Working on te belief that two men were involved in the murder of Mary Baker on the night of April 11 last, police spurred their search for Herman A.

He said that he bad lived in Washington, but had been forced to leave by the police, who were ‘very tight,’ he said.’ The description of the man, as given by Johnson, was said to have exactly tallied with the characteris- tics of Barrere.” He was about 5 feet. 9 inches tall,” the colored man said, “and apparently weighed about 175 pounds. His hair was streaked with grey, a fact that appeared un- usual in @ man as young as he ap- peared to be.” He told the he was a painter, look- ing for a job.

Johnson said that he was absolute- ly positive that his passenger was Barrere.” We had picked up numer- out hitch-hikers on our journey from Chattanooga, Tenn. to Washington,” he explained, “and I could not re- member most of them. This man, however, stuck in my mind. I talked with him and sized him up for more than half an hour, and when I saw his photograph I identified it at once.” Johnson's son, Elmer, also positive- ly identified Barrare’s picture as the likeness of the man that he had picked up last Sunday.

CAMERAMEN ARE LAUDED New York, June 28 (A.P.).—Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd returned to- day from Boston, where yesterday he received an enthusiastic greeting, and was honor guest with others of his expedition at a luncheon. The luncheon was given by Para- mount-Publix Corporation to the two cameramen who made the pictorial record of the Antarctic adventure. Th photographers, Willard Van Der Veer and Joseph T. Rucker, were seated on the dais with the admiral, ‘but let their pictures do their talk- ing for them. The admiral gave warm praise to them, pointing out that much of their work was done in temperatures of from 50 to 60 degrees below zero. He said the final record was a true picture of the expedition’s work. He had feared the picture would be over- dramatized, but was glad to find that, if anything, ib was underdramatized. Tonight the admiral was invited to the dinner given by the New York Press Club for Russell Owen, reporter of the expedition. ‘Tomorrow will be his own to spend as he sees fit. Mon- da? he will attend a luncheon of his college fraternity— Kappa Alpha — and that night will be guest at a dinner given by the New York Ath- letic Club in his honor. Tuesday he goes to Philadelphia for a civic re- ception. The admiral and Bernt Balchen, his chief pilot on the South Polar flights, came back to the city by au- tomobile from Boston, bringing with them three sons of Mayor Curley of Boston, whom they put aboard the liner Leviathan for Europe.

KING MAY BECOME PRESIDENT FOR LIFE Republicanism Rampant in Army, Universities and Labor Unions. $e ee Geneva June 28 (N.Y.W.NS.).— There is a strong drift in Spaain toward a Republican form of govern- ment. The wave of republicanism that has been sweeping the country * since the downfall and subsequent death of Primo de Rivera, for years its dictator, has been rising steadily and is now almost at its crest. The Spanish electorate will be called upon at elections in Septem- ber to decide what form of govern- ment it wants; and, although Spain is a country in which political trends Often shift unexpectedly, there are strong indications that the Hapsburg- Bourbon dynasty, now occupying the throne, will have no successor and that the powers of King Alfonso, the present monarch, will be curtailed and his status made more nearly that of the king of England and Belgium. Alfonso may even become lifetime president of the country of which he is now king. The political leaders of the move- ment toward republicanism are tac- itly agreed that if the monarchy re- mains, Alfonso’s wings must be clipped. They are determined to avert disorders, but they are equally as determined that the September elections to the cortes, the Spanish parliament, shall be absolutely im- partial. Republican Gain Looms.

Hoover’s Boswell, 11, To Visit White House W. J. Marsh, Connecticut's Youngest Biographer, Printed President’s Life Story on 50-Cent Press, Costing $50 for Repairs. William J. Marsh, jr., 11 years old, of 18 South Main street, New Milford, Conn., who is too young to have been influenced by Moody and Sankey, but who may have heard radio addresses of the Rev. 8. Parkes Cadman, is to | be a guest of President Hoover at the White House, and his visit to the executive mansion is to be attended with a fanfare. Shot overnight into national prom- inence, the. young Mr. Marsh has to thank for his rise to fame the per- spicacity of his father, an antique dealer in New England, who purchased for him a dilapidated printing press for 50 cents. Genius will find its expression de- spite absence of smooth running ma- chinery. Young Marsh gonfessed that it cost $50 to get the 50-cent printing press to run well enough to print his hy of President Hoover,, one copy of which is done on velluni. But it was worth the $50 as a straight business proposition, for undoubtedly the young author and publisher will get back the money which, pre- sumably, was advanced by Mr. Marsh, sr., to give play to the lad’s genius. Observations by the young pub- lisher include the “The wise people of today work, and weak-minded persons do not.” “Herbert Hoover has worked ever since he was a child; he has made ==) | every dollar he has by hard and honest work; he is not too proud to let people know it either.” “My dad is a good all around sport to us boys and I tell you it is great when you know your boy friends are always welcome regardiess of a little mud on their shoes.” Mrs. Hoover probably never would have been Mrs. Hoover had she not yielded to feminine curiosity and pique, according to young Marsh. The prospective Mrs. Hoover just couldn't resist the temptation to find out about Herbert Hoover of whom she heard so much when she went to his college. “Do you know,” Master Marsh queried, “girls are very curious, Just mention a fellow’s name a few times and you are sure of getting the girls interested. I guess it was just this way in-this case, too. Qne day Mr. Hoover happenéd to meet Miss Henry in one of the professor's offices. I guess it was just luck for both, for I héar women say Mis. Hoover is just the woman for the White House.” “The women of our town are for prohibition. If apy one says light wipe and beer to them they Oy up in arms. That is the kind of women we want.” “I think it is awful to talk badly about our President,” he said~ in chiding an anonymous senator for attributing the lack of prosperity and the stock market collapse to the President, who has, he repeated worked : hard all his life. .

The filers made four contacts with the refueling plane Big Ben tonight. On one of these they took on 100 gallons of gasoline and on the others they received oil, food and battery service.

Casey Jones, an Official of the Wright Co., said there had been no motor trouble. “The motor has been functioning perfectiy,” Jones asserted. “If there had been any trouble, the pilots would have told of it in their notes, and they have not mentioned any difficulties.” Kenneth found relief from a severe toothache tonight after medicine had been sent up to him.

Miss Lucas was killed in an automobile accident, and while Forrest A. Brown, executor of her estate, was inspecting personal effects of hers, he made the discovery held to be highly valuable to those who have argued for 70 years as to whether John Brown, leader of the Harpers Ferry armed rebellion in October, 1859. had been given a fair and impartial trial.

To add to thé widespread unrest in Spain, the peseta is at the lowest level it has touched in/frecent history. Carbo and Alba are openly in aiji- liance to capitalize this situation. One of the factors supporting the throne is the traditional tendency of the Spaniard to wait until tomorrow. A majority of the people are neither emotionally nor intelligently Republi- can, Many are antiroyalist and the only alternative form of government they have heard about is a republic or a dictatorship. The latter is as distasteful as the present monarchy. Primo De Rivera's essay into Fascism with popular government of Ger- many, Greese and Austria seems to the Spaniard to have been successful. Accept Regime on Faith. For the moment the Spaniards are accepting Gen. Berenguer’s military regime on faith. Both Tomaso and Damaso Berenguer, although military men, have liberal tendencies.. The transitional dictatorship is busy tearing down the system erected by Primo de Rivera during his eight years in offic®. It has promised speedy and honest elections a& soon as possible. The vital issue at the moment is the character of the new Cortes. The opposition insists that it must be constituent—it must have power to change the constitution so as to make impossible another coup de force, such as that which put Primo de Rivera in power. If the new Cortes is Gonstituent it can amend the constitution. It can decide whether Spain is to remain a constitutional monarchy or become a republic, the Republicans say.

The Arlington County Civic Federa« tion will hold its monthly meeting Tuesday night in the Lyon Park com- munity house at 8 o'clock. The farmer's interest should be placed in the front rank of domestic questions, State Senator Frank L Ball, candidate for nomination for representative, told an audience in the Rex Fox Theater, at Middleburg, last night. He.said: “I believe in carereens co- operative marketing. by associations controlled by real torsiare, and my record in the Virginia Legislature’ will show that I have supported coopera- tive legislation before ever becoming a candidate for Congress. What the farmer’ needs more than anything ‘else, however, is a breaking down of the great. monopolies that have shackeled our land with industrial chains of greed and selfishness, fixing and controlling both the market in which the farmer buys and the mar- ket in which he sells. “The debenture plan of farm relief should be adopted at least as a tem- porary remedy until we can break up the great trade monopolies and cre- ate an open market again. The Dem- ocratic party gave us the Federal Re- serve System of money control which has saved us from at least one crush- ing panic, It is our duty to effect a trade system that will make it im- possible for. a few heads of great in- stitutions in New York to control and fix the price of farm produce through- out the land.” Senator Ball also advocated larger Federal appropriations for roads, with less restriction on the expenditure of Federal money; the lowering of Fed- eral taxes on imcomes and inheri- tances; the cutting ‘of red tape in Federal relations with war . veterans, rand & square deal for labor. Senator Ball repeated his stand on prohibi- tlon—that he is an unqualifiedly dry candidate, personally and politically. Word was received in Clarendon yesterday that: Miss Anna F..

STUD Hoover Proposal to Obtain Private Money for Law Group Use Assailed. LAGUARDIA IN ATTACK (Associated Press.) President Hoover's decision to use private funds for the Law Enforce- meut Commission's investigation was attacked as illegal in the House yes- terday. while a plan was being formu- lated to restore a $250,000 item to the deficiency bill Monday for the continuation of the work. Representative LaGuardia (Republi- can), New York, on whose point of or- der the item for expenses of the com- mission during the next fiscal year was stricken in the House, charged that the law prohibited acceptance of private funds for operation of a Gov- ernment agency. Almost at the same time Represen- tative Mead (Democrat), New York introduced a resolution to require the President or Chairman George W. Wickersham of the commission to re- port to the clerk of the House the amount of contributions and their contributors. Conferees Delay Action. In the meantime the House and Senate confereés, considering the sec- ond deficiency bill, calling for an out- lay of $80,000,000 to cover contingen- cies in Government departments, de- ferred action until Monday. The measure includes the $50,000 placed in the bill by the Senate for a study of prohibition, instead of the general survey of law enforcement which the President wishes. Representative Tilson, of Connecti- cut, the Republican leader, an- nounced to the House that before considering the conference report it would be possible for it to appropri- ate the $250,000 recommended by Mr. Hoover, but that the fund could not be raised by the conferees above the $50,000 allowed by the Senate. While the administration leaders were reluctant to discuss their plans, it was learned efforts also were to be made by dry leaders to broaden the scope of inquiry to all law enforce- ment instead of only prohibjtion. President Said to Err. In questioning the right of the President to have the investigation made with private funds, Mr. La Guardia said that if the President made the statement‘’that he would take that course, “then .he knows more about engineering than he knows about the law of the: land, and I would most respectfully sug- gest to Presiden& Hoover that before he makes any statement or any plans about using or asking for private funds to finance a pyblic commis- sion, he familiarize himself with the Revised Statutes of the States.” “But these commissioners are not officers of the Government,” inter- jected Representative Ramseyer (Re- publican), Iowa. “But the President of the United States is, and if those commissioners operate under appropriation of Con- gress, whether it is $1 or 850,000 they can not spend in excess of their appropriation,” replied Lagutardia. Holds La Guardia Wrong. “Under the Senate amendment, they are limited to prohibition,” Representative Ramseyer continued, “and they can with private funds make investigations along other lines, not as officers of the Government, but as individuals.” Ramseyer said LaGuardia had mis- represented. the law, but Yorker contended that he did not. Representative Tilson said that in order to appropriate the funds for the Commission, the House would have to act before the conferees sub- mit their report. Representative Celler (Democrat), New York, charged in a statement that President Hoover’s purpose to procure private funds for the Com- mission was “ill advised, if not il- legal,” and added it was “but one step to the erection of a supergovernment composed of a coterie of rich men who would be willing to set up funds at the President’s disposal to do the very thing that Congress refuses to do.” DEMOCRATIC PLANK IN WASHINGTON WET Continued from Page 1. | mitted atlong with a statement of A.

Winchester, Va., June 28.—A life- size bronze bust of Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn Byrd has been pre- sented to his mother, Mrs. R. E. Byrd, sr.. by Charlies V. Bob, a New York banker and one of the backers of the Byrd expedition to the Antarctic. The presentation was made by Mr. Bob’s representatives. Life-size in measurements, the bust depicts the countenance of Admiral Byrd as he stands on the bridge of his flagship and surveys the route be- fore him. In keeping with the motif expressed in the bust is a sketch of the flagship cut in the marble base. Standing about 26 inches high, the bust presents a true likeness of the explorer as portrayed by the sculptor, V. Prisch, of New York. “It pleases me more than any of the wonderful things that have been done for me,’ Mrs. Byrd said today, adding that the bust of her heroic son would be one of her most prized possessions, and that it would rest in the family living room of her home here amid many recollections of the admiral'’s Arctic and Antarctic expeditions. While the explorer afd his men were at the South Pole Mr. Bob fol- lowed very closely their exploints, and when it appeared there was a proba- bility of their being hemmed in an indefinite time by ice barriers he was one of the first to offer to send an expedition to their assistance. Mrs. Byrd gave permission today for the bust of her son to be exhibited at the Handley Library for a short time. Virginia Reopens Roads Closed Several Months | Charles Town, W.

VAN, PARTNER, OVERCOME Detroit, June 28 (A.P.).—It was the final curtain America’s "most famous vaudeville teams today. Joe Schenck, who with his friend, | Gus Van, sang his way out of a | Brooklyn street car, through Coney Island’s music halls and on to Broad« way, died suddenly from heart dis- ease in his room at the Book-Cadli- ‘lac Hotel here today. He was 38 years old. “Yan and Schenck,” as theatrical bookers knew them, have been &@s< sociated for eighteen When ' the blow fell today they had piayed one day of a week's engagement at the Fisher Theater here. Last night they sang to a packed took their bows and oblige ingly sang again. Perhaps Schenck wasn't feeling any too fit then. but he did his turn, like the good trouper he was. | By noon today he was dead. With him when he died was Gus Van, ‘nearly crazed with grief. Van and Schenck became acquainte ed in Brooklyn eighteen years ago, when they were holding down the two ends of a street car as moore man and conductor. They started out as entertainers at private parties, and soon got into the professional class. During the time the team was playing the.two singers held engagements at Comey Island.

GROCERS LOSE PLEN'F UN DS SPLIT HOUSE AND SENATE! «IN PACKER HEARING District Supreme Court's Ruling Hits Request to Deny Modification. FINAL DECISION PUT OFF (Associated Press.) The ten-year-old controversy over whether Armour, Swift and other packers should limit their activities exclusively to meat packing passed through another phase yesterday when the District of Columbia Su- preme Court overruled a petition ask- ing dismissal of an attempt by these ups to obtain modification of the 920 consent decree. The decree was consented to after the Government had instituted anti- trust proceedings against packers, but was not put into effect until the Su- reme Court sustai the decree. n the packers to limit their. business and later asked modification because of economic and financial de- velopments. In the decision yesterday, Justice Bailey, of the District Supreme’Court, denied a petition of the American Wholesale Grocers Association asking dismissal of the packers’ petition for modification. This suit was instituted because the packers asked modifica- tion so they could be allowed. to re- sume grocery and retail business. Justice Bailey's decision heid tha the packers’ petition should not be acted upon until after a full hearing on the merits of questions involved, and added that “final determination the court may largely depend vpon whether * * *.the Government anall consent to or oppose the pro- posed modification.” }bere until you do compromise The Government, although not questioning the right of the court to | @rant modification, has challenged the | packers to produce proof that their claims are justified. Justice Bailey quoted a provision of the decree that the court retaihs urisdiction “for the purpose of tak- ng such othesg action or adding at the foot of this decree such other relief, if any,*as may become neces- sary Or appropriate to the carrying out and enforcement of this decree and for the p of entertaining at any time hereafter any applica- tion which the parties may make with respect to this decree.” The Grocers Association petition chal- lenged the court's power to modify the decree, “Both the consent decree and the er permitting intervention,” -Jus- ce Bailey added, “evidently contem- plate that. modification may there- after be miade in the consent decree by order of the court although they Mature and extent of these modifica- tions are not defined.” DAY IN CONGRESS SENATE. _ Met at noon and adjourned Pp. m. to noon tomorrow. at 1 | were entitled to. - Finance committee reported out, with a few minor amendments, the substitute House bill to ald the World War veterans.

Either you Senate tells the ise now, the use, Or you stay. The battle, however, is more than & purely local one. It transcends the District appropriation bill; is in fact a chapter im a long and ofttimes dramatic struggle between the two houses. mo Sometimes the casus belli has been jealousy, sometimes pride, and some- times a desire to dominate. In this case, the Senate accuses the House of trying to dominate, to dominate it at the expense of a city that has no power to retaliate at the ballot box Congressional history abounds with combats between the two houses. One of them resulted in the first open-air inaugural, that of President Monroe, in 1817. The Senate, which had charge of the inaugural, proposed that its chamber, the larger of the two, be used for the ceremony. Henry Clay, then Speaker of the House, was agreeable, but with reser- vations. First, he wanted it clearly understood that he would not re- linguish control of the chamber while the ceremony was on. Objects to Gay Chairs. The senators then asked permission to bring over from the Senate cham- ber their red morocco chairs, so that to the House /Thomas B. Reed took an extreor- they might sit In comfort. This was to much for Clay. Such gaudy furni- ture, he said, would be an abomina- tion in the democratic atmosphere of the House, and @ bitter quarrel en- sued. As a result of it, the inaugural ceremony was taken out on the east steps of the Capitol. More closely rélated to the present battle was the one that was fought in the 80's. William Tyler Page, vet- eran clerk of the House, remembers it well, he having been a tousie- headed page boy in the House at the time. The time was one of strict economy. Not long before this there had been such an outcry when the senators and representatives increased their salaries from $5,000 to $7,500 that the law granting the boost was repealed. | Later, of course, the increase was) voted and “took,” and, in 1925, an- | other was voted, sending the salary | to where it is, at $10,000. Howl Over Secretaries. But in the years immediately fol- lowing that first salary “grab.” the Treasury watchdogs in the House were baying with a vigor that would make the Cramtons and the Simmons of today seem like helpless poodles. Cut to the bone, a legislative ap- propriation bill was sent from the House to the Semate. . There an im- portant amendment was added, one to provide the senators with secreta- ries. Fheir work had been growing at such a rate, the senators said, that the’ had to have help if their con- stifiients were to get the service they When the news reached the House a mighty howl arose. It was wasie- ful, it was extravagant, it was a steal, the members said, and they served notice that they would never accept the amendment. If necessary, they said, they would force an extra ses- sion. Senate Gains Its Point. A long tug-of-war followed in the Senate and House conference room. Neither side would give in, and March 4 was drawing near. What right, asked the senators, did the House have in telling the Senate how it should conduct its own affairs? The Senate certainly would not try to run the affairs of the House. If the representatives needed secretaries. why, let them, too, be given money to hire them. In the end the Senate won out. | And 4t was not many years before the House also was asking for more sec- retarial help. Battle on Navy Bill.

C., Navy Yard. 4ee Cannon Semmonea When the bill went to conference. the House conferees, headed by Rep- resentative George Edmund Foos of Iilinois, announced that they would never agree tc Tillman's amendment. “Pitchfork” in effect told in the end he would make them agree and like it. # The deadlock which ensued lasted up until the eve of adjournment. the bill were lost, it was said, the Navy would be crippled. just as the District of Columbia will be crippled if its own bill fails now. In the midsi of the crisis, Speaker dinary step. He selected his greatest fighter, Joe Canon, of Illinois, tuen head of the appropriations committee, and sent him into the conference in Place of Foss, who was chairman of the naval affairs committee. Tillman Vanquishes “Unele.” Foss felt so badly about being re- placed that he burst into tears. Cannon and Tillman locked 2orns in the conference room. and if what they said behind closed doors was) even a little bit more harsh than what they said on the floor, the 5at- tle must have been a classic. In the end, Cannon had to admit Tillman had him licked, was sent back in his place. Then the House yielded to the Senate, and | the bill went through. Senator Tillman, who got his sobri- quet by the way he pitched into an opponent with his rapier-like tongue, used to win simply because he re-| fused to lose. . Page Tells About “Pitchfork.” William ‘Tyler about him: “I recali Senator Tillman holding up both houses by the threat of speaking until adjournment uniess he could bave his way. “He insisted on an appropriation of | $47,000 to pay an old South Carolina war claim after the auditors had found only 34 cents due. “The House wouldn't yield at first and the Senate was afraid to yirld. but when Tillman began to read ‘Childe Harold’ Uncle Joe Cannon and the House conferees threw up their hands and Tillman won out.” Deadlocks Dot Record. Deadlocks between the two houses, some of which were broken but many of which continued until the legis- lation in question was dead, dot the record of the Congress. In the very first Congress, a bill was killed in such fashion. It was a measure bearing on the compensation of the Vice President. In the same Congress, there was a bitter fight over the bill to establish the Treasury Department. The House refused to agree to a Senate amend- ment, and for a time it looked like the bill would fail. Then the Senate yielded.

This lump , sum has been continued ever since. although the Senate has been steadily protesting. and the budget has been increasing yearly at the rate of $2,- 000,000 a year. Senate Protests Anew.

They offered to go two-thirds of the way; to place the contribution at $10,000,000. Still the House conferees stood firm. And that is the situation today: The Senate conferees offering to drop from $12,000,000 to $10,000,000: the House conferees refusing to go up 50 much asa penny. - Meanwhile a joint resolution has been prepared to continue the 1930, or current, appropriation bill, the usual step taken in such an emerg- ency.

So far, only Heywood Broun, Mark Hellinger and Robert Benchiey have actually lent their smiling faces and histrionic talents to the stage, via the ‘varieties, but offers are out for Walter Winchell. Russell Crouse and. the writer of this letter. Just where the movement will end is a question. The scheme to induce the column- ists to appear behind the footlights is a result of what is “nown, in pro- fessional circles. as “showmanship. Vaudeville hasn't been in a healthy condition herea bouts for some* months. The talking pictures have dealt it a staggering blow and some- thing must be done to revive interest in i.

Official statements from the board say that it does not plan to attempt to g the market any more. And that t does not intend to lend so much more money is indicated by Chair- man Legge’s statment that he does not intend to ask Congress for any more. It is true that the board still has @ lot of money on hand, but the fact that it hag so much on hand and nothing to do with it would indicate that it hasiabout come to the end of ite high finaricing. Cha Legge’s original aim was to foster farm cooperatives to the — of where they controlled one- alf of the crop. With this control he reasoned they could control the markets. Legge’s Goal Not Attained. ‘He has not attained that goal. In fact, he did not hope to attain it by this time. As long as the board re- mains, of course, it will continue to @ncourage the formation of coopera- tives, and as long as it has any money will continue to encourage them financially, although indications are that it will do so more begrudgingly in the future.

With fiéry language he warned the members that they must continue their onslaught upon capi- talism, the Kulaks and other enemies of the proletarian dictatorship. “If we wish to retain our successes in the future we must continue to work under the, banner of Leninism,” he thundered, “for only under ihis banner will revolution conquer—n> only in our country but throughput the world.” The ovation to the Soviet leader came when he said.the party never ad been so strongly united arotnd central committee as at presén:. “There is no fully-formed, united opposition in this hall which would dare openly to alienate itself against the policies of the party,” he con- tinued, and his words were viewed as a warning to the Right-wingers and kKyviests and others who &t- iY By- DAVID RANKIN BARBEE.

His appointment came wunso- licited, and he is authority for the statement that until it was an- nounced by Attorney General Mitch- ell he had no inkling that he was even under consideration for it. In all the great Department of Justice the new administrator alone had a record of compelling signifi- cance. On the strength of that rec- ord, accortiing to United States Cir- cult Judge W. S.

He aroused laughter among the sober-visaged delegates when he re- marked that the only industry in capitalistic countries which does not suffer depression is the military in- dustry. “Capitalism will seek to escape from the world crisis by war and intervention,” he added, “while the proletariat wil achieve new victories by\ revolution. We still adhere strict- ly to the policy of peace. We do not want anyone's land, nor will we give a single inch of our own land to any one.” Stalin said the economic struggle among great capitalistic powers such as Great Britain and the United States is becoming more intense, the main areas of competition being China, South America and the Brit- ish dominions, with the advantage on the side of thé United States. “The present economic crisis throughout the world,” Stalin said, “IntenBifies the struggle between France and Italy for northern Africa and for ruling the Mediterranean.

Tall Europe Peak The tax on government employes Gained by Science Berlin, June 28 (A.P.).—Germany today looked toward its bachelors and bachelor girls to replenish its treasury. A revised financial program, backed by Chancellor Heinrich Bruening and his new finance minister, Dr. Her- mann Dietrich, was laid before the | Reichsrat, and the cabinet hopes to rush it .through the upper house and the Reichstag as soon as possible. Under its provisions about one- fourth of the millions required to wipe out the government deficit will be taken from those unwed. It is estimated that the taxes levied against bachelors and bachelor girls will ac- count for 110,000,000 marks (about $25,000,000) of the 480,00,000 marks the finance minister is scheming to raise to balance the budget. The remainder of the deficit will be made up by slashing 100,000,000 marks of expenditures and laying a special tax on government employes and all persons with incomes running above 8,000 marks a year. In other words, an unmarried wom- an who also is a government employe and earns 8,100 marks a year would be hit fm three ways—for being un- married, for holding a government job and for earning more than $168 a month.

Chairman Legge was reputed at the outset to have envisoned a great pool by which American and Canadian co- operatives would get together and control the world market. But his path has been beset by obstacles over which he had no control. The belief of observers generally is that if anybody could have done any- thing to relieve the situation Chair- Man Legge was the man. But as it turned out, it is believed that most of the entreaties to come from the Farm Board in the future will be to cut. down on the acreage. It will be an official, organized en- treaty. Otherwise it will be no dif- ferent from what has been urged of the farmers for many years. Leaders Have No Worry. Also, leaders and pilots who got their names in the papers do not need to worry. Byrd will lecture; fliers will go back to their old posts or others as good; scientific men will, be busy for several months compiling data collected in the Antarctic. Ten of the crew will be employed on the as yet umannounced exhibition tour of the City of New York. But the rank and file of the men, and certainly those who ask for work, seemingly have no idea of the bally- hoo value of their great experience. Their contracts forbid their writing or lecturing, it is true, but certainly wee some of them to show themselves with igloo and dog team at Coney Island or the Palace. They just don't seem to have thought of it. One “old-time circus man”. did offer to buy the Eleanor Bolling and exhibit it, hiring any of the crew who wanted to go along, big naturally this scheme—which would compete with. the expedition’s own deficit- paying tour—was speedily rejected. Anyway, ballyhoo jobs are not what the Byrd men want. Some of them want to settle down at home. Others want to start right out again on a new adventure, but they are all will- ing to work.

Curious, she walked to the edge of the porch and gazed after him. “A brand-new 85 bill,” she repeated to herself, and went back into the house. She slipped a finger under the [fold of the sealed envelope and tore it open. At that moment the doorbell rang. She ran to the door and opened it slowly. ‘ “What's the matter, afraid to let me come in?” Fred Turner asked, stepping into the room and closing the door after him. “Where's every- body?’ “Gone to bed.” said Janet, lightly. “How are you, Fred?” “Great!""

Fee. Washington 7) ] — M WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, JUNE 29, 1930. — ~~ 13 \NATS SWEEP DETROIT SERIES, WINNING FINAL, 12- O YOU suppose it would be held against me if I were to say , that the thrill of watching a crew race, even with nine shells on the water as there have been these Jast two yars at Poughkeepsie, is no compensation for the physical dis- ‘tress that the spectator must endure in attending the show? I know that sports are for enthusiasts and that a true enthusiast will put up with con- siderable discomfort and be scarcely aware of it, as in the case of the football crowd which sits through a bitter afternoon in some windswept arena, through snow and sleet, warm- ed only by draughts of such sheep- dip or paint-remover as happens to be the wine of that particular sec- tion of the country. Several times I have achieved this detachment myself. Once at the first Tunney-Dempsey prize fight, where I noticed the rain only as a matter of professional observation for my piece, and plumb forgot that I had brought a raincoat until I was on my way out when I tripped over it and remember- ed that I had folded it away beneath the bench early in the afternoon. Another time I had no sense that I, personally, was being rained upon was the night of the prize fight be- tween Mickey Walker and Ace Hud- kins at the White Sox ball yard in Chicago, where the water stood in a two-inch pool in a depression in the middle of the ring and the two young savages, both wounded and sobbing in their frenzy, kicked up pink sheets of spray as they paddled through it. That Was Cruel, Cold Day. And that was a cruel, cold day when Notre Dame beat the Army at the Yankee Stadium last fail, but after some early shudders I didn’t again realize how cold I was and how brittle my fingers were on the tiddly- winks of the keyboard until the game Was over, the crowd was gone and we inmates of the press section were left alone in the dark, Mr. E. Generous Barrow, the business manager of the Yankee firm, having thrown the light switch, pursuant to his motto that a penny saved is a penny earned. Then we all began to notice the chill and lonelinéss of our plight and to sympathize with ourselves, a little hurt, maybe, that the football play- ers didn’t come up and sit through with us. If I hadn’t known the play- ers I probably would not have been insulated against the weather during the game, but I did know the Army crowd to a man and some of the Notre Dame players, too, and this ac- quaintance imparted a special warmth to my enthusiasm on a day when a party needed all possible warmth. S- I think I am an enthusiast about sport and, being so minded, I think this puts the burden of proof upon the regatta at Poughkeepsie, where, every time I have watched the Oarsmen row, I have been more aware of.the physical wretchedness of the crowd than of the glory of the spec- tacle. In fact, any one who struggles up to the quite inadequate town of Poughkeepsie, over the inevitable de- tours, from a road that is always be- ing built but never will be finished, and then puts himself through the rigors of an afternoon down in the dusty, gritty valley along the railroad right of way is bound to experience more stress than pleasure because cre\wy men are almost all anonymous and there are no persondities to root for. In addition to which a boat race isn’t that thrilling, anyway. What Is a Boat Race? From ‘the spectators’ point of view, what is a boat race? Nine long splinters of cedar paddle about in- terminably, while a surveyor on the river bank squints through his finder, lining up little, flat-bottomed stake- boats, so that no one shell shall have am advantage of as much as 8 inches in a 4-mile race. Two assistants stand by him, one on each side, mo- notonously waving white signal flags in a figure 8 motion, while the jock- eys on the dories far out on the water tug at their oars, dragging their hitching weights along the bottom an inch or two at a time until, at last, the surveyor decides that they are arrayed as close to an arbitrary hairline as they are ever going to be and passes the word to the referee's boat to send them away. The shells then pull into line and back their sterns into the hands of the stake-boat attendants, who grab them by the rudder posts and, just when everything seems ready, the Coatinued on Page 18, Column 6. a Wallace Motor Com- pany guaranteed used car to drive on your VACATION Our many satisfied cus- tomers signify their » walue. .

KING (Associated Press Sports Writer). IMBLEDON, England, June 28 (A.P.)—When the big canvas cover that protects the pre- cious turf of the famous center court was drawn 4nto place tonight at the close of the first week's play in the Wimbledon championships, the names of American players dotted the final Stages of the draw sheets. Unless untoward events oqur next week at least three 1930 Wimbledon titles are likely to go to the United States. And that isn’t counting on a pos- sible victory for Big Bill Tilden over Henri Cochet, reigning singles cham- pion, but only on Helen Wills Moody winning her fourth women’s singles title in as many years, Wilmer Alli- son and John Van Ryn repeating their men’s doubles triumph of last season, and the new firm of Mrs. Moody and Elizabeth Ryan taking the women’s doubles crown. Tilden-Cochet Final Is Prospect. The Tilden-Cochet final is in pros- pect for next Saturday and, although the tall American was given a stiff fight during some stages of his match today against Ed Andrews, equallv tall and considerably more massive New Zealander, Tilden’s rare gifts for the game were his allies in tight cor- ners and he won three straight sets, 6—4, 6—4, 6—2. Tilden was the fifth American to reach the final eight in the men's singles play, George Lott having gained his niche by beating the South African, P. D. B. Spence, 6—1, 6—3. 10—8. Spence, a canny veteran, has played only intermittent tennis lately and across the net from the Chicago youth today appear’el sorely in need of practice. Lott’s skimming drivés and aggres- sive tactics gave him mastery until the third set when he allowed Spence to pull up from 4 to 1 in games to lead him and play for the set point at 5—6 and ‘vantage, but Lott pulled out and finally won the set 10—8. Lott in Best Form. Lott’s game today-—and particular- ly that of the smashing, hard hitting Allison and Van Ryn in the doubles ——-was typical of the American type of tennis seen all week at Wimble- don, tennis typified by severe hitting in every type of stroke and by every player from Helen Moody’s effortless drives, which at their strongest all but knocked her opponents off their feet, to the strong attacks of men such as Gregory Mangin, Van Ryn, and Johnny Doeg. Tilden has power if he carés to summon it, but the variety of his strokes is his court. strategy and his deft, delicate touches still give him unrivaled place among the Americans as a matinee Aattrac- tion for the Wimbledon crowds, but their wagers are likely to be on the machinelike Frenchman, Cochet, if the two meet next Saturday. What Tilden can do at his best is a question often asked at Wimbledon, but with Cochet winning through all his early rounds with ease he is still very much of a favorite despite the great record of play Tilden has es- tablished in Europe in the past six months. Tilden’s next opponent will be J. C. Gregory, who is Great Britain’s only representative in the final eight, and if he wins he faces Jean Borotra or George Lott, in the semifinals. In the upper half of the draw are Cochet and three Americans. The Frenchman must beat Allison to meet the winner of the Mangin-Doeg match. In the women’s singles Mrs. Moody dominates her half of the draw where the others are Phyllis Mudford, her next opponent, Joan Ridley and Mme. Mathieu, of France. The lower half comprises Betty Nuthall and Eliza- beth Ryan, Helen Jacobs and Cecelie Aussem, the German star. Four American Teams In Running. Only three rounds of the men's doubles have been played and there are four American pairs still in the running. The title holders, Allison and Van Ryn, who whipped the Japa- nese pair, Timeo Abe and Takeichi Harada today, 6—3, 6—4, 6—4, have as companions George Lott and Johnny Doeg, Berkeley Bell and Gregory Mangin, and Tilden, who is paired with the Dutchman, Hans Timmer. Mrs. Moody and Elizabeth Ryan, Edith Cross, of San Francisco and Sarah Palfrey, of Boston, also have reached the third round of the wom- en's doubles, while Allison and Miss Cross, Mangin and Miss Palfrey, and the Anglo-American pair, J Craw- ford and Miss Ryan are in the third round of the mixed doubles. Monday's play includes Tilden against J. C. Gregory, Allison against Cochet, Manyin agaisnt Doerg, and Borotra against Lott in the singles. eases seen omar stan steerer Decatur 3320 Conventently Located on Fourteenth Street Sande Pilots Gallant Fox To Victory Colt Takes $10,000 Dwyer; Is Pressed by Xenofol. Increases Earnings to $313,000; Limbus Takes Show. QUEDUCT RACE TRACK, N. Y., June 28 (A.P.).—Willlam Wood- ward’s Gallant Fox, winner of the Wood Memorial, Preakness, Ken- tucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes, added the Dwyer Stakes to his list when he won the event here today and by his victory can be acclaimed champion ef the 3-year-old division, Gallant Fox was ridden by Earl Sandé and the veteran rode a perfect race on the son of Sir Galahad III. The colt carried 126 pounds and ran the mile and a half in 2:32 2-5, which is 3 and 2-5 seconds slower than the track record for the distance. Gallant Fox has now won a grand total of $210,220 in his two years of racing and stands an excellent chance of surpassing Zev's record of $313,000. Sande Has to Use Whip On Gallant Fox. While Gallant Fox won he did not win with the ease in which he scored his previous victories. Sande had to use the whip freely on the colt. At the far turn Sande hit Gallant Fox and again in the stretch the boy used the whip, but Gallant Fox gave his best. The stact was good. Limbus broke first and went right to the front followed by Gallant Fox. They passed the stand the first time in this order with Limbus leading Gal- lant Fox by a length. Around the paddock turn the field swept with Limbus still leading Gallant Fox by a length. However, as they made the turn into the back stretch Sande sent Gal- lant Fox up to the leader. They ran head and head for the next half mile and then Gallant Fox took command. Once in the lead it was all over. He drew out in the stretch, but Sande again used the whip when Xenofol challenged. However, Gallant Fox held him safe to win by ofe and a half lengths. Xenofol beat Limbus six lengths for the place. The winner received $11,500.

Hunnefield in Trade For Toledo Shortstop Chicago, June 28 (A.P.).—Another step in the reconstruction of the Chi- cago White Sox was taken today with the purchase of Gordon Mulleavéy, sensational shortstop with the Tolei> Club of the American Association. The White Sox gave two players for the young star. William WHunnefield, an infielder, and Bob Weiland, young left-handed pitcher, were sent to the Toledo C'ub in exchange for Mulleavey. Hunne- field and Weiland were releasad on option. Mulleavey will join the White Sox in New York on Monday. Scouts for the club say Mulleavey is the best infielding prospect in the American Association, as well as a dangerous hitter. Al Mamaux Appointed To Succeed Speaker Newark, N. J., June 28 (A.P.).—Al Mamaux, former pitching ace of the Brooklyn Nationals, was today ap- pointed manager of the Newark Base- ball Club, of the International League, it was announced by Presi- dent J. P. Sinnott. Mamaux suc- ceeds Tris Speaker, who resigned this week. Mamaux, who is 36 years old, got his major league start with the Pitts- burgh Pirates in 1913, going to Brooklyn in 1918 in the trade that sent Burleigh Grimes and Aaron Ward to the Robins for Casey Sten- gel and George Cutshaw. After three years with Reading, of the International Circuit, he went to Newark in 1926, where he led the league, winning nineteen games and losing seven for an earned run record of 2.22. He again led the circuit the following year, losing only two games, while winning ten. In 1928 he ranked ninth and last year sixth. Percy Wyer, 42, Victor In Detroit Marathon Detroit, Mich., June 28 (A.P.).— Percy Wyer, of the Monarch Athletic Club of Toronto, despite his 42 years and a mishap in which he was knocked down by a motorcycle, jogged his 98 pounds to victory in the annual marathon of the Cadillac Athletic Club here today to win the event for the third time and gain permanent possession of the mara- thon trophy. He covered the 26 miles and 385 yards in 2 hours and 59 minutes. Alec Burnside and Ezra Lee, also of the Monarch Club, finished fourth and seventh, respectively, to give the Toronto organization first place in points for the day. Albert Michaelson, of the Millrose A. A., New York, finished seven min- utes behind Wyer to take second piace. Michaelson had led from the 17-mile mark to the 28-mile rcst, where Wyer took the lead and held it. ~ The scores of the games were 13 to'1 and 14 to 2. Henry Johnson gave the Indians only seven hits in the first game. while Roy Sherid excelled that per-| formance in the second, allowing but five. The Yankees started each game by scoring seven runs in the Iirst inning. Johnson capped the {first game rally by hitting a home run and Chapman repeated in the second. Ruth's two homers came in the! second game, one off Holloway and one off Gliatto. In his record year, he did not hit his twenty-ninth until July 9. PIRST GAME. ABH O N 3 Cleveland.

HILADELPHIA, June 28 (A.P.).— Scoring a run in the ninth in- ning after the St. Louls Browns had tied the count at 5 to 5 by scor- ing one in their last turn at bat, the Philadeiphia Athletics won a victory |today by a score of 6 to 5 and main- tained their slight grip on first place. Jimmy Foxx put the Mackmen in the game when he wiped a 3 to 0 deficit by hitting his twenty-first home run of the season, with two on base in the rixth inning. In the next inning Migkey Cochrane singled two more runs across the plate, which the Browns recovered in dribbles of one in the eighth and ninth McNair Atones for Error With Hit in 9th. Eric McNair, who unleashed a wild throw that gave the visitors the tying run, atoned for his miscue, when he opened the last balf of the final in- ning with a double. Bishop followed with another two-base crack, ending the game. St. Louis. Blue.ib... McNeely.cf Goslin.if.. Kress.ss.. Gullic.rf.. Melillo.2b. O'R'rke.3b Manion.c. tBadero.. Perreli.c.. Collina.p..

