CUSTOMS INSPECTORS HARD TO HOODWINK Last Year Luggage Entries at New York Netted U. S. $4,231,232. Ninety per cent of all Sn gl to smuggle in passengers’ baggege ate made by women. This fact, according to those Government officials who are concerned with the customs inspec- tion, takes on real poignancy as the return tourist season approaches. For, from the middle of August through September, the bulk of the approximately 150,000 persons who sailed abroad during the first half of 1960 will crowd the high seas for home. And 90 per cent of the mis- creants who will make things lively for the collector of the port, the cus- toms inspectors and the solicitor’s office are of the weaker sex. Only 10 per cent of all attempts to evade pay- ing duty originate with men. “Just what"is the explanation for this wmequal percentage of men and women offenders I do not know,” said George M. Brewer, assistant solicitor of customs in chargé of smuggling. “A woman does not, apparently, have the same attitude toward the tariff laws as does a man. After she has made her purchases abroad and paid money for them, she can not seem to satisfy herself that she should pay Uncle Sam’s customs duties on those game articles, especially if she has worn them already.” Irreproachable at Home. Illustrative of how women with ir- reproachable reputations in their home towns will stoop to lies, conceal- ment and all the other forms of dis- honesty necessary to evade paying baggage duty, is an incident that oc- curred a short time ago. A very high official in a Western State came to New York to meet his wife, who was returning from Europe. The customs inspector who had been assigned to examine the wife's luggage reported that he had found a quantity of un- declared merchandise in her trunks. The Western efficial, visiting the soOlicitor’s office for the hearing, was indignant at the charges. He and his wife had been married for 30 years, he asserted,.and during . that time his wife had shown herself un- failingly honest. In her home city she was identified with charitable organizations and was a leader in Sr greene ge and civic work. She ad ample funds to pay the duties and no reason to evade them. He stated his absolute certainty that whatever hie wife had told the cus- toms officers on the pier was true. The man was aghast when the of- ficers showed him the articles his wife had failed to declare and when they repeated to him the false state- ments she had made to explain her effects. This difference between husbands and wives on the question of hood- winking the tariff is brought out even more strikingly in an affair that oc- curred recently. A woman, whose luggage was being examined by in- spectors, claimed that the numerous new-looking articles of apparel and jewelry that filled her bags had been taken by her out of the United States. Now customs men check on every- thing that comes off a vessel arriving from foreign ports. While examining the mail the inspectors found a thick envelope addressed in her own hand to her own address. After persistent questioning concerming the bilis of sale of many of the articles which had been bought abroad. As she paid the $2,500 fine, twice the value of the items, she burst into tears. Her fur- ther remarks revealed that paying the fine only topped her list of grievances, which included the fact that her hus- band had not spoken to her since she told him of her intention to try to smuggle in the merchandise. Majority Are Honest. This article will be misleading if it conveys the impression that the majority of tourists attempt to cheat the tariff law. “The great majority of returning tourists make fairly honest declara- tions,” said Mr. Brewer. “On the other hand, a great many persons, aware that they are permitted to bring in merchandise up to $100 in value free of - make declarations for amounts hovering around that sum, but their luggage is found by our inspectors to contain articles, purchased abroad, a great deal higher in value. These people hope that the customs officers will overlook the ex- cess value, fail to recognize it. “Then there are the persons who deliberately conceal things. Our in- spectors sometimes find dutiable ar- ticles fo'ded into other garments, hid- den in the toes of shoes, tucked into the sleeves of apparel. We have found brand-new fur coats sewn into worn coats, in such e manner that the og ning of the new garment is made to like the lining of the old. We have found loose diamonds concealed in the lining of the collar of a man’s coat. “Some people attempt to’ disguise their new European garments by sew- ving in American labels. g ney ‘are usually betrayed by the fac. that the labels are old while the garments are new, and the one sewn into the other looks incongruous.

Al Glamis, Scotland, Aug. 9 (A.P.).— The Duchess of York, expecting her | second child, retired to her old home here, Glannis Castle, where Macbeth the story goes, killed Duncan. Should the baby be a boy, he will be in direct line for the throne of Britain while the Prince of Wales re- | mains unwed. Little Princess Elizabeth, ‘‘Lilybet,” the duchess’ first child, is now in line for the throne. The ancient castle was her home for many years before she married King George's second son. Glamis is the oldest inhabited cas- tle in Scotland. The first legend .which lends his- toric importance to the place is that Duncan was murdered there by Mac- beth, Thane of Glamis, in the crypt. | Macbeth’s sword and shirt of mail still hang in the armory. The estate came into possession of the duchess’ family in 1371. The castle, supposedly, is haunted by a “wicked earl” to this day. There is a secret room in the castle, known only to the possessor of the castle. his heir and his factor. OUTSIDERS WERE HATED Uprisings in China in recent weeks recall to older soldiers of the Army, the Boxer uprising in 1900, which reached its climax fust 30 years ago Thursday, when American and foreign troops stormed the city of Peking in an engagement that brought honors to Lieut. C. P. Summerall, now chief of staff, Others now well known who were given citations are Brig. Gen George P. Scriven, retired; Col. P. W. Guiney, Col. John BR. M. Taylor, all of this city, and Col, Joseph L. Gilbreth, of Bethesda, Md. The “Boxers” opposed the activ- ities of all foreigners in the country By June, 1900, the movement became a serious menace to foreigners in North China. The United States and other countries landed troops on the Chinese soil which enlisted the Chinese government’s aid the “Boxers” cause. ' Named “United Fists.” The term “Boxer” is of interesting derivation. The name of the society literally translated means “United Fists,” which led to the coining of the word “Boxers” by foreigners. To rescue Americans in Peking. to tion. the scene of a hideous gambling af- | fair, the hero of it being an Ear! of Strathmore. The legend, duly chronicled standard British reference books, goes that one Sabbath the old earl could get nobody to play cards with him. So he swore he would play with the devil himself. And the legend continued that the devil did show up and played a stormy game of cards with the old earl, who died soon afterward. He is supposed to haunt the secret room Ford Sees Motors On 10-Month Year which was protected by a huge wall. One of the most daring exploits in our history occurred on this day when a bugler, now Lieut. Col. Calvin P. Titus, climbed to the top of thé 40-foot wall and led the way in the face of heavy fire into the beleaguered city. All the foreign legations were in ruins. It was then decided that the troops would have to attack the imverial precincts of the city. It was in this campaign that the now Maj. Gen. Sumimerall won his honors, In order to reach their des- tination the troops had to break through a series of walled courtyards. Massive gates had to be broken down. Achievement of Summerall. Lieut. Summerall would bring his artillery to the front of the infantry, mow down the gates and permit the infantry to enter. One set of gates, made of baulks of timber and bossed with iron, resisted the projectiles of the flieldpieces. Summerall calmly signaled his guns to cease firing, walked forward and located the heavy crossbars that held them out. He drew a piece of chalk from his pocket, marked tar- gets for his gunners, and the gates fell. Four sets of gates fell in this fashion. Vestiges of the fierce struggle for survival and relief of the troopers’ compatriots can be located in age- old Peking today. In the British Le- gation, now restored, there is pre- served a narrow stretch of the orig- inal wall, pocked with bullets, crowned with sandbags, and lettered significantly “Lest we Forget.” Serum From Boy Given to Doctors Advances Plan as One So- lution of Problem of Unemployment. Windsor, Ontario, Aug. 9 (A.P.).—A 10-month working year in the motor car industry was predicted by Henry Ford in a copyrighted interview — today in the Border Cities S othe problem challenging us most today’ is how to control industry so that workmen will have steady em- ployment,” he said. “What it will come to in the motor car industry is a 10-month industrial year. The summer months are not good months to be working in factories. People need a change. Such an adjustment will take time, of course, because the workers as well as the manufacturers will have to adapt themselves to such a schedule. But we have accom- plished bigger things, notably the eight-hour day and the five-day week.” “Unemployment,” he continued, “ not a natural phenomenon, but ‘ne visible result of ignorance of eco- nomic health laws.” Referring to the prospects for in- creased tariff duties under the new Canadian government, he said he could see no reason for objecting to such an increase. 99 Japanese Forfeit $49,500 Visitor Bonds San Francisco, Aug. 9 (AP.)-— More than half the Japanese admitted under $500 bond each to the United States as temporary visitors in the Scientists Seek Cure for Typhus, Protected by Victim’s Blood.

First came the locusts, then the cankerworm and field mice and now a drought is upon the country. The Jerusalem municipality can ;not supply sufficent water to fill all requirements. The daily watering of gardens has been forbidden, water only being supplied twice weekly for this In this way the au- | thorities hope to tide over until the next rainy season. Inhabitants of old houses are bet- | ter off than those who dwell in new ones, because the old buildings have cisterns to which rainwater is con- ducted by means of the gutter pipes. The average cistern holds enough water to last the whole of the dry season and the family furthermore saves the expensive city water rate, which, for a five-room flat, amounts to about $4 monthly.

When supplies run short, a policeman watches the | queues to see that each gets only his in | share. Water becomes an object of specu- lative barter in the dry season. Water carriers in the streets offer a gal- lon pétroleum tin of water at 5 ‘cents each. The present shortage has even been invested with political significance. Before the Wailing Wall commission of the League of Nations, the Jew- ish representative cited, among other things, the prayers offered at the Walling Wall in times of drought as evidence of services having been held there by the Jews. Lord Plumer, the former high com- missioner, during the drought of two years ago, asked the rabbis to pray for rain, and the traditional prayers were. offered at the Wailing Wall. Shortly after rain actually | fell. Appeal Very Ancient. The order of the supplication serv- ice for rain goes back to ancient times. As laid down in Mishna, the Hebrew commentary describing the usages in Palestine in the second century, the order provides that the ark, containing .he sacred «acroll, is t into an open place in the city and that ashes must be on it, on the head of the government and on the chief judge. But today the ceremony has been somewhat modernized and no ashes are thrown on his maesty’s high com- aeuatonar, nor on the‘chief justice.| Food Distributors Meet This Week Dr. Reichelderfer Will Welcome Motor Truck Men to City.

