VITAL BY IL. DUCE Mussolini, However, Favors| Actual Naval Reduction as | Against Limitation. —— ie ‘FOR LAND AND AIR CUT Rome, Aug. 24 (N.Y.W.N.8.).—Of- ficially, Italy maintains the closest silence in regard to the disarmament conversations which have been going on between Premier Ramsay Mac- Donald and Ambassador Charles Gates Unofficially, the New York World News Service hag beén able to ascer- tain the chief points in naval opinion Italy's disarmament policy must always be based on three. im- principles which Premier Senate and Chamber of Deputies. First, Il Duce upholds reduction as against limitation. Second, he ap- proved alb-around reduction of land and air forces. as well as of naval forces. Third, Italy can not forego the use of submarines, Submarines Held Necessary. All Italian maval experts are con- vinced that submarines must form a valuable part of this country’s de- fense. The shape of Italy and her extremely long coast line in pr tion to her area and the small sims at her disposal for buliding big craft compared with the United States and Great Britain, make this class of ship absolutely indispensable to the na- tional defense: During the ‘World War it was shown that even Spezia, Ttaly’s most important naval strong- hold, hidden in the gulf, was liable to bombardment from enemy subma- rines which could slip inside the able fortifications. Naval experts here say that sub- marines can only be fought ‘ with) submarines Otherwise, they contend, Submarines come into the harbor and destroy dreadnaughis and cruisers and other big craft. They explain tha®é aircraft also can only be fought by aircraft as anti- aircraft guns are not effective.” An- Other point which to Italian naaval men presages difficulties at forth- coming disarmament conferences is that the problem can not b? reduced | to technical formula, but must have a political premise and be supported by the will to reach a common goal All armaments are determined by some particular possibility of ‘var which every state examines; with reference to some other state. Great) Italy and France must do the) Short Measure Acceptabl. There is a feeling here that when) Ambassador Hugh 8S. Gibson Mace | his famous “relative values formula” April he drew ne&r alone in stressing. Italy is (of Dr. | street northeast. and treated for in- ‘juries on the left side of the face, /and héad and the left shoulder. He | was then taken home. ready to accept the lowest figure in yardstick proposals accepted by other continental powers, but will not te duce hef naval armaments unless they do. It is a known fact that Mussolini draws a sharp distinction between British and American armaments and continental ones. This appears to indicate that Italy thinks the French navy is the only one likely to cause her trouble in the future. Her ald rival Austria, no longer has any sea power and the navy of Jugoslavia is still a negligible quantity. It is certain that Mussolini would not refuse to attend ‘a naval dis- armament conference if there were any reasonable proposals to be, con- sidered by it along the lines outlined above.

PLANRED KILLING, CLAIM Mrs. Irene Haag, 23 years old, who was shot by her estranged husband, Augustus J. Haag, 27 years old, Friday night, was lingering between life and death at Casualty Hospital last night, and Thomas Taylor, 38, who was shot when he intervened on the young woman's behalf, was reported to be showing signs of recovery. The woman's husband is being held at the Ninth Precifict, where he was taken several hours after the shoot- ing, following his arrest at Hyatts¢ ville while making an effort to gain liberty. No charge will be- placed against Haag until the outcome of the condition of the.-two wounded persons’ is determined, it was said. Indications — that g had dwelt on the idea of shooting ‘his wife and, perhaps himself, were revealed yes- terday when authorities, in search- ing the man’s rooms at Hyattsville, discovered a clipping from a local newspaper bearing the pictures of a married couple who mst death when the husband killed his wife and then himself on Pennsylvania avenue ae agnes The case was virtually parallel to the Haags’ The husband attempted | ® reconciliation and pleaded for a | sight of his children.

Vera Cruz. Harbor Stronghold ' Blow Up. || TOWN ALARMED BY ROAR: Mexico City, Aug. 24 (AP.) —A tre- mendous explosion and subsequent raging fire have _ nearly destroyed the historic fortress Of San Juan de Ulua’ in Vera Cruz harbor, according to dis- patches received here. The explosion shook the city Priday | afterzwon and the fire completed the -. destruction during the night. The town was thrown into a state of alarm when the powder stores in the ancient stronghold, which is a mile from the mainland, exploded with the roar and rumble of an earthquake. | No casualties were reported as work- men had left their tasks an hour be- fore the blast occurred. The ye sion ig beli¢yed to have resulted from the terrific heat of the o last few weeks, All: powder stores on the island were oyed. Firemen rushed by boats to extinguish the blaze while crowds “gathered at the waterfront to watch the spectacle. The total loss haf not been deter- mined«but the fortress is said to be completely'ruined. San Juan was the last stronghold of the Spanish follow- ing the Mexican revolution of 1821 when Spain's control of Mexico was overthrown. The Spaniards retired } to the island defenses.and held them for four years after Mexican inde-- peridence was realized. On the island was one of the cruel- est prison dungeons in the Western Hemisphere for more than a century, but jt is. ho longer used. Subterra- nean prison cells, which really are beneath the sea, have been an inter- esting sight for tourists in recent years, It was behind the thick stone walls of the fortress that former Pres- ident Calles conducted secret nego- tiations with Archbishop Ruiz Jy Flores in _.1928 looking toward a set- tlement of the Catholic.

New York, Aug. 24.—Stock selling racketeers in this city have been swindling investors at the rate of $36,000,000 a year, it was estimated yesterday by Assistant Federal At- torney Edward S. Silver.

Within five minutes, however, he was under ar- rest again, this time on request of the Detroit police. They accuse him of a 827,400 stock swindle in that clty.

It's the story, too, of the financial crook who has abandoned the anti- quated methods of his earlier proto- type for the polished manners, the well-groomed ‘attire and the cultural background of the drawing room and counting house. His discarded gold bricks figuratively have paved the path to a loftier and richer goal in capitalizing on the recklesg abandon of an investment-conscious public, to part the sucker from the money in operations which on the surface give an extremely clever appearance of respectability. ° Wall street has become as real and as vital as Main street to the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker. The World War, blamed for most of today’s ill, wins the credit this time for arousing an investing conscious- ness in the Nation for Tom, Dick and Harry through the appeal to fram Once started, the spirit Then came the growing interest in Wall street that for the past several years has wit- nessed the biggest bull market in the Nation's history.

Concurrently the |'bucket shops and the fake invest- paign here yesterday centered on the | | | ment houses became a real menace. Hounded and driven out of happy hunting ground. Start After Big War. Not very long after the war ended Washington saw the birth of a buck- et shop which hag risen to @ com- manding position in the city today with pretentious offices in a large downtown office building, with a per- sonnel that may total 50 to 60 men and women, a clientele that insures a profitable patronage, and a system of operations which has evoked a wave of complaints from victims that leaves small doubt regarding.the re- liability of the concern. The favorable method employed by this pseudo-investment company is representative of that used by its rival in the outside-the-law financial lin cetved a telegram from the Atlanta [ae By way of illustration, assume that the sucker has been persuaded to in- vest a certain sum through the con- cern after having been baited in any one of a half-dozen or more ways ranging from a telephone call to the ‘stranger to .the crafty lure of a high- pressure, olly-tongued salesman. “We are strongly advising our cli- ents to get on U. S. Steel, American Telephone and Telegraph, Anaconda Copper,” the fake brokerage house very likely suggest to the prospect, shrewdly naming stocks known tt least in a general way to him and is- sues whieh have survived the vicissi- tudes of a capricious market with handsome profits to backers. Impressed by the mention of these and similarly well-known stocks, and doubtless flattered by this suggested opportunity to trail in the footteps of captains of industry who have amased weatlh in the same direction the prospect naturally’ sheds the last vestige of suspicion he might have en- tertained regarding the merit of the brokerage house. The mind inevita- bly follows a single track to the con- viction that reputable stocks must necessarily and exclusively be dealt in by reputable firms. How Sucker Is Drawn In. The proper setting has been pro- vided. He has been told that che quoted stocks have experienced a steady rise, that'so-and-so is president or a director of the company repre- sented, that Mr. Vanderbilt, Mr. Rock- efeller or another notable invested early and achieved both fortune and fame, and that it is due for a rise. He has been told that unlike this or that brokerage firm, requiring at times substantially more margin or work- ing amount, he need invest only 10 per cent, for instance, of the amount of the quoted stock as his margin. Any reason will satisfy. Perhaps it’s because their own overhead is net co great as the larger brokerage houses Maybe it’s because the speedy move- ment of their recommended issues wr the character of their clients justify a low margin. It might even be on account of their “unrivaled” connections in “the street.” The lamb is all ready for the slaughter. “Buy me 100 shares,” says the sucker, probably naming an ogut- avings | | ways is the same, almost | gratulates its every State the Capital offered a real |} you so” backslap. standing issue in making his 10 per cent deposit. Behind the scenes the bucket shop thereupon buckets the mone Pang’ + its Own vault makes no move to the requested stock, and in effect bets the unsuspecting sucker against the rise of the stock. If the stock drops, the bucket shop immediately demandg more margin. That procedure is inevitable. It may also suggest for the investor to take his loss and get on another stock, in which case obviously the brokerage house pockets the initial sum. Like its predecessors for years, the bucket shop may resort to the high-harded course of promptly closing out the investor on its own accord if the stock slumps, explaining that the margin was so small that it was forced to protect itself against any 1088. When Stocks Jump Up. If the stock Jumps the bucket shop steers a different course, but the port of success to which it is heading al- unless sufficient pressure is brought to bear by the sucker in the form of threatened or actual legal action, or at least partial or full restitution of the victim's funds. History fails to outstanding success in th for the “trimmed” customers. The “Don't give the sucker coined by the bucket shops. Suppose then that the stock rises land the customer shows a ‘profit. The shrewd, suave bucket shop con- client with a “we told Several lines of attack Joom. ’ “Now that you've taken our advice and made money, we strongly recom- mend that you put back your profit on the same stock and increase your holdings by an additional investment on the same stock,” the client may be told.

The promoters have mapped out their program, and the bucket shop eagerly seizes the opportunity to unload a huge block of the stock. System Used in “Listing.” The bogus brokerage firm touts the new issue with predictions of a big rise. If the customer has ac- quired even the first fundamentals of trading he will ask whether the neW stock is listed, referring to its place on the board in a reputable exchange. .Since the reliable scru- tinize so very closely the activities of any company offering stock before listing the issues, there ig, no likeli- hood that a fake outfit can crash the New York Stock Exchange or the New York Curb Exchange. The bucket sho oP may declare that the stock is listed, but fails to add that it is on a little known and lit- tle regulated exchange or on the' over-the-counter market, whose bids offered and asked on certain issues are published by certain New York newspapers and. publications solely on the daily announcement of the promoters or leaders of the respec- tive companies. There is no regu- lation in this so-called unlisted mar- ket, and the stock may appear one day and go out of print ae the next. Anything can happen in the over-the-counter stocks. Suppose the customer then orders the bucket ¢ —T to buy Combined Tin Can at. 10, for instance. It jumps through manipulation to 15, for example, and then when the time is ripe, the unscruplous promoters shoot it down to 2 or 3. If the bucket shop previously had not bought the stock from the promoters at a price considerably below the amount asked, it may now buy the stock at the cut figure, hand it over to the client, and pocket the enor- mous profit. ‘ The sucker is left holding the proverbial bag with a block of stock of no intrinsic value. It has dis- appeared from the shyster exchange and even from the over-the-counter market listing, if it happened to be sufficiently fortunate to have rated even that prominence before the newspapers publishing the dropped them when the shady com- pany was exposed or when the pro- moters themselves quit furnishing the bids.

But the amendment and the act have been passed, they are the law of the land, and they are s0 freely and variously violated that there exists a sort of friendly and un- spoken, compact not to condemn backsliding in high places. It would not be sporting. Mrs. Willebrandt, using the tre- Cae prontt enough, if there were Week-end Trips, nahin mendous sounding board of the press, has blurted out something that everybody knows but nobody should say. * What she has written will have no more effect than a shadow on a rock. The names of the offenders will not be revealed, so long as they do not make a public display of their offense, and when the inevitable speeches have been made the incident will be closed. Not even the Antisaloon League can complain of the hypocrisy she has described. For it has used that hypoc- risy to gain its political ends, and the country in general does seem to care. It is a curious situation, and if serious men are gravely disturbed by it they have every reason for anx- lety. However, 4he question of duty on imported and manufactured goods, and of man's duty toward imported and manufactured liquor are not by SUPER.

The American cities that recognize this fact and build air- ports to meet it will tap new sources of wealth 60 great that the most opti- mistic are more likely to underesti- mate it than to overestimate it.” “The @ra of the air has come. I take the liberty of suggesting to every State and city of America that, by whatever local means are deemed best, a definite program be adopted looking to the immediate financing and construction of modern, ade- quate airports that meet the require- ments oy: the United Statés Govern- ment to! put them in the ‘tamales. tion of the best, for the time is com- ing when the city without an airport will be in the same plight as the city without an automobile highway or without a railroad station.” CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. took credit for and no doubt was largely instrumental in the State getting $4,000,000 to offset the crop damage caused by the Mediterranean But he has never received any en- couragement from Erown. In fact, at first Brown would not accept the patronage committee which he named, composed of four Republi- cans and three Hoovercrats, the kind of committee that Mr. Hoover said must be named. Brown, instead, set up a committee of his own. where- upon Skipper, just to show Brow his strength, had one of Brewn’s ap- pointees removed as State chairman. Subsequently, when this appointee agreed to play ball with Skipper and quit bowing to Brown, he was re- named, but after again waning in his loyalty he was definitely removed. That is thé way Callaway came to be named State chairman. Brown Tries Discretion. After this show of strength by Skipper, Brown decided he would have to treat Skipper with more re- spect. So, instead of trying to sup- plant Skipper’s patronage committee, Brown«simply insisted that Skipper broaden it to compose 11 members, 7 Republicans and 4 Hoovercrats. Skipper has done this, but Calla- way'’s statement shows the way they feel about it. Just what Brown or Burke has against Skipper is not known. They may think he is too ambitious. There is no question, though, that if Hoover really Wants to hold Florida, Skipper ig the best man to hold it for him. It is significant in connection with the trouble that Skipper is having that a lot of things he obtained for his State in the House tariff bill have been ‘akenh out by the Senate finance committee, particularly the duty on wrapper tobacco. There just seems Robbery Attributed to Sallor, A sailor was blamed yesterday by Lewis L. Young, of 2371 Champlain street northwest, Apartment 101, for the theft of two watches, one valued at $60 and the other at $50, and of $6 incash.

The tensity of conditions in Massa- chusetts has caused:a serious in the Republican ranks. Louls E. Liggett, Republican national commit- teeman from the Bay State, recently made a wet statement which was frowned upon here. Some of the President's friends said that Liggett did not realize the import of the last election, the inference being that the country voted’dry. But the truth of i€ is that Liggett very correétly diag- nosed the meaning of the outcome in his State and that meaning is that usetts. is indisputably wet. Liggett May Complain Loudly.

Action on the report will come in December. & It was itted by the candidates that the campaign cost. more than $2,500,000, but the actual fig- ures are believed to have been closer to $4,000,000. During that struggle, Mackey, as field marshal of the Vare forces, made something .of a ~ reputation, nd Vare rewarded him by making ‘him mayor. Now Harry A. Mackey is engaged in the task of attempting to smash the Vare machine and destroy the rnile of the House of Vare, a reign by three brothers of which William 8. is the last. extending over more than a 3 quarter of a century.

He selected the ‘spot tn 1854 and, after building a | stone house, began turning out a | brand known as Pour Sar Baker. Tradition has it that Baker always kept a barrel and a cup at the en- |trance to the distillery, and that | évery visitor was free to take a swig as he went in or out. There is still whisky stored at the Mount Vernon Distillery, some 23,000 | barrels of it. It is part of the 9,549,- | 071 gallons that are to be used for |medicinal purposes jn the next five | years. But there is none for the visitor as in Baker‘s time. Numerous Federal Agents. * The place is thick with Federal houses and to check on every drop that goes out. Their presence, how- ever, has not always discouraged thieves. Three years ago, a band of | them attempted to gain entrance via a sewer, but an unexpected rise in the tide drove them back. The distillery began to boom after it had been taken over by Henry 8. Hannis about the time of the Civil | War. It was Hannis who branded the product Mount Vernon and made it a | favorite throughout the East. When The*Post representatives vis- ited the plant, they bore with them |a letter from Levi Cooke, well-known | Washington attorney and counsel for » | the American Medicinal Spirits Cor- | poration. This won them a tour of inspection through the plant. “Well, we will start at the begin- | | ning,” superintendent, as he took up the The beginning was | track that leads u | tillery, started by Baker and éxpanded _by HMannis.

Huth pointed out the en- ,cient burr stones with which the @rain is ground, the mash tubs where the grain is mixed with water, the tubs where the yeast is prepared for | the mash, and then the giant copper still in which the distillation actually takes place. This is a monster of a ithing, and found in a moonshine camp would make a prohibition agent ,either shout for joy or collapse from Surprise.

When the peg is running at a normal rate, the output is 75 barrels a day. From the distillery, Huth led the inspection party through the ware- houses and the bottling plant. The thought that came at this stage was said Fred W. Huth, the general | | that the distilling industry was just be- | ginning to adopt modern, labor-sav- | ing machinery and methods when pro- | hibition came along and blighted it. | Modern Filling Machinery. In the bottling works are devices that must have resulted in a tir2- mendous saving of time and labor. There is one that automatically fills the bottles, another—known as a spiral conveyor—that automatically carries the cases and bottles from thé upper floors to the ground floor. In addition, there is a bewildering array of machinery for the pumping ¢nd filtering of the whisky. The warehouse is said to be the finest building: of its kind in the country. It is a lofty, well-vent.l- ated structure with tier upon tier up. both of Mount Vernon and brands sent there by distilleries now de- funcg. To illustrate how thoroughly the Government administers this and other distilleries, it was necessary for Huth to get in touch with one of the Federal agents before the inspec- tion party could get into the ware- house. This individual turned out to be a Washington man—wU. 8. Brock, of 923 Twentieth street, a storekeeper Sauger in the prohfbition buréau. While the warehouse was being in- spected, a truck of the Amefican Ex- press Co., backed up to the door and took on five ‘cases of whisky destined for some pharmacy. Brock caréfully checked. the consignment, and the driver, an automatic strapped to his | leg, mounted Nits seat and drove away. Problem Yo Find New Force. | There still will be a problem con- 'fronting Huth after the mechanics have done their work. It will be that of hiring a force of men to run the plant. Thomas Winan, the veteran dis- tiller, who used to prepare the mash, is now entirely too old to handle the job, and a successor must be found. Whoever he is, the chances are that he either will be related to Winan or some other diatiller, because this was one of those jobs that, like ship piloting, was almost always handed down from father to son. Altogether 38 men must be em- ployed, ranging from the distiller to |the warehouseman, whose job is to | roll the barrels from the distillery to | the warehouse, and, i there to the bottling house.

Silence Rule Revoked. According to “Mr. Calvert, these schools have done their utmost to get away from the institutional at- mosphere. They are run on the lines of the big English public schools which approximate over here to ju- nior colleges and are really of a pri- vate nature. The Borstal schools are composed of houses, each with a house master: A good educational curriculum and plenty of the team type of sports disguises the correc- tional nature of the institutions. “Many other changes have taken | place in the British penal system,” ‘continued Mr. Calvert, “all along | more enlightened lines.

He men- tioned that a beginning’ had been made in this direction by Dr. Ham- blin Smith of Birmingham, England, who was doing interesting work in psychiatry among persons awaiting trial and serving prison sentences. “It is almost impossible at . this stage,” continued Mr. Calvert, “for me to compare the American and EFritish penal systems. I am at pres- ent making a round of the American prisons and can not comment on them now. “American criminal statistics and reports point to the fact that s6en- tences are much severer and many ' more executions are carried out com-‘ pared with England.

An ambrosial, Jovian beard was the surest thing to set a maidenly heart to palpitating, the almost inevitable percursor of con- quest. Anthony Trollope, who let no razor touch his face, had a particu- lar fondness for the whiskers of his favorite characters. In ‘“Barchester Towers” hardly a’ men is without them. There. ts the prebendary. ¥ | whose whiskers were very large and white, “and gave to his face the ap- pearance,of a benevolent, sleepy old lion.” His son Bertie’s beard “had been prepared in the Holy Land and was patriarchal.” He never shaved nd rarely trimmed it. It was glossy and soft, “such that ladies might desire to reel it off and work.it into their pattérns In lieu of- floss silk.” The hero of “The Three. Clerks” had Fi “a pair of black, curly whiskers which almost surroynied his face and had been the delight and wonder of tne maid-servants in his mothef’s house.” Hard Fate of the Beardless. It might be hard to prove that Trollope’s heroes are always 80 be- decked and equally hard to prove that all his odious characters are beardless. but it is significant that one of the oiliest and most unpleasant of the latter, the Rev. Mr. Slope, wore no whiskers and was always punctili- ously shaven. Was it just for tht that one lady of whom ‘he was en- amored laughed his. love to scorn and another boxed his ears? If, then, a beard is a way to wom- an's favor, how should it be worn? On that point Trollope and his con- temporary novelists fail to throw any light. But there is evidence to show that Dundreary weepers-and the full, Solomonic beard were closely tied for favor. Both had to be tended and groomed with infinite care, like the mane and tail of a prize praltion- Bide whiskers were especially difficult. Their proud possessor could not lay his cheek upon his hand without un- doing his whole facial structure. If, however, he let the hair grow all over his face, he could, as a writer of the time informs us, indulge freely “in the joy of playing meditatively with a rich, untrammeled beard”— a joy which the demure maidens of that decorous era perhaps perp ted themselvés to share. The conclusion of the whole matter is that the women of this beardless y | #8¢ dO not know what they are miss- -| ing.

Doing two senators’ work wouldn’t amount to much if their State ‘was Nevada, or New Mex- ico, Or South Carolina, but when it happens to be Pénasylvania with 9,000,000 or 10,000,000 people to look after, the job is almost too much for one Man. And that’s what Dave has been doing ever since George Whar- ton Pepper retired on March 4, 1927, With a tariff bill under considera- tion, the job is a man killer. The newspapers resignéd Melion again yesterday. Some ohe resigns him regularly once every two weeks. Sut Mellon never resigns himself, One of these days, if the résigners keep at it long enough, it will come true But not for a long, long time, Uncie Andy likes his job. R. B. 8. (Copyright, 1929.)

Lott, jr., of Chi- cago, in a long five set tennis match here today in the final of the thir- teenth Newport Casino | invitation tournament. This victbry gave the old master permanent possession. of the Cushman trophy as he won his first two legs in 1926 and 1927.. The scores were 6—2, of, 6—4, 5—7, 6—3. The doubles final was won’ by Lott Calif.. when they won 34 of the 64 games played. They played with Fritz Mercur of Bethlehem, Pa., and his brilliant partner, J. Gilbert Hall, of Orange, N. J. The winning figures were 6—4, 7—9, 4—6, 11—9, 6—2. Tilden made a furious start against Lott, winning the first four games, three by love. The young Davis Cup CONTINUED ON PAGE 20, COLUMN 4.

He won it last year in ridiculously easy fashion, and his victory yesterday ~was little more than a formality, as a powerful crawl stroke carried him to the front quickly and increased his margin of lead steadily as the race progressed. The 18-year-old New Yorker found the.most subborn opposition among his own New York“A. C. teammates, beating the second man to finish, Au- gust Harms, a fellow club member, by 60 yards, with Edward Lee, also of New York A..C., third. The first five men to finish were New York A.

The move did not escape the eagle eye of Policeman Birkight, nearby in a police boat. “Hey! you!” shouted the trate officer, jesturing wildly. “Who do you think you are—a channel swim- mer?” Whereupon Spedden_ re- versed his decision about the fea- sibility of swimming unclad and tread water for five minutes in a struggle to reenter his tights.

Roy Sherid, hard-luck pitcher of the Hug- men, again pitched a complete game, but got nothing but a defeat for his pains. Gene Robertson got both of the hits made off Crowder, a double in the first and a single in the ninth. Crowder gave only one pass, and the Browns furnished him errorless sup- port.

Helen had allowed only two games vo trickle from her racquet in ‘the whole procession of tournament play. Mrs. Chaplin had garnered a gingle game; Peggy Saunders Michell had taken another: the formiidable Molla | Bjorstedt Mallory had fallen before the Wills barrage, 6—0, 6—0. In the miorning came the tre- mendous struggle which sent Helen Jacobs and Betty Nuthall out for the doubles. Mrs. ‘Watson, teaming with Mrs. Michell, finished the iset which the rain of the day before had halted. Twenty-eight games of such tennis as Old timers out at Forest Hills said they had never before seen in women’s doubles and the first match of Mrs. Watson's was over. The officials staged a preliminary to the Wills match to give the Brit- isher more time to rest. But 28 games are tiring, even to a right arm which had battled Helen Jacobs to two defeats in three weeks. Yet Mrs. Watson is game. This, then, is the woman Helen Wills faces in the finals of the cham- pionship.

This talent undoubtedly saves him many times when he would otherwise be “out, of luck” in throw- ing long range blows at an opponent. Chocolate, because of his more or- thodox style, is the more accurate with his punches. He can place them better than Singer. Where Al will crash through a guard by sheer force of his punch, Chocolate will dart through a slight opening without en- countering any resistance. The result is that the Havana Kid at times can make a lighter blow count more heavily than Singer's. heavier punch, merely because the later does en- counter some obstacle on the way to its goal. And so, with Chocolate’s accuracy to offset Singer’s greater power, and with both men about equal in speed, the red board. Where Did He Come From? Where did he come from?

In the second game Burleigh Grimes made his first start since his injury at the Polo Grounds five weeks ago. The defeat was his third of the season against sixteen victories.

Vance is being traded in the col- umns of the newspapers because he is drawing a salary of $25,000 this season and isn’t earning it. Laden with rheumatism and sundry other miseries, the mighty strikeout aspe- cialist, instead of belng the ace of the Brooklyn pitching staff, has been | just a finger trying to get by. A few months ago Vance was gen- erally acknowledged the greatest pitcher in the game. At present stock in Vance preferred has slumped well below its par value. Robins Can Not Aord To Lose Mound Strength. One needn't be a financial wizard to realize that it’s a poor time to sell. Of course, if Prof. Wilbert Rob- inson and the club's board of direc- tors become convinced that Vance is completely through, it’s another matter. It would also be another matter if the crying need of the Brooklyn club for next season were not pitchers. The present Robins have a fair enough batting attack; also a fair enough in- field. Next season the infield should be considerably improved when Jake Flowers regains his full health and strength.

Grady Adkins pitched the last inning for the Sox. It was Walberg’s seven- teenth victory of the season. Al Simmons returned to the game after a lay-off and got three hits.

A slim miss from New York City and a tall blonde boy from /Honolulu skimmed over Fleshhacker | Pool today to establish two world records in the national A. A. U. swimming championships. To little Eleanore Holm, of the New York Women’s Swimming As- sociation went the honor of setting a new time in the 110-yard back stroke for women. She led an im- | posing field to the finish in the time |of 1 minute 221-5 seconds to crack | the old mark of 1 #@iinute 301-5 sec- |onds.

(CURLEY) BYRD, whose - main position at the Univer- sity of Maryland is assist- ant to the president, will begin his eighteenth year as a leading factor in athletics at the College Park in- stitution this fall. Byrd, who also is athletic director And head football coach, is the sec- ond oldest man in the point of serv- lice connected with sports at an in- stitution in the Southern Conference organization. Dan McGugin, who has been at Vanderbilt some 30-odd years, is dean of the athletic leaders in the Dixie group. It was in the fall of 1912 that Byrd, who was graduated from the Old Line institution in the class of 1908, went back there to teach English and to coach athletic teams. He has gradu- ally risen in all lines to the position he now occupies as an executive and /} athletic leader. At one time .or an- other he has coached all the athletic teams at Maryland. except lacrosse, and at one stage of his busy career served as head coach of the football, track, baseball and basket ball squads in addition to his other tasks, **Steale’” Time to Coach Football Team. However, in the past five years his duties in his executive position at the university have demanded s0 much of his time that he has been forced to give up all coaching except football. He really has no time to handle the gridmen, but he is so fond of the game that he has made it his one “hobby” and recreation and simply “steals” enough time each fall to keep Maryland firmly en- trenched on the football map. Byrd has been responsible for the high standards that athletics at Maryland have reached and, inci- dentally, has been the one biggest factor in the growth and advance- ment of the university. His ‘“mix- ture of jobs,” executive and athletic, doubtless make him unique in the college life of the country. Byrd and Maryland Almost Synonyméus. Curley Byrd and the University of Maryland are almost synonymous. Byrd is a native Marylander and. except for a very short period to dab- ble in professional baseball, he has not Hived away from his State and the City of Washington. -He was born in Crisfield, Md., a little more than 40 years ago, but has not been back there as a resident since he matri- culated at the College Park school. During the time between his gradu- ation from the Old Line institution and his return there he made his foray in professional baseball ranks and coached at Western High School of Washington, leaving the latter when he was called back to College Park. Byrd Backs Morris as Leading Old Liner. If you asked Byrd who was the best all-around athlete in the his- tory of College Park athletics, he would tell you William G. (Country) Morris, ‘13, closely followed by Brooks (Untz) Brewer, ‘20, and Myron F. (Mike) Stevens, ‘28. But if you asked some of the Old Liners who have been in touch with affairs at College Park for the past 25 years, they doubtless would say H, C. (Curley) Byrd, ‘08. Byrd doubtless was the best quar- ter back Maryland ever had, he still holds the school record for the 100- yard dash of 10 seconds and is jointly holder of the “50” -at 5 and 2-5 sec- onds. He also ran the 220 in ap- proved style. In addition, with the probable exception of Vic Keen, ‘22, he was about the best ball player ever developed at Maryland. He was mak- ing good as a hurler in the Pacific Coast League when he decided pro- fessional ball would not suit him as a career and he hurriedly beat [it back East. His first stop on return- ing was College Park, where he spent several days before going to work in Washington, but it was three years later that he was called back to the Old Line school to stay. Arlington All-Stars Bow to Mills Club Special to The Washington Post. Charlottesville, Va., Aug. 24.—The Arlington All-Stars, coached by Charlie Fenwick, of the Maryland were de- feated here this afternoon by the §&, & R. Silk Mills Nine in a fast game, all the runs being earned. The score was 4 to l. The visitors registered their lone tally in the sixth on singles by For- est, Demorest and Berger and Mc- Quinn's double. Haggard scored first for the locals with a homer in the second inning. The same player drew a pass in the fourth, stole second, and counted on Poss’ triple. V. Breen’s double sent Poss home. With two down in the _ eighth. Haggard singled, again stole second and tallied on Crowe's single. ALEXANDRIA SPORTS Special to The Washington Post. Alexandria, Va., Auk. 24—Two baseball games, both of particular in- terest, will be presented the local fans tomorrow. The first is that be- tween the St. Mary's Celtics and the Naval Hospital Team, of Washington, on Baggett’s Field, at 3 o'clock. The Naval Hospital had the better of the last argument between the two teams, and Manager Brownie Lemeric will place the strongest possible team in the field tomorrow to avenge the pre- vious defeat if possible. Leon Riley, ace of the local pitchers, will probably be Lemeric’s mound selection, and of the Gobs, will toe the mound for that aggregation of ball players. The last contest wound up wiht a score of 4-3 in favor of the Sailors, who hit Hamilton, who pitched for the Celtics, freely and earned the victory. The first game for the amateur title of Alexandria, to decide which team will meet the Celtics later, will be played on Haydon Field at 3 o'clock between the Coumbia Firemgn and Athletic Club. “Two Bucks" Strudder is slated to pitch for the Columbia, while “Speedboy” Jones will do the hurling for the Virginians. Umpires Ray Peverill and Billy Wood will handle the in- dicators. Jeff Williams’ Del Ray A. C. will meet the Washington Red Sox at “dward Duncan Field, Potomac, at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. This is one of the feature attractions of the year for the Del Rayans, and will no doubt attract a large crowd. “ALEX” TIES RECORD. Grover Cleveland Alexander ‘ied Christy Mathewson’s record of 372 victories against the Brooklyn Rodins recently. Alex is far behind Cy Young’s mark of 511, however.

NIVERSITY, Va., Aug 24.—For the first time in six years a new head coach of football will greet the University of Virginia squad when it reports on Monday, September 2, to begin training for the fall campaign. Earl C. Abell, who was head coach at Colgate University last season, has succeeded Earle E. Neale, who di- rected the Cavaliers on the gridiron from 1923 through 1928. Coach Abell will come down to the university next week in order to be on hand when the first of his charges arrive. Ten of those who won the “V" last season, six linemen and four backs, will form the nucleus of the °29 var- sity. James G. Driver, director of athletics, has invited some 30 others to report for the preliminary prac- tice period. Capt. Johnny Sloan, of Richmond, Va., quarter back; Hunter Faui- coner, of Charlottesville, Va.; Augus- tas Kaminer, of Gadsden, S. C., and Albert Lewy, of Cleveland, Ohio, are the four veterans who will play be- hind the line. Many Linemen Have Won Letters. George Taylor, of Winston-Salem, N. C., center; Richard Day, of Rich- mond, Va. guard; Hunter Movt- ley, of Madison, Va., tackle; with Howard Turner, of East Falls Church, Va.; Harry Klippin, of the University; William E. Byrd, jr., of Baltimore, Md., and William Paxton, of Mont- clair, N. J., are the linemen who won letters last fall. In- addition there will be Garland Daniel, of Greensboro, N. C., who won his “V”" in the line two seasons 420, but who was prevented from play- ing last fall by an early injury. It is upon this foundation ‘of eleven men that Coach Abell will have to build his team. For back field strength Coach Abell will be-able to draw upon sore good men who served as varsity re- serves last fall, among them William A. Moncure, of Alexandria, Va.; Al- honso Smith, jr., of the university; oodruff Weaver, of Washington, D. C., and Harry H. Haden of Palmyra, a. He will have even more reserve strength for the line. Lawrence Whalen, of Boston, Mass.; Churchill Dunn, of Petersburg, Va.; Louis Mackall, jr., of Washington, D. C.; William C. Ivey of Lynchburg, Va.; Jordan A Pugh, of Norfolk, Va., and William Rosenberger, of Lynchburg, Va.. will be available for guard and tackle positions. John C. Wyley, of Savannah, Ga., was substitute cen- ter. For reserve ends he will have Alfred B. McEwen, of Richmond, Va.. and Norwood B. Orrick, of Washing- ton, D. C. 17 Sephomores to Train With Squad. Seventeen men who were first year students last season have been in- vited back to train with the varsity. This list includes men who won :irst year numerals and a few,who were ineligible for the freshman eleven. Carl T. Goldenberg, of Lynchburg, Va.: William T. Thomas, of Rich- mond, Va.; Herbert Bryant, of Alox- andria, Va.; John C. Gravatt, of Black- stone, Va., and Douglas G. Meyers, cf Petersburg. Va., and William Seddon Nelson, of Winchester, Va., will be among the new backs. Linemen from the freshman squad will be Fenton A. Gentry, of St. Petersburg, Fla, center; William J. DeButts. of the university; Allan Mc- Cullough, of Ocena, Va., and Kenneth W. Robinson, of Norfolk, Va., guards; Gordon B. Fuller. of New York Clcy. and William R. Williams, of Rith- lands, Va., tackles, and John L. Pey- ton, of Staunton, Va., end. Four linemen who were ineligible for the 1928 freshman team but who can play on the varsity are Robert s. Kimball, jr.. of Ipswich, Mass.; Floyd Lankford, of Baltimore; Frank P. Sip- piey, of Princeton, N, J., and John Von Schiegell, of Baltimore. : With a new head coach and a squad of men who made no great record last fall Virginia's prospects for the com- ing gridiron campaign are not the brightest. For this reason the pre- liminary training will be intensive from the start. The 1929 schedule follows: Septem- ber 28, Randolph-Macon ot home; Oc- tober 5, Sduth Carolina in Columbia, 8. C.; 12, Swarthmore at home; 19, Virginia Mifftary Institute at home; 28, St. John's at home.

ELEVEN Stumpp, in Condition, Is Seen as Star of Mountaineers. $ Special to The Washington Post. IRGANTOWN, W. Va., Aug. 24. With the opening-of the West Virginia University football training camp at Jackson Mill just one week hence, there has been an ever increasing amount of discus- sion of the probable strength of. the 1929 Mountaineer grid machine. “What are we going to have this year?” is all that is mecessary to start any dyed-in-the-wool football fan here on an interminable conversa- tion. The sports editors of West Virginia papers with a few notable exceptions, feel that the Mountaineers are due for a “lean” year in comparison with the great 1928 season, in which vic- tories were won from Wesleyan, Has- kell Indians, Pitt, Washington and Lee, Oklahoma A. and M., Fordham, Lafayette and Washington and Jef- ferson, while games were lost to Davis-Elkins and Georgetown. However, the West Virginia ath- letic authorities are not as pessimis- tic as many of the fans profess to be. It is true that the loss of Walter Brewster, one of the best tackles evvr produced here; “Swede” Hagberg, whose. center play featured every game; Lewis “Oogie” Meisel, a fine steady guard; Capt. Clarence Keefer, plunging full back; Eddie Vacheresse, a splendid end; “Big Sleepy” Glenn, the hard running “Cassie” Ryan, and the veteran tackle “Woozie” Lewis, will be missed. Nevertheless, there are several compensating factors which many have overlooked. Stumpp Expected To Star. Eddie Stumpp, who proved to be one of the greatest sophomore “finds” in college football last season, was hurt in mid-October, and was never available during the remainder of the year. Stumpp is apparently as good as ever, and if this brilliant field general, forward passer, and ground gainer de luxe, is able to start in where he left off last October, the Mountaineers will unquestionably be better offemsively than they were during the latter part of the 1928 season. Eddie Bartrug, another sophomore, whose punting was the best in the East last year, and who turned in some brilliant ball toting, should be better with a year of ex- perience for background. Gene Joseph, a hefty sophomore end, who filled in for Eddie Vache- resse in. nearly every game last sea- son, should leave little to be desired at the left terminal position, while Clint Carrico, veteran pivot man, who played nearly as much as Hag- berg, is a first-class center. Nixon Slated for Regular Job. George “Butch” Nixon, slated for a regular tackle berth last September at training camp until an attack of typhoid fever at Jacksons Mill elimin- ated him’ from competition, is on hand. Nixon, 200-pound veteran, should “go” at the right tackle post this year. Julian Scott, regular 1928 left tackle, until injuries laid him low in midseason, is ready for his final season of intercollegiate com- petition. Meisel’s place at left guard will be hard to fill, but there is an unusually large number of high class linemen available, and Coach Rod- gers will surely be able to plug this hole. Nelson Lang, at right end, and Capt.-elect “Little Sleepy” Glenn, at quarter back, will start their third year as regulars, and both will be out to make this their best season. Perhaps the hardest job which faces Coach Rodgers will be that of re- placing Capt. Keefer at full back. Keefer finished his grid career by turning in his greatest season. The Mountaineer veteran consistently plunged every opponent line, and was fortunate in escaping injuries through the hard fought ten-game schedule. Varney Seen as Full Back. To date, the only outstanding can- didates for the full back post are Louis Varney, 176-pound junior, and Francis “Tarzan” Glenn, 178-pound senior, although George Haddock, weighing 180 pounds, ard Vental Wag- goner, 175 pounds, sophomores, may help out some. Varney showed flashes of fine full back play last year, and is a splendid forward passer. If Varney, Glenn, Haddock or Waggoner can come through at full back, the Moun- taineers should be “set” for a real year again. Coach Rodgers might solve the line- plunging problem by shifting Capt. “Little Sleepy” Glenn t6 full back. In that event “Bus” LaRue might play the quarter back position and head the interference. There is also the possibility that LaRue might come through at full -back, for he is Associated Press Photo.

