Can gather honey from a weed.” The first thing Bill Borah will have to do as the new leader of the Senate will be to get a map of the Capitol and find out where the Re-| publican caucus room is located. The trouble about the Senate leadership of Senator Borah is that the first time he found that he was following himself he’d bawl himself out and resign. Since the whole theory of Demo- cratic partisanship in the’ House since 1910 has been predicated upon a floor leadership reposing in the hands of the Chairman of Ways and Means, when the party is in power, the best thing the party could do now, being out of power, would be to let John Garner hold down the floor and his committee place too.

Man’s Clothes, Cut, Bloody, Mystery to Police Forces / District and Montgomery Officials Unable to Find Clew to Owner of Bundle Which Suggests Duck Hunter May Have Been Slain. ~ A mystery which grew deeper as the day advanced, was thrust upon police of Montgomery County and the Dis* trict early yesterday morning when an outfit of men’s clothing, gashed and bloodsoaked, was found in a box beside the Conduit road, just over the District line. The clothing; which consists of a complete set of masculine attire, with | the exception of the coat and head- gear, was found by Dewey Radcliffe, associate engineer at the District reservoir. . Radcliffe, who was on his way to work when he made his find, turned it over ‘to Roy Ferguson, Deputy United States Marshal, who lives at 4641 Conduit road, directly across from thé water plant. Fergu- ‘son, in turn, took them to the Bethesda branch of the Montgomery County police, where they were held last night.

Edgerton, Ohio., Nov. 24 (A.P.).— Two men and a woman were killed tonight when a passenger plane, en- route from Cleveland ‘to Chicago, crashed near here. All three persons are believed to have been residents of Cleveland. The dead: H. H. Bassett, pilot of the plane; Mrs. H. H. Bassett, the pilot’s wife;. Glenn R. Butts. Several persons who viewed the crash declared that the pilot evidently became confused during a snow-storm He circled three times and in gliding down to earth, the plane crashed into a-tree. It did not catch fire, but was wrecked. The plane, one of a ‘fleet of passenger planes operated between Cleveland ‘and Chicago, by the Universal Air Lines, was following ‘the New York Central tracks at the time. It had alighted at the transcontinental airport, Toledo, at 4 p. m. to refuel.

In contradiction of these reports were statements by Finance Minister Moloff and the Bulgarian news agency The tinance minister catagorically de- nied any serious troubles had arisen from the Macedonian disputes and said that rumors had been spread with the sole object of compromising the suc- cess of the Bulgarian loan abroad. The news agency statement read: “We are in a position to declare that not only in Sofia and Bulgarian Mace- donia but throughout the entire coun- try perfect order prevails. “Alarming news having appeared in the foreign press, we are obliged once more to issue a formal and categorical denial in the interest of truth. * * ~* All of these reports were at first gos- Siped of in the Belgrade press, which persists in its habit of spreading in- formation of the most unbelievable na- ture for the purpose of compromising the prestige of Bulgaria, and these we have many times denied. It is clear that the campaign is to compromise the Bulgarian stabilization loan.” Reign of Terror Reported. What is described as a reign of terror prevails throughout the Petritch dis- trict, where bitter feuds are in progress Petritch is located almost at the junc- tion of Bulgaria, Jugoslavia and Greece, and is 120 miles south of Sofia. It was at Petritch that a serjous clash took place in October, 1925, be- tween Bulgarian. and Greek sentries which threatened for a time the whole peace of the Balkans.

Drive to Diffuse Christmas Cheer Started by The Post * Gifts Not Part of Campaign, Intended to Increase True Spirit of Season by Urging Personal Participation in Community Activities and Visits to Institutions. ’ Christmas comes but once a year. For which most of us, at one time or another, are inclined to say, “Allah be praised.” But underneath the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping, the in- convenience of traffic jams due to in- creased business and the strain of long hours at work, The Washington Post believes everybody in Greatery Wash- ington wishes every one else a Merry Christmas. \ To stimulate this underlying ‘senti- ment on the part of the populace at large, The Post has decided’ to conduct jan appeal for what it has chosen to éall “A Brighter Community Christ- mas.” ‘ : Bright colors adorn homes and places of business during the holiday season Bright lights hang from windows, from \ , trees and from housetops. Bright clothes are worn by children. Bright faces greet you ih homes, in stores and on the street. And, best of all, bright/ - st wad aN ” ae es am ey, Mey _ wre * hearts do their best to make Christmas a day to which we all look forward. In the enjoyment of individual hap- piness, people are prone to forget others not so fortunate, and, in this respect, The Post’s appeal may be of value. The Post wants each and every person in Greater Washington to share his or her happiness during the holiday sea- son. . It is not hard to spread a little cheer among your neighbors, nor is it diffi- cult to join in manifestations of° ill sorts which go‘toward increasing the joys of others on Christmas. If each does his bit the ultimate result is easily achieved and no one is called. upon to bear a heavy burden. The Post’s appeal for “A Brighter Community Christmas” does not tin- clude any financial campaign, any donations of clothing or food, but rather a spirit of sharin n piness with ot others eta ethene!

Ratcliffe, of the fire marshal’s @ffice was inspecting the second and #hird floors of 1014 H street northwest. (They are occupied by the Radio Social Club. The inspector became suspic- dous and called in Sergt. E. K. Shelton and Detectives George R. Browning and @. R. LeFoe, of the First Precinct. Then the police called out 45 mem- bers of the club, loaded them into peveral patrols and took them to the First Precinct Station. There they hooked Chester Louis Burns, of 1026 N street northwest, on charges of setting up a gaming table. The others were released. Police say they also icked up racing and blackjack slips the club rooms. But the other attempts during the Gay of fire department inspectors to cooperate with the police proved abortive. They went to several of the a@stablishments along Fourteenth street which the police are picketing. Of course, fire department inspectors dhave the right of entry, but that right @vailed them lIttle, because all of the places were unoccupied, and the heavy doors were locked. They souldn’t do any inspecting. Police of the Eighth Precinct under Lieut. Michael Raedy made a raid at 4811 Seventh street northwest and ar- rested Henry G. Bazemore, colored, 45 years old, of that address, who they charged with permitting gaming and gale and possession of liquor. He was released on $25 on the gaming charge and on $500 bond each on the liquor charges. Congress Ald to be Sought. Tt could not be learned last night whether it is definitely intended to ¢ontinue the fight against gamblers by the use of the fire department. This, it is admitted, would be of great help to the police In obtaining evi- dence. District Attorney Rover is probably the most effective addition which the police forces obtained yesterday. He promised the full cooperation of his office to the police department. He mdvocated passage of legislation’ by Congress which would enable the police to obtain directly padlocks @gainst gambling establishments. At the present time there is no stat- ute by which padlock — injunctions against the strongholds of gambling may be obtained, Mr. Rover pointed out. He declared he has been in- formed proposals to petition Congress for enactment of such legislation have been made and he is heartily in favor of the move. Cites Old Nuisance Law. To strengthen the prohibition law, “he District attorney pointed out, Con- - gress passed measures by which pad- lock injunctions could be sued out against members of the liquor “racket” end the legislation has had strong ef- fect. “The only way I know of at present by which gambling establishments may be closed,” Mr. Rover declared, “is to go the old round-about way through the equity courts of having the places adjudged nuisances. .But this is far less effective than the so-called pad- lock injunctions.” In securing a padlock injunction, the District attorney declared, the owner of the premises against which the ac- tion is to be taken is first notified. If the owner does not take steps to rid his premises of law violators, he is mamied in the injunction proceedings end the padlock is applicable to him as well as the violators. “If Maj. Hesse gathers evidence @gainst any gambling estabiishments in the city and lays it before us, he can rest assured that we will carefully scrutinize the law to find @ way by which we can act most ef- fectively against the gamblers. At present, though, I know of ho way, except under the general law of nul- Sance abatement, by which we might close these places,” Mr. Rover said.

M. 7579 and intends to win In his battle with the “gambling racket,” Maj. Hesse de- Clared yesterday. Operators of the gambling houses and their cohorts as well as their pa- trons are not so easily whipped, Hesse believes, and expressed the belief that most of those which have been “closed” simply have moved their busi- ness to other quarters. Maj. Hesse declared that he in- tended to hold his precinct command- ers to strict accountability for the dis- covery of the new locations of the gambling places and the picketing, raiding or whatever else is nece to make their continued operation un- profitable. Asked if he were personally opposed to gambling, the police chief raised his voice slightly to declare that “I’m opposed to commercialized gambling. I'm not worried about any penny ante game between friends in . private homes.” It was suggested that most of the gambling houses were reputed to run “honest” games. Holds All Are Crooked, “They're not honest. They’re all crooked,” Maj. Hesse contradicted. Representative Gibson, of Vermont, chairman of the House subcommittee investigating conditions in the Dis- trict, conferred with Maj Hesse yes- terday and promised the police chief the aid of himself and other members of his committee in pushing to en- actment legislation needed by the po- lice td strengthen their hand in deal- ing with gambling houses. Padlocking of gambling places is to be providea for in legislation which 1s to be prepared by Hesse, with the aid of the District corporation counsel. Other provisions will be designed to give the police easier access to gam- bling houses As soon as the legisia- tion is prepared another conference will be held with Representative Gib- son at which the whole situation will be gone over. Dougherty Talks on War. Discussing the conference yesterday, Representative Gibson repeated, in much the same language, his former statements concerning what his com- mittee will do in the coming short session of Congress. In brief the chairman said that there were many vitally important pieces of District leg- islation pending which demanded the help and constant attention of himself and members of his.committee if they were to be enacted. He said that his committee was not one concerned solely with making sensations but was con- cerned with improving the machinery with which District officials had to work, Commissioner Proctor L. Dougherty, president of the Board of Commis- sioners, who has immediate supervision of the police department, said he had no statement to make on Hésse’s crusade against gamblers. The Com- missioner did, however, offer the fol- lowing comment: “The police department is belng run by men who know their jobs. I think they are handling the situation well. I am not prone to agree with all the sensational reports and rumors which are circulated now and then. Person- ally, I think the best way to catch gamblers or anyone else is to keep quiet until you have them.” Horse-Thief Band Captures Rancher Depredations of New Mex- ico Outlaws Continued, Officials Hear. Alamogordo, N. Mex., Nov. 24 (A.P.).— A rancher in the San Andreas Moun- taing was captured by the band of horse thieveg that has been making depredations in this section recently and was forced to shelter them for the night and kill his own goats to feed the raiders. The rancher was released unharmed and gave this news out to- day. It was the first word concerning the thieves that had reached this town for days. The rancher reported that the men had a string of nine horses and said they first threatened to take him with them and later decided to let him go. Believing that the men may have turned east from San Antonio, N. Mex., in an effort to escape through Texas, deputies of the Otero County sheriff's office have asked Sheriff Sam Kelsey, of Lincoln County. to vatch the passes through the White Mountain section. The horses stolen were taken from the best saddle stock in this section. The series of thefts from ranches Started shortly after three men broke jail at Hillsboro, and the local officers believe two of the men to be Ed Mc- Daniels and Jake Martin, jall breakers.

‘ CONDITION OF KING GREATLY IMPROVED Queen Mary Able to Attend Concert; Lung Congestion, However, Unchanged. RULER RETAINS STRENGTH London, Nov. 24 (A.P.).—King George maintained his strength today, and there was a very definite relaxation of the anxiety which his illness stirred throughout Great Britain. The ‘condition of the king was un- changéd midnight and all was quiet at Bulckingham Palace. After a restful night his majesty showed improvement this morning and maintained this improvement throuch- out the day, so much so that Queen Mary was unable to attend a concert by the Royal Choral Society in Aibert Hall this afternoon. “The king is very much better,” the queen said to Dame Ethel Smith, widely known woman composer, with whom sie chatted. The king's physicians issued a bulle- tin at 7:45 p. m. as follows: “The King has passed a quiet day The condition of the lung is un- changed.” Pleurisy Is Noticed. While the queen looked rather tired when she left Buckingham Palace to g9° to the concert, sine i'd not show any evidence of worry. For the first time it was learned to- Gay that pleurisy had manifested itself in the king, but this did not cause any additional concern since it was understood that pleurisy in the king's type of lung congestion was nothing Out of toe ordinaiy. In cheerful Karmontr with the optt- tmulstic mews from the royal’ patient’s Bedside were several happy ci*tcum- stances or events hailea by a watchful public. One was a vast improvement in the weather, whicd for three days had bred depression of spirits with dismal skies and persistent heavy rain Today, though squally, was marked with frequent bursts of sunshine. While yesterday's dripping crowd be- fore the palace was depressed because the palace guard was mounted with- out its customary band music, today the guard's band played snapplily at the daily spectacle.’ This revived popu- lar spirits remarkably. Then the queen's attendants at the Musical concert was taken as an ex- cellent omen by thousands who eager- ly watched for every good sign. King’s Pudding Prepared. Another happy occasion was prepara- tion of the king’s Christmas pudding at the cookery exposition at Olympia. This was seized as an opportunity for expression of good will and sympa- thetic affection for the sovereign. The public was admitted to help mix this vast confection and for seven hours a steady stream passed by the great bowl. Never were the big stirring spoons wielded with more vigorous ardor. Nurses, Boy Scouts, girl guides, police- men, soldiers and newsboys gladly par- ticipated in this ceremony. Two baby girls, one 18 months and the other 6 months, were helped by their mothers to move the giant wooden spoon to the rich, doughy mixture. Every one who stirred was told to make a wish. “God bless King George,” sald one woman, while another, seizing the spoon, added: “May he be well enough to eat the pudding.” Kip Rhinelander’s Sister To Wed in California ws Redwood City, Calif., Nov. 24 (A.P.). A marriage license was issued here to- day to Mrs. Adelaide Rhinelander Cha- queneau; of the famous New. York Rhinelander family, and John Living- ston Thomas, prominent San Francisco broker. The wedding will take place at the home of Lewis G. Carpenter, business associate of the bridegroom, in Burlingame. Mrs. Chaqueneau, who is the daugh- ter of Philip Rhinelander and a sister of Leonard Kip Rhinelander, has been married before, while Thomas has been maried three times, records show.

Committee Considers Means to Improve Wave Allocation of Chicago Station. mm ee UNLIMITED TIME SOUGHT ee —- ee ee New Orleans, Nov. 24 (A.P.).—A cam- _ paign to insure the carrying of the message of organized labor by radio into every American home was dis- cussed today by a committee of the American Federation of Labor. Recommendation was made by the executive council of the federation, in ‘annual session here, that efforts be made to secure from the Federal Radio Commission “an exclusive national channel with unlimited time and pow- er” for station WCFL, of Chicago, and Operated by the Chicago Federation of Labor. Describing the station as the Only one in the United States owned ‘and operated in the interest of organ- ized labor, the executive council re- ported that the Federal Radio Commis- sion, in its recent reallocation of wave lengths, time and power, had assigned WCFL a wave length which’ does not permit broadcasting from Chicago after 8 o'clock in the evening at this time of * the year and also reduced its power to 1,000 watts. The effect of the action, the execu- tive council said, is not only to restrict the area over which WCFL can be heard, thus treating the station as though it were purely local in interest and usefulness, but also to keep it off the air entirely during most of the eve- ning, which is the only time that per- .@ons employed during the day have the!._. * Miss Manville to leisure to use their receiving sets.” In the event the Radio Commission does not grant the changes desired, the executive council recommended that ‘gteps be taken to bring the entire mat- ter to the attention of Congress. The recommendation was referred to the resolutions committee, which will report to the convention Monday. No regular session of the convention was held today, but committees met and discussed the matters referred to them. The only activity scheduled for tomorrow is addresses in loca] churches by President William Green, Secretary Frank Morrison and other labor leaders. Dr. C. H. Marvin Host To G. W. U.

Lindbergh and other ad- mirers of Mr. Hoover and ask them to come here and cooperate with us in this? “There are numerous State societies here. We ought to ask these societies to make arrangements to entertain del- egations from their States. “Regardless of the simplicity of the actual inaugural ceremony itself, Wash- ington will be anything but dull during the inauguration period. The city will be gaily decorated, the streets crowded, the theaters staging the best shows and there wil] be the usual colorful scenes and individuals that always attend an inaugural “Washington is every American's home town, and every American hopes to pay us a visit sooner or later. In my opinion, thousands of men and women who have been planning to come here some day will decide to come here for the inaugural. It should be a sort of home-coming week. “The first step that should be taken with regard to a civic celebration should be the formatioa of a committee on arrangements, a committee made up of men and women in the civic and trade bodies. Once this committee ts formed, there will be no lack of sug- gestions for the proposed celebration.” Board of Trade to Meet.

Harlan Wood, commander of the local department of the American Legion, declared that his organization would be glad to join in the movement for a civic celebration. “Such a momentous event,” he said, “calls for something in the way of a celebration, and 1 am sure that our two drum corps and our Forty and Eight Drill Team will be glad to take part in any program that is arranged.

Hague, Eastern vice chairman of the Democratic national committee and jeader of his party's forces in New Jersey, was arrested Thursday and re- leased ten minutes later in bail of $1,000 on the writ of habeas corpus. He was held in contempt for refus- Ing to honor a subpena calling on him to testify before the Case commission on the eve of the recent general elec- tion. The body is investigating charges of slush funds and other political cor- ruption in Hudson County, the seat of his leadership. Adjournment to Tuesday. Today's hearing was before Chancellor John J. Fallon, who ad- Journed court until Tuesday morning, which is one day after Hague was to have appeared before the for trial. When adjournment was taken, Rus- se] E. Watson, counsel to the Case com- mission, expressed himself as “quite sure right now that the court's decision would be academic.” He pleaded that the litigation be expedited, so that the losing side might get its appeal through before January 8, one of the last days of life allotted the 1928 legislature, The incoming legislature could con- tinue the action against Hague, but only through the long process of enact- ment of iegisiation, and parliamen- tarians questioned whether one body could take up the litigation of another. Absence of Seal Issue. Thomas L.

Watson said he was informed by Hanson that neither house of the legislature had a seal The vice chancellor replied: “The rules of the assembly say that A& warrant must have a seal if they neglected to provide a seal for selves, it is the fault of the assembly and the warrant is no good.” During most of the.

ee BOOLIDGE T0 PRESS WORLD WAR PACT Will Urge Powers to Ratify . Senate Reservations, Senators Are Told. CRUISER BILL ON PROGRAM (Associated Press.) Ratification by the world powers of the Senate’s reservations to America’s pro carry into the World Court ig expected to be sought again by President Coolidge, together with his Senate program of approval of the Kellogg antiwar treaty and the naval crulser construction bill. These hopes of the President, who is about to conclude his occupancy of the White House were disclosed at a break- | fast yesterday at the Executive Man- | sion, to which he invited most of the Republican senators now in the city —seventeen. Unlike the many past White House which have been confined almost en- tirely to the social phase, Mr, Cool- | fdge yesterday took up with the Re- | publican leaders of the Senate their | calendar of business for the approach- ing short term and revealed his desires | for early action on the Kellogg treaty and the cruiser bill. More surprising to some of the guests was the revival of the World Court subject. It is understood .that the President indicated a desire to approach again the world powers on the question of approval of the reserva- tions voted by the Senate in adhering to the World Court protocol. Several of the nations have declined to accept | the reservations. Modifications to Stand. It is the understanding that Mr. Coolidge will ask Secretary Kellogg to | remew discussions with the foreign powers with a view to obtaining their acceptance to the rseervations. There seems to be no thought in the mind of the President or of Senate leaders to seeking any modification of the reservations. Chairman Borah, of the Senate for- eign relations committee, a bitter op- ponent of the World Court resolution, will not interpose any objection to the estion of the President in again seeking jadherence to the Senate’s World Court resolution. Likewise, Senator Gillett, Republican, of Massachusetts, will not press his resolution asking the Presi- dent to take steps to reopen negotia- tions with the other nations, in view of the intention of the Chief Executive. There was general unanimity among ‘the Republicans at the conference which included Senators Curtis, of Kansas, the. Republican leader; Borah and Hale, chairmen of the Senate naval committee, that the Senate’s calendar could be worked into shape to get the Kellogg treaty and the cruiser cons- struction bill up for action. It was explained that the Swing- Johnson Boulder Canyon Dam. bill holds first place on the calendar. Sev- eral other pieces of unfinished busl- ness from last session also have been given preferred status, including the House bill restricting interstate ship- ments of convict labor gaods and the Jones measure to increase penalties for prohibition law violations. Navy Bill Vote Seen. Mr. Coolidge was assured that there was likelihood of forestalling another weary filibuster against the Boulder Canyon Dam bill. However, none of the leaders in this fight were at the conference. Senator Johnson, of Cali- fornia, the author, is out of the city. Intimations were made that there was a possibility of a substitute bill being brought forward as a result of the re- rt of the engineers named to inspect *the project under the Pittman resolu- tion. The Republicans seemed confident that the 6274,000,000 naval construction bill could be brought up for a vote as soon as these bills on the preferred list of last session are disposed of, and they believed these measures, while controversial, could be disposed of. It is the belief that the naval con- struction bill, already passed by the House and reported out. by the Senate naval committee, will come up before the Senate takes up the Kellogg treaty. This ‘treaty, renouncing war as an in- strument of national policy, is ex- pected to be sent to the Senate soon after Congress reconvenes. It must first be considered by the foreign rte- lations ‘committee. Pica Incidentally, no word of opposition so far. has cropped up to the treaty, and there have been intimations from some Democratic sources that it will win sup- port from some of the leaders on that side. Senator Borah has placed his in- dorsement on the pact. No Word on Farm Session. No word has come from the White House parley on farm relief or the possible necessity of an extra session to take up this subject. The question of an extra session is outside the juris- diction of the President. Senator Mc- Nary, of Oregon, the chairman of the agriculture committee, who has prepar- ed an administration farm relief bill for early introduction, was among those at the conference, however. Most of the opposition of the foreign powers. to the American. World Court reservations is understood in this coun- try to be centered on the one declar- ing that the World Court, before tak- ing up for an advisory opinion any subject in which this nation is inter- estéd, must first obtain the consent * of America. - : Now, it appears that there is some dispute among the nations as to whether the World Court can render any advisory opinion without first taking up the case by unanimous vote. If it is determined that this is: the case, it. is believed here that little ap- prehension will. be felt by any nation of the court giving advisory opinions and that antagonism to America’s reservation on this score may disap- pear. | Phone Main 4205 and place your assified advertisements, and more — likely fio will have a dozen calls the same day the advertisement é fro ple who wan pears m t to what you have to sell. a buy as z r THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER WINNERS IN “BIG NEWS” CONTEST | t | _First winners in The Washington Post's “Big News" contest.

Martinelli singing leading roles. Opera Magnificently Staged. Magnificently staged, it was, with settings by Joseph Urban. There was a beautiful, luminous eky, with snow- capped mountains that were startlingly real stretching off to the horitzon—a sky across which feathery clouds actual- ly moved, with a great golden moon rising all through the first act. When the curtain went up on the second act the audience tnvoluntarily broke into applause over the stage— converted for this act into the intertor of a peasant’s cottage, with two curly- headed children eating their porridge at a table in the foreground. It looked like an old oll painting. | Hauptmann's drama “The Sunken Bell” was adapted from an old German folk tale—about Heinrich, the beil caster, and his wife, Magda, and Rau- tendelein, the beautiful mountain en- chantress for whom Heinrich had cast a@ wonderful bell, the tones of which cculd ring the whole gamut of human emotions. Hurled it Down Mountainside. © As Heinrich was takifig the bell on a cart across a mountain pass to a church where it was to hang the sprites and gnomes and nymphs of Rautendelein's court attacked him and hurled his bell ccown the mountainside into a lake Heinrich, bewitched by Rautendelein, forgot his wife and children until one night he heard the bell tolling from the bottom of the lake. Magda had drowned herself, and as she sank to the bottom of the lake her hand had touched the bell, Sothern and Marlow played it in New York, in an English translation, about fifteen years ago. The story was translated into Itallan for the opera by Claudio Guastalla and Respighi wrote the music. Respight came from Italy for this first American performance. Demont Q.

After this appeal, the Washington press got behind Early and advocated legislation ‘which vould bring about the Government care of lepers. Repre- sentative Britten, of Illinois, intro- duced a bill to aid, and Representative Johnson, of Washington, sought con- gressional authority for Hawaii to care for lepers from the United States. Eventually the Public Health Service was given adequate funds to establish In 1921 the National Leper Home at Carville, La. “John Early was the one outstand- ing example of the necessity for the Federal Government to care for lepers,” Dr. F. S. Smith, in charge of hospitals of the Public Health Service said. “Early always sought publicity and contrived to escape frequently to make newspaper stories, but he deserves credit. “When we took him first to Carville, he was resentful and would not take the treatment, which, of course, we do not force on any patient. Later he voluntarily submitted and through the injections of chaulmoogra oil and proper diet and care, Early has become cured and now has his reward of com- plete liberty.” Veteran of Spanish War. Early came to Washington first in 1908 in quest of a pension, having been a Spanish-American War veteran. He became sick in a rooming house en lower Pennsylvania avenue, and the health officer, who was called imme- diately suspected him as leprous. Dr Fowler was summoned and Early was taken to the little house un the Eastern branch of the Potomac River. Which served as an isolation hospital. He was found to be both clinically and bac- teriologically a leper. The District of Columbia govern- ment found itself with Early as a public charge, and when he made his first es- cape no. effort was made to find him Later he turned up at the Fort Wash ington leper colony near Tacoma, Wash where he was employed as an attendant. Six years later, in May, 1914, he stole away from the colony and, proceeded to Victoria, where he purchased a ticket for New York, stopping at Toronto and Montreal en route. — ee Me Denied Having Disease.

When confronted with the results of the laboratory exumina- tlons of his tissue and scars, Karly ad- mitted that he had contracted the di- sease when he was serving in the Phil- ippines. “Early was at periods a submissive and antagonistic patient,” Dr Fowler said. “We had furnished him with a little garden at the tsolation house and got some chickens for him to tend, and gave him the treatments which were then regarded as suitable. “At one time he suspected that he |was not actually leperous and cut a iplece of tissue from his body and mailed iit to Dr. Hansen. leper bacillus. with the knowledge that he should not} clons he sometimes felt that | jo done it, yet it describes the suspt- | | Mining Congress William Loeb, of New York, to Be Annual Banquet.

Chicago, Noy. 24 (N.Y.W.N.S.).—Gold Coast society and high finance were in- verested today in the divorce suit filed by Mrs. Catherine Barker Spaulding against her young husband, Howard Kenry Spaulding. She inherited as a minor a $30,000,000 estate from her father, J. H. Barker, railroad car manufacturer. She mar-i Med Spaulding in 1915 when both were just of age. It was regarded as an un- usual love match. She now charges her husband with habitual drunkenness. He is a member of a family noted in the early development of the city. ‘On his deathbed in 1910 Mr. Barker mamed the late James R. Forgan, presi- dent of the First National Bank. as guardian of the child and as trustee of the $30,000,000 Barker estate. ‘Since the estate has swollen to an estimated value of $50,000,000. Mrs Spaulding can never obtain control of the principal. Until she reached 21 she received $60,000 a year of the income, $150,000 ur¥il her twenty-sixth birth- day and then has been getting the full — estimated at nearly $2,500,000 a year. »The trust terminates on her death afd the principal becomes part of the estate.

NOVEMBER 25, 1928. —, 1b BORA AS REGULA ADE 1S PROBLEM FOR SENATE 6.0.P Idahoan’s Activity in Direct- ing Session’s Business Stirs Members of Party. RECENT INSURGENCY DISTURBS OLD GUARD Metamorphosis to Com- mander for Administration Irks Old Leadership. me ee ee By CARLISLE BARGERON. The picture that is gradually but un- mistakably unfolding at the Capitol of Senator William E. Borah can not be said to meet with the hearty and unan- imous approval of his colleagues. It may be that they do not know their art, but nevertheless the 1928 version of the Idaho warrior is not one calcu- lated to please all. It has to do with the senator’s trans- formation from an insurgent to a reg- ular. This part of it is all right. It appears graceful to the eye, visualizes the senator no longer the stormy petrel. standing before the rostrum, running his hands through his shock hair and decrying the administration's policies, but rather his spry ascension to the regular band wagon, uttering lively and forceful paeans of the Republican party as he does so. So much so good. There is no one among the senators on the reservation who did not embrace the Idahoan. There is a unanimity of opinion that the Republican path is much easier with him going along than standing out in front trying to head his march- . ing colleagues off. Leader of Regulars. But then, as this episode was being contemplated with warmth, a shuttle clicked and the senator was depicted not only as being satisfactorily on the reservation but at the head of it. There was a sharp catch in the throat of those studying this work of art, and then murmurs that perhaps the picture was not such a masterpiece after all. Possibly there is a mistake, an error of the artist’s hand. But there he is. the Idahoan, nevertheless, out at the head of the parade, undeniably leading it. Forsoothe, it’ is the senator's way When he embraced the Hoover cause. he did so with vigor. a vigor that sent hi.1 scurrying all over the country in Gov. Smith’s wake, rushing in to tell the crowds not to take seriously the man they had just heard. He was easily the outstanding figure in the Hoover campaign. Then with the war over. and all the war implements made ready to. be beaten into farm relief. the senator hurried back to Washington, first of the senators and members of the House on the scene. By the time they began arriving here, he had an extra session of Congress all rigged up for them. He had decided, too, that the Kellogg peace pact should be passed as well as the naval bill. Maps Out Short Session. The House went humbly ° about putting a committee to work on the appropriation bills, but otherwise the Idaho senator had the work for the short session all laid out. ferred to in many quarters as the man who is to be Mr. Hoover’s spokesman in the Senate. He also is referred to as the possible Secretary of State. The point is, that Mr. Borah is referred to. almost daily, in the press. Shortly after his return, he resumed the practice of having daily conferences with the press This practice originat- ed quite a while ago and for the con- | venience of the newspapermen and at their suggestion. Regardless of its origin, however. it has become to be an institution. Every afternoon at 3 o’clock, from a dozen to a score of newspapermen wait upon the Idaho senator to find out not only what Congress is going to do but the nation and world as a whole. In fair- ness it should be said, too, that they often come away with many ideas if not facts as to what these component parts of the mundane whole are go to do. xsi Not to Oppose Naval Bill. In addition to doing the things now that an administration leader should do, Borah is not doing the things that an administration leader should not do. He is not enthusiastic about the naval bill, even in its present form. In fact, he has said that he sees no need of it. He is considered to have been the strongest influence against its pas- sage in the Senate at the last session. And, in so far as the original bill is concerned he definitely stopped that. But the present bill, according with his best judgment or not, will not have his opposition. It will be per- mitted to pass There is a difference right there between an _ insurgent leader and an administration one. Then out comes a feeler from the State Department on the question of whether this country should exercise a virtual protectorate over Nicaragua. It does not bring the senator to nis feet with objections. Of course, noth- ing but a feeler was put out, but Borah used to be one of the first to give his reaction. Spurns Official Role. There is no suggestion that he is to be the duly constituted majority leader. He would probably not accept such a role if assigned to him. But the role that is shaping up before his col- leagues’ eyes is that of the new leader, self-constituted authorized, or what not. It isn’t fair, some of the regulars are saying. He should first serve as a pri- -vate in the ranks as they are doing. Of course, he was a leader of the in- surgents, but that is a comparatively small body, it is contended, and does not entitle him to the leadership of the regulars even if he does bring his entire group of insurgents into the regular ranks with him. But it was as head of the insurgents that the senatcr first acquired his taste and aptitude for leadership. If he is to remain in the regular camp it looks as though it will be as the commander in chief. Moscow to Teach 10 Arctic Families Moscow, Nov. 25 ‘A.P.).—Ten families of various tribes living beyond the polar circle are to be brought to the zoolog- ical garden with reindeer, dogs and other possessions.