FRANCE ALONE HAS EMPLOYMENT FOR ALL Britain, Having More Than 2,000,000 Idle, Sees Dole Lists Lengthen. London, Aug. 9 (A.P.).—Unemploye ment reached a new high record im the Old World with the annoulce- ment today by Germany that her to» tal number of persons out of work is 2,757,000. As Great Britain’s un- employed officially passed the 2,000. 000 mark last month, it is estimated that in six European countries there are today at least 5,949,287 persons listed as out of work. In Great Britain, Germany, Aus- tria, Hungary, Italy and rance, the workers dependent for their liveli- hood upon private charity or pubiie doles now exceed the population of any European capital except London. Reports from some other countries indicated that conditions were im- proving, but this was not true of either Germany or England. Italy, with 322,287 officially report- ed jobless, 114,004 of them women, Prance with upward of 100000 om strike and 20, out of work invol- untarily; Hungary, with 400,000, mostly agriculturists, idle today, ace counted for about 5,949,287 official- ly tabulated, while Austria : 450,000 to the roll. “Dole” Lists Increasing. Everywhere throughout Europe deé- . termined efforta have been made check the less, but the insurance i of thousands has been costing the several governments far into the millions to meet the emere gency. The London Herald, on March 3, claimed that the total unemployed in the entire world was 16,000,000. The Herald, supporting the Labor govern- > _ment, which has been grappling with the problem in England, informed its readers that America’s situation was worse than that of any other country, advancing oo figure 6,000,000 as the total mm that country. pl ay = same time aaid tn were 000 jobless in rmany, 2,000, in Russia, 1,500,000 in Great Bri 800,000 in Japan and 500,000 in Italy. The source of these figures was not made clear. The figures later were modified a cut of 1,000,000 in the United States total. Great Britain's army of out-of- works has been growing since last autumn and shot past the epee mark on July 28, as bor exchanges throughout the ent han try. British unemployment, it then pias the Labor not hit upon a panacea, and the pros- pect is it will become a national rather than a party matter. British Industries Hit. In Britain the worst hit industries are textiles, with nearly a idle; transport, with 433,000; trades. 170,000; coal mining, 286. and engineering in its branches, 413,000. Germany has expertaness an in- crease of 1,000,000 in unempl in the last year, of whom 61 lost their jobs in the last fortnight. The latest jump in the nation- wide totals gave Germany a chilly surprise. Mines, factories and mere chants in all sections, it was have been laying off help in June July and only reser gr ol Sociales government became so erned with the plans of manufacturers to reduce pay rolls that it warned them not to expect government contract® if they employed “unsocial” methods of cutting their staffs. Italy’s outlook jook a turn for the better today when the government oe e known that extensive plans had mn prepared for employment im state work of many thousands of persons. France’s Work Pientiful. In France unemployment is vit- tually nonexistent. Government of ficials have asserted that most of idle could obtain work at. their habitual occupations if .. they would. One reason for France’s tion was said to be that ind activity had so absorbed farm the importation of other nationals for agriculture had been imperative, Belgium’s diamond trade has been hit, but strikes in the textile milis have been the chief cause of idle- ness. Portugal has taken steps to bar citizens of other countries from take ing employment in order to com the employment of her own rs during the unemployment crisis, Austria had about 450,000 dependent on a dole of $2.25 week at the end of February and number has been unofficially’ report+ ed increased.

Brown Wisdom, rated as one of the outstanding horses of the country last year, but regarded as an in and outer this season, won $26,600 for his owners, E. W. and W. C.. Reichert, of Belleville, lll. The sum of $4,000 went to Lady Broadcast, owned by Rogers Caldwell, of Memphis, for finishing second, while the Reichert’ Bros. collected another $2,000 for My Dandy’s effort in finishing third.

When the thirteen horses were led to the post, rain was falling steadily and low hanging clouds produced a misty, dark setting for the race, The starters labored with the field for nine and one-half minutes, due to the ugly behavior of Display,) owned by Walter J. Salmon, New York ‘turf- man, second choice in the betting. Display was still acting up when the barrier went up and he was vir- tually left at the post, geeting away in twifth place. He failed to improve his position and the famous stretch run he usually stages did not ma- terialize. AUSTRALIAN POLOISTS BOW Westbury, N.

Cumberland’s Night Baseball Is Popular Special to The Washington Post. Cumberland, Md., Aug. 9.—The paid attendance for four nights at Com- munity Park, night baseball having been introduced for the first time in Maryland there last Monday night, totaled 5,283. The promoters are highly pleased and look upon this as an indication that “owl” ball is a fixture. There were 2,200 cash cus- tomers on the opening night, when Colts and Jays clashed. Tuesday night, 974 paid; Wednesday, 896, and Thursday, 1,213. Prior to the intro- duction of night ball, the attendance at week-day games averaged 140. The lighting system at the local park is said to be the best in the league. have witnessed the play by flood- light are highly pleased with the innovation. Cumberland plays its next home game tomorrow afternoon with Fair- nt. The same teams clash here onday night and that will be the only game here next week. In . the geries there was much sensational Playing. It included long running catches in centerfield by Barry and Connell, and fast retrieving of a base- hit in right by Pierce to throw a man out at the home plate. The play of Johnny Byrnes, the local pilot, at first, has bordered on the tacular. There was some sensa- tional hitting. Neale and April had two hits each, Conti, former Cum- berland Colt, had three. and Barry poled four off Chase's offerings dur- ing the evening.

LAYGROUND officials called the attention of the directors yester- day to two rules for the field and track championship to be held on August 26 that many have been con- fused on. One Is that a boy can not wear spiked shoes except in the un- limited relay and half-mile run. This regulation was made because | many of the little tracksters can not | afford to purchase this equipment and the more fortunate ones_who can have a decided advantage using them. Another point that a few have not been quite clear on is that a boy must run for the playground nearest his home. This rule was made sev- eral years ago to prevent a play- ground from collecting stars from different sections of the city, forming an all-star combination. Several of the playgrounds held meets recently to select their teams. Others have been engaging in dual and triangular meets as part of the training program for the champlion- ships.

ETROIT, Aug. 9.—A complete schedule of the five-day speed boat regatta to be held here August 29 to September 2, as an- nounced by the Detroit Gold Cup committee, indicates that the events supplementary to the British Inter- national Trophy races will attract the largest fleet of boats ever assembled in this country. While Miss Marion B. Carstairs, English challenger for the Harms- worth Trophy, is tuning up her two) entries at Lake Muskoka, near Gra- venhurst, Ontario, Gar Wood remains silent as to his plans. It is generally assumed, hajvever, that he will not base his defense of the world’s speed boat prize upon the performance of Miss America VIII alone. Gar Wood May Drive New Boat. When the challenger and the de- fender are called to the course for the first 30-mile heat at 5 p. m. August 30, Miss Carstairs will be at the wheel of Estelle IV, her entry of a year ago rebuilt to run with Estelle V, a new boat equipped with greater power and built with less overall length. Herbert A. Hawker will pilot the second British hydroplane, If Gar Wood appears wivil a drives Miss America VITI. featherweights; Bobby Burke and W.

The empire athletes, representing eleven dominions, will assemble ag a single unit, thus comprising one of the greatest track teams in the his- tory of the sport. In past olympic meets the various dominions partici- pated separately, but in the coming games they will all join under the Union Jack. To meet such an aggregation of gtars from every corner of the world the coaches and officials in charge of the United States team are calling | upon every prospective candidate in | the country to get himself into the | best of condition for the tryouts to |be held at the National A. A. U. |championships at Pittsburgh, Au- | gust 22-25. Every one of the fourteen events on | the program will find the foremost | athletes in the world competing.

ARLY last February Cullen Cain, press relations expert of the Natiorial League, sent to the newspapers of the country a very interesting story with a question for a head, “What Will Dan Taylor Do?” In August the versatile Taylor is answering the February question with his bat. He is batting 390, leading all the Cubs, although he has played in only about onesthird of his team’s games. Riggs Stephenson, Hack Wil- son and Kiki Cuyler are so good that even a Danny Taylor could not break into the line-up with this trio in ship shape. Taylor got his chances when Stephenson, the Alabama representative, was hurt. Taylor plugged the gap efficiently and finflly passed Stevie in bat- ting. When he was forced out of the game Stephenson was batting .360. Danny was a star in the Southern Association in 1926 and would have found a place for himself last year on & major league club with less strength in the outfield. He could not displace Cuyler, Wilson and Stepehnson, so he was sent to the Reading farm. “He batted 371 to lead the Interna- tional League and played a great game in the outfield. When Taylor was recalled by the Cubs, Mr. Cain declared that he was “cherry ripe for big league service,” but added that he could not hope to shove any of the three great outfielders out of the baseball picture. Taylor is still well under 30 years of age,and he no doubt will be @ regular before he drops out of the majors, but it does seem a pity that so good an outfielder should find himself on a club already so well fortified with outfield matérial.

The leaders can stand the strain no longer. They almost always blow up some time during the last day; and the men behind them, or at least some one, two or three of them, with nothing on their minds but their caps, begin to play golf and close the gap. ett i atwave a lot easier to pile a 70 on top of two 74's than it is to add a 72 to two 70's.

This year he won the Chevy Chase event for the third consecutive | time and was medalist and winner of | the .consolation in the first sixteen | at Woodmont. Incidentally, it is | worth while remembering that last | year he defeated Maurice J.

In the game year he was medalist at the Maryland Country Club and runner- up in the Middle Atlantic champion- ship, while lest year he was runner- up at Town and Country and Manor and winner at Bannockburn. This ar he was medalist and winner at Stierwood Forest. It will be seen that his. record is confined to local com- petitions, but if the United States Golf Association will allow three en- tries from this section, which would be’ most reasonable, Shorey’s name may be accepted.

Oharles Hunt and Richard Blas- kower of San Francisco, triumphed over Ed Sutter, of New Orleans, and Bill Reese, of Atlanta, 6—3, 3—6, 6—3, 6—4, for the junior doubles title, while Cohn and Jack Lynch, of Taft, Calif. trounced Frankie Parker, of Milwaukee,. and George Boynton, of Atlanta, Ga, 3—6, 6—3, 6—0, for the boys’ doubles cham- nship. ‘Parker came back in the boys’ sin- gies and defeated Cohn, 6—2, 6—1, easily outclassing the tired West- erner.