IN THE WAKE OF THE GAME AMMY WEST traveled a mile to- S ward left center to make a great one-hand catch of Genhringer'’s looper in the first frame, robbing the batter of at least a double and the Tigers of a run, for Johnson was on second at the time Hadley walked Desaultels on four successive wide ones in the second. Myer ended round 2 for the visitors by making a brilliant stop and peg of | Hoyt’s roller over back of first. Buddy, who has been “oiling some exceptional | fielding of late, in addition to hitting well, made the catch with one hand while on the dead run. The Nats filled the bases in their second without the need of a hit, Koenig's error and two passes putting the runners on the paths. Waite Hoyt certainly was a “cousin” to the Nats yesterday. Of the eight native hits made in the first three’ frames, six were good for extra bases Judge and Ruel tripled, while Harris was credited with two doubles and | | Cronin and Bluege with one each. Hadley retired the Tigers on strikes in the fourth, setting down Alexan- der. Stone and Koenig as fast as they appeared at the swinging block. Manush and the Nats received a “break” opening the fourth round when Heinie’s liner hopped over Stone’s head and went for a triple. But for this eird hop, it would have netted but one base Gehringer went over to the foul line in short right to make a nice play on Bluege's pop-foul. Ruel, who slightly injured his finger on a foul-tip in the Tiger fourth, gave way to Spencer behind the bat in the | next inning. Manush came in fast for Johnson's | low looper opening the sixth, grab- | bing it close behind third base | sixth was a in left limited double in the which drove home Genhringer, drive almost into the stands center.

Harris and Judge Prominent in Nat Batting. By FRANK H. YOUNG. LTHOUGH yesterday was listed as “Joe Judge Day,” the Na- tionals decided to make it an entire team affair, turning back the Detroit Tigers, 12 to 3, for a sertes sweep which enabled the Johnsons to equal their longest winning streak of the Season, the triumph being their eighth in a row. Usually the hero of the occasion flivvers on days arranged in his hon- or. but Judge crossed the dope by cracking out three hits, scoring once himself, and driving two mates over the plate, besides fielding filashily. The victory enabled the Nats to hold their own with the league-leading Mackmen, who again downed the Chi- SOX, Mystery as to Why Hoyt Was Not Removed. Irving Hadley and Wait Hoyt were the respective hurlers, both going the route, although no one Knows just why or how the former Yankee man- aged to do it. Hadley was in great form, allowing but five hits and three of these came in the ninth after the Nats had the game in their Dag and began siowing up their pace. It Was second complete game twice, too Hoyt appeared to be the softest kind of pickings and the Nats put the game in the cooler in the first three innings, when they rung up 6ix runs as a result of 3-run splurges in the first and third. And these markers were the results of solid smacks, too, for seven of the first nine native hits were extra-basers. Until the visitors molded a marker in the sixth,@when a double followed a base on balls, only one Tiger had gotten as far as second base. The other alien runs came in the ninth when no one cared much. Judge Shares Hitting Honors of Day. Proving that he was the hero of the day arranged in his honor, Judge shared joint hitting honors. In five times up. he hit a double and two singles and walked once. Dave Har- ris, with two douVles and a single, and Joe Cronin, with one two-bagger and two one-shots, were the others to get three safeties each. All told, the Nats cracked out 17, with all but Hadley and Spencer contributing to the total. Marty McManus hit two doubles, almost half of the safeties allotted to the Harrismen. The Nats began calling Hoyt “cous- in” from the moment he toed the slab, Myer greeting him with a single and then stealing second. West and Manueh were retired, but then came a Washington uprising which almost ran the tongues out of the alien fiy-chasers Cronin doubled, Harris followed suit, and Judge picked out this spot for his triple. Result— three runs. In the third the home gang doubled its total. Harris gpened this round with his second two-base clout, Judge following by beating out a bunt. luege’s first double and Ruel’s triple Continued on Page 15, Column 5. HOME RUN STANDING | YESTERDAY.

ESTING on even terms at the top of the team standings, the Arlington and Acme Printing Co, Nines encounter formidable foes today in the Capital City League Junior Class title Face, Sammy Bucculo; who has taken over the management of the Merid- lans, who will henceforth campaign under the, Clifton Barber standards, will semd his club against the Arling- tons on East Ellipse diamond at 3 o'clock. ¢ Acmes are booked with the St. ephen’s Nine, representing the Foggy Bottom section. Arlington's Loss Addz Interest: While the pacemakers are meeting threatening foes, the Takoma WNine will tackle the Mardelles on No. 3 diamond at 3 o'clock; the Lionels will engage the Bethesda lads on West Ellipse diamond at 3 o'clock, and the Kensington and Y Flash Clubs will clash at 1 o'clock on the Plaza dia- mond. Bethesda'’s upset thirteen-inning victory over the Arlingtons last week has added new interest to the Junior Class pennant race. WYth the end of the first series in sight, neither of the leading teams is going to take any chances. Should both bow today, five or six teams would be thrown in a } heap around the top of the standings. The Lionel-Bethesda contest also promises to develop into a bitter bat- tle. Both teams are anxious to get into the thick of the first series title fight if either of the leaders waivers. The victim today will be practically eliminated from first round conten- tion. Seymour, Wallach May Pitch. Manager Stevens, of the Arlingtons, and Jim Hare, who pilote the Acmes, plan to send their mound aces into action today. Seymour or McPherson will probably get the call fer the Ar- lingtons against the Meridians. Wa)- lach is the Acmes’ best bet with Kuhnert a possibility. Three more games remain on the first round schedule for the junior | teams after today’s card is completed. It is probable that the ultimate win- | ner will be unknown until the final contest of the series. Bauserman Motor Nine To Battle Shady Oaks Dutch Durham, left-handed pitch- ing ace of the Shady Oak Nine, is slated to hurl against the Bauserman Motor Co.

Frank Shores gave Eddie Jacobs many anxious moments in thelr match. Starting well, Shores fought the early part of the issue on a deuce game basis. Both players relied large- ly upon placements, steering clear of crashing returns. Placements proved to be Jacobs’ forte, and the champion varied his returns with short chops and deep drives.. Jacobs’ cross-court attack was thrown largely on the defensive A desperate stand was made by Shores in the third set with Jacobs holding set point advantage. The game score was 40-15 and Shores made it deuce. Jacobs faulted on his service and Shores seized the final point with a line drive to his op- ponent’s backhand. Jacobs snapped into it and hurriedly captured the next game ta clinch the title brand of base Hines-Beaver Net Pair Cotton States Champs Anniston, Ala.

POUR } i | | i / Burroughs Park Tennis in Tourney Play (This is another of a series of arti- cles dealing with outstanding tennis players of the District, written by Bob Considine.) RANCES KRUCOFF owes much of her success to her brother, who was largely instrumental in forming of. her backcourt game, a game which has repulsed the con- attacks of local women Of course, she owes much-of it to herself. She is one of the very iew local women tournament players wlLo _ systematically train for the tennis /season. She has found that proper rest and diet will out when the score gets close in the last set. That, however, is a useless state- ment. She seems never to be pressed. She has hung up an amazing list of 6—0, 6—0 wins, hardly paralleled in local or any other tennis. It is a surprising fact that three or four local girls defeat Miss Kru- coOff in practice matches. . If it were not for her almost superb spirit those defeats would show up in tournament play. In a tournament she oraces | deadly perseverance is a’ confidence | perceptively and becomes the cool, (crafty and unrelenting tactician, ‘skidding her hard, slfpping chops from corner to corner. I heard a _ well-known local player say, “Frances has all of licked before’ we start to play.” it’s the truth. Tournament tennis, with her, seems to be something apart from mere tennis. She goes on the court with the express purpose of winning, and winning as so0on,4s it is humanly possible. Added to this | girl | Us | A‘1d | that is never shaken. Miss Krucoff wins entirely from the back court From that position she directs all play, seeing to it that .she refrains from running and that her opponent does much of it. She comes to the net only when forced to do so. Her volley is insecure, as insecure as her service and her over- head. Miss Krucoff is the One consistent local tournament player. The men sparkle and flounder intermittently, and the other women also, But she maintains a high standard. As far as I can see, she will be champion as long as she pleases—and possibly ihe year after that. Singles Matches Are Hard Fought. Though the scores don't show it, all four singles matches were hotly contested, the losers carying many games to deuce before yielding. Maj Ropertson gave Lieut, Hedekin a ter- rific fight, but was forced to bow to youth and speed. In the loné upset, the Hobbs- Christenberry Team was handicapped by the tired condition of Maj Kobbs, _who had played a singles match just before taking the court against Lieuts. Lewis and Mathews. This match was to have been played sev- eral hours later, but was moved up in order that Lieut. Lewis, who is a Washingtonian, could attend the wed- ding of his brother. . There is an intermission in the program today. The singles semifi- nals are carded tomorrow and the fi- nals on Tuesday. The doubles semi- _finals will pe played Wednesday and the finals on Thursday. row’s matches, Maj. Van Viiet will meet Lieut. Heéedekin and Lieut. Strahan will oppose Lieut. Robinson.

H. Hills, D. D . , referee decides to go for a spin in his yacht, much the same as a bat- ter steps out of his box to relax when the pitcher has kept him waiting too long. The referee's boat does a half- mile circle and comes up behind the line again and the spectators hear him yell through his megaphone, “Are you ready?” They all look ready enough atter six months of training, but just then No. 6 in the Cornell boat decides that his tights are chafing and passes the sign to his coxswain, who raises his arm. This causes ahother delay, and when the referee's voice comes moaning over the water again, “Are you ready?” up goes the Penn coxswain’s arm. It seems that in his boat No. 7's bangs have blown over his eyes and the boy needs a moment's time. ‘Another “Are you ready?” and this time some one in an unidentified boat way over toward the outer lane has just been attacked by a Junebug and wants time to scratch himself. Referee Raises His Megaphone. They are now apparently all ready and the referee raises his megaphone again, but by this time the official yacht has drifted sidelong to the start, so the skipper gives the ‘en- gine room a couple of bells for an- other, turn up river, to come about, bow on. By now the people sitting on the flat cars along. the right-of-way haven't been able to twitch a muscle for five or six hours. You attempt to relieve your posture and you jam a knee into the smalf of some stranger’s back just before you.’ You try to drop your cigarette off the car and a moment later there is an odor, as of burning rope, and the blonde in the next seat holds up $185 worth of white sports jacket with a burned hole as big as a quarter in a very conspicuous place. There is no breeze down in the valley, although the trees are nodding and showing the silver siie of their leaves up on the Palisades. The people are moist and sooty and gritty and shirts are clammy and white pants look as though they had been slept in down some coal hole. Now, by some miracle, the referee, the stake-boats and the coxswains finding themselves all agreed, the starting gun gives a grunt, sending the shells away. Up yonder, somewhere, the ehn- gineer of the train lets the clutch jump in and jerks the long string of cars about 20 yards down river, dump- ing the lady customers into the wrong laps. There ensues a twenty minute spell of rowing, which is quite spirited and brave and well worth seeing in the moving pictures, but, the specta- tors on the train are thinking of the hell to come—the long mile over oily roads, the railroad ties and cinders back to the’ ferryhouse, the hour. of suffocation. before they reach the Poughkeepsie shore, the uphill mile to the town in tte stifling heat, the burnt steaks and soggy French fried tatoes in the cafe or the fried chicken table d@’hotes at $4 per head in the roadhouses along the way out.

HOULD the Middfe Atlantic Gof Association hold a junior cham- pionship tournament? The as- S sociation’s fixed events now include’ a men'sand a women’s champiensbi but there is hing to attract sou petition among the younger golfers, although the junior championship of the District of Columbia Golf Asso- elation is-a popular event. ee James D. Preston, the local member of the public links committee of the Nited States Golf Association, and a warm friend of the golfers in the Tising generation, is earnestly ad- vocating the junior championship proposition. He suggests, however, that, eligibility be restricted to boys who have not pessed their seven- teenth birthday. This would mean, of course, the elimination of many of the outstand- ing juniors. William R. “Billy” Howell, of thé Hermitage Club, Rich- mond, Va., for instance, is 18 years of age and has a record which ought wt insure him the Middle Atlantic junior title, for he won the Virginia State championship two years ago, when he was 16; is now the Middle Atlantic champion and recently won the Columbia Club invitation tour- nament. Roger Peacock, the present District junior champion, is 18, and Byrn Curtiss, George T. Sharp and James C. Drain, jr., jumior club cham- pions at Indian Spring, Columbia and Washington, respectively, are all past their seventeenth birthdays. While there is a large field of young golfers between 18 and 21 who give promise of becoming fine, players, the fact is that the number who are under 17 is comparatively limited. Morris Nee at Manor, Jack Jester at Washington, Robert and James Brownell and Harold Graves, jr. at Indian Spring, and Wilgam Asher, Page Cornwell, William §E. Shannon 2d, Junior Dodge and A. Slater, jr.. at Columbia, are among those who can be mentioned, but the field is really restricted. : Competitive Spirit ls Boys’ Need. Preston's idea is to develop a com- petitive spirit among the younger boys, but it is claimed, on the other hand, that they would be more likely to improve their game if they played against lads who were more expert than themselves. Leaving all discus- sion aside, however, it would be well for the Middle Atlantic Association to stage a junior tournament. It would pecome just as important as the com- petit.ons new arranged for the older players. The Indian Spring Club has ar- ranged a field day for next Wednes- day. Invited guests will have the privilege of the course without the payment of green fees and an out- door supper and some boxing bouts will conclude the program. C. V. Wheeler is the only senior at the Chevy Chase Club who has noted down a cO q ete score of eighteen holes. He hus a card of 34—32—66, three under par, with birdies on the fourth, fifth, tenth and fourteenth holes and all the other holes in par except the eighth, where he has not yet been able to secure a par “5. Yandes Wheeler recently made an eagle 2 on the third hole by pitching with a mashie into the cup, but, un- fortunately, this could not be put down on his father’s card. $ Teams for the Bannockburn and Argyle Clubs will play a match on the Argyle course this afternoon. At the Indian Spring Club this afternoon there’ will be a four-ball match be- tween J. Monro Hunter and George Diffenbaugh, the home club profes- sionals, and Frank Hartig and R. Cliff McKimmie, professionals of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Club. Ball, Leary Win in Income Tax Play. The mixed Scotch foursomes of the Income Tax Unit Golf League played last week on the East Potomac Park / court resulted in a victory for Char- ‘ lotte Ball and Frank R. Leary with a card of 51—20—31. The runners- up were Anne Murray and Joseph Cor- bley, Four teams tied for third place with 36s. The women players drove from the even-numbered tees and the men from the odd-numbered tees. The fifth annual invitation tourna- ment of the Sherwood Forest Golf Course will be played on July 11, 12 and 13. with a field consisting of six sixteens. The qualifying round will be eighteen holes and, as usual, the final rounds of match play are sched- uled for Sunday afternoon. The tour- nament committee is composed of Harry E. Kelsey, chairman; Wiliam F. Cochran and . Earle Murray. This evenf usually attracts a large number of Washington golfers. Is there such a thing as “getting the breaks” in a golf game? J. E. McCabe, a member of the Washing- ton Golf and Country QOlub, who won the low gross prize when the Trans- portation Building Tournament was held recently % the Manor course, arsvers in the affirmative, but he adds that his good luck may be due to the fact that he. is a southpaw golfer. Ball Caroms Off’ Tree to Cup. On the seventh hole he pulled his tee shot and then played a Slice, which seemed destined to disappear deep in the forest. *Instead, his bail hit several limps of trees and bounded baek within 3 feet of the cup so that he easily secured his birdie 3. On the eighth hole he igain pulled his tee shot into heavy crass on the edge of the woods and 6)- though he was 30 yards from the cup, he pitched it in for a birdie 2. Nor was this the end. On the twelfth he hit a low liner that slapped the top of a huge rock. The ball bounded 75 yards up the fairway for an easy shot to the green to get his par 4 As usual when M H_ Robb starts a tournament it rained, and the Transportation Building event ‘Was no exception. Playing with McCabe and A. K. Shipe, the trio went around the course using their clubs for paddles as they navigated from hule to hole. Of the 36 players wno started only 21 turned in cards. The other fifteen swam back to the club- house. It was one of the wejcest tournaments ever played and four chips on greens where the hales were under water Was a common experi- ence. Members of the Woodmont Club returned last week greatly elated over their victory in the intercity seam match played at Richmond, Va., on the Lakeside course. In the best-hall match they won by 9 points po Tx whose score was §4—19—35. while in the single matches they had 19 points to 14 for their op- ponents. | , The Woodmont players included Howard Nordlinger, William G. Mich, Fulton Brylawski, Mofris~ Simon, Daniel Sherby. Robert Weyl and Gilbert Hahn, with A. &. a fo? ae Steinem and Maurice Eiseman as, alternates, Ilich, Baum and Gold- smith led their side. in the four-ball matches with clean sweeps of 3 points each, with Nordlinger and Weyl each scoring 2. , Assistant Attorney General Seth W. Richardson was playing on ge eben of the Washington Golf and ntry Club at week with Aubrey Lawrence and H. F. Helwig. Presently one of the trio picked up a tee. And at reminded the official of a golf story. “Out in Chicago,” he said, “one of the older members of a certain club was famoWs for the care with which he recovered his own tee and for picz~- ing up all the tees he could find. It was mot the value of the tee with him, for’ he had money enough to start a factory, but it was a habit which became more and more pro- nounced. One day some of the club members went out and scattered tees like feeding corn to chickens down the first fairways, just pefore their fellow-member went out to play. “The old gentleman saw the tees and ‘began to get busy. He com- menced picking them up with both hands and stuffing them into his pockets. Behind him, but unknown to him, was another member with a pocket camera taking moving pic- tures and when the club held its an- nual dinner these’ pictures were shown. Did the victim. get peeved? Not at all. He laughed with the rest of the crowd and @ day or two later» he equipped every hole with @ large box of tees, telling the mem- bers to help themselves with his com- pliments. So the story had a happy sequel, after all.” Playing on the Rock Creek course last week, in a tolrnament staged by the employes of the Bureau of Stand- ards, a hole-in-one was made by Will- iam L. Pendergast, of the Bannock- burn Club. He was particularly happy because, although he has been Playing golf many years and was at one time champion of his club, he had never before had the good for- tune to secure an ace. Mise Williams Wine At Congressional. In the tournament for women members of the Congressional Club played last week, match play against par, the winner was Virginia Williams, who was 1 down. Mrs. Monroe E. Miller was runner-up, 2 down. In the second division there was a tie, Miss Harvey and Mrs. C. B. Murphy each being 5 down. Rather than play an- ether eighteen holes they tossed a coin and Mrs. Murphy won the prize. Dr. E. R. Tilley stood on the’ first tee of the Ipdian Spri Club last week. Near him was J. nro Hunter, the club professional, who casually remarked that he had played the course a day or two before with seven. teen pars and one birdie. ; “Something to shoot for,” said Til- ey. When Tilley had finished his round he had sixteen pars to his credit, with birdies on the thirteenth and fif- teenth. He was one over par on the third and had a 5 on the tenth, when he took three putts. In classic jan- guage, he seen his duty and he done it. é, Some time ago F. B. Davis, of the Bannockburn Club, donated a trophy. As the Bannockburn Club has already on its program a 72-hole medal play for the Tom Moore Cup and match play for the Henry-Williams Cup, as well as other fixed events, the golf committee has decided to offer the Davis Cup as a prize in a Scotch four- some competition, to be played for during the month. Rounds will be played until the contest ends. 150-Yard Mashie Shot Gets Eagle 2. Robert E. J. Whelan, playing with Louls Spiess, last week scored an eagle 2 on the eleventh hole of the Indian Spring, holing out with a mashie from a distance of 150 yards. As his best previous record on the hole was 5, one stroke over par, he is now hoping that he will some day split the difference and play the hole in the regulation four strokes. And speaking of eagles, let it be recorded that Dr. L. 8. O’Tell cap- tured an eagle 3 on the third hole at Argyle last week. The hole is about 460 yards in length and O’Tell was on the green with a drive and spoon, holing a 12-foot putt. He was playing with William P. Di Este, Elli- ott Spicer and Thomas 8. Pitt. At the Congressional course in a handicap match play round recently two players, former District Commis- sioner Taliaferro and A. C. Williams, ended all eyen and there was some uncertainty as to the next procedure. “The rules of golf themselves make no provision for plaving off ties in handicap mawtwhes,° wrives lanis Brown, the rules expert on the ataff of the American Golfer, “but the United States Golf Association has consistently held that the match must be played over unless the num- ber of handicap strokes involved is seven and equally divided between the two nines. [n this case the players may, if mutually agreeable, play off at nine holes, playing half of the handicap for eighteen holes in the order shown on the card.” Play Golf Today on.

The avowed determination of influ- ential pacifist groups to prevent naval construction of any kind after the naval treaty has been ratified has aroused the apprehension of some senators who would be disposed to favor the treaty, but who will not vote for it if it is to be made an excuse for abandonment of naval building. These senators are not willing to agree to parity with Great Britain and a fixed ratio with Japan unless there is some guarantee that the United States Navy will be built up to treaty levels. Pacifists are already advancing the argument that the treaty will make naval construction by the United States unnecessary, and that the spirit of the treaty really calls for cessation of building. Although the United States has the right to build additional vessels under the treaty, the pacifist theory is: that this country should furnish an example to the world in. behalf of peace by refraining from -exercising’ this right. This bold stroke, they sug- gest, would convince other nations that the United States dares to “take the risks of peace,” and is ready to take the lead in the march toward universal disarmament. Thereupon other na- ‘tions would follow the example of the United States, greatly to the advance- ment of the cause of world peace. The upshot of this pacifist agitation for scrapping the Navy is likely to be a more determined opposition to the naval treaty in the Senate. If the real controvérsy is to revolve around the preservation of the Navy and not around the technicalities of the treaty there is little doubt that the Senate will scrap the treaty rathef than the Navy. Although there is apparently an ample margin of votes in favor of the treaty, the possibilities of obstruction and defeat-are very numerous. Revela- tions of the so-called “secret papers” may work mischief at any time. Sup- port of the treaty in the Senate is more or less perfunctory, while the opposi- tion is in deadly earnest. Senators who are apprehensive that ratification of the treaty will be followed by an administration move to prevent con- struction of needed vessels would doubtless welcome an assurance that the Navy is not to be crippled as a re- sult of the London agreement. The greatest enemies of the treaty are the pacifists who are intending to use it as an excuse for tearing down the sea defenses of the United Statts. A blast by President Hoover against this pacifist propaganda would clear the air. FEWER IDLE MEN. Secretary Lamont’s estimate of un- employment, based on a statistical study of the census returns that have been filed to date, has provoked a dis- pute. Mr. Lamont says that the number of persons able to work and seeking work is approximately 2,300,000. Will- iam Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, however, says that the jobless, not including office workers or farm laborers, number more than 3,600,000, and Francis Perkins, State industrial commissioner of New York, invokes statistics to show that Mr. Lamont’s estimate should be multi- plied by four. : The discussion as to the extent of unemployment is futile. Admittedly, to establish how extensive it is, but to do something to relieve it. Forces have been set in motion to this end. The public works program is in full swing. Large industries are busily building up inventories and making physical im- provements. Unemployment is less n&w than it was in February, and before long industry will get ander way its fall production program which, there is reason to hope, will take up the em- ployment slack that now exists. Figures as to the extent of unemploy- ment are valuable only in that they show a trénd. When they show in- creases, it is time to take steps to side- track impending trouble. When they show decreases, they are reassuring. Whether the unemployed at present number 2,000,000, 3,500,000 or 6,000,- 000, there is general agreement that the situation has improved in the last six months. The United States is trav- eling the road that leads back to normalcy. END THE STUPIDITY. Congress is in deadlock over the Dis- trict of Columbia appropriation bill. The House insists that the Federal con- tribution -to the District shall not ex- ceed $9,000,000, although the total amount required for the next fiscal year is about $44,000,000. The Senate has fixed $12,000,000 as the amount which the Government should contribute to- ward the maintenance of the National Capital. Neither sum is a fair or equi- table contribution. The Government should pay one-half of the expenses of the seat of Government, and the tax- payers should pay the other half. This equal division of the burden was estab- lished many years ago, after a thorough inquiry in which Congress reorganized the District government, abolished suf- frage, and placed the District where it belongs, under the direct control of the Federal Government. Subsequently more than one-half of the burden was shifted to the local taxpayers, at an in- creasing rate of injustice, until now they are required to finance most of the Government's projects for the develop- ment of the Capital on a national scale, far beyond the needs of the municipality. as such. The réfusal of Congress to deal justly with the people of the District of Co- lumbia is an. astounding revelation of incompetence and injustice. The only redeeming feature of the situation is that the majority of representatives and senators are merely indifferent and neglectful of their duty in the premises. They permit a few legislators to take charge of thes District controversy, and then accept the misrepresentations of these prejudiced parties.rather than go to the trouble of making an investiga- tion tb determine the truth. The gen- erous provisions for new Federal build- ings in the District are proof that Con- gress does not deliberately intend to ruin the seat of government by depriv- ing it of necessary appropriations. It is obviously the intent of Congress to develop this Capital into the most splen- did city in the world; and yet this pro- gram is thwarted and destroyed by fail- ure to contribute a fair share from the Treasury to meet the contributions of the taxpayers. Thus, although con- struction of magnificent buildings goes forward, the District faces the prospect of being deprived of absolutely neces- sary appropriations for current mainte- nance. The Senate holds the whip hand in this controversy, and should not fail to bring the House to terms. An extra session of the Senate will be called if the naval treaty is not disposed of be- fore adjournment of the current session. Since senators are to be held here in any event, they are in a position to re- fuse to adjourn Congress unless the House agrees to a reasonable compro- mise on the District bill. The handful of House legislators who have wormed themselves into the position of dictators on District affairs can be thrust asidé by the Senate, and there should be no further delay in the process. Members of the House who have tolerated the im- pudence of a few colleagues in taking control of the District should take the time to examine the situation and join the Senate in squelching these incom- petents. If the District of Columbia is to go forward according to the plans of Congress there must be an end to stupid obstruction and injustice. ‘THE DORNIER DOX. A resolution introduced by Repre- sentative Royal Johnson would author- ize and direct ‘the Secretary of the Treasury to permit the entry into the there is unemployment. The need is not United States without payment of duty of the giant Dornier Dox, 12-motored flying boat, limiting its stay in the country on a duty-free basis to a period of one year. American business inter- ests hold the rights to manufacture air- planes under the Dox specifications, and they desire to experiment with the German-built boat to ascertain whether or not such craft would be practicable under American commercial and flying conditions. The Dox is valued at $1,000,000. It would be dutiable to the extent of at least $250,000. If the Dox were brought in under bond as a foreign ship, it could not be licensed by the Department of Com- merce. It is desirable that the ship be flown under all sorts of conditions with American pilots, and that its operation be checked by Department of Commerce engineers. To this end the tariff ex- emption, is desirable. The Dox has been flown with 169 passengers. In commercial operation it can carry a usefu! load of 25 tons over a radius of 1,000 miles. As a mili- tary transport it can carry 180 fully equipped soldiers at 140 miles an hour. As a bomber it can carry eighteen 1,100-pound bombs and four 2,200- pound torpedoes, in addition to full de- fensive armament. The Dox is the most advanced type of airboat in existence, so far as size and heavy duty are con- cerned. Congress should act favorably upon the resolution that would permit entry of the vessel into the United States for one year without payment of duty, so that military authorities and commercial interests may have the op- portunity of studying at first hand the possibilities of such craft under Amer- ican conditions of construction and op- eration .for both commercial and mili- tary purposes. A WORLD COURT SCHEME. Admiral Mark Kerr, a retired officer of the British navy, contributes greatly to the enlightenment of Americans in his speech before the Rotary interna- tional convention at Chicago. He favors a proclamation by President Hoover, in the name of the American people, “which would make this Nation the arbiter of the world in regard to peace and war.” He suggests that this “sol- emn declaration” be made in the name of the American people: 1. If any matter shall be in dis- pute between the United States and any other nation, the United States agrees to offer to submit such dispute to arbitration. 2. If any nation shall declare or engage In war without first stating the reasons and offering to submit the matter in dispute to arbitra- tion, we would consider such an act as dangerous to our peace and safety and as a manifestation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States. : 3. That in the event of any na- tion breaking the Kellogg pact or going to war against the decision of the international court, the United States will not supply that country, directly or indirectly, with money, food or stores of any kind whatever. If anything could serve as a warning to Americans against committing the United States to the jurisdiction of the spurious “world court,” this proposal would do it. Instead of making the United States “the arbiter of the world,” Admiral Kerr’s proposal would subject the United States to the dicta- tion of the League of Nations through the league court. The proposal, if ac- cepted, would make the United States automiatically a party to every foreign war hereafter, in any part of the world, while it would deny to the United States the right to decide upon its own course of action in case of a dispute with any foreign nation. A brief analysis by any American citizen will reveal to him that this pro- posal exposes the deadly danger to America of submitting to the rule of the so-called “world court.” VISITORS TO CANADA. American tourists who contemplate a visit to Canada this year would do well to heed the suggestion of Harry E. Hull, commissioner general of immigration, before starting on the tour of the oases. While no passports are required for Americans to cross the border line into Canada, Mr. Hull suggests that the tourist should not fail to provide himself with an identification paper of some character. If the traveler is an alien re- siding in this country he should have with him either an identification card, which may be obtained from thé im- migration office, or his “first papegs.”’ A naturalized citizen would do well to carry his certificate of naturalization. A native-born citizen carrying his birth | AND WHEN WE HAVE. THE NAVAL TREATY \> WE WILL JUNK ALL OUR SHIPS — STOP ALL NEW BUILDING— WE WONT NEED ANY NAVY Natal! Inbad the Sailor, and the Reason. PACIFIST. PROPAGANDA certificate will not encounter any dif- ficulty in entering either Canada or Mexico: ~~ , , Mr. Hull estimates that the crossings into and from Mexico and Canada ap- proximate in number nearly half the total population of the United States, or about 50,000,000. This, of course, includes those who cross daily to and from their work. There is comparative- ly no red tape to entangle those who de- sire to visit contiguous countries, pro- vided they take ordinary precautions to avoid conflict with the immigration authorities in departing or returning. The neglect of precautions to insure identification has frequently led to an- noying delays and in some instances has landed travelers in jail. It is far more important for the foreign-born resident, whether naturalized or alien, to follow the suggestion of Commissioner Hull than for a native to do so. In the case of visits to Canada this is particularly true, as Canada has “tightened up” in the matter of inspections, since the re- peal of the prohibition law of Ontario and the opening up of the government wet goods dispensaries, which are so at- tractive to thousands of residents on this side of the border. FIREMEN’S DAY. Washington’s firemen’s parade and carnival, held each year on Labor Day, is attracting national attention. Seven years ago, when the event originated, only local fire companies participated. Last year, however, volunteer and pro- fessional companies from Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware and other Eastern States marched in the parade with their apparatus and deco- rated floats. They were reviewed by Gov. Ritchie, congressmen, diplomats, Government officials and 200,000 spec- tators. This year invitations to the parade and carnival have been sent out by the local firemen’s committee to fire companies in every Eastern State, and it is indicated that the festival will be bigger and better than ever before. It is fitting that the firemen of the Nation should have a day set aside in their honor. Volunteer and profes- sional fire companies in the United States number in their ranks more than 1,000,000 men. They constitute an army organized to fight a common enemy. They are, in truth, a part of the national defense force. Unlike the military or naval forces, they are con- stantly at war. At every tick of the clock, day or night, from one to three fires are blazing somewhere in the United States, and contingents of the army of firefighters are in action. In 1932 the Nation will celebrate the | 200th anniversary of the birth of which Congress appropriated George Washington, who was himself a member of the Alexandria fire depart- ment. During that year all eyes will turn to the Capital. Firemen’s day of 1932 should be made a truly national event. Fire companies from all sections of the country should participate in the festivities with the most modern equip- ment. The President should address the Nation over the radio on the sub- ject of fire prevention, and he should review the firemen’s parade. The inter- est that is developing in the eighth an- nual parade and celebration that will be held September 1 indicates that it would be entirely feasible for the local firemen’s committee to organize a na- tional firemen’s day for 1982, with the idea that it should become thereafter an annual event. WASHINGTON LIBRARIES. Washington today is the Nation’s granary f@r books. Both the wheat and chaff of Ierature are here, in whole- sale quantities, from the world’s fields of printcraft and authorship. Each day new sheaves flow into this intellectual] granary on the banks of the Potomac, Washington’s facilities for social, in- dustrial, economic, scientific, historical, and educational research are every- where extolled, for here are to be found millions of books, original manuscripts, and maps, the result of years of ac- cumulation by Government and other agencies. Exclusive of the books that have been gleaned from local, national and international sources to form the up- rivaled priyate libraries here, there are over 350 public and semipublic libraries in Washington. In most instances highly specialized, the contents of these libraries are available to all students. They are maintained by the Govern- ment, the District, organized groups (national and international bodies hav- ing headquarters at the seat of gov- ernment), and by individuals. There are at least 350 additional public and semipublic libraries restricted in scope to some one or two specialties of litera- ture. 5 Foremost among these libraries is, of course, the Library of Congress, for this month $6,500,000 to build an annex on the square bounded by Second and Third streets, A and B, southeast. This library contains as many volumes as either of the greatest depositories of Europe—the British Museum and the National Library of France. Although, in the recent words of Dr. Herbert Put- nam, “we have always coupled tha statement with the mortifying remark that as to material of distinction we are painfully lacking,” it is believed by the Librarian of Congress that, now that Congress has voted to~furchase the world-famous Vollbehr collection, con- sisting of 3,000 rare source-material books printed between 1450 and 1500, the Library of Congress is on the way to becoming the world’s greatest li- brary. This process will be hastened by gifts of money to the newly estab- lished Library of Congress Trust Fund, and by donations of rare books and en- tire private libraries. There are other important libraries here, such as the Smithsonian, the Pub- lic Library, the Carnegie Endowment, and many others. The world’s largest collection of medical books, over 500,- 000 in number, is located in Washington in the Army Medical Museum and Li- brary at Seventh and B streets south- west. Branch public libraries have been established in various sections of the city. The libraries of the State and Navy Departments are rich storehouses of American history, while those of other departments are equally valuable. The libraries of George Washington © and Catholic Universities have large and important deposits, while at Georgetown College is to be found the oldest library in Washington and in @ theological sense, the most important. — The $2,000,000 Folger Shakespeare Memorial, now under construction op- posite the Library of Congress, will contain a collection of Shakespeareana which equals and perhaps surpasses that in the British Museum. Mr. Fol- ger, who died last week, not only gave this magnificent structure to the United States, but he created a $10,000,000 * fund to care for and to enlarge his col- lection of more than 25,000 books, pani- phlets, documents, manuscripts, pic. tures, art objects and other items re lating to Shakespeare. The buildi will contain a library, exhibition leries, and a reproduction of an Eliza bethan playhouse, seating 270 persons, The whole will constitute the world’s finest memorial to the Bard of Avon, It will be used to diffuse knowledge in regard to the history and writings of Shakespeare, and will be open to stu» dents under reasonable regulations. ~ pt ¢ A tax on luxuries is proposed in the interest of education in New Jersey, Taxing luxuries, as it were, to provide luxuries. , ae hey : Sanne The White House grounds are to be infested with beetles, w greatly interfere with the free flow » ¥ ‘, - ee L', Set yom add $. “4 1" > :. « 4 + W ba Me af . * . . ,. is - * - a3 ‘ 4, » ¢ P 2 at Tal a, 9 P es, ne “ a ae & Obes > ¥ Om ror he * 2, Ae "1 ~ , Fy Ges a” 1 2

The object of the tree planting is to have a tree in honor of Washington not only in ev- ery city, but in every park and com- munity, civic and national headquar- ters and gathering places throughout the entire Nation. The first national organization to plant a tree in honor of George Wash- ington is the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, which planted an oak a few weeks ago during the biennial convention of the Civic Center Park in Denver, Colo. It is quite fitting that the General Federation should be the first to take this preliminary step for the great bicentennial] celebration, as Mrs. John D. Sherman, honorary president of the General Federation, is the woman member of the board of eight com- missioners appointed by the Presi- dent of the United States to officiate in the celebration in 1932. Mrs. Sherman has spent many years in the interest of forestry conserva- tion and memorial tree planting, which she started many years ago in the federation. Mrs. Sherman orig- inated the idea of memorial tree lanting on memorial highways, which as spread throughout other organi- vations. Left to right—Mrs. Elwood J.

Leading organists of read with a great deal of interest your editorial in Wednesday morning's Post, in which was advocated an audi- torium for the District of Columbia with a seating capacity of at least 15,000, believing, as you say, that such a building would be a profitable in- vestment to individual citizens. From a personal experience in con- junction with that of 800 leading business men of Washington, I state with business accuracy that un- der existing conditions an auditorium as outlined in your editorial and ad- Wocated by Mr. Bloom has a most aoubtful opportunity for financial success. The Washington Auditori- um, seating 6,250, has not had that loyal backing and support by the titizens of the District of Columbia that it should have had and which the loyal financially sacrificing spon- gors had a right to expect. Its seat- mg capacity is larger than the re- quirements of the majority of gather- ings in Washington. It became neces- sary to erect division curtains on the main floor and in the gallery because there is more space, as stated, than is needed for many of the gatherings.

It should be supported and no movement should be created whereby competition will be the re- sult and the destruction of both in- evitable. What should be done, however, is for the District government to buy the western portion of the block not occupied by the auditorium building | and erect upon it an addition to the present auditorium, then take over the entire proposition for the District National Guard. Gen. Stephan and hig military associates have had plans drawn for certain alterations in the present building which, in his lan- guage “will meet all requirements at | an exceedingly vestment.” To bulld an auditorium of 15,000 small financial in- taxpayers to build at their expense a seating capacity does not require, in show place to attract crowds for the my judgment, the drafting upon one’s | purpose of assisting in the business profits of the entire community. The such subjects records show that no auditorium un- | less persistently backed and support- | ed by the entire community, or owned | by the municipality, has ever or can succeed as a paying proposition or | investment. And, Mr. Editor, I am | forced to disagree with you that “it | is not within the province of the Fed- eral Government to provide the need- ed auditorium.” I must also disagree with you again, based upon experi- ence, that an auditorium in Wash- ington will pay. You state that the civic bodies should do thus and so. | The civic bodies of Washington have done their part through persistent publicity and the individual contri- | bution of their members and also by taking from their treasury funds col- | lected from dues.

Johnson, of South Da- | kota, in introducing a bill to “give | Jack a chance” to achieve higher rank | than that of an ensign in the Navy, |The Post recently directed attention to the fact that while an enlistment in either the Army or the Marine Corps opened the way to the highest 'rank, no such opportunity is open for the boy who goes into the Navy by the way of the recruiting station. | In a letter to the Editor of The | that | Post Secretary Adams asserts “Jack has many chances,” and that there are in the Navy today officers of | The monthly meetings of the Fourth | in the spring. | command rank who are not graduates of the Naval Academy, but who came ‘up from the ranks. Representative Johnson was asked | by the writer, why, in view of Secre- tary Adams’ letter, there was any necessity for enactment of his ‘bill. Mr. Johnson replied: “The Secretary's letter raises the question of what is a fair chance for | line | promotion from the ranks to commissioned grade. The facts speak ‘for themselves. “The 100 enlisted appointees from the ranks to the Naval Academy must be, like appointees from civil life, un- der 20 years of age. A man to enlist must be 18 years of age. Because of this age limit this law does not give the regular enlisted man a chance. It benefits principally those who, like naval officers’ sons, enlist and serve for a year for the special purpose of getting an appointment to Annapolis. “The twelve men who can actually be promoted from the ranks must have actually a total of some four- teen years’ service before they can take the examination for ensign; a man who enlists at the minimum of 18 will be 32 years old before he can be commissioned as ensign on a parity with the Annapolis graduate of av- erage age of 21 years; in addition, the enlisted man gets such promotion to ‘ensign only by sacrificing his four- teen years’ service for pay purpose. If he enlists at the average age of 21 he can never be commissioned. This quota, small as it is, is never filled. The law, now about 30 years old, has resulted in the promotion of about | whereas the full | 75 enlisted men, quota would be 360, “The chance for promotion from the ranks can be better measured by actual results: from the ranks; of the 243 captains, 1: of the 409 commanders, 1; of the 759 lieutenant commanders, the ranks; grades (lieutenants and ensigns), out- side of a small group legislated into | are only | office after the war, there the few who come in by the dozen & year route; into office after the war, legislation is now pending the effect of which will be to cause them to revert to their warrant grade. “In the Army, graduates of West Point constitute less than 34 per cent of the line; the remaining 66 per cent | ' came from the ranks and civil life; | per cent | in the Navy, less than 1% are promoted from the ranks. “In the Army there are 2 of the 21 major generals from the ranks and 8 of the 46 brigadier generals.