Grid Training Is Due to Start Saturday Squad to Gather at Fermingdale, Long Island, for 3 Weeks of Intensive Drills; Squad Riddled by Graduations. EW YORK, Aug. 24.—Fresh from summer jobs in locations that ranged all the way from insane asylums to lakeside camps, New York University’s gridiron hopefuls will gather on August 31 at Fermingdale, Long Island, for three weeks of in- tensive precampaign drill. At the start of the summer Head Coach Chick Meehan urged the play- ers—veterans as well as newcomers— to get muscle-developing jobs during the vacation period. Most of the squad has followed his advice, and in following it have engaged in a va- riety of occupations. The most unusual work was done by two who are expected to be stars of the 1929 eleven, Beryl Follet, back, and Jerry Nemecek, end. Both are employed as attendants in the insane asylum at Kings Park, Long Island. Follett and Nemecek say they’ve done plenty of brawn-building restraining the mentally incompetent at the State institution. Capt. Leonard Grant, tackle; Charles Marshall, end; Victor Connor and Herman La Mark, back field candi- dates: Mike Firstenber, end Sol Beres, line candidates, and Harry Schneider, center, are all councilors at summer camps in New England. Brown Has Been Saving Lives In New England. | Fred Brown, back, is a lifeguard at a New England resort. John “Jinx” O’Herin, stellar quarter back, has been employed.in an office in New York. The midget back, H. Dudley Hormel, is employed as a playground director, as is George Sargisson,; regular guard. Four of Meehan’s prides are toting ice around their home towns—aAl Gaudet, George Chalmers, Ernest Concannon, and Hugh Greenblatt, all of whom are coming up from the freshman ranks. Followers of the Violet are helping : put the regulars and would-be regu- lars in the best possible physical con- dition—for they'll need to be in trim for the season that is to come. It is unquestionably the most difficult one New York University has ever faced. Ten games are On the program, seven of them definitely in the “ma- jor” category. These include Mis- sour!, Carnegie Tech, Butler, Georgia, Georgetown, Fordham and Penn State. The minor games are with Vermont, West Virginia, Wesleyan and Rutgers. And Chick Meehan may have more “big” games than he expects on his hands, for it is quite possible that West Virginia Wesleyan and Rutgers may send teams to Nev York that will be as powerful as some of the better known seven. Team Riddled by Graduation Of Best Men. Chick Meehan starts preparation for this arduous campaign with a team riddled by graduation and minus the services of Capt. Alfred Lassman, a line-cracker of no little ability. and a fine defensive player as well, Mountaineers Are Confident. Most certainly, there is a feeling of greater confidence among the Mountaineer gridders than there was at this time last year, for at that time the squad morale was at low ebb due to the preceding season, when only two victories had been re . and those two triumphs were against two minor opponents, Wesleyan and Davis-Elkins. Y However, the preseason dope means little, and the strength of the West Virginia Eleven will not be known probably until a game or o has been played. ‘ iant tackle; Kenneth .Strong, All- merican triple-threat half back; Ar- thur Roberts, diminutive ball-carrier of the past three seasons; Ollie Saten- stein and E. Horace Weiner, iinesmen; Robert Barrabee, all-Eastern end; Edwin Hill, star defensive back and line plunger; Frank Cesari, Miquel Blis, Howard Pearlman, Alfred. Hig- gins and William Wexler, linesmen; and Arthur Norton, Edward Buckley, Earl Ashton and Michael’ Riordan, backs. The N. Y. U. mentor has three weeks at Farmingdale on the New York Agricultural College field in which to unearth replacement ma- terial. He expects to find most of it in the ranks of the freshman eleven, which went undefeated last season. The squad will return to University Heights from the training camp:’on September 23, with the season open- ing at Ohio Pield the following Satur- day, September 28, against Vermont. The New England outfit is a new- comer to the New York University schedule, having usually confined its activities in New York City to playing Columbia. Another Ohio Field tune- up game follows on October 5, with West Virginia Wesleyan. “Battle of Bronx” Should Draw Record Crowd. Then comes the contest which will probably attract the biggest crowd of the year—that with Fordham, the annual battle of the Bronx. With Maj. Frank Cavanaugh having an abundance of good material with which to fashion the Maroon eleven, the Columbus Day tussle promises to be the best of those in the East dur- ing the early part of the season. Fordham has not won from the Violet since Meehan came to N. Y. U. Penn State visits the metropolis for its meeting with the Violet October 19. The teams met and tied, 13 to 13, in 1927 at State College, so the two will continue from where they left off to determine which is the better. ctober 23 brings Butler College, of Indianapolis, to the Yankee Stadium. Butler is said to have an exceptionally good back field. Georgetown, the victor in its meeting with N.Y. U. last season, will follow on November 2. Lou Little’s eleven won from Mee- han’s troupe by 7 to 2 in a mem- orable engagement on a mud-soaked gridiron. Novemebr 2 has been desig- nated as homecoming day at New York University. pipe. Georgia and Missouri to Invade New York. The University of Georgia and Uni- versity of Missouri invade New York City on the following two Saturdays. This is the Violet’s first meeting with the Athens outfit. Last season the Hall-of Fame team defeated Missouri, 27 to 6. Rutgers, never a set-up for any eleven, although beaten by one-sided scores in the last three meetings with N. Y¥. U., will be the ninth opponent. Last season’s score was 48 to 0.

Students of the intimate details of his life recall that on one of the few occasions he went gunning for game his entire bag consisted of his favorite dog. His gréat adversary, the Duke of Wellington, was no better. Lady Shelley, in her memoirs, describing a day’s hunting with him, says: “The hero of Waterloo was a very wild shot.

The Takoma Tigers and Silver Spring Giants, both two-game win- ners last week, and therefore tied for the league leadership, will battle it out for top honors in what could be called the feature attraction of the day's card. The Friendships, an- other two-game winner last week, and tied for the leadership with the Tigers and Giants, play the Kensing- ton Firemen while the Roékville and Kensington National Guards play each other both in the effort to get in the win column because of double losses last week. As mentioned above the Tigers-Giants games will be played on the Silver Spring diamond, the Friendship - Kensington Firemen clashes on the Wheaton diamond and the Rockville-Guard tilts on the Rockville diamond.

HE second annual tournament for the left-handed golf cham- pionship of the District of Co- ’ 1undia will be played on the course ‘ of the Indian Spring Club on Friday. September 6. The event carries the unpronounceable title of Namandj! Nindj, which, in the language of the Chippewa Tribe of Indians, means “left-handed.” Lester A. Reeves, of the Indian Spring Club, who is a southpaw, orig- inated this competition last year and provided a handsome trophy-—sur- mounted, by the way, by the figure of a right-handed goifer—and a replica of the cup is annually pre- - sented to the winger. Last year the event was won by Sam Rice, of the Washington Baseball Club, and it is expected that he will defend his title. Thirty-six holes, medal play, will be the competition, and the runner- up will also receive a prize. Entries will close at 6 p. m. on Tuesday, ; “September 3.

By JAMES EW YORK, Aug. 24 (N.Y.W.N. N S.).—At first blush it would seem that a golfer to whom the game is supposed to be merely a recreation and a.pastime must be pretty fond of it when he will travel thousands of miles and spend a month’s time and hundreds of dollars for the privilege of trailing Bobby Jones in a’ national amateur chem- pionship. But it appears that at least several of the more prominent amateurs will combine business with pleasure at the coming tournament at Pebble Beach, Calif. Reports fram California have it that the Pebble Beach course is part of a 20-mile-long real estate develop- ment now being exploited by a private firm. In addition to some male amateurs participating in the tournament, Miss Glenna Collett, holder of the women’s national title, and Miss Marion Hollins, her pre- decessor, will assist the company in peddling parcels of the huge property to the assembled multitude, it is said. Both Misses Collett and Hol- lins have had considerable experience in real estate exploitations, Miss Col- lett at Pinehurst and Miss Hollins on Long Island. Prices Go Up With New Type Of Revenue Planned. If other advices from California are correct, the sales people had better get to their prospects early. Hotels in Del Monte, the only sizable haven for visitors within 125 miles of Pebble Beach, are said to be in- sisting upon eight-day reservations, at prices fully commensurate with the importance of the occasion. In addition to the usual sources of revenue, officials in charge of the meet are said to be planning to tap a couple of new ones. Customers will be soaked $1 for programs and 50 cents for the privilege of driving an automobile within the huge estate, it is reported. Well, of course, there is no law compeling any one to at- tend. French Heels to Be Tabooed On Course. But no matter how willing she— or he, for that matter—is mulcted, no spectator wearing French heéls will be allowed on the course. Applicants for admission who can not obtain sport shoes will either to plod around the course shoeless or stay off. Pebble Beach officials are determined not to per- mit their valuable golfing real estate to be pock-marked by the are hundreds, usually traveling in pairs, at big tournaments, despite prohibition of them.

The decline of- tobacco chewing -among baseball players, by the way, has been almost as sharp as that im base stealing. I recall one club all the members of which save one chewed tobacco. The exception twd no teeth. As Babe Ruth does woday, he went in for snuff. Art Shires, first baseman of the Chicago White Sox, packs the biggest chew of tobacco of any of the present-day ‘crop. He says the habit helps keep \him out of trouble my making his ‘comments on the umpiring indis- tinct. Heathcote, of Cubs, Handy Man to Have Around. Cliff Heathcote, the Cubs’ spare outfielder, seldom gets a tumble, but he is a very handy man to have around. The fact that he has lasted eleven years.in the big show al- though never quite winning 4 regular berth proves that others think so, too. Heathcote can hit ‘and field and is one of the fastest 'men in the league despite his years |of service. However, he seems doom- ed to finish his career as a substi- tute. He has about as much chance of breaking Wilson-Cuyler outfield as he has of being the next Lord Mayor of Cork. 'Van Ryn, Allison “Sick and Tired” of Tennis. The unexpected defeat of Johnny Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison at the hands of Phil Neer and Bruce Barnes at Newport does not mean that the United States Davis Cup doubles team has cracked. Save for a couple of practice sessions at Longwood last week, Van Ryn and Allison have not had a racquet in their hands since the Davis Cup matches. As Van Ryn expressed it on their return from Paris, both he, and Allison were “sick and tired of tennis” and they |'repaired at once to Maine for a com- | plete rest. They wil] be heard from a little later at Forest Hills. Neer and Barnes wi'l be, too, but not in the final stages of the national doubles championship. Se Scribe Ungallant in Calling Woman Star “Aged Veteran.” In a dispatch from the Forest Hills front one of the war correspon- dents, with more temerity than gal- |lantry, refers to a participant in the ‘national women’s championship play |as “the aged veteran.” If “the aged veteran”’ in question should take it into her head to bounce a racquet ‘off his bean he might change his mind about her superannuation. | There's power in tans right arm ye:, | brother.

The 127 entries already paired for the 18-hole qualifying round include Mrs. Leona Pressler, of Los Angeles, winner last year and the year before: Mrs. O. S.

The 32 survivors will begin match play at eighteen holes Tuesday, with one round being held each day until the 36-hole final Saturday. A score of 92 is expected to be good enough to qualify, with a 76 or 77 probably showing the way. A good indication was furnished yesterday when Mrs. Gregg Lifur, of Los Ange- les, toured the course in 79 strokes, three under woman's par. Her first nine was 36.

After slipping several times he chang- ed to spiked shoes and when these failed to keep him upright he re- moved them and played in his socks until the sun dried the court. The veterans famous “cannon ball” service became erratic tn the second set and Lott broke through his serv- ice twice. Several times during this set Tilden was displeased by unfav- orable decisions made by linesmen and he delayed the play to chide with them. Before the final set started the ref- eree called on the crowd, overwhelm- ingly for Lott, to refrain from ap- plause. Tilden. served a love in the first game and Lott held the second. During this game many of the crowd disregarded the referee's request and applauded Lott. Tilden turned and glared at the stands for almost a minute. This gesture of displeasure so annoyed a few of the spectators that they hissed the former world’s champion when he next found fault with a linesman’s decision. The hiss- ing, probably the first ever heard in the historic and exclusive casino, was quickly. stopped by the protests of the majority. Hall played a remarkable steady game during the afternoon doubles match maintaining his services on each of his performances. Mercur was broken six times during the 64 games, Doeg four times and Lott once. During the Tilden-Lott match the governors of the Newport Casino Lawn Tennis Association, rewarded 73-year-old Tom Petitt, who served as superintendent of the courts fifty- three years, by presenting him with a silver plate and a purse of $1,000. WINS. 6TH TITLE Beats Mis. Watson in Stubborn Battle by 6—4 and 6—2. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15, misses the chalk mark, loses one. Forty—fifteen. The gallery begins to believe this may not be a parade after all. They are sure of it as the game goes to the British woman. The Wills service starts. Only one point for the freckled-faced English visttor as this game ends. The next is not so easy. The score runs to deuce before Helen steams one in to force a net, taking tie game. Things look more natura) now. Helen starts her second service, takes a point with a crashing cannon- ball service. Misses the base line, misses it again, smashes in another of. the terrific services which have scalded the hearts of her opponents all week. She deuces it. But Mrs. Watson is working the forehand of hers, sliding them into Miss Wills’ left corner, the corner 60 vulnerable in Miss Jacobs’ defense. Mrs. Watson takes add, nets a drive to make it deuce again, shoots one down the sideline. Helen bats it out of the court. The woman they called a setup is playing Helen stroke for stroke. Add again for the re- ceiver. Then a netted return and the game goes again to deuce. Helen reaches into her pocket for another cannon ball, takes add but another long rally ends with Mrs. Watson out driving Helen to deuce it again, passes her to take the add, forces her to smash one outside, and the games are two- all. Then comes a quick game with the umpire announcing for the first time in this tournament that an ordinary numan being stands one game up on Helen Wills. Helen takes time out to put on the spiked shoes. Mrs. Watson Shows Effect of Morning Struggle. She goes after the next, opening up with a service ace, runs it up to 40 love. But the English woman keeps stroking them back at her, brings the game to deuce, lets ‘one trickle for her bat. nets one and her lead is gone. The next game is a succession of Wills’ bigger and better shots and the score is love 40 and game as Mrs. Watson ‘begins to show the oftert of the morning struggle. The next is equally swift, with Mrs. Watson collecting a single -point. The ninth game is different. Mrs. Watson, who has been plunking those forehands of hers out of pbounds. gives the gallery hysterics in this frame. In one of the longest rallies seen in the whole tournament Mrs. Watson succeeds in forcing Helen to yield a third game. Helen replies with a: love game to end the set. Two short games for Miss Wills and it looks as though the British woman is through. She is not, for five times this game goes to deuce as the arm with the gold brace- let strokes the best that Miss Wills can offer back and back for points. And Mrs. Watson has a game. Helen gets going again, increasing her pace as Mrs. Watson tires. Four games with only twelve points for Mrs. Wat- son. The score is now 5—1l. The gallery. is cheering the courageous Britisher. ‘With such a lead, they can afford to and still be patriotic. Miss Wills Suddenly Shows Flash Of Best Form. Mrs, Watson serves one. The um- pire calls it a fault. Helen is chival- rous, says it’s a let ball. Her chivalry ends with that. Three points in a row and Mrs. Watson faces match point. . And then comes some tennis thé 8,000 in the stands will not forget for a couple Of moons. Her back. to. the wall, facing the mistress of the tennis world, Phoebe Watson fights. And a startled gallery sees the score climb through three set points to deuce, sees the brace- leted arm swing rhythmically, giving ‘Helen as good as she sends and Helen chasing them across the base line. Helen takes the ad. She can’t hold it. And another set point goes beg- ging as Mrs. Watson takes the game. Then Helen is serving again. And it’s 40 and 15, but Mrs. Watson is not through even yet. A placement sends the score to 40-50, then a netted drive and it’s all over. They stand for their photographs, and Helen hugs a couple of cups, the Memento Cup, the challenge cup, hers to keep after three successive wins. But the gallery is cheering the tall English woman who some people had called a set-up. Mrs. Watson, Mrs. Michell Win Doubles Title. Another breathing space. And then Mrs. Watson is on the court again with Mrs. Michell, facing Mrs. Covell and Mrs. Shepherd-Barron, the conqueror of Miss Cross and Mrs. Harper in Friday's grand three-set match. They lose their first set, as Mrs. Covell shows that excellent service of hers, with the score of 2—6, the next comes to the Wimbledon winners at 6—3. . But the last is not so easy. Mrs. Covell and Mrs. Shepherd-Barron are leading at 4—2 before this set is pulled out of the fire and Mrs. Shep- herd-Barron is bobbling one to the marquee to end the set, match and championship at 6—4 for Mrs, Wat- son and Mrs. Michell. Phoebe Watson has played 80 games of championship tennis since Forest Hiils. So once more those who like to wax international have powder for their oratorical guns. America holds her own in the singles. England walks away with the doubles. And everything is cricket, No Upsets Recorded In Suburban Tennis .. Good tennis featured the opening matches of the annual Suburban League championship tournament yesterday on the Bureau of Standards Courts. No outstanding upsets marked. the day’s play. Bob Burwell and Joe Rutley flashed consistent form to’ advance to the third round of singles play. Dean Judd also reached the third round by a comparatively easy victory over Wright.

Washington will meet the Philadelphia’ team next month. Today’s Baltimore-Washington matches comprise the first of two meetings between the ranking stars of the two cities. Next Sunday the rivals from the Maryland metropolis and the Capital City will clash in their annual engagements on the Po- tomac Park courts. Ten singles and five doubles matches are slated that day. Trials will be held this week to se- lect the members of the Washington team ta compete in these matches. The local Public Parks Association officers and members of the execi- tive committee will name the indi- vidual players and doubles teams. This committee is composed of Mor-, timer Rathgeber, Robert S. Newby, Karl C. Baetzner, Wiliiam Buchanan and F. M. Silva.

One week from tomorrow a remarkably strong field of noted golfers will begin their long tramp over the Pebble Beach course in California in the effort to qualify for match play in the national ama- teur championship. There will be 162 starters but. only 32 will be eligible. for match play. Chandler Ean, former national. champion, who has supervised the remodeling of the Peb- ble Beach ‘course, predicts that 144 or 145 will win the medal in: the quali- fying round and that the highest | score to qualify will be 158. Will Ro Tyre Jones, jr., win the title lon the fifth time? Every golfer knows that despite the aggregation of talent it will be Jones against the field. The chances ’ are, of course, that again the crown of glory will adofn his noble brow but there is just enough uncertainty as to the outcome to make the situa- tion interesting. First of all, there is the menace of the two 1i18-hole rounds with which the match play begins. Anything may happen in these two rounds and no one knows this better than Jones himself. There ve been three champion- ship eve since the 18-hole system was inawigurated. Survived First Round By 1 Up Seore. At Baltusrol. Jones, playing against Dick Jones, survived the first round by the narrow margin-of 1 up; at Minnekahda, with Maurice McCarthy as his opponent, he was 1 down at the fifteenth tee and although he finally won, he was on the edge of defeat uritil McCarthy fal- tered on the last four holes; and at Braeburn last year he was nearly eliminated by Bob -Gorton, coming through by a victory on the nine- teenth green. If he crosses the rubi- con of these 18-hole matches he ought to heave contparatively easy sailing for in 36-hole conte“s he is prac- tically invincible. The Pebble Beach event will be a battle of the giants. There will he four golfers. holding the amateur titles of as many nations—Robert T. Jones, United States; Cyril Tolley, England; Ross. Somerville, Canada, afid Jack Westland, France. Then there wil be six former national champions—William .C. Fownes, jr., Charles Evans, jr., Jesse Guilford, Francis Oulmet, George Von Elm and H. Chandler Egan. Seven State; champions will also.compete, the list including ‘John F. Neville, five times champion of California; C.D. “Chuck” Hunter, Washington; Rudolph 8. Juran, Minnesota; W. 8S. Critchlow, Oklahoma; John S. Grimes, Mary- land; Samuel Perry, Alabama, Edwin A. McClure, Louisiana. The latter, by the way, is a 16-year-old lad whose father bet him a trip to California~that he would not win the State title. With this dangling before his eyes he set a low mark in his qualifying and feated Fred Lamprecht, former mat tional intercollegiate champion, in the final round. Tournament in West To Be Success. The pessimists who predifted that a golf tournament held on the edge of the Pacjfic Ocean would be lack- ing in interest becausce of its re- moteness from the East have proven themselves to be sad de ap There never has been a national champion- ship so replete with color as is prom- ised in the Pebble Beach event, It could not. be otherwise when the field imcludes FPrancis Brown, of Honolulu, who is Said to be the long- est driver in the world; Phillips Fin- lay, renowned for his distance from the tee; Maurice McLoughlin, former Rational tennis champion and now a 3 bandicap golfer; Art “Tilly” Shafer, former outfielder for the Giants, who reeled off two championship rounds for a total of 151 to tie for second place in the $10,000 Los Angeles i e7 pene and the picturesque Cyril Toll 4 with his curious pigeon-toed stance land a mighty swing which bites off 300 yards of the distance between the tee and the green. When it is remembered also, that there will be fourteen Walker Cup team players.and a long list of for- mer State champions and other golfers of high degree, it will be seen that Jones will have to again demon- strate that he is the greatest golfer of them all if he is to cut through the field like a knife through cheese. Jones to Meet mineehy Opponents. He will meet eaiion worthy of his steel. Much will depend upon the draw as to the outcome of the first two rounds of match play, but still more infportant will be his own ability to maintain his usual accu- racy. If he should be off with his irons, as he was at Skokie and Wor- cester, or if his drives are not con- tinuously long and straight, he may meet with disaster. Eight of the holes border on the ocean with fatal results attending a sliced ball, while the eighteenth is a nightmare to a player who hooks. It is, of course, a fact that all these hazards threaten all contestants, but Jones will be de- fending his title while the other players have everything to gain and nothing to lose. Two rules which have been adopted for the tournament are interesting. The first is that the penalty for a ball out of bounds will be loss of distance only,-an innovation due to the fact that on many holes a ball is likely to disappear in the ocean. The other rule is that no woman wearing high-heeled be allowed to enter the grounds. Unorthodox Pars Are ‘ Sometimes Made. Golfers sometimes secure a par in Last week EP. Morrow | professional, | ter has had the score card, of the Indian Spring Club. had an unusual experience while playing re- jcently in the semifinal round of the a State amateur champion- i p. On the seventeenth hole, 212 yards and a par 3, and with the match all square, Morrow drove the green. His opponent did likewise. The night be- fore, however, the green keeper had changed the cups and there had been night. The plug of earth placed in -the hole from which the cup had .been removed had sunken more than an inch below the surface of the green and in this de- pression Morrow’s ball had come. to rest. Not knowing what else to do, he ‘tried to play the ball and naturally failed to get it out. His opponent went down in two putts for a win, and with the eighteenth halved, Mor- row was elminated from the final round. » ' Green Keeper Was At Fault. ‘ “The fault was the green keeper's,” said Pred McLeod, the Columbia Club “and the player should ‘not have been penalized, He should have played the ball in the depres eae " ¥ « ~ ¥Y *

Brenneman, former délegate, is being mentioned for the other seat' made vacant by the resignation of the veteran, George B. Keezell, to become county treas- urer. Republicans See Chance. In his remarks to the convention today John Paul stated that many of the Democrats who voted the Re- publican ticket last fall ‘‘are still in the mood to go with us again.” asserted that this election represents “the best chance and the only real chance we have ever had to wim a State election,” and added that the Republicans never have had a chance to win without the support of dis- senting Democrats. Mr. Paul empha- sized, however, that he thought it is “good citizenship” if a man votes for the candidate he thinks best re- gardless of party affiliation. He made clear to .the Republicans, however, there is no more reason not to sup- port Dr. Brown this fall than to fail to support any other Republican can- didate in the past.

Salisbury, Md., Aug. 24.—Irving Mumford, for many years justice of the peace at Ocean City, Md., was ar- rested by Federal prohibition officers at that sea shore resort this afternoon on a warrant charging possession and sale of intoxicating liquor. Arraigned ~ before nited States Commissioner Louder T. Hearn, here, the magistrate was released under $1,000 for trial September 7, when United States District Attorney Amos W. Woodcock stated he would appear as the prosecutor. Mumford pleaded- “not guilty” to each charge. The warrant sworn to by Herbert R. Johnson and Charles E. Grimshby,. Federal agents, stated Mumford sold each of them one pint of “réd whisky” for $3.50 per pint on August 17. Today they raided the vacant house on the boardwalk, where the sale was made, and found two allons and one pint of whisky, the officers swore in the warrant. Two others were-also arrested &nd charged with sale of intoxicants in the drive today to clean up the resort. i Warrenton Horse Show Seats Are Selling Out Special to The Washington Post.

Although all signs point to a battle royal on. the tariff, involving great danger to the Republican party because of the threatened ‘death struggle. be- tween the industrial East .and the agricultural West and South, it is we forgotten that the Senate coalition o , Democrats and: psuedo-Republicans, was ' beaten on the debenture feature of farm relief. A farm relief bill was finally passed acceptable to the country. There are many féatures of the tariff bill upon which: the Senate. Democrats and their _ late allies‘may split, affording art pppor- tunity for the solid Republican regulars _ to win. .Moreover, the strong Republi- can majority in the House stands as a safeguard nia the énaetment of a ff at oa Sats eth Bee 3 all friends of the protective tariff to be on guard against undue favoritism to agriculture at the expense of industry. The Nation’s prosperity could not con- tinue if a tariff such as is proposed. by Senator Borah should be enacted, If the controvérsy should result in a situa- tion where there myst be a tariff dis- criminating against industry or no tariff revision at all it would be the duty fice |Of protectionists to kill ‘the bill and leave matters as they stand. Under the present law there is employment for the mass of people, at any rate.. As for agriculture, the farm relief act promises to pring greater benefits than any tariff could confer. When any interest attempts to mo- nopolize the benefits of a tariff, to the exclusion of all.other interests, it raises up elements of opposition that combine to frustrate its attempt.

His family may take com- fort in the thought that his colleagues and other friends, from all parts of the country, will keep his memory green. FAR EASTERN TRADE. The advance of ‘civilization has been ever \westward, and the-advance of commerce is showing a similar trend. Only a few yéars ago western Europe was the center of the commercial world, but that distinction is being rapidly transferred’ to the United States. _At the, same time the commerce on the Pacific between America and the Orient is gaining ‘much’ faster than trade: in other parts of the world. Some ob- servers believe that the Pacific will be the future front door of the greatest commercial nations and that trade with the Orient. will exceed that with Europe. goods between the United States and Oriental countries is growing is illus- trated by the report of the Far Eastern merce. During the fiscal year ended June 30 exports to the Orient increased some of the most important countries concerned. “Only about one-sixth of the United States’ overseas trade goes to the Orient, but the rate of increase for the Far East last year was three this country. . a from Tennessee is long and contains il* The rapidity with which exchange af section of -the Department of Com- by $118,606,000, which is nearly 16 per cent.

If the coalition should. hold tewithet in spite of divergent views held by some Southern Democrats an effort doubtless will bé made to-prolong the debate into the regular sessions Many important questions not relating to the tariff are calling for consideration, and .it.may be impossible to concentrate discussion upon the tariff. Senator Watson: has intimated that if the tariff debate is carried into the regular session he will insist upon dropping the bill and going ahead with the regular business of Congress, charging up the failure of tariff revision to the Democrats and pseudo-Republicans. He is said-to be convinced that the country would resent the failure to revise the tariff and would elect a strong Republican _— and Senate next fall. Certainly the agricultural regions would not be pleased to see their hopes of tariff benefits dashed by jthe stub- bornness of a coalition that demanded a revision solely in the interest of agri- culture. The common sense of the country recognizes ‘the fact that some Y' “manufacturing industries, as well as agriculture, must have tariff relief, and that neither interest can get what it wants unless its concedes something to the other. If the East can not force through revisions beneficial to manu- factures it can, at least, defeat a bill framed entirely for the benefit of agri- culture at the expense of industry... The President is committed to revisions that | will rescue disabled industries as well as with that of the House, is sufficient to Ne e prevent thé passage of a sectional bill that would work ruin’to great industries UP the name of agricultural relief. > ) The fundamental error of ‘the ex- tual needs and the behest of the Budgét Bureau ‘the rresult is--not economy, but extrava- gance. Washington is a growing city. |Expenses are bound to increase if the city attempts to provide adequate facil- ities for its new population. A glance at the budgets of other cities comparable in size to Washington shows ‘that appropriations for running e District are very modest. Buffalo with a population about ‘equal to that of Washington has a budget nearly 20 per cent larger. Baltimore, which has about 50 per cent more people than the District, spends more than twice as much annually. The proportionate ex- penditures of Boston and Pittsburgh are likewise higher: Such cities as Milwaukee, New Orleans and Newark have fewer people and. slightly lower budgets than Washington. This does not take into account . the greater expense of the District govern- ment. Being the Nation’s Capital, Washington must maintain extensive parks, playgrounds, &c., and must exempt a great deal of valuable prop- erty from taxation. The Government formerly recognized the burden im- posed on the District government, and paid an-equitable share of the upkeep costs. But at present all the increased expenditures must be met by the tax- payer. In 1920, when appropriations amounted to only $19,709,000 the Gov- ernment contributed $9,718,000. But by 1929, when expenses had more than doubled, Congress had cut down its con- tribution to $9,000,000. The amount of taxes paid in the District in the past nine years has increased more than 225 per cént, while the amount paid by the Government has declined. Development of the National Capital should not be hampered by a starvation as | diet. In spite of the higher expendi- pared by the District Commissioners is not excessive. If Congress would make a fair contribution there would be no need for cramping the growth -of Washington. ee LAWRENCE D. TYSON. Washington mourns the death of Sen- ator Lawrence D. Tyson, of Tennessee. Although he had served a compara- tively short time in the Senate, he had won a high place, both for his legisla- ‘tive ability and his personal charm. His pure aims and broadly patriotic views were supported by a splendid ‘then further shrunk at tures of recent years, the budget as pre- itary record, notably during the the Philippines. Other important ex- ports’ to the Orient are automobiles, petroleum, machinery, tobacco, wheat; copper, lumber and. foodstuffs. In return the United States receives crude rubber, raw silk, jute, coconut products, wool, &c. The trade balance is in.favor of the Oriental nations. The United States received products valued at $1,239,612,000 from the Far East in 1928-29, which is almost $400,000,000 more than the value of exports to. that area. This may be largely explained by the demand of American factories for Oriental raw materials and the limited capacity of Oriental people to consume manufactured goods. The unfavorable trade balance. is further illustrated in the relative posi- — the nations hold in the lists of eustomers and importers. Japan ranked second to Canada as a source of supply to this country in 1927, but was fourth in the list of customers. China sent 3.6 per cent of our imports, but re- ceived only 1.7 per cent of our exports. Trade with the Orient is certain to in- crease. As the standards of living are gradually. raised new demands will be made for manufactured goods, and the Far Eastern countries will probably become America’s best customers. LEF@TURN SAFETY. Agitation for radical alteration of the Washington method of making the left- hand motor car turn at controlled inter- sections is based almost exclusively upon the argument that it differs from the rule in force in a majority of cities Great stress is laid upon the advantage of adopting a universal rule. But in the agitation for uniformity the. con- sideration of safety has been generally overlooked. An impartial study of the so-called Hoover turn is now available. It was made by the Baltimore Safety Council, an organization that has no interest in any specific rule of the road. Baltimore uses the so-called Hoover turn—outside the button and from the green directly into the red light—and the council finds that drivers “by using more caution and common sense” might reduce the num- ber of hecidents at controlled’ inter- sections by more than 40 per cent. The report covers a study of accidents as reported to the police in the periods from July 1 to December 31, 1927 and 1928. , In the last six months of 1927 there | hand turn. Of 126 persons injured in the 1927 period at controlled intersec- tions 39, or 31 per cent, were hurt by vehicles. making left-hand turns. For the 1928 period 183 were injured at controlled intersections, 60 of them, or 83 per cent, by vehicles making left- hand turns. Generalizing regarding the left-hand turn, the report says: ‘Many drivers upon crossing at an intersection on a green light, and then attempting to make a left-hand turn, do not realize that they have forfeited their right-of- way when the red is against them. By. continuing on they interfere with the right-of-way vehicles go- ing in the opposite direction and also endanger the safety of pedes- trians crossing with the green light. This is one of the principal causes of accidents at controlled intersections. The so-called Hoover turn permits a communications have been widespread. More than a year ago Detroit equipped a number of automobiles with radio ré ceiving apparatus. Messages radioed from headquarters put the officers in these machines immediately on the trail of criminals. Reports indicate that the plan has been very successful. Cleve- land and Chicago have both been ex- perimenting with similar systems, and New York has just evolved a plan for radio policing on a large scale. Special radio sets will be installed in 500 auto- mobiles, and a wave length will be as- signed to the department for exclusiye use. In spite of the precaution of using a special wave length and sending mes- sages in code, criminals have sometimes been able to listen in and make their escape as the result of information | | | given to officers by radio. In this re- driver making the left turn to take a/.nect the teletype system installed in , chance at darting through the stream | Washington has of oncoming traffic. Therein lies its fault. Traffic regulations should not’! leave life and death situations to the. discretion of the driver, because many drivers have no\sense. The régulation | used at controlled intersections in Washington leaves nothing to the dis- cretion of the driver. He is compelled to make the left turn when the way is clear. His vehicle at no time crosses a lane of oncoming traffic. The traffic director’s office, unfor- tunately, does not have at hand sta- tistics comparable to those worked out by the Baltimore Safety Council. If these figures were worked out it would .|seem that a basis of comparison as to the relative safety of the two turns would demonstrate that the Washington regulation makes for safety of pedes trians and motorists. That is the im- portant thing. “POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

A report of the Bureau of Public Roads based on figures collected from highway departments throughout the country indicates that 29,252 miles of improved highway were added to the |State systems during. 1928. This is an increase of 2,530 miles over the pre- vious year and brings the total mile- age of State highways to 306,442. Of | | ' miles are graded and drained but not ‘surfaced. This leaves a total of 193,- |138 miles that are surfaced with sand- clay, gravel, macadam, sheet asphalt, bituminous concrete, cement, brick and other pavements. The State systems comprise about half the highways_in the United States. Last year the States spent $764,648,134 on road and bridge work, most of which went for new construction. The aggre- gate income of the highway depart- ments was $849,326,598, 58 per cent of which was realized from motor ve- hicle fees’ and gasoline tax receipts.’ Fourteen per cent of the total was raised by. bond issues, The extension and - o yee 5 ee mig Bey ERR PE OR oh, RARE ED tar ei “ ig ss xt ee ig pe ee Bey Fe “ye wet > eet ot ce PB ae Ee ee , ” — able to meptorists. The last- few years have seen phenomenal development of highways, but the increase of mileage has not kept pace with increase of travel. The Bureau of Roads estimates that the United States now has a total of 615,000 miles of surfaced highway, compared with 378,000 miles in 1921. This is an increase of 65 per cent in eight years. But during those same years the registration of automobiles has increased more than 110 per cent, and statistics show that the average car travels much farther than it did a few years ago. The objective of highway depart- ments was once to build good roads be- tween all principal points in their State. Hundreds of roads which were once adequate to carry all traffic between large cities. have since been widened, and it is now realized that more than ‘one route between centers that draw ‘heavy traffic is desirable. It is neces. sary to spend large sums for supple- mentary highways as well as for the development of routes into less densely | settled areas. developed on such a gigantic scale that ithe States have not been able to build roads fast enough to supply the demand. It would be interesting to know to what extent the inadequacy of highways is . : Ke ee og SRS Wier 2 ee he ee bee " hy A ‘ a oH ap 8 7B hs Re Sita pS ae one ee Ne niger ets : cpewr, Pag as ARE bt AME shay? ~ i SBR ni fm tip Mime mn ass 6 ee Motor transportation has.

In summing up the effective work done by organization of women in| the National Capital those who are) able to gauge this service from the viewpoint of accomplishment, give credit to women’s organizations in churches and to organiza‘ions of | business and professional women. | There was a time when a church sew- | ing circle was a very narrow institu- | tion and confined its work simply to packing barrels for the heathen. To- day the church circles of women are | interested in civic betterment and join in many of the sociological cam- | Paigns being carried on by other or- | ganizations. The nonsectarian aid) given by these women to some of the civic campaigns can not be overesti- | mated. Six or seven years ago Judge Kath- | ryn Sellers, of the Juvenile Court, ex- | pressed regret that she got so little cooperation in her work fromi the churches. The response was imme- diate. In many churches a real big) brother and big sister movement is in operation all the time assisting the | ¢ehildren who come under the atten- | tion of the Juvenile Court or other | child protective agencies.

Keeper of Watch Fires. More and more the busy women | who are keepers of the Government watch fires in important positions are taking an interest in the work the women organizations of Wash- ington are doing. The resuit has been of mutual benefit, for the clubs have the benefit of these expert minds and logical counsel, while the clubwomen are able to help these | important workers for Uncle Sam in their work. Washington women point with) pride to women who are only second | in importance to the Vice President, the President of the Senate and to the Speaker of the House of Repre- | sentatives in the regard of those who | frequent the National Capitol Bulld- | ing and the House and Senate Of-| fice Buildings. | The “Little Vice President” and the | “Little Speaker.” as the secretaries to these officers of the Nation are called. | It happens that in this administra- | tion these businesslike personages are women. In passing, attention shouid | ve drawn to the fact that these | women, Miss Lola M. Williams, secre- | tary to Vice President Curtis, and Miss Mildred E.