Here are a half dozen spent young men on the tail end of six months of tition; a trek that found Allison in- dolent with work when he should have been at his peak; a trek that commenced in Florida shortly after the turn of the year and which swung northward and across the sea and up and down Europe for in- determinable week upon ditto week.

Drewes is recognized by many as a real comer in the net world and should make a strong bid to regain his crown. He has met and defeated several local players in the same tournament during the past few years, Dooley Mitchell, president District champion, being one of those to fall before the Mound City star.

AMERICA CUP RACE COSTS © MILLIONS $600 Trophy First Won by Schooner Back in 1851. EWPORT, R. L, Aug. 9 (A.P.)— Sporting events are few that have the glamorous history of the races for Americas’ Cup. The contests date back to 1851, when the schooner America led eighteen of Britain’s fastest yachts around the Isle of Wight. Britisn yachtsmen have made thirteen un- successful attempts to recover the famous trophy since that year. Sir Thomas Lipton will make the fourteenth and his own fifth bid when Shamrock V crosses the starting line off here September 13. Four American sloops, Enterprise, Yankee, Weetamoe and Whirlwind, now are competing for the honor of meeting this challenge. The schooner America was built on the lines of the New York pilot boat of the period. She was taken to England by Commodore John C. Stevens, of the New York Yacht Club, who immediately issued a challenge to all schooners of the Royal Yacht Squadron. Offer Was Not Accepted. His offer was not accepted, and finaly Stevens decided to enter a race for a special cup valued at 100 guineas, approximately $600, open to yachts of all nations. That cup, bottomless and of du- bioug beauty, is the America’s Cup, for which millions have been spent in defense and challenge, ,and other millions doubtless will be expended in the future. The race was over a distance of 53 miles, in all sorts of fluky winds and contrary tides. America finished 8 minutes ahead of Aurora, the first of the British yachts. The 79 years of subsequent competition have seen many changes in yacht construction and design. There was the cutter era, the shoal draft era and some of the contenders were little more than rac- ing machines. Now the gaff rig has disappeared and all mainsails are Marconi or jib- headed. The 165-foot hollow ‘masts towering over the present contestants would dwarf some of the stubby solid spars of early races. Chances of Lipton Are Good. In the past the British challenger was under a severe handicap. He was forced to build a yacht capable of comifg to the scene of the race under her own sail, while the de- fender could sacrifice strength for speed. This rule still holds so far as the challenger is concerned, but the American defender must now be built according to Liloyd’s specifications, thus guaranteeing the same general construction as the challenger. Under these rules it is generally conceded that Sir Thomas’ chance of lifting the cup this year are better than ever before. 4 He is still at some disadvantage. however, for there can be but one challenger, while any number of pros- pective defenders can be built and after trial races the best boat selected.

Marjorie Morrill, of Dedham, Mass., eleventh ranking women’s player in this country, captured the Midstone Club’s annual Gold Cup invitation tournament today, defeating Mary Greef, of Kansas City, in straight sets, 6—3, 6—2. Although Miss Greef, at No. 6, ranks five notches higher in the na- tional list, Miss Morrill’s victory came as no great surprise. The Dedham girl had played brilliantly throughout this tournament and only yesterday had eliminated Sarah Palfrey, of Brookline, Mass., who ranks fourth. After the Kansas City girl had taken the fourth game of the first set to make the score two-all, Miss Mor- rill showed her opponent no mercy. Lashing out with deep court drives, the New England girl then would re- verse the play and trap Miss Greef at the net. Miss Greef broke in on her own service in the sixth game to make the score three-all, but after that Miss Morrill dominated play. The second set was practically a repetition of the first with Miss Mor- rill snatching the last four games after the score was tied at two-all. Miss Greef showed only a flash of her usual form when she was trail- ing, 2—5, with the score in. the eighth game 15—40. She brought the score to deuce and gained advantage three times, Hut Miss Morrill’s con- sistent retu finally forced the Mid- dle Westerner to drive into the net to give the Eastern star the game and match.

The recent article in The Post giv- ing the decision of the United States Golf Association in connection with the incident which occurred in the spring invitation tournament of thé Columbia Club, when a player putted his opponent's bel on the green, the decision being that the player lost the hole, has recalled to D. L. Thomson. of the Manor Club, an occurrence in the Woodmont Club tournament ‘year last. Thomson was against Burk paired Edwards, a fellow-member of the Manor Club, and was 2 up and 3 to go at the sixteenth tee. He had Played his second shot on the green and had putted close to the cup for a sure 4. Edwards, on the green in 3, had laid his fourth shot about five or six inches from the cup for a certain'5. Then followed a tragic comedy. omson, remarking that he conced- €d his opponent's putt, knocked the ball into the cup, with his own ball still aining on the green. Re- alizing that he had done something which he ought not to have ‘done. Thomson at once asserted that he had lost the hole. Edwards disagreed, saying that Thomson had a sure 4 and had, therefore, won the hole and the match. After some discussion, Thomson suggested that Edwards re- place his ball on the green, but in a tion which stymied Thomson's 1. ‘This was done, but Thomson further complicated matters by nego- tiating the stymie. . “Now, you certainly win,” said Ed- wards. Thompson Beaten On 19th Hole. But Thomson insisted that he had lost the hole and was only 1 up. The seventeenth was halved, but Edwards won the eighteenth, squaring the match, and then defeated Thomson on the nineteenth green. In recalling the incident, Thomson stated that when the match was over and the | happening related, there was a wide difference of opinion among the ex- perts as to any ruling which gov- erned the case. “There was a general consensus of opinion,” said Thomson, “that I had lost the hole, buf as far as my mem- ory now serves me, no one seemed to be able to find a rule which abso- lutely governed the case. I do not think the matter was ever referred to the United States Golf Associa- tion for decision, as was done in con- nection with the incident at Co- lumbia, but in. view of the ruling which has just been made, I am glad that I insisted that I had lost the hole, even though I was finally de- feated in the match.” George.

Times change and we change with them. Last week somebody discovered that as long ago as 1924 considerable space was devoted in a local golf column to the fact that Roland Mac- kenzie, then about 16 years of age, had played the Columbia course in “the remarkable score of 35—39—74.” Nowadays, if Roland was four strokes over par on the Columbia course, he would think that there was some- thing radically wrong with his game. Today, also, there are quite a few golfers at Columbia to whom 72s, 73s and 74s are a common experi- ence. ~ Drain Has New Set Of Clubs. Ralph G.

Nevertheless, it was true. : ’ handicap is 27, the figures indicated a really fine brand of golf. With a handicap of a stroke on every hole and two strokes on nine holes, the feat which Harwood accomplished was not so great, after all. But he had a lot of fun with his 70 before he explained how it was scored. Osborn Shoots “Bee-die.” R. M. Osborn was playing the Argyle course last week with J. Harry Byrne, Maj. Zimmerman and John J. Lynch. On the second ‘hole his ball was on the lip of the cup. “Putt it in,” chorused his fellow players. “Wait a minute,” said Osborn, “there is a bee on my. ball.” Sure enough a bee had flown down and landed on the ball and was crawl- ing over the surface. A second later and the bee was on the side of the ball nearest the cup. The weight of the ‘bee caused the ball to topple over and fall into the cup. “That gives me a birdie,” said Os- “No,” said Harry Byrne, “not «a birdie. That’s a bee-die.” | Dr. G. D. Kirkpatrick, of the Wash- ington Golf and Country Club, sailed last January on a trip around the world and has now returned. ~ Al- though he took his golf sticks with him, the curious thing is that he did not take them out of the bag at any time during his tour. “There were lots of times when I would have liked to play,” he said last week, “especially on some beauti- ful courses I saw in Ceylon and Java, but somehow or other I did not seem ot have the time.” It will be different with Charles R. White and J. Albert Shaffer, of the Columbia Club, who sajled last week for a six weeks’ tour of eng land and Scotland. They took the clubs and propose to play every day. Finances Adjusted At Manor.

A three-ball match was played on the Indian Spring course last. week between H. A. Mihills, president of (the club; B. M. Batson and F. L. Hud- son, with -cumulative syndicates, When the eighteenth tee had been reached, Batson did not have a single Syndicate to his credit. “Iam not going to be a hypocrite,” he remarked, in melancholy fashion, “and say fhat I have enjoyed this game.” ; His misery was complete when.on the eighteenth en, with a pouwsible Syndicate in sight, he was nweéd out completely when Mihills ran down a long putt for a par 4. ‘ At @ meeting of the golf committee of the Beaver Dam Club last week, under the chairmanship of M.

Paaea June 380, duties collected on age entries in the Port of * New York amounted to $4,231,282.31. This sum was only a fraction of the total revenyie on imports collected in the port during 1929-1930, which was $329 ,722,787 30. . While Mr. Brewer professed him- gelf unable to generalize On the per- centage of people who succeed in amuggiing in goods undetected, he asserted hia belief that a large pro- portion of the would-be evaders are caught by the customs surveyors. “There is more talk of people who get by with undeclared goods than there actually are people who get by,” he said. Undone by Cleverneéss. Too great cleverness in concealing goods may be the passenger's wun- doing. One..woman hid articles throughout her trunks and bags s0 stugiy that she had to make a diagram in order to be able to find them again. The customs i found the diagram—and location of the merchandise was child's play. If customs men at times Ww cynical on the topic of women and the customs law they can scarcely bé blamed in the light of such oc- currerces as the following. A woman who owns a gift shop in the West makes a practice of going abroad early each spring to purchase stock for the shop. On returning from her latest trip she hid im her trunks literally hindreds of small items which she purehased abroad, and which she failed tq declare. The inspector assigned to examine her baggage easily discovered the ineptly concealed goods. She paid some $2,000 in fines, weeping pro- fusely. She then calmed herself, leaned back in her chair, and com- paréd her own involuntarily — . record with the spottier ones of ‘her more successful friends. And, her en- viousness making her savage, she said, to tee amazement of the solici- tor: “Well, many people I know have gotten away with it, but they are nothing but dirty crooks!” | SENATOR'S DIARY Continued from Page 9. a his dryness. Sheppard had the cour- age in 1928 to take his political life in his hands and stumped the State for Al Smith. The prohibition zealots, who previously had been his most ardent admirers, turned their back upon him and threatened to “get” him when he came up for renomina- tion in 1930. The Al Smith followers gratefully remembered Sheppard’s services and went to his aid in this year’s primary. That is one of the answers to Sheppard's large majority.

