of the old castles and churches of Ireland. Since this exhibi- tion, which created a great deal of in- terest by reason net only of the sub- jects, but also by the vital and free manner in which the scenes were painted. a number of New York artists have invaded Ireland and this sum- mer there are a nutaber who are patnt- ing in Ireland, which will doubtless snare with Spain the popularity of vis- iting American painters. Mrs. Bran- magan contemplates returning to Ire- Jand, another season to gather fresh material for her work. This summer she has found much in- | terest in Lyme where in spite of pre- Vailing clouds and rain she can get out in her car to paint the smooth, suave pasture lands, with the winding river which yields a wealth of richness to the painter, Later on she will go to Canada to paint. For Mrs. Brannagan has achieved an enviable reputation among the painters of the day and ‘ex- hibits not only in Washington, but also in New York, where she is a member of the Pen and Brush Club and the As- sociation of Women Painters and Sculptors. She has recently returned from White Sulphur Springs, where she was invited to give a lecture on “The American College Woman in Art.” Subject of “Moonlight Night.’”’| Lyme, so conservative with the best traditions of New England, ts difficult of access to an outsider, but the kindly offices of Mrs the portals were opened as though by magic and the first to yield were known to us tn Washington through Wiilard Metcalf’s prize painting, “Moon- light Night in May.” which hangs in the Corcoran Gallery. It was with genuine interest that the subject of this well-known painting was seen and entered and the owner, Miss Florence Griswald, came forward to greet us. Miss Griswald has been the chatelaine of this house, beloved by artists for Many years. Through her own personality she has drawn many artists to Lyme, who have become so enamored of the charms of the quiet New England village that they have returned to make their - home there. The settlement of artists is widely scattered over the nearby coun- try and several surrounding towns. Here reside in the summer many of the best-known of America’s artists, Their paintings are to be seen in nearly all the museums and art galleries through- out the country, for Lyme and its quiet landscapes are famous among all who know the artists of this country, Many of these artists have left an example of their art on the panels of Miss Griswald’s famous house, where the favored one is permitted to see Paintings by Bruce Crane, Child Has- sam, W. S. Robinson, Willard Metcalf, Carleton Wiggins, W. H. Howe, Henry W. Ranger and others who have since | made reputations. The interior of the house ts filled with curios and antiques which the owner has collected for years and which are a treasure trove for those who are either collectors themselves or who are keen about the early furniture and decorative objects of 50 or more years ago. There is the atmosphere of a bygone day which imparts its mel- lowed charm to those who enter today. Studios Dot Grounds. In the grounds are several artists who | have their studios here and spend the summer painting the meadows, the flowering shrubs and the banks of the Lieutenant River. Among these are Bruce Crane and W. S. Robinson, both of whom are represented in our Na- tional Gallery. Fruce Crane is known for his lovely landscapes, mostly keyed high, frequently with the tender green ef early spring or the pale gold of the autumn leaves. W.S. Robinson has a numbr of paint- ings of laurel which grow in Lyme in profusion. There is great beauty in these paintings, notably in “River Bank,” and in a number of others which have the laurel for their subject as well as in his other canvases which have been painted in Vermont and else- where. There is great tenderness these paintings, charming color and a eense of the serenity of the fields and the river. Mr. Robinson is a member of the Lyme Art Association which has at- tained a distinctive position in the art world as there are many noted artists who have composed it in years gone by; as well as today. It had its origin at the beginning of this century in the home of Miss Griswaid The colony returnea and grew into the present association, which has at- tained a great su:cess The art gal- lery was built in 1921 by Charles A. Platt, architect or th Freer Gallery and the Clark Wing in Washington, and is in every way perfectly appointed as a gallery for the exhibiting of paint- ings. It is well lighted and. well equipped and in perfect harmony with the architecture of the old New Eng- land village. The standard maintained is very high and there are few outside artists who have the distinction of passing the jury an? of being hung in the Lyme Gallerv. The next exhibition will open this weel to continue through August. Among the artist members are Frank A Bicknell, George H. Bogart. Bruce Crane, Eugene Hig- gins, Henry R. Poore Ivan G. Olinsky, Frank V. DuMond Clark G. Voorhees, Guy Wiggens, Will S. Taylor, Thomas Watson Ball, Bessie Potter Vonnah and Robert Vonnah. Landscapes and Ships. Guy Wiggens has a school of land- scape and figure painting in a nearby village in the | leasant Valley section Mr. Wiggens ‘has gained distinction through his well-known landscapes and recently in his paintings of the National Glacier Park. in Montana, which were exhibited in New York, and which attracted 2 great deal of inter- est.

On a recent visit to Bermuda, when the artist was returning, he encoun- tered a violent hurricane, which lasted for several hours. This he has de- picted in a powerful impression of a ship leaning hard to her port side and laboring valiantly. The scene is 50 realistic that when recently hung in the Lyme Art Gallery it was the center of great interest. Mr. Ball exhibits ‘regularly in' the summer exhibitions in Lyme and his paintings are well known elsewhere, Memorial to Mrs. Burnett. There is another center of artists about 6 or 7 miles from Lyme, at Ham- burg, where Bessie Potter Vonnah and her husband have a delightful house with Eugene Higgens and a numbr of other artists as neighbors. Mrs. Vonnah is well-known sculpture, which formerly was of the type of dainty figurines of a distinct period, but she has enlarged and strengthened her work considerably. In her earlier work she is represented in the Corcoran Gallery. Her recent figure took a prize for thé best single figure | at the outdoor exhibition of sculpture held in Rittenhouse Square in Phila- delphia. This was a delightful figure of a young girl. , At present she is at work on a group for afountain which will be erected in Central Park, New York, in memory of Francis Hodgson Burnett. This foun- tain will be a bird bath for the chil- dren's garden. As Mrs. Burnett so apt- ly said, “Birds are creatures who must be wooed and it must be delicate and careful wooing which allures them into friendship.” and in her book, “My Robin,” ‘“‘An intimacy with a robin is a liberal education.” Mrs. Burnett, who lived at one time in Washington, is well known for her delightful children’s stories, which have been translated into * nearly every known language and ‘have given delight ~ Current Exhibitions CORCORAN GAIIERY—Clarke collec- tion, paintings by Washington ar- tists; permanent coliections.of paint- ings and sculpture.

It has recently been proposed to found in Chicago a Jewish art museum which will illustrate Hebrew art through the ages. This will be the first of its kind in history. It is to be gathered together by the Jewish Museum Association of Chicago, which will first have an exhibition of Jewish art early in the fall. It will be held in the Jewish People’s Institute. The question has been raised, there a Jewish art?” This has been contested negatively by Samuel Put- man, who declared that there was no such thing, as the Jew has tended to re- flect the art of the people with whom he has been associated. This has stirred up much controversy, with the result that a definite movement has been set on foot to collect the works of Jewish artists throughout the world. In certain museums the works of these artists has been tabulated, but it has not been correct, it is the contention. Now efforts will be made to give credit to the old artists from the time of an- clent Greece, through the Renaissance “Is ito the present day.

In this collection of have such universality of interest, such variety of form, such unusual classi- fication that the book deserves and will be given a special place among anthologies. The classification poems are grouped under Local Color and Legendary, Nature and the Sea- sons, Peoples and Portents, the Negro, Poems of Childhood, The Searching Spirit, The Classics and Travel, Cool- Enfolding -Death, and “The Fever Called ‘Living.’” The poems have been selected most carefully and critically, and while some may tire the average reader, there are so many of exceptional beauty that the few boring ones may be omitted and not missed, In “A Charleston Garden,” by Henry we are conscious of faint perfume as we perceive “The yellow roses Slip from the trellis, And the wistaria goes adventuring To the neighboring trees.” No less are we arrested by the haunt- ing quality in his poem, “Pause” “The earth’s unhurried . wheel turns Holds steady place In the unbroken chain Of stars. Only the tall candles In. this room Mark pause Mark pause And watch the white stillness Of your folded hands.” The old legends will live forever and poignant longing be crystallized in such poems as Olive Tilford Targan’s “Sal's Gap” and Margaret Belle Houston's “Song From tke Traffic.” Could the Texas primrose be more prettily con- ceived than in these lines: “A flake of cloud was trembling cast Where April walked in‘dew; Earth loved the alien, made it fast; It blushed, and then was you.” Du Bose Heyward gives us vivid pic- tures. There is a dramatic quality about his wild and strange voicing of the stark ruggedness of mountain life. His “Gamesters All” presents the negro no less graphically. But the “gems of rarest luster’ to be found in this col- lection are such masterpieces as “In His Will,” by Howard Mumford Jones; “To Butterfly,” by William Alexander Percy; “Tears,” by Lisette Woodworth Reese. The appendices claim a word of com- mendation. The biographical notes,on the poets are concise but interestingly ample; tot a bare statement of bald facts. They follow indices of poets, of poems and of first. lines. Could any one wish more? Both student and poetry lover will find untold pleasure js unique.

Sigmund Freud. London). This book, which is printed under the direction of the Psychoanalytical Library, has been edited by Ernest Jones and translated by W. D. Robson- Scott. The book will be of particular value to those interested in psychoanalysis as it is becoming increasingly rec- ognized that Prof. Freud is one of the most profound students of human na- ture. So used are we to discuss his theories that to be without some knowledge of them leaves us at a dis- advantage. His opinions on the main topics of human’ interest must there- fore possess value. In this volume Prof. Freud deals with what is perhaps the vastest of all problems, that of religion. He also ventures predictions about the future of religious beliefs. He acknowledges religion as one of the most important factors in the de- velopment of civilization, but consid- ers that the form it assumes must constantly undergo evolution. Without doubt, ‘this’ book will be challenged by some. In the last paragraph, the crux of the book, is found: “No, science is no illusion. But it would be an il- lusion to suppose that we could get anywhere else what it can not give us.” THE ROCKING CHAIR, An American Institution. By Walter A Dyer and Esther S. Fraser.

Hermione, wife of Kaiser Wilhelm, in her book, “Days in Doorn,” just pub- lished in England, says of Fulton Ours- ler, whose latest novel is “Poor Little Fool” (Harpers); “The healism of Ful- ton Oursler, whose work is shot through with romance in spite of himself, star- tlingly reveals the inhibitions of Ameri- can life. His “Stepchild of the Moon” is a protest against Philistia. I suspect that in his heart of hearts, Oursler, as well as Dreiser, is a romanticist in dis- guise.

ly ) ! 4 S ’ oo NAVAL RADIO CHIEF. TELLS IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION ‘+ 3,000 Officers and Men Are Ps Constantly Striving to Perfect Service. HOW WORK HAS AIDED U. S. BUSINESS ABROAD But Lack of Fixed Govern- mental Policy Threatens Prestige Gained. By CAPT. 8S. C. HOOPER, U. 8S. N., Director of Naval Communications. (Editor's Note—Capt. Hooper, who has just taken over his new duties as di- ; rector of naval communications, is one of the foremost radio authorities in the world. He was the first fleet radio Officer of our Navy in 1912-1914, and during this period organized radio Operation and radio signaling afloat, and standardized fleet radio installa- tions.) The main reliance for naval com- munications is radio, as wires can not connect our moving ships and air- planes with the shore. Our radio or- ganization is one of the great pioneers, and, due to the desire of the person- mel to improve and to obtain better results, the Army and Navy have been the greatest incentive, at least, up un- til the advent of broadcasting, for the } Tapid development of radio. The Naval Communication Service embraces everything pertaining to op- eration of naval communication in ths fieet and on shore in so far as neces- Sary to meet fleet requirements. There are about 3,000 officers and enlisted men on duty handling communica- tions, the most important of which concerns orders of command, and in- formation necessary fo rthose in com- Mand to make decisions. The communication personnel must be highly and constantly trained in Order to reach the necessary state of efficiency required in event of war, just as the gunners must be taught to shoot and the machinists must learn to Op- erate intricate naval machinery. Such training requires years of practice, oth- erwise our communication personnel could be discharged and our radio plants closed subject to call in event of hostilities. But, unfortunately, this is impossible and we must carry on all Gay every day in peace time in order to be always prepared. Aids Other Departments. Ninty-five million words of traffic, in- cluding radio, were handled by naval communications during the last year. A great deal of this was for other Gov- ernment departments; for instance, the State Department traffic between Wash-= ington and China. It is not the policy of the Navy to provide, with the tax- payers’ funds, circuits merely to save telegraph and cable tolls for Govern- ment departments. The Navy's policy is to maintain and operate at the high- est possible state of efficiency the cir- cuits which are necessary for war-time use, and to permit, in so far as time permits, all Government traffic to be handled on these circuits in order to keep them busy. As a pioneer of radio, the Navy has done a great deal toward extending American influence by developing ra- dio contacts with foreign nations. And as rapidly as these reached a state of self-support they were turned over to private American interests for their profit and to the advantage of Ameri- can business, until a few years ago the United States had established @ place for itself in control of the world’s circuits and our publie was the gainer due to lowering of rates and better rvice. ea have noticed lately that partly due to a lack of a clear understanding of the problem and a lack of crystallized Government policy as regards radio and cable service on the part of the United States, our prestige in this field is be- ing threatened and that other govern~ .ments are working out plans in ad- ce of the United States to help their own communication systems reach a place in the sun. This is a most 5e- rious situation and will undoubtedly occupy the attention of some of the best minds of the Government within e next few years. PF oniy men having years of experience in communications.are capable of cop~ ing with the subject and it is essential that it be tackled without further de- lay. The main trouble seems to be that there is no one Government de- partment designated tc give individual attention to the subject; yet, it is one which is vital to the interests of all Americans and mush more important to American business than broadcast- aa communications, as in other branches of the Navy. we are a great team of trained officers and men, each @ small cog but an important cog in the machinery. We tave seen our work built up and torn down three times due to revolutions in the types of equipment in vogue. Ii is rather sad to see the, old wiped out, but it is great to see the increased efficiency due to modern equipment. Our job is to be better than our possible adversaries and this is a never-ending task. The future will be a repetition of the history of the past. etter and quicker service, greater simplicity and lower rates for communications. Television and radio moving pictures will be in the home in addition to broadcasting, but, saa to say, people wil] still be requirsd tc do their own thinking and to take their own exer- cise—two things which are extremely Adifficult in this age of rapid complex- ity. RADIO IS EMPLOYED IN TRAINING TEACHERS Wireless Sets Installed Demonstration Schools , in Scotland. A striking tribute to the value of broadcasting tn schools was recently id by the National Committee for e Training of Teachers, in Scotland, when they decided to install wireless sets in the demonstration schools at the four main Scotch training centers hich come under their jurisdiction. The committee is to allow a cost j to $180 for each of these sets and it is intended by their agency to carry in aspects of school broadcasting by ying the effect of broadcast courses ‘Hous pects 0 investigations on va- on ordinary classes in the demonstra- vy ; D1 schools over a considerable period.

Bowers, their keynote speaker, for a night session to catch listeners at home, but because of the difference in time between the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts Secretary Hoover surely will have it on Gov. Al Smith in the size of his radio audience for the acceptance speech if the latter is to speak at 7 o'clock, Eastern daylight time. Gov. Smith naturally wants to reach the West, but this would mean that his) speech would be heard in Chicago at 6 o'clock, Denver at 4 o’clock and San Francisco at 3 o'clock in the afternoon—all admittedly poor hours to expect any one to be listening to a radio speech. 7 o + - On the other hand, Secretary Hoover having the time break in his favor will begin speaking in California at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Pacific time, which will be 7 o’clock in the evening in Chicago and 8 o’clock in New York. At first glance 4 o'clock in the afternoon seems to be an odd hour to make a campaign speech, but inasmuch as the ceremony is to be on Saturday afternoon—a half holiday—daytime toilers in San Francisco and vicinity will be free to attend and doubtless will in large numbers. More important will be the radio coverage. It is not so good in the West, but there Mr. Hoover is strongest. However, in the Middle West and the East where his managers figure Mr. Hoover's hardest fight will be, the arrangement appears to be almost ideal. > + . 7. Also revealing the fact that Secretary Hoover hasn't been the boss of radio the past seven years without learning something about it was his canniness in selecting Saturday night for his speech, knowing only too well that this is the poorest advertising night in the week. Thus with comparatively few advertisers on the air there will have to be little shifting of fixed commercial time to make way for him. The other way around, Wednesday night, which Gov. Smith has chosen, is one of the best advertising nights on the air, so more advertisers will have to be shifted, their tardiness to respond having already caused an expression of impatience on the part of the governor. 7 . . + To get the most out of its hookup, the Republican national committee has formed a radio bureau in charge of O. P. Gascoigne, whom, inany listeners will remember, was in charge of Station WCAP before it was merged with WRC. The bureau is housed with the committee in the Barr Building and | the Mr. Gascoigne will supervise all details of broadcasting campaign. The Democrats as yet have not announced the appointment of a broad- casting head, radio arrangements apparently being in the hands of Mrs. Henry Moskowitz, Gov. Smith’s personal advisor. - * * > during If Louis G.

Mr. New’s summer | cottage is located, was his guide and friend, old Buck Bufore, now dead. Mr, New thought so much of Buck, in fact, that he went all the way from Washington to attend his funeral. On the night of the Pittsburgh broadcast Buck happened to drop into camp about the time some one turned on the radio. Old Buck, who, according to Mr. New, had a voice that could be heard “‘all over that part of Michigan,” instantly recognized the Postmaster General’s voice and let out a terrific yell. “That’s ‘Onri’,”” the delighted woodsman cried, “‘That’s ‘Onri.’ ” “Onri” being the nearest the French Canadian could get to Mr. New’s first name, which is “Harry.” Whereupon the guide began to listen in- tently.

COMMISSIONERS AGAINST CONTINUANCE OF PLAN Great Possibilities Held Out by Friends of Practice if It Is Allowed. Despite the fact that up to now the idea apparently has not made much of a hit with the Federal Radio Commis- sion, great possibilities are held out by the sponsors of electrical reproduction for tying together without wires the hundreds of smaller broadcasters into vast chains. Electrical reproduction, it may be explained, is broadcasting phonograph records without the aid of a micro- phone, but direct to the transmitter by means of an electric needle device. Already Judge Ira E. Robinson, chair- man of the Radio Commission has come out openly as being against the broadcasting of phonograph records, and several other commissioners have privately expressed themselves ad- versely. So nearly do these electrically reproduced phonograph records sound like the real thing that Judge Robin- son himself admitted he had been fooled by them. | This has resulted in a stricter en- | forcement of the regulation that all | phonograph records broadcast must be | s0 announced. Exposed By Chicago Man. The process of electrical reproduce- tion was brought directly to the at- tention of the Radio Commission by Clinton R. White, of Chicago, presi- dent of the Independent Broadcasters Association, when he appeared in Washington in defense of his station WCRW, which has been ordered off the air August 1, along with the 164 smaller stations. Mr. White testified that 75 per dent of his programs consist of phonograph records broadcast to the public thrmugh a machine of his own invention called the “vibraphone,” which differs from the Brunswick Panatrope and the Vic- tor electric, in that the record Is placed On a turntable amd fed directly to the transmitter and electrically reproduced without the use of the microphone or a like instrument. Mr. White testified that he was one of the first brodacasters to use records for air dissemination and that at first the radio audience did not respond. come to consider the electrical repro- duction a very high grade of entertain- ment, according to Mr. White. Help to Advertiser. Mr. White also explained to the com- mission a plan whereby an advertiser who desired coverage in several cities of the country could have records made and distributed to broadcasters in these cities, and arrange to have them played for transmission to the radio audience This would constitute a sort of chain, but would be used by only one station in One community, leaving the listen- er’s dial free. These advertising rec- ords could be distributed to 100 or more Stations electrically equipped to re- produce them throughout the country. Mr. White's testimony was supple- mented by Ernest R. Reichmann, of Chicago, counsel for the independents, who said: “This method is 4 chain with- | out links and therefore the only true | wireless chain.” However, attesting to the fact that larger broadcasters are not entirely ob- livious to the possibilities of electrical reproduction is an announcement that one of the largest stations in the coun- try will reproduce for its listeners by means of phonograph records a feature now very popular with another large Station. The only difference is that at one of these large stations the performers ap- pear in person and at the other their act is broadcast from a phonograph record.

How to Keep | Well By DR. W. A. EVANS. a, BANANAS TO CURE SCURVY. BABY OF HE following is an _ experience dy which was under the observation of a New Orleans physician, Dr. Ludo von Mysenberg. A child 19 months old was brought to the doctor’s office. The child had scurvy. He was pale and pasty gen- erally. His gums were sore and bled easily. He seemed to have rheumatic pains. At least, when his mother handled him he cried as if his bones and joints were sore. The doctor had X-ray pictures made of his arms and legs and the bones showed scurvy. This baby was weaned when he was 4 months old. After that he was bottle fed, and his diet consisted principally of boiled or ‘ pasteuriz milk. The mother was timid and slow about vary- ing his diet. The physician did not change the diet very much except that he directed that the child have some The Listener’s Viewpoint Havrilla Versus McNamee. To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: Speaking of announcers (who, I think, have come in for too much criti- cism), I want to say a word for Mr. Alois Havrilla. In spite of his trick moniker, he has them all beaten, in my estimation, not only by the long hours he seems to put in every day. but in the timbre of his voice, his happy con- versational style and his excellent pro- nunciation. And speaking of pronun- clation, why, oh, why, do half the radio announcers pronounce the word “planist” with the accent on the first syllable? There is no authority what- ever for such pronunciation. Graham McNamee is falling rapidly in my estimation. He insists on de- claiming when he should be talking in the same easy conversational tone I like in Mr. Havrilla; and when it comes to a foreign word or phrase, oh my! Graham seems to choke and swallow and swell up and then get it off as though it hurt him. McNamee has them all beaten when it comes to broadcasting prize fights and football games, but that just about lets him out. If this be treason, make the most of it! ROSCOE PEACOCK. North Cohocton, N. Y., July 12, 1928. Best Summer Night.

Therefore, beginning in October, all these stations within the continental limits of the United States must add to call signals the letter “W,” and those in Alaska, Hawall, Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands should add the let- ter “K.” These letters should precede the call signal. For example, station 4ABC, if within the continerital limits of this country, becomes W4ABC, and if in Porto Rico, becomes K4ABC., In the same way, after January 1, the foreign countries from which amateurs are broadcasting will become instantly recognizable by the following international prefixes: CI, Chile; CF, Canada; CL, Cuba; CN, Morocco; OP, Bolivia; CR, Portu- guese colonies; CS, Portugal; CV, Rou- mania; CW, Uruguay; CZ, Monaco; D, Germany; EA, Spain; EI, Ireland; EL, Liberia; ES, Estonia; ET, Ethiopia; F, France and colonies; G, England; HA, Hungary; HB, Switzerland; HC, Equa- dor: HH, Haiti; HI, Dominican Repub- lic; HJ, Colombia; HP, Honduras; HS, Siam; I, Italy; J, Japan; LA, Norway; LO, Argentine; LZ, Bulgaria; M, Eng- land; N, United States; OA, Peru; OH, Finland; OK, Czechoslovakia; ON, Bel- gium and colonies; OU.

The bananas were to be well ripened. None but those with plenty of brown specks on the peel were allowed The well ripe, soft banana pulp was to be thoroughly mashed. The first day the child was to get a level tablespoonful of banana pulp. This @l- lowance was to be increased one tea- spoonful a day until the child was get- ting a banana a day. In two weeks the mother returned to report that the child was eating its banana eagerly, that it was being di- gested, and that the symptoms of scurvy were disappearing. A little later these symptoms had wholly disap- peared. No medicine was given. The banana was the only cure used in this case of scurvy and it worked. I imagine most children would cry for the banana if called on to choose be- tween it and spoon medicine. It may have been that other fresh fruit and. vegetables would have done just as well. Sailors discovered a long time ago that fresh fruit and fresh meat would quickly cure scurvy. Count Luckner. in his story of the Seeadler as told by Thomas, describes several! outbreaks of scurvy and beriberil among his crew, which outbreaks faded within a few weeks after the sailors got hold of fresh food. I suppose banana was chosen in this case because it is eaten raw. When thoroughly ripe it is easily digested and the heavy peel keeps the inside reason- abiy free from dangerous germs. CURING ITCH AT SCHOOL. | V. P. writes: The itch is very bad in our schools and we never know when we are going to handle things that some one with the itch has handled. I should like to know how to take precautions against it. I should also like to Know a cure for this con- dition. REPLY. The best method of protection for the pupils in the school is to get track of those having the affliction, and then have a treatment party, or series of parties The cure is developed at the party. 1t consists in sulphur ointment properly used. When the school has a nurse that lady distributes leaflets giving directions for curing the itch. These are delivered to the parents. In some instances one mother has an itch party to which she invites other interested mothers. The nurse attends and demonstrates. The school generally supplies the leaflets which tell how. ooo ONE FORM OF BLOOD POISON, M. A. M. writes: 1. What is childbed fever? 2. Has it any connection with blood poison? 1, An infection which follows child- birth. It is much less frequent than it once was, but it is far too frequently encountered still. 2. Yes, ehildbed fever is one form of blood poisoning. BRIGHT’S DISEASE. L. G. H. writes: My 6-year-old gon has for some time had trouble with his eyes in that he constantly winks. A piysician says he has Bright’s disease. He says it may prove very serious un- less corrected by diet. He had made an examination of the urine. He said he was not to have meat, eggs, “eans or other proteins. Can you assist me in the matter of a diet for him? What other suggestions have you in this mat- ter? REPLY. The. very restricted diet you,are now using can be persisted in too long. If so, it does more harm than good. After the acute stayex. have passed, @ much more liberal diet should be al- lowed. The probability is that the boy will get all right. Be careful not to make too much of an invalid of him. We have a booklet on Bright’s which we send for 10 cents and an addressed, stamped envelope. You may find some- thing in it which would help you. CAUSE OF BOILS. Mrs. L. S. writes: I have three neph- ews, aged 15, 13 and 11. They are big, strong looking children. They eat all vegetables and all cereals and drink plenty of milk The three of them are troubled with numerous boils. Can you state any cause for these? What can be done for them? ; REPLY. Perhaps their diet contains too much cereals, breads and other starches and sweets. Limit tnese. Do they bathe often enough? Are their skins irritated especial in any way? Boils are due to skin bacterla which have struck in. One way to prevent them is to treat the skin extra well. Plenty of soap and water is the first step in. this policy of “Be kind to your . :

i ; bonis ° - (HE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, en -_ ee JULY 29, 1928: mm ne se ae eee ee | A Sabbath Clinic Devoted To Celluloid V ocal Cords By NELSON B. BELL HB motion picture industry, as nearly as I am able to analyze its present hysteria, has just awakened to the realization that in the talking picture it has within its grasp the means of evading further Surrender to a deadening and an ominous lethargy. In this latest contribution of science to the screen there is perceived the genesis of Something of the tonic hullaballoo that originally made the cinema at once the livest, the mast novel and the most fascinating source of en- tertainment the world had known. Having passed through the period of kicking and squealing with its Own growing pains, the industry gradually found itself “smooth run- ning” and lulled into dangerous apathy by the monotonous whirring of its own well-oiled machinery. It had concentrated so assiduously upon ordering itself within that it had almost completely lost sight of the vital factor of public interest without. It went into Wall street, isolated itself in many’ star chamber pro- ceedings, designed to foster means of perfecting certain economies and far-reaching agreements, and built theaters which in size, number and cost were out of all proportion to the quantity and the quality of the entertainment available to keep them open. Sensing something of the danger of the situation, those in power sought a solution by going stark, staring crazy in the matter of amalgamation and building up chain-theater organizations that mistook size for security. And all this time, the public was kept on the same old diet and told to like it! I do not mean at all to recede from the position I have consistently adhered to ever since my incumbency of these columns of The Post that the past year has been the most prolific in exceptional entertain- ment values in the history of what has been, until now, the silent drama. There is, however, no gainsaying that fifteen or twenty years of con- stant contemplation of standardized, flat-surface, black and white silent pictures have it in their power to generate at least the first faint symptoms of monotony, if not satiation. It is not unlikely that fifteen or twenty years of cavair, pate de fole gras and champagne might reasonably be expected to dull the palate of the most fastidious epicure to the fabled delicacy of these favorite viands of the gourmet. So we reverted to the stage, which the movies had so successfully rivaled in public esteem, and gathered in vaudeville, bands, dancers, jazz leaders of note, big names and al] else that seemed 4Gesirable to bolster a bedridden business—in short, personalities and music. And now we have these same elements of mental refreshment emanat- ing from the film itself—or at least from the same booth from which it itself fs projected. The sound movie! ~ = ” . W ec my fifth floor room on E street, facing the immaculate facade of the District Building, spreads before me an unexampled vista of the towering Washington obelisk, the lazy Potomac and the green, rolling Virginia hills beyond, it does not command so compre- hensive a view of Pacific Coast activities as falla beneath the eye of Mr. Edwin Schallert, editor of the Los Angeles Preview and special correspondent of the Motion Picture News. Hence I shall rely in large measure upon his minute resume of the “sound field,” as published in Mr. William A. Johnston’s New York journal of the industry of July 21, hoping to condense his valuable findings sufficiently for the meager purposes of this Sabbath lecture, to set before at least a theoretical reader the salient facts of the present status of the first definite techni- cal improvement the motion picture has enjoyed since it was born. Granting that sound equipment is being installed in an average of 125 theaters monthly and that the probable total number so fortified against the coming of the new day will reach 1,000 not later than the first of the year, Mr. Schallert points out that the producing companies themselves are making no more rapid progress than that toward the final perfection of the ‘“‘speakie.”’ 4 There is only one real ploneer company, with stages for the actual production of talking movies in full operation, and that is the Warner Brothers. The Fox Films Corporation bids fair to be the next to com- plete its preparations for an elaborate program in the new field. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer is building, as is First National at its Burbank studios, now that final alliance has been effected with Western Electric to use its system of sound reproduction as originally planned. United Artists’ stage is also under way and Dr. Hugo Riesenfeld already has been placed under contract to supervise its operation, Dr, Riesenfeld is credited with the statement that it is much easier to evolve a satisfactory musical score for a picture while it is in process of being filmed. ‘It will be possible in this way to get the ‘feeling’ of a production,” he says. ‘Scoring nowadays is more or less ‘@ matter of scratching one’s head and trying to think up something suitable to fit the occasion. It is far from an inspirational method of working.”’ Samuel Goldwyn expresses the belief that many original scores will be used in the future. tracted to Hollywood,” he declares. the screen.” Mr. Goldwyn does not believe in the early development of the all- talking film. “I consider the spoken word to be chiefly a new form of close-up and, like any close-up, it must be used with the utmost dis- cretion,’’ he says. “I see a great field for talk-recording in the short subjects. I believe that it is going to give new life to the two-reel comedy.”’ The two-reel comedy, from my recent observation, can stand a slight dash of new life! “They will compose directly for . a - s HE reaction among directors and players is perhaps not so unani- mous and considerably less enthusiastic. At first there was a pro- nounced sentiment against the innovation, as was to have been ex- pected in the case of any development which must inevitably nullify all of the set rules of procedure in the making of pictures. The per- sona] equation which necessarily enters also is easy to understand. Mr. Schallert, whose estimate of the situation is by far the most thorough and most authentic that has come out of Hollywood, is con- vinced that this feeling of antagonism is gradually giving way to calm acceptance of a condition that betrays no ephemeral qualities whatever and, therefore, must be looked upon as something to which the indi- vidual inclination must be accommodated. While comparatively few stars are actually studying voice culture, the number is steadily increasing. It is significant, Mr. Schallert points out; that 60 per cent of all players engaged in the studios and on the lots may be credited with some experience in the use of the voice in a fessional way, for approximately that percentage have had stage snce of one kind or another. is Mr, Schallert’s tabulation, drawn from six of the leading Players with stage experience.

CTORS express a variety of views on the importance of voice and A voice training in talking pictures. Lionel Barrymore, who has made one of the greatest individual suc- cesses so far in “The Lion and the Mouse’’—as may easily be deter- mined by ‘a visit to the Metropolitan, the house that pioneered the audible screen in Washington, where the picture is playing—is of the opinion, and rightly so, that brains will go immeasurably further than mere vocal pyrotechnics. fee On “More actors have beet ruined by thinking about their voices on the stage than have ever succeeded,” he contends. ‘‘Consider our great attorneys—mental giants of the law, brilliant in achievement. Most of them have mediocre voices; still they sway juries by the mentalities ‘behind those voices—the gray matter in their noodles! ae at ré Cn gees “The best musicians in the world will be at-| TWO SYSTEMS COMPARED BY REAL EXPERT Now that “‘sound pictures” are be- coming the vogue, the fans naturally would like to know something about the systems of recording sound and whick is superior. James A. FitzPatrick, pioneer pro- ducer of music films, including the “Schubert Series,” sound-recorded for Paramount by the sound-on-disc method and “In a Music Shoppe,” a Fox Movietone sound-on-film subject, declares himself im favor of the former method. “It has been my privilege to produce sound pictures by both the sound-on- disc and sound-on-film methods,” states FitzPatrick, “and I deliberated considerably before coming to my de- cision in favor of the former system. To the uninitiated, casual observer, sound-on-the-film is obviously the more practical method, chiefly because of simplicity and speed. “For quality, however, experience thus far has proved to me that sound- on-disc is superior to the other. By quality, I mean photography as well as music. Besides, there are more op- portunities for effects that enhance the beauty of scenes. The disc method does not interfere with tinting, ton- ing and coloring on the film, while up to the present moment color has a tendency to distort sound-on-films. Experiments have been made toward putting sound on color films, but the results which I have seen were far from satisfactory. This is a vital point because sound is apt to demand more color, “Looking into the future a ‘little, I feel that the eventual solution to this problem will be sound film running in synchronization with, but independent of, the picture film. But until this time comes, I believe that for all round utility and quality the disc method will prove superior to method.” “ yagi a THAT COAST CLIMATE IS STILL GOOD nD Fox Films and California sunshine have “sold” Tristram Tupper, eminent novelist, the idea that Hollywood is just the right place for a writer's work- shop. Some weeks ago Fox executives took Tupper out to the West Coast to assist Frank Borzage in preparing the former's widely-read story, “The River,” for the screen. The engagement of Tup- per was to be for a matter of a fort- night. “The River,” which reached the news stands in June, already has gone into the third edition. Tupper had become convinced that New England and the South Atlantic Coast regions were ideal birthplaces for his brain children. Then, as the fort- night doubled, and he still was indis- pensable to Borzage, the California virus got in its work and Tupper sent for his family to come on and help him make Hollywood his permanent address. No sooner had he done this than he got a call from Winfield Sheehan to write an original story as Janet Gay- nor’s next starring vehicle. The story is written, Willlam K. Howard has been chosen to direct—principally because Bill showed fare: artistry in putting Charlies Francis Coe’s “The River Pi- rate” into a screen epic—and now that Miss Gaynor has returned from two months tn New York and way points it is expected that she shortly will start production on this Tupper story. No title has been selected as yet, but ad- vance information reveals that it is somewhat of a Cinderella tale, with set- tings in Holland. Meanwhile Tupper is dividing his time between the Borzage unit shoot- ing at Fox Hills and putting the fin- ishing touches to the Gaynor story and a new home. DEL RIO IS BOOKED FOR THE SALONS When Dolores Del Europe, she will probat@y have carry two social secretaries. Already, with early announcements of her proposed sailing in August, the Mexican star is said already to have received dozens of invitations from notables and society leaders of Paris, London, Vienna, Berlin and other great centers in foreign lands. If Miss Del Rio contemplates going abroad for a rest after her three years strenuous work as a star before the cameras in Hollywood, she will be sadly mistaken. After her tour abroad, she will no doubt seek some solitary spot in America to recuperate. Edwin Carewe, the United Artists producer, who has Miss Del Rio under contract, is now mapping out the tour. He plans to present his star in practi- cally every European capital. She is immensely popular. in foreign and Latin countries and the tour should be one of great excitement from the time she steps down the gangplank of the “Tl de France” at Havre until she walks back again at the completion of her three months’ visit. Carewe’s production plans for Europe will await his arrival in London, where he will confer with Joseph M. Schenck, head of United Artists, who is now summering abroad. Rio sails for to OLD MASTER PIONEER IN SOUND FILM In the crush of those getting on the sound band-wagon, sight is lost of the fact that D. W. Griffith was the first to introduce synchronized sound effects to motion pictures. Ten years ago Griffith produced “Dream Street” and showed it at the town hall in New York City with the Kellem process—a method of sound synchronization similar in all major respects to the present Vitaphone. The picture at the time was a sen- sational hit and scores of editorials prophesied a great career for it. Griffith attempted at the time to influence capital to back the process, but Wall street appeared skeptical and the. ursor of sound effects died away through lack of support and ap- preciation, Almost ten years to the day of the presentation of “Dream Street,” Griffith will start 6 “The Love Song,” with William yd and Lu Velez costarred.