Today’s True Detective Story The Flaw In a Perfect Case By VANCR WYNN HEN William Harrison, of appeared and no knowledge pould be obtained of his whereabouts, game to the conclusion that he had met with foul play. bway on a rent-collecting tour, and t; was known that he was sure to ion. A month went by and tng man. The sole topic of discus- fion in those parts revolved around phe query: ' What has become of William Har- yison? It was during one of these dis- ions that John Perry came to e front and amazed the authori- es with a remarkable story. He id that his brother, Richard Perry, ad murdered Harrison (for his and that the result of oney, ime was his enrichment to the ex- | nt of £130. John and Richard Perry lived with | oie mother in a little house on the | utskirts of the village. John was ot mentally strong; indeed, there feré some who regarded him as half- witted. Richard was physically and frentally strong, but his reputation lor integrity was not good. He had been caught in some questionable Ansactions, and it was hinted that © would not hesitate at murder for jhe sake of money. The magistrate of the district sent for John Perry, and the fellow re- ted his story. He was examined length, but stuck to his original Berean The only addition he fade to it was that he and his other were presenet when Richard ad assaulted and robbed William Garrison. He was wumable to say phat had become of the body because he. had run away while the robbery kas in progreas. The two men and the woman were placed on trial and were inadequate- yy defended. They were given rhe he that if they pleadéd gullty robbery their lives would be ared. But at the next term of wrt, Sir Robert Tyde placed them wn trial for murder. They were at kan ry (a terrible disadvantage because Gloucestershire, England, dis- | confessing to robbery they had ad- | mitted ; murderers, everybody in that part of the country | was a mass of circumstantial evidence | against John, He had gone | }ure of bave a large sum of money in his/ body. | Sided at still there was no trace of the miss- | the | by that they were potential There was only one flaw in what might be regarded as an otherwise perfect case, and that was the fail- the authorities to find the Sir Charles Turner, who pre- the first trial, had refused to accept the indictment for mur- | der because of this very flaw, aig! it was that which had caused a change in the indictment to robbery. But the second judge was not s0 Jealous of the old English law. He | took the ground that Harrison's non- appearance aiter six months was proof positive that he had | killed. So the family was convicted | and executed. | Soon after the execution one oi | the residents of Gloucestershire re- ; ceived am anonymous letter hinting that William Harrison was still alive. | Then came another story that he | was in Turkey. All of these rumors were treated aS mere gossip until three years later when the door of the local inn was opened and Will- iam Harrison entered the room. He said that after he had collect- ed the rents, as usual, he was beset by a gang of thieves, and the cash taken from him. But the toughs did not stop at mere robbery. ‘They took him to a wayside inn and in- vited him to take a drink upon the success of their enterprise. e vOoK it and in a little while became un- conscious. They had given nj”im drugged liquor. After this a gang had carried. him aboard a vessel. When he recovered consciousness he found that he was on his way to Turkey. He had lived there for two years. When he was asked why he had not communicated with his friends, he said that he feared that they would not believe his story and, as he was unable to make good the money that had been stolen from him, he had delayed his return as long as possible. Since that day— over two centuries ago—no man i1as been tried for murder in England without first proving the murder. an Next story—“The Man With the J (Copyright, Unusual Voice.” 1929.) In addition to this there | heen | firm of contractors, who paid the State 12', cents a day for each con- vict, expired. The brutal treatment by whipping, poor food, and toll in the malarial swamps of the State, which produced a high death rate, so shocked the good people of the State that the voters in the election of members of the Legislature gave them a direct mandate to abolish the léase system: It was done, placing the control of all convicts to a board of three commissioners who were given absolute power to deal with the convicts amd provide rules and regulations for their government. As district attorney of the largest district-in the State, which furnished next O New Orleans the largest number of convicts, 90 per cent colored, 1 was profoundly interested in the change Col. Parker, editor of the New Orleans Picayune, a man of dawntless courage and practical com- mon sense, set in operation in quick time a complete and humane system which has been in operation all thése years without complaint and which has reformed many prisoners. Col. Parker went to the penitentiary and witnessed the system in vogue. At the first meal that he saw, finding the food was dealt out separately to each prisoner, he ordered the warden to place the food on the table where every one could help himself. Tne warden protested they would kill each other in the scramble. “Put on enough to gatisfy each,” said Col. Parker, “and there will be no trouble.” Witnessing the sleeping conditions. he ordered the warden to install bathing facilities. The astonished | captain of the prison entered a mild | Protest, that many of these prisoners had never seen a bathtub. “You will see to it that not one foes tO his cell until he hes a thorough bath,” said Col. Parker, “I want al] tnese prisoners to have a night shirt.” |The astonished captain replied, “They don’t know what it means to sleep ina night shirt.” “They must sleep in night shirts which must he | laundered weekly.” “You will make |dudes of this aggregation of niggers j|and low down whites.” “They mav be down, but not out, we want to |maké better men and women out of | these people.” | Every prisonc on arrival) at the | penitentiary ° ar examined physically |and classified lass A comprised all |Stalwart men {from 18 to 30: these | were worked on State levees eight hours a day, with good food and com- fortable sleeping quarters with mus- quite netting—another innovation. The second class worked on the State farm and raised the food—cat- tle, hogs and vegetables in abundance for prison consumption. Several thousand acres of cotton were culti- "‘"? on an island in the Mississippi under healthful conditions, produced a goodly share of the ose of their keep. Good work 1 behavior brought reduction of time and permission as trusties to spend an occasional day ottside of the confined area. E The butchers, bakers, barbers and bookkeepers, were selected from the convicts to perform this class of work. which saved thousands of dol- lars to the State. All thése special employes were credited with a cer- tain sum of money which, at the termination of their sentence, was handed to them at their discharge, providing sufficient money to care for themselves until they secured em- ployment. This wise provision saved many from returning, as is often the case where the released convict finds the world turned against him. The women and least pltysically able men worked as operatives in the manufacturing part of the walled bulldings at the capital, where they made the clothing not only for the convicts but for all the inmates of State institutions. Work on’ public roads, on farms or any daily task of regular work, with an allowance how- ever small, with forfeiture for bad conduct, will prove a more satisfac- tory method than keeping them in idleness and turning them out pen- niless without a@ friend or a helping hand. There have been no prison riots, and the reutrn of fewer old timers than previous to that era, and a réduction of prison mortality. . J. H. SHEPHERD. Berwyn, Md., August 23, ; Eighteenth Amendment Discussed With. Reference to Its Being Enforced by the States of the Union—They Are Not Requir- ed to Enact Prohibition Laws, Writer Says. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The erroneous conception of nearly all the writerg of the meaning, pur- pose or object of the concurrent has led and is more and more lead- ing to “confusion more confused.” This is exemplified by phrases in constant use such ds “State prohibi- tion-enforcement acts,” “State en- forcement acts,” “local enforcement,” “States which have no enforcement laws,” always meaning and having reference to the enforcement by States of the elghteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Some writers assert that it is the duty of the States to enforce prohibition and that those States. which either have not enacted pro- hibition or have repealed it are vio- lating the Federa) Constitution, and some call it annulment. In hig let- ter to Gov. Roosevelt which was read at the governors’ conference July 16, Mr. Wickersham falls into the same error when he says: “The amend- ment confers upon the States con- current jurisdiction with the National Government for the enforcement of this measure.” These erroneous notions and mis- leading expressions arise from a mis- conception, or. perhaps failure to con- sider, our dual form of government— the: powers of the States and: the powers of the United States. The eighteenth amendment does not ‘‘confer,” grant, bestow nor dele- gate “upon the States concurrent jurisdiction,” nor any jurisdiction, nor any power, right or duty what- ever. The prevalent notion—we can not give it the dignity of opinion— that the eighteenth amendment con- fers upon the States concurrent jurisdiction, or anything else, is re- sponsible for the prevailing con- fusion and groping for some way out of it. Each of the 48 States—the original States and the States later admitted into the Union—are each sovereign in itself, each of them having all the authority and power of any nation on earth, é¢xcept the authority or powers delegated to the Federal Gov- ernment or prohibited by the Con- stitution to the States. Let us read the tenth amendment, without which and those that pre- cede it the Constitution would not have been ratified by the States: Article X—The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohib- ited by “it to the States, are reserved to the States, respective- ly, or to the people. The United States never conferred or delegated any authority or power to the States nor the several States never conferred or délégated author- ity cr power to each other, but only .to the Federal Government. Long before the eighteenth amend- ment was adopted many of the States enacted prohibition laws, and their authority to do 8 Ws never ques- tioned. And yet men and women have formed the }F-bit of thinking and writing as though the States de- tive their authority to enact such laws from the eighteenth amendment, and that it is their duty under the amendment to do so—nullification, violation of the Constitution if the fail or neglect to enact them or re- peal those they have enacted. The concurrent clause of the eight- eenth amendment follows: Section 2. The Cangress and the several States shall have con- current power to enforce this ar- ticle by appropriate legislation. As to the States this can only mean that the several States retained or, as the Constitution says, “reserved” the power—concurrently with Con- gress—concerning intoxicating liquors. In other words, the States did not delegate exclusive power or authority over the matter. The States may ex- _ercise their reserved powers or not, as they deem advisable. Under the provisions of Article III of the Constitution the judicial power of the United States is vested in United States courts and shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under the Constitution and the laws of the United .-:atés. The State courts have no jurisdiction over the Volstead act or any other act of Congress. The States are clearly within their rights when ay either refuse to en- act prohibition laws, or any other, or repeal those heretofore enacted, whether enacted before or after the adoption of the eighteenth amend- ment. / Take prohibition out of the laws of a few more States and it will go out of the Constitution by the same route it went in, and the eighteenth amend- ment will come to be looked upon as a temporary aberration in the lifé of a great Nation.

Swann Harding Replies to Dr. William Gerry Morgan Anent Conditions in the Medical Pro- fession and Practice, Declaring the Physician Has Not Suc- cessfully Challenged Statements Presented by the Writer. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The very interesting statement of Dr. Will- iam Gerry Morgan, dated August 4, and which appeared in The Post, has just been called to my attention. Dr. Morgan has made the initial mistake of failing to read my article; he con- fines his comments to The Post edi- torial, which is poor téchnique, al- though the editorial rather well con- veyed parts of the article. The article itself was revised and the revision was in the hands of the editor of Current History one month before it appeared in print; due to blundering by an.of- fice secretary this revision did not appear in print and a brief addenda only was published in the rear pages of August Current History, which, torial altogether overlooked in com- pany with most other readers. It was not my intention to hold the medical profession, as’ such, respons- ible for the condition of disorganiza- tion which exists; the responsibility is in part civic. ¥ agree to this. ut physicians keenly resent any lay criticism. For instance, I am fre- quently, loudly and often scurrilously vituperated in the Journal of the American Medical Association itself. Therefore, it would seem, physicians tacitly accept a responsibility which I would not lay altogether upon them. If lay criticism or interference are anathema, and I do not hold they are, but the profession does, then the pro- fession should right this disorganiza- tion. That there is disorganization is evi- denced by H. H. Moore’s “American Medicine and the People’s Health,” (Appleton), from which I extracted many facts, and which was written by the director of the factécollecting ac- tivities of the committee on the cost of medical.care, with which the American Medical Association claims (editorial, August 10) to be in close cooperation. AMr. Moore has not recanted. He de- clared that the disorganization was as bad as ever in a recent issue of the American Journal of Sociology. The American profession is in part accountable for faulty distribution, because fledgling doctors simply will not settle in rural districts. How far self-sacrifice should be expected to go here is another matter. Personally, I think a fundamental reorganization of this basically important and neces- sary profession is in order. I shall not enlarge upon the fact that physicians are inaccessible other than to refer Dr. Morgan, and others who may be interested, to Mr. Moore’s book men- } tloned above. It is also obvious that if the Ameri-- can Medical Association gave litense numbers to competent members of the profession and permitted doctors to insert dignified and nonspectacular cards in the press giving their name, specialty and A.-M. A. number, good physicians would be far less inac- cessible to persons of the laity. The matter of fees I covered in the North American Review for October, 1928, while my statement in this Cur- rent History article was extracted from the records of a physician. Mr. Moore in his book speaks both of peo- ple going without service because of inability to pay and because of their inability to find competent practi- tioners. I sincerely commend his work to all and sundry. If Dr. Morgan will take the trouble to explore this one volume he will discover that every statement I made was not only true, but that a very great deal more evidence for what I said exists than I actually was able to cite in a brief article. The dif- ference between us probably is that I have devoted eight years’ study to these matters and Dr. Morgan has not. He will find for Instance that chapter IX of Mr. Moore’s book is entitled “The Insufficiency of Interest Among Private Practitioners in Preventive Medicine,’ that it is 19 pages long and has a bibliography of 45 num- bers; he will find it contains a sub- heading reading: “The backwardness of private practioners in the preven- tion of specific diseases.” He will find a subhead also read- ing, “The Pecuniary Interest of Pri- vate Practitioners in the Ill Health of Their Patients.” He will find L. I.. Harris commenting on some of these things in the Journal of the American Medical lation for August 25, 1928, page 521, and the American Journal of Public Health commenting’ editorially in March, 1929. I do not blame Dr. Morgan for his hysteria or his impetuosity. He lis a busy man. I do contend that he shoula be sure of his facts before he ventures such rash statements in the public press. teen years’ re- search have taught me to go slowly and to be gure of what I say, and for him to remark that what I have said “is an accusation without a scintilla of truth as a foundation for it” ex- actly proves what I have so frequent- ly said—physicians are not alive to conditions: they are indifferent to gross injustices which patients under- °. ‘ . My regret is that faulty organiza- tion makes adequate medical treat- ment inaccessible to so many peo- ple; that this qrives them to the mosti grotesque cults, and that medicine loses a great opportunity for good thereby. Worse still, if anything, the fact that the slightest adverse criticigém of présent conditions will bring down upon the critic the most tremendous samples of invective from the medical press and from various physicians. ° nalities do, not matter here; it is a realm of'fact. I have‘the facts. Dr. Morgan has not, success- fully challenged them, Calli will not help. I freely grant the pro- fession the advantage of me in that adolescent game. I respect facts and facts only.

Special to The Washington Post. Newport, R. I., Aug. 24-—A week of the most active entertaining in the history of the colony was brought to @ climax when Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Duncan gave a ball at Bonniecrest for 500 guests to mark the conclu- gion of the annual invitation tennis tournament, which has been the fea- ture attraction at the Casino for sev- eral days. In addition to the elab- orate dances given by the cottagers, former Representative and Mrs. Perry Belmont had a dinner for 100 guests, at Belcourt, in honor of Lady Low- ther, their house guest, an unusual feature of the dinner being the pres- ence of more than seventy of the guests at one large table in the din- ing room. Following a steady succession of luncheons and dinners in honor of the tennis players during the first four days of the week, the outstand- ing entertainments were inaugurated Thursday evening when Mr. and Mrs. William Fahnestock had a “house warming” party at ise Dore, their new estate on Narragansett avenue, for 400 guests, including cottagers and a number of visitors in the col- ony for tennis week. Prior to the dance Dr. and Mrs. Thomas L. Ben- nett had a dinner party for 46 guests at Wild Acre, in honor of their daughter, Miss Hope Bennett, who will be presented to society during the winter. Last evening virtually all the cot- tagers attended the debutante party for Mise Olive Whitman, daughter of former Gov. Charles S. Whitman, which Commodore and Mrs. Arthur Curtiss James gave at Beacon Hill House for more than 400 guests. The handsome estate was brilliantly dec- orated for the occasion, and the Swiss Village and blue gardens were out- lined with flood lights. The guests of Mr. and Mrs. Belmont attended the dance following the dinner at Belcourt, while guests from the nu- merous other dinner parties in the colony also were present. Mr. and Mrs. William Fahnestock entertained at Boise Dore for Mr. and Mrs. A.

Van Beuren, who are at Gray Craig, and Mr. and Mrs. Dudley Davis also gave dinners. While there were other attractions in the colony throughout the week, the invitation tennis tournament at the Casino with 92 of the outstand- ing players in the country competing was the center of interest for the majority of the cottagers, although the polo matches at Sandy Point Farm, the estate of Mrs. Moses Tay- lor, and the gold competitions at the country club were witnessed by large , gatherings. The boxes in the grand stand at the Casino and also the umbrella reservations near the cham- pionship courts were thronged daily with brilliant assemblages from th various villas. The players were entertained at a luncheon at Bailey’s Beach, where every privilege was extended them throughout the week and also at the Clambake Club and Casino, and Mrs. Vincent Astor, Mrs. Edward V. Hart- ford and Mrs. Barger Wallach were among the cottagers giving lunch- eons and dinners in their honor.

With polo matches being played in the colony three times each week, the sport has gained a large follow- ing from among the colonists and the game this afternoon at Sandy Point Farm attracted an even greater throng that during the week, when | @ polo round robin was held with two teams named the Reds and Whites and composed of members of | the Westchester Club, engaged in matches with the Princemere Team of Boston. Mr. W. Thorn Kissel was the donor of the prizes for team winning the | greatest number of points after play- ing in two matches.

There was a full circular flounce which be- an at the low waistline at the side ack and went straight down to a low point on the skirt and then formed an uneven circular flounced bottom of the skirt. This flounce was very harrow where it began at the waist- line but was very wide in the back, forming almost a train and again graduated to a narrow width again to give a snerter effect in the front. It was very full and rippling, giving the important sweep to the hem of the gown so necessary for smertness just now. Mrs. Henry B. Joy wore at one of the dinners she gave at Narragan- sett Pier recently a dress of rose crepe de chine combined with rose velvet and made in the new sweeping at the hem effect. Miss Grace C. Burton, sister of Sen- ator Theodore Burton, of Ohio, looked very smart one day lunching down street with a party of friends in a dress of white crepe de chine with a coat to match.

Aitchison, Dare’s Weekly Miladi’s Boots Fashion Letter. At ECENTLY we have had an ad- R vance peep at two widely dif- férent autumn collections of smart shoes, so today we are going t» pass on to you a few ideas of what fall “footery” will be like. One was the collection of Pinet, one of the few French houses mak- ing shoes on American lasts. While there are no startling changes or innovations to record, a few new tendencies, in keeping with the rest of the mode, are to be noted. For example, the range of browns, which we call “castor,” is very no- ticeable in afternoon and _ sports shoes. All the browns, in fact, from beige on up, have a considerable im- portance. The Rage of Red. As we would expect, from the im- portance of red in the mode, red shoes are seen in abundance, mostly in rather deep, rich shades. Gray is also an excellent color, especially grays which verge strongly toward light blue. The darker shades of blue are also “popular. ‘We will probably see red shoes worn a good bit this autumn, even with ensembles in other colors, the red lending a piquant note of accent to the total effect. > The tendency is to use the slightly shiny leathers, rather than the suedes and rough-surfaced one, though quite often the two are com- bined in the same shoe, both being of the same color. Heels incline to be rather sensible, and continue to be adapted in height to the occasion and purpose. Crepe Replaces Satin, Crepe <ie chine seems to have pret- ty thoroughly ousted satin from its traditional position, and very charm- ing -indeed are the brilliant evening sli of this material. Binet is launching a new idea in evening slippers this fall—tashioned of crepe de chine, they are hand- in a substance which looks dery rather than paint- but which has the curious prop- of glowing with a weird phos- t t under illumination effect startlingly beautiful, and must be seen to be appreciated. The Slipper de Luxe. the trimmings that go to make up a Paris opening, expressed the last idea in bootery de luxe. As in the Pinet collection, woven thong effects are popular, the differ- ence being that in the Pinet shoes these consist of leather strips of con=- trasting colors woven into a compli- cated net, wheteas Mary Bendalari, head of the house of Sandalari, who created the Deauville sandal, is now using a flat piece of leather, white for example, with tiny thongs, say, of brown, woven in and out, creat- ing a quite different effect. An interesting feature of her sport shoes is that in many instances she has made up, from the same leathers, handsome belts ta match: One of a Kind. Particularly interesting use is be- ing made by Miss Bendalari this sea- son of ancient fabrics of all sorts— precious fabrics, we might almost call them, so valuable are they. many of these old stuffs from China and India having interwoven threads of pure metallic gold. These have been made up into eve- ning slippers of gorgeous yet restrain- ed elegance, with a matching bag of the same material. And since many of these materials can be found only in very small pieces, the lovely lady who wears them knows that she will never, never encounter another lovely lady wearing identical slippers or carrying an identical bag. . Strap treatments, many of them patented, are particularly interesting, several straps being intertwined in the most surprising fashion. In some instances, on evening slippers, the strap instead of merely covering the instep goes entirely around the back of the foot, recalling ancient sandals held in place by separate thongs.

The two daughters of the Spanish Ambassador, Mile. Rosa Padilla and Mile. Maria Padilla, wore lemon yel- low dresses with felt hats to match at one of the recent out-of-door par- ties. These dresses were not made alike nor were the hats alike, but the colors were on the same general tone. , Mrs. Ogden Mills had on, when she came to Washington for a few days last week, a daytime dress of black and beige crepe de chine with a jabot of beige chiffon down one side of the draped bodice. She wore a small bei hat with a black band on it. .

Another hight, Mrs. Leiter wore a black chif- fon dress made very much like her white one and caught with a large motiff of diamante at the left side just below the normal waistline. Autumn Hats Worn. With the advent of the fur scarf and choker comes the fal] hat. Most women heve purchased them by this time and wear them gayly in spite of the burning rays of old sol or have them ready on shelves for introduc- tion to the world. The fall hats rival in colorfulness and embellishment those of the sum- mer and last Easter. They glow in the beauty of rich dark tones, soft velvets and brushed and polished felts. They may be a close cap fit- ting the head like a wig or in twisted effects or velvet and silver cloth very much like the summertime bandannas at the beacl™s, Some of the newest models had their inspiration from old sun bon- nets, although, instead of hiding the fece like the quaint ones worn by Kate Greenway maidens the brims are cut and turned back to give the fashionable off-the-forehead effects. The hats with no back and front brims but long drooping rtions over the ears which were 60 fashion- able in the early spring are with us again. Only they resemble the long. sad ears and shining head of a hound dog more then ever. They are chic and the smart woman will wear them. But so rarely are they becom- ing that it ts with great relief that the woman who likes t@ dreag be- comingly as well as fashionably has heard that several other styles of millinery are quite as much in the mode. The clever littie bereta some of the leading millinere make so well and which can be so well individualized for smartness and becomnigness are still in the yogue. Often a woman has a number of variations of this t of hat to match each one of gowns as an essential method of real preparedness for the fall and for pres- ent hour wear. Besides the sun bonnet effect here and there we gee little quilted caps nd in but that look like they have been from chin and @ young man She lets them fly unknotted so that she can : 5 £ ee ee é ES Bee ne ay 3 Weddings Celebrated in Takoma Park All Church Functions and More or Less Elaborate.

Fashion Has Reinstated the Suit . ga T weeds Acquire New Formality : As a Vital Factor in Assembling the Fall Wardrobe It} [2:3 s Can Not Be Ignored by Style-Conscious Women. sateen . Intricate Cutting and Manipulation of-Erstwhile Sports ; | ; * Fabrics Give Them Fashion Importance. + "9 bad ~ _— ; O PRODIGAL has ever returned to greater glory than has the suit, one-time staple of the wardrobe, but recently completely absent from it, its place usurped by that ingenious invention known as the ensemble; now, however, the suit bursts into the fashion scene spon- gored by every important designer in Paris: It is undeniably the talk of the oncoming fall season. and has staged its return in such a vast variety of forms that one can say with safety there will be a suit for every one and every one suited. The suit, for all the popularity of the dress and coat combinations, has always been highly favored by the American. woman, and she welcomes its return. Paris championed this time, with relish. A great many things may be held responsible for its return to vogue, but certainly the reappearance of the waistline has had more than a little to do with it. Likewise the current fashion importance of tweeds, which have blossomed in endless loveliness, and lend themselves perfectly to general utility purposes for which a suit was first designed. | Twee and Knitted Fabrics. Tweed “covers a multitude of fab- rics this season. It appears in rough and knobby form, on the other hand it is often as flat_ and smooth and pliable as a silk fabric. It appears in endless novelty weaves. Jerseys are about in great profusion, both printed and plain. Jane Regny, whose very wearable creations are in- variably «a hit in the American mar- ket, makes & smart belted cardigan suit, slightly circular as to skirt, of navy blue jersey dotted in red and cream color with a tuck-in blouse of cream. crepe. j Reversible tweeds and knitted fab- rics are being used effectively in suits. From Champcommunal comes a suit which uses the dark side of a jersey knit for skirt and coat, the reverse side, which is lighter, for a tuck-in blouse and scarf. This idea has al- ready been adopted in the American market, and a similar suit, shown at the Garment Retailers’ Fall Fashion Show in New York in July, was an outstanding hit. costume, which give it entree to fairly formal occasions for any day- time hour. Velvet and Broadcloth. The suit by no means confines ita ™@. new self to tweeds, jerseys and knit- ted fabrics. Velvet and broadcloth are both prominent mediums in in- terpreting suits for formal occasions, Patou employs black velvet to make a dignified and rich dressmaker type of suit. The finger-tip length of coat has a shaped front, and” dips slightly at the back. Black fox forms a big soft collar and ‘continues on around the bottom of the coat, and narrow bands of fox trim. The skirt is cut with a slightly circular agre. Suzanne Talbot presents a suit of broadcloth, with a finger-tip-length coat, lavishly trimmed with fox. Important Features. There are several definite condclu- sions to be gleaned from a general » survey of the suit situation. Skirts are well down, from 2 to 4 inches be- low the knees. Coats vary in length, from finger-tip length and three- quarter length to full length. And, whereas the fussy suit is out of the picture, the uncompromisingly severe suit is just as far out, and a truly re- gal combination results in a suit which is feminine and yet dignified, which is graceful and. sophisticated. Elegance with restraint is the key- note of the new designs. a | Suits Sketched. Jllustrated on this page are three of the new fall suits. At the left is a suit of beige Lido cloth; with three- quarter coat. Beaver makes a deep soft collar, and a band around the bottom which -follows a désign. in. seaming. Worn with this is an overs blouse of matching flat crepe, which has a peplum. . : In the center is one‘of. the new suits with a finger-tip-length coat. % Beaver makes a smart notched collar and a delightful little muff unbuttons to reveal a sizable pocketbook. Pie- shaped inserts give a circular swing to the skirt, which has a yoke top, and a tuck-in blouse. Brown is the” A color, a color which ranks next to the perennial black in popularity for fall. At the right is a suit of greater for- mality as to cut, and yet, being made of a brown tweed, adapts itself to @ multitude. of occasions. A long coat is dignified by intricate seamings, the A collar is edged with brown caracul, A” gay printed scarf, in brown, yellow, red and blue is made into a tuck-im-. blouse for this suit. The skirt itself is yoketopped, with a front panel cu. slightly circular. ee bo © 2 6 oo © ‘eee ee © .

Under a new guise the sult came back again, an ensemble of the long coat and frock, with the Lining of the coat matching the dress under- neath, and that idea has survived several seasonal changes.

Bombay, India. Famous as the principal port of | a country that constitutes a world | ‘In itself, Bombay, which is ap island as well as a great city, boasts a large monument and the monument boasts the name, Gateway of India. ! Erected to commemorate “the land- ing in India of their Imperial Maj}- eaties, King George V and Queen Mary, on the 2d of December, 1911,” this massive arch of Anglo-Indian art. provides dfStinguished visitors and ordinary folk from across the seas with an imposing doorway to India of the moguls and the mahara- jahs; of the Mutiny and Gandhi's “non-cooperation;” of great famines and surprising riches; of more than 300,900,000 natives and less than 300,000 English; of outcast human beings and cows held sacred: of mud hoyels and magnificent palaces; of | of au- tigers, elephants and cobras; tomobiles and plows of forked sticks: of burning ghats and the worshiped | Ganges{ of gayly colored saris and | brown skins stretched tight over thin bodies; of paihted foreheads and be- jeweled noses; of hot curries and béetel-nut chewing; of mosques and temples and the Taj Mahal. Yes, the Gateway to India leads to all this and much more. No sooner do you walk through this symbol of empire than you are met by two In- diam boys arrayed as little green imps in a campaign to popularize Mr. Wrigley’s product In a land where betel-nut ranks as the fa- vorite chewing medium and a few cents only are available for the day’s food supply of many a family. Here also for your first view of the Orient are spider-limbed coolies, humped bullocks, American auto- | mobiles, halfecaste*® chauffeurs and birds galore. To your right after | passing through the gateway you) seé a cow sitting on the sbaid- headed statue of Hardinge of Pens-. hurst, viceroy and governor-general from 1910 to 1916. Greatly to your surprise you find kites and crows lazily flying and soaring around the Apollo Bunder, Bombay's principal landing pier, and over the traffic of the city’s streets. There are two reasons why Bombyy | has such a large bird population alonz with its million inhabitants. First of all, this is a land where the native | mind classes the killing of an animal or a bird with that of murder; second- | ly, Bombay has a lot of garbage and | few street cleaners, with the :result | that these scavengers, the kites and | crows, have their living all arranged for In what Kipling calls the “Queen City of India.” In Its 1,000,000 People. This city of over 1.000.000 people, a great cotton center with great tex- tile factories. claims to be more co.- mopolitan than any other Every province in India supplies its quota to Bombay, and the foreign popula- tion ranges from Chinese, Japanese and Malays to the various nationali- ties of Europe and Africa. Here are Afghans, Sikhs, Rajputs and Benr- galis; here are Arabs, Armenians, Ne- groes. Persians, Lascars. Sinzhalese and Siamese: here are white men from all parts of the British Empire and from America Christians are comparatively few in number; the Hindus are most numerous, and the Mohammedans come next in numeri- eal strength. Wealthiest of all as i class and influential out of all pro- portion to their 60,000 are the mem- bers of that extraordinary sect, the Parsees—but they are to be a story by themselves. Bombay has much to offer to the American traveler coming to India for the first time. The fine homes of rich Parsees, British residents and maharajahs on the beautiful drives of the city. Many public buildings. among them the Victoria and Albert Museum, with a big stone elephant outside: Walkeshar temple. sacred to the sand god; government house, the official residence of the Governor of Bombay during the so-called cold weather; the Prince of Wales Museum, containing examples of Indian indus- tries: Elphinstone and Wilson Colleges | for the higher education of natives; Crawford market. where fish, fowl, fruit, flowers and vegetables are sold im separate buildings: the tow. hall, hung with paintings of histori- cal English and Indian personaze:: the ornate Victoria Station and the hospital bearing the name of a noted Parsee philanthropist, Jamsetjee Jee- _jeebhoy. Bombay boasts a greater number of .imposing public buildings than any American city of the same size, but architecturally it is hodge-podge. A few quotations from a local guide- book tell the story. The law courts are “Early English,” and the presi- dential secretariat is in “the Venetian Gothic style.” The University Hall and University Library offer, respec- tively, “the French , Decorated style of t e fifteenth century” and “the style of fourteenth century Gothic.” The telegraph office is “Romanesque,” while the old general postoffice was “designed in the medieval style by Trubshawe.” ‘The style of the Gateway of India is “based on the work of the s8ix- teenth century in Gujarat,” and the Prince of Wakes Museum got its in- tion from “the Indian work of: 4° - Outcasts | | would you? flesn., | 508 Bet seers native way of F teeneecitation in inenuinay.

Picturesque combina- tions constantly meet the eye—vistas Of Hindu towers and stone garvings; Mohammedan domes and inarets; water tanks with Steps leading down from small temples; the deep, over- hanging archways and balconies of the shops.

Bombay has about three thousand jewelers of the different Indian nationalities. In the Street devoted to bullion buying and | selling, the turnover during the course of a good day may amount to over $2,000,000. To the American accus- tomed to vaults, burglary insurance and armed vans, the sights of the bullion bazaar are astounding. With | difficulty the chauffeur negotiates | his way through a narrow street | crowded with speculators and hawk- ‘érs and what-nots, past shops in which the gold and silver business is transacted. These shops have a frontage of 6 feet and extend back about 20. Bars and coins of the pre- cious metals are spread over the floor | as if there were no thief nearer than | New York, and silver bars are carted | in open bullock carts through the | streets without squads or guards. | (Chicago papers please copy.) - Stocks and Horses. Bombay's native stock exchange tis a sort of “curb” affair along a street of shopless bazaars. Taken together | these brokers’ bazaars look like a series of Oriental cafes, the little plat- | form in front of the doors covered | with carpets and each platform pro- | vided with three pearl-colored divans, | Here hundreds of brokers and mer- | chants, dressed in tunic and turban | and possessing large amounts of avoir- | dupois, sit and talk, smoking of drinking syrup waters, when they are not circulating from platform to plat- form doing business or giving and receiving news and rumors.

Almost everywhere British influ- ence is evident. The streets, parks, bridges and homes bé@ar_ English You see such as Duxbury Napier road, The Manse and Sandhurst Bridge. The zoo is Vic- toria Gardens, and a sign announces, “Whist Drive Tonight.” Out of Antiquity. Of course, the city has a race course and various clubs where pleas- ure is pursued as a duty.. And what could be more English than the no- tice, “Please instruct your driver to use his horn with moderation?” The American touches are few in num- ber, and what there are smack of the commercial. So far as the best Hia- du-American combination I have seen was a sacred cow and calf walk- ing past a sign on a wall announc- thanks to extraordinary stock market remains tn contact by wireless and “the city” in. London and York and New Orleans. The local native brokers, their peculiar beliefs regarding the sanctity of bulls and cews, may ‘be classified as “bulls” and “bears,” ‘they have their bull markets and panics in which great fortunes are /made and lost in a day. Still talked about in these brokers’ bazaars is the great panic of 1864-1865 resulting from our Civil War.

BELL— E who have contemplated the growth of the cinema from 3 the peculiarly advantageous viewpoint of the National Capi- 2... tal have. I am afraid, a disturbingly lop-sided notion of the Hroader aspects of the motion picture industry. I am led to this belief by Mr. Far! of the Baplent of the pictures’ protagoniats, who advises me somewhat to wit: Wingart, one more “The bright radiance of Broadway's best entertainment is being projected nowadays, thanks to the talking and singing movies, to -@very nook and cranny of these United States. "There was a time when only the people in the larger cities were able to see and hear the biggest stars of the theatrical world, bie | pow these personalities, with all their charm and entertaining ability, | bre being taken into theaters everywhere.” * This. 1am constrained to believe, is wholly true, and while it may > Hot mean much to the casual Washingtonian, nevertheless it is of freamendous importance to the dwélier in the hinterland. ~ Washington, by virtue of its proximity to New York and easy Accessibility from Chicago, as well as its recognized cultural back- ground, has always been included among ‘‘the larger cities” that have enjoyed the best the theater has had to offer. This city long has been {ntimately familiar with the accomplishments of the foremost dra- matic actors, operatic stars, musical comedy luminaries, artists. vaudevillians, circus performers and buffoons of burlesque. Therefore, when their activities have been transferred to the audible pelluloids the results have been taken latgely as a matter of course, subject, naturally, to the normal variations of recording, projection and other mechanical considerations inseparable from the problem -of articulating shadows on a sjlver sheet. : We have known ti*ir voices, their idiosyncrasies, their distinctive jntonations and the manner in which théy have been accustomed to puit the action to the spoken word and it has all been very interest- dng but not too excessively exciting, this viewing. them through a new medium. * But what a totally different reacton must be experienced by the amusement seeker who, through the agency of the talking picture, for the first time finds himself able.to apprehend something of the personality of the player by hearing as well as seeing him in the Startlingly close approximation of réality the cameras and micfo- hones are able to achieve! + — e * T HIS is a privilege that is being accorded the resident villager , ° heretofore most the theater's createst artists In the flesh, with an ever-increasing degree df rapidity that a year ago would not have been thought physically possible. * The goal, when talking pictures first demonstrated that they were Pniitied to he taken seriously as an appreciable factor in mass enter- remote from the likelihood of viewing concert | ma A Norma Shearer ‘in “The Last ef Mrs. Cheyney” —Palace.

Thus, figst time ever, scores of millions of moeviegoers will be enabled to yevel in the artistry of the distinguished elite of theaterdom, ’ The cultural significance of this revolutionary departure from every previous basis of reckoning is incalculable.

Y of great solace to Mr. Welford Beaton, publisher of the Film - Bpectator, whose views were reproduced in part in a recent daily : solumn falling under the jurisidiction of this department. Mr. Beaton $s so convinced of the fallibility of the talking screen that he gives it only until next February to turn up its toes and suffer the throes of an early and deserved demise. Strangely enough there is evidence that Mr. Beaton’s views may not be completely unsupportable by fact. Fred Niblo, erstwhile vaudeville monologist, traveloguer and actor, but more recently to be numbered among the saner of the directors of silent drama—TI recall no talkie that he has made—recently re- turned to Los Angeles from a 5,900-mile journey through nine States and two Canadian provinces with the declaration that he had not found one person on the entire trip who had come out unequivocally for talking pictures. All were running over with questions concerning the probability of a renaissance of the silent film. This, however, Mr. Niblo attributed in large part to the inexpertness with which audible pictures were projected in the cities which he Visited. That is ever, it seems, a valid complaint. Washington’s downtown, ET there is another side to the picture. Provided with as perfect projection of both action and sound as it is reasonably possible to procure, but many of the residential theaters that have allegedly been equipped to do justice to the talkies are on an easy parity with the least satisfactory of the small-town Western shooting galleries which Mr. Niblo cites as among the potent reasons why in some localities the popularity of talking pictures has met with serious impediment, if not actually broken down. oe ” . . with valuable dispatches from the firing line in Hollywood, adds disquieting testimony for those who have felt that the talkies have been having it all their own way since the passion for pan- demonium got in motion. Tt- seems: that recently on the West Coast an enterprising im- presario willing to experiment with a program planned for a series of. benefits, where nobody stood to lose even a thin dime, conceived the-lusty idea of reviving a few of the more sure-fire of the mute mimings of an earlier day. ‘The pictures ho hit npon as a means of testing the public taste wétée, to be sure, pretty fair exhibits of a going industry at its best, an@-included Griffith's “Intolerance” and “The Birth of a Nation,” Chtaplin’s ‘‘Shoulder Arms" and “The Kid,’’ Fairbanks’ “The Mark of Z.0rro,”’ Barthelmess’ “Broken Blossoms,” and many others of com- parable quality.

Now, whether this was true because a vast number of vouthful fans had come along knowing these sterling works only hy hearsay, or because a t number found it interesting to compare styles and customs, an erhaps even movie technic, of five or ten years ago with the mt, yOu are as well qualified to answer as 1—better, no doubt. p-the matter of that, if proof wete needed that the silent picture ‘etains something of its old appeal, nothing would be necessary @ pointing out the exceptionai business scored by both Lon }and-Greta Garbo in their most recent releases to clinch the mit.on the side of the soundlegs ginema.

As the location of the picture is laid in England, the director, Sidney Franklin, gathered together a group of English players in order to give the picture the right background. This led to the discovery of the many different expressions used by the cast. For instance, Norma Shearer spoke a line in the play, saying she feared a policeman might be _ called--to which George Barraud, who takes the part of the butler, answered that she should have no fear for there were no “bobbys” near. Other expressions that came to the fore were such as janitors being re- ferred to as “porters” and drug stores as “chemist shops.” Sidewalks were called “footpaths” and candies “sweets.” Basil Rathbone, the Lord Dilling of the picture, mentioned that his car ran out of “petrol’-— meaning gasoline-and Cyril Chad- wick said he always carried a “stick” —which we would refer to as a cane. So-—-throughout the picture, the dialogue writer was called on to change the words to fit in with the Englishman's vocabulary In order to give the picture authenticity.

BILLIE DOVE IN ROMANTIC GLYN BLAZER Billie Dove has often been called the most beautiful girl on the screen. Such fame usually detracta from the histrionie repute of an actress, and in past years this may have been true of Miss Dove. But in her last few vehicles critics have come to realize more and more that Miss Dove has given the motion picture screen something beside her cameo- like beauty—that shé is an actress of skill and finesse, and that her characterizations are more and more conipelling. Her latest stellar. vehicle, “The Man and the Moment,” a First Na- tional picture, is now on the -screen at the rle Theater. This time Miss Dove appears in an American story as a typical Ameri- can girl. The story, by Blinor Glyn, has all the vivid quality that Mme. Glyn usually writes into her liter- ary efforts, yet has an uhusually novel and interesting plot, well worked out, with suspense and thrills alternating the love scenes. Briefly, the story deals with an or- phan girl who thinks her guardian is a little too exacting. Her sea- plane breaks down in the midst of a water party of jazzy youths, and one member of the party, a gay young roue, mistakes the girl, who has fainted, His surprise when he discovers the sex of the pilot leads to a violent love affair, which culminates in the girl’s agree- ing to wed just to escape from th authority of her guardian. There is an agreement also that they will separate immediately after the cére- nsidering that “The Man ment” is an Elinor Glyn story, it can well be imagined that the agreement did not go through precisely as planned. Hectic jazz parties, wild nights on a luxurious yacht and-all the typi- cal Glyn trimmings embellish the ac- tion. ~ plays the man, dnd Rod LaRocque the combination of Miss Dove and ald was younger .

Acting predominates. ~ “If I could make as much money painting or playing solitaire, I’d .prob- ably desert the stage. Acting gives mé enough money to feel independent, though. That's why I stay with it.” Macdonald, after amassing a small fortune in pictures, decided in 1923 to produce independently. This ven- ture almost ended in bankruptcy. But he says he didn’t get wise until recently when he lost on another ven- ture.. A glib salesman talked him and O’Brien into invésting in a private yacht club. It didn’t turn out as it should and the two actors dropped $10,000 each. “What you heed is a business man- ager,” some one suggested to Mac- donald. : “I've got one,” he replied. “I've been married 22 years.