In this pow we find that eight Southern tes lose ten seats; two Northern States, one of them Pennsylvania, lose four seats; seven grain States of the West lose ten seats, and three smal! New England States lose one seat each. Gains and Losses of Seats. Transferring these losses to other States we see that four Southern States gain six seats, three Northern States gain six seats, three Western arid Pacific States gain fourteen seats, a one New England State gains one sea It is not so easy to assemble these States in groups that represent the Opposing interests in the Nation, for one does not know whether to char- acterize North Carolina and Texas and Oklahoma as agricultural or in- dustrial communities, or as a com- bination of both, for they are great farming communities and also have their major wealth invested in in- dustries, cotton mills, oil mills and kindred industries. - And how shall we classify Cali- fornia, which gained nine seats, al- most one-half of the total shift? Its sunshine and fts prunes are-indus- tries, and so are its famous héng at Petaluma, which lay an egg every day in the year and sometimes two on Sundays and holy days—according to gee 24g od ga that clutters the mall from San Diego, Los Angeles San Francisco. One never addy California’s gold mines any more, but one does hear a lot of r. golden sunshine, as if God favored that beautiful State with a special brand of solar rays that make -the aged young, the ignorant learned, the un- ambitious energetic, and the cold- oe aa as amorous as Don Juan him- self. “. Florida is in pretty much the same boat with California, for she, too, has & sunshine industry that brings more ld to her coffers than all of her yel- Ow oranges and red peppers com- bined; and it is not easy to place her. State, and her great influx of popula- tion was drawn thither by her cli- mate and not by her soil. Of the ten States which have gained 27 new seats, only one, Washington, easily falls into the rank of agricul- tural Commonwealths. She gained one seat. Twenty-six seats, then, went to industrial States, as follows: Con- necticut, one; California, nine: Michi- four; New Jersey, two; New York, wo; Ohio, two; Florida, one: North Carolina, one; Texas, three, and Ok- lahoma, one. North-South Controversy Settled. There is no. longer any contro between the North tot the South, That was settled on April 9, 1965, under an apple tree near Appomattox Courthouse in the State of Virginia. Since that epochal day, the South has been more or less of a cipher in Congress. She handed over the sceptre of power to the Republicans in 1859-60, when Gov. Pendleton, of New Jersey, was chosen Speaker of the House after the most memorable con- test in congressional history. Since then she has been a diminishing fac- tor in the affairs of the Nation, which she ruled, with but two interregnums of the Adams family, of Quincy, for 60 .years. But the West, the great grain States that lie between the Father of Waters and the Rocky Mountains, are the States that» look with anxious and angry eyés at the census figures and the consequent veapportionment. Seven of them (Iowa, Kansas, Minne- sota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Da- kota and South Dakota),.lose ten seats in the House, Missouri three of them. This loss is pregnant with alarming results. It has no voice now to make resonant the [liad of ita woes, but who knows when that voice will spring up on the prairies and begin a ululation that will be heard from Cape Cod to Kalamazoo, from Maine to California, and from the Soo Canal to the Eads jetties? There is no longer any kick in the dear old South. She has nothing to Kick about. Her‘last kick, in Novem- ber, 1928, laid her on the shelf for a long time to come. But thc West, ah, that is the land of the bucking broncho and the jumping frog. It has produced everyism of a political nature in our history, except aboli- tionism—-which Puritan New England still fondly, though Without historic warrant, hugs close to her wa and loving heart as her one pet philan- thropy Many Isms From West. Young Lochinvar is not the only hero that has come out of the West. Greenbackism, fornia—“a prune a day drives Doc away”—all were wned in the West. And that intelligent of history : maartes They had a ca all ee Seaton in our political | CENSUS BLOW TO It made a tremendous noise for a while, particularly during the years that Col. Roosevelt was its titular leader; but he lacked what La Follette, the elder, and Dolliver and Kenyon and helf a hundred others among its foremost leaders had—the breath of the prairies in his nostrils and the anger of the prairie farmers dinning in his ears. He was more or less of ® parior Progressive, for his political soul was steeped in the lore and tra- ditions of the party that had so often and so highly honored him. He was/ @ genuine Republican and not a true- blue ive. Of course, some of his. intimate friends, like the very able Mr. Mark Sullivan, one of the old wheel horses of the dear dead days of the political past, will prob- ably not agree with this characteriza-. tion of the mighty T. R., but a man is rather known by his successes than by his failures, and only Gen. Robert E. Lee has risen above surrender. One of the things the census does not tell us, in this reapportionment table, is the shifting of the colored people of the South to the industrial Cities Of the North. Within the past decade Chicago, Cleveland, Philadel- phia, Pittsburgh, New York and some other cities of the North have had a growing colored population. This population is largely segregated in these several] communities, and as it is a voting PS! 2g + mpprriee it may make its influencé felt when the various State Legislatures come to redistrict the State in which these cities lie. May Send Negro to Congress. It would not_be strange, then, if New York and Cleveland and maybe some of the other Northern cities should send colored men to Congress, just as Chicago has done. The popu- lation is there and the colored people, it is umderstood, are serving notice on the party leaders that they miust get their Just share of the offices. This raisés a most interesting ques- tion in politics, for it is known of all men that the colored voters hold the balance of power within the Republi- can party in several Northern States. This vote made itself felt in defeating the confirmation of Judge Parker, of North Carolina, for the United States Supreme Court, for several of the Re- publican senators who have such a constituency heeded the yoice of pro- test that came from the colored le. In the last Congress, as is so well known, there was a combination of certain senators from the agrarian States of the West with a large group of Democratic senators, which came very near being effective in controlling -legislation and. writing a tariff bill that was tasteful to agriculture and distasteful to industry. The coalition was defeated by certain Southern sen- ators—(those from Piorida and Louis- lana in particular)—who voted for the Republican bill to get protection for their sugar and tomatoes. Agriculture is not going to be con- tent with a seat in the peanut gal- lery of Congress. It never has, and, hme judice, it never will. It “has al- ways been kicking out with all four feet when anything hurt it. This lamp of experience surely points the way to some lively times within the next ten years. Grain States May Combine Again. Will the grain States and the cot- ton States comrbine in a new. forma- tion? No one knows. There is no shadow now adumbrating any such coalition. In neither section has any leader or set of leaders arisen that can weld these groups into a fighting party. They have just as diverse a civilization as had New England and the Old South, a thing noted by every intelligent traveler who visited this country and took notes on what he saw and heard. But it should not be forgotten that every political party of any consequence in our history was made up of similar discordant ele- ments. Jefferson welded the aristocratic South and the flamboyant West into the Democratic party. Henry Clay came along and took the aristocrats of the South out of the Democratic party and fused them with the old Federalists of New England into the Whig party. When it finished its course, the Republican party took up the fragments of the Whig party and the most ¢ornglomerate mass of po- litical units that ever were assem-~ bled—Old Whigs and Barn Burners, Know Nothings and. Abolitionists, Free Traders and Protectionists, Wis- dom and Folly, fire eaters and sword swallowers, political parsons and swearing infidele—all came together and made the most vibrant and en~ ergetic and rambunctious political party in all history. When it came to power the Federalist element seized the reins, wedded the party to bdusi- ness and industry and new ideals. made it thoroughly “respectable,” and except for two brief interregnums of Cleveland and Wilson have been rul- ing the country for 70 years. This example may show the dis- gruntied ones how to put together a that will do what agriculture ys it wants done. All it needs ‘s leaders who can sing and shout, pray and halloo, cuss and fight. If Sen- ator were not such a gentleman; if he could swear one, two or three es: if } Seg + he ee ‘+. ek Ae & eee +. a5 eS Ta FARMERS as was Thaddeus Stevens, he might gather up the mavericks of the West and the boll weevils of the South and herd them together in the same corral. It will take some man with his brain and debating the things that made and Jefferson and Abe Lincoin what they were, to do this. Lincoln Was Very Human. In these pious days it is quite the thi to refer to the Emancipator as nearly. perfect; but he was human. Don Piatt, probably the most brill- fant man who ever sat in the press gallery, relates in one of his books a méager account of an interview he had with Lincoln in whieh the war President took him severely and hot- ly to task and took his hide off for freeing the slaves in Maryland. One easily sees that when the occasion demanded it Lincoln could use the vernacular that a Southern darky uses on an obstinate mule. There are many interesting inci- dents in the reapportionmént table aside from the litical ibilities already noted. hode Isiand began Statehood with one congressman and from the first census, in 1600, to the last one, she had two. Now she slips back to her colonial status. Vermont began with two and in thirty years had six representatives, after which she began to slip, and for the past fifty years has had two. Now she joins little Rhody with Just one. Calyin Coolidge will not liké that. Virginia began with ten representa- tives and reached her zenith in 1810, when it jumped to 28. Since then she has been slipping year by year, reaching her nadir in 1680, when her delegation sank to nine, jumping back to ten in 18600, where it remained, Now she falls back to nine Tennessee began, in 1797, with one representative, the redoubtable Andrew Jackson. In 1830 she reached her power as a national force and her delegation rose to thirteen, one of the largest and most influential from the South, and, indeed, in the Nation. In 1860 this fell to eight, and rose to ten at the next census, where it has stood ever since. The Tenth Congressional District, in which Memphis is located, is more famous in her annals than the First, which is in the mountains, or the Sixth, which is the Hermitage district. Now that Tennessee drops to nine districts, the loss of the name so long identified with Memphis and Wolf River will occasion as poignant grief as if some one had dug up Old Hickory’s . bones carried them back to hi: native Carolina—whether North or South no men knoweth. Georgia May Well Weep. Of all the tragedies of the census that which has befallen Georgia will cause tears to flow by the side of which Niobe’s are. mere sniffies of an injured infant. This “Empire State of the South” has fallen from her proud position of twelfth State to fourteenth; has shown a gain of a mere. 6,000 in ten years, about one- tenth of the number of babies born in the State in twelve months, and loses two members of the House. One of her ablest statisticians, Mr. A. H. Ulm, informs me that the boll weevil is responsible for this condition; that that tiny buy has not only paralyzed agriculture in central Gegrgia but has actually driven denizens of Macon and Augusta and Thomson and Thompson and Milledgeville and Mil- lersburg to Atlanta. This accounts for the growth of Atlanta. There are still 2,900,000 Georgians and other folks in Georgia, and that is a@ lot of Georgians. n't despair of the Georgians. Théey came back when Sherman “marched through Georgia.” A lot of east Te Yankees from around Knoxville went down there in 1870 and built Atlanta, an @mazing city. There will bé an- other migration that will come in after the boll weevil has satisfied his voracious appetite. And then Georgis will get back her two lost repre- sentatives. There is just one happy fact about the disclosures of this census. Cali- fornia comes here next year with twenty representatives, For ten years now the elongated senator from Los Angeles has been “busting loose” on the California prune. Now it will take more than the hall of the Senate to hold him as he. struts over « doubled delegation.