Miss Nora Huffman, first vice president of the club presided in the absence of the president, Mrs. Mary Lewis, who is touring Europe. An interesting program was offered.

Onions, caulifiower, green peppers, ‘tomatoes and beans, as well as cu- 'cumbers, are used for making mixed pickles. All vegetables should be cured in brine. For making mixed pickles, very small vegetables are much to be pre- ferred. If larger ones must be used, frst cut them into pieces of a desir- lable and uniform shape and size. Place in the bottom of each wide- mouth bottle or jar a, little mixed spice. In filling the bottle arrange the various kinds of pickles in as neat and orderly manner as possible. The appearance of the finished prod- uct depends largely upon the man- ner in which they afe packed in the bottle. Do not completely fill the bottles. If sour pickles are desired, fill the bottles completely with a 45 grain vinegar. If sweet ones are wanted, fill with a liquid made by dissolving four to six pounds of sugar in a gallon of vinegar.

Bridal Festivities Enliven Otherwise Dull Week in City Miss Alice Huston Married Yes- terday to Mr. Fulton Lewis, jr. Landa—Mondell Wedding An- other Important Event of Week. Transatlantic Fliers Awaited. HE who chooses sum- By JEAN ELIOT. T mertime for her wedding, is faced with bride of today, a new problem. She is put to it to know how to keep her bridesmaids from getting sunburned. The rich coat of tan, which the modern maiden considers part of her mid- summer equipment, sets off sports frocks to perfection, but somehow it doesn’t enter ar- tistically into the picture of flounced or- gandies, floppy hats and armfuls of flowers, which are the mode for the weddings of the moment. And Miss Marjorie Mondell, now Mrs. Alfons Beaumont Landa, confessed that she had almost to lock up her attendants to keep them from accepting too many invita- tions to play golf or swim on the eve of her wedding. How Miss Mondell or Miss Alice Huston, married yesterday to Mr. Fulton Lewis, jr., ever lived through the round of festivities preceding their weddings is a mystery. Not only was each bride entertained continuously and enthusiastically, but each, with her at- tendants, was included in many of the par- ties given for the other, the two being close friends and playing round with much the same crowd of young people. Batertaining for these two, for Miss Kath- erine Sutherland, who is to be married to- morrow to Mr. Paul Mayo, of Denver, and for half a-dozen other charming brides gave color and interest to a week, which would otherwise have been pretty dull. But one has sympathy for the mother of one pretty bride, who complained bitterly about all these. prenuptial festivities . because her daughter had lost ten pounds and had been obliged to have her wedding dress made over. . +e. 3 * OMETHING is always happening to give S a fillip of interest to life in Washing- ton. With Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn Byrd but recently sped on his-way to gather fresh laurels in New York, Boston and other cities, the Capital is now looking forward to a visit from Capt. Charles Kingsford- Smith, intrepid pilot of the Southern Cross, and the crew of three who spanned the ocean with him. Coming to the Capital to be re- ceived by President Hoover tomorrow, the fliers are to be guests of the British Am- bassador and Lady Lindsay—probably the first guests to be entertained at the new em- bassy in Massachusetts avenue. 7 ” > - 9 hairs greeted Maj. Kingsford- Smith and his compan Hoover will entertain at lunch the White House tomorrow. Capt. Kingsford-Smith is anxious to hop off for Oakland, Calif., to complete the circuit of the globe begun two years ago with his flight from Oakland to Australia—in the same Southern Cross, which he is now flying, but which he has put up for sale,. being “frightfully hard up’ and needing the money so that he can be married. At the same time that is was announced from New York that the for sale sign had been put on the great monoplane, “flown 75,000 miles but still able to laugh at an ocean,” dispatches from Canberra, the Australian capital, brought word that the government had been asked in the senate to purchase. the Southern Cross as a memorial to Australia’s pioneer airmen.

And sketched on this page are some close-ups of the latest French shows from which many a useful tip may be culled. The Coat-Dress. Paris is alreay contemplating what it should have in store when the first autumn day with its crisp breezes ar- rives, and as the solution to this problem she offers the coat-dress of a lightweight wool. One of these, from the designing room of Lucile Paray, appears at the left in the picture above, and very alluring it is, with ita trimly belted waist and negli- gently cut collar and cuffsof breitsch-. wantz fur. Black is highly spoken of for early fall, and this coat-dress is in black in a material similar to a wool crepe, but a bit heavier. Incidentally, its ever so slightly flared wrap-around skirt is a cut worth bearing in mind, for it is @ favorite with several cou- across the back in a downward slant- ing line that is very flattering. At the right below on this page is another coat, of the belted type.

Also, take note of the fact that the buttons stop but a short distance from the bottom of the coat, thus | preserving its slimly straight outline. This outline, by the way, is that sought for by all the couturiters. Plares or pleats may be introduced, but they are done in such a way as to preserve an almost straight sil- houette, and this is true of both belted and wrap-around styles. A Vionnet Afternoon Frock. Demonstrating once more that chic and formality do not necessitate elaborate fussiness is the afternoon The Topcoat. At the right of the miss wearing the coat-dress is one proudly display- ing a brand-new fall topcoat from Agnes, known to all the world for her | inimitable hat creations. This, too, | is in black, the material being broad- | cloth, which bids fair to equal again | its fashionable popularity of last win- ter. It is richly trimmed with astra- khan in deep cuffs and a round shawl collar that stands at back and con- tinues down the front into a widen- ing band. The fur and the two dis- creetly flared tiers are continued dress from Vionnet which is shown /29%o0 below. Black satin falls in sleek folds and the cowl neck, beloved by this in deep pink and continues into scarf ends at back. To top this feminine gown is the LeMonnier hat illustrated in the group in the center of the page. The lovely flare of the brim and the twisted band of this hat make it an ideal companion to an aftrenoon oc- casion. The flower of felt could carry the color scheme of the costume to the lapel of the coat worn over the dress.

) | ’ a me ———— a Florence, Italy’: 8 City of Flowers, Lives Up To Its Reputation as Fortunate Valley Rich Stores of Sculpture and Paintings Stored in Its Palaces. Horses, Still to Be Met ‘There, Fed With Great : Lavishness. By HELEN PEARCE. Ever since I can remember, some one or other has been positive in seying that Florence is the most beautiful city in the world. No doubt those early superhuman artists, who gave so much of their lives to it, before they were drawn away to im- perial Rome, thought so too, Their contributions to it must be, in cer- tain instances, more beautiful than when they were first given; and its early austerities and relentlessness are forgotten, where everything is so Safe, so softly molded by time, and ~—in most instances—so faithfully preserved. “The city of. flowers,” a guidebook will tell you, though in capitals, “lies in a fertile valley, surrounded by the spurs of the Apennines; the river Arno divides it into two unequal parts and is spanned by six bridges.” Any- one with a good imagination and a congenial love for Italy can build from that an enchanting picture, apt perhaps to be a little too poetic for comfortable living. Por on first sight Florence is unin- timidating, and strangely familiar. A skeptical person may find the Arno surprisingly shallow and muddy, with reeds in its very center growing out of a few feet of water: that the Pitti Palace of the Medicis looks somewhat like a very fine arsenal: and as to the smaller palaces, they have somehow gotten themselves wedged in between larger masses of stone, and have every quality save that of being imposing. Until at sunset the Arno takes all the melting colors from the sky, and holds them remarkably fused between its two banks; while on its outlying cypress-darkened hills a tower or a — stands out clearly in the rich g And just then its individual haunt- ing displaces the familiarity; in its sounds—until one gets used to them, so disturbing—of moving processions of horses, generously belled, of num- berless bicycles and Campanile bells, jangling, harshly sweet, one note seeming to ring against the other. For, | contrary to imagination, there is more than the one Campanile, pink and white and moss-green, built by Giotto, once the shepherd boy—there are many, in the valley and on the sur- rounding hills. Quietly, subtly, unpersuasively, Florence lives up to all the preposter- ous things that are said about it. Perhaps because it is so small—so easily encompassed by the eye from any height. It is one thing to search faithfully, in spite of the diversities of art, and from all sources to piece together the authentic fragments of an age. It is another to stand on a height and look down over the full loveliness of the land, knowing that the rich stores of sculpture and painting are housed in this compact city, so uni- ® The Florentine cab horses are compliant and easily managed.

When they are not in motion they are sure to be covered up to the eyes with a feed bag. form, so gracious, presided over singly by its great cathedral. Cities, once lived in, lost their rev- erent, untouchable quality, just as houses that at first—at the polish of floors, the efmbroidered curtains and linen—seem a little too fine for ordi- nary existence, but soon enough be- come practical and even inconvenient realities. II Duomo, its red white-arched dome, with round windows below, and the thin, tall shaft of the neighboring Campanile, that are the astonished regard of every traveler as he looks up at them for the first time, are passed how many times, and in what spirit, in the course of a day’s shop- ping? Moreover, they become, by those subconscious processes of ass0- ciation that are no longer reasoned out, objects of anxiety or belief, for the fact that the tramway service en- circles them and makes its final stop there; and if one has missed one’s last car for the 3-mile walk up hill, even Giotto would be no consolation. Back in 1875 Ruskin laments, in bitter language, of the three buildings | | in the square, haunted by the ghosts of Sacred Art, “which spot of ground the modern Florentine has made his principal hackney-coach stand and omnibus station.” True, even then; so the world moves comparatively quickly, after all, whichever way you happen to look at it. A word about the Florentine horses: they eat more, I am sure, than any other horses in the world. They are compliant horses, and easily managed, and a pleasanter method of transpor- tation than taxicabs, from one part of the city to another; but when they are not in motion, stopping by Mich- aelangelo’s David or any one of the six bridges, they are sure to be cov- ered up to the eyes with a feed-bag. AUCTION — CONTRACT BRIDGE By MILTON C. WORK The International Authority I am giving today a hand which lllustrates better than almost any other I ever saw, the benefits which may be derived from 4 cross-ruff. It was played in a Contract Bridge Tournament held at the Philmont Country Club, of Philadelphia, last month, and the cards were distrib- uted as follows: 4K-§-5-3 W A-K-9-5 @ 9-§-5-3-2 At practically all of the 23 tables South opened with a bid of one Spade, West bid two Diamonds, and North four Spades. None of the Souths felt justified in going further to suggest a slam, and in this they were both conservative and wise. The hand, however, produced a slam for the half dozen Declarers who played it properly, despite the fact that bid- ding for the slam would have been unsound. At all tables West started by lead- ing the King of Diamonds which drew South’s Ace. After that some De- clarers took two rounds of trumps before starting a ruff; and some deemed it sound play to finesse the trump Jack on the second round— although they had nine trumps. This, as it happened, permitted the ad- verse Queen to take a trick. At the table where the Declarer perceived and availed himself of the unusual cross-ruffing possibilities that his hand afforded the play was as follows: Tricks 2 to 6, inclusive, consisted of three Club leads Dy South and two Diamond leads by North, all Of whieh were ruffed by the opposite hand. On trick 5 East played the trump Ten as he had no advantageous discard and thought that the trump honor it would force from closed hand might help West to make a trump. South, of course, played the Jack on this trick (Sages) ruff not affecting the result). After ruffing trick 6, North led the | Ace and King of Hearts before his fourth Diamond, thinking it safer not to risk a Heart discard by One of the adversaries. Then came North's fourth Diamond, a Club discard by East and a ruff by South. Then South led his fourth Club, dummy ruffing with the King of trumps. This was followed by North’s fitth Diamond, which enabled South to work in a fourth ruff At trick 12 Declarer was left with the trump Ace and West with. the guarded Queen; the former won trick 12 and the thirteenth trick was sur- rendered. It will be noted that the cross-ruff yielded a remarkable total of nine trump tricks and enabled the De- clarer to make a small slam. OUR WEEKLY TOPIC. One bidding situation that often arises in Auction and Contract some- times confuses. It occurs wh the ‘original bidder names a different declaration On the second round and then his partner goes back to the original declaration. For example: South (Dealer) bids one Spade and after two passes, East bids two Clubs; t ‘ = South then bids two Hearts, West three Clubs and North three Spades, which obtains the contract. Under these conditions there sometimes is a contention that North is the De- clarer and should play the hand; it being argued that South had “aban- doned” his Spade declaration by shifting from Spades to Hearts and should be the dummy. The law on this point is explicit; it provides: “The player who first, for his side, named the suit or No Trungp of the contract,-becomes the Declarer.” It does not matter in the least what bids or how many may have inter- vened, nor whether the player who named the declaration first or his Partner makes the final bid. It happens occasionally that one side will “steal” the contract from the other: e. g., South one No Trump, Wess two No Trumps; or South one No Trump, West double, North pass, East two No Trumps. In such cases West and East, respectively, who bid two, would become the Declarer, al- though South was the first to name the No Trump declaration—first, Dut not first for his side.

Naturalized Chinese citizens of other countries who return to their native land will hereafter be regarded by the national government as Chi- nese unless they express in writing « preference for their adopted country. This ruling was adopted as the best means of doing away with the count- less cases in which Chinese attempt | to escape jurisdiction of their native | courts by claiming other citizenship. The ruling seriously affects a large number of returned Ghinese students and professional men who received | their education in Europe or United States and became citizens of the country in which they were schooled.

So states a bill signed by 67 deputies from the rural dis- tricts and deciaring war upon the spud-devouring insects. The bill comprises 27 articles, each of them describing som scientific and effective method of destroying | the pests. Agricultural engineers and chemists are of the opinion that the doryphora will find those 27 articles tougher to chew than the | potato. “Brought to France in the supplies of the American Army, the bill states as an acknowledged, indispu- table fact, “the doryphora was first signeled in the Gironde department within proximity of the American war camps.” hg 3 TRAVEL TRAVEL SPECIAL TRAIN at $300.15 and up.

Horses, Still to Be Met ‘There, Fed With Great : Lavishness. By HELEN PEARCE. Ever since I can remember, some one or other has been positive in stying that Florence is the most beautiful city in the world. No doubt those early superhuman artists, Who gave so much of their lives to it, before they were drawn away to im- perial Rome, thought so too, Their contributions to it must be, in cer- tain instances, more beautiful than when they were first given; and its early austerities and relentiessness are forgotten, where everything is so safe, so softly molded by time, and ~—Iin most instances—so faithfully preserved. “The city of. flowers,” a guidebook will tell you, though in capitals, “lies in a fertile valley, surrounded by the spurs of the Apennines; the river Arno divides it into two unequal parts and is spanned by six bridges.” Any- one with a good imagination and a congenial love for Italy can build from that an enchanting picture, apt perhaps to be a little too poetic for comfortable living. For on first sight Florence is unin- timidating, and strangely familiar. A skeptical person may find the Arno surprisingly shallow and muddy, with reeds in its very center growing out of a few feet of water: that the Pitti Palace of the Medicis looks somewhat like a very fine arsenal: and as to the smaller palaces, they have somehow gotten themselves wedged in between larger masses of stone, and have every quality save that of being imposing. Until at sunset the Arno takes all the melting colors from the sky, and holds them remarkably fused between its two banks; while on its outlying cypress-darkened hills a tower or a facade stands out clearly in the rich light. And just then its individual haunt- ing displaces the familiarity; in its sounds—until one gets used to them, so disturbing—of moving processions of horses, generously belled, of num- berless bicycles and Campanile bells, jangling, harshly sweet, one note seeming to ring against the other. For, contrary to imagination, there is more than the one Campanile, pink and white and moss-green, built by Giotto, once the shepherd boy—there are many, in the valley and on the sur- rounding hills. Quietly, subtly, unpersuasively, Florence lives up to all the preposter- ous things that are said about it. Perhaps because it is so small—so easily encompassed by the eye from any height. It is one thing to search faithfully, in spite of the diversities of art, and from all sources to piece together the authentic fragments of an age. It is another to stand on a height and look down over the full loveliness of the land, knowing that the rich stores of sculpture and painting are housed in this compact city, so uni- ® —— Mey Ae Set Petes > a > Oy : ie , te ao ++ a WR eget ee ote rs we ‘ee rf Ap “2 The Florentine cab horses are compliant and easily managed. When they are not in motion they are sure to be covered up to the eyes with a feed bag. form, 80 gracious, presided over singly by its great cathedral. Cities, once lived in, lost their rev- erent, untouchable quality, just as houses that at first—at the polish of floors, the efmbroidered curtains and lineh—seem a little too fine for ordi- nary existence, but soon enough be- come practical and even inconvenient realities. II Duomo, its red white-arched dome, with round windows below, and the thin, tall shaft of the neighborin Campanile, that are the astonish regard of every traveler as he looks up at them for the first time, are passed how many times, and in what spirit, in the course of a day’s shop- ping? Moreover, they become, by those subconscious processes of asso- ciation that are no longer reasoned out, objects of anxiety or belief, for the fact that the tramway service en- circles them and makes its final stop there; and if one has missed one’s | last car for the 3-mile walk up hill, even Giotto would be no consolation. Back in 1875 Ruskin laments, in bitter language, of the three buildings in the square, haunted by the ghosts of Sacred Art, “which spot of ground the modern Florentine has made his principal hackney-coach stand and omnibus station.” True, even then; so the world moves comparatively quickly, after all, whichever way you happen to look at it. A word about the Florentine horses: they eat more, I am sure, than any other horses in the world. They are compliant horses, and easily managed, and a pleasanter method of transpor- tation than taxicabs, from one part of the city to another; but when they are not in motion, stopping by Mich- aelangelo’s David or any one of the six bridges, they are sure to be cov- ered up to the eyes with a feed-bag. AUCTION 7 BRIDGE By MILTON C. WORK The International Authority CONTRACT I am giving today a hand which illustrates better than almost any other I ever saw, the benefits which may be derived from a cross-ruff. It was played in a Contract Bridge Tournament held at the Philmont Country Club, of Philadelphia, last month, and the cards were distrib- uted as follows: 4K-8-5-3 ¥ A-K-9-5 9-§-5-3-2 & None ne 60-4 4-3 #K-0-10-6-4 ‘ Dealer $A-J-3-2 sou 4 f-J-9-1-2 v 3-7-6 : rt 0-2 #K-10-9) (-8-7 $32 oA 4065-4 At practically all of the 23 tables South opened with a bid of one Spade, West bid two Diamonds, and North four Spades. None of the Souths felt justified in going further to suggest a slam, and in this they were both conservative and wise. The hand, however, produced a slam for the half dozen Declarers who played it properly, despite the fact that bid- | ding for the slam would have been | unsound, At all tables West started by lead- ing the King of Diamonds which drew South’s Ace. After that some De- clarers took two rounds of trumps before starting a ruff; and some deemed it sound play to finesse the trump Jack on the second round— although they had nine trumps. This, as it happened, permitted the ad- verse Queen to take a trick. At the table where the Declarer perceived and availed’ himself of the unusual cross-ruffing possibilities that his hand afforded the play was as follows: Tricks 2 to 6, inclusive, consisted of three Club leads by South and two Diamond leads by North, all Of whieh were ruffed by the opposite hand. On trick 5 East played the trump Ten as he had no advantageous discard and thought that the trump honor it would force | from closed hand might help West to make a trump. South, of course, | played the Jack on this trick (East's ruff not affecting the result). After ruffing trick 6, North led the Ace and King of Hearts before his fourth Diamond, thinking it safer not to risk a Heart discard by one of the adversaries. Then came North's fourth Diamond, a Club discard by East and a ruff by South. Then South led his fourth Club, dummy ruffing with the King of trumps. This was followed by North’s fitth Diamond, which enabled South to work in a fourth ruff At trick 12 Declarer was left with the trump Ace and West with. the guarded Queen; the former won trick 12 and the thirteenth trick was sur- rendered. It will be noted that the cross-ruff yielded a remarkable total of nine trump tricks and enabled the De- clarer to make a small slam. OUR WEEKLY TOPIC. One bidding situation that often times confuses. It occurs wh the original bidder names a different declaration On the second round and then his partmer goes back to the original declaration. For example: South (Dealer) bids one Spade and after two passes, East bids two Clubs; South then bids two Hearts, West three Clubs and North three Spades, which obtains the contract. Under these conditions there sometimes is a contention that North is the De- clarer and should play the hand; it being argued that South had “aban- doned® his Spade declaration by shifting from Spades to Hearts and should be the dummy. The law on this point is explicit; it provides: “The player who first, for his side, named the sult or No Trump of the contract, becomes the Declarer.” It does not matter in the least what bids or how many may have inter- vened, nor whether the player who hamed the declaration first or his Partner makes the final bid. It happens occasionally that one side will “steal” the contract from the other: e. g.., South one No Trump, Wess two No Trumps; or South one No Trump, West double, North pass, East two No Trumps. In such cases West and East, respectively, who bid two, would become the Declarer, al- though South was the first to name the No Trump declaration—first, Sut not first for his side.

The ‘fashion experts may tell us to wear them longer but we just do it or not do it in the National Capital. We are told also that prints have been listed for the discard, but we wear them gayly and brightly in Washington and we notice that the |fashion leaders from other cities are also wearing them. Por the woman who does not like to appear on the street, no matter how warm the day may be without any sleeves, the capes that come to a point just above.the elbows are ‘most welcome. Many of the best dressed women in Washington wear this type of dress. Then there is the sleeve just above the elbow and the sleeve that comes to the elbow and is lengthened with a ruffle or flounce to match the one (on the skirt and the smart long isleeves to choose from. Many of the sleeveless dresses have \coate without sleeves, while others | have elbow or long sleeves. Since one of the objects of the woman who is | Femasning in Washington during the |warm weather or for part of the | summer is to look cool as well as smart the coats to be worn with dresses are not as popular for street wear as they have been, except, of course, in case of the sleeveless dress which seems to make such an addi- tional garment worn in the city an absolute necessity. Street dresses of wash materials are having more of a vogue than they have had for many years, perhaps even the old-fashioned laundress is about to have her day once more. | POPULAR EXCURSION JULY 4th SH ENAN DOAH | CAVERNS, VA.

STONE WALLS NOW ‘CITY REAL ESTATE Beautiful Treatment Shown! Board of Trade Completes UAVEY ARRANGED Comprehensive Plans for Washington. RUSTIC FINISH FOR DRIVE | There are infinite possibilities in | stone walls, as decorative or finish- ing touches for residence sites, and there are as many problems in select- | ing just the right type of enepieeh tion and treatment as there are pos- | sibilities in beauty and utility. A} good example of the importance of | proper height and position, type of masonry construction, and other im- portant features is the low stone) wall which separates the Granada Terrace section of Lyon Village from | the steep bank which borders tne broad Lee highway. The Granada Terrace section of Lyon Village is developed entirely in the Spanish style of architecture. It is situated in a deep curve of the Lee | highway, perhaps Washington's most | |important and most traveled route | j}into the heart of Virginia. The high- | way separates it from the other sec- 'tions of Lyon Village. | Im order to provide a most con- | venient circular drive for the WUrua- |mada Terrace homes, so that zach | residence ‘would have its own drive- /way opening upon the private drive, | |'Lyon & Fitch, Inc., the owners and pee gry of Lyon Village, deter- mined to construct the private road | simost parallel to the Lee highway '& distance of several hundred yarais, | /but many feet above the highway The developers were also anxious to | \give the Granada Terrace section a | partial privacy, without shutting out entirely the beautiful views of the broad highway and the natural park on the other side of it. The low stone wall of riftic finish |was the happy result of this plan ‘and the solution of the problem of ‘how to treat the private drive to cut \it off from the parallel Lee highway | without destroying the beauty of the. |highway, as seen from the Granada) Terrace homes, or shutting out en-| _tirely the charming view of the homes | as seen from the highway. The stone | , wall borders the private drive, which | |encircles the Granada Terrace section, | yet it effectively breaks the terrain | and separates the highway bank from | the private residence area behind it. | The average height of the wall is) | between 3 and 4 feet. It is construct- ed of ordinary field stone in rustic | bond on the highway side, affording | | i a most interesting and appropriate | |connecting link between the private) | grounds in back of it and the public) Eighteenth street northwest. highway which it fronts. | the | | assembled will be taken from records | tered in different places, and part will | Cancy survey will be determined from the Operative Builders Association | sowed declines of from 1 to 15 per | |cent from the average May volume of gether with the number vacant. |new building.

Thies work will be under the direction of Rufus 8S. Lusk. who ts making the master communit survey of Washington for the board. Some of the facts that are to be that are now available, but are scat- | be complied by making original sur- | _ veys on the ground. Among the data to be gathered is | the area of the industrial zone dis- | tricts of the city, both occupied and | unoccupied; number of occupied and vacant stores. The actual miles of first commercial zoned property will | be complied from the zoning maps | and the amount of this frontage in | use will be measured on the first commercial streets. This can be done by an actual measurement of the frontage of every store in the city. | At the same time that the amount of commercial property in use is being surveyed, data will be taken showing the number, kind and location of all | stores. Later tn July a survey of office building space, both occupied and unoccupied will be made. There has never been a vacancy survey made of office buildings in Washington, and real estate men have often expressed the need for such a survey | The number of rooms and the vari- ous prices charged in hotels will also | be ascertained.

Comrade Burden, a former mem- ber of the post, was reinstated on transfer from Honolulu Poss, No. 1540, with which post he affiliated during a service tour of duty, and several petitions for membership were received and one recruit was obligated.

It is with the keenest regrets of all comrades that the post must accept the tendered resignation of Post Adjutant Abe Grudd, whose ill- health precludes his longer continu- ance of the duties of post adjutant. Comrade Grudd has proved himself ever-faithful, and an incomparably efficient and loyal worker in the vet- eran ranks.

S0,S30-SHARE DY SUIMARKS LOW RECORD 2-Year Half-Day Minimum Turnover Occurs as Few Rails Drop. YS. STEEL UP SLIGHTLY New York, June 28 (A.P.).—Inter- * @at in the stock market was at such & low ebb today that sales reached the Smallest total for a 32-hour session in nearly two years—only 586,500 shares. With many traders out of town for the week-end, there was little to in- Tiuence the course of prices one way or the other. Selling of motor acces- sory shares, apparently based on a Feport of decreased operations in these lines, and of a few rails brought Out moderate declines, but the ap- eatery of a demand for General ectric in the late dealings prompted @ covering movement and the close was irregular, U. 8. Steel, American Can, Radio, American Telephone and General Motors showed fractional ad- vances. Bearish activities of the first huur and a half were on a turnover that seemed destined to establish a new low Saturday volume for the past four years. Sales to 11:30 o'clock to- taled only 350,000 shares, so that the covering movement of the last 30 a rr minutes accounted for a large pro- portion of the day’s business. The strength in General Electric, which closed 1% higher, spread to Westinghouse, Bethlehem Steel, Vana- dium, American Tobacco “B,” National Biscuit, and Electric Power & Light, up 1 to nearly 3 points. Timken Roller Bearing and Electric Auto Lite broke to new lows, the latter regain- img part of its decline. Southern Railway was again in supply and was ‘pushed to another new minimum of 89%. closing at 89% for a 2'4-point loss St. Louis, San Francisco, Erie & Rock Island were also heavy. North American, after dropping more than 2 points, recovered. Most of the railroad earnings state- ments coming to hand today showed large declines in May net operating income. The Youngstown steel dis- trict reported that Republic Steel would be able to maintain operations mext week at 65 per cent of capacity because of an increase in pipe orders, but Sheet & Tube is reducing to 60 per cent of rated capacity from 65 and Empire Steel will be idle. Other- wise, there was no news of financial . importance. Wheat and corn averaged about a @ent lower, but cotton made small net advances. Foreign exchange rates were irregular. Sterling cables ad- vanced, but the Spanish peseta con- tinued its slump. : LIVE STOCK MARKETS. Chicago.

(d) (f) Patd (2 Unit of trading ® Wall Street Briefs New York, June 28 (A.P.).—Large line pipe orders will keep the Youngs- town plant of Republic Steel operating at 65 per cent of capacity next week, the same figure as this week, advices from Yougstown state. Operations of Youngstown Sheet and Tube will be cut 5 per cent to 60, and the three plants of Empire Steel will be closed, two of them having been shut down this week. Carnegie Steel operations in the district will continue uncha at 58 per cent and the Mahoning Valley Steel Co. will operate its eight sheet mills unchanged. The average price of crude petro- leum in producing fields was un- changed from the previous week at $1.497 a barrel, compared with an average of $1.767 a barrel for the cor- responding period last year, Oil, Paint and Drug reporter says. Gasoline at refineries was fractionally lower at 7.18 cents a gallon, compared with 7.21 cents the previous week. W. E. McGregor, of Boston, a vice president of Harris, Forbes & Co., and a director of Harris, Forbes Trust Co., of Boston, and the National Shawmut Bank of Boston, has been elected a di- rector and member of the finance committee of the Associated Gas & Electric Co. The Motor & Equipment Associa- tion reports that manufacturing op- erations in the automotive parts-ac- cessory industry declined in May and that seasonal curtailment has con- tinued in June in line with the re- cessioh in motor plants. Registrations of*new Chrysler cars in the first 39 States reporting for May were 97 per cent of the peak volume of May last .year, 14 States showing a gain of about 16 per cent over May, 1929, the Chrysler Sales Corporation reports. Relaying rail prices are off $1 a ton and now are at 8™ to $29 for 60 to 90 pound material. Light rails are off 82 a ton to $34. Continental Motors Corporation re- ports for the six months ended April 30 a net loss of $884,288, after ex- penses, depreeiation and development expenses of Continental Aircraft Co., and before special charges amounting to $4,583,939 for surplus account, compared with net profit of $582,- 418, or 27 cents a share, in the like period of the preceding fiscal year. Cotton goods were somewhat steadier today although very quiet. The week's business in gray cloths ran closer to production than for at any time for two or three weeks past. Burlaps advanced a little following the advances of Friday. Local trad- ing was negligible. Raw silk declined 15 cents a pound to new lows. Silk goods for fall are selling slowly. Trade in wool goods is quiet. Lines of tropicals for 1931 will be shown next month. The general slowing down of busi- ness usual during the summer com- bined with a continuance of unset- tled conditions in the stock market, has been reflected by some easing in prices in the steel market during the past week, while there has also been some further curtailment of produc- tion. The wing requirements of structural matérial and the heavy pipe line bookings remain an en- couraging feature in the situation, however, and in some quarters it is felt that a revival of demand may fol- low the midsummer inventory sea- son. Pig iron was unchanged, with no improvement in the volume of business. A fair day to day »usiness for export continued in copper. but domestic fabricators, who are said to be covered well ahead, remained gen- erally out of the market. An inquiry for 600 tons of wire was reported to be the only sizable domestic busi- ness Outstanding. After recent fluc- tuations, the market has held steady at 12 cents for electrolytic delivered in the Connecticut Valley. Previous offerings custom smelters at concessions were absorbed and there was no pressure from that source. Tin prices reacted from early week steadiness owing to the setback in London and reports that some ducers were not in sympathy with proposals to curtail operations. NEW YORK COTTON. New York, June 28 (A.P.).—Cotton was quiet here today, but showed a generally steady undertone on week-end covering. which seemed to be promoted by prospects for continued hot weather in the South and relatively steady Liverpool cables. tobe .06 and closed at 13. 02, with the general market closing steady at net advances of 6 9 inte.

This was attributed largely to covering. but there may have been some local buying late in the morning on the prospees for continued high temperatures in the Western belt. tract advanced mber to more active months showing net advances of about 6 to 12 points at the best.

TAXES UPON BONDS: Refunds of District Levy on Securities Permitted by Some Companies. DIVIDEND IS ANNOUNCED By THOMAS M CAHILI: An interesting survey of bonds has 6 | sult been completed by Lewis N. Dem- bitz, a studeht of economics at % | George Washington University, with relation to the tax of one-half af one District of Columbia, effective July 1. Mr. Dembits explains first that cer- tain classes of stocks and bonds are exempt from this tax, these inelud- ing stocks of banks, companies whose *| principal place of business is in District and bonds of the States Government, States, ties and municipalities. He then reminds W ine vestors of the fact that there afe cere tain bonds which refund this tag and that the issue com order to make these securities attractive to itivestors here have agreed to refund the District tex te holders of these bonds on applica- tion. In referring to these, Mr. Dembita, in his review, states that while the number of such com is small the ited their securities range from the high- 4 est grade issues, legal for e: ~ banks — —_— down to con lowest, and that ter tax on any of these bonds, the bolder must communicate with the ise company, which agrees to ‘on an imburse him. The tax-refunding he points out, is also found in @ very large number of less prominent and unlisted bonds, and if the holder wishes to ascertain any given bond contains this he may examine the wording of the bond, or consult the 4d given in one of the standard investors’ manuals. The field advisory committee of the Acacia Mutual Life Association has closed a series of “highly profitae ble” meetings in Los Angeles, accord- ing to officials of the home Office here.

On this account, as well as present dividends, stock is cons:d- ered reasonably priced.

MI would appreciate your opinion of American Cities Power & Light B. I have 100 shares, costing 8 Do you think it has quick pos- sibilities from this level under more normal conditions? Answer—This column never ven- tures a prediction as to possible fu- ture market movements in any stock. While stock dividends amounting to 10 per cent per annum are at present being id on the class B issue, no cash disbursements have been made thereon, and for that reason the stock lacks particular attractiveness from an investment viewpoint. Yellow Truck & Coach. Cc. B. K—I am writing for some in- formation pertaining to Yellow Truck & Coach. Answer — Second quarter earnings are estimated to be substantially ahead of those for the preceding quarter and for the corersponding 1929 period. In fact, they are unoffi- Clally stated to be the largest in the company’s history, due to record- breaking bus shipments in May, amounting to $3,500,000, as against $1,535,000 in May, 1929. Increased sales reflected the large orders re- otived from leading bus operators, while coaches ordered and scheduled for delivery this month were on 4 par with those of last month. Por the first quarter there was a deficit of 7 cents on the combined class B and common stocks, as against a deficit of 16 cents a share on the class B shares in the same period last year. The prefered and class B divi- dends were passed in April, making the stock a speculation and not suit- able for long term investment. Bahia and Others. A. W. G.—Will you kindly give me information as to the financial and general condition of the following companies: Bahia Corporation, com- mon, Canadian Marconi, Cord Cor- poration? Answer—No statement of income account of Bahia Corporation avail- able. Balance sheet as of June 30, 1928, latest published, showed an ex- cess of current liabilities over cur- rent assets of $160,405, a very unsat- isfactory condition. Company de- ferred dividend due July 1, 1929. on preferred .stock, which has not been paid to date. Latest report of Cana- dian Marconi for year ended Decem- ber 31, 1928, showed net income of $172,664, equal to 4 cents per share. However, no dividends thus far de- clared. Balance sheet of December 31, 1928, showed total current assets $1,176,474, and total current liabili- ties of $100,888. with net working capital of $985.584. Latter compares with $739,041 at close of 1927. Cord Corporation, formed in June, 1929, is likewise a nandividend payer. | three Initial report from date of organiza- tion to November 30, 1929, showed $27,798 net cash income from in- vestments only and 83203,032 net profit from sale of securities and stock dividends. Depreciation in value of securities amounted to $10.- 338.269, indicating $10,107,439 loss for period. Davison Chemical. V. L.—What effect will the tariff have on earnings of Davison Chem- ical? What were last year's profits, and what of the future? Answer—If any, the effect should | be beneficial to Davison, as the tariff has been framed “to protect” the American farmer and any aid accord- ed him should result in larger pur- chasing power. As Davison is one of the leading factors in the fertilizer industy, ite business should benefit by any help given the grower. Earnings in 1929 equaled 83.34 * share, the best showing in years. In addition, Davison is also a factor in the chemical field, being a large pro- ducer of sulphuric acid. While divi- dends on the common were stopped some years ago, the current rate of earnings, estimated at $5 a share for 1930, should result in favorable divi- dend action. The stock, although speculative, holds considerable prom- ise Of entering the dividend class. Collins & Aikman. N. P. 8.—I have been told that Col- lins & Aikman recently introduced a new product on the market which is expected to swell ae this year. Can you tell me what it is, and how you regard the stock? Answer—Collins & Aikman recent- ly placed a new carpet on the market for Nation-wide distribution. This new carpet has a rubberized base. making it easy for the housewife to keep spotiess, and which is under- stood to be meeting with consider- able popularity. Important interests are understood to have been buying the stock during the weak spell in the market, believing that it is sell- ing out of line with its intrinsic value and future prospects. While nothing is paid at present, dividends having been discontinued some months ago, Colling & Aikman appears to have considerable specula- tive attraction if held oy =, er the long SECURITIES pty AVERAGES New week, J A.P.).—Bond ages: 0 Indus. 1 10K. 10 Util. 30 Ti y ’ 90.8 99.4 th he pe S238 8 sis ~- Oe.