DALY ARLIER this season than last, Poli’s Theater opens on Labor Day. The first attraction marks the revival of Grant Mitchell's comedy, “A Tailor Made Man.” From Philadelphia, where the play is now located, George H. At- kinson, one of the old-time troupers of show business, writes that the Mitchell organization is built along the lines of the celebrated Winthrop. Ames Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Company. While the Grant Mitchell outfit is not made up of song birds, the troupe is run along repertoire lines. This is an original idea, -according to Mr. Atkinson; original, at least, to the legitimate theater, though sgomewhere along the line some one, at some time, must have had a series of plays in projection; such as this. Mr. Atkinson admits this much, to-wit: “No doubt producing managers have, from time to time, had some similar scheme in the backs of their heads; the execution of a plan to introduce a star and supporting company in a series of standardized plays. Grant Mitchell and associated players are primed for the fray. They are trained to present any one of a group of comedies, namely, “A Tailor Made Man,” “It Pays to Adver- tise,” “The Whole Town’s Talking’ and “The Champion,”’ comedies in which Mr. Mitchell has appeared the past seasons, upon occasion, and extending over a transcontinental tour of 30 or 40 weeks, The company {s equipped scenically and in costuming so that the four plays may be presented for four consecutive nights if necessary. This, of course, has entailed heavy expenditure, for the services of a numerous company are required for the presentation of this group of plays. However, in the appointment of the various members of the numerous parts it so happens, likely by design, that even in matters theatric there may be an observance of economics. The services of the entire company are needed in the presentation of “A Tailor Made Man,’ the only bill of the group which will be presented in Washington.’ In that event all the members of the company will be assigned to their different roles in this famous comedy, and at work, though in this company are individuals who can step into the roles of any of the other three comedies and give a creditable per- formance, at a moment’s notice. The notion to organize such a company was cradled in Philadel- ‘phia this summer when Grant Mitchell was invited to the Quaker City to’ appear as the visiting star in this group of his successes presented by a summer stock company. His great success there, quite beyond the hope of the most sanguine, inspired W. R. Kane, the promoter of the stock company, with the project of organizing a road company with Mr. Mitchell at the head and the entire country for his stage. “Grant Mitchell has visited Washington season to season, in These visitations have extended over a period of twelve to fifteen years. .In this time he has been identified with a se- ries of comedies that have been so closely interwoven with his individ- uality that the term ‘“‘Mitchellesque’”’ might be used in giving a true In recent seasons he played the leading parts in “Baby Cyclone’”’ and “The Whole Town’s Talking,” but the new gen- eration will hardly recall “A Tailor Made Man,”’’ in which he made his first marked success fourteen years ago. ‘ “It is to the new generation that star and producer must appeal, quite confident that the older theatergoers will again avail them- selves of the opportunity of getting a thrill in witnessing revivals of these comedy classics of their younger years. With this end in mind a sane scale of prices has been. fixed. Principally because of peculiar economic conditions of the legitimate theater the younger people have strayed from the higher entertain- ents, many believe. The spoken drama is really the novel amuse- ment of these times, especially to the younger people. .Their curiosity is piqued. They avail themselves of a chance to see a real play when and if they get the price of admission. In other words, the spoken drama to the younger generation is just as much of a novelty as the film was when introduced some twenty-odd years ago. At this time there are hundreds of thousands of young, Americans who are familiar with the movies and talkies, but who have never stepped within the portals of a legitimate thea- ter. There is something in there which they are anxious to see. It is a wonderland. There'are no galleries where they may go for 10 or 25 cents, as in the olden days, and for some reason even a balcony seat is taboo, for a false pride; a complex of the times, has imbued the modern theatergoer with the whimsy that he or she must sit in an orchestra seat or not sit at all. These are the opinions of old show men. The drama of articulate speech must go on, says George Atkinson, but to live it must have the support of the younger generation. It is the opinion, also, of Mr. Mitchell that there must be a demand for clean, wholesome plays, that the very tenor of the times, the supremacy of crime and the “law’s delay,”’ the repetition of these in the daily press must create such a demand, for the very reason that lawlessness, and the news of lawlessness, is no longer a novelty. Then again, if the younger generation is really as black as it has been painted, which is a misconception to Mr. Mitchell’s mind, it must needs be a recreation for the young people to get in an atmosphere that may have some semblance of wholesomeness. Well, it all sounds interesting, any way. 7 * * + A FTER Grant Mitchell starts the ball a-rolling, getting the new season under way at Poli’s next week, T. D.

Poli’s will also be the home of the concert series spon- sored by Mrs. Wilson Greene and of the annual appearance of the Metropolitan Opera Company. A return visit of the popular German Opera Company is also anticipated. HEN the festivities start at Poli’s, the lobby aglow with carna- tions and daffodils, Mr. Bonniville in his best bib and tucker, there will be an old familiar figure absent from the picture. William Preston, Hendley, advertising agent and doorman at the old theater, was gathered to his fathers one day. last week. Man and boy, Bill Hendley was connected with the old Avenue playho some quarter of a century. He went there first when) it was Albaugh’s Grand Opera House, remained through its regime as Chase’s, the home of polite vaudeville, and stood guardian over the portals long after it became Poli’s. Under one management or another, Bill Hendley managed to become a fixture in the local theater. When the hand of fate struck him'a blow several years ago, all theaterdom paid tribute to the popularity of this man. Bill Hendley is gone, but there are those who believe his spirit, a genial one ever, will hover always over the old playhouse he loved. ANN CARIO, leading lady, with “Girls in Blue,” opening attrac- tion at the Gayety this week. SNAPPY SHOW AT THE GAYETY The “Girls in Blue,” headed by Ann Corio, is. the current attraction at the Gayety Theater this week. This is the entertainment that was one of the three leading offerings on the Mutual circuit last season, and while liberal changes have been made in the book and production, some of the best points of the previous show have been enhanced and elaborated upon, news scenes inserted, &c. Miss Corio’s interesting dances have been retained in their entirety, with three new stepping interludes sprinkled through the action. “Action” is the proper word for anything pertaining to Miss Corie, for her tireless activi- ties set a speed pace hard to equal. The supporting cast is large, and unusually fine, among whom are listed Hap Breyer, the always funny tramp cheracter; the rotund and mirth-creating Chuck Callahan, him- self an eccentric funster of rare en- tertaining qualities; Lew Petel, a splendid straight man who is in al- most all of the scenes; brown tressed Jean Gaskell, prima donna extra- ordinary; Buddie Nichols, the restless blond soubret number leader; Bobby Faye, who comes to Mutual heralded as an exceptionally talented juvenile lead, and Vic Gesele, an ingenue who is in evidence throughout the pro- ceedings. The attractive chorus con- sists of young girls personally selected by Miss Corio. Labor Day Soon. It is difficult to realize that Labor Day ts “around the corner,” but Manager Schloss, of Glen Echo, well aware of its proximity, has been busy as the proverbial bee in arranging everything for the comfort and con- venience of his guests, the number arriving at the park on Labor Day always excéeding his fondest expecta- tions. Every amusement device is rolling along with well diled ef- ficlency, and all hands, including the skipper, are preparing to maintain the reputation of the park for Southern hospitality. Another Beauty. In Ann Corio, who appears at the head of her ewn big Mutual enter- tainment, “Girls in Blue,” at the Gayety Theater, this week, local bur- lesque fans will see the gorgeous bru- net beauty who was elected by Earl Carroll to take the place of Dorothy Knapp, “the most beautiful show girl in the world” but who was prevented from joining the Carroll “Vanities” cast by a contract with the Mutual executives. VETERAN CAST LENDS LUSTER TO FILM PLAY The motion picture is no longer the vehicle of youth. A few years ago youngsters were at a premium, but when the pictures found their voice, the stage player, ripe in experience, found it his own distinct medium. Por instance, in the most sensa- tional talking picture drama hit in the brief history of the new art, only one young player appears. The ene-. tire cast, and one of the greatest acting casts ever assembled in a play, are all people of theater experience. Such is “Madame X,” now playing at Loew's Columbia Theater, Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer’s all-talking filmiza- tion based on the famous stage play. With Ruth Chatterton, famous stage star, in the title role, and Lionel Bar- rymore equally famous stage artist and screen celebrity, forsaking his calling of actor to be director, the cast of the great production is entirely a cast of thiose who have passed the milestones of youth. Many, famous histories are con- tained in this great cast. Miss Chatterton, for instance, is one whose name is traditional on the stage. In “Come Out of the Kitchen,” “La Tendresse,” “Moonlight and Honeysuckle” ahd other dramatic productions, she has given the Eng- lish-speaking stage some of its greatest successes and is today held to be one of the greatest modern emotional actresses. In the role that Sarah Bernhardt first gave the world, that of the ill-fated “Madame -- Williams and his excellent orchestra are attracting dancers nightly, whe-e this form of enjoyment may be in- dulged in on week nights from 8:30 until 11:30 p. m. Already the man- agement is making plans to take care of the huge crowds that are certain to visit the park over Labor Day. Marshall Hall. Located in a historic spot on the Potomac, and reached by a sail aboard the steamer Charles Macalester, is Washington’s oldest down-the-river resort, Marshall Hall. Picnic groves with tables, benches, playgrounds for the children, and cool water are all available for all-day and evening family outings, while there are many amusement features to enter- tain every member of the family. Pree dancing in the pavilion, rides in the airplane swing, roller coaster, etc., are other attractions. The steamer Charles: Macalester makes three tri daily to Marshall Hall, leaving the Seventh street wharf at 10 a. m., 2:30 and 6:45 p. m. On Sundays the morning trip is made at 10:30 a. m. r Coming Attractions Poli’s is scheduled to open Mon- day, September 2, with - Grant Mitchell in “A Tailor Made Man,” this star and attraction evidently inaugurating the beginning of the legitimate theatrical season in this city for 1929-30. Mr. Mitchell will be surrounded by a competent cast and will visit this city following an engagement in Philadelphia. What has been designated as one of the fastest shows on the Mutual wheel will be next week’s attraction at the Gayety Theater. “Hello Paree” is the title of the attraction, and it is a swiftly moving Nilariously funny show, with Mildred Franklin and Lee Hickman, the featured members of 2 tee Rate eee et he ae Be ane ete ee Wreyourny, tanphone Pate one Talk- t Picture DELICIOUS!

Camera men will also be RIALTO OPENS | IN A BIG WAY . FRIDAY NIGHT The reopening of the Rialto Thea- the premier local showing of the screen version of the Philip Dunning- George Abbott stage success, “Broad- way,” promises to be an outstanding picture and society event, inasmuch as many persons prominent in the social world will be patrons for the occasion. Manager Carrier has: arranged for broadcasting the names of the promi- nent personages attending the open- ing performance. The “mike” will be stationed in the foyer of the theater after the manner of Hollywood and Broadway first nights. The names of persons prominent in civic and social circles will be broadcast as they enter in attendance to make moving pic- tures of the notables, which will be shown at the Rialto at a future date. “Broadway” proved a sensational stage success and actually ran on Broadway for almost two years. The play, it is said, has been immeasurably heightened in entertainment value by the broader possibilities of the screen. It was directed by Paul Fejos under the supervision of Carl Laemmle, jr., and was made on an elaborate scale at a cost of $1,500,000. Much of the action is laid in a night club. The interior is said to be the most strik- ing scene of the year. The decora- tions and the general arrangements and the lighting of this set have set new standards in cinematography. Against its bizarre and modernis- tic backgrounds a chorus of 60 trained dancers put on a show that has no. equal in the most gilded New York night club. The story of “Broadway” contrasts the romance of a boy and a girl, Roy Lane and Billie Moore, played by Glenn Tryon and Myrna Kennedy. Steve Crandall, the “liquor king,” 1s played by Robert Ellis. How Pearl, the “belle of Broadway,” avenges the murder of her gangster sweetheart, and how Dan McCorn, the “white” cop of the night-club belt, plays straight forms the thrilling climax. Pearl’s powerful role is en- acted by Evelyn Brent, and both Thomas Jackson and Paul Porcasi, who play the detective and the night club proprietor, respectively, create for the screen the same characteriza- tions which they played throughout the New York stage run.

MAY EXCHANGE GERMAN PROGRAMS Conference in New York Dis- cusses Possibilities in Broadcast. EXPERIMENTS TO BEGIN Experiments in interchange of ra- dio programs between the United States and Germany will begin im- mediately. A definite working sched- ule has been arranged following a series of conferences in New York last week between a group of German radio officials and executives of the National Broadcasting Company. The German delegation consisted of Willy Steinkopf, a member of the Ways and means committee of the Reichstag; Dr. Kurt Magnus, director of the Reichs Rundfunk Gesellschaft (centrolling company of all German broadcasting); Hans Bodenstadt, gen- eral director of the North German Broadcasting Corporation, and Fried- erich Blonck, chairman of the execu- tive committee of the latter organ- ization. M. H,- Aylesworth, president; W. Elwood, vice president, and C. W. Horn, general engineer, represented the National Broadcasting Company. Came on the Bremen. The German delegates reached the United States July 22 aboard the mew German liner Bremen. They eame to this country for the express purpose of making a survey of broad- cast possibilities on this side of the Atlantic, with a view of beginning arrangements for a series of rebroad- casting experiments. All four visitors expressed deep ap- preciation at the radio system in this country. In addition to exten- sive tours of inspection through the New York studios of the National Broadcasting Company, the delegates visited the Washington and Chicago quarters of the company, KDKA of the Westinghouse Electric & Manu- facturing Co. at East Pittsburgh and WGY of the General Electric Co. at Schenectady. The ease with which programs are transmitted to all parts of the United States simultaneously came in for especial praise from the vis- itors. Most European countries, they pointed out, are not 80 well equipped for transferring programs great dis- tances. All forms of communication in the United States proved of interest to Herr Steinkopf, the ways and means committee member. In addition to his radio activities he managed time for a visit to the New York general postoffice and the headquarters of the big American communication agencies. however, has been of radio broadcasting, the real object of their visit. They watch- ed with great interest the result of the speech by Dr. Hugo Eckener, commander of the Graf Zeppelin, who broadcast a special message to his people at home when the huge craft arrived at the U. S. Naval Air Station, at Lakehurst, N. J., recently. Spoke to Germany. In addition, three of the visitors also spoke to.their associates in Ger- many shortly after their arrival here. These talks, like that of Dr. Eckener, were broadcast by the National Broadcasting Company in association with the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Co. and the General Electric Co. through shortwave trans- mitters at East Pittsburgh and Sche- nectady. The types of programs from Ger- many which would find American in- terest, and those from America which- would be desirable in Ger- many, were subject to much discus- sion by the broadcasting officials. In Germany, it was pointed out, radio programs include more exten- sive productions of serious musical compositions. Frequently several days are devoted to music festivals, dedicated to the works of German com posers. Operatic ‘works and symphonic productions are given in great detail, and frequent “pick-ups” are made from theaters, music halls and out- of-door stadiums. The German delegation manifested chief interest in American programs of typically American nature. They were intrigued by what they termed the “folk music” of the United States, mostly that of Negro spir- | ituals. John Transmission Found Better in America Toscanini, who is one of the high- est paid orchestra conductors in the world, while touring Europe recently with the La Scala Company, was asked in Vienna why he refused to allow broadcasting of the performances of Verdi's “Falstaff” and Donizetti's “Lucia de Lammermoor.” He replied: “I regard radio as a classical discovery and, in America, I directed concerts which were thus transmitted to a wider public. But the fact is that in Amerca the qual- ity of radio transmission is incompa- rably higher than in Europe and per- mits of an almost unimpaired pro-| jection.” a Short Waves Thomas A.

Instruments on the | for communication with t mall routes OFF THE ANTENNA By ROBERT D. HEINL ITTSBURGH, PA., Aug. 24.—An impression was gained in a p visit to the Westinghouse plant that distinct progress is being made in the broadcasting of motion pictures. Motion and still pictures are being sent daily from the television studio in Homestead works, thence by wire 4 miles to the KDKA transmitting station and broadcast from there to the farm, as the short wave receiving sta- tion is known, about 6 miles northeast. Ordinary moving picture films are used and such subjects being shown as “‘Krazy Kat’? and Pathe current news events. It was ex- plained that motion pictures were chosen because they are more dif- ficult to broadcast than actual objects. However, at the Homestead television studios, scanning devices are also available for the broad- casting of living subjects. A television studio is indeed a curious looking place and with its bright lights not unlike a moving picture studio. Formerly because of the makeshift apparatus, an observer was constantly reminded of the experimental nature of television but there is little of this in evidence at Pittsburgh. The transmitting apparatus is of a substantial character and finished in appearance. The reels whirl in the same businesslike way as for a regular motion picture and with coatless operators the scene presented in the tele- vision studio is similar to one so frequently seen in the projection booth of an ordinary movie theater. ; . * . Likewise there is the air of a going concern at the receiving end. Not a lot of loose junk wired together but the apparatus compactly assembled on a table and much resembling a camera outfit about the size a professional photographer uses. Also a thing one rarely sees in an experimental laboratory—the floor was neatly swept. View- ing a television picture recalis vividly the way we used to look at old-time motion pictures in a kinetoscope excepting that here in a darkened room one sees the picture by peering into a long cylinder sometimes standing as far as 5 feet back to get the right focus. The moving pictures being broadcast at Pittsburgh are as yet small, about 3 by 4 inches in size but larger than the Bell telephone tele- vision pictures being sent over wires in color which are only as big a8 a postage stamp. In both the Westinghouse and the Bell demon- strations, however, the details of the pictures are surprisingly sharp and distinct. “If we make as much improvement in the next six months in broadcasting motion pictures as we have in the past six,” a Westing- house official remarked, ‘“‘we will really be able to report progress, As soon as we get one thing licked we go after the next.” Let not the reader gather from this that any definite time has been set when the last thing will be “licked’’ or when we may expect to receive regular television broadcasts into our homes. It may be just around the corner and again it may be years. At the moment re- search is being carried on along two lines. The first is perfecting quality of the transmitted picture and the second is the effort being made by radio manufacturers to design a receiver or an attachment to go on radio sets, capable of receiving broadcast pictures and sell- ing at a price within the reach of the general public. - * « a An unusual thing noted at the pioneer station KDKA, soon to be moved to its new location on a high plateau at Saxonburg, Pa., was the use of wooden poles instead of steel masts to support the an- tenna. The reason for this is that wood does not absorb radio Strength as does steel. The word ‘‘pioneer”’ is used with hesitancy in connection with KDKA inasmuch as station WWJ at Detroit also lays claim to this distinction. “Station WWJ was the first to begin broadcasting on a regular schedule of program features,” declared Robert L. Kelly, manager of WWJ. “This schedule was printed in the Detroit News, the first newspaper to print radio programs and the first to have a radio sec- tion. WWJ began its regular service in August of 1920. ‘““WWdJ was the first newspaper radio station, too, and it was the first to broadcast a symphony orchestra, a church ceremony, and the first to establish a service to assist the police to locate missing per- sons and apprehend criminals. “WWJ was the first station to broadcast messages and news bulle- tins into a storm-stricken territory where telephone and telegraph wires were down.’”’ On the other hand, KDKA claims to be the oldest station by reason of its having been given the first governmental license by the De- partment of Commerce. Although this license was granted October 22, 1920, it was not until November 2 that the station inaugurated its first general broadcasting, when it broadcast the returns of the Harding-Cox presidential election. A further claim is that Dr. Frank Conrad, KDKA’s “grand old man” (who today doesn’t look to be over 60), was fortified by a Navy license from his home in Pittsburgh long before any one else in this country. . a & * There has been a noticeable improvement in the quality of broad- casting of KDKA. It is now unquestionably as fine, if not the finest, as any station in the country, As heard in Pittsburgh, with an up-to- date récetving set, the various orchestral instruments are reproduced with faithfulness seldom heard. Bass notes are brought out so distinctly that it suggests, if other stations are to keep pace with KDKA and receiving sets continue to improve, there will have to be different placing of the drums and 4 deeper toned instruments to keep them from being heard out of their proportion or of dominating the orchestra. There has been quite a controversy as to whether or not the lower notes of an orchestra can be broadcast, but it would seem that KDKA could do it inasmuch as it is now said to broadcast notes as low as 30 cycles. ™ e * 2 Quite tantalizing at Westinghouse was getting a peep at the new 100,000-watt tubes, said to be the world’s largest, which are in the making for the new KDKA and KYW stations without being permit- ted to go into details regarding their construction or possibilities. They look to be about 8 feet in length and are the first to have water- cooled: grids. sae So intricate is the process of manufacture that though a new tube is started every week, the net result is only about two completed tubes a month. So it may be sometime before the, required six are completed for the new KYW station at Chicago and twelve for the new KDKA station near Pittsburgh. Although the Westinghouse | people are mum as clams regarding these great new tubes, it is be- | lieved when the facts are known about them they may prove a sensa- tion in the radio world. Rumor hath it that instead of 100,000 watts, tests have shown that they are capable of 150,000 watts power. * * © a. Not one motorst in a thousand passing through the beautiful countryside in which the KDKA short-wave receivfng station is lo- broadcast by cated outside of Pittsburgh doubtless has even an inkling of the won- derful things being accomplished by what to them is evidently a clump of curiously grouped and oddly wired telegraph poles. If the wonders of this station were known to passerby, it would take a _policeman.to keep traffic moving and to keep a rush of visitors out | of the place. | For here is one of the world’s premier Nebentow posts. ' Just as the short-wave transmitters at KDKA have been heard all over the world, the KDKA listeners from this vantage point seem to be able to hear everything in the world. They picked up the Graft Zeppelin‘s signals with ease. It is commonplace for them to pick up the London end of a trans- atlantic telephone conversation, for instance, Another time they tune in on an Australian station, and so on. Their antenna, along with those of WJZ and WGY, are used in connection with the RCA overseas rebroadcasts. plane will indicate to the pilot whether or not he is on the right course. islands, although it will serve also as an emerge plant for messages to Australia and in connection with the short wave stations in the United Kingdom A new wireless station will be at certain hours. ‘erected soon by the New Zealand government on the Tinakori Hills, the marvels of radio, Wellington, at a cost of $30,000.

To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: Last Saturday morning, George F. Hicks, of Station WRC, stepped before the microphone at Madison, Va., and handled the nation-wide broadcast of the ceremonies in honor of President Hoover like a veteran. It was a job worthy of a McNamee or a Cross and I would like him to know, through your column, that at least one listener appreciated it. His voice is natural, unaffected and charming. His job evidently atill holds enough terrors to deflate his ego occasionally, and I hope that it will continue to terrorize him if that will keep him the unspoiled and delighted announcer he is now. With Mr. Hicks at WRC, the Na- tional Broadcasting Co. should not feel it essential to send one of the high moguls of announcing from New York every time there is a difficult broadcast originating here. Let us hear Hicks more often. . A LISTENER. August 19, Wants Slumber Hour Unbroken, To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: It is quite all right to broad- cast such features as “Amos ‘n’ Andy” for listeners who like that sort of entertainment but why was it necessary to break into the per- fectly good Hour of Slumber Music for the time for this broadcast? The Slumber Hour has always been one of your best offerings and it is rather a pity to cut into that when there are sO many less worth-while features. August 19. H.

Hicks, an of the national advisory © ian. for aeronautics at Langley Field, Va., has made the discovery that blotting - per embodies the p istics for the most effective reproduc- of bioctting paper in iere diaphragm of ot atrustion res in a a iliantel 94° re- production of the sound- ucing impulses im upon it without distortion, rattling, rippling or the formation of parasitic vibrations, After this discoverey had been made, like in many other important cases, the reason for the superiority of blotting paper as diaphragm ma- terial became rather simple. Blot- ting paper has no period of vibration of its own, and, therefore possesses the minimum capacity for creating audible sound by = self-vibration. Patents are pending covering these diaphragms and the structural de- tails of the same, and the United States has been granted licenses un- der these patents by Mr. Hicks, who is at present representing the United States at the Seville Exposition in Spain. Cc. Hugh Durty, of Miami, Fla., spe- cial assistant to the Attorney Gen~ eral, Department of Justice, and perf- sonal attorney for Mr. Hicks, is co- operating with the patents section of the Air Corps in the matter of the patent protection. New System Developed. Independent research carried on by Mr. Duffy in the field of loud-speaker diaphragm-drive systems for these and other diaphragms has resulted in the development of a twin-motor triple-circuit diaphragm-drive sys- tem which appears to have opened up a new field in loud-speaker de- sign. The motors are arranged one above the other. In one of the cir- cults, the two motors are connected in reverse of parallel, which means that they are in opposite phase. A positive impulse delivered by one mo- tor on the diaphragm is accompanied by a simultaneous negative impulse delivered by the other motor on the diaphragm. When one motor is pushing on one-half of the diaphragm, the other motor is. simultaneously pulling on the other half. The result is an en- tirely mew accoustical phenomenon. The motors operating in op te phase on the diaphragm practically eliminate all audible low frequencies, resonance and overtones, while at the same time the definition of the SER: and high. frequencies is n ° w are reproduced with a clear- ness. and sharpness of definition not heretofore attained. @ Phase of Motors Changed. When vocal or instrumental music is to be reproduced, the phase of the motors are instantly changed by pushing a button. This connects the two motors in a parallel circuit. The impulses of the motors on the dia- phragm are now in unison: They = now working together instead of oppositely as just described.

By WILLIAM ULLMAN, Now that new car announcements, the first contributions to the 1930 motor cars, are making their effer- vescent appearances, the motorist’s mind begins to explore the future. What, he asks himself, do these early 1930s forecast? No one, of course, can answer that | has | This year, it is| Yet | ‘of automobiles admit that 1929 has 'been something of a queer question precisely. It been an easy one. much more difficult than ever. there are numerous hints and rumors. From these, with a fairly close ac- quaintance with the history of those to whom they relate, the ever-busy prophets are making their ever-pres- ent deductions. These include, at the moment, the following That there will be more straight eights in the price class that once was the stronghold of the six. That no one would be surprised if one new V-eight made its appearance early in 1930. That the talk of a twelve-cylinder car being so voluminous there must be some truth in it. It is an abso- lute certainty and is coming from the plant of one of the finest big car makers of the moment, some insist. That, while it is unlikely that there will be an immediate rush in that direction, the two front-drive cars of the moment may be supplemented by one or two more early next year. never Four-Speed Transmission. That three or four more converts to the four-speed transmission are | virtually assured. That the chassis, rather than the body, is going to be the object of the designer's greatest attention in many laboratories now experimenting with 1930 products. That silence will be further en- hanced through the more advanced use of rubber in various parts of the chassis. That specialists seeking valiantly and vigorously to produce improved braking systems may see their efforts climaxed by comparatively early suc- cess. That the engine, already the most highly developed part of the car, is slated to stand pretty much as it Is while other features are brought to proportionately the same high level of engineering. That down-draft carburetion, con- siderably improved over its first form, may be more generally em- ployed. That the differential will get at- tention designed to silence the gears through different tooth shape and to improve lubrication. That steering will be the object of further research with a view to reducing wheel fight and wheel wob- ble. That double breaker distributors will be more adopted to increase the efficiency of the ignition system which must be efficient in these days of high speed, high compression engines. Front Axle is Simple. That the front axle to which fo end of research has been devoted lately will cause fewer complications to driving ease. That front-wheel alignment will be less of a problem by the time the 1930s appear en masse. | prophets. The list of prophecies, long (as it is, That sloping windshields will be more generally used as an antidote to light glare. Very busy individuals, these does not include everything that is likely to happen between the introduction of the first 1930 cars and the coming of the larger group, a6 always, in January. Apart from what the prophets say, but having a bearing upon the fu- ture of the tindustry’s products, those engaged in the manufacture year. True, they admit, the industry has enjoyed the greatest production anda sales period in its history thus far during the year. Undoubtgdly the final balancing of the books will show it to have established new records. Still, it has been a queer year. Things that used to have specific values now are more difficult to ap- praise. Values and = significances, they say, have shifted. This fact is cited as explaining several frequent changes in policy in some companies regarding changes to be incorporated in the forthcoming models. With regard to the trend toward larger engines, that is, engines of eight and even twelve cylinders where sixes and eights previously bloomed, the contest trend toward refinement in the last four or five years has given smaller engines, in less expensive cars, greatly improved performance. To give still better performance, many believe, it will pay to step into the multi-cylinder field. Will Stimulate Interest. As to the transmission change, the adoption of the four-speed transmis- sion by others than the six present users, it is felt that this innovation in the larger members of certain medium-priced products will stimu- late considerable interest. The in- ternal gear transmission with four forward speeds has been perfected to a point where it is constantly adding new users. The prophets, with several car makers known to be look- ing over this type of gearset, seem entirely safe in assuming that still others will become converted before 1930. Of the other prophecies, most of which deals with the refinements of 1929, that which declares greater engineering attention will be focused upon the chassis is among the most interesting. Heretofore, it ls pointed out, such chassis units as have been markedly improved owe their progress to parts makers in very large degree. The manufac- turer has been exceptionally busy with engine development and body design. Now, it is pointed out, he is satis- fied with the former and not ées- pecially desirous of doing anything more.with the latter. So, he is di- recting his attention to such fea- tures as brakes, steering, spring suspension, the elimination of vibra- tion, the further development of silence, improved chassis lubrication, shock absorbers, and the like. Just what form the improvements to be incorporated in these features will take, the most versatile prophet could not say. However, they are confidently expected and the motor enthusiast looking forward to 1930 has the prophet’s word for it. In the meantime, the 1929 car goes on selling because many do not be- lieve it can be greatly improved. Runs in the Hose. If we may take the word of the expert for it—and after ali, he ought to know—one of the most abused, imposed-upon parts of any automobile are the hose connections. “Tl bet I can mention a part of your car, an important part, that you never have thought of at all,” said an engineer friend of Bob's at the dinner table. His statement came in answer to my remark that I tried to take very good care of the car. “All right, mame the part,’ I took his challenge. “The hose connections between the engine and radiator,” he replied. “You're right, but at the same time you are wrong,” I shot back at him. “Why should one think of the hose connections? They never wear out, but just keep plugging away time without end.” “That’s just where you and all other motorists who forget the hose connections go wrong. That expres- sion of yours ‘keep plugging away’ was unfortunate, too. The hose con- nections, after some use, keep plug- ging all right, but what they plug is the radiator. The inside lining becomes cracked and shredded. Pieces are drawn into the header, or top of the radiator, thence down into the core. When this happens, as it often does, a new radiator is the answer. That is a lot more costly than new radiator hose.” “Well,” I broke in, “how often should I buy new hose for the radi- ator?” “I know,” said the engineer, “you're expecting me to say every year, every 10,000 miles or some- thing like that, so you can accuse me of being a literal-minded con- formist to engineering tenets. Well, must disappoint you. I don’t know how often the hose connec- tions on your particular car should be replaced. It is not a matter of Motoring With Mary Every Revolution of the Engine Grinds Oat Wisdom for the Woman Who Drives a Car, One of Them Has Discovered. By MARY JANE MOORE time, but. of condition. The hose should be replaced when it is dried out, soft or spongy. Depending upon the kind of hose, the conditions of car operation, the solution used in the cooling system, the connections may dry out, get soft, or spongy, crack or something else in six months, Or it might taken a year and a half or two years. “The point I'd like #> make is that any sensible program of car care will include periodic inspection of the hose connections. “It is so easy to overlook this fact. I was riding one time with an en- gineering school friend of mine whose associations always have been auto- motive. His car was rather an old one, but he prided himself on its condition. He had occasion to do s0 for, despite its years, it ran beauti- fully. It had lots of power and speed. It made no noise, to speak of, at least. “Well, we got on a mountain road that met every specification of the road you would not want anything to happen on. In our case it $ap- pened just the same. “All of a sudden, right in the mid- dle of a long pull, there was a hiss- ing noise and steam rolled out from under the hood. The hose connec- tions had burst. There we were with an empty cooling system, miles from a repair shop, and no one else in sight. Hours later we got a tow into a small town. “Those things, the clogging of the radiator and the bursting of the hose, are a bit unusual, I'll admit. The commonest sin of the worn and frayed hose connection is causing overheating, which, in turn, causes many other troubles. “By the way, what brought this up was that Bob had to buy two new connections on our way out here tonight.” Apparently there was nothing to say. I said exactly that.

ROUTE EASILY REACHED Many of the. beauties and points of interest in West Virginia may be enjoyed by the :notorist who follows the Northwestern turnpike, U. 5S. Route No. 50. They are within easy reach of the Washington motorist, who may enter the State by following Route 50 through Fairfax to Win- chester and thence to Clarksburg and Parkersburg. At Parkersburg two famous high- ways, the Northwestern turnpike and the Staunton-Parkersburg pike, had their western terminals in early days and played an important part in the settlement of western Virginia and the Northwest Territory. Today the junc- tion of U. 8S. 50, extending from Washington to “he Pacific, and U. 8S. No. 21 from the lakes to Florida makes Parkersburg as important from the tourist standpoint as it was to the pioneers of a century or more past. The Northwestern turnpike, oF that section of U. 8S. 50 extending from Parkersburg to Winchester, is typical of those early roads which foi- lowed the “traces” of white trapper and pioneer hunter of the trail of Indian and buffalo, and which gradu- ally developed into modern highways. Echo of Great Tragedy. Parkersburg, where the Little Kanawha empties into the Ohio, once Neals Station, like so many other West Virginia cities, grew up around a frontier outpost. The city was in- corporated in 1810 and grew slowly until recent years when the develop- ment of some large industries changed Parkersburg into a hustling city along the Ohio. On the Ohio River a short distance south of the city lies Blennerhassett Island, on which once stood the man- sion of Harmon Blennerhassett. Here Blennerhassett brought his young bride fromi England and lived, loved and dreamed. Here with his friend, Asron Burr, plans were laid for an empire in the great Southwest. For these plans Burr was arrested on a charge Of treason. Blennerhassett was ruined along with Burr, and fire and flood destroyed the palatial home. But. the flavor of romance will remain there forever. Plans have been con- sidered to preserve this island and maintain it as a State park, and some.State clubs are considering the reconstruction and restoration of the mansion and its furnishings. But in any case the island is an emerald gem of rare beauty on the blue expanse of the Ohio. Rich Farming Lands. Wood County, of which Parkers- burg is county seat, and its neighbor- ing counties are rich agricultural communities. Gas and oil brought wealth to many farm owners, far in excess Of any the riches to be gained by farming. Ritchie and Doddridge Counties lie to the east. The old inn at Pennshoro, built in SR nt NN Green as Color Has Many Ups and Downs After being accused for these many months of being the most “off again, On again” shade among automobile finishes, black appears to be entirely innocent. Green is the real chame- leon, according to the latest statistics. There was a time when green indexed as high as 350, another when it got as low as 53. Black, to give credit where credit is due, never got so bad as that. A lot of just casual observers owe it an apology, it would seem. When to Retire Used Tire. Don’t let the tire that is “down to the fabric” go any further. Re- placing it, in service, with the spare or with a new tire is one way of turning a few days or few weeks’ usefulness into a period of several months Maximum Speed Limit Is Eliminated in Iowa And now, Iowa, the Hawkeye State joins her Midwest neighbors, Michi- gan and Indiana, in removing the arbitrary maximum speed limit and putting it definitely up to the in- dividual driver to proceed safely re- gardiess of where the speedometer thay be pointing. Connecticut was the first State to take such a step. Michigan was the second. Indiana and Tennessee joined the procession. Now comes Iowa. “Next?” says the interested motor- ist observing the trend. Sign Causes Motorist’s Arrest. “Don't shoot, I'm no bootlegger,” read the sign on the back of the car. The officer, a traffic squad mem- ber, did not shoot. However, he ar- rested the offending motorist for having the sign attached to the car. 24-Hour __ (i KT TAG One wy PARTS and SERVICE Ourisman-Chevrolet 610-616 H St. N.E.

CARMODY. The most vivid chapter yet in man’s endless experiment with pure speed— that is the meaning given to the Schneider Cup races which will be run at Cowes, England, on Septem- ber 7. That the Schneider Trophy contest does represent man’s greatest success in his eternal effort to conquer time and space is clearly established. Out of it has grown a vehicle, or projec- tile, that will traverse space at a rate of 318 miles an hour. In the sixteen years that the contest has been held speeds have increased from 45.25 miles an hour to, very likely, 320 or 325 this year. When, in 1927, Flight Lieutenant S. N. Webster, of England, ed around the Lido at 281.488 miles an hour, the speed had ad- vanced 236 miles an hour in fourteen years. It was shortly thereafter that Maj. Mario de Bernhardi, Italy's entrant who failed to fin'sh in the actual race, took his tiny craft around the course at a rate of 318 miles an hour to establish a new official high-speed record . If the race ended with 318 miles an hour as the best mark of one of its entrants in 1927, where will the mark be when the winner roars across the finish over the Solent course next month? That question is asked by every one who recognizes that the race holds the answer to the eternal question: “How fast can man travel and sur- vive?” Made 318 Miles an Hour. The answer, of course, can not be foretold until the actual race. It known that one of the 1927 race planes was capable of 318 miles an hour. Since that time the world’s greatest engineering genius has been concentrated upon the task of get- ting more miles per hour. Every ad- ditional mile, however, is admitted to be harder to attain. It has been sought, in the four most interested nations, by means of greater power, cleaner design, reduced size and the like. These things give speed. How much? There are some things that governments zealously keep secret. That governments are concerned gives the Schneider Cup race & standing unique among competitive events. Peoples, it is pointed” out, compete in sporting events of many kinds, There are Olympic games, Davis Cup matches, which settle world’s tennis supremacy; Wal Cup matches between golfers of Va- rious nations, and the Lipton Cup for yachting supremacy. All these represent the competition of nation with nation, The government, howéver, is not involved as a government... Athletic associations, interested individuals and the like provide the financial backing. ‘. 4) a The Schneider Trophy contest is. different. It is government against government, with rivalry of the keen- a ¥! est as well as the cleanest. character, interestingly enough, was virtually thrust upon the event. It was not a race at all when it started. The “cup” never has been a cup. First Offered in 1913, When M. Jacques Schneider, of France, offered the trophy in 1913, he never foresaw it as provi the basis for such an event as will be flown over tr? Solent in 1929. At that time, there were no seaplanes worthy of the name, M. Schneider decided to.offer a trophy that might stimulate interest in the develop- ment of this type of aircraft. A serv- ice type of seaplane was the objective he sought. The trophy, which is not in the is shape of a cup, evoked a tremendous interest in seaplanes. It was not, however, the variety that the donor of the cup envisioned. Instead of centering attention upon service merit, safety, seaworthiness and the like, those who chose to compete for the trophy concentrated upon speed. It was inevitable that this should be ee ee ~ a Phe CONTINUED ON PAGE 8.

All com- mercial planes are equipped with tachometers. The instrument is one of their most important. * . 7 Dodge, not long ago, revealed that it took an hour and 39 minutes to make a complete car. In other fac- tories, it takes more. In still others, less. But, regardless of the time it takes to make a car, just think how long it takes to wear one out in the normal course of events! “ig . * * Ever since the air-cooled engine started to take the aviation field en- tirely to itself, most of the’ new en- gines of this type have followed the radial design. There have béen some few exceptions but not eufficiently numerous. to make much of an im- pression. The Franklin engine, which now is im process of development, however, is not going to be a radial. If an in-line engine can be cooled in. a car, it can be in a airplane, is the thought behind this new power plant. Aluminum is a handier metal for motor car makers then many realize. It is wtsed, for instance, in the Pontiac to eliminate piston pin hoises; which probably will seem doubly strange to those who remem- ber that one criticism of the first aluminum pistons was that they were noisy. A little plug of the metal stuck in the end of the Pontiat pin expands with engine heat and in- duces silence. Where should the clock be?

The Trew Motor Co. is headed by Joseph B. Trew, and is located at 1509-11 Fourteenth street northwest. This announcement is regarded as one of the most important develop- ments of the year in the local auto- motive trade since the Trew Motor Co. in addition to being a large and widely known organization also is one | of the oldest in the field here. Joseph B. Trew, president of the company, has been identified with the Washing- ton automotive trade sinte the early days of motoring. In making the announcement of the Trew Motor Co's. appointment as local distributors of the Dodge line, it was pointed out by Mr. Trew that 7 pletely comprehensive servicing will be at the disposal of own- ers and operators. This will apply to the entire Dodge line, from passenger cars to motor coaches and including trucks and buses.

Designers the four countries which prepared for of this year’s event—the United States, England, France and Italy—all point out that never was there a greater gain in speed than between the 1926 and 1927 races. Nearly 35 miles an hour was added to the pace of the competing craft In the brief twelve- month intervening. For the 1929 event, each country has had two years’ of preparation. Virtually every minute has been used in the most intensive and costly quest for speed in which mankind ever has indulged. Indicative of the cost of an entrant, though precise figures haye not been given by the various countries, is the $175,000 esti- mated cost of the American entry built in the naval aircraft factory. Details of the various planes have been withheld for the most part. It is known, however, that whereas 900 horsepower was the average in the 1927 planes, it will be closer to 1,200 this time with one or two entrants having more. Beneath the surface of things it is obvious that man has hurled his all into the effort to fiy 350 miles an hour—if he can. 88,009 Miles Flown Daily by U. S. Planes Air mail and passenger planes on the established aeria] routes are fiying 88,009 miles every 24 hours, an annual total mileage of 32,123,285 miles, ac- cording to a survey of the extent of ‘air transport made by the American Air Transport Association. The consolidated air passenger time- table which the association published | simultaneously with its survey shows that passenger carrying planes and those carrying both passengers and air mail account for the greater daily mileage, 61,025 miles. The balance is piled up by air mail lines which do not carry passengers on any, OF only a partial number, of their schedules. guaranteed. and we intend keeping it so. each one an outstanding value.

Sedan World’s Largest Aerial Camera Under Test The United States Army Air Corps at Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio, has just completed tests on the world’s largest aerial camera, known as the K-7A. This camera, developed to ob- tain large ground details from high altitudes, weighs 130 pounds. The picture it takes measures 9 to 18 inches. It carries a roll of film 150 feet long and 9% inches wide. Its operation is fully automatic, and it possesses an automatic registering device by which the elevation of the plane, the time, date and the aum- ber of the negative are noted on the film. This camera is electrically heated so that it will function at the below- zero temperatures of the highest al- The first photograph with the new camera was taken by G. A. Magnus, piloted by Lieut. J.