Mayor Walker, who is extremely pop- ular with theatrical people, both of the stage and screen, because of his former position as counsel for the Motion Picture Theater Owners of New York. was entertained by Colleen Moore, star of “Lilac Time’’—at the world premiere of which he officiated last week-——Rich- ard Barthelmess, Charlie Murray, Alice White and Watterson R. Rothacker, vice president and managing director; Al Rockett, in charge of production; John McCormick, producer of Miss Moore’s pictures; Ned Martin, producer of Billie Dove’s pictures, and other stars and executives. Mayor Walker received a riotous wel- come from 2,000 studio stars, executives and workers, said a few words through the microphone, and then proceeded to the lunchroom, where 200 guests had assembled, including members of the press and representative powers of the motion picture industry. The mayor made one of his usual witty talks. Later he visited the sets where Mer- vyn LeRoy is directing “Oh, Kay!” star- ring Colleen Moore, and Alfred Santell is making “Show Girl,” with Alice White. Putting on makeup, he appear- ed in a number of scenes with the va- rious players, which were photographed by a small camera for his private screen collection. Santell, who was directing a night club scene, put on the various acts which will appear in the finished film, and the mayor sat right down and sur- veyed them critically. After which he pronounced them “just as good as any- thing in the home town.” se ee) COLOR TAKES PLACE AMONG NEWEST ARTS .the intense fanatical love of the old Another advanced step in the devel- opment of motion pictures is forecast | by the announcement made by Herbert T.

The central theme in this picture, as in “The Big Parade,” is the tender love tale of a boy and girl; the same boy and girl, as in “The Big Parade,” by the way, John Gilbert and Renee Adoree. This love story is set in the thunder of battle and the heat of adventure; hugeness of setting adds to this im- pression. But there is another note; “The Cos- Cossack chieftain, played by Ernest Torrence, for his son. Gilbert is the son, a swaggering young Cossgck soldier to whom the great truths of life come in the smoke of battle and the agony of torture. An entire Russian city, peopled by California Russians and a troop of real Cossacks are employed in the picture to make it realistic. On the stage is presented “Wesley Eddy’s Welcome Home Revue,” in which the popular master of ceremonies pre- sents Niggemeyer’s “Harem-Scarem” an oasis of mirth and melody featuring shieks and shebas, mostly shebas.

Now comes a screen production wherein not only all of this is told, but with a ca&’t of players headed by Nick Stuart and Sally Phipps, two of the younger Fox stars, of which so much has been heard of late.

ON THE VITAL TOPIC OF THE HOUR? OUGLAS FAIRBANKS will not be D led astray in the panic of the “talkies” in the opinion of Car- roll S. Trowbridge, the star’s personal representative, who, while stating that Doug’s next picture, “The Man With the Iron Mask,” would be synchronized with music and. sound effects, but would be minus dialogue. Although Mr. Fairbanks is an actor who achieved stardom and great popu- larity on the speaking stage prior to his entrance into pictures, he has always felt that the motion picture, because of its universal tongue, is a greater medium of expression than the spoken word, Mr. Trowbridge stated. While fully appreciative of the novelty and advances made by the talking pictures during the past few months, Fairbanks feels that it still has serious limita- tions, particularly in his type of pro- duction. On returning from his recent Euro- pean trip, Mr. Fairbanks, in a discussion of future plans with his representative, stated that he did not intend to let his use of the sound device impair the internationalism of his screen produc- tions. Mr. Trowbridge emphasized the fact that we are still in the motion picture business and that pantomime is international in understanding. The acting of the silent drama augmented by music and such other audible em- bellishments as are universal in inter- pretation will undoubtedly heighten the entertainment value of films, but dialogues as @ regular diet permits the danger of becoming not only a domestic bore’ but likewise limiting the world- wide appeal of American productions. Mr. banks’ European trip strong- ly confirmed these opinions and em- phason’ the { impossibility of ranslation into the languages of the many countries where American pic- tures are distributed uch trans- proper inflection and understanding. Certainly this can not be done by the players who enact the scenes, for there are hardly sufficient actors, accome plished enough linguists, to perform this Herculean task. When the “vocal double,” particularly in foreign lane- guages, enters the talking picture door, synchronization is very likely to go present menace of the “lip reader.” Unfortunately, there is no Esperanto capable of bridging the gap at present, but perhaps the talking picture will de- velop this medium in the future. In the opinion of the famous sitar, the pantomime of the photoplay is the only language that is universally Ainderstood, Mr. Fairbanks, however, is open-mind- ed on the subject of talkies, and, if convinced that such additions would enhance his productions, even for the into it with the same enthusiasm that marks his other activities, No star or producer, Mr. Trowbridge said, has a greater appreciation of me- chanical and artistic advances in mo- tion picture production than Mr. Fair- banks, who has always been progressive and a pioneer in utilizing every new banks’ “The Black Pirate.” teers,” will offer man effects, according to Mr. Trowbridge.

'a@ Marine Corps general » 7 = » THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JULY 29, 1928. ~ Close CIps-Pre-views-Retakes CRushes FIRST NATIONAL HAS MANY SOUND PICTURES ON LIST IRST NATIONAL PICTURES, INC,, have signed a contract with Elec- trical Research Products, Inc., a subsidiary of the Western Electric Go., for the sound synchronization of at least 30 pictures in the coming season. despite an earlier inclination toward RCA’s Phonophone, it has been an- oy by Irving D. Rossheim, presi- ent Joseph P. Kennedy, special adviser to First National Pictures, is on his way to the studios at Burbank, Calif., and there will complete the arrangements now under way for installing sound re- producing apparatus in these studios. “The announcement that we will Make 30 so-called ‘talkies’ is a con- servative one,” confides Mr. Rossheim. “It is not at all unlikely that within a month or so all First National pictures will be synchronized. Special staves are now being built in our Burbank studios and experiments are under way for producing the finest talking picture effects. We are experimenting witn pictures in which all the dialogue is spoken, as well as with productions tn which the synchronization consists mostly of music and sound effects.” First National’s first synchronized picture, Colleen Moore in “Lilac Time,” Opened in Los Angeles, at the Carthay Circle Theater, July 16, and will be pre- sented at the Cenrtal Theater, New York, August 3 Among the First National pictures now being prepared for the new proc- @ss, are three additional Colleen Moore specials; Corrinne Griffith in “The Divine Lady,” in which the Battle of Trafalgar will be reproduced in sound; “The Barker” with Milton Sills, Dorothy Mackaill and Betty Compson, in which all the sounds and dialogue of the car- nival will be reproduced. “The Whip,” with Dorothy Mackaill; a Billie Dove special, directed by George Fitzmaurice; “The Good-Bye Kiss;” “The Squall,” made from the famous Broadway play; “Changeling,” Donn Byrne's story; Corinne Griffith in “Outcast,” “Paid For,” “Saturday's Children” and one other, as yet un- titled, all will be audible. Richard Barthelmess in “Scarlet Seas,” “Diversion” and two others; Billie Dove in “The Night Watch,” “The Heart of a Princess,” “The Other To- morrow,” “Pleasure Bound;” Milton Sills in “Hard Rock,” “The Spotter,” “The Eagle’s Trail” and “Captain of the Strong:” Alice White in “Show Girl,” J. P. McEvoy’s story of back-stage life; three mystery dramas, “The Haunted House,” by Owen Davis, “Seven Foot- prints to Satan,” A. Merritt’s mystery novel and “Sh! The Octopus,” a recent Broadway success, likewise will be synchronized “First National doesn’t contemplate sound production in the East at this time,” according to Mr. Rossheim. “We are sure that the finest equipment and the best talent can be secured in Los Angeles and that Hollywood will soon be built up as a center of sound re- production as it now is the center of motion picture production.” EX-FOLLIES STAR DECLAIMS, ON THE MATTER OF COSTUME ON’T economize too much on D clothes. This suggestion is of- fered by Louise Brooks, Holly- wood actress whom Travis Banton, de- signer of Paramount fashions, has de- clared one of the world’s best dressed women. “A welldressed woman,even though her purse is painfully empty, can con- quer the world,” says Miss Brooks. “Without good clothes, a woman's courage wavers and often fails her com- pletely. “I have watched the effgct of clothes in theatrical work in New York and in motion picture work in Hollywood, and IE know that the rule also holds good in other businesses. The girl who is conscious of being smartly attired, is able to make a far less self-conscious approach. She has the quiet confi- dence that her appearance is down to the minute and this confidence has its effect on the persons she meets. “Compellecd to wear a last season’s turban or shoes that do not blend with her stockings, a girl can not be at ease. She feels inferior in the presence of others. “This is true even when a girl ts dealing with men. It is not that they notice anything wrong with her ap- pearance—it is her own Knowledge of it s It is the contention of this former Follies beauty that it is not necessary to be expensively dressed in order to be well dressed “Intelligent seiectior means a great deal,” she declares. “Women know by experience and by instinct the sort of clothes in which the\v appear best and with a little care and time they can always dress well at a moderate cost.” An actual lesson in the psychology of clothes was gained by Miss Brooks in “Beggars of Life.” The screen story was adapted from Jim Tully’s epic of Hobohemia and shows Miss Brooks in man’s attire througr the early part of the picture. “A boy’s cap, # wovlen shirt, a coat three sizes too large. trousers also too large, and heavy hob-nailed' shoes made me a different person entirely,” She says. “1 wasn’t myseli at all when 1 met people in the studio lunchroom or when I took advantage of @w few spare minutes durini the day to run into a studio office on Cusiness “At the end of the day’s work, back in silk things, sheer hose, French heels and a smart, new hat, I was myself again, confident and sure of my ap- pearance,” Clinic on Celluloid V ocal Cords CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2. “Many old-time bartenders had manner of a Joseph Choate, famous lawyer and diplomat, the Chesterfieldian voice and the but inasmuch as they didn’t have what was in Joseph Choate’s head they became soda boys when prohibition came in.” Conrad Nagel feels that “new players will have considerable work ahead of them in voice training—for it is no job to be done in a couple of days. But most of them will doubtless succeed, for, in the large view, training the voice is no harder work than acting in silent drama, which in itself requires a very special faculty. Stage players may have much to unlearn, for the talking picture medium and the footlight drama are so entirely different.”’ George Fawcett looks upon the articulate screen as a priceless boon to the trained stage actor. Douglas Fairbanks’ views will be found in other columns of this section of today’s Post, and from it all the reader— if any has had such endurance—may perhaps shape an opinion of his own. Mine is in agreement with the elder Barrymore’s, for, after all, the principal difference between a star and an extra is mentality. Flashbacks and Fadeouts Mary Brian has been assigned to the feminine lead opposite Charles Rogers in that young star’; next picture, ten- tatively called “Just "wenty-one.” Louise Brooks, in New York for the last two weeks, has returned to Holly- wood to begin work on Paramount's “The Canary Murder Case,” in which she will have the role of the victim of the crime. Larry Kent, First National player, has started construction on a new 60-foot yacht. It will be the fourth and largest vessel in the popular actor’s impressive fleet. Kent, whose latest role was in “The Head Man,” is Hollywood’s most enthusiastic navigator. Finishing one picture at 4 o’clock in the morning and starting his role in another at 7 o’clock the same day was the ambitious schedule of Charles De- laney. The second picture is “Show Girl,” in which he plays opposite Alice White. Florence Vidor, now vacationing in Eu- rope, is expected to return to Holly- wood late in August, according to latest reports from her. Her first pic- ture is to be called “Divorce Bound,”. -gnd the director will be H. D’Abbadie D’Arrast. Clara Bow and the company making the star’s new picture, “The Fleet’s In,” are in San Francisco at present filming waterfront sequences for the picture. The ferry landing and the city hall are backgrounds for two important stages of the action. Victor Schertzinger, the director who has just completed the all-star produc- tion of “Forgotten Faces,” is also a mu- sician and composer. Two of the big- gest sellers in the musical field are his “Just an Old Love Song” and “Mar- cheta.” Capt. E. H Calvert has been cast as in Richard Dix’s next starring picture, “Moran of i; tho Marines,” now being filmed. A “comedy character known as Elmer the Drunk will be played by Charles Cole- --man, recently of the legitimate stage. Doris Kenyon will play the wife in ount’s film version of the Broad- > way stage hit “Interference,” now in uction under the direction of thar Mendes. The cast includes Clive k, William Powell and Evelyn “Varsity” has been set as the defi- nite title for the first picture starring narles gers.

Crawford Kent has an important role in “Show Folks,” now in produc- tion. Kent deserted pictures to re- turn to the stage several years ago, but recenthy has played in a number of outstanding pictures. William Dietz, who ts photographing the airplane sequences in Rod La Roque‘s present starring picture, “Cap- tain Swagger,” is a licensed pilot and drives his own plane in taking the air shots. Robert Edeson will have one of the principal roles in “The Little Wildcat,” starring Audrey Ferris. He has been selected because of the excellent regis- tering qualities of his voice. The part assigned to the actor calls for a great deal of dialogue on the Vitaphone, The longest-range motion picture scene on record was taken during the battle staged off the southern Cali- fornia coast for First National’s “The Divine Lady.” The scene represented a jglimpse of the engagement through a telescope and was photographed from a distance of 10 mules. Vilma Banky will become a star in her own right, after five cofeatured and costarring films with Ronald Colman, when Samuel. Goldwyn presents her in “The Awakening,” an original story by Francis Marion. . This is a modern story of Alsace-Lorraine and the awakening of a girl’s love-life. Alice Ward, who !s appearing in featured roles of several Sennett com- edies, went on the stage in Rice’s “1492” at the early age of 4. She is the daughter of Charles B. Ward, the celebrated “Bowery Soy,” author of “Here Comes a Sailor” and many other poplar ballads.

EXTRAS GLAD TO BE GIVEN THIS CHANCE Esther Ralston’s plans for uncover- ing screen talent from among the thousands of Hollywood extras has quickly brought a favorable reaction from that colorful army. She received more than 100 letters during the film- ing of her latest picture, “Half a Bride,” now playing at Loew's Columbia, nearly all of them coming from extras, ex- pressing their belief that her project will prove its merit. Her plan its to select one man and one woman from among the extras appearing in “Half a Bride” for small parts in her next production. This procedure she plans to repeat in all of her 1928 pictures. With B. P: Schulberg, associate Para- mount producer, giving the test his ap- proval and interested attention, the star, who herself rose from the extra ranks, has high. hopes for its success “It is merely an effort, which could not have been attempted without Para- mount’s help, to provide a ‘square deal’ for some of the talenteda and ambitious men and women who are struggling along on an occasional day's work at $5 and $7.50," says Miss Ralston. “Many extras with whom | have talked feel teat t e producers are look- ing too far afield for talent while over- looking potential featured players and Stars right here in the studios. More than a dozen of the most prominent players in the pictures today were once extras “The. best part of our plan ts that there are no strings attached \to it. In our trial, the extras who will be given small parts itn my next picture will be simply selected by Mr Schul- berg, Mr. La Cava. director of “Half a Bride;” Mr. Datig, the casting director, and myself. There is no contest and the only requirements are ability and ambition. “It means that the people who pro- vide the ‘atmosphere’ for the scenes will be regarded individually and not as a mob The fortunate ones may be young or old, it doesn’t matter The parts they will play undoubtedly will be* small but the opportunity ‘to stand apart from the crowd will be there, “Of course, it is my hope that the producers will profit as greatly as the players through the display of greater interest and enthusiasm by the extras.” Director La Cava reported that the extars in “Half a Bride” showed more interest and enthusiasm than. were exhibited by five-a-dayers in any pic- ture he had previously made. KNIFE DANCE NEW FEATURE For the first time before any motion picture camera, the barbaric Caucas- sian Cossack knife dance was performea by two Russian warriors when Fred Niblo filmed the lavish ballroom scenes for “The Mysterious Lady.” The knife dancers were members ol! the Cossack regiment brought to this country for the screening of “The Cos- sacks” and remained here to particl- pate in the making of the new Greta Garbo picture. Andre Stadnik and Jock Steklezky, t. : Cossacks, using knives’ they fashioned themselves, did the startling Russian war dance before a crowd of several hundred refugees who are ap- pearing in the production, sending the sharp daggers spinning to the floor | after holding them in their teeth. Hardening their gums and turough constant practice, the Cos- sacks are able to hold five big Knives in their mouths while going through the fiery dance, hurling them out one by one with vigorous jerks of the head. Clara Bow, she admitted the other day, sees an average of about 200 mov- ing pictures a year. She sees virtually ali of them in studio projection rooms and seldom goes to a theater. A NEW TRICK IN PLANNING FILM CITIES A city planning expert as creator of a huge motion pitcure set is the startling innovation in screen construction car- ried out in the building of the sets for John Gilbert’s new Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer vehicle, “The Cossacks,” now playing at Loew’s Palace. The Cossack town in which the pic- ture is laid, constructed in the hills of Laurel Canyon, is an exact replica of such a village in Russia. It was laid out by one of the world's most famous bplanners of cities, who, for years, built actual towns in Europe. Alexander Toluboff is the man. He was One of the foremost of Russian engineers and city bullders before the Bolshevik uprising and was lured into the motion picture field by Cedric Gib- bons, head of the studio’s art depart- ment. Toluboff is a graduate of the Instil- tute of Architects and Engineers of Emperor Alexander 1, a well-known en- gineering college of St. Petersburg be- fore the war. Following the war he came to America, first to practice archi- tecture in San Francisco, where b_ de- signed a number of important build- ings, then to Santa Barbara, where, aft- er the earthquake, he played an im- portant part in the reconstruction of the city. Gibbons induced him to try his hand at the settings for “Mockery” and “Love,” following which he was assigned the task of bullding the town for the new picture. The setting is one of the largest and most remarkable tn the history of the screen, being an entire town, laid out with streets, homes and shops The Russtan church with its bell tower, the “kortschna,” or public assembly place, wayside shrines and other details, are all reproduced with infinite care on land chosen for its topographical re- semblance to a Russian locale. RELIEF FROM EYE TROUBLE NOW ASSURED There are to be no more “kletg eyes.” Already the. news has spread through- out the studios and great rejoicing in consequence. “Kleig eyes,” be it Known, is an ailment due to long subjection to the powerful rays of high-tension lamps For the relief that is positively here credit is due to Warner Bros., who by their experimentation have conclue sively proved that the use of arc lights is not necessary With the us of are lights there was the continual and an- noying sputtering noise, despite all efforts to regulate the current. Hollywood opinion was against the idea that anything could be done No one to date had succeeded in improving on tne arcs The Warner scientists, however, had tackied other hard prob- lems and they went to work on this one. As a result of their experiments it was proved that incandescent lamps of improved pattern could be used and now a system has been devised which is going to throw the old arcs into the discard With “kleig heat and go all danger of eyes.” as well as much of the that came from ‘the old lamps. much of the cumbersome equlp- ment In the filming of “The Lion and the Mouse.” Warner Bros.’ Vita- phone production with May McAvoy, Lione]) Barrymore and an all-star cast now at the Metropolitan, the, new lamps were used with such fine effect that now the whole film industry Is interested in them. them will _—- — GLORIA SOON BEGINS NEXT begin camera her third tin- United Artists in Hollywood who' is to direct Gloria Swanson will work on “The Swamp,” dependently produced Picture, on August 15 Eric Von Stroheim, Miss Swanson’s picture, has nearly finished the script, based on his own original story, which hase its locale in Berlin and German East Africa.

Jobs were scarce, so he went back to the newspaper game, eventually landing on the Los Angeles Times His first work on a movie lot was that of publicity man, but his flair for comedy soon won him a berth as a gag man, or, to use the mor highbrow term, a comedy constructor. This led him onto the feature lot in such pictures as F. W. Murnau’s “Sun- rise" Meanwhile he had been writing original stories, adaptations, and tak- ing a handein the construction of sev- eral plots about the Fox lot His first picture as supervisor was “High School Hero,” which he wrote in collaboration with David Butler This proved so successful that the team Was continued Later the two made “Win That Girl.” The current picture, “The News Parade,” is their third col- laborative effort. In addition, Counselman supervises the productions of Irving Cummings, Benjamin Stoloff and Victor Heerman While doing everything on the Fox lot except direct, Counselman has con- tinued to turn out two comic strips. “Ella Cinders,” which is a/dalily and Sunday feature in The Post, and “Good Time Guy,” He is 32 years old.

For C C Burr ts also a developer of talent. More than one picture celebrity owes his, or her, place in the sun to the keen eye and helping hand of the producer, He has paved the way and showed the road to many He has taken obscure personalities and developed them. He has advised and scolded them as to their defects and short comings. C C Burr selected Johnny Hines to create the role of “‘Torchy”™ when he de- cided to film a series of short comedies from those well-known stories of the same name by Sewell Ford He was not mistaken in his judgment, for the Johnny Hines of thos® days has blos- somed into an ace comedian He nas made feature comedies that have scored successes everywhere. He has never made a failure When Mr. Burr and Johnny were well under way, the producer fought for bet- ter stories for his star His productions became more lavish He was able to spend more money He thinks that he has reached a pleasant rung on the ladder of success with his latest First National picture starring Johnny Hines entitled “Home Made.” which is this week's major screen offering at the Earle Theater It was C C. Burr who paved the road to stardom for such well-known screen luminaries as Norma Shearer, the Cos- tellos, Dorothy Mackall, Billie Dove, Jac. queline Logan, Jopyna Ralston, Diana Kane, Ruth Dwyer and others.

2 F ootlights and Shadows By JOHN J; DALY STODDARD TAYLOR, resident manager of the Belasco Theater, sojourning in London with Mrs. Taylor, is good enougn to © relay to this department views secured from a leading London Manager. In capsule form, they are the embodiment of a very fine comparison between what the American people like in the theater and what appeals to their English cousins across the sea. While S. E. Cochran is the Washington theatrical producer now occupying the spotlight here, C. B. Cochran is the man who has done more in London to bring his name to the front than any of his con- freres. It is the celebrated Charles Cochran who handles the situation thusly: He says, according to Mr. Taylor: New York has become the active creative center of the theatrical world. Naturally, all is not of the best quality; but no other city can show so many first-rate plays ranging from musical comedy to psycholog- ical drama. One can not form a proper estimate of the American theater from plays which are brought to London haphazardly. In two weeks in New York, I saw roughly a score of plays. In nearly every case I was Struck by efficiency of production and the excellence of performances In musica] comedy the high spots were the Ziegfeld productions. “Show Boat” is the most perfect light musical production I have ever seen, but “The Three Musketeers” perhaps displays even more strongly Ziegfeld’s mastery as a producer, because neither the book nor the score has the brilliancy of ‘‘Show Boat.” “The Royal Family” is a light comedy of a high order. The idea is new and amusing. The play is witty, magnificently played and pro- duced with genius by Jed Harris, one of the most vital forces in the American theater. ‘‘Coquette’. is another of Mr. Harris’ successes. Although not a great play, it is an effective bit of ‘‘theater’ superbly produced and played. I do not recall any finer acting than that of Miss Helen Hayes in the leading role. New York is creating a native drama which takes full advantage of the colorful, cosmopolitan crowds which make up the city. We have already seen “Broadway” in London. There is at the Theater Royal a play dealing with the underworld of New York in the '90’s which is even more remarkable. “Di’mond Lil’ catches exactly the spiry of the Bowery as I first knew it in ’91, with its bosses, its thugs, its pro- curers, its cops. “Burlesque” is another example of American production. The sordid side of the cheap American theater is shown with great artistry by Arthur Hopkins, whose productions of O’Neill’s “Anna Christie” and “Hamilet,’”’ with John Barrymore, have been seen in London. . > 7 “ UR London stage lacks manager-producers of the skill and range O of Hopkins and Harris; that, I feel, is what is fundamentally wrong. Good producing managers will find good authors; good players; good productions create good audiences. Strangest anomaly of all in New York is the commercial success of the “intellectual” theater. For instance, one can see the most popular musical show in London for 14s (including tax). A seat for Eugene O’Neill’s “Strange Interlude” in New York costs roughly 27s. The performance begins at 5:30 and continues unti) 11 o’clock, with a short interval for dinner. Seats are very difficult to get and must be booked days ahead. The play is presented by.the Theater Guild of New York, which is about fifty-fifty Anglo-American in its executives, it dramatists and its players. An English actress, Lynne Fontaine, plays magnificently in “Strange Interlude.”’ A swiftly moving adaptation of Ben Jonson’s ‘‘Volpone” is also a Theater Guild production. As in most of the plays I saw in New York, I was struck by the excellence of the lighting. In this respect the Lon- don stage is a quarter of a century behind. A. powerful factor in the success of sometimes indifferent plays is speedy playing without the appearance of undue haste. Another Theater Guild offering is “Porgy,” a play of negro life with rapidly contrasting moments of barbaric beauty and tragic ugliness, re- lieved by the innate racial comedy. “Porgy” held me enthralled. It was an entirely new experience in the theater. One episode showed a “saucer.”’ funeral. Twoscore or more negroes wail spirituals over a dead body. At times their exhorta- tions cease and they count the money contributed to the saucer for funeral expenses. Then their spirituals rise again to a frenzy until further contributions are made. Strange shadows heighten the eerie effect. “Porgy” is stupendous! Sensational! I saw several other plays in New York, but I have mentioned my out- standing memories. » ai vitality of the American theater is due to certain obvious causes. The producing of plays is in the hands of men with a real love of the theater. They think theater, talk theater, live theater only. They are not merely concerned with the letting of, or provision of, plays for theaters which they have on hand. Their pride is in their creations. The Theater Guild of New York, like the Moscow Art Theater, started with the object of producing good plays regardless of com- mercial results. Like the swindler in one of O. Henry’s stories, who accidentally struck oil, both theaters found themselves making more money than any commercial management. The New York public is theater mad. Everybody goes to the theater. ‘People do not go, as in London, to fill up an evening after dinner. If late work at the office makes dinner impossible, a sandwich at the soda fountain will suffice. The theater is more important than food. One hears theater talk over the dinner table, on trains, in subways, in street cars. Space is devoted daily to the theater by all newspapers. The Sunday papers carry theatrical supplements. But Americans are not only interested in theatergoing. They are interested in the theater itself, its personnel and everything about it. A successful theatrical producer excites as much interest as a successful player. A New York audience is eager to see anything new; a London audience distrusts anything new. There is no censorship in New York. Dramatists write with complete freedom, and when a manager oversteps the mark the police close him down. I see no harm in this procedure, It should result in the survival of the most intelligent manager with the highest ideals. , My visit to New York, after an absence of four years, has, I hope, gaved me from becoming old-fashioned. But I have had a narrow escape. R. COCHRAN is rather frank in his expose of the situation. M Theatrical managers from almost any part of the world coming to America find that the.theater in this land is a vital factor in life. Just at the present moment the theater—and by that is meant every phase of theater from the modest little cinema in the neighborhood circle to the elaborate motion picture palaces on Broadway and the so-called legitimate houses—is being imbued with a new flow of life blood. This impetus is derived from none other than the so-called’ talking movie, Just at the present moment the entire theatrical world is agog at possi- bilities of the human voice being perfectly synchronized with the action of the human body on the streen. So vast are the possibilities of this new a of entertainment that the theater itself is worried for fear the motion picture will take away its last vestige of supremacy, So worried are the motion picture people that it is felt the theater may win back its lost battlegrounds. There is consternation in all quarters, Yet the whole thing will probably adjust itself as adjustments have always taken place in the past. In America the theater has become so intimately related to the lives of the people that family budgets are often apportioned to take care of this entertainment. An outstanding example is prevalent in this city. Patrons of the National Theater Players the moment the summer season is announced march to the box office or write letters to the management and engage certain seats for the entire season. These people have such a love for the theater that they rarely, if ever, miss a week within its confines. The theater is a gripping thing.

Booth Tarkington's comedy, “Clarence,” made from his book of the same name, will be the attraction all the week at the National Theater, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. While Mark Twain first sounded the depths of boyhood thoughts in his celebrated characterizations of Tom Sawyer and Huckiecberry Finn, it is belieyed that Booth Tarkington really was the first to wrench from this same source a modern twist that is distinctly of the present time and age. Boys and girls of today are, because of living conditions and changing methods of life, totally different from the old-time idea of boyhood and girlhood. When Mr. Tarkington wrote “Seventeen,” it was considered he had done something never before approached‘in American literature. When he followed this with “Clarence,” the critics took off their hats to him and immeatately New York play producers beseeched him to make the book into a comedy drama. Booth Tarkington acquiesced, with the result that “Clarence” became one of the most popular plays ever produced on Broadway. So wide was its appeal that it toured the country for two seasons, playing in every large city in America and in some of the smaller towns. Since then, it has been a regular fa- vorite in stock companies throughout the length and breacth of the land. The production at the National The- ater all this week marks the first Tark- ington Ne mga that has been played in Washington since its author. came down himself with a new play for Miss Billie Burke. Every effort has been made on the part of the management of the National Theater Players to produce “Clarence” exactly as it was played in New York City. Because of their past experiences, the players are admirably fitted to portray the various roles in this sparkling comedy of Amer- lean life. Special scenery and added talent have been secured to augment the regular roster of thespians and excellent parts are assigned to Miss Leona Powers, the leading lady: How- ard Miller, the leading man: Edward Arnold, Billy Phelps, Mrs. Hibbard and Helen Wallace. Glen Echo Park. Glen Echo Park each year sees im- provements in tried and trusted amuse- ments, and sees as well many innova- tions, most of which blossom at this resort after their attractions are dis- covered in other cities. In this latter class is the aeroplane swing, one of the first to make its appearance. This device is enjoying great popularity, and is well worth a visit to the park. Other features are the coaster dip and derby racer; the old mill, the whip, and the scooter: The hospitality of Glen Echo Park extended to picnic parties at all times is well known. Scarcely a day passes that the street cars are not arriving with capacity crowds, out for a day of genuine enjoy- ment. Another red letter attraction at the park this year is the fine ba!]) room where McWilliams and his or- chestra have established themselves in the hearts of dance lovers. Gien Echo Park is easily reached by the Glen Echo or Cabin John street cars, or by auto over the ‘smooth Conduit road Chevy Chase Lake. Out at Chevy Chase Lake, everything ig still “zippyr’ with two ace bands of the Myer Davis organization booming along at a glib rate. The Swanee Syncopators are sound- ing off on one pavilion, the other band under the direction of Ben Levine. Crowds are flocking to the lake these warm nights. All roads lead to Chevy Chase, it seems, and the boys and girls get there by street car or motor car. It makes no difference, so they arrive. Benefit Prenie. August 2 is going to be a big day at Glen Echo Park. It marks the an- nual excursion of the National Union Hospital Association. This picnic is to raise funds for a worthy cause. Jack Marshall is chairman of the out- ing, while Miss Helen Rye an is assisting. Brev ity. Since brevity is the soul of wit, Billy Phelps suggests that those afternoon performances at the end of the week be called “Satinees.”’ Q Howard Miller in “Clarence” —Nation al. WRITER WHO UNDERSTANDS SUBJECT COMES TO STAGE VINTILLIAN'S first law of rheto- ric was that the writer be a good man. In the make-shift of the present day theater, that law has, of necessity, gone by the boards; for a good magn could not always write the plays that attract the current class of theater-goers. Nor is this to say, either, that bad men of necessity write some of the Broadway drama The point is, a man, to know his material, must mingle with the class of people of whom he writes. Thus, in a round- about way, the road leads to Booth Tarkington.’ He is the outstanding author today who writes of adolescent youth. His play, “Clarence,” which comes to the National this week is one of the outstanding works from his laboratory. A playwright of great diversity in the forms and qualities of his art, Booth Tarkington's “Clarence,” is one of the most delightfully whimsical comedies that has appeared on the American stage in the present century. “Clarence” is a play built on humor, wit and plain, downright comedy, The opening of the play shows a modern family, that is, as far as family life can be, scatterei i all four directions of the compass. Brother Bobble and Sister Cora are growing up into the | modern world so fast that they are/| leaving their parents behind them, as most children of this generation do These twain, however, are going so fast that they strike terror in the hearts ~f their parents. Father and mother are, therefore, nonentities in the eyes of Brother Bobbie and Sister Cora. This is the starring point of Booth Tarking- ton’s play and he has thrown in an added disturbance by introducing a governess who ‘s the innocent cause of much disturbance all through the play. From the war comes Clarence, a per- fect specimen of bespeckled, long- armed ineptitude, as some one has very vividly described it. How Clarence got into the bosom of this family is some- thing else again, but he landed—like the Marines. In a short time, he is the master of the entire situation. All the others are his slaves. When the National Theater Players undertake to revive this celebrated comedy for the week beginning tomor- row night, there ts no doubt that they will bring to it the touch that is fieces- sary in any Tarkington play, and that is a light, deft sort.of playing which makes for spontaneous laughter and sparkling comedy. Without this, a Tarkington play is a dud, and “Clar- ence,”’ above all others, for it depends solely upon splendid character divina- tion. With the réturn of Miss Leona Pow- ers, the leading lady of the National Theater Players, and the popular re- ception of Mr. Howard Miller, the new leading man, the players have taken on a new lease of life, a touch and go to their playing, as evidenced by the dash and dart given “The Nightcap” last week. While “Clarence” is a to- tally different play from this recent melodrama, ‘The Nightcap,” it demands just about as delicate a touch. It has |to do with the talkative young sophis- ticates of the day, and is, therefore, more of the moment than when writ- ten in 1919. Most of the varied charac- terizations in this comedy, almost all the outstanding parts, are equally good, and Mrs. Hibbard will regain her star- dom, laid aside since her splendid por- trayal in “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch.” Edward Arnold, that sturdy old warrior of the National Theater Players, will also have a splendid part, and so will Billy Phelps, Charles Hamp- den and Robert Brister. In fact, the players will necessarily have to be aug- mented this week by some of the folk who have been contributing to the presentations in the National. Activities in Ya. €. A. Circles The regular music and at home hour will be given in the sun parlor of the YY, W. C. A..at Seventeenth and EK streets this afternoon at 5 p. m., when Miss Estelle Bozeman, the staff hostess, will be in charge.