‘ WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. JUNE 29, 1930. THEY’D NOT JUMP ABOUT SO, WERE THEY WITHOUT CYCLES By NELSON B. BELL ONSIDERING its comparative youth among the Brobding- nagian enterprises, the motion picture industry betrays a lively and surprising facility for running in cycles. In its maximum lifetime of a third of a century, the cinema will be found by the close student of its development to have passed through the most perplexing of its phases several times. Not always, of course, under precisely the same circumstances and conditions, but as still under attending auspices sufficiently alike to be, at least in ef- fect, identical in many qualities. This is true of almost every ramification of the business. tion certainly has then, necessarily, authorship, screen and camera technique and acting methods. In fact, it has been only by mechanical and scientific perfection that the Camera drama has been kept from wearing itself into a groove so deep as to preclude possible rescue. These trite, and probably trying, observations are inspired by the fact that the week just closed has been peculiarly prolific in its re- habilitation of problems and puzzles with which the industry long has been wholly and intimately familiar. They penetrate many fields of activity inseparably connected with, and in large measure indispensa- ble to, the production, distribution and successful exhibition of cellu- loid entertainment. Beyond this, they cast a nebulous sort of haze over the immediate Produc- followed fixed cycles, as have, future of the canned drama that awakens once more all of the sur- mises, all of the conjectures, all of the wild gueses as to just what may be at the bottom of it all, and what is going to come of it— if anything. In short, establishment of sound and all that it has entailed, the motion picture now that things have become fairly standardized since the has set about demonstrating that it must be constantly in flux to be itself—or even a couple of other fellows. 7 tance were consolidating with such rapidity that it was necessary every little while to call time so that the magnates of principal power and ponderosity might get off the merry-go-round long enough to find out who their partners were that day! It was freely predicted then that the ultimate outcome of all the milling around would, in all probability, be the formation of two mammoth companies dividing the whole of the lucrative business of producing, peddling and presenting films between them, and effec- tively smothering all other competition each for the other. Various forecasts were made as to how these Gargantuan twins would be brought into being and who their parents would be. Usually, as a basis for further argument, it was assumed that Paramount-Famous-Lasky and the Warner Brothers would consti- tute the groundwork of one giant Goldwyn-Mayer the other. While it is by no means assured that the final goal originally set out for is not gradually drawing nearer, it has within the last few days become obvious that the alignment of companies will be greatly different from what was at first expected. Pictures, politics and profits make strange bedfellows. There need be no further explanation than that of the sudden execution of a friendly and mutually beneficial working agreement between Paramount-Publix and Fox, and a practically contemporaneous docu- ment of like character between Warner Brothers and Radio-Keith- Orpheum, familiarly known as R-K-O. Since Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer is close to Fox, through its affiliation with Loew, Inc., which Fox is supposed to have acquired—although the Department of Justice may not be so sure—and Paramount- Publix has an M-G-M franchise covering many situations, just as it has with United Artists, and the Warner Brothers operate First National as a subsidiary and are now hooked up with the Radio crowd—since all these things are true, I say, it is as plain as the nose on your face that——— Omigosh! on your face! A of attracting cash customers to the ticket windows. As nearly as one so remote as this watch tower can judge, the entrepreneurs—if that is what they are—find themselves about where they were back in 1927, just before Mr. Jolson started the golden avalanche with “The Jazz Singer.’”’ The golden avalanche has about run itself out, and, as has been suggested in these wide and very deep two columns on one or two earlier occasions, the patient and paying patrons are once more beginning to market around. To get them in there among all your refrigeration plants you needs must have something. The folks do not go to pictures as blindly as they did when anything that would make a sound from the screen was a sure-fire, ding-busted, star-spangled wow! They now go shopping. The shop that fares so ill as not to have what they seek is out a lot of luck and in a great deal of too bad! So it is, that now, three or four years after, one is greeted again by announcements of the resuscitation of vaudeville, the glorifica- tion of stage unit shows, the picture patrons’ craze for “personal *sonutact,’’ the restoration of the living orchestra and all the rest of it that was so familiar and so persistent until celluloid commotion set us all non compos mentis. What a somewhere. i T was not so many months ago that the air was continuously rent with cries for bigger and better mergers. Companies of impor- NOTHER cycle that the boys are working into again concerns the delicate matter of making up their programs and.means blessing it would be if thts business would only HE irking the industry at the moment is the one that induces picture theater since the advent of sound. This seems nothing less than a deliberate determination to go out and hunt for trouble. For years it has been the contention of the industry that it is an adult institution that can not be regulated down to the measure of a child’s viewpoint, intelligence and experi- ence. This has always been the plea when uplift societies of various sorts have undertaken to arouse a worthy reaction to their supplica- tion that the movie be made tempting to the tot. Now that conditions are so deploying themselves as to bring about anew arrangement of factors in the complicated business of keeping the coffers congested, the theater people themselves are rending the heavens with lamentations that the kid customers should have run out on t! which I very much doubt—in times of need. In tims A dozen years of closs tures failed to brin showman that placed cent of his total. Naturally, no did, s like these they say such things as those. association with exhibitors of motion pic- to these waving ears an estimate from any his juvenile attendance at more than 2 per sagacious trader enjoys losing: even 2 per cent of his customers, but all this hue and cry about business going to pieces because the youngsters fail to appreciate Frederick Lonsdale’s dialogue, or Lawrence Tibbett’s voice, gives the impression of being nothing more substantial than an unfortunate boom in hay wire! It seems equally indefensible for the second-run exhibitors to plead that they can not sell their public even the newest musical films because by the time they are able to get them on the screen the songs are old and the discriminating amusement seeker refuses to buy. Musical films are accorded a quicker and more comprehensive dis- tribution than was ever possible in the earlier days when musica! comedies toured the road. In that spacious era the music did not grow so Old that crowds would decline to attend the local engage- ment even after two years and sometimes longer. I am no great supporter of the idea of protection for the first-run exhibitor after his run is over, but I still do not think the two weeks usually allowed would wreak more havoc than the two years the boys and girls were.accustomed to wait for the road show to come on from its Broadway run’ ‘It is merely, I think, that the movies are beginning to have the heebie-jeebies again! | ~ | Bros’ Earle Theater thie week, where Lois Moran in “Not Damaged” —F oz. MISS RALSTON ON THE STAGE AT THE EARLE Washingtonians have an opportuni- ty to meet in person one of their fa- vorite motion-picture stars at Warner Esther Ralston, the golden girl of the screen, is presenting a cycle of dis- tinctive songs and dances on the stage. Miss Ralston is accompanied in her attractive stage offering by Bruz Pletcher, well-known composer of talking-picture song hits.

While Washington film fans are fa- they will be pleasantly surprised by her remarkable singing and dancing ability. On the Earle screen is to be seen Billie Dove, with Basil Rathbone and a notable cast in a smart, sophisti- cated and genuinely entertaining ro- mance of London society, “A Notorious | Affair.” It is a First National and Vitaphone production. “A Notorious Affair” tells of how a beautiful English society girl surprises her friends by announcing her mar- riage to an obscure but brilliant vio- linist on the eve of her impending engagement to a member of the Brit- ish nobility. Anxious for the success of her hus- band, the girl so manages the affairs of the moody and temperamental genius that he attains wide recogni- tion. | Following an illness, however, the husband becomes infatuated with an- other woman. The liaison comes to an unhappy end, and the violinist falls desperately ill. His wife comes to his aid, despite her humiliation, and the two work out their destiny. One of vaudeville’s classics has becn transplanted, stars, setting and all, to the speaking screen and is on view at the Earle this week as one of the short supplementary hits. The little gem of comedy and hu- man interest is a Vitaphone variety, “The Nagger,” with Mr. and Mrs. Jack Norworth. Also on the bill is a beautiful, fan- tastic and amusing Technicolor short subject, “The Wedding of Jack and Jill.” The Pathe and Paramount news- feels and the orchestra overture com- plete the bill. PRISON DRAMA MADE REAL BY EARNEST WORK Strange escapes from prison were gone over in police records and his- tory to determine the modus operandi of a prison escape in “The Big House” Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s drama of penitentiary revolt which is now play- ing at Loew's Columbia. It was dis- closed by Wallace Beery who has the part of Butch, a hardened criminal. “No less than eighteen escapes were in detail from the rec- director: Frances Marion, author; Morris, Robert Montgomery and I held a two days’ conference, “We found some amazingly ingen- lous escapes. There was a case in New York in which a man got into a hollow steel girder of a bridge in process of construction and crawled away through it. In another case a prisoner who was a trusty just donned the overcoat and hat of a member of the prison board which was in session in the prison and walked out. He was recaptured. Several convicts have escaped in loads of garbage in prison vans. One managed to steal the clothes of a workman on a new build- ing and went out with the con- tractor’s force.” “I don’t think I ever saw such elaborate research on any picture as on this one,” Beery said. “A perfect replica of a prison was reconstrifcted and every step was supervised by former prison officials.” As in most of Beery's roles, the actor's powerful physique was instru- mental in getting him his part in “The Big House,” although his talent for looking the “villain” was also an asset in this imstance. So far as Beery is concerned beauty would only be a hindrance to his screen success. He is quite content to look as feroci- ous and frightful as a part demands. Others who have prominent roles in the picture are Leilia Hyams, Lewis Stone, George F. Marion, Karl Dane and J. C. Nugent. Laurel and Hardy appear in a hot Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer talking comedy “Below Zero.” The Hearst Metrotone News and the Columbia Orchestra complete the program. Ouch! Location sites for exterior scenes of the all-talking picturization of the Zane Grey novel, “The Border Le- gion,” was being discussed. Otto Brower, who is codirecting the film with Edwin Knopf, held out for the Sonora region of the Sierras. “If we go to Sonora we are sure to get something interesting,” he de- clared.

THE STARS OF “GLORY” ONCE AGAIN UNITED For years a film star of consider- able magnitude, Edmund Lowe, did not experience real success until he stormed the topmost heights of movie fame with his portrayal of Sergeant Quirk in the signally successful “What Price Glory?” Complete was the change in his personality; com- plete was the from the pub- Overnight he took his place alongside of screendom’s foremost players. In “What Price Glory?” Edmund Lowe was cast apposite Dolores Del Rio. This picture gave the little Mex- ican star her first big part in pic- tures. And now after two years of phenomenal success for both players as a result of this one film, they ap- pear together for the second time as costars in a dynamic tale of the Pa- risian underworld, vibrant with fist fights, jailbreaks and great loves. It’s called “The Bad One,” and is now playing at Loew’s Palace. As in “What Price Glory?,” “In Old Arizona” and “The Cock-Eyed World,” Lowe appears in a realistic role. Gone are the straight parts that character- ized his early engagements. Rugged, two-fisted, seaman, bouncer and cave- man lover, Lowe has ample oppor- tunity Judging from the script to ex- press the virile personality that peo- ple now indentify with his name. San Jose, Calf., was Lowe's birth- place and there he began his public schooling. At eighteen he graduated from the Santa Clara University with a bachelor of arts degree. At college he was captain of the baseball team which comprised Harry Wolters, Artie Schaeffer and Benny Kauf, all big leaguers today. His first appearance on the screen was in “Vive la France,” starring Dor- othy Dalton. .Then came “Eyes of Youth,” op ite Clara Kimball Young, and individual stardom in “The Silent Command.” On the stage the famous team of Broadway stars, Leavitt and Lock- wood, appear in “Hit Bits of 1930.” Others in the cast of the little show that clicks big are Jones and Elliott, a song and dance or two; Ted Eddy’s Melodians, entertaining instrumental- ists; Elenore Wood, a future star; Dick Perry, jazzical jester, and the Lawson Girls, syncopations shapliest steppers. Dick Liebert concludes his engage- ment by presenting another of his unque and original organlogues, while the Hearst Metrotone News, short subjects, and the Palace Orchestra round out the program. SINGING STAR ABLE ACTRESS IN GRIM PLAY The cause of penitentiary riots is graphically and pitilessly depicted in an unusual and thrilling romantic drama, “Numbered Men,” a First Na- tional and Vitaphone production, now being shown at Warner Bros.’ Metro- politan Theater. The timeliness of this searching expose of typical conditions in American penitentiaries is accentuat- ed by the fact that the great jail climaxes in the picture, was adapted with almost cruel fidelity from the accounts of similar prison uprisings of recent months. However, “Numbered Men” is not all stone walls and cropped heads. It carries also an appealing love story and its romantic moments are among its most interesting. In the all-star cast of this strong screen story are Conrad Nagel, Bernice Claire, Ray- mond Hackett, Tully Marshall, Ralph Ince, Maurice Black, William Holden, Blanche Frederici and Ivan Linow, “Numbered Men” tells of the love of a convict for the girl who prom- ised she would wait for him; of an- other man’s efforts to win the girl and to tempt the convict lover to try to escape from prison. The working of the honor system under a humane and farsighted warden helps to unite the two lovers and to defeat ter, is one Hollywood actress who be- lieves implicitly in the power of the press—especially in classified adver- tisements. A small want ad inserted in a New York newspaper by Samuel Goldwyn was the key that unlocked the motion icture gates for Miss Moran. She just returned from Paris, where she was a ballet dancer and singer, and also had appeared in several French pictures. Goldwyn planned to uce the Shakespearean “Romeo and Juliet.” Miss Moran already had stormed the movie citadels of New York with- out success. She saw Goldwyn’s ad- vertisement and answered it in ‘per- son. She so im the producer with her naivete that he signed her for the leading role in “Stella Dal- las,” which he also was planning at that time. He became sg enthusias- tic over Miss Moran and Belle Bene nett, who had the other femtinine role, that he discarded his Shakespearean plans and made “Stella Dallas” im- mediately. Both Lois and Belle Bennett scored sensational successes in this picture, and Miss Moran was immediately signed to a long term contract by Fox Film Corporation. She has appeared in a score of pictures since, including several all-talking productions. She won fame by her portrayal of the leading feminine role in “Behind That Curtain,” and repeated in “Words and Music.” Her most re- cent success was opposite Al Jolson in In addition to Miss Moran and By- ron, the cast includes Robert Ames, Inez Courtney, George “Red” Corco- ran, Rhoda Cross and Ernest Wood. On the stage Sam Jack Kaufman is continuing as master of ceremonies and introducing Fanchon & Marco's most colorful and elaborately mount- ed “Ivory” Idea, with the following . artists: Will Aubrey, Four High Hat- ters; Hy Mayer, Betty Lou Webb, Goetz & Duffy, Peggy Carse and the Sunkist Beauties. Other prominent features of the program include the return of Leon Brusiloff from a week’s vacation di- recting his men through another of his special arrangements, ‘“‘Music of the Modern South.” Morton Floodas is at the organ, and, of course, the always interesting Fox Movietone News speaks for it- self.

"Twas just the other day in New York that a gallery took up the old subject—what is wit, what is humor?—and went after it, Mr. George Tyler, the well-known theatrical producer, had just “walked out” on a Broadway comedy success. with it, George?” some one asked. “What was the matter “Too many wisecracks,” replied Mr. Tyler. “‘Wisecracks?

Hear Mr. Wynn: He even calls himself a stu- What will and what will not make people laugh? “I don’t know why it should be,”’ said Mr. Wynn, “but no matter who comes for an interview they expect me to slay them in my dressing room with explosive gags. Interviewers, along with the general play- going public, have the erroneous conception that comedians are born, not made, and therefore have a ready fire of wit day and night to en- tertain hearers on and off the stage. the truth. Nothing could be further from Humor is as much a study as medicine, law and engineer- ing, to mention but a few of the professions that require assiduous atudy. To be frank, it is much simpler to follow the formulas in medicine and law than it is for one to set down the rules of comedy and expect students to follow them either as creators of humor or ex- ponents of comedy in the theater. “I take my humor seriously because it is a serious business. Oné must know the structure of a gag before oné can successfully hope to pull it and get results. After all, there are probably only seven origi- nal gags and it is redressing these in different locales and by pinnirg on unusual and unexpected twists that makes for the countless thou- sands of jokes floating around the world. I have told jokes and stories to my friends which produced virtually howls and yet these same stories were told and probably were originated by Tarlton, jes- ter to Queen Anne of England in 1609. I mention this to illustrate how old much of our modern, up-to-the-minute humor really is. I venture to say a new gag hasn’t been written in probably a few cen- -turies. “T have amused friends with jokes written by a man named Poggio, who was secretary to the first Pope in the Middle Ages. Of course, I rewrote and modernized them, but my friends thought they were sim- ply wonderful.

Just as play situations have not changed through the centuries, so humor has re- mained stationary.

Thus, a story about a stingy Scotchman will, if told by a Scotchman, become a story about a stingy Irishman. The It is a good thing, however, that we mortals possess the sense of humor; for without it this would be a dreary world indeed. As one witty Irishman so aptly put it, the best way to make an Englishman happy in his old age is to tell him a joke when he’s young!” - * O* the other hand, that old-timer, Taylor Holmes, believes humor "Tis a neat way of expressing it. to be a mental shock. Mr. Holmes adorns his moral with a tale from the days when he applied for his first job—when the managers were not looking for his services! “If you are a comedian, make me laugh,” sald the manager. “I’m too hungry to make you ‘bust’ into giggles,”’ said Mr. Holmes, “but I’ll make you smile if you lend me $80 and don’t take my address.” The manager smiled lightly, and then laughed. “It was the mental) shock of parting with $80 and the sudden happiness in realizing that he didn’t have to,” says Holmes, “that made him smile.”’ “A happy mental shock usually results in laughter and at least 75 per cent of all the different kinds of laughter is caused by merry brain surprises. A man carrying a curtain pole into a street car, if he can get by the conductor, can keep the passengers tittering if he will let the end of the pole swing dangerously near the back of some man’s hat and appear unconcerned while doing it. The passengers are ready to laugh at the mental shock to the victim should the pole land upon the hat-——especially a high hat. The happy man or woman who laughs audibly on coming into a theater is usually looked at with wide-eyed surprise, while no one is ever surprised to see the average couple walk into any public place with serious faces, which, of course, proves that seriousness is the most common frame of mind of the average person. The serious actor finds his audience in the frame of mind he de- sires, while the comedian has to drag them out of themselves | and shock the brain into a good receptive mood for light absurdities. The laughs resulting depend largely upon the deceit employed and contained in the plot of the play.” 7 . OT all the laughs, of course, are destined for broadcast. There are always those silent little chuckles, and some of them hap- ‘pen back stage; or on the stage itself, but suppressed. Every actor at one time.or another has had the agonizing experi- ence of finding a “prop” missing—the telegram that is supposed to arrive and does not, or the telephone that at the crucial moment is nowhere to be found. There are innumerable anecdotes of muffing lines or missing cues on the stage, but none more delightful than one which Ferdinand Gottschalk tells of Ellen Terry, who, chancing to misquote a line, exclaimed with sweet ingenuousness, “Oh, I said that in the other act!” After years of experience on the stage, Mr. Gottschalk, trouper that he is, always hovers near the door of the set: On his last visit to Washington, a member of the cast chided him for his alertness; his ‘feat of indulging in conversation back stage. » “When I was a youfig man,” Mr. Gottschalk explained, “I had to play a scene in Which I was to put aside the curtain after the heroine of the tragedy had taken poison. I was in the wings talking t6 one of the young ladies of the company when I hearaé what I thought was my cue.

HOLIDAY FUN AT GLEN ECHO There will be a big three-day cele- bration for the majority of people before and over the Fourth of July this year, and the management of Glen Echo Park, always on the alert to provide as much recreation as pos- sible, has made special ments to handle the crowds, and has inau- gurated many fun features for the week-end. McWilliams and his eleven-plece or- chestra, including special entertain- ers, will be in evidence to provide the music for free dancing on the Fourth from 2:30 until 3:30 p.m, The reg- ular night session of dancing will prevail as usual, starting at 8:30. Throughout the park, picnic parties will find plenty of benches, tables, and other things to make them com- fortable, and of course refreshments of every kind are available. No end of fun may be had at the park on the amusement devices, many of which afe new this year, includ- ing a giant Ferris wheel. , Other rides to put plenty of punch jn Independence Day fun are the caterpillar, carrousel, old mill, air- plane swing, whip, skooter and derby racer, while more fun may be had in the midway, and in the penny arcade, each of which has many new things to offer this season. Special car and bus service will take care of the crowds, however nu- merous. Regular bus service, as & matter of fact, will run from now on, daily and Sunday, from Dupont circle to the park, at 8, 8:30 and 9:00, returning from the park at 10:45, 11 and 11:40. The buses are of the large type, and the fare 35 cents for the one-way trip. Plenty of parking space is available at the park for those who go by motor. SEASIDE PARK HOLIDAY PLAN Seaside Park, at Chesapeake Beach, is making preparations for the big- gest Fourth in the history of the beach. The new resort, situated on high ground beside the sparkling waters of Chesapeake Bay, provides the only salt-water swimming pool available to the public near Wash- ington, and this attraction is proving exceptionally popular. Wednesday evenings special programs of water sports are planned, and swimmers may enjoy the pool under flood-lights any evening. Music while bathing is an added feature. Just beside the pool is the beauti- ful new ballroom, with dancing after- noon and evening. In the evening, Joe Lurell’s band furnishes the pep- plest of jazz music. Other attrac- tions at the park include coaster dip, airplane swing, coaster ride, minia- ture railroad, skooter, whip, skee ball, bowling alleys, fishing, boating and crabbing. There is ample park- ing space, or you can leave your car at District Line station and go by train through southern Maryland, a delightful ride. District Line may also be reached by cars from the Treasury or bus from Ninth and Pennsylvania avenue. A big celebration is promised at the park oyer the Fourth, with lots go- ing on from Thursday evening until Saturday night. The park is open daily, but the holiday will mean nu- merous added features for the en- joyment of patrons. Plenty Cars. The management of Glen Echo Park, the big free admission amuse- ment resort has concluded arrange- ments with the Washington Railway & Electric Co. whereby it will aug- ment its usual splendid car service to the park by running additional .cars on evening preceding July 4, and all day during the holiday.

The two separated Fox Film studios will be combined, Mr. Sheehan ex- plained, to conserve time, money and to imcrease the efficiency of talking picture production. Five million dol- lars will be spent in the next six months for additional Movietone City buildings and landscaping. This move, it is pointed out, elimi- nates two overheads, unifies all ele- ments of picture making in one com pact organization and does away with duplication of every department at each studio. ‘ The new scheme, it is estimated, will in the course of two years repay the amount invested in consolidation nue, where films have been since 1917, will be abandoned within the year, with the exception of the ‘film printing plant and color film labora This studio will be par- tially utilized after January 1, but will be = ete 4 abandoned after June 1, 1931. e recently com- pleted laboratory will in a few years be removed to a site reserved for it at Movietone City.

This develop- ment will return a substantial com- mercial income Film Corpora will be leased to Fanchon & Marco for a costume manufacturing center, a dancing school and a studio for oo. productions. tone City, by January 1, 1931, will represent in land, equipment and buildings a $25,000,000 plant, being the largest and most complete talking picture studio in the world linking art with science, which, harnessed with electricity, crystallizes in enter- tainment for the screen. Several of the Hollywood studio buildings will be moved to Movietone City having been constructed with that idea in mind. Savi in gteel from the large stages will conserve more than $175,000. Equipment also will be moved, the only additions be- ing where departments are expanded. All projection and photographic équipment for Movietone City will be su by General Theaters Equipment, Inc., and all sound units by Western Electric. A studio planning committee, head- by by Sol M. Wurtzel, superintendent of production, with George L. Bagnell, comptroller, as vice chairman, is con- sulting with the architects and bulid- ers, working out plans for develop- ment of Movietone City to a maxi- mum of efficiency. Other members of the committee include Wfll Rogers, John Ford, Tom Barry, Edwafd Butcher, William Darling, Jack Gard- ner, Max Golden, E. H. , Ralph Hammeras, Asa W. Hudson, Ben Jack- son, Michael Leshing, Walter Quinlan, William Steincamp John Stone, Vic- tor M., Shapiro, Arthur Taylor, H. Keith Weeks, Ben Wurtzel, Robert Yost, Sophie Wachner, Lois Moran and Frances Richardson. ' With the unification of the studios at Movietone City an industrial cen- ter, running from Santa Monica boulevard to Pico boulevard, along the public golf course, will be con- structed. It will house electrical prop- erty, scenery, wardrobe, make-up, maintenance, nter, machine, sound and all other departments. They will be so placed that the latest development of “time and motion study” will find expresg'on in greater studio efficiency. Marshall Hall Down the river to Marshall Hall has been a favorite trip for week-enders and holiday crowds for many years. This year will be no exception, as the Fourth of July three-day-holiday pe- riod is expected to swell the total of visitors to the old Manse, where spe- cjal preparationg are being made to take care of everybody. The steamer Charles Macalester makes three trips dally, leaving the Seventh Street Wharf at 10 a. m., 2:30 and 6:30. Arriving at the Hall after a very pleasant river trip, various amuse- ments may be enjoyed. There are beautiful picnic groves, with plenty of tables and benches for all-day family outings. Dancing, bowling, airplane rides, shooting galleries and other devices add much to the en- joyment of all who make this their playground. “NOT DAMAGED” A picture that is frenkly au- dacious in its treatment of those problems which con- front every young girl. It is the life story of a beautiful | and refined girl, left alone in | the world to make her own livelihood and whose great- est desire is to have the luxuries she sees others en- joying. She can, and offers to pay the price with beauty, grace and charm. LOIS MORAN portrays the part of the girl | and is supported by WALTER BYRON and a cast of notables. On the stage FANCHON & MARCO present __itheir glorious creation of color, laughter and song, “IVO- RY,” featuring WILL AUBREY, 4 HIGH HAT- TERS, HY MEYER, BETTY LOU WEBB, GOETZ & DUFFY, PEG- GY CARSE, THE SUN- KIST BEAUTIES, and, of course, the master of cere- monies extraordinary SAM JACK KAUFMAN GOETZ & DUFFY, Austin and Fae, respec- tively, contributing to the fun of a Fanchon & Marco “Gidea” called “Ivory,” cur- rent at the Fox. THAT FRENCHY SPITFIRE NOT OUT FOR LONG Lily Damita will sall on the &. 8. Paris for a holiday in the south of France in June. On her return from Paris last Sep- tember, Samuel Goldwyn loaned her to Bobby Connolly for the feminine lead opposite Jack Donahue in “Sons o’ Guns.” Despite lack of training for the stage, Connolly insisted that she was the perfect girl for the part, basing his judgment on Lily's per- formance in her last American picture, “The Cock-eyed World.” Connolly's faith persisted, even after rumors about town insisted that because of bad from try-out engagements, Miss Damita was to be replaced. When “Sons 0’ Guna” finally opened, Miss Damita scored one of the great- est personal successes the American stage has known since the days of Anna Held. There has only been Goldwyn’'s other find, Evelyn Laye, to equal Lily’s triumph. Miss Damitea is now anxious to ggt back into pictures. She will return to New York late in August, and pro- ceed immediately to Hollywood. On her arrival in Hollywood, Miss Damita will probably begin work opposite Al Jolson in the picturization of “Sons o” Gunes.” GLORIA SWANSON: WILL NOT APPEAR ON STAGE JUST YET LORIA SWANSON will not ap- pear on the stage. At least that is the present decision of the talented star who has turned from the field of drama to the froth of comedy with her most recent pic- ture, “What a Widow!” which United Artists will release this summer. Mise Swanson's singing in “The Trespasser” brought about a great de- mand for her appearance on concert and operatic stages from many im- t centers. hic Orchestra to appear as a soloist, , for the benefit of the tallykeepers, marks the first time any film player has been so honored. A series of concert appearances in the larger cities of the United States also was proposed. Other offers came from abroad requesting that ehe take part in European opera. And so in @ measure the dreams of the little girl who once worked for Mack Sennett and had her voice cul- tivated to prepare for an ic ca- reer, came true. ut as the child grew older and her fame in pic- tures became greater, the ambition of other days was somewhat fofgot- ten. Today the motion picture holds first place in Gloria Swanson’'s life. - In discussing the barking on a stage deciared that “for tiie time being, at least, I feel I should remain true to pictures. I would not want to attempt public appearances without properly preparing myself, which re- quires considerable time. Pictures, unfortunately leave little time for anything else.” As in her first talking picture, Miss Sawneon will sing in “What a Widow!” Three numbers were espe- clally written for this purpose by Vincent Youmans, the composer of “No, No, Nanette” and “Hit the Deck.” They are entitled “Love Is Like a Song,” “Say Oul, Cherie” and “To the Only One.” The story of “What a Widow!” was written around Gloria Swanson’s per- sonality by Josephine Levett, with dialogue by James Gleason and James Seymour. The idea was to provide amusement, pure and simple, but in- stead of permitting the picture to de- pend upon comedy alone for its ap- peal, the star has given the story a 4s ng of smartness and sophistica- on. Repeating the practice observed in a pictures, she wears the latest tions to come out of the Parisian shops. There are clothes for morn- ing, afternoon and evening wear, clothes suitable for everything from riotous comedy to the regal magni- ficence of a formal reception in her town house. Supporting Miss Swanson in “What a Widow!” are Owen Moore, Lew Cody and Margaret Livingston. Ronald Roving. Ronald Colman arrives in Amater- dam this week after a 1,200 mile auto tour on the continent. Since hig re- turn to Europe he has spent less than four hours in London. He expects to visit relatives in the north of Eng- land for a few weeks before embark- Mg for New York. His arrival in New York will coincide with the opening of “Raffies,” his newest picture. Mary Denies. Mary Pickford has not, as stated, | abandoned production of “Forever Yours.” Miss Pickford has held up production for certain changes in the story, to decide which scenes might be better if retaken and to improve the treatment of certain dramatic situa- | tions so that a finer production will result. The film is already more thap half completed. The above in- | formation comes from the highest possible authority, Mary Pickford. MARSHALL HALL Excursion Every Day Steamer leaves Tih St. Wharf 10 A.

By WILLIAM ULLMAN, Missouri and its motorists, unlike many other States and their car own- ers, have buried the taxation hatchet. Where in other parts of the country the car Owner protests that he is taxed all out of proportion to the service the State gives him, and that forms to the definition of safe driv- ing lights, many feel that the de- mands of safety call for a maximum night speed law considerably below that permitted in the daytime. Recent discussion of the light prob- lem has brought out other aspects of thinking on the subject which are not generally knowh. One of these is that since average speeds are higher these days, what is needed is more illumination in front of the car. In- stead of 21 and 24 candlepower light bulbs, many believe that 32 candle- power would be preferable. Many States recently have acted to make bulbs of this power legal where once they were strictly forbidden. A num- ber of others have the point under consideration and some are known to be favorably inclined toward the change. Recent statistics show that head- lights are responsible for one-fourth of the motor mishaps that occur at night. The figures are sufficiently significant to have restimulated thinking on a method that will pro- duce greater safety. The average motorist will hope that it will not be found in a lower speed limit.

American aviation, though some- times held to be lagging behind Eu- ropean development, is on & more stable basis because most foreign air lines are controlled or aided by the government, whereas in the United States they are almost entirely in the hands of private interests. These statements were made before the Indiana section of the Society of Automotive Engineers by E. P.

What has been termed the greatest sales training school in the history of the automobile industry—a series of five meetings conducted over a period of ten days in each of 12,000 Chevrolet retail stores in the United States.—has just been completed by the Chevrolet Motor Co. The thought behind the _ schoo! was the belief that most automobile eralesmen possess only the theory of selling and usually are forced to un- dergo long experience and overcome many difficulties before they are able | to furnish prospective buyers with a fully satisfactory exposition of the | car's features. One of the features of the meetings was the use of motion pictures of the “still” type in presenting the | subject of each session. In all, five | films were used. The most novel of | these was the one entitled “Mr. Lilli- | putian Sélls a Chevrolet.” It depicts | ® salesman explaining the features of the car to a prospect.

This, of course, could not be precisely followed in the Mis- | |souri case, since agriculture and not _industry is being served by the roads. An interesting point is made by Maj. Roy F. Britton, president of the State automobile club, in connection with the Missourl motorist’s solution of the taxation and highway financ- ing problem. He says: “This reflects an interesting side- light on the use of the initiative and referendum. We have found by our experience in using the initiative on occasions that the people themselves will willingly and enthusi- astically do what the legislature often hesitates or refuses to do. “When the highway program was lagging several years ago and more funds were needed to speed up its construction, the Automobile Club of Missouri proposed an initiative for an amendment to the constitution in- creasing the motor vehicle license fees 50 per cent and imposing a gasoline tax of 2cents. The governor refused to call a special session of the legisla- ture to consider the proposal, so it ‘was submitted on the initiative and was adopted by a tremendous ma- jority at the general election in 1924. “Many years ago, when the initia- tive and refererdum was first pro- osed, it was feared by conservation |p elements that it would be used for radical or socialistic purposes. Here in Missouri it has been used con- structively to advance the welfare of the State.” Missour!’s road program is. one of the State’s proudest evidences of that fact. . ° . > .

Stanton’'s undoubtedly brilliant speech is completely drowned. I hasten into the garden to see the effert this historical exclama- tion has made on the doughboys. Their faces are long and sour. Their lips are thin and tightly pressed. They are hot and weary. A tall blond Texan, his cam- paign hat over one eye, looks at me in the meanest possible fashion. “Hey, kid Which one of them fhere guys is La Fayette?”’ Sizing Each Other Up. MERICANS were not what the French expected them to be: the French were not what the Yanks anticipated they would find. Such was the flabbergasting discovery of the first two mgnths of the sojourn of the A. E. F. in France. Now, if the American Army consisted of those gay, handsome lads portrayed in the present-day war pictures and war plays. and if the girls of France looked and behaved anything like the belles of Hollywood, things would have adjusted themselves much easier. For the first time in the his- tory of the two countries the rank and file of both nations were brought face to face. Up to the summer of 1917 France dealt with an entirely different type of American. Bankers and business men on a holiday in Paris, idle rich and their families airing their wealth and swank, wild collegiates painting the grand boulevards red, a few successful Broadway managers and actors. And then the rmanent American colony in Paris, consist- ing of the snobbish expatriates of the variety ‘described by Henry James. Catering to the aristocracy, endeavoring to break into French society, sneering at all things back home, including their natal tongue; trying to marry French titles and throwing heliotrope hysterics over a moth-eaten piece of Old World’s “savoir faire.” As far as prewar France waé concerned Anna Gould personi- fied America much more nearly than Thomas Alva Edison. Is it any wonder that in July, “1917, the French were fully pre- pared to meet a contingent of broad-shouldered, handsome, laughing giants with their hands dug deep in their well-stuffed pockets—flattering, easy going, ever ready to praise all things Parisian. The first French disillusion- ment was caused by the appear- ance of the American soldiers. As fate would have it, the early contingents consisted of blight- weight young fellows well under 6 feet. Had a squad of Broadway's finest led out the American Army the French would have been com- pletely satisfied. As it was, the reaction was somewhat different. ‘They are so little.” “They are so thin.”’ “They can hardly carry their packs.”’ “They are underfed.”’ “Are they the Boy Scouts?”’ “What are we going to do with these little fellows? It would take us months to fatten them up. To a man, all the ticed the thinness. To a man, they all overlooked the toughness. So much for the physical side. The moral one created a still bigger disappointment. These strangely determined lads from over the seas flatly re- fused to eat out of the hand of their hosts. Generals and soldiers alike had fixed ideas of their own. A few weeks after the newly ar- French no- rived Americans were sent to learn how to handle the famous “76."" their teacher, Gen. Rene Alexandre, of the French artil- lery, came to my house in a state of perplexed curiosity. ‘“Tell me,”’ he commenced in a shy manner, with one eye closed, as was his habit, “what is the mieaning in ’

This morning while I was about to give them their third lesson in handling the ‘‘75”’ they pushed me aside and called me that strange name for at least’ half a dozen times.” Further explanation brought out the astonishing fact that his pupils, having a peculiar knack for the handling of firearms, learned all that was to be taught in a few lessons. So much 80 that in order to demonstrate their ability, and for want of any other living target, they threatened to turn the famous “75” on their teacher. Gen Rene Alexandre was quite sure that the Americans he was accustomed to meeting in the fashionable salons of the Fau- bourg St. Germain belehged to a different* nation. No end of irritation was caused among the French by the famous Yankee self-assurance. A commander of the celebrated French “Blue Devils” (a crack regiment of Alpine sharpshooters), Capt. Andre Renaud, was trem- bling with rage when he brought to mecthe tale of his talk with an American Marine. It seems that the captain had . been on a visit of inspection to a Marine sector. Speaking English quite fluently he availed himself of that oppor- tunity to tell the Americans of the numerous hardships confront- ing them. “Take for instance the Battle of the Marne . Do you know that for five days one of the regi- ments was cut off from all com- munications and supplies and in consequence was obliged to go without food and water?” ... “Yeah?’’ said the Marine. “And what price Verdun, my dear man. When every time a man tried to fetch water into the trench he was killed on the spot” . *“Yeah?"’ “And even now . . Think of all those fresh German divisions being taken off of the eastern front and brought up against us here in the west. Why, do you realize thaf in the next battle they may outnumber us ten to one?” “Well,” said the Marine, swing- ing his gun across his shoulder, “I guess they are out of luck this time” .. The nature of the American disenchantment could be easily surmised. Wherever the fault lies, for one Treason or another the word “France” has a happy-go-lucky, naughty meaning for the average American mentality. Many of the boys that landed Over there expected to find things pretty much to their liking. The strict conservative ways in which the French families live and raise their daughters at first sur- prised your doughboy, then upset him and finally annoyed him greatly. He couldn’t grasp what was on Suzanne’s mind when she insisted on having her mother atcompany them to a movie. Or why should she raise cain just because he sug- gested a sit-out under the trees in the Champs Elysees after the show. Or when visiting her at home why the whole damn family had to be present. Did she mean it or was it a frame-up? . All these small inconsequential differences are related by me for the simple reason that they illus- trate better than anything else the lack of mutual understanding and knowledge as experienced on both sides. The first serious Franco-British- American rub was to be caused, however, by the higher-ups. If the man in the street was disappointed in the appearance of the American troops, the French government and the allied ¢om- ' , ' ‘ . -. THE WASHINGTON See manderg were in turn bitterly dis- appointed in Gen. Pers They expected to encounter a mere figurehead but were brought face to face with a firm de- termined soldier who was in the habit of knowing what he wanted and, which is more, of getting what he wanted. When the possibility of America entering the war og the side of the Allies was first discussed in Paris and London, it was gener- ally understood in both places that the United Statés would contribute largely in money, food stuffs and munitions only. They hardly dreamed that shé could supply manpower as well. The turn of military events proved the neces- sity of bringing Americans over- seas. Considering the so-called “American inexperience in war- fare’ it was generally understood between the Allies that the Yankee soldiers (if and when they did arrive) would immediately be thrown in to fill up the gaps in the French and British lines. They were expected to serve under the command of the Allied generals, and Gen. Pershing was to be used as a sort of technical adviser. The present controversy be- tween Foch and Clemenceau is really amusing to any one familiar with the facts. Clemenceau wanted to order Pershing at will. The awakening was hard; therefore he blamed it all on Foch. Fochtin turn was equally anx- ious to place American troops un- der French command and found out he had not the power to do so. Therefore, he blamed it all on Clemenceau. In fact, neither one nor the other was to blame. They both acted as two great patriotic Frenchmen should have acted. And in turn Gen Pershing assumed the only possible posi- tion for an American commander responsible to the omar 3 peo- ple. The whole thing losis pretty clear in 1930. In those oOveranx- ious months of 1917-18 it led to no end of bitterness. The flame of Franco-British ire was ably fueled by a coterie of Gen. Pershing’s compatriots who wanted to see a different man in his shoes. POST: Wood and Bliss. «. JUNE 29, 1930. ome apes oe — the old man Clemenceau himself is stuck on Bliss, It hands me a scream. After all, what does Clemereveau know about Bliss? The big idea is that the old man- would welcome any one at the moment, because he can not bend Pefshing to his will.” ~ The. information brought by Col. Reed, although authoritative, was by no means sensational. It was an o —ecret in the allied military circles that Persh- ing was to be recalled. It was whispered that a petition to that intent covered by signatures of members of the allied govern- ments was to be sent to Wash- ington. Letters addressed by prominent American politicians. to their friends im France were being cir- culated around, and French news- paper men were displaying a keen interest in the military record of Gen. Wood. Gen. Pershing him- self seemed to be the only person in Paris who remained particu- larly calm in the face of all in- quiries. At the time these intrigues were at their height a very char- acteristic conversation took place between Pershing and Col. Reed showing clearer than anything else how thoroughly deprived the general was of the slightest jeal- ousy. He was discussing with Col. Reed the absence of experienced American commanders to take charge of the separate armies. “We need good fighting officers in France,” said Pershing, “Who have you to suggest among your acQuaintances ... “The general,’’ explained Read, “was pacing up and down the floor in an excited mood. I knew a name to suggest; but I likewise feared that that name would bring thé general’s wrath down on my head as for many years the man I had in mind and the general were bitter enemies. I was afraid to speak lest he would think that I, too, was looking for his suc- * cessor.