USED IN OCEAN TRAVEL The coordination of aviation ocean travel is discussed in the cur- rent issue of the Journal of the So- clety of Automotive Engineers, by Lieut. W. M. Fellers, U. & N., who recommends that ship-to-shore service with catapult launching be considered before a more ambitious one is at- tempted because of its relative sim- plicity, reliability, low cost and safety. The operation cf such a service for one year, Lieut Fellers seys, would enable those operating it to learn many things of value and to solve in advance many of the problems that would be cénfronted when the shore- to-ship service was started Planes can be catapulted, without adding in the least to the hazard of the operation, in any weather in which they can fly and under con- ditions that would render taki off from the water absolutely impracti- cable. A plane can leave a ship when weather conditions are not good pro- vided the weather ashore is fit for flying. Stresses induced in the plane by catapulting and the forces acting on passengers and crew are not exces- sive, according to Lieut. Fellers. It is necessary to provide for them, but the extra strength of structure is con- fined to a few members and has no appreciable effect on the plane’s per- formance. No discomfort attends a launching by catapult, but as an ex- perience it is not likely to be forgot- ten. The Navy catapults give an accel- eration between two and three times gravity, Lieut. Fellers continues. As @ result, the airplane starts from rest and reaches a speed approximating 60 miles per hour in less than 1% seconds. An _ inexpert automobile driver who races his engine and quickly lets the clutch in on first gear experiences an equal or greater acceleration, but only for the briefest moment, A catapult continues deliv- ering its push throughout the run and the sensation is unique. The ces- sation of horizontal acceleration at the end of the run produces almost as pronounced a sensation as the orig- inal one. Everything in the airplane, includ- ing the personnel, must be secured against relative backward. horizontal motion, but there is no discomfort and the whole action is over before one has much time to. consider his sensations or analyze his emotions. $ AND UPWARDS F.

Outdoor Operation Predicted for Dirigibles An ald to the development of air- ship operation to the point where dirigibles will be able to remain out for long periods and be moved into the hangar only for extensive re- pairs is the short or stub mast. “A stub mooring mast is the cen- tral piece of equipment, and a wheeled carriage is provided, to which the after-car of the airship is at- tached,” says Lieut. Comdr. C, E. Rosendahl, U:; S. N., in describing this equipment in detail. “The stern carriage travels around the mast on a circular track with the veering of the wind, supporting the stern of the ship to prevent it strik- ing the ground and holding it down against upward thrusts of air cur- rents. “The latest design of stub mast is extensible and has an upper tele- scopic portion that can be lowered out’ of the path of the ship when taking off. : A power winch is pro- vided at the base of the mast for drawing the nose of the ship to the mooring cone at the top of the mast. Pacilities for servicing the ship with fuel, water, helium and_ electricity are also provided in the base. “A mobile mooring mast now un- der construction will make possible the moving of an airship into and out of the hangar mainly by mechani- cal means, which will be safer and more economical than by man power.” Exaust Good Listening Post.

Not the least of these is that every one of them, with the possible exception of the endur- ance attempts, has been conceived in Washington and put into effect by the military forces of the United States. Endurance flying is an’ old stunt. The first enduradhce flight which was officially recognized as a world’s rec- ord was an astonishing hop of 21 seconds made by Santos Dumont in France in 1906. ° Since then, endur- ance fiiers@have slowly pushed their First Refueling Flight Done Long Before Question Mark. time ahead until, by refueling in mid- air, the record stands today at 420 hours 21 minutes and 30 seconds. But the notable fact is this: In each recent case the initiative was furnished by military airmen of the United States, and especially of the Army Air Corps. The nonrefueling endurance record stood at 24 hours 19 minutes and7 seconds on Qctober 5, 1922, where it had been hung by an American civilian team. - On that day, Lieute. Oakley G. Kelly and John M. Mat ready, of the Air Corps, took off from Rockwell Field, Coronado, Calif, on an attempted nonstop transcontinén- tal flight. Halted by fog over the Rocky ceive official recognition, beca fatied to comply with the rules long time. These :ame two Army pilots also started the nonstop transcontinental on which, before refueling came ng. Thirty-six minutes 2, 1923, Kelly and Macready took from Mitchel Field, Long Island, in the same single motored Fokker mon- Oplane- they had used in thelr én- durance flight. Twenty-six hours later, almost to the sécond, they landed at Rockwell Field, the firat aviators ever to make a norstop transcontinental flight. Thé difficulti¢és which beset these pioneers in théir underpowéred age may best be realized. by glancin an reek from Lieut. Macre story of the takeoff. “The old girl humbered across the field for what seemed like milés,” he said, “and finally lifted heréelf off, clearing the hangers by what séemed to me like inches. I had made up mg mind that there wasn’t @ chancé of our getting away, and was only hop- ing that Kelly would be able to take her over to those salt marshes along the edge of Long Island, where we might possibly get away with a safé landing with our heavy load. Well, I'll tell you, we ecraped along the hillsides and housétops with our Liberty motor running absolutely full power, and’ for hours we felt as though we could atick out our hands and grab a handful of daisies off the fields. We could gét only a few hun- dred feet altitude, no matter how we ‘stalled’ the plané to climb. The gradual lightening of our load as the big Liberty consumed 26 gal- lons an hour didn't help much, be- cause as we got farther West the altitude pf the country was increas- ing and we were apparéntly only about keeping pace with it. It wasn't until we were fiying over Arizona, and for the firat time found we could throttle our motor, that we felt sure we were going to make the trip successfully.” They made it successfully, all right, arid evér sincé planes have beén scur- rying back and forth across the con- tinent, consistently lowering thé record first set by these intrepid pilots of the Air Corps. But last January, when the Ques- tion Mark, another Army plane with an Army crew from Bolling Field, re- mained aloft 150 hours*40 minutés and 14 seconds, another furore of record-breaking was set loose. Few newspaper readers remember that refueling in the air had been successfully accomplished and a fe- fueling endurance record set long be- fore the feat of the Question Mark, and, naturally enough, as events have shown, the pioneers who accomplished it were Army Alr Corps pilots. The first refueling in flight was done six years ago, in now obselete DeHaviland planes, The pilots who performed ‘the feat were Capt. Lowell H. Smith (who also participated in the first round-the-world flight in history), and Lieut. John Paul Rich- ter. It took place over Rockwell Field. After they had proved that it could be done, Capt. Smith and Lieut. Richter set out to make a record with their new stunt. On June 28-28, 1923, they remained aloft 37 hours 15 minutes and 14 seconds it their open cockpit D-H, Their record remained unchallenged until the Army sent the Question l Pield for t.

About that time the Air Corpse was making records fast, some of which have not been equaled. Capt. Smith and Lieut.

Eaker, pilot of the Thompson “will attempt to: fly two round trips between San Francisco and New York, refueling in the air en route. To detail the list of marks estab- lished by the Air Oo for others to shoot at would require too long in the telling. Sufficé ib. to say that when this branch of the Army has blazed the trail, scores of spectacular stunts springyup to capture the front pages. The transpacific flight of Lieuts. Lester J.

At the bottom are the éig- | natures of Gardner and Sarah Jones, | to which are attached the red seals. | This original deed is written on thick parchment. It,is folded once | in the middle. The full length of the | parchment sheet is 261, inches by 16 inches wide. On one of the back | folded pages is the signature of John | Ray, master in chancery, attesting | to the acknowledgment of the deed by Gardner and Sarah Jones, and | another written citation by Robert | Benson, clerk of the City and County | of New York, attests that it has been recorded in Liber 43 of conveyances. page 348, Mey 5, 1786. There is also the signature of Gardner Jones ac- knowledging receipt of the purchase price, followed. by the signatures of Nicholas Herring and Peter Smith as witnesses. The deed is as clean today as when it was executed. It is now owned by F. S. Kane, of the Times Square Hotel, a collector of old New York material, who found it a short time | ago.

City’s most beautiful approaches—via 16th Street or Beach Drive through the Park. ee To Wives with Impulsive Husbands! | Wuen John's old college chum arrives unexpectedly, does John’ s last-minute dinner-at-home invitation bring about a contretemps (high hat for the ‘family look’ and what follows it)? Or, when his uncle (the wealthy one) comes on from the West for a few days, is there embarrassment at having to shunt him off to a downtown hotel? Don't blame John for his pardonable pride in you and the home you have made for him. In his impulsive way, he doesnt stop to realize the careful thought that must precede a successful dinner, nor the ing. ’ that a house guest involves. Half the pleasure of hospitality is lost when it becomes an effort, a bother and burden. And yet, in this day of high rents, the maintenance of a permanent guest room for use at infrequent intervals is a matter of no inconsiderable cost. Also, the best can-opener in the world will never lend prestige to your culinary skill in the eyes of the unexpected dinner or luncheon guest. arrang- The answer? We have it for you, of course. Here, in this entranc- ing community, thoughtful planning has provided every possible aid to comfortable, convenient, carefree, economical living. For instance, you may entertain your unexpected dinner guest in ‘hee Cafe in the new Club Building, or in your own dining room by utilizing the cafe “room service available to all apartment homes in the develop- ment on the shortest possible notice. Again, several hotel rooms in the Club Building are always ready for your overnight guests, avoiding the expense of extra rooms, used only occasionally, 1 in your own home, and yet permitting you to extend real hospitality at all times. There are many other conveniences and advantages in Tilden Gar- dens that will appeal to you strongly. Ideal location, beautiful environ- ment, gorgeous gardens and grounds, and many other features make it the home ideal. By all means arrange to visit it now, while every size, arrangement and style of home is available for inspection. TILDEN GARDENS Distinctive Co-Operative Apartment Homes e.

RealEstateFirmsRewarded For Granting Playgrounds Total of $30,000 Presented to Sixteen Subdividers From Funds of Harmon Foundation of New York City—Land Worth $121,000. With a donation of $2,000 to Laura A. Patridge, of Owosso, Mich., the Harmon Foundation of New York City has completed a total of sixteen awards to real estate companies which have set aside land for permanent public playgrounds, according to the Playground and Recreation Associa- tion of America, which administered ,»the awards. FPourten subdividers have received $2,000 awards and two have received $1,000 awards. The playgrounds do- nated vary from 1 to 11 acres in area. They range from 1.6 to 14 per cent of the subdivisions of which they are a part, twelve of them being in excess of 4 per cent. Factors influencing the choice of real estate men to receive the awards were the type and promise of the subdivision, the rapidity of the city’s growth in population and the willing- ness of the city to accept the play areas. The appraised value of the areas set apart is more than $121,000. In most cases the money given was devoted to developing and beautifying the play spaces. The purpose of the foundation's awards was threefold: to show munici- to which the Suncrest Homes Co. gave 4% acras. “It receives without cost a piece of land which in a few. years could be purchased only at figures which would perhaps be prohibitive,” he stated. The companies receiving the awards were:. Will County Realty Co., Joliet; J. D. Diffenbaugh, Monmouth, and the Carl O. Johnson ,Co., Rockford, ll.; H. A. Smith, Anderson, Ind; Great Lakes Land Co., Inc., Detroit; Sunset Hills Development Co., Grand Rapids; Mr. and Mrs. Walter Betterly. Battle Creek, Mich.; George F. Kramer, South St. Paul, Minn.; Con- shohocken Realty Co., Conshohoken, Pa.; Boundary Realty Co., New York City; Estates Realty Co., Lorain, Ohio; Monticello Land Co., Fort Worth; J. A.

It’s the frying pan that’s the curse of the modern kitchen. It is the ehief source of indigestion, and sends more people to the dentist than chewing taffy. These and other frankly hostile re- marks about the household imple- ment in which bacon and eggs are prepared for the breakfast table were addressed to the British Social Hy- giene School] here by Col. P. 8. Le- lean, professor of public health at Edinburgh Universsty. “The frying pan bakes and dries up food,” said the professor. “It makes it hard and thoroughly indl- gestible, and is one of the chief'causes of the decay of teeth. “It is true that the frying pan has cooked the Englishman’s break- fast for many years, but it is also true that for many years the Eng- lishman has been suffering from bad digestion.” Collects Old Prints.

Caserta, Italy, Aug. 24 (AP.).—The Royal Aeronautical Academy here, training school for Italy’s future filers, is receiving hundreds of applications for enrollment from all over the king- dom. Its fall term opens October 16, but the final list of accepted aspirants will be made up well before that date. To be eligible for a cadetship, the would-be aviator must be aged between 17 and 22. He must have.a certificate of “good mofal and political conduct,” and have passed his baccalaureate in classics or sciences, which means roughly that he must have the “in- tellectual baggage” of an American college sophomore. Owing to the early age at which many Italians marry, there isa provi- sion in the requirements that the budding airman “must be a bachelor or a widower without offspring.” After Rafael Ruiz, of Alix-en-Pro- vence, France, had suffered his thirty- sixth industrial accident, police be- came suspicious and arrested him on a charge of faking. ee ee HOME IN NORTHAMPTON STREET | ee eet ae ene ee tee ee oe GREATER CHICAGD [O WELL PLANNED Program of Expansion, for 7,500,000 Population, Held Model. WATER SYSTEM MAPPED CONTINUED PROM PAGE 5. third step was to fring city and village officials into touch with the county and State officials so that they might coordinate thelr street lans to fit the county and State ighway plans. “During the four years in which the Regional Planning Association has been active the highway systems of the three States, Illinois, Wiscon- sin and Indiana, and fifteen counties have been so coordinated as to de- velop a system of more than 2,500 mile of paved road with few breaks between one county and another, or at the lines between States. More than 1,000 miles of additional pave- ment are planned to be finished by the end of 1930, and in addition much of the existing mileage will be wid- ened from 18 to 20-foot widths to 40 feet or more, Main Thoroughfares Broad. “The main broad thoroughfares from Chicago are Indianapolis boule- vard, which leads to the Dunes high- way; Halstead street, Ashland avenue and Western avenue, each of which leads into the 40-foot pavement on State road 49 direct to Kankakee; the Southwest highway, the Joliet road, Ogden avenue, Roosevelt road, North avenue across DuPage County to the Fox River; Lake street to Elgin, Northwest highway toward Barrinc- ton, River road, Milwaukee avenue, Waukegan road and the Skokie Valley road toward Lake Forest. On most of these the widening is either complete or under construction at the present time. “The great industrial organizations of Lake County, Ind., are collaborat- ing with Federal, State, county, town- ship, city, town, railroad and other officials, and out of a bad tangle is coming a remarkably direct system of radial thoroughfares to and from Chicago. “There are now in the region of Chicago about 52,000 acres of State, county and city parks and play- grounds, and the objective for 1950. which has been set by the park au- thorities, is a minimum of 140,000 acres. “In this region subdividers have beén platting acreage into lots at a tremendously rapid rate. New town sites are springing up, annexations are being made to many of the cities and villages; and some are doubling and trebling their areas. Many sub- divisions are being platted outside of city and village limits and the high- ways or streets on these plats are un- der control of the county. “All public improvements made in these subdivisions should be correlated with plans and improvements in ad- joining sections, resulting in uniform development in most of the newly subdivided territory. Officials and subdividers as well have agreed long since on a set of uniform regulations which assure throughout the region a connected system of future streets.

DARK TOP SOIL NEEDED} August is the ideal month to start a new lawn or to freshen up the old one, according to gardening experts of the New York Botanical Garden, Bronx Park. Modern chemical fertilizers have ure new chemicals must be ysed spar- ingly, and be thoroughly mixed with the soil. A pound of powdeted chémi- cals evenly distributed, should cover 30 square feet. A new lawn requires a good dark top soil, well fertilized and worked to a six-inch depth. The surface soil should be pulverized, rolled and leveled, and sown with about a pound of seed to 100 square feet. When the seed has been even! scattered over the surface it shoul be very lightly raked, so that it is scarcely buried. The earth should be kept moist, though the seed must not be Out\by too heavy watering. Grass seed will sp as little as a week's time during very warm weather, and will-have a good foothold before the frost. New grass seeding can be protected from the dangers of drought and by scattering over it a p peat moss which will not only help hold the moisture be- tween waterings, but will keep the soil loose and absorbent. The old lawn that has stood hard wear during the summer likewise may be nourished by a fine sprinkling of the powdered chemical fertilizers, washed down into the soil by a rain, or, failing this, by a deluge from the garden hose. and grow in French Tourist Tax Grows More Unpopular Paris, Aug. 24 (A.P.).—Taxes on tourists, levied in the principal re- sort towns, are so unpopular that enforcement is difficult. Only a few cents a day are charged but the total .contribution was expected to be large. In some places only one- sixth the estimated amount has been collected. All sorts of frauds are practiced, says a report to the ministry of the interior. Doctors,. artists and pro- fessors afe exempt, so the hotels apparently have a very heavy pro- essional trade. Canceled Checks Aid ‘Signature Forgeries Chicago, Aug. 24 (A.P.).—The Amer- ican Bankers Association is sponsoring a Nation-wide fight against check forgéers who operate k, stealing can- eéled checks from private mail boxes and imitating the signatures. The protective department of the association distributed a warning to member banks urging them to place greater safeguards around canceled checks and depositors’ statements. Farmers Scorn _ Big Cities’-Lure|; Michigan Villages, How- ever, Much Patronized on Saturday Nights. Lansing, Mich,, Aug. 24 (A.P.).— ag town has not lost its lure a meeti place for farmers on Saturday nights despite the develop- ment of ee automobile, the im- proved highways, and big city com- petition. Every inch of parking space on Main street in Michigan villages is taken Saturday nights when the farmers come to town to pack a week's trading and visiting into one night. Small. town merchants, who were fearful a decade ago that their fu- ture was doomed by the automobile and the big city, now report busi~ ness. better than ever -before. They have found a new way to hold rural trade. They have copied the system of their metropolitan competitors and are advertising special week-end trade leaders in a style to which they were not accustomed a decade ago. Russian Fur Farm Prosperous. Moscow, Aug. 24 (A.P.).—The fur farm established last autumn near Moscow has met with especial suc- cess in that for the first time sabl.s haye bred in captivity.

PULSE RATE ALSO AIDED “Blood pressure is one of the most important gauges of the effects of air conditions on the body,” says a booklet on “Air Motion in Home Cool- ing and Home Heating’’ which has just been issued by the Holland Insti- tute of Thermology of Holland, Mich. “Often it is elderly persons and portly ones—those whose blood pressures are nearest the danger point—who uffer most from the heat. For them, as well as for others, air motion is beneficial.” ' Referring to blood pressure tests made at the research laboratory of the U. S. Bureau of Mines at Pitts- burgh, the bulletin shows that. with air moving at a sustained velocity over the body, the effects of heat are not nearly as severe as when the ait is still. Other similar tests show that air motion has a beneficial ef- fect upon pulse rate and internal body temperature as well as blood pressure, After showing how air motion pro- motes summertime comfort. the booklet describes severa] methods by which it can be used for its cooling effect in the home. Among these are heating systems in which electrified air propellers are installed to keep cooling breezes moving through the rooms of the house. Finally, the new bulletin, which may bé obtained by request to the Holland Institute of Thermology of Holland, Mich., shows how these pro- pellers increase heating efficiency and lower fuel costs during cold wea- ther.

be =. > ' 7 N extraordinary amount of inter- est ig being shown these days in a new photoradio by means of “which photographs and facsimiles of messages 5 by 6% inches in size. will be transmitted through space by radio and delivered ready for imme- Giate use in 444 minutes. This ex- traordinary device has just been in- vented by a Russian, Dr. Viadimir Zworykin, research engineer of the Westinghousé Electric Manufac- . Baring, €o., It. would: seem; that the “ideal. in picture transmissién by fa- dio, so long sought by countless in- ‘ yentors and scientists the world over, - . ~ 7 now, has been attained. “In the majority of methods of still- * pleture broadcasting, ‘photographic development is necessary. after - the ‘tramemission has . been completed, thus making the total time for the operation approximately one hour. “Ong gystem in which photographic development im unnecessary, requires — 20 -minufés- for “ an. ‘avérage- _ fined ‘picture; the latger the pictute,- “ the-more time- it réquired for trans-: i mission. Then, too, ’ unfortunately, the resultant photographs up to the pres- ent time have not been nearly as 3 clear. as one could desire. . 7 &nd how. does Dr. Zworykin's ap- eee or & ‘perdtus differ from earlier picture: “broadcasting devices? With this new “egeeiver,.the transmitted image's produced 50 that the onlooker may sée the photograph or facsimile. being formed at the receiving end, and at the conclusion of 4% minutes, the transmitted material is ready for im- mediate use—and we have photo- ‘graphs . of extraordinary clearness. ‘One heed not do any photographic developing. This type of apparatus. of couse, is particularly popular with the press as the photographs may be used the instant they come into the ‘office. ‘Dr. ‘Zworykin’s invention as it is mow perfected, was publicly shown for the -first time at the convention af the National Electric Light Associa- tion held at Atlantic City the first week in June, 1929. “And gome idea of the widespread interest in the neW- er phases of radio development may = gathered from the size of the crowds continously milling about the new photoradio which was exhibited as a feature of Westinghouse research development. It wags one of the chief attractions of-the convention. - An interesting sidelight on this fac- simile transmission demonstrated at this time was the fact that the waves which form the image on the receiv- ing end were carried from the trans- mitter on a beam of light which acted in” the same way as the invisfble waves of a radio station. This beam of light was substituted for radio waves because of the impracticability of trying to erect -a broadcasting equipment in. ¢he auditorium. First, an attendant placed the pic- ture to be transmitted on a cylinder on the sending device. Then, as the transmission started, a beam of light gleamed from an ordinary-appearing JjJamp and was trained on a refiéctor placed some distance away. As the~ cylinder on the transmitter revolved, another on the regeiver revolved at precisely the same speed. | Passing across the cylinder was a long roll of paper upon which was reproduced the original picture or message. “ “These reproductions are 5 inches by 614 inches in size,” says a Westing- House hulletin, “and they can be printed at the rate of one every 414 minutes.’ They may be reproduced continuously, one after, another, on the Jong roll of paper. “The transmitting equipment used by ‘Dr. Zworyin 1.. this demonstra- tion is the same as used in previous types. The only change in the equip- ment is in the‘receiying end. — “In the sending set an ordinary photograph or-typewritten letter is placed on the cylnider, which rotates slowly and at the same time pro- greases longitudinally. A beam of light is sharply focused on the sur- face of the picture and.in this way every point of thé picture Is éxplorea by this beam of light, New. Photoradio Transmits Large, Clear Photo- graphs at Rate of One Every 414 Minutes—How Human Affairs Are: Being Revolutionized by ‘Science and Its Laboratories—Television on Way. By DOROTHY PLETCHER The refiected light is gathered by a parabolic re- flector, which conveys the reflection to the photo-electric tube, or “electric eye,” which Issues an electrical im- pulse corresponding to the density: of the image on the photograph. ... “Instead of changing the electrical impulses into light again as in pre- viously demonstrated equipment, the _ new device reproduces the. picture by sending the actual current through a Specially compounded paper. The ac- tion of the electricity on the chem{- cala in the Paper, through electrolysis, changes the color of the — ‘and re- creates the original Pap In order to do this paper from the roll is first passed through a water bath for the purpose of mak- - ing it more conductive, and then over a cylinder which is rotating in syn- ‘chronism with the transmitting cylin- der. . There ,is a knife edge curved in . spiral from-one side to the other on the surface of the cylinder, while on top of the paper there is a straight knife edge which with the spiral edge forms the. two electrical contacts of the iver. Then, as the cylinder with ‘the spiral rotates, it makes the sliding contact along the «straight edge;. and this contact, moving. from one side to the other, makes one line * of the reproduced image with each complete revolution. The paper is slowly advanced through the receiver, its motion cor- responding exactly to the motion of the transmittimg cylindér. The two motions in this way reproduced pre- _ Cleely the scanning of the photograph by the transmitter and recreated the image om the paper as ‘the varying current produced more or less chemi- cal change in the paper. : , In its present form this deyice has no commercial utility, but while the company’s officials will not say how soon the mechanism will be perfected for commercial use, it is known that work is rapidly going ahead in the laboratories, and it is expetted thet it will be ready before the end of the year. Of course the transmission of pic- tures by radio has been experimented with by various people. But the present methods have been com- plained of because of the cumber- someness of their apparatus and the length of time consumed in their transmissions. Consequently scien- tists and inventors have been stead- iy seeking the way in which to speed up the process, eliminate the necessity for photographic develop- ment at the receiving end, and turn out: photographs of: greater clearness. And that is what Dr. Zworykin has done. Although in many instances now the telegraph companies transmit their material through the medium of the telephoto—that is, over the wireg—they have been postponing the adoption of radio facsimile send- ing because of the slowness of the processes in the existing systems: Radio picture transmission is their ideal, but it will not be expedient for them to send their messages ex- clusively in this way until the nec- essary time requirement is speeded up, for in their own telegraph sys- tem they can receive and send a & Dr. | Vladimir Zz worykin, vesearch engineer, holding the beam of light over which photographs See ‘messages were recently transmitted.” £ 2 OF £5 , Sand: fa —e eT ee oe i ee ee a ee | * —- Se ee es ee en -?) a message in two minutes. But still, ‘it might be said that their consumed by one message is fre- quently much more than these two minutes when one figures on the loss of time in the delays caused by mis- takes and misunderstanding of re- celved messages. And so it ls per- sistently” predicted that in the very mear future it will not be at all Surprising to see all telegrams sent in this novel picture form, because they will then be authentic in both the body of the message and the signature. The future telegram in. fac-simile then, is td be delivered in the exact handwriting of the sender! This never fails to bring forth the some- what hackneyed but amusing story of the man who refused to accept a telegram because it was not ‘in his friend's handwriting. Now it would seem that this gentleman was not so ridiculéus after all, but just a trifie ahead of his time. The wise telegraph companies look upon this method with an exceed- ingly kindly eye for they see that fac-simile will completely eliminate mistakes now frequently made by thelr operators. Now and then a company has been sued for such mistakes; and so henceforth, they blithely predict that there will not be the slightest excuse for a law sult. Fraudulent messages, too, will be a thing of the past. The Navy Department has tried several fac-simile transmission sys- tems. One of these, unfortunately, is limited to the reception of weather | maps, while the department says that the other has apparatus that is too expensive and the process too slow. However, it is only fair to say that since the department bought its present system, a more modern ap- paratus has been evolved by the Radio Corporation of America which furnished it. The War Department likewise re- alizes the possibilities of this recent. radio wonder. In sending communi- cations by fac-simile transmission, the signature of the officer who writes the message comes through exactly as he has written it; and naturally, the very obvious reason for the depart- ment'’s absorption in this is that in time of war the enen.y’s spies may not forge signatures to orders or change commands that are issued from head- quarters. But what of the various picture transmission systems? In 1921, the Radio Corporation of America started to use Capt. R. H. Ranger's system of facsimile transmission. Today they are still using the Ranger apparatus, which, in the meantime, has been improved. In May, 1924, the Bell.System dem- onstrated its telephotograph at the New York headquarters. This, natur- ally, was by wire. A year later, in April, 1925, the service was inaugurat- time , ed on a commercial basis, with send- ing and receiving stations located at New York City, Chicago, and San Francisco. Since then a number of stations have been added to the sys- tem. The apparatus of the Bell Tele- phone System transmitted from a film measuring 5 by 7 inches; larger pic- tures were reduced to this size. “The actual transmission of a picture took 74% minutes.” says one of their mén, “put there were some purely photo- graphic details at either end, which brought the over-all time to about 4n hour.” Then, on November 6, 1927, the Cooley Rayfoto picture system was demonstrateti at the New York radio show. And on January 26 1928, Dr. E. FP. W. Alexanderson, of the General Elec- tric Co., demonstrated one oP his sys- tems of radio picture transmission and reception through station WEAP. These are just a very few of the methods in use, for many are the men who have experimented and are now trying to effect the world’s most per- fect system of radio picture broad- casting! Before very long a radio program

Broadcasters will come @ depend on picture transmission to @iustrate their talks much as in the @anner of the old stereopticon slides. All this, of course, in the interim be- fore television hurls itself into our eivilization, changing the present or- der into undreamed-of miracies. With the present equipment the reproduc- tion of pictures'in our homes is now possible. Im fact, it is inevitable that radio picture broadcasting will soon be to our radio programs what the illustrations in books and newspapers are to them. News pictures, photo- graphs of sports events wil] make the tabloids look to their safety. Pos- sibly they may go out of business. The radio programs of the future? Highly imaginative writers would have a lovely time with this topic, yet in all probability their most ex- travagant predictions will come true! It would seem that we are so saTiated with scientific wonders that we no longer marvel. “Anything,” says the go0-called younger generation, “is pos- sible.” And now daily we find novel] uses cropping up for the photoradio; more and more people are coming to de- pend on this method for speeding up their affairs. Banks are paying checks sent through this manner. Ad- vertising firms submit copy to their clients; large business concerns send through trial balances; stock market transactions take place; architects send their drawings to clients across the continent; X-rays are hurried forth; documents flash from San Francisco to New York; fashions and textile designs are shown to custom- ers thousands of miles away. A 2,500- word message in the speed-writing method. has been fiashed across the country in one picture. Speedily financial houses radio news pictures concerning a new stock issue back and forth from the Atlantic to the Pacific in this way, getting revisions and approvals in a matter of minutes where it used to take days. The police, too, take advantage of this Ughtning system for broadcast- ing fingerprints and photographs of fugitives. Now, four and a half min- utes after a search is instituted for a criminal, his picture will have been sent through the’air and police at just about any place on the map w)ll be on the lookout. And so, in this way, human affairs and industry and big business are speeded up to a greater degree, no doubt, than it ever occurred to us even ten years ago could happen. With the saving of time there goes hand in hand the saving of money, for delays in industry always mean money. Small wonder that industrial Jeaders are impatiently waiting to see what Dr. Zworykin’s new photoradio will do for them. Now the ques*t'-1 is being asked continually: Does radio picture recep- tion offer sufficient entertainment to promise rapid e: '---ion in the homes of broadcast listeners? From all that can be learned concerning the radio public’s likes and d ‘kes, it would geem that it is more interested in the fairyland of i. >vision than in still- Picture broac-asting. But the latter. however far “:2m perfection it may be, is now a reality. And business and industrial leaders the world over fhave their eyes on it, for in it they wlimpse one of the greatest boons that pas come their way in ny a day. On the other hand, television—how Tt does conjure up wonders for the average person—is still in the experi- Mental stage in the laboratory, and there are many difficulties to be over- come before it can be offered to the Moillionis of radio fans now in this rapidly moving age, fast becoming dis- patisfied with mere musical and ora- torical programs. “‘When will we have television?” they persistently inquire of radio publications. “When will we pe able to see the movements of our friends on the other end of the line?” they demand. On this subject the authorities dif- fer.. Some say that it will be ten years before television will be on a commercial basis similar to ofr mod- ern broadcasting system; others claim that it is practically here now; but the consensus of opinion is that there will be a lapse of years and much, much more experimenting before we may enjoy television as it has been described by writers in their most elaborate Jules Verne manner.

It is interesting to know that the formulation of principles and the foundation work preparatory to what we have today in this realm was the work of several generations of experi- menters. For instance, the scanning disk, the basis of present day systems, was in- vented by Nipkow back in 1884, Dr. E. F. W. Alexanderson has invented a television set. The American Tele- phone & Telegraph Co. has demon- strated its apparatus. Dr. C. Francis Jenkins, of this city, has been working on picture trans- mission for about twenty years. On July 2, 1928, he began the broadcast- ing of radio movies in which he transmitted from a strip of motion picture film. Recently the achieve- ment of color in television was demonstrated in the Bell Laboratories in New York—this, of course, was by wire. But with all that has and is being done, perfect television is a long way off. “In the present development of television,” says a radio publication, “the subject Of television transmission must stand within a few inches of the scanning device, and, as a con- sequence, only the bust of a single in- dividual can be broadcast. Any rapid motion is blurred. Under the circum- stances, present day television has few, if any, advantages over the trans- mission and reception of still photo- graphs.” : The radio today, in all of its fascin- ating ramifications, is not the work of any one man or small group of men. Rather, it is the result‘of the evolving of the ideas of many men, each con-_ tributing a helpful share to the sum total of radio knowledge. The nineteenth century physicists, Ampere, Volta and Faraday, studied and learned some interesting things about the action of electric currents. Perhaps it was the work of these men that helped Clerk Maxwell, an English mathematician, in 1873 to his conclus sion that high frequency alternating current, owing in a circuit, would give rise to electrical waves in the . —_ surrounding space; and the existence of the waves now used in radio com- munication was discovered in 1887 by a German, one Heinrich Hertz. Mar- coni was the one to try these discov- eries in long distance communication by adopting the ground connection, thus making use of the earth as one portion of the transmission circuit. . And now a tremendotia interest in the large field outside the realm. of broadcasting sound is fast becoming ~ apparent, and the more modern uses of radio, such as picture transmission, television, ‘ trans-oceafiic telephony and innumerable other appealing to the romantic side of man. There is a vast scientific inter- est in these radio innovations. Peo- ple want to know more and more about them. They are buying appa- ratus and doing some honit-experi- menting.

With all the zest of youth, they are the ones who are clamoring the loudest for telewWsion and. still picture broadcasting. The influence of radio upon human affairs is in iteelf an absorbing study. “In seven .” gays Mr. Lawrence D.

The Silver Bison Comes to Town The Silver Buffalo, Highest Honor Within the Gift of Scoutdom, Is Awarded to Washingtonian— ISTINGUISHED service to boy- hood is the basis of award of the Silver Buffalo, the highest honor within the gift. of Scoutdom, which was presen to Comufiodore Wilbert E. Longfellow, of Washing- ton, at the recent annual meeting of the National Council, Boy Scouts of America. Receiving this coveted decoration on the same occasion were former President of the United States Calvin Coolidge, Commander Richard E. Byrd, U.S. Navy; John H. Finley, associate editor of the New York Times; Howard F. Gillette, Chi- cago banker, and Charles D. Hart, active head of the Philadelphia Scout organization since 1911, For- mer President Coolidge could not at- tend the meeting and Commander Byrd, being at the South Pole, also had to radio regrets, causing the awards to this distinguished pair to be delivered by proxy. The others were all present. Award -of the Silver Buffalo, a strictly Americam decoration, was in- augurated in connection with the sixteenth annual meeting of the Na- .tional Council, Boy Scouts of Amer- ica, at Washington in 1926. More than a score of prominent laymen and Scout officials were selected for this honor. Service to boyhood, either within or outside the organ- ization, was the only basis considered in making the awards. It was de- cided that after the first year, presen- tations should be limited to five yearly, although this rule was after- ward changed to allow not more than seven awards to.be made. Six Silver. Buffaloes were awarded this year. The first award of the Silver Buf- falo was to Lieut. Gen. Sir Robert S. S. Baden-Powell, with the follow- ing citation: “Lieut. Gen. Sir Robert S. 5S. Baden-Powell, author, soldier, through wi -3e > tion, energy and wisdom was created and established the British Boy Scouts Association, pioneer of the vast confraternity of Scout organ- izations, now teaching the boyhood of the world noble conceptions of citizenship, service and the brother- hood of man; whose teachings have sown among youth the seeds of uni- versal peace and accord; whom in recognition of this service to human- Pinchot photo Commander Richard E.

Mr. Boyce, characteristic of the traveler ahroad, pulled out his coin purse and offered the boy a shilling. The boy promptly saluted and said: “Sir, I am a Scout, and Scouts do not accept tips for courtesies.” “What did you say?” asked the ‘ publisher, and the boy promptly re- peated, adding, “Don’t you what the Scouts are?’ “No,” replied the publisher, “but I know ; would like to know.” ‘Again came the salute and the re- quest: “Follow me, sir.” Mr. Boyce asked for an opportunity to finish his errand first, and when he returned, found the boy waiting. The youngster conducted the Chicago - man to the office of Sir Robert 5S. 58. Baden-Powell, whence he emerged with a trunkful of printed matter, which ‘he brought back to America. Prom Chicago, Mr. Boyce came to laws of the District of Columbia. Mr. Livingstone subsequently was presi- dent of the national organization for fifteen years. When the national council began to cast about for a decoration which should exemplify American Scout- dom’s highest appreciation to the re- cipient, the committee finally selected the bison or buffalo as a typically American animal as the subjecf for the decoration. The Silver Buffalo was designed by A. Phimister Proctor and consists of a miniature buffalo of solid silver, suspended from a two- thirds inch wide ribbon of red and white, to be Worn about the neck. All the decorations are alike with one ex- ception. In honor of the service done by the “Unknown Scout” in bringing Scout- dom to America, a bronze replica of the original silver buffalo was made especially for the International Scout Bureau, in London, in honor of the “Unknown.” The inscription accom- panying the bronze buffalo reads: “To the Unknown Scout, whose faithfulness in the performance of the daily good turn, brought the Scout movement to the United States the Silver Buffalo. The original com- mittee consisted of Lewis B. Gawtry, chairman; Daniel Carter Beard, John H. Finley, G. Barrett Rich, George D. Pratt and Mortimer L. Schiff. All of them are serving today with the ex- ception of Mr. Finley, and the form of presentation remains the same as in 1926. Chairman Gawtry reads the citation and Daniel Carter Beard, the “grand old man of Scoutdom,” hangs the decoration around the neck of the recipient. Only 43 Buffaloes, 42 silver and 1 bronze, have been awarded. The bronze replica to the “Unknown Scout” and the decoration awarded the “Unknown Soldier” leave but .40 men who have and can wear tabs highest honor of Scoutdom. Col. Charles A. Lindbergh values it as one of his most cherished decorations and it has a prominent place among the decorations from all world bestowed upon this idol of AmenNcan boyhood.

Therefore, undeserving though I an, you must know how much it means to me that you feel that I have been able to do something to forward the movement.” . With the award of each Buffalo goes a citation, which is read by tie chairman of the special committee on awards, and which sets forth, briefly, the service toward’ boyhood rendered by the recipient. In the award to Commodore Long- fellow, the citation reads: “Wilbert E.

As a result of the visit of Dr, Jack- son*to Dr. Harris Congress was ime- portuned to establish the Alaskan Reindeer Service. In the meariwhile, pending congressignal action, an ap- peal was made to benevolent individ- uals to lend their support to the en- terprise. Forthcoming immedietely was something more than $2,000-—to be exact, $2,146—and sixteen -rein- deer. These reindeer, however, never entered the service. In 1893 Congress got around to the establishment of the service. That year .it appropriated $6,000 for the work of importing’ retndeer from Si< beria to Alaska. For nine seasons, says Dr. Hamilton, the cutter Bear carried the agents of the Bureau of Education back and forth between Siberia and Alaska and transported Siberian reindeer to Alaska. : The work Was exacting in the ex- trem, involving cruises along hun- dreds of miles of fog-ridden, ice- beleaguered, uncharted coast; long delays in dangerous waters; patient bargaining in sign language with un-_ couth, uncivilized Siberians; tedious payment f6r the reindeer in, barq__ ter goods; hard work in transport-.. ing deer in the. Bear's boats from” shore to ship; discomfort 6n board while on the-way to Alaska, and’ much labor in landing the deer on the Alaskan side. The total number of deer thus imported into Alaska. from 1892 to 1902, when the Russian : government withdrew | its permit, Lt 1,280. | At the commencement of the en= terprise Port Clarence, on the Seward Peninsula, Alaska, the nearest harbor to northeast Siberia, was selected as the receiving point for the reindeer brought over season after season. As the work grew, Teller Reindeer Station, on Port Clarence, became the base of supply from which winter after winter herds were sent out over northern Alaska to establish new centers of the reindeer industry, From this starting point the reindeer enterprise gradually extended until at the present time it includes in the neighborhood of twenty stations. Its northernmost limit is. Point Barrow, on the Arctic Ocean; its southern- most extremity is at Iliamna, near the shores of the North Pacific Ocean; its easternmost limit is at Tanana, on - the Yukon™River, in the center of Alaska. . In order to distribute the reindeer among the Eskimos the Bureau .of Education early in the history of the enterprise adopted a plan of loaning small herds of reindeer, usually 100 in number (25 males and 75 females), to. mission stations for a specified period, usually five. years, as an equipment for the industrial training. of the Eskimo, Upon receiving the loan each mission agreed to train a corps of Eskimo apprentices in the | care and management of reindeer and to support them during their term of apprenticeship, At the end-of the fied period the mission station repaid the loan by returning to the Government an equal number of young deer in the same proportion of males and females as the original loan, the mission retaining the in- crease that had accumulated during a eo a Sle alkapeadaerst Alaska, eho wirietenissefrnaier. xe Stes vt ierstdivwet aT ee a ie a ee eo Bee ae Oe ae mege Pe Ete heh tn ~—<—or DAL POOR * ® a Pt, :¢ e* ee ee a ae pies : ’

This method of introducing the reindeer into Alaska has been followed at all the reindeer stations with the exception of Barrow, Gambell and Iliamna. At these stations the Government sup- ports the Eskimo boys during their apprenticeship, It has been the custom of the Reindeer Service to select at each reindeer station the most promising and ambitious Eskimo youths for training in the reindeer service. The length of service of an apprentice varies. Aptitude, intelligence and other factors of a personal nature, such as character, enter into the duration period of apprenticeship. Fifteen years after the establish-— ment of the Reindeer Service a code of rules and regulations were drawn up with regard to apprenticeship. By these rules and regulations the term of apprenticeship for a service youth was set at four years. At the end of the first year of his apprenticeship each apprentice, upon the approval of the local superinten- dent, receives six reindeer (four fe- males and two males); at the end of his second year of his apprentice- ship he receives eight (five females and three males); at the end of the third year of apprenticeship he re- ceives ten reindeer (six females and four males). Further, with the approval of his local superintendent, an apprentice may kill his surplus male deer and sell the meat for food and the skin “for clothing. He is encouraged also to use his sled deer in carrying mais, passengers, and freight. At the close of his apprenticeship an apprentice becomes a herder and assumes entire-charge of his herd, subject, be it understood, to the rules and regulations of the Reindeer Service. The herder now becomes an instructor in the service and repays the Government for his training by instructing apprentices. The schoolhouse at Peint Barrow, and the Reindeer Service there, however, must not be taken as a typical example of Alaskan education. It is only an expression of.what can be done jn and is being done in what may well be said to be the remotest and coldest spot of our great national possession to the north. When one comes down from that isolated northern habitation into the lower reaches of Alaska, the southern coast and the interior, he finds the Alaskan division of the Bureau of Education doing great things, stepping along progressively and wonderfully.