Lytle, and Inge Von Lewinski, daughter of German Consul General of New York, Doctor Von Lew- inski. These girls, together with Helen Middleton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Middleton, were selected by the group last week as the most rep- resentative girls on camp and were nominated for the camp council for the year 1928-1929. The dramatics group presented two pantomines on Friday evening, ‘“‘Melo- drammer”’ and “Celestial Love.” The cast of “Celestial Love” was: Ting Ling—Eldridge Loeffler; Boo Boo—Mar- guerite Norris; Mandarin—Luelille Bow- per; Tip Low—-Frances Webb; How Doo —Eleanor Lee; Servant to Mandarin— Gretchen Geiger; Stage Manager, Mona Laurent. Vacation Lodge. Last Sunday evening Mrs. B. T. Hyn- son, of Washington, led the vesper service at the Lodge, and spoke on the subject “Love For All Men, or the 8o- cial Creed of Jesus.” The many guests who came out to dinner last Sunday swelled the usual Lodge family to 48. During the week those who entertained guests for din- ner were Misses Margaret, French, Cor- rinne Christian, Violet Morling, Bailey, Smith and Wasmuth. Miss Bertha Luedders, who has been at the Lodge since the opening, left last week for the summer residence of the German Embassy, at Manchester by the Sea, She will return to the Lodge later in the summer. New Members of the Lodge family in- clude Miss Arnett, Miss Sylvia Speare, and Miss Charlotte Schepelman, of the | Prizes German Embassy office here. There were several week-end guests FAIR ROSA PONSELLE IS IN DEMAND Rosa Ponselle’s great vocal powers, which have won for her general recog- nition as the outstanding soprano of the present day—particularly since her great success last season with the Metropolitan Opera Company in “Nor- ma”—have created such interest in her appearances in concert that every available date she can offer for the sea- son of 1928-29 has already been booked, and many cities are clamoring for her at the earliest opportunity. Washington will not be one of the cities overlooked, however, for she will appear here at Poli’s Theater on Tues- day afternoon, February 19, as the fourth attraction in Mrs. Wilson- Greene's philharmonic course, which also includes concerts by Vladimir Hor- owitz, the sensational young pianist; Jascha Heifetz, the brilliant violinist; Martinello, celebrated tenor of the Metropolitan Opera Company, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which, under the baton of Serge Koussevitzky, is hailed as the finest of all American symphonic organizations. Rosa Ponselle will give a series of concerts in the northeastern section of this country prior to October 15, when she joins the Metropolitan Opera Com- pany, with which she will appear reg- ularly until February. Then come her Washington concerts and others in the East, and thereafter she will tour the Pacific Coast, SS ee March in Los Angeles, San ancisco, Seattle, Portland and other large cities of the West. She will return via Chicago for a brief tour with the Metropolitan. Ponselle’s personal popularity is as great as her artistic ability. Hers is a typically American story of success. She was born in Connecticut, and when the power and range of her voice won attention, she and her sister en- tered vaudeville, where they soon be- came headliners. Then came the dramatic story of her sister’s sacrifiae s0 that Rosa might prepare for grand opera, and finally her tremendous suc- cess in that medium-—a success incom- parably greater than that of any other soprano of the present generation, since her exceptional ability made pos- sible the revival, after 35 years, of Bellini’s “Norma,” a work of such tech- nical difficulty that no other artist, in all those years, has been able to sing the title role. Her triumph here in “Norma” was the outstanding event of Washington's recent brilliant Metropolitan season, and following the performance, which was attended by the President and Mrs. Coolidge. she was presented to them at the White House. Rosa Ponselle does not agree in the least with the popular view that size is essential to success in grand opera. She is only of medium stature, and she insists that all the vocal effects necessary can be obtained by practice rather than by poundage. When she joined the Metropolitan, Caruso was in his zenith of success, and his prompt recognition of her ability shortly made her one of the closest friends of the great tenor. Forgets the Number. Miss Leona Powers, leading lady of the National Theater Players, thinks nothing of cross-country hops. She has been back and forth across the continent so many times she has for- gotten the exact number. Incidentally, she has made the journey by railroad, driven her own car and gone part of the distance by airplane. _-—~— ee Gone By the Boards. Most of the plays that the National Theater Players have done this season will never again be seen in stock. Some of them are to be made into musical comedies, others are slated for the movies. The latest to go Holly- wood way is “‘Interference,”’ one of the biggest hits in Washington. | Coming Attractions “What Anne Brought Home,” a play from the pen of Larry E. Johnson, which was presented at Wallach’s Theater, New York City, by Earl Car- roll last year, will be the attraction at the National Theater next week, begin- ing Monday night, August 6. Larry Johnson hit upon quite a novel theme when he wrote “What Anne Brought Home.” It is one, in fact, that should appeal to every young girl in the uni- verse, that is, every girl who at any time in her life hopes to be married. At the same time, the thematic con- tent of “What Anne Brought Home” hits a hearty chord in the hearts of fathers and mothers. For what Anne actually did bring home in this play was a husband—and every one of a girl's relatives — is interested in her husband. Just from this mere outline it is easily seen that the entrance of Anne to her old home after a sojourn away, when she annexed a husband, it fraught with great possibilities, either for tragedy or comedy. If the old folks turn Anne out, Anne and her husband, there is tragedy. If they let them in, which they do in this play, there ts comedy. It so happens that Larry Johnson wrote “What Anne Brought Home” with one purpose only, and that was to elicit laughter. When the play reached Broadway, it became an in- stantaneous success, merely because it had in its this element of universal appeal. The National Theater Players, with Miss Leona Powers playing the title role in the play, and Moward Miller the acquisition that Anne brought home, are prepared for a week of utter frivolity, since that is what the script calls for—a blending of the ridiculous with the sublime. There will be the usual Wednesday and Saturday matinees, Sails for Europe With an Orchestra Karl R. Whipp, well-known Washing- ton musician, sailed for Europe aboard the U. 8S. 8. America recently with his orchestra, the Original California Weav- ers. From now until fall the orches- tra will make five trips. In order to secure the contract his orchestra tried out against 29 other orchestras. Whipp ts acting as business manager of the orchestra and Henry Davis as leader. The members of the orchestra are Earl R. Whipp, Henry Davis, Henri Pickens, Edward Parks, Dick Deery and Ralph Graves. Whipp, as a musician in the Army a few years ago, saved a building and | valuable property at Walter Reed Hos- pital by his initiative in blowing fire call when he observed the smoke and investigated. He was cited for his act. Realizes Ambition. His name in front of the National Theater is an ambition long cherished by Howard Miller, leading man of the) National Theater Players. In the course of an interesting career in the theater Mr. Miller has played stock in all four corners of the country; but this is his first time in the Na- tion’s Capital. "I hope,” he says, “it won’t be my last, because this is my idea of a wonderful city—all the good things that anybody ever said about it are true.” Congratulations. Mrs. Adelaide Hibbard Is still receiv- ing congratulatory letters for her ad- mirable work in the leading role of “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch.” “One fine thing about patrons of the National Theater Players,” opines Mrs. Hibbard, “is this: Whenever any one in the cast does something that meets with popular approval, the folks out front let us know about it. Yet there are those who say Washington audi- ences are not appreciative, That is er- roneous.” AMONG MUSICIANS By ELISABETH.E. POE. ASHINGTON musicians learned W with regret the other day of the death in this city of Dr. Anton Gloetzner, the composer and in- structor of Geraldine Farrar and other noted artists, who had been a resident of the National Capital for more than 50 years. Dr. Gloetzner founded the Wagner Society, of which Maud Powell, the violinist, was a member for several years. Among his own compositions which achieved favorable notice was a sonata for organ and some 30 other compositions for violin, cello and voice and church selections, In addition, he composed works for orchestra in Gre- gorian style and several masses for male and femals voices and the organ. A native of Bavaria, where he was trained in his art, Dr. Gloetzner was a thorough musician, modest and un- assuming but constantly working at his compositions. His style was of the Classic school and he stood for the solid things in music. For a long time he had the chair of music at George- town University, where he taught organ, piano, harmony, counterpoint and composition. Georgetown made him a doctor of music. Good attendance | is noted at the out-of-doors concerts of the military bands stationed in and around Wash- ington. It is noticeable that these bands present really elaborate pro- grams, giving the people the best there is in orchestral and band music and thus creating a greater appreciation of music in the minds of the people | of the city, Many of the programs played by the service bands are broad- cast by radio. Thus additional thou- sands in the vicinity of the Capital are enabled to hear the Washington bands. Mrs. Florence Brooks-Aten, of New York, has offered $6,000 in cash prizes in a competition for a new national anthem for the United States of America. All rights to the composi- tions submitted wi)! be reserved for the authors. Mrs, Brooks-Aten who in 1923 founded the Brooks-Bright Foundation for the promotion of better under- standing between the peoples of America and of Great Britain, wishes to stimulate an interest in and an enthusiasm for national patriotic song. The competition is open to Ameri- can citizens whether native born or naturalized. The prize winning an- them may be the work of one or more individuals. The capital prize for the winning an them is $3,000; the second price, $1,000, and ten prizes of $100 each. In the preliminary contest for words only, ten of $100 each will be awarded, All compositions will be received at Na- tional Anthem Competition headquar- ters, 342 Madison avenue, New York ald Werrenrath, also formerly of the | Metropolitan Opera Company, and Dr. Sigmund Spaeth, prominent music critic, are also judges. Two more judges are yet to be selected. Elena de Sayn has gone to North | Carolina, where at the head of her string quartet she will be heard in con- certs, This is the second tour of the quartet. Miss de Sayn will teach an in- tensive course of violin pedagogy and repertoire in Asheville after a short va- cation in the mountains of Little Swit- zerland, N. C., returning to Washington early in September. On Friday evening, August 3, Dr. Sig- mund Spaeth will deliver a lecture in the auditorium at the University of Maryland on “Jazzmania.” This is the concluding entertainment of a series of four lectures and concerts given during the summer school. PLANS MADE FOR WINTER‘ The Community Institute of Wash- ington will present, this season, its sec- ond annual series of ten outstanding events of educational and cultural in- terest beginning October 31, in the auditorium of Central Community Cen- ter, following last season’s remarkable success along drama and music, art, science and literary lines. The program as announced for the coming season is quite equal to, and in many respects surpasses, that of the first year, and reservations for the sea- ¥ son are being rapidly made at the of- fices of the Community Institute, in the Franklin Administration Bullding, Thirteenth and K streets northwest. Leading music and drama events are the Flonzaley Quartet on January 17 on their farewell tour of the United States; Daisy Jean, in a recital of her delightful songs with harp accompani- ment and cello, on November 14, and Sydney Thompson, in her original plays and old legends in costume, on Decem- ber 5. Other outstanding events course will include such popular lec- turers as Dr. Richard E. Burton, on “The Younger Generation Speaks;” Henry Turner Bailey on “How to Look | at a Picture and What to Get Out of It;” Norman Angell on “The Crises in Democracy;” Dr. Bruno Roselli on “Leptis Magna;” Will Durant on “Is Progress a Delusion;” Dr. Harlow Shap- ley on “Star Stuff;” and Thornton Wilder on “The Bridge of San Luls Rey.” Three of the talks, those of Bailey, Roselli, and Shapley will be illustrated. Le Paradis Roof. At Le Paradis Roof Garden, under the direction of Bert Bernath, the Le Paradis dance music programs are reaching a new height. Director Ber-~ nath subscribes to the modernistic type of dance music. Le Paradis: syncopation is very much like Fourth of July fire- works—full of light, color and tricky surprises. July will be high-lighted by several | surprise flesta nights at Le Paradis, the |exact attractions of which will be an- ' | nounced later. “Theatrical Night,” tae midweek attraction which is regularly a Thursday feature, is to be continued throughout the summer without inter- ruption. Le Parad@is furnishes an ideal back- ground for informal entertaining and, as such, is chosen for the many small parties now being given by society hostesses of official Washington who | are remaining here during the summer. | | | | | that will Marshall Hall.

——- —— — — ‘Raucous Horn Is Discord In Symphonic Motoring Responsibility for Maintaining Motordom’s Poise in Hands of Car Owners—Manufacturer Doing His Share by Making Horns More Pleasantly Tuned. By WILLIAM ULLMAN, The long shrill blast of a horn. A startled pedestrian abruptly awakened te an automobile bearing down on him. Screeching brakes, The traffic stream moves on. How many times is this scene, sketch- @d in thumb-nalil fashion, enacted on the streets of any community? § It would be truly impossible even to hazard a guess as to its frequency, but it is safe to say that there are many persons to whom it epitomizes the trend of modern motor car traffic. If such a condition were at all neces- Sary, it would still be an evil to be de- cried, but mechanical genius has proved itself so efficient that the raucous au- tomobile horn is a discordant note that is distinctly an unnecessary disharmony in the realm of motordom. If the strident warning were irreme- diable, it would be a matter for definite regret on the part of those who make automobile horns and those who use them, but the situation calls for no Such misgivings. There are remedies if they will but be applied. Three factors are involved in this sit- wation which annoys the pedestrian and which in some minds indicts the motorist as an individual who is armed with a weapon instead of a means of transportation. They are the manufac- turer, the automobile owner and the person who looks upon the sidewalk as @ haven from motor cars. Trend Toward Soft Tones. It may be said at the outset that the manufacturer is doing his part more and more. He is making a horn which constantly is being attuned to the pleasant impressions of life. The trend is unmistakably in the direction of the softer, more appealing notes which are suggestive of the friendly accord that should prevail between the man who rides and the one who uses nature's mode of transportation. Since the manufacturer is producing horns of far more pleasant tone, horns which may be kept in a state of adjust- ment that will suppress none of their symphonic qualities, the responsibility for maintaining motordom’s poise con- sequently is shifted by right- -minded motorists to those 6bwners of automo- biles who misuse their herns. What they are doing to contribute their need to the desired solution of this vexing problem may be revealed by a little self-examination. Use of a motor car is recognized as implying a social duty which exacts proper handling so as to harm no one, If driving an automobile is a privilege, we are constantly reminded that it is not one which permits an untrammeled existence. Always the motorist must be watching carefully for the person who may be endangered by his car. Every one agress that it must be kept under control and so manipulated that it will be mutually unharmful. .This reasoning necessarily implies that an automobile be kept in normal condition. Brakes must be efficient, lights sufficiently bright to illuminate the roadway, and every other part of the mechanical equipment and every important accessory so maintained that safe driving will be assured. Horn Is Warning Device. The horn fits into the scheme of things as a warning signal. It is nota means.of venting one’s spleen at the jaywalker, nor is it intended to permit one to drive the faster by sounding shrill blasts that signify that a speed- ing car is approaching. If this were the case, a horn would be an evil instead of a benefit, and whenever it does ap- pear as an evil there is usually misuse. Assuming that the manufacturing trend is in the direction of better horns, the remainder of the solution of the perplexities of the problem lies with usage, if the device is properly adjusted. When is a horn used properly and when is it a raucous disturbance that benefits no one? In seeking an apswer to this question it must be remernabered that both mo- torists and pedestrians are affected. The motorist, having used a horn him- self, will more readily understand the meaning of a warning signal. The pe- destrian, experience teaches us, is the one likely to confuse the shrill blast and step into danger where he should be making a hasty retreat. The form of usage, after all, seems to be largely the effectiveness of the warning. But it will be seen that the signal is effective only when there is proper use. It is a circle of reasoning that is far from vicious. Loudness Jangles Nerves. If the warning then is understand- able, it will be effective, otherwise the sharp blast which would seem to be- token the approach of a speeding car would send pedestrians scurrying to shelter needlessly. Not only Is the ex- tremely loud, ill-toned horn an annoy- ance, butthereisthe ever-present pos- sibility of it suddenly jangling the nerves of an overwrought pedestrian 60 as to make his escape from danger a virtual impossibility. There is a rather clear psychologic cause lying back of this. Hearing, we are told, is a nerve reaction brought by vibrating air waves which affect the organ of hearing and send the sensa- tion to the brain., The psychologist dis- tinguishes between noises and tones, defining the former as irregular sounds. The horn that just emits a sporadic and ill-defined noise he would con- sider ineffective, and the one that is properly toned is characterized as the one which warns with certainty. Ef- fectiveness also is held to be depend- ent upon the fact that the jarring sound is distinctly unpleasant, where- as a definite pleasantness is associated with a regular, even tone. The views of the psychologist are borne out by the model regulation on horns of the uniform vehicle code of the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety. This reads: Horn Provision of. Code. “Every motor vehicle when operated upon a highway shall be equipped with a horn in good working order capable of emitting sound audible under nor- mal conditions from a distance of not less than 200 feet, and it shall be un- lawful except as otherwise provided in this section, for any vehicle to be equipped with or for any person to use upon a vehicle any siren, exhaust, com- pression or spark plug whistle or for any person at any time to use a horn otherwise than as a reasonable warn- ing or to make any unnecessary or un- reasonably loud or harsh sound by means of a horn or other warning de- vice.” The exception permits the use on police and fire department vehicles and emergency ambulance bells, sirens or whistles of an approved type. Thus jt would seem that the move- ment in the direction of a clear, modu- lated horn signal is well under way, with the manufacturer doing his part and formulation of traffic codes en- deavoring to eliminate the sharp blast from the motoring bedlam. [To the ob- server who has followed the evolution of motordom’s attitude it also is ap- parent that the automobile driver also is well into the procession. That the tendency will continue is the fond hope of those who will be driving when many more millions of cars are on the streets and highways in the years that are drawing swiftly closer. Advent of Auto Reforms Road Maintenance System Among the changes which the advent of the automobile has brought about, @ survey shows, is one in the methods of securing labor for construction and maintenance of roads. In the early days of the country’s history, virtually all roads were built by statute labor, that is, by the able-bodied citizens living along the roads. This was a custom apparently carried over from the old feuda] system of Europe, As late as 1904, there were 36 States which had a statute-labor or poll tax law in force which could be paid by working on the highways. Some of the States, Mississippi, for example, re- quired that all male persons over 18 and under 50 years of age, unless by law exempt, work on the public roads for a period not to exceed ten days. In emergency, they could be required to work a longer period. Other States, EEE — i jAaco GAS te AMERICAN OIL macend wth Pen Amerian 2 Seanpon Comosey WALTIMQRS. Ce e-¢ os Michigan was one, required but a single day’s work. Im lieu of working, the Mississippi law provided for the payment of $5. In the case of Michigan the statute-labor tax was $1. In some States these laws probably 'still are on the books, although unen- forced except insofar as collecting the tax is concerned. One reason is that with the present methods of building highways, contractors can do better work by having their own labor supply over which they have complete control. Vacuum Tank Float Is Easily Repaired If the vacuum tank float leaks and becomes filled with gasoline, it will not function until repairs are made, These are simple and require but little time. The cover of the tank should be re- moved and the float detached. To de- termine the position of the leaks, im- merse the float in hot water. The bub- bles will indicate the location of the leaks, Drain the fuel from the float by punching two small holes in it if shak- ing fails to produce the desired result After making certain no fuel is left in the float, solder all holes, using as little solder as is practicable, Common sense and courtesy are the chief elements of safe driving. hn NO Oi GA OE.

AUTO IMPROVEMENTS OUTLINED BY OWNERS Quiet Engines at High Speeds and Smoothness of Per- formance Noted. No motorist will dispute the state- ment that cars have been improved mightily during the past few years. In fact, the average csutomobile driver willingly will launch into a lengthy discussion on the subject. Rarely, however, wiil he give positive reasons, generally satisfying himself with sweep- | ing generalities. One motorist who has owned six cars in the last six years, and who has taken detailed interest in them, round- ed up what he considers to be the main points of betterment. Here they are: “he motor, although basically the Same, has been smoothed out and re- fined in a manner that would have seemed beyond all expectation in 1922. Although the cur, even in: the earlier period, was characterized by especial fleetness, the current model its infinitely superior in this respect. The old en- gine was noisy The new version is so quiet it scarcely can be heard. In the matter of power transmission the car has been equally improved. The old car had a cone clutch. After a few months it eithe took hold with a spine-wracking grab falled to take hold at all. The current model starts off with perfect smoothness There is no comparison between the driving ease of the two cars. One ap- preciates steering simplicity as it ts built into cars today, only if he har a chance to compare it with what passed as the same quality but a few years ago. Chain Hoist Helps In Home Repair Jobs If the celling timbers of the garage are sufficiently heavy, the motorist who does his own car repairing will find the addition of a chain hoist to permit raising the front end of the car a de- cided advantage to his work. In build- ing a private garage, it is well to take into consideration that a hoist is cheaper than a pit when the cementing and draining costs are taken into con- sideration. A good chain hoist tis easily, rately and safely handled. accu- Autoists Use Aviator Terms. Aviation’s vernacular is being adopt- ed in the motor field. The peak speed of one of the recently introduced cars is referred to as its speed “ceiling.” In aviation the term means the highest point at which a given plane can travel. It sounds snappy as applied to an automobile. Among Us Motorists Discussing Those Matters That Concern Us By WILLIAM ULLMAN—~— The shortest way to the hospital is the inside of the curve. He’ Traffic gin stant s a Nuisance, Too. light inchers, those who be- move slowly forward the in- ‘he am or caution signal to | flashes, deserve the denunciation of al! law-abiding motorists. So does that other type of incher, the one who eases his way ahead every time he feels the traffic cop is not looking directly at him. But, in beratfhg these two, one ts tempted to forget that equally deserv- ing of condemnation is the type of motorist who is the opposite of the incher—the sleeper. Every driver has met the sleeper somewhere at some time. He is to be found at most light- controlled intersections, at grade cross- ings, at policed corners in the con- gested zone and at other places where t’ > traffic stream halts as a body The sleeper scarcely needs a defini- tion. He is the chap who, when he is stopped, seems to forget that he ever will be allowed to move again. When the light ahead is red, he pays no at- tention to the fact that within a few seconds it will be green again. He has to be inforried of the change by means of a violent blowing of horns on the part of all the motorists whose way he is blocking. In his most annoying form, the sleeper is found to let his motor die while waiting for the grade crossing to clear. After the train has passed, suddenly brought back to conscious- ness by the blaring of scores of horns. he gets into action slowly and dellber- ately. In his own good time he gets under w-y with no thought of those behind. The incher, indeed, ts rightfully pil- loried, wut motordom should not for- get the sleeper. He's a nulsance, too. More Golden Silence. Motor car manufacturers have been convince’ t’ 6 silence in the operation of their products is golden. Quiet cars have a wide appeal. Motorcycle makers, at last, have been converted to the idea. The twq largest producers of the two-wheelers have announced that next year they will equip all their engines with mufflers It will make hearing the motorcycle cop more difficult, but then the rear- view mirror arrived before the motor- cycle muffler. The motorist can be grateful for that. Research Has Rewards.

According to Arthur R. Berresford, of New York, president of the council, the cities in which the survey was made mainly were .of 50,000 population or over, although, he says, some were chosen because of special conditions or development. All of the largest and most important cities from the stand- point of traffic’ control were included, and a large majority of the States have representation by thelr principal cities. It is believed, Mr. Berresford states, that all conditions and methods of traffic control have been investigated Signs Indispensable. “Adequate signs,” the report begins, “are a great aid to the drivers of ve- hicles, and consequently are an im- portant factor in safeguarding and ex- pediting traffic, especially in congested city streets.” “To be adequate for this service,” the council's comprehensive statement of its findings continues, “every sign should be thoroughly designed and carefully placed so as to convey its needed message clearly and briefly at exactly the place required. This means simplification of wording, standardiza- tion of color, shape, lettering and lo- cation, announcement of its official authority if legally required, and the removal of every unofficial sign which in any way conflicts with these Te- quirements. “Regardless of how effective signs may appear, results wil: not be obtained without zealous enforcement of the regulations which the signs promul- gate, without which no system of equipment can be effective.” Sizes and Shapes Given. The report states that cast metal (iron or aluminum), sheet metal (steel or aluminum), and wood may be used in making signs. Enamel and paint fininshes are suggested. Both material and finish, it is pointed out, should oe selected primarily for durability and secondarily for cost. Specifications proposed by the Joint Board of Inter- state Highways and the U. S. Bureau of Standards are recommended for all signs. The shapes of signs are outlined eas follows: Railroad grade rk Tin Rae ln ml tte ry the gasoline tax stop, Octagonal; slow, indicating con- ditions inherent in the roadway ree quiring caution, diamond; caution, in- dicating conditions’ adjacent to the Street requiring caution, square; one- way and detour, arrow; direction and information, rectangular; restriction, rectangular. All signs, the report continues, should be made of the specified di- mensions if possible, but in cases where existing equipment varies somewhat from the specifications it may be used provided the general pro- portions are the same. The specified dimensions are unl- formly smaller than those presented in the code of the American Assocla- tion of State Highway Officials for the reason that the signs do not need to be visible so far away wher vehicles are traveling at the slower average speeds of city traffic. The following colors for signs are recommended: Railroad crossing, yellow with black letters; stop, yellow with red letters; slow, yellow with black letters; cau. tion, yellow with black letters; On@- way and detour, white with black let- ters: direction and information, white with black letters; restriction, no parking, orange with white letters; re- striction, limited parking, green with white letters. The stop sign color combination is recommended as a practical com- promise between the two color schemes which have been in general use, yellow with black letters or red with white letters, recommended respectviely by the joint board on interstate high- ways and the traffic signal color code committee. Standardization Urged. The new recommended color cOMe« bination continues the use of the es tablished yellow background, but rec~ ognizes the accepted meaning attached to the color ' ‘red” by substituting it for the color “black” for the word * ‘stop.” This has particular value whenever the word is illuminated from behind or is made of reflecting material. “The specified word arrangements of signs should be used without varia- tion because standardization is of the highest importance in this feature,” the report maintains. “The wordings have been developed with the objective of using the fewest possible simple words, so arranged as to convey @ COm~ plete message. Equivalent words may be substituted, if the size and arrange- ment are followed. “Signs should be illuminated 60 a8 to be visible at night as well as 12 daylight.

PRICES OF 18 MODELS ARE SLIGHTLY CHANGED Narrower, Deeper Radiator imparts Novel Appearance; Unique Fittings. Considerably redesigned as to body lines and refined both in appointments and mechanical details, Buick has stepped forth into the automotive spotlight with a new line of products ta..mark that plionecr organization's Silver anniversary. With three lines of mew cars Buick now moves into its twenty-sixth year as a factor in the manufacturing division of the industry. The 1929 Buick is offered in three series, the 116-inch wheelbase, the 121- inch wheelbase and the 129-inch wheelbase. The former is 1% inches longer than comparable models of last year, while the latter two each are 1 inch longer than the 1928 types. Thus, the trend toward longer automobiles becomes still more pronounced. Among the three lines are a total of eighteen different models, or two more than were available last year. Th appearance, the new Buick is an emphatic departure. The radiator, first of all, is considerably deeper, and much Narrower in appearance. It is sur- mounted by a low cap of unobtrusive aésign. Back from the radiator and through the hood to the chromium plated cowl band, the body designers on either side have worked a well- molded crease, and this thought then is carried through to the rear of the car in the form of a rounded surface. The body, which hds been con- tributed by Fisher, gives the impres- sion of rugged strength and at the same time is smoothly good-looking. The new Buick has no jagged edges. but rather is extremely symmetrical and gracefully curved. The entire idea is accentuated by the wide, sweeping one-piece fenders which show attention to detail in that they include a “lip” design in harmony with the curve of the radiator shell. Novel Design Hub Caps. A. point of interest in the matter of appearance is the treatment given the hub caps. These are broad and flat, different fiom Furthermore, there now is a metal cover, finely fin- ished, over the hib, which gives an added touch of grace Enough, for the moment, to give an impression of the general appearance of the car. Now as to its mechanical Situation. The motor, of course, is the which Buick has found successful for many years—that is. six cylinders, valve-in-head. Bore and stroke have been increased, and refinements insti- tuted throughout, so that greater power is deveioped at all speeds. When speaking of engfne refinements, it is meant, for instance, that the cam- Shaft has been reaesignued to give great- er valve opening; that the carburetor and manifolding have been improved; and that connecting rod construction has been engineered clency. An important change is the use of & gasoline pump in place of the for higher effi- vacutm tank as a fuel feed system. In order to take care of the greater power of the engine. the frame has been strengthened anda all reciprocat- ing parts have been treated accord- ingly. In consequence, the new cars are heavier than the former ones—in some cases the increase is 250 pounds. Prices Little Changed. Reduction has been. made size of the wheels, now of 20-inch rim to gain the end of preater strength and the appearance of heavy rugged- ness, which the designers have wrought in other features of the car Prices are about the same as they have been, although where changes have been effected «hey have been in an upward direct‘on, io: the most part.

In the latter list the seven-passenger touring car and the limousine will be noted as having made their reappear- ance. In respect to the seven-passenger touring car, inquiry develops an in- teresting situation. Although there is some demand in this country for a car of this type, the main purpose of the inclusion of it in the line is to eupply the overseas market, which requires such a vehicle. Thus is presented the rather unusual situation of the domeés- tic consumer finding available a model which probably otherwise would not be offered were it not for the fact that out-of-the-country demand was vigor- ous. Buick, according to information at hand, has not made either the seven- passenger touring models nor the lim- ousine since 1923. Equipment of Interior.

WITHOUT SPARK PLUG “Hot Tube” Heated With Blow-Torch Made to Serve Motorists. Engineers whose researches have car- ried them into that particular field call attention to the interesting fact that the first automobiles sold to the ploneer motorists of America were not equipped with spark plugs. In the original one-cylinder car, ignition was accomplished by what was known as a “hot tube” which had to be preheated by the motorist, usually with a blowtorch. This hot tube is said to have been one of the chief causes of uncertainty in driving during the early days of the automobile. It was slow in reaching the right temperature uncertain in Its functioning, and its use fraught with difficulty and danger to the owner According to these same engineers, the first spark plugs were “surprisingly bad” and, it is said, they would not last a minute at wide open throttle if used in one of the present-day engines. “AIDING” AUTO CLUTCH WEARS OUT BEARINGS Despite Many Warnings, Some Drivers Still Make Footrest of Pedal. INCREASES END’ PLAY “Riding the clutch,” that bad driv- ing habit which so many motorists still retain, not only causes wear in the clutch itself, but also frequently gives rise to serious crankshaft end- play. Despite everything that has been sald and written on the subject, many drivers continue to use the. clutch pedal for a footrest. This results in an additional thrust being imposed upon the front or rear thrust surfaces of the crankshaft. Incidentally, it also tends to wear out the clutch throw-out bearing, in itself no small item. According to automotive engineers, more than .006 inch or .008 inch of end- play will be ‘he cause of a perceptible intermittent knock in most engines. The method of correction or adjustment, it is pointed out, will vary with different designs. In some engine designs the thrust is taken by either the front or center bearing end surfaces. In such cases the bushing of that particular bearing must be replaced to correct for excessive shaft end-play. Other engine designs are such that it is not necessary to replace the bushing. In this case a series of removable shims, each of but a few thousandths in thickness may be removed which will permit of the crankshaft thrust surfaces, front and rear, being brought closer together. Each manufacturer has his own ideas on the design of end-thrust de- vices, and for this reason, there are many general adaptations of the two different systems referred to above. The owner shouild be governed ex- plicitly by the manufacturer's recom- mendations in the case of his own Car.

At $735 and up you not only get the brilliant per- formance and reliability of the famous Essex chassis; you also get a satisfaction, in appearance, richness and comfort, never even considered within hun- dreds of dollars of the price. As you lounge in the roomy, high-backed form- fitting seats, every evidence of quality and comfort surrounds you. You have before you every control in their most natural and handy place.

CARMODY Some day, according to well-informed automotive engineering thought, there’s going to be more attention paid to fast acceleration than to high- speed in motor car design. Those who are looking at the future from this perspective see several limitations standing in the way of the top speed development. This fact, in connection with the further fact that practical and safe high speeds are getting closer together for all cars, is going to stimu- late engineering interest in get-away ability, particularly in the case of the more expensive cars. In today’s traf- fic, the make of car does not seem, to many, to count as much as the finesse of the driver. Fine acceleration is present, but everyone has not learned how to use it. >. Wire wheels on the speedway and wire wheels off the speedway look about the same save in respect to the method of attaching them. On the average passenger car, the wire wheel is moored in: the conventional way and around the hub looks almost exactly like either an artillery or disk wheel. Auburn, however, offers an exception to this general rule. The same type of cap that is used on the racing car is employed on the Auburn wire wheel equipped models. At that, it takes more than 10 seconds to change from a flat to a good tire. > > > Evidently inventors are determined that the smoker-driver shall be broken of the habit of extending his arm dis- concertingly over the side of the car to flick the ashes from his cigar or cigar- ette. The accessory market sees a new ash receiver attachable to the stcering wheel, almost every other week. They are popular, too. * Shock absorbers, a field in which there is plenty of competition, might be regarded as produced solely by the manufacturing specialist. They are, save for one exception. Rolls-Royce makes its own. The fact is interest- ing when one recalls that this car came into being because its designer could not find anything that suited his ideas of riding comfort. . 7 . * In fiction, characters sometimes get out of character—the club man drop- ping into the dialect of the ganster, for BASIS FOR OPERATING METHODS ARE-SOUGHT © Data Sought So That Owners of Fleets Can Compare Efficiency.

a ee ee MY MEN STRIVING TOWARD PERFECTION OF AUTO TRANSPORT Rockwell Says Future Wars Will Be Won by Mechan- ized Forces. DECLARES GOVERNMENT MUST SPEND MONEY Holds Private Interests Will Not Improve Giant Cargo Carriers. Constant effort is made by the United States Army to provide better methods of motor transport, according to W. F. Rockwell, writing in Society of Automotive Engineers Journal, who eon out that some military experts lieve that future wars between the great powers will be entirely differ- ent from anything in the past and that wars will be won by the army which employs the greatest number of fast- moving units on land and in the air. The airplane and rapidly moving vehicle, with relatively light gun equipment, very mobile and able to negotiate country without roads, will become the weapons for both defense and offense. “The conventional requirements of passenger cars, motor trucks and trac- tors,” Mr. Rockwell says, “are being commercially improved by private in- terests, and no one desires to see the Army involved in heavy expendi- tures for experimental purposes in these directions. Army Must Spend Money. “The high-speed armored passenger vehicle and the four-wheel-drive and six-wheel cargo-carrying and trailer- hauling vehicles are finding some com- mercial applications, but the Army undoubtedly will have to spend money to develop special cargo carriers to meet extreme conditions. The Ord- mance Department has the most serious problem in the development of light high-speed tractors and the very heavy tank-chassis tractor fov which there is no commercial use and almost no precedent in design, If motor vehicles are provided which can travel at high speed on the roads and still have the ability to traverse off-road areas, motor transport will be much more reliable than rail transport under the same con- ditions of air attack. Interest Is Indicated. “We have nearly every condition of mature in our own country, and the Army should develop vehicles to meet all conditions of temperature, weather and terrain. In connection with this work, it is necessary to develop acces- sories, such as dust filters, exhaust heaters, semipneumatic tires, skid chains, half-track attachments, and #o on. “The War Department has constl- The Old Mechanic Says: Doin’ things half-way is one of the motor car owner’s special weaknesses, and around a repair shop you find a great many illustrations of that fact. The fellow who was just in here started me to thinkin’ of it when he asked me what I thought of his car which has just come out of the paint shop. He's an old friend so I told him the truth even at the risk of makin’ him uncomfortable, Instead of bein’ satis- fied with just a glance at the exterior, which certainly was handsome enough, I looked the car over closely. “Well,” I told him, “that steerin’ wheel, which happens to be made of wood, has the same frowsy look due to its need for varnishin’, The dash board still shows the marks made by the keys scrapin’ over it. “The rubber mat has the same holes in it that have been there for several months. They’re gettin’ bigger every day and showin’ more and more of the floor boards. “That rip in the seam of the front seat upholstery still is there for anyone to see. And, there’s that grease spot on the outside of the door pocket caused by your puttin’ away the pliers without cleanin’ them. The silver platin’ on the. door locks and window controls still has that speckled look where it has worn off. “Those grease stains on the carpet in the rear stand out just as promi- nently as before. “All told, you’ve got a fine lookin’ house filled with rotten furniture merely because you didn’t see the need for orderin’ a complete job, It wouldn't have cost more than a few dollars extra to have the whole thing done right.” When he left after hearin’ my lec- ture, he headed straight for the refin- ishin’ shop from which he had just got the car. tuted force Camp an experimental" of regular Army Meade, Md., for the sum- mer of 1928, under the direc- tion of the commanding = general of the Third Corps Area.

The survey was carried on in cooperation with the American en- gineering standards committee, the Na- tional Conference on Street and High- way Safety. the United States Bureau of Standards, the National Safety Council, the American Association of State Highway Officials and other or- ganizations. Car Needs Thorough Washing. It is paradoxical, but the very ease with which it may be cleaned accounts for the shoddy appearence of the lac- quer finish on some cars, Because a dry, soft cloth often will remove the dirt on the surface, sqgme motorists try to get this result when the finish needs a thorough bath. This Is an- other nonpaying short cut. | |avoid danger from sparks. JULY PINTS MOTOR TOURIST | yy oe In touring the open country it often becomes necessary to ford a small stream, swollen by rains, and unless the motorist has practical knowledge along this line he’ may encounter seri- ous difficulty. Before crossing any water in the path of the road, it is advisable to make a survey of its depth. This may be done by noting where the water strikes the trunks of trees on the side of the road, If there is danger of the water getting into the engine, the following precau- tions should be taken: Stop up the oil filler tube with a cork. (The cork of a thermos bottle useful in this instance.) Detach the ignition coil from its base and tie it up as near the top of the motor as the wires will permit. Close the vent in the carburetor air intake pipe and tie the flexible air pipe above the possible water line. Tie a raincoat over the radiator. Lift the battery up into the car, ground the negative wire to the frame and use the wire from the spotlight to run direct from the positive pole of the battery to the coil, disconnecting the generator alftegether. Since the muffler and exhaust will be under water, detach the flexible heater from the regular exhaust pipe and put it through the hole in the splash pan. Open the heater valve. Attach the chain and put as much weight in the back of the car as possi- ble, and take it slowly in low gear. To do this may require a half hour's time, but it Is preferable to getting stranded in mid-stream. e 7 ° When starting the camp fire, small twigs or shavings should form the basis over which larger pleces should be placed. The fire should be built on the lee side of the car and, if windy, a trench should be dug to Hardwood is more desirable than softwood in thay the former makes good coals. Bolling and stewing should be done in an open flame; frying, baking or roasting on a bed of live coals gath- ered to one side of the fire. In ordér to avoid smarting eyes, burnt fingers and smoky pans, do not attempt to cook over a big smoking fire. It is advisable, when starting the fire, to scrape away dead leaves and mold in order to avoid smouldering after camp is broken. Campers are warned not to kindle fires near dead wood, trees or dead leaves and to be extremely careful in discarding burn- ing matches. Do not leave a big fire burning at night without an attendant. Before leaving camp motorists should thoroughly satisfy themselves that the fire is dead. Drench it with water and cover it with earth to make cer- tain. > > . .

A: lo Spread Touring Helps With touring uppermost in the minds of the thousands of motorists who find in the automobile an oppor- tunity to visit places that otherwise would be virtually inaccessible to them, the District of Columbia Division of the American Automobile Association has adopted a plan of broadcasting by radio suggestions which are designed to aid the motorist to direct his touring to the best advantage. The broadcasting has been in prog- ress for several weeks, tours being out- lined over station WMAL every Friday evening from 9:15 to 9:30 o'clock. This time was chosen so that the motorists might obtain his directions sufficiently in advance so that he then could make his personal plans for his touring over the week-end. Through these suggested motor-trips, the A. A. A. endeavors to serve not only its own membership but the whole body of motorists who are numbered among the listeners-in. The motoring organ- ization proposes that all shall become acquainted with the opportunities which the car owner in Washington and vicinity has for traveling in all direc- tions into territory which is noted for s charming scenery and its wealth of historic associations. Becaue of its broad opportunities for gathering touring information, the mo- tor club is placing its fund of informa- tion at the command of motorists and in doing so is covering a wide range of travel. The tours have been carefully selected by experts in planning motor trips. Every tour has been gone over in person by some one in the A. A. A., who then is in a position to supply complete information as to road condi- tions, the scenery and its attractions, and the many points of historic inter- est which the automobile has made available to its devotees everywhere. The tour broadcast last Friday night was “The Valley of the Kanawha,” out- lining the beauties of West Virginia's choicest scenery. It is planned to take the motorist next Friday night “to the Carillon Bells at Mercersburg,” and tell him of these musical events for which that historic Pennsylvania town has become famous. nel, An indication of the range of the tours is given in a few of the subjects chosen at random. Among the trips to come later are these: “Through the Shenandoah Valley,” “To Modnticello, Home of Jefferson,” “Conowingo and Loch Raven Dams,” “Natural Bridge in Virginia,” “Wakefield, Birthplace of the Father of Our Country;” “The New Vir- ginia Bridges,” and “Along the Eastern Shore.” Many letters have been received at station WMAL, showing that the broad- casts have been favorably received. Nue merous comments also have been re- ceived at the touring bureau of the District of Columbia division of the A. A. A. from motorists who declafed that they awaited the broadcasts with considerable ‘interest. The tours are broadcast by George E. Keniepp, man- ager of the District of Coiumbia divi- sion.