To | Mr. Mann, however, is not the credit for saving “Sins of the | Children” from charges of occasional! | tawdriness.

The origina] titie of this picture, I believe, was “The Richest Man in the World,” and that seems to me to in- dex it a little more accurately than ite present name, obviously chosen for box-office advantages that may be réal or merely imaginary. At any rate, Mr, Mann deserves the title role that the earlier nomenclature would have afforded him, for he is cast as the German-American father of a flock of children in whom his life is wrapped up. To save the health of one of them, he misses the chance for millions and s0 continues through life a second-rate barber in a thriving little city, his riches all of the heart; his wealth the love of his children, whom we meet first aa little tots and then see grow to maturity.

To this role Mr. Mann brings the same thick dialect that characterized 50 many Of his stage rtrayals—in “Friendly Enemies,” f example— and that his lines fit the part s0 superbly, I suspect is accounted for by the presence of Clara Lipman (Mrs. Louls Mann) as one of the dialogue writers In its field, Mr. Mann's impersonation is no less rounded and able than George Arliss’ in “Disraeli.” Elliott Nugent, Fran- cis X.

METROPOLITAN “FOR THE DEFENSE.” A Paramount presentation of a story by Charles Furth- mann adapted for the screen by Oliver H. P. Garrett, featuring William Powell, supported by Kay Francis, Scott Kolk and William B. Davidson. Directed by John Cromwell. Reviewed Saturday a/ter- noon by W. A. Whitney. Of all the actors on the present-day screen, there is none that can com- pare with William Powell when it comes to delincating the criminal) Iewyer ither for the prosecution or for the defense. This humble ovinion becomes a firm conviction after see- ing Mr. Powell as the attorney in “Por the Defense.” The role of William Foster is one that was tailor-made to Mr. Powell's exact measurement and, as the suave dicts tempered not only with justice, but with mercy, leads to practices | well-controlled that might not always be condoned, | ™akes an audience feel the very at- it. |\mosphere of the setting. he does an excellent job with “THE DAWN PATROL.” First National's picturtsaiion of Join Monk Saunders story of “The Flight Commander,” ster- ring Richard Barthelmess, su ted by Neil Hamilton and Douwélas Pairbaaks, jr. Directed by Mowerd Hawts. Reviewed Friday a/ternoon. Since this is another study of the arim realities of war on the front line, devoid of any feminine touch and é@n- wholly by men, it is inevitable “Journey's End,” yet such @ compeari- | son is not an accurate gauge since | due all | these two plays ate as widely opposite | as the poles, “Journey's End” was psychological drama, dealing not so much with the causes of the mental, and physical collapse of while it visualizes the heroism, the terror and the futility of martial murder by unfolding the whole pano- rama of armed conflict in all its Ror- rifying fury. Thus, if excitement, thrills and suspense are the major reactions sought in attendance upon the cinema, “The Dawn Patrol” be- comes a more colorful and more stir- ring entertainment than could ever be claimed for “Journey's End.” As an authentic document of the war, I am not so sure. A splendid cast executes ite duties splendidly in “The Dawn Patrol,” and there is ever present during the prog- ress of the story of the flight com- mander who ‘laid down his life for his friend a powerful and a bitter indict- ment of the machine that grinds up half-trained, ill-equipped and uncom- prehending youngsters in its insati- able maw for the glory of the flag, but at the same time there is left a con- sciousness that these courageous lads somehow are no less individual sen- timentalists, tremendously pitying each other, than they are ardent soldiers aflame with the fires of patriotic fervor, This again is on the side of audience appeal as opposed to the relentless blood and iron real- ism that paints war as ghastly and as ugly as it is. Richard Barthelmess is star of this picture solely by virtue of appearing in the role of most expansivé propor- tions, and not by virtue of a perform- ance noticeably superior to those con- tributed by several of his associates. Neil Hamilton, as the harried squad- ron commander who finally turns his repugnant duties over to Barthelmess, offers a vigorous and forceful por- trayal of a character that commands respect, and Douglas Fairbanks, jr. is seen in the most diversified and most completely sympathetic characteriza- tion of the lot as young Scott, whose life is spared because Barthelmess has seemed unnecessarily to have sacri- ficed his younger brother's. Not only are these three sterling delineations, but minor bits are no less efficiently done by William Jan-~- ney, in the role of the younger Scott; Gardner James, as the filer whose valor was not quite equal to the strain of the first line; Edmund Breon, as Lieut. Bathurst; Clyde Cook, James Finlayson, Jack Ackroyd, Frank McHugh and numerous others whose appearances are only momen- night by Mary Porter Russell. “HELL'S ISLAND.” Columbia picture iy E featuring’ F oir.