But it was found that once out of their native environment for any length of time, Eskimos did not fit well into it again when returned. Therefore, it became necessary, in the interest of health and morals, to take to the Eskimos secondary and indus- trial schools. This has been done only within the last year or so. Now there exist throughout Alaska industrial schools where Eskimos may finish their education and perfect them- selves in those native arts in which they are so peculiarly adept. These include basket-weaving, carving, boat- Sake a A laska building and other construction work. The 2skimos are very deft in all kinds of carving and some of the work turned out by them, as revealed by samples in the Smithsonian Insti- tution, are beautiful indeed. Basket-weaving is another manual art at which the Eskimos are very finished. Samples on display are re- markable examples of what industry and ingenuity can accomplish. Too, Eskimos have a great deal of native mechanical skill which finds expres- sion in boat-building, house-building, &c.

Many of the young people are making good as reindeer men, sailors, engineers, sawmill men, car- penters, mine laborers, teachers, cooks, orderlies, nurses and in other lines of activity.” In fact, a new age has come to dwell in Alaska, even in far north Point Barrow, which, before the ad- vent of the radio and airplane was as completely shut off from the rest of the world as the North Pole itself, Now there is established at Point Bar- row a radio station and word may be got to the United States of conditions there, of life and happenings as quickly almost as from some neigh- boring isle in southern seas.

Under the old order of things, to cover the same ground, it would have taken a year. Today Point Barrow and its school, visited by Amundsen and Wilkins and served by radio, is distant in miles only. Tomorrow, maybe, the natives will have radio sets in their homes and receive educational instruction via the unknown. Who knows? eop! Henry Ill of France and His Hundred Dogs. By PRESTON WRIGHT. “Each day he was filled with emotion as he selected the dogs that should accompany him.” T« foilies which beset the court of France.during the reign of Henry III were evidenced in the royal pets as wel' as in everything else. The devotion of an honest man to an honest dog merits the admiration of all of us. But Henry’s pets were an affectation, one fears, and an af- fectation quite on a scale with his other extravagances. His fancy ran to dogs of the tiniest breeds. It is said that he often had more than a hundred lapdogs in his apartments and that there was sel- dom less than this number on hand. A chronicler of the period describes the royal bed chamber. Henry slept in a room the floor of which was strewn with roses. His gilded bed was hung with cloth of silver. When he lay down he rested his ghead upon crim- son satin pillows. His face was half covered by a mask dipped in odortifer- ous oil and with gloved hands be helped himself from a collation of sweetmeats and rolled meats spiced. Anon, he petted a number of the lit- tle dogs, who reclined on the cush- ions beside him. Occasionally he incited them to quarreling, when a deafening jangle of yelps and howls filled the room. Each day when he daily airing with Queen Louise, he was filled with emotion as he selects4 the dogs that should accompany him. He found it difficult to leave any be- hind, but, as they were carried in the arms, like babies, it was impos- went for his % Pe le ad | One of his chamberlains—brainy fellow—solved the problem. He in- vented a light basket, lined with the richest crimson satin, which could be slung over the king’s shoulder, and in which it was a. simple matter to carry a dozen of the lapdogs. The king was vastly pleased and gave his retainer special commenda- tion. Henry also kept a number of par- rots and several small monkeys in his apartments. He himself instructed the parrots in conversation. But, as befitted one of his character, he taught the poor birds nothing that did them credit. He eqtipped them with all the ob- jectionable slang that happened to be current. Their ribald exclamations at op- portune moments brought gales of laughter from him. The monkeys were kept for an en- tirely different use. They were in- tended to intimidate undesired per- s0ns who found their way into the royal chambers. They were set upon individuals whom Henry found obnoxious. The king's pets were of course the pets of his Courtiers, those duelling .braggadocios whose truculence was adorned with dress more effeminate than that of the ladies of the court, and who were at all hours to be found in Henry’s company.

In 1863 « large force of Union troops occupied Fairfax Court House and its vicinity, extending toward Warrenton as far as Centerville and spreading outward toward the Poto- mac River and in the opposite direc- tion.

Mosby had now be- gun to make himself and his men Obnoxious to the Federal troops in morthern Virginia. Constant surpris- ing of sentinels and capturing of pickets and military stores was wear-~ ing on the nerves, consequently the forces at Fairfax had been ordered to keep a sharp lookout to prevent sud- den attacks. Col. Percy Wyndham, an English officer in command of the Union cavalry at Fairfax, was especi- ally disgruntled. He asserted that he would soon put a stop to these af- fairs and sent word to Mosby that ‘he would bag the whole band and send them to military prison. The message was delivered to Mosby and it only made pim more de- termined than ever to carry out a plan which had long been in his mind—the capture of Stoughton and Wyndham from the very center of their own camp at Fairfax. Familiar with the roads of the county from previous campaigning there and aided by a Union deserter, Ames, he planned to enter the camp through a gap which between Centerville and Chan- tilly connected the cavalry pickets with the infantry. It was late in the afternoon of a dull, stormy day when Mosby and 29 of his men left Aldie, a little village about 20 miles from Fairfax. In the gray drizzle of the fading day, the band of Confederate horsemen picked their way slowly to the north and as dusk fell it found them trotting silently muddy by-roads and forests. They entered the enemy's lines at the angie formed about half a mile from Fairfax, where the road from Warrenton and Centerville joins the pike from Aldie. By this time a steady rain was falling. The horses slid through the deep mud of the road as they plowed their way by a path to the right and crept to the east of the little village which lay ahead, hidden in the mist and trees. They were now within the Wnion limes, camp-fires of the enemy were beginning to spring up out of the fog on every hand. But no sen- tinel challenged the column of gray horsemen. Reaching the pike which led from the railroad station to Fairfax, the company turned into this road and proceeded in the storm and darkness toward the town—thus entering from an entirely different way from that from Aldie by which they had started. Wo sentinels were along this road, a@nd Mosby correctly reasoned that the pickets around the village of Fair- fax would naturally conclude that @ny troops coming from the direction of the railroad were, of course, a Federal force, as all of the country toward the railroad was in the pos- Session of the Union Army.

Mosby had told none of his gen, except Ames and one named Hunter, of the object of their expedi- tion, and they were as much sur- prised as the enemy when they found themselves at 2 in the morning in @ heavy rain, standing at the public @quare in the center of this village which was occupied by Gen.

Nel-- son, of Warrenton, where Stoughton’s headquarters lay, so Mosby with five or six men rode off to bag the general. These men who assisted in trapping Stoughton were Joseph Nelson, Sergt. Hunter, Welt Hatcher, Whitescarver and Frank Williams. Plunging down across the lawn which surrounds the large, red, brick mansion, the Confederate riders reached the house and dismounted. The place was dark and silent, the rain pouring down heavily. One of the raiders gave a thundering knock at the door. At this a window above “Fifth New York Cavalry with dis- patches for Gen. Stoughton,” Mosby replied, ” *- e In a few moments heavy footsteps were heard and the front door was thrown open, disclosing a man clad in shirt and drawers. Mosby seized the man by the collar and whispered in his ear to lead the way quietly and at once to the bedchamber of Gen. Stoughton. The officer, who was Lieut. Prentiss, of the general’s staff, thought it best not to argue with several men whose pistols shone in the lamplight, 80 he ascended the stairs to the second story, followed closely by Mosby_and his men, Prentiss and the Rangers walked unceremoniously into Stoughton’s room. The man of war lay snoring comfortably, his military parapherna- lia scattered about the room, which also displayed the signs of revelry of many empty champagne bottles on the tables. But the entrance of the Rangers made no impression on the sleeping Mars. So Mosby walked up to the bed, around which his men now clustered, and pulling down the bed clothes, bestowed a heavy’ shake on the occupant. ‘ “What does this mean?” demanded Stoughton springing up from his sleep. “It means,” Mosby replied, “that you are a prisoner—that Stuart’s cav- alry has possession of the town and that Gen. Stonewall Jackson is at Centerville. Did you ever hear of Mosby?” “Qh, yes,” answered the general. “Well, -I am Mosby; he has caught you,” was the_reply. “Is Fitz Lee here?” asked Stough- ton. “Yes.” “Well, take me to him,” continued the captive, “we were classmates at West Point.” . Stoughton and his staff then care- fully dressed, and when they all de- scended the stairs, they found that the two Confederates who had been left on guard below, had gathered in all of the horses and had them gad- dleq ready for the Union officers to mount. Stoughton mounted, Hunter ~ Gen. Edwin i. Seaphiea: iasie a » Brady photo taken” during the Civil Wer. / took “hold of his bridle rein and they set out for the square, which had been the appointed rendezvous. Here they found all the squads as- sembled after successful expeditions on the enemy, but as yet no alarm had been given and things were go- ing along quietly in the darkness in the very midst of a still slumbering camp. The prisoners did not realize what had happened, that there was only a handful of Confederates in the center of several thousand Union troops, fof the very daring of the deed was its safety—no one would dream that 29 men had penetrated into their camp, so it must be that Jackson and Stuart had taken the town, they, felt. So far not a shot had been fired, but the raiders had gathered in about a hundred men and. horses as their prize, including a brigadier géneral and several officers. About dawn the men and their prisoners were down the road toward Centerville, though around them still burned fires from various camps. Light had just begun to flush the East when the lfhe of riders came swiftly trotting toward the hills of Centerville, Mosby and Nelson brinzg- ing up the rear, watching to see if any pursuit had been sent out from Pairfax, but none appeared. The road lay so close to the Union forts that cannon could be seen Brletins in the dim light. At this point a pistol shot rang out. Capt. Barker had made a dash for fréedom, but he and his horse lay struggling in a ditch. So many pris- oners in the blue uniforms and the few Confederate gray-clad forms must: have given the sentry the idea that it was a company of Union troops es< corting prisoners. At any rate, the procession proceeded undisturbed, and ~ after getting past Centerville it struck Cub Run, which stream was flowing swiftly from the heavy rain. Raiders and prisoners all plunged into the water and struggled to the opposite bank. Looking back, . the Rangers could see the fort up the hill at Centervile, the white tents dotting the land and the guns flecked by the first rays of the rising sun. To Stough- ton, this was one of the saddest sights of his life, for now his military life was_a setting, not a rising sun, but the ‘raiders knew that they had now completed one of the most daring ex- ploite of history and were safe once more in Confederate lines. They con- tinued their march to Warrenton and later on to Culpeper, where the pris- other prisoners, with their arms, equipment, and 58 horses—all with- out the firing of a shot and taken from the very center of a hostile force of many thousands. A pretty romance connected with this expedition was that of a fair young lady, resident of Fairfax at that time. This girl, Antonia Ford, was a great belle, not only among the native Virginia lads but much ad- mired by the Federal efficers. On ‘the night of Stoughton’s capture a party of his friends who had come out from Washington had, after the festivities at his headquarters retired to the Ford home, where they had en- gaged rooms. Among the party of ladies were Stoughton’s mother and sister. . When it was discovered that Mosby had seized the general, his staff and ~horses, great. was the consternation of his friends and relatives. As the Fords were Southern people and Mos- by had often visited them at their house, it was decided that Miss An- tonia had most likely given informa- tion to the Rangers and in some way aided in their attack. So a Maj. wil- lard, provost marshal of Washington, was sent to Fairfax to arrest and bring to Washington this imaginary culprit.

Tummaging through the stalls of an old bookstore, hoping to find @ book he has long wanted, and, when found, to possess it for a mere song. All true lovers of books form this habit early in life, and when they visit a strange city the first place they make for is the second-hand book store. If you, for instance, should hap- pen to be in New Orleans, Ameri- ca’s most interesting city, and should find yourself in Vieux Carre, on any One of the streets where the sec- ond-hand furniture stores are crowded together for blocks on top of blocks, you will see a medley of persons that will excite your won- der. Here is a Jesuit, his garments a bit frayed, his eyes glinting be- hind thick lenses, his. shoulders bent as he stoops over-a pile of books which has just come from some old Creole home ‘along with the furniture. The rule in ‘that community is to sell everything to the junk man, and so he takes the books along, unmindful of their value, untodched with their glory, and dumps them on the sidewalk for passersby to grub over. He knows that pretty goon this old Jesuit will be along, and-right behind him will come that newspaper “feller” who is always turning his books upside down, and occasionally a lady with a stiff and formal manner. It puzzles him to see how many people come and how they make for his pile of books and how they root through it like a pig turned into @ patch of tufas. That old Jesuit is the librarian at Loyola University. He has for many years been coming to the Vieux Carre picking up rare books that are to be feund sometimes in “ these old furniture stores. That mewspaper “feller” is writing these lines It was his wont to make & daily visit to the Vieux Carre dur- ing his luncheon hour to see what had been tumbled down on the side- walk since his last visit. And that lady with stiff and formal manner might have been Miss Grace King, the celebrated writer, or Dorothy Dix or a dozen other women who live in the old. French Quarter in houses that respectable citizens scorned, and earn their bread with their pens. I have seen Sherwood Anderson, when he was a denizen of the Vieux Catre, taking up armfuls of old books in his big paws and glancing over their titles. If you know the places and the people, you will soon find many of the noted writers of the country hunting bargains among those old curiosity shops. But New Orleans is not the only place where the old book stores are interesting. In the little city of Co- tlumbia, 8. C., I am informed, is lo- eated the largest secondhand book store on this continent. Old Gittman has been keeping his shop there for centufies, it would seem, and he knows his old books and what they are worth. His clients live all over the world. To one private library I know of he has contributed some- thing like $250,000 worth of second- hand books. That is a lot of books to sell to one man. Today that library, collected through half a century, is. worth $1,000,000 or more, so rapidly do old books grow in value. Two or three years ago a friend of mine in Nashville sent me a large bundle of old newspapers which con- tained a very able series of articles Jne had written in reply to a Harvard _ professor’s foolish writing, that slavery had atrophied the genius of the South, @n error that constantly creeps into the writings of New England men. In this bundle of papers I came across a letter written 40 years ago by the widow. of a celebrated senator from Kentucky, in which she complimented these articles very highly and re- ferred to numerous instances of the flashings of genius in the South from early” times to the outbreak of the war. I read the letter with peculiar interest, for this brilliant woman, Mrs. Archibald Dixon, had written a very able history of the Missouri Com- promise; in fact, it is the authori- tative work on that epochal event.

Miss Murray, it seems, was a lady in waiting to Queen Victoria, member of the an- cient and honorable family of Mur- rays, of Scotland, than whom there is none prouder or nobler. She came ' to this country in 1854 and traveled for two years North and South, in Canada and in Cuba, making notes and seeing things. Her letters, very able and very complimentary to the South, were written to friends at court, and on her return they were made into a book. The book created a furore in England and in this coun- try, and it ended in the dismissal of Miss Muray from court. Naturally, 1 wished to read that book, but I could not find it any- where in this country. None of the second-hand book stores which I patronized had ever seen it or heard of it, so they said. It must, I thought, be like the first biography of Lincoln by his law partner, Nerndon, suppressed and all copies bought up and destroyed; which was another compelling reason why I wanted the book, At last I wrote to my English dealer, C. Howes, St. Leonards-on-Sea. who is said to have a stock of over 1,000,000 volumes, and after some months he sent me an aged and mutilated copy, for which he made me pay 4 pretty price. A few days after getting the volume, and before having. had a chance to read it, I dropped into a curio store in Ashe- ville, N. C., which had just bought a stock of second-hand books from the only dealer in town, and the first volumes I spied were two perfectly good copies of Mise Murray's letters. They were offered for sale at 50 cents ‘the volume, and mine cost me $5. What a sunk and gone feeling I had! I did not open mine until a few days ago and then I sat up all night read- ing it. Surely it is-worth $5 to me. No book on the old South is so in- forming. A few days ago I stopped in front of an F street shop where they al- ways have on the sidewalk three or Aour tables of books ranging from 5 cents each to $1. On the 10-cent table I iound a back that I have plies.a Coveted Treasure. DAVID RANKIN BARBEE tried for 30 years to buy, but could never find. One time I very foolishly offered a very large sum for a copy. This is a litéle religious book, en- titled, “Can It Be False?” It was written in Washington by Congress- man John F. House, of Tennessee, and was published by my father, who was the publishing agent of the Southern Methodist Church. In its day it created as much of a furore as Miss Murray’s letters did, particu- larly the fourth and last chapters, which defines the place and mission of the church and the business of the minister of the Gospel... I remem- ber as a child what was said about this book, and how good men, many of them preachers, abused Col. House for writing it and my father for pub- lishing it. Around it grew up enmi- ~tles that sdddened my father’s life and caused him to pray harder for his enemies than he ever did for his friends. With this little book I picked up two others that I had long wanted, on the same table, all three rare bargains. But the House book was as precious to me as if I had come across a new wonderful story of my father. I could, not get home fast enough; the cars seemed to drag along. And when finally I did reach my humble quarters I sat up df night reading the book. Every page of it revived long forgotten mem- ories of {*> great man who wrote it and of the brave man who had the courage not only to print it, but to make 100 speeches in support of it. I read on and on, looking for the part that made the trouble. There was an admirable essay on Christ and one On Peter and a third on St; Paul, and then came the concluding chap- ter, which was the application. Near to the end I read these thoughtful lines: . “It has always proved an evil day for the church when, losing faith im the efficiency of the gospel to contend with the powers of darkness, She has stretched forth her hand to the State and asked her aid and assistance in suppressing evil sand advancing the cause of God. The hand of Caesar has never been ancizted of Ged to teke chares cf ~~ wah2 his church and lead it on to success- ful warfare against the sins of the world. And whenever the church seeks an alliance or partnership with the State to advance the kingdom of God and his righteousness, the re- sult is a much larger infusion of the spirit of the world into the churca than of the Spirit of God into the world. Whenever the church, in her struggles against the crimes and wickedness of the times, falls back from her intrerniched position behind the word of God, and calls on the State for reinforcements, the world derides her faith in God, and in- stead of advancing his cause by these forbidden means, she lowes her holy flag until the world no longer respects its sanctity.” : I wondered who could gainsay that. It has ever seemed sound to me, looking at it from the sidelines and also from the inside of the church. Did ministers of the gospel quarrel Over such a true statement? They did more than that. They almost tore the church into tatters. But that was only the beginning. Here in my old book I found the real genesis of this historic quarrel in Southern Methodism. It is in these words: “Whenever the minister of the gos- pel leaves his pulpit and mounts the stump to harangue promiscuous crowds as to how they ought to vote on questions of State policy, or stands in his pulpit and, instead of dispen- sing the word of God, takes a text from the Holy Scriptures and, warp- ing it from ‘ite true meaning, com- . pels it to do duty in enforcing some political question, telling his congre- gation how he proposes to vote on the question; and endeavors to prove from his violated text how they ought to vote—whatever his motive may be, whatever evil he may seek to repress, whatever Christian virtue he may seek to promote, he will find in the end that he has inflicted upon him- self and his Master’s cause an injury far transcending any good he has been able to do by the more ques sociable conune- hie. nag ane ces adopt. No matter what evil he de- sires to love by inducing the Btate to mass” for ite suppréssion. he ee eer at OO ae tet A tet ee i eel tig can not pursue the course indicated without an impairment of ministerial character and influence. He has not been appointed to fight sin and pro- mote righteousness in that way, and men of the world know it, if he does not.” I can understand now why the rage, the gnashing of teeth, why the calling of hard names, why the wish- ing to hang my father to the first convenient lamppost. These things were happening 40 years ago over “rum and Romanism:” not last year. You meet such rare people in the old book stores. When I first began book collecting I was a mere boy, just out of college, earning $5 a week, and spending it all for books. One day a fine copy of Jefferson Davis’ ‘Rise and Fall of the Confederacy,” ap- peared on the shelves of my favorite store in Nashville, but the price was beyond my purse, at the moment. My friend, the dealer, who was an hig- torian and lawyer and had been clerk of the Supreme Court, loved books like Gittman and wept every time he sold one. He wanted to keep this Davis and he wanted me, his favorite customer, to have it. We had talked about it for a long time, and he knew how I craved to own it. I showed him the contents of my lean pocketbook and asked him to save it until I could draw another month's wages. His word was as good as his bond, and I had no fears that my Davis would be sold. One day sev- eral weeks later he phoned me to come in a hurry. I knew my Davis was about to go, so I rushed around and found him t:" ° ig rather excited- ly to a young man whose accent be- trayed him to be an Englishman of culture and refinement. “This is Mr. McCarthy,” said my friend. “He wants your Davis.” “He can’t have it,” I said with some emphasis. “I think 7’ --~ get you another copy, if you will let him have this one.” I was obdurate, and the English- man pleaded. He had hunted aill over America for this book, and he wanted to take it back to England with him. He admired Jefferson Datis and some day wanted to write a book about our war. “Are you the Mr. McCarthy who is to lecture here tonight?” I asked. He admitted that he was Justin Huntley McCarthy, poet, novelist, playwright and husband of the cele- brated actress, Cissie Loftus. “Well, I will be horn swoggled,” Said I. “All morning have I been looking for you.” “For me?” he asked in excited voice. “Yes, for you. My city editor has eent me out to find you to interview you.” “But I never give interviews.” “No interview, no Davis,” I said firmly. My friend was wrapping up the Dae vis, and Justin Huntley McCarthy and I sat down in that little old shop and talked for several hours, not - about his work, nor his beautiful and talented wife, nor things in England, nor things he had seen and heard, but about old books and the excitee« ment and pleasure of collecting them, We forgot lunch, press time came and went, and when I got back to the office my city editor was raving. “Where in the hell have you been? Do you see what time it is? You are fired.” It is written out as three sentences, but he spoke it as one. I let him rave on, for firing me was his hobby. And then I sat down and said to him: “Do you remember that old history by John Haywood you have been wanting for so long? Well, I have found it. The price is $10 to the oute- side world. It will cost you $2.” He looked at me in astonishment, uncertain whether I was lying or no, and then smiled as only a true book lover can. My job was still mine. “Now as to where I have heen: Jus- tin Huntley McCarthy and I have been sit in Albert Goodpasture’s store for five hours talking about old books, and he was telling me of some rare bargains he had secured in dif- ferent parts of the world. It took him that long to talk me out of my Da- vis, and I bargained with him for ap interview.” “Well, where is the interview?” , he never gives interviews. He says Come around to his lecture toe Might and that will tell you all he knows.” “Well, I guess you had better hear the lecture. Make it short and snappy. I heard the lecture. I have fore gotten what it was about, but oug long talk is still green in My memory,

E by-paths of Washington have been revised within the last dec- ade to meet conditions result- ing from the adoption of the eight- eenth amendment to the Federal Constitution and the enactment of the Volstead act. They have become more numerous, and some of them more interesting, but leas distinct. Nowadays, when-_one sallies forth into one of them he knows not where he will end. In the “good old days,” when almost any road led to Penn- sylvania avenue—to Shoomaker’s, Hancock's, Mades’, Fritz Reuter’s and the like—a person could take any route with the assurance that sooner or later he would return to his home and loved ones on his own motive power or that of a friend, but now, mo matter how careful he is, or which Way he turns, he is in danger of an ignominious finish. Having had the experience, and made the observations of a mana- ger of a liquor cure resort in the Na- tional Capital in the mellow, easy- going days of the early nineties of the last century, when it was not a fatal misstep for a man to take a drink, but being a freak that neither liked @ saloon nor prohibition but be- lieved that every person should be free to live his own life so long as he aid not injure others, I have sat on the fence and watched the procession. The trail that led to the hooch patch never interested me personally, but try as I did I could not miss it. My friends, including my fox hounds, Ihave suffered from the cleverly de- signed but poorly disguised by-path of the bootlegger. Under the old system the fellow who wanted a drink followed the open way from his office or his home to a well-known booze joint, where a certain appealing foot-rail, and a particular brand of beverage awaited his coming, and gratified his appetite, but today the situation is reversed; the thirsty one remains at his desk, .or by his fireside, until his bootlegger shows up. How quickly, and carefully. the new way developed! How difficult it had been made for the man or woman who would like to forget John Barleycorn to escape! As one goes about his task. there comes a gentle step from a by-path, and without noise or of- fense an elegantly attired visitor en- ters smiling, and apologizing for the intrusion. “Ig the boss in?” he inquires, not meaning any particular person, but one he can have a word with. The quiet, affable manner and per- suasive way of the fellow disarms the office boy or the next in command. While the employe addressed is looking about for the one in charge, the caller surveys the personnel, look- ing for a weak spot, and soon picks one or more prospective victims and finds a way to start conversation that may lead to his by-path . I have a cunning mind. Being somewhat of a physi- oOgnomist I was attracted by his face, his humility, and willingness to -please, or talk with any one.

Bootleggers have become less cau- tious. Many of them have fattened on their trade, without molestation. A few of the ones that crossed my path in the earlier days of prohibi- tion- have served time. I do not wish to be too personal in this story but shall try to draw an accurate picture. I have bought one lot of intoxicating liquor since the adoption of the eighteenth amendment, and that was forced upon me)—One day, several years ago, while discussing the ease with which one could get whiskey in the Capitol, and the House Office and Senate Of- fice Buildings, I declared that I would like to purchase a little sample of “North Carolina corn” to exhibit~to some friends who had never tasted “White Mule,” “Red Buck corn,” “Rabbit Tobacco,” or ony other con- coction with an old-time kick. The conversation that led to this suggestion took place in the office of @ dry member of the House of Repre- sentatives. As I made known my wishes I noticed the secretary to the congressman perked up. The follow- ing day when I called on my rounds he informed me that he could get me some of the “genuine article,” as it was being manufactured in his coun- ty. He asked how much I would like to have, and I told him a pint or a quart would be sufficeht. He replied By BUCK BRYANT that he was afraid he could not hold it to that amount as it would not be worth the trouble. Then I told him two quarts would be all right, but explained I was in no hurry for it. “I think I can get what you want,” said he, and I moved on, feeling that I had given an order for something I did not need or care for. “When do you want that stuff?” the young fellow asked the next day. “Oh, any time within three or four months," I answered, indifferently. The third day, as\I dodged through the hall, trying to forget it, the ac- ating secretary hailed me, saying: “By the way, I have that medicine for you; three quarts.” — “Why, I am sorry you went to the trouble, I was in no rush for it; how much did it cost?” tbe “Eighteen dollars.” “What.in thunde; am I going to do with it?” I inquired. “How can I get it to my office?” “I can manage that: I will take it down there to you this afternoon.” On the dot the package was deliv- ered, and I turned it over to a friend, who had a longing for some of the home grown kind. That was the end of a sad and foolish bargain for me. the congressman, in whose office the deal was made, has gone. I was out -some hard cash, but had gained good experience. “See that Negro?” asked a former congressman from the South of me One day, as a smart automobile, bear- ing a well-dressed colored man. passed, i “Well, he came from my State, and is about as cunning as. they make them,” my companion added. . “He used to be outside man at a large and prosperous downtown garage, where I had my repair work done. I always turned my machine over to him, as he was so friendly and obliging. Three years ago he disap- peared from there, and his going was @ great loss to me. The other day I met him there, dressed about as he is now, and asked him to take charge | of my car. He informed me that he had quit work, retired, explaining that he had approximately $100,000 ‘im Washington banks, and~ a good home, and a high-powered automo- bile. Soe “ ‘Somebody will you a fortune?’ ” I asked. 2 “‘No, sir,” he said; ‘made it boot- legging, and I am square with the Government. I am just out of prison, where I served eight months; I paid a fine of $2,000, and now I am free.’” The former congressman added that the wife of this Negro had cooked for one of his neighbors, and was faith- ful for years. Finally, she said to her employer: “Mrs. B—I am tired and want to stop cooking. My husband has been after me to quit. He says he is making more than Mr. B. and sees no reason why I should be hir- ing out.” The Volstead act has seriously in- terfered with the ancient outdoor pastime of fox hunting. Certain of. the more or lees careless makers of -Paths of theNationsCapital ; hooch use concentrated lye to cut the hard shell from the grain they use. This process speeds up thé man- ufecture. The husk and the lye are cast out, and a hungry dog will eat it, and a meal of the poison results in paralysis. If one of our hounds comes in from a hunt, drégging his hind legs as if some one had hit him on the back, then we know that he has been to a distillery, and eaten mash or worse.. Many fine Gogs die from the garbage they find about _moonshine outfits. Woodlands, and thickets in the vi- cinity of Washington abound in by- paths, and many of them lead to sources of supply. One day, when fol- lowing the hounds, I noticed a narrow, indistinct path that led into heavily timbered bottom land. The keen eye of an older hunter who ac- companied me detected a shoe print in a soft place in the soil. : “That,” he said, “is no dog, fox or = Yabbit path. Somebody has been go- ing in there. Let us see where it ends; the scamp may have set a steel trap.” We made our way through the briers and other undergrowth for several hundred yards, to a large, hol- low log. . “That chap has hid something in here,” observed my friend. That old log, which had lain there in silent, decaying innocence for a quarter of a century, contained fif- teen quart bottles full of corn liquor. It was the cache for a bootlegger, re- cently committed to jail for violating the Volstead act. It is not part of this yarn to say what became of our find. On another occasion a by-path led to a deserted booze-making outfit. It had been used for three or four weeks for a heavy run of Hquor, and abandoned just before officers lo- cated it.

One morning while my dogs were driving a red fox. up and down the land I saw an odd-looking object approaching; the bulk, shape and amble were like those of a slow-mov- ing cow, but I could not see more. than two legs. As it came nearer I recognized my wine friend, - bearing a load of his most attractive drinks. Every pocket held a well-filled flask. I never saw in a grog shop a better assortment, that is, if one stops at the color. “Take a little of this, and “if that does not please you try that,” was the urge. ee E At first I declined, not on accoun ‘of scruple, but I just did not like to mix a good fox race—and it was a dandy—with wine. But, feeling that the hospitable fellow, who had borne three or more gallons of liquid offer- ings in pint bottles in his coat, trous- ers, and shirt a half-mile, would be hurt if I did not try a little. I drank a few swallows of the product of the tomato. Inside of an hour I did not care what happened to the fox the dogs had driven out of my hearing. ‘No Army mule ever had a stronger kick, : ‘ Somme time ago I_went ‘out from Washington to run a favorite fox and found a man with a gun watching for me. “No more hunting on this place,” said he. “I have rented it and do not want you to be racing through here.” That was an unusual experience.

A few days later the new cell of five “held its first meeting, at which the founder instructed the debutants in their duties as members of the or- / ganization.

In this day of transatlantic flights and radio tel®phones it gives one a setback to learn that the sécret associations of professional murderers are as powerful as they were 100° years 4 . - * . (y= of the oldest and most dread- ” ed of the secret societies of the Balkans was the league of Sérbian army officers caHed “Union or Death,” also known as the “Black Hand.” It was this organization which: plotted the murder of Archduke’ Francis Ferdinand and his consort at Sera- ‘fevo in ‘1914, the kindling spark -for ‘the World War. ‘The society — was ‘originally organized by members of the Military Casino in Belgrade, but 24aber’spread all over Serbia and into '%hé- formér Austro-Hungarian do- “fhintons. It was based upon the s0- called cell system. Each cell con- plated of five: members, and it was ‘the’ duty of each new member to “ezquire five more colleagues, thus forming a new cell. Whenever a new cell was ready to be initiated, the ’ founder inserted an advertisement in ‘@ Belgrade newspaper to this effect: _** “New manufacturing enterprise looking for contact with reliable cap- * Ptalists.”’ | ‘Within a few days the founder was “visited bya fellow member, who told him’ to “appear with the new mem- ders in a certain house. Here the in- itiates were led into.a room lit only “by a single candle. In the middle of the room was a table covered with ‘@ black cloth. On the table were placed a crucifix, a dagger and a re- volver. For 10 minutes the new members sat in complete silence. Suddenly a man wearing a mask ap- peared and read to the candidates the oath of initiation which they had to sign. It was a horrible oath, pronouncing dire punishment upon those who should dare violate it, and featuring the obligation to follow blindly the commands of the order. The man in ‘the mask then gave to each new em her the number and the -pass- ‘by which he could make him- _known to fellow members, em- THE SI CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3. the prestige of his friendship, and his unfailing insight into the _ real objectives of character building and citizenship training; have helped more than any other one thing in recent years to educate the public to rere between New York and now —_— everything they heard or learned to the supreme central board of the. or- ganization. They had to shadow peo- ple of importance, and sometimes their fellow members; also to receive and hide fellow menibefs who were pursued by the authorities. They also received the seal of the organiza- tion, bearing an unfurled flag with skull and bones, and on either side of the skull a bomb and a phial of poison. The main purpose of the organiza- tion was to usurp the political pow- ers of the country and to bring about the union of all Serbs by fomenting wars and revolts. Whenever they decided to put a man out of the way, ~ they issued an order to this effect to one of the cells, or to a detachment of their strong-arm squad. Scores of persons were murderéd by the Union of Death before it was superseded by a Tival organization of Similar stripe called the White Hand. This latter organization is still in existence, and Gen. Zivkovitch, the dictator of Ju- go-Slavia, and King Alexander are said to be among its members. It rarely happens that the White Hand orders its own members to put somebody out of the way- For this purpose it has at its disposal a spe- cial organization called the Com!i- tadjis. The title signifies followers of a committee. The comitadjis are irregular military police maintained partly by the state itself, partly by secret political organizations. Each man carries a dagger, a revolver, three bombs, provisions for three days and five pieces of gold. Every secret organization has its own hired murderers, trained not only in their own sinister profession, but also for military service. Their field of activity is the provinces, particu- larly the voadytinge In the big cities the shady political jobs are done by the organizations themselves. If a man disappears or is found mur- dered on a lonely road, the murderer could undoubtedly be found among the comitadjis. But these are pro- tected by the secret organizations, which see to it that the affair is hushed up. Often the comitadjis are employed as terrorists in provinces where the population is not dependable from the particular point of view of the domi- *sBuffalo presented to John H. nam secret organization, Thus, for VER B J regarding Paul Siple, the Scout who accompanied him on his Antarctic trip: “Paul Siple is everything that I think a young man should be.

Its members are mostly army officers and its intia- tion ceremonies are not less queer than those of the Black Hand.

Besides, the organization has certain signs which enables the mem- bers to communicate with fellow members, even in the presence of non- members. It was this organization which several years ago bombed the heads of the government in a church at Sofia and brought about the fall of the cabinet of M.

Their own comi- tadjis are making frequent raids on Jugo-Slavian border villages, and oc< casionally terrorizing political pare- ties in their own country. It hap- pens rather often that these various secret societies war on one another, and in such cases a series of murders ig likely to be committed, without any clew as to the identity of the as- sassins. The death sentence is usual<- ly pronounced by the leading group amid weird ceremonies, and either the group charged with the task of executing the sentence or the leader of the comitajis band receives the or- der in the form of a piece of paper, on which the name of the victim is written with blood. In such cases it ls of no avail for the condemned person to flee the country; the as- sassins follow him everywhere and get him, even in Vienna, Paris or London. There have been at least two sensational murder cases during the past few years in which both the killers and their victims were members of warring secret societies. One was’ the assassination of Todor Panica, former leader of a Macedonian secret society, who was shot by a young woman during a performance in the Vienna Opera House. The other was the murder of Cena Bey, of Albania, who was killed in a court- room in Prague. Of course, the killers themselves ‘are under coercion: they know if they do not execute the orders of their in- Visible masters they themselves will be put out of the way. They can not claim protection from the authori-- ties, because they never know whether gr not the chief of police or a power- ful cabinet minister is a member of one of the secret orders. And they do know that their movements are watched by the Argus eyes of their Own associates. Treason or disobe- dience means certain death, while by dutifully committing a murder the killer takes no chances; he knows that his are re protect him, F Wageede hid ges question is, Why do not the governments of the Bai- kan countries suppress these baneful secret societies? The answer seems to be that most of the leading statesmen themselves are members of tlfese same societies, and the only way toextri- cate themselves from the iron grip of @ certain society is to take the risk of joining a rival organization. There has been but one case in the past twenty years where a powerful secret society has been dissolved, and that was the case of the Black Hand in Servia, the leader of which, Col. Dra- guting, was executed, while 69 other members were put in prison. The only effect of this drastic action was that a few months later the White Hand was organized, the secret society which was responsible for the murder of several Croatian representatives in the Jugosliavian Parliament, as well as for a series of other crimes of vio- lence. The flag of the Black Hand-——the skull with bones, bomb and poison— still casts its dark shadow upon the Balkans.