LE AS CE I tt ewe otvevarcats LA) | ATF eesti | wt el AUCTION BRIDGE HERE its one point in bidding which I have tried to explain in my writings, but concerning which I find many Auction Bridge players still are wholly ignorant or in considerable doubt; the point applies equally to Contract Bridge. I refer to the difference that a score makes when overcalling with a Minor sult. Experienced players know that when a suit contract fits the two hands, it is generally easier to make ten tricks (four-odd) with that sult the trump, than it is to make nine tricks (three- odd) at No Trump; an dmore emphat- ically, it is generally easier to make nine tricks at No Trump, than it Is to make eleven tricks (five-odd) with a suit, no matter how well it fits. Consequently when more than one possibility is open at a love score, a Major suit is the first choice, No Trump the second, and a Minor sult the third. But when the bidding side has a score, no matter how small, not more than four-odd tricks are needed with the Minor, which consequently is ex- actly as near game as the Major is at love. For this reason, Minor bids at love score and Minors at an advanced score present two distinct problems, This vital distinction is not gen- erally recognized, and it is my purpose today to call attention to Illustrative hands in which it should be made. AN ORIGINAL BID No. 2 AK Oi Aw aew ois & With No. 1 the sound original bid would be one Spade because, with the defenseless Diamond suit, there is a better chance of making game (four- odd) at Spades, than of making game (three-odd) at No Trump; but with No. 2, at a love score (a hand contain- ing exactly the same high-card strength and the same defenseless suit), the bid would be one No Trump rather than one Club because three-odd would be more probable at No Trump than five-odd at Clubs. Most players would understand and appreciate all this if they were bidding from a zero (love) score; but a score, the Club suit in No. 2 would suppose Dealer No. 2 has a score, will be in the same position as the Spade suit In No. 1; and consequently the open- ing bid should be one Club, not one No Trump. THE NO TRUMP TAKE-OFF. Once again we have to classify play- ers. Many who appreciate the Major- Minor distinction, and the score-or-no- score distinction, as applied to original bids, fail to see its application to take- out. Look at these two hands: “Sit K-32 i AA-08-3 With No. 3 if the partner has bid one No Trump and Second Hand has passed, two Spades should be bid be- cause a Major call over partner’s No —s caserie reper SeVET YET TWA earn mn im ch i Rl 1h Stee em acm TT WITTE we i el A — One low-priced six By MILTON C, WORK Trump shows strength and the No Trumper then is put in the pleasing position of being able to choose be- tween the Major and the No Trump; and knowing that the hand facing him contains a strong five-card Major and probably other assistance for the No Trump, will have no difficulty in mak- ing the winning selection. But with No. 4, at a love score, a bid of two of the Minor would be inadvisable because there is much more probability of game at No Trump; and a Minor two-bid, be- ing a weakness-showing, would warn the partner away from the No Trump. But with any score, the holder of No 4 unquestionably should bid two Clubs because the Clubs then would be like the Major at love (e. g., like the Spades in No. 3), and under such circum- stances it would be a strength-shower and not a weakness-shower. GUARD STOPS CALLES AND WINS PROMOTION Mexican President Felicitates Traffic Officer Who Charged Speeding. Mexico City, July 28 (A.P.).—Presl- dent Calles, threatened with arrest by a traffic policeman for speeding, con- gratulated the officer for his conduct and recommended him for promotion. Not recognizing the chief executive, a motorcycle cop stopped the presi- dential limousine on a highway near the capitol, reprimanded the driver for exceeding the speed limit, and said an- other offense would mean arrest. Then he saw Calles, seemed frighten- ed, began to apologize. The president in- terrupted to praise his action. He said he hadn’t noticed his driver was go- ing so fast, promised it wouldn't occur again, and told the policeman to en- force the law against a president just the same as anybody else. 24-Hour tana ' RIT -!

The principle here ts exactly the same as in the case of an original tid. But with No. 6, the denial at a love score would be one No Trump, not two Clubs, because with two strong Suits and with three cards in the defense- less sult, there would be a much ®et- ter chance for game at No Trump than at the Minor. However, with NO~ 6 and any score toward game, ‘orice again the Minor would be in the same position as the Major at love, should be treated accordingly, and the bid should be two Clubs rather than on No Trump.

Petty, Board Secre- tary, Replies to Suggestion by Taliaferro. PROBLEM IS CONSIDERED _ BY RELIABLE BROKERS Transactions Never Concluded Until Future of Property Has Been Cleared. By MALCOLM G. DOUGLAS, Real Estate Editor. John A. Petty, executive secretary of the Washington Real Estate Board, yes- terday, discussing the question of real estate purchase agreements containing & complete description of zoning con- ditions pertaining to the property sold. as suggested by Commissioner Sidney P. Taliaferro in a statement issued Thursday, pointed out that. perhaps 75 per cent of sales made involves the sale of homes as such, and a universal appli- cation of the suggestion is unnecessary He declared the question of zoning does not enter into a home purchase except in instances where the house 1s close to the border line of a commercial! zone or section. There would remain for consideration of the suggestion, added, practically only deals involving properties zoned for various industrial “4 J ow . c . , - | and business purposes and unimproved |.19 8 land. “In certain residential sections,” said I Mr. Petty, “the sale of ground. for apartment house sites is vitally affected } by zoning because of the restrictions against apartments. improvements are also restricted in cer- tain sections. Zoning in Some Contracts. Zoning Amendment Discus: -n Planned A special meeting of the Zoning Commission will be held tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, to consider a pro- posed amendment to the zoning regula- tions, permitting erection of 130 foot buildings, without set-backs above the 110 foot height, in commercial areas. The commission will also take up the petition of Julius Garfinckel to rezone the northwest corner of Fourteenth and F streets to permit him to erect a large Store building on the site. It was originally proposed to take these two matters up at the monthly hearing last Wednesday, but they were deemed im- portant enough to warrant calling a special me@ting for their consideration.

Such a contract, he said, naturally gives full protection to all parties con- cerned, and there should be no misun- derstanding with such statements in- corporated in the contract, The statements made before hearings of the zoning commission, as suggested by Commissioner Taliaferro are prob- ably “loose expressions,” perhaps used somewhat in the form of an argument to support requests for zoning changes, he stated. Might Void Agreement. “No realtor or any other reputable broker,” the executive secretary con- tinued, “will be a party to a sale contract where the offer was made on the strength of the broker’s statement that the zoning conditions could be changed without there being some qualifying statement in the contract. Any practice or efforts to sell real estate on the basis of contemplated zoning changes, which are not explicit~- ly and properly incorporated in the contract would be tantamount to a misrepresentation, which would be condemned by this board. “Should such instances occur, the way is open for the parties concerned to protect their interest. just as they would from any other misrepresenta- “tion which, if proven, would probably void the contract. “The actual inclusion in all con- tracts for sale of a full statement as to the present zoning conditions af- fecting the property, in addition to being unnecessary in the majority of real estate sales, might cause consider- able litigation by reason of possible errors in stating the zoning conditions. “There is no way to know exactly what existing zoning conditions are except upon inquiry at the District Building or the Real Estate Board, which keeps a record of all changes, and in handling such informal in- ’ quiries, the human element of error enters. Zoning Not Permanent. . “Then again, zoning conditions are not necessarily permanent and a con- tract may be entered into accurately under existing conditions, and within 4° 30 or 60 days, when the final consum- mation of the transaction takes place, it is entirely possible that during the period, a change in zoning has taken place without the knowledge of either the broker or the purchaser. “The onlv safe way to adopt such a lefi in respect to sales contracts would to have the zoning commission issue official certificates certifying as to the present zoning status of a parti- cular property. _ This system would doubtless involve time and expense, which would be rather impractical in connection with tize negotiation and sale of real estate. -.“There has never been a complaint brought to the Washington, Real Estate a, where a purchaser,” Mr. Petty continued, “bought property under -misrepresentation as to zoning condl- tions. This fact, together with the ‘Knowledge that the custom among rep- _ utable brokers is to handle the ques- tion of zoning with the care that its oe .* ince deserves, rather leads me o be e it is umnecessary to advocate ' formal requirement changing our _form of sale contract.” | ever, ary Old Bulldings More Costly. one of the most elab- prepared by the association and covers the detailed expenses of indl- vidual »uildings in the various cities. Although actual experience figures are given for each building, there are no identifying marks of the buildings con- tributing to the report. There is sufficient detail given, how- to enable building managers make direct comparisons between their own operating expenses and those ol the unidentified buildings. One of the striking tabulations is the operating ratio of old and new build- ings and the intermediate classifica- tions. This tabulation reveals the fact that it costs about 20 per cent more to vperate an old building than a new building of corresponding proportions The cost of alterations, remodeling, &c., in the oldest building is 50 per cent higher than in the new buildings The old buildings, however, due largely to their location at the strategic positions in business centers, derive a much higher income from the rental of store space. The report: is Average “Skyscraper” Height. The report reveals the fact that the average American “skyscraper” is 11.5 stories high; that it has a rental area of 105,981 square feet; that it is 17.6 years old, and that it has a tax valua- tion of $10.89 per rentable square foot. Office buildings it. small cities of less than 100,000 population have an advantage over buildings in the larger cities in lower operating expenses, con- struction costs and fixed charges, in- cluding taxes. They have, however, a lower income per square foot. The net income of small cities, on the other hand, compares favorably with the net income of the larger cities on a dollar-for-dollar valuation of land and building. “The information contained in the report aside from its general interest is regarded as the most authoritative index to the efficieacy of office build- ing operation,” said Graham Aldis, of Chicago, chairman of the, accounting and exchange committee. “Building owners and managers are able to make comparative analyses of their own per- formance by means of the report. It is likewise invaluable tc capitalists, pro- moters and investment houses contem- plating new projects inasmuch as the highly competitive character of the office building field and the high cost of building demand the most careful and-conservative scrutiny of *he pros- pects of any contemplated building.” TRADE BOARD STARTS TO BEAUTIFY CAPITAL Sends 1,200 Letters to Citi- zens Asking for Building and Other Designs. More than 1,200 letters were mailed yesterday by the Board of Trade to architects, owners, real estate men and others requesting they submit designs for buildings, treatment of yards and gardens, pent houses, signs attached to buildings and entrance steps for consideration for the biennial awards to be made by the board this year. The designs should be forwarded to the Board of Trade not later than August 1. A jury of three prominent architects is to consider the designs and about twenty medgls will be awarded. The contest is held every two years by the trade organization to stimulate aud encourage a high standard of architec- ture in the National Capital. It is planned, according to Appleton P. Clark, jr., chairman of the commit- tee on municipal art, which is handling the contest, to have the Fine Arts Oom- mission select the most meritorious de- sign, for which a special award will be made. and | compiled yearly | | democratic buildings in 55 of the major cities of | the building | 1924 | Meanwhile operating | | horticultural | to LO | LANDSCAPERS' GOAL O DEOIGNING PARKD TO UPLIFT MASaEo Fine Arts Experts Describes Work of What He Terms Newest Profession.

He plays with water and with it gives freshness and repose, or appeals to the sense of sound. He plays with flowers, with their color and their scent. “Exceedingly varied, if not infinite, are the human emotions upon which he can play. Is there nothing in his treasure chest that could not be shared by other artists? “The sculptor plays with clay and stone and bronze. From them he can give you the realities of life or the idealism of a race, the stern character of a Puritan or the frivolity and grace of a dancer, the harmony of the forms of Phidias, the joys of human happi- ness. His work can be formal, archi- tectural and stately, or picturesque, ro- mantic and playful. “And the painter. Does he not in- terpret the same human emotions and present them to us by other means with equal intensity? Does he not rejoice in happiness or mourn in sorrow? Does he not make us understand human character,. social life, inert or alive na- ture?

IN CORPORATION ROLE Present Executive Committee Will Act as Directors Until October. A charter for the incorporation the Washington Real Estate Board was filed last week with the Recorder of Deeds, it was yesterday announced by John A. Petty, executive secretary. The following members of the board were named as trustees: Thomas E. Jarrell, Lee D. Latimer, Clarence F. Horace G. Smithy, Clarence Worthington, Charles A. Jones, Arthur Carr, Harold E. Doyle, John C. Weedon, Harry L. Rust, Harry K. Boss, Alfred H. Lawson, Arthur C. Charlies 8S. Shreve, William C. Flather, Livingston, Willlam J. Miller, and i+ History of Organization. It was pointed out by Mr. Petty that the original organization known as the | Real Estate Brokers Association of the | District of Columbia was organized as| @ voluntary organization, and in 1919 the name was changed to the Wash- The original character of organization has continued. During these years the organization has grown from purely a mutual the brokers’ assoclation to its present high | standing, serving the real estate pro- fession in much the same manner as the Bar ssociation serves the legal field. Development of Activities. In the progress and development of k addition, 1619 Thirteenth street | the organization, Mr. Petty stated, the! | board has taken on activities of a wide and varied character pertaining to real estate and real estate practice, and for the executive committee, which authorized the incorporation of the organization, felt that it would be in a better position to function as a corporation, rather than a voluntary organization. Most of the real estate boards in the larger cities of the coun- try have gradually changed _ their organizations to corporations. Mr. The present members of the execu- tive -committee will automatically be- come directors of the corporation until the next annual election itn October. The officers and directors are: William C. Miller, president; Ben T. Webster, vice president; Jesse H. Hedges, vice president, Alfred H. Lawson, A. C. Houghton, Claud Livingston, John F. Maury, Horace G. Smithy, Monroe War- ren and Lloyd F. Gaines. FRANKLIN IDEA AIDS REAL ESTATE SALES Practice in Making Decisions as Good Today as When Patriot Lived. An idea of Ben Fran .lin’s is still selling real estate today, A. J. Berge, Sales councilor of the National Associ- ation of Real Estate Boards, told the sales managers’ division at the all-day session at the recent convention ‘in I sulsville, Ky. “What the average man needs is more practice in making- decisions,” Mr. Berge explained. “Ben Franklin used an idea on himself that is Just as gaod today as it was then. When he was up against a difficult decision he made up what I call ‘Ben Franklin’s balance sheet." Taking.a piece of paper and drawing a line down the center, he di- vided it in two halves. At the top of one he put the word ‘yes’ and at the top of the other ‘no.’ Under ‘yes’ he wrote all the reasons why he should take a certain stand, and under ‘no’ ali the reasons why he shouldn’t. Do that for your prospect and his decision automatically becomes made for him. “Most salesmen think closing is the hardest part of making a sale,” con- tinued Mr. Berge. “As a matter of fact it is the easiest. When & salesman can not get his prospect over the dotted line it is because f some mistake he has made earlier in the game.

The province of Alberta in a new town-planning act has authorized a permanent provincial town-planning board, one duty of which shall be to “assist and advise any rural authority in devising ways and means of presgrving the natural | beauty of the locality and insuring that new buildings and erections therein shall be so designed and located as not to mar the amenities of the locality.” It takes definite cognizance of build- ings located on any*highway to which the act applies, making regulations as to their design and construction. California cities are given the power |to control the architecture of private structures planned to be erected in their boundries under the wording of the State’s planning act of 1927, and in some instances they are already ex- ercising such powers, the National As- sociation of Real Estate Boards points out.

IMPORTANT DECISION ON LARKIN ESTATE ALSO citles and rural provinces | 'Both Revise General Under- | Standing as to the Law on | Owned Homes. Purchasers of residential property in- tended to be used as a home are ad- monished by the National Association of Real Estate Boards that there is matter of considerable importance to them in a recent decision of the Su- preme Court of the United States bear- ing on deductibility from income re- turns of income tax deductions in the case Of sales of such property. The association calls the attention of its customers to the fact that the Su- preme Court has decided that whenever residential property is no longer used by its owner for that purpose but in- stead has been turned to rental pur- poses, any loss sustained In a subse- quent sale of the property may be de- ducted by the taxpayer in determin'ng his net income. The decision was brought in a case relating to the sale of the residence of the late Philander C Knox, Secretary of State under Presi- dent Taft. The District Court, for the Western District of New York nas gone a step further and has decided that wherever residential property is abandoned for the owner’s personal use as a dwelling and due diligence is exercised in ef- fort to rent the property any loss‘sus- tained from a subsequent sale of the property may be deducted, whether or not the owner succeeded in renting it. The decision was rendered in the case of the estate of the late John D. Larkin, These decisions revise what until re- cently has been a general understand- ing in regard to the application of the income tax law to Owned homes. What Law Permits. The toric owner is permitted by Federal law to deduct from his income tax return payments made for interest or taxes on his home. But on the other hand the income tax law does not permit him to treat his residence property as if it were property from which he expected to make an income or which he had -purchased to hold for resale at a profit. It has been the general understanding that in deter- mining the amount of ‘is net income he could not deduct any loss sustained from the sale of residential property. In view of the Supreme Court action the national association points out to purchasers of real estate for residential purposes the advisability that they have in mind the probable further en- hancement in value of it and a sale of it at a profit, and advises further that the purchaser be able to show that he had this in mind. The purchaser of a dwelling for resi- dential purposes ~‘sually does not over- look the fact that the exchange value of his property may increase or dimin- ish. This the Supreme Court recog- hizes in its recently expressed opinion. Whether the taxpayer who buys property for residence purposes but who at the same time has an eye to possible increase in value may if he sells at a loss deduct as he would in the case of sale of income producing property is left as an open question by the Supreme Court opinion. The question is an important point for real estate, inasmuch as in many instances, perhaps in most instances, the realtor handling the property can show that the purchaser of residential property had in mind not only the use of it for residential purposes but also the probability of its increasing in value, Law of 1918 Provisions. The revenue act of 1918 permitted deduction by a taxpayer in determin- ing his net income for losses sustained during the taxable year if incurred “in any transaction entered into for profit” even though not connected with his trade or business. The Treasury regulations promul- gated in 1919 as amended in 1921 pro- vided that a loss in the sale of residene tial property is not deductible unless the property was purchased or con- structed with a view to subsequent sale for pecuniary profit. The law and the regulations in this respect remained unchanged under the revenue acts of 1921, 1924, and 1926. In the case of the Knox property the court found that the residential use of the property came to an end when it was leased, and that thereafter it was a property devoted exclusively to the pro- duction of profit in the form of rentals. The opinion also states that the words “any transactions” are not “a technical phrase or one of art. They must, therefore, be taken in their usual sense, and so taken, they ‘are, we think, broad enough to embrace at least any action or business operation * * ® by which property previously acquired is devoted exclusively to the production of taxable income.” Accordingly, notwithstanding the fact that a given ptoperty is acquired for residential purposes, if at any time after its purchase the residential pur- pose is given up and the property is devoted to the production of income in- stead, any loss sustained from the sale of the property thereafter may be ce- ducted from the amount of income on which taxes are paid. The decision of the Supreme Court in regard to the Knox property shows clearly that if the owner sells his resi- dential property while he is occupying it as a residence, he may not deduct any loss *e may sustain in the sale of it. Under the late decision in the district court, if due diligence is exercised in the effort to rent the property the loss sustained from the sale may be de- ducted. ig

One of the principal measures adopted by the government to fight the coercive denationalization of Italien @migrants consists in discouraging and opposing the emigration to the neigh- boring republic. The result has been that, while in 1934 the Italians who went to France numbered 301,715, now they are reduced by more than 50 per cent.

The musician has declared he is go- ing to induce the world to accept his “thirteenth sound” or go broke in the attempt. Possessed of a modest personal for- tune in Mexican property, he has re- turned to his homeland, after three years in New York and Havana working on his “thirteenth sound,” with the announced intention of converting everything he owns here into cash, re- turning with his money to New York and Furope, and spending his last pen- ny, if necessary, in producing and se- “thirteen sounds.” Carrillo divides the octave into thir- teen tones instead of the conventional of the Far East and of Indian and African tribes. His idea the reconstruction of the piano and of orchestras and rewriting of music. He expects his “thirteenth sound” to revolutionize the world’s music. He thinks it will be to music what the printing press was to literature, steam to industry, gunpowder to war. Carrillo was some years ago Mexico City’s favorite orchestra conductor. In 1925 he announced he had arranged music with a “thirteenth 4ound,.” Mexico did not grow enthusiastic over it. He went to Havana and New York, and his music has been heard in both cities. Upon his recent return to Mexico he gave an interview at Vera Cruz deplor- ing the indifference of his countrymen to what he called “the musical lution.” “My thirteenth sound will the music of the world one of days, whether I live to know it or not.” these curing the production of music with twelve used in most music except that necessitates some other instruments, rearrangement , ’ : .

THRONE RIGHT INVOLVED Budapest, July 28 (A.P.).—Hungarian government officials are facing with anxiety the prospect of a constitutional crisis and serious friction with the Vatican in the event that the Cardl- nal Primate of Hungary dies. A maelstrom of controversy enters around the question of succession to the Hungarian throne, and officials are’ determined to avoid a repetition of events which followed the death of Cardinal Primate Czernoch last year. Under the constitution the king Is the advowson of the country and it falls upon him to nominate a suc- cessor to the vacant throne of Ester- gom. The regent and the government were in a predicament until the Pope stepped in to avert a constitutional crisis. We took the unprecedented step of appointing a successor. The government resented the action of the Pope, but the nominee, Cardi- nal Seredi, being persona gratissima to the government, the regent was ad- vised to lay hia seal of approval. This incident has given a fresh tm- — to the Legitimists, who are leav- ng nothing undone to bring to a head the question of the vacant throne of St. Stephen. The Pope's action may not be accepted another time, the cor- respondent learns, and while Cardinal] Seredi is young, no efforts will be spared to solve the dormant problem of the restoration of the monarchy in the lifetime of Hungary's supreme re- ligious chief. Crown Prince Otto is the acknowl- edged candidate for the throne. The government officially has no favorite, but ts not disinclined to accept Otto. |Magnet Outweighs Largest Locomotive | Bellevue, Prance.

Each player adopts a special mark, a circle, a cross, a star, or a check. The object is for each player to get five of his marks in a row, up and down, across or diagonally. Each plays in turn and tries to block the others from getting five in a row. Marks may be put anywhere on the board. Tissue Paper Race—Each player cuts & square of tissue paper and puts upon it some initial or mark by which it may be identified. Four inches is a g00d-sized square. At one end of the room two book ends are set up about a foot apart. A two-foot space is good for the first game. At the other end of the room the players are lined up armed with fans. When the word “go” is given, each starts to fan his square the length of the room and through the goal posts. The first to waft his paper through the goal posts wins. P.-T. A. Textbook.

The appointment was made by Mrs. S. M. N. Marrs, national president. National Convention. Mrs. Carl Smith, chairman of recrea- tion for the District of Columbia Con- gress of Parents and Teachers, reported to that body:on the national conven- tion in Cleveland, as follows: “The date Dr. Bird T. Baldwin, of lowa, summed up the 1928 convention of parent-teacher associations in these few Words: ‘Beyond a doubt it is the most far-reaching and important meet- =; of any like affair that we have ever fiducted. It would take me hours to explain its true worth and the influ- ence it will have on present and future America.’ Dr, Frank Cnane, writing edl- torially in a Chicago paper early in con- yention week, declared: ‘One of the most intelligent and common sense movements that has ever been formed is the «organization of the Parent- Teacher Association. It has become a country-wide movement and has every- where engaged the championship of the best minds.’ 4. give this to you because I want to’ fmphasize the fact that the Par- Smt-Teacher Association is not a mothers’ club, as many still insist Niponh calling it. It is not only a great nation-wide forward educational move- ment, since 24 countries are now merged into an international organi- ation, demanding the best thought éf the wisest minds of all those great nations. * “I have come back from this great Feonclave more fully convinced than Sever (for I have long since been con- that recreation is the big- : i inced), _ tgest and most important of the newly ~ ound and undeveloped ideas. “Recreation in its entirety covers ‘guch a large field that I can touch énly the more important phases. usic, which is such an important actor in recreation, I will not touch as it will be covered by another ‘member of the delegation. *» “There stood out paramount all tthrough the convention the big idea of téducation for leisure, wise provision : or leisure hours, the question of what fare you doing with your leisure time, ‘and of what is your boy or girl doing ith those hours not required for ‘school work. 1¢ “Here let me inject a few facts.

How wisely are these free’ hours pro- How much of that time ‘is taken up by commercial recreation, t should be? It is our responsibility see that it is, for as one speaker id, ‘Every time a boy goes wrong a man dies.’ Another said in tressing the need of playgrounds and recreation, ‘Every one has responsi- fies for public standards in his city, his State and his Nation, and my ild is not safe until every child is _per cent of our criminals today in penal institutions are under 21 yrars age, witli the greatest criminal age d at. 17 to 21, and growing with 13,000 suicides last year P.

We are spending $3,000,000,000 a year to pun- ish these youths, and only two million f- recreation in an effort to stop crime. It is a serious indictment. ‘ “In our great industrial cities they forget how to play, yet the playground is where children learn to play the game of life fairly. ‘All the wars Eng- land ever fought have been won on the laygrounds at Eton and Oxford,’ one speaker declared, while another asked for a reductior of the war budget’ and | an increase of the recreation budget as a peace measure. “Recreation also has a great spiritual value; when we are given something to do together we understand each other |} and acquire a better sense of values, | and this is where recreation has its great value, for when we have played our you, | together a few moments we have social- | | ized our group and are ready for united | Gown Only | action. And we must play more. a few days ago a noted scientist made this statement, that | we lost our sense of humor and did not have any fun in our lives, we would become insane. “We are driving too hard in America, we must relax. Education for life means education for leisure. Leisure time is when a man can do the finer things in life. This brings to my mind what one speaker told of the reaction of children to art. The ‘Angelus,’ that beautiful and well-known picture was being studied, and a little colored boy, after studying it intently for some time looked up and said, ‘Why, it is a pic- ture with God in it,’ while an adoles- cent youth was heard to say to his companion, ‘Oh, come on, Bill, they are digging potatoes.’ We need a truer sense of real values. “From the lips of another speaker |} came this, ‘The young are fortunate, | they will see many things; it remains for us to keep the way straight for them.’ In an effort to escape the un- pleasant things of life, youth looks for quick escape, and it comes through gambling, lottery, betting, excessive love making and speea; and -he finds menace along the roads. Weapons are eing sought with which to clean up he amusements around small towns and quiet villages where officials license these places and then fail to keep them clean A matron has been suggested for such places of commercial recrea- tion, and Wisconsin has such a law, also a man where cars are parked. In almost every instance the speakers have said just what I have said to you many times, it is the automobile that has brought such great change in condi- tions, and commercial entertainment, making a‘definite recreational program necessary. “Now because I do not believe any one else is covering moving pictures and it was my privilege to attend some of the round tables dealing with the subjéct, and because it is about the greatest of our commercialized recren- tions, I want to say just a few words and state a few facts. “New Jersey has been the first of the States to make a survey of the moving picture situation, and has done outstanding work. I believe it would be a good idea for our chairman to secure a copy of its plan and accom- plishments. 1t suggests Friday night as family night and stresses the impor- tance of making the child realize that the show after all is only a sham, a form of amusement. “Two Los Angeles physicians claim the emotional strain of the moving picture on the child is injurious, and they should know, since 60,000 children under 12 years of age attend movies there each week, while 23 per cent under 8 years and over 14 per cent under 12 years js the country-wide estimate. “Movies are here to stay, but should be made to conform to home stand- ards and good taste, since the child is in more danger from bad taste ac- quired in the movies than from the thrill he* gets out of them. Children become immune to shock from seeing so mach vaudeville in the movie houses, ite is claimed, and Chicago just now Is excited over so many young children in vaudeville, and are trying to secure some action that will keep them off the stage until they are 16. Sixty-six young children are in the movies in Hollywood. One speaker stated that the cruelty on the American stage was a great sgock to Europeans; that the home must overcome the falsities that are presented as the truth to children; that we must keep youth out of doors; that they do not need the movies, but they do need some time to be alwune} with the stars. Children are being | made old before they have had any | childhood. One doctor declared when | she said to a group of young school- | girls that they looked old and tired, | they begged her to tell the schools | they were tired and worn with the pro- gram of today, and she regretted the | schools haven't the health level of the | child. In Chicago there are 310 schools | and 350 theaters. They are both adult responsibilities. Are we going to dodge that responsibility, or insist our com- merclialized recreation be raised to the proper standard? Recreation has thrown | its challenge to us; may we recognize its importance and respond.” At New York Camp.

P. sha - Na tional Holiday Decree Is Opposed by Bavarians Seen as an Invasion of Sovereign Rights of the Former Kingdom. ' (Special Cable Dispatch.) Berlin, July 28.—Is Germany yet a nation in the completer sense in which the leaders of the revolution and the framers of the Weimar constitution sought to make it one? That question frequently intrudes into German poli- tics. Bavaria certainly is not fully reconciled to the constitution, whicn deprived it of many of the privileges which it had enjoyed as an autonomous kingdom within the empire. Bavaria’s resentment cropped out re- cently in the vote of the reichstag— the upper legislative body representing the states—on the proposal to declare August 11 a national holiday, to be known as constitution day. The pro- posal -had been under discussion for a long time and had been complicated by a serious difference of opinion as to whether the institution of such a national] holiday was or was not, in effect, an amendmen: to the constitu- tion and required, or did not requlre, a two-thirds vote for passage. Last year the reichsrat decided that it did. But the reichstag held that it did not. The point mainly in dispute at the recent session of the reichsrat was whether the central government could require all the communities in the reich to decorate their public build- ings with flags in honor of constitu- tion day and also require appropriate celebration of it in the public schools. «The vote was 47 for the holiday and 19 against it, with two states refrain- ing from voting. In the opposition were Bavaria, Wurtemburg and the Prussian provinces of East Prussia, Bradenburg, Pomerania and _ lower Silesia. Bavaria and Wurtemburg are strongly for state rights; the four Prus- sian provinces were probably influenced | by NationaHst party feeling against the |! Republican constitution. Upper Silesia and Oldenburg declined to vote. The position of the opposition was | stated by one of the representatives of the Bavarian government, Dr. von Preger. He said that his government could not admit that the constitution permitted the designation of August 11 as a universal holiday. Federal law would thus overrule state law. Bavaria considercd the details of the act as an invasion of state sovereignty. It could find no warrant in the constitution for compelling all communities to decorate their public buildings with flags and to hold celebrations in the schools. It could see no occasion for the reich to issue such instwuctions, which would infringe the freedom of action and local regulation possessed by every state. | The Prussian government fathered the constitution day proposal, which had been indorsed by the committee of fourteen states. In so far, therefore, as the confilct over honoring the con- stitution involved a test between naturalistic sentiment, on the one hand, and particularly an anticonstitu- tion sentiment on the other, national- ism scored a victory, coinciding with the recent victory of republicanism at the polls over the antirepublican elements. The question whether Whe holiday law, in fact, amended the constitution and therefore required a _ two-thirds majority was also settled. The vote that it did was 52, against 11, that it did, Bavaria alone supporting the latter, Wurtemburg, with four contention votes, and Oldenburg, with one vote, were not recorded. Texans Believe Police In Court, Judge Says New York, July 28 (A.P.).—Federal Judge William H. Atwell, of Dallas, who is sitting here, notes a difference be- tween "New York and his home State, “Down in Texas,” he remarked in court, are accepted as the truth, and this is testimony of the police ignored.” The remark was occasioned by the ac- quittal of a man accused of operating a still. In another case the judge imposed the maximum penalty, a fine of $500, for possession of a quart of whisky.

I had no preconceived notions about the place, but I know now that I could spend many profitable and happy vacations here. I began forming pleas- ing impressions as soon as I came through the gate. “Finding a place to live was not diffi- cult. Within an hour after we got off the boat sultcases were unpacked and we felt at home in our little attic apart- ment, consisting of two rooms and two porches. I am very fond of the place, as it is just like living among the trees, as the branches of big trees overhang both porches. From the front porch we look down into a ravine spanned by a rustic bridge, under which runs a Stream. Here the children play at all times, wading or building dams or sail- ing boats. “The provision that is made for chil- dren of all ages to be occupied in a constructive way while the lectures are going on will interest parents. There is a kindergarten and a school for chil- dren up to and including the fourth grade. There are clubs for boys and girls from the ages of 9 to 15 and from 15 to 18.. The fee for this is $15. The instruction in these clubs consists of boating lessons, swimming lessons, box- ing, baseball and manual training. My own boy is most happy in his activities in the boys’ club. | “The social hygiene work consists ot two main courses, two lecture discus- sion series and of public forum lectures The first two are intensive study course: for which credits are "iven by New York University. “One is called ‘Sex and Education.’ education and education on sex.

Of the eighteen States which have appointed assistants at the request of the national chair- man, the District of Columbia shows the largest number of local chairmen. The report also shows that during the period from April 1 to June 30, 89 subscriptions were received from the District of Columbia. Singing Mothers. The national» chairman of music, Mrs. M. W. Ross, is urging the develop- ment of “Singing Mothers” at local Parent-Teacher meetings so that dis- trict, State and national conventions may be enlivened and inspired by good singing. The National Song Sheet will be sent from the national office, 1201 Sixteenth street northwest, to any as- sociation upon application. Such songs as “America the Beautiful,” “My Tribute,” “P.-T. A. Song,” and “Our Battle Hymn for Children,” should be in the repertory of every P.-T. A. mem- ber. Trios and quartettes can be form- ed in any group where good voices are available and their singing adds great- ly to the programs of each meeting. Singing mothers make singing chil- dren, and every bit of interest in music shown by P.-T. A. brings us nearer to our ideal for children. Apply for in- formation to Mrs. Eppa L.

HE RAU ORGANIZATION has been formed for the purpose of establishing here an enterprise known as THE WASH- INGTON BUILDING MATERIAL DISPLAY CORPORATION with a suitable building for the concentrated display of products used in the construction, equipping and decorating of build- ings of every description. Its purpose is to enable architects and contractors to inspect and select their supplies without the usual “shopping around.” Such enterprises have proven extremely profit- able in other cities and the RAU ORGANIZATION feels that the time is ripe for an establishment of this kind in Washington. We could sell stock to finance this undertaking but experience teaches us that we must sacrifice at least 40 per cent of the amount realized to cover the cost of disposing of the stock. Confronted with this problem, we have evolved a plan which we believe is the best of its kind and which is NEW TO WASHINGTON: Briefly Our Plan Is This: Instead of giving you an opportunity to buy stock in this enterprise we offer an investment in the most tangible security in the world, which is land, and combine it with one of the most attractive speculative possibilities ever offered to. the public. We have obtained two tracts of land, adjacent to the Capital. Both are located in Maryland and both, in our estimation, offer splendid values for the money at present and prospects for a steady enhancement. All lots in each division sell for the same price, so that the first purchasers have FIRST PICK OF LOCATION. Lots in one tract, known as Strawn’s Addition to Ardmore, located about ten miles east of the White House on the W. B. and A. Railroad, will sell for $275 each. Lots in the other tract, known :as Massachusetts Avenue Highlands, in the Bradley Hills section, which is bounded on one side by River Road and on the other by Massachusetts Avenue Extension, will sell for $400 each. With each lot in either tract YOU GET: 1. A clear title to it from one of the Maryland Title companies. 2. A profit-sharing certificate entitling you to share in the profits of the RAU ORGANIZATION until the full purchase price of the lot has been turned back to you. Early purchasers will also receive four shares of preferred stock in the Washington Building Ma- terial Display Corporation, with a par value of $25 a share. In addition, the RAU ORGANIZATION will set aside an amount equal to that paid on the profit- sharing certificates for improvements on the two tracts of land mentioned. In other words, the money obtained from the sale of the lots in both subdivisions will be used to finance the Washington Building Display Corporation in the profits of which you will share up to the full amount of your investment and continue to share in those profits if you are one of the fortunate early purchasers to secure a portion of the preferred stock. You also share, to an amount equal to your investment, in the profits spent for improviny the property. You Take No Risk There is absolutely no risk in an investment of this kind as there always is in the purchase of stock. If the enterprise fails to show a profit, which is very unlikely, judging by the success in other cities, you lose nothing, as you will have a valuable piece of property which will continue to increase in value every year. Such an investment proposition is worth considering. Come in and talk the matter over with us and let us give you a more complete outline of our plan and prospects which lack of space prevents us from doing here. Don’t delay, or you may miss a rare opportunity. The Rau Organization 510-511 Albee Building - | oe SS a as | ~ i

A PRIL’S secoud picture showed a the first, proving to the business heads of the film world that she was menting twice on he: acting to once on her unsavory reputation. Those ten- nifico should feature a woman merely because she had been involved in company for its perspicacity in captur- ing her talent for tne screen. in casting about for possibilities for their next superfeature, decided to the story about her an unusual com- pliment in the sereen world except where the stars were their own pro-, ducers, The last superfeature had $1,000,000. This one was to cost $2,000,- 000 and be, therefore, twice as good. These little deta'tis were settled be- fore any thought was given to the na- ture of the picture. Then Jansen discovered who was considered the leading novelist of the day and signed him up at $50,000 to produce a plot. The novelist came on to Hollywood with much blare of trum- pets while the staff hurried up the important preliininaries so that they job of deciding what the story should be about At last, when the novelist had been California for a happy three weeks and had been conveying gracious impressions of the screen world to the reporters who questioned him about it, they were ready for his part. Ana Jan- scn, April, DeLain Thomas, the novel- ist, and the head scenario man were gathered in Jansen’s luxurious office tO Map out the story. April had asked Thomas previously wh at his ideas were for the picture. “I have a very definite story I'd like you to do, but never for Jansen,” he answered. “My pileture would only appeal to about a thousand idea for a | people in the world who know the best when fire us 1 to they see it, both when yell. say ’* He was as and Jansen would the distributors be- So at present I fave noth- iz to good as his conference, lounging back in his chatr, picture of when he was working.