I must have him here.”’ The commander suggested by Col. Reed arrived in France short- ly afterward. He happened to be one of those mentioned from the very beginning as the possible successor to Gen. Pershing. The picture of Col. Reed pull- ing his feet up under him in the chair for. fear of being spurred by remain for- ever in my mind. Col. Reed stood 6 feet 2 in his stocking feet. _ * o . + Measure of Precaution. HE personal safety of the com- mander in chief represents a sufficiently important problem in any army. In the ease of the A. E. F., the business of protecting the peace and quiet of Gen. Pershing was made much more difficult by the very t of his having his headquarters in a strange city in ~ an alien country. Not that any one threatened his life. It would have been comparatively easy to have the house he lived in sur- rounded with trustful guards. The principal idea was to keep visitors from intruding on his privacy. The representatives of the Surete Generale (French Secret Service), thorough as they were, openly con- fessed their inability to distin- guish between the Americans who had important business to discuss and the transatlantic crowd of job hounds, information seekers and uniformed pests. There was no lack of inventors, disguised cameramen, enterpris- ing promoters, ambitious society leaders, self-made strategists and all other queer species that make it their business to follow the army. Knowing Pershing’s likes and dislikes as well as he did, Col. Reed decided to act on his own. Amusing as it may sound, the principal: danger that caused sleepless nights to the. faithful colonel originated in the fact of Gen. Pershing being a widower. Overzealous mothers of French, English and American nationality were firmly sold on the idea that the day of armistice should find Gen. Pershing « married man once more. | Thus the bitter fight between the sharp-witted mammas and Col. Reed went on silently from June, 1917, till July, 1919. While no exact. records were kept and no statistics computed, the colonel estimated that not less than 500 photographs of ravish- ing beauties were destroyed by his pitiless, protecting hands. The amount of engraved invitations and perfumed letters can never be counted. Soldiers being notoriously sus- ceptible to a winning smile, the choice of the guards was no easy matter. Record and bravery amounted to nothing. ‘What I am looking for,” the colonel used to say, “are the fel- lows that have been jilted” ... It takes all kinds.of people to make up an army; eventually Col. Reed found the guards that quali- fied. Ge. Pershing was blissfully unaware of that particular fea- ture of the colonel’s activities till one night when leaving his rooms by the back é@ntrance he discov- ered the presencé of two sturdy soldiers blocking the staircase. “What are you doing here?” demanded the general. “Orders, sir” ...,. “Orders from whom?” “Col. Reed, sir” .. . “Take up yOur place outside the street door” ... The next morning Col. Reed had some explaining to do. Thinking fast, he blaméd it all on his fear of eavesdropping. Having taken every precaution against distaphones he wished to safeguard the general frem the menace of keyhole experts. Obviously Gen. Pershing shared his idea, for he in his turn in- vented a new way.to disappoint listeners-in. . Having very important matters to discuss with Col. Reed, he gave him an appointment at the beau- tiful racetrack of Longchamps, de- serted during the war. “We did the full Grand Prix distance,”” explained Col. Reed, “one mile seven furlongs ... It’s a beautiful way to talk... The track is wide and even the bordering trees could not hear our voices” ...... (Te, be contianed, ) ws eer, «|

> BRS HOMAS JEFFERSON record- 3 ed in his diary that July 1, 1776, was “very warm” in Philadelphia. The Continental Congress was sitting. The day Opened with “fine sunshine” and & southerly wind. Towards 4 e’clock in the afternoon “‘came on a thunder gust, with rain,” -which “cleared up about 6.” At 10 that night there was a “fine moon,” and the air was “light and pleas- ant.”” During all of that momen- tous day the temperature had va- ried but little, for at 9 a. m. it was 8114, and ten hours later, as the Virginian sat down to his modest dinner and his bottle of white wine, it had risen % a de- gree. He had been li-tening that day to a great debate. Richard Hen- ry Lee, of Virginia, on June 7, had proposed that the thirteen Colo- mies assert their independence. Then, as now, congressmen were timid, and to tell the truth, out- side of New England and Vir- ginia, there was little sentiment in the country for such action. When the Massachusetts delega- tion was journeying to Philadel- phia, ‘“‘they were met outside of the city by Dr. Rush, Mr. Mifflin, Mr. Bayard and several of the most active sons of liberty at Philadelphia,”” who stated that they desired a conference with the New England insurgents. “We invited them to take tea with us in a private apartment,’ wrote old John Adams. ‘They asked leave to give us some infor- mation and advice, which thankfully granted. “They represented to us that » «+ We were suspected of wishing independence. Now, said they, you must not utter the word in- dependence. Nor give the least hint or insinuation of the idea, either in Congress or any private conversation; if you do, you are undone; for independence is as unpopular in all the Middle and South as the stamp act itself. No « man dares to speak of it... .” Dr. Rush was taking no chancés on anybody bearing the name of Adams. He had heard too much of the doings of old Sam and old John. ‘“‘Ycu are thought to be too warm,” he told them. ‘You must not come forward with any bold measure; you must not pre- “tend to take the lead.” “This was plain dealing,’’ John Adams commented in his letter. “But it made a deep impression.” We shall see what sort. “Lee's resolution crystallized the sentiment of at least a vocal element of the country, but the timid men had no stomach for the halter and were not ready to act. So they voted, after two days’ epirited debate, to put it over un- til July 1. They wanted to hear from home. Their ears were to the ground. It must have been with keen enjoyment——or shall we say a ™ sénse ‘of malicious humor—that the youngest delegate to the Con- gress set down in his diary the state of the weather on that July day, after the debate on independ- ence commenced anew. We have no minutes of that famous secret Session. But we can glean a knowledge of what transpired, however, from the private letters of the men who participated in the debate. From them we learn that the controversy was not un- like the weather. Thomas Dickinson, of Pennsyl- vania, opposed the separation. Read, of Delaware; Alsop, of New York; Morris, of Pennsylvania (who was to become the financier ef the Revolution); Humphreys and Wiling. also of Pennsylvania, stood with Dickinson.

By DAVID RANKIN BARBEE John Adams led the debate fer independence. Wythe and Lee and others supported him. Jefferson, writing to Madison half a century later, dubbed Adams “the colos- sus of our side.’’ He had no match in that body as a forceful speaker. He was in his element in such a forum, On a test vote only eight of the thirteen Colonies voted for inde- pendence. Pennsylvania voted against it, 4 to 3. South Caro- lina’s delegates thought their in- structions were not definite enough to permit them to go all the way. New York’s delegation was uninstructed and couldn’t vote. One of Delaware’s three delegates was ill and the two present were divided, McKean for independence, Read against it. Thomas Jefferson, who draft- ed the Declaration of Inde- pendence only to see its most precious passages deleted. It was a disheartening day for New England and Virginia. July 2, 1776, brought quite a change in the weather, Jefferson tells us. The morning was ‘‘cloudy.’’ and “‘before 10 came on a heavy rain,’ which ‘“‘continued till past 2,” when it ‘“‘cleared up” and at “5 grew warm.” At il o’clock that night the great Vir- ginian was in an excellent humor, “Fine moonlight,’’ he records. Early the next morning old John Adams, as was his wont, be- gan the day with a letter to his Abigail back in Quincy, in which he faithfully chronicled every im- portant thing that happened, of which he was a part. “Yesterday the greatest Ques- tion was decided, which ever was debated in America,”’ he begins, “and a greater, perhaps, never was or will be decided among men. A Resolution was passed without one dissenting Colony, that these united Colonies ‘are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states.’ ”’ Having thus briefly and suc- cinctly told the story of what happened in the secret sessioa— things leaked out in those days just as they do in these when the Senate holds executive sessions— Abigail's husband turned prophet. “The second day of July, 1775, will be the most memorable Epoca in the History of America,” he jubilates.”’ Did old John Adams get his dates mixed? Not at all. Our independence was actually voted on July 2, but that date has never been accepted, and that day has never. been celebrated. The day we celebrate is the day the Continental Congress muti- lated Jefferson’s immortal Decla- ration of Independence to meet the selfish interests of some of the colonies and the timidity and stupidity of others. As a Na- tion we forgot all about the day for half a century, and if old John Adams had not written Tim- othy Pickering a letter in 1822 giving his vagrant memories of what transpired in that Congress, Thomas Jefferson would not have written to James Madison correct- ing John Adams’ memory, and we might today still be treating the charter of our liberties as a docu- ment instead of popping firecrac*- ers and eating barbecue and lis- tening to dull orations from men who probably never read the Dec- laration. Richard Henry Lee was the oldest member of the Virginia delegation in the Congress, and because of that fact, Jefferson says, he was chosen to offer the resolution on June 7, which, we have seen, was promptly set aside by a vote of 7 to 5. When it came to reducing the griev- ances of the colonies to writing a master hand was needed. Lee's resolution was not original. It came from the Virginia conven- tion, and the genius of George Mason and of Thomas Jefferson and of Patrick Henry are seen in its words. Congress by ballot committee of five men to draft the paper.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY.’ JUNE: 29./) 1980.% HEN the great golden glob- W ule drops from a masthead atop the State, War and Navy Building in Washington each day at noon, the official time is set by the Weather Bureau for the entire United States. Throughout the Nation there is then an automatic regulation of clocks. This precise moment may be the beginning of a business day in San Francisco, but it’s luncheon time in Washington. When you State, willy-nilly, that it’s lunch- eon time in Washington, in the language of a former arbiter of court etiquette, “You've said a mouthful.’ No other city in America has the luncheon habit quite like Washington, the Nation's Capital. When Washington goes to lunch it goes to tions—-from the White House sec- retariat down. It’s really gang warfare on the kitchen. The en- tire downtown section turns out and the whole ceremony is over and done within an hour; from 22 te 1. Now it happens that while Washington is a government city, ihere are several hundred thou- sand civilians, for want of a bet- ier term. within the city confines proper. Because the Government people lead regular lives -have to, per se——these native W ashing- fonians and others engaged in the irades and businesses and profes- sione must regulate their lives accordingly. So, all hands go to lunch at the same time. There are a’ few Bohemians, scattered here and there, who defy all these Gov- ernment conventions and the like, and they are outside the picture; but when 12 o'clock, noon, rolls round each day most all people in Washington, from the President down, start for the luncheon tables. Now. they do not start alone. these Government people, for the one-armed mikes, the long lunch bars and the cafeterias. They go in groups. They go in battalions. When the new Commerce Build- ing is completed in a year some 25,000 people will start together for the luncheon ceremony. On the civilian side Washington goes to lunch on the club system. It has been said by a world traveler who looked over the seene at lunch time in Washing- ton that no other city in the uni- verse offered the same sight. He saw only the half of it. A good newspaper man work- ing around the city some 20 or 30 years, bumping into this club and that, might have some idea of the enormity of this luncheon business in Washington. In no other city are there so many clubs of so many varieties as in Wash- ington. Whatever any other city in America boasts in the way of a club, Washington goes that town one better. If they have the jlurians in the West they have he national headquarters of the Bilurians in Washington. The Bociety of Silurians was organ- ized a year or so ago in New York, a lot of old-time newspaper reporters who get together once in a while and tell intimate, unpublished reminiscences. it Means a luncheon. This, as an Hlustration, gets down to Wash- ington on its way to lunch. When Washingtonians go to lunch they go as representative mational groups—-as Rotarians. as Civitans, as Elks, as Moose. as this, that and the other, and with the expectation that they will be joined at the luncheon tables by out-of-town guests. Out-of-town people being what they are in Washington, a con- stantly floating population, it’s a poor day in the luncheon schedule of any Washington club when some one is not asked to arise and introduce himself as a visiting brother from—well, anywhere from Santa Barbara, Calif... to ‘Aroostook, Me. This again is one of the reasons for this great function in Wash- ington—-the luncheon hour: for at that time any one so minded may meet and mingle with his brothers from the far stretches of the country. Washington is made up of people who come from every State in the Union, and the great commingling in the Nation's Cap- ital is nothing new: but here, at the luncheon hour, the boys who have been in Washington any length: of time meet up with the fellows who have just come in from:.the outskirts. They are jailed with glee, as long , lost lunch in mass forma-_ ton Steps OutTo Lunch When the Ball Drops on‘ the State, War and Navy Building, Washington Attacks cne Eateries in Mass Formation—More Luncheon Clubs Here Than in Any City in America Its Size—In Addi- tion to the Feast of Reason and Flow of Soul, Many Organizations Conduct Splendid Charities and Philanthropies. brothers, as men back from big fight arenas, backed into corners and asked all sorts of questions. It might be that people out in the States are anxious to hear news from Washington, wanting to know the low-down and the -inside of all this governmental rigama- role; but certainly the Washing- tonians are just as anxious to know what's going on in other parts of the country. They get all this information usually at the luncheon hour—fresh news, fresh from the countryside. There are such clubs in Wash- ington as the Wadoodle Club. Now, there probably aren’t many Wadoodles throughout the coun- try, but, nevertheless, the na- tional headquarters of the Wa- doodie Club is in Washington, and once a week the Waédoodle Club goes to luncheon at a down- town hotel. There any member of the Wadoodle Clubs in any other city is permitted to come and break bread with his brother Wadoodlers. They have much to tell, of course, at these meetings, and the brother visiting the city is usually run ragged before the hour is up. That one hour, from noon to 1, is all the time allowed for lunch- eon by any of the clubs. The boys in the Government departments who belong to any of these so- called civilian clubs have difficulty getting there by the time the Pres- ident sounds his luncheon hour warning. Usually, the diners-out make a getaway just about five minutes before the great mass of workers leave the Government buildings. By dint of good sprint- ing they are in their restaurant seats, or on the way to them, when the ceremonies begin. An actual count of these noon- day luncheon clubs in Washington has never been made; nor could be made: but the number ap- roaches the thousand mark. Strange, too, with all the ramifi- cations and variety of ceremony, the form is about the same. The officers have different titles, true; but the rule of rote is much the same for one as for the other. By JOHN J. DALY At 12 o'clock the head man— be he the tail-twister of the Lions, the moulting feather of the Lame Ducks, the pearl diver of the So- cial Oyster Club, or the tree bark of the Woodpeckers—stands sol- emniy in his place. He has his watch in his hand. He is about to announce the time—12 bellis. When the gong sounds—some- times it’s a ship bell, sometimes it’s the thud of an old-fashioned bung-starter on an empty barrel -——the boys scramble for their chairs. When the piece de resistance is ready to serve, just about the time waiters are clearing off the soup plates, the head man-—it might be the warbler of the Tyro- lean Club or the Trunk” of the White Elephants—arises to make an announcement. ‘‘Boys,”” he says, or words to this effect, ‘‘we have with us to- day a singer you all love to hear, one of the sweetest voiced women in the universe, a girl who has appeared here on numerous occa- sions, a little lady you all love— ha, ha—and it now becomes my great pleasure and privilege to introduce one who needs no in- troduction, Miss Mazie Mahaffey, who will sing ‘Meet Me in the Garden,’ by request. Her accom- panist is that old friend of the club, Mistah Sam-u-el Steinway, of whom there is no whomer on a piano.”’ . A great outburst of applause and Miss Mazie Mahaffey mounts the rostrum just back of the head man, where is unfurled, but drooping on its staff, the flag of the club. Snugegling next to this is the Star-Spangled Banner, for Washington is a patriotic town. Mistah Sam-u-el Steinway takes command of the piano, after a twirl of the spinning seat, to see that he fits the instrument, runs his fingers gently over the ivories, mostly out of tune, and away they go; he and Mis. Mazie ripping off ‘“‘Meet Me in the Garden.” Good singers and splendid pi- ano players frequent the luncheon clubs of Washington, but they sel- dom ever get an encore. They re- ceive vociferous applause—and the boys sometimes rise on their chairs to applaud the little lady especialily—but no encores. You see, there isn’t time for encores. The head man is standing there, supervising the applause, and it mustn’t continue over the allotted time; for there is yet more work to be done—more dining, and a speech to come. By the time Miss Marie and Mis- tah Sam have settled in their chairs, and Miss Mazie has pinned the bouquet of flowers to her dress, the meal plates have been cleared away, the waiters have ceased the rumpling noises that accompany the clatter of china, and the head man has another an- nouncement to make. Coffee and dessert are on the way. So this is a good time for the president to make his an- nouncement. In anticipation of that event, some of the boys me- chanically push their chairs back from the tables. An occasional match strikes up, a cigarette is lighted, a pipe, a cigar and the head man resumes his mantle: “Fellow Bomberinoes,” he says, if that is the particular organiza- tion, “while the waiters are out of the room, and while there is this peace and quietude that follows one course and precedes another, I have an announcement to make that will, I am sure, bring forth from you that unstinted approval which each Bomberino carries deep in his heart————” He stops, the headman does, takes his hankerchief from his pocket, mops his brow—all in good suspense and according to the rules of public speaking. He is going to surprise the boys, he hopes, though there are several hundred present who suspect he is going to introduce the speaker of the day—and the speaker of the day is sitting there beside the head- man. Furthermore, the speaker of the day has been announced a week before, at the previous luncheon, and his name carried on all the little postcards that went out just before this lunch- eon; cards urging attendance be- “Fellow Bomberinoes, 1 have an ennouncement to make that will,d]. am sure, bring forth from you that unstinted approval which each Bomberino carries deep in his heart cause “there's going to be a real time at the next gathering.” Over‘and above that, there has been some neighborhood whisper- ing going on since the dinner started. Some of the boys, whe were not present the last time, some who had failed to get their cards, want to know the name of that distinguished gentleman sit- ting up there next to Jimmy, the bolo-thrower of the Bolerinoes. Word, therefore, has gone by whisperings all around the tables —and everybody knows who's who and what's what; yet the bole thrower is going to surprise the Bolerimoes: He does. He comes out flatly with the an- nouncement that they have im their midst mone other than that brilliant intellect, John Wads- worth Worthington, of Walla Walla, the man who has traveled up and down the length and breadth af this country preaching the doctrine of cooperation and the ideals of love amongst the Bo- lerinoes. So John takes his place. He puts hie watch on the table. He knows, and everybody there knows, that this speechmaking must be done within the allotted span—twenty minutes at the out- side. “Brother Bolerinoes,” begins John Wadsworth Worthington, clearing his throat, ‘‘this, indeed, is an unexpected pleasure ms He says that, knowing full well that he was booked for this lunch- eon at least 30 days before, and that whatever expenses he incurs will be charged against the gath- ering before him, who know it, too. It is, however, an unexpect- ed pleasure, and an unexpected pleasure that is interrupted, most rudely, by a procession of waiters coming in with the coffee and cakes. The president, the headmana, the Bolo Thrower of the Bolo- rinoes, arises in his wrath—comes down on the table with a mighty whack, letting loose the full power of his right arm carrying the bolo, or gavel. He thereupon ad- dresses himself to the waiters, those rude waiters, who have been sent in single file by the maitre d’hotel to carry the dessert and the coffee and the cakes. “Waiters!” shouts the Bolo Thrower, and the waiters continue to serve, silently as possible now, while the honored guest, the words~ taken out of his mouth, shifts from one foot to the other and perhaps wonders how long this is going to last; but at last. and alas, the Bolo Thrower throws the fear of God into the hearts of the waiters, and not a man drops a tray. So the Bolo Thrower sits down, the waiters tiptee out of the room, the last one closing the door behind him, and the fire- works of oratory proceed to their fulsome heights. At these luncheons in Wash- ington public speakers from all walks of life appear. United State’ senators, sometimes an am- bassador, congressmen of various degrees of glory, ministers of the gospel, of all religions; advance agents for theatrical troupes, who never fail to put in a plug for their wares; motion picture stars, vaudevillians, stars of the stage, various civic leaders, men and women who have labored in the vineyards of one sort or another, leaders of the Boy and Girl Scout movements, and so on down the line, until, in the course of the years, these luncheon engagements produce, really, a cross section of American thought. That is, if a man had time to attend them all, he might hear, from one speaker or another, enough things to make him acquainted with the diversi- fied complexion of American life. Of course, oh the other hand, there are those who claim that all this is just so much waste effort, so much hokum and bunkum; ‘that no one yet ever learned anything at one of those luncheon parties. Anyway, they provide a moot question—and they are part of Washington life. Washington just wouldn’t be Washington without these 12 o’clock clubs. Twelve o'clock they start and 1 o'clock they end. Immediately following the final word of the speaker the headman gets up and announces that the luncheon is over. There are about ten minutes left now in that precious luncheon hour. Here is where the great scramble takes place. One-half the multitude starts for the hat rack. One-half remains. Of this Continued’ on Page G, Cotumn 4 * “4

THE; WASHINGTON ,POST: SUNDAY... JUNE aE ~~ Siwy 6 We Oe Oe =, OO mY 29.0 19%, DoWild Animals Think ?4>wysaxroans wos DO not believe that any one questions the fact that all animals think to some extent. . perhaps is just a dif- ferent term for thinking; but to my mind it stands for a somewhat higher order of brain work than mere thought. An animal which can assimilate two ide“s or corre- late two happenings so as to de- velop a plan of action based upon both is, so far as I am concerned, upon a higher mental plane than an animal which only thinks and reacts to its emotions of fear or anger. Animals learn by experience. This fact alone is sufficient to es- tablish reasoning power. A buf- falo calf, for instance, which has escaped from a leopard will from that time on be exceptionally alert whenever the smell of leopard drifts to its nostrils. Whether a buffalo’s memory is so good that the scent of leopard recalls a vivid picture of attack, wounds and es- cape even years after, no human can ever know. It may be that that sickening stench merely con- jures up a vague. feeling suffi- ciently acute to cause uneasiness, yet not clear enough to urge flight. This last is more probably the true state of such a buffalo’s mind, because—at least among humans—the tendency is to forget pain and horror. Regardless of the exact degree of memory, how- ever, the buffalo calf learned a lesson it did not forget—namely, that leopards are dangerous crea- tures. On the veldt, wild animals must constantly exercise their reason if they are to survive. Those per- sons who stand in front of ani- mal in the zoological parks and speculate as to how much happier such animals would be if they were free in their native haunts have not the faintest conception of what they are talking about. For wild life is savage life. There is-no safety at any time for any animal. Killers are abroad al- ways. The struggle to obtain sufficient meat, grass and water to maintain life is constant and strenuous. Animals have no char- itable societies to care for the in- digent, no hospitals to nurse sick and wounded, no police to keep order. Among wild animals it is every one for himself. The lions or hyenas, crocodiles or man will catch and kill those which lag be- hind. Leopards, when they have made a kill and eaten their fill, will often, if they can, drag their prey up into a tree. They know only too well that scavengers will gather from miles around and finish off the meat within an hour of the setting of the sun. Lions lie up beside their kills or drag what is left into dense bush. Why? Because of the vultures, which will descend in hordes upon unguarded meat and claw it to pieces in no time at all. Indeed, one of the surest methods of finding a lion, a leopard or a cheetah is to watch the vultures. Once a kill has been made. one of them will see it even though the bird is floating so high in the sky the human eye can scarcely pick it out. Down the bird will come in wide circles. Others of its kind will see and descend also. If the killer is feeding, the vul- tures will perch in the neighbor- ing trees and wait like ghouls. Because of these birds and the innumerable four-footed carrion feeders, no killer will leave its meat unless frightened away or fully satiated. Would’ you call such actions instinctive? Or are they the result of bitter lessons learned by hungry animals returning to their kills only to find them eaten by the scavengers of the veldt? If they are the result of experience, are they not then clear examples of reasoning powers in animals? Have not the killers connected cause and effect and drawn con- clusions upon which they have acted? This discussion brings to mind the age-old myth of the graveyard of the elephants. Supposedly there is some hidden spot, one in India and one in Africa, to which all elephants travel when they know that their span of life is nearing an end. The story is a tribute to the sagacity of elephants, but un- fortunately it is not true. Were there any such place it would be not only the burying ground of elephants but the happy feasting ground of all the carrion eaters, alist. including lions, leopards, crocodiles, jackals, hyenas, chee- tahs, the, innumerable small eats, Yes! Says Experienced Hunter—They Learn From Observation, Communicate, and Use Co- operative Strategy. Mr. Hubbard, with. wife and family, breaking in elephants. ants, vultures and eagles. Every type of animal, save only the grass eaters, would congregate in hundreds and feast and fight and kill and scream and roar. The spot would be a veritable Babel of animals. Nor would man be lacking. For the natives would see the vultures and find the spot. They would dare it for the ivory. White men would buy the tusks and question the black men, and eventually the secret would. leak out. Then, indeed, the burying ground would be desecrated, for the crack of rifles would disperse the crowd of scavengers and be- fore long no ivory would remain. The Ancoming élephants would be shot before they reached their goal,-and this mythical last rest- ing place would be wiped out. As a matter of fact, in a much smaller way this is exactly what happens when an elephant dies of old age or accident. Vultures and other scavengers find the body either through sight or smell. Na- tive tribesmen do the same. With- in 48 hours little is left of such a fallen giant save the largest bones, which are useless to man and strong enough to defy even the jaws of the hyenas. It is because so little remains that few elephant skeletons are found. Hunters not infrequently have seen lions walking among herds of antelope or zebra without caus- ing a panic. Every such happening can be explained by the obvious fact that the lion was full fed. But how did these antelope know that? When their dreaded enemy suddenly appeared among them walking unconcerned in daylight, how did they know that at this particular time the “jn was inof- fensive? Did they see, as the hu- man observers saw, that the stom- ach of the lion was heavy with food? Or was there some other indication which even professional hunters did not see or understand but which was evident to the antelope? The African buffalo has acquired a reputation for aggressiveness which is surpassed by few other big game animals. Particularly is the buffalo feared when wounded, for then it resorts to tricks which have brought death or mauling to many hunters. A mortally wound- ed or even badly hurt buffalo— and this is true of elephants also —will turn out from the herd with which it has been running and travel by itself. Once alone it will run a varying distance, depending upon the severity of its hurt. Eventually it will turn and, cir- cling, either cOme back close to its The lion’s rear, growl, moan and chirp all have wionnlage of their own. outward tracks or stand hidden to one side of its spoor. Hunters tracking carefully with their eyes on the ground follow the blood be- spattered trail. They round an anthill, cross a patch of long grass, and whang! The buffalo charges upon them from an unexpected di- rection and at very close quarters. Only an exceptionally experienced hunter or a very fast shot can ex- tricate himself from such a pre- dicament. Herds of game are nearly al- ways led by a female animal. Pos- sibly it is because old males gen- erally leave the herds and run by themselves or in company with one or two other bulls. The zebra and the smaller antelopes are the exceptions so far as separation of old males is concerned. Before Il began to notice this fact I had al- ways supposed that the leader of a herd was the biggest and strong- est male, that he held this rank by virtue of his fighting ability. How the leader is chosen, or how the leader becomes a leader——-for she is not chosen in the sense that the members of the herd ballot—ts « complete mystery. Nevertheless, beyond all question, there is one animal in every herd which acts as a focusing point for all herd movement. Birds play an important part in the lives of wild animals. There are five birds which I have found most annoying to me as a hunter, and when watching game from concealment I have noticed that it is the same birds to which game itself pays the most attention. At night and early in the morn- ing and late in the evening, plover are the sentries. Grazing animals will look up at a plover’s call and stand listening for any sound which might betray the animal which startled the bird. It is ex- tremely interesting to speculate upon how the animals came to realize that birds can give warn- ings. Ido not believe that a ze- bra, for instance, definitely. thinks, ‘‘Ha, a plover has shriek- ed. I wonder if it is a lion that scared it.’ But the abrupt call is startling, and because of its very suddenness commands attention. Ducks, cranes, ibis and smaller birds feeding about water holes convey much information by their attitudes to game stand- ing in the shelter of trees, decid- ing whether or not it is safe to approach the water. It is very seldom that animals approach water from any direction save up or cross wind. When they do it is because they have seen others of their kind already there or be- cause of the birds. Unfortunately, I have never seen a lion come to water. Whether birds differen- tiate in any manner between ¢car- nivorous animals and grass eaters I do not know. The honey guide with its con- tinual chirping conversation, and the go-away bird act as sentinels just as the plover. Tick birds are other warners of danger. These five are the most noticegble sen- tries, but guinea fowls, egrets and many others are a_ continual source of annoyance to hunters. I have dwelt somewhat at length on this point because it seems to me that the connection which an animal sees between the sudden fluttering or call of a bird and danger is an illustration of reasoning power in wild animals. You can form your conclusions and agree or disagree as you see fit. It must be conceded, however, that animals do learn from ex- perience. That is one essential factor in my deductions.

To the initiated the only surprise is the fact of ite leaking out. So far the project has been known Dniy to a very few people of the Bort who are not much given to talking publicly. The importance of this royal engagement can be realized only ‘when one understands the very complicated family affairs of Archduke Otto's mother; the un- fortunate Zita, former Empress of Austria-Hungary, who has been pursued by bad luck from the very hour of her marriage. A daughter of the late Duke Robert of Parma, and very proud ef her Bourbon blood, which she Ronsidered far superior to that of the Hapsbures, Zita was not wise enough to hide the preference from her husband's Austrian rela- tives or from the Viennese aris- tocracy. She did not make friends easily, and those she made all be- longed to the Hungarian nobility. It was known that she had been most unhappy when the World War broke out, and this was at- tributed to her French sympa- thies. The matter was brought to the notice of the old Emperor Francis Joseph, who spoke to her in bitter terms and compelled her, while her husband was away at the front, to live in the imperial palace, Schonbrunn, under his im- mediate surveillance. All her let- ters were opened and she was for- bidden to open her mouth in ref- erence to the war. Even her visits to her mother, the widowed Duchess of Parma, were curtailed. Altogether, poor Zita had a hard time of it until the aged emperor died, when suddenly she became the ranking first lady of the land. This was her hour of triumph. But she did not use her oppor- tunity diplomatically. In fact, she contrived to earn for herself even more enemies. In Vienna they be- gan to call her openly “the Ital- jan,’’ just as in years gone by the French had called Marie Antoin- @tte “the Austrian.”” But the young empress did not mind that. She loved her husband, knew her- pelf to be beloved by him, and pincerely wished prosperity for the Bmpire over which he now reigned.

Her conduct was so tactful that she was given more and more liberty of move- ment. When her younger brother, Prince Xavier of Bourbon Parma, was married to Mile. de Bourbon- Busset, the empress met with a hearty response from the French government when she asked per- mission to attend the wedding. She was received in France with ali the honors due‘her imperial rank. But, tactful as ever, she merely witnessed the marriage ceremony, and immediately after returned to Spain. All this bore fruit. The em- press won influential friends, the more so because her brothers also were highly esteemed every- where, and had made brilliant marriages—one of them, Prince Felix of Bourbon Parma, being the consort of the Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxemburg. Her first cousin was Elizabeth, Queen of the Belgians, and it was said to have been the latter’s {dea to have Zita bring her sons to Bel- gium to complete their studies at the University of Louvain. The queen helped the former empress to establish a modest home in Brussels, and they became warm friends. Little by little Zita’s position improved, even from the material point of view, as, thanks to influences brought to bear in the right quarters, a good deal of her husband’s property in Austria, as well as in Hungary, was re- turned to her. After years of penury she found herself again in possession of a comfortable in- come. Meanwhile, things in Hungary also had changed a bit. The sentiment of foreign governments Yegarding the possibility of mon- archist restoration in that country also underwent a transformation, Everybody was agreed that the rule of the regent, Admiral Horthy, had been successful and wise; still, he represented only a transition, and should he die or resign things might become chaotic unless some provision were made to meet such a con- tingency. Horthy himself was not adverse to putting young Otto upon the Hungarian throne, now that he had become of age, and somehow the Hungarian aristocracy, which formerly had been very bitter against the re- gent, began to look upon him with different eyes. His daugh- ter’s engagement to Count KarolyT (a cousin of the Count Michael Karolyi, who had visited the United States, &nd who had been President of the short-lived Hun- garian Republic) had been favor- ebly regarded. Altogether, the political situation in Hungary was improving. The only dark spot on the horizon was the open hos tility of the Roumanian and Jugo- slav governments. This fact about which no one spoke, but which everybody knew, had aroused apprehensions, nota- bly of Mussolini, who considered it as absolutely detrimental to Italian interests. This opinion was shared by King Albert of Belgium, whose sympathies were on the Italian side since his daughter’s marriage with the future King of Italy. And King Albert is one of those clever rulers who usually manage to make their persona) views prevail. In addition he is one of the most tactful of men, and has never been known to utter a useless word. In the course of his conversations with both King Victor Emmafittel and Mussolini, he contrived to put in a few. re- marks concerning the Empress Zita and her intelligent and hand- some boy, Otto, declaring that the latter had won golden opinions at Louvain on account of his demo- cratic behavior, his politeness and urbanity; and he added that any girl the young archduke would marry would be a lucky one in- deed. Here versions vary. Some say that Mussolini, hearing these praises awarded to the youthful Hungarian pretender, exclaimed, “What a fine husband he would make for Princess Maria!” while others say that it was King Victor Emmanuel who remarked that if Otto had been sitting on the Hun- garian throne he would be an eligible husband for one of his daughters! All this however, is but hearsay. What is not hearsay, but actual fact, is that there has been some serious talk of the pos- sibility of Princess Maria of Savoy becoming a Queen of Hungary should Hungary ever call back as its monarch the son and heir of the unhappy Emperor Charles. Such an alliance would fit in with Italian politics, which are inter- ested in keeping on good terms with the Hungarian government, and in cheeking Jugoslav and Rouw- manian ambitions. Princess Maria of Savoy has been called the prettiest of the daughters of King Victor Em- manuel and Queen Helena of Italy. She is also clever and ac complished, spéaking several lan- guages fluently; and by a curious coincidence—if it be a coinct- dence—she has lately taken to studying Hungarian. Prince Ote- to also is an excellent linguist, as well as a decidedly handsome youth. They would make a charm- ing pair. There is no denying that many important personages in Europe are in sympathy with the idea of their marriage. Whether or not it will ever materialize is another matter: but it is significant that the story has been allowed to leak out in the press, which it never would have done if the parties in- terested had not wished to see what reaction such news would produce in Italy and in Hungary, as well as throughout Europe in general.

If I were to start again in this busi- ness, no one would ever get a chance to “pin the crown” on me. No, sir! I would be glad to be a leading man; but to feature me in box-car letters—never! One of the many disadvantages of being a star is that it brings about a situation of the little-old- man-of-the-sea order. Once the title is fastened upon you it clings like grim death. You just can’t get rid of it. It puts youon a pedestal and makes you stay there. And it limits your activi- ties in a very definite and not always desirable manner. Mind you, now, I have enough of the natural egotism of man to have enjoyed the normal perqui- sites of a star. A player always likes recognition, and you assured- ly get plenty of that as a film star, And there is a certain pleasure to be had, at first, in the snappy serv- ice you get in hotels, at the tai- lor’s, on dining cars, &c. Likewise, many, many sincere letters come from fans expressing sentiments about your work which makes you very happy. And I'll admit freely that I have never gotten over he thrill I feel every time I pass a theater marquee on which my name is flashing in big lighted letters. But in spite of all this I still in- sist that the disadvantages of star- dom far outweigh its advantages. I tell you quite frankly that if any climbing youngster in the film colony comes to me for ad- vice as to whether or not to accept an opportunity to star, my answer will be emphatically “No!” I know full well, of course, that such advice will never be taken. Afly youngster whom I might so address would thank me politely , and then go straight to the office where pen and ink awaited his signature to the document which would raise him to the “glory seats” of filmdom.

Whereupon Jefferson says: “The clause too, reprobating the enslaving of inhabitants of ‘Africa, was struck out in com- plaisance to South Carolina and Georgia, who had never attempt- ed to restrain the importation of slaves, and who, on the contrary, still wished to continue it. Our Northern brethren also, I believe, felt a little tender under those censures; for tho’ their people have very few slaves themselves yet they had been pretty consid- erable carriers of them to others.” “Congress cut off about a quar- | ter part of it, as I expected they would,” Adams wrote Pickering, “but they obliterated some of the best of it and left all that was ex- ceptionable, if anything in it was. I have long wondered that the original draft has not been »oub- lished. I suppose the reason is the vehement Philippic against Negro Slavery.” It is no wonder that Ben Franklin, perceiving that Jeffer- son “was not insensible to these mutilations,”” said to him: “I have made it a rule, whenever in my power, to avoid becoming the draftsman of papers to be re- viewed by a public body.” He had learned that lesson from a journeyman hatmaker in his boy- hood.

It’s Terribly Monotonous Up There On the Top With Nothing to Look Forward to But Failure. to anybody who is about to be made a star, or who looks long- ingly at the exalted (7) position in filmdom. The only person who is quali- fied to know that stardom is the bunk is one who has been there! Now, of course, the great ceri- tral argument raised to those who are made stars is that it means more money for them. But does it? I know of one leading man who started in the game at the same time I did. He has stead- fastly refused to let any one make him a star. He has been content to appear in support of feminine celebrities. And today he has a nice fortune, and his nerves are quiet and normal, where mine have more than once gone on édge under the stress and strain of star- dom. Further, he has had eight far happier years than I. He has had a wide variety of parts, while I have been restricted by the de- mands of the theater owners to a marrow circle of roles, with only a few exceptions. When this man started as a leading man, about four of us, all his friends, were made stars. The four of us have had varying suc- cess. But an investigation of his record shows that his percentage of flops, semifailures, has been far less than ours. His prestige is absolutely unimpaired. Among the stars I don’t know one who doesn’t worry terribly if even a single picture goes bad. It is an axiom among stars that “Have three bad pictures in a row and you're out.” But my friend has several flops on his list that came in consecutive order, and yet they haven't damned him in the least, although they definitely hurt the feminine star whom he supported. The selection of my friend as a leading man in a picture support- — ——S——_SSST = SSSES!LLLhLhh>S=S=S=SSSS = A ing a star fs studio business only. That is, # it is a part suited to him he is selected for it by the director. if he himself doesn’t like it he can ask for a transfer. A capable leading man usually has a choice of several roles at a time, from which he takes the part he thinks he would best en- joy. He might be a French apache in one picture, a comedian in the next and Hamlet in his third pro- duction. He is able to keep broad in his work, to change and shift mm order to keep out ofarut. But what happens in the case of a star? The minute you are made a star They straggled back one by one. Thomas McKean, of Delaware, was the last signer. He probably signed in October, have been later It has been related, and has be- come a part of history, that when the weaithy Charles Carroll, of Maryland, attached his name to the paper, one of his fellow rebels remarked: “There is another Charles Carroll in Maryland. How will King George know which one to hang if this rebellion fails?” Whereupon he added to his name “of Carroliton.” That, too, we are forced to say, is a fiction, for the historic fact is that on his return to Maryland from France in 1765, this last survivor of the signers began to sign his name as it is on the Declaration and never varied from it to the end of his life, Sentiment in the Congress was not all favorable to the Declara- tion, even after it was signed. Our best witness to this is John Adams, who in a letter to William Plumer, dated Quincy, March 28, 1813, said: “As I could not see their hearts, it would be hard for me to say they did not approve it; but as far as I could penetrate the intricate, internal foldings of their souls, I then believed, and have not since altered my %pin- ion, that there were several who signed with regrets, and several others with many doubts and much lukewarmness.”’ We love to think that there was a spontaneous demand not only in the country but among the dele- gates for independence; that our forefathers were just r’aring to take King George by the netk aud wring his tyrannical old head of. But, this, alas, is far from the truth. Omce more we go to our second President for the record. “The measure had been upon the market for months,”’ he says, “and obstinately opposed from day to day. Majorities were con- against it. For many days the majority depended upon Mr. Hewes of North Carolina.”’ Never before had one man such power over the life and liberty ‘of a nation. or it might, you suffer immediately from the very picture that brought your success. You are labeled for all time thereafter. And this suffering is prolonged and intensified by the glaring spotlight of world public- ity which is focused upon you. I have played all sorts of roles in my time, and far more serious ones than comic. In fact, my own personal preference is for the so- called straight drama role: the part with a human and natural characterization that is bound only by the interpretative limits of the actor himself. But my first success was a rapid- fire comedy in which I leaped around, ‘“‘mugged” and had a gen- eral good time. Well, I enjoy that kind of picture when it is mixed in with others, but I dislike having to do nothing else but! And after three or four years of being a star in an unbroken succession of this kind of story I felt something like the man who tried to live for a year on nothing but limburger sandwiches. edly is tasty, occasionally, but can you imagine it as a steady diet? Having to eat limburger without a break is one of the definite pen- alties of achieving stardom, As soon as you become a star the whole responsibility of the success or failure of the entire pic- ture in which you are featured is cascaded upon your shoulders; that 1%, so far as the public is con- cerned. The directors and the writers have their part, certainly, and I enjoy as much as they do the fruits of success. But in case of a flop, there is no division of blame! The poor old star gets it all. Right now I am playing my first nonstar role in many years “While a member, was speaking, and reading docu- one cay, ments from all the Colonies, to prove that the public opinion, the general sense of all, was in favor of the measure, when he came to North Carolina and produced let- ters and public proceedings which demonstrated that the majority of that Colony were in favor of it, Mr. Hewes, who had hitherto constantly voted against it, start- ed suddenly upright, and lifting his hands to Heaven, as if he had been in a trance; cried out: ‘It is done! and I will abide by it.’ ”’ So carried away was the old fighter by that scene that it was never effaced from his memory. “I would give more for a perfect painting of the terror and horror upon the faces of the old. majority at that critical moment,” he de- clared 40 years later, “than for the best piece of Raphael.” That was no time to decide such a question by the waverire vote of one man, so it ““was elud- ed by an immediate motion for adjournment.’’ Thomas Jefferson did not real- ize until pear the end of his !ong life that he had penned an im- mortal document. John Adams placed all the emphasis, as we have seen, on the VOTE of July 2, and paid scant attention to the Declaration itself. In one of his letters to Abigail he complained that the ringing of the bells far into the night of July 8th, kept him awake. This was the day Philadelphia first learned of the action taken July 2 and 4. We now come to the curious part of the history of this docu- ment. In 1810 a Government clerk named William P. Gardner conceived the idea of publishing a decorative copy of the Declara- tion, and had an engraver make sketches ‘or it, which he showed to Jefferson in 1813. They moved very slowly in those simple days. The engraver seeing that nothing was done about the matter. car- ried the scheme to John Binns, a Philadelphia publisher, who, in 1816, advertised that he would publish an engraved copy of the Limburger undoubt-. 7 and I never was happier in my life. I refer to my part in Cecil B. De Mille’s production, ‘Madame Satan."’ It's the kind of thing I've been trying to do ever since the first two years | was a star. But always they came back to me with: “Denny, the theaters say their people are used to you in come- dies, we've just got to give them to them.” Well, what was my answer? Don’t be silly—I took the easiest way out, of course. I made some more starring comedies. more or less like the very first one I turned out. But I can’t say I was happy in doing it. I was making money, of course, but I wasn’t having very much opportunity to @o all the things I wanted to do fm act- ing. Yon see what I meart by referring to stardom as being a little old man of the sea. However, please don't consider me as critical of the attitude of the public and the theaters which bring about this condition. I can well appretidte that having been pleased once, your theater patron is apt to ask his local theater manager for “some more of thé same And this request, of course, goes back to only ong source, the person whom the public helds responsible — the star. I'll return to star vehicles again after “‘Madam Satan,” and I'll probably continue to star until I'm palpably too old. But I hope there'll be a lot of other non- starring opportunities like that with De Mille. For now, when I go back to having my name billed above the title of the play, maybe my short break out of stardom will alter public opinion and make it possible for me to play a slight- ly different kind of role. Many people may think that I shouldn’t complain of a career that has brought me wealth and success. Others, however, will get my point. Anything that cramps the style or sets back the fancy in- terferes with complete happiness. (Copyright. 1930.) Declaration. He, too, delayed in bringing out His copy. In the meanwhile, in 1817, Benjamin Owen Tyler moved from New York to Washington, and here for the first time he saw the original Jefferson draft that was signed by members of the Continental Congress. He had a skilled penman make a copy, and duplicate. the signatures, which Secretary of State Richard Rush examined and pronounced “curiously exact imitations.’’ The next year Tyler issued a number of copies of this publication; whereupon Binns made an as« sault upon him. Gardner joined forces with Tyler and the war of words that ensued attracted na- tional attention, and many of that generation for the first time heard of the Declaration of In- dependence. There had been few if any Fourth of July celebrations up to 1823 when Timothy Pickering, armed with his letter from John Adams, made several statements that aroused the ire of Jefferson, and this attracted attention anew to the declaration and was really the beginning of the annual cus- tom of celebrating Independence Day. John Quincy Adams took a hand in the matter, and in 1823 had a facsimile of the document made. May 24, 1824, Congress ordered 200 copies of this fac- simile engraved and judiciously distributed over the country. two copies being sent to each surviv- ing signer. Jefferson's copies were on the finest parchment. Congress got only 20 copies. It was careful with the public purse then. To bring this marrative to a close. for 100 years the declara- tion had no permanent home. It moved through ten cities and five States, and three times was hur- riedly carried off to escape cap-<- ture or destruction. For 36 years it rested in the Patent Office, and for 44 years in the Department of State.