SENATOR’S DIARY Being the Day-by-Davy Observations of a “Member- at-Large” Set Down for His Own Satisfaction November 12. XTRAORDINARY powers of clair- E voyancy would have been required to have foreseen some of the re- sults of the congressional elections. I didn't have them, so my guessing fell short with the rest. None of the prophets within my circle of acquain- ' tance looked for such a large margin in either the Senate or House. The most optimistic among the Republicans looked for a slight gain in the Senate and expected to just about hold their own in the House. Here we are now with a majority about equal to that of the Coolidge Congress elected in 1924. And with only two of the insurgents definitely off the reservation it isn’t merely a “paper majority.” It looks like the kind of a majority that will enable Herbert Hoover to do business in the Hooveresque way. Here is a strange prank of the bal- loting: Last spring before the national conventions Democratic senators up for election in the East were hoping for the nomination of Al Smith and Herbert Hoover. Hoover, they figured, would be weak in their States, while Al would be strong enough to help pull them through. And they wanted all the help they could get. This was true of Peter Gerry in Rhode Island, Dave Walsh in Massachusetts, Cope- land in New York, Edwards and Bay- ard in New Jersey and Bruce in Mary- land. Their calculations went wrong Only Walsh and Copeland survived the debacle. Copeland ran far ahead of his ticket to beat a man who ought to have been an unusually strong can- didate. On the other hand, Democratic sen- ators up for reelection in the West looked with rather gloomy forbodings on the prospect of Al's nomination They figured Hoover would be a strong candidate in their States and that Al would pull them down to defeat. One of them said to me: “I wouldn't give a nickel to be renominated if Al is nominated.” He was on the verge of retiring, but finally decided to stay in. 7 aN —- x \ SENATOR PITTMAN. Not only did he win, but all his other Democratic colleagues running for re- election in that section managed to pull through. This list includes Ash- Pittman, of Nevada; Wheeler, of Mon- urst, of Arizona; Dill, of er. of Aon: tana. and King, of Utah. All of them By the 97th Senator Bos showed amazing strength in the face of the Hoover landslide. November 13. S a comeback performance, Sena- tor Burton's must be awarded first prize. To quit the Senate and then return to it after thirteen years by a majority of more than half a mil- lion votes is an achievement worth writing down in any man’s diary. And that’s what Burton, the grand old man of Buckeye politics, now 77 years old, has done by way of climaxing his career of nearly 50 years of public life. If Burton had never retired from the Senate, there probably would never have been any Harding adminictration. In 1914, as his term drew to an end, Bur- ton was confronted by the necessity of choosing to run again or quit. Echoes of the Bull Moose turmoil were still resounding rather harshly over the Buckeye political landscape. The Re- publican party was badly split. Bur- ton had remained regular and supported Taft in 1912. It was obvious that he could have a renomination on a Silver platter, but he decided the risk of defeat was too great. and announced his retirement. As it later turned out, however, he probably would have been reelected in a walk. Burton's withdrawal gave Warren Harding his chance. He obtained the nomination and won easily. That brought him out of the obscurity of State politics into the limelight of na- tional affairs and put him directly on the road to the White House. Six years after his election to the Senate, Harding was elected to the Presidency. The death of Frank Willis last spring, opened the way for Burton's return to the Senate. He won the nomination to fill the vacancy without a serious struggle. I don’t think they have fin- ished counting his majority in the election. They were hard pushed to find an issue against the old man. To injure him among the women, they charged he was a bachelor. The charge was true, but it didn’t seem to hurt him. Burton, in my judgment, is one of the few surviving statesmen on Capi- tol Hill. By reason of his long expert- ence in domestic legislation and his broad knowiedge of international af- fairs, he will be weicomed back to the Senate with open arms. As one of. Her- bert Hoover's personal and political inti- mates, we may reasonably expect him to be one of the most influential fig- ures in the Senate. Despite his age, he is one of the most alert men intellectually I know. He expects to remain in the harness until he Is 90 and I wouldn't be surprised if he did. \W for an old-fashioned inaugural It hasn’. had one for years and the citizens are trying hard to get a boom started to make March 4 next a gay and festive occasion. They want to nave a big parade down Pennsylvania avenue, with hundreds of thousands of visitors, and then a ball in the evening. Borah and: Charley McNary are al- ready squabbling over the necessity for an extra seSsion for farm relief and tariff revision after March 4. Borah in- Sists it would be a “gross betrayal of the voters” not to have one. McNary thinks it would be wholly unnecessary. Me has his new farm-relief bill ready and thinks: it should be put through at the approaching short session without difficulty Maybe so, but the measure we finaliy pul through and have signed November 15. ASHINGTON is just pining away by the President, either Coolidge or Hoover, in my opinion, will bear little resemblance to th® bill that made Mc- Nary and haugen famous. Now for the influx of deserving Re- publicans seeking office under the new administration. I'll bet they will be SENATOR WALSH thicker than a swarm of seventeen- year locusts. I don't blame Hoover for putting a lot of miles between himself and Washington until the 4th of March November 17.

Louveciennes, France, Nov. 24 (A.P.) Joffre, he whose moves were with army corps and groups of armies, sits in a little garden kiosk these ine autumn afternoons playing checkers with his wife. Sometimes Dr. Tuffler, his near- est neighbor, drops in to engage the marshal in a spirited game of back- gammon, singular contrast to those ter- rible days in the early part of the war when Joffre loomed in the imagination of France like a demi-god, a huge per- sonality, immovably calm, radiating power. I saw him first in my second visit io the front, where | went in December, 1914, with a letter from ,former Presi- dent. Millerand, the’ minister of war. Joffre’s headquarters were at Romilly, on the Seine, in the high school build- ing. The silence of the town was ex- traordinary. We were cautioned by the sentinels a mile out not to honk, that the general didn’t allow blowing the horn within sound of headquarters. Military autos were swiftly arriving and leaving the schcol inclosure almost continuously and noiselessly except for the hum of the motors’ Voices in the offices even were subdued. Gen. Joffre, massive, expressionless, reposeful, gazed with large kind eyes and was wholly uncommunicative. He is still restrained in speech, but rather from th~ habit of a lifetime than from unwillingness to talk. Has Finished Memoirs. “Yes, I have finished my memoirs,” said he today. “I have just signed the last of the 800 pages.” The marshal, according to official form, has initialed each sheet of type- written manuscript. He expects at some time to publish his work in two volumes @ “But not now,” said he. “I do not wish to injure any one or to stir up controversies. I have written the rec- ord of events with which I was con- cerned. There it is, for publication some day. I give the documents. Others may form their opinions from them.” The marshal was no doubt alluding to the parts played in the battle of the Marne by Gallieni and others. “I wonder,” remarked Mme. Joffre, “how many people would have claimed to have t the battle of the Marne, had it been lost.” “The French army won the battle of the Marne,” said the marshal. “It is enough that the French army saved France. The individual part need not be considered.” “You have some chapters on the American Army?” “Oh, yes, but there is nothing con- troversial in them.” The marshal spoke in cordial terms of Gen. Pershing. He was interested in knowing that Gen. Pershing also is delaying indefinitely the publication of his book on the war. The marshal fully realizes, perhaps better than any other French commander or statesman. the difficulties Gen. Pershing had and “7 MARSHAL JOFFRE. the firmness with which he avoided being drawn into the various groups striving for power anzl influence, such as the Painleve and Petain groups and the continuous British effort to control. Joffre understood all that, for one reason, because being virtually retired from active command he was in a po- sition to observe calmly. His memoirs, however, will, it seems, pass» lightly over the strenuous controversies re- specting the organization and employ- ment of the American Army. He deals with the immense results of American effort. “Marshal Jofre seems to live in eclipse,” the writer said to Col. Phillipe Bunau-Varilla the other day. “Joffre likes to live in eclipse. He}. does not care for the Serce lights that beat on high place,” replied the colonel. “Modest Men Soon Forgotten.” “Still, it seems extraordinary that Joffre’s name should not have been mentioned in the anniversary at Meaux, September 9, of the battle of the Marne. The victory was celebrated without so much as a mention of Joffre.” “The modest man who forgets him- self,” observed Bunau-Vgrilla, dryly, “is soon forgotten by others.” Joffre is, of course, not forgotten by the mass of his countrymen, but he would rather decline than accept invi- tations. Some political currents are against him, old jealousies survive, yet they do not appear t: trouble the mar- shal. Foch, whom he advanced, is a loyal friend and a frequent visitor at Louveciennes, and so are the Marquis de Chambrun and ien. Castelnau. The marshal’s health has not been alto- gether good. | “TI take precautions,” said he. “] find at 77 that I must be careful.” % > > ald Tells Interviewer, as He Plays Checkers With His Wife of MSS. His breakfast consists of a slice of bread and a glass of milk. His lunch- eon and dinner are light, vegetables and fruit largely. scarcely any meat His figure is grewing slender. He is not at all the thick-bodied marshal Prt Mager America in 1917. He has had to order new uniforms, a complete series, recently. However, except at his headquarters, he prefers ‘a loose- worn lounge suit. Old Age Is Tranquil. Marshal Joffre’s old age is tranquil, tranquil because of the inner and the outer calm in wuith he lives. He is still theoretically in active service, as marshais are never retired. He has large and beautiful rooms in the War College in Paris for offices. with a small staff, a major. a licutenant, Aa secretary. The marshal receives official visitors there by appointment and deals with oificial correspondence, of which ne has considerable. Military questions of the higher sort are referred to him by the war council for his judgment and comment. His papers on these sub- jects are described as models of com- pact lucidity He and Mme Joffre have a flat in the Rue de la Pompe, but they pass mst of the year at the place they have been creating here and in which they, par- ticularly Mme. Joffre, have put much thought and love. They had a farm not far away. and they occasionally walked in the forest that stood in the high ground of their present home. “I believe you could see Paris from here,” remarked Joffre to his wife one day, and when they went back to their cottage he looked with an engineer's eye at a topographical map of the re- gion. we “Yes, we could have a wonderful near view with Paris beyond,” he said. Fine Park Developed. This was six years ago. He bought ten acres. They sold the farm and have been finding occupation and enjoyment in building and developing a park, orchards and gardens. Mme. Joffre designed the pavilion, a beautiful white structure with a columned portico shining among the trees. One might call it a high-cellinged bungalow, for all the rooms are on the same level, ex- cept some for domestics artfully con- cealed in a galleried corner. Quite half the house is a large living room, the wide circular windows at one end looking out on the gardens with a far view cityward, Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower are visible from the foot of the gardens. The living room is T shaped, the din- ing room being an alcove forming the base of the T. Mme. Joffre got the idea from an ancient house in Bor- deaux.

HOUSE TO BREATHE WASHED AIR Wht CONGRESS MEETS New System Installed Pro- vides Ventilators Like That in Theaters. PLANS FOR SENATE AWAIT REMODELING There Will Be None for Over Year Should Extra Session Be Called. Pasteurized air such as sweeps through the larger movie palaces, will fill the chamber of the House of Rep- resentatives when it is thrown open for the short session on December 3. In the Senate chamber however, the air will be the same as it has been in the past The installation of a new ventilat- ing system in the House during the present recess marks the _ successful culmination of a long fight for better air in the Capitol, a fight that began almost as soon as the House and Sen- ate wings were completed At the last session Representative Edward T Taylor, of Colorado, in com- menting on the bad air in the Capitol, said: “] think that the record shows that about 300 senators and representatives have died in the last twenty years, either while they were in Congress cr immediately after going out. The death rate has been very high.” $323,000 Is Voted. The period of talking and complain- ing ended when Coneress, at the last session, voted an appropriation of $323,000 for a new ventilating system for the House and Senate chambers. Work was begun on the system in the House as soon as the gave! had sound- ed adjournment, and the job now stands completed. But the job in the Senate has had tq walt. David Lynn, arcMtect of the Capitol, explained yesterday that it will not be possible to install the’ new ventilating system in thé Senate chamber until the present plans for relocating that chamber have been carried out. And ‘right here is something for the sena- tors to worry about. | It has been expected that the work ‘of relocating the chamber would begin lat the end of the short session on March 4, but if an extra session is ‘called by President-elect Hoover this 'would manifestly be impossible. Thus ithe entire project—relocating chamber ‘and charging it with better air—might |have to wait for a year or more. Caucus Room ts Suggested, A suggestion has been made that the hold their meetings during the extra session in the large caucus ‘room in the Senate Office Building so that work can be started in the cham- senators ber itself, but it is doubtful if this would be practicable. Meantime Architect Lynn and the men who have been given the contract for the work are hoping that an extra session will not be necessary. Like the House chamber, the Senate chamber is without windows and is in- closed on all four sides by corridors and rooms. While nothing can be done to improve this situation on the House side, architects have figured out a way owhereby the Senate chamber can be moved back until it is in direct com- munication with the exterior of the building, thus permitting fresh alr and sunshine to stream through an array. of large windows. Briefly. the plan for relocating the chamber is simply to move it back to the east wall. will be backed up. to this wall, and there will be a window nearby through which he will be able to see the Li- brary of Congress. Much Shifting Necessary. The plan, however, is far from simple. For one thing, there will be a great shifting of office rooms, corridors, and The press gallery, for ex- ample, is scheduled to be moved from its present place overlooking the Vice President, to the south side of the chamber. And the correspondents who work in the gallery aré none too pleased with the prospect. Under the new ventilating system in the House chamber, the air is “washed” before it is pumped into the galleries and onto the floor. The air is taken in through a duct or opening from a suit- able point and. is then put through @ ‘ preheater,” a system of heating coils which, in the winter time, will warm up the air so that later on it can be properly conditioned. From this point the air passes through a series of sprays, in which it is washed. Thus the dirt and solid particles are removed, In warm weather, the air is cooled just as it is in the modern movie cathedral. Archduke Leopold Hails “King” Otto Austrian Nobleman Sends Prince, 16, Message of His Allegiance. New York, Nov. 24 (A.P.).—Archduke Leopold of Austria, now in New York, proclaimed today his allegiance to young Otto II as King of Hungary. Otto was .16 years old on November 20 and since that is the Hapsburg age of majority, the Legitimist party has an- nounced allegiance to him as its mon- arch, : ; Leopold, through his representative here, made public a cablegram he had sent to Otto. It read: “I express to your majesty my abso- lute loyalty on the occasion of your majesty’s birthday.” The Archduke’s statement said he planned to remain in this country at least another six months. ; The throne of Hungary, vacant since the late King Charles abdicated in 1918, has had several claimants, among them Archduke Albrecht. One group of the Hungarian people ::as favored Otto and another Albrecht, while a third inclines toward the selection of a foreign prince. Still another faction has advocated abolition of. the monar- chy.

The will was perfectly clear and Jogi- ca) except for that one perplexing clause with the almost idiotic ending Emanuel was a shrewd man an trusted so much to his own Judgment that he used no lawyer for drawing up the will, so Robert could get no as- sistance from any source. Old Joyner was as puzzled as he was, and both spent many hours in discussion as [90 what it meant. Robert was now living at “Deep Wells,” which was supervised by Joy- ner, and the more he puzzled over the intriguing clause the more anxious he became to find out what it meant. He decided that the one thing to do to clear up the mystery was to make a thorough search of the house for any portrait or drawing which required framing, for this was about the most intelligent idea he could draw from the wording. Pérhaps on a picture he could find his answer. For a week he looked throuch the house. He found musty old pictures in the attic but they were destitute of any clues But one sunny after- noon, as he was vaguely and helplessly staring at the rows of bookshelves in the library, his eyes became glued to a volume ir the center section. With startled surprise he read the title, 4», . S The Facts in the Case. : ‘J volumes of an encyclopedia set and the title was of the freakish kind often found on encyclopedia books, and in- dicated that the contents of that book ran, in alphabetical order, from the word “Pace” to the word ‘Frame.” Robert seized the book sat down at t“2 desk in the room and hastily be- gan examining the book, page by page looking for an inscription or inserted note. It was an old encyclopedia, the vol- ume large and bulky and the pages dry and awkward to handle.

Examination of the book showed that among the last 50 pages was one page which through faint underlinings of certain words, ~ave a moral motto. Ob- viously, the mysterious sentence in the will was intendea to lead important findings, but to a joke. Basing their beliefs on what Joyner had te gain from Stoddard’s death and the fact that he was in the house when the young man died, the servant was accused of the crime and held for in- vestigation. The Accused’s Version, This consisted solely in a denial that he had anything to do with the mur- der, if it was that. He said Stoddard had breakfasted and lunched on foods which were in the house and which were available for inspection. He defied them to find any poison among his be- longings and denied that he even knew the young man was in the library when he met his death. The Problem.

Chemical Research Plans Cooperation in Industry ‘\ Organization at Geneva to Be International Ex- change of Ideas. a Science is striving to effect world im- provement in industry comparable with that which the League of Nations seeks to bring about in political and social conditions. Dr. Atherton Seidell, of the United States Hygienic Laboratory, Washington, declares in a, statement which has been made public by the American Chemica] Socicty. Chemists have established at Geneva, Dr. Seidell says, an organization to pro- vide for a more general international exchange and utilization of knowledge gained by industrial research. “Friendly technical cooperation of this kind between industrial groups of various nations,” he points out, “may be expected to result in greater har- mony in arranging economic differences. “The Geneva organization, is really a liaison group for conducting affairs between chemical industries of. dif- ferent countries. It is thus possible for those engaged in production in one country to enter into relations with a similar group in another. “The advantage of this to general progress can hardly be overestimated. The avoidance of duplications and loss of effort through lack of knowledge is greatly diminished, -with a_ resulting gain for all. “This kind of cooperation is partic- ularly desirable under European con- ditions, where the political and lan- guage barriers interpos® such tremen- dous obstacles to friendly relations With rapidly increasing international trade, the necessity for more widespread adoption of the plan becomes greater. “It is probable that even American” chemical industry will find it advan- tageous to avail itself of such services as are offered by the Geneva organ- ization.” 3 The organization is known as the Societe d'Etudes Chimiques pour I’In- dustrie and is under the direction of Joseph Breslauer. It is composed of men trained in pure and applied chem- istry and, in addition, having a knowl- edge of the languages, industrial con- ditions and mentalities of the several European nations. 7 Dr, Breslauer was born in Poland, was educated in Germany and has lived more than twenty years in the French part of Switzerland. He has spent “4 DR. ATHERTON SEIDELL, research and in its technical applica- tion. Others of his staff have had equally diversified training and expe- rience. The plan of the organization is that of an incorporated company, the shares of which may be subscribed by chemi- cal industries of different countries These latter then have a voice in the direction of its affairs. , They may choose problems for study and take part in deciding how the re- sults, which are usually covered by patents, are to be utilized by the sev- eral shareholders, and upon what terms they may be licensed for use by others. In general, the problems studied are of international industrial importance. ‘such as methods of nitrogen fixation. phosphorus production, the develop- ment of concentrated fertilizers, cyana- mide and the profitable utilization of the by-products in these industries. The experimental research in con- nection with these problems may be conducted in chemical laboratories o1 plants located in different countries. or at Geneva in the central research laboratory, and in the experimental factory scale plant at Chevres, about 3 about an equal amount. of time in pure of miles from Geneva. | An autopsy revealed that Robert had | not to any, | Moon Is in Total _ - ARGENTINA {CNORES, INVITATION TO JOIN PEACE CONFEREWEE President Irigoyen Still Has Time, However, to Order Embassy Staff to Act. TROUBLE OVER TARIFF IS BEHIND MOVE, BELIEF Three Other Nations Tell of Plan to Send Delegates Here December. 10. By WILFRID FLEISHER. President Irigoyen of Argentina has failed to confirm the apointment -of delegates to the forthcoming Pane American Conciliation and Arbitration Conference which is to meet in Wash- ington on December 10, and it is likely that the Argentine government will not be represented at the conference, according to reliable word here. In that case, Argentina will be the only one of 20 nations invited to partici- pate, which will not be represented when the conference is called to order. Invitations to the conference were sent out by Secretary of State Kellogg in the name of the American Goverfi- ment on June 20 when President de Alvear was at the head of the Argen- tine government, and an acceptance was received by the State Department from Argentina naming that country’s two delegates to the conference. Since then, a new administration has come into office in Argentina under Hipolito Irigoyen as president and the latter has failed to take any steps to either confirm the appointment of the delegates designated by his predecessor or to name others to fill their place. It is admittedly too late now {fer Argentina to send delegates to Wash- ington, since they could not arrive in time for the conference. Embassy Staff Could Act. Should President Irigoyen, howevefP, change nis mind, which according to information in well informed quarters seems unlikely, he could still instruct members of the Argentine Embassy staff here to attend the conference, although the majority of countries have named eminent jurists, since the conference will be largely of a juridical nature. Three other Latin-American coun- tries, Salvador, Nicaragua and Haiti, heve not’ yet appointed their delegates to the conference, but have given as- surances to the State Department that they will be represented. While no official explanation has been advanced as to Argentina’s failure to appoint delegates, the United States has been manifest for some time past in connection with the increased American tariff on cer- tain products from the Argentina and has received added impetus recently with the proposed further increase by the United States Tariff Commission of the duty on flaxseed and corn. Argentina’s disinclination to cooper- ate with the United States has been further evide. ed bv her failure to accept the Kellogg antiwar treaty, which has: been subscribed to by most of the nations of the world. Latin-American diplomatic circles here do not look for the return to Wash- ington of Manuel Malbran, Argentine Ambassador, who sailed for Buenos Aires last week after only two months’ stay in the United States. Reports of Resignation, The Ambassador is reported to be contemplating resigning because of dis- pleasure that Argentine’s invitation to President-elect Hoover to visit that country should have been forwarded directly to the American Government instead of being relayed through the Argentine Embassy here. Inquiries made by the State Depart- ment of Latin-American countries, which President-elect Hoover intended to virit, as to whether he would be wel- come, were made both through the American Embassy or Legation in those countries as well as through their dip- lomatic representatives in -Washington. In the case of Argentina, the State Department first received word of that country’s pleasure at Mr. Hoover's con- templated visit through the American Embassy at Buenos Aires, which trana- mitted the information to the Depart- ment. s ' While Ambassador Malbran may have felt some slight surprise at the man- ner in which his. government conveyed its invitation to Mr. Hoover, it is un= derstood that there hav; been other questions which have not been handled to the entire satisfaction of the Ambas- sador and that, charged with the duty of cultivating friendly relations with this country, he has felt a lack of co- operation on the part of his govern- ment. : Irigoyen Radical Leader. President; Irigoyen, of Argentina, is serving for the second time as chief executive of his country, having pre- viously held office from 1916 to 1922. For 30 years he nas been the leader of the radical party, the “Union Civica Radical,’’ which has now split into twe factions of which he leads the “Per- sonalist” wing, the more radical section. He wes a strong supporter of the League of Nations when it was first. established but recalled the Argentine delegation from Geneva in 1920 when various proposals of Argentina regard- ing. procedure were rejected by the league. During his last administration he championed a movement for a Spanish- American Union of nations which would have.included all Latin-American : nations but would have barred. che United States, but his idea failed of realization. vo The United States has no treaties of: either arbitration or vonciliation with Argentina, although a number of such. treaties are in, effect between this country and other Latin-American na tions. ‘ > 7] Eclipse on Tuesday™ The phenomenon of the moon going into total eclipse will occur early Tues@ ~ day morning, it was announced yestere — day by the United States Naval Ob-) servatory. = The mcon will go into partial shadow: at 1:25 a. m., and will enter the totak- shadow at 2:24 a. m. and will be totally. * eclipsed at 3:33 a. m.

MeNutt Indorses Coolidge on Navy] Urges Legion to Work for Increase in Cruisers; Necessary, He Says. Chicago, Nov. 24 (A.P.).—Paul V. McNutt, national commander of the American Legion called on the organi- gation tonight to support President Coolidge’s recent declaration of the ne- cessity for additional cruisers. He ad- dressed the Cook County council: “The President’s naval program,” he said “is America’s answer to the fall- ure of the Geneva conference. It 1s the only answer which the other na- tions of the world will understand. The legion heartily indorses the Presi- dent’s clear-cut statement of the American policy.” Only the United States, he said, has kept the spirit of the agreement on the 5-5-3 ratio of naval strength reached at the Washington conference. It not Oniy has kept the agreement but has gone, further, he added, until now the naval strength of this country is far below that of Great Britain and only He recalled the Anglo-French pact and added: “The British navy and the French navy would be so near unlimited that the principle of limitaiton virtually would be abandoned.” anit: - sel th igen X 4 we ‘ 7 ae \e rr sr) . | ' THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER ied BUILDING 10 REFORM WOMEN COMPLETED Sargent Gives Alderson, W. Va., Institution’s Keys to Head at Ceremonies. GOVERNMENT ENDS FORD OTOGK FIGHT Holds Futile Any Attempt to Collect $34,000,000 After Two Defeats. MRS. WILLEBRANDT TALKS, —— ee eee Special to The Washington Post. Alderson, W. Va., Nov. 24.—The Al- derson Federal Industrial Institution for Delinquent Women, built a‘ a cost of $2,250,000, was formally opened here today when Attorney General John G. Sargent presented symbolic keys of the institution to the superintendent, Dr. Mary B. Harris. Federal and State officials, national leaders of women's organizaitons, prison welfare societies and other associations were present. The Attorney General paid a tribute to women of the country in a brief outline of events leading to the con- struction of the Alderson institution, established by Congress as a means of seeking the rehabilitation of women convicted of violating Federal laws. Previously it had been the custom to confine such women in county work- houses, reformatories or other insti- tutions. Mr. Sargent said Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, Assistant Attorney Gen- eral and one of the speakers today, had watched over plans for the Alderson project and “fought for it like a mother would fight for her child.” He said Mrs. Willebrandt “hates sin, but loves | sinners.” Mrs. Willebrandt said it was now recognized that greater reform might be accomplished by bringing together individual offenders and treating them individually rather than treating them a thousand different ways in a dozen institutions, “At this institution,” she said, opportunity is presented to correct the evils whether they are physical orders or mental maladjustment or lack of opportunity The inmates them- selves are brought in and asked to help study their own cases and the absence of star chamber sessions encourages the offenders to live like useful per- sons.” The Assistant Attorney General said the new system adopted at Alderson would in the long run prove to be the most economical, and instead of be- coming a breeder of new recruits in crime, the women sent here would be made protectors of society. Provisions have been made at the institution to train women sent there to become self- supporting. Gen. Angel Garcia Pena, Mexican Veteran, Dead Mexico City, Nov. 24 (N.Y.W.N.8).— | Gen. Angel Garcia Pena, war minister under President Francisco Madero and commanding general of the Mexican army opposite the American Army at Vera Cruz in 1914, died today. He was 71 years old. He was a graduate of Chapultepec Military Academy and for many years he specialized in topographical and geographical studies. Under President Diaz he mapped the Yaqu} country. When the American troops landed at Vera Cruz he was given chief com- mand of the Mexican forces. He re- tired when the revolution triumphed. (Copyright, 1028.)

Treasury officials are now preparing the final papers upon the issuance of which the Government will formally abandon any further attempt to col- lect about $34,000,000 from former minority stockholders of the Ford Mo- tor Co., among whom is Senator Cou- vens (Republican), Michigan. No official announcement was avail- able yesterday, but parties to the long and hard fought contest over the col- lection attempt were agreed that the definite announcement would be made shortly. When Henry Ford several years azo bought out the entire minority hold- ings in his motor company enterprise, the Government accepted a payment of approximately $20,000,000 from the minority, as income tax on the trans- action. Senator Couzens and John and Horace Dodge, automobile manufac- turers of Detroit; John W. Anderson and Philip, Paul and David Gray, and Mrs. Rosetta House, Senator Couzens’ sister, were among those involved. The Treasury reopened the whole pro- | ceeding, and though Senator Couzens charged that he was being attacked in the matter for political reasons, de- /'manded payment of 834,000,000 addi- | tional. The Government brought its case before the Board of Tax Appeals, |'which body ruled last spring that the | minority had paid taxes tn full and in | adicdiition indicated that they had over- paid their taxes on the transaction by | approximately 82,000,000 The case was also taken into the | Federal courts by Alice Kales, another member of the minority group, who won a directed verdict against the Gov- ernment. ‘ There |s still time for the Government | lo Appeal the tex board's decision to the | Federal courts, but Clarence M.

Dallaire, Fordham quarter, fumbled a Mooney punt on his | 5-yard line. ‘Tomaini. recovered for Georgetown and Duplin tallied the touchdown on a criss-cross. A 15-yard pass, Hudak to Dwyer, brought the second score a few min- utes later.

Two minutes later, with the ball in Georgetown’s possession in the middle of the field, Leary snared a 45-yard pass from Scalzi, another substitute, and plunged past two Fordham players over the goal line. Mooney kicked three of the four goals attempted. As is in the case of all of George- town’s games, Mooney’s Kicking was su- perexcellent. Whenever Fordham threat- ened to get too famillar with George- town territory the Blue and Gray line would tighten up and check the Ma- roons and then Big Jim would send one of his sky-high punts shooting through the air, always with ample altitude for. his ends to get down to beat the Ford- ham back right down. in his tracks. And how the Georgetown squad tackled. It was as pretty tackling as has been seen here this year. There was no shadow boxing with a Fordham man carrying the ball. When he was hit, he was down and stayed down. . Speedy little Eddie Leary, who, by the way, was somewhat of a star himself. took a hand at the tackling, and his work backing up the line was superb.

The tall, muscled youth has attracted the tention of Elmer Ripley, who will coach the Georgctown Team this year, and Ripley, professional player, is most enthusi- astic over the prospects of developt:g Sexton into a court star. Ripley, who was formerly with the Palace Club and who has played pro- fessional basketball for many years, taught the Hilltoppers last year, and if there is any one requirement which makes for success of this style of game, which Aat- calls for many block plays, it is size—- | and Sexton has that. He is over 6 feet tall and weighs 190 pounds. Despite his size, Sexton handles him- self nicely on thexbasketball floor. He first attracted the attention of Coach Riptey by his ability to outjump every man on the squad.

A crowd of 10,000 witnessed the game. Two safeties by Centenary gave Loy- ola an advantage of 4 points in the first few minutes of play. The first safety was made from the Loyola kick- off. Centenary came back in the sec- ond quarter with its only touchdown of the game. Loyola made 13 points in the third quarter and 6 in the last. Centenary’s star half back, Hanna, failed to shine, while Bucky Mcore. the Loyola star, was too well covered for sensational work, Joe Decell, Loyola tull back, played brilliantly through more than half the game with b‘ood dripping som a deep gash in‘the head. ” FISK BEATS KNONVIL Lk Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 24 (U.P.)~- Fisk: Univaenay defeated ee Col- jege here tis afternoon, 20. to Seok fore a crowd 3,000. be) Tarheel Yearlings Beat Virginians, 21-6 Special to The Washington Post.

He was thirteenth in stolen bases during the season of 1928 and seventh in 1927. “Never knew much about base running, though,” says Johnny, “until George Moriarty coached me, George showed me how to study the pitchers and get my lead off the base.