He was newly promoted and this was his first important conference. Jansen went on, encouraged by this approbation. “So all we have to do is to get some really good idea, with a twist to it, and give it to Mr.— be nameless for kindness’ sake) “But 1 thought—” the novelist be- | gan on, not him. had my secretary superpictures up were about. I! higtory, 1; Revolutionary War, World War, 1 just about finishes up the wars,” he commented, regretfully “At least, all 1 ever heard of, and it’s no use going into any second-class wars. But never,” he said impressively, “have we built a superpicture around a woman, and | thought there ought to be a big helpful suggestion in that.” “TI had in mind—” said the novelist. “Now. I'm not much = on history,” Jansen boasted, “I’m just a business man, and I'll leave the little details to the rest of you But I wanted you to get it straight that this picture must pe a knock-out story about a woman.” The novelist drew a sheaf of papers out of a brief case he had been hugging and this time managed to capture the floor “I have jotted down some sugges- tions.” he said determinedly, “and sup- pose I go over them before We go any farther.” “That isn’t the way we work in the films,” Jansen informed him patroniz- ingly “We figure -evelal heads are better than one on these big super- productions, till we get the idea, any- way. Then it's your job to write the story after we get the idea. Of couse.’ he added magnanimously, “it may Just as easily be your idea as anybody's, but we don’t care about the credit. What we want is a smashing, knockout idea.” He paused and the novelist, flushing, said nothing. “There ought to be something in these Paris divorces,” the scenario writer offered hopefully. “That would give a chance for lots of Paris atmos- phere, Montmartre and all that. The doings of the idle rich—” “We had a big divorce in “The Wom- an of Bronze,” Jansen objected. “We want to get away from all that old stuff. Something new like—well, say, how about a smashing big picture of mother love?” The novelist squirmed and April could feel DeLain Thomas’ amuse- ment. She felt it was time for ker to come to the rescue. “Oh, Mr. Jansen,” Jansen went heeding make a list to date and find, French War, 1; Civil I guess that of our she said, “that’s a wonderful idea. But I’m afraid I wouldn’t be equal to it. Perhaps when [ am older and have had more experi- ence—” Jansen recognized the validity of her contention and silence fell while the head scenario writer almost visibly searched hi: brain for the smashing idea. The novelist then, with the air of one who would not be downed, gave a suggestion from his sheaf, which was cast out as not being si fficiently dra- matic for a $2,000,000 picture. April felt a rising desire to laugh as suggestion after suggestion was made. each more banal than the last. For this sort of thing they were: going to spend $2,000,000. And to see it the public would pay many millions more —or so every one hoped. At last April was moved to ironic outburst. “There have been films of various bad women in the world’s history.” she said softly, “but ‘1 don’t believe there has ever been one of all the most fam- ous bad women.’ Jansen, listening with a deference that had been considerably heightened since Narya had become a best seller, racked his memory and could think of none. “Well, suppose we start with Jezebel and tell her story,” April went on “What did she do?” Nobody could re- member. “Oh, it doesn’t matter. We can find out later. Anyway, she was biblical. and gives us a chance for the Old Testament scenes and costum-s. ‘ana we can call the picture something cost | } Thomas, like, let's see, Ages?’ ”’ She was leaning forward, speaking with delicate irony and Thomas, the only one who understod her purpose, was watching her appreciatively. “Then we can go on down through history, pretending that the epirit of Jezebel lives on in the great bad wom- en of history. Cleopatra—that gives us a chance to do the Marc Antony story and have Egyptian scenes. Semi- ramis—was she Babylonian? Anyway, another set of scene~ and _ “*revels Catherine the Great of Russia—Rus- sian things. “That gives us lots of leeway, and the debauchery of the Russian court. Ninon d’Enclis—that gives us France, and a lot of prominent men Who were her lovers. Lady Hamilton for England —she was Lord Nelson’s mistress, you know. And that gives us all the wick- edness of the English court. “And then, when we come down to modern times, we have the bronze girl, the modern incarnation of all the bad women of history, wrecking homes and lives—” She paused, hoping she had shown them by her burlesque the folly of the method they were pursuing. But Jansen leaped up tn excitement. “That’s it! Wonderful. Marvelous It'll be the biggest story ever ahaned, Think of the scenes we can .ave, the finest ones tn every country Think of the costumes! My lord, it’s so big it’s going to take us a while to realize how big it is.” He turned to the unhappy novelist “There's your story. Now go to it!” “Tl understood,” the novelist returned with dignity, “when I undertook this contract that I was being retained to furnish the story for this picture. I didn’t understand that—” “What are you bellyaching about?” Jansen broke in rudely. Stars had to be kept happy, but a mere author—all they needed of an author was his name, they expected to furnish the really good ideas themselves. “We're making your work easier for you, ain't we? And we pay you your $50,000 just the same.” One could endure much for $50,000. April, feeling for the author, whom she had found interesting, if slightly inflated by his success, saw him fight- ing the same battle she had fought once, and deciding it the same way. Was there anything in the world Mag- nifico could not buy with its millilons— ami then deface, because it had paid? April thought of the weeks and months that would be spent on this picture to make its details accurate— experts searching volumes to make sure of the tiniest point about the costumes, other experts consulted to make sure that the settings were right, whole scenes discarded because some one would discover an ananchronism in them—and all this careful work on a story that was flung together like the costume of a ham actor April was overwhelmed by the arti- ficiality of it, but temporarily she was too stunned to speak.: Besides, she felt that she had said too much already. She turned to DeLain Thomas, whom she had come to regard as her port in time of ‘storm. how about ‘Jezebel of the She was leaning forward, speaking with delicate irony and the only one who understood her purpose, was watching her appreciatively. “Isn't theré any way to stop it?” she whispered. “I’m afraid not. Of course, from the Jansen standpoint, it is a whopping idea. And probably it’s better than what they would have decided on if you had kept still. I can see lots of possibilities in it myself. And you wouldn't get any more of a hearing than that novelist did if you tried to change it now.” The studio staff was turned loose on the costumes and the settings. The novelist worked painstakingly at his story only to have it discardea and a new one built by the scenario depart- ment—but his name went on the film and he bought a country home with the $50,000. And Morris Golden waa struck witl a brilliant idea for the incidental music, This feature. heretofore cidental, had of late been assuming great importance. The name of a well Known musician had become almost as necessary to a film as the name of @ well Known author, though the part of Ohne might not tin reality be greater than the part of the other. So Morris called their attention to Gerard Wellman, the latest sensation in the music world. This Wellman, he pointed out at one of their conferences, was the latest thing in music. He had come to success through a weird sym- phony, which opened up a new field in music. Then he had composed an opera which was voted the best ever done by an American, and which had drawn great crowds and enthusiastic press notices. Moreover, this Wellman was noted for being unusually decorous in his private life. Although he lived in that famous section of New York which opens upon Washington Square, he never took part in its sensational doings, and this favt had often been commented upon by the papers. So this would give them a double chance—the fashionable musician of the hour, who would give them the new eflects they were anxious to have, and a Galahad, for contrast to their star. What could be sweeter? Jansen promptly approved the ides and the New York office was wired to get in touch with “this Wellman” im- mediately and sign him up. Jansen in- dicated that he would match the §$50,- 000 he had paid for a novelist if neces- sary. April felt a little sting at the harping on the personal side of the matter of the musician.

Canton, July 28 (A.¥.).—Bias Bay pirates and Canton gun-runners are laughing up their wide sleeves at the British navy, following the theft in Honkong of a machine gun from the deck of the Britisn destroyer Sepoy by harbor thieves. The British destroyer lay at anchor in her usual berth off the navy yard when a refuse junk pulled alongside, presumably to collect ashes from the warship. Two hours afte’ the junk had cast off from the Sepoy, the watch dis- covered. that a machine gun, mounted and clamped to the decks as a part of her armament, was missing, How Chinese coolies were able to board a British warship and dismount and remove a machine gun without at- tracting the attention of the watch on the vessel would make interesting read- irg, but the British naval board of in- quiry will not make public its find- ings. The Hongkong land and water police were notified of the theft, but no trace of the missing gun has been found. FOLLOWERS TO HONOR ORIGINAL OSTEOPATH Dr. Still, First to Use System, Born in Jonesville, Va., 100 Years Ago. Jonesville, Va., July 28 (A.P.).—Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, born in this little village 100 years ago, is to be honored as the founder of osteopathy on the anniversary of his birth, August 6, by the American Osteopathic Association meeting in Kirksville, Mo. The ancient log cabin in which Dr Still was born has been removed to {Kirksville for the centennial ‘celebra- tion. Thé cabin was purchased by Dr. George Laughlin as a permanent me- morial to the founder and the removal was begun two years ago in order to be compieted by the 100th anniversary. Dr. Laughlin, now connected with the osteopatnic school at Kirksville, is a son-in-law of Dr, Still. Dr. Still began the practice of osteop- athy in 1874 and established the first school for its study at meee in 1892. COURT RULES AUTHORS CAN HAVE NO PRIVACY Dismisses French Libel Suit Based on Revelations on 5 . George Sand’s Life. Paris, July 28 (A.P.).—The life and reputation of France’s greatest woman novelist, George Sand, are public prop- erty. declared the French courts in re- jecting a libel suit brought by Mme. Lauth-Sand, the author’s granddaugh- ter. The action charged Jacques Bou- langer, prominent critic, with defama- tion of George Sand’s memory in a recently published article. The court’s ruling said, in effect, that even the personal details of a famous writer’s life became a part of literary history at death. Mme. Lauth-Sand cited as Lbelous a phrase saying that George Sand “changed her lovers as she would her clothing.” No trial in recent years has attracted the attention of the French literary world to such a degree. The whole question of good manners among writers hung in the balance. Boulanger’s defense was to claim that he had used only facic known to eve one and which George Sand herself had frankly acknowledged. With these as a basis, he said, he had formed the logical conclusion that she was. & “woman of unusuammorals.” Motorists Shocked In Holland Tunnel. New York, J ‘y 28 (A.P.).—There have been shocking conditions in the Holland Tunnel, a vehicular tube be- neath the Hudson between New York and New Jersey. Collectors of tolls and motorists have been holding hands painfully. Static electricity is gener- ated by cars shooting downhill to the tunnel entrance. As a remedy collec- tors are to stand on rubber mats.

LEGISLATORS DISLIKE FORCED ELIMINATION Compensation Would Be*Given Officers Separated to Allow Promotions. It is certain that there will be re- mewal at the next session of Congress of the discussion of separations from the Army of offices to the extent con- sidered necessary io provide a reason- able flow of promotion beyond that afforded by the usunl attrition. In the representations that are be- ing made to the War Department in expectation of further comment from that quarter for the information of the congressional military committees with consideration of Army promotion legislation, it is being urged that there be some definite. method by which officers may be separated from the service. There is an increas- ing belief in the service that the War Department should be in readiness by next December to submit to Congress @ plan that shall unite the conflicting ‘ Views of the several groups of officers. t 4 v The situation presents many diffi- culties, judging from the revelations at the last session of Congress. It is foreseen that the next session, of brief duration, affords sant, opportunity for action, since the antagonistic elements that distinguished the situation at the end of the last session hold no prospect of reconciliation. Creation of Vacancies. There is one factor upon which there May be agreement, and this promises to be in the direction of creating va- Cancies as an aid to promotion through elimination. This effort was blocked at the last session when the Bureau of the Budget ruled against the pay- ment by the Government of sizable atuities to those that would volun- arily leave the Acmy. There is, more- over, a decided sentiment in Congress against any legislatiou that shall re- quire elimination in any degree com- pulsory. The situation therefore, re- solves itself into providing for separa- tion that shall be exclusively voluntary and that shall be accompanied also by @ reasonable separation compensation. It has been estimated that separat- ing, for example, i175 officers, now in the so-called World War hump, from the Army yearly over a period of seven- teen years would cost a total of about $50,000,000, provided all officers ac- cepted the separation allowance and none of them the retirement feature. It is stated that this amount of sep- aration allowance, plus the cost of vol- untary retirement, would be, in the long run, considerably less than the cost to the Government of carrying all of those officers through all the years of their service on the retired list, if they should all retire under the pro- visions of existing law. It is urged that this method of reducing the hump 1s fair to the Army because it is wholly voluntary on the part of the officer that accepts it; it is liberal to the of- ficer from the standpoint of compen- sation; it is a recognition of his service to the Government, and it is econom- ical from the standpoint of the Gov- ernment itself. Method of Retirement. With reference to the Army person- nel situation in general, there are evi- dences of attack, in future discussions of Army promotion problems in Con- gress, on the method of retirement and discharge of officers as a result of as- signment to Class B as less fit than others to remain on the’ active list. That annual process of elimination has been assailed in numerous quarters. It nhow has been brought again to the at- tention of the War Department in a series of reports that deal with the problem of attrition to increase the advancement of the commissioned per- sonnel. The classification of officers on the basis.of relative usefulness or efficiency has been found to be a dif- ficult task. Seven years of experience with the Class B system has been very far from defining satisfactory standards or in developing a method of procedure in which the Army has confidence. There is a wide difference of opinion among officers as to what constitutes personal and professional attributes that Justify retention in the service, with the ex- pulsion of chose that’ do not measure up to the adopted standard. It is felt, too, that the Class B law invaded the field of discipline and proper conduct, which already was covered satisfac- torily in a manner that safeguarded the rights of both the individual and the Government and was accepted by serv- ice opinion. To this extent it is claimed that the Class B law, as construed by some com- manding officers, has served to relieve them of their proper functions—the development of a high state of disci- pline in their commands—and to pass the responsibility to a board in the War Department. The law further is accused of lowering the morale of the Army by creating the impression that an officer can be “tried” under the Class B system, instead of under the well-recognized and accepted courts- martial procedure. South American Trip By Huge U.S. Fleet Following announcement that all elements of the United States fleet, ex- cept the submarine divisions, would cruise along the west coast of South America during part of the first three months of 1929, attention now is being given in the Navy Department to prep- aration of a schedule of dates of ar- rival at and departure from the ports to be visited. The ships will leave their home bases on the Atlantic and Pacific early in January, and fleet concentration, tac- tical exercises, &c., are to be conducted at Panama until about February 15. The fleet will proceed about that date down the coast, and different ships] probably will visit Callao in Peru, and wimbo, Valparaiso, and Talcahuano in Chile. By the end of March the ships will be nearing home ports on the Atlantic and Pacific, those of the battle fleet going to San Fedro and San Diego, Calif., and those of the scouting fleet either to Guantanamo, Cuba, or to the capes of the Chesapeake.

JULY CFMIAUTOMATIC. GUN RECEIVING. CAREFUL aTUDY FROM BOARD Specific Caliber for Develop- ment by Ordnance Depart- ment Is Sought. TESTS ARE CONDUCTED AT TWO ARMY POSTS Ammunition to Be Made After Group’s Report Is Given. —-— In order to recommend a specific caliber for the future development of semiautomatic shoulder-rifies, careful study is being given the subject by a board recently appointed for that pur- pose, headed by Col. William Hi Tschap- pat, of the Army ordnance department, and representing all interested branches of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps. The board later will perform such other duties as may be assigned in connec- tion with tests of such weapons. Appointment of this board follows receipt by the War Department from the infantry board at Fort Benning, Ga., and cavalry board at Fort Riley, Kans., of reports conducted by them of two caliber .30 and one caliber .276 semiautomatics, in which reports there are statements in favor of the principle that such a weapon possesses such mill- tary and other characteristics as to Justify adoption thereof as the standard shoulder-arm in the event a mechanic- ally satisfactory one is producéd. Al- though none of the semtautomatics tested by the infantry and boards was found to be entirely satis- factory, they all functioned to the ex- tent required for the boards to ascer- tain the actual, or at least theoretical, abllities of the several types. Will Study Calibers. The present board will go very thor- oughly into the advantages and disad- vantages of calibers .30, 276, .356, and .28, and perhaps other sizes, with a view to reaching conclusions with respect to the most desirable caliber when all per- | tinent factors are taken into considera- | tion. Following receipt and approval of the board's report, the Government manufacture ammunition of the cali- ber and other characteristics prescribed, with a view of making it avallable to those that may wish to submit weapons for competitive tests under the aus- pices of the War Department. The time | and place of these tests will nounced a sufficient time to enable prospective competitors to adapt their weapons to the caliber pre- scribed.

Federal employes in Washington last week started in to fill out the blanks issued by the commission on veterans’ preference recently appointed by Presi- dent Coolidge. One of the first problems presented to the commission was on the matter of members of the same families be- ing on the Federal payrolls while no places could be found for qualified veterans or the wives of eligible vet- erans when the former service man is in the hospital. Representative Hamil- ton Fish, of New York, who was named chairman of the commission, was in- formed there are many cases in Wash- ington where husband and wife, with- out any preferences, are carried by Uncle Sam at combined salaries that run into the thousands, while the dis- abled man and members of his family, who meet Civil Service Commission requirements, cannot be placed. Before the commission decided to take any stand on this matter it was decided to obtain complete statistics and it is the blanks bringing out this information that are now being filled out by the employees of the various departments. Due to other business Representative Fish is not expected to attend all meetings of the commission during the summer, but in his absence Director Frank T. Hines of the Veterans’ Bu- reau, will preside with a representa- tive of the D.. A. V. sitting with the commission. During a series of conferences here last week, which were participated in by Millard W. Rice, of Minneapolis, re- cently elected national commander, and the staff ot the Washington office of the D.‘A. V., plans were decided upon as to campaigns of the D. A. V. to bring about favorable action on the legislative and rehabilitation programs that were adopted at the national con- vention at Denver the last week in June. More than three dozen points, mostly directly concerning the Veterans’ Bu- reau, which were on the rehabilitation program, will be presented directly to Director. Hines, with the reasons why certain proposed changes in bureau pro- cedure should be made. The D. A. V. complaint at. Denver was directed mostly at delays at the D. A. V. plan, calls for certain changes calculat- ed to speed adjudication in the individ- ual plans and\a speeding up of the bu- reau'’s reaction on all proposals of the disabled men themselves on matters of broad policies. While one of the consistent policies of the D. A. V. has been not to interfere with personnel one of the de- cisions of the Denver convention was to have the national commander make a complete survey of the activities of the central office of the bureau and recom- mend to Gen.

The advice of National Commander Rice was sought while he was. here by the executive committee of the District of Columbia Department of the D. A. V. on a number of Internal problems that have been worrying the organiza- tion here. Having been formerly adjutant of the Department of Minnesota, Com- mander Rice is rated as being particu- larly well informed on matters within departments, and his advice served to clear up several things about which the department was undecided. The Naval Hospital Chap‘er of the D. A. V. the other day reelected M. J. Hanley commander. Commander Han- ley has already successfully served sev- eral terms and his first decision was to conduct an aggressive membership cam- paign by trying to contact all the World War men in the institution on the riverfront. The other officers chosen by the chapter were Dennis Polly, senior vice commander; Thomas C. Snider, junior vice commander; Charles J. Kelly, ad- jutant and treasurer, and Frank P.

By EDWARD T. FOLLIARD. PRESIDENT will be inaugurated here on March 4 next, the thir- tieth in American history. When he takes the oath, out on the south portico of the Capitol, he will assume the highest office of the greatest nation in the world. How is this momentous. event to be celebrated? Will it be like the glorious inaugurations of old, or will it be like the simple cere- monies of 1921 and 19257? The difference is this: One calls for a magnificent parade and a glittering ball; it calls for color and pageantry, all the things upon which enthu- siasm feeds. The other, born of abnormal post-war conditions, is an inauguration shorn of glamour, boiled down to the actual swear- ing-in ceremony and a dash to the White House. The decision, of course, will rest with the President-elect, but that happy man in all likelihood will seek the answer in the hearts of his countrymen. And unless the signs are deceiving, the answer is going to be in the affirmative—that is, of a “real’’ inauguration. From where this writer stands, it looks like the people of America are in the mood to blow off a little patriotic steam. Suppose that it should be such an inaugu- ration— Turn back the pages of time, Cleveland, Roosevelt or Wilson, and then, borrowing from what you find, reconstruct your own picture of the event. What a glor- ious picture! Pennsylvania avenue riotous with flags and bunting, its sidewalks thronged with humanity; clattering cavalry, rumbling artillery and shuffling infantrymen; -West Pointers and Annapolis Midshipmen turning at the Treasury like the spokes in a wheel; the political marching clubs, high-hatted and picturesque; proud, goose-stepping drum ma- jors with bearskin headgear; music, cheer- ing and wild enthusiasm; and at the end, the President, reviewing it all with pride: That's the old-fashioned way, the American way. ° . . o ND then, at night, the inaugural ball. Women in dazzling evening gowns, dip- lomats and officers in their uniforms; mag- nificent decorations and romantic music, and in favor back to Should Herbert Hoover be the one to_ride down to the Capitol and back to the White House, the number of visitors probably would range from 300,000 to 400,000. Should. Al- fred E. Smith be the man, it is conceivable that 500,000 would come here, maybe more. New York alone would be expected to send thalf that many. These visitors will leave millions of dollars in the Capital. In any event, Washington will be ready for the crowds. Few persons realize it, but this city ranks fourth for the number and size of fts hotels. For a city of its size, it can take care of a tremendous number of visitors. This was proved by the manner in which it housed the Shriners when they came here, and the way in which the 30,000 visitors at Easter are sheltered. Perhaps this would be as good a time as any to mention something that the hotel men of this city have done. Listen to Laurence Mills, secretary of the Hotel Association of Washington, D. C., an organization made up of the leading hotel men of the city. “There will be no gouging at inauguration time,’’ says Mills. ‘“‘The hotel men here are pledged not to raise their rates during con- ventions or other gatherings, and when the inaugural crowds arrive they will find the regular rates prevailing.’ 1a 7 - # OT since the first inauguration of Wood- row Wilson in 1913 has there been a real a Ree ee: eri) a3 Oe Ss ‘ ae + ees . ; wy a Sa , \ 3 DS Sy.

On that occasion, it was estimated that there were 250,000 visitors here. The parade lasted until after dark, and enthusiasm ran high. Charles F.

Even so, however, there was a fairly long parade. Warren G. Harding decreed that his inaugura- tion should be simple and unostentatious, and Galvin Coolidge did likewise. The re- sult was that a comparatively small num- ber of visitors came here, _ His wish was ignored; When George Washington set out from Mount Vernon for New York to, be inaugurated the first President, he expressed the wish that his journey north and’the inauguration cere- mony itself should be as simple as possible. for once the great leader’s admirers defied him.

From then on the various towns and cities through which the hero passed vied with each other to do him honor. Arches were erected for him, parades were held for him, Arriv- cannon saluted him and pretty girls pelted, him with flowers. 4 . 7 * ASHINGTON took the oath of office at noon, Thursday, April 30, 1789, while standing on a balcony of the old Federal Building in New York. A great crowd was gathered in Wall and Broad streets. A contemporary account says that the day “was given up to rejoicing, and at night there was a brilliant display of fireworks.”’ When arrangements were being made for Washington’s inauguration the managers of the City Assembly, which was the fashionable ,dancing class of New York, made plans to give an inaugural ball. Mrs. Washington did not accompany the President when he went to New. York, so the plan was abandoned. On the evening of May 7, however, a splen- did ball was given in Washington’s honor at the Assembly rooms, on Broadway, near Wall street. About 300 persons were present, in- cluding Washington and John Adums. The President danced several times during the evening, taking part in the cotillion, the min- uet and other dances. Washington’s second inauguration, in Phila- delphia, was less spectacular than ‘the first.

The last official inaugural ball was given following the inauguration of William How- ard Taft in 1909. The scene was the court of the Pension Office, and about 10,000 per- sons were in attendance, President Taft and Mrs, Taft led the grand promenade, A few days before Andrew Jackson was inaugurated, in 1829, the eloquent Daniel Webster wrote to a friend, saying that “a great multitude, too many to be fed without a miracle, are alréady in the city, and it seems as though the Nation has rushed to the Capital.” Jackson was inaugurated amid scenes of wild excitement. The campaign: between him and John Quincy Adams had been of great bitterness. A pamphlet reflecting on the characters of Jackson and his wife was broadcast by Adams’ supporters, and Jackson held that Adams was responsible for its cir- culation, Shortly before the {nauguration Mrs. Jack- son died, and it was belleved that the dise grace of the attacks on her was responsible, Jackson, who loved his wife with a fierce dee votion, never forgave Adams, He refused to make the customary call on him before the inauguration, and on March 3 President Adams moved out of the White House and went to live with a friend. * + o * \ HEN Jackson took the oath at the Capitol on March 4, the crowd was so great and the people were so anxious to reach their beloved leader that it was necessary to stretch a ship’s cable across the steps. Afterward it was with great difficulty that hé could be brought back to the White House. At the White House, the crowds broke in the doors, climbed up on the tables and chairs, and smashed things generally in their mad attempts to shake the hand of their idol. James K. Polk, perhaps the darkest dark horse that ever won the presidential nomina- tion, was one of the few Presidents to receive what today is known as the “razzberry” ag he rode down Pennsylvania avenue. Through- out the campaign, the derisive cry of his opponents was, “Who is James K, Polk?” This cry also arose as he drove to the Whité House. “The first inauguration of Abraham Lin- coln in 1861 was a dramatic event.

Lindbergh and the feminine transatianaic flier, Miss Amelia Ear- bart, makes them the most interesting pair of “doubles” in modern times. Lindy and “‘Lady Lindy” not only have an uncanny facial likeness to each other, but they have an intellectual kinship in their aptitudes and their ambitions. They are both et the peak of the roster of international aviators and the fact that there is apparently no family relationship has created a consid- erable amount of interest among scientists because of the striking similarity in profile and career, Many conspicuous personalities have had doubles—President Rooseveit, King Edward, Kaiser Wilhelm, President McKinley, King Alfonso and a host of others. Amusing and dramatic incidents have occutred as the re- sult of mistaken identitye arising out of these resemblances. The gripping, colorful episodes - made possible by the confusion caused by physical likeness has not been overlooked by the creators of fiction, and “The Mas- querader” and “Prisoner of Zenda” are two of the most fascinating novcls woven around this theme. Amelia Earhart was born in Kansas, while Charles Lindbergh was born in Detroit, Mich. Prof. von Bemmelen, of Cruningen Univer- sity, Holland, who has made a special] study of “doubles,” declares that in every case of striking physical similarity a common an- cestry was proved, According to the Dutch savant, if you resemble one of the world’s great men you can properly claim blood re- lationship. He points out that this is not strange, since if one goes back eight genera- tions a man has 256 ancestors and thirty generations 1,000,000 forbears, “The resemblance between these young people,’’ says Dr. Thaddeus L. Bolton, head of the department of psychology of Temple University, referring to Col. Lindbergh and Miss Earhart, “is wholly accidental, unless by chance it shall be found that they have a common ancestry which is not very re- mote, “The fact that people are all human causes them to resemble eacn other. Likenesses get closer to each other as we study people with- in’ a race, a tribe or family. In the case of Lindbergh and ‘Lady Lindy,’ there is a core- lationship of ‘point 40’ which is a term used in psychology to cover the resemblance be- tween two sets of separate facts. “We find this occasionaily in children of the same family. Identical twins have been known to reach a resemblance as close as 99.5 per cent. In such cases discrimination is difficult.” D® BOLTON points out that common dis- orders of the. thyroid gland cause changes in the features which result in peo- ple resembling each other ‘This affects the nose more than any other facial feature. The prominence of the nose is such that it hides the resemblance or the differences in other features. “Both transatlantic fliers,’’ says Dr. Bol- ton, “are Scandinavians by descent. The ra- cial features are strongly developed in both. The resemblance is most striking in the eyes, nose and chin. These resemblances may have been lightly emphasized by some form of hypertrophy (overdevelopment) or atrophy (underdevelopment) of the features.” Following Lindbergh’s rise to fame and her own interest in aviation, Miss Earhart’s friends often commented on her resemblance to the international hero of the air. Her own ambition was fired to be like him and, ac- cording to Dr. Bolton, her physical identity with Col. Lindbergh may hive acted as a stimulus to a more persistent imitative ten- dency on the part of the girl to follow Lind- bergh’s flight. siduieuihiiaaiinineaie iF PRR pnt: By!

Many look upon a double as being great fun, but one of King Edward’s doubles, Baron Alfred Stern, multimillionaire, had to be locked up. Specialists did not hesitate to declare that the lunacy of the baron had to a great extent been brought about by his hav- ing been mistaken so frequently by strangers for Edward VII.

Owing to his extraordinary resemblance to King Edward, the spectacle which he pre- sented struggling in the hands of the police threatened at one moment to result in a riot, some of the spectators being under the im- pression that it was their king who was being roughly handled by police. Percy Marsden, a well-known stock broker in London, who was constantly addressed as “Your Majesty,’’ has said that being a double has more embarrassments than advantages, “Perhaps the most embarrassing of an ex- tended series occurred one night when I paid a visit to a celebrated cafe in Paris,’’ he said. “TIT was accompanied by Mrs. Marsden and an- other woman and her husband. There was some whispering when I entered, while I was handing my cloak and cane to the waiter, and then suddenly all the people at the table rose'and the band struck up the British na- tional anthem. The other diners remained standing until my party passed down the room and took seats. Once, too, the crowd at the Brighton race track cheered enthusi- astically, evidently thinking that his majesty was paying an unexpected visit. “I attended the theater one night when the king and queen were present. The queen, who had been looking through her glasses, directed his majesty’s attention my way, and a laughing conversation ensued.” Emperor Louis Napoleon’s double was old Father Godillot, a well-known military con- tractor, who got into the way of imitating all his sovereign’s mannerisms, such as the drooping of the eyelids, the stroking of the heavy mustache and, above all, the peculiar waddling. walk. People were never tired of making fun of this resemblance, and whenever the imperial government perpetrated any piece of policy that the public considered a mistake, they would insist that the fault was due to Godil- lot on the ground that whenever the emperor felt too bored to attend the council of min- isters he would send Godillot to take his place, the likeness being so strong that the ministers would never know the difference. On several occasions Godillot got the em- pefor into very serious trouble, as, for in- stance, when he allowed himself to be per- suaded to attend a dinner given by the in- famous’ Mamanine de Paiva, who was at that | quee Thiol Aa: aarp President Coolidge, one of the i many \ famous persons who havedouhbles King George of England, left, and kis ce . - double, Sir Henry Whitehead, upon whom misplaced public homage is often thrust. French capital and a German government Spy. _ . . * HE people who had persuaded Godillot to attend the dinner were bent on compro- mising the emperor. Quite a number of newspaper men had been warned that the emperor was to dine there, and when they saw Godillot entering they believed it to be true and circulated the story far and wide. The tale was generally believed and did the emperor considerable harm, besides getting him into trouble with the empress. Thomas Merton, a newspaper man of Can- ton and Pittsburgh, who reported McKinley’s “front porch’ campaign in 1896, was often photographed as the candidate, and many of the daily and weekly magazines carried snap- shots of McKinley which were really repro- ductions of Merton’s face and figure taken with the tacit consent of McKinley, who once remarked that they were ‘‘just as lifelike and often better looking than the real article.”’ Five hundred persons, all of whom knew Merton personally, saw him do his first pos- ing of this sort. A famous publication which had always prided itself upon the accuracy of its pictures sent a corps of men to Canton in the early days of the campaign to get up a big pictorial issue. They arrived on Saturday afternoon, only to learn that the candidate was not feeling well. While bewailing this delay, the leader of the picture corps saw Merton passing and captured him by main force. “IT want you to get up on the porch and pose as Mr. McKinley,” he shouted. . * 7 + ~ HE newspapermen thought the fellow was crazy when’ he began to take off his Prince Albert coat. In a few minutes, Mer- ton, dressed in the silk hat and coat, mounted the steps of the McKinley home and, while the future President was slumbering inside, he posed for pictures which afterward became famous. Mr. McKinley, when told of the in- cident the next day, laughed heartily and later declared that they were among the best he had ever had taken. | When t McKinley | was in Chicago in 1892 be make a speech, Merton passed through the police lines and rang the bell of the house where the then Governor of Ohio was staying. Orders had been given that Mr. McKinley should not be disturbed. A negro servant, frowning severely, opened the door a few inches. His jaw dropped and his frown gave way to a look of consterna- tion. One minute before the servant had seen Gov. McKinley at breakfast, but here he seemed to be at the front door. “Take this card to Gov. McKinley,” said Merton, chuckling to himself. *“‘Dar’s Mr. McKinley’s twin brother or his spook out dar,” was the message delivered by the butler with the card. McKinley promptly received Merton, who wanted a copy of his speech. He had no copy, so, commenc- ing to outline the points he was going to make, McKinley walked up and down the room and brought up facing a window. He broke off short, saying: “Look out. Here is trouble.” . Realizing it was not part of the speech, the reporter looked up, astonished. McKinley was halfway to the door. ‘“Good-by, don’t let them scare you,’”’ he said, pointing to the ‘long window opening on.the lawn, and was gone. Wheeling around, Merton beheld what ap- peared to be the entire population of Cook County making for the window. He grabbed his notes and jumped up, but he was too late for escape, A six-footer came through the window and grabbed his hand energetically. * ‘‘How are you, Maj. McKinley? I hope to see you President of the United States some day.”’ Merton protested, but he was overwhelmed by the mob, but he finally edged his way to the door through which the real McKinley had fled, slammed it behind him and hid until the police clearéd the crowd out of the house. ~ Lincoln had a double in Col. Elmer Loomis, of Girard, Kans., whose presence: on the streets used to send school children home de- claring that they had seen diweham ane ie in--$he teak Ch to see how the driver, hras Col.