Jenks, of Rollins College, sets. forth. at. the harlottesville_ Institute of Public .Af- airs a plan to do away with the Platt amendment, a committee of New York| and Canadian bankers is formed to do- operate with Cuban sugar interests to save the: economic: situation in Cuba. The college professor would cure Cuba’s ills by a political nostrum. The business men interested in Cuba. would .cure them. by rationalizing the .sugar in- dustry. — With sugar selling at 1.25 cents a pound, while the cost of production in 1928-29 ‘averaged ‘from - 1.50: to. 1.66 eents ‘a pound,.a-desperate situation would ‘exist even if a heavy carryover did not exist. But production greatly exceeds consumption. Fortunately the 1929-30 crop will be nearly 500,000 tons less than the record-breaking crop of 5,156,159.tons in -1928-29. Neverthe- | betw less, there is a arge surplus, and unless cooperation canbe secured among sugar-producing countries looking to the adjustment of production to con- sumption, no assurance of relief.can be expected. The committee believes that means will be.found to handle the surplus and gradually to adjust production to con- sumption. Although the United States imported less sugar during the last six months than. during the corresponding six months of 1929, the reduction does not signify that the increased duty will permanently affect import§& from Cuba. _ The normal demand for sugar is ex- pected to return, and, if. the Philip- pine preference is eliminated by Con- gress, the increased duty will not pre- vent Cuba from selling her share to the United States. « Prof. Jenks would change the Cuban- American treaty so that it would. be bilateral instead of unilateral so far as guarantees of territorial integrity are concerned. But he foresees that objec- tion would be made, as a bilateral treaty would be arbitrable,. and the United States has “consistenuy refused arbi- tration of questions involving the Mon- roe Doctrine.’ This, in. Dr. Jenks’ opinion, is an indefensible position. On the contrary; the Monroe Doc- trine ‘itself would be indefensible if it were subject to arbitration. It is a national defense policy of the United States, and is strictly unilateral. It is not: aimed at interference with other nations, but is held in reserve for this Nation’s defense. The United States could not submit to arbitration the questions arising under the Monroe Doctrine without agreeing that foreign authority should decide vital questions affecting the Nation’s security. Prof. Jenks would eliminate article -8 of the Cuban-American treaty, which permits American intervention. “It~is an article which, if any, is a derogation of Cuba’s mature political personality,” obseryes Dr. Jenks. He adds that the United States no longer. needs this arti- cle, and that “its existence has tended 4o promoté rather than discourage the political immaturity of Cubans.” No one can deny that Cubans gen- erally are dissatisfied with this article and would like to have it abrogated. it is a sheet-anchor, and nothing “else can be devised. at. present to take its place. The United States does not Yetain the-right to intervene in Cuba _ beeayse of any. advantage that this country might gain by such action. It is solely for, the safety and peace of Cuba that intervention is provided for by treaty.. With. economic. pros- perity, political stability -follows as a -|matter of course, and intervention does not come into the picture. What the United States should do is to revise its economic relations with Cuba, so that the island shall be self-sustaining. Then there’ will be no necessity for interven- tion or any other action of a political nature. THE WAY TO PEACE. Rear Admiral Hepburn, who was one 25}0f the United States naval advisers at the London conference, sounded a warn- ing.on Friday at the Williamstown In- stitute of Politics against the move- ment now on foot to prevent the build- ing of the Navy up to parity. The chief benefit of the London treaty will be ‘}lost; in his opinion, if this movement nor | Succeeds. > | and other ratios for which we strove “If we fail to take the parity lat London,” said Admiral Hepburn, “they (the other nations) will not un- derstand that. They will not credit it to our desire for peace, and America will go to the next limitation eonfer- ence in 1935 with less influence than she has ever had in such’a gathering.” It-was the testimony of Secretary. Stimson and other American delegates that the United States was badly handi- capped at. London because Great Britain and Japan had a great superiority in cruiser strength. Apparently it does not enter into the imagination of any foreign power to imitate the United States by scrapping vessels in order to reach desired ratios. So far as is known, the American delegates did not have the nerve to ask either Great Brit- ain or Japan to scrap cruisers. Yet that would have been the simplest and most effective method of establishing rela- tivity. Since no other nation will scrap ves- sels, it is incumbent upon the United States to attain and maintain relativity of strength by building up its Navy. The “limitation” thus’ attained is on a higher level than it should be, and of course. there is no reduction of tonnages, But there must be substantial equality een. oe strength if there is “to be confidence and good will. So long as the United States Navy is unable to cope with the British navy there will be uneasiness on. both. sides of the ocean. The British know very well that American inferiority may give rise to a burst of naval construction on this side in the event of danger, with the outcome decidedly disadvantageous to Great Britain. They would gladly agree to parity now, with assured con- fidence, rather than risk the reaction that might come after belligerent-neu- tral squabbles in the next war. On this side the uneasiness lies in the fact that American commerce will never be se- cure against aggression during foreign wars until the Navy is strong enough to deal with any attack that may be threatened. The London naval treaty will make the British and American fleets practi- cally of qual strength by 1936, if the United States will proceed to build. But if this country should fail to build, rely- ing upon the false hope of promoting peace by refusing to hold its Navy to its allotted strength, the treaty will expire without parity having been reached. Public sentiment in 1935 may be in quite a different mood from ‘that of 1930. Untoward events may make it impossible to bring the nations into an- other naval limitation agreement. The surest way to establish confidence be- tween the greatest naval powers in the world is for the United States to pro- ceed without delay to the construction of such vessels as will make the United States Navy equal to the British navy in fighting strength. PRESIDENT OLAYA. The inauguration on August 7 of Dr. Enrique Olaya Herrera as President of Colombia is the auspicious beginning of a new era for that country. Dr. Olaya was, most enthusiastically . acclainied, and his references to closer cooperation with the United States were applauded. He spoke of the advantageous geo- graphical position of Colombia, which made it a duty of that country to pro- mote the collaboration of neighboring countries and to cultivate the closest re- lations with the United States. “Sev- eral years’ experience,” said Dr. Olaya in his inaugural address, “‘permitted me to know closely that Nation, and to acquire by contact with its eminent and leading men the conviction that they wish, as we wish, a policy of mutual cooperation, of ample and friendly un- derstanding, which, directed with sin- cerity and decisiveness, will be trans- lated into great reciprocal benefits.” It was through acquaintance with Dr. Olaya, during his term as minister at Washington, that many Americans became interested in his country, and they are well pleased with the attitude of the Hoover administration in. under- taking to facilitate by all proper means the intercourse and commerce that are steadily knitting together the United States and Colombia. They know that in Dr. Herrera there will exist at Bo- gota a most cordial spirit of coopera- tion. The new President of Colombia has personal knowledge of the true spirit of Americans toward Latin America. He enjoys the close friend- ship of thousands of American citizens in all parts of this country. The experi- ence and knowledge gained at Wash- ington admirably qualify him as a spokesman to all South America in be- half of true Americanism, which covets nothing that belongs to other republics. The day may come when this discerning and steadfast friend of the United States, occupying a commanding place in South American affairs, may per- form an inestimable service in remov- ing misapprehension tending to inter- fere. with the cordial] relations of the two Americas. pn a a oon SURPLUSES AND DROUGHT. The question is asked: What effect will a crop shortage induced by the drought have upon the project of farm relief? The Department of Agriculture says that human food crops have not been seriously affected by the protracted dry spell but that anima] feed crops probably will be considerably beneath the requirement. The department says further that the situation presents an opportunity for disposing of part of the wheat surplus through the substitu- tion of wheat for 'corn in the feeding of live stock. The conclusion is that nature has taken a hand in the farm problem by making an opportunity for the dis- posal of the wheat surplus and that, to this extent, the drought may be re- garded as a blessing. But the effect of a short crop this- year. on the farmer {next year should be considered. «What will be his reaction? The short crop may demonstrate the value of limitation of production. If as an effect of the drought, the price of corn and wheat skyrockets, it is not beyond the realm of possibility that the individual farmer will receive as much money for his short ‘crop as he would have received for the full crop that, had weather factors been favorable, he would have harvested. If this tran- spires, the lesson that the Farm Board has been trying to teach may be driven forcibly home. So far as the country as a whole is concerned there will, of course, be an economic loss in the de- struction of a part of the crop, but to the farmer the result may be an eco- nomic advantage. Unless he tries to catch up for this year’s short crop with his next year’s plantings, the first ma- terial advance toward solution of the farm problem may have been taken for the farmer by nature. But the drought.may drive home to the farmer the futility of counting on harvesting a full crop. Secretary Hyde said recently in an address advocating acreage limitation delivered before the Midwest Retail Merchants Council at Kansas City: Some one objects that you can not control production by control- ling the acreage. The seasons, weather conditions, storms, insect pests, plant diseases, not the acre- age, they say, control farm produc- tion. It is perfectly true that the production of any piece of land varies with the season. A 40 acres of wheat may produce 1,000 bushels one year and 300 bushels: the next. But that is local. Take down the statistics on crop production for the whole country and average the pro- duction per acre over 25 years. You will find the yield per acre for the whole country to be surpris- . ingly uniform. : The problem of the farmer is a per- sonal one. He has to look out for the welfare of himself and his family. Is it any comfort to the farmer situated in the drought area whose corn crop has been destroyed by the broiling sun to realize that the farmer situated outside the drought area has harvested a fcll crop for which he will receive premium prices as a result of the general short- age? It is his own production that puts bread into the mouths of his children through the winter. He may admit that average per acre yield for the country as a whole is comparatively easy to esti- mate, but he will insist that he himself has to insure against a short. harvest from his own acres to the end that he a \\\\\ hate Rocking the Boat Again. and his family may survive until the next harvest. -These, then,, are’ the .factors that promisé to counterbalaiice the beneficent effect, so far as it makes an opportunity to unload the wheat surplus, of the drought. With the surplus out of the way the farmer may conclude that the whole farm problem has been solved and that there no longer is need for regulating production; the suffering caused his family by this year’s short crop may influence him to try to stage a comeback by planting a huge crop next year. It may be doubted that the Farm Board’s task will have been made easier by the drought. New factors have en- tered into the problem. The whole situ- ation, disregarding even the critical na- ture of the present emergency, threat- ens to become infinitely more bother- some and more serious. DEVELOPING THE AVENUE. Last week witnessed two major real estate transactions, both involving property on Pennsylvania avenue, and both having bearing on the program for beautifying that historic thorough- fare. The purchase by the District govern- ment of the Ford Building, at John Marshall place and Pennsylvania ave- nue, is the largest deal thus far con- summated in the acquisition of prop- erty for the municipal center. On this site will arise one of a group of build- ings to house the various departments of the District government. These municipal buildings will be of monu- mental] design, in harmony with that of the Federal office buildings that are to be erected on the other side of Penn- sylvania avenue. When this part of the program has been completed, China- town, that frequently denounced eye- sore, will be but an unpleasant memory. The other transaction, a private one, involved the sale of a large block of property bounded on the west by Thir- teenth street, on the north by E street, and on the south by Pennsylvania ave- nue. The purchase price was reported at $1,500,000, but the identity of the purchaser and the character of the building to be erected has not been re- vealed. The project, although a private un- dertaking, is one in which the District and the Government will be vitally con- cerned. A new architectural standard has been set for that part of Pennsyl- vania avenue between the Capitol and the White House. The Federal Gov- ‘ernment, with its vast building pro- gram on the south side of the Avenue, naturally will abide by this standard, and so, too, will the District govern- ment in: carrying out its municipal center program. The responsibility for developing the north side of the Avenue rests on pri-; vate builders. The structures they erect should be as attractive as they can be made, to the end that the Avenue will present a harmonious appearance. The Shipstead act, passed at the last session, provides a club which may be used to enforce the erection of attrac- tive buildings along the Avenue. It gives the District Commissioners power to withhold a permit unless the building for which it is sought meets with the approval of the Fine Arts Commission. It is to be hoped that the interests who build at Thirteenth street and Pennsylvania avenue will not cause the Commissioners to wield that club. Theirs will be the first large building to be erected on Pennsylvania avenue since the passage of the Shipstead act and they have an opportunity to: make it one that will be a model for all pri- vate buildings that are erected héfe- after. MEXICAN ‘IMMIGRATION, Congress could not agree in its last session on any plan for restriction of immigration from countries of the Western Hemisphere. So many theories were advanced and so many plans sug- gested that none of them could gain enough support for enactment. But the State Department has taken up the problem and effected such restrictions that immigration from neighboring countries is no longer-a menace. It became apparent early in the in- vestigation of this question that there was little need for restrictions against nations of the Western Hemisphere, except Mexico. South and Central American countries send few immi- grants to the United States, and the economic relations between this country and Canada are such that free passage across the border is desirable. In view of this fact Congress declined to put up bars against Latin America and Canada, and at the same time refused to single out Mexico’as the one: neigh- bor whose citizens are not wanted in the United States. Nevertheless the influx of Mexicans into this country was cause for alarm. For five years prior to the fiscal year 1930 Mexicans were coming here at the rate of 56,474 annually. They were adding to the unemployment problem and tending to. undermine wage scales. Yet they were not assimilable into American social life. During the last year, however, the State Department has: put into effect regulations that have brought about an} migration. Visas are now refused to all applicants likely to become public and physical and mental defectives. This policy reduced the number of fffi- migrants for the first six months of 1930 to 3,674, making an annual immi- more than the quotas fixed in the vart- ous plans for limitation. The State Department issued a state- ment, saying that “proper enforcement of the existing immigration laws can and will be maintained in the future, in Mexico as in other countries, so as to prevent effectively the recurrence of the conditions existing a few years ago.” If these regulations are rigidly enforced they may prove more effective than would a rigid quota for Mexico, because they rule out the undesirables and they do not excite the enmity of a neighbor- ing nation.

VYLLA POE WILSON. HE part which women will play in the White House conference on child health and protection t@ be held in Constitution Hall No- vémber 19 to November 22 will be a important one. Not only women h among ‘authorities and experts on child welfare and health ques- tions will be présent at the confer- ence, but every national organization of women is taking an active interest in the project. ‘The scope of the discussion will embrace topics dealing with children fron a prenatal point of view up to 18 years of age, and, of course, the sodlal and youth problems of the hour. It is said that there will be fram 1,500 to 2,000 delegates present at the conference, including represen- tation from organizations in the Dis- trict of Columbia. Judge Florence Allen, of Ohio, the only woman on a State supreme court bench, has thrown down the gamtiet to those who would chal- lé the effectiveness of the first ten years of woman's suffrage in the United States. In a message to the women voters of the country Judge Aven declarés that women are lead- ing the way into the paths of stead- fastness and ethics and that they have avoided the net which was spread for them to lure them into examining the shell of things, to spend themselves in merély academic theories of government. Garbage disposal and street clean- ing have come under their attention but they have refused, the learned judge declares, to devote themselves entirely to these necessary subjects ig- n@ring the mighty issues of right and wrong. They have faced the actuali- ties of government and as & result during the past ten years women of all classes everywhere show —— increase of interest in governmenta problems. Judge Allen points out that the ef- fect of woman’s suffrage is often con- fused with the effect of the eight- eenth amendment and that much of the hostility against woman suffrage now manifest may undoubtedly be traced to the conviction that the majority of women favor prohibition enactment. She tersely calls atten- tion to the fact that prohibition was enacted by men six months before the passing of the nineteenth amend- ment gave the right of franchise to women. While Judge Allen states that the majority of women prefer to retain the prohibition against the liquor traffic, it can not be considered as a suffrage issue. Whatever credit there be for enforcement, must be given to men, except in the case of Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, former Assistant Attorney General, whom Judge Allen declarés no doubt worked with her Pho 504 & > a y ee ht—Miss Mina ii cs , 7a ~~ C.