Drissel, Fountain and Florance, of Tech, in Back Field. By GARRETT WATERS, CORE another triumph for Coach Elmer Hardell and his McKinley- Tech High School Team that won S the District scholastic championship so decisively. The selection of The Wash- ington Post’s All-High Football Team of 1928 is an honest reflection of the ability that carried the Tech players through the series unbeaten, and seven members of the squad have gained posi- tion on The Post’s all-star lMne-up. Only three of the five schools in the series figure in The Post’s All-High Eleven. Tech, with its seven ap- MEMBERS OF THE WASHINGTON POST’S ALL-HIGH FOOTBALL TEAM pointees, takes the major glory in the, distribution of individual honors, but the runner-up Eastern Team gains a respectable share with three of its members awarded . berths. Central placed one man on the team, Dut not ® single member of the Western or Business squads was ranked all-high timber on the first team Tech's strength was almost evenly distributed between the line and the back field with three of its ball carriers and four linemen selected. Eastern showed its greatest power in the line and the trio that Coach Mike Kelley placed on the first team were linemen. Central supplied the fourth back field man to complete the team. In a series studded with brilllant individual performances, The Post's all-high players stood out tke beacons in many cases, and the writer was given little cholce in his selections. The fact that Tech’s seven stars were playing on a winning team did not aiter his convictions, so boldly did = they stand out above rivals, The play- ers were selected for their con- sistent brilllaney and versatility, with due regard to the help they received from their team mates. George Mehler, Central’s stocky full back, the only man of his team to be awarded a place on the first group. forestalled the possible selection of an all-Tech backfield, but there were none to challenge seriously Mehler’s selec- tion. Playing with the weak Central Team, Mehler’s performmice was doubly Orilllant. As a defensive back he had no superior in the series and was the spirit of Central's own defensive. “nreat. Ecdie Brownfield, Western matinstay $ second choice for the full back posi- ‘ion. The individual star of the West- rn Team, Brownfield, nevertheless sailed to rival Mehler’s prowess, al- ‘hough a more versatile ball carrier. de, too, was a capable back but lacked the smashing play of Mehler. It was a pleasure to name Howard Wlorence and Holmes Fountain, of Tech, as the half backs of the team. Chis pair of 145-pounders can stand On their record in the series and defy “ll challengers. The way they hit the ackles and skirted the ends and their faultless handling of the ball was easy so watch and they were the outstand- A | olunger par excellence and a constant | S.

Their faculty of sreaking loose for long runs probably nore than any other habit stamped Nem all-high material. There were other good backs in the series. Billy Wood, Eastern captain, and Lawrence Plumley, of Central, were fast, hard+running ball carriers difficult tu check, but they never rose to the heights of Florance and Fountain despite the latter pair’s brilliant interference. Nor could they match the Tech pair’s speed and effectiveness in the secondary defense. The “brains” of Tech's’ well-chosen attack was Homer Drissel and at quar- . ver back he wae outstanding. Directing the team in almost faultless fashion, Drissel inspired Tech to its full power and he was no drawback to the team On any Other count. Drissel was the best punter in the series before the games ended, the best passer and unde- niably the best in his choice of plays. He engineered Tech's sensational for- ward passing game with rare good judg- ment and dispensed accurate long-dis- tance heaves to ends and fellow backs. Coach Hardell has described him as the best Tech quarterback since Price, not excluding Gordon Kessler, present star of the Maryland back field As a safety man, Drissel had no equal. Another quarter back of All-High caliber was Jakie Lewis, little field gen- eral of the Business Téam who was, per- ‘haps, a better ball carrier than Drissel but lacked the polish of the Tech star in handling his team and was shaded ‘!by Drissel in punting ability. He engi- neered Business’ passing attack which was incomparable with Tech’s directed by Drissel. The other quarter backs of the series aid not rate with Drissel and Lewis. Tech just failed of placing both its -ends on the All-High first team. Brad- ~ley Edelblut and Willis Benner are the ‘ Prank Holland, Eastern sort of a pair that a team is seldom Dlessed with in a single season but captain last year, crowded Benner off the first team Edelblut was the outstanding re- ceiver of ferward passes in the series and a deadly tackler, smart in the penetration of opposing in- terference. His bulk was a tre- mendous asset to the Tech running attack and he was an important -e@og ih the wide end runs of Foun- tain and Florance. | Holland, a passable great receiver of “passes, found his greatest asset in. his smashing defensive play and ability to diagnose the opposition’s defense Al- ternating at end and in the back field, the lost none of his greatness. . Joseph Kengla, of Business, was the only other outstanding end of the series, He made a tremendous share of the Business tackles, but lacked the polished play of Benner, Holland and Edeiblut. ~ .. As great a pair of Ligh school tackles in the history of the series was pro- duced in Jakie Edwards, of Tech, and Tom’ Nally, of Eastern. Both of ideal ‘build, they employed their physique wisely.

Two more factors in the successes of Tech and Eastern were Capt. Oehmann and James Montague, respectively, at the guard posts. Tech and Eastern, undeniably presented the best lines in the series of the work of these two players who were in a large measure re- sponsible. Stamping themselves as All-High timber by frequently spilling running plays behind the line of scrimmage this pair supplemented their faculty of diagnosing the oppo- sition attack by closely following the eball in the fumbling that was rampant in many games.

By GARRETT WATERS (Staff Correspondent of The Post). ORRISTOWN, Tenn., Noy. 24. Washington supporters should not feel at all depressed at the 19-to-6 defeat of the Tech Eleven at the. hands of the ‘Tuscaloosa Back Bears yesterday. In the Southeryers, Teck was up against probably the strongest foe it will ever meet. The Black Bears, such as the Tusca- loosa Team was known, lived up to even more than their reputation as the strongest schoolboy eleven in Dixie Tech, though, gave them thelr greatest scare since the start of their remarkable record, which hes been 39 straight vic- tories since 1924. It was the Southerners’ extreme weight that beat Tech, coupled with their proved ability. It was this weight shadow that Hterally overpowered Tech in the long run, Never before this season have Coach Hardell's Maroon and Gray Warrlors been sub ject to so constant a drive as the Southerners possessed, Thelr huge back field aces, Holley and Cochrane, hit the sturdy Tech trio, Winston, Oehman and Oyster, in such a hammer-like manner that they were unable to stand the strain, as the later quarters of the game brought out, This was the style of play Southerners used throughout. Never once did they get into position to score by medium or runs or dashes, but through their drive and uncanny “punch.” — Tech's showing proved conclusively its superiority over Central, Eastern and others in the winning of the high school championship and the gaining of the right to meet the Tus- caloosans in an intersectional clash According to Tuscaloosa fans, never before had they seen so well drilled a team or so well balanced an ag- gregation as the “Gray horde”, which proved to be just what this name im- lies. r How chunky little Holmes Fountain engineered that 80-yard run will al- ways be remembered by those most closely connected with the game. It was this sprint that brought the 10,000 or more witnesses to their feet and put them on edge throughout Fountain’s run was com- weaved through right tackle, reversed his field after passing the line of scrimmage, and galloped down the line with three back field mates knocking Tuscaloosa would-be tacklers out of the way. This 80-yard run came on the first play after Tus- caloosa had scored its first touchdown in the second quarter. i Leo Winston, too, came into the limelight in this run. It was he who managed to. elude all interference to alongside of Fountain in his last the Southerners’ | Way. safety man, out of the Coach Hap Hardell was more than satisfied with the showing of his team. “They did their best and they played in a manner which would have won 9 out of 10 games. They were up against a real team, Dut never did they give up. 1 am proud of them,” ; Frank Daniels, principal of Tech, | Who is accompanying the team, also was ‘enthusiastic. “The showing of the | boys is a credit to Tech, and I’m proud |}of them. and Hap Hardell, too. I'll |} never forget Fountain’'s run. It thrilled |}me to the core, I'd like to say also | that nothing better could have been | given the boys than this trip. It is an education itself.’ After the game yesterday the entire party was given a royal banquet by the student body of the Tuscaloosa High School. Following turkey dinner, the Techmen were entertained by the Ala- bama University Glee Club, which was heard at Morgan Hall of the univer- sity. Concluding the program was a dance given by the Tuscaloosa stu- dents in their gymnasium. Birmingham Southern Beaten in Grudge Game Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 24 (A.P.).— Football supremacy for 1928 in Bir- mingham’s private collegiate feud was settled this afternoon as grimly on the gridiron as was the rivalry that pre- ceded the game between Southern and Howard College which culminated in the death of a student. Howard won, 13 to 12, Howard scored twice in the third period on a recovered fumble and a long run. Southern tallied in the sec- ond and third periods with passes. Looked upon as Birmingham's olt- standing sports event of the year, the crowd was several thousand short of the record 17,000 attendance last year, which American Legion officials, spon- sors of the game, attributed to the Freeman, Birmingham Southern fresh- man, by Ollie Westbrook, Howard stu- dent, | : ‘Criticism was directed by citizens at the decision of college officials to have the game played following young Free- man’s death, which brought to a cli- max a period of disorderly hazing be- tween the two student hodies.

Lawless had the edge on Coles in punting, however. The Morgan ends, Cottman and Bell, played brilliantly on the defense. Howard made seven first downs to three for Morgan and completed five out of nine passes to two out of four for Morgan. Howard was the more af- fected by penaities, losing 80 yards to 45 for Morgan.

Those who saw that conflict will never forget its nu- merous sparkling incidents. George- town had a powerful club that later whipped Lafayette, 13 to 7, in a post- season affair. , The Hilltoppers, boasting such super- numeraies as Jack Flavin, Rudy Com- stock, Paul Florence, Bill Kenyon, Zube Sullivan and others, were top-heavy favorites. What a jolt was in store for them! They had not reckoned with the spirit and determination of the Ma- rines, who knew that victory over Georgetown was the fruition of thelr goal. They played with a resolute pur- pose—not to leave the field defeated. And a team that won’t be beaten can’t be beaten. Georgetown, it must be admitted, ex- pected a snap and was not steeted for the whrilwind Marine attack that caught it unawares in the first quarter. Before the Hilltoppers knew what was happening, the Devil Dogs had scored a touchdown and the resulting point, giv- ing them a 7-0 command, a lead which they never relinquished. It was not until midway in the final period that Georgetown scored a touchdown. The dazzling Jack Flavin fetched a punt deep in his own zone, swung to one side of the field, then reversed his field and was soon loose of the pack, but was eventually over- hauled on the 11-yard mark. Georgetown surged forward with each stab at the Marine wall and, on the final charge, pushed across the Marines’ last white mark. “Georgetown blew the try for the extra point and the Marines were stil] in front by a one-point margin, 7 to 6.

Al Lassman, New York Univer- sity tackle, who was carried from the field unconscious in today’s game with Carnegie Tech here, suffered “a prob- able concussion,” examining surgeons at Mercy Hospital said tonight. It was at first reported that Lassman had received a possible fracture of the skull. Hospital doctors and the New York University Team physician said the in- jured player had regained conscious- ness and was: responding rapidly to treatment. X-ray prints, taken from all angles, failed to disclose any fractures of the skull or neck, and doctors were con- fident that the giant tackle suffered only the concussion and that his brain was not affected. Other X-rays were to be taken tonight. While the player remained in a semiconscious condition, some of the |} doctors thought he might be sufii- ciently recovered to make the return trip to New York on the New York University special train early tomor- row morning.

NABILITY to check the galloping prociivities of both Johnny Ringle and Alfred Marshall, slippery and speedy Gallaudet backs, proved the un- doing of the visiting Bridgewater Col- lege Team at Kendall Green yesterday afternoon, when they were snowed un- der an avalanche of an 84-to-0 score. It was Galaudét’s final game of the season and it also marked the end of Ringle’s convalesnce from a badly in- jured ankle which kept him out of the last two games. Disregarding a slight- ly shooting pain in his sore foot, Ringle gave a sensational display of |with ease and carrying the oval in 1 _at placement kicks, | Morgan College | task.

Altogether he crossed the goal line five times, reeling off 40, 60 and 80-yard runs on different occasions. He also used his boot in an unerring fashion—making good four attempts after Hokanson had previously missed the bar three times. . Hokanson started the fireworks by feigning a punt on Gallaudet’s fourth down and tore around the right end for 40 yards before he was downed. Weaver dodged his way 30 yards to Gallaudet’s first tally. Hokanson next shot a beautiful ball to Monaghan, .fol- lowing a successful advance to in 30 yards of Bridgewater's goal line, and the peppery Irishman clutched the ball ‘for the second touchdown. si+ Wi 4 In the second half Ringle dis placed Marshall, and after effect. ively sweeping aside his opponents to help Zieske advance 20 yards on a pretty end run, he took the bal! over the winning line.

M AT THE CHESS TABLE. | By WILLARD H. MUTCHLER. Martin C. Stark, son of club presi- Gent C. W. Stark, more than did him- self proud when he finished ahead of five competitors in the recent Class A-B tournament at the Capital City Chess Club and carried off first honors with a score of four wins and one loss. The younger Stark’s performance be- comes all the more meritorious when it is realized that in order to achieve his victory he defeated three players of Class A rating whilst he is classified in the lower ciass. In addition to win- ming first prize Martin also garnered the prize awarded the B player: having the highest percentage of wins. Stark disposed of Bettinger, A. Y. Hesse, C. W. Stark and Roberts while his lone loss was suffered at the hands of a brother B player, Kalmbach. Bet- tinger finished in second place by win- ning from A. Y. Hesse, C. W. Stark and Kalmbach. In addition to his loss to Martin Stark, Bettinger drew with Roberts. A. Y. Hesse and C. W. Stark finished tied for third and fourth. Hesse won from Kalmbach and Roberts. and lost to the two leaders. C. W. Stark drew with Hesse and his remain- ing scores were identical with the former's. Kalmbach won his game from _ Martin Stark but lost his other four ongagements. The final standing was: Player.

Resigns Cable Match Notes, No further news is at hand regarding the final outcome of the Washington vs London cable match and the unfin- ished games are in the hands of ad- judicator Dr. Max Euwe, champion of Holland. F. B. Waker's game with M. E Goldstein is under protest, as previous- ly reported. Shortly after the conclu- sion of the match Walker wrote to Team Capt. N. T. Whitaker as follows: “Referring to my game in Saturday's cable match: Having played a great deal by correspondence—I took part in the first Pillsbury national correspond- ence tourney—I felt that Mr. Goldstein was bound by his eighteenth move as sent. That was the rule I had always followed in correspondence play. “In the telegraph match Washington va. Manhattan Chess Club, played a number of years ago, Manhattan, sent a move which cost them a piece. They said that the move sent was not the move made on the board. We were playing according to the American chess code. which provided that moves sent should govern, and we held them to the rules. “When Mr. Lasker, the London rep- resentative, suggested that I could dis- regard the ‘erroneous’ move should I s0 desire, I replied that whatever my team captain says goes with me. Some time afterward he came to the board and mace the move, B-K5, and I played on in the belief that he had submitted the matter to you. “Furthermore, I claim @ decided ad- vantage in position when adjournment was had, and that inside of half a dozen moves this advantage would have been quite manifest. His king wouid have been under direct attack from my two rooks and bishop. “In conclusion I desire to call atten- tion to the fact, as you doubtless have verified. that my move 17 was correctly repeated in Mr. Goldstein's reply—(18) YTAWAZOKI, to which TI replied ., 18) YZOKIVAVI, and it was until my reply was transmitted any suggestion of an erroneous move was made.” And that’s that.

Before the War of 1812 a large pro- portion of the people of New England favored making an appeal to the British navy for protection against Napoleon. Pacifism had done its worst in this coun- try, reaching the point of national pusil- lanimity and humiliation. It is now at work trying to enfeeble the Navy to the point where it could not effectively de- fend the country’s commerce in the event of foreign war. More than one American pacifist has echoed the cowardly cry that went up 120 years ago, suggesting that America’s safety is best assured by Brit- ish ‘sea supremacy. Many pacifists hoyestly believe that world peace is at hand, through the agency of the Kellogg treaty. They hold that Great Britain, having agreed to that treaty, war between the two countries is more “unthinkable” than ever. Japan, also has accepted the treaty. Hence war in the Pacific is abolished. There is no other great navy. Therefore, an increase of the United States Navy contradicts the spirit of the Kellogg treaty and is provocative of war by making foreign nations suspicious of the United States. The right policy to pursue, according to pacifist reasoning, is to renounce war and prove good intentions by scrapping the Navy. If human nature and long experience did not give warning that this reasoning is false, Americans might be tempted to undertake the Quixotic adventure of disarming in the midst of .an armed world. But they have only to look at the War of 1812 and the World. War to see that national defenselessness does not keep the United States out of war; it merely invites war, and makes it more costly in money and blood. When nations are at war they do not hesitate to prey upon neutrals who can not defend them- selves. Treaties go by the board. Fortunately, the gullible and cowardly brand of pacifism does not direct Amer- ican policy. .A watchful President is on guard, and Congress is made up of patri- otic men., All are peace-loving, but very few of them believe in pusillanimous or purchased peace. They believe that the United States should be peaceable, and that it should also be capable of inspiring in other nations a desire to avoid war with this country. War with the United States can always be avoided by respect- ing its rights, but experience proves that no matter how neglectful the Govern- ment’may be in the matter of defenses, no nation can persistently violate Ameri- can rights with impunity. The Kellogg treaty should be promptly approved, but along with it must go prudent naval precautions against possi- ble aggression. Those who look for rati- fication of the Kellogg treaty and aban- donment of naval defense are in for an awakening. | The United States will not expose its ships on every sea to the tender mercies of foreign belligerents who have cast off the Kellogg treaty and all other laws of God and man. The spoils of' the United States are not available to any foreign pirate disguised, as a bel- ligerent. Without waiting for intolerable ; -sutrages to spur the Nation to defend it- self, defenses will be provided now, so. z.

THE FIVE-DAY WEEK. The five-day week in industry is the present objective of . organized. jabor. That era is coming rapidly, and should come. With it will come increased owner- ship of industry by the worker, if the present cooperation between capital and labor is maintained. Unless man is to become a slave to the machine he creates, the machine age of America is to emancipate the worker from heavy toil and low wages. All machinery should be scrapped if its effect upon industry is not beneficial to human labor; for human welfare must be the objective of all effort. When William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, asserts that the five-day week is practical and possible, he bases his position upon the beneficial use of machinery. If he is right in this, he can not be right when he opposes an extension of the beneficial use of machinery. Labor will either be en- slaved or emancipated by the tremendous machine forces that are developing. If the tendency is toward emancipation the use of machinery should be extended; and if toward enslavement, Americans should halt and take account of the direc- tion in which they are going. Already every worker has at his elbow the equiva- | lent of 345 helpers, and the machines of the United States furnish the equivalent of 3,000,000,000 men. Leisure and a share of the good things of the world will be the heritage of every American, rich or poor, if the creators of wealth continue to cooperate and are in- telligent in their control of machinery. Nature furnishes the raw material from which every American can become to a great extent his own master of time and wealth. By cooperation, machinery can be made to do the hard work in creating wealth. Cooperation in ownership is necessary, and is already pervading in- dustry. The telephone is owned bv 400,000 Americans. All great corpora- tions have long rolls of stockholders. These rolls should be longer, and should include the namies of all workingmen. Americans believe in the square dea’. Therefore they have no use for the injus- tice that lies,at the heart of socialistic schemes, whereby the hard-working are penalized and the loafers are rewarded. Americans reject the idea that the Gov- ernment should do their work for them. They have not reached the stage where they must take orders from bosses in Washington in the task of making their own living. What they desire is that the Government shall enforce rules that in- sure a square deal, and then leave them alone, and not compete with them and destroy them. The hard-working and thrifty will get ahead, and the drones will drop out. Two or three vital factors must operate if Americans are to achieve the miracle of abolishing poverty. There must be co- operation between capital and labor: there must be mastery of machinery in the interest of human labor; there must be honest government; and the Govern- ment must not engage in business. These factors are all operating now, not perfectly, but with increasing suc- cess. A powerful impetus in the right direction was given when the people in this month’s election, smashed the prop- osition that the Government should go into business. SIR WILLIAM PETTY. The publication of the third volume of the Petty Papers, under the editorship of the Marquis of Lansdowne, serves to remind the present age of one of the most distinguished Englishmen of the seventeenth century. Of. Sir William Petty, who lived from 1623 to 1687, it has been truly said that his mind was one of the most ingenious and active that England ever produced. His powers manifested themselves even in his early boyhood. Aubrey, who is one of the. great authorities for that period, informs us that his principal amusement was “‘to look on- the artificers, e. g., smyths, watchmakers, carpenters, joiners, &c.; and at 12 years old he could have worked at any of these trades.” ‘Going: to sea as a boy, Petty broke his leg and, in that condition, was abandoned on the’ coast of France,’ but’ he had‘ the good fortune to fall into the hands of some Jesuits, who gave him a splendid education. On his return to England, his many inventions brought him consid- erable fame: The variety of his accom-. plishments may be inferred from the fact that he was appointed: professor of anat- omy fs mater: THR and 2 age : He a PED: oe f +4 s ela quently professor of music at Gresham College, London. His next performance was to undertake for the commonwealth, then the form of government in force in the British Isles, a survey of Ireland. This, known as the “Down Survey,” be- cause it was measured “down” on maps, was his most extensive scientific under- taking. It is a landmark in topography, for it was the earliest endeavor to carry out scientifically a survey on a large scale. Among Petty’s inv whine were a fore- runner of the modern bicycle, an engine for propelling ships, and a double-vot- tomed vessel which he fondly hoped would prove unsinkable. To this safety ship he gave much attention either alone or in conjunction with Samuel Pepys, of “diary” fame. “The fitts of the Double- Bottome,” he writes to his cousin-in-law, “do returne very fiercely upon me.” It was, however, not destined to be a suc- cess, for one of the models which he had constructed of the supposedly unsinkable ship actually sank with all hands. He was also much taken up with “a Chariott which will cary a Rider and the Rideing Driver, with about 20 lb. of Necessarys, with one horse, as farr and as well as the same horse would cary Man upon his backe.” In his most important book, the “‘Polit- ical Arithmetick,” Petty discusses the gravest and the highest social themes, especially the increase of population and its economic consequences. He rather cynical toward the effects of higher learning, for he goes on record with the statement that “Universitys may deprive some men of Reason instead of Improving it ;”’ that “Universityes are almost necessary, but not for Substantiall learning.” Some scholars are of opinion that Petty, not Adam Smith, deserves the title of Father of Political Economy. one was the and he says elsewhere NEW YORK’S CRIME LAWS. Two counter-suggestions to Gov. Smith’s proposal that there be created a State sentencing board have been in hearings before the New York State crime commission. The governor's pro- posal would make the jury an. agency for ascertaining merely the guilt or inno- cence of the accused, the judge sitting as a presiding officer. Under one alternative suggestion there would be created a “court of resentence,” to determine the terms of imprisonment of first offenders and all other felons not coming under the provisions of the Baumes:laws. The other proposal contemplates the estab- lishment of an advisory board of judges. psychiatrists and criminal experts, to be called upon by the presiding judge when- ever, in his opinion, a case demands more than ordinary consideration. Principal opposition to the suggestion that there be created a State sentenciny board lies in the fact that it would de- prive the court of authority. In some quarters it is believed that constitutional obstacles would stand in the way of cre- ating such a body. The two counter- proposals seek to further the reform Gov. Smith suggested, each following a slightly different method of attack upon the problem. In both cases the functions and powers of judge and jury would re- main as at present, bu! in one case there would be an additional court to reconsider penalties.imposed by judge or jury, and in the other there would be a body of ex- perts constantly available as counsel to the court. New York’s experiments with criminal legislation are followed» with interest throughout the country. Her Baumes laws have been the model for habitual criminal acts enacted by other States and are the model upon which similar statutes are being written. New York’s approach to the problems involved in sentencing likewise will be carefully studied else- where. Throughout the country there is growing interest in crime control, a vast. problem, to the solution of which New York is showing the way. ORGANIZED SOCIAL WORK. Preliminary work of organizing the Washington community chest is going rapidly forward. One by one the chari- earlier invitations to participate have’ signified their desire.to become members. Altogether 38 organization members of the chest have been approved by the exec- utive committee, and there are pending several applications for membership. It, is indicated that between 45 and 50 or- ganizations finally will become memers of the chest, setting the record for a city the size of Washington. * ~The community chest offers mariy ad- vantages to the member agency, to the éontr cganisd to the person. in need. and _ ao : tout | excutives made | table and social agencies that ignored the : Will He Get Down to Business or Play Politics? member agency it makes possible more adequate funds when needed, relieving from worry money and expenditure of time in money raising. Krom the point of view of the contributor the chest cuts the average cost of raising money for social work, gives assurance that funds appropriated are spent effec- tively, makes possible the budgeting of charitable giving and prevents vexatious and confusing appeals for funds. To the person in need it provides effective serv- ice, giving him the fullest possible chance to realize his powers of self-development. Krom the standpoint of benefit to the community it provides adequate care for those in every kind of need, aids in im- proving prosperity by lessening disease, vice and crime, and aids in the creation of a finer civic spirit. The Washington community chest rep- resents the cooperative attack of the en- tire community upon the problems of need and want. It is nonsectarian; all creeds are represented in its committees and in its membership. No participating organization loses its identity by its con- nection with the chest. Subscribers may designate a particular organization to which they wish their contributions to go, with full assurance that they will be turned over to that organization. ‘The community chest does not alter the exist- ing comprehensive scheme worked out by Washington charitable and social agen- cies for dealing with local poverty and need. It merely adds to the facilities available to existing organizations, pro- viding them with a modern and bus!néss- like method of meeting their financial re- quirements. Washington should support the com- munity chest, and establish it as the medium through which the city’s chari- table forces can be scientifically operated. a ST md THE BANSHEE. All the newspaper accounts of the death of the aged Lord O’Neill, which took place in-northern Ireland:on Monday last, carried the story of the wailing of the banshee among the ruins.of Shane’s Castle throughout the previous night. Shane’s Castle takes its name from that chieftain of the Irish clan of O’Neill who is known in history by the distinctive ap- pellation of Shane the Proud. Shane was a rough-and-ready but able warrior of the sixteenth century, who for a long period was a constant threat to the Eng- over lish domination of Ireland. At the head. of his forces, few, indeed, in number but desperately brave, he would sally forth from his northern fastnesses and, sw2ep- ing down on the plains of Louth and ‘Meath with death and destruction in his train; he would strike terror into the hearts of the denizens of the Engtish | Pale, and harry their lands and posses- sions right up to the gates of Dublin. No tradition is better sie eed in banshee gives warning by her cries and lamentations when death is imminent for some scion of one of the old Irish families. The O'Neill banshee is, as the newspapers truly state, one of the most all that country. himself was cruelly and treacherously done to death, the lamentations of this preternatural visitant were particularly heartrending to all who heard them, and the native chroniclers aver that they were. heard by hundreds. It is, of course, inevitable that, in this matter-of-fact and _ scientific the famous in age, possibility of such other-world premoni- | tions of approaching disaster will be wholly denied or treated as a mere ment of the imagination of a supersti- tious and keenly susceptible race. Yet fig. the instances cited of the banshee’s warn- | ings are numerous, and some of them, of comparatively recent date, appear fairly well substantiated. There is, magnificent seat of the Marquis of Water- ford. On that occasion Lord Charles Beresford and his brothers, uncles of the then marquis, were assembled at Curraghmore for partridge and pheasant ing from tower and turret and outbuild- ing, were distinctly heard by guests and servants alike. No explanation ot the phenomenon was forthcoming until next day, when word was received that an- ticulars of the uncanny event and with bewildered comments thereon. The newspapers of today give currency to the statement that-the banshee has seldom failed to announce an impending death in the O’Neill family for a a 2 ? )over tne boas CONQGILLION healthy a countr\ among banks of prosperous work- ine standard of the hat is reflected + ~ ‘ fe " 4 “+ iiis COUNLY. indicates men. -It is the In creat mass of th .

By VYLLA POE WILSON. HANKSGIVING luncheons and din- ners and teas will be the order of the day on Thursday at women’s club headquarters, and many dances “re scheduled for younger club women at the local clubhouses on that night. There are always so many women important in club and organization work in Washington at this season of the year far from their own homes that it has become the happy custom to have Thanksgiving and Christmas entertainments at the club centers so that the loneliness of the holiday when absent from the family circle may be somewhat assuaged. In addition to this group Washington has many wom- en Government workers who live in small apartments by themselves who welcome festivities at their club homes On holidays. Of course, women with homes tn Washington are generous in opening them on such high festivals to ‘men without such blessings and to strangers from other cities marooned here temporarily, yet the visiting club women fee] more at their ease in par- taking of club entertainments. The local clubs for the most part cooperate with the Salvation Army and Similar organizations or have their own committees to furnish Thanksgiving dinners to poor families. The work of club women for the poor fs more, how- ever, than just furnishing them with u0liday dinners. Committees working on such tasks regard it as one of their cuties to survey the situation of fami- lies thus aided and set about the task nen ee more permanent rellef to Conperate in Charity. _ The yearly budgets and fnanetal statements of most of the local organi- cations of women reveal the fact that cach one has as part of its work the assisting of worthy people tn some ‘Orm or another. It may take the means of getting employment for Cap- able members of such families. or mak- ing them an allowance: of helping a boy or girl to continue jin school and Am granting of scholarships in indus- trial and vocational schools and in colleges. It matters not for what object the club is organized, the principle of philanthropy is an inherent element in women's organizations.

W. C. A., Girl Reserves, the Gir! Scouts, the Camp Fire Girls and the Girls Friendly Society. Most of these groups meet in churches or schools or homes of the members and Thanksgiving bas- kets will be prepared by them per- Ssonally, adding to the spirit of the gifts thereby. . There will be Thanks- Kiving dances for thesé juntor organi- zations. The members of the General Federa- tion of Women’s Clubs, although on record for prohibition, are taking great pride in the silver punch bowl more than 100 years old which has been presented to the national headquarters eat 1732 N street by women of the luncheon committee of the bienntal convention San Antonio, Tex.. June. The bowl has been pronounced a very fine specimen of Spanish silver by experts. It was pre- sented to an aide of the unhappy Em- peror Maximillan by a courtier of the Spanish court. The part the women of the District of Columbia Federation of Women's Clubs will take inthe legislative pro- gram of Congress will be discussed at the meeting tomorrow at the Hotel Roosevelt. Mrs. Edgar C. Merrit, the new presi- cent will make an address on the work the District organization will do along philanthropic, educational wel- fare and legislative lines. The program for the afternoon ses- sion will be in charge of Mrs William Beahm, president of the Sunshine and Community Society. Mrs. Harvey W., Prentice will speak on gospel mission work. Mrs. Arthur Seaton, of music, will present Miss Mary Apple, who will sing, accompanied by Milas Edith Dawson. Mrs. Henrietta Burton, chairman of the department of eco- nomics, in Fayetteville, Ark., who will speak, will be introduced by Mrs. W A. Winklehaus, chairman of the home cepartment. at Cheer From Red Cross.