Their resemblance is accentuated by their deeds, for they are the first of their respective sexes to span the Atlantic eastward He served in the Civil War and always ap- peared on the streets in a high silk hat and long coat, similar to that worn by the Pres- ident. His friends had often commented upon his likeness to Lincoln. “Out in Girard, where I lived for morg than forty years,”’ said Col. Loomis one time, “they called.me ‘Honest Abe’! They sent me for three tefms to the Kansas Legislature and I am proud of my resemblance to Lincoln, IY try to live as Lincoln did.” The person of historical consequence whe suffered most through the actions of a double was the ill-fated Queen Marie Antoinette of France, whose name was dragged through the mire in connection with the scandal of the diamond necklace in which the principal ac- tress was her living counterpart. (Copyright, 1928.) Golf Is Scotch Word. As golf clubs are wielded with more en thusiasm on countless greens dally, the origin of the game becomes lost in deeper obscurity. It is now wholly American in its widespread popularity; perhaps few players ever think that it could have been anything else—yet “golf” is a Scotch word, Golf is pronounced, by the way, sometimes with and sometimes without the 1; either ‘pronunciation is supported by authorities, though the sounding of all four letters seems to be the most common nowadays. Accord- ing to Webster’s New International Diction- ary, golf is related to ‘‘gouf,’’ Scotch for a blow or stroke. The game of golf itself may have come originally from Holland, The names of the clubs—driver, brassy, cleek, mid-iron, mashie, niblick, putter—are familiar to nearly every one now, but some years ago they would have sounded strange, especially cleek, mashie and niblick. Their origins are uncertain, though it is not hard (a wooden club soled with brass), and putter got their names. Webster’s New International gives a clue to cleek, also a Scotch word, in the Scotch defi- nition: “Act of cleeking: a clutch,” Tee is an old term used in games, being the mark aimed at, coming perhaps from the sign T being made to mark the spot.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JULY: ' 29, ' 1928. = — — ee | pee ESSE SE SRE Sam me eit y 3 4 te gga a at ag at et at Increased Supply of Water Due to the New Filtration Plant on Conduit Road Enables the City to Keep Fountains Going More Regularly Than in the Past— Boon to Children and Other Stay-at-Homes. By Victoria Faber Stevenson. UMMERTIME is fountain time, Stay- at-homes in Washington hear the sounds of splashing waters and en- joy their cooling effects boasting that the pleasure comes without the exertion of travel. Children wade in fountain pools and frolic in the water sprays with much the same satisfaction as those who spend their holidays at the sea side. Fortunately the city’s water supply has been increased during the past year since the Dalecarlia filtration plant on Conduit road has been in operation. Consequently the fountains and pools are being run more lib- erally this summer, However, in extremely hot spells when the city’s water consumption has nearly reached 90,000,000 gallons a day instead of the general average of 70,000,000 gallons, some fountains are turned off at cer- tain hours to conserve water. With the same thought as is expressed in the adage ‘‘You never miss the water till the well runs dry,” Washingtonians never appreciate their foun- tains as keenly as when they are turned off. Seats under the big trees in Dupont Circle are in general demand from early spring un- til late fall. During summer months though the stay-at-homes of the city have the park pretty much to themselves. It is during morning hours, in the late afternoons and early evenings that many people linger in the circle to enjoy the park breeze which is cooled as it blows through the waters of the foun- tain. Patrons of the park are pleased that the Congress of the United States erected this classical fountain to Admiral Dupont for his distinguished services to America to replace @ monument to the admiral which formerly stood in the circle. Tourists and Washing- tonians who take their vacations in Dupont Circle in installments of an hour a day aré sooner or later attracted to the artistic beauty of this Georgian marble sculpture of Daniel Chester French, who is better known for his statue of Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial. * + o * F the fountain consisted only of its upper basin with its three spouts pouring water down in three waterfalls into the large lower basin, it would still be graceful and just as cooling as it is now. The artist, though, has added rare charm to his work in the three sculptured figures on the shaft of the foun- tain. These figures represent the sea, the wind and the stars. The choice of this per- sonification was made no doubt because of the fact that the memorial is to an admiral who exploits were on the water where the wind is an important factor and where the stars have so often been looked to as guides across the sea. The draped character repre- senting the sea is attractive in feminine grace as she seemingly looks with calm and dreamy expression over a great expanse of water. She holds a boat as if exercising vigilance for the safety of all crafts and caresses a gull, a creature of her domain. The fish at her foot suggests the water denizens of the realm she rules. The youth who typifies the wind on one of the other sections of the shaft has a serious expression. He looks down upon the water in the large marble basin as if it really were the sea. He seems to be wondering which wind to call with the conchshell bugle he holds with his left hand and which gales to subdue by the wave of his right hand which os SSS AAA OR SORE. NOIR TON ee ee The Columbus Fountain at the Union Station. is extended over the water and over the sails of the ship which is riding the waves at his feet. The other figure symbolizes the stars and is partially wrapped in a filmy mantle studded with stars. She holds a globe which is girdled as if to show the path of the celestial bodies. As she gazes intently at the big sphere she satisfies herself that each star is following its regular course to a reliable guide to lead travelers of the sea. The twelve-foot granite urn fountain cut from one piece of stone on the north side of the Treasury is situated at such a busy part of the city that most people enjoy it only for its refreshing appearance. It seems a veritable oasis on a hot and sultry corner. This foun- tain drips its dainty stream over the sides of its large circular basin to the pool below, where gold fish glide and dart ail summer long. From across the street this oldest sculptured fountain in the city looks like an immense shallow urn entirely grown over with green, which even falls over its sides.

Every day is now carni- val day in front of the Lincoln Memorial, for until 3 o'clock the center spouts play, and from then on until 5 the tower sprays are turned on. Though these water sprays cool the air, the greatest interest of the fountains is centered in the rainbow feature which the bright sun furnishes in splashes of color. During wading hours children have the joy of getting wet all over in this immense pool, which is safe and large enough to furnish ex- c.ement of real showers to thousands of noisy, happy youngsters. Fountains in Washington seem to have been built in forms and location to suit all tastes. Those who prefer water spouts in secluded spots have. their choice of two such mystic nooks. In a sequestered triangle south of the White House is a garden fountain erected to two victims of the Titanic disaster. Maj. Archibald W. Butt was known as the military aid to President Taft, and Francis D. Millet as vice chairman of the Fine Arts Commis- sion. After they perished off, the coast of Newfoundland their friends erected this foun- tain to their memory. A low granite pedestal supports a flat bowl of Tennessee marble, from which arises a square shaft. On one side of this stone an armored knight with shield and sword is shown in bas-relief. He characterizes the chivalry of Maj. Butt in aid- ing the women and children to safety in the sea disaster in which he perished. On the opposite of the stone is a woman in classical robes holding the pallet board of a painter, symbolizing Millet’s usefulness in the art world. ; Another almost hidden fountain in the city is in one of the coolest spots to be found. The grotto in the grounds on the north side of the Capitol used tebe more of a show place than it is today. This quaint summer haven is a red brick rest house, overgrown with ivy. It is without’roof, and entered by day by one of its three iron gates, which are kept locked at night. In its center is a bubbling fountain with no spouting water, but with three small sprays falling constantly into a basin built to resemble the top of a well. Three small out- lets from this basin supply drinking water. After visitors quench their thirst they usually linger to sit on the bronze seats around the triangular walls of the building and to look through the latticed openings above the bench seats on one side of the rest house at the miniature grotto with streams of water trick- ling over its rocks. This romantic cove was built when Frederick Olmstead was landscape gardener at the Capitol. If it only had a tra- dition such as the old medicinal springs of Greece or the old rural fountains of Brittany, which were reached by going down a few steps, its supply of water would not meet the demands. . * ~ 2 ING NEPTUNE holds court daily in front of the Congressional Library. Tourists anxious for refreshing breezes from his wWat- ery realm stand around the 50-foot semi- circular basin of the fountain to pay homage to His Majesty. In this court of Neptune the sea king, a regal bronze figure that would be twelve feet high if standing, sits on a rock throne. He has the strength of a Samson if his hairy head and long beard are signifi- cant of might. The powerful muscles and prominent sinews of his nude form portray him as the conqueror of the raging sea. A sea serpent in front of him, raising its head and half its body above the water, snaps out defiance of its master to other denizens of the deep. Neptune’s sons, the princely Tri- tons standing at his right and left, have the cockshell bugles raised to their lips for they are summoning other subjects before the king. Streams of ‘water gush from these shells to add their sprays to the fountain. Two water nymphs riding powerful sea horses_with tails of fishes hurry to the king, one on his right and one on his left. Though the huge animals are almost exhausted in their efforts to overcome the wind and waves, their graceful riders are apparently little dis- turbed, for each holds on with but one hand. The artistic skill in turning the heads of these sea horses to the sides allows the beautiful faces of the sea nymphs to be fully seen. The two large frogs which spray water from the side of the rock where Neptune sits and the four large turtles which spout out water-on the sea horses, are fountains in themselves. They recall the legend which tells that when Latavia asked Jupiter to punish the peasants of Lysia for refusing to give her a drink of water he changed them into frogs and turtles which should pass most of their lives in the water.

It will always be dis- tinctive to the National Capital as Hinton Perry, its designer and sculpturer, destroyed his drawings in agreement with his contract. Until last fall the Bertholdi fountain stood in the Botanic Gardens close to Pennsylvania avenue, It was then taken down to make room for the Meade Memorial and stored to await the laying out of the new Botanic Gar- dens. For many years it has been considered one of the important pieces of sculpture in the United States. It is renowned because its sculptor, Bertholdi, was the same artist who produced the Goddess of Liberty in New York harbor and because it stood near the main building in the eyes Exposition at Philadelphia in 1876. When Congress bought it for $6,000 after Ah exposition was over, it was thought to be bronze, but weathering proved it to be iron, This fountain of such distinctive daintiness is greatly missed for it stood on the same site about 50 Years, Though the Peace Monument has fountain features in the form of water spouts, the monument is not usually thought of as a fountain. The original design of the artist, Franklin Simmonds, included ornamental water features, but water was not supplied to the monument until 1892. As this fountain is in the heart of the city, it has in years passed proved a boon to many and especially to the children who have waded in the basin at its base, * 8 * e HOSE who live in the neighborhood of the filfration plant at the head of North Capitol street enjoy the McMillan fountain ig its garden setting in McMillan Park, There is always plenty of sparkling, splashing water falling at this fountain because the water used there comes from the reservoir close by and afterward runs into one of the filtration beds to be purified for city use, This master piece of Herbert Adams, the sculptor, stands at the top of a broad flight of pink granite steps flanked by evergreens. it is in the center of an octagonal stone plate form around which there are stone seats.

il th} le. COAST GUARD SHIP TO STUDY ICEBERGS «UMMM avenge Hii Ue Witt Glaciers. SMALL but very seaworthy craft of the United States Coast Guard has been all hustle and bustle for the past three weeks at her pier in New London, Conn., out- fitting for one of the most unique and un- usual missions which one could find in many aday. Her deck winches, special davits and array of strange instruments quickly catch the eye. The little ship, with its 2 officers and 20 men, all told, has orders from Wash- ington to sail as soon as possible to a strange and unknown sea. Briefly, the object of her quest is to learn everything possible regard- ing the behavior of the icebergs from the time they break off the Greenland glaciers until they finally melt in the warm, tropical waters of the North Atlantic. Icebergs are a mighty important concern of the navigator, especially when they become strewn haphazardly along the path of commerce. Few of us realize the great menace that icebergs form to the giant liners plying between the United States and Europe. After the Titanic disaster in 1912, the United States, at the invitation of other maritime nations, established a ship patrol of the ice regions which lie off Newfoundland along the track of the New York to London steamships. During the course of 14 years a great deal of information has been collected in this area by the United States Coast Guard (the service which supplies the ships and men), and now the time has arrived when science demands the whole story; therefore the little ship Marion has sailed for polar climes. Sailed July 12. The particular object which science has in view is a searching inquiry into the direction and rate of movement of the oceanic currents between Greeland and the steamer tracks, be- cause the currents are the real transporters of the dangerous ice southward. It may be interesting to hear just how Lieut. Comdr. Edward H. Smith and Lieut. N. G. Rickets, the two oceanographers heading the expedi- tion, intend to accomplish this task. The Marion is headed boldly across from’ New- foundland to Greenland, a total distance of approximately 600 miles, along the route of which, every 25 miles she will stop and lower instruments over the side registering the temperature of the water, not only at the sur- face, but at several depths from the surface all the way down to the bottom, and simul- taneously a sample of the water at each par- ticular level will be captured for analysis, The thermometers employed in this work are built to withstand pressure as great as ten tons, beneath the surface of the ocean. About three miles of steel wire wound on an enor- mously heavy winch is required to carry out this oceanographic work, and from the time the weights and instruments are lowered away until they are again hove in, it takes approximately one hour. ~*~ * oo — HE Marion has another winch which car- ries a fine stranded wire, barely larger than a hairpin in size, and, when released, this weight to fall, which, striking the bottom, grabs a sample of the mud and ooze. The type of stratification of the bottom found by the Coast Guard expedition is bound to re- veal Greenland and Labrador history long be- fore man existed in ages past. The samples of water which are secured are drawn off into air-tight bottles, and, with much care, tested by means of an electric current for the rela- tive amount of solid matter (mineral salts) held in solution. These two simple but all- important factors, temperature and salinity at various depths in the water mass, are to be the two main observations of the entire expedition. The Marion will thus traverse diagonally back and forth between Greenland and the North American continent, her scien- tists carefully and exactly recording each tem- perature and each salinity, day and night, stormy and fair, until a total distance of over 4,000 miles has been completed. This mate- rial will furnish the information necessary to construct a current map of the entire re- gion, for all the world similar to the everyday weather maps published by the U. S. Weather Bureau.

The Marion, besides her winches and sounding machine, is exceedingly well equip- ped for her job. She has an apparatus called a fathomotor, manufactured by the Subma- rine Signal Corporation, of Boston, which consists of two so-called oscillators, seturely riveted to the shell plating near the keel. These are heavy steel disks that vibrate by electricity, emitting a loud musical note whenever a button is pressed in the pilot house. The depth of water is determined by measuring exactly the length of time it takes the sound of one of these notes to propagate down to the bottom and be reflected into two pairs of very sensitive “ears,”’ called micro- phones, also attached to the Marion’s hull be- neath the surface. It will be routine for the officer of the watch to take a sounding every half-hour in order to map the contours of the bottom, and of the poorly sounded basins be- tween Greenland and areas of over 50,000 square miles on our charts today in which a sounding has never been taken by man, and the United Hydrographic Office is anxious to secure more information. Many a ship has mysteriously disappeared, when possibly the answer may Mass., Labrador. There are States be some jagged unknown reef lying treach- erously beneath the surface. . a * » HE Marion proceeds northward equipped with one of the most modern and efficient radio sets which ever had been the fortune of an exploring vessel. Communication over such long distances as will intervene between the expedition and civilization will be accom- plished by means of the short length radio waves, propagating through the ether. It is this particular short wave phase of radio which is most employed by amateur radio fans, and it is of interest to note that the Ma- rioh expects to maintain communication with the United States through the courtesy and %, of cooperation of these same amateurs.+ The American Radio Relay League of Hartford, Conn., has notified its many members, widely scattered throughout the United States, to listen in each night for the call of the Coast Guard boat in the Arctic. Another important piece of radio apparatus on the Marion is a new designed radio compass which can pick up waves from a sending station several hun- dred miles away, and point with great accu- racy toward the emanating point. This ap- paratus is held in very high esteem by those in charge of the navigation of this exploring vessel inasmuch as the cold water regions where the Marion will cruise during the sum- mer are filled with of the time.

S., July 17, just 20 years to a day after Admiral Peary steamed from there in the Roosevelt on his last and suc- cessful drive for the North Pole. The Marion will follow his course northeastward through the Straits of Belle Isle, a narrow cut separat- ing Newfoundland from Labrador. These straits are usually open to navigation from the first part of July to the middle of Decem- ber, and they are the shortest route between Kurope and St. Lawrence ports. Reports re- cently received from Commander Donald Mc- Millan state that it is a most unusual year along the Labrador coast. There is practical- ly no field ice whatever in spite of much east- erly wind this spring. Although the Straits of Belle Isle is in the same latitude as the English Channel, it fs, on account of the Lab- rador current and the extreme fluctuations of the eastern North American climate, ice choked the greater part of the year. Once past Belle Isle, the Marion set her course northeastward and began in earnest to study the currents, depths, observations of the number of icebergs, and meteorological observations. Immediately she left behind the beaten track of navigation, and entered waters familiar only to old whalers, occa- sional cod and haddock fishermen, and an explorer now and then. The summer season will be at its height during the two months’ cruise; long days will be the order, with a very cold climate on the North American side, and an ameliorated, damp, foggy weather over on the Greenland shore. It is hoped that storms will be infre- quent, and that the worst dangers to be en- countered will bé only from fog and ice, but when the United States is enjoying its vaca- tion from cyclonic storms, the Labrador and - Baffin Land region is still on their path. One of the most dangerous places that the Marion will visit is Hudson Strait, where the high land falls precipitously to a rocky water’s edge. It is reported that the } tide rises and falls 30 feet in the 60-mile wide entrance be- tween two forbidding headlands, and that the pulsations of the current pushed by an inland ‘ocean runs at: seven.knots velocity, forming WUE eM UU eee AOA zs lui nem >= = rgyett Hie 1% j . ” RADA!

The land is lofty and majestic, Trav- elers say few lands in their wanderings have excited the imagination beyond that of North- ern Labrador. Unusual sights are in store for the scien- tists of the Marion on the Greenland side as well. If they penetrate northward along the western coast of that continent, as itds now planned to do, they will have a fine oppor- tunity to study and watch great icebergs act- ually fall with thunderous roar from the gla- cier faces.

In the southern part of their wanderings along the cap, in that strange and distant land. Greenland coast, in August, the Marion will moor in sheltered havens where the flowered valleys of southwestern Greenland slope downward to the sea. While this expedition of the Coast Guard appears full of adventure and unseen hazards, Washington has ordered that not too great chances be taken. While every effort will be made,to accomplish the program laid down, primary consideration must be given at all times to the safety of the personnel and of th ship. There are no records that are to be striven for, no pole to be discovered, and no foolhardy stunts to be undertaken. The pio- neering has been done, and the regions are now visited by a new generation, scientists, the main Objects of whom is a systematic sur- vey, and a careful examination of conditions, using the latest types of instruments, and the most modern methods practiced in Yoceanog- raphy. ~* * - * HERE are many far-reaching results which may, little suspected, develop from the in- vestigations of the Marion expedition. For example, almost a century ago, and many times since, Whalers and explorers have ob- served the existence of clear, open water in the midst of high ice-piled frozen Baffin Bay. Even in the coldest winters, it is marveled this area has remained free of ice, and thus gained the name of ‘‘North Water.’’ Common belief attributes this condition to the Gulf Stream, which, thousands of miles away, is supposed to dive beneath the surface of the there MUL LE ‘ Bs; utes 3s $362s355 ae Te Ter shad Ft Bees bs Sener MOECT! 1) PNO ORT Stik, will study ice berg situation in interest of navigation.

MAMA a a wT st aR RS UL MMT ELLE Te HT ARTA A WaT ase “HOT DOG” PUTS ON A Hi OU A Lk Me La A Becomes “Ye Hotte fuune” as Associations Launch Campaigns to Equip Him With Better Sur- roundings—New Designs for Refreshment and Gasoline Stands Show Artistic Merit. By HARRY HITES. HE lowly “hot dog,” satisfier of the gastronomic demands of epicure and newsboy alike, is beginning to take unto itself what is commonly designated as “airs.”’ In other words, the frankfurter, best pur- veyed in a long roll with a dash of mustard and a little ground onion, is wearing a silk hat these days and “‘high-hatting” the ‘‘dogs’’ of a previous generation as a result of the refreshment-stand competition initiated by Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, jr., of New York, through the Art Center of that city and the American Civic Association of Washington, supported by contributions from the Adolf Gobel Co. The reason for the aforesaid “‘high-hat” proclivities of the present-day ‘‘dog’’ is a sign on a Florida stand, where the Elizabethan style of English makes it ‘“‘Ye Hotte Dogge.” All of which information is contributed by Frank A. Connolly, of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association, whose interest is aroused by the fact that all the prize-winning designs to date have been composed of wood. Whether this has worked out to the advan- tage of the puppy purveyors has not yet been determined as this goes to press. Frank ad- mits that the N. L. M. A. has sent a code mes- sage to lumbermen in all parts of the country directing them to encourage the use of the frankfurter as an article of the daily menu, but there is always a chance that the con- crete and steel] manufacturers‘may have sent a similar message, directing their workers to abstain from the frizzled Fidoes, and thus, as they say in Congress, virtually ‘“‘paired’’ the vote of the lumbermen, For more years than the writer likes to re- member the “torrid towser,” “peppery pup,” “hot K-9’’ and other variations of the title of “hot dog’ has been the mainstay of many a picnic luncheon or beer'party. (Beg pardon. We shouldn't have mentioned beer. We for- got about the passage of tlie eighteenth amendment.) It was from goods boxes, carnival kitchens (where you could get a hamburger, too. Gee, I’m getting hungry), “dirty spoon’ restaurants, barrooms (Beg pardon again) and other places which catered more strictly to the male appetite. + ¥ * * HEN the ladies, having acquired the pants, short hair, the ballot and other things formerly indigenous to the stronger (?) sex, proceeded to acquire a taste for the dogs, and the popular puppies became even more popular. - It was inevitable that, having attracted the attention of the invisible empire, otherwise known as woman, the pups should progress to new heights. Formerly a lowly nickel bought one, but the price soon went to a dime. Today you can buy a real aristocratic hot dog in the night clubs for a dollar and a half. That doesn’t really mean anything, for it’s the same kind that you get at Carl Hammel’s fer a dime, but the night clubs, always susceptible to any gastronomic demand, have installed them. ' The increasing importance of the hot dog, coupled with the disgraceful lack of progress in purveying it to the public, brought about the contest sponsored by Mrs. Rockefeller for the purpose of giving the traveling public cheerful surroundings while destroying its favorite food. As the traveling public today is. largely . composed of motorists, the idea was expanded to give the traveler not only an artistic place served VENATOTUNEYOPADENERRLTOAEETPET A ELEEPE OPEL TET AREETO OPERATOR ETRE TEE ET Ht VALET in which to dispose of the hot dog and kindred soft drinks, but also a place where the sense of the most aesthetic could not be offended while filling the tank with gasoline, and the prizes were offered for combination refreshment stands and gasoline stations. * 7 * * HEN the campaign for beautifying way- side refreshment stands and gas stations was initiated by Mrs. Rockefeller, she gave $7,000 to be awarded in prizes for photo- graphs and plans for the stands then in ex- istence, An additional contribution of $10,- 000 was made by the Adolf Gobel Co., for the support of these competitions.

(A.P.).—Enough is known of psychology and mental processes today to make possible production of a super race of men, and women if proper means of control- ling the environment and instruction of’ chil- dren were available, in the opinion of Charles W. Taylor, superintendent of public instruc- tion in Nebraska. Principles of psychology and _ psychiatry applied to human problems of child growth is the key to the situation, he says, cHartts W. W. TA) YL OR. In the schools of the future, the problem- child, whether subnormal, or supernormal, will be carefully studied, advised and con- trolled according to principles of psycho- logical analysis, Taylor predicts. The nerve systems of the present genera- tion probably are not developing in harmony with the new times fast enough to meet pres- ent day needs, “One result of this is a continually in- creasing number of mentally unbalanced youths. Numbers of them fly off on tangents of humon conduct and commit all sorts of emotionalsor brain-storm crimes. ‘Society is going to be compelled to adopt some means of protecting itself from this pe- culiar nervous product of modern times— from the large numbers of emotional crimes and moral delinquencies on the part of youth- ful criminals now so prevalent. “It is easy to imagine a time when. num- ‘bers of young people will go out into adult life with definite restrictions on their per- sonal] liberties, under a sort of parole or guardianship relation to some individual in the community. The danger of interfering with individual liberties produces one serious objection to any scheme of this kind, but in- dividual liber¥es always have been curtailed in the last andlysis, when the need of the larger social group seemed to demand it. “The schools of the future will provide adequate psychiatric and psychological staffs for the observation and advice of all children as individuals. Vocational guidance, and per- haps some measure of vocational control, will be part of the educational system. As much attention will be paid to mental health and poets - to mere penanns, 2 peomes. } COLOR AND MATERIALS The building is intended for a New England set- ting.

Adolf Gobel has already announced the third com- petition, which is for the purpose of en- couraging the building of stands from ib- formation gained from the first two contests. Stands must conform with the prize- winning designs, must be in harmony with the surrounding landscape and must show good taste and restraint in the use of ad- vertising matter. Photographs of the com- pleted stand ready for opening must be sub- mitted to the art center, together with the name of the architect whose plan was used, and an estimate of the cost of construction. The fourth competition will be of the nature of annual term of years for the good appearance and upkeep of those stands which have been built as a result of the second an@ third competitions. Approval of this campaign has been ex- pressed by the following: American Auto- mobile Association of America, American Institute of Architects, American Institute of Park Executives, American Nature Asso- ciation, American Society of Civil Engineers, Landscape Architects, New York, Chamber of Commerce of the United States, Garden Clubs of America, Federation of Women’s Clubs, National Committee for Re- striction of Outdoor National Conference on City Planning and National State Parks. awards over a American Society of Architectural League of General Advertising, Conference on W "ashineton Benects Real Inauguration CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. is believed that the se ‘ssionists would try to assassinate the Pre nt-elect and seize the reins of government The greater portion of Lincoln’s trip to this city was made in secret, and great eare protect him during the ride from the Capitol. Instead of the customary guard of honor, the carriage was surrounded by troops of United States soldiers. On the roofs of the houses along Pennsylvania ave- nue were placed squads of riflemen with orders to shoot instantly anyone who threat- ened to attack was taken to the presidential party. Cavalry guarded the streets crossings and a battalion of troops were placed on the steps of the Capitol. On the brow of a hill near the Capitol had been placed a battery of ar- tillery, and Gen. Scott was standing nearby to take personal command should it be neces- sary. At the conclusion of his address, President Lincoln kissed each of the 31 young girls who represented the States of the Union. He did not attend the ball given in his honor that night, but he did attend the one that was given following his second inauguration. Thig was held in the model room of the Patent Of- fice, and was a very gala affair. Grover Cleveland’s first inauguration marked the return of the Democratic party to power after an absence of a quarter of a century, and there was great enthusiasm. The day was clear, and the city was in gay at- tire. An account of th? parade said that “No such pageant ever before in time of peace Was seen On Pennsylvania avenue, For six long hours the columns continued to move.’’ William McKinley’s inauguration also was impressive. That of Theodore Roosevelt was perhaps even more so. Certainly it was more picturesque, There were more than 200,000 people here for the ceremony. ‘‘Teddy’”’ was escorted by his Rough Riders and by Civil War veterans. William Howard Taft’s in- auguration was marred by the elements. The weather was probably the worst ever ex- perienced on an inauguration day. The city was almost buried under a snow storm, and hundreds who were headed here were ma- rooned on the way. . . _ OCuriosity’s Blaze The city of New York is seeking an alien- ist’s opinion as to why people tamper with fire alarm boxes.

(A.P.).—Fred Lookout, 67, chiefof the Osage Indians, who have heen made rich by oil, hopes they will be happier when they again till the soil from which their wealth flows. In agriculture he places the hope for per- petuation of the tribe. . “Too many of my people intermarry with other people,’’ he laments in hesitant but dis- tinctly spoken English. ‘I want Osages to marry each other and keep the tribe from dying out. I want my people to show white brothers we can live on homesteads and run our farms good. I think my people happier if they get out and work on their land. I want them to raise chickens, grow fruit and corn and hogs and cows. Then I know Osages be better off if there be no oil. “Some day oil go,’”’ he says. ‘Maybe not in my lifetime. Perhaps in my son’s. Then what of his children?”’ Nature always provides for the Indians who know nature’s moods, the chief tells his younger subjects. But those whom nature pampers, he warns, forget how to win her favors when she is reluctant to give. The Osages were industrious farmers as well as hunters when Chief Lookout was a young man. But today, except for oil der- ricks rooted in the soil, much of the Osage land grows nothing planted by man. Many Indians, enjoying handsome incomes from oil and gas royalties, have built luxurious homes in the three largest towns of Osage County. Lack of improvements and difficulty of ob- taining long-time leases have kept white ten- ant farmers away.

We must go back to the soil so the tribe can live.” Chief Lookout himself lives on a farm 4 miles from Pawhuska. Too modest to call himself a model farmer, he is glad that his two sons uphold the agricultural traditions of the tribe.

Too frequent washing of the hair to get rid of the oil starts a vicious circle, for the oil glands are over-stimulated, the oil flows down the outside of the hair tube instead of down the inside, and, every few days, the poor vic- tim of her own bad judgment feels that she has to wash her hair again. The Olive-Oil Treatment. The cure for such a condition lies in a simple remedy equally good for normal and also for dry hair—something that I am about to prescribe as part of the preshampoo ritual that every woman should adopt. The night before, then, take some good ol- ive oil, heat it as hot as your scalp will bear, © VOGUE The shampoo should be taken every two or three weeks. A liquid preparation should be used, and the drying should be done by natural methods. comb out your hair, divide it into strands, and apply the hot oil to the scalp with a bit of absorbent cotton. Use the oil generously, and don’t try to take it off afterward; just bind up your head in a towel and sleep the © sleep of the just. In the morning, take your shampoo as usu- al. The result will be good, whether your hair has been too oily or too dry. If too dry, the oil has been supplied. If too oily, possi- bly the hard-working little glands fee] that their work has been done for them, and they can take a week off! What Soap?

But, if you haven’t become attached to any of these, you can make a perfectly good substitute by dissolving pure castile soap in hot water and providing your own shampoo solution. This is better than rubbing the cake on the hair, because the roots are reached much more thoroughly. Before applying the soap, it is well to let warm water run through the hair to,remove the surface dust; after this comes the sham- poo solution, rubbed briskly into the scalp with the finger tips, using a sort of wash- board motion. Give particular attention to the edges, and, if it seems difficult to get out all the dirt, use a nail brush to work the lather into the scalp. If the hair is long, it will be necessary to put the shampoo solu- tion on the separated strands, rubbing them together to get a plentiful lather all over. Rinse—And Begin Again. The next step consists in rinsing with hot water—lots and lots of it. The third step? No. Not what you thought at all. The third step is to do it all over, for the second sham- poo is the secret of hair that glistens, as every woman knows by experience, if she has had her hair cared for by a first-class specialist. The second lather will be white and clean., The second hot rinsing water will contain. nothing but soap, as far as you can see. The last rinsing water—warm, not hot— will leave the hair beautifully soft and ready to be squeezed partially dry and finished with a rough towel. The use of cold water in the final rinse is a habit with some women who imagine it is necessary in order to prevent taking cold. This is not the case, however, and the cold rinse seems to leave the hair stiff and harsh. Drying and ‘‘Setting.”’ For the drying process, it is well to have a warm towel ready—preferably a coarse towel of the kind used for the face rather than a Turkish towel, which is apt to scatter lint. A brisk rubbing will be all that short hair needs; for long hair, drying in the sun- light, before a window in the winter, or out- doors in the summer, is the best way to-con- clude the shampoo. Most short-haired women today have adopted the habit of combing and “setting” the hair while it is still wet. One should not need to say that the comb must be scrupuously clean. If the ‘‘setting’’ process does not go easily, a waving fluid may be used, supplemented by clever fingers. (Copyright, 1928.)

Meetings every Wednesday night through Station WBZ at 7:30, Eastern Standard Time The Ring-Tailed Cat. At least half the name of this pretty little animal of the Southwest is appropriate, which is more than can be said of the names of some of our other animals. This little creature has a ringed tail, but it isn’t a cat. It isn’t related to the cat family. Despite this, it is known in various sections as the civet cat, the coon cat and the band-tailed cat. As a matter of fact, it belongs to the racoon family. It is the only animal, with the exception of the common raccoon, with a tail marked with broad, black and white rings. It is about the size of a good-sized house cat, but the body is propor- tionately longer \and more slender. The legs are shorter. The tail is long and ringed alternately black and white, as becomes a relative of Bobby Coon. In Mexico this animal is called the Cacomixtle. It is a beautiful little animal. The head and face are of unusual beauty. In the Southwest the ring-tailed cat frequents the ruined cliff dwellings, while in Mexico it is found among the an- cient ruins. In other sections they are found among rocky ledges, while in Texas it is found in the chaparral, mesquite and cactus plains. It is found as far north as Oregon, on the coast. Its food consists of birds, rats, mice and some varieties of fruit. It is said to make an excellent pet. The Bear and the Hammer. This story comes from New Brunswick and is vouched for as being strictly true. To one who knows our common black bear and his temperament it is not difficult to believe. Fred and his fathér had been out in the woods some distance from the farm cutting cordwood. It began snowing heavily, 80 they ceased work and started for home. By doing so they hung the heavy sledge-hammer, used to drive wedges in splitting the wood, to the limb of a large tree, so that it might not be buried in the snow. A couple of days later they returned to the scene to resume work. As they neared the spot they were startled by some curious sounds—snarls, grunts, thuds and considerable of what seemed like stamping. They were puzzled. It was evi- dent that something unusual was going on just ahead of them. Fortunately, the wind was blowing toward them. Cautiously they crept forward and peered through the ‘bushes. Immediately before them was a full-grown bear busily engaged in boxing with that suspended sledge-ham- mer. It was evident that in passing beneath the hammer the bear had collided with it. Being quick-tempered, he had reared and struck at the obstacle, probably knocking it well up in the air. Before he could pass on the hammer, swinging like a pendulum, came back, and the bear was compelled to cuff it aside again. This placed Bruin in much the same position as the man who seized the bull by the tail—he simply had to keep on with the performance, growing more angry and energetic in his boxing with each return of the sledge-hammer. The bear appeared to be wildly angry with Ris curious foe, cuffing and slapping at the suspended hammer, while giving vent to snarls, whoofs and grunts as he lumbered about on his rear legs in the effort to keep facing his unique foe. He was making such a row over the performance and was 50 comical in his efforts that before they thought what they were doing both men burst into a hearty roar of laughter. The bear was so surprised that he gave a leap past the descending sledge-hammer and dis- peared in the forest, He had shown no lity in his contest with the hammer Ree from ae are up . crow, which sat in the midst of them. from one who takes an interest in the lesser creatures about us. He told it to me as fol- lows: “One Gay as walked along one of the principal streets of Meriden, Conn., I noticed a gray squirrel] on the lawn of a large setate. It seemed to have an abnormally large head and made only a few short hops ata time. I, with sev- erals others who hap- pened to be passing, Stopped to watch the little animal. Then we wee SREr eg discovered that this squirrel was carrying another, which ap- Deared to be either sick or injured. The one being carried was wrapped around the other’s neck. “While we were watching, a dog came sud- denly on the scene and started for the squir- rel, which tried in vain to carry its burden to safety up a tree. At the last minute it was forced to drop its burden, which was grabbed by the dog and dispatched with a shake. None of us had time to interfere. “On examining the victim we found that it had a broken leg. Whether the dog did it or whether the leg was broken previously we could not tell. But I believe its mate was at- tempting to carry this injured one to safety when the dog arrived.” It is customary for a mother squirrel] to. carry her young from place to place in the manner described. I suspected that this was a case of mother and young: However, on further inquiry, my informant stated that he was positive that the victim was fully grown and that it was a case of a squirrel giving first aid to the injured. A Crow Court. The following story of crow justice comes to me from an eyewitness at the scene. Sev- eral similar stories have been sent me and it appears as if there must be in the crow com- munity life something approximating a court of justice. Hereisthe story: . “While strolling through the woods I heard the cawing of a great number of crows. Creeping through the bushes I came to the edge of an open place filled with dry brush ® and treetops, which woodchoppers had left there. crows. All seemed to be interested in one His ere hung low aye his wings were down. a ouch a Se pod ”- ; } { ii caf wn. ‘ag canna ys ote wee. ‘vf : 2 3 Chars ee wh, ro ~ ‘ eit a) Le a F Pie i C These were practically covered with ~ ae ally Sing se At Sec nae eet oe ei cae go . % i= a Na periods. One or two would appear to argue. Then all would begin again. I watched for fully an hour. “Suddenly, all but a few of the birds flew up and fluttered above the one whose head and wings were hanging low, while the others who had remained flew up and perched on nearby bushes. What happened next is al- most unbelievable. The entire flock attacked the poor fellow which sat alone on the brush and tore him to pieces. “T have always regretted that I could not understand the crow language. I should like to know why they killed this crow. Perhaps he was sick, so they put him out of misery. Perhaps he had violated a crow law. As I thought it over, it seemed to me that he must have violated the constitution of crow land.’’ Only the other day I had a similar incident reported. In this case a crow on sentinel duty failed to detect the approach of a gunner. who succeeded in killing two of the flock. The sentinel was afterward killed by his com- panions. And there you are! A Naturalist’s Queston Box. James Buchanan writes: “All winter I kept a large cocoon, hoping to see a moth issue in the spring. Instead a lot of black flies much like common house flies came out. What is the answer?” The answer is parasites. The larvae of the moth was the victim of a parasitie fly before the cocoon was spun. Instead of the cradle of .the’future moth the caterpillar spun its own death chamber. The eggs laid on or beneath its skin by the fly hatched into larvae that promptly ate their host and then went through the great transformation one produced per- fect flies in the spring: Po bats of any use?” pide James /E. we feed almost wholly on age cts © E and ae th chia ain toaeoe ae lim Ber sees

This final blow at the last stand of the well-organized and nomadic bands of card sharpers was revealed at the beginning of the summer exodus from the cities, when rail- roads eugmented ranks of their detective forces with scores of those whose camera eyes had been trained in guarding gangplanks of the ocean greyhounds and who can boast of never forgetting a face once it is filed in men- tal rogues’ galleries. Lean warm-weather months, devoid of ‘‘easy pickin’s,’’ were also indicated by police, arrangements completed by Director of Public Safety William S. Cuth- bert, of Atlantic City, to protect visitors from suave cheats adept at becoming ‘‘one of the party” during hectic hours in night club or cabaret. Startling revelations as to the manner in which the sharper has kept pace with the more daring criminal in perfecting his meth- ods were brought to light recently by Detec- tive George L. Porter through the arrest of one highly polished “racketeer’” whose smart briefcase contained a crimson eyeshade as the newest tool for cheating, while the bottom of his bag of well-used and costly golf clubs formed a cache for a dozen decks of expertly marked cards and a highly complicated me- chanical device known to the gambling fra- ternity as a “‘cooler’’ or “‘holdout,”’ used by the cheat to whisk away the legitimate play- ing cards and substitute a duplicate deck of marked ones. The crimson eyeshade which covered the eyes like a mask remained a mystery, how- ever, until the prisoner, disgruntled because his pals had violated the unwritten law of their world in failing to provide bondsman or lawyer, “‘squawked’’ long and loudly in the form of an expose. * - * - HE playing cards in the golf bag, he ex- plained, had been marked with a lumi- nous ink invisible to the naked eye or under the most powerful magnifying glass and which could not be detected by touch, so flat did it lie upon the polished surface of the card backs. Upon donning the ruby eyeshade, however. the marking upon each card back was plain. “This sharper,’’ said Porter, “later gained his freedom in exchange for information he furnished, which will be of great value and which revealed the astounding progress these cheaters have made in preparing for their merciless raids upon bridge tables of exclu- sive country clubs, where they have gained guest privileges upon the strength of cleverly forged notes of introduction, bearing the names of members usually touring abroad. Smoking compartments of the Pullmans and the club cars usually serve for the introduc- tion of a ‘friendly’ bridge or stud-poker game to relieve the rail journey of its tedium and the victims of their bankrolls. ‘“‘The cheaters of today are of an entirely different school from the old-time steamboat gamblers of tradition, tall and raven-haired, with inscrutable eyes and courtly manner, in their close-fitting broadcloth and diamond studs flashing from ruffled shirt bosom. They are even more different from the later type of flamboyant attire familiar to stage and fic- tion. “These ‘racketeers’ dress in the manner of any prosperous business men, and there is nothing in their speech or actions to mark them apart from stock brokers, doctors or @lawyers. For the club car ‘racket’ they’ll ap- pear with golf stick or tennis rackets, expen- sive hand luggage of pigskin and wearing per- fectly tailored flannels or tweed knickers. “They never work alone on the trains and the ‘mob’ may even include a little gray- haired mother with peppermint drops in her - old-fashioned reticule and a great reluctance that ‘her boy’ should join in a card game. Or it may be a fluffy-haired little ‘bride’ or state- ly lorghette-wielding dowager who will aid in the process of ‘horning in’ where the big money is. Of course, the ‘mob’ js made up of opposites and to all appearances perfect strangers. : “They will appear as losers in the game s0 that the victim may have consolation and s0 that it will not appear too obvious that he has been taken in the manner that Grant took Richmond, only with greater speed. The con- federates are handy, too, in boosting the pot during the moment when the train is nearing its destination, and the dupe is dealt the al- most unbeatable hand of aces full of kings and the limit is lifted as the game is finished to a queen’s taste, or rather to the tune of four queens held by one of the cheaters while the locomotive siren seems to moan, ‘Read ’em an’ weep.’ “For this final round of the ‘friendly poker game’ all of the dupes are dealt excellent hands to assure plenty of action, but, of eourse, the sharper has a hand which tops the others. To make this clean-up absolutely certain, the cheaters do not depend upon any sleight of hand in dealing, but switch the decks, substituting one identical with the cards sold aboard the train or produced by one of the dupes, which is already. stacked for the hands to appear in proper rotation. “It was during our frontier days of the West when a man named Keplinger invented the first ‘cold-decker.’ This was a rather crude affair adjusted to the forearm with s, and the voluminous cuffs worn by the of that day aided tn its operation. 3 early models did not always work si- Jently, and this often resulted in a period be- ing put to the life of a dealer in the form of #@ bullet from the gun of a miner who had been fleeced of his final poke of gold dust.” ‘Detective Porter exhibited some colorful : ae ta iM poate 7 _* : .