Her mother is impractical and content to live on credit while she talks about the past glories of the fam- ily. At the annual Rodeo Pam meets Chester Hilliard, promising young man who has come to town to work in his uncle’s bank. They jali in love immediately. One night they go for a drive in the mountains and the car runs out of gas. Stranded; with no way of getting back, they spend the night | in an old shack. The nezt morn- ing they are picked up.by Dr. Broome, father of Pam’s best girl Jriend, Maisie. Next day Pam re- ceives a note from Mrs. Broome, asking her to come over to the Broome house. Mrs, Broome, a ‘narrow-minded and self-righteous woman, places the worst interpre- tation on the incident and at- tempts to humble Pam. CHAPTER 13. bb E had no gas,” the girl ex- W Plained patiently. But sme was inwardly sick with terror and shame. “Coming up the hill the car—one of Mr. Porter Hil- liard’s cars—simply stopped short. What could we co? It was bitter _ cold—it gets frightfully cold between those mountainse——”’ “You sat in’ the car all night? That’s—obviously—impossible!” ejac- ulated Mrs. Broome, nettled in her turn at not being able to iand her fish more promptiky. The girl was showing fight. “No. There was a sort of—shanty, mear there, that Chester knew of—it belongs to his uncle. We went there.” “How do you mean, shanty?” - “Well—a little ramch house, down there a mile or two above Hatter’s.” “Oh? I know that place. But that’s a seven or eight-room farm- house; I should hardly call that a _ shanty!” said Mrs. Broome. “It’s fur- mished, isn’t it?” “Well, yes—after a fashion.” “I think I’ve been down there with dear Jessy Stokes,’ said Mrs. Broome ' thoughtfully, pursing her lips. “They used to have a Portuguese man living there. There’s no caretaker there now ?’’ How Pamela hated her! How she hated her! “No, nobody at all. That was it!” she admitted, grudging every word, every concession. “If there had been @ man there, anybody there—with an old horse and cart—anything! But there wasn’t.” “So you, made a fire and stayed there all night?” The cruel shrewdness of the cross- examination seemed to shrivel Pam- ela’s heart. “Mrs. Broome, what else could we do?” she said desperately, youthfully. “When people—when people are wrecked on a desert: island nobody questions them, nobody supposes tnat they intended anything wrong!” “My dear Pamela, we are not talk- ing of shipwrecks;..they are acts of We are talking of a perfectly modern young girl, who, after a day at the rodeo and evening of dancing, goes at midnight,” Mrs. Broome re- capitulated it with a relish, “to a questionable roadhouse with a man she hardly knows. If your father were living, Pamela,” the other woman. interrupted .herself suddenly, “do you realize that he might. send for Chester Hilliard today and de- mand that he mafry you?’ “Oh, nonsense!” the _ girl said, bursting into uncomfortable laughter. “If it were Maisie, I should feel ft ‘was the only possible thing,” Maisie’s mother persisted solemnly. “And Jessy Stokes.” she added, playing a trump deliberately, “is of the same Opinion.” Pamela’s color faded a little. It Was all very well to have this spec- tacled matron, who retained, even after 22 yenrs of married life, the “academic ideals of the dean of a girls’ school—whjch she had been all very well to have her criticize and mnoralize in her own absurd way. But to bring young Mrs. Stokes into it was quite a different, and a much more serious, matter. Jessy Hilliard Stokes had been the sister of that charming Jimmy whose death had indirectly brought Chester to Carterbridge a few weeks before. Hier father, Porter Hilliard, was on every important directorate in town, and Jessy, married to one of the a bankers of Carterbridge, was y preeminent, president of the Cinderella Ciub, deep in theatricals tnd charities and concerts and golf and everything else that. concerned the very nicest upper circle of Car- terbridge society. i “Jessy came in here to speak to @octor about: poor little Ursula,” Mrs. Broome said, seeing that she had made an impression, and therewith, “and Jessy agrees with me it, aswell, as most un- fortunate, to:say the least!” - “And I entirely. with you and Pamela . tyying to speak lien snd easily. “Mind you, Mrs. ‘ " she asserted courageousty, ‘ “a great deal more than what we did last night goes on at every dance— kissing and petting and all the rest of it! But technically—technically — it was wrong, and I'm heartily sorry. I'm willing to tell the girls that—to admit that I did a silly thing and that a miserable lot of accidents fol- lowed # “Willing, you mean, to tell Maisie and Sue Rose and Carol that you and aman you met Wednesday spent last night in an old Hilliard ranch house! Honestly, Pamela,” said Mrs. Broome, “I don’t know what society is com- ing to when a girl can say that she has no objection to confessing. such an escapade to her friends!’ There was a short silence, in which Pamela attempted to look uncon- cerned and succeeded merely in jiook- ing rebellious. Then the girl said sulkily: “I don’t see what my having met Chester Hilliard last Wednesday has to do with it!” “It has this to do with it. Doctor said two or three times that a grand passion—a really deep love—he could understand and forgive! But that to go off carelessly with a man you hardly knew—No, Pam,” the older woman said sharply, infilexibly, “it doesn’t bear analyzing, my dear, and if you could have seen the tears in doctor’s eyes, and seen poor Jessy, standing in that very window, staring out. and saying, ‘I can’t believe it of Pamela Raleigh!’ you'd realize that it is very serious indeed.” “A grand passion—why, but that’s nonsense!” the girl said, laughing nervously. “There’s never been any talk of a grand passion between Ches- ter and me—we're just friends.” “Well, I.am afraid that you have done your friend a-very poor service,” Mrs. Broome paused. “For Jessy feels now that it will be impossible to send him an in- vitation to the Cinderella Club—poor boy, he would’ of course, have had one of them, if it hadn’t been for this,” Now for. the’ first time Pamela showed agitation. “That would be a cruel and sense- less thing to do,” she said hotly, briefly. “Jessy doesn’t want to put it to the girls, she doesn't want to marx him Or mark you,” the older woman said, with an air of consideration. “She merely means to let the matter of his invitation drift, and she—I must teil you frankly, Pam—she feels that the only thing for you to do is hand in your resignation.” There was a moment of silence in the overfurnished, bright. room, witn its books and lamps and vases and etchings and clocks and trays and photograph frames. Pamela, leaning forward in a rather high, uncomfort- able chair, regarded her hostess stead- ily, with hostile, shining eyes. Mrs. Broome returned the gaze equably, her head a little on one side, her expression pitying, yet firm. “Resign from the Cinderellas?” the girl asked in a whisper, after a while. “I really am afraid so, Pamela. That would be better than being asked for your resignation, wouldn’t it?” “But—-but———”” Pamela fell silent. “I couldn't imagine the Cinderellas— without me,” she muttered, blinking, biting her lips, clearing her throat. “Jessy and I,” Mrs, Broome said judicially, “felt that that ie the wis-. est thing for you to do.” “Why, but what would my mother think—-what would every one think? Every one knows it’s my club—every one knows that I’m in everything the Cinderellas do—the Mardi Gras and the theatricals’ and the Hospital Fund!” Pamela stammered. “I coula- n’t explain—and besides, whatever the appearances were, I didn’t do anything wrong, Mrs. Broome.” Silence. Mrs. Broome continued to regard her thoughtfully, dispassion- ately. “Appearances matter, don’t they, Pamela?” It doesn’t concern you and me what people do, does it?—but it does concern us what they seem to do. And girls—girls must respect themselves, or how can any of the rest of us respect them? Even on your ownft account, Pamela, was that a fine thing—was that an.admirable thing to dd.last night? “Now, my dear, you must make up your mind that the simplest way out, and the quietest way out, is to resign from the Cinderellas,” she went on, as Pamela, dazed, was still. “That means that there will be no discus- sion and no split. Jessy told me frankly this morning that some of the older crowd, the married set, have been pretty well disgusted with the way some of the Carterbridge girls and boys have been acting. She said to me that she would not tolerate certain things in the club. ‘Even if he is my own cousin,’ she said, ‘Ches- ter Hilliard can not introduce immor- ality into Carterbridge.’ ” “That,” Pamela protested, scariet cheeked, “‘that is absolutely unfair! He's a stranger here—he didn't know anything about Hatter’s—he only got here last Wednesday———” | “I'm afraid that you don’t make a very good case for yourself there, Pamela. You did know about Hat- ter’s, didn’t you? case is this: We can not—doctor I and Jessy and some of the others— _ ie ae said neatly, as she . ‘But the whole ™~ if they knew—we can not overlook this episode. We wouldn’t be the right sort of fathers and mothers if we did. We can not say that you didn’t mean anything wrong and that it was a harmless escapade-— no, it’s too much. If things of this kind are to be tolerated, then there’s nothing left of honor or decency at all. “I don’t want to be hard on you Jessy herself said that there was no need for publicity, or discussion— nobody but ourselves need know. But you must resign from the Cinder- elias.” It was a nightmare. She couldn't be awake, Pamela felt, here in the “Yamiliar Broome sitting room, list- ening to this. She wet her dry lips, looked up from a study of the rug. ; “What reason could I give, Mrs. Broome?” . “That your mother couldn’t afford it, for one thing,” the older woman said readily, unexpec Fy. The proud fair head went up again and Pamela’s eyes shone black. “My mother is giad to pay that $20 a year—ehe wants ys to have every- thing.” . CHAPTER XIV. HE felt her throat thicken and her eyes sting; she was going to add- the last triumph to this merciless woman’s conquest by crying like 4 baby before her. “But your mother is a poor woman, my dear child. How much older are you going to be before you realize that?” asked Mrs. Broome compas- sionately. “Sevéral of us; Mrs. Beaver and Mrs. Catherwood and myself, have been watching you for years, watching you spend your mother’s little income for clothes like the other girls, plea- sures and extravagances far, far be- yond your means! thought of helping her, Pamela, like @® woman; instead of trying to hold your cwn with the few girls in this town whose fathers can afford’ to give them everything? There are fine things about you, my dear——” To get out of this room. Ta, get out of this room. To get home, to her own quiet room, and lie there until she died. . “Maisie and you were little-girl chums, and she loves you dearly,” pursued the modulated, admonitory voice, “but-seven Maisie has said to me sometimes, ‘Mumsie, if I were in Pam’s place I think I’d help you—I wouldn't want to see you worried—’ ” “I don’t believe it!” Pamela inter- rupted fiercely. “Don’t—how do you mean?” Mrs. Broome asked, bewildered and incred- ulous. “Don’t believe me?” “You must have misunderstood Maisie. She's loyal,” Pam said des- perately. “She does love you, my dear, as we all did—no, I'll say as we all do,” said the other, a little touched in spite of herself. “It’s only that we want you to live up to the possibili- ties of your own fine nature; Pam. And now is your chance. Resign from the CindereJjas, get a good position downtown, stand by your dear little mother, who has had so much trouble! And Carter, too—doctor always says that there is a great deal that is good in that boy———” “I don’t know anyone who thinks there isn’t,” Pamela said with a sur- prised and resentful laugh. “I mean't—about being expelled from. the Cinderella Club.” . Mrs.‘ Broome said delicately. The girl flung up her head, looked at her with dilated eyes. There was a moment of silence. “Carter! Why—why, what are you talking about ” Pamela said bluntly, too stunned to remember her man- ners. “You knew that, Pamela.” “Knew what?” “That Carter—why, that was three «. weeks ago!” exclaimed Mrs. Broome, hearing, = the back of her own mind, her own Ley eager voice retailing these detalis the doctor, later on. Pamela, scarlet, was staring at her with a thinly *velled hatred in her eyes. The girl was breathing hard, her one conscious impulse was to say furiously, “It’s a lie.” “Cartér has been drinking dis- gracefully, Pamela,” Mrs. Broome said gently, regretfully, “and in «4 gpecial meeting of the directors this was decided on some time The girl took the shock bravely, swallowing once with a throat, raising her chin F ctaoaye facing the other woman w » des- perate young face. “I’m sorry, I .didn’t know,” she said briefly. She got to her feet, bowed jerkily, as a child might bow, toward the d no reason a gossip—there won't be any “Not unless you force it by mak- ing the chub ask for your. resigna- tion, Pamela.” Mrs. Broome said cheerfully, rising also, “Some day my dear,” she added, “you may see this ap a turning point in your life. gy igo If it’s any satisfaction to to know that you've ruined my life Haven’t you ever ~ - Sam's - mother, ~Carol have gone = Tahoe for two for nothing, you hhve it!” “It was ‘nothing to go to Hatter’s at midnight; alone with a man, Pam? You've forgotten that part of it. The miracle is,” said Mre. Broome, “that doing the things that you do, you girls aren’t continually in some such trouble.” She laid her hand on the girl’s arm. “We don't gain happiness by trying to force ourselves into po- sitions that are not natural to us, my dear,” she said. “The duty that lies nearest—that’s the solution of all our lives. Far better hold a good position and lift the bitrden of responsibility from that little mother of yours. than fight to hold your place in society—at too high a cost. Why, many of our finest women are not society women——”" “Good-by, Mrs. Broome,” Pamela “said shortly, at the door. “Good-by, my dear.” The older woman felt a little rebuffed, but the girl, of course, was hurt and shamed, and she could afford to be generous. She watched the slender figure go Gown the garden path, between the gillyfiowers and marigolds and plum- ed phiox, and sighed. Maisie might feel badly about this. But it would serve to. teach unmanageable youngsters a lesson—scare them a little.

She struggled with flowers, dessert and salad, dust and dishes, all “ay long, and in the end looked tired and excited, as indeed she was, and thought bitterly to herself that. never had things gone so badly or the old rooms looked so shabby. They had to have the gas lighted in the frosted globes high overhead; it seemed to accentuate the dim, dis- colored wall paper and the worn car- pets, the slitted red rep hangings that showed vistas of dark overgrown garden through high, dirty windows. “I don’t know what we can do,” Mrs. Raleigh had said, in reference to this last detail. “We can’t very well wash ‘em, an’ if: you haven't money for servants, well, you haven't, that’s all!” When the meal had dragged itself to a subdued and uncomfortable close, Pamela and Chester walked downtown to a movie and had their first words together, alone. “How goes it, Pamela?” the man asked sympathetically, as they went through the bright splotches of light from the high street lamps and into the black shade of the trees and out into the white light again. “Oh, I guess I’m in TCoventry,. all right.

GUN BRULE IN THE RING, HE solution of the racketeer’s problem was already impending when the late Tex Rickard, Jack Dempsey and Jack Kearns ushered im the platinum age of the fight game. The problem ,was how the racketeer could h the highly profitable connection with the fight game which had been his since pro- fessional boxing’s introduction into America. : It looked pretty hopeless. At this period, he was merely a crooked gambler with a medium-sized “nut,” or bank-roll, just sufficient to finance his numerous raids on “sucker” bet- tors. His methods were simple. He went to a fighter, paid him @ certain sum for “taking it on the chin,” and then bet the opponent would win the fight. The cost of prostituting an approachable fighter was not prohibi- tive because pugilists received a per- centage of the gates, and the gates Were never very high, rarely as high as $100,000. The cost went up, nat- urally, with a fighter’s position in the pugilistic world, Champions came higher than pa” “--s. But the racke- teer for years had been making a good honest living trimming suckers. Now, suddenly, the whole complex- ion of his racket had changed. Boxers had made their own terms. Championships, worth from $50,000 and to half a million in the old days, climbed to a new par of from quar- ter of a million to two, three and five million. And the suckers were wising up. Newspapers all over the country carried as tail-pieces to all fight stories the admonition, “Don't bet on fights!” His only alternative was to buy a “plece” of a champion, or of any likely boy, and either bring him into the championship or protect him in it. . That would take .more money than the old-style racketeer ever pos- sessed or ever could possess. In the case of the likely boy, it meant a precarious investment with slow and uncertain returns. .In the case of @& champion, it meant a. tremendous initlal cost. Im the case: of both, it meant thousands of dollars for “protection,” which includes everything from the buying of officials and crooked de- cisions to the paying out of fat sums to opponents to lay down. The fight game had become an industry and you can't sit in and play an industry on a shoe-string. What was the poor racketeer going to do? The solution literally flowed out of @ bottie of bootleg liquor. Pro- hibition. It kited the racketeer into the ranks of the “nouveau riche” and allowed him to sit in on the brand- new industry known as the Fight Racket. It also changed the type of the fight racketeer from a dishonest but more or less sportsmanlike and harmiess grafter to a gangster, a gun- man, a killer and a crook, operating as a fair imitation of a sportsman; éoncealing a rotten heart under the last word in tuxedoes. The Platinum Age of the Fight Game came in of a late broiling mid- summer afternoon. It came so sud- denly that the old-style’ racketeer found himself doomed to oblivion. The modern racketeer had not yet appeared, but the conditions which were to make his appearance inevi- table were already upon us. On July Fourth, 1919, Jack Demp- sey. managed and seconded by Jack Kearns, fought the giant, Jess Wil- tard, for the heavyweight champlion- ship of the world. The battle was staged by Tex Rickard. : On that afternoon when Dempsey won the championship by flooring Willard elevefi times in three rounds, fracturing his jaw and destroying the hearing iff his left ear permanentiy, the Wartime Prohibition Law was four days old. Designed as a measure to conserve grain during the war, it had become effective om-June 30. the eighteenth (prohibition) amend- ment itself, prohibiting “the manu- facture, sale or transportation of in- toxicating Hquors within, the tmpor- tation thereof into; or the exportation . from the United States -and tory'éubject to the jurisdiction everagé jrirpeses”, | fight, and was to become a national law six months later, on January 16, 1920. When Jack Kearns, immediately after the Massacre of Toledo an- nounced in his raucous, “you-go-to- hell” yoice that the heavyweight championship of the world was worth $1,000,000 to him and Dempsey, the racketeers Indulged-in hearty laugh- ter. When the two Jacks started to cash in immediately by vaudeville, moving- picture engagements and “personal appearances” of the new champion at amusement parks, they stopped laughing. One of the things that halted their mirth was the immediate Jump in the. prices drawn down by top-notch fighters in all classes. They demand- ed and received thousands for ring appearances-.which heretofore had netted them merely hundreds. The percentage system was sliding into the discard. The guaranf@e had come to stay. On New Year’s Day, 1920, the Walker law, permitting bouts to the limit of fifteen rounds to a decision became effective in New York. A week later Tex Rickard overrode the opposition of other fight promoters who sought to hire old Madison Square Garden on a percentage basis, by leasing the his- toric arena for $200,000 a year and $80,000 taxes. Amd a week-and a day after that, the eighteenth amendment became operative. upon us, If you remember the coming of pro- hibition, you will call to mind the period of uncertainty which attended the first month of its existence. Honest saloon keepers disposed of all their liquid wares for a song and went in for Florida submarine real estate or a trip back to “the ould sod.” od Prohibition was. — one — —- -— Fake fights, fake decisions, “div- ing” (which is the expressive vernac- ular for a fighter’s deliberately stick- ing out his jaw to get knocked out), winning when he is struck squarely in the stomach five inches above the belt, because the referee calls it a foul, threatening fighters with death if they don’t “lay down,” trying to intimidate fight writers by calling up their wives and threatening to kidnap their children if the writers don’t “lay off” a fighter in whom the racketeers are interested, taking. 4 piece of a fighter from hits owner at Dorada puts._his lines, — draw with Jack McCarron and lost to Tommy Robeson. ‘The season of 1922 netted him much gfief/ True, he demonstrated his superiority over Mc- Carron ‘by. defeating him in ten rounds and’ winning four other bouts, but he was knocked .out twice, once by Augie Ratner in the .first and again by Young -Fisher.in the third. These are the only times he ever kiss- ed the canvas as a light-heavyweight. Those two knockouts seemed to season him, much asa hot blast burns the alloy out of pure steel. Delaney became one of the sweetest boxers in the modern ring. _Essen- tially he was a counterfighter, a fencer, fighting “way back of his hands,” picking an opponent’s. léads out of the air and yeplying with a wallop that In 50° per cent of the cases spelt K. O. Then, behind an aimost impenetrable defense, he de- veloped aggressiveness and dazzling speed. By 1924, he had struck his stride, In that year he whipped such good fighters as Tommy Loughran, George Robinson and Pat scored five knockouts, among the vic- tims being Paul Berlenbach, the Brooklyn slugger, who,was later. to become champion of the lightweight division, The only fight he lost was the one with Jimmy Slattery, who is now the recognized National Boxing Association lightweight champion. The next year he added to his belt the scalps of several noted ring war- riots. Tiger Plowers, the great negro fighter, who was later to become welterweight champion, went down twice before the Frenchman’s mighty fists, once in the second and once in the fourth round. The Frenchman added three more knockouts © to those two, and lost twice, once to Nn ae Oe ae RN ane, Ne Sin, an Api vane ; The great fight between Tom Hyer and Yankee Sullivan for $10,000. Millions of simple Americans be- lieved that John Barleycorn was dead and liquor was a thing of the past. And there was a great rejoicing among the religious rackcteers, - clergymen who had put it over. ~ But our racketeer knew human nature He knew that you couldn't legislate a national thirst out of exis- tence. He bought what good liquor he could, imported more by the ship- load, renovated wood alcchol and piped bonded liquor out of Govern- ment warehouses with the connivance of the guards. When the drunken bum ceased be- ing a pest and a community disgrace, and became a social institution, and when the honest saloonkeeper. forsook his dampened subdivisions o1 returned fed up with ‘the ould country” and , dropped back into the only business he knew, the racketeer had the booze _Mmafket cornered. Fighting and the fight game was now an industry. The tewly rich racketeer, gangster and gunman knew quite a: bit about it. Naturally, his money sought imvestment there. He sat in @s a poteritial “taker” om the platinum age. He is sitting there to- day. That’s what makes the fight racket smelt. Looked at through the eyes of the racketeer, the fight would take on a different vista from that presented to the rabid fan. who .tears a lung’ out wyelling the ,adminition to >is faworite ’ *hauler of Keiotke the big buim*<old.” the. miration. gun point—all these. little things are routine in the fight racket. No racketeer ever admits indulging in any of these things, but when one of them does, the others admit it for him, not with rancor, but’ with ad- “That bozo sure slipped over another fast one.” This tribe of smart fellows have an explanation for many things, for the strange reversal of form, for instance, of Ovila Chapdelaine, the French Can- adian swordsman of the ring, .who fights under the name of Jack De- laney. Delaney changed from 4 world’s light-heavyweight champion, master boxer and lethal puncher, to a heavyweight with a pronounced penchant for kissing the canvas. The explanation may or may not be true, as many other explanations and alleged _ happenings . quoted in this instaliment.. Buf they are all in- teresting if for no other reason than because they reflect the character. of’ the minds of men who have a great deal to say about some of our best current fighters. These instances are cited because they are typical. Taking Monsieur Chapdelaine, alias "Jack Delaney. He enters the record books im 1919 with three victories and a knockout.

The thing that made it look fishy was the fact that Delaney < climbed through the ropés a 3-to-1 favorite. The decision was just. It was Ma- loney’s fight by a mile. “3 The Canuck was then matched against Paolino Uzcudun, the Basque Woodechopper. This. time the odds were. against him -- and Delaney seemed to have regained his old form and speed. The Basque, reached him frequently, however. It was a.good fight, fairly even, when. suddenly, in the fifth round, Uzcudun sent @ straight right under Delaney’s. heart. It drove the Canuck back on. his heels but he rallied quickly and went after his man, He was stepping in, setting - for one of his Iong lefts to - the Basque’s jaw, when the referee raised his right hand, “Your fighton a foul,” he said. ~ Delaney immediately crumpled and registered agony, holding himself be- low the belt. There was a squawk from»spectators and bettors punctu- ated by loud cries of, “In the bag,” - but the New York Boxing: Commis- sion upheld the referee's decision. It is a. significant fact, however, that that referee has not officiated. since. Delaney’s last appearance seems to have brought him to the nadir of a brilliant and valorous career. His . opponent was Jack Sharkey, probably the best heavyweight in the ring to- day, not barring Gene Tunney or George Godfrey, the giant Negro: De- laney stepped from his corner into one of Sharkey's rights-and* went im- mediately to the canvas. Ordinarily, there would have. been little thought of such a swift ending. There is little doubt in’ the minds of most-fight experts that Sharkey could whip Delaney, at his best, with the added poundage he cafried. But in-: vestigation disclosed that Delaney had loafed in his training, doing little or . no work while he was-supposed to be preparing for the bout: - Seeking a reason for the Canuck’s terrible bust as a heavyweight, the theory that he was either outclassed or had deteriorated was immediately ‘tossed into the discard.

POE. T = books by well-known Wash- | ingtonians appeared on the book reviewer's desk last week, “The Private Correspondence of Nicolo Machiavelli,” by Orestes Ferrera, Am- béessador from Cuba to the United States, and “Scraps of Paper,” by that inimitable raconteur, Marietta Min- nigerode Andrews. True to its earlier promise, the lit- erary circle of the Capital is growing more and more impertant year by year. Publishers have discovered that ‘practically every Washingtonian of note carries a MS. in his pocket, ready. for a tempting offer. ' Mrs. Coolidge has joined the ranks of presidential wives who have put their memoirs of the White House on paper. It is recalled that Mrs. William Howard Taft wrote an en- tertaining volume of reminiscences after she left the Executive Mansion. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson has not suc- -. @umbed to the temptation as yet, but it is an open secret that she keeps an eagle eye on the gigantic task of editing the late President’s life and letters. In the private correspondence of Nicolo Machiavelli, Ambassador Fer- rera found material for a fascinating volume just published by the Johns Hopkins Press of Baltimore. He ded- icates the work to the Italy-American Society of Washington. It will be noted that some famous ‘letters are given in full, and it is the first time that they have been trans- lated into English. The flower of b. these letters has been collected in the present volume, and Dr. Ferrera de- serves the gratitude of those inter- ested in the literature of the Italian Renaissance for making these remark- able human documents accessible in the English language. Of this Italian of the sixteenth cen- tury whose name became the synonym for -mental trickery, the ambassador gives us new pointe of view. And -he does it through the impartial and ‘satisfying method of letting the man speak for himself thtough his private correspondence. That he survives in history almost by accident is inferred by the author when he sums up hig ‘life story. ‘Yet we are reminded that private correspondence is not always the most reliable truth. Some. people write with an eye to the future and with the hope that even in the. writer's lifetime they may fall into “the hands of those it is most de- _ glrous to impress. ‘The ambassador in his sketch which precedes the letters has given us a colorful picture of Machiavelli. It is written in the dispassionate vein one naturally expects from a doctor of jurisprudence as well as ambassa- dor. Wividness of phrasing adds to its charm. | * ‘The ambassador is to be congratu- lated upon the scholarly product which isa distinct contribution to the eee of that particular oe authorities have called gerode Andrews —_ will deny this.

For some it is adventure, the unceasing search for the unusual; others are lured by the yellow gleam of gold and the treasure, while still others try to find in far lands a pan- acea and nepenthe for heartaches and sorrows at home. But whatever the reason, Mr. Russell found the story behind each voyaging. He has the graphic art of the story teller to a degree which promises him a foremost place among the writers of his time. Rich treasure trove is discovered now and then in the fall output of poetry.” To this class belongs “Time’s Profile,” Py Hildegarde Planner. (The MacMillan Co., New York). Miss Planner has a vigorous. pen and pitches her songs in a major key. Yet they do not lack beauty or grace be- cause of this. Deep emotion skilfully portrayed prevails in them and her verse is exquisite in its imagery. Miss Flanner uses a variety of verse forms with which to convey her thoughts, ranging in type from the quatrain to the sormnet,-.and even experimenta! unmrhymed verse. A fine example of her use of the sonnet form is shown in one entitled simply: Sennet, We have a thousand deaths to dic each day.

For instance, Sidney Webb (now a real live lord) has a whole libraryful to his credit. es . . a2 During the last Labor administra- tion in England some very unkind stories—fathered by political op- ponents, methinks—went the rounds of Mayfair dinner tables based on the unfamiliarity with social customs of certain statesmen. One of the most amusing centered around a Laborite, who, with his lady, was present at an important political dinner. He developed a rare liking for the champagne served with the meal and drank deeply of it. His wife, perceiving this, became greatly agitated and to a friend inquiring the cause, she replied: “Me shoes are tight; me corsets are tight; and now me ‘usband’s tight. I want to go ‘ome.” . . * * There are many theories as to how Sydney Porter came to take the nom de plume “O. Henry.” Some are far- fetched. Others more convincing. The latest and, to me, the most likely, is suggested by Robert. H. Davis. “It has recently been established,” he says (in “Bob Davis Abroad”), “that the keeper of the night watch in the Cleveland institution, where Sydney Porter was confined was named Orrin Henry.” That sounds reasonable. a a * = Bob Davis credits Grahum Moffatt, who wrote “Bunty Pulls the Strings” —happy memories!—with these two Scotch stories, both new to me: One is about a Highlander who was fished from a river and declared dead. Bary ait sure he’s deid?” asked a relati “He's s deid all richt. They got him out and went through his pockets, but he didna’ move.” The other ig of two Scots com- peting for a half-crown (60 cents) as to which could remain the longer under water. They are still search- ing for the bodies: * . * = “We—the Scotch—are the only race that has never issued a national pro- test against being madé light of,” gossiped a Scot in Scotland to Bob Davis. “Our inherent thrift has been misconstrued to the extent that it is now regarded as imony. Dr. Johnson started the ball rolling by his definition of the farthing: “*A coin used by the Scotch for the bestowal of large legacies.’ “That gentlemen also said that ‘the Scotch have a sense of humor be- cause it is a gift." * * . The impudence of literary buc- caneers ere the International Copy- right law arrived is amusingly illus- trated by a story about Wordsworth told in H. M. Paull's delightful book, “Literary Ethics.” Wordsworth once received a letter from M. Baudry, a French publisher, asking for a sketch of his life to be prefixed to an edi- tion of his works—pirated, of course —which Baudry was about to pub- lish. * = . * The poet was naturally indignant at his barefaced notice of thievery. But he was also amused at the form Baudry’s proposal took. “You need not trouble too much about. detailed accuracy,” wrote the French publisher. “Piquancy is our Fortunes were made out of the dramas adapted from. Mrs. Henry Wood's “East Lynne,” says Mr. Paull. Of this popular novel there were no less than seventeen versions from 1874 to 1908, several running at the same time.

And to add to the irony of the situation, one adapter actually sued another for in- fringement of his copyright in tne alterations he had made. a * * ° . Even sermons by famous preachers were not immune from the pirate who took them down in shorthand, put them into type, and sold them to other clergymen. Spurgeon, the cel- ebrated preacher, tells of a certain parson who delivered a discourse in which occurred this passage: “On account of your sins, and your neglect of the House of God, your wantonness and your gluttony, the anger of the most Hizh is provoked, and therefore is this great plague come upon you, and death is raging in every street.” . . * * When the sermon was finished the Officials of the township came to know where this plague was and what deaths had happened. “Oh!” said the orderly reader of sermons, “I do not know where it is, but it was’ in my sermon, and so I was obliged to read it to you.” . * * ° Browsing in my copy of Campbell's “Lives of the Chief Justices” a night or two since, I was amused by a story about Lord Mansfield, celebrated judge of the eighteenth century. He was trying a case which arose from the collision of two ships at sea. One witness was a sailor, who, having taken a large share of grog before coming into court, felt correspond- ingly bold and reckless. He began his testimony by saying: “At the time I was standing abaft the binnacle.” : . * a Mansfield interrupted him by say- ing: “Where is ‘abaft the binnacie?’” Upon which the sailor exclaimed, loud enough to be heard by all pres- ent: , ; “A pretty fellow to be a judge and not know where abaft the binnacle is.” — Instead of threatening to commit the fellow for contempt, Mansfield gravely replied: “Weill, my friend, fit me for my office by telling me where ‘abaft the binnacle’ is. You have already shown me the meaning of half seas over.” a + * * Mention of sailors and—grog, re- calls the story of a hard-drinking and artistic swearing skipper who “got re- ligion.” ,He dropped both vices simul- taneously. The crew was dumb- founded and dismayed. It was de- cided that something must be done about it. Thereupon every Jack man aboard conspired to get, and keep, the “old man” mad. Of course, they suc- ceeded. After a most trying time of it, the skipper summoned the men aft and proceeded to give them “What Ho!” in forcible, but clean, language. He wound up? “And, now, may the Lord have mercy on your souls. You know what I mean, you beauties.” « . * And réminds me of a similar story President Wilson told at the first meeting of his Cabinet on March. 6, 1913. Some fifteen cameramen had kept up a steady fire until the Presi- dent became impatient and ordered them to be off. After they left Presi- dent Wilson told the Cabinet that he was reminded of a very irascible man of erratic habits and dangerous prac-~- tices who betame converted at a re- vival. The necessity of his being pa- tient and restraining his temper had been emphasized by his spiritual ad- viser. + 7 - . Several days later, in a meeting of his old associates over -which he was presiding, the discussion grew very heated. Vehement protests were made against some of his rulings. Finally, members began*to throw things. For a time, the convert maintained his poise, but when a few particularly decayed eggs reach- ed him, he drew out his revolver and shouted: “This damn Job business is going to last just two seconds longer.” David FP. Houston relates the anec- dote in_“Eight Years With Wilson's Cabinet.” + . e An occasion on which Field shal Earl Haig, during his s in India, fell a victim to the much dis- puted Indian rope trick (in which an’ ly keen on seeing this trick so one day a noted fakir turned up at a station where the famous soldier 13 > es > ; ot ee eee = round the fakir.

Haig and the others sat with their eyes turned up- wards. . . e “Then the boy was brought ward and the old fakir mumbled something.

E. Gladstone, “Grand Old Man” of Victorian politics, who, perhaps unconsciously, made it pos- sible for users of postcards to rite @ message on both sides. It came about this way, says Viscount Glad- stone—in “After Thirty Years,’ a biography of his distinguished father: “He (W E. Gladstone) had a habit acquired in office, of signing his name on the envelope and he did this one day on a postcard to one of us. It was surcharged because the signature was not connected with the address. Here were two principles— economy in using both sides of the postcard and the rights of the public. He entered the lists against the post- office and over the halfpenny (one cent) had quite a tough combat. He won, and since then the public has been able, if it likes, to write cn both sides He was extremely proud of this victory ” : (Copyright, 1929.) EDWARD F. GRUVER CO.

Regular virgin forest. By the way, what are you going to do with the old shack yonder? It would make a corking good hunting lodge. Looks sound and weatherproof. There ought to be enough space in it for a couple of gun and trophy rooms. Save you the trouble of toting rifles and am- munition half a mile at least.” “I hadn’t thought of that, but it’s not a bad “idea.” Perry Mansfield filled his pipe speculatively. “At the moment the place is occupied by two shiftless old bachelors. Seem to be sort of rooted to the spot. They live a hand-to-mouth existence which, I have my suspicions, is eked out by petty thievery. They're a bit too near my apple orchard and my wood pile to suit me. You know that class—no principles. But Allien let they stay on because he thought I might need a handy man around the place. I wish he had made them clear out before I got here.” “We saw one of them as we came by,” said Eames. “A strange old bird, very gentle and meek looking. He was pottering around the yard with a chicken under his arm, carry- ing it as if it were a baby. He might be 60 or 30. And he didn’t look un- like the hen himself.” : “That’s Zern. He's a little gone on the subject of that pet hen. Sey- mour, his brother, is younger, may- be 53 or so. He does all the work that’s done by the pair of them, and the Lord knows it’s little enough. Here they are, just two old bums. They've never done a single thing to justify their existence. No school- ing, no family, no money, no civic responsibility, nothing. I “told my caretaker, Simms, to be pretty strict with them. But I guess I'll look in on them this afternoon myself and let them know what’s what.” The conversation veered toward renovating old buildings and the probable costs of hunting lodges. . . e a sages shack was not flimsy as its Mame implied. It had, in fact, been built in the sturdy days of the early 1800’s and there were even some in the country who claimed Revolu- tionary origin for its chimney-breast and Dutch oven. The original four stone walls had been supplemented by a lean-to kitchen. a crazy porch and divers other excursions into home-made architecture. But the wood of these newer portions had rotted and it was théy that gave the place the air of a tumbie-down hovel. The ancient stone work pcr- Sisted much as it was tn the begin- ning. On one side of the house there was an old root cellar, further evi- dence of antiquity. In this Zern was always childishly hoping to find “puried treasure. He had been look- ing for eighteen years. The brothers never used the great Dutch fireplace. They had a little pot-bellied iron stove which they called “the animal” because it capered about when it got hot and emitted strange sounds. The only thing in the room worfbh a second glance was a built-in corner cupboard. the panels and molding of which had evidently been carved by a master craftsman. This cupboard was Zern’'s particular pride and joy. In it he kept his lit- tle stock of dishes—Zern, the deli- cate one, had the woman’s tasks. A scalloped blue glass preserve dish, ob- viously the patrician of the common collection, was set carefully in the very middle of the middle shelf. This shelf also boasted the distinction of a piece of lace slielf-paper. Zern had asked for a cent’s worth from the proprietress of the village hardware store, and she had disgustedly torn him off a small piece. It didn’t go very far among so many shelves, but Zern consoled himself by saying that it would be painting the lily to cover up such nice woodwork. Besides, there was enough lace paper to set off the blue glass dish and to make the closet look “elegant-like.” “Like” was the word on which Zern support- ed conversation. He never said thing was. A bird was dead like. A tree was cut down like. : - . . o “pomar Zern contemplated a solemn semiannual rite. It was a serious affair and he did not want to rush into it hastily.

Hard Luck Story of Two Old Bachelor Brothers Who Thought Their Odd Jobs Offset the Rent, But Got a Jolt When the New Landlord Called. S 3S b= Foe r= YY a ~~ Skt “2 a ed a ried, or - — arr’. Me , - Ta ~~ gs 2 . ? ~ - wa & The two brothers would play duets, Jack lis- tening with a rapt expression on his face. day seemed to justify the procedure, so Zern set about making his prepa- rations. First of all he took the lit- tle bucket and went out to get a pail of coals. A wonderful treasure had come the way of the _ pbachelors. Through this countryside had once run the old Morris Canal, used prin- cipally for towing coal barges back and forth between Camden and Jer- sey City. But the authorities had decided to discontinue it as a water- way, and the stream had been let out. In years of hauling many a bargeman had had to throw off ballast to lighten his load and many a lump of coal had inadvertently slipped from the barges. So the grassy bed of the canal became to Zern and Seymour an unexpected source of heat and warmth. Although it was May, Zern lighted a brisk fire in the “animal.” He was going ‘to take a bath and he didn't want to risk catching cold. He had an inherited conviction that most colds come from baths. He didn’t have many colds, but then he didn’t have many baths. The fire served two purposes. It heated the room and it heated a huge cauldron of water set on top of it, Zern moved the deal center table to the side of the room and replaced it by a large wooden wash tub. From an old brown leather trunk he fer- reted out a pair of khaki pants and a khaki shirt. This was his summer suit. He took off his winter corduroy with the sensations of a chrysalis emerging from the cocoon. He chant- ed gayly as he splashed and spluttered about in the warm water. He didn’t have a care in the world. A little later Mansfield and Eames eimabed in the direction of the bachelors’ shack. Eames was admir- img the graceful lines of the old ma- he ~ - ee ee Re sonry and the stalwart chimney- breast, but Mansfield was excessively annoyed at the sight of a scant dozen chickens pecking about. the place. In none too amiable a mood he stepped inside. Zerm, scrubbed and ‘shining, dressed neatly in the summer suit, _ was busy over the second part of his ritual. He was washing the winter corduroys in the bath water which he had just vacated. It was his im- memorial custom, designed to use up the nice hot water. Zern hated waste. There was no denying that the room was damp and steamy after the sweet May freshness of out of doors, and Mansfield looked about him with undisguised disfavor. But Zern, with all the’ assurance of his new cleanliness, greeted them beam- ingly. “I was just takin’ a bath like,” he explained in his soft, slow way. It certainly makes a man feel good... It’s a long time since I got around to it. * * * I wouldn't be surprised if I ain’t got around to if since long about last September, and like as not it'll be quite a spell ‘fore I git round to it again. But it certainly does make a man feel good like.” He smiled in his slow way and patted down the neatly parted gray hair on either side of his forehead. There was no mistaking that’ he felt prepared to receive kings. Mansfield brought him abruptly to . the business on hand. “I understand, Zern, that you and your brother have been living here a good while. What rent do you pay?” “Why I don’t know as we pay any rent, Mr. Mansfield, not as what you'd call rent. We always helped out when Allen was short-handed, which was most all the time. And in the winter he depended on us to keep this road open. The snow drifts down in this here spot somethin’ terrible. Seems like there’s a sort of a funnel made by the openin’ in the mountains and the wind sweeps the snow right down it like as if it was a broom. Seein’ as how Allen al- ways used this road for haulin’ his milk over to the Saunderstown sta- tion, he had to have it kept passable. Yes, there was a good many things that we could'do towards the rent.” “Well, that was all right for Allen. . He farmed the land. But I am using it for a different purpose, and if you are planning to stay here as my ten- .ants you'll have to pay rent. I don’t approve of pauperizing people. Either they pay their way or they get out.” “I guess Allen kind of figured that -we did pay our way, Mr. Mansfield.” “Well, from now’on the rent of this house is $5 a month. Cash. None of this business of taking it out in chores. And I want it im advance, It’s not the money I care about. It’s the principle of the thing. Fellows like you make me sick. You're just loafers and you expect everybody to lend you a hand. Why should peo- ple help you when you don’t help yourselves?” “Why, we do work, Mr. Mansfield,” Zern protested in gentle amazement. “Leastways Seymour, he works like an ox. But I ain’t so strong. I’ve had a bad stomach ever since I was 23 and hard work kind of goes against me like.” “I dare say. You bums always have an alibi.for not working. Prob- ably the trouble with your. stomach is that you've ruined it with drink.” “No, Mr. Mansfield. - Likker kind of disagrees with me. I never was able to get it to set on my stomach. Seymour, now, he can take his glass off and on. But with me it's differ- ent.” a + * oe py aneruns face was a study in disgust. To distract his attention Eames said: “I miss my guess if that isn’t a wonderful old corner cupboard. Look at the graining of the wood. And the moldings! You don’t find workman- ship like that nowadays.” Mansfield turned to Zern. “Was that in the house when you came here or did you build it in?” “No; it was always right there in that corner like.” . “Well, there’s moe wos We7p5 ft on this shack. I'll send a carpenter over - for it tomorrow, Zern. And another thing. About these chickens. I can’t have them running at large. If there is anything that looks wretched and dirty to me, it’s chickens scratching all over a place. You'll have to build @ run and keep them shut up.” “I guess I can contrive. somethin,’ Mr. Mansfield. You ain't noticed Lady, have you? She’s quite an uncommom hen, Lady is.” “I am not interested in hens, un- common or otherwise,” Mansfield in- terrupted. If it’s convenient, I'd like to have the rent now.” He devoutly hoped it would not and never would be convenient. Then he’d have a good excuse for ridding the place of the two old bums. Zern, rubbing his hands together in distress, confirmed the hope. ed “I'll tell you how it is, Mr. Mans- field. Seymour he’s got the purse. And he’s just stepped by to the village to - a0 a little tradin’ like. But he ought to be here any minute now, if you’H — Wait a bit.” Even as he spoke the huge bulk of Seymour blocked the doorway. Mans- field explained the situation to him while Zern hovered around his brother, relieving him of his bundles, setting the refilled oil can in its customary place, and so on, all the time trying to keep his hands from trembling at their tasks as Seymour, without a word of protest, counted out from the funny little leather coin purse the $5 rent. It was a lengthy process, because the purse contained no bills. Seymour had to count out nickels and dimes and quarters, laboriously added as he laid down each coin: “Two-eighty-five and ten makes two ninety-five, and a quarter, let’s see, that makes three-twenty,” he counted out, while Zern looked on agonizedly. “Four ninety-five and a nickel makes five dolars even.” | Zern breathed a sigh of relief. It was. @ lot of money and Seymour actually had it. He could take out his purse and plump it down just like that. Seymour slipped the ptrse into his pocket qultkly before Zern should notice how flat it was. Mansfield, feeling extremely right- eous because he had taken the first step toward awakening a proper sense of responsibility in these shiftless creatures, pocketing the~coins and prepared to leave. He felt that his utter unselfishness in the matter was atoned by the fact that he had un- complainingly burdened himself with @ lot of dirty silver. ' “I was just saying to your brother, Seymour, that you fellows ought to work harder and get ahead a little more. Seems to me you lead rather lazy lives.” ~~. “Oh, we keep pretty busy, Mr. Mansfield. What with hoppin’ and trottin’ we manage to turn a few pennies. There’s the chickens to be tended to, and summers there's the corn patch—we live off’n corn most all summer, Come spring, there's trout fishing down in the Musconet- cong, and winters we do quite a little trappin’. three red foxes up atop the mountain The skins sell for quite a sum. That’s an interestin’ thing now, trappin, is. I don’t know as I know finer fun anywheres. The top of the moun- tain yonder is a fine place for it, ‘count of there bein’ lots of rocks where the fox can run to cover. Our old foxhound; Yankee, poor fellow, he died last March, Yankee did. He was a terrible one for rurinin’ down foxes. But you had to keep a sharp eye on him and be awful careful to get the game away from him ‘fore he got the blood-lust, or he'd turn dangerous on you.” Seymour, filled with enthusiasm, was latinching further reminiscences when Mansfield, whose face had been darkening during the recital, inter- rupted him shortly. “I am sorry, Seymour, but if you've been doing this trapping up on my mountain. I'll have to ask you to cut it out. I want these woods kept as wild as possible. Any game to. be killed I'll kill] myself. You are not renting the whole mountain, you know. Outside of this shack and a few feet around it, you are trespass- ing on my property. Keep that in mind, please.” Mansfield signaled to Eames and the two of them left. Clos CM. PASS it.