What had a piano to do with my success? But as the years passed, I learned the truth of my maestro’s words. I sang with many pianos. But in all of them there was something lacking —call it sympathy of tone, or kinship of spirit. Until shortly after I joined the Metropolitan Opera Company, I found what I was seeking. And the discovery was one of the happiest experiences of my life. ’ I had set out to find a practice piano. I tried In the course of my rounds, I seated myself at a Knabe. [ had not played a dozen ‘notes before I realized that here was piano tone different from any I had ever heard before. Its liquid eloquence seemed to reach the innermost recesses of my heart. strangely elated. Before I knew it I was sing- ing. Yet, as I sang and played, only one voice rose from the piano. The voice of the Knabe melted into my own. We were one—the Knabe A o— ‘an Opera Company first singing les. se RE alw ays 5 to choose y our accon npani it I was We have remained one. Wherever I sing—at home, on the Metropolitan stage, on the con- cert platform—the Knabe sings with me. Al- ways its golden voice is an inspiration, urging me to do a little better than my best. And al- ways it seems to sense the mood of mysong, and to express that emotion in harmony with me. So when young singers come to me, I repeat the advice of my old maestro. Only now I add words of wisdom unknown to him, I tell these students not only the importance of accom- paniment to a singer—I tell them the name of the ideal piano for the singer—the Knabe. *“Rnabe your home.

Real Estate Classified The Washington Post. Schools Radio WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, +)=- mets NOVEMBER 192 \ R LAW GIVES RELICE TO TRUST COMPANIES -——— Firms Doing Real Estate Busi- ness Must Act Before may 29, 1928. WARNING Is SENT OUT ee Trust companies doing a real estate business must act before May 29, 1929, if they are to take advantage of a retro- active relief measure incorporated in the Federal revenue act of 1928, per- mitting them under certain conditions to exercise an option to whether they want to be taxed as a trust or as a corporation. as This is a warning sent out last week by the National Association Real Estate Boards to all its member boards. In addition, the association at the aame time sent a statement to every trust company the United States, a list of some 3,000 companies, calling their attention to provirions of the new of in law, and reminding them that thelr privilege to elect classification as A trust (income of ‘ch is to be taxed to the beneficiaries), can be exercised only if they have filed notice of such election within one year from the date which the 1928 revenue act went into effect. In notifying the trust companies dl- rectly the association is taking action as the only existing organization in a position to act for real estate owners in matters affecting them on a national scale. Provisions Are Stated. in section 704(b), applying to real The new revenue act, contains a provision estate trusts which is of great impor- tance, particularly in California and Tllinois. but also in every State in which real estate syndicates and trusts have been operated for the creation and sale of subdivisions or other extensive real estate developments. The provision was incorporated fol- lowing a detailed statement made to the finance committee of the Senate and the ways and means committee of the House by the National Association of Real Estate Boards backed by its member boards, in which it was pointed out that where real estate trusts or syndicates as a matter of agreement or as actual consistent practice distributed no profits to any beneficiary until such time as the capital employed in the en- terprise had been returned, a taxpayer who had invested in such an enterprise should be allowed to make his income tax return with no taxable gain recoz- nized until actual gain had been re-| ceived. It held that gains which, so far as the pocketbook of the individual in- vestor was concerned existed as yet only on the books of the trust com- pany, should not be returned until re- ceived in actuality Test on Taxability. A complete statement of the retro- active provision of the law and of of- | ficial directions so far given for its ad- | ministration by the Bureau of Inter- nal Revenue has been prepared for the National Association of Real Estate Boards by its general counsel, William McChesney. This statement, as It issued to member real estate boards and to a complete list of the _ trust companies of the United States, quotes the retroactive relief measure as to the taxability of trusts contained as sec- tion 704 (b) in the revenue act of 1928. This section reads as follows: “For the purpose of the revenue act of 1926 and prior revenue acts, a trust shall, at the option of the trustee ex- ercised within one year after the en- actment of this act, be considered as a trust the income of which is taxable (whether distributed or not) to the beneficiaries, and not as an associa- tion. if such trust (1) had a single trustee, and (2) was created and op- erated for the sole purpose of liquidat- ing real property as a single venture (with such powers of administration as are incidental thereto, including the acquisition, improvement, conservation, division and sale of such property), distributing the proceeds therefrom in due course to or for the benefit of the beneficiaries, and discharging indebt- edness secured by the trust property, was last week and (3) has not made a return for the | taxable year as an association.” Statement by Commissioner. The statement also directs attention to the following: “(1) In Mim. 3645 of June, 1928, the acting commissioner says: ‘Under the provisions of section 704 (b), a trust which has been held to be an association and taxable as a corpora- tion under the revenue act of 1926 and prior revenue acts, shall, at the election of the trustees exercised within one year after May 29, 1928, be considered as a trust and have its income taxed to the beneficiaries, provided the con- ditions stated in (1), (2) and (3) of section 704 (b) are met.’ “(2) In Mim, 3554, dated July 12, 1928, it is stated that it will not be necessary for the trustee to file a sep- arate form for each year for which he exercises an election. “(3) In I, T. 2434 it is held by the department that where trust has been closed and the trustee has been discharged, Form 967M may be signed by the former trustee. “(4) General counsel, Bure Wu of In- ternal Revenue, has held (G, C. M. 4,993) that a return filed by a trust on Form 1120 does not constitute a return as an association within the meaning of section 704 (b). Accord- ingly, a trustee may elect that the trust be taxable as a trust even though the trust has made a return for the tax- able year as an association if such return was made under protest.” Massachusetts Park.

Monday night Mr. Luchs declared a conducted several general survey months ago showed only 88 per cent vacancies in the apartment houses in Washington, and believed it would prove about the same if a new survey was made While apartment house rentals have declined somewhat gradually in the few years, it was his belief that have approximately reached a level, due primarily to the fact the increase in the population of District has caught up with the oversupply of a few years ago. Nearly Comparing population during the number Normal Again. reported the past apartment units structed during the same period, showed that requirements of the in- creased population was greatly in ex- cess of the production and this brought about nearly normal conditions in the rental of apartment space in apart- ment houses Stréssing income the increase in year with of Luchs somewhat in the ind exchange Tuchs stated that the importance consideration of the of apartments, Mr. the valuations afe ved at on this basis are more nearly ur: when the rentals received re- fiect normal conditions rather than the ier level when there ts a shortage ci when there is an over- te ver le' production In anal property the gy.

Green, president of the Noyes National Realty Corpora- tion, of New York. The United States Capitol, seat of the American Government, is valued at no less than $53,000,000, and the White House at $22,000,000 by the realty ex- perts of the Government. In making public the survey, Green stated: “Commercial buildings which cost. $5,000,000 or more are notatall une |} usual now, although such costly builde ings were once impossible for any pur- | pose other than monument al structures of either a public or private nature. | Our study indicates that approximately 10 per cent of the total annual con- istruction in the United States 1s in commercial buildings.

The order specifically forbids the use of abusive language, discourtesy of any kind, useless insistence and bullying. The agents of the treasury are asked to “perform their complicated duties in a spirit of good nature and conciliation. Some, advanced in years and perhaps overworked, have sometimes shown a tendency to lose their tempers. Others. too young perhaps, with the intolerance of youth, have on occasion made a dis- tasteful parade of their superiority and bragged of their professional knowledge only recently acquired,” The order was issued, it is explained, in reply to numerous complaints re-. ceived at the ministry.

An illustrated talk by Miss Mortimer, administrative princt- pal of the summer garden work at the Maury and Edmonds Schools, featured the meeting at the Bur- lington Hotel on Wednesday, of the District of Colum- bia Congiers of Parents and Teachers. The slides used were furnished by the Parent-Teacher Associations as was also the fence for the gardens. The work of transforming the bare, trash covereaé lots into a bounteous garden plot producing a crop of various vege- tables and adorned with flowers portrayed by the successive seemed almost a miracle to the terested audience.

whistle eliminated. R “WAC WAVE LENGTH LINED AND DISLIKED Reception Better, Reports One Listener Having Home- Made Set. DISMAL, SAYS ANOTHER While a majority of those writing to The Washington Post have complained about the new wave length of WRC, nevertheless a number have taken oc- casion to commend the station’s new assignment. Some comment along this line has been: “Reception better. I have a home- made one-tube regenerative set. Can get WRC, WMAL and WBAL clearly.” Cc. F. Hunn, 5034 Forty-first street northwest. “Much better. In respect to both local and distant reception, the new allocation is far superior to the old,” writes R. B. Weitzel, 2540 Massa- chusetts avenue northwest. “All locals and 200-mile radius com- ing in clearer and stronger: am miss- ing a lot of station heterodyning on lower q‘‘adrant of dial. There was a slight whistle the first night; very little or none since. WJSV not as ‘muffled’ a voice as formerly. No dif- ficulty as regards local stations with either of my sets,” says William WwW. Leggett, U. S. Soldiers’ Home Hospital. Well Pieased, He Writes. “I have a crystal set and before the change in allocations couldn't get WRC when WMAL was on the air. Now WMAL does not interfere with WRC. I am very well pleased with the results of the changes in allocation,” asserts Lula A. Ehringer, 85 M street north- ae “WRC was good before, and still s good. General conditions are much behtes than before. WRC seems to be very widely tuned. It obscures @ much larger range of the dial than before. This may improve as they better their tuning,” writes Capt. A. C. Stott, U. 5S. N., Wardman Park Hotel. “Much better. Conditions greatly improved. Well pleased with change,” comes from Fred L, Black, Cordova Apartments. “Better. Before change WMAL constantly came in over WRC. No interference from other stations,” says E. J. Grady, 1300 Massachusetts avenue northwest. “At first better; now about the same as before,” declares Alice K. Bielaski, 5508 Thirty-ninth street northwest. “WRC would Perhaps my ex- périences would be helpful to others like myself, who must retain their re- generative receivers. I operated with a) total of 94 feet in my antenna system | and found that WMAL and WRC) blanketed the entire dial. I reasoned | that perhaps a shorter system would | be helpful and erected a new aeriel of Lof ether? new tinned copper wire with 42 feet in the air, 12-foot lead-in and 10-foot ground, and found that I can now re- ceive the principal high-powered sta- tions in the East with little or no in- terference, except as noted in the case of WRC’s whistle.” comes from O. H. P. Scott, 7029 Blair road, Takoma Park, D. C. Local Stations Criticized.

HEINL. -REGRETTABLBE phase of the radio shake-up is that apparently 60 many sbut-ins and those only able to afford crystal or other inexpensive sets are being deprived of hearing their favorite Stations in the District. Numerous pathetic letters have been received along this line from the less fortunate listeners who apparently oan not understand what It is all about or why this small measuré of enjoy- ment should be taken from them. Cases are being reported where stations are coming In as well as ever on crystals, but in many others those with sets not so selective seem to have lost out entirely. . a » “Dear boys,” a telegram received by the Radio Commission from a Baltimore fan read, “will you please put a rope around your necks and tie an anchor at the other end and drop into the Potomac? Baltimore will then feel perfectly avenged for the havoc you have brought about locally.” bet he . v Despite criticism voiced by listeners here we continue to get results with our own set as good, if not better, than under the previous arrange- ment. We are located in the Northwest section-of the city above Sher! dan circle, and WRC thus far has been coming in as clearly as ever. There has been a broadness of tuning noticeable, but we believe that this situation is improving and imagine it will be entirely corrected when the station has had a chance to get thoroughly shaken down on its new wave. A joy of the new allocation, so far as we are concerned. is the way WBAL at Baltimore comes into our receiver since the reallocation. We have never had it so clearly before. “ ? 7 u A Post reader advances the theory that possibly the variable weather at this season may be blamed for some of the trouble listeners are attributing to the reassignment of the wave lengths. “While I have had no difficulty getting any of the Washington sta- tions with reception at least as good as under the old allocation, 1 have noticed on certain evenings very peculiar reception variations,” he writes. “At certain times, the local stations have tuned very broadly and their volume was greatly above normal. “Remembering back, as well as 1 can, these temporary phenomena exactiy duplicate similar temporary variations under the old wave lengths observed within the last few years. in my earlier experiences 1 at- tributed the variations to pecullar eonditions in the ether, and this seemed a justified conclusion as the conditions would have disappeared by the next evening. “In the past, I have never expected to get really ideal reception until fal] frosts became general and steady throughout the Northern United States. “Lately we have been having admittedly abnormal warm November | weather, and there have hardly been two evenings in succession when be better were une tae was even light general frost all over the Northeast. “T feel, therefore, that no final opinion as to the new allocations can safely be reached until the weather settles down tu normal widespread |fall temperatures. In the past many of us have never expected to have |good DX reception regularly until settled cold weather. “Isn't it possible that the early protestants are blaming wholly upon ‘the new assignments difficulties which largely may be due to the state It would be interesting to get exact information as to this recent influence from the Weather Bureau and the Bureau of Standards.” 7 ‘€ i ~ Unquestionably the most interesting and the hardest fought battle any radio stations have yet made for their rights on the at the Capital in a three-cornered fight between WENR, of Chicago, owned by the Insull interests; WLS, of Chicago, whose owuership was recently reported to have passed from Sears Roebuck & Co. to Prairie Farmer, and WCBD, of Zion, Iil., with Wilbur Glenn Voliva, general overseer of the Zion, himself on the job. All records were broken for the number Washington to testify in a radio case and for the number of which have participated in a radio hearing. So many make themselves heard that Judge E, 0.

This work was carried on by an outside concern, emplowng 35 girls to call the numbers and 20 girls to look up names. ‘To assure themselves that these girls were in no way suggesting stations, or “‘lead- ing’’ those called, there was a contro! board through which persons out- side listened in on and supervised the work. In the case of 13,784 persons called in all parts of Chieago, there was no answer to the telephone, 19,122 had no radio, 3,623 were not interested, 7,604 had no choice, in the case of 10,049 trouble was re- ported on the line and 54,262 persons did not answer. Of those who did answer, it was said 12,541 designated WENR as their first choice of Chicago stations; 10,158 placed KYW first; 8,190 voted for WGN: 6,880, WMAQ; 3,693, WLS, and 3,323, WBBM. | tarles? ‘a pipe cleaner between them to 'A 465-volt | Batteries recuperate while idle and | tested after. an ‘higher than ,a 45-volt battery drops to 36 volts alr was staged | the | LO | of | than one! chief | | will this Chicago family controversy was the lengthiest the Radio | last- | m | cepitot Wheater, the sessions | Building. | participating began to look more | CoMe | there lis, Md. “Very bad.

The whistle does not come from the set, because when the morning exer- cises are on, and nothing else, recep- tion is aS clear as a bell, and when there is an extended hookup, such as for the President, reception is also without the whistle or other interfer- ence.

I am not technically equipped to make any constructive criticisms in regard to the new allocations, but certainly there is something radically wrong. On the other hand, I installed a four- tube radio frequency and regenerative set, known as the “Chicago Four” hook- up, which I carefully built myself at Thirteenth atreet and Iowa avenue northwest.

It will be noted that 1 have checked the several criticisms in your issue of today, November 17, which are identical as stated. My object of this communi- cation is to emphasize the fact that it would have been much better to have allowed the two stations WRC and WMAL to remain as they were on the dial for the reason that where WRC was located it did not interfere with any stations, whereas with its present location 1 have been unable and do not expect to get KDKA, Pittsburgh, whica is.g high-powered station, on my At- water Kent set, and in fact all the stations surrounding the dial from 30 te 40, which includes Canada (35) and Zion, Ill., also Nashville, Tenn,, and WLS, Chicago, Ill.

5 THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ae -_ NOVEMBER ——_ nr me me 2) 1928. A i CHAIN-THEATER WEAKNESS: TALKING PICTURE STRENGTH By NELSON B. BELL HE precipitate closing of the Rialto Theater after five or six brief weeks of fitful operation, following three months of summer in- activity, serves to emphasize one of the major defects in the system of chain-theater conduct currently prevalent in this country, It fs a matter primarily of man power and executive vision—or perhaps tt were better said their absence. No two theatrical communities are ex- actly identical in temper, responsiveness or buying power. That is true even as among the scattered neighborhood localities of a single city, and to a proportionately magnified degree as among the cities them- selves. For this reason it is not possible for an executive or a group -of executives, no matter how high-power they may be, to sit in a solid mahogany office on Broadway and successfully guide the destinies of an alien theatergoing public, remote and unknown, whose amusement predilections constitute an acute problem even for those intrusted with managerial responsibilities who are om the ground. to have been attempted. That is what seems I do not at all mean to say that the Rialto has been bereft o* the advantages of keen showmanship in fits local management. On the con- trary, the managing directorship, so called, of the Ninth street house has from time to time, since it became a leasehold from Tom Moore, been imposed in worthy gentlemen of fine capabilities. Left to their own @evices and the dictates of their own better judgment, they micht well have revived the opulent days that marked the early history of the first spacious, one-floor ‘temple of the Muses” the Capital ever was privileged to boast. But instead of being granted the right to exercise their own initative, their own common sense and their own interpretation of the trend of popular taste, they were chaimed to the chariot of the High Command Ian New York and forbidden to replace a burned-out eleetric light bulb without first consulting the home office. The determination of policy, the booking of pictures, the selection of stage attractions, the dictation of advertising and publicity, all have been controlled from a distance of 228 miles by addicts of the “New York idea,”’ which usually is at least 228 miles from the practicable thing for Washington. It is a lamentable circumstances that the fallacy of such a plan had to be learned through an experience which must prove a bitter one for so many who are in no way to blame. - g not passing out in a blaze of glory, the Rialto, nevertheless, must derive some modicum of satisfaction from having contributed, in “The Scarlet Lady,” a dash of color to a partcularly distingutsted cinema week. The most notable aspect of the seven-day period just closed, eourse, lay in its revelation of what amazingly rapid progress Is being made in the perfection of the talking pictures. In “The Home Towners,” which happily continues through a second week at the Metropolitan, and ‘‘Napoleon’s Barber,” at the Fox, each a 100 per cent audible subjeet, there were evident surprisingly few of the with appropriately glib dialogue. That this feat finally is suseeptible of reasonably sure accomplishment whenever an earnest effort is made fn that direction was evidenced with fine eloquencé by not one, but two con- vincingly realistic exhibits. So wholly within the spirit of, the traditional stage are both “The Home Towners” and “Napoleon’s Barber” that more than one of the! possible eventuations foreseen by David Belasco, the dean of American theatrical realists, threaten the imminent likelihood of becoming es- | tablished fact. Iam indebted. to Mr. Tunis F. Dean, authority on the drama, rocon- teur, bon vivant and present emissary of Mr. Belasco in Washington on behalf of ‘The Bachelor Father,” for the views of the famous autnor- producer on the future of the articulate screen. “IT have been so absorbed in my own plans for the season that ! have not had the opportunity to make a study of these. talking movies, and consequently I hesitate to form a snap judgment. “Although they are obviously in their infancy, they will enjoy at Teast a considerable temporary success and as interesting novelties will occupy many of our theaters. But 1 do not believe they wil! ever replace the legitimate theater, with its players of flesh and blood. “Up to now, the cinema player has had to rely chiefly on line of face and figure, looking to his or her director to indicate the neces- Sary gestures to denote emotion. Now they will have to find players who can really act. and that has been hard enough to do in regular theaters. The teachers of elocution will probably reap a rich harvest teaching the film players how to speak lines. But good acting is not just good diction. There is a likelihood that at first the film Players will be so intent on saying their lines correctly that the acting will be forgotten, and the result will be stiff, awkward and amateurish in the extreme. “Should these talking movies reach the point where they can broadcast over the country a full-length play, played by real actors —and a selected cast at that (stars)—and do so ata 50-cent or dollar tep, obviously the stock companies will suffer. “Tf the bulk of our regular players decide to give their services to the talking movies, the bulk of our legitimate theaters will pass away, and the players will only have themselves to blame if there is no longer any real theater. “However, these talking movtes are an experiment in the show business, and should be given the help and encouragement accorded other experiments. “Personally, I am convinced that whatever happens, the theater will always be the theater, and will remain so by reason of the per- sonal and individual element.” The second and third paragraphs above that last are the ones that should give us pause. We seem to be there already. a AVING demonstrated its ability to out-bellow anything ever heard H on the legitimate stage—although possibly not in the circus tent—the talking picture now appears to be calming down, bent on establishing itself in the public esteem as the genteel, subdued and soft-spoken cinema. Such, at any rate, is the impression I gather from Mr. Werner’s eonfidential report from Hollywood on two of the most recently com- pleted dialogue productions made known to preview audiences—"The Ghost Talks,’’ by Fox, and ‘“Interference,”” by Paramount. In both films, I am told there is a very noticeable inclination to keep things pitched to a quiet, rational conversational key. Instead of the actors ¢alking out to the audience, the audience, figuratively, joins the actors and hears their conversation as though within the usual friendly con- versational range. Nothing more, I dare say, than a slight refinement of precisely the game effect achieved by Richard Bennett, Gladys Brockwell, Robert McWade and Doris Kenyon in the more engrossing periods of “The ' Home Towners.” Or perhaps I am wrong—a contingency that at times has been quoted as high as 8 to 5! However, there are other surprises awaiting those who assume that everything they can not hear must be silent. The Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer recording engineers are experimenting now with. sound pictures of plants and insects which seem silent enough off- gcreen, but speak right up when confronted with the supersensitive microphone. It seems the flowers have a language all their own. The rose, for example, makes a popping noise when it unfolds its petals for the microphone. Some of the insects that have already passed their screen tests are as noisy as pigeons on a tin roof when doing their stuff for the talking pictures. The supersensitive mike also has recorded for the screen the scratch _. @nd peck of a baby chick inside its shell, and its first faint ‘‘peep” as it 4 Breaks through and takes a look at the world for the first time.

The fact became apparent during the synchronizing of several current First National productions recently. For instance, Dorothy Mackaill was playing a cabaret dancer in scenes for “His Captive Woman,” the George Fitzmaurice production in which Mil- ton Sills is costarred. In some scéiT there was a static crackling in the microphones, “What are you wearing under that costume?” one of the engineers asked her. Miss Mackaill told him. That ended the difficulty, for the offending gar- ments were replaced with others not so static. In another picture, “Naughty Baby,” in which Alice White and Jack Mul- hall .are cofeatured, a similar ques- tion was put to Miss White. Her answer, with a_ blush, “Nothing—that has silk in it.” The fabrics in her Gress materials were found to be too soft to broad- cast. Then the electrical engineer had an inspiration. “It's your hair,” he said. “Put some oil on it. That's where this static is coming from,” he said a8 he ran his fingers through her shock of blonde hair. And so silk-wear and dry hair are taboo on the talking stages at First National. was: Beery Aviator Now. Wallace Beery recently took his final ‘ .vernment to act as an aviation trans- port pilot.

He thought it fine—so good, in fact, that he consistently refused to do another, saying that it would only spoil the ef- fect of the first.” The “most interesting figure’ Mr. Connolly has met in his European ac- tivities, however, is Premier Mussolini of Italy. “When one first meets Mussolini one is impressed with his vitality, his ag- gressiveness, his forcefulness and his power,” Mr. Connolly said. “As one talks with him one finds him most in- teresting and a man qualified to talk on almost any subject and to know it from every angle. “Although I have talked to him on tunity to study him at a very close range when we made a Movietone record of him.

The King of England has also been photographed by Movietone, as he was speaking at the dedication of a bridge, Mr. Connolly said. It was the king's first speech in four years—outside of the addresses at the opening of parlia- ment—and the second time the mon- arch’s voice has been recorded. The earlier instance was by phonograph record only for the archives. Three Movietones have been taken of the Prince of Wales, who, incidentally, is a very hard subject, Mr. Connolly added. Getting permission for the pic- ture was a difficult task, as diplomacy, friendship and almost everything else failed. Mr. Connolly finally sought refuge in the fact that as an American he wouldn't be expected to know the proper method of dealing with a Prince of Wales, took a taxicab to his abode a finally gained his long-sought per- mit.

He was accom- panied by Mrs. Chevalier, who was his dancing partner at the ‘time of their marriage two years ago. Welcomed to Hollywood in a cabled message signed by a score of Holly- wood’s most important personalities, Chevalier was greeted by several hun- dred leaders of New York’s social, finan- cial, stage and literary circles at a for- mal dinner dance at the Ritz Carlton. The message from Hollywood was signed by Mary Pickford, Norma Tal- mage, Clara Bow, Bebe Daniels, Esther Ralston, Florence Vidor, Evelyn Brent, Mary Brian, Baclanova, Charles Chap- lin, Douglas Fairbanks, Emil Jannings, Adolphe Menjou, H. D’Abbadie, D’Ar- rast, George Bancroft, Richard Dix, Wallace Beery, William Powell, Clive Brook, Adolph Zukor, Jesse L. Lask y, Walter Wanger, B. P. Schulberg and Al- Kaufman, : \ Hollywood's greeting to the distin- guished French actor read as follows: “We want you to know we are look- ing forward to welcoming you as a member of the motion picture colony of Hollywood upon your arrival here and feel that the results of your screen work in America will bring you the same esteem and popularity among the peoples of all the world that now ex- ists in the hearts of your countrymen.” Chevalier’s cabled reply was typical: Among the group of celebrities of Manhattan's glamorous life at the formal reception, Chevalier met scores who were old friends. They included Adolph Zukor, Jesse L. Lasky, Monta Bell, Daniel Frohman, Vivienne Os- borne, Dennis King, Ethel Barrymore, G White, W. C.

BUSY DAYS ON SOUND STAGES SOON AT HAND Ernst There is said to be an atmosphere of impending activity greater than ever at First National Studios in Burbank, Calif. The first sound unit, including stage, recording building, &c., is well under way; others are scheduled to follow Shortly. The great stages, seven in humber, are all filled with settings for current and fortheoming productions. The mill, metal shops, paint shops, trick photographic department, prop- erty and costume departments are all taxed to capacity. Meanwhile, Colleen Moore is busy with “Synthetic Sin,” which John Me- Cormick is producing and William A. Selter directing; “Stranded in Paradise,” from Donn Byrne’s memorable novel, “Changeling,” is also in production, with George Fitzmaurice handling the megaphone, Alexander Koria is prepar- ing to start “The Comedy of Life” with Milton Sills; Richard Barthelmess will soon begin “Weary River,” with Frank Lloyd at the helm; “Children of the Ritz,” with Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mulhall will be directed by John Fran- cis Dillon, who has just completed “Scarlet Seas,” starring Richard Bar- thelmess. Alice White is to begin “Hot Stuff,” with Mervyn LeRoy as di- rector; Billie Dove is to make “The Man and the Moment,” directed by George Fitzmaurice; “Seven Footprints to Satan” will be megaphoned through its weirdly thrilling course by Benjamin Christensen. All of these productions will have Gialogue or sound effects. Writes Dialogue. Sidney Howard, author of “They Knew at They Wanted,” “The Sil- ver Cord” and other famous stage plays, has been signed by Samuel Goldwyn to write the dialogue for “Condemned,” Ronald Colman’'s starring vehicle which is to follow Joseph Conrad's “The Res- cue" on the Goldwyn production sthed- ule, “Condemned” is an adaptation of Blair wera novel of the French penal colonies in French Guiana, “Con- demned to Devil's Island.” of | moment as | THIS WEEK’S SCREEN PLAYS With sound.

Such is John Gilbert in his new Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer sound picture, “The Masks of the Devil,” now playing at Loew's Palace. It is the tale of a man without a soul, a super-lover, who stole hearts and stooped to knavery with- out a thought for ideals or religion. As a young Viennese nobleman, he wins the love of the Countess Zell- ner, only to forsake her for the inno- cent young financee of his best friend. It is only when the countess, played by Alma Rubens, attempts suicide and blurts out that Gilbert is responsible for her downfall that tragedy arrives. Her husband attempts to kill the young aristocrat and is himself killed in the struggle. With his dying breath he calls Gilbert the devil himself. What follows in this picture pro- vides the story with a distinctly dif- ferent twist than might. be expected. On the stage, there is the premiere presentation of the famed Boris Pet- roff “Crinoline vs. Jazz,’ which is be- ing produced here under the watchful eye of the director in person. The pro- duction features Wesley Eddy and the Palace Syncopators, Bayes and Speck, John Quinlan, Chapman and Snyder, Carl Dobbs and company, Nell Jewell and the Felicia Sorel girls. Added attractions include an or- chestral feature, “An Ode to Thanks- giving,” by Harry Borjes, and the Pal- ace Orchestra, the M-G-M News, the Fox Movietone News, a Tone-Art Nov- elty, “Deep River,” and an organ screenic, “Targets,” by Charles Gaice. FOX—Mary Astor, in “A Romance of the Underworld.” “A Romance of the Underworld,” a William Fox production, is the screen feature this week at the Fox Theater. Pronounced one of the greatest under- world pictures of the many that have recently been shown, the _ story is from the great stage play by Paul Arm- strong, which ran for many months on Broadway. In the picturization of the stage play, Mr. Fox has thoroughly modern- ized the story which tells of a speak- easy hostess who turns her back on the sordid life incident to such a call- ing and, learning to be a secretary, finally marries her employer and is ideally happy until those of the old life learn of her whereabouts and en- deavor to drag her down to the level of their lives again, It is reported to be a most absorbing tale of the “underground” night life of Manhat- tan Isle.

METROPOLITAN—‘The Home ers,” Vitaphone All-Talkle. Vitaphone has enjoyed many tri- umphs, but none of the same stamp as “The Home Towners,” which has been held at the Metropolitan for a second week. There is not even the shadow of |a crook tn all the genial course of this talking-screen version of one of George M. Cohan’s most enjoyable successes. The home towners are just people, the sort we all know. The main characters are two middle- aged men, who have been chums from boyhood. P. H. Bancroft has preferred to marry and settle down in the old home town. Vic Arnold has gone to the big town and become a millionaire, and is now, at a rather late date, engaged to a beautiful girl, Beth Calhoun, whose father has invented a bottle washer, and with it some semblance of a for- tune. His son, Wally. has a good job in Wall street, and there is no imme- diate need of augmenting the family income. | Yet Bancroft, on veiling invited to be | best man at the wedding, suddenly con- ceives the idea that his old pal is be- ing hoodwinked, and goes, post haste, to set things right. Far from succeed- ing, he sets things violently wrong, and is at his wits’ end to set them right again. The play is tn George M. Co- | hen’s witttest and most geniai vein and | the players have made the characters extremely real Robert McWade, as Bancroft, 1s ab- surdly ingratiating in his well meant |meddling. He created the same part in the stage version. Richard Bennett is convincing as the supposedly ill-guided bachelor, and Doris Kenyon exquisite as his misunderstood and spirited fiancee. | Gladys Brockwell, who will be remem- 'bered for her moving performance in | Warner Bros.’ first all-talking picture, | “Lights of New York,” plays the wife of the up-State visitor.

On Friday the pictured screen stars will be Belle Bennett and Victor Mc- Laglen in “Mother Machree,” with the first chapter of the new “The Col- legians” and an Aesop Fable as the added attractions. Saturday only, David Rollins and Sue Carrol] will be seen in “The Air Cir- cus.” Stardom Ahead. Warner Bros. have signed Guinn Will- flams for two forthcoming productions on the strength of his performance in their Vitaphone special, “Noah’s Ark.” The erstwhile Western star is now work- ing in “Our Daily Bread,” under the di- rection of F. W. Murnau. He has a fea- tured role in this Fox film in support of Charles Farrell and Mary Duncan. Incidentally, Williams will shortly be seen in his first leading role for Warner Bros in “My Man,” starring Fanny Brice. The demand for the professional services of the “big boy” is far exceed- ing his open time, and as a result he is enjoying» the unique experience of choosing his parts, Williams, who has been in pictures nearly eight years, at- tained the “big money” ranks only re- cently and now appears to be destined for stardom.