You sock it at a hole about the size of a pool pocket, about two furlongs away. And the guy that takes the most socks, why the other guy wins.” Since then Mr, Jack Kearns has been measured for bloomers and has turned in cards of 80 or less; Mr. Leo P.

Whether aircraft that can carry men across the oceans, across the Arctic against the de- most formidable stronghold wastes, even to the North Pole, will surmount the barriers of gale and storm, ice and mountain, that have kept the south polar continent a land of mys- tery will soon be determined by Commander Richard E. Byrd, Capt. Sir Hubert Wilkins, Commander Douglas Jeffery, Royal Navy, retired, and their respective parties. Aviators have great faith in the modern plane, but they know that this task is the ever assigned to it. Antarctic worst in the world. The Byrd expedition starts on its $500,000 venture about the middle of August. Most of the 55 men and virtually all of the elaborate equipment will travel to Dunedin, New Zea- land, aboard the barkentine Samson, although the commander himself plans to leave about a month later. From New Zealand the ex- plorers will steam across the southern ocean to the Bay of Whales, a threshold to Antarc- tica on the Ross Sea barrier, there lish the base of operations. They hope to reach this point by January 1, summer time in the Antarctic. The Wilkins expedition, smaller than Byrd's, plans to leave a California port in Oc- tober, proceeding first to Panama, where it will board a whaler for the long voyage to the Ross Sea, where it, too, will start work. A whaling vessel will bring the little party north when its work is over. Jeffery, a veteran of the last Shackleton ex- pedition to Antarctica, sails south from New York in September, expecting to return in May. He is chartering a ship. Something more than a spirit of adventure, more than a desire to give the airplane an- other strenuous workout, is sending these pio- neers into the most inhospitable region on the globe. The vast south polar continent, near- ly as large as the United States and the mainland of Canada together, is the last great geographieal challenge to science. Buried under a colossal ice cap, it has given only fragmentary interviews to the geologist, me- teorologist, oceanographer, paleontologist, biologist and the other biographers of the planet Earth. Now, however, science is taking to the air and, given good luck, its representatives with the forthcoming expeditions should see and learn more about the Antarctic in a few days than the men of mereoee days saw and learned in years. ~ George hardest weather is the to estab- What Is the Rule of Thumb? Originally the phrase “by the rule of thumb” literally meant measuring with the thumb. In the clothing trade, as well as in carpentry, a thumb or thumb’s breadth was taken to equal one inch. By extension, rule of thumb is used figuratively for any simple and roughly practical method of measure- ment based -on practice and experience rather than scientific knowledge. The term Was so used in the seventeenth century. In 1692 a man named Hope, writing on fencing, said: ‘“‘What he doth, he doth by rule of Thumb, and not by Art.’’ There is a Scotch proverb: “No rule so geod as frule of thumb, if it hit.’”°—The Pathfinder. How Is “Robot” Pronounced? “Robot,” meaning a mechanical device which does the work of men, is correctly pro- nounced “rob-ut,” with the accent on the first syllable. This is the pronunciation adopted by the New York Theater Guild, ee ‘produced the play, “R. U.

Parts of the coast and their immediate hinterlands have been explored rather thoroughly and have yielded valuable data, but the narrow stretches of the far in- terior seen by Amundsen, Scott and Shackle- ton are the only recorded glimpses of the continent’s heart. There Antarctica lies, surrounded and cov- ered by ice—a huge white dome with the South Pole near its center, perched on &a plateau nearly 2 miles high, and the remain- der of its 5,000,000 square miles tapering to the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans.

The ice cap is believed to extend down to the sea at nearly all points. It terminates generally in towering, unscalable ice’ cliffs, from which break huge bergs, covering the ocean with white mountains and closely packed ice that hold ships at bay. Parts of the coast are more accessible than others, and it is from two such _points that the three expeditions purpose to operate. A glance at the map shows two great indentations, or gzulfs—one, Ross Sea, opposite New Zealand; the other, Weddell Sea, across from South America. The Byrd and Wilkins parties plan to launch their aerial assaults on the interior from Ross Sea or, rather, from the ice barrier that chokes more than half of that ocean arm, It was from this barrier that Amundsen and Scott started on their trips to the pole. Jeffery expects to attack from the shore of Weddell Sea, and will therefore be across the continent from the other two leaders. The three zones of flight, as mapped in ad- vance, will hardly overlap, if at all. Byrd plans to fly eastward over what is called King Edward VII Land; in addition, of course, he will attempt a flight to the South Pole, which Amundsen and Scott reached after laborious sledge journeys. Sir Hubert proposes an eastward flight along the unmapped, unseen coast between Ross Sea and Grahams Land, the western boundary of Weddell Sea. He does not con- template a hop to the pole. Jeffery’s effort will start from a base on the west coast of Grahams Land. He plans to do his exploring eastward to Coats Land, which lies on the other side of Weddell Sea. He may also try a trip to the pole and across the conti- nent to Ross Sea.

GEORGE CARMICHAEL marched confidently up the broad Park avenue pavement without the least idea that his entire char- acter was ebout to be wrecked. No,.he would have regretted the ruin of his character, but he wouldn’t have been excited about it or have fled or had mas- culine hysterics or have written himself a prescription for a quart of whisky. His nerves, since ht was a nerve specialist, a neu- rologist, were under perfect control—like the swirling line of a crack fly fisher checked by a thumb on the reel just at the proper mo- ment. Dr. George Carmichael’s amazing compos- ure had been a well-developed trait for years, ’ Even a World War didn’t excite him very ~ much. At Grandpre, at the edge of the Ar- ~~ gonne Forest, he was decorated for indiffer- ~ ence to danger and for maintaining the mo- rale of his men. He had simply pointed out =. to them the conclusive nature of shells. If . they missed you, you needn’t worry, and if they hit you, you couldn’t—something like that. George had that ability even then. He was not clever, but he was calm, and people could tell him their troubles, take hold of his hand, and believe in Santa Claus if he asked them to. Renowned specialists taugkt him in Vien- na, Germany, Paris and Johns Hopkins. He =~ did five years’ research at the New York Post- . graduate and Bellevue Hospitals. Then he took an office on Park avenue and allowed himself to be discovered by all the suicidal brokers and bored, nerve-shredded matrons in town. He had satisfactory proportions, brown hair, gray eyes, a mouth at rest, and that atmosphere of soap, water and almost anti- septic linen, which, taken tcegether with the prescription privilege, makes his profession £0 charming. Socially he was considered ex- cellent scientific background. Romantically, being endowed with so much discouraging control, he was considered impossible—in spite of which a diehard mother had decoyed him the previous evening to the Colony Club ballroom, full of young things. But even she gave up when he told her that her daughter had St. Vitus’ dance. Her daughter’g name was Lucy. Lucy doesn’t matter, hcewever. Becky Wooster is the one who matters—Becky * Wooster, lying in her blue bed in her pale yellow bedroom at 12 noon. Becky was one ’ of the young things in that ballroom, too, al- though in point of experience she was not so , young a8 some of the others (if one may say ~s0 without reflecting on a nice girl). This ' was the end of Becky’s second season and she was faced with the immediate problem of marrying somebody, not anybody, but very particularly somebody—say, for example, the at least well-dressed Son of an aged and rap- idly failing earl or the smoothed third gen- eration of an impressive packing house for- tune. It was no more than her mother had a right to expect. Or what price society? _. §o our Becky was just the usual little so- i¢lety tramp, ready to be a good soldier now >and pay for her fun. With the proper back- Ing she might have been a movie star, be- ‘ cause she had—oh, all those things. Her _ soft hair ended in a little knot in back. She ~. had two very large, dark and moist eyes in “her one small piquant face, and she had nothing which did anything but enhance the effect of those possessions. But this morning, or this noon, she felt especially dissatisfied and unhappy, and she lay there wondering what was the matter. Perhaps she needed. a new hat or a new ex- perience. Something had happened, and she couldn’t quite put her finger on just what it was. She couldn’t remember who the man was. The door into her dressing room was ajar, and she heard her mother’s voice in there talking clothes with some ladies who had come early for luncheon, Becky recognized Mrs. Culbertson, the partridge, and then Mrs. Riddle, the parrot, ‘‘Well, I don’t know what I’m going to do with Julia, my dears. She'll have nothing but Paquin models, and of course in her condition we have to humor her because—oh, yes, she’s better—but it was a real breakdown, and if all our girls keep on having breakdowns—well .. .” ~ Becky muttered. That Julia Riddle was as .-healthy as a channel swimmer. Becky didn’t _ care very much for Julia Riddle. Julia *had “an annoying way of thinking of good ideas “first, and if Julia had a nervous breakdown there was something more in it than the mere pleasure of staying in bed. How the Riddle chattered! = “Well, it might have been very, very ser- fous with Julia, my dears, but she’s having ‘4marvelous care. Oh, he’s too wonderful! The poor child picks up and gains color the minute g, he enters the room. What? You haven’t neard of Dr. Carmichael? I can hardly believe you. »Everybody ig having him, my dear.” - Becky sat up and pounded her pillow in a “fage. “Of course! Julia Riddle thought of it first. That schemer! Well, she would!” She thought of Julia’s innocent Mediterranean blue eyes, and all was clear, She even knew why she herself had awakened with that queer rebellion in her little powder-box soul ‘against marrying either aristocrats or pluto- crats. * * * Last night at the party she had maneuvered to make an older, uncomfortable- looking man think he had cut in upon her— just for a lark. But it wasn’t a lark. He’d no sooner touched her than she was ready to ~ an out, as she said, for a dime, or whatever @6had. They just seemed to fit, and that’s Becky knew about it.

Becky Wooster,” ghe’d told him. got a pencil to pet that down?” Becky's father was fond of felling her that he’d succeeded by perfecting other men’s original ideas. “If you can’t do a thing first,”” he always said, “‘do it better.”” And Becky decided to do it better. She certainly ought to be able to do a better nervous break- down than Julia Riddle could. She could col- lapse at the Ritz if necessary. Just to see how it would feel, she put her- self in the nervous-breakdown frame of mind, and her knees immediately became weak and uncontrollable and she was conscious of a desire to kick eff the covers and burst into tears, or something. If the thing was as easy as that, she might as well begin. Becky drew her hair back from her forehead in a manner calculated to make her look ghastly. She twisted her body into an awkward posi- tion. She gripped the edges of her mattress desperately. And then—she screamed. . . George knew, as he entered the side door of his office, that Miss Quinn was dipleased with him. She always nibbled her lips when she was displeased, and she immediately ac- cused him of having been wasting his time with that drunken, penniless, malingering Capt. Morse. “‘He needs a powerful osteopath rather than a neurologist,”’ she declared. “And all the time your phone has been ringing with a really serious call from the family of a young, beautiful and prominent girl (Miss Quinn read the society page) whose mind may be saved by your prompt attention.’’ “All right,” said George feebly. get a bite of lunch and “You'll get no lunch,” said Miss Quinn. “Wooster, Forty-nine East Seventy. I'll phone that you’ll be there in five minutes.” He was a little unprepared for Becky, al- though she could not be said to be unpre- pared for him. She was sitting up against the pillows in a yellow bed jacket. and with enough aroused or applied color in her cheeks to do much for her eyes—and her hair, of course, was softly about her face. ‘‘Hello,’”’ said Becky brightly as he came in and sat down on the edge of her blue bed. That was one of his gestures in winning confidence, but he did not feel as confident as usual of himself in this case. “I suppose you were up very late last night on a party, young lady,” he suggested pleasantly. *“*Yes,”’ said Becky. “What time did you get home?” His mystification was a blow. “Don’t you even remember me? I’m the one you took the cocktail from. I think the shock of being urged to have one less instead of one more is what gave me this flop.’ ‘‘Well, then, I’m going to take cocktails from you for a long time,” he said. “‘Do you smoke? Let’s have a cigarette.” ‘“‘Yes,” said Becky, “lets do. And then I want to hear all about you, doctor. They tell me you’re marvelous, but cold’ You don’t look so cold. You don’t look especially marvelous either, but I suppose you are.” George peered at her closely. ‘“‘What time was it you had this collapse, Miss Wooster?” Still, he was familiar with a little initial bravado on the part of some patients—the hardest kind usually. He took out a clinical thermometer and a stethoscope just to put her in her proper place. ‘“‘Now you're going to do the telling about yourself,” he said, “while I go through the motions of listen- ing to you breathe and hearing your heart beat.”’ “Fine,” said Becky. ‘“‘Where shall I be- gin, whooping cough or measles? Realism or romance?” ‘Realism, please, including romance. This is your chance to tell your secrets and be sure they won’t get out. Treat me like an older brother whose escapades have been s0 notorious that you don’t mind telling him the worst of yours.” ‘All right,” she agreed. “You can be my big brother George. And I’m Becky.” It isn’t ethical to go into that confidence of Becky’s. It is enough to say that it was an amazing piece of eager self-revelation that fairly took George’s breath, and it last- ed for an hour and a half. He forgot all about his stethoscope and returned to the present only when the flowing detail of her vivid and unrestrained narrative arrived at last night’s party at the Colony: “Well,” he said, “all things considered, I think you’ve been a pretty good little sport. Pretty active, too. You ought to be healthy. Now, if you don’t like the Honorable Stack- poole or the gilded youth from Omaha, we'll have to tell your family to stop bothering you about them. Besides that farmer boy, when you were 16, then, you’ve never been really in love?” ? ; Becky hesitated. ‘‘Well, maybe I’ve been holding out on you, George. Maybe I’m what might be called in love—now.” ‘“‘Yes?’? George’s neurological] hunter’s in- stinct sighted the quarry at last. “And per- haps the man doesn’t return your affection?” “He doesn’t seem to,” said Becky sadly. “Does he even know you love him?” “Apparently not.’ “Just what makes you think you do love him?” Becky lowered her gaze. for it, George.” “All right, Becky,” he said, “I will. We'll get to work on this love affair of yours the next time I see you. I’m glad you told me.” “TI hoped you’d be glad,” she said, ‘Oh, that’s right; you forgot to listen to me breathe,”’ . George counted her pulse three times, The longer he held her wrist in his powerful fingers the more rapid became her pulse, Yes, just what he’d thought, going on her nerve. Collapse again if he didn’t watch out. He put his stethoscope over her heart and listened to its sudden throbbing. He bent down his ear to make sure, and over the top of his brown head Becky’s lips made an unashamed “T’ll just “Take my word little kiss in the air. “Is that stethoscope supposed to tell all about a person’s heart?” she n-scinasd as he was leaving. **Yes,”” he said. “Well, you'd better get a new one, George. Good-by. ‘” “Very peculiar case, Miss Wooster’s,” he explained to Miss Quinn. “She’s told me everything, a very astonishing everything, if you will. ebhan me, Miss Quinn. But she absolutely refuses to talk about the man she’s ” dove with, Echo mid ie, it becee kind of a brain doctor I ought to be able to find out for myself, Of course, that is impossible. I’m thinking of giving up the case and turn- ing her over to Dr, McAusland.”’ “I fear that would bring on a relapse, doc- tor.” There was a germ of justice in Miss Quinn’s secret conviction that she was the brains of the office. ‘“‘Perhaps the case of that young Miss Riddle will give you a clue,” she suggested. George waved Julia Riddle’s case aside as a simple matter, “There is no similarity,” he said. ‘Miss Riddle is a young hypo- chondriac who would be completely cured by a proposal of marriage from any accredited suitor, Miss Wooster, on the othér hand, has the one-man mania and, if you will pardon me again, Miss Quinn, she doesn’t care a hang about marriage. Such love, you know, while we class it with other curable nervous disorders, is in addition a phenomenon upon which psychology has never quite put its fin- ger. Its amazing ability to distort the nor- mal process of ratiocination remains a mystery. If I were ever in love, Miss Quinn, I should have myself confined in a sanatorium as a’comparative danger to society. “Yes, it would be the best place for you,” said Miss Quinn. George's daily visits brought him no nearer the clearing up of Becky's case than he had been the first day. In fact, he would not know for some time how near he was to clearing it up that first day. As it was, how- ever, Becky’s wearing a new bed jacket or “Now, if | were you I would go home tonight, pack a suit case, go to this man’s te a eee ee a ee ee ee “T didn’t expect you to,” said Miss Quinn. Her lips had been nibbled so much of late that they appeared swollen. ‘Well, there’s the telephone again.” And after a pause, “Yes, she wants to speak to you personally, Doctor.”’ * He took the receiver. ‘Where are you, Becky? At Sherry’s? And you say you know you’re going to collapse? That’s non- sense. Remember what I told you to do when you have that feeling * * * Qh, yes, of course I'll come. I'll be right down. George |'wagged his head apd frowned, “You see, I feel such a responsibility for this patient, Miss Quinn, I suppose I really should have kept her in bed.”’ “Yes, I feel that her condition would have been less dangerous if she had remained in bed,”’ said Miss Quinn. George didn’t like Miss Quinn’s attitude lately. She was in a perverse, nasty humor, especially sarcastic and cryptic if any of his patients happened to ask to speak to him per- sonally on the telephone, Of course it was rather upsetting not to know when he went downstairs to his office dn the morning whether he was going to end up in Hoboken, at the Aquarium, in the Met- ropolitan Museum, in the loge box of some moving-picture palace, or at Roslyn, Long Island, His patient, Miss Wooster, had the strangest ideas of things to do, and almost invariably she became so nervous at some stage of her daily adventures that she had to send for her doctor to get her safely home, She was waiting for him now at a corner table ins Sherry’s, and George had to admire her pluck in controll- ing herself until his arrival. “If you keep on like this you'll soon be a well girl, Becky. Oh, haven't you ordered your luncheon? Too upset? Well, better let me order it then, and I'll pick up a bite also. What, you’re going to let go and cry now apartment and trust to luck.” peignoir every time he saw her, and appear- ing, to tell the truth, the picture of health, did not deceive him. He knew all that was no more than a deceptive surface indication and that her true and alarming condition was shown by her consuming excitement which did not even abate while he was trying to soothe her. The wonder was that her body had withstood the strain, and, of course, it wouldn’t for long. “This can’t go on, Becky,”’ he warned her, holding her fingers in his—as another little gesture in winning confidence. ‘You'll get no release until you give me a chance to straighten you out about the fellow you think you love. How do you know I might not be able.to do something to get him for you?” “I don’t think that would work, George,” she said hopelessly. A round tear rolled out of her eye and down her nose. “I really couldn’t ask you to do that much for me. Just sit here as you are and don’t talk and let’s not worry about it any more today.” So George just™Bat there and allowed his gaze to wander from Becky’s eyes, which were so remarkably cool and deep and un- strained for one in such a serious condition, ti big bowl of sesso roses on her bed table. Finally he rose a go. “I’ve decided to change our treatment, Becky,” he said. “I think you’d better get up and go about just as you usually do. Go to Pierre’s for lunch- eon and then up Madison avenue and buy yourself a dress. Do something like that every day.” Becky sat up with interest. myself, George. Not the first. time, anyway. I might faint. You’ll probably have to go with me the first time.’’ : “What!” George caught himself being startled. But he finally compromised with her by agreeing to go this very day. Downstairs George rather timidly but with firm voice telephoned his office. ‘“‘How many are waiting, Miss Quinn? Only eight? Well, I can’t very well leave this patient now. It’s quite an emergency. Ask Miss Riddle if she can’t come in after luncheon. About 3:30.” “Do you expect Miss Wooster to live through the day, Doctor?” inquired Miss Quinn. ‘Her friend, Miss Riddle, _ ds sO anxious to know.” The next few weeks made it perfectly plain that Dr. George Carmichael’s character was doomed. His famous, soothing com- posure seemed to have disintegrated com- pletely, and he would jump, like the most suicidal of his broker patients, at the slight- est sound, even when the telephone bell rang. He even began calling his patients by each other’s names. He was forever dropping his stethoscope, and once he came within an eyelash of poking his clinical thermometer in’ old Mrs. Burkhardt’s eye. Several of his patients deserted’ him, and even Capt. Morse went over to Dr. McAusland, the only happy circumstance, as Miss Quinn said, in this en- tire debacle, — | “If it weren’t for deserting some of my faithful patients, Miss Quinn,” said the doctor, “I’d go away and take a rest.” To which Miss Quinn replied unsympathet- ically: “But I understood you to say that under these circumstances you would con- “Not all by fine yourself to a sanitarium. re i os you, Miss Raine," ne that I’m here?

You know what’s the matter with me, and no doctor can do anything for it.’’ “Hello! What a surprise this is!” The voice came from beside their table, and George rose. ‘‘This beats an office consulta- tion forty ways. Congratulations, Becky.” George felt very nervous himself just then, and it was all he could do to restrain him- self from diving through Sherry’s window out upon Park avenue, Vaguely he was aware of asking Miss Riddle to join them at lunch- eon and receiving a sharp kick under the table, Julia, fortunately, had _ already lunched. Can’t help it, George,” safd@ Becky when Julia had gone. “She makes me more nery- ous than anything, If she’d been my patient, I’d have prescribed strychnine. Or maybe arsenic. Which is quicker, George, strych- nine or arsenic? I’m feeling very, very nerv- ous again, George, Don’t you think a little trip through the park in your car would help?” The park, however, proved entirely too small and stuffy for a really restful drive, and they just drifted on up along the river without much thinking about it. On the way back George decided it was time for Becky to have some nourishment, and they stopped at a little place near Tarrytown for eclairs and tea. Afterward they walked out upon the lawn of the tea place and found a bench where they could sit and watch, far down below and in the lavender haze of evening, the peace- ful Hudson streaming, as Becky said, on its way into town from Albany. There was nothing hurried or nervous about the Hud- son, at any rate, and it put a spell of calm and silence upon them, Presently, in a furry, husky little voice which George didn’t quite recognize, Becky interrupted it. “I give up,” she said. *“*‘Take me home, George, and I don’t think I’ll call for your services again in a long time. There’s no use going on with this. I know when I’m beaten.” “T don’t blame you,” said George, “I think I’ve somehow lost my grip, Becky. You’d better try MeAusland.”’ “Be serious, George,’ she said. ‘‘No more foolin’. I don’t need McAusland any more than Julia Riddle needed you. You know what I do need, George, and since I can’t have it, I’m not going to play in this little life game any more, I guess I’tl go to— Paris. Or maybe, for Dad’s sake and general He took her That almost family solvency, I'll let that packer’s grand- son take me to Omaha.

I believe life will fail with you ifeypu dagp’t get that man. What are you willing to do to try it?” “I’ve already done everything I could, George—more than any but a desperate girl would dv.

Is he married?” "Is there any reason why he couldn’t marry? “Not a reason in the world.” “Is he honorable?” ~ “Painfully.” ¢ “Is he clever or brilliant?’’ “He’s supposed to be, but I’ve failed to detect any signs of it.’’ “Is he—handsome?”’ “The nicest thing about him is that he’ll never know how handsome he really is.” “And you do love him intensely?” On the point of laughing, Bécky burst into tears. “Stop it, George. I can’t—stand it. If there is a price I can pay, just name it, and I'll pay it.’’ It took ten minutes to do away with the tears, and*then George went on: “Becky, I’m banking on the fact that you’re the loveliest, dearest, most desirable girl in the world and that this man, although I doubt it, is fairly human, Now if I were you, I would go home tonight, pack a suit case, go to this man’s apartment, and trust to luck. I would go to Paris with him. And, Becky, believe me, IL will be with you every minute of the time spiritually.”’ “TI should hope you would, George.” “Then you're going to do it?” “If that’s what you want me to do, George, I'll do it.” “Of course,” he said, ‘“‘I shall have to get your father’s consent, But I can perhaps make him see that it is life or living without life for you.” “Leave Dad to me,” said Becky. “Dad is a thorough sport. I promise to tell him.” George had three appointments at his of- fice after dinner that eveningeHe paced back and forth in his waiting room before the first one arrived, frowning, muttering, grippng and relaxing his long fingers. The telephonc rang, and he _ seized it, shouting “‘Hello”’ three times before the astonished patient on the other end of the line could say he would be a few minutes late. Miss Quinn, watching him narrowly, ob- served that he was not quite himself this evening. ‘‘You’re worse than the worst of your patients, Doc- tor.” **Yes,”’ he said, “‘that’s the frony of it—the stone blind leading the merely afflicted with astigmatism, I think I shall give up my practice, Miss Quinn.” Miss: Quinn marched across the room and led him into a chair. ‘“‘Now listen here, George Carmichael. You know what you are? You’re a common, ordinary, nervous wreck. \Now, you stop this nonsense and tell me what it’s all about.”’ “T’ve sent her away,” said George meekly. “I’ve sent her to Paris with another man.,’’ “Then you’re not only a nervous wreck but a maniac as well,” she said. “If she couldn’t get to the Aqua- rium and back without you, how is she going to get to Paris?’’ “She'll be well and happy.”’ “Happy!” Miss Quinn shook him by the shoulder. She probably would have beaten him, but the door opened just then, and a tall, elderly, golf-tanned gentleman came in. He was not the expected patient. His name was Wooster, and he wanted to talk with Dr. Carmichael. George took him into the office and al- lowed him to begin. “I just wanted to get a good look at you, Carmichael,” he said, ‘‘and I haven’t a gun in my pocket, either. Becky’s been talking to me and, although I can’t un- derstand why the thing must be done this The Pyrenees have been conquered at last by the steam engine. The first railroad to be built over the ‘ mountain barrier be- tween Spain and France has been open- ed for passenger and freight. Railroads have circled the flanks where the Pyrenees dip into the sea, but never before have they broken through the line. By joining the vil- lage and railhead of Bedous on the Frencn side to the village and railhead of Jaca on the Spanish side, 57 miles away, engineers have established di- rect communication between Spain and France. The travel distance between Paris and Madrid is shortened, and § Pau, the French mountain resort, is brought 253 miles nearer Bar- celona. As an international backyard fence, the Pyrenees range is unequaled, the National Geographic Society points. out. For 250 miles its peaks rise like pickets. Armies from both sides that have challenged the natural boundary have soon come to grief. But the purposes of peace time are not served by a fence without a gate, so the railroad has been built at one of the lowest passes, where the Pyrenees drop down to 5,000 feet. The whistle of a locomotive echoing among. the hills announces that Francé and Spain can trade with one another more readily. The new railroad follows an old trail. Until the trains enter the main tunnel they run beside the modern motor road from Pau to Saragossa, n Marvelous views on both sides of the divide already draw many tourists to the Somport — Pass, as it is called: The beauty is the stark beauty of the mountains in the American West, but gardened by an old-established farmers. — race of The Fg ng up D whose alley the route runs, Pedestal ER lei ASE ah le tt iN ea way, I won’t oppose it.

Nobody’s g0- ing to get Becky who doesn’t think as much of her as I do.” “““My recommendation is daring, I'll admit, Mr. Wooster,” said George. “I will have to accept responsibility for Becky’s happiness. This plan is her one chance to get it. She’s A to have the only man she ever loved or Ww se “That’s pretty cool coming from you, Doc- tor. But she seems as confident as you are. You young people have strange ideas, but they can’t work any worse than ours have. I really just wanted to see what you were like.” He rose. “Good night. Your name is George? Well, good-by, George. Of course I hold you responsible.” “That is the liability of my profession, Mr. Wooster. But if Becky loves a man like ‘that, don’t you think he must be fairly all rig ht?” “Well, I'll be damned!” said Mr. Wooster, and stalked out of the office. There was a note from Miss Quinn on the waiting-room desk that she had cancelled the appointments. “And you go to bed,” said the note. But George didn’t. He sat there for an hour and a half with his face in his hands. Then he put on his hat and went out and walked to Madison avenue and One Hundred and Tenth street. Then he took a taxi and went home to his apartment, on the floor above his office. It was after 11. Then he began to worry. “Suppose some day he should beat her,’ he said. ‘Well, Lord help the man who beats Becky. But he might desert her. Has no sense, anyway. Suppose he didn’t give her everything she wanted. Maybe I should not have let her go.”” After a few minutes he said, “I should not have let you go.”” After a few minutes more he said, “I can’t let you go, Becky.” And after that he raced around the room saying nothing but “Becky!” and trying to find the telephone. Her father answered and just said that Becky had gone. ‘“‘Just left, Doctor.”’ George ran downstairs and jumped into the first taxicab he could halt.. ‘‘Where to?” Well, where to? That was the question. He had to stop her, though. Well, how could he stop her when he didn’t know the man’s name, much less his address? Then he had an idea. Why hadn’t the thought of it months ago? But it wouldn’t have been fair. : He jumped from his cab at a drugstore corner and asked to use their telephone. He found a number and called it. ‘“‘Mrs. Rid- dle’s residence? Miss Riddle; please. Hello, Miss Riddle? This is Dr. Carmichael. Sorry to have got you up. Would you be so. kind as to tell me who Becky Wooster is in love with? Hello! Hello! Apparently Julia Riddle had banged the receiver on its hook. At 2 o'clock the remnants of a once im- perturbable man returned to his apartment, dragging hig feet heavily up the one flight of stairs. He went into his living room and stared about him as though he were drunk, He even swayed unsteadily and imagined ridiculous things such as that there was a girl’s hat and topcoat lying on a chair and that a just detectable fragrance of perfume was in the air. His hallucinations became } more aud more serious. Soon he could have sworn that the door into his own room opened and that there was Becky in some- thing long and pale yellow which reached all the way to the floor. Becky’s ghost smiled uncertainly and said plainly, ‘“‘Well, here I am, George.” Then Becky’s ghost came right up to him and stretched its arms up around his neck, and he’d never had the faintest idea that a ghost’s arms were anything like that. It is hard to convince a man like George that a girl like Becky loves him, but she did. Becky had a genius for convincing the man she loved that she loved him, although she did need some small] degree of cooperation. On the other hand, it wasn’t necessary for him to break her in pieces just to prove that he’d wanted to do so for two months. But things sometimes happen that way. _That was only one small thing that they had to explain to each other as they sat there, and there were so many things. It is doubt- ful that they could have explained them all in what little remained of that night. It is also doubtful that they considered it worth while —hbut, on the other hand, there is nothing to prove that they didn’t. (Copyright, 1928.)

The smart toilettes which eontributed to the interest at Longchamp, Chantilly and Auteuil are now being worn at Deauville and Le Touquet. The buying being done in Paris by the retail trade is chiefly by tardy holiday seekers for warm weather wear or by tourists who are selecting early models for fall wear at home. Sports clothes naturally are at the front of the list. And scarfs, triangular ones in tri- colors in particular, are at the front of the sports clothes. Sometimes they are stitched to the dress. Otherwise they are worn with the knot on one shoulder and are held with a ring through which both ends are slipped. * One of the newest ideas in sports clothes is the wearing of a light skirt with a jumper and sports hat darker in tone. A beige skirt is worn with a brown jumper and hat while a navy blue jersey sweater and navy felt hat are completed by an all-white skirt. Panamas have made their reappearance for sports hats. The new cloches have a short brim in front which widens appreciably on the sides. Some of the hats now beihg worn are simply enormous. Basque Linens Used For Beach Dresses Paris (A.P.).—Basque linens, rather coarse linen with vivid stripes, are known to the dining tables of Americu but they are now being used in Paris for dresses for beach wear. Bags, sandals and hats are also shown in this material with its broad’ red and green or yellow and blue stripes...

Then, since it was easy to count the number of heads (or, as in the common phrase, the noses), poll meant and still means the total number of persons. The natural step from. this was to use the word to name the list of people against whom a poll tax was levied—and, since it is often a rule that one can not vote unless he has paid his poll tax, and also by association with the idea of counting heads, poll came to mean the register of eligible voters in a given locality.