A. in Bast St. Louis, I1l., was a recent visitor to the association. Health Education. Three new evening classes at the K street pool will start this week on Hands tied. “During the last ten years,” Judge Allen writes, “we have witnessed un- usual scandals in Government. The influence which culminated in these scandals had been brewing for a long time. The reign of the bomber and the racketeer and the gunman in our great cities had its inception decades ago when decent men handed over Government to the least desirable class of the community * ° The political orgy of the last ten years was the -harvést of the seed sown for decades in our apathy to- wards Government. “The only cure for this evil is militant interest in Government.” In another place Judge Allen calls those who say that women have had no effect in cleansing politics strictly to account. These people, she declares. “completely ignore the testimony of legislators who bear witness to the changed conditions on committees in all sorts of official boards where women now participate as members “It is the frequent testimony of | men who sit upon these bodies,” the judge continues, “that whereas here- tofore all-night meetings of a some- what riotous character were held in hotel rooms, where important Gov- ermment policies were decided, now such meetings have to be open arid decently conducted because of the presence of women in politics.” The National League of Women Voters, in a current bulletin, points out the activity of American women with many different interests during the so-called vacation periods. Hun- dreds of women leaders are gathered about conference tables in various parts of the world to discuss political and governmental problems of mutual concern. P On the island of Hawali in the Pa- cific, among the hills of New England and in the historic State of Virginia, “thoughts breathe and words burn” as the Pan-American Women's Confer- ence, the Williamstown Institute of Politics, and the University of Vir- ginia Institute of Public Affairs hold | daily sessions.

A meeting of all the campers, di- vided into small groups, was held Monday night’ when there was a dis- cussion léd by counselors on the Camp program. AS & result of thé pooling of the désires and ideas of the girls new names were given some of the interest groups, and each group sélected a symbol of their interest to wear. After flag lowering, the entire camp gathered around the big oak tree for an hour of poetry, whith was followed by creative dancing.

Many an evening. they were noted with family and guests, either having tea on the “roof garden” of the White House, or later, dining in the cool. evening breeze that swept in from;the Potomac. The Taft’s probably derived greater enjoyment from the gardens of the White House than any of the Presidents although President and Mrs. Wilson; too, were devotees of outdoor en- tertaining. T O the artistic taste of the first Mrs. Wil- son and to her penchant for landscape gardening the Nation owes a great deal, as the present charm-of arrangement, the for- mal Italian gardens and tle grouping of shrubs at the rear of the mansion are the result, largely, of efforts expended by her during the earlier administration of Wood- row Wilson. It was Mrs. Wilson who sug- gested the present attractive grouping of the famous Dolly Madison rosebushes, the lay- ing out of the formal Italian garden, the beautifying of “the President’s walk’ and the removal of the splendid marble benches from the great fountains to thefr position nearer the mansion. 2 What would wedo without our President’s wives?

Slips from the original tree, wherever it may have been, have found their way throughout the land, one of them having been transplanted by President Andrew John- son himself to the spot where he had chosen to be buried at Greenville, Tenn., and there it is foday, guarding his grave. / . = . 7 EMORY fails to recall a willow on the White House lawns, but several gift trees fpom foreign rulers grace the garden and Snhance the background for garden fetes which really are a part of the summer White House schedule. Outdoor fetes haven't flourished this summer as in former adminis- trations. The President and Mrs. Hoover may” have planned several for the early summer, but Mrs. Hoover’s illness precluded White House hospitalities early in the season and the fetes dwindled to’ one garden party given for the war véterans to climax the dull days of mid July. That the President and Mrs. Hoover, if they do go West, will be able to arrange their itinerary on the homeward stretch to reach Washington for the White House garden fete that will be the high light of entertainment for the visiting jurists, the last week in August, seems highly improbable. Of course the members of the “‘baby cabinet” and their wives could dispense American hospitality to the queen’s taste, yet it would be pleasant to stroll again through the picturesque lawns with the Chief Executive and First Lady in the foreground. However, they may come hurrying from the West. One or two White House lawn fetes honor- ing distinguished foreign visitors come to mind, particularly the delighfful party given by former President and Mrs. Taft fora Japa- nese admiral and his suite and a large out- door fete given by President Wilson in honor of a group of notable South American scien- tists here to attend a conference of Pan- American experts. Friends.of the former President and Mrs. Taft (and now legion they are) cherish, the brilliant night fete in the White House gardens, June 19, 1911, given on the twenty- fifth @wniversary of hele wedding—their si!- ver anniversary. All Washington was there, the party crowning all events during the sum- mer, ’ It is hoped that nothing will crop up to prevent the outdoor entertainment for the foreign barristers who will be guests of the American Bar Association at their convention in Washington. Already they are crossing the Atlantic, one group of five jurists having sailed from Southampton in one day and many French lawyers now on the high seas. Among the distinguished lords of the privy council to attend the conference as represent- ative of the British bar will be Lord MacMil- lan, Baron of Aberfeldy, who is the brother of Mrs. W. J. Baxter, of Washington. With him will be Lady MacMillan, Lord MacMillan too, the remembrance of. . a ¢ ‘ ony “805 > ss Miss Nancy Jones, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Ellwood Jones, and her cousin.

For the Vice President will be the lion of the hour during a brief visit which he will pay to the colony at Newport the latter part of the week as guest of Mrs. George Mesta at The Rocks. On the day of his.arrival there, next Friday, Mrs. Mesta will entertain at a large dinner at her estate, while on Saturday afternoon, Mrs, Eugene 8. Reynal will be a luncheon hostess in his honor at Beachmound, overlooking Bailey’s Beach. That evening Commodore and Mrs.gArthur Ourtiss James will give a dinner at Beacon Hill House. The Vice President will go later to visit his daugh- ter in Providence, R. I. » ” ~ _ Mrs. Edward Everett Gann and Mrs. Wal- ter F.

Mrs. Gann has opened her Cleveland Park house and it was there that Vice President Curtis went upon his return from Kansas, As for Mrs. Brown; she represents the lone cabinet hostess left in town. With the departure last week of Mrs. Mitchell; who with the Attorney General and their son, William Mitchell, sail- ed for Scotland, the Capital waved farewell to the last feminine representative of the Cabinet group. > 7 . _ HE Scotch moors, all purple and white ji now with fragrant heather, are calling to devotees @f grouse shooting, and August finds the usual representative gathering of folk linked Washington. in one Way and another with At their country house near Glasgow, Mr. and Mrs. John Henderson have as guests during the pheasant season Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Stead, who sailed only a week ago for Scotland. Mrs. Henderson was Miss Dorothy Yates, daughter of Repre- sentative and Mrs. Yates, of Illinois, and with her usual gift of adaptability has fitted ad- mirably into Scotch country life. The Hender- sons have restored one of the old castles iu the picturesque Glasgow country and their house is the mecca for groups of guests who love the soft mist of the moors and the hos- pitality of Mr. and Mrs. Henderson. Going up'for the shooting from Paris are Mr. and Mrs. Axel Wichfeld, who leave the French capital on Tuesday for the north. Mrs. Wichfeld formerly was, Mrs. Moore, widow of Mr. Clarence Moore, who lost his life on the Titanic. She was Miss Mabel Swift, of Chica- go, and her Washington house is now the home of the Canadian Legation. The Wich- feld’s go to.the Trossachs, lovely land of Loch Katrine and Loch Ellen, where they have taken Blair Castle, owned by the Duke of Atholl, and famed for its storming in 1643 by Oliver Cromwell. Another former Wash- ington hostess now living a-part of the time in Scotland is the Marchioness of Huntley, formerly Mrs, James MacDonald, now the wife of the premier Marquess of Scotland. Huntley Arms opens wide its doors in the shooting season and this year will be no ex- ception. . * 7 7 NE links the love of a beautiful house, somehow, with the people of the North, Only last week the newly appointed Minister to Norway, Mr. Hoffman Philip, purchased an attractive house on Massachusetts avenue, just off Sheridan circle and adjoining the home of Mr. and Mrs, Jouett Shouse, with the new house, nearly completed, of the Em- mons Smiths on the other side.

No matter what the thermometer, such a Woman is always cool and immaculate; she a)l- Ways wears the right thing at the right time. This instinct for the ap- propriate costume is oné of the most vital secreta of summer smartness. Appropriate Summer Costumes. Fortunately, since cottons have be- come so varied, not to mention fash- jonable, the problem of cool and cor- rect summer clothes is greatly sim- plified. The woman who has good taste in the selection and wearing of her wardrobe never appears in elab- orately cut silk or chiffon dresses be- fore luncheon. Her morning frocks are crisp and dainty—linen or piqué, figured lawn, batiste or voilé, ging- ham or cotton broadcloth. She fa- vors light printed silks or flat crepes, shantung and kindred washablé fab- rics. for more forma] evénts, and prefers ballibuntl, bakou, bangkok, Milan, Leghorn and Panama; or hats that cunningly imitate linen-like weaves. She chooses cotton frocks for all her country activities and knows that the woman who disdains thém pro- claims her provinciality. She wears She reserves her lacy straw hats N the midst of August “dog days,” oi inen and Pique suits all day, in néeu- tral, dark shades for town and street Wear; in pastels for the country. Favorite Cotton Sports Outfits, A popular costume is a three-piece affair of skirt, shirt and shorts, worn for tennis or béach minus the ‘skirt and for golf with the wrap-around skirt. Besides being comfortable, this does away with al) undérgar- méntse other than a foundation.