BATHING-GIRL TRAINING FINE DRILL FOR DRAMA S ware experience as a bathing girl sl\ort comedies a boost when one is promoted to the lively feature? This, knotty and rather personal question was asked of Phyllis Haver, the Pathe star, whose fine work as Roxy in “Chicago” and latest role in “Sal of Singapore’ have demon- strated that with her, acting ability PHYLLIS HAVER As a 16-year-old bathing beauty. and personal pulchritude synchronize. Her screen career began in intimate as- sociation with one-piece bathing sults on the Sennett lot. The introduction of this scanty female apparel into mo- tion-picture comedy was an innovation that ranks with the World War in its momentous consequences. Since that eventful time .our summer beaches have become real pleasant places for others than the swimmers. The dog days have become decidedly less tedious for the . ’erage male. Life, it may be observed, has become larger. There is more to live for. But to return to Phyllis. “My ex- perience in comedy was the finest thing that could have happened to me,” she says. “Comedy is more exacting than drama. It is harder to write, harder to direct and harder to enact. So much | longer but less | depends upon the player in comedy. funny situation can be anything but funny unless it is interpreted properly by the facial expressions and the action of the players.

To make the public laugh every little thing must count. A thorough | schooling in comedy makes work in a dramatic feature much easier. I think that’s one reason why so many persons make good in drama after breaking into pictures in short comedies. “As for the bathing girl part of It, work before the camera in a bathing suit teaches one to move with more assurance in dramatic action. It’s a cure for diffidence.” Hollywood is all cluttered up with feminine stars who used to plaster one another with custard ples, and pour themselves into the delectable and famous bathing suits. For instance, in addition to Phyllis Haver, there are Gloria Swanson and Marie Prevost. If examples are needed as to the value of comedy training, why go further? FLASHBACKS AND FADEOUTS Florence Vidor, whose next camera work will be with Wallace “zery in “Tong War,” has purchased a new Hol- lywood home.

Crauford Kent, distinguished look- ing veteran of the screen and stage, is the latest addition to the cast of George Bancroft’s new picture, “The Wolf of Wall Street.” A flock of seagulls, 20 miles from the ecean, flew about the First National fake at Burbank, making an ideal back- ground for the studio “ocean” sequences of “Naughty Baby.” William J.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1928. | FOOTLIGHTS AND SHADOWS eee By JOHN J. DALY UST at present, Washington somewhat resembles London. There the queues form in the early morning and continue right up to show time; long Jines of men and women standing hour after hour for their chance at the boxoffice window. In London, these people are ‘usually purchasers of the lower priced seats. In Washington the . Btandees are out for tickets that sell as high as $5.50 each. Two Zieg- ‘*feld shows—‘Rosalie”’ last week, and now “‘Whoopee,”’ the latest giori- fication from the workshops of the Old Master—started the vogue. Upon the heels of all the inconveniences of standing in line for tickets comes the usual complaint. This department is particularly singled out every time the line forms to the right. People write to ask why some- thing can not be done about this; why mail orders are not recognized; why telephones are not answered at the boxoffice; why the manage- ment of the National Theater does not maintain a uniform policy; why this and why that; and one letter addressed directly to the manage ment of the theater found its way in carbon copy form to this office with an addendum in straight type, to this effect: ‘Perhaps this will arouse the fine Irish spirit of Mr. John Daly so that he will take up the cudgel of Washington theater-goers.” Well, the ‘fine Irish spirit of Mr. John Daly” is not so easy to arouse—any more. It has arisen and arisen, and arisen, on more occasions than one; and all, seemingly, to no avail. So the battling must be passed on to other hands. Life being what it is, it sometimes seems too precious to waste im doing a Lon Quixote act—and there are so many windmills. One writer, who has his appeal on the embossed stationery of one of our leading governmental! officials, after setting forth in three full peges - «am all ‘he trials and tribulations that have beset Washington theater-goers, Roland Young in The | ‘makes this statement: “I am writing this at the request of some e 4 i. ee ss Queen’s Husband”—Poli’s | thousands of patrons of the legitimate theater of Washington.

The production opens tomorrow night. The latest Ziegfeld masterpiece, which is headed direct for a Broadway run at the New Amsterdam Theater, is as big and costly and beautiful and enter- taining as “Rio Rita,” “Rosalie,” “The Three Musketeers” or “Show Boat,” the other current Ziegfeld successes. It ie “hot” and youthful in song and dance and fun and staged with typical Zieg- feld magnificence and distinction. The girls are the loveliest and cleverest in Ziegfeld history. He reports thet never before has he had such e beautiful and intelligent chorus and such remarkable accomplished dancers.

For why, in heaven’s name, should I frame defense for the theater managements _of Washington? All I have to do about ft is give advance notices of what is coming, through these columns, and report a day or so later on the actual performance in the playhouse. So far in my career I have never been called into executive council with the powers that be in the theater. Whatever advice I have been asked for has been about play presentations and not about methods of selling tickets; so that, in the language of the street, is that—and while most of these letters come from good, sincere writers and are appreciated, at the same time, they are shafts shot in the wrong direction. The place to file a com- plaint is down where the — begin. & + = O long as Florenz siento remains In the American theater, the S theater will be a living institution; for the man has a way of awakening and quickening the imagination. This is the reason why the long line will be formed for ‘“‘Whoopee” this week. It 1s pretty generally understood that when Mr. Ziegfeld puts on a production, those who stand long hours in line to purchase tickets will be amply rewarded for their endeavor. He has never cheated. Only in one or two In- Stances has he gone wrong, and even then, as in the case of “‘The Comic Supplement,” there were spots of real value, though this revue was a failure. In its failure it had more worth than some of the successes. Witb this behind him, it is easily seen how the Ziegfeld signature on a production means money value. The prices may be high, and are, but the return in entertainment value is also in keeping with the price. This week’s show at the National, ‘“‘Whoopee,”’ comes heralded probably as one of the finest things Mr. Ziegfeld has done. It is by a stroke of luck that Washington sees it before New York, since it was on its way to the metropolis from Pittsburgh, where it had a short run, but was placed in here as a sort of good luck omen. Like all producers, Mr. Ziegfeld is a bit superstitious—and Wash- ington in the past has never failed him. He wired me not long ago, confidentially, that whenever the theater goers of this city put their stamp of approval on one of his plays, it was inevitably a success on Broadway.

This is being done, it is said, to meet pres- ent-day conditions. The idea is to give high-class modern musical come- dies at prices within reach of the average pocketbook. Each week this troupe will present the newer and more popular musica] comedy hits. There will be weekly change of attraction. The personne] of the Savoy Musical Comedy Company is quite inter. esting. Most of the principals have been starred or featured in New York and London hits. ‘They are Eddie Morris, an American who is a London favorite, Roger Gray, last seen with Louise Groody in “Hit the Deck;”’ Virginia Marvin, who was prima ballerina with Mordkin’s Rus- sian Ballet, sang light opera roles in Paris and who, alittle later in the season will be temporarily released by Mr. Cook to sing an im- portant role at the Metropolitan Opera House. Renee Hamilton is a London prima donna who has played opposite many famous English stars, including Barry Lupino, Will Fyffe and W. H. Berry. Carrie Reynolds, comedienne, has created a score of Broadway roles; Lew Christy, distinguished character actor, has played over 100 roles on Broadway. In Montreal he was nicknamed “the Lon Chaney of musical comedy.” Other principals are Beetrice Lee, Rosa Snowden, Ann Gilles- pie, Anne Greene, for a number of years a specialty dancer in George White’s Scandals, and Jack Closson. The Savoy Male Octette and the chorus are featured in this organization. This musical comedy company is, as far as can be ascertained, the only one of its kind in America. For a period of 25 weeks they have presented in other large cities musical comedy hits. The repertoire {neludes “No, No, Nanette,” “‘Wildflower,” “Irene,” “Sunny,” ‘‘Lady Be Good,” “Sally,” “Hit the Deck,” “Little Nelly Kelly,” ‘“‘Tip-Toes,’ “Kid Boots,’ “‘The Girl Friend,’’ Honeymoon Lane,” “Sally, Irene and _ Mary,” “Good Morning, Dearie,’’ “Mary,” “Poppy,” “The O’Brien Girl,” and a score of others. Mr. Cook offers the following reasons why he can put on these pieces at the prices charged: A permanent musical stock organization has no unbearably high overhead charges due to expenses of transportation. . It is not at the mercy of varying local conditions. It can concentrate upon one cOmmunity, discovering its preferences, and plan its offerings accordingly. With its weekly total expense cut in half, compared with the touring company, the permanent musical repertoire company can cut its boxoffice charges in half also and still make the same net profit, while maintaining the best Broadway standards. The public is the gainer. The musical onion presented at the Belasco wil] be staged under : the direction of Roger Gray. The musical] director is Vincent J. Colling, _ who was associated with Mr. Cook in many of “‘No, No Nanette” Broad- way and touring productions. ay ‘|Current History Lectures ‘Clara W. McQuown Every Friday, 11 a. m.

WILD-DRIVER CURB METHOD PROPOSED A.A.A. Committee Reports Ba- sic Principles of New “Safe- ty-Responsibility” Law. INSURANCE CURE FAULTS Presenting basic principles to be em- bodies into a “safety-responsibility law,” in substitution for compulsory auto- mobile liability insurance, the Amer- ican Automobile Association's commit- tee of seventeen has submitted a report with recommendations to the executive committee of the organization. The report of the committee is sald to have covered a Nation-wide investiga- tion as well as an analysis of all pro- posed and attempted solutions of the problem presented by the reckless Griver and the relation of this problem to the question of financial responsibil- ity for damages incurred. The commit- tee eliminated the compulsory insur- @nce plan. The statement of the committee of seventeen, approved by the A. A. A. ex- ecutive committee and outlining sug- gested principles, follows: “It is believed, and foremost that the problem should be approached from the standpoint of safety, a fact which was overlooked itn the case of the Massachusetts compulsory automobile insurance law and in other radical measures proposed from time to time. “The primary aim should be to put the reckless driver off the highwaye.

A UP-TO-MINUTE NEWS OF AVIATION AND AIRMEN THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1928. LL rr nm eee 9 AIRPLANE IGNITION DIFFERENT IN AUTO Use of Magneto, Discarded Many Years Ago, Surprise to Motorists. HELD DEPENDABLE DEVICE By AVER RYDER. The average man, discovering all of & Sudden that most airplane engine ig- nition systems are based upon the mag- neto, often is inclined to question the progressiveness of the industry. Auto- mobiles used that type of ignition back in the dim, dark dawn of their brilliant careers, he reasons, and discarded it in favor of the ubiquitous battery, the device that does so many of the things that used to be provoking when ‘he motorist had to do them for himself. Why does not the airplane go and do likewise? He wonders. There are a number of reasons, some of which are passing fairly rapidly out of the picture as new considerations arise, many engineering observers point out. It may be, to put it no more defin- itely, that popularization. of the air- plane will bring the change in air- plane ignition systems about which the unitiate are puzzled, More and more it is being accepted that starters will have to be incorporated in airplanes. In connection with magneto ignition they are being used right now, of course But the starter at present em- ployed is the inertia type. The iner- tiapis created by the use of a hand crank that, through a gear train, works up an enormous speed. Cranking Is Unpopular. Inertia starters are efficient devices. They are a big improvement over the old method of starting the engine by swinging the propeller. But very few believe that they are the variety of starter designed to send the layman into ecstasy. L INTRICATE STUDY PRODUCES SIMPLE COWLING Experiments by the scientific They involve the use cf | energy, and, in conection with his mo- | toring experience, the average man has proved himself little disposed to turn cranks of any kind. He has not had a chance to prove the same reluctance in connection with San aerial vehicle. He will, however, and the opportunity is all he needs unless many are guessing with gross inaccuracy. staff of the National Advisory Committee for Acronautics tn the 20-foot wind tunnel (below) at Langley Field, Va., have resulted in development of a new cowling for radial air-cooled engines which increases the speed ard flying qualities of airplanes at small cost. of cooling air is controlled from the time it enters an opening at the front (upper right) until it flows smoothly out at the rear of the cowling around the fuselage (upper left). The flow | fuselage | made at 69 NEW COWLING AIDS MPLANE'S OPED Controls Flow of Cooling Air From Entrance to Exit From Engine. 19 MILES GAINED HOURLY Langley Field, Va., Nov. 24 (A.P.).— The new cowling for radial air-cooled engines devised here in the Langley Memorial Laboratory of the national advisory committee for aeronautics gives little indication, in its simplicity, of the intricate problems its develop- ment involved. The device is a combination of two | forms of cowling worked out during the investigation. Inside a little less than half of each cylinder and the crank case are covered, leaving the tops of the cylinders jutting out. These are then covered with a sheet of metal shaped like a halved egg shell and having a hole at the front to provide space for the propeller shaft and the admission of air. The air taken in through that hole ts deflected between the cylinders to reduce turbulence and at the same time cool them, and Is directed so that, it flows out at the rear of the cowling | in a smooth layer around the fuselage. To attain this result, a experiments and exact were necessary which had possible until the laboratory's wind tunnel was completed early year. With a full size, single-engined cabin set up in this tunnel, facing a stream of air moving toward it at a never been 20-foot this velocity of 110 miles an hour just as if | it were in filght, various degrees of cowling for the engine were installed and studied, ranging from entirely ex- posed to completely covered cylinders. Temperature measurements number of | measurements | (it were | different pointe on the} in engine operates, the magneto is fairly above suspicion in this important re- spect. There is one point of comparison be- tween the battery system and the mag- neto system where the weakness of the one is the strength of the other, and vice versa.

Battery ignition is less expen- sive and in the competition to reduce plane costs, it probably will bear fruit long before the vagaries of the “pleas- ure plane” buyer become significant factors in design. The magneto ignition of the present is accepted as the more efficient as compared with battery current. In the most exhaustive of tests, it has proved its reliability. Duplication of equipment, that is the use of two mag- netos, has played a part in establish- ment of this reputation, undoubtedly, but the system has proved itself. Batteries Used in Plane. Reliability is one of the important aspects in which magneto ignition is superior to that of which the battery is the spark seurce. As a matter of fact, it is regarded as essential by many that considerable research must ebe done before the battery may be ap- plied to the airplane engine. Batteries are used in planes. They differ from those used in connection with automobile power plant in the matter of size. Naturally, they are much larger, having a much more fulsome task to accomplish. Another impor- tant difference—from the viewpoint of one who knows the destructive effect of the sulphuric. acid in the electrolite when it is spilled—is that the airplane battery has a nonspillable vent cap. Otherwise, in maneuvering, the bat- tery might be put entirely out of com- mission and the plane damaged. In its present condition, that igni- tion provided by the battery is regarded as offering « greater fire hazard, one of the things that the airplane de- signer is especially desirous of keeping ata minimum.

Whether this will be changed in the future rests upon | the extent to which compression pres- sures are raised in later engine designs. It is doubtful if it will. In the case of the automobile engine, | more powerful batteries have not been brought into service. because of the adoption of higher compression ratios. | way of assuring efficient ignition | the spark plug gaps merely have been | By reduced. It may be pointed out that larger batteries are bein, used in automobiles today, but this is due to the more se- vere strain to which they are subjected by reason of more difficult starting and the necessity for providing primary current for so many different varieties of lights, horns, heaters and other ac- cessories. Ignition, so far as the airplane engine is concerned, is reliable and efficient but not what it will be in the future. That is true also of automobile engine ignition. It performs, but the engineer is going on looking for still better per- formance. Time will bring some change, whatever its nature. Valve Catcher Much Needed. Airplane engine valves do not break SO readily these days, but those that do have a nasty habit of falling down into the cylinder, there to do considerable damage. It provides the engineer with the duty of perfecting a remedy. ignition | Forced Landings One Neophytes who are uneasy that some part of the plane is going wrong with a forced landing as the result can ob- tain some reassurance from the sta- tistics of one of the largest air line op- erators.

Questions addressed to Mr. Ofenstein, care of The Washington Post, will be answered by the author in this column. Q. What is used to cover airplane wings? A. Airplane wings are covered with a very good grade of cotten, in generaF. A few manufacturers cover wings with duralumin, and a few use plywood. Q@. How is the fabric cover fastened to an airplane wing? A. The fabric cover is usually sewed together in the so-called envelope style and is pulled onto the wing in the same manner that a pillowcase ig pulled onto & pillow. After it is in place, it ts sewed to the ribs. Q. What ts put on the fabric cover of an airplane wing to make it tight? A. A compound called “dope,” made of cellulose nitrate or acetate in a sol- vent is used. This strengthens the fabric, and makes it air and water tight. Q. How many yards of fabric used on the average size airplane? A. About 80 square yards, @. What are false or nose ribs? A. These are additional In the leading edge of a wing to carry the heavy loads which come there. Q. What is the gap of a wing? A. The gap is the distance between the upper and lower wings. are It should | | be equal to at least the chord, and best results have been obtained when it is Slightly larger, say about one and a quarter times. Q. Were all of the Zeppelin type rigids built in Germany made of metal? A. There was one large company which built these huge airships with a framework of wood, glued together, in place of the duralumin used by the Zeppelin Co. Q@. Why are only the top surfaces of the upper wings of Navy airplanes painted an orange color? A. It has been found that this color any other. In the event of a forced landing or crash, the searching parties flying overhead are helped considerably by this color on the top wings. Q.

In fact, the rourid of amusement is such this Thanksgiving Day, 1928, as to make one almost dizzy thinking about it, let alone try- ing to negotiate it. Even the airplane, man’s latest toy to amuse and serve, will not be without its devotees waiting at its cockpit to soar off into the blue. How these amusements of today contrast with those of Washington’s first Thanksgiv- ing Day! ‘Then there were no motion pic- ture houses, no -golf courses—at least for Washingtonians—no motor cars to fly out to ‘‘Aunt Mary’s’’ for the day. And the air- plane! How ridiculous even to think of that in those good old mid-century. years! ASHINGTON’S first civic cognizance of Thanksgiving Day occurred in 1845. Until that year the day had come to be regarded by the resi- dents of the Capital—decidedly Southern in sentiment—as one peculiarly provincial, New England in origin, custom and practice. Public sentiment is, however, volatile, and, in the issue of the Daily National Intelli- gencer, the newspaper of the day, under date of Wednesday, November 26, 1845, the day before Thanksgiving, we find a _ recorded change from previous years in a communica- tion signed “C,’”’ who, among other things, remarks upon the “glorifying reflection that we have a day of that kind to enjoy.” Previous letters of the like, and conversa- tions, too, no doubt, had brought the City Council and Board of Aldermen of the city to the same opinion, for we find them adopting a joint resolution November 5 that, ‘Where- as we approve the custom of setting apart a day of general thanksgiving and praise to the Creator of the universe in the course of the autumn of each year, when the garners of the husbandman are full, and plenty over- floweth the land... Resolved ... that the Mayor of the City be, and is hereby respect- fully requested to issue his proclamation set- ting apart such a day...” The day duly set aside and arrived, there was much celebration, as shown—between the lines—in the Intelligencer. Wednesday’s paper, the 26, carried the following notice: “To enable the persons employed on the Na- tiona] Intelligencer to participate in the en- joyments of the day, no paper will be issued from this office on Friday next.” It was a wise editor who wrote those lines, for the times were not sickly ones of prohibi- tion. Rather were the grocers’ ads of the day pretty well fatted up with “various and sun- dry liquors to be had” at their respective lo- cations. “Sixty barrels of corn whisky,” says one. “Forty barrels of champagne and Newark cider.” “Two half casks of French brandy,” all by “recent packet from New York by way of Alexandria,” and the day before Thanksgiv- 4ng! And not such a great distance from this ‘“*“cheer,”” two bold and glaring announcements of temperance meetings. One a “public tem- perance meeting,” the other “a grand tem- perance rally.” Be that as it may, however, Washington’s first Thanksgiving Day must have gone off | efully, at least not with any violent un- towardness, for Saturday following the editor pee writes ; ‘Thursday last, the day appointed by the e authorities to. be observed aca of thanksgiving for privileges and blessings enjoyed during the year past, were observed in the city with every demonstration of cen- currence and respect. The public offices, newspaper offices and shops of every descrip- tion were all closed during the day.

Then there were fine hams steaming hot from the baking oven garnished with pepper and spices, bread stuffing for the birds, stimulating, ap- petizing with its high flavor; quivering cubes of cranberry jelly glowing on snow-white linen; sticks of celery, crisp and pungent, and perish the thought—-mayhap an appetizer before the high-stepping colored bearer of the piping-hot, brown-skinned centerpiece laid it in the midst of the hungry-eyed and laughing cheeked hosts and guests of the day, sur- rounded by soft tapers that glinted silver im- maculateness, while the grate fire crackled and sputtered its envy.

Our fast-stepping, jazz age makes the celebration of Thanksgiving Day in 1845 one of simple beauty and serious thought. And what did they discuss round those first Thanksgiving tables and in the drawing room over liquor and cigars? There was plenty to dis- euss, for the administra- tion of James K. Polk is one of the most note- worthy in the history of America. And if the files of the Intelligencer lie not, the “‘plenty”’ was dis- cussed hotly enough. There was war Mexico coming on Texas.

This was the fashionable retreat of the day and, under the auspices of the Washington Light Infantry Company, members of which were to appear in uniform, it was certain to be resplendent with gay and dashing couples, carriages, lights and lackies' and prancing steeds pell mell, strains of soft music in the night ‘til morning. Dates were no doubt flashed that Thanksgiving night as eyes looked undying love into undying eyes and nuts crackled and hopped over flagelated hearthstones mid flickering fire and candle- light. For the more serious, ernment circles intere was bringing forth those within Gov- sted in what the world in science and invention and what the Nation was contributing to exploration and discovery, there was bountli- ful matter to discuss this day of leisure, both round the groaning dining table and the Word had just come to America, published in the correspondence column of the Intelligencer, of a British scientific expedition into the Antarctic where “compact ice and icebergs prevented the pole’s reach.” But the Pagoda, ship of the fleet under command of one Capt. Moore, of the Royal Navy, strove valiantly. At times it was “surrounded by icebergs considerably higher than the mast-heads Too, the Gilless expedition had returned but a short year or so before and the report of that expedition by the captain himself, Uv. S. N., had just been completed and pub- lished in large book form. That was con- cerned with magnetical and meteorological observations in Chili.and ranks: with the great expeditions of the Navy Department in the interest of science. The Intelligencer, commenting of this expedition in its columns on the eve of Thanksgiving had this to say: “The United States has taken its piace among the nations of the earth as promoters of science and investigations of natural phe- nomena, as questioners of the soil and atmos- phere, “The result of the late exploring expedi- tion and Capt. Fremont’s most interesting travels and researches in the Far West and Southwest, abundantly testify that our Gov- ernment has put her shoulders to the car of science, and urged it to some highly impor- tant advances.” Indeed it was a time of exploring and ex- peditions—that period of our national his- tory that the year 1845 falls in. Within a few years the great gold rush to California was to be on. Men’s minds were on Oregon and Texas. The indomitable spirit of man Frederick Bradley Photo. The heavily laden board that characterises Thursday's national festival. “reoccupation” of Oregon. ‘‘Fifty-four forty or fight’’ was the battle cry of the Democrats in the presidential campaign. And with Polk in the White House it still echoed on. The columns of the Nationa] Intelligencer of 1845 are full of “‘sentiments”’ reflecting the atti- tude of the public mind both in and out of the. administration on the Oregon and Texas questions, respectively. Perhaps the ‘‘Real American Tom Thumb” engrossed the Thanksgivingites for a time that day in the lighter vein. He, just brought over from a successful tour of Europe, was that day and for a few days thereafter to be seen at Odeon Hall, Fourth and Pennsylvania avenue, “the smallest man ever exhibited in Europe or America.” One can see that he must have drawn some of the members of the city to his side on that first holiday in the city celebrating the coming of the ship of succor to those starving on the bleak shores of New England. The belles and the beaux of the Capital with many a dandified air and grimace must have gone forth to view the “new wonder come to our city.” And for the older people there must have been satisfaction in reflection on the grow- ing power of the Government. Congress, at the close in March had passed an act authoriz- ing the Postmaster General “‘to contract for the transportation of the United States mail between any of the ports of the United States and a port, or ports, of any foreign power, whenever in his opinion the public interests will thereby be promoted.’”’ The postmaster at the time was advertising in the Intelli- gencer for ‘‘Proposals for carrying the mail of the United States as herein specified, to- | wit:’? New York to England (Liverpool) and return, Belgium, Germany, Portugal, Ha- vana, Cuba, and France. The “proposals’’ specified various cities in the United States along the Atlantic seaboard and the Gulf of Mexico. The act of Congress marked a step in the growth of postal service on the part of the Nation, a reflection of the power and expansion of the country among the nations of the world. To the inhabitants of Wash- ington it gave, unquestionably, great, good satisfaction. Discussion among the young people—and ait-98 oe ee if older oe ores matter—must have been rife forthooming.. and - was pushing the frontiers of the Nation North, Northwest and Southwest. Reports were coming in from all these sections tell- ing of the land to be encountered there by those who had it in mind to come. Some were excellent and conducive to hardy enter- prise on the part of those back East; some were discouraging and told of hardships to be encountered which no ordinary person in his good senses would undertake. There were reports from the Oregon country that nothing good was to be found there. ‘The land was not fertile for corn; it rained con- tinuously and pioneering was all but unen- durable. Texas land was advertised for sale and settlement in the columns of the Intelli- gencer. The whole bearing and time was one of adventure, of new country and long burdensome travel, Washington, the seat of the Federal Gov- ernment, was the center from which all this Western activity radiated. Congress was shortly to be in session, the new Congress, War was shortly to be in the air and the minds of all were full to overflowing with the portentous question of the day, the signs, omens and portents, That Washington found something, in all that was in the air, to keep its tongue wag- wing far into that night of holiday is glori- ously apparent. What will Congress do when it meets? flew from tongue to tongue. Men’s passions were at fever heat over the Norte- west boundary, President: Polk himself gave a dinner at the White House that day over which his wife, the beautiful Sarah Childress, presided, There, the friends of the President and mem~- bers of his official family gathered and dis- cussed the serious business of the times. But beyond this discussion it is not probe able that anything else disturbed the quiet atmosphere of the President’s palace. Mra, Polk was of the Calvanistic faith. opposed to dancing and in favor of its banishment. And it was banished from the White House in her time.