On the first sunny day in early spring the baby may be put in the direct sunlight with the hood of the carriage and the baby’s cap “pushed well back so that the sun will shine directly on his cheeks. He should be turned first on one side and then on the other so that both cheeks will be exposed to the~sun and yet the eyes will be kept away from the direct rays. On this first day the baby’s hands should be exposed to the direct sun fora few minutes. Care must be taken not to burn the skin. A slight reddening of the skin each day will gradually bring about pigmentation or tanning. Unless the baby is accustomed to the sunlight through exposure at an qpen window the first outdoor sun bath should be for 10 or 15 minutes only. Each day there- after the exposure to the sun should be increased by 3 to 5&5 minutes. Every few days the amount of body surface exposed should be increased, at first slowly, but as the days grow warmer, more rapidly.

A generation ago it was probably called a “rarebit™ of Welsh or other descent, but the modern tendency to apply the latest catchword to every- thing has turned it into “whoopee,” which happily gives one a feeling that the dish is sure to be enjoyed. It makes not only a good lunch or supper dish, but an appetizing and quickly made meal after a long all- day motor trip or day on the water. 2 tablespoons butter. ¥% cup finely cut celery. 1% green pepper, chopped fine. % cup chopped onion. 2 tablespoons flour. 1 teaspoon salt. 1 pint tomato pulp and juice. ¥% pound cheese, flaked. 2~eggs beaten. Few dashes tabasco. Melt the butter in a heavy skillet, add the celery, pepper and the onion, and cook for about 5 minutes, etir- ring frequently. Sprinkle the flour over these seasonings, quickly pour in the tomato and then add the cheese and salt. Cook over low heat until the mixture thickens and the cheese is melted. Pour some of this mixture into the well-beaten eggs, then pour gill back into skillet, and continue to cook over low heat until thickened and creamy. Add the ta- basco and serve on crisp slices of toast or heated crackers. | Chocolate Dipped Confections. Try these two unusual confections the next time you need something to mark a festive occasion. Both can be made at home from materials readily obtainable. Be sure to get the kind of chocolate especially in- tended for dipping, and take care that it does not become hot when melting it in the double boiler, as that will cause the caridy to be streaked when cold. Jeilied Grapefruit Peel Chocolate. Prepare the grapefruit peel several hours before you dip it, so that it will dry off somewhat. 10 ounces grapefruit peel. 2 cups (14 ounces) sugar. % teaspoon salt. 11-3 cups water for sirup, oO enough to cover chocolate for dip- Dipped in ing. Thick, soft, unblemished peel from smooth grapefruit should be selected.

The strips should then be tender and must be handled gently to prevent breaking. Place the water, salt and sugar in a saucepan about 8 inches in diameter and stir until the sugar is dissolved; then add the strips of peel, arranging them carefully, skin side up, so that they lie paraliel to each other to prevent their being broken when turned. Cook rapidly for about 40 minutes, then reduce the heat and continue to boll gently for about 30 to 40 min- utes longer, or until all the sirup is absorbed.

Use a freezing mixture of 1 part of salt to 4 or 6 of ice. Turn the crank of fruit ice stand for an hour or more to ripen. This will make about one quart, TWO SUN SUITS. (Bureau of Home Economics, Department of Agriculture.) Children seek sunshiny places to play almost as instinctively as kit- tens look for warm, pleasant spots where the sun’s rays help them to drowse contentedly. Both children and other young growing things need the unobstructed ultraviolet rays of sunlight to keep them well and help them develop normally. Children, however, must be specially dressed for sun baths, in such a way that the largest possible area of skin surface may be reached by the beneficial rays. The little sun suits shown in the picture have been designed by the Bureau of Home Economics of the United States Department of Agri- culture to meet this requirement. Cool thin print is used in one case, with short, loose legs and comfortable shoulder straps which are broad enough to prevent slipping down. Legs, armholes and neck are finished with a flat binding. This garment is cut from a romper pattern having a fold in the crotch. It is roomy and loose all over, with especially good length from neck to crotch. A matching hat or shot-backed sun-bonnet could be made to protect the little girl's eyes from glare during the hot part of the day. The other little suit is more boyish in cut, with short trunks or trousers of opaque white material buttoned to a waist of heavy net, reinforced by flat straps. This type of waist allows the ultraviolet rays to reach even more of a child’s skin than the primted fabrics. It is necessary to accustom children gradually to their sun-baths, by exposing them for a short time each day the temperature is 80 Fahrenheit or more, un- til they acquire a coat of tan.

In a green landscape, or in a rocky gorge, or in the midst of a forest, or dividing a city, it gives to every scene the element of life. Living waters flow- ing through meadows, over sands, between mountains, they are always moving, progressing, going some- where. If qne climbs a hill, and looks off on a vast expanse of fresh woods and pastures new, and sud- denly sees a river, the heart ieaps up with recognition. Rivers Have Personality. Looking at a map—the expressive face of the world—I have often wirhed to follow the course of vari- ous rivers. Il should like to go down the Amazon, the Yukon, and the Yangtze. Each river has a person- ality. Most rivers that empty into the ocean are tidal; their current is pushed backward by the incoming sea. But the Amazon is so mighty that it overcomes the force of the tide and tramsforms the ocean into fresh water. Unless voyagers and novelists are abandoned liars, one can be off the coast of South Amer- ica, out of sight of land and dip up fresh water, 80 tremendous. and far-reaching is the shove of the Amazon. Its mouth fs so wide that though ————- one could place in it crosswise she whole Hudsen River from New York to Albany, without touching . either shore. — The personality of the Mississippi is striking. In the greatest of all Mark Twain's contributions to litera- ture, the first volume of “Life on the Mississippi,” he gives us marvelous impressions of the character and be- havior of the stream. And in one of the foremost novels of our time, Charles Stewart’s “Partners of Provi- dence,” the peculiar habits and whims ‘of the Mississippi. are set forth. It quite rightly regards .tself as socially superior to the Missouri; so mueh s0, in fact, that for some time after the entrance of the Mis- souri into its waters, the Mississippi positively refuses to have anything to do with the interloper. In the old days “before the war” (our war), luxurious passenger steam- ers plied from St. Louis to New Or- leans; and I understand that, after the lapse of many years, we are to have similar vessels. This is as it should be;‘an immense amount of American literature and history, from De Soto to Edna Ferber, is associated with this river, and the opportunity of traveling on it should be given to all Americans, I have not yet aban- doned my youthful dream of travel- ing on the Mississippi from St. Paul - a ie ah oa Na bath *- 5. s ~ ee ae thle 8 ie ah 5, Be sah # ay yon | ra te z - S| Y ae 4 ey by wwelltlee WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY,’ AUGUST 25, 1929.

The word river occurs many times in the Bible, and think of the part played in the story of mankind by the Euphrates, the Nile and the Jor- dan! The Bible begins and ends with a river. Im the second chapter of Genesis, we read “And a river went out of Eden to water the -garden,” a lovely spectacle, for Paradise would never have been complete without a river. In the last chapter of Revela- tion, we read,-“And he showed mea pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.” It is curious when the Bible speaks of the River of Life—“on either side of the river there the tree of life’— that the idea should persist of the to St. Louis, end from st.

Without sermonizing too grossly, we may say that a river is like a human life. The source is often obscure and humble, then a tiny stream, then growing bigger and more important (the widening of influence), then flowing tranquilly (prosperous, happy days), now getting into sand flats, hardly moving (serious illness), now roaring tempestuously in rapids (times of excitement and adventure), yet going on, somehow and some- where. Furthermore they always arrive ultimately at the same destination— the mysterious, open sea, leaving nar- row circumstances for a deeper and greater existence. And even those streams that seem to perish without fulfilling their destiny are in their subsequent in- fluence like the lives of obscurely good men.

Orr VY . ; ; 1P On® By Clifton Harby Levy. S the lipstick 7,000 years old? Prof. Herman Junkers, of the Vienna Academy of Scieffte, has lately found evidence while conducting ¢x~ plorations in the Nile Delta that this venerable antiquity may be an arch- ecological fact. Although war was waged against the lipstick by philosophers even in pagan times, as well as by priests, monks and nuns in the Christian €ra, and while it has continued to be a subject for disparagement even today by some medical monitors, the men of ancient Egypt held a much more interesting point of view. Some thousands of years before the Christian era, in a well-to-do Egyp- tian household, one can visualize the miale head of the family looking im- patiently at his spouse as she applied “just a little lipstick.” After wait- * ing for the procedure to be finished, one might hear him say, exasperat- edly: “I wish you'd hurry ‘up. You promised to loan me that rouge jar, and here you are hogging it again.” Amusingly enough, the society man of those days was not averse to beau- ~ tifying himself even if he had to- take recourse | ‘to his wife's dressing table. Through the recent discoveries of remains 6f the neolithic age, it is now established that the art of per- sonal decoration which began at this time and developed steadily through-. out the ages, was first utilized by men and women of fashion,-who not only colored their lips, but also tinted their cheéks, to add to the attractive- ness of their faces. In ancient Egypt it was considered suitable amusement at a feast for men and women to embellish their faces in each other’s presence and then to anoint themselves with their own special unguents and perfumes. But even then, as now, though the men might occasionally indulge in the artifices of make-up, the woman had major control of the cosmetic market, It has taken Egyptologists, arche- ologists and even paleontologists to prove to the curious that primitive women had their perfumes, their hair-washes, their face cosmetics and even their remedies for sunburn, and these not much different in applica- tion from the toilet accessories of to- day. »Fair skins, for instance, was much admired. The belies - of _antiquity used a mixture of white lead to whiten their faces and hands. Also, they used the juices of the fragrant, freshly plucked lemons as & bleach.

Various kinds of earth and mineral as well as vegetable substances were used for secpring the colors required to make cosmetics for gilding the lily of fem- inine loveliness. As the Egyptians progressed from the stone age to that of iron and bronze the art of cosmetics and per~ fumes advanced proportionately, Homer tells us that at this time they were emphatically a nation of drug gists because they made perfurries after the science of the apothecary, Color was not the only added at- traction. Odor was called into requl- Sition. Perfumes and ointments be- gan to fill the vanity cases of the luxurious men and women. Quix- otically enough, priests and princes who formed the governing caste ranked as large consumers. Baths, being the enviable necessl- ties they are, as many well-traveled person will tell you, were first raised to the rank of luxury by these same Egyptians. The upper classes bathed not only for cleanliness and coolness, but also Lecause it was fastidiously enjoyable. Slaves applied perfumed ointments immediately after the dip. Large numbers of jars for holding the ointments have been found, some of them with traces of the unguent gtill in them. -Besides these jars, for unguents there were containers for more subtle niceties. The earlier day Egyptian belles had small, artistically fashe oned flasks for holding their primi

Ed- Ward III, King of England, had Crossed the channel and was en- deavoring to capture Calais. In this Purpose he seemed certain to suc- ceed, for the city had been under siege for several weeks, and the people were close to starving. The signal confirming the ap- Proaching victory came when a knight @ppeared on the city wall. He was Sir John of Vyen, commander of the forces of Calais, and he bore a flag Of truce. Two English knights—Sir Gaultier and Sir Bassett—rode close fo hear what he had to say. “Valiant knights,” said Sir John, *the king, my master, sent me and 6thers to this fown and commanded Us to keep it in his behalf. We have ne all in our power, but now we have no food and ‘must all die unless your king will have mercy on us. We @re prepared to surrender the city, Dut we request permission for the people to depart without harm being done to them.” _ “Sir,” responded Sir Gaultier, “it is the intention of the king to put some of you to death and to hold others for ransom. He is angry because you ave opposed him so long, and have fost the lives of so many of his sol- fiers. But we shall give him your message.”’ Oe t MEARE 1] it . ) eee + See Fees TATA “ the reply. Though the knight did not know it, King Edward was pondering the protests of his knights against putting the people to the sword, the knights . having declared that such slaughter would lead to re- taliation if Calais should be retaken after being occupied.

Sey- mour didn’t go into the matter, but he knew as well as Ching Lee that it was the unused butter scraped from +he plates of customers. The second treat consisted of four ‘“bolivars,” lovely, round, hard, sugary ginger snaps, which were placed ceremon- lousiy in the scalloped blue glass dish. -The eating of these was a rit- ual. First Zern took his, then Sey- mour. Presently Zern leaned over for this second and then Seymour took his second. They never deviated from the order. They timed their bites accordingly. Then Zern dusted the crumbs out of the blue glass dish and replaced it in the corner cup- board. Tonight as he did this and closed the doors his hands lingered on the panels lovingly. Then he opened tbe door once more and took another look at the magnificence of the middle shelf, with the lace paper and the scalloped blue glass dish. But he said nothing to Seymour. He went back to the table and sat down He al- ways sat with his chair tilted back, even when he ate. This enabled him to bend forward like a jack knife till his stomach rested upon his legs. He was convinced that this position “helped his trouble.” It didn't occur to him that a diet of boiled white beans cooked with pork dripping didn’t help it particularly. Sometimes when the chickens were laying there was a fresh egg for Zern. Seymour never ate fresh eggs. He in- sisted that they. didn’t agree with him. This was as ge peculiarity for Sey- mour, who could come in ravenous from a whole day of cutting timber i. somebody's wood lot, or from work- On this ing a binder in the wheat fields till his muscles ached. Seymour, who was always hungry enough to eat a cow, insisted that fresh eggs didn’t agree with him, After the meal Seymour smoked his corn cob pipe. One of his errands in the village each week was to buy a paper of tobacco, dreadful stuff called Farmer's Delight. The paper had to last him all week. Half of it he smoked in his pipe. The other half he rolled tn homemade cigarette papers. This he did toward the end of ,the week when his supply was getting low. He had found that by dint of mois- tening the paper with his tongue rather more thoroughly than was necessary the cigarette burned longer. Sometimes, of course, it was so wet that it went out altogether, but even so, it lasted a long time. Zern couldn’t smoke with his bad stomach. Instead he washed the dishes. True, there was little left to wash. The plates were wiped shiningly clean with bread, and the coffee cups were drained to the last drop. Neverthe- | less Zern went through the motions of washing up in his slow, pottering fashion. He was thinking, as he worked, of the carpenter who would come in the morning. This would be his last night of setting back the dishes in the corner cupboard. He had done it every night for eighteen years. And Seymour was remember- ing the joy of rushing across the mountain, a-tingle with cold and ex- citement, hearing the exultant bark of Yankee, who had brought a red fox to bay against a pile of granite rock. “Well,” he said at last. with a philosophical sigh, “it don’t matter much, seein’ as Yankee is dead. I don’t know as I'd ever get another fox hound to suit me like Yankee did.” He took up the paper anc went and sat down with it under the lamp. On Saturday night Seymour read the Easton Gazette. He read it out loud from the first printed word till the last, and he followed every word with his index finger. The brothers had one Intimate, a crony named Jack, who lived over at Frogg’s Corners. Jack being a family man and Frogg’s Corners 3 miles away, he got over to the shack only about every other Saturday. Invariably be- fore he came he tapped the hogs- head of cider in the cellar of the farmer for whom he worked and toted along “a littl something” -The o«- tensible reason for his visits was to old customs of killing them all had given way in some instances to acts of military mercy, yet it was hard for the victors to abstain altogether from blood-letting after the capture of a city. i Sir John saw a knight riding to- ward him—it was Sir Gaultier re- turning. “Sir,” said Sir Gautier, “the king, my master, has granted your request to this extent—that he will spare the people provided that six citizens will come to him with keys to the city and the castle. These men must be prepared to die, and must wear ropes around their necks.” After hearing the reply, Sir John dismounted from the wall and walked to the market-place of Calais. The common bell was sounded, and people flocked together. When the knight told them of King Edward’s response, groans and lamentations went up from the crowd. Where were six men to be found who’ would thus place their necks in the noose? “Is there anyone here who will give his life for Calais?” asked Sir John. A man forced his way to the front. He was known as Eustace St. Peters. “Fellow citizens,” he said, “it would be a great pity for the people of this town gto die from famine or from sword. I will go to the English king with a noose around my neck!” A moment liater-another citizen, John Dayne, came forward to stand by the side of Eustace. He was fol- lowed by two brothers, and within a few minutes the fifth and sixth vol- unteers came forward. Out of the entrance of Calais: walked the citizens, passing through a lane offered bv the crowd of men, women Ray’s Corner.” =a and children who, with tears in their ‘eyes and aches in their hearts, stood by to bid them farewell. Arriving before t+ English king, the six offered him the keys to Calais, and their spokesman sald: | “Gentle king, we submit ourselves to your will and yleésure.” “Let their heads be struck off{" ordered Edward. As this terrible sentence was ut-. ~ tered, Sir Gaultier and other nobles sprang forward to plead that mercy — be shown; but the king shook his head, changing only the form of pun- ishment. . ; “Call the hangman! We will hang them instead of beheading them.” At this moment a woman came forward and fell on her knees before the king. It was his wife. “Gentle sir,” she said, “since [ crossed the sea to come here with you, at great peril, I have asked noth- ing of you. Now I humbly beg you for the love of me to take mercy on these six brave men.” For a few long moments Edward was silent, gazing at the wife before him, as if unable to believe his eyes. Then he spoke, saying: “Madame, I wish that you had been . in some other place, since you make such a request; but since you have made it I cannot refuse you. I give them into your keeping, to do with as you will.” By order of the queen, the ropes were taken from the necks of the amazed. but happy men, and they were set free. Their bravery had saved their fellow citizens, arid their lives had been spared by the mercy in a woman’s heart. (Copyright, 1929.) 2 By FRANCES TAYLOR PATTERSON hear some music. Zern played an ac- cordion and Seymour played the violin, keeping time for Limself by tapping his foot while he wrestled with the bow. The two brothers would play duets. Jack listening with a rapt expression on his face. But everybody in Saunterstown knew that Jack had been stone deaf for the last fifteen years. On the next of these convivial Saturday nights it happened that Mansfield had another of his week- end parties. Hitherto, by some lucky chance,-he hadn’t been dewn on an “accordion Saturday.” This time mis- fortune provided a land breeze which swept the sound directly to the piazza of the farmhouse. Mansfield sent Simms up to the shack to find out why they were making such a devil of a,row. Simms returned and duly reported on the whole affair, not omitting the fact that there had been a little something: in. a jug on the table. Mansfield was immediately convinced that the musical agonies were due to hard cider rather than to lack of skill—no one could play as badly as that and be sober.’ He'd put a stop to their drunken orgies. He - wished they hadn't paid their rent s0 promptly. Otherwise he would put them out on the spot. He went into the dining room and poured himself some Scotch to calm his nerves. At least they would know better than to make that infernal racket again. At first Mansfield adhered strictly to his determination to give the bachelors no work. This was largely because he didn’t need help. He hadn’t set out a thing in all his acres except the little garden truck which Simms had planted and tended himself. But Seymour found plenty to do, Spring and early summer were busy seasons in the valley. He was particularly apt at clearing trail- ers from apple trees. Mansfield, hear- ing of this, decided to have his own orchard cleared. No use letting the trees go to rack and ruin. Even if he didn't care to sell the apples in , the fall, apple-jack wasn’t so bad. Seymour came willingly. He wasn't prosperous enough to have his own tools so he asked Simms for a small hatchet and pruning shears. Simms didn’t have either and he asked Mansfield if he could go to town to get them. Mansfield needed Simms for another job, however, which had to do with his trap-shooting pit. He said that Geymour could just as well » use the ax. This Seymour did. Ali day lonz he toiled, pulling the great ax after him into the trees and bal- ancing it precariously as he climbed along the slender boughs. By night his arm was like lead. But he hur- ried on with the job and by the end of two weeks the orchard was fin- ished. Then Simms put_him to work chopping up the cut branches for kindling. Swinging-—the ax for these light twigs used up as much energy as a woodsman would put into fell- ing stout trees. Seymour, however, was urged on by the fact that this was Saturday and Mr. Mansfield was down,. Surely he would be paid off today. These two weeks without any settlement had beeh a hardship. He lingered on after he had finish- ed, hoping that. Simms would come out with the money. e hated to have to go to the door d ask for it, but it was getting late and he still had to trudge the four miles to town. They were badly in need of stores. “Tradin’ ” had to be skipped last week altogether.- So at last Seymour pre- sented himself at the kitchen door. Simms told him that Mr. Mansfield had company and couldn’t be dis- turbed. Finally, however, at Sey- ‘mour’s insistence, Simms said he would see what he could do. In a second he was back, followed by Mansfield. “Look here, Seymour. It seems to me that $24 is an awful lot for the little you've done. That’s at the rate of about $1.50 a day, and the Lord knows you’re not worth that. You old fellows are slow. You get about as much accomplished as a young fellow could do in half the time. But I'll tell you what I'll do, I'll make it a lump sum of $20 and put it toward the -rent.” Seymour was dumb with misery. “But Mr. Mansfield,” he managed to say at last, “we ain’t behindhand with the rent, are we? I thought as how we were paid up to the first of the month.” “So you are. But that’s only a week away. It’s much bettr that I keep the money. Then you’a be paid up until October. The trouble with you improvident fellows is that the minute you get your hands on any money you speiid it. That’s why you never get ahead. The only thing to do is to make you save in spite of yourself. Now we're squared up for a while. Good night, Seymour:” He closed the door and disappeared. Seymour stood there, sick with dis- appointment. Then he turned heavily and, trudged.off. .. ... «». That wasn't much of a Saturday night feast. They had corn for sup- per but no butter. He was rather worried about Lady, however, They didn’t have any money for chicken féed. - . + . * S eee next day Seymour’s arm was badly swollen. Some of the muscles had been strained from swinging the heavy ax. He said it would be all right in the morning when he was to start on a new job.- But it wasn’t all right in the morf- ing. It stayed black and blue and sore for days. And the funny little purse stayed flat and empty. The brothers kept on with “neir diet of green corn, and Jack came around with the timely gift of a basket of potatoes. The chickens had to make out the best that they could on worms, But since they weren't al- lowed to run at large they were rather up against it. To Zern’s affec- tionate eyes Lady looked peaked, and he was filled with anxiety. Then Mansfield rented one of his barns_to a neighbor, Matthews, who had more oats than space to store them in. All day the wagons were bisy drawing loads of oats to the. huge red barn. At sun-down when Zern was walking by he noticed gloat- ingly that the dirt near the barn door was full of rich fat kernels, He was consumed with joy. At supper he said to Seymour: “Well, I see as how Matthews got his oats into the barn. Seems like there's quite a bit of grain sprinkled here and there where the overri kernels fell off. How do you think’it would be if I was to let Lady scratch around a bit down there after dark-. mess comes on?” Seymour took the pipe-out of his mouth—there wasn’t any tobacco in . it, bus.it comforted him to chew on the stem, : “I don’t know as we ought to do that, Zern. Mr. Mansfield said we was to keep the chfickens shut up. He said we was trespassin’ every- wheres except just outside of the shack. ‘Course the oats don’t rightly. belong to him. They fell off of Mat- | thews’ grain. But to get them you on Mr. Mansfield’s . property. I don’t like to do anything | got to trespass we ain't gota right to.” Zern had Lady in his arms and stroked her -glistening age. . “I wasn't aiming’ to let all the — Just Lady.

Fern os Set Ce ae Kings to the By Cornelia Strassburg THOUSAND “years before Co- A lumbus was an infant in swad- Jing clothes or Cortez a little boy, an Aztec king was fondling a tiny dog we moderns have come ;to know as the Chihuahua. Your dog may have a soap box kennel, but you can just as easily envisage the back- ground of this toy animal of ancient days—the palace of the Aztec reigning family im Mexico, which was ranged around three open squares and had no less than 300 rooms. Small, snd weigtiing a casual 16 or 18 ounces, the Chihuahua’s ruby- colored eyes often blinked pleasantly from the crook of a queen’s elbow as she looked over the myriad groves and pleasure gardens without. If you are one of today’s plebeigns whose “purp” is regaled with a good view of the family wasti in the back yard . when Monday rolls around. you can “appreciate the noble columns.of por- “*phyry and. jasper supporting marble balconies that this royal family pet gazed upon when taken out for a sun bath. From 1325 to 1929 is a long step, but the amiable Chihuahua has taken it serenely. Conquests, turmoil, peace ang modernity have wrought their changes in Mexico.! And good for- tune has safely brought this prized dog through to its present superior place in dogéom. Time has achieved change in the animal’s hirsute coat, perhaps, in shortening the length of its hair. But atténtion of the bet- ter sort continues to be his right. “ In Chihyahua, the largest state of Mexico, where the dog is considered indigenous, the natives are occasion- ally raised to righteous wrath when an unwitting stranger calls a Chi- huahua a dog in close proximity to the native’s teeth. It is a faux pas equivalent to calling the native a dog. Hector E. Martinez, of the Mex- ican Chamber of Commerce, explains the .so-necessary distinction if ohe must talk about thé animals as op- posed to the natives of that region, should one be in Mexico. “When speaking of thé dog in Mex-- ico,” he said, “one must call him a Chihuahueno. When referring to the people, speak of them as Chihua- . Ihuenmses. Despite the fact they resent being miscalled a dog, the-peaple of . the state are justly proud of their aristocratic canine. Their owners are " invariably of the higher gentry and they..can instinctively spot a thor- oughbred.” oe ~ * - As all good things eventually pere- grinate to the United States, so, of course, have Chihuahuenos, only to be called Chihuahuas. Recently, ; at our Eastern. dog shows, where the socially elect ~ exhibit their ~finely strained species, the tiny Chihuahua has become more and more promi- nent. Mrs. Henrietta Proctor.

But the Chihuahua has made the jump calmly with no feeling of con- descension, quite in the traditional manner of aristocracy. Dogs, like humans, may all be alike under the skin, but it~ Donnell’s fifteen prize Chis are worth $50,000. -For one pound and a quarter of this wellbred animal, the value is anywhere from. £1,000 to 45,000. You can readily see this is no pet Im the bread and but- ter class whom one might let roam- about open to the si ai and call of ‘any stranger. Mrs. Donnell’s summer home, on the Proctor estate, comprising 2,000 acres. of landscape park, must suf- fice these pets for a balmy back- ground. These animals are so small of stature and so delicate that the romp- ing sport of even a PeKinese is goo rough for them. “In Mexico socially prominent peo- ple oarry these dogs in their hands,” said Mrs. Donnell. “It is quite usual for a man to put one in his pocket. I recall one time I was very much amused when carrying Proctoria Cricket, my particular favorite, who was last year’s champion in Madison Square Garden, for a short train ride. It was in the winter. My fur coat had voluminous sleeves, so I ‘merely tucked her in. No one could possibly realize I-had a dog with me. I -didm’t even have a chance to use Pannie. Hurst’s amusing retort to the pullman uctor. Fannie Hurst had her small Pekinese with her on a train, and, as she rather fancied, Well concealed. But the conductor moticed the dog. “Tent that a dog, madame?’ he asked. ‘Oh, no,’ answered Miss -Hurst. ‘This is a mammal.’ \ 9 4 - Mrs. Henrietta Proctor Don- nell, who calls the Mexican Chihuahua “the world’s only genuine toy dog.” “If you hed a Chi,” continued Mrs Donnell, “you would have to take excellent care of it. A great deal of attention, for one thing, would have to be taken of his nails. Continual manicuring is necessary. The dog’s nails are like long, thin tapers of tortoise shell. They grow quickly, and if they are not trimmed they curl round and round, eventually be- : | Interesting Personality. coming ingrown in the fiesh.. The slender legs of the dog would then crumple under him if he: tried to walk, Unfortunately, some Mexicans consider it smart to let thie happen, although it is unwittingly cruel. “At a dog show in Mexico not long ago a friend of mine was one of the judges. A man with one of this. species was carefully holding his en- try in his-hand. All the other dogs, of course, were being shown in the ring and trotting about. The judge asked this man to put his dog down. He couldn't, of course, because the poor thing’s nails were ingrown. “If amy one knows the history of them, it is easy to understand why this had occurred. The animals have been considered sacred in Mexico for centuries. They have been coddled, pampered and\carried about like in- _yalid potentates. The natives believe if they are perm! to h«** them, they will be singularly blessed. And if one. hag rheumatism or some malighant disease, only to carry this “dog will he efficacious as a cure.

The clothes are specially made and come from the Rue de Paix, Paris.

The question of bathing theese dogs is also important. You whose dog may be occasionally slipper into the family bathtub with fearful secrecy, may be interested to learn that the pampered Chi is tubbed very rarely indeed. A specialist has decreed that they are too delicate to stand the ordeal very often, aside from the fact that their scant coat will jose lustre from repeated washing. Therefore once a day the dog must be carefully brushed with stearate of zinc, which has a good reputation as a sag der for infants. Adornment is something else again. The Donnell dogs have their collars made to order and imported from London. Their ordinary collars and leashes are of fine Moroccan leather and. cost $20 each. Mrs. Donnell has exquisitely made jeweled collars for several of her favorite dogs, but she seldom lets them wear them Their food capacity, of course, is practically nil, but it must be well regulated. Twice a day these animals are fed with a slightly varying diet of crackers and very finely chopped beef. The beef is mixed wna cereal, wheat. Aside from the fact that Mrs. Don- nell’s slogan is “Justice for the Mexi- can Chihuahua, the. world's only genuine toy dog,” and is devoting her efforts to vindicating her favorite canine. species from the stigma of “freak,” Mrs. Donnell is an interest- ing personality. Two years ago she decided to paint. Her paintings of dogs’ heads have been acclaimed in art circles. The trophy room in her country place is more replete with West Point mementos than any in the country, amd the admiration in usually “which she is held by West Pointers is, uniquely enough, responsibie for her kennel’s name, Ettie Haven Benny Havens was an old tavern beloved of cadets and officers alike. So when Mrs. Donnell war about to eend the conventional kennel name in to the American Kenne' Club, the West Pointers arose in a body and asked her to use the diminutive of her own name and that of Havens, which, characteristically, she did.

Then sing me a song of the buccaneer When pirates and blood were king; Plundering, ravaging,. risking their lives Por the value the booty would. bring; When fighting was done by the stréngth of the blow, The best man the winner to be; When ‘the conquered were left to toss at the will Of a fickle and powerfdl sea. . ‘ Then sing me a song of the Ways gone by, When the ocean was vast and unknown, And many brave men sailed zorth on the deep, Thodgh never again to come home. When great, angry waves tossed the fragile barks In their powerful tyranny, " As if .to rebuke the courage that called And iured them to open sea. Oh, sing me a song of the northern shores, Of the land of eternal snow; Where the surging sea is filled with ice And the winds forever blow; Where the freezing gale ane the angry surf Have proven themselves supreme: Where many a man has been daunted before - In quest of a wonderful dream. Oh, sing me the song of your various oods, Your calmness, like mirrors of glass; Your terrible waves and treacherous strength When swept by the force of the blast; Your mystery and chill when dimmed by a fog: Your brightness again in the sun; Oh, sing me the song of your. various moods , You've had sincethis world was begun> Oh, sing me a song oF the M@ster of All Who rules with His sceptre and rod; For when singing the song of the seven seas You're singing the song of your God.

While he was sleeping he had a dream. In this dream a large bird came to him and asked him if he would like to go for a ride with him. David accepted and climbed upon the monster’s back. Away they flew high up in the clouds-——up above every- thing. Far up above one of the clouds he stopped, There was a park and a few amusements which David liked very much. There was a large star which was a roller-coaster. David tried this; it went up hill-and down, which nearly took his breath away from him. Finally the track disap- peared“and they went down, down, down and were caught in the ‘big @pper. This made David very sick. He asked to go home, but the bird could not g® then, so a star came by and he said he would-take him: David clung to Him very tight and down they came to the earth Maybe that was the star you saw fall last night, but, no, it was only a dream, which ended very peacefully. When David woke up he was as well as ever. NINA V. TAYLOR age 14). Idylwood, Va. jr. I want him to join The Junior Post as soon as he is old enough.

The Fairy said, “Just come sit on our shoulders and -we will fly there.” So the Eif and Fairy took Sally on their shoulders and flew a song wiht last they reach: ‘a a green spot.

When she opened it she saw Jack sitting on a chair with his hands, mouth and feet tied up. She quickly untied him and questioned him how he had been taken prisoner.

Over in a corner: Dolly and Billy were in a cage with chains on their feet. “Please take us out of here, Bob,” said Dolly. “Yes, do take us out Bob, these things on oug feet hurt,” said Billy. Bob finding the keys to the cage and the chains, set the lite prisoners free. Just as they got outside the door they heard the men coming back. They saw all of the children except Bob, because he ducked behind them. When the men took the other chil- dren they did not notice him. Bob quickly went back into. the room and got two. guns. Then he crept up softly. and followed the men. He found that they went back into the big hall. Bob did not go into the hall, but stayed on the other side of the slide for fear the men would see him. . For awhile he could not seem to catch Jack’s ‘attention, but finally - he succeeded. Then he motioned him to grab two pistols and hold the men up until he came out of the slide. Jack did as he was told, and to get worried. lage for the police came upon the house in the woods. Bob was getting out of the slide he heard some footsteps. It was the searching party. “Oho! We have found two people we have been looking for. Well, son, how did you do it?” asked the captain. “Do what?” said Bob, puz- gied. “Why, capture Black Jack and his gang,” said the captain. The chlidren told their story, and how poor they were. The captain then said, “Well, you are rich now.” “But how come?” said Bob, still puz- zied. “Well, you now own 410,000, for the capture of Black Jack and his gang,” said the captain. The police handcuffed the men and took them to jail. .When the children reached home they told their «tory of their exciting adventure over and over again. The next day Bob went down to the city courthouse and received his reward. : Mrs. Brown is now living in a nicely furnished home in the city, and Bob has a promise of a detective position after he has finished his schooling.

One day a little girl was pouting and the bird fléw to the window and sang in his usual manner. This cheered her so that she st up and ing gaily. Then they, too. began to smile.

Robert Louls Stevenson was born in Edinburgtr, om November 13, 1850, and his father, his grandfather ard his uncle were all famous builders of lighthouses: It is very likely that the romance connected with the. building of. these lighthouses bad much to do in starting the love of romance in Stevenson himeelf. Stevenson was a weak and ill child. | It is very likely that he would not have grown to manhood if his parents had not been so wel] supplied with money. He did nothing of note either at school or university; but . was in reality preparing himself for . the work of his life by reading books and imitating the styles of different authors. When he was only 16 years old; his description of a historical event, “The Pentland Rising.” was publishe@. “Treasure Island" was his firet popular story. He next wrote “Kidnaped,” which will never be for- gotten. When he was 39 years old his health was so bad he had.to go to Samoh to live. There he lived for a few years, loved by the natives of Samoa. We died suddenly on Decem- ber 3; 1894, and was buried on the top of a mountain he had loved. These verses, written by himself, are engraved on his tomb: Under the wide and starry sky, Dig the grave and let me lie. Gilad did I live and gladly die, And I lay me down-with a will. Thig Se the verse you grave for me: Here: he lies where he longed to be, Home is the sailor, home from the sea, And the hunter home from the bill. ANNA &.

It’s so hard to tell Your best friends farewell And it’s hard not to cry When you're saying good-by. You're leaving behind all you know well, And going to what the future will tell Those friends and places known from birth . Mou’re leaving for a new part of the h earth. And so, when you're bidding adieu To these friends who've loved you, Let those welled-up tears depart And so ease the pangs in your heart.

The house was built in 1800 by Col. John Taytoe,-and his establishment was known all: over the country for his entertainments, &c. Some of those who visited here are familiar to all Americans, John Quincy Adams. Clay. Calhoun.

It seems appropriate that a product of one of America’s best known architects should be pur- chased from the Tayloe heirs in 1902 by the American Institution of Archi- tects. and made the headquarters of the National Society of Architects. The house had an underground passage which went to the White House, but this was. blocked up a lit- tle way from the entrance. When the British .burned Washington in August, 1814.

Gentlemen: During the summer when I saw for the first time at the Casino at Deauville your new Clicquot Club SEC, I was at once attracted by the dis- tinguished shape of the bottle, which lent such an aristocratic air to the tables where it was being served. Delighted by its refreshing qualities after an afternoon at the races, or an evening at baccarat, I secured your address from Monsieur Andre, director of the Deauville Casino. I am writing to you directly to place an order for 10 cases of Clicquot Club SEC, to be sent to my Paris home, 4, rue Alfred de Vigny. Yours sincerely, 41. Lh ; At the smart watering-places on the Conti- nent, you will find graceful bottles of Cliequot Club SEC on the tables. European society is enchanted by this new ginger ale, because these men and women are connoisecurs. They appreciate the bou- ageing; hence they are delighted with Clie- quot SEC, which is mellow like rare old wine:— figed 6 months in the making by an exclusive secret process to develop that smooth, rich flavor which distinguishes it from all others. quet of fine wipes, achieved through careful oe _ -- © ; + “ 4 a po ae lp 3 2 ae if ze ’ The Countess enjoying Clicquot SEC at the Royal Hotel im Deauville. . 3 ' ‘ " y ; = * ete ~. ‘ : z> oe ee Grand Prix gora tablet awarded Clicquot Club Company for Cliequot Club SEC, at the Exposition ; aticnien ia C aie: Bula S ber, 1928.