I take sevumteem cents fer ‘iss here turkle.”’ “T'll buy him,” said Penrod eagerly. “I'll give you the seven- teen cents for him.’ “You got ‘at money?’ was a little skeptical. *‘No; but I will have when papa comes home at noon. I can get him to give it to me.’ He smiled reassuringly and added, ‘‘Easy!”’ ‘You kin?”’ “Yes. And, look here, Her- man; don’t you go and cut your ‘nitials on this turtle. Herman, because he'll be my turtle soon as I pay you for him, and I don't want anybody else’s ‘nitials on any turtle of mine except my own Herman ’nitials. You won't cut yours on him, will you?’’ “Tell you whut I do,” said Herman: “I wait till six o'clock, ’s even.’ ‘F you pay me down "at sevumteem cents ‘fo ‘six *clock’s even,’ he ain’ go’ to have nuff’m ’tall cut on him.

Don’t you worry!” And the contract Sag» compre hended by both the party of the first part and the party of the second part, Herman proceeded homeward with the property under consideration, while Penrod continued his walk in the alley. His vision roamed the future; he saw the little turtle growing year by year, the initials, P.5S., growing with him. A little before the hour for lunch, he slid over the back fence, and made his way into the house without being noticed by Ronald, who, squirt-gun tm hand, was treacherously approaching Duke in the front yard. Penrod ascend- ed to his father’s room and found both his parents there, engaged in conversation. “Papa,”’ he began at once, “I'd like you to please give me seven- teen cents.”’ ‘Would you?’ Mr. Schofield re- turned unenthusiastically. “Yes, Papa, please.’’ “That's a strange coincidence,” said the father. “I’ve just been wishing some one would give me seventeen thousand dollars; but I don’t believe anybody will.” “Papa, please give me seven- teen cents.’”’ "Te, ‘‘Papa— y Mrs. Schofield “What do you cents for?’’ “To buy a turtle.” ‘“‘A what?’ Mr. Schofield in- quired. “That colored boy Herman’s got-the finest turtle I ever did see,”’ Penrod explained. “He traded some gvod kindling-wood and a nice board and a nice knife- blade to Cubena Howliss for it, and the board was worth ten cents, and the knife-blade was worth five cents, and the wood was worth two cents, and that makes seventeen cents. He won't take a cent under seventeen cents for the turtle.” Mr. Schofield had begun to wear a look of irritation. ‘“‘He won't?” he inquired dangerously. “No. sir: and | do want that turtle.’’ ‘Well, you can’t have it. It’s time you learned you can’t spend money idiotically, no matter how much or how little. You can find all the turtles you want, anyhow.” “TI never did find a turtle in my life,’ Penrod asserted stoutly, “except one timé at.a pichic, and vou made me put it back in the creek.’ His tone became more in- sistent. “Papa. please give me seventeen cents.”’ Mr. Schofield raised his voice “Didn't I tell you you couldn't have it?’’ But now Penrod’s tone became interrupted. want seventeen almost excruciatingly plaintive. ‘“‘Papa, please give me seventeen cents! That's all I want you to do. Can't you just give me seven- teen cents?’’ “No!” ‘**‘Pop-puh!”"’ “No!” ‘“‘Pop-puh!”’ “Didn't you hear what I said?” ‘‘Papa, please, please, please Mr. Schofield sent a _ sharp glance at his wife, who had begun to look serious beyond her wont. “What's the matter with him?’’ Before Mrs. Schofield could ex- press an opinion, Penrod inter- vened. He uttered a sudden howl: a passion took possession of him. “Pop-puh!” he bleated. “I got to get that turtle! I haf to have seventeen What harm [if cents! Uff WIL” Gy, would it do you for me to have that turtle? You don’t want me to have a nice time with that turtle! You don’t! Oh, pape-oh! pop-puh-oh! please! Pleas e, please.” Mr. Schofield rushed upon his son. By the shoulders he caught Penrod, and the latter found it impossible to continue his imita- tion, one all the more remarkable because it was only partially a conscious imitation. Most of it was instinctive. His father shook him. “By George, he’s caught it!" And he impelled the unfortunate Penrod toward a door that Mrs. Schofield sorrowfully opened, in response to a grim command from her hus- band. It was the door of a drear and dark closet, utterly without resources to aid an inmate in passing the time. “You stay in there till you get over it!’’ Mr. Schofield said, as he closed this painful door. Then he turned to his wife. “By George, we want to cure him of that, right at the start! We don't want to be driven as crazy as poor cousin Henry.” Penrod was released by Mrs. Schofield subsequent to his fath- er’s departure after lunch. He was allowed to partake of some chilled remains of the meal but informed of a decree that he should curtail his activities until 4 o'clock; he was to stay indoors until that hour. Thereafter, he could go out; but not until the next day outside the yard. And upon this additional sentence, he spake not, yet his eyes were fierce and almost unbearable. He underwent his penalties to the full, enigmatically looking out of windows most of the long, hor- rid time, his expression merely concentrating a little when across his field of vision Ronald went sweeping over the lawn, in fur- ther squirt-gun persecutions of Duke. But at eight seconds after 4 o'clock, Penrod threw open the rear doors of the stable and gazed earnestly at the abode of Herman across the alley. “Yay, Herman!’ Penrod shout- ed. Herman appeared. —‘Herman’ I can’t come out. iI got to stay in our yard till to- morrow: but the stable’s just ‘the same as the yard. Where's that _, turtie?™ Herman's air was morbid: in- juries lay heavy upon him. ““You kin’ keep ‘at sevumteem cents,”’ he said. ‘“Hain’t no turkle!” I laid him down nice in dish-pan. Pappy sen’ me to drug sto’ to git him some ‘at’ brain-medicine: mammy tuck ’at turkle an’ frew him in ash-pile. Man come ‘long; clean up ash-pile. Tuck an’ tuck ‘at turkle an’ done ca’y him off!

Go on keep you’ sevumteem cents; I ain’t got no turkle!’”’ Penrod sighed. “I only want- ed to look at him, anyway. Her- man. I couldn’t get the seventeen cents. I tried but—but I couldn't fix it.’’ “Well, mammy done fix my turkle,” the colored boy said, withdrawing gloomily. CHAPTER 13.

Then a pleasant aroma came slenderly upon the air, warm and spicy, arousing some interest in the dejected boy; and he follow- ed it to its source in the kitchen, “G’wan away!” said Della. “Thim little cakes is f’r dinner, an’ if yer pa eats 'em the way he use’ly does, th’r ‘ain't enough to go round.” ‘ “Oh, just one, Della!”’ Penrod pleaded. The little cakes were fat brown little cakes, not flat cookies. ‘‘Can’t I have just one?” “If I give you wan, will you eat it an” g’wan away?’’ “Honest!” Della gave him one. “Well, keep yer word f'’r wanst!’’ she said. Penrod lifted the cake toward his mouth, and;as he did so. a yelp from Duke was heard outside the kitchen window, followed by the shrill triumphant cry of Ron- ald. Then, at this sound, re- minder of the cause of all his woes, Penrod’s hand, holding the cake, paused. A _ strange look came upon the face of Penrod. “Well, if yer goin’ to eat it, why don’t you eat it an’ g’wa away?’ Della inquired. | “Guess I—I'll wait,” Penrod muttered hastily, and, with the cake intact, walked quickly out of the kitchen and into the dining room. Here, engaged in a delicate semi-chemical operation, with the sideboard as laboratory, he re- mained not more than seven busy minutes, and when he issued forth the cake was still apparently in- tact; certainly he had not taken a bite of it. He went out into the yard and displayed himself before Ronald. ‘“‘Hey, Penrod!”* cried the small visitor. “Watch me! I've learn- ed how [I can get Duke so mad with my little gun he almost bites himself!’’ “I don’t care anything about your ole gun,”’ Penrod said lan- guidly. “I got sumpthing better to think about.”’ “What you got?” Penrod carelessly displayed the cake, gazed absently skyward, opened his mouth, and, with thumb and forefinger, delicately lifted the cake toward the orifice. Ronald’s bright, eyes emitted a urposeful a he’.

I’m goin’ to take that cake away from you or break my neck!” To settle this point and insure the latter alternative, Ronald, even in the act of ducking under Penrod’s clumsily reaching arm, opened his mouth to its capacity, plunged the whole cake therein and with one great masticatory action attempted to swallow the thing in the forceful manner of an anaconda. He did not succeed... Instead, he uttered a dreadful cry; his eyes protruded, and, after a pe- riod of terrible activity, he turn- ed the sdquirt-gun straight into his mouth and there discharged it. This seeming but to increase his distress, he rushed, bellowing to the hydrant and ardently ap- plied his mouth thereto. Greater suffering finally con- vinced him that water was. not the remedy for his ailment, and he tried great drafts of air taken between heroic gasps. Then, re- lieved no more by air than by water, he gesticulated insanely for a time and finally became coher- ent in one vociferous word. “Pop-puh!’ | He ran to the house, and the kitchen door slammed behind him; but still from the interior could be heard his searching ap- peals to his- parent. Penrod stood listening for a few moments, while a better and a nobler expression shed a radiance upon his simple features; it was the look that comes to one who, after great turbulence. finds peace in his own soul. Nevertheless, there slowly penetrated an apprehension that the authorities might vcon- sider that he had gone too far, and he sought seclusion in the disused hayloft of the stable. ‘ He returned to the house un- ostentatiously at dusk, softly ascending by the rear stairs to his own room. But his mother had heard him, and she came in. The faded light of a western window revealed a small. meek form, sit- ting with folded hands.

He came in screaming, and he want- ed us to send for the doctor, but his papa wouldn’t. Then he in- sisted on being put to bed. . What did you do to him? “T didn’t do anything.” *“Penrod!’’ She spoke warn- ingly. ‘“‘No’m: I didn't. _I had a cake and I just put a spoonful of red pepper and a little tabasco in the middie of it, and———”’ ‘‘And you gave such a horrible thing as that to ez ‘‘No’m. He came and grabbed it away from me, and ate it up before I could stop him!”’ Mrs. Schofield shook her head sorrowfully. ‘“‘We knew it must have been pepper,” she_ said, ‘‘Penrod, I don’t know what your father means to do to you.” However, just at this moment, Mr. Passloe and Mr. Schofield passed through the hall. “I was looking out of the window,’’ Pen- rod and his mother heard Mr. Passloe say, ‘“‘and I saw Ronald snatch it out of Penrod’s hand. Served him right; he has a dis- gysting. trick of snatching.’’ ‘“Isthe still suffering a little?” ‘asked’ Mr. Schofield, and no one could have mistaken the hopeful- ness in his voice for anything else. “‘Oh, I think he’s convalescent.” There came a smothéred laugh from each of these gentlemen; they seemed to be in the best of spirits, indeed. And then, as they were heard descending the stairs, Mrs. Schofield turned to Penrod with a last attempt to preserve her severity. ‘‘Penrod, you did a very dangerous thing to let poor little Ronald eat “IT didn’t ‘let’ him.”’ ‘“‘He’s a very nice little boy,”’ she said. ‘“‘It was a shame!’’ But a strange thing happened as she was speaking. Her words and her expression were at com- plete variance. Penrod perceived that she could not speak of poor little Ronald’s sufferings without smiling. The next day at noon Penrod came from church, accompanying his mother and sister, and walk- ing sedately, pleased to be wear- ing an entirely new straw hat that was circled with a blue and white ribbon. Little Ronald sat between Mr. Passloe and Mr. Schofield upon the veranda and without apparent emotion watch- ed the arrival of the small party from church; but after a moment he got up and quietly followed Penrod into the hall. “‘Let me try on that new hat to see if it’d fit me?” he said, in a tone almost respectful. “Will you, Penrod?’’ a | “No, Iwill not,” Penrod re- turned promptly, and, as he put the new hat upon the hall table, he added with severity, ‘‘you [et that hat alone!’ : “Of course, if you say so,” the little cousin said, curiously meek. “Penrod, what’s it mean out on that ole horness-closet: in the stable where it’s painted up ‘George B. Jashber’ and, all that stuff?”’ ‘“‘Never- mind! ¥eu your own affairs.”’ “All right,’’ Ronald said thoughtfully. “I guess you got the paint for it from those cans in the woodshed, didn’t you, Pen- rod?”’ “You ‘tend to ‘tend to your own af- wu

I. guess maybe after I’m gone away you'll be sorry you played that trick on me and made me sick yesterday, won't you, Penrod? Maybe sumpthing ‘ll happen that'll make you feel sorry about that.”’ He spoke so gently that Penrod almost felt a pang of reniorse; Ronald’s meekness perplexed him, and so did the little boy’s. well- behaved’ silence at luncheon, Afterward, when a taxicab came to take the visitors away, Ronald could not be found immediately and failed to respond even when impatient calls for him resounded through tke house; however, he made his appearance rather sud- denly, running from the back yard where he had gone, he said, “To say good-by to Duke.” Then, having expressed his farewells courteously to all the members of the Schofield family, he followed his father into the taxicab and drove away, with a final gesture that strikingly nullified the good impression he had just begun to make. Leaning from the open window of-the taxicab, with his thumb to his nose and spread fingers wiggling, he tauntingly and insultingly squealed. ‘Yah! Yah! Yah!” over and over until thé vehicle passed out of hearing. CHAPTER 14. Ronald's Last Trick. OMETHING triumphant in lit- tle Ronald’s departing cry brought misgiving to the heart of his boy cousin, and Penrod re- membered little Ronald’s interest in the new straw hat. The hat was not upon the hall table where it had been left, nor did a search of the house-reveal its where- abouts; but Penrod had a fatal premonition when he discovered Duke in the back yard trying to remove a variegated coat of paint by roliing himselfpassionately in the grass. The new hat was in the woodshed, and only a glance at it was needed to show that the paint upon Duke had been little Ronald's mere afterthought. Pen- rod lifted the wreck upon the point of a stick, carried it round the house to the veranda where he found his father and mother, lodged a formal but indignant protest against the vandalism of the recent guest, and received some sympathy. Then he return- ed gloomily to the back yard, left the ruined hat in the woodshed, and went to seek Sam Williams. Sam was not at home, and Pen- rod returned by way of the alley. Upon the doorstep of a humble cottage that faced the Schofields’ stable Herman sat sleepily. “Hey, whi’ boy,” he said in a drowsy voice. Penrod stopped for converse. “Where’s Verman?” “Verman way down in Ten- nasee’ cause Granmammy up an’ tuck sick, an’ Mammy gone to take keer of her an’ tucken Ver- . man along wif her. “What you want o’ Verman?”’ “Well ”" Penrod said, “I kind of wanted both of you, may- be. I was thinkin’ about tellin’ you about it last week; but I had a little cousin visitin’ me that made a lot o’ trouble around here and’s goin’ to grow up to be probably the worst crook in the United States, I expeck. Anyhow, I guess there’s mighty few crooks that could behave any worse than . vinnsui IUvtTHNNN THU 0A EA HAL MT ie ee PD ow a 9 A A QUE ACPA UUM LTN HLH To he did. It was sumpthing. like that I was goin’ to tell you and Verman about, Herman.’’ “Like what? Like you havin’ a mean li'l whi’ boy come to visit you?” “No, I mean about crooks. You know what they are, don’t you, Herman? I mean if we got after one, f'r instance “Where any?” Herman in- quired. ‘“‘Where any we goin’ to git after?’’ “Well, there wouldn’t be any trouble about that if I made up my mind to tell you and Verman about it when Verman comes back. This is the way it is, you see, Herman, about shadowin’ crooks: I got to decide first what gang o’crooks we better go after; then maybe sometime I'll let you and Verman and Sam Williams maybe get on their trail or sump- thing when I’m busy.” Herman roused himself enough to make an inquiry. -‘‘Whut ‘at lil whi’ boy done do to you?” Penrod gave an account of the spitefulness of the recent visitor's final exploit. “I bet you never had any little cousin that painted a brand new hat and your dog, and then went away makin’ that sign at you and your whole fam’y, they way he did!" Penrod ex- claimed. Herman roused himself a little more. ‘“‘At ain’ nuff'm. Pappy tuck an’ stay all night one time where my Uncle Ben live! When night come Pappy tuck his coat an’ pants an’ stuck ’em under his haid to sleep on’ cause his pants had fo’teen dolluhs in ‘em. When he wake up nex’ day he ain't got nuff’'m under him but a bundle o’rags—coat an’ pants an’ fo’teen dolluhs done gone. ‘Where my coat an’ pants an’ fo’teen doliuhs done gone?’ he ast Uncle Ben. Uncle Ben say Oofus got ’em.”’ “Who?” Penrod asked, struck by this name. “‘Who was Oofus? Did he mean somebody named Rufus?’’ “How I know?” Herman said. “All I know is Uncle Ben say Oofus done tuck an’ come an’ git "em while Pappy’s sleepin,’ an’ tuck an’ gone outdoors an’ buil’ him a bonfire an’ burn ‘at coat an’ pants an’ fo’teen dolluhs all up. Pappy say, “‘Where’s "em ashes? Uncle Ben say Oofus done tuck an’ scatter all ’em ashes.- Uncle Ben ‘say he len’: Pappy pair of overalls to go home in. ‘Tain’ his fault, Uncle Ben say, ‘cause he cain’ he’p whut Oofus do.”’ Penrod felt that little Ronald's vandalism was outmatched by the misbehavior of Oofus: Herman seemed to have scored a point of superiority im possessing a rela- tive more damaging than young Master Passloe. owever, the point was not --* settled in Herman's favor. ‘Listen, Her- man, was Oofus your Uncle Ben’s little boy?’’ “How I know? say who Oofus is.”’ “Well, then,’’ Penrod returned, “he proba’ly wasn’t your father’s little cousin or else your Uncle Ben would of told him he was, so Uncle Ben ain’ I guess that proves it, Herman.” “Prove whut?" Herman in- quired sleepily. ‘‘Who prove whut?” he murmured. “Your Umele Ben would of told your father that Oofus was his little boy if he had been, wouldn’t he? So that proves you haven’t got any little cousin as bad as the one that’s just been visitin’ at your house.’ Penrod undoubted- ly found a little solace in his thought; his voice took on the tone of one who triumphs in an argument. “Oofus might of been a crook maybe, Herman, but I bet he wouldn’t of been very hard to manage if your father had known how. That’s what you haf to know about managin’ crooks, Herman; you haf to know how to do it.” Here Penrod became mysterious; he glanced up and down the alley, frowned and pass- ed his right hand over the left part of his chest under his jacket. “Herman,” he said confidentially, “I got a notion to show you sump- thing, if you'll never tell. It’s a secret: but it got sumpthing to do with what I said maybe. I'd tell you and Verman and Sam . Williams some day, if I decide to. ‘I guess you'll be surprised, Her- man; but I'll show it to you.” Dramatically he tossed back the left side of his jacket. expos- ing, for one moment only, the shield upon his breast, “‘Look, HHerman!”’ The ‘effect was disappointing; TANNA TUE ‘mixed up,” 2. By BOOTH TARKINGTON Ta LARA ESL CULL}. POE Herman was not surprised, nor impressed, nor moved in any manner whatever. He was now sound asleep. Penrod was dis- concerted. He buttoned his jacket and, oddly embarrassed, seeméd to need to do or say something that would reduce .a mortifying effect of anticlimax. He looked down darkly upon the unconsci- ous figure on the doorstep. “Huh!” he said grimly. “I guess it’s a good thing for you I didn’t let you see this badge, you old Herman you!” Then, not quite sure what he meant by that threatening exit- speech, but neverless restored by it to a Jashberish frame of mind, he strode away, to fill in an hour of this long Sunday afternoon with a bath for Duke. “Il guess you better not try to go to sleep while I’m talkin’ to you,” he said fiercely to the gayly colored little dog, as he drew him toward the necessary bucket of soapy water. “You hold still, you ole crook you!” The June-time moon hung over the town, and, in a wicker chair upon the ample front veranda of Mr. Schofield’s house, a young man sat and sometimes struck little harmonies and chimes from the strings of a light guitar; sometimes, too, he sang to this accompaniment in an unobtrusive tenor voice, and at other times— and oftener made as much love as she would permit to Mr. Scho- field’s.pretty daughter. But in this he encountered difficulties that presently became part of a crisis. “IT can’t and I won’t,”’ she said, after listening patiently, “It’s just ridiculous, Robert. You've only had your bachelor’s degree three or four days, and next fall you've got to begin law school for three years, and after that you've got to go into somebody's office and wait to get a practice. I won't hear of such nonsense—not now.” “But why not?” Mr. Robert Will- iams urged huskily. “Good gracious!” Margaret cried. “Haven't I just told you? It would be absurd for us to consider our- selves absolutely engaged. You ought to have your utter free- dom.” “T?” he said, astonished, “I ought to? But I don’t want to have any utter freedom!” : “Yes; you micht.’’ she returned gently. “You might see somebody else you wanted to marry.” “But if I should see somebody else and wanted to marry her wd “You see!” Margaret cried tri- umphantly. “You admit right away that you might!” “IT don’t anything of the kind; I was just arguing. I was pointing out that if I got engaged to some- body else, as you say I ought to have the right to, I wouldn't be ‘free’ as you say I should be.” “I never heard anything so she declared. “Neither did I,” Robert returned, with some bitterness. “That’s just what I’m trying to make clear. You say I ought to be free——” “Of course you ought!

You shouldn’t have been hampered “Hampered!’” he cried indig- nantly. “Margaret, how can you sit there and go on with such bare- faced hypocrisy?” “What!” she said. ‘Hypocrisy?’ Is that what you’re charging me with?” “You know it! You've changed toward me. You don’t want to be engaged to me, and you put it on the score of my future instead of confessing that there’s somebody else!” “What!” “It's true! It’s you who want to be free. I feared it; but | wouldn’t believe it, not even when | was told so!” “Told so!” she echoed sharply, “Who told you?” “T décline to state. But it’s true. I was told yesterday that yo’d gone everywhere for the last four or five weeks with a new man that’s come here to live, named Dade.” “Mr. Dade!” Margaret cried angrily, “He has nothing whatever to do with it, and I wish you'd please leave Mr. Herbert Hamil- ton Dade out of this conversation.” Robert rose in agitation. “It’s true! I see it must be the truth!” he said. “It is this Dade! And you sat there pretending you were thinking of my future—oh, Margaret, I should think you’d be ashamed!” “You—you are so unjust. I couldn't have believed—I couldn’t She was weeping. Stricken, the miserable young man threw himself upon his knees beside her, imploring. “Margaret! For God’s sake, don’t cry! I take it back!

Mr. Dade hasn’t been here since early in the week—he was here one evening—I admit it Robert sprang to his feet. “You do!” he said harshly. “I thought so!” And he broke into bitter laughter. “Fool that I was!” he cried. “Yes, a fool in a fool’s para- dise, there at college—believing you loved me “I never told you so,” tested. “No; you never told me in so many words. It was only the flirt’s way to let a poor fool guess it for himself.” Moaning, Margaret lifted im- ploring hands, caught his arm and clung to it. “You mustn’t, Robert!” she sought him, in a _ choked voice. “I can’t bear it! You mustn't charge me with making playthings of men—you can’t dream how mis- erable I am!

With a tumultuous rush, she dis- appeared into the open front oor. “IT guess she feels mad,” Penrod said placidly, turning to Mr. Will- iams. He paused as Mr. Williams seemed to be hardly more in a mood for conversation than Mar- garet had been. “Well, you goin’ home?” Penrod inquired. ut the visitor only muttered something incoherent and descend- ed the steps of the veranda. Penrod hopped up and, unsolicited, accompanied him to. the gate. “I know I’m right,” he said, “because, after the movies, I and papa went to bring mama from prayer-meeting Wednesday night, and, when we got back, that Dade was here, and Papa heard him call her a Princess or sump- thing and told her so at breakfast. next morning. Well, after that— well, good night.” Penrod added this farewell a little breathlessly, owing to the abruptness with which Robert swung out of the gate. Then the little brother watched the tall figure growing quickly dimmer; but, moved by a charitable impulse before it passed out of hearing, he leaned over the gate and called loudly, “He’s around here all the time, anyway! After that, Penrod waited in silence, expecting the courtesy of a comment, but nothing came. This luck of responsiveness on the part of one whom he felt to be fully his equal caused him some surprise, but, upon reflection, he decided that Margaret’s conduct was re- sponsible. Penrod had admired Bob Wil]- iams faithfully, above al) other suitors, for, more,.than a year+ in fact. ever since the preceding summer when Mr. Williams had given him a dollar, and the seem- ing curtness of this present deée- parture caused no abatement in the admiration. Besides, in the matter of Margaret, Penrod was firmly on Robert's side and even. more firmly not on Mr. Dade’s side. However, she had influence in- side the house, and he delaved before entering it, because he gloomily supposed she would be stirring up the authorities there against him. He was cheerfully therefore, upon repairing to the library. where his mother and father were engaged at cribbage, to be greeted casually, no refer- ence whatever to Margaret being. made. George B. Jashber was emphat- ically present at the Schofield family dinner table the follow-. ing evening, though the family- and Mr. Herbert Hamilton Dade, a guest upon this occasion, were unconscious of the honor. Mra, Schofield did, indeed, notice a peculiarity in her son’s manner; but she misinterpreted it. “Do your eyes hurt you, rod?” she whispered to him. “No.” he sald: ‘why?’ quite surprised, Pen- “You keep making that pucker. I've noticed | lately; and you keep leoking out. in your forehead, of your eyes sideways, as though it hurt you to look at anything straight in front of you. Does if?"’ “No, it dont.’”’ “Then don’t do it, Penrod.” After dinner Penrod disap- peared (as was his summer privi- lege) until 9 o’elock, his bedtime. . and presently he was moving slowly on all-fours along the lat- ticework below the front veran- da. Unfortunately for his mys- tic purposes, Margaret glanced down over the railing. “Don't play around here, rod.” she said. ‘“You’ll cold from the dew on the grass, and if you don’t find something Pen- healthier to do, I'll have to eal) - mother.” | (Copyrigent, 1930.)

Corn going into liquor and Talt on the lookout for folks coming through the gap. his sharp mem- ory and quick hunter's eyes ready to size up strangers or hillmen belonging to his own Meddlesome Creek country. Everybody coming through the gap stands out plain to Talt Al- len. Hillmen astride mules load- ed with sacks of grain, grain- corn bound for a secluded moun- tain still. Sometimes a dry-land sled drawn by two mules and loaded with fire coal from a high mountain mine. Hillmen afoot, armed with riflie-guns, out to hunt squirrels. Folks returning from Milk Sick Cove or Penny- royal settlement, farther down on Meddlesome. Hillboys trailed by lean hounds with tight bellies. Wandering cows and steers, and Bows with their young. And as figures appear Talt Al- fen says to himself more than to his boys: “Hit’s Matt Meadows fotchen’ goats. Mose Morgan air right smart steppin’.

Rud, Editor of Adventure. glance at him, wait again for him to speak. Like their maw they wait on him. “How Barbara git away?” Talt asks at last with a brittle, hard stare at his woman. She tells him that their girl, Barbara, got away by stuffing her cot bed full of mule harness and quilts. Built up the bed to look as if she were sleeping in it. Never went to bed though, but sneaked away under cover of night while her pappy and brothers and maw slept. alt’s woman tells him these things in the slow unemo- tional voice of the hills. And she tells him almost in a whisper that their gal took along her “taffer- ”" dress and her shoes and stockings. A strange heat is mounting to the head of Talt Allen as he sees that what they all have feared has really come to pass. His girl Bar- bara, Barbara Allen, named after the old song, proud girl of his name, running away to hitch with a foreigner, an outsider, a man out of her district. All his objec- tions to Bud Falloway stand out clear in Talt’s mind, seem to pass before him in dreadful review. The Falloway habit of trying to run the whole Cumberland country. Their growing power. Their re- fusal to sell their grain to those who make liquor. Their heavy en- dowments to settlement schools in the mountains and their bringing in of lowland—foreign—teachers. On top of all these things, thickening like scum, is the gall- ing thought that his gal is lost to him. Folks are going to say in the settlement and from the backs of their mules as they pass in the creek-bed road that his, Talt Allen’s, power is weakening; thet a Falloway took his gal from under his nose. Knowing the steep trails, the dangerous cliffs and ledges, she stole away at night; left him for an outsider, an enemy to all hill traditions. As he glances at his boys he seems to be trying to read what Jabe can not avoid the rash of Aneta ote es swing of the Meddlesome Creek man’s arm is in their minds. He knows that if he lets this disgrace of his gal running away pass without notice it may not be long before his boys feel the ‘weakening of their pappy’s power. Little by little they will slip away. With the hard brown eyes of the Cumberlander he seems to pinion his boys. They twitch and lower their eyes to feed the fire. “Anse,”’ he says sharply, “‘you- un kin fotch back Barbara.” The older boy of Talt Allen rises slowly, eyed by his brother and his maw. He picks up his Winchester rifle-gun and saunters away amid silence. He enters the mouth of the trail that meanders through the tight laurel and rho- dodendron, then dips steep and rough to the foot of the ridge and the approach to the gap. Before he disappears from view he turns and has a glimpse of his pappy looking through the old spyglass, his maw brushing her hair from her eyes, his brother feeding the fire. , In the long, regular, springy stride of the hillman he moves on and loses sight of his people. Stopping only once to whip a copperhead snake to death with a branch from a sapling when it defies him on the trail, he reaches the thick timber, close growing beeches that make a curtain to hide his pappy’s domain. Tight beech forest that stands like an outer fortification. Responsibility is upon his shoulders. He is going to bring back his pappy’s gal; going into enemy country. Leaving the beech woods, he enters the sycamores, another concealment. Then he comes into the open, the exposed approach to the gap from the Allen side. He maintains his pace until he reach- es the gap itself, then slows up and half turns to look back and up. He waves a hand. Gesture that he is gone. him down. HEN Anse passes through the gap he turns to the left, de- scends the steep trail that leads down, way’ down to the narrow valley, to the slow-moving waters of Meddlesome. He begins to hear the faint hum of waters pretty soon, then suddenly above it the splashing of a mule in the creek-bed road. When he leaves the. mouth of the traii and stands on the bank of the Meddlesome he looks up anda down. Then he sets out southward, in long strides over the gravel banks, gravel piled down into the ravine by mountain freshets. Rounding a bend, he catches sight of a hill- man ahead of him — hillman astride a mule. Mule hanging his head in strange brute dreams. . The hillman is bound for Penny- royal settlement, keeping his eyes on the tops of the sycamores as he rides. On the lookout for squirrels, gathering his supper as he rides to the settlement and back. Anse lengthens his stride still more as he recognizes Hard Meadows. Hard, who is never without a rifle-gun, who is al- ways vanquished, though, by Anse at the matches, who is always practicing rifle-gun fire along Meddlesome. it has been a long time since Anse attended these Sunday morning shootings. It has been a long time since the Milk Sick Cove men have seen him. He has had to lie low for a long time. Drives by the pro- hibition and revenue men kept the Allens bottled up for months, bottled up until he, Anse, lost the habit of the matches. And now as he takes up the gap ‘between him and the hillman he feels the need of making another show of his prowess, fresh evi- dence that Allen genias for sure shooting has not lessened during the months. As Anse forges ahead of Hard Meadows he keeps his eyes on the tree limbs. Pretty soon the cor- ner of his eye is whipped by @ gray streak in a sycamore. The throw of a rifle-gun to his shoul der, the report, the thud ag the squirrel strikes the ground are too usual for a hillman to notice, But Anse sees the white mark og the limb where his shot displaced the barks, sees slivers of the bark flutter to earth. He knows without looking back that Hard Meadows sees and reads. Pretty soon Anse passes hill children who are hunting for crawfish under the rocks in Med- dlesome. The boys stare at the big bore Winchester, the girls glance up while they feel under the rocks. Anse’s eyes fill for an instant, with the boys and girls moving their heads together. He knows what they are whispering. They are whispering that he is Talt Allen’s boy. Talt Allen’s boy! The thought seams to impose a freshening courage. The low laurel along the bank of Meddiesome gives way to the spreading cucumber trees, then to the tulip and dogwood. As Anse turns another bend and is forced to walk in the water, follow the path of the mules, he sees beyond the forms of four hillmen lying on the opposite bank under a clump of sycamores. As he approaches he hears the voice of one of them speaking loudly, boasting. Walking slowly so he can hear, and leaving the water for the bank, he passes the four with a nod. “I shore flung-fotched ‘at baby ter earth, I’m a-tellin’ yer. When it comes to throw-fightin’ I hain't a-takin’ off my hat ter any man. I heered at Pennyrile billy jes’ cain’t move his o)]’ bone-jints since this-un bang-throwed him. Huh. If yer want ter see wrestle-fightin’ yer oughter jine navy.” Anse throws a quick glance at the spouting hillman. Recognizes him. Ked, one of the Ferris boys from across big mountain, from Duckhead Creek district. First cousin to the three Taney boys who lie with him under the syca- mores. Ked Ferris, who has been coming over to Pennyroyal settle- ment on Saturday evenings and throwing men under the porticos; Ked, who breaks up Baptist prayer meetings on Wednesday evenings. Ked Ferris rises to his elbows and looks Anse over. “Don’t yer git scairt,”’ he says to Anse. “Haint a goin’ hurt yuh none.” The Taney boys poke Ked with their boot toes, try to silence him, as Anse hesitates some feet away. Ked's kin show concern in their eyes and squirm. But from the lips of the hillman who joined the navy come more words. Corn liquor is talking in him, flaying the Pennyroyal and the Milk Sick Cove men. Big talk about win- ning bouts in the navy and over at the coal mines on the railroad. K d brags about never being “throwed and about tossing niggers into the sea right and left as quick as he saw them on the at Suez, which is a place the Meddlesome Creek men never even heard of. Anse takes a step onward. He is on a mission for his pappy and can not afford to waste time here. But coming over him suddenly is the disturbing thought that if he goes on, if he seems to be walking away from trouble, this Ked Fer- ris will spread around the report that he, the boy of Talt Allen, was afraid of him. His pappy’s power and prestige needs to be bolstered up, not weakened. So Anse ay and looks around again at the Duckhead ex-sailor. “By doggies!” says Ked, “Ef he jes’ haint a-courtin’ trouble!” — Leaning his rifle-gun up against a sycamore Anse waits for the Duckhead man to rise and come for him. He watches the ex-sailor go through the antics and motions of professional wrestlers; Anse’s arms, though hanging by his sides are ready as Ked crouches an ‘ stoops and makes feijints for his body. When Ked suddenly gets a hold on Anse’s waist and his hands slide under his armpits for a neck- breaking hold. Anse comes to life. His knee strikes Ked’s belly like a ram, doubles up man, jackknifes his body. The power in a leg that takes an Allen: over a high mountain as easily as on the level creek-bed road would double up Samson himself, let alone a man whose wind is sap- ped by corn liquor. coe lee AB against hill ics are of no use - ing and wrestling, yells foul.