Penelope was loved by the son of the local banker; Helen met a motor salesman from Detroit; Ivy had been kissed at 13 by the son of the local judge who had married her parents; Jane eloped with a mining engineer, just graduated from Ann Arbor but with influential elders in Panama. “ Burl Schriver, was the nephew of old Jake Schriver, whose Kieffers were the pride of that. end of the State. Burl’s people, Hol- stein breeders, lived in the eastern end of the tate. Jake had paid for his youngest neph- ew’s course at the State agricultural college. The old Schriver homestead was a ram- bling red brick structure. A well to do child- less pair had made themselves comfortable in their last years. Jake had declared that his favorite nephew was a natural “tree man.” , Mrs. Bayne sighed with ‘a certain relief the June afternoon when Burl and Virginia told her that they were engaged. Virginia’s stout mother said to Penelope “Well, I’m glad Virginia has done well. d have hated to see the child marry some one who ecouldn’t afford to buy her pretty clothes.” A gay wedding. A gay enough first year. Comet anniversary loomed. Or was it wooden or tin : To be sure, the two quarreled a few times. But Burl was a busy man. Even in winter, he needed several hired men. He loved Vir- ginia’s kittenlike ways. She was 19 when she porried him; he was 26. hat November night when Burl was kept in town with the remainder of the jury on » the Meadows-Kroft case, neither he nor Vir- ginia had any premonition of trouble. _ Virginia ate supper with Junella.. Eph . Saind was in Grand Rapids, buying a new desk for Burl. - Junella and Eph Saind all their steady married years had cared for tools not their own; tended barn or kitchen not their°own; slept under a roof that did not belong to them. But they had their own loyalty to a roof, nevertheless. After supper, Virginia and Junella sat in front of the fireplace in the dining room and sorted linens. It had been a blowy wash day. A cold night. A November sleet beat at the windows, Winter had jumped like a burg- lar from Autumn’s closet. Virginia won- deréd if Burl had a bad job on that jury. It was an antagonistic group of men. The previous December, old Rabe Meadows’ truck had brakelessly rolled backward down the Old Pine hill and shoved Mr. and Mrs. Kroft and a grandchild into a drainage ditch. Old Henry Kroft’s hip had never really healed. He was a heavy land owner, well to do. Rabe Meadows owned consider- able land but was not so well to do, Meadows are carried no insurance; he was that kind of slovenly, gray-haired, rural optimist. But the seven children from the Carroll place on the corner had been unprejudiced witnesses. Bésides, every one knew that the Meadows’ brakes were usually bad. | The law was on Kroft’s side. He deserved damages. But Henry Kroft was not par- ticularly well liked, as is oftén the case with men of property. Rabe Meadows gave a tiny .malicious old smile when two jurors were chesen. And. he counted on Burl who was under obligations to him. He nevér said so. But Burl knew. the March before the accident, Meadows had been driving past the Schriver place when Burl happened to be alone with a sick horse. Eph was in Detroit, buying tractor parts. The two other men were away that week. Old Tom was not a necéssary horse; hé was almost a roan relic of the dark ages fore carriages were made horseless. ut ur] had ridden him vacations since he was a_child. Old Tom, indeed, was old enough té know better than to eat to the bottom of an. exposed barrel of cider apples. Rabe Meadows was almost a veterinarian; évéry one knew that. He drove into the yard to borrow gasoline and stayed all night working with Burl over old Tom. Rabe Meadows was the kind to do a neighbor a favor—“‘And Mis’ Meadows at home chorin’ thé stock,” snorted Junella. y But Burl told Virginia that he for one ; 7 ship- At Aan aN a A A telephoned at least? you'll do that, Virginia. - gatisfied here than you were at. home.” © - : - > “ iY couldn’t go against plain facts. The lawsuit had been bitter. The two men had fought from tempér and over dollars. A bad coup- ling. Every one knew that the jury would be divided. The Madeira and the drawnwork pieces were put away. Virginia stretched her arms. She was ready for bed. Junella went to bed with a hot water bottle and her alarm clock. Virginia thought Burl might be home by 11, Jury of farming and small town men does not miss a night’s sleep without big rea- son. Burl would be hungry when he got home. She waited up, yawning. Ten-thirty. Bleven, The radio set had been lively with dance music. There was an al- most local sending station—-50 miles away. She was half asleep when the music was broken into: news was announced. A clear, trained voice said, ‘The jury of the much- discussed Meadows-Kroft case has given its a in favor of Henry Kroft, the plain- tiff.’’ She sat up with a jump. Where then was Burl? The verdict had been handed in, judge had read it—announced it to a messenger to relay to the broadcasting station—jury had been dismissed Why, Burl had had time to reach home since then! Of course, that old clock was fast. Fifteen Minutes, at least, Even so-—perhaps he had been hurt. Probably he hadn’t put on the chains—O, Burl had his faults. He’d cotton swaddie a maple yearling but he would for- get his slicker. Alarm caused a feeling of temper. Still, it was a formless alarm and just a speck of tempor. She waited expectantly. Had he hardly had time to get home? He would be hungary. Past eleven. O, even if that clock was fast! The half hour struck. The radio man sald, “Good night, friends of Radioland! Tomor- row at 7:15 “* Virginia whirled the dial. Off! Where—where was Burl? She had at- tended court once during this laweult; the bandages of old Henry Kroft’s hip came to her mind. Was Burl overturned at the foot of a hill? Bones broken? Virginia got Burl’s big woolen black and orange bathrobe. She huddled in her chair; her nerves stead- ily grew tighter. But her body was shaking. Twelve-thirty. One o'clock came! She decided that at 2 o’clock she would rouse Junella and they would get one of the men from the cottages. They would take the light truck to look for him-—— Two o'clock! QO, the rellef! The familiar horn at the gate—cut off suddenly as if Burl had remembered too late that the house might be asleep. Then the quick rumble of the garage doors on rollers. He came in through the kitchen, shaking off sleet and whistliing—O, lightly whistling “What'll I do, do, do-oo.”’ Hurt? Not a bit? He flung his driving gloves to a settee in the cogner of the room and wriggled out of his overcoat. He was as unhurt as a brand-new dime from the mint. “Hello! You up, Virgy? Been reading a book?’”’ “Burl!” “Well, what?” “Where have you been since that jury was dismissed ?”’ “O, I looked in at the firemen’s benefit dance for a while. Got to dancing, If it hadn’t been so late and so cold, Ud have raced home and routed you out of bed to go back,”’ Her reaction from the chilly hours of frightened waiting was natural enough, The Bayne girls had the high-strung tempers that accompany high natural gayety. The fire- men’s annual affair had slipped her mind. “And I crouched here thinking’’—she be- gan to bite her lips hysterically——‘thinking you might be hurt—-bones broken i “Silly of you.”” He was really contrite and a little uneasy. It had not been exactly thoughtful to stay so long at a dance without her. But his voice conveyed no contrition to her ears. “Silly of me!’’ Her voice was fast and angered. “Now I see that it. was!" And that was the beginning. Virginia was a lovely sight in the gaudy woolen garment, too large for her slimness. Her big blue eyes were dilated with sleep and fright, and her cheeks were scarlet as cherries from anger. Burl smiled involyntarily. Presently he in- tended to pick her up and kiss the anger from her pretty mouth. He did not pay much attention to her first words. But her words came in a stream of re- proach, and presently, with a man’s reaction, he did not Iike their sound. After all, he was tired; he had been In court several days, aud for hours he had been cast In an argumenta- tive humor. One of the jurors was courting Rabe Meadows’ youngest granddaughter; another was after Henry Kroft’s influence for the next bridge contract. Kroft asked too much damages, Burl had thought, but of course a crooked hip is nothing to go through -Hfe with. ‘Harder footing on the down side of life, too. On the other hand, everybody liked Rabe more or less and didn’t care to make the damages too steep. The six-mile ride home had been pesty, too, becatise he had not had the chains on. So his own temper rose. Virginia was in a tantrum over a mighty small matter! “Say, Virginia, go a little slow!” But she did not go slow. Her nerves paid in feverish words for thé cold hours of panic which her imagination had nursed. His mangled body in a ditch—all four hands, no, four hands and feet broken—the lean, lovable face mashed into beefsteak—— “IT hate you,” she said finally, “and I won't be treated this way!’’ She meant, sub- nt sy the mangled and ditch vision of m. ‘Treated what way?” he asked angrily. He had been hungry, and he knew there was the remnant of a baked duck from supper and a blueberry pie in the pantry. But the quarreling had killed his appetite. ‘I don’t know as you've been treated so badly any time since I married you!” Perhaps if he had said since she married him—but he chose the less pleasing order of pronoun, . Virginia’s blue eyes blazed. The first spark of real hostility between & man and a woman may hinge on nothing larger than pronoun processional, He was putting her in ‘the wrong! But she wasn’t in the wrong. Hadn't she just spent three awful hours on account of his thoyghtlessness? Couldn't he have - As if reading her thought, he said coldly, “Telephone is out of order. Didn’t you know that? Sleet. I’m going to bed.” | He stamped toward the stairs. Virginia did not move from the chair where she was numb with cold in spite of her bathrobe. “And I think I'll go home tomorrow,” she cried, driven by the furtes within her. He halted besides the newel post which was visible to her in the dining room. ‘‘O! . You will?” : ‘*Ves!’ “And what then?” She was haughtily silent. ae. Bur! laughed disagreeably. “I don’t think Guéss you're better Now, he might not have referred to ma- e * THE ANCIENT FIRE terial things at all. He might have had in mind the satisfying nature of their life to- gether. Their love, and laughter of days. But she did not understand him so. Shaking with anger she sprang to her feét. “How conceited you are, Burl Schriver! Do you mean I'd not be able to live away from you and your property?" “Go ahead and find out,’ he retorted, and went on upstairs, Virginia lost her last vestige of judgment. When she herself followed there was en- acted a scene common to many marital households, Virginia got her comb and brush and then slammed into a spare bed- room, She shot the bolt with a bang, “Oh, don’t bother,” shouted a now thor- oughly angered husband, “I don't want to bust it to reach you.”’ Burl then kicked his shoes across the floor and slammed a wWin- dow up and snapped a light off with unnec- cessary energy and got audibly into bed. He had his breakfast and was out of the housé before she came down, He wag set- ting out 3-year-old Baldwins that month.

But the fruit growers were a fairly steady stream through the snow-flurried doors. Some of the older men saluted Virginia grimly. All knew Bayne’s girl, and young Burl Schriver whom old Jake Schriver had certainly thought a lot of, Invariably every grizzled ralser said stiff- ly, “Good day, Mis’ Schriver.” Not a word more, Men! They hang together, Even her father—‘‘Now, Viray, this rum- pus is getting silly———’’ She had threatened icily to go to Detroit and live with Helen, and a paternal finger had hastily withdrawn from an overhot pie. Rabe Meadows was not her father, What right had he to pull a slovenly gray mous- tache with disapproval at sight of her small yellow head beyond the filing cases? Had she not added his column of late Monarch tomatoes to the right total? Henry Kroft was another.

It was a gorgeous set, Fine enough for any bride. Penelope had paid three figures, After breakfast Virginia packed. She had pretty clothes, Nor had Burl paid for all!

Let him keep it! After taunting a daughter of unlucky Anthony Bayne with her needy girlhood! That had been needless- ly cruel of Bur! Schriver, “Your ma sick? Or your pa? Or the girls?”’ Junella gaped anxiously at the trunk coming downstairs on the shoulders of the Stable hand. <7en8;": ~ Let him keep, too, the Madeira and filet things. She would not care for them, If the very next day she had not gone to work in the canning factory peace might _b00n have been made between them. Virginia knew that afterward, Burl would have come for her and made up, But Lars Huckley was on Main street and he asked her what she was doing in town on such a windy day and where was Burl; and then he told her that he was good and sore be- cause Netty Keyes was leaving on the noon train. “Wants to try a city job, she says. What she means is she wants to try a city sweetie.’”” He was disgusted. But he was dumfounded the next moment, “Take you in her place? Say, Virginia, you’re surely joking!” She convinced him that she was far from joking. Lars and Ivy Bayne had been in the same grade in school, though Lars had quit in his first year of high school to work. His wife, Vona, had been Helen’s brides- maid. Now he scratched his sandy head in a great dismay Goshamignty. maybe there was something in this highbrow talk that marriage was a failure, If Burl and Vir- ginia Schriver had busted up It was 8 a. m. the next day and she was perched on Netty’s stool in the small nook behind the filing cases before Virginia real- ized the enormity of her action. Talk! Oh, there was plenty of talk. Sy noon her face was burning at half-caught phrases, And beyond the canning factory, the whole town would find plenty to say: mostly about Burl, But in half a day the mischief had been done. Her parents had welcomed her home with affection tempered by a natyral dis- may. Burl probably would be in that after noon. | , But he was not in that afternoon. The following day he was in town, And some one told him, Three days later, Virginia met him face to face at noon on the street, He looked at his wife as if he did not know her. Virginia afterward shivered at the mem- ory. She had not dreamed that Burl’s likable eyes and easy mouth could turn to that hard mask. She set her own heart harder. She knew! He was furious, because he had not found her with blue eyes all red and swollen and repentant! It is true that she felt a little qualmish over one angle of. the situation. It was her town—not Burl’s; the general talk might be more galling for him. But— didn't he deserve it? The weeks went on. His face never eased. That stranger’s cold face! Almost with panic, she managed that they did not again come face to face. ' But, day after day, she held .her own chin high and. hard. 7 eae Not many women were at work in the gh. we re AE eg pe : — a aap me ings. Let him have the insincere role of ac- cuser in public! It was not rightfully her role! The winter seudded off her life, whipped by the high waves of her bitter feeling, as a ship is bowled along by high imperious seas. And the spring months passed in much the same fashion, After Christmas she had spent a week in Detroit with Helen, After Christmas, be it noted, Burl had given vo sign——no gilt. In February she saw him three times at a distance. And by that time, something very cold, almost as cold as A beloved corpse, folded hands, had taken hold of Virginia Schriveér’s soul, He had old Junella to look after his com- fort, of course, Junella could mend old filet or baste a young duck, Both beautifully. Burl did not really need a wife, In March the canning factory closed down for a while. A new boiler had to be installed, Virginia went to Detroit for the enforced vacation. Helen, like Ivy and Penelope, was sensible. Not snoopy, Every blue-eyed woman knows enough not to offer undesireq advice to another one. But Helen was most like Anthony Bayne. On this second visit she had:-to say some- thing. Oh, kind words. Worried, too. “You can’t have your cake, all frosting, Virgy. Now, the way Harl messes around in that dirty river boat every decent Sunday in spring— You see, it boils down to a question of whether you most love a man or most hate his faults.”’ “Quite,” said Virginia, chin In air, and that closed the subject and left Helen some- what miffed, Still, she was over good to the youngest of the family who had made a mess of a most promising marriage. There were thea- ters, taxicabs, restaurants at midnight. A city swirl of gayety. April unpacked her first fruit buds, Little pink and white things peeking out of their green, like chickens out of shells. May put hired men to mending step-lad- ders. The basket factory thumbed its orders, and lathes flew. Tractors rolled grandiosely across the realm whieh, with a ruthlessness greater than any ancient war god's, they had wrested from the horse-drawn plows and harrows. : Sometimes, behind a filing case or alone in bed at night, Virginia Schriver’s lovely mouth would twist piteously. No, she would not cry! She was too proud for that, . But why had this happened? And how? How could Burl be so hard? He must know what was in her mind and heart—he must! It was as if a mountain of ice in a night had formed between two ships, And it grew, - towered higher and colder day by day. Could she put out a hand in reconciliation toward Burl when he would not, no, he would not see it though she pushed it into ‘hig own? June came. Strawberries in mammoth red dripping trucks moved factoryward, The women settled down restfully for plece-work hulling. 3 | Virginia had seen Junella several times since that memorable morning when she left the older woman mending the delicate *‘com- pany” lunch set, last used at Sunday dinner. On the street or in a store, Junella’s old eyes had been troubled at sight of her former mistress, but the awkward old mouth had framed no suitable words Virginia had enough poise for the two of them; she was smiling, matter of fact and cordial. There were nv strawberries or raspberries on the Schriver place, except for home con- sumption. Old Jake had preferred trees to the low growing stuff.

Not so often in that month; just the early peaches and a truckload or so of crab- apples, It was mid-August before Virginia was reminded of the cherries that usually rolled townward in early July. Burl had sent them to a eity markét, probably. To avold seéing her at the canning factory? Oh, Burl, Burl! In the latter part of August she heard something that caused her mixed emotion. Eph and Junella Saind had been called west by the illness of their one son, a rolling stone, Pears hung in luscious profusion—-and pears are a “soft! fruit. A bad time for a man’s overseer and housekeeper to leave him. Burl had hired another pair, named Toogle. Virginia was surprised at her own feel- ings toward this unknown Mrs, Toogle. She realized something quite abruptly—that under her wretched anger had run a tiny subeurrent of satisfaction that no one but Junella cated for her house and her aban- doned possessions, If Virginia through the win- ter and spring and hot fruit steaming summer had looked forward to pear time—she had looked foolishly. Burl had his contract: Way by day he worked with his men. But if he were conscious of Vir- ginia’s pale gold head at the nearby window he gave no sign. Pear scent rolled in nostril- assailing waves from the trucks, It lay over the canning rooms in a reeky cloud of sweetness. It was nonsensical, of course; Vir- ginia could not really tell the sweet heavy scent of Burl’s trucks from other pear louds, but more than once a heavier odor than ordinarily had assailed her and she had glanced up from her- ledgers to glimpse RAurl’s bare black héad across the rail- road tracks. Virginia saw the man Toogle —an unkempt, smirking man with sandy hair and loud laugh. Of course, Burl could not get a good pair in a hurry, with the season on. But she hoped, not conacious of the odd little town on her face, that Mrs, Toogle was better than the husband It irritated her—-to think of this pair in charge of her—of Junel- la’s clean cellar and cupboards. And the linen closet, too. Yet sha somberly recognized that she had no right to feel Irri- tated. Wouldn’t Burl — that hard, lcy-eyed Burl—stare at her if he Imagined her feelings? She saw, after a few days, that the man Toogle was derisive of her in a small, unimportant way. He stared when need brought him to the inner office. Burl never came so far. Lars had been pftetty decent about that, as much for Burl’s sake as for Virginia’s; he was never too busy to hustle out to the re- ceiving platform when a Schriv- er truck rolled up. Still she and Burl came face to face one hot afternoon. Virginia was out in the paring room, Frieda Jorski in a min- ute of horseplay with Nate Ill- son had accidentally run her forefinger into the coring ma- chine. “O, Mis’_Schriver, come here!”’ she walled. ‘You've got the only unjuicy hands on the place—tie this up!’’ Virginia, with the aemile that the women liked and envied, was tying the finger up when Burl strode in with a checked list of barrels. ° Her lips parted. Burl’s glance was brie? on her—and so was hers on him. Brief—and colder than death itself, which is of al] things most cold. - . : All during that September month, with its furious fruit gathering and its yellow road flowers turning brown against the next month, she did not see Burl again.

She saw her atop a Schriver truck with her husband one Saturday afternoon when the height of the picking had passed. O, worse than the husband! A silly, grinning woman with frowsy tow hair in a cheap lavender silk dress. Frowsy, sleepy silk with grease spots on sleeves and waist and skirt. A woman who cooked in her “good’’ clothes! O, what would Juneélla say! Mrs. Toogle, from her high seat in the truck, smiled down foolishly, with an ap- parent touch of patronage, at Mra. Schriver, although she had never before met Mrs. Schriver. It had been the second annoying item in the day. Netty Keyes had returned to Alba- ville and had sent word by Lars that she. needed the position more than did Mrs. Burl Schriver. . True, doubtless, in a way. Most untrue, in another way. Netty might need a position —but did she need a buckleér and a@ shield, as well aS & weapon against a man’s coldness? It was silly, of course, to allow a woman like Mrs. Toogle to mix into your dreams, to poison your waking hours. Virginia had read aplenty. Penelope and Ivy bought the late books—that had nothing to do with the paper backed Gypsy Forecast which Junella kept in her top bureau drawer. Mrs. Toogle was merely a symbol. A symbol, the white lipped Virginia whis- pered one night to herself, of slattern waste of life. But she, Virginia, was the slJatterna. She had spotted her ‘‘best garments’’ without heed. She had thrown away what she might have saved. O—the wasted months, this un- happiness that need not have been! But she knew that her lips would never unlock—unless Burl’s unlocked first. And perhaps he did not care, and never would care. And then in a slack week-end when her~ mother had asked her to stop in a grocery store and order several items, Virginia again encountered Mrs. Toogle, The woman was peering up uncertainly at shelves. ‘I guess that’s all,” she had ended” doubtfully. ‘“‘My land, I wish I'd wrote things down——-O yes—some lye. I ain’t a person to _. rub when I can soak clothes. And I spilled some strong tea on a lace dinner cloth—a real small cloth, but sd Lye! LYB! ° Virginia’s cheeks were scarlet. Had her ears deceived her? She turned blindly and got out of the store, in a very panic over what she might say to this woman before she could regain control of herself. O—it must be the Madeira and filet cloth that Penelope had given She collided with Burl. On the pavement, he teetered a minute to regain his balance. And then her scarlet face and blazing eyes took his attention. So, in Caesar’s time might a Dolabella dame’s eyes have blazed coming upon a slave engaged in destroying the purple cloths and the fine, hand-woven silks that lay carefully in their mistress’ marble chests. For all gods pass away. But not Penates. And cr-r-rack! O, something cracked; an‘ it may have been ice. “How dare you let that woman wash my. linens in lye?’”’ demanded Virginia, passion- ately, “O, how dare you!” “Why don’t you come home and see after them yourself, Virginia?” asked Burl, gently. A small town, Albaville, except in fruit time when its population became a picking horde. They turned to watch—on Main street. The Schrivers were making up! Netty Hayes saw—and flew around the corner to get to the canning factory. Lars Huckley saw and phoned Vona. “Gosh, I'm glad. Seemed like the world was as bad as folks write in the papers. But guess now it isn’t.’’ Rabe Meadows saw and chuckled at the first person his glance encountered. ‘‘Won- der what the two fought over—O, howdy, Kroft. Guess I might as well pay them dam- ages—though I swore no court could make me.”’ Henry Kroft’s diverted glance came from the Schrivers. ‘“‘O—hello, Rabe. O, well— guess I won't starve if you never pay mé, Mebbe both of us better forget.’’ He, too, sald inquisitively, “I'd like to know what the rumpus was about with them two. Well, {t's done now. And I’m glad. Nice young pair.’’ (Copyright, 1928.) Washington’s First Thanksgiving CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. inclined, or tennis courts, no cars to be whisked about the countryside in, what did they find to amuse themselves, other than to dress with fancy the invitations they bugged within their fair bosoms to parties and balls yet to come? The columns of the Intelli- gencer bespeak eloquently their amusement. “Espectally for Ladies,’ reads one ad an- nouncing the arival in the city of a complete new stock of furs, boas and muffs. “700 muffs of the most rare and choice descrip- tion,” flows the “reader” in captivating style, ‘and with the announcement, the assurance of the dealer that, “his fair customers may not only please themselves in style and qual- ity, but also in price, by favoring him with a call.” And misses and children also. With winter coming on, with Congress shortly to be open, with questions of vital import to the Nation in the air to be settled, one may readily visualise the avidity with which the fair sex seized upon this opportunity to be- deck themselves in the latest fashion of furs and boas to attend the sessions. And too, was not the grand ‘“‘military and civil ball’ -to be held at Carusi’s within the week? But with all this finery and fashion, with all the good things of life to enjoy that day by those tn a position to enjoy them, what of that other life in the city, bound to service and free, not so fortunately situated as to affluence or color? This life found pastime for the most part in enjoying the spectacle of its better coun- terpart enjoying itself. In and around the servant quarters of more than one mansion that day one might hear the raucous shout of menials and scullions, getting out of life a reflected beauty of attachment and faith fulness. Recriminations no doubt flew fast and furious among family retainers as it is as much a falling of servants to uphold their masters and their household as it is for mas- ters and their household to “keep up with the Joneses.” : . Along the waterfront one might behold the elite and the poor waiting to take passage down the river to Alexandria on the packet. Or by that.other method of transportaticn, the rail, to Baltimore. That is if all were not too angry with the road for its high rates, The butchers and candlestick makers no doubt hung around their stalls for we find this notice in the Intelligencer the day be- fore Thanksgiving: ! “The butchers have canceled their Thurs- day market, having come to that conclusion in consequence of the mayor's proclamation.” But with what anticipation must Mr. Weaver, butcher at stajis 47 and 49 Center Market, have waited. for Saturday. He announces that on that date, the 29th, he will have for sale at his places of market ‘a superior lot of buffalo méat, to which he invites the at- tention of his customers and epicures.” He further announces it ‘‘of the very finest qual- ity, and the first ever slaughtered in the Dis- trict, grazed and fed by Mr. Samuel Hefle- bower, of Clarke County, Va.” Thanksgiving Day celebration by Wash- ington received one rebuff. In 1859, as a result of slavery agitation, the City Council refused to set aside the day as a national holiday owing to the fact that it was of New England origin. The mayor, however, issued his proclamation despite the fact, induced to. do so “under the pressure of public - opinion.” : : Flies Through Water. This Bird Can Do Some Queer Tricks But Does Not Use Its Feet. | Unlike a duck or other strictly aquatic bird, the dipper or water angel does not paddle about on the surface of the water, nor does it use the feet in propelling itself in or througn the water, for, with all the changes its mode. of life has brought about, its feet are dis- tinctly those of a thrush. In a word, says Nature Magazine, it em- ' ploys only the wings and actually files through the water. The effort requires as much or perhaps more energy than is expend- ed in flying in the air. Wading boldly in, usually with the head upstream, until quite submerged, it strikes out with the wings and forces itself down-— ward to the bottom where its sharp claw? may assist it in some degree by clinging to . chance inequalities; but the wings must be kept in action. The moment they cease, up comes the bird like a cork either to take wing tn the air or to permit itself to be swirled and carried for: a short distance on the surface of the stream.

By MERCEDES PHELAN HAYDEN. N Weduesday, November l4th, the Catholic Washington 5 | opened the Lniversity in doors of its enormous ZSymnasiuin to largest, most distinguished sentative gatherings and most repre which has assembled in the Capital City for many years In the which mammoth building to capacity were President Calvin Coolidge was to be con- ferred the honorary degree of doctor of laws, and many prominent officials representing the Government and a large number of im. portant Diplomatic Corps.

The alumni. student body, and the university number proudly in evidence; rarchy, present. in larg ecclesiastical ,e nuNMm- proper note to friends of and of the rector, brought the present up to several thousand. The occasion was tie inauguration of Mgr. James Hugh Ryan, S. T. D., Ph.

His splendid zeal and untiring efforts in its inter- ests, his distinguished scholarship and his kindly personality became so much a part of the institution that in his retirement from its rectorship, the Catholic University sut- fered a distinct loss. Dr. Ryan also has a record in the scholastic achievements as an trator presages for the successor to Bishop Shahan. The youngest of the university’s will be just 42 in December. He has usually been the youngest man in any field of en- deavor in which he found himself. Because of his youth a dispensation was necessary be- fore he could be ordained a priest. He was just 22 at the time and was already a doctor ef sacred theology and a doctor of philos- ophy. Though widely experienced, he is still young in his ideas and in his sympathies. He is the type of man students like—pleasant, good-natured, friendly, easily approached but not easily persuaded. The boys will find in the new rector a good friend and an impartial world and his past educator and adm)inis- university a worthy reclors -— gnd fair leader of their academic activities, i their work, a man keenly interested in every phase of be it chemistry or business law, _ glee club or football. When you mention football to Dr. Ryan you immediately awaken his interest and at- tention. In a second you recognize in him am ardent follower of the game. He can launch into a discussion of its history and \ gurrent successes with all the enthusiasm of a sophomore. He attends all the big games in Washington and New York. It goes with- C eut saying that Catholic University’s Fcot- : (= ae ‘Ind., December 15 ball Team can not help but feel a new impetus and inspiration in the interested support of their new rector. He played football him- self at Duquesne. If one can judge from his well-built, sturdy figure and that driving feree so obviously within him, he was no mean player. Though football has been his ene diversion and recreation in the midst of his very active life, he is interested in other forms of athletics. He can be seen attending all the university’s games, fan and comrade who does not hesitate to join in the cheering. when the occasion de- mands encouragement. The new rector was born in Indianapolis, 1886. His family is one ef the oldest in that city and his ancestors were pioneers in the State. He is the only ehild of John Marshall Ryan and Brigit Rogers Ryan. His father, who died ten years ago, was superintendent of motive power for the Lake Erie & Western Railroad, now a part of the New York Central system. His mother stilr lives in Indianapolis. _ Mer.

During the past seventeen years, Dr. Ryan has written books, made notable contribu- tions to leading magazines and reviews here and abroad, toured Indiana making war- time speeches, been president of a college, zonducted with marked success a million-dol- lar campaign, acted as executive secretary of the department of education of the National Catholic Welfare Conference and continued his work as a teacher of psychology and philosophy. Any one of these activities would make most of us feel our importance. The sntire combination together with other hon- ors not here mentioned have not succeeded in depriving James H. Ryan of his delightfully unaffected manner. His entire simplicity in everything he says and does is one of his greatest assets. His friends cite his patience, persistence and energy as his most striking characteristics, The four years which the youthful semi- narian spent in Rome were marked by pleas- ant associations with his fellow countrymen who like him had been sent to the Holy City for higher theological studies. Intensive work and a brilliant record proved that Bishop Chartrand of Indianapolis had not under- valued Dr. Ryan's ability when he selected this young hoy to continue his studies at the American College. Dr. Ryan-has always been interested in music and is especially fond of singing. He was one of a number of students privileged to sing in the eelebrated choir of the Sistine Chapel. He says that the singing of the divine offices in this chapel famed for its exquisite beauty and world renowned paintings always gave him a pleasure rarely to be found in any other surroundings. — He was ordained Lacey _ the ha ee of St. a iG ‘ A +e ey Py * oo ad Sy ma Lait eae” oes P ss ee Ps 4 we OP oe es college, Jack became ill and had to be shot. Every one missed the dog’s familiar scratch- ing along the corridors. When his master returned he said little about his pet and the girls were disappointed at this apparent lack of grief. A few weeks later, Dr. Ryan stopped in the middle of a lecture as he heard a scratching sound in the hall. He paused a second as if waiting for the dog’s entrance and then said simply, half apologetically, ‘*Excuse me—I forgot and thought it was Jack.”’ It was then that the students real- ized how very much he had missed his friend. In 1921 Dr. Ryan was made president of the college. He was able to serve in this capacity for only a short period, as he was elected executive secretary of the depart- ment of education of the National Catholic Welfare Conference and came to Washington to take up his duties with that organization. In 1922 he became instructor of philosophy and a little later associate professor of philosophy at the Catholic University. He served in this capacity during the past year. That a professor of philosophy can still be a very public spirited citizen and a con- vincing talker elsewhere than on the lecture platform was demonstrated by Dr. Ryan’s war-time activities. The World War began while he was at St. Mary-of-the-Woods. Noth- ing would have pleased him more than to have enlisted in the service of his: country as a chaplain. When permission to do so was not forthcoming he threw himself heart and soul into the war activities of his State. He became greatly endeared to the business men of Terre Haute by his untiring efforts in behalf of their community war fund, of ‘which he-was one of the organizers. As a member of the State Council of Defense Be traversed the entire State of Indiana making patriotic and eloquent appeals in more than 40 cities. , It was four years ago that the City of Indianapolis found itself badly in need of a Catholic high school for boys. There were about 50,000 Catholics in the city. Many realized keenly their need for this school; a certain. to number bres dade eet the sum for its persistent who could show results What was more natural than that those in authority should select Dr. Ryan as qualify- ing for the position. lle had grown up in their midst and had hundreds of friends in the city. It is true he had never handled a ampaign of such magnitude, but his successes in community chest drives and the adminis trative ablity which he always displayed were convincing proof that he could see this drive through, and he did. Starting with absolutely nothing in the way of equipment and personnel, Mgr. Ryan in one short month and a half raised not only the $1,000,000 which was the goal of the drive, but $250,000 more. He had one paid stenographer; the other help was from vol- unteer workers. And this was all accom- plished with a total expenditure of only 93,000 or the small sum of .0024 for every dollar pledged. The Cathedral High School for boys stands today a magnificcent monument to Dr. Ryan's ndefatigable zeal and energetic labors and to the splendid generosity of the comparatively mall ¢ population of Indianapolis seven hundred boys attend this free school. is an interesting fact that though the usual! rage is about 20 per cent; over 75 per cent the Cathedral High School graduates en college.

He has written a‘number of important and authoritative articles on the problems of the school system and national legislation go-getter ‘atholie Lem ts tional alfecting if It can be truthfully stated that the depart nent of education is largely responsible for marked improvement and progress made in Catholic schools during the last few years. Dr. Ryan’s latest work with the conference has been principally administrative. He was unti! his appointment of the Catholic Uni- versity the executive secretary of the entire organization with its many different branches. In 1921 Mgr. Ryan compiled the first “Directory of Catholic Colleges and Schools of the United States.’’ He is the author of “A Cathecism of Catholic Education” and ‘‘An Introduction to Philosophy,” a book very favorably received both here and abroad. He also compiled, translated and published in book form the Encyclicals of Pope Pius XI. Besides distributing his seeds of wisdom and The university's spacious gymnasium | ¢ eae ¢ af be! " ii ig ys » and hey oleae Sree s cism,”’ as its name indicates of truth among various important publica- tions, the learned doctor endows two maga- zines, “The New Scholasticism” and ‘“‘Specu- lum’’ with a large portion of his writings and bis time. Though widely differing in their contributors, these quarterly journals are re- lated to a certain degree in their common interest in philosophy. The ‘‘New Scholasti- , has for its pur- pose the cultivation of a depeer interest in scholastic philosophy of which the late Car dinal Mercier was such an ardent exponent The names of some of the most learned scholars and philosophers of the Church today are found among the list of contributors to this very important organ. “Speculum,” on the other hand, is the of- ficial organ of the Medieval Academy of America and is fostered by some of the most intellectually distinguished laymen in Ameri ca. Dr. Ryan is one of. the editors of “Speculum” and is associated on the Me- dieval Academy board with such recognized savants as Edward Kennard Rand, of Har vard: Charles Rufus Morey, of Princeton; Ralph Adams Cram, the architect, of Boston George Raleigh Coffman, of Boston Univer- sity; Karl Young, of Yale, and others equally well known. As itS name implies, the acad- emy includes in its scope the entire civiliza tion of the Middle Ages. Dr. Ryan is also a member of the American ’btilosophical Association and is secretary and treasurer of the American Catholic Philo- ‘ophical Association. ‘‘You must have some definite hopes for the future of the univer- sity,’’ | suggested to Dr. Ryan. “Oh. yes, my hopes are many,” he re: ed, and continued: “The Catholic is our great national institution, national in its. appeal and in its service. During 40 vears the institution has grown and taken its place alongside of older and better endowed institutions. Its future is bright. Its‘ de- velopment depends on a clear understanding pond- University ai . ‘ The university and its associated institutions number over 3,400 students. There are 113 professors and instructors on its own faculty. Twenty-five colleges and nearly three hun- dred high schools and novitiates are affillated with the institution. New buildings have been added from time to time which greatly enhance the beauty of its campus. Of par- ticular note is the National Shrine of the [Immaculate Conception, which is: still in process of erection. The very fine Martin Maloney Chemical Laboratory was built a few years ago. This year the students have at their disposal the very beautiful, white stone, lofty pillared new library, the gift of John K. Mullen, of Denver. The library can accomodate 1,000,- 000 volumes. It now contains besides books and periodicals of a general character, the many famous collections which have been presented to the university. During my interview with took occasion to question him about his other. Though it is a favorite question with interviewers, it seemed particularly ap- propriate in Dr. Ryan’s case Those who know him and his mother remark the singu- larly close union between the two. Mrs. Ryan can well be proud of her only child. He in turn is very obviously proud of his mother. He speaks of her out of the fullness of his heart and with great tenderness. “My mother is only 61,’ he said. “She is a woman possessed of an extremely fine mind; hers is a very strong character both mentally and morally. I have always been greatly impressed by her great determination and her perseverance. She has never done any- thine to make herself well known to the public; her interests do not reach beyond her church and her parish work, but she is the highest type of Catholic womanhood. She has been a daily communicant for years as was my father.’ I could not help. but reflect how much the Mgr. Ryan |] > Underwood & Underwood. (Above in pS President and Mrs. Cooldige and Mgr.