C., JULY 29, 1928, a Junior Post Offers Prize Money For Poems, Articles and Drawings Dear Post Boys and Girls: August is about here and with it comes heightened vacation joys, har- vest moons and other pleasant things of summer. The Junior Editor can use more poems, drawings and stories about how you have spent your vacations. Many subjects must have been suggested to you and you should turn them into good material for the Junior Post. Do not hesitate about sending in too much material. The Junior Post eats up a lot of copy every Sunday. Be sure and have your matter original, how- ever, and write or draw in ink only on one side of the paper. Stories sent in written on both sides of the paper will not appear, for they are at once thrown into the trash basket. Do not send in application blanks for your membership pins until after your story, poem or drawing bas ap- peared. Some boys and girls send in the applications with their entries. That only makes ‘rouble for the Junior Post editor and her assistants, and does . mot mean that you will get your pins quicker. The Junior Artists are working hard for the scholarship prize offered by Mr. Felix Mahony. It seems as if it is go- ing to be difficult to choose the winner, 60 many excellent drawing are being received. ; Remember there is a special prize of $1 each week for the best poem and another prize of $61 for the best story used. This does not mean, however, that the prizes will necessarily be awarded each week. The prizes are ready if any boy or girl sends in mate- rial good enough to win them. August is a month of history and a special book prize will be given for the best story, not more than 500 words long, sent in by August 10 on “The =awetle of Bladensburg and the Burning of the Capitol. and the White House.” Those were heartrending and historic days in the annals of the National Cap- ital, and they teach a fine lesson in the value of. preparedness. One dollar will be given for the best suggestion how to improve the Junior Post received by August 15. Put on your thinking caps and tell us how you »would make the Junior Post better if you were the editor in charge of it. We are always ready to hear worth- while suggestions. That is the way to make a paper grow and become even more valuable. EDITOR JUNIOR POST, The Secret Room. (Honorable Mention.) One rainy day Johnny and Bill were playing in the cellar. Johnny had brought his train down- stairs and they were having a fine time: Suddenly they heard a door bang. Bill said he would go and see if the back door was locked. He went and looked, but found it was closed tight. “T’ll look at the other door,” said Johnny. But that door was closed tight. “Isn't that strange?” said John- ny. “I was sure I heard a door bang.” They began to play again, but soon they heard a door bang again. “I know I heard a door bang that time,” gaid Johnny, and both boys ran to look at the doors. But both doors were very tight. ‘That surely is strange,” said Bill. “I bet I know what it ts,” said Johnny. “I heard my grandfather say some- thing one time about this house having a secret room. Perhaps that is the door of the room that we heard banging.” They forgot to feel around the walls of the cellar. The boys looked and looked, and still they could not find anything that might help. Just then Johnny screamed. He had touched something which made a part of the cellar wall move. As they looked into the darkness they saw a small room. “Get your flashlight quick,” called Bill. They flashed the light In the room and, sure enough, there was a door banging open and shut. “Wait until father sees this room,” said Johnny. “I think I'll use it for a playroom. Can’t we have lots of fun in it, though, Bill? Come, let us tell mother about it and tell father when he comes home.” HAZEL GIBSON (age 13). P. O. Box 4810, Benning road northeast. Spirit of the Wild Rose In a garden, fair and sweet, Growing at the rose’s feet, Was a Wild Rose, pale in hue, Living through life with nothing to do. Into this garden there chanced to wander A child, and fell just over yonder. The Rose opened and forth there came A Spirit of unknown fame, Over to the child she flew And put to the child’s lips a bottle of magic dew. The child arose with strength anew, So the Rose was satisfied, for it had had something to do. MARY FRANCES McGLOON-WELCH, (Age 11 years.) Ps Pa Rescues His Chum From Quicksand (Awarded $1 Prize.) Jack and Henry were great friends Jack was 11 years old and Henry was & year younger. These two boys were always together. “I love him like a brother,” Jack told his mother. One very hot day tn July, both boys got permission to go swimming down at the “ole swimmin hole.” This small pool was located near the mouth of the creek that ran through the village of Mayfair. It had been discovered by some boys of the neigh- borhood. It was known to all the boys in the town as the “neighborhood pool.” , This pool was at least a mile from Jack's and Henry's home. It was rather a hot walk on a warm July day, but—-think of the coolness afterward. The two boys trudged down the dusty road. They each had a box of lunch, so they would not have to worry about getting home for it. “Gee, it’s a hot day.” exclaimed }Henry, wiping the perspiration from his face. “I'll say it is,” added Jack, “but we are almost to the pool now. Oh, boy, I can hardly wait to get in that water.” “There it is now,” said Henry point- ing ahead. “So it ts,” replied Jack, “let’s race there, bet I'll beat you.” “All right,” agreed Henry. “One, two, three, go!” Both boys ran with all their might, getting hotter and hotter as they ran. At last they reached their goal, both at the same time. “A tle!" shouted both boys breathlessly. “Kind of hot work for a day like this,” said Jack, with a laugh. “We had better cool off a little, be- fore we go In,” said Henry as he saw his chum already starting to get undressed. “Mother said that it wasn’t good for any one to get in cool water when they were hot.” “That's right, I guess we had better,” said Jack. In less than ten minutes though, both boys were cooler and ready to dive in. Jack dove in first, went under and came up again. “Come on ‘Hen,’” he called, “}t’s great." “Splash!” Henry also dived, he went under, several seconds passed, but he did not come up. Jack called him, once, twice, no an- swer. He called a third time, this time Henry slowly came up with a queer look on his face. “What’s the matter Jack. “I'm stuck,” replied Henry. “Stuck in the mud I guess, can’t seem to get my feet loose, I am sinking, the water is only to my waist now, but if I sink much farther the water will be over my head.” Henry really was frightened. “Here take my hand,” “maybe I can pull you out.” “No, go back” cried Henry, “if you come any closer, you'll get stuck, too.” Jack said no more, but scrambled out of the water. “Keep on trying to pull yourself out,” he said. “I will go hunt for a stick or something that you can catch hold of. Jack hurriedly began searching the ground for something with which to help his friend. “A branch of a tree would do,” he thought to himself. But that would have taken too long to get. As he stood wondering what to do, he looked down on the ground and there was an old piece of rope. “Just the thing,” he cried. Quickly he tied a bowline as he-had learned from a Boy Scout. A bowline is a loop large enough to go around a per- son's body, but doesn’t slip. It Is easier to catch hold of by the person in the water as it doesn’t slip through the hands. Jack ran quickly back to the pool. “Here, Henry, catch this,” he com- manded. The water was almost to Henry's neck now. “You had better put it around your waist if you can,” said Jack. Henry did so after much time. Then Jack to pull. “The mud's up to my knees,” said Henry, who was crying now. “Never mind,” said Jack, “I'll get you out.” He then began pulling with all his strength. “Keep on pulling Jack,” said Henry, “you have pulled me out a lot already.” It took at least fifteen minutes or more of hard pulling to get Henry out of the mudhole, but finally he was rescued. ‘Hen?’” asked said Jack, ne for me yet awhile” “I’ve been in that water all I today more said “Let’s eat our lunch and then go home” suggested Jack, “we can come here some other time.” “Say, Jack,” said Fenry after a min- ute’s pause, “w ought to put sqgme sort n we fix it I wonder,” ques- . “Take a f ’ HOW ARE YOU SPENDING YOUR VACATION? —V—— meee ee eee - ws ‘@ >. | Age 14.

It was only 1 o'clock when the two boys walked home tw- gether tired from the struggle in the mudhole, but glad that Henry had been saved. “Jack,” said Henry, when they were almost home, “‘you saved my life, and I'll never forget it. You are the best friend I ever had. There's lots of truth in the old saying, ‘a friend in need is a friend indeed.’ ” FRANCES MARSHALL (age 12). 2000 H St. N. W. Why There Are Light- ning Bugs. (Honorable Mention.) At the close of a fine summer's day the queen of the fairies called a meet- ing of all the fairies and flowers. She had called this meeting to dis- cuss the plan of having some lights. The queen said that she didn’t think it was nice to have the young fairies and flowers going around on the streets after dark without any lights. All agreed that they needed some lights, but that they didn’t know where they were. going to have them. Every one set to work tying to find a plan so that they could have some lights. ° Finally one fairy popped up and said that she had a good plan, so every one was real quiet while the fairy laid her plan out before them—and this was the She thought the queen could chcose some fairy to go to the king of the bugs and ask him to ask all the bugs which one would like to go out at night and carry little lanterns around through the dark streets, so that they could guide the little fairies and flow- ers home at night. All the fairies and flowers agreed that this would be the best plan. So the queen chose a fairy and sent her on her journey. The next night the fairy was to come back. All of the fairies and flowers assembled tn the queen’s palace to wait for the fairy. About 9 o’clock the fairy came back said that the king had consented. e asked all the bugs and a good many promised to go out and help the queen. - When the bugs arrived the queen gave each one a lantern and that very night the bugs went out —_. a terns.

Thero in which he stood was filled with almost every conceiy- able luxury; a dozen servants could be summoned at a word; a whole kingdom adored him. Yet he gazed wistfully at a group of children tumbling about in a meadow..

Next time you hear a soul-stirring piece, see if it doesn’t seem to tell a story. With your imagination it will mot be difficult. Because he so beautifully played the harp, David enchanted King Saul.

I walked until I came to a”“big rock and, being very tired, I sat down on the rock to rest. I fell asleep and dreamed that the rock was a frog with great big eyes and a wide open mouth that looked like a cave. I was terribly frightened and ran into the frog’s mouth and found my- self in a little house with a stairway to the upper part. I went up the stairs and along a hallway and finally came to a room in which I thought I could see three huge black things and became so frightened that I ran down the stairs out of the door, In my hurry to zge+ away I fell off the rock and woke up to find that it was only a dream; so I went home and told my mother all about ig.

(Honorable Mention.) “The evening paper, the evening pa- per,” called Jeannette, a little girl of 6 with blue eyes and golden curls, Considering the cold evening, she was dressed very thinly. The hand with which she held the paper was blue with cold. The pennies were dropped into the cup she held un- til it was almost full. ‘ After the papers were all sold, Jean- nette started to go home, when she saw & little girl who resembled her. This strange girl was with a woman who peered anxiously into the faces of ail the little girls. Both ef these strangers were richly and warmly dressed. Although this worman seemed to be looking into all the girls’ faces, she missed Jeanr cette. Jeannette hurried on to her home, which was in a poor part of the city. The woman, whom she called “mother,” was sometimes very mean. That eve- ning she was very angry because Jean- nette arrived home very late. Jeannette did not listen to the angry flow of words; she was thinking of the girl who resembled her and of the anxious woman. The next morning, while Jeannette was selling papers, she saw the girl and the woman again. This time the woman saw her and bought a paper. When she looked into Jeannette's face she gave a start of sur- prise. She bought all of Jeannette’s papers and then asked her where she lived. When Jeannette told her she halled a taxi, gave Jeannette’s address. When they arrived at Jeannette’'s house the richly dressed woman ques- tioned Jeannette’s mother.

However, during these few centuries, by a continuous, natural mixing togeth- er of various types of people, she has produced a nation which possesses the characteristics of certain similar coun- tries, The people of southwestern Europe, l. @, Pramce, Spain and Italy, are a rether homeogeneous people, excelling rather in the finer arts, such as paint- ing, sculpturing and music, than in the more materialistic pursuits with which the English and German nations have identified themselves.

Besides this, America is proud to say that her manhood proved itself fit in that great struggle of 1914.

ee ae BP my - July 29, 1928. Our Liedieed (Honorable Mention.) His name was Mr. Kryst. He was the landlord at the cottage in which we were staying last summer at the beach. He was a very interesting per- son and I studied him all the while I was there. He was a dark man of short stature and rather handsome, I will say. He had lively black eyes and his moustache hung sorrowfully on both ends like a Chinese sacred figure. The shrieks of his high loud voice were heard about the cottage from morning till night. His one great pride was his 10-year- old son, Billy, who was:the very image of his father. There was not a single moment that. Mr. Kryst could spare to be away from his Billy. Yes, his Billy, his own, his very own. The thought of being separated for a day would break his heart. “We are great friends, Billy and I,” he used to say. I remember one morning we woke up very early, at 4 o'clock, and went for a swim. There were five of us, in- cluding my two brothers, Billy and his sister, Mary. A short while after we were gone, Mr. Kryst began to notice the absence of his son's voice, which was always the loudest, no matter where he was. It seemed rather strange to him and he jumped up suddenly horror stricken. Could it be possible———-? No, he would go and look. Quickly slipping on his kimono he rushed toward the door and threw it open. What he saw made him nearly faint. There stood Billy’s bed—empty. “Where, oh where is my Billy?” he exclaimed in a trembling voice, grab- bing his head between his hands. Ah, he guessed it. Quickly Yrushing out Just as he was, he ran toward the beach. But it was too late. His Billy was already far from shore, swimming vigorously. Terrified, Mr. Kryst was about to rush into the water after him, but just then he remembered that he had no bathing suit on. Suddenly his eye caught sight of a boat near him. Grabbing the oars he was just: about to shove the boat out from shore when the children, seeing him and thinking that he was going to take us out for a ride, ran up to him and began to pile into the boat. Then Mr. Kryst, taking Billy, re- turned safely home with him. At other times, when at work or busy about the cottage, if he noticed that Billy was not there, he would “Billy, Billy, you rascal, where are “Billy, Billy, you rascal, where are you?” If no answer came and Billy would not appear, Mr. Kryst would begin to use rather loud words, and when Billy would be found, would demand expla- nation. On this Billy would always answer that he was either building a bridge or inventing something or other. Then his father would laugh heartily and slapping Billy on the back would Bay, “That’s it, my boy, you'll be a great man yet.” F But nevertheless Mr. Kryst was also very just and fair, as the following incident will show. It was after supper and while the elders were drinking their coffee, we children went out to sit in the auto- mobile. Suddenly Billy grabbed the wheel and began to work the starter. Mary, who was always easily frightened, be- gan to scream, and hit Billy a blow on the head. But Billy could not stand being hit by a girl, so he jumped up and began boxing Mary with all his might. 4, / / My WUT! I Wf 1 iW Y {111 / / = t: ee SaTuaday CuehT With \a @ THE JUNIOR POST SECTION All of a sudden a terrible scream arose. The elders all jumped up and rushed out, and Mary, holding her hands to her eyes, ran into the house crying, “Oh, my eye, my eye! He knocked my eye out.” Mr. Kryst, not quite understanding the matter just yet, but guessing who the culprit was, began pouncing on poor Billy and at the same time yelling: “What—what did you do, you idiot, you you-—-” This shows that even though he loved Billy and his heart bled when he spanked him, he would not be unjust, and so he punished Billy just as he would have Mary. Mr. Kryst also had many other good points in him which I could not help but admire. Bes:des being fair and just he was very kind. I remember, while staying at the cottage, we caught some crabs and cooked them, but Mr. Kryst would not eat any, because he was sorry for them, remembering how they were cooked alive. Another good point in Mr. Kryst is the fact that he always praises his wife for her cooking and other things, which I don't believe every husband is capable of doing. ARNO PETRENKO (age 16). 4824 Forty-first street northwest. A Great Surprise. (Honorable Mention.) When I was living in Cincinnati I noticed that the lady next door always had a crowd of young boys and girls in to see her. After I had become acquainted with some of the neighbors, I learned why. When the World War broke out she sent her son to France. About three months later she received a notice of his death. She became very grief-stricken, and all of his friends came to see her. Every day some of them would come to see her, sometimes two or three, some- times five or six. Of course, I was very sorry to hear of her bereavement and wanted to become acquainted with her. One day when I was aitting on the porch I saw a truck stop. Several trunks were taken in the house next door. I learned that the daughter was coming home. Then I knew how to become acquainted. About a month later father brought home a young man, his wife and little girl. This man was father’s favorite worker in his office. I soon learned to like the young man and his family. Not long after I had a great surprise. The man was our neighbor's son. I was very glad to hear this and soon heard his story. He had gone to France when he was 20. About three months later there was a great battle. He had been very geriously wounded, and everyone thought him dead. - A notice was sent to his family at once. After a long while he recovered. By that time the war was over and no one but the woman who took care of him knew ne was alive. He came to Cincinnati to live, as he remembered that had been his home. The rest he had forgotten. When he came to visit us the house looked very familiar. Not long after that he met his mother and sister. ‘They did not recognize him at first, but his mind had now re- turned. There was a big reunion, and father was very glad that he had brought it about. JULIET WEITZEL (age 15). 1656 Twenty-ninth street northwest. A Real Hero. (Honorable Mention.) “Say, that was some talk, wasn’t it?” exclaimed Fred Martin ‘to his chum, Dick Lloyd, on their way home from a scout meeting. “Sure was,” exclaimed Dick. “Those hero stories were real all right. How'd you like to be ‘in some of the places he told about?” - “Pretty tough,” said Fred. I wouldn't mind if, though, if I'd get saved in the end or if I'd save some one else.” “Hey! Look at that kid,” said Dick suddenly. “He isn’t looking where he's going a bit; where does he think he is, in the country?” “Hey! Watch out!” yelled Fred to the child, a boy of nearly 6. The boy turned to look at Fred, but just as he turned his head a car shot around the corner at a tremendous speed. “Hey!” yelled Fred again, and just as he yelled Dick rushed out into the street. “Dick!” called Fred, but it was too late; his chum had rushed toward the boy and pulled him back, thus endan- gering his own life. Fred covered his eyes to avoid seeing his friend killed, but his ears heard a woman’s scream, the cries of a child and the crashing of brakes. Twenty-four hours later, Fred sat at Dick’s side in the hospital. “How's the kid?” Dick asked. him. “Sound as ever, but he was pretty badly scared. Say, bo. do you know who that youngster is?” “Nope,” said Dick, turning his head. “Waal,” drawled Fred, “he was no other than Billy F. Watkins, jr.” “What!” exclaimed Dick. “Is that boy the son of the millionaire?” ¢ “Yep,” said Fred. “Guess you'll get a spiffy reward, but I don’t wish I was you,” and Fred grinned. “Guess you don’t,” grinned Dick. “But I don’t mind it: I was Just think- ing about that talk ac our scout meet- ing about heroes,” he added quietly. “T have some of the earmarks of one, but I’ll bravely refuse the reward, be cause I’m a scout. ; “Bet that kid’ll look where he’s go-- ing next time,” grinned Fred, - LOIS E.

VAUGHN (age 9). — | School Spirit. (Honorable Mention.) How many of us really appreciate what our schools are doing for us? Those of us who attend sch@ol do not 7 often stop to think of the many things it does for us. There is a reason for erecting school buildings, hiring school teachers and having us attend school rather than the school board sent books to each child, leaving them study at home In such a system the cost would not be nearly so great as it is, but we would not be brought in contact with other individuals, which should teach us fair dealing with the other fellow. If we act disrespectfully to our class- mates and teachers we are not bene- fiting from attending school as we should. The student who cheats his way through school can never attain true success because it will lead him to al- ways depend on some one else, and left alone to work out a problem he is help- less. Furthermore it often kills a person's sense of right doing and will often lead up to stealing, as cheating is very near- ly the same as stealing. Also if students are left alone room during an examination, the teachers have trusted them and any- one who betrays this trust has no sense of honor. They should be proud their teachet in a has such faith in them and should be) x honorable. | ashamed to act other than The student is now laying the corner stone for his or her success in later life. We should feel a thrill of pride to be a part of the throng going through the corridors to and from classes each day But are we doing our part to help the school every day. Everyone should have school spirit, for it is what car- ries a school on toward its goal. Sometimes a student will say, “I will copy my math problems today just to spite the teacher.” He should not think for a moment it is the teacher he is spiting because the pupil) is hurting himself most. If we fail it is not usually the teach- er’s fault but it lies with us. Some child will waste a whole year and then expect the teacher to promote him when he hag failed to deserve this. We should not always censure the teacher, for if we take into considera- tion the difficulties he has to battle we will feel differently. When we are ready to score the teacher let us put ourselves into her place first. Let us continue our education as long as possible because if we use it right it will have a great influence upon our whole life. Some of you may say, “Well, the whole time Abraham Lincoln attended school would not be equal to a year in a good high school today, and he was greater than you or I will ever be.” That is all true, but he studied him- self every spare moment he had, and he would walk miles to borrow a book It was circumstances rather than un- willingness on his part to attend schoo). Even though he was not in school he was always striving for a better edu- cation. People who never have an am- bitien to gain more knowledge are the ones who never advance. So when school reopens again let us go back with a willingness to do better work than ever, never slacking in our duty, ever striving for a goal, ever car- rying in our mind what we do today will make us what we are when grown to men and women. When we are do- ing our best that is all is asked. MILDRED ROHRER’ (age 15). Boonsboro High School. Summer. Ws are bright and gay, And the a called the Blue Jay.

But I understand you will have to take the test after school the day of the game.” “The day of the game?” “Yes. I’m very sorry, Tom, because I know what it means both to the team and to you.” “Yes, sir.” So Tom, with’ drooping head and sad eyes, walked out of the principal's office, down the _ long, never-ending corridor, and home. “492 B. C.” “Thermopylae and Ar- temisium.” “Strike three, you’re out!” “Platoea, 479 B. C.” “A hit! Run, slide.” “Sophocles.” © “You're out!” “Euripides.” Oh, I can't keep my mind on this history now, not now. Poor Tom. The bright star of the Terris High Nine, but the dullest star in history class! Oh, Tom. Oh, Tom, why didn’t you study all these nights instead of care- lessly tossing your book aside? Now you've lost your chance to win the championship for your school— lost the chance to play in the biggest game of the season. But wait! At last the day of the big game. stadium was crowded. Terris’ colors— blue and white—-could be seen waving gayly in the breeze. The cheer leaders were jumping around full of pep— there goes the team on the field——now the pitchers are “warming up.” There goes the first ball. The stands are screaming. Tom, taking the examination, hear them yelling. Oh, to be there! But there were 35 questions answered, and only 10 were Twenty-five more. Oh, fate, how you are! Three innings over! hear the cheering, but was it the fans? What was the score? Twenty of those terrible questions finished. Oh, then the hard ones. Ten questions of dates! Two more innings have gone by. Only five questions ret in that game- chance—but maybe. “Miss Stanton, please tell me paper is passing?” “Just a minute,” answered that dig- nified person Oh, precious Seven innings! “Yes, you did very well on this, Mr. Mayfiela| Now, why couldn't you have done as well—" “Please, Miss Stanton; I'll come back for the lecture later.” And Tom was out of the door, leaving an astonished and open-mouthed teacher looking helplessiy after him. “It was the ninth inning. The Ter- ristons were at bat. The score was 2 to 1 In favor of their rivals, the cham- pions. The crowds were yelling, screaming, cheering, but it was chiefly for the champions. “I'll show ‘em,” thought Bob Price,, the manager, as he went up to bat. He hit the first ball pitched to him ott to left field, where it was lost by the fielder. Bob was safe on first. Billy Parks came up to bat and struck out. But meanwhile Bob had stolen second. Joe Edwards came up next. He swung his bat around, only to hear the um- pire call “Strike one!” As the third ball came whizzing along the umpire’s voice bellowed, “Strike three; you're out!” Poor Bob; down there on sec- ond praying fervently that Ed would mako a home run. Yes; of. course, he would, Wasn't Ed Simons noted for home runs? The stands were cheer- ing again, but this time for Terris High. Ed had made his home run! The score was 3 to 2, with the cham- pions going into the last half of the ninth, when Tom; all out of breath, panting like a mad dog, came running to Bob and the coach. “I’ve passed the exam. the do 1 “By George, yes! I've had to put in three pitchers against their one. I haven't another who could pitch now and hold 'em. Go on, Tom, and show this crowd the stuff we're made of!” Mi Tom went in. How that boy pitched! The first ball he threw sent the star batter of the champions out on a fly. The second was hit to short and sent to first for the second out. Then came the third batter. Oh, how the champions’ fan cheered and waved! Why? It was the famous home runner of their team, Fred Jones. But their joy was short-lived. First ball—“Strike one!” Second ball came by like a flash. “Strike two!" Then came the third—"“a hit, a hit!” they all cried. Everyone was up and craning his neck to follow the ball. As Fred Jones rounded second and passed to third (he ball whizzed by his head to the second baseman, but it wasn’t too late! Jones had pas third, it was true, but the ball, too, was on its way to the home plate. The runner saw it—‘Slide, slide,’’ and he slid, but the ball was in the catch- voles ang and the umpire said, “You're out ” , When the excitement died down and Tom had been carried on the shoul- ders of his admiring fellows out to the locker ‘room, he spoke to Bob and his teammates: “Well, fellows, I’m making a resolu- tion right hefe and now. That suspense I lived through was a terrible agony. I’m not going to ‘put off until tomorrow what I can do today!’ Never again!” _ And as each boy on the Terris High Nine turned to each other with a wise grin on his face, Tom suddenly jumped up and dashed out of the room. “Hey, where are you going?’ cried half a dozen of his friends. ‘Sorry, fellows, but I’ve got a date ght away!’’ EN (age 17). northwest. ae sod The could out to be done. crue! it was a Can I pitch — inning?

He had awe burn hair, blue eyes, which were probe ably a little too small, and round, rosy cheeks, There was one thing mostly that made him nice-looking. This was his pure white teeth, which sparkled like pearls. He lived with his grande rother since a baby. Their only sups port was what he took in. Now Leslie lost his Job, which made things “Don't worry; try to follow my motté once, ‘Wait and Hope,” said Leslie to as he went to bed, The next morning Leslie went out to see if he could get a little job.

He had done a few odd jobs and had made enough td pey his way, with a little left over, His grandmother had taken a_ boarder, which gave her a neat income.

When he reached home his grandmother was very glad to see him and told him the boarder had left, While they were eating dinner, Fred, his friend, who was not hungry, went out. After eating, Leslie took the stock which the old man had given him. “This is no good,” he said, starting te burn it up. Just as he burned a corner his friend Fred rushed in. “Stop!” he shouted. “Don’t burn them!” Leslie quickly stopped his friend’s excitement “The stock has gone up, and you are worth at least a million!” Fréd sald, gayly. Leslie quickly called by telephone the company, finding this to be true. “You shall come to live with wus, Fred,’”’ he said to his friend, who had no mother nor father. “And to you, granny, didn't I tell you to keep my motto, ‘Wait and hope?’”’ MORTON WOLFMAN (age 18), 1416 Irving street northwest. to find out ae s ee ea ete %s QA WwW "Ta ¢. ‘\ ul ‘

The Aftermath of a Conference. (Honorable Mention.) Dwight shifted his position from his fight to his left leg, leaned more heav- ily against the porch railing, and again Sunk into perplexed meditation. His Doyish face was flushed with the exer- tion of his thinking; his forehead was “furrowed as though marked with age, and his curly brown hair looked as though a whirlwind had passed over it. He turned around and put his el- bows carefully on the railing; just as Carefully he placed his chin in his hands and continued to think. At jast with a sigh he looked over his shoulder at his 16-year-old twin sister, Virginia Katherine, who was reclining in the hammock and who seemed to share in his trouble, whatever it was. Her chin was squared; her dark hair Was thrust behind her ears so as not to distract her thoughts; her blue eyes 6parkled with determination, and an impatient, slippered foot every few mo- ments was thrust from beneath a flow- ered organdie ruffle, to assist the ham- mock in its exceedingly erratic move- ments back and forth at the corner of he porch. Finally, with a sigh, she drew her foot out of sight, pulled the hammock fringe over her face and collapsed mournfully against the pillows. For five minutes there was not a sound to be heard. Dwight retained his posi- ti 1, and the hammock and its occu- pant were quiescent. Then Virginia gave an impatient lurch and stretched her arms. “Got a’ idea?” inquired Dwight hope- fully. “Say you have, Ginger Cake.” «..'“Nope,” succinctly responded his sis- ter. “Have you?” sarcastically. Dwight shook his head wearily. “But, at least, we don't have to fuss,” he added sweetly, with a smile noting the cynical, discontented expression on ihis sister's face. She smiled in return, and again silence reigned on the porch. Dwight and Virginia had just come back from the young people's confer- ence. There, with characteristic ardor, they had eagerly taken in everything, especially the words of a very brilliant minister who had talked to the young people each night. They were there- fore inspired to do something very at, good and unselfish to prove their “kove for Christ and their intention of following Him. At least, such was thelr desire. Being young, ardent and @ager, it had never occurred to them that anything which wasn't spectacular, extremely difficult and very self-sacri- ficing would ever be accepted as proof of their love and their desire to become disciples of Christ. The long, sunny afternoon wore fiway. The town began to come back to life. -A horse and wagon clattered up the road;.automobiles sped past; people laughed and talked on the streets; children played and shouted; the birds flew about in huge circles over the house tops, singing and twit- tering. Still Dwight and Virginia could mot solve their problem. The dinner bell rang, and they went. slowly, mournfully anc sedately into’ the house. Mrs. Randolph had noticed the depression and silence of her chil- Gren during the day, but attributing it to the effect of something learned at conference, and thinking perhaps they would rather talk it over themselves, She said nothing. Mr. Randolph was too interested in « political discussion on the relative qualities, good and bad, of Herbert Hoover and Al Smith, to be concerned about anybody else. As for the red-haired, 3-year-old baby, Charlie, a _ the sandman had long since visited him, Md he was dreaming peacefully up- Stairs while the tumult raged in the heads of his brother and sister. That night, when Virginia was almost asleep, a bulky form loomed in the doorway and a drowsy voice said: “Ginger Cake, I've thought somethin’.” It .was Dwight. self on her elbow. “What?” she demanded crossly. Dwight pattered across the floor. “It's this,” he said in his kind voice. “Of course, we want to do something big and fine. Don't we? Well, while we're thinking about what to do how about doing little things first so we'll know how? You know Michelan- gelo said “Trifles make perfection but perfection is no trifle.” We'll have to learn by degrees, Ginger Cake, We can’t do it all at once, because you know we've just decided about all this, and being good takes practice. Let’s see how many little things we can do to- morrow, and every day, and afterwhille we'll do that something big.” “All right,” agreed Virginia sleepily. “I'm glad you thought of something,” she said, her head slipping from her elbow and falling into the pillows. “Go-0-0d ni-i-ight!" and with a pro- longed sigh she fell asleep. Virginia awakened early the next morning and hurriedly dressed. “I'll cook breakfast this morning,” She decided, “then mother won't have to get up so early.” She tripped down the steps and out into the kitchen. Looking through the window she saw Dwight turning on the hose preparatory to washing the car. “Hullo,” she called to him. ‘What do you want for breakfast?” “Pancakes,"’ he responded, and began | his work. Half an hour:later mother came into the dining room with the baby toddling along in her wake, and discovered a laughing boy, a radiant daughter and a delicious breakfast. She was a wise mother, so she asked no questions concerning the sudden change in the dispositions of the twins from the depression of the night be- fore to the joy of the morning. After breakfast Dwight mowed the lawn while Virginia cleaned up the house, and lured Charlie with her by telling him about “The Three Bears,” while she left her mother with a book she had long desired to read. All the morning and part of the afternoon the twins were busy. Then the county nurse phoned and asked if Virginia or Dwight had any old clothes to spare. And she told the pathetic story of a poverty-stricken family of children, the parents of which both had tuberculosis. Virginia said “yes,” and, telling her mother, hastily ran tc the attic and collected all she could carry. Dwight helped put the clothes into the car, and together they went with the nurse to the miserable home. There they spent the rest of the afternoon, and when they left, they were not thinking of the big, great thing they were to do some time; they were; thinking about all the little things they : could do then to make that fami}! of Virginia raised her- happler. 4 That night Dwight and Virg‘s 4s Katherine sat side by side on the pd oh steps together. Neither one broké the silence, but both were thinking the same things: How every day could be spent in service for others, how little kindnesses and thoughtful deed’, could make so many people happy. Finally Dwight said, “It rem ads me, Ginger Cake, of that quotation from Corelli: ‘For nothing upon earth is so singular as kindness; nothing so rare as sympathy; nothing so absolutely unique, wonderful and purely divine as ungrudging, unboastful, devoted, changeless love that seeks nothing for itself but freely gives everything. What a ‘\ 4 7 | Wit, Nig men oall love is often selfishness; what God accepts as love is the entire and voluntary resignation of self for love's own sake.’ ”’ ALICE HARRISON (age 16). Farmville, Va. A Midnight Adventure. “8 (Honorable Mention.) It was midnight. Bobby awoke with a start, and jumping Out of bed, be- gan a cautious dressing. After taking a quick look to see if his mother was asleep he stole down the back steps toward Betty's house. Coming up the driveway Bobby picked up a handful of pebbles and tossed them at Betty's window. Betty was waiting for this signal, and her short, bobbed hair blew gently in the breeze as she leaned out of the window to tell Bobby that she would be right down. When she joined Bobby itn the gar- den he had his two fishing hooks dug out from behind the red rose bush. Down to the branch they went, al- though both had been forbidden to g° over and over. As they reached the shore both stopped and looked at each other. There on the side of the bank was a dear little house with the doors wide open. In they both went and sat down to the most delicious meal they had ever eaten. When everything in sight was gone two tired children trudged home. The next day they went back to find the house, but no matter where they looked the house was gone. EYNICE R. WALTERS (age 15). 812 Zavannah avenue, “4, ogress Heights, D. C. Versailles. (Honorable Mention.) Of all the places on my trip abroad, a trip that included England, Belgium, Germany, France, Switzerland and Italy, I think that I liked Versailles, France, the best, It is but a short drive from Paris and you leave by way of the Bois de Boulogne boulevard, which is the bromenade for all the gay people of Paris. The first thing to visit at Versailles is the palace. The grounds surrounding it are most beautiful. There are on most walls and ceilings of the rooms of the palace pictures by famous artists. You see in one room the cabinet and table of Marie Antoinette and in an- other the table at which President Wil- son signed the peace treaty. | Louis XIV'’s bedroom is here also, but only the bed and two tables are original. When you have visited the grounds you should go to the Petit Museum, where the coronation carriage of Charles I is, and many other sedan chairs, bridles, saddles, sleighs and car- riages are preserved. The Grand Trianon is the next place to see. In it are the bedrooms of Louis Phillipe and Napoleon. In the Petit Trianon is the bedroom of Marie Antoinette. The Temple of Love, which is just down the shady road from the Petit |} Trianon, was built by Louis XV for Jeanette Du Barry. . Still further down the lane is & quaint old cottage with a thatched roof. It is the house of the Lord of the Mill. vines “ I think that is all there is to say about Versailles, but if anyone going | abroad was planning to leave it out Il |would advise them to replan their trip include Versailles. — _BURRUSS (age 13). a - ™ = : ~, 7 First Place. (Honorable Mention.) I was awakened several nights ago in the “wee small hours” by a small but indignant voice that seemed to come from my stamp catalogue. "I think that I should have first place among the American stamps,” it stated. “I commemorate the founding of Jamestown, the first permanent Eng- lish settlement in America. I-——” But here it was interrupted by: “Well, I don't!” from the 4-cent stamp of 1925. “I should have first place. I carry the picture of the wife of the greatest American in history— Martha Washington. I am the only stamp that has ever been issued in America that bears the portrait of a woman.” “You are not!" cried the 8-cent stamp of 1902. “I carried the picture of Martha Washington 23 years before you were issued. I should have first place!” “What, little black stamp?” scoffed the 3-cent issue of 1869. “I was the first stan?tp in America to carry the picture of a loco- motive. I am entitled to first place,” it puffed. “We should have first place,” cried the Columbian issue of 1893. “We picture the most important events in the life of the greatest explorer the world has ever known.” This continued until the majority of the American stamps had claimed first place because of what they com- memorated, their beauty, et cetera, when the famous 5-cent stamp of 1845 in a contemptuous voice, declared: “For any of you to claim first place is absurd. There is no doubt whatso- ever to my right .to first place. I was the first postage stamp issued in America. I am worth 87,000! Who dares to question my right to first place?” — oo. stamp of every-day use, which had hitherto remained silent. “You!” haughtily retorted the first stamp. “Why you are the most in- significent of all!” “In the eyes of collectors, perhaps,” replied the 2-cent stamp. “But,” he continued, “the only true value is in usefulness. I carry the letters of the millions of American people.” Looking toward the Lindbergh Airmail, he went on, “this beautiful stamp, which was just a year old last month, has been even more useful than I, but like the one it honors it is too modest to boast of himself. “Many, many times your value has been paid by collectors for copies of this issue. Revenue is thus’ derived by the Government at a net gain, as the ‘stamps go into albums and no postal service is- rendered. “Then, too, what is more, we honor the two greatest and most loved Americans—George Washington and Charles A. Lindbergh! “What service have you rendered? You commemorate nothing nor do you even carry a portrait.” There was a.small ‘stamp-ede’ and a general shout arose: “Lindbergh and Washington take first place! Service takes first place!” The haughty 5-cent stamp stood abashed. The next morning.I told my brother what I had heard. He only laughed and sald that I had been dreaming. But if a dream it was, it was a most profitable one, for I now realize more fully real value. : FRANCIS ROSENBERGER. 118 N.

The Neale family was in an uproar. The house, on the inside, looked as if a cyclone had struck it. The rug was half rolled up on the Living room floor; chairs were pushed up in a corner to themselves; the table suddenly found itself slid violently into the hall, the lamp was all but knocked over in the mad rush. The davenport, jarred half out of its senses, was mysteriously placed by the table and looked about with an inquis- itive grin at all the confusion. Flowers were everywhere—all in the way. The broom, vacuum cleaner, mops, dust rags and all other imple- ments of cleaning were piled vigorously. But why all this commotion? Spring cleaning? No. Guess again. Give up? Well, Patricia, just 16, was giving her first big party. Thus it was that the household was turned upside down and every one chased out of their favorite haunt. No more peace until Saturday morning, for the big event was to take place Fri- day night. Patricia worked zealously. Her moth- er was amazed. Never before had Pat so willingly worked. At last it was 8 o'clock. Patricia dash- ed out once more to be sure that ev- erything was just right to sult her fastidious taste. Then lightly she ran upstairs to dress. At 8:30 Patricia tripped down the stairs. Eight forty-five; no guests in sight. Twenty past nine, still no guests. Nine thirty. In blind haste Patricia rushed upstairs and tore open her table drawer. Small, white, neat envelopes met her gaze as she sank down upon the bed. She had forgotten to mail her invitations. NANCY HANCOCK (age 16). Chatham, Va. The Storm on the Mississippi. (Honorable Mention.) When the Mississippi lashes its turbu- lent waves Against its drenched shores, Even the mightiest of mighty trees Goes down with deafening roar. The lightning comes in blinding flashes, And during that terrible storm Even the most valiant heart grows weak At the sound of the dreadful crashes. Then comes the end—and on a sorrowe ing world, The bright sun once more smiles; But the record of that fearful storm Will go down in history’s - files. MARGARET CRAGG (age 14), 53098 Colorado avenue northwest. Our Hired Man (Honorable Mention.) Our hired man—his name is Dick— Is funny as can be; He talks away to his horses, Like mother talks to me. At night when they come in from work, He gives them each a bA&th; And says it makes them feel so fine He can most hear them laugh. Their eyes are bathed, their faces, too. He says, “Now whoa, pet, whoa.” He does it to be nice to them, They really seem to know. Their coats and tails are brushed and combed Until they fairly shine; He parts their hair—or mane, -ecalled— Like mother fixes mine. ‘ And then when they are all cleaned up, He takes them in the barn. Gives them their food and makes thetir it’s bed, So they'll sleep soft and warm.