In a land where give and take as perm come, where all may gouge and kick, as well as hit, the excuse of Ked Ferris makes Anse smile. “Huh,” says Anse, picking up his rifle-gun. He walks off, con- tinues on down Meddlesome. Anse moves on bravely, deter- minedly to a goal, conscious of power, conscious of his pappy’s do- main back there resting on a —_ a trust that he, Anse, the boy Talt, will bring back the runaway girl, the mp | girl of the Meddle- some Creek Allens. It has been a long time since Anse was in Pennyroyal settle- ment. His settlement is Milk Sick Cove. His pappy’s stronghold is nearer the cove than Pennyroyal. Seems to him now that the country grows meaner and less attractive as the Valley widens and the hills draw back, ugly and bare with their timber cut and bristling with stumps. He begins to meet hill- men riding mules. Anse glances up at the sun. Sees that the morning is going fast and again increases. his stride. Far be- hes pe gr St > is the home, the and of e Falloways. Anse’s mind is puzzled over his sister getting away, but is still more puzzled over how she happened to make up with a Falloway. 2 This is the mystery that fills his mind. Where there are good men in her own district, when her own cousin, the school teacher, Noah Allen, wanted to hitch with Anse’s sister, why did she make up with a foreigner? His sister begins to stand out more and more as a traitor, a traitor to the Allen clan. And Anse’s resolve to bring her back becomes stronger as he leaves the creek bed and climbs the bank and finds himself at the end of Pennyroyal’s main street. LOWING down, Anse’s eyes sweep the town as he walks down the mud road to the business stores. Before he reaches the por- ticos his eyes have placed every hillman and hillwoman who sits under the porticos or leans against the business store walls and hitch- ing racks. Anse draws eyes as he steps un- der the first portico and leans against its post. He sees that his presence makes whisperings. Men shift and-watch him from under their wide-brimmed hats. Some speak. Some nod. One waves feebly from across the road. Anse watches him saunter slowly up to the harness shop, then cross the road, whistling to himself. Arte feels rather than sees the young hillman approach- ing him. Without looking Anse knows the hillman is leaning against a post near him and whittling nonchalantly. He is not surprised when the hillman steps over to him and says in a whisper: ‘“‘Hain’t yer Talt Allen’s boy?” Anse turns his face for a look at him. Sees he is one of the Farrel boys from Duckhead Creek. ‘“‘Reckon I air,’ says Anse, and looks across the mud road again. He waits for the man to go on. “Wall,” says the Duckhead man at length, “this mawnin’ I war fotchin’ shoat uptrail an’ seed yore pappy’s girl mulin’ hit with Bud Falloway through Pen- nyrile. Seed ‘em from yander hilltop. Ol’ fireball jes’ a-comin’ up when this-un seed ’em.” While the informer’ whittles and glances at Anse now. and then out of the corner of his eye, while men whisper under the por- ticos and business store men come to their dootways to watch, Talt Allen’s boy senses that every man in town, every Woman, every boy under the portico knows what is up. Bud Falloway, from the land of the Falloways across mountains, has defied Anse’s pappy; his own gal has defied him. The news has already spread in the settlement and along Meddlesome. Folks have something to wonder and think about. Anse knows that some are privately gloating over his pap- py being tricked and beaten. Sat- isfaction in the souls of some. Anse sees more than one young hillman who has tried to make up with Barbara, his sister; more than one who has felt her dis dain and her pappy’s. thing: The Falloways have once more come out on top. And be- ing a hillman, Anse knows that the boy of the Duckhead Farrels who just said that he saw Bar- bara Allen and Bud Falloway was carrying out a subtle revenge for those who, like himself, were ignored by Talt’s gal. > - a T has been a long time since he was in Pennroyal Settlement.

JUNE 29, 1930. duty to fulfil that touches his pappy's domain. There is always the need of leaving this settle- ment with the show that the Allens are still powerful, still to be feared. He thinks of the last time when he settled a dispute with Moses Valentine, another of the Duckhead Creek boys; settled something in short order, almost on the spot where he now stands. The same faces looked out from under the porticos on that morn- ing. Even Luke Foraker, the deputy sheriff, stood in the same spot where Anse sees him now. Anse sees that the law, in the per- son of Luke, is looking at him. pathy that hangs in the air and stands out on the dark faces under the porticos gives way slow- ly. There is something in the sudden shifting of bodies and the quick glances down the mud road that getea Anse’s attention. He sees Luke Foraker, the deputy sheriff, move off; move off in slow strides as he looks at papers taken from his hip picket. Then down the road, just below the narrow bridge over Meddlesome, he sees “a hillman -.astride a mule ap- . proaching town. Jabe Morgan, the Duckhead champion of Satur- day evening fist fights, comes up the road and slides off his mule in front of the bank with a sig- ~ nificance that misses few, a sig- nificance that is borne to Anse quick.. Quick, because the sight of the newcomer opens an old sore. With the never failing mem- ory for details of a wrong, pecu- liar to the hill mind, Anse thinks of a year-old grievance. It be- gins to rankle in his blood. Just about a vear ago in Penn- royal Settlement, when Jabe Mor- gan, in view of the same men and sons of men who sit under porti- cos, laughed at Anse. Laughed and made a gesture which Anse did not see at the time. It was a long time after it happened when Anse finally learned about it— about the gesture. One day when he was toting yellow corn and met Carr O’Gowd on the creek-bed road he learned about the gesture. “Effen yer,hain’t a-goin’ tell, hits me a-tellin’ yer,’’ Carr had said, “‘’at Jabe Morgan fotched his thumb to his nose at you-un. This-un seed him.”’ A year ago since Jabe had thus saluted Anse behind his back. The two are meeting by chance the first time in a year. The incident has traveled far in a year. The slur and the insult to the older boy of Talt Allen is remembered by them all under the porticos. With A sure instinct for trouble even when signs have not actually developed, men become more tense and watchful. They look at Jabe Morgan, who is looking in the bank window: then they look at Anse, who is leaning against a post. Anse watches the Duckhead fighter, sees him turn around at last. Observes that Jabe Morgan throws him a glance, then looks beyond. No surprise, no recogni- tion, no signs on his face that he has seen the boy of Talt Allen. Yet Anse knows that behind the mask of apathy and unconcern the thoughts of Jabe are taken up with him. Behind that Sphinx-like face a hill mind is busy with strategy, with plans, with schemes for meeting the approaching emergency. The eyes of Jabe Morgan rest on the end of the road, where it joins Meddlesome, s0 he can think and plot. Anse knows the first move is his. His is the grievance. He knows better than to put a chip on his shoulder, even figuratively, and to walk up to Jabe Morgan; and hé knows better than to expect Jabe to put a chip on his shoulder. The move, first move, is Anse’s. But he wants his act, his plan for revenge, to be effective as Jabe’s insult a year ago. He watches the hogs wallowing in the mud for two or three minutes. Then he glances up and down the road, and at last glances back of him. He sees a potlicker bitch hound suck- ling her puppies as she lies under the porticos, in front of a business store. Her puppies yanking at her teats, while her eyes blink and her mouth snaps at the flies buzzing lazily around her. While men under the porticos watch and Jabe Morgan leans up against a post in front of the bank ”" building, A And these things mean just one ng, Anse steps over to the hound mother suckling her pup- ‘pies. He leans his rifle-gun up against the wall of the building and bending down, picks up one of the puppies. Holds it in his arms and strokes it. Slowly straighten- ing up he looks across the road, directly at Jabe Morgan. The Duckhead fighter throws him a glance. His glance lasts long enough to see Anse point with his t@umb at the potlicker hound and her puppies and grin. The mean- ing is sharp. Men under the porti- cos grasp the idea quickly. Pan- Always, whenever he comes to; tomime stronger than-a curse. A _ Pennroyal, there seems to be a piece of damnation that makes men under the porticos open their mouths and stare at Jabé Morgan, while only the grunting of the hogs in the road and the bellowing of a cow and her calf break the silence of five tense, uncertain minutes, - o o > AYBE because Jabe Morgan is a highlander and knows that a show of temper would seem un- gainly after the subtlety of Anse Allen, he casually stretches and gives a hitch to his jean pants. Then he looks up and down the road. His eyes at last seem to search the hilltop and then drop slowly to look at Anse again, who sets the potlicker puppy down on the boardwalk.and again leans against the post. Jabe Morgan comes, comes in a slow saunter, his hands deep in his pockets. Comes through the mud road with his eyes now on the Meéddlesome Creek man, the oldest boy of Talt Allen. He takes his hands from his pockets when he is five feet from Anse and hooks his thumbs in his galluses. Throwing his head back he spits in the Med- dlesome Creek man’s face. Anse’s form sagging against the post under the porticos makes a squick spring and the impact of the two carries them to the ground, where they lock and gouge and roll in the mud. As one in a fever which trans- forms things into grotesque shapes, Anse’s mind struggling to grasp the situation clearly, try- ing to reason why he is fighting the man who stands towering near him, he thinks suddenly of his sister, his pappy’s gal, who ran off with a Falloway. His pappy told him to bring her back. “Anse, yuh kin fotch Barbara back,”’ his pappy’s voice seems to be saying. A glimmer of light that comes to him through the moment of nightmare. His pappy’s words seem to solidify, seem to get - under him, seem to pry him loose from the mud and lift him to his feet. He rises, clinging to a handful of mud, and, reason re- turning, he lets it fly at the eyes of Jabe Morgan. With an accuracy developed by all Meddlesome Creek men in rock throwing, with a sureness of aim equal to a rifle-gun, and which. has cut off the head of more than one highland moccasin snake, Anse’s throw in the case is perfect. His eyes mud-spattered, his sight blotted out, Jabe can not avoid the rush of Anse’s body, the swing of the Meddlesome Creek man’s arm that lays him down. For half a minute Anse watches his enemy unable to rise from the mud. Then seeing the men under the porticos rise to stretch or climb on their mules hitched to the racks he walks under the porticos for his rifle-gun. Mud covered, bleeding, limp- ing, Anse moves down the board- walk, crosses thé narrow. bridge over the branch fiowing into Meddlesome and disappears from view of those who continue to sit under the porticos and whisper. Anse walks on down the left bank of Meddlesome, follows a well-worn trail made by mules and men trafficking between Pennyroyal and the wider, more fertile valleys tapped by the rail- road. His legs feel heavy. He tries to overcome his limping, tries not to reveal the injury done him by Jabe Morgan, as he passes hillmen on the trail who are bound for Pennyroyal Under- standing suddenly why men stare at him and women-and hill girls shy off the trail as he approaches, he washes his face in the creek waters and scrapes the drying mud from his shirt and jean pants. > +. . > HE trail leaves the creek bed after a while and rises steep and straight to the top of a bald hill. From the summit Anse can see only the peaks of other hills. Below him the trail forks, and he hesitates. He has reached the end of familiar land. Beyond the spot upon which he stands he has never ventured. He scratches his head for several minutes and pon- ders. Then he hears a faint foot- fall of somebody coming up the hill He sits down and, with his rifle-gun beside him, waits. Forces unconcern, apathy to his face. With hill habit he relaxes his body and face. As the footfalls grow louder and he hears the cracking of the brush he lies on his back with his hands under his head and half-eloses his eyes. Pretty soon he sees the tall body of a hillman stepping out of the mouth of the right fork of the trail, bending low under the branches of the pines. He does not see Anse until he is almost upon him. The buckles of his galluses shine, flash in a ray of sun. He has a Bible in his hand and is talking.to himself. When he sees Anse he stops abruptly. * a-goin’ Talt Allen’s boy affects to wake up from a sleep, rubs his eyes and nods. The stranger wipes his face with a_large blue handkerchief while he talks about the steepness of the trail, the heat and the chig- gers that try the religion of men. A birthmark on the man’s face holds Anse’s eyes. Long and red, on a freshly shaven cheek, it sends Anse’s mind hunting’ Back some months ago he saw this face over a stand in Milk Sick Cove, ‘way down on Meddiesome, in his own district. He remembers that the revival brought the preacher noth- ing, because the Allens and the Allen kin down to fourth cousins are not religious. He remembers how the man before him left town, railing and muttering at the sin in the district; this man before him threatening the wrath of God, this burying, preaching, marrying man of God. “Air yer a-goin’ downtrail?” The preacher asks it while he lifts a pants leg to scratch a chigger. ‘“Reckon I air.’’ “Yer hain’t a. Falloway, 9”? “Hain't,” says Anse, whipping some dry mud off his jean pants. “Huh. Reckoned yuh war a Falloway late fer the hitchin’.” The preacher runs his thumbs through his galluses. “Falloway air shore a lan’ o’ milk an’ honey. Jes’ like Canaan in Scripture. Never seed sech doin’s. Three fid- diers. Et a whole roast shoat.” The preacher thumbs his Bible. Anse sees a money bill between the leaves. “Falloways air princes,” says the preacher. ‘‘Jes’ like in Good Book. Ten dollars fer hitchin’ a Falloway. Maybe eight bits fer hitchin’ other folks. Maybe only victuals. Hillbilly in Pennyrile once give this-un sick shoat fer hitchin’ him. Shoat died on this- un’s hands afore he could gi home.

Anse listens to the preacher's long discourse about the Allen gal meeting Bud Falloway on the creek-bed road near Pennyroyal. The wordy preacher tells about the way the Falloway boy lifted Barbara Allen and her mule out of thg mud, rescuing her after.a heavy rain, when she and her mule were caught in a slide of mud down the mountain. He tells about Falloway and her making up right away, and about Fallo- way trying for weeks to get word to her to meet him and hitch. “When a gal and man makes up hit hain’t any use a-tryin’ ter stop ‘em,”’ says the preacher, with a slap of his hand on the Bible. “Wal, ‘at Allen gal air shore a-settin’ purty.” The preacher adjusts his gal- luses again. “Reekon this-un better be a- hustlin’.. Weddin’ this mawnin’. Fun’ral preachin’ purty soon in Duckhead. Revival this evenin’ in Pennyrile. Lord's business air a-rushin’. Air you-un-a-goin’ ter Falloway settlement?”’ Anse nods. “An’ yer hain’t a Falloway?” Talt Allen’s boy '-oks up at the preacher now. Maybe the look in his eyes tells the preacher some- thing. Maybe Anse’s eyes speak before his lips, because the preacher, gathering his tailcoat, steps away. “IT air Talt Allen’s boy,” says Anse. The preacher is near a laurel thicket and, with a frightened look and leap, he disappears. Anse fires his rifle-gun blindly toward the thicket, then listens to the pound- ing of the preacher’s feet as they take him down the hill. Anse moves down the right fork of the trail, the fork the preacher issued from. At the foot of the trail he meets a creek branch and follows its banks for several miles. When he comes to a road made by dry-land sleds he pauses. Looks around until he sees a cabin under the sycamores. He calls to the woman sitting in the doorway. Tells her he is looking for the Falloways. The woman, old woman strok- ing her shins, lifts her hands to her mouth, speaks through them. “Cross mountain,” she says. “Effen yuh cross mountain an’ foller creek-bed an’ keep a-goin’ agin, ol’ fire-ball, yuh cain’t miss hit. Cain’t miss Falloways. Lan’ o’ milk an’ honey. Right smart folks air Falloways. Heerd ol’ man Fal- loway air smartest speecher in all hill country. He shore air pro- gressiondest lawmaker.

He stops so that the desire way down in him to say who he is might rise to his throat. ‘| air Talt Allen's boy,” says at last. The woman who is a Hathaway scratches her head. “‘Cain't recol- lec’ ‘at mame. Maybe heerd on hit some time. Air you-un from Duckhead?”" “We-uns air Meddlesome folks.”’ “I heerd on Meddlesome. a fightin’ lan’, hain’t hit?’’ Anse takes another step, won- dering at the ignorance of folks who never heard of his people. “Effen yuh see my boy Noah, jes’ say you-un seed his maw. He war ter be hyar this mawnin’, Reckon maybe sence he been away he got himself up a gal maybe.” Her voice strings away as Anse begins the climb up the steep trail. Through the thinned pines and the short laurel he walks with his even stride, noting with quick eyes of the hunter every move- ment. It is one of those long mown- tains he climbs. A circling road seems to wander to no- purpose through thin beech woods, past cliff edges again and again, level itself for miles, and then shoot upward at last to a bald summit. From here the land below unfolds he Crick Hit's and stretches out into a level valley; wide, long valley, cut by a river, dotted with blue and white houses, marked off in vary- ing shades of green. He sees the- roads, white and straight, and black dots that move mysteriously along them. He thinke of the ‘words of the preacher, the preach- er calling this the land of Canaan, Again he moves on, begins the descent. Loses view of the val- ley from time to time as the trail doubles and dips to laurel and rhododendron thickets or meanders between knobs crested with wind-whipped pines. And from time to time, with surpris- ing suddenness, the valley bursts into view, making him pause and ponder. He meets a branch and follows the trail that borders it. He begins to feel hungry. Hunger gnaws in him and he stoops to drink of the cold, swift waters, When without warning the valley springs into view again he is at the mouth of the branch and on the bank of the river. He can make out the things that looked to him just like black dots. Above him he sees a machine drawn by six mules, sees men fol- lowing with shovels and picks. Sees the carts dumping their loads along the river banks. He walks pow toward a lane that leads away from the road builders. Follows the lane until it turns sharply and becomes a road, a street. Here he halts, surprised at the scene before him, the brick business stores, the au- tomobiles, the folks in store clothes. He looks in vain for mules and dry-land sleds. The bustle in Falloway settlement makes him hesitate to walk up its busy main street, yet he fin- ally moves on; spurred by hunger, he looks for a restaurant. When he is half way up the street he leans against a post in front of a store and studies the fronts of the buildings. One question will do to find his way to the Falloway home, one question put to any of the pass ersby. Yet he waits, never feel- ing sure of the way to ask. Al! strangeness grips him, an inse- curity. The corners of his eyes see men glancing at him. Some smile or wink at a companion, When he turns around once he sees the keeper of a business. store staring at him. Wherever he looks he sees the name of Falloway. On the bank, the cen- eral Store, the long building be- fore which men are staring into the innards of an automobile. The name of Falloway seems to flaunt itself before him. Anse, after a while, feels a tap on his shoulder and turns around slowly. his eyes shoWing astonishment at the familiarity. He frowns and shifts his legs as a man in blue uniform looks him over; sharp-eyed man sizing him up from his hat to his boots. “What you doing here?"’ The uniformed one folds his arms and bores Anse with steady eves.

During one survey no less than 12,000 fami- lies were visited by agents of the Department of Labor and the family purchases were carefully studied. It was found that more than one-third of the weekly pay envelope goes for food in the av- erage home, a fact which points convincingly to the value of the study of food values by the thrifty housewife anxious, on the one hand, to feed her family accord- ing to the latest dietic rules, and, at the same time, reduce the ever- mountia~g grocery bill. Out of these studies, data are acquired showing what amounts wage earners should have to en- able them to live comfortably and decently.

Timely Tested Recipes from The Bureau of Home Econgmics (Department of Agriculture.) Peach 1 cup double cream. 1 cup peach pulp. 5 tablespoons sugar. 2 egg whites. One-sixteenth teaspoon salt. Whip the cream. Peel and slice ripe peaches and rub enough through a coarse strainer to make one cup of pulp. Add the sugar, and fold quickly into the cream before the peaches discolor. Add the egg whites, which have been beaten with the salt, pour into a tray or mold, and freeze. Fresh apricot or plum pulp may be sub- stituted for the peach. Cherry Mousse. 1 cup double cream: 1 cup pitted cherries. % cup sugar. 2 egg whites. One-sixteenth teaspoon salt. Mousse necessities are attended to before the child finally is tucked into bed; then ignore all calls from him, unless you think there is a real emergency . colony to end its. spread. Let the pitted cherries stand with the sugar in order to ex- tract the juice, then pour off the juice and chop the cherries. Whip the cream and fold in the cherry juice and pulp. Fold in the egg whites, which have been beaten with the salt, and freeze immedi- ately. If more cherries are de- sired add 1 tablespoon of gelatin to each cup of juice in the usual way. Prune or Apricot Mousse. 1 cup double cream. 1 cup prune or apricot pulp. Sugar to taste. 2 eggz whites. One-sixteenth teaspoon salt. To make one cup of prune pulp cook one-fourth pound of dried prunes with a little lemon peel in 1% cups of water until soft, rub through a strainer and add 4 tablespoons of sugar and 2 table- spoons of lemon juice. For one cup of apricot pulp cook one-fourth pound of dried apricots in 1% to 2 cups of water, rub through a strainer, and add enough sugar to fill the cu D.

(Bureau of Entomolery.) There are a number of common species of ants which get into houses from time to time and cause annoyance by appearing on foods, especially sugar, cakes, can- dies and other sweets, and cooked foods of animal origin. An ant having once gained access to foods of these sorts reports the discov- ery to the colony and in an in- credibly short time the premises may be swarming with these un- welcome visitors. According to the bureau, both house and garden ants at times become a pest in the pantry and kitchen. The species that live en- tirely within doors nest in wood- work, masonry or articles of fur- niture. They are often very diffi- cult to eradicate because of their inaccessibility. If the nest can be Iccated by following the trail of the workers back to the point of their disappearance, the inmates of the nest may sometimes be reached and destroyed by inject- ing a little carbon disulphide, kerosene or gasoline into the opening by means of an oil can or small syringe. In the use of these substances precautions should be taken toe see that no fire is’ present, as they are all inflam- mable. The removal of attracting sub- stances from their reach should be the first step. Keep food sup- plies which are likely to attract, ants in tight containers or in the refrigerator and sweep up prompt- ly any crumbs of cake or bread scattered by children. Find and destroy the nest as soon as pos- sible. It ought not to be neces- sary to take up the flooring to get at it, for poison baits can be used to kill the queens and the brood. The young woman in the pic- ture is treating the trai] of the ants she has observed with kero- sene, putting it on.with a paint brush. Almost any of the common gar- den or lawn ants which build their little crater nests in the soil about houses may become temporarily house pests in their. search for food substances. When this oc- curs the nuisance can often be eliminated by tracing them back to their outdoor colony and de- stroying the nest. One way of do- ing this is illustrated. Boiling water is poured from a tea kettle over the nest. An oil can or small syringe could be used for the pur- pose. Care should be taken that no fires are present if kerosene, gascline or carbon disulphide is used in treating the nests. When ants are found swarming up trees they may be caught in large numbers by putting up pois- oned bait, consisting’ of a sugar sirup to which sodium arsenite, benzoate of soda and tartaric acid are added. Precautions should be taken to safeguard human beings and domestic animals when pois- oned sirups are being prepared or kept on hand. Bait of this kind is put into a paraffined paper bag with one side folded down to ad- mit the ants. It is nailed on the tree as shown, out of reach of lit- tle children. Small lawns may be sprayed with kerosene emulsion or a very strong soap solution to destroy ants. Dissolve half a pound of any common laundry soap in one gallon of water for use in this way. milk, with sugar and flavoring to taste, may be served as a sauce with fruits or puddings. Baked Custard. 4 to 6 eggs. 1 quart milk. 6 to 8 tablespoons sugar. % teaspoon salt. % teaspoon vanilla. Butter. Nutmeg. Heat the milk, sugar and salt. Stir the hot milk slowly into the lightly. beaten eggs. Add the va- nilla. Pour the mixture into cus- tard cups, add a bit of butter to each and sprinkle lightly with nutmeg. Bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) on a rack in a pan of water until the cus- tards are set. When the point of a thin knife comes out clean the custard is done and should be re- moved at once from the hot water to keep it from cooking too much. Serve either hot or cold in the custard cups. A spoonful of bright jelly may be placed on top just before serving.

a ‘ ee Fw — eee ee em © %): HERE is more public curi- 7" osity concerning the Hall of Fame in America than there is definite knowledge of it. The Hall of Fame, situated on the heights at New York University, was founded by Chancellor Mac- Cracken, and in the year 1900 the structure was built. From the architectural point of view, it is unique. There is nothing re- sembling it in the United States or abroad. The Colonnade was designed by the famous firm oT McKim, Mead & White, and is a monument to the genius of the late Stanford White, who gave it his particular and personal devo- tion and supervision, and made it an ideal setting for the row of busts it contains. The entrance to the is through dignified gates of wrought iron, recently given . by Mrs. Charles B. Alexander. Above the north gate is inscribed “Enter with joy that those witha have lived,” and over the south gate is writ- ten “Take counsel here of wisdom, . beauty, power.”’ With two exceptions the busts have been unveiled since 1921. Originally, replicas were accepted, including four famous ones—Hoa- don’s Washington and Fulton, Saint-Gauden’s Lincoln and Sher- man. More recently it has been decided that the Colonnade shall be not only a memorial to the great men and women of America, but a representation of the finest inclosure OW I’m not galumphin’ around tonight!” War- ren’s cane prodded the ancient cobbles. “Darn strenuous day. {But dear, you can siee tomorrow,” pleadingly clinging to his arm. “Hello, lamp that old boy!” her coaxing ignored. “This burg pered with statues.” Helen glancing up at the equestrian F rich-W ithelm.

Not invariably do good sculp- tors succeed in making good like- nesses; not always are they felici- tous in modeling from history.

The Hall of Fame, by preserv- ing in @ striking and memorable form the names of great Ameri- cans in the departments of states- manship, literature, science, in- oratory and religion, teaches impressively the best form of patrietism. In the long run of centuries a nation’s con- tributions to the world are not reckoned as the power of con- quest, or as the accumulation of wealth, but rather by the number of its men of genius. Thus we have here a true shrine for the whole country, New York Univer- sity regarding itself only as guardian. Se many attacks are nowadays made on the great men in our his- tory, So many assaults have been made from abroad on our national spirit, that it is difficult to over- estimate the teaching power of this memorial rew. No citizen of the United States can look at these portraits without feeling a == — —- reverence for his country; and any foreigner, with a preconceived notion of America as the land of greed, will have to revise that opinion in the presence of genius. Every day in the year throngs of visitors come te the Halil of Fame. The attendants are be- sieged by requesis for the printed handbook, and for other papers giving information about the hise- tory of the undertaking and about the facts in the lives of those com- memorated. An immense number of children, groups of schoolboys and schoolgirls accompanied by a teacher, are seen there frequently. It is one of the sights of New York; it is one of the “places” in America that must be seen by traveling foreigners, by immi- grants, and by naturalized citi- zens. Thus this Hall of Fame teaches in am eloquent and iast- ing fashion American history asd biography. The director, the Honorable Robert Underwood Johnson, poet and scholar, has given himeelt with unremitting energy and de- votion to spreading abroad the jn- fluence of the Hall of Fame. its educational value, already great, he is determined to enlarge. He is now engaged in having brief, and inspiring biographies of each “immortal” prepared, showing the struggles they passed through in reaching eminence. These brief biographies will be furnished to visitors at cost. He also hepes to carry out a plan which will involve the help of teachers throughout the coun- — ay —————-— ++ ——— = S—=—-: = SES — = rn try; this is to establish in every State an annual prize competition, consisting of short essays written by high school students on the men and women included in the Hall of Fame, of possible candi- dates, and en the whole swhject of individual distinction. The prize will have an interest all its own. The syccessful competitor in each State will be given a round trip to New York and re- turn, with a fortnight’s stay in the city uader the direction of an older friend. People will always differ acri- moniousiy on what constitutes fame, as distinguished from mere prominence. Undoubtedly there are many intelligent people who are displeased because their own candidates have not yet been ad- mitted, and because a number of persons are securely there whom they do not regard with awe. Such a subject—the qualifications for admission to the Hall of Fame —would be fine for rhetorical competition. Some one, I have forgotten who it was, has defined Fame as “being much talked about by intelligent people in a good sense.” Sixty-five men and women are in place, and there is room for only a hundred. Pos- sibly in the future the choices will fallon men and wemen who have reached distinction in some spe- cial field, without having any popular reputation. Such a man as Willard Gibbs, so eminent in mathematical physics that he has been called “the greatest mind ever produced in America,’ might ———----- = ——— = [= SES fittingly be chosen, thouch the average visitor would say, ‘Never heard of him.”’ Simon Newcomb, the astronomer and philosopher, has more popularity, but is cer- tainly not known to the average man in the street. Even men who have fame im the highest sense combined with world-wide popularity have had their position in the hall of fame challenged. Of course, an enor- mous number of letters are ceived, urging this or that candi- date, and denouncing this or that recipient of honor. One letter protested the acceptance of Mark Twain, because he had admitted that, when a boy, he had taken 10 cents from a contribution box, It will be impossible to please all.

_——— > Which reminds me of a story told by William Le Queux (in “Things I Know’’) about the great Horace Greeley whose handwrit- ing was so bad that there was only one compositor in the New York Tribune office who could set his copy. One day, while the super- compositor was out, a bird that had flown into the office walked - into seme “printing ink and then on to a number of loose sheets lying on the floor. “Why,” said one of the printers, picking up a sheet, “this looks like the old man’s writing.”’ So saying, he fastened the sheets together and put them on the absent compositor’s hook. . o * . Presently the compositor came back, and, with all eyes turned on him, picked up the sheets, and to the amazement of the room started setting up the supposed “copy.” After a bit, he jibbed at a word and asked the man nearest him what it was. ‘‘How should I know?” was the reply. ‘“‘Better ask the old man himself.’’ > > > - Reluctantly the baffled com- positor took the sheet to Greeley’s sanctum. “Well,” grunted the great man, “‘what is it?” “It's this word, Mr. stammered the man. Greeley snatched the sheet from the man’s hand, looked at the al- leged word, and threw himself back with a snort of disgust. “Why.” he shouted, ‘‘any fool could see what it is! It’s uncon- stitutional!”’ _ Forty-five years ago Sir Hall Caine wrote his first novel, “‘The Shadow of a Crime.” With the manuscript tucked under his arm, he started out to find a publisher. The House of Cassell then, as now, was one of the leading hopes for young English authors. So he walked boldly into their office and left his precious bundle. Greeley,” After a week or two he went back and filled up a form: ‘“*Hall Caine to see the editor in chief about his manustript.’’ The office boy seemed a terribly long time in returning, and when he did it was with the manuscript in loose sheets under his arm. Dumping it down on the table, he said: “The editor’s compliments and he thanks you.”’ The author was furious and vowed he would make Cassells rue that day. . . > But he evidently ehanged his mind, for we are told by Frederic Whyte in his biography of Will- iam Heinemann (who subsequent- ly became Hall Caine’s publisher) and made an immense fortune for himself and his author) that Hall Caine later offered Cassell’s “‘The Bondsman”’ for 400 pounds ($2,000) outright and that he was again turned down! Mr. Whyte was with Cassells at the time, so he ought to know. It was then offered to Heinemann, who grabbed it and a fortune at the same time. July 24, 1830, a paper smaller in size than the other papers exist- ing. The size like the tabloid ideas of today perhaps was re- garded .as fundamental—a dis- tinction and an attraction which the editor purposed never to re- linguish. Spic, and clean and with an eye all about were the young founders’ ideas. The first copy of the Transcript is a minia- ture of Boston of 1830 and makes rare, interesting reading. So the book tells th- great life of a great national daily for 100 years until, at the present time. the owners and editors are able to present to the American public an organ of which they are justly proud. The book teems with his- toric and other interesting inci- dents, anecdotes of the great and ‘the near great, laughter and tears, success and failure, peace and war. sBy W. Orton Tewson Hall Caine began his writing ca- reer on a Liverpool newspaper. Then he went to London and met Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the poet and painter. It.was Rosset#é, with whom he lived for some years, who encouraged Hall Caine to turn to fiction writing. -It is not generally known that the nov~ elist has been at work for many years on a, “Life of Christ,” but when it is to be published I do not know. y = Ss es Mention of Rossetti reminds me that when he was painting the now famous reredos at Liandaff Cathedral he took’ so long over them that the dean and chapter asked the Bishop of Llandaff, who was going to London, to call at Rossetti’s rooms in Blackfriars_ and try to discover what. was the cause of the delay. A maid opened the door to the bishop, at once informed him that Rossetti was absent and, on learning what the bishop ~ had come about, ex- claimed: “Oh, lor’, sir, Mr. Rossetti don’t paint now-——he’s married!” - > . > When President Wilson was about to send a special envoy to investigate American interests in Mexico, writes Owen Wister (in *‘Roosevelt: The ,Story of a Friendship”), his Princeton class- mate, Danie] Moreau Barringer, a mining engineer, took it for grant- ed that the envoy would.be a man of- experience in mines. Wilson replied that a mining expert would be the very last kind of person he would choose. “When your eyes troubled you at Princeton,” said Barringer to the President, “‘whom did you Schweinitz,”” replied ay distinguished oculist,”” said Barringer. ‘‘Why didn’t you send for a plumber?” The high cost of plumbing, one imagines. * > > The real Roosevelt spirit: “‘I- recall a dinner at the White House,’’ reminisces Owen Wister, “when Judge Oliver Wendell Holmes and Mrs. Holmes were there, and we all knew each other very well; in the midst of the ex- cellent talk and laughter the President (Roosevelt) in sheer joy suddenly put both his hands on the table, bowed over them and exclaimed: “*Oh, aren’t we having a good time.’ ”’ > > . . Apropos the distinction belong- ing to Rutherford B. Hayes of be- ing the first President of the United States to omit the serving of liquor at state functions, Owen Wister chuckles: “‘Rutherford B. Hayes and his temperance wife Lucy were in the White House. Poor Hayes used to come to Philadelphia, go escorted by a leading lawyer from the train to the Union League Club, and safe inside fling his arm round his escort’s shoulder and say, ‘for God’s sake, Patterson, give me a drink!’ ’’ ; > > > > One entry in the diary of Mary Gladstone (afterward Mrs. Drew), daughter of W. E. Gladstone, “Grand Old Man’’ of Victorian politics, reads: “Quiet evening at home. I was in my room at 9:30 and heard him and mama coming up the stairs singing, ‘A Ragamuffin Husband and a Rantipolling Wife’ at the top of their voices.”’ “Him” was her father, Prime Minister of England, :hen 74 years of age. ““‘Home’’ was No. 10 Downing street, official resi- dence of the P. M. > . > > Another entry: “A Mr. and Mrs. Rose baptized their daughter ‘Wild,’ and she married Mr. Bull.’’ the * > > * Of.George Bernard Shaw’s play “St. Joan,” Mrs. Drew wrote in her diary. *“‘How foolish it is of the world all to rave of ‘St. Joan,’ for lack of some one speaking the truth. When Watts painted papa, because he was Watts every one raved, till I went to see it in Christ Church Hall, at Oxford, and said at once, ‘It’s awful.’ Then the dean echoed me, and one by one all that saw it took up the same tune, and the picture was returned to Watts who quite agreed and destroyed it! Some one should show up Bernard Shaw.” | *’s * ~ 7 Who is the brave man? asks J. Lewis May (in his “Life of George Eliot’). This is Mr. May’s aa- swer to his own question: “Not he who is unconscious of danger, but the coward who is tempted to run and does not.” An alternative answer is: He who would essay to show up Ber- nard Shaw. . . * . So here goes: First and foremost; George Ber- nard Shaw is an Irishman. A bril- liant Irishman, but still an. irigh- man. That explains a lot. A being an Irishmen, he is agin’ the government. Any government. He dearly loves an argument. Any kind of an argument. Line up 99 men. Unfurl a big black flag. Ask the ninety and nine what color the flag is. Ninety-nine voices cry as one, “Black.” “No, no,”’ shys Mr. Shaw, “it’s white,” and, begorra, in no time at all he has them so mixed up by his skillful, witty, convincing ‘‘line of talk’’ that the ninety and nine go away believing that he is right and they are wrong. I know. I’ve had some. - Mind you, I’m not saying that ~ everything Mr. Shaw says, writes or does is with his tongue in his cheek. Far from it. But his ef- fervescent, irrepressible, some- times irresponsible, but always witty and brilliant Irish genius dominates him. And thank God for it! I have never read a dull sentence from Mr. Shaw's pen, nor have I heard him utter one, for he talks as he writes, with the added delight of a _ rich Irish brogue. As a man, Shaw is fine. The salt of the earth. One day in London I received a post card reading: “A Mr. M. has just obtained from me on your behalf a long string of answers about the war. G. B. Shaw.’’ ‘Now, I had never heard of Mr. M. before. Presently there ar- rived a seedy-looking individual who announced himself as Mr. M. He had an interview with Shaw and wanted to sell it. * > 7 > To cut the story short, M. ex- plained that he had called on Shaw—whom he had known in palmier days when both were young journalists in Fleet street —hoping to extract & loan from him, but that instead of giving him money the genial humorist gave him an interview, telling him to sell it “and be sure and gét £10 ($50) for it.”” Of course, I bought it, but not before point- ing out to Mr. M. the “iniquity’’ of using another person’s name without authority—although I knew jolly well that G. B. S. had put him up to it. + > - 7 Next day Shaw wrote to me: ““M. has written me a terrified apology. You have evidently made his soul tremble. As a matter of fact, | was not taken in. I guessed the state of. the case; but as his questions were well planned and his stationery was that of a poor man I thought I might as well do him a good turn. It is quite a common game for people to send up a card with the name of some well-known person on it and, if I see them, to ask for loans of money. So M.’s procedure did not seem to me at all dishonest — quite Quixotic, in fact, by compari- son.”’ That is Shaw, the man. (Copyright, 1930.) Every Book of.

Sees girls pause to look at him and hears their giggles. Girls with their hair whacked off at the ears and their legs exposed below their knees. Strange land, he thinks, strange land where women cling to children’s dresses and wear their hair like men. “Look at your hat! Full of holes.”” The marshal says it with a jerk of his head upward. Who The folks standing around stare at Anse’s hat. ‘“‘Butlet holes,’ says a voice. “Of course bullet holes,’’ says the marshal. What's your name?”’ “T air Talt Allen’s boy,’’ says Anse. The marshal wrinkles his brow. Seems to ponder over the name, then shakes his head. “Never heard o’ this Talt Allen. Who’s he?’’ The spectators glaiced at one another, then back at the marshal. A man in’riding pants and may ‘boots takes “the marshal by: t ‘ sleeve and whispers in his ear. Anse watches the face that is whispering... Seems to him he has seen this moon-shaped face before with its-buttonlike nose and small ears. Somewhere he has seen the short, squatty body. The hill man’s mind goes back to his pap- py’s lookout on Porky Ridge. The background of the gap suddenly slides in behind the man who is whispering. to the marshal. Half a year since Anse saw this face through the -old spyglass, ,since this «moon poked itself through the gap, through the door of Anse’s pappy’s domain and peered up the forested slope. Long time since this squatty body led men up the trail to his pappy’s” still and was stopped by a shot from his pappy’s hog rifle that took off the prohibition man’s hat. ‘ Anse remembers the weeks and weeks that he and his pappy and brother were hemmed in by this Federal man and his gang that loafed in Milk Sick Cove settle- -ment waiting for the Allens to come out; waiting for the chance to nab Anse’s people when they had come out for provisions, not knowing that the Allens can stand siege for ten years if necessary. Now the whispering stops. The Government man. steps forward with the marshal, stands in front of Anse with the town officer and looks the hillman over, sizes him up from head to foot. “So you are Talt Allen’s boy,” says the Federal man. ‘Guess you’re running your dad’s eorn juice into this town.” The Federal man turns to the marshal and the bystanders. “This: Talt Alien’s notorious. * z a . ° . ’ : , —_ < t . j out ~~ Ve. ai 3 ad , It takes hardihood and. self good / TINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JUNE. 29. 1930. is little to remind use of any Fourth of July celebration we ever took part in, nevertheless it | he this very old woodcut there serves to recall the simplicity which prevailed in our own child- hood as compared with that of today in the matter of honoring our Nation’s birthday. In our small town and in our school the pupils were trained during the last days of the term to recite patriotic “pieces,” and the readers were thumbed through _. to find. stirring selections from the orations of Henry Clay, Daniel . Webster and euch great Ameri- cans. Often the most finished orator of the class was chosen by the committee of arrangement to CELEBRATING IN THE OLD DAYS. repeat the speech following the reading of the Declaration of In- dependence on the great day be- fore the multitudé in Taylor’s Grove. Of course, there was a parade, one pleasing feature of which was a wagon load of little girls personifying the States. Streets were not paved in those days and the wagon eprings had known hard service, but we managed to maintain our equi- librium on the tiered seats .and to escape sunstroke in the torrid Illinois sunshine: During my long apprenticeship, beginning with Rhode Island and ending with Texas, neither I nor any of my comrades suffered any harm. And I believe we did feel, for the time being, at any rate, that America was depending on us to do our duty and that her well being was largely in our hands. Intermit- tently throughout the day there were firecrackers, but oh, what a meager supply compared to that of the least opulent child of today. And such feeble little crackers they were, too—hardly more sat- isfying than the “torpedos"’ which most parents considered the only, suitable patriotic’ instrument for little girls. Such was a typical Fourth of July before league ball games and automobile races made life more exciting, if less pro- longed. However, comparisond are odious and, what is worse, prove nothing.

Scowls at him and lowers the-corner of his mouth. “‘Never .thought I'd lay eyes on you. We're going to look you over. If there’s not a stir in this coun- try I’m another. Hand over that blunderbuss gun.”’ “Got a moonshiner,” voice in the crowd. “Six bullet holes in his old hat. Count ’em!” says another. .When a hillman is hard pressed he thinks quickly. He is a strate- gist born. He can seem dumb but his eyes are as quick as a fox’s. When the Federal man’s hand reaches forth to receive the rifle- gun, the big bore Winchester, a voice in the crowd says: “Those fellows can cut off a turkey’s hat at a hundred yards.”’ “Come on, hand ‘er over!’ says the Government man. says a vi? lose confidence in yourself and you'd be a beaten woman before you even started looking for the keys .