Many members of the faculty’ are men of interna- tional or national reputation. Their names are household words, at least in the learned world. If the Catholic Church in the United States is to take a position in the cultural life of the Nation which rightfully belongs to it, it will be necessary for all the elements of our Catholic life to support unitedly this great institution.” As Dr. Ryan states, Catholic University has grown and developed greatly in 40 years.

The very characteristics which Mgr. Ryan admires most in his mother, her keeness of perception, efficiency in action and tenacity of purpose, are the very traits which have caused this compara- tively young man to take such giant strides in the fields of education and philosophy in this country. He is recognized today as one of our greatest scholars and thinkers. His many friends and admirers predict for him a brilliant future as rector of the Catholic Uni- versity of America.

This project was duly considered anc turned down, but there were many in high official quarters who thought that the captain deserved encourage- ment. Another astonishing suggestion was to trace the German submarines by ineans of seagulls. This came from “a man high up in the scientific world Lis lnagenious idea was to expose plenty of food aboard our own vesse!s so that ihe sea gulls would be trained to hover over them and do the same whenever a German submarine came to the surface. It was argued that the birds would turn Out the best submarine spotters in the world and would follow every under sea boat from one ocean to another. ‘To such Straits were we brought at this time that the proposai Ves actually sent to Earl Jellicoe, but irom @ recent letter to me itt is clea) iat he thought the idea was fantas- tical.

But the earthworm has ita hole, the cater- Pillar can roll up and play dead under a leaf, and the mole lives hidden from his enemies. The giraffe abides on the open plains amidst lions and leopards. To every- one of these carnivores its flesh is an appetizing delicacy. The giraffe is grotesquely conspicuous at all times. Its neck is ridiculously out of propor- tion to its body, which in turn is fore- shortened to a stumpy and unbalanced lump. Its legs are so stiff and ill- formed that it must drink by spreadc- ing them apart until it takes a violent effort to spring to attention in case of danger. Its teetering gallop is thrown out of balance by the weight of its long neck. It has no claws or teeth for combat. It can make no sound to frighten its enemy or warn its com- rades. Surely the pervading wisdom of the universe slipped a cog when the wretch- ed giraffe was allowed to wander into the African den of lions among which it leads its guileless life. It can not fight, run, cry out nor hide well enough to escape its bloodthirsty enemies. I think it was Conrad that once sald the best way to deal with injustice was te ignore it. This is what the giraffe does. He accepts the injustice of his fate with a dignity and gentleness that ig worthy of the best traditions of a gentleman. The family life of the giraffe ts ex- emplary. Ws became so accustomed to the rowdies and grouches of the jungle that it was a distinct pleasure to fall in with giraffes and watch their bland goings and comings. among the other animals. Never did they dash about kicking and snapping the way the gebras did, nor snort and quarrel, as is common with the rhino amongst his kind. From time to time Osa and I came unexpectedly upon a mother giraffe and her gangling baby. The latter, like all its kind, was always consumed with curlosity. The sight of us two-legged animals was something entirely new. That we might represent danger seemed not to occur to it. Ag the litile fellow craned his long meck and trotted a few steps in our This made a splendid picture of mother love. The adult gave every sign of terror. She knew we were not like the grazing animals to which ehe was used. Probably our movements were nearest to those of the beasts of prey that she knew would find a tasty morsel in the tender haunches of her child. Yet she would not desert it And not until the silly little creature consented to trot away with his adoring but terror-stricken mother would she leave our vicinity. One strange phenomenon we often saw among the giraffes was a hailf- grown female followed about by severa! babies. Osa was sure that this was some sort of “nurse maid” arrangement. She used to report to me of a night, “Martin, I saw a herd of giraffes today with two nurses and five children.” Probably the truth of the matter is that the mothers are killed by lions while defending thelr young. The in- faut manages to escape during t!) Struggle and rejoins the herd. But since the other adults are already taken up with their own young the orphans inust band together for mutual protec- Lion. Of course, we never were able to make a study of the animals until we saw them in an undisturbed state a! or near a waterhole. One scorching day I sat reading in my blind. The animals outslde were logy with the awful heat. A miasma of white dust filled the air, kicked up by the thou- sands of hoofs milling about me. This dust prevented good photography; but I hoped the air would clear later in the day. Suddenly I heard something picking away at the roof of my shelter on the side away from the waterhole. “Ah-ha,” I thought, “that baboon again.” One had been annoying me for some time “Now I'll get him.” Quietly laying down my book I crept to the S-shaped passage through which we entered and stuck my head out, ready to club the knave who had the temerlty to tamper with my edifice. To my surprise, there was not an anima! in sight, save a herd of wildebeest and zebra some distance away. I craned my Election Likely to Give Power to Lloyd George BY J. W. T. MASON (Written for the United Press). RELIMINARY political akirmishing Pp has begun in Great Britein for the general election to be held next year, om a date as yet unfixed. The issues will be foreign policy and whether the present Conservative government has done all possible to stimulate home prosperity. The failure of the Anglo- French naval agreement to win popular approve! in Great Britain will play an important part in the election. There is a possibility that Lloyd George will emerge from the campaign holding the balance of power. The two predominant parties in the house of commons are Conservatives and the Laborites. The Liberal group, led by Lloyd George, is momentarily in eclipse. But, should the election be close, as between Conservatives and Laborites, neither may have a majority over all. The followers of Lloyd George may be sufficiently numerous to prevent this. In such a case, a bloc consisting of Lileyd George and the Conservatives or pack ie George and the Laborites would probably be attempted. With whom Lloyd would wish to as- sociate politically would depend on the conditions existing at the time and with whom he could make the better bargain on behalf of his supporters. Many pre- dictions have been made since the World War that the British Parliament would eventually have to accept a bloc ministry, but the British temperament objects to this system of government, (despite the. fact that is was the bloc cabinet, under Lloyd George’s premier- . ship, that carried the war to a success- ful conclusion. Since the Labor’ government of 1924, when Ramsay MacDonald was prime minister for some ten months, the La- borites have learned much political caution. Lack of strategy ca the downfall of the MacDonald ministry. The Leborites suggested too forcefully that they were out to pass class legis- lation exclusively favorable to them- selves, If ld and Lloyd George were able rate in a new gov- ernment, have to be on a different basis, and there are indica- ms that we present | of the party have learned this lesson. to-"@20 it Be is, ee Since 1924, British trade unlonism has inclined more and more toward the American economic principle of co- operation between labor and capital. Before then capitalism was considered by very many Britfeh workers to be their major enemy and the desire to attack capitalism af every available opportunity was considered the para- mount policy. Now, however, the les- son is being learned that both play an essential part in modern industry and especially that economic progress re- quires the developement of highly gifted executives who can not be created by legislation. If, therefore, the 1929 general elec- tion results in a Labor majority in the house of commons, or if a _ Labor- Lloyd George bloc is formed, there wlll be little fear of the cry of bolshevism being raised. A small group of ex- tremists exists among the British work- ers, but the communistic doctrines of these partisans have not been accepted by the Labor party. On every recent occasion when the issue has been ad- vanced at labor congresses, the com- munistic doctrines of Moscow have been repudiated by overwhelming ma- jorities when put to vote. A number of British industries desire to see a tariff established, lower than the American tariff but with the protec- tionist factor emphasized. The Labor and Lloyd George groups do not favor this program. Many Conservatives, perhaps a majority of them, especially among the younger men, gupport the theory of protection. Prime Minister Baldwin, however, is reluctant to make this an issue, for he seems to believe the nation still sticks to the free trade creed, which has served British trade interests in the past. theories are always regarded suspici- ously by the British people, who con- sider their livelihood depends largely on international trade. Nevertheless, the Conservatives point to the fact that trade within the British empire would be largely free under a tariff regime. They desire to stimu- late inter-imperial commercial relations and make the empire as far as possi- ble a self-sustaining unit. But it is not probable the coming general elec- tion will show this idea has as yet con- ‘ verted a majority of the voters. oe SL OTOP * : > Sih QO GLNB E New economic e aE Pe RE {AR HPPA RNA AA 1 THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. eee Se | my) aa | At!

Deciding that the baboon had heard me coming out and had run away, I was about to return to my time-killing task when I heard a rustle over my head, I glanced out and found myself looking into the familiar brown eyes of a towering giraffe right above me.

Finally it began slowly to spread its four feet. Despite its long neck, it could not lean over far enough to reach the surface of the water: It had to lower its whole body by dropping the center of gravity in the same way one lowers a moving picture camera by spreading the legs of the tripod, Once it assumed this awkward position, the giraffe seemed to realize that the sooner it drank, the safer it was. Only by a sort of hop and rear could it pos- sibly assume its position for running again. Hig Into the water it plunged its slender tapering nose and drank for what seemed an hour to the pleased pair of men who were spying on it, I found the same thing later at my waterhole blinds. The giraffe always todk longer than any of the other ani- mals to come down to the water, Time and again it would get almost to the edge and then be startled by some stamping giraffe or other beast. It was not afraid of the other grazing ani- mals. I once saw a dozen giraffes pass within 10 feet of a grazing rhinoceros and pay absolutely no attention to him. But they no doubt know their short- comings, and are prepared to flee if any other animal is attacked by the meat-eaters who are always hovering about. , If the .waterhole is among reeds or grass, Or up a small ravine, or in any other kind of country that affords cover to lurking enemies, the giraffe will not drink.

Even out in the open I have seen a single giraffe take over two hours covering the last few feet between itself and the water. Men can not really be. counted among the enemies of the giraffe. Sportsmen seldom kill them. It is pos- sible to secure a hunting license that permits it. But there ts little of the triumph for the big game campaigner that goes with conquering an infu- riated lion, buffalo, elephant or other truly hostile denizen of the plain or jungle. Once the hunter gets within rifie shot of the giraffe there is no trick to kill it. There is no danger and no dodging. Indeed, its curiosity puts him at an even bigger disadvan- tage than its helplessness. For it will stand and watch a safari until the travelers are out of sight. It will watch as long as it dares when the hunter approaches. And even when it runs it will not go far, because its curlosity soon gets the better of its fear Sometimes Boer settlers kill giraffes for their animal's hide, which is the second only to that of the elephant and the rhinoceros for thickness and tough- ness. By slicing a cylinder of the hide around and around the Boer fashions a long, durable whip, which, when properly cured, makes an ideal article for driving his oxen, which he hitches in teams running above twenty an!- mals. The skin also makes excellent harness and boots. But the British gov- ernment recognizes the likelihood that the giraffe will soon become extinct and protects them assiduously against com- mercial exploitation. Natives rarely kill the giraffe, though the meat is considered very tasty by them. Their greatest desire for a dead giraffe rises from their superstition thet the hairs out of a giraffe’s tail are fine medicine against the onslaught of evil spirits. They braid this hair, which is black and wiry, into attractive brace- lets and necklaces, which they wear night and day. Whenever in our travels we come upon e giraffe that has been killed by liong our natives make a rush for the carcass in hopes that the jackals and vultures have left the precious tail in- tact. I must add that guch a find ts not as valuable as we used to think Our guide Boculy later confided to me that the hairs from a dead animal have lost much of their effectiveness in keeping away the devil. A settler was once talking about his superstition and laughing over the native’s insistence that the hairs from the tail of a live giraffe make good medicine. He related the following incident: “I remember seeing twenty giraffes bogged in a mud swamp. We weren't after the poor devils. Somehow, they got ahead of us and seemed to think we were chasing them. Before we knew to me Boculy’s powers are uncanny. every night. it they had galloped straight into a morass that we knew was badly mireri after recent rains, I should have thought the animals’ instinct would have kept them out. But I suppose they were so frightened they lost their heads, “We went up and tried to do some- thing to help them, But our presence only made them struggle deeper ‘and deeper. We went away hoping that when we got out of sight they would manage to eseape from the. clinging mud that gripped their slender legs. Otherwise the group would elther die of starvation or of, fright. “Next day we came back to see what had happened. The giraffes were stlil there, but every one had had its tai! cut off. That meant the natives had been in after them for the miracle- working hair, Not .one anima? was harmed.” Whether they finally escaped is 2 question. 1 certainly hope they did, . Indirectly man caused the death of «4 lot of giraffes when the Uganda Railway was first built. The common giraffe which ts sometimes 23 feet from the crown of its head to the sole of its hoof, continued to wander about its preserve as its ancestors had for count- less ages. Naturally when a hungry lion hopped into the midst of a herd of the tall aniqgals they fled in all directions As a result the railway engineers used to find a dead giraffe every week or 30 lying near the track with a broken Running madly through the darkness, the animals had collided with the telegraph lines with fatal iodo gremnuancietdl Hivshateirandrinnatiaietilitadiitiadlat pyr AMD RST el athe Mea a aT A WMT TTLGTTT ; ity ’ : mt Hidhauldduit | with 20s 1928. af it Misitr + ett «5 fae sean ee ' MA HET Habit isle Mbieddd nih ii gel } Motifs nyt hi! 1] ry! wey iit "y 4 ’ i t ; i habit lit or years an average of over 50 giraffes a year committed suicide this way. It is practically impossible to tame a giraffe. I know of one that was lassoed and died of fright before it could be got into a cage. Half an hour after the rope was around its neck it collapsed. I once saw a baby giraffe that belonged to a settler, but it did not seem at all contented with its surroundings. It was nervous, and anaemic and gave every sign of longing for the wild plains on which it had first seen the light of day. Most gi- raffes that are captured die of a broken heart before they become used to captivity. On the other hand giraffes in confinement give very little idea of those we see in the wild state. I sup- pose only those that are semimorons can endure living without their free- dom; as a@ result almost none of the wild animal's personality survives. Despite this the giraffe is one of the most sought after animals for menag- erle or 200. Justly so, too; for it is one of the strangest creatures that sur- vives trom prehistoric times. It is the tallest animal man knqws.

No doubt, this fact is as good a tribute as any to the giraffe's virtue in neither meddling in another's business nor in loving combat the way so many of the animals seem to. Some tribes of African natives useci to claim that a giraffe often sleeps with its head high in the crotch of a tree in order that it may keep a good look- out for trouble. While it dozes it con- tinually shoots out its long, slender tongue that is narrow and curved 60 that a pencil could s-arcely be inserted in it. Not long ago a giraffe killing was wit- nessed from the windows of one of the trains on the railway running from Mombasa to Nairobi. Apparently the noise of the train hastened the attack of the lions and gave the giraffe some sense of the danger she was in. At any rate, they seemed to rush in with less assurance than usual. The giraffe at once put up the best defense of her child she could by kicking out right and left with her forefeet, but not abandoning it. The train stopped to killed an albino in the Lorain swamp «4% some years ago. Some have nearly black markings, others with their pat- tern so dim as to be nearly invisible. In a herd it is interesting to note that few have the same shade of coloring, all ranging from dark roan to light yellow. Classed by color and markings there are two kinds of giraffes in Kast Africa. On the lower ecee of British East they are blotched with dark markings on a light ground. But when we get to- ward Abyssinia we find their designs “reticulated;” that is to say, they are mostly dark with a network or reticu- lation of white lines placed in a large pattern thereupon. In this connection it ts interesting to note that the history of man’s knowledge of the giraffe compares fa- vorably with the records of sta ser- pents and the like. For many cen- turies the accounts of this animal put it In the class with fabulous monsters Travelers caught glimpses of its great height and grotesque proportions and at once put it in the class with satyrs, sphinses and unicorns.

In this year a pair were sent aS @& peace offering by the Pasha of Egypt to the courts of England and of France. It ig not on record what the pasha thought the monarchs to whom the animals were addressed would do with these strange gifts. But doubt- less he made an impression with this display of his imagination. FPurtlier, reports of the species had been so ex- aggerated that much excitement was caused throughout Europe by _ the passage of the animals. [It is com- monly believed that the average giraffe was ‘so huge that @ man on horseback could’ pass upright under him.” And that he fed on the leaves of the high- est trees. The next shipment north of giraffes was not until 1836. This comprised four animals and was an outstanding event in the natural history of that day. The quartet was led through the streets of the City of London by attendants es- pecially trained for the task, ./ubians in Abyssinian costume lodged the anit- male in their quarters in Regent’s Park.

Undaunted by the roars of the lions an American newspaper reporter at thig point sprang from his coach and rush- ed out, unstrapping his camera as he ran, stumbling over the dry, hard ground.

The natives tell of a certain comrade- ship that occasionally seems to exist between elephants and giraffes. There are certainly traits of similarity be- tween the two animals. Both are in- clined to live and let live. Both have dignity and decency in their relations . 7 a; POE Atal Mr eree ek ae PG 20 g7- ~ aif « om | Ps ow” a) Mother and baby giraffe on the Serengeti Plains of Langanyika, This mother has the most peculiar markings we ever saw ona giraffe—the markings being leaf designs.

Schillings, the African traveler and explorer, relates how he fell in with a big male giraffe consorting regularly with a palr of elephants for mutual friendship and protection. Probably the giraffe could see farther and better than the elephants; and the elephants in their turn prevented attack by the giraffe’s worst enemy, the Lion. Another curious belief among some of the natives is that giraffes talk te one another by means of their tails.

UNDEFEA By MYRON R. HUFF et 'M through with the fight game. I I shall never go back to the . ring.” So spake James Joseph (Gene) Tun- ney, undefeated heavyweight champion of the world, following his second suc- cessful defense of the crown won from Jack Dempsey. Tunney's marriage to Miss Mary Jo- sephine Lauder, heiress to the millions left by her father, a partner of Andrew Carnegie, will assist him in maintaining that resolve; so, too, will his tempera- ment, for the champion, colorful in his way as no title holder has been, dislikes the game which lifted him from a ship- ping clerkship to the plane of million- aire in his own right. Tunney’s resolve is likely to hold, If it does, he will join a select circle, for he ig only the fourth champion in the modern history of boxing to relinquish his throne undefeated and in the full flush of his fame. The others have been Jack McAuliffe, lightweight title holder from 1886 to 1896; James J. Jef- fries, heavyweight kimg from 1898 to 1906, and Benny Leonard, ruler of the 135-pounders from 1917 to 1925. . F¥ the three mentioned, only Mc- Auliffe and Leonard have remained steadfast in their retirement.. Jeffries quit the ring undefeated, turning over his crown to the big French-Canadian, Tommy Burns, but returned after four years as the American “White Hope,” to be knocked out in the fifteenth round by the then champion, Jack Johnson, at Reno, Nev. All the other modern-day boxing ehampions traveled the fistic pathway down to the little door marked “De- feat.” Even then, many of them were not satisfied to accept the inevitable They fought on until the last vestige of drawing power vanished or creeping age and punished physique forced ring- ing down of the final curtain. Egotism, that self-hypnosis which keeps a one-time champion from realiz- ing his day has passed; the pressing meed for money, so easy to obtain in the fight game, and the lure of the ring—the wine of public adulation— keeps most fighters’ hands in their gloves until nature, outraged, puts a final halt to the business. McAuliffe, first of the modern ring champions to retire undefeated, was, in his day, most colorful of them all. Born in Jork, Ireland, in 1866, he emigrated to America with his parents at the age of 16, locating first in Bangor, Me., later in Brooklyn, N. Y., where, in the cooper district, he first exhibited his fighting prowess. His professional contests be- gan in 1884, when he won his first 21 battles, each within 7 rounds. Jack captured the ..¢htweight cham- pionship of the world from Billy Fra- wier, whom he defeated in 21 rounds at Boston in 1886. During his defense of the title McAuliffe met and con- quered such men as Austin Gibbons, Billy Myer, Horace M. Leeds, Jim Ryan, Young Griffo, Owen Zeigler, Jimmy Carroll, Walter Campbell and Buck Mc- Kenna, not to mention a return en- gagement with Frazier, whom he sto in 3 rounds, and a 74-round draw with Jem Carney, English cham- pion. McAuliffe’s last battle was an exhi- bition contest with Kid Lavigne, whom he met on March 11, 1896, in New York. Following the fight, McAuliffe an- nounce hig decision to retire undefeat- ed. He handed over the lightweight championship bauble to Lavigne. McAuliffe perhaps will be best re- membered for his battle with Billy Myer at Judson, I1l., a bout which lasted four hours and was declared a draw. At the close McAuliffe revealed he had fought the last three hours with a broken arm, his strategy and heroic stocism hiding the injury from his opponent and the latter’s handlers. Jeffries was next of the modern ring gladiators to quit undefeated. The big West Coast boilermaker ruled his realm from 1898, when he knocked out Bob Fitzsimmons in the eleventh round at Coney Island, to 1906, when he retired, bequeathing his title to Tommy Burns, an Australian, whose claim originated from the fact he had just defeated Marvin Hart in twenty rounds. Burns dominated the ring only two years, losing the championship in Aus- tralia to Jack Johnson, who gained the decision after fourteen rounds. No real contender loomed on the fistic horizon and the sporting press and boxing public began a campaign to lure Jeffries from retirement. It was successful. Jeff. supremely confident, trained lackadaisically, spending hours in a swing reading when he should have been sweating off excess pound- age. He entered the ring against the big negro from Galveston in poor con- dition. His superb constitution and game heart kept him upright fourteen rounds, but he went down for the count in the fifteenth. LJ EPPRIES, even then, was not fin- ished with the ring. His last pub- lic appearance was at Los Angeles on May 13, 1921, when he fought a three- round exhibition with Jack Jeffries. Benny Leonard, yclept Benjamin Leinert by fond parents, will go down in history as one of vhe greatest of the game. Born in New York City in 1896, his fighting record included 22 bouts by thx time he was 16 During his Ca- reer he foughi nearly 200 bat- tles, scoring 04 knockouts. He lost only one de- cision—to Jack Britton — t h ¢ bout for the wel- terweight title late in his ca- reer. He was twice counted & out, first when Be facing Joe Shu- grue in 1912 and again while op- posing Frankie Fleming the fol- lowing year.

They enter a wide variety of enterprises, but almost. invaria- bly the stage claims their at- tention for at least a brief pe- riod before the pu blic forgets who they are. Jack McAuliffe, for many years following his re- tirement, trod the “boards,” do- ing boxing exhi- bitions and «4 monologue. At the age of 62 he now lives per- manently inNew York, where he engages in the business of sell- ing electric wire and conduits. He enjoys excellent health and its in- clined to look upon today’s crop of boxers with disdain. “They are #80 busy trying to The climax clared Heeney.

Im my day I often had to fight my opponent, then slug my way through his friends to get out of the hall, and later, perhaps, put up another battle to obtain the prom- {sed purse.” Rugged old Jim Jeffries resides in California. He was born in Carroll, Ohio, but was raised on a farm near Los Angeles, and calls the Golden State home. Following his defeat at Johnson’s hands he purchased the fa- mous Burbank ranch, where, for a time, he raised blooded stock. Five years ago he announced himself bank- rupt, and in desperation launched forth as a boxing manager, but his lone protege proved a “bust,” in the vernacular of the ring, and the dream faded. Fate, however, was kind. Jeff sub- divided his land holdings at a profit of a quarter million dollars, permitting him to settle his debts and retain a comfortable surplus. Not long ago it was rumored Jim planned to emulate Billy Sunday. one-time major leaguer, and become an evangelist, but he never actually embarked on such a career. Now and then he does a bit of “ex- perting” for the newspapers on im- pending big fights. Otherwise, Big Jeff has taken a place with the rank and file of citizens west of the Sierras. Leonard’s boxing fame still is green in fandom’s memory, permitting him to cash in on his popularity by an an- nual winter vaudeville tour through the larger cities Benny also writes for a sports syndicate and conducts a correspondence course in physical cul- ture. He made a lot of money during his long ring cam- paign, the bulk of which has been wisely invested in bonds and real es- tate. He has no fear of the wolf howling at his door- way. . a > . QO much for th: latter-day activi- tiles of the Big Three who preceded Tun- ney into voluntary retirement. What of the champions who quit the game be- cause of finding true the old, old adage. No matter how good the fight- er, a better man eventually will ap pear? John L,. Sullivan, who reigned undis- puted over the heavies from 1889, when he _ defeated Jake Kilrain in 75 rounds at Richburg, Miss., to 1892, when he was knocked out by Jim Corbett in the twenty - first round, had a long stage career before retiring to a farm at Abington, Mass. It is said Sullivan amassed a fortume of $3,000,000 during his fighting career, but squandered vir- tually all of it. Later he took the pledge, and thereafter saved as he earned, ending his days comfortably rich.

B. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4. racking days have impersonated any one and got away with valuable informa- tion. Such a contingency was guarded against by special warnings to the guards. If they made a mistake, there was a further precaution that any caller would have to run the gantlet of sev- eral lynx-eyed Scotland Yard men be- fore he saw any one of importance. Admiral Hall was a real “live wire,” a man of remarkably quick decision and action. Shortly after he had taken his position as director of naval intelli- gence it was reported to the cabinet that the continental mails were a dan- gerous source of leakage to neutral countries. The matter was referred to Admiral Hall for the necessary action. immediately he telephoned to the G P. O. to hold up all outward-bound mails to the continent. Two days later the postmaster general was thoroughly alarmed at the accumulation of letters, which was already mountain high. In a panic he rang up Admiral Hall and asked if nothing could be done. “We are being snowed under,” said. All the reply he got was, “They will make a good bonfire.” Next day Admiral Hall found a build- ing at Westminster and had the mai! transferred there, to await the discre- he .tiom of the censor. Here they lay for "ee : oa weeks while they were being thoroughly examined. Among our important captures dur- ing the early part of the war was Com- mander von Rintelen. He was a retired German naval officer, who had started business in Mexico and had acquired a if deal of influence in Central Amer- He was traveling under another name and was on his way from America to.Germany. Upon his ship touching Sieed on the a Scotland Yard man ap- on the scene and placed him un- cabin with him at the time famous London actress, with had become friendly on the There was a dramatic scene at ae ~~ “a ia * 7 ® CS anseeee ete toe connection with the funder preaure of nd sted questions admitted that he had been an army reservist. Suddenly the late Lord Abinger shapped out in German, “Salute!” De- spite all hig cleverness, Von Rintelen was tricked into giving him a naval sa- lute. Then he confessed and became quite talkative, but never revealed any Iin- formation. To draw him on, Admiral Hall remarked, “Germany made a great mistake in going to war, as she was getting a hefty grip on the world by peaceful penetration.” “And you made a mistake in having an alliance with France,” retorted Von Rintelin. “Your natural alliance was with Germany, and Great Britian and Germany together could have policed the world!” One Sunday morning a telegram ar- rived for the director of naval intel- ligence. In his absence I opened it. It announced that Von Rintelen had escaped from Donnington Hall, where he had been interned. I showed it to @ peer who was friendly with Admiral Hall and asked him to pass the message on to him when he arrived, but as he knew this would put the D. N. L. ina particularly bad temper he put the onus on to me. Upon Admiral Hall’s' arrival he asked me if there was any news, thinking, of course, of the “40 O. B.” telegrams. I said nothing except this, handing him the wire. He paced up and down the room for a few seconds, apparently in deep thought, and then rushed to the tele- phone. His order was to stop all trains at the next stations and all outgoing ships. About 7 o’clock he rang up for me and asked, “Any news?” For answer I handed. him another telegram an- nouncing that Von Rintelen had been captured at Leicester. He rubbed his hands together glee- fully. “Now I'll put the —— where he can’t get away,” he exclaimed. A few days after Von Rintelen’s capture Admiral Beatty reported that a large number of vessels were being held up _at Scapa Flow on Admiral Hall’s orders for Admiral Hall had forgotten, but simply wired, “Let them go.” Just before America entered the war a big liner was sunk in the Bristol Channel with heavy loss of life. Among the passengers was a Mrs. and Miss Hoy, wife and daughter of an American doctor practicing at Birmingham When the ship went down both these ladies were huddled into a small boa! and after indescriable anguish for many hours in a terrific sea, the mother died in the arms of her daughter. A very brief description of this appeared ir the London press the next day. There was the sinking of the ship, with the loss Of sO many pasengers, but not a word of this tragedy on the high seas All that appeared was that amongst the missing was a Mrs. Hoy. She had u sOn who was a prominent. business man in London. When he learned the details in connection with his mother’s death he called at the intelligence dl- vision,. admiralty, and insisted upon sending at his own expense a long cable to the President of the United States. He ended the message in the following sense: “If America can’t see their way to fight in the cause of humanity, I will join an English regi- ment as a private in order to avenge the death of my mother.” He didn’t wait on the reply, but lost no time in getting to the front. Shortly after the receipt of this cable Admiral Sims was on his way to.England in mufti. Admiral Sims was not long here before he won the hearts of the British navy. He recognized that the British navy had already suffered, the tremendous task they had still on hand, and was most anxious to help in any concelv- able direction. One of his remarks at the admiralty tickled us, “Say, there is no necessity for any formality, if you want a destroyer, a note in pencil will do.” He never could understand how we knew so much about the enemy agents in the U. S. A., but of course, he knows now after the dis- closure about “40 O. B.” His staff used to be amazed when Admiral Hall would refer to some dangerous person on the other side. They had never heard of him. In every instance they found information from the fo division to be correct. Admiral Sims was up against a ticklish proposition when the American fleet was stationed off Queenstown. His men got ashore and started to make love to the Irish cirls. Some few insults started an in- fernal row. Here we had a regular Cahirciveen fair between the American sailors and the hefty lads of County Cork. There was quite a list of cas- alties from the affray, not a few of them inflicted upon the American sailors because they were distinctly outnumbered. The American naval of- ficers were somewhat worried about what might happen especially to the Irish if all the sallors got shore leave at once, so limited the numbers rather drastically for a few days. However, none of the,sailors applied for this privilege. Knowing American sallors, the officers realized that it was not a case of timidity on the sailors’ part, but something much worse. It was in reality the calm before the storm. The storm, however, was not allowed to inaterialize. An unexpected search of the satlors’ quarters revealed every kind of weapon imaginable, blunt instruments com- prising a goodly percentage. Had they all applied and received shore leave at once, which they were apparently at- tempting to do, it would have been a sad day for the lads of County Cork. Admiral Sims submitted the case to the first sea lord and asked for advice I think the admiralty rather enjoyed accounts of this unreported battle and subsequent preparations for another, as the only suggestion made to Ad- miral Sims was not to let his men ashore until their temper had cooled down. While the American and British of- ficers got on all right this was not the case with the lower deck, as there was a good deal of friction between the jack tars owing to the then great dif- ference in pay. This enabied the Americans to take possession of the loon where there was a good looking armaid, while our own men, who felt that they had more than their share of fighting, could only view her from che e _, Wopsrisht 1928.) death of the latter’s second wife. Sullivan, like Jeffries and Leonard, took a filing at reporting upon occasion which recalls a humorous incident serving to indicate the true Sullivan spirit, a spirit whose flame was un- wavering to the end. John L. had been engaged by a press bureau to “cover” the Willard-Moran bout in Madison Square Garden, New York. Willard, as records and news- paper files reveal, was the winner, but Sullivan was loud in his disapproval of the verdict. “That man Willard is no champion!” he exploded. “He couldn’t stop. a man 50 pounds lighter than himself If I had my way, he’d have lost his title!” For a man credited with between SS. —— ee =: SE om — ee a es The Lamb of W. H. Hudson’s Sister Mary, Which Almost Turned Into a Dog. By PRESTON WRIGHT E do not generally regard the W sheep as an animal possessing individuality, but the lamb which was the pet of the family of W. H. Hudson, the famous naturalist, proved that its kind can have original- ity and initiative if placed in surround- ings conducive to the same. This lamb was quite properly called “Mary's Little Lamb.” It belonged to Hudson's sister Mary in their youthful days on the Patagonian pampas. It was motherless and was brought in from the flock to be cared for by the tender-hearted little girl, who was a great lover of all sorts of pets. Mary Hudson kept her lamb actually as white as snow. Wearing a gay rib- bon, it followed her everywhere. As it grew older, it loved to race and play other games, but as its mistress often would be busy at her studies it had to seek other comrades. Eventu- ally it mee friends with the puppy dogs of th place and ultimately wi the older ot An exhibition bout between Jim Jeffries and Tom Sharkey, with Tunney as rferee. 160 and 180 knockouts during his long, colorful career, who once demanded of his manager, the beloved William Mul- doon, that six of the day’s best heavy- weights be obtained and he'd dispose of them all between Monday and Satur- day, the howl appeared justified. Jim Corbett, who won the title from Sullivan, like the veteran Muldoon and hale old Jack McAuliffe, resides in New York, where admirers of clean, whole- some living and properly cared for physiques point out all three with par- donable pride. Corbett at 62 has the appearance and agility of a man of 40. He appears at intervals behind the Broadway footlights, conducts health classes and writes boxing articles for newspapers and magazines. His me- a er moirs, “The Roar of the Crowd,” has not yet lost appeal, although the first edition came from the press several years ago. Jess Willard, although losing his title to Dempsey at Toledo on July 4, 1919, did not quit the ring until 1923, when he met Luis Angel Firpo, co-star with Dempsey in that fiery two-round classic at the Polo Grounds. The Wild Bull of the Pampas knocked out the Man Mountain in the eighth round. During his latter days as champion Willard purchased the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show and for several years after losing to Dempsey continued manage- ment of that touring aggregation of riders and ropers. Later the circus was sold for a sizable sum.

He owns several apartment houses in Los Angeles, possesses a string of race horses, prominent among vhich are Old Kickapoo and Doctor Wilson. Tunney, who once nS a+ ay s estimated, has earned something like $2,000,000 since he knocked out Bob Peirce in the second round at Paris in 1919.

Will the idol of Greenwich Village find in the leisurely life upon which he is embarking the answer to his hopes secretly nurtured since the day, so few years ago, when he walked, jobless, along the streets of Newark? Or will Gene, like some of his pred- ecessors—Sullivan, Corbett, Jeffries and Willard—after the lapse of a year or two, begin to hear a still, small voice coaxing him back? In event such a time comes, shall he have the will to stifle the urge, as did McAuliffe and Leonard, or will he, like Jeffries and Corbett, return to hear the dismal decimals tolled over his prostrate form, the Knell for a king that has passed—ten figurative pickets fencing in Ambition’s little grave?

BE, Williamson persuaded Miss Lilah Freelands, of Hope, N. Dak. to become his bride, he promised hér a honeymoon never before enjoyed by any other woman on this planet. Sailing for the Bahamas, he took her down to the world of ocean life below the surface of the séa and she had the entrancing sensations of witnessing, day after day. the wondrous spectacle that may be viewed among the dwellers of the deép. Williamson follows the uniqué art ol underwater photography. His way of escape from the ordinary sphere of exis- tence is through a flexible metal tube which may be éxtended from 560 to 100 feet to the floor of the watery world. Glass windows permit a view of the surrounding scené, Each day the newly- weds, comfortably seated-on the solif bottom, spent from five to séven hours enchanted by the panorama of this strange, colorful and weird life. Below the surface the water forms an all-surrounding veil. At a depth of 25 feet luminosity is equal to a sunless day, and without the glate of full day- light. The undefsea colors are low in tone, and all the lines &nd forms are blurred and feathery. William Beebe, the author, who has himself made many undéfsea descents, says that the pale yet brilliant “myriad greens of the ocean floor are accented by purple, orange and yellow. Shim- mering over all is sun-pletced sea water, fading shadows to dim aquamarine and amethyst. We néed a whole new vocabulary, new adjectives, to describe the varied désigns and colors.” Often the Williamsons were too ab- sorbed in the scene to come up for meals, and their shipmates lowered food and drink in order to permit them uninterrupted exaltation at the con- Stantly changing mysteries which floated and flashed before their ¢yes . + ° » 66ET was sO Marvelous and wonderful,” said Mrs. Williamson. “We were completely lost to the world out of which we had come. Passing from the earth to a remote planet could hardly be more thrilling than dropping out of the world into life in thé various strata of the sea. The motion of the water gave a gentle rythm to the steel cylinder rising above us, and the ever-changing perspective of odd and beautiful fish, varied coral formations and amazing plant growth gave me a thrilling sense of wonder.” “Although I’ve been stepping into a hole in the sea for sixteen years,” said Mr. Williamson, joining the conversa- tion, “I have never lost the sense of wonder at the strangeness and variety of underwater life. Mrs, Williamson and I went down to the Bahamas to spend a combined honeymoon and vacation. The ease with which we escaped from the world was delightful and the things we saw were so fascl- nating that it was difficult to resist the temptation to expose film and capture these extraordinary scenes for the enjoyment of others.” “Fish are like people—really,” said Mrs. Williamson, eager to tell of her first impressions of the ocean. “There is the schoolmaster, a sort of snappy, dictatorial fellow trying to teach the others to do things. There are fish who swim by themselves and avoid inter- ference with others who use the same traffic ways. Then, some travel in huge schools of hundreds and per- haps thousands. The entire school may remain motionless, suspended for sec- onds, and then suddenly, as if by com- mand, wheel away - “Some species, the hermits, hide in crevices in the coral, and if any others passing along poke their noses into these caves the little fellows snap at them and drive the intruders away.” Mr. Williamson again picked up the theme. “Size does not determine cour- age in the sea any more than it does om land,” he declared. “It is not un- iIBEAUTY AND YOU y viota paris, haps every fourth that I open cries for help with the com- plexion. One writer has large pores, one blackheads, one whiteheads, and one pimples. And, the worst of it is, they all expect some new specific, some simple but spectacular cure that no one has ever told them about before; whereas the secret of a flawless com- plexion lies entirely in inner and outer cleanliness. — Blackhemje—to be frank—are simply dirt lodged in enlarged pores. The 60- called “whiteheads” ar accumulations of oil or secretions not so grimy, lodged similarly. Pimples are the result of in- ternal uncleanliness.

Heavy sauces and gravies are bad as dinner accom- paniments, as is too much fried food, too much cream or butter—anything, if in fact, that could be classified as ‘he a a greasy. Pastry. cake with whipped cream—these are te. npting desserts that must be eschewed in favor of such light desserts as fruits, gelatines, or water ices. None of this diet regulation will be efficacious, however, unless the bowels are regulated, for waste accumulations in the body poison the blood stream with the most appalling results.

Each species or family of polyps seéms to adhere to certain forms of structures. Trees, temples, fortresses and othér patterns and formations Known on dry land may easily be im- agined as one passes through this fan- tastic area of coral) “The forest is the haunt of devil and angel fish and is a fairyland of the sea. The living polyp is colored yellow and brown, and the hue changés as the creature absorbs nutriment from drops of ‘sea water Exposure to the air causes the polyp to decay and dle. The coral which most people know has lost the shades of living tissue which surround it in water.” It was Mrs. Williamson's turn again: “On never tires of this lavish coloring which is cOmmon to almost everything undersea. Bright yellow seems to be the predominating shade. The yellow- tall is one of the most beautiful of fish, and the sergeant-major, 60 called because of his stripes, also has brilliant golden garb.” The Williamsons brought home a stuffed hammer-head shark, 13 feet long, which they caught :fter a fight near Nassau, as well as many photo- graphs of the ocean life of sand bar and reefs. During thé first hour of the re- cent West Indian hurricane they were in their “studio” fathoms below the Surface and the message of its onset Was first transmitted by the “wind in the sea.”” Surges in tle sea are sent miles away from the infilal disturbance by the endless agitation of.the water and the Williamsons. watching the ocean through the glass in front of them, saw that the water was being stirred with increasing sharpness; the increased motion was communicated to the funnel and then the debris at the bottom sifted upward, making the water opaque. A Bahama sponge boat, laden with frightened negroes, sailed past and called out the warning that a terrible storm was coming. The Wililiamsons were hauled to the surface and then rode out the hurricane under the shel- ter of Exuma Cay, near which they had been working. , “It is possible to disconnect the tube from the ship,” sald Mr. Williamson, “and mark its location with a buoy at- tached to the casing. But West Indian storms aré dangerous at the bottom of the sea, when the opacity of the quiv- -ering water makes it impossible to con- duct any observations. “The rain during the storm flattened out the surface of the ocean.and then spattered into it so that it looked like numerous lead pencils when seen from the glass window. The muddy ooze, when stirred up, drifted along like sand in a storm on the desert. All the fish sought refuge in the coral. Five large amberjacks used our compart- ment as shetler until we decided it was time to run from the storm.” ° ~ a 7° 6b agpens apparatus which Mr. Williamson uses for observation in the sea was invented by his father, Capt.

But whatever your favorite method of cleansing the face, remem- ber that thoroughness is the secret of success. To be half-way clean is almost worse than not to be clean at all, be- cause we have deceived ourselves as to the seriousness of our condition. An occasional session with cotton dipped in eau de cologne cleans, refreshes and dries the skin. A lotion as a powder base is better than a vanishing cream for the oily skin. Dry rouge, or any- thing else grimed into the skin, is bad: if necessary, give up rouge for a while or use a good grade of the liquid kind. And don’t scrub in your powder. Use a big fluffy puff, and brush off the surplus, For Aggravated Cases, For aggravated cases of blackheads and whiteheads, where mild methods won't suffice, the face should be steamed under a hot cloth, and each individual disfiguration should be dealt with s@parately. The hot water will soften the hard little deposit, which may then be pressed out. But great car3 should be taken not. to irritate the skin by doing too much at once, or by bruising the flesh with undue pres- sure. Care must be taken, too, not to infect the other pores. Sponging the face with an antiseptic and dipping the fingers in the same solution will prevent infection, and wrapping the. fingers with a protecting towel or a bit of ab- sorbent cotton will do away with the danger of bruising.

When they are hngry they are «xtremely dangir- ous.” Mr. Williamson was born at Liver- pool, England, on December 8, 1881, He came to this country at an early age and attended the public schools at Newport News, where he was graduated from the Newport News High School. With this meager education, Mr. Will- jamson took his first step into what he has made a business career of rare experience. At the age of 16 he started apprenticeship as mechanical drafts- man in the employ of a shipbuilding company. After five years’ employment there, he went West and studied art in Denver, Colo., later returning to Nor- folk, Va., where he was employed as a cartoonist and photographer on vari- ous newspapers. In 1913 he conceived the idea of photographing under water and, after much experimenting with his father’s submarine apparatus, developed a method of producing clear photography taken under water with the aid of artificial light. In his experimental work he made many descents into the sea, sometimes to: great depths, until he had finally worked out a practical method of submarine photography that gave the idea a commercial value. In association with his brother, he organized an expedition to the West Indies, where, with improved subma- rine apparatus, he produced the first undersea motion picture, known as “The Williamson Submarine Expedi- tion.” His next, accomplishment, “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea,” was greeted by critics, producers and the public with great commendation. Under the same firm name he has produced several other undersea phoitopiays. Mr. Williamson has spent the greater part of fourteen years in exploration and picture work in the region of the Bahamas, selecting this spot . because the water is unusually clear. For the last two years he has worked with Scientists in making explorations off Andros Island, and tons of specimens brought from the ocean bed are being assembled in the American Museum of Natural History, New York, where they will be shown in a hall of ocean life. Scientists now working on this exhibit are reproducing the colors and other conditions natural to the naitve home of the specimens. Mr. Williamson do2s not understand why the field of underwater explora- tion has been left er pres ge to He believes that if there been more undersea fighting: ae * ant ne 42 " Sa oe ee hack headed in costume Davy locker. the last war there might have been a de- velopment of undersea work comparable to the work done in the air, ~ J > 7. R. WILLIAMSON has been working at depths of from 100 t» 200 feet, but he expects to be able to double or triple that depth. “There seems to be no immediate ne- cessity for attempting exploration at greater depths,” says Mr. Williamson, “For instance, the continental shelf, which is of an area almost equal to the continent on which we dwell, is less than 200 feet under the surface, and the above graphed marine life. they brought hammer- shark shown Vw 4] BY - ~ An nhininniniianaten aees DoW aed a ae ae soars § Sy SRE : 3 ae xs = SS 9 Oe LSS Ss > “> “ ae pan x A % > This is the device in which Mr. Williamson and his bride were low- ered into the depths of the sea. where they studied and photo- At left are some of the specimens of fish which they photographed. its exploration alone will require the work of many years to come, “The day not far distant when the incalculable resources of the ocean will be made available to man, and in addition to its other offerings the sea will become the great food source of the world above it. Coal, petroleum, is gold, precious stones, chemicals and other products of the earth will be found on the floor of the ocean or be- low it. The exploration of the ocean’s depths has just begun, and a world far greater than that which man has known will one day yield its treasures and secrets.” (Copyright, 1928.)

Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and French aviators who traced the airway down to the Southern Cross have in many cases received world attention in- commensurate with the splendor of their achievements, and air authorities here anticipate that some of these men, or air authorities familfar with their exploits, will invite the attention of the conference to this transcendental chap- ter in the development of transoceanic flying. Some of the great South Atlantic flights were accomplished and almost forgotten before the world was moved to a frenzy of aerial enthusicsm by the flight of Lindbergh across the North Atlantic. Due to the comparative remoteness of the United States from the South Atlantic route and the relative meager- ness of press reports from isolated islands, the personal heroism and tech- nical significance of the early southern crossings have never impressed the North American mind in de cor- responding to that accorded. the North Atlantic flights, ; A review of the South Atlantic cross- ings, by participant or other competent authority, would therefore be an espe- cially interesting feature of the inter- national conference, and would -con- tribute materially to the effort now under way to make the world “air- minded.” _. The South Atlantic, for reasons of geography and history, has been pecu- liarly the realm for exploits by air- men of the Latin American race, and it had is a notable fact that in less than a de- cade Portugal Italy and France all have had a share in the glory of blazing the airway across the ocean. The successive flights not only have attracted world plaudits for the intre- pidity and skill of Latin pilots, but have publicized in a tremendous way the alluring progress and beckoning future of the South American coun- tries. Commander de Pinedo’s book on his three-continent, flight, for example, is magnificently illustrated with scenes of South American city and country. The North Atlantic flights pointed the way to an old continent; the South At- lantic flights are of greater historic Significance in the fact that they led to a new one. The first of the South Atlantic air crossings, according to data furnished: by Department of Commerce authori- ties, was made by the Portugese fli- ers, Capt. Sacaduro Cabral and Admiral Gago Coutinho, in March-April, 1922. They used a Fdirey-Rolls 375-horse- power biplane seaplane. They flew from Lisbon, with stops at Las Palmas, St. Vincent, and Porto Praya, to St. Paul’s Rock, where the machine was damaged. Later they completed their flight to Ferrando Noronba, Pernam- buco, and Rio de. Janeiro. Total dis- tance from Lisbon to Pernambuco was 3,750 miles. The first Spanish crossing was made from January 22 to January 31, 1926, in a flight which for regularity, dis- patch and technique of mechanics and navigation has rarely been equaled. The Spanish airmen were Maj. Ramon France, Capt. Ruiz de Alda, Pilot Du- ran and Mechanic Rada. They used a Dornier Wal-2 Napier engine, 450-horse- power seaplane. Their route was from Palos de Moguer, Spain, to Pernam- buco, Brazil, 3,610 miles, with stops at Canary Islands, Bay de Gando, Porto Praya, Ribera de Inferno and Fernando de Noronha. From Pernambuco, the party, without Duran, continued the flight to Rio de Janeiro. Montevideo and Buenos Aires, receiving an unpare alelled pecepon . each city. In February, 1927, Italian colors flew across the Atlantic wastes.

One of the hap- piest days of all the holidays throughout the year! “Canada Dry,” with its hearty good cheer, matches the spirit of the day Small wonder that “Canada Dry” is the drink for Thanksgiving! For in this rare, old ginger ale you have a beverage of good cheer, a beverage to toast the fruition of the year just past, a beverage to toast the success of the year to come.

FOR THE WASHINGTON-POSF -BOYS AND GIRLS The {unior Post. SECTION OF THE WASHINGTON POST ee ee WASHINGTON, D..C.. NOVEMBER 25, 1928. ———— CHRISTMAS So Many Activities Afoot That All Can Share in Fun Dear Post Boys and Girls—A joyous Thanksgiving to you—one and all. How fast the seasons go around. It only goems a day or two since Fourth of July, and now Thanksgiving is here. The swift passing of the days should remind us that time is the most pre- clous thing we possess. Just think, every morning we start out with 24 golden hours in our purse, each hour set with 60 silver minutes. Such richness, and yet we waste them without thought. Be careful of time, use it sparingly and to good effect. My, how the Thanksgiving essays, poems and drawings rolled in. I hope you like the ones that were selected. Many readers of The Junior Post are becoming interested in the Audubon Bird Life Quilt. We receive a great many questions about the quilt, which are answered for the main part here. If you lack any numbers send to the Circulation Manager of The Washing- ton Post for the paper of that date, inclosing five cents in payment. The size of each bird block tis the exact size that is printed in The Junior Post, At the close of the series you are to put the blocks together in a way we Willi show you then, You may select any kind of material, cotton, linen or silk or other weaves, and any colors, of course. Every week we print a 300-word essay on the bird tn the bird block which appeared the week before. For the winning essay we give a gold pin and we also award a gold pin to the boy or girl under eight years of age who sends in the best colored picture of the bird block which appeared in The Junfor Post on the previous Sunday. That Is to give the Tiny Tots a chance to get into the Bird Life Quilt Contest, as no boy or girl can submit the qullt for the big prize who is under eight years of age or more than eighteen years old. Well, what are we going to have in The Christmas Junior Post? Send in your poems, stories and drawings about Christmas and we will have some sur- prise prizes, money, pins and books. I hope many of you are working in the Big News Contest which appears in The Washington Post daily. Buy The Post every day and get your friends to buy it, too, so you can keep up with the Big News Contest. I would be so Pleased if some member of the Juntor Post Writers Club won the first $20 quarterly prize in that contest. Did you know that the Junior Post Writers Club is now more than 2,000 strong? What a fine regiment of achieving boys and girls that means! Practically every State in the Unton ig represented in the club and many in foreign countries as well. Not all the boys and girls who are eligible for membership have sent in the blanks for their membership pina. They are printed in The Post each Sunday. You should sem. in your ap- plication blank for a pin at once. Re- member it is for a poem, drawing or story which HAS BEEN PRINTED in The Junior Post for which we send the pin. It is not given for a story, poem or drawing you hope to have printed therein. Therefore do not send in an applica- tion blank for a pin with your poem, drawing or story. It only makes more work for your Editor, because the pin will not be sent unless your work has been printed or you have received hon- orable mention for it if we did not have the space to print It. EDITOR JUNIOR POST. Why We Have Thanksgiving. Many hundreds of years’ ago some people decided to sail across the ocean. They wanted to find out if the other side of the land was inhabited by peo- ple, and if it was what kind of people they were. The crew consisted and children. When they were about in the middle of the ocean a storm arose and the women and children were very frightened. The fathers were worried, would not show it. They sailed on and on for a few days, but the storm grew larger and flercer day by day. About five days later the storm de- creased and they were all in smiles again. of men, women but they They all got down on their knees and | At last found anked God for saving them. they reached the islands and that nobody lived there. They built houses of log cabins, but, of course, they were not so comfortable. The men were divided into two groups. One group was the fishing group and the other was the hunting. The river was frozen so the men had to dig holes in the ice to catch some fish. The fish they caught were very few. The hunting was pretty bad, but still it could have been worse. Summer came at last, bringing the birds. The Pilgrims had already found out that Indians lived near. At first they were frightened and very seldom went out of their cabins. But the Indians were very friendly and did not harm them in the least The Indians invited them to a dinner and they prayed to God and worshiped Him, because they were very thankful unto Him. Therefore from then to this day and many, many years to come people will celebrate this holiday which Is called Thanksgiving. a re — x ~, nee by Paut a7w.Kirne 67. ——=s j -_-_- oor to be thane Ihe The First Thanks- LIVINE.

There were more chairs in the room, Steps were heard on the ground near the door. Mary and John raced to see who could open the door first. Father had come in from hunting. He came in put his game and gun down and walked to the fire. Every one looked up. They always did when father came. “It has begun to snow,” he said, “Very hard?” questioned Mary. “No, no, not yet; but I think heading for a heavy storm,” he swered back. “Let’s hope not,” mother said “Is supper ready?” he asked, hunertly. log burning have Was it te an- PE =< = i hak oh ef De —— ee 3 sane uae ‘ Seas ste \ iN TAH es ee —.

The tots, old men.and women all worked. The deer were skinned and cooked, the turkeys were baked and the tables were set. The food was put on the men took their places. feasted merrily. After dinner they told stories and ad ali kinds of sports. When the meal over they all went to church and gave thanks to God for helping them When the Indians left they thanked the white men and promised to help them in time of need.

Jane would go to her room and cry when she thought of the idea that Thanksgiving was but a short time off. But she was determined to earn some money, and went out looking for work, but could not find any. She picked up a newspaper, and looked through it. She saw the page for *oys and girls who had written stories and drawn cartoons. Some of them won prizes. Jane had an idea that she would write a story and draw a cartoon, so she did.

When Mary nad fin- ished her work, she would pack a lunch and go up on the mountain with Peter There they would eat lunch, and afterward walk back to- gether with the roats One afternoon they came home by &@ new path which Peter had found that morning. The were passing by a pile of bricks and other ruin from a burnt house when Mary stumbled and fell. In doing this she had turned over a few large rocks, and disclosed to their view a dark underground space. When they investigated further they found that it was an under- ground passage covered with debris. They hurried home to ask Grand- mother, who had lived in the house. When they asked, Grandmother seem- ed greatly disturbed. She said that she didn’t know, there was probably never a house there, but told them never to go that way again. and to always use the other path The next afternoon, though, Mary and Peter thought that perhaps she wouldn't mind for them to use it just once more They wanted to explore the passage. Peter went in first, and then helped Mary down They had gone just a little way when they heard a rumbling noise, and their light was cut off The opening had filled tn and they were trapped unless, perhaps, there was another opening. There was noth- ing to do but. to follow along the nar- row passage After a while they came to a barricade or so it seemed, and were stopped Peter put his hands out and something toppled over—it sound- ed like iron Also! Light was coming from somewhere behind that box, for that is what the barricade proved to be. Peter trie@® to pick up the box. It looked very easy, but he could not budge it After much pushing, shov- ing, etc., he and Mary finally moved it a few feet—but that was all. it was too heavy They decided to go on, and come back again They were disobeying Grandmother, but just for once. It would seem a shame to leave the box They did not have an opportunity to return to the passage until about a week later, but then- luck seemed to come their way. The lock to the box was easily broken and they. with suppressed excitement, raised the cover. Before them lay emeralds, rubies, diamonds, pearls and sapphire! They dug their hands eager- ly into the box only to find that the jewels weré a thin layer. But under- hair, but eyes were of light in large.

Then Mary’s mother and John's nother came out. John's mother said, “Why are you both quarreling?” After telling her the reason, both the mothe ers sat down with the children and told them that Mary was right. A long, long time ago there were In- dians living near the white people. The Indians used to kill some of the white people, but after a while they became friendly and the killing stopped. The white people gave a party and invited the Indians and ever since then we have rhanieineen Day every year to be thankful that all the white people were not killed. LOUISE M. OPPENHEIM (age 7).

When they reached home, they dumped the treasure before grand- mother, crying “Surprise.” In amaze- ment she looked first at the children and then at the contents of the boxes. The children then told their story. In return grandmother told this: Many years ago she and their grand- father had lived in that house. “Your grandfather had always talked about leaving means to provide for me after his death, but I could never understand him TI think we must have had some enemies or jealous friends; anyway, one night the house was set on fire. “Your grandfather lost his life in a it, but 1 escaped. He was gone with only these words: ‘Look long, search deep, you will never be poor.’ “I could never interpret them and, fas I thought he was delirious when say- ing them, I never bothered to ask anye one else. As time went on, I forgot. “Your mother and father helped meé to build the house we are in now and with this I started out in life without grandfather. And now, my children, you seem to have found what he left for me. He must have gotten these jewels in different countries while he was traveling. “Let’s celebrate,” said grandmother, “Ah, if only your mother and father were here.

So the last Thursday in November was set aside as a day to celebrate and show their gratefulness Long tables were placed under the trees and the food was put upon them. The tables fairly sagged with food. The Indians brought as peace offerings wild fruits, nuts, corn, grain and pumpkins. After the meal was over.the white men and the Indians gathered in a circle and talked. The peace pipe was passed around as the Indians’ way of sealing the peace treaty As soon as the sun was disappearing behind the hills, the Pilgrims knelt and offered a prayer of thanksgiving. Then the men fired a salute in memory of those who had not lived through the hardships and sickness of the past months. The white men faithful friends after the treaty The Indians showed their pale-face brothers how to plant and take care of their gardens and to game, how to fish and selves from wild beasts. very helpful in keeping hostile tribes from other parts of the continent from harming the white men So that is why a legal holiday Is proclaimed on the last Thursday of November.

I remember we had tur- key,” replied Richard. “It seems at least ten years ago. Do they come every ten years, mother?” said Jean again. “Why, Jean. If they come every ten years you couldn’t remember the last one. You are only 9 now,” replied her mother. “Well, mother, I can remember the last one, but it seems so long ago I can hardly remember.” “It seems that way to me, mother.” “Children, Thanksgiving was just Jast year. It doesn’t seem anytime to me, but it seems a long time to you.” “Last year, mother; how could it be?” “It was.” “What does Thanksgiving mean? What do we have it for?” “It means a lot, chtidren. It’s a day set apart for religious services, espe- clally to show the goodness of God. You should express your gratitude, for all He has done for you. The Pilgrims held the first Thanksgiving there ever was, and to it they invited the Indians. They did it to express their thanks to God for bringing them safe across the water to the new land, America, and for all the other good things He did for them. The Indians stayed three days, and after that three days they retired to their dwellings. That time was spent in singing sacred songs and read- ing verses and prayers. They were very glad they had come over so they could worship as they wished. So, children, you should think of all the good things God has done for you and be grateful on Thanksgiving Day.” What Mama Said. (Awarded Book Prize.) I asked my mother the other night, As she tucked me snug in bed, What she had to be thankful for, And you'd never guess what she said. too, Bhe said she was thankful for, A nice, little girl like me, To wash and dry the dishes And set the table for tea.

There are but few persons who have not observed a beautiful the West, a little after sunset, the evening star It is the second planet in order from the sun It is the brightest star in the great firmament at different times, and on this account easily distinsulished from the other planets Venus exhibits from to time a series of phases which are identical in character with those of the moon and the planet Mercury Venus differs, however, from Mercury in the very im- portant point of size Inasmuch as its diameter is considerably more than double the diameter of Mercury, It has a surface more than six times as rreat, and therefore exhibits a far larger area of tllumination than Mercury does. The result of. this is that the planet may often be easily seen in broad daylight Under special circumstances, which re- cur every cight years, this planet shines very pecullar§ brilllancy. True, only about one-fourth of the whole disc is then tlluminated, but that - fraction transmits to us more light than phases of greater extent do, because these latter coincide with epochs when the planet ls more remote from the earth Spots and shadings have on various occasions been noticed on Venus, and though it is not easy to harmonize the various accounts, there seems no doubt of the reality of the facts, or that they must be ascribed to the existence of mountains The great German as- tronomer, Schroter, found very much the same state of things to exist on Venus that he found on the planet Mercury, and putting together what he saw, he arrived at the conclusion that Venus possesses mountains of consider- able height, and that his observations must be taken to imply that the planet revolved on its axis in rather more than 23 hours It ts supposed that great tirregulari- § C€Xist on the surface of Venus. These are visible when the visible edge of the planet is seen as an illuminated crescent. If the planet had a smoother surface, this line would at all times. be a perfect and continuous curve, instead Of which it is frequently to be noticed as a jagged or broken line. Venus revolves around the gun tn 225 of our days, at an average distance of 67,000,000 miles. Venus in size Ils almost Identical with the earth. Its dlameter expressed in miles is approximately 7,800, as com- pared with 7,920 for the earth. Its circumference consequently amounts to 23,400 miles, as compared with 25,000 miles, that of the earth. For many years observers have been searching for a satellite of Venus. Ton- tana, of Italy (1645); Cassini (1672 and 1686) and Montaigne (1761-1762), among very many others, imagined that they had made such a discovery, but these have for many years been con- sidered optical illusions, In conclusion, I would Itke to quote the beautiful and poetic speculation that the eminent French astronomer, Camille Flammarion, uses in the con- cluding paragraph of his treatise on the planet Venus in his book entitled, “‘As- tronomy for Amateurs.” It is as fol- lows: “When we contemplate this radiant Venus, it is difficult, even if we can not form any definite idea as to her actual state as regards habitation, to assume that she must be a dreary desert, and not, on the contrary, to hall in her a celestial land, differing more Star in called This atar ts Venus. time that Noovember 25, 1928. : _ = 2 = + el 7 - , > : > - = a \ \ \ \ Ns \ \ V \ y s Why Should an Amert- can Boy or Girl Be bs ryyY Grateful on Thanks- . e Living?

If you and let your memory wander along with me perhaps you'll why Thanksgiving isn’t turkey and cranberries years when Engiand, France, Germany and all the Euro- pean countries were in the Dark Ages; were in the throes of revolution; while they were fighting and killing for foolish political reasons; while those countries were making the pages of their history ones of bloodshed and horror; while they were not yet learne- ing the meaning of Christianity; there lay across the 3,000 m of ocean @ beautiful country, fresh and clean, in- habited by tribes of Indians. No wrangling over territory; nothing but peace and calm reigned over the woods where the red man hunted his vente son and fished: where the red man’s squaw and his little papoose kept his tent In that land, history: was in the making, too, but it was a much cleaner, finer history. No insurrections, no Inquisitions to blot its pages. Our citizens can look back with pride on its ancestors, can smile hap- plily as they read of the deeds of their country’s many brave heroes, who died in its defense—died that our flag might still wave over the heads of 4 free and happy Nation. Today, they can be our flag shelters such world heroes as Lindbergh, Byrd and others, who are maybe not actually fighting, but who are devoting their lives to fur- thering American prosperity. The American can offer thanks for the return of those brave boys who unhesitantly offered their lives in the country’s service when the .country called for help to cross the seas and fight for world peace And every boy and girl should be thankful that they live in this won- derful country where opportunity knocks at every one’s door, regardless of all circumstances.