You can put one Both the prohibition man and the marshal step back as Anse throws up the muzzle of the Win- chester and covers them. The marshal tries to edge step by step toward the street, makes a move- ment toward his hip, but is stop- ped by Ause’s sudden throw of the gun on a line with the town of- ficer’s abdomen. As if from. the onslaught of a wave the crowd moves back into two parts, leaving an opening in front of a business store door. From the corner of his eye Anse sees the storekeeper start to close the door and makes a bound for it, reaches the door and‘turns once more to send the hands of the marshal and the Federal man up. Several others in the crowd throw up their arms. Backing now, and holding the two officers outside, Anse reaches a rear window. He sees the store- keeper behind the counter, his eyes looking over a bolt of dry goods; sees the faces of the two officers beyond the door and the unmovable life on the sidewalk and the street, the crowd frozen. During the seconds that it takes to back .to the window these things fill his eyes. As he throws a leg backward over the windowsill he sees the marshal and the Federal man reach for guns. And he sees another man running forward from the other side of the street carrying a rifle. He can see the bolt, knows the rifle is one of those far-reaching Mausers. He fires once, bringing down the lamp over the door and sending hands up. The deputy running across the street stops. The drop from the sill of the ‘ye ya.

He gains the far side of. the house as the officers come out of the store window and,as the crowd peers out of back doors or win- dows of other store buildings. He crogses the road in front of the house and runs for an elm grove as shouts come. When he reaches the heart of the woods he ducks behind a tree and looks back. Sees the arms of the children and the woman, still pointing in his direction as the officers and the More venturesome of the crowd gather together and talk. From tree to tree Anse retreats, Sighted by the officers, who open fire, he increases his speed. He hears weak thuds of revolver bullets as they strike the trees in his vicinity. When the Mauser begins to crack he becomes niore cautious. The bulleta from it strike near. One, whistling past his ear, makes him pause behind a large elm tree. Now he sees the posse spreading, making a wide circle around the woods, throwing a cordon. Anse can see the edge of the woods beyond, and in the center of a grove a large blue and white house; big house with porches. Beyond the house the land dips. The tops of the sycamores tell him there is a creek back of the house. There is laurel and there is rhododen- dron; there ie greenbrier.

A lot of experts hed buried the small town, you know, as a place in which only a few last survivors lived.

About twice a month in the summer he would be awak- ened by a toud crash, and im- mediately after find a sedan full of strangers in bed with him.

And as I was saying,-all the intelligent small-towners have moved far back from the highways, which is why these places look so aban- doned.”” “Country scenery has certainly changed," mused Dummer. “All you see on the side of a state road ¢hese days are gasoline stations, hot dog stands, ye way- side luncheonettes and Bill’s We Fix Flats garage. The people who predicted a big falling off in smali town populations merely counted the help in these plaees as they whizzed by.’ continued the Sena- tor. “Do the returns show the small towns gaining?” asked Dummer. éé ELL, yes and oe. You can't put all small towns in one class, but they are by no means being abandoned or even neglect- ed. The inhabitants just play safe and pull in their necks when they hear the roar of a motor. As tong as this country lasts there will al- ways be a charm to the small town that can be found no place else, and there wiil be more and more people who will appreciate it.” “It looks to me as if the more people make money in the big cities the more they want to-buy homes in the small towns,”’ said Dummer. er a" “That’s certainly true of the small towns within easy distance of larger communities,” went -on the senator. . “It’s: the old. circle.

Finally she came to a pause at a brilliantly lighted window of a toy shop. The beautiful dolls delighted her, as she had made the clothes they wore. Jenny Wrenn, as this was her name, had only one relation and this was her feeble old grandfather whom she supported. Jenny's only beauty was her golden hair which hung in curls down to ther waist, covering her poor, afflicted foack. She never dared to go out in the daytime, as the boys would throw stones at her. As Jenny turned to go back to the Bhabby little house, she saw a pa- thetic little figure on the corner, cry- ing as though its heart would break, s0 Jenny walked up to him and said in a kindly voice, “What is the mat- ter, little one, have you no home?” The child answered in a high squeaky little voice. “No,” he said, “nor din- mer either.” “What is your name?” “Mine is Joe.” “Jenny is my name,” NO ev » \ ‘ wy ‘ ANN NAAM Ls Nene WY A she told him. “Will you come home - _ > _———w Oo oe. + a Cc i ct ty ae te with ‘me- and If will ‘give you some.

To her amazement there stood a lady in rich silks with a servant. “Have you by chance seen a little boy, who calls himself Joe?” She asked, in a low, sweet tone. “Yes,” Jenny said, in a frightened tone. “Would you like to see him?” “I guess I would,” said the lady, smiling. “He is my son.” Joe came forward and jumped into the lady's arms and said, “Mother, dear, I shall not run away any more.” And he didn't. But you must not think that Jenny and her grandfather were forgotten. No, indeed, Jenny was sent to a love- ly school, where no one teased her or made her unhappy, but were kind and good to her. Her grandfather was sent to a home for old folks and Jenny saw him twice a week. Little Joe and Jenny had many happy times together. FLORENCE MARIE NASH (age 11). Washington, D. C. eg re rae .

Two children, a boy and a girl of about 13 were talking earnestly. The two children were Guy and Diana Gilbert, son and daughter of a wealthy cotton mill owner in Louisiana. “Let's try it some day. next week,” suggested Diana. , “Aw, why don’t you say next year an’ be done with it?” Guy seemed to be disgusted. “When .would you suggest?” in- quired Diana, ignoring her brother's outburst. “Phil said they were going up to- w.” . right, then tomorrow. Oh, what did that horrid teacher give us for homework?” inquired Diana. as footsteps were heard ap- proaching. When the door opened and the mother poked her head in she saw her two model children studying the map im a dangerous- looking geography book. While our young friends are so stu- diously doing their lessons, let me tell you what this mysterious “it”. was. After many arguments with their worthy parents, the children had been told that they positively could not go up with their friend Phil Albion and his father in the latter’s aeroplane, and they were planning secretly to do so anyway. When the mother didn’t leave the room the two put their heads togeth- er again. “We'll have to tell Phil and his father that mother and dad said we could go.” said Diana. “ "Course.” “But how'll we get an excuse for being out so late,” Diana, the prac- tical one asked. “I dunno.” “Well, I reckon it’s up to me to think one up, but you'll have to make it.” px , “That's. understood: | am, spokesman ‘of':this outfit,” -boasted Guy. “And I supply the brains,” added Diana. . “Hurry up and concoct some excuse for me to make to mother,” ordered Guy. who didn’t like any reflection made on his brains. “Well, you could tell her a—a—er.” “She'd say, ‘what’s wrong with you anyway, what do all those noises mean?’” answered Guy roguishly. “You knew I was thinking.” snapped his sister. “So I did, so I did, keep on think- ing, you may have thought something up by tomorrow night.” Diana ig- nored her brother’s remarks and kept on thinking. “I have it!” she at last exclaimed. “What, the mumps?” “No, the idea.” “Shoot, the suspense is awful.” “I will if you behave.” “All right, hurry up before you for- get it.” “Well, it’s this; you know mother promised to let us go to the movies this week.

JUNE 29, 1930. Scientia Et Tempus “For I dipped into the future, far as human eye could see, Saw the vision of the world and all the wonder that would be.” This extract from Tennyson's fa- mous poem of “Locksley Hall” brings to mind that we all would like to “dip into the-future” and watch the ad« vancement of science through the years. For who is there wito lacks the curiosity, interest and imagina- tion to wonder about the future? Intet:igence and imagination in- crease in man as he becomes more perfect and higher civilized through the ages. Perhaps the cave man did not won- der sbrut what the morzsow would bring; ‘he lived only in the present of his day. Tien later he began to plan for days ahead, weeks ahead, seasons whead, and finally, as he progressed up the scale of civilization, he plan- ned for years ahead. So it has been on through the ages; each decade witnesses man looking a little farther over the horizon. Not only does he see the sunrise, but he catches the faintest gleams of light that herald the dawn of enlightment and knowledge. We should think, wonder, and hope regarding the future, for we can bulld on the present by making theories on the future. Huxley has truly said, “Those who refuse to go beyond fact rarely get as far 9s: Tact.” i tee Tt? we . build ‘ont the nt, with facts only, we ll not or per- fect our work %o a high degree. We may finish to qa degree and call the work a success, but we want to per- fect the problem to a higher degree and ultimately to_the highest degree of success that can be obtained. Therefore, let us not only muse on the past and act in the present but let us use to our advantage the fu- ture. CONWAY BRAWNER (age 14). 1724 Duke street, Alexandria, Va. By th Tv enPson ior e The Lyre Bird The lyre bird is one of the most remarkable of Australian birds. It receives its mame from its beautiful and extraordinary tall, which in the male resembles the ancient lyre. When erect its tail is about two feet long, but is not perfected until the bird has reagped its fourth year. It is displayed ‘to. its advantage while the bir@ is courting. In this respect it is like the peacock and the turkey. The nest is unusual. It is bullt on the ground, is well woven, and is dome shaped, with an entrance on one side. Only one egg is deposited. These birds are sweet singers, rapid runners and good mimics. The size is about that of a small fowl, and the plumage is somber. RUTH STAPLES (age 12). Dahigren, Va. Kind Ways Be Very kind to the sick; In case-of emergency be quick. It makes you to hear the rain, And think of sick one lying in pain, And lay there all the day In the very worst way. Give them what you don't need; That's the way to make a good lead. They'll thank you in some way, For they will not delay. They'll love you with all thier heart, And never, never want to part. Give them books About flowing brooks. Give them milk that makes them healthy. Just ike money makes them wealthy. When you are sick in some day They'll pay you back in another way.

Many times have I seen her? I am thankful that I have the power to rejoice in her. We are blind if we do not see her; not physically blind, but mentally so.

Out the green and black waters rose a hazy form in the shape of a woman. I saw her face, but I can only remember her eyes. Something burned in them like a flame that nothing could extinguish. And in her jade and black eyes leaped and sparkled the waters. She was gone tn an instant, but many a night I have lain awake as those piercing eyes haunted me. She is everywhere. In mud she is there. In cold, in warmth, she is always there. Nothing can extinguish the flame that burns forever within her. Nothing, save hate and savagery and ugliness. Her soul is the soul of —— God. She burns forever within a soul that knows God. Who is she? Beauty? Perhaps, who can tell? ANNETTE TEMIN (age 12). 1501 Pennsylvania avenue southeast. Florence Nightingale There are many things that the Red Cross Society did for us. The starting of it was over in Eu- rope. Florence. Nightingale was the first to start it. In some war over there she went to the battlefield with some helpers and took the wounded to a home, dressed their wounds, and fed them. Then the Red Cross started over here. Among the thou- sands of people to help the society was President Hoover. He gave med- als of award to them and many other things similar to thab. In the past few years the Red Cross has been more important to us. Why? Because they helped us so much in the World War. When the dead and wounded were lying on the battlefield the Red Cross went there and re- moved them to a hospital. They dressed their wounds and saved them from death. It was only a few years ago that Florence Nightingale died. Think! There would have been no Red Cross now if she hadn't invented it. I know, and you know, we would not have won s@ many wars ff it hadn't been f the wonderful Red Cross of America. EUGENE K. LLOYD (age 11).

John had a habit of teaching Prince to save people and sometimes he would fall and pretend he was very badly hurt. Soon.»Prince would 4 SC F “~~ SCHOOLS OUTS. see him and would run for help. One day after playing with Prince, John took him out with him. Keeping his mind on Prince, he soon walked far away from home. It grew very cold and John turned toward home. Soon a blizzard passed over. John was only a small child and was not used to this weather be- cause this was his first time out alone and he fell to the ground uncon- scious. Prince saw him and barking at the top of his voice tried to wake him in vain. He then ran home to find help. When John’s father saw Prince and did not see John he knew something had happened so he and John's larger brother followed Prince to the. place where John jhad uncon- sciously. fallen, By, 6 time John had been covered up: inee khew this and dug Until John’s blouse could be seen. John's father picked him up and carried him home. After reaching home and being warmed a bit John became al] right and he said, “I wouldn't sell Prince for all of the money in the world. After this happened Prince saved many people and was awarded many prizes LEWINS VENEY (age 11). 2529 P street northwest. Byrd (Honorable Mention.) “Undaunted Byrd,” ah, what a name!

My favorite player on the Washing- ton Baseball Team is a man who, for all-round baseball ability, I think is unexcelled among the outfielders in the American League today. His full name is Edgar Charies Rice, but he is known to affectionate Capital fans only as “Sam,” or “Sammy” Rice. Born in Morocco, Ind., on the twen- tieth of February, 1892, he first played professionally in~1914, as a pitcher, when Petersburg, of the Virginia League, bought his release from the Navy, in which Sam had enlisted as a fireman. In 1915, he was bought by Washington for a reported price of $800. His good work at bat prompted the Washington management to use him in the outfield, and in 1917 Rice's status was established when in 155 games as an outfielder for the Na- tionals he stole thirty-five bases, and ended the season with a batting mark of 302. Still with the same team, Sam has amassed an enviable total of more than 300 stolen bases; and has hit well over the 300 mark. At 38, an age when most players are about ready to retire, Rice is playing the best game of his life. He is “right up with the leaders in batting, and leads the league in stolen bases. (Sam is still one of the fleetest mea on the Washington team.) Sam Rice is not only one of the best outfielders in the American League; he is ssed of an un- usually fine character. Walter Jonn- son, his manager, refers to Rice's re- cent statement that “hitting is all luck” and expresses his opinion of the veteran outfielder thus: “If Sam has any luck, it is because he is lucky enough to realize that clean living e is playing the he is supposed ‘to curl up and retire. Sam is one of baseball's model play- ers.” This statement of Johnson's probably holds the key to the ques- tion which is in the minds of basebell fans, “How is Rice, in his 39th year, able to held his place among the best outfielders in the American League?” DONALD CHRISTIE (Age 15). 3236 McKinley street northwest. The Old Swimming Hole The silvery pool lying in the thickets of the meadow gives a beautiful scene. The grass of green, the tall swaying trees and the sweet melodies of the skylark and various voices of many birds. When one looks back to childhood one thinks of the pleasures of the old swimming hole. While in swimming some one who hed a grudge would tie clothes in knote and soak them -in water. The hole was surrounded by trees full of green leaves and bushes and vines packed with leaves, while the sun shines right on the litle spot. The trees and grass and bushes all refiect in the pool as if it were a sheet of glass. Those were happy days.

JUNE 29, 1930. THE JUNIOR POST SECTION PAGE § ~ Time to ‘Attain Esquire Rank Is Cut to 8 Weeks Knighthood Rites _Bytton and New Reminder Card Will Be Given to Qualified Pages on Saturday Of Ancient Times Were Impressive Ceremony of the Older Chivalry Is Traced to Later Years. In the older chivalry (called by French writers l’'ancienne Chevalerie) the ceremony of knighting was as follows: The vassal knelt before his lord, and placing his hands in that of the lord, promised to become his man and to serve him in conquest and defend him in battle. He then removed his sword and spurs and took the oath of fidelity. In returz for this allegiance, the vassal re- ceived a piece of land to hold “in fief.” This was the form of chivalry in use at the time that Charlemagne was ruler, late in the eighth and early in the ninth centuries. (This would be 300 years after the time when King Arthur is supposed to have lived.) About 1100, or 300. years after Charlemagne’s time, free knighthood came into practice. This was a better form of knighthood from the knight's point of view because he had more freedom and less restriction. In the ancient chivalry the knight must serve his lord whenever and wherever the lord willed, even for a whole life- time. In the newer form the knight had to give but 40 days’ service each year. The rest of the time he could ride where he listed and do as he pleased. You can see that this would en- courage chivalry as we have read of % in novels and romances. The knight, having served his lord, might find himself in a distant country, with his way home to win. What an incen- tive to adventure! The knighting ceremony itself now became less strict and more religious in mature. The vaseal no longer knelt before the lord, but vowed hom- age while standing and while wearing his spurs and sword, and with one hand resting on ‘the Evangels. The very fact that the knight could wear his sword and spurs meant a great deal at that time, for these were the badges of his manhood and his valor. When they. were removed in the an- cient ceremong, they signified that he dofed his own nobility and became merely the instrument of another's will. When he wore them in the new- er ceremony, he retained all his own courage and cheracter. There is One thing that must be noticed in this newer chivalry. No man could become a knight under the freer code unless his fathers had been feudal vassals. That is, only the des- cendants of the knights of the older order could become knighté in the later system. When Darkness Comes.

Summer wil] come at last * gled with the cheers of the Recruiting Blanks Bring- ing in New Members, But More Are Wanted. HE Junior Post editor who has charge of the Enighthood of Youth for this paper is very anxious to have all the pages go 100 per cent over the top into the second rank of esquire. We have thought the matter over carefully and come to the conclusion that the period of sixteen weeks for pages should be shortened. Four months is rather long for boys ~ and girls to stay in one rank and keep up the reminder cards faithfully.. In Utah, where the Knighthood of Youth also flourishes, it has been cut to eight weeks for each rank. There- fore, any page who has marked his or her reminder card faithfully every night for eight weeks may bring it to The Junior Post editor next Satur- day in the library of The Washington Post Building any time between -10 a. m. and 2 p. m. and exchange it for en esquire card. Bring 5 cents with you for the new reminder card and esquire button. ~ Hereafter when a page has kept his card for four weeks without missing “a night, he may bring it down to The Junior Post editor, who will award him a fine shield of honor and the halfway rank of aid, which means in four weeks more he will be a proud esquire. So get busy, pages of the Knighthood of Youth. Complete your cards according to these new rules and let's see the list of brand-new es- quires grow as if by magic. Now and then we hear from pages asking us for ways to remember their reminder cards at night. There is the never failing plan of hanginy your card where you can not fail to see it when you get resriy for bed. Have a small pencil attached to the card, and in two minutes your little task is done. Some of the children fasten the chart to the head of their bed and mark it before they climb into it, just before they turn out the light. Others like to mark it in the family circle. with brothers and sisters 21)! morking their cards at tle same time. These children usually keep their cards in the living room, where every- one can see them. Other children’ write us and ask how they can, earn, the 30 cents for the page. button .and ‘card.’ »Her some ways & ‘friend ‘ligt’ us abofst Bring fn’ the papér an ‘a keep the front porch swept and clean for a week.

That is, the ones at the doors of the houses. He got 10 cents a box and soon had enough not only to join the Enight- hood but to start a thrift savings account as well What a thrilling thing it gas last week for 60 many of The Washington Post Knights of Youth to see Admiral Byrd; a modern knight of the air, while he was in Washington, or to hear him over the radio or to see him in motion pictures. Of course, you can not see Sir Gala- had, King Arthur, Joan of Arc and other wonderful knights of yesterday, but if you keep your eyes wide open you -will see knights of today all about you. The spirithood of knight- hood is not lost and that is why the Washington Junior Post is so anx- ious to have you learn the rules of knighthood. When the time come to prove “yourself a —. knight and true” the training you have had in the Knighthood of Youth will be a great help to you. The recruiting membership. bianks are bringing us some new members, but not enough as yet with which to start our rol] of honor. So get busy, member, find a boy or girl in your neighborhood you can sign up. Re- member, the first one to bring in ten new pages wins a fine new $1 bill for his reward. Cut out the recruiting membership blank in your Junior Post today and start after your recruit. Tell him how much fun you have found in it. Get busy. That is your quest. To find at least one new member within ‘he n@xt two weeks. Just think, if every one of our 3,000 members of the Knighthood of Youth got @ven one new member, our ranks would double almost overnight. Here is some evidence of how the Knighthood of Youth plan works when it is given 4 real trial. Bernard Howard, of 689 L street southeast. writes to us in sending in for his shield of honor: ‘I am a member of the Knighthood of Youth. I have fin- ished marking my card. I have care- fully watched my habits and marked them on and tried to make them petter. “I did not send my chart in sight weeks ago because I did not know that you were to mark eight wecks and send them in and then mark the other eight weeks until a. member, » tally me.

Pretty Pillows Made of Paper Simple and Inexpensive, They Are Great Fun; One a Flower. How would you like to make the clever paper boudoir pillows that are being made at severa) of the city playgrounds? They are very simple and inexpensive, but are great fun. We saw one Wednesday that was very lovely. To make of crepe paper a boudoir pillow that resembles a great flower, follow these directions: From crepe paper of the chosen shade (rose, purple. orange or deep blue are pretty), cut strips 2 inches‘wide. Cut each strip into scallops an Inch deep and 1'%4 inches wide. This leaves at the bottom of each scallop a piece 1 inch deep that is not cut. Using a knitting needle or nail, curl the edges of each scallop by wrap- ping them tightly around the needle and then slipping the needle out of the roll. Make several yards of petals, the exact amount depending on the size of your cushion. From your crepe paper cut a circle 12 inches in diameter, or larger if you wish. Upon this circle draw a number of rings, each 1% inches from the preceding. Start with a circle 3 inches in diameter. The next circle must be 6 inches, the next one 9 inches. , - * Sew ‘your. strips, of petale around these circles. PA — What Happened on First Fourth of July | By ANN McNEIL, 1438 Iris Street, Aged 14. (Awarded $1 Prize.) Bang! went the street door and an excited boy’s voice called upstairs to Mrs. Dunkin, where she sat sewing with her daughter, Julia. “Mother, I’m going down the street. There is great excitement. Ask Julia _if she wants to go with me.” With this Ralph was gone. “All pight, mother, I think I'll go. You don’t need me now. I'll be back in a little while.” And Julia ran off. As she walked rapidly down the street she wond what could hap- pen that would pleasant, since everything was so terrible now with. father away fighting. She thought-of many things, but the one she thought most was that maybe the war was over and if that was true father would be e soon. As she won- dered she nted to find out more, so she looked all around and then, picking up her skirts, she ran. Turn- ing a corner, she came upon a crowd. It was a huge-crowd. Mothers had brought their little babies, wives had lowered the fire under their jam, workmen dropped their hammers and little children left their mud pies to find out what was the matter. Fi- nally the crowd quieted down and a man came upon the platform. He be- gan to read the Declaration of Inde- ndence. Julia stood there and eard those wonderful words of that wonderful document, and, like many of the others, she was greatly moved. The man read in a slow and impres- sive voice and Julia cheered mightily with the others. As the mam jumped down from the platform the tolling of a great bell could be heard min- Julia went home and told her mother of the grand news. That night eyery one in the city was out. Torches burned, people went around crying the glad news and the innkeepers gave food. There were many feasts and every one en- tnroughout-;tbat., high, eould ~, that b,* t : heard, the , da ihe Liberty Bell, and the 7 ines peaceful And Years later, when Julia was a grandmother, she told her grandchil- dren of the time when she heard the Declaration of ny read to the public in Philadeiphia. And as a crowning joy she told them that she had seen John Hancock and Thomas Jefferson at the feast of that mem- orable night when the Liberty Bell tolled the glad tidings to the people. ——_ —_ By ELIZABETH WELCH, Alexandria, Va., Aged 15. (Honorable Mention.) Liberty! The most prized posses- sion of man! On July 4, 1776, the struggling Colonies of America shouted them- selves hoarse when it was declared they were to try to gain this best of all gifts. “Ring, O bell of Liberty, ring—for is this not the day on which we pledge ourselves to fight for our free- dom? Ring out and proclaim the giad news, for soon we will be free!” And the bell did ring, keeping time to the deafening shouts of the joy- filled people. Women with tear-bright eyes cheered; strong, brave young men tried to choke down the lumps rapid- ly rising in their throats, while old grandfathers, forgetting their white- haired dignity, flung their canes into the air and Tustily shouted words of thanksgiving. and gladness. The wildly cheering crowd did not stop. te think of the many and hardships they had to face before they found their precious in- dependence. e thought of the great number of brave soldiers that would give their lives In this cause did not shadow the joy of this day. = “Give me Liberty or give me Death!” There was not a person who did not echo those ever-living words in his heart. The name of Thomas Jefferson was on every one’s lips. “He wrote the document that means the beginning | They And they did, after a long and weary struggle during which they almost decided the price was too great to pay, even for the much- desired liberty. But they bravely kept on until, several years later, after the surrender of Cornwallis, they were finally declared free and independent States. And now those free and independ- ent States are joined together in one United States, the greatest country in the world. By EVELYN M. CARPENTER, Clarendon, Va. Aged 13. (Honorable Mention.) At the beginning of the Revolu- tionary War the colonists had not ex- pected to be free from British rule; in fact, they did not wish to be. All they asked was that they might be fairly treated. But since they had be- gun to fight they had grown more and more convinced that nothing less than perfect independence of the mother country ought to satisfy them. Then the leading men of the colo- nies met together -t Philadelphia to draw up a writing in which they de- clared themselves no longer subject to English rule. Five men—Thomas Jef- férson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston—were appointed to write it out, and when this was done every man in Congress signed it. It had been agreed that as soon as the Declaration was adopted the old bell-man should ring the big Liberty Bell that hung @m the tower of the old Statehouse, in order that the great throng of people outside might know it. This took place on July 4, The ‘old bell-man had taken his place up in the tower, and directed his little grandson to tell him when the time came to ring the bell. Mes- sengers were sent in every direction to spread the news in all villages and towns. The boys lighted fires, the cannons blazed, and sr the ‘1776. er, a free Nation. That from our minds all cares Isabella of Spain Revered by World As Queen Knight Aided Columbus to Make Cruise Discovering America. Most members of the Knighthood of Youth, no matter how small, know that we owe our native land, the United. States of America, to Christo- pher Columbus, who sailed tprough unknown seas to discover this new world. But many of us do not stop and think of the Lady Enight who helped this “Admiral of the Ocean.” This Lady Enight was a queen, Queen Isabella She lis- tened most Columbus told her of go forth and find the great enchanted forests, lakes, green fields and moun- tains which are so beautiful to ue today. Of course he was a very brave knight. It takes much bravery to leave all the things one knows about flag t Columbus was @ wise knight for while most of other people of his time thought the world was fiat; he she was beautiful and good, listened to the tales the Enight Columbus hag to tell until she, too, began to be- we all know very well it is today. So good was the queen knight that she paid ——— to go on the field to care for the wounded. Of course, we have them today. In those days it was very unusual and was con< sidered a very charitable and thought-« ful act of this queen who lived in an age when many people though only of themselves. Queen Isabella persuaded her hus< band, King Ferdinand, that Colum< bus was right and that it would be very nice for the flag of Spain to be the first to be carried around thé round world. She persuaded him not to listen to the people of she court who did not want Isabella and Ferdinand to spend money sending Columbus on a voyage She said that she would send the great knight on his quest with enough ships and food if she had to pawn her jewels. It would have been too bad if she had had to be a queen without a jeweled crown, and rings). But the queen waited wirh gteat excite- ment for his return to tell her all about the enchanted seas and lands the Knighthood of Youth knoys that Columbus did not go all the way, the world, but that he dis- permit the Indians who lived in the new world to be brought back t@ Spain as slaves.

Save Something Every Day, Motto Of Thrifty Pages Rockefeller’s Dimes Gifts Meant Nothing Else to Donor. John D. Rockefeller, sr., often called the richest man in the world, has a habit of giving shiny, new dimes to friends and acquaintances and to boys and girls he meets in the course of his travels. The reason this man gives away the dimes is that he wants people to be thrifty—that is saving, of money, time and other things of value. Every page and esquire of the Washington Post, Knighthood of Youth, should learn the value of money and of other property. Therefore, write on your reminder cards this question: “Have I saved anything today?” Now, that need not mean money, because while it is a splendid thing to save, yet, suppose you have not been given money or earned money on a particular day, how could you save ie Yet in nearly every home there are things which may be saved, day by day. What about that extra slice of bread which you took on your plate, buttered, and then did not eat the emaliest bit of it? That was not being thrifty or saving in any sense of those words. A good rule is only to take on your plate what you feel you will be able to eat. To take more is to waste good food which has cost your parents money to buy. Another way to save is by taking care of your clothes. I have seen boys, and girls, too, throwing mud balls at each other and playing other pranks which meant the ruin of their clothes. A good knight takes care of his armor and trappings. How pleased your mothers will be to Know that — are taking care of your clothes! ave strong, plain clothes to play in and keep your best clothes for Sun- day and when you go out with mother and father. Save your toys and playthings. A member of the Knighthood of Yor't”» will, I am sure, never be found in the group of children who destroy their toys and playthings through carelessness or rough handling of them. Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, widow of the late President, was given @ beautiful doll when she was a little girl many, Many years ago. When she grew up and married Tha@odore Roosevelt and'came to live at e White House she Brought her pet'doll with her, which she had kept for more than thirty years. The doll was well kept. Little Edith Kermit Carow, for that was her name before she married the man whod was to be President, never left her out in the rain, or threw her around the room, so the doll can be seen today in the National Museum at Washington in the Collection of Historical Costumes, just as fine looking as she was that Christmas morning long ago when she delighted the heart of her new owner Now we will get down to the ques- tion of saving money. If someone ives you 5 cents today, co you rush the store and spend it at once? Or do you put part of it in you hank? If you do, you will enjoy spending what is left of your gi gli the more. Try it and see. Then you can place @ fine big “X” after that question on your reminder card: “Have I saved @nything today?” Nobility.

It is thought that this game was invented by the ancient Greek scientist, Archimedes, and it is undoubtedly very old. It is called “Stomachion” in Greek and “Loculus” in Latin, and consists of fourteen differently shaped pieces, which may be put together to form the most amazingly lifelike pictures of people, animals and things. To make the Stomachion, first construct the diagram shown at the top. It may be cut out or traced and placed on cardboard, or if you want to make one of a different size, here is how to proceed: Draw a rectangle exactly twice as long as it is wide, and draw the line BM, cutting it in the middle.

Young Sipel, who will get a Congressional Medal with the other members of the Byrd party, told all about the penguins and seals and other animal life he saw in those dis- tant lands. The Junior Post Ajrship then went to Richmond and w Admiral Byrd given a beautiful sword from the State. In the crowd, watching the presentation, was an 8-year’ Sidney L. Shannon, of Fréderitks- burg, who has become heir to $1,500.- 000. This money was left him by his aunt, and I hope he takes fine care of it when it is paid to him when he is 21 years old and does much good with it. We gave Sidney a ride in the Junior Post Airship and as we flew over Fredericksburg he pointed out Ferry Farm, where George Wash- ington Mved when he was a boy of 6 until he was about 14 years old, The farm is to be bought and Kept as a national shrine in memory of the fine little boy who afterwards became the “Pather of His Country.” “Let's fly over the Atlantic Ocean now,” said the pilot- of the Junior Post Airship, and away we went. When we reached Italy we went to Genoa, where Christopher Columbus lived when he was a little boy. We watched them installing a beautiful - New “sea bell,” which will ring out often in memory of all those who have been lost at sea. Prince Hum- bert, of Italy, and Princess Marie Jose, his bride, were present. Way up in Norway we flew to watch Dr. Adolf Hoel, Norwegian explorer, prepare for a journey.to the North Polar regions this summer. Flying over Prance we saw the American flag on some warships in the harbor of Cherbourg. It was fly- “ing from the U. 8S. battelships Ar- kansas, Florida and Utah, which had 1,000 Annapolis midshipmen on a practice cruise. As the American war- ships came into the harbor the Cher- bourg arsenal] fired a salute to them. The midshipmen looked very happy and full of fun. We came back to America by the way of Canada. Passing Montreal we met an airship with A. M. Delamere as its pilot. He is an aerial fire fighter and had been out for sixteen hours fighting the fires in the forests around the Canadian city. Flying over Suffern we saw bands and parades and found out it. was the birthday party of Dan Beard, the oldest Boy Scout, who is 80 years young.

But pictures an- swer almost as well and are so easily gotten if you went them. The vireos are small birds. They like to stay among the branches of the trees and are insect eating. They have been called warbling flycatch- ers. They do look like warblers and they act like both warblers and fiy- catchers. They move about more slowly than the warblers and do not flit about so much. They catch in- sects on the wing like flycatchers but do not sit still until they fly by.

I have chosen a very simple piece for the first project, and ome which is always useful as well as ornamental to have. Besides making a comfortable seat in some Shady spot in the garden, it also adds much to the pleasing composition when properly placed. Garden furniture must stand a great deal of exposure to the weather: so for that reason you should use either white pine, cypress, fir or chestnut, for these woods stand up well outdoors, are easy to: work and can be gotten in mest localities. You will ‘require ‘ the’ ‘following pieces of wood, called stock: 4 pieces for the side, 1% by 10 by 14% inches. Two pieces for the feet, 2% by 3 by 20 inches. 1 piece for the stretcher, 144 by 3 by 37 inches. 2 pieces for the top rails, 1% by 2% by 12% inches. 1 piece for the brace, 1% by 2% by 12% inches. 2 pieces for the border, 1% by 1% by 21 inches. 2 pieces for the border, 1%, by 1% by 43 inches. A GARDEN BENCH 13 pteees for the seat strips, I by 1% by 39 tmches. Step No. 1—Getting out the stock: Most of the stock needed for this project can be purchased from local lumber yards, in the sizes given and all dressed (planed). A slight varia- tion in the thickness or width will not make a material difference. The sides, you will notice, are made up of two pieces glued together. Step No. 2—The sides: On a shcet of cardboard or heavy paper lay out the full-size pattern of one-half of the side piece. Cut out this pattern and transfer the curved outlines to the wood. Make the dowel joints, then lay out the cut-out diamond- shaped design. Before glueing the side pieces together, however, cut out this diamond-shaped figure. Now glue the two sides, using casein glue, which is out the curved outlines and: smooth up the rough saw cuts with a spoke shave, chisels, gouges and cabinet files. Step No. 3—The feet: Lay out the curved ends of the feet and also the cut-out portion at the bottom. Cut this out and smooth up the edges, just as you did the side pieces. Step No. 4—The sides (continued): Securely fasten the feet to the sides from the under side, with screws as indicated; you will note that. the entire head of the screw is counter- sunk for a depth of about 1 inch. Use the No. 9 auger bit for this and the No. 9 twist bit for boring the first plece—that is, the foot piece. _, waterproof. After, the glue has.set cut . Step No. 5—The joints: Make the mortise and tenon joints for the two top rails and the stretcher, as shown om the drawing. Step No. 6—The seat: The seat, a4 you will notice, is made up of nar- row strips with \%-iInmch Diocks as voids, to fill in at both ends and the center portion. The reason for this type of construction is to prevent water from settling on the top and at the same time to avoid any splitting or warping, due to a solid large plank, To conceal this open type construc- tion at the ends, a border is nailed around the outside with a rounded edge, which at the same time, will make the bench more comfortable to sit on. Step No. 7—Sandpapering: Thor- oughly sandpaper all parts with No. 1%, sandpaper, using’ a scrap block to fol the'sandpaper on;- slightly round sharp edges. Step No. 8—Finish: Apply a prime coat of white lead paint or lead and zinc paint, mixed with raw linseed oil and about one-third turpentine and sufficient drier; should you pre- fer to do so, buy a ready mized outside paint instead. When the paint is dry putty all nail holes and defects with white lead putty. Apply @ second coat of paint, which should contain more oil and less turpentine. When dry and hard (allow about a week or ten days) give the job the final coat, being careful to brush out the paint to prevent runners. (Copyright, 1930.) flies about. The vireos are all about warbler size and the red-eyed is the largest... The dark streaks on its head will help you to know it. None of the others have them. The warbling vireo is about the plainest-colored bird in this coun- try. Above it is ashy olive green, and beneath it is yellowish white. It has no markings of any kind, not even bars on its wings. The other vireos are the white-eyed, the yel- low-throated and the solitary. They all act more or less alike, but their songs differ enough to help namethe birds. Mr. Forbush has told us so much about the usefulness of birds. It was through the red-eyed vireo that he began to learn how useful they WINNERS The following are the winners in the Color and Bird Centest as of June 15, Children under 9 years: First prize—DOUGLAS BRENER, 2000 A street northwest.

It sang a few notes and turned its head from side to side, looking carefully at the nearby leaves. Suddenly its song stopped. It flew to another twig, spatched « caterpillar from the underside of @ leaf, swallowed it and went on sing- ing. Every time it stopped singing it meant that a larva was captured. Many of the insects that it takes are those that are on the leaves and, on account of color and shape, are not easily seen. Most of the tree-birds catch the insects that fly, but the vireos take those that are quietly resting on the underside of the leaves. Its song passes away the time while it is searching the leaves. It does eat all kinds of insects and some wild fruit, as pokeberries, wild grapes arid the berries on the sassa- fras and prickly ash. The nest is hung between branches that form a fork. Strong strips of bark are woven firmly and smoothly into a little. cup, and so wrapped about the branches that almost the whole edge of the nest is fastened to the branches. It is lined with finer strips of bark of vines, plant down, spider webs and the silk of cocoons. Often a piece of newspa- per is used. The nests are quite often to be seen in low trees, and you may run across one that hangs over or beside a path through a woods, park or . The eggs are like so many others, white with a few spots of brown. I= spite of so many eggs being described im that way, they differ and a little study of them and the nests will help you tell which bird they belong to. The word vireo means “I am green.” Alt of these birds are more or less greenish. They are seen among the trees everywhere during the time they are here. The red-eyed is the most common about here and is often seen in the shade trees along the streets, but mostly in groves, parks and woods. It often comes down low and is for that reason better Known than the others that stay in the tops of the trees where they are taken for warblers. Its song is more of a chatter than a real song. Some one tells us that it says “Vireo, viree, viroo,” or “He- ho-who, he-ha-whip, he-he-whee.” Mr. Flagg has named this bird the preacher. He says the bird keeps on talking. It explains something in a few words and then make a little stop to give you time to think about what it has gaid, but not long enough for you to answer it. “You see it, you know it, Do you hear me? Do you believe it?” It sings during the middie of the day no matter how hot it is. The ‘ tones are loud and a little sharp. It may stop anywhere to catch an in- sect, and begins at the beginning when it has swallowed what it has ca t. 3 Both birds are with us from May to October and they sing most of that — time.

WASHINGTON POST ROTOGRAVURE SECTION, JUNE 29, 1930. hy this TASTE TEST that helped thousands find their favorite ginger ale... : S E C (extra dry) licquot Club GINGER ALES Hear the famous Clicquot Club Eskimos every Friday night at 9 o'clock, New York Time, over WEAF and associated stations. There are three types of ginger ale flavor . .. Golden, Pale Dry and Sec (extra dry). To know which one exactly suits you, we urge that you make “The Taste Test” described below HERE are three types of ginger ale flavor sold to- day. And Clicquot Club makes all three. All are different, all are delightful. But one of these ginger ales is sure to suit your taste better than either of the other two. And because it is not generally known that ginger ale comes in three dif- ferent flavors, we are urging people everywhere to test their tastes and find which flavor suits them best. As a result of making this simple test, thousands of people now get greater pleasure than ever before from drinking ginger ale. They have found the flavor that suits them perfectly. The Test—To make this test you go to your desler and get a bottle of Clicquot Club Golden, a bottle of Clicquot Club Pale Dry and a bottle of Clicquot Sec. Sample them all, one by one. Note the mellowness that is characteristic of them all. And note the difference in their flavor. Clicquot Club Golden has long been known as a de- lightful health beverage . . . Clicquot Club Pale Dry is famous for its flavor either in recipe drinks or alone . and Clicquot Sec for that luscious “drier” flavor. You are sure to find, in one of these ginger ales, ex- actly the flavor you have always been looking for. Same Quality Ingredients— Pure table sugar, fine Jamaica ginger, real fruit flavors and pure water from deep rock springs . . . these are the ingredients that go into all three Clicquot Club Ginger Ales. The difference in flavor comes from the difference in blend, for all these three have their own exclusive formula. As further evidence of their goodness and purity, all Clicquot Club Ginger Ales are put up in clean, new bottles. That means Clicquot Club uses only bottles which have never been used before. Aged Six Months in the Making—The rare, distinctive mellowness for which Clicquot Club Ginger Ales have long been famous, comes from ageing six months in the making. This process is a secret with the Clicquot Club Company—a carefully guarded secret known to the makers of no other ginger ale. That is why you can never expect to duplicate Clicquot Club flavor, never find it in any ordinary ginger ale. Therefore we urge you to go to your dealer and make “The Taste Test” today. It will show you beyond all question which ginger ale best suits your taste, and once you discover this you'll get greater pleasure than ever before from drinking ginger ale.