New Tariff May Revive Pottery Stimulus in Industry Nation Is Expected by Ohio Workers. East Liverpool,, Ohio, Aug 9 (A.P.) A stimulus to the Nation’s pottery industry is expected by Ohio potters to result from the Hawley-Smoot tariff law. James M.

Czecho- | slovakia, France and even Great Brit- ain. Benefits to American industry, he said, probably will not be realized before September 1.

Was a time when Sun- day morning; strolling brought forth luxuriously dressed ladies who made the: phrase. “Sunday-go-to-meeting” clothes-a tradition. Behold them in satin frocks, their “very best’ coats of velvet or silk, ermine trimmed, their’ pearls and best bonnets! They were going out to walk, and they knew they were going to see every one they ever knew, and they weren't going to take any chances that someone else would be better dressed—from the point of view of claborateness. That was then! Now another autumn has come to a woolen mixture. It will be neither short nor long, but pay attention to its silhouette. For as to silhoutte, to be really smart it must affect that broadness in the shoulders which the Prince of Wales made popular for men’s clothes. And it must have some indication of a normal line.

In December, 1800, Henry Foxall,} ‘prominent citizen, former partner with Robert Morris, of Philadelphia, and friend of Presidents Jefferson, | ‘Madison and Monroe, acquired a tract of land about a mile north of George- . town, on the Potomac River. On this site, where now. live nearly two hun- dred Village families, Foxall built the first cannon foundry to be erected in this country, south of Philadelphia. The Foxall Poundry supplied guns and ammunition for many important events in the new Republic’s warfare. Most of the heavy guns used ig the War of 1812 and the first bored guns manufactured in this country were cast in this Georgetown foundry. The -Foxall guns, drawn country to the Great Lakes during the criti- cal period when England was supreme on those inland seas, helped to equip Perry so well that he was able to change the situation on the Great es. After Henry Foxall’s death, the foundry passed under the direction of Gen. John Mason and was known as .the Columbian Foundry. It was enlarged and here most of the heavy gums used in the Mexican War were cast. * This historical background which Foxhall Village possesses, and the Natural beauty of the location, com- bined with the sheer artistry of the houses themselves, make it a place of arresting individuality. It is so Gifferent from anything .which has been built in this country before that it has aroused national comment and praise, and it should be a source of de to Washingtonians to know hat such recogniged strides in com- unity development are being made ére in their own midst.

Through fan afched. .medieval doorway of metal-studded oak, situated in the northwest corner, the visitor enters onto a stately gallery overlooking and leading into the living room. This is sunken to a depth of about two feet below the flanking gallery and separated from K by 4 railing of art-wrought bronze, of which mMa- terial the balustrade of the -main stairway is also built. The walls of the living room are in ecru zonta finish, and the woodwork is in walnut, as are those of the other rooms, with the. exception of the kitchen, which jis done in cream and white. There are decorative bas-re- liefs, such as galleons and aescutch- eons, placed at artistic points of van- tage, and the electric candelabra and chandeliers are in bronze, with rose- colored lights. . Proceeding east along the gallery there is a lavatory at the first turn, and the east entrance of the gallery is into an unusually large dining room. East of this is a room well lighted, as are all in the house, which may be used as a sun parlor, den or breakfast room. Southeast of the dining room is a spacious. kitchen and pantry. Entrance to the basement is effect- ed by a stairway from the kitchen. There is a well-equipped laundry, coal closet, cold storage room and furnace in the basement. Modern Motors Demand New Technique in Driving Methods Employed in 1920 Will Not Produce Per- formance Inherent in 1930 Cars; Steering and Gear Shifting Different Now. - By WILLIAM ULLMAN, Driving a motor car is not what it used to be. Nearly every motorist is aware of that fact, but a great many are found not to have acted upon it. They go along stepping on accel- erators, turning steering wheels, shift- ing gears and applying’ brakys in pretty much the same old routine; way. To get the full, delicate, lithe and powerful performance of which their modern cars are capable, how- ever, they should be certain that their driving is thoroughly modern, too. Some of the most recent improve- ments in cars are such as to abso- lutely compel modification in driving technique. For instance, in one of the new eight-cylinder cars that has attracted so much attention if one tries to shift gears with the con- ventional delay in neutral between second and high gear he may get a clashing noise. However, if he elimi- nates the delay and. virtually lets the gear shift itself he discovers that the transmission is designed just to make gear shifting easy and noiseless. In a still more novel transmission in one of the newer lines, gear shift- ing of an even more revolutionary nature is in order. In this case the clutch does not have to be touched at all in going from second to high or vice versa. That is so radically dif- ferent from normal, however, that the driver can not help but conform to the new method. But gear shifting is not the only aspect of driving that is different. There is steering, for example. Steering mechanisms have been undergoing steady modification dur- ing the last two years, but there have been so many-other things to talk about in cars newly introduced that this feature has not been empha- sized. Yet today’s automobile can be steered raore finely and with greater ease than the automobile of two years ago. Ratios in the steering mechan- ism now require less whee] movement in proportion. to. front-wheel travel and still they do not require any greater expense of energy despite the reduction. As a matter of fact, they are easier to operate. Many have not found out what they can do with this more positive, easier steering from the standpoint of safety.

The motorist using his 1920 driving technique often is afraid to really use the modern steering mechanism to the limit in safety performance. This, too, despite the fact that he has discovered. that he can take a curve on the open highway at a speed of 40 miles an hour without getting over the white line or have the rear end of the car slip into a tangent. He may have learned how to use his superior brake system to the best advantage in driving with safety, but not the steering. And it is well rec- ognized that one should be able to steer out of as many difficulties as he avoids by stopping. Many authorities on car design grant that the modern automobile may have brought an engineering problem in connection with gear shifting. *t the same time they de- clare, however, that a part of the present noise and difficulty in shift- ing gears is due’to the application of old car driving methods to new cars. With a little effort and a little understanding of the need for a modi- fied driving technique much of the grating and clashing of gears when the traffic stream moves away at the signal light could be avoided. There is greater speed and greater weight in transmission parts but both can be used effectively and noiseless- ly to a large extent ifthe driver rec- ognizes the need for delicate handling of the gear’ shift’ lever and perfect coordination in his handling of the accelerator and clutch. Some drivers of modern passenger | oo) cars have taken'’a leaf fromthe bus operator and are ysing what amounts to double clutching when shifting from second to high—-where most of the clashing occurs. During the mo- ment of halting in neutral, between the two combinations, they, let in the clutch and step lightly on the. ac- Doing 80, they speed up the driving gears until their rate of Continued on Page 3, Column 2. |piled by F.

Airplane retailing is patterning after " the selling of automobiles,’used planes are being accepted as part payment on .

Mr. Warrington ~ who ig a pioneer automobile mer- chant sees mo reason as to why the same sales methods can not be applied to the selling of air transportation _*that is used in disposing of other mer- -"cantile lnes. ‘ re is constant improvement and *,changes going on in the aeroplane in- * dustry the same as there is in the y automobile and owners are wanting *something new in the way of ships,” «says Mr. Warrington. “It is my pur- * pose to handle the sale of ships the *-same as I would the sale of my line .of automobiles.

Right here the purchaser {of a rebuilt plane has the best guar- ,antee in the world of its condition, -'a certificate from the Department of Commerce, because every rebuilt plane, the same as every néw one, must be passed by a Government in- s@pector and issued a certificate of ‘condition and operation. “Those that are not worth recon- ditioning I shall salvage the parts ;that are worth keeping and destroy ‘the rest. There is always a market for “used parts and, of course, only those parts will,;be kept which do not show signs of wear, and there are a large number of them on every plane the ,eame as there is on every automobile.” Mr. Warrington does not intend to confine his sales plan to Washington alone, but as he says areoplanes have changed sales boundary lines so that today it Is rather'so many hours’ fly- ing ‘time rather than so many miles that count, he expected to put this plan into operation all along the Atlantic seaboard. Its results will be watched with in- terest not only by aeroplane’ manu- facturers themselves but by aviators as well. Some factories heretofore have accepted planes in trade, but this is the first-known instance of an in- .dividual dealer doing it. Pope Is Given Old Tomb. Vatican City, Aug. 9 (A.P.).—A Christian sarcophagus, dating from the second century, was one of the last gifts presented to Pope Pius XI at the close of his “jubilee year.” The pontiff thanked the donor, Commen- datore Pericle Staderni, and sent the handsome marble piece to the Lat- the two gears mesh quietly. same method in shifting back from third to second will achieve the same end. A lot of trouble laid to faulty trans- mission design by drivers who shift gears with a lot of noise is faulty use of the clutch. In some cases, the clutch is pushed too far “out;” in others, not enough. In still other instances it is not the result of either faulty design nor of mishandling of the controls, but of poor condition of the driving mech- anism. A slipping or spinning cluth or loose bearings in the transmission will cause gear grating. One of these or perhaps a combination of. these causes is responsible for much of the grating that car owners put down to engineering difficulties. One of the happiest characteristics of the new cars and the one most pleasant to many car buyers also happens to be one of the most abused. The feature in question jis accelera- tion. The modern car is tremen- dously responsive to the accelerator. This responsiveness, however, is at- tainable without damage to the drive mechanism or destruction of the tires if the accelerator is handled carefully and the clutch the same way. If the clutch is let in roughly and the throttle suddenly opened, there is enough power in today’s engine to spin the rear wheels. It is being done all the time, and pavements are covered more than ever with rub- ber dust—particles of rubber that as part of the original tire would make that tire go many miles farther. Getting away fast is not a mark of good driving when it is accom- panied by abuse of the car. Studies of’ the amount of rubber dust.on the near side of traflic lights shows that the deceleration charac- teristics of the modern car are even more abused than its acceleration. In other words, good brakes are being badly used. For the first jime In motor car his- tory there is a belief now that brakes Brae ip through the ages architecture has continually developed and construction methods have progressea accordingly.

Studies of driving tecnnique yield positive evidenge that this is the case among bus drivers and commer- cial vehicle drivers—not im every in- stance, but in many. And if it is true among, these professional driv- ers who are under surveillance in- spectors as well as being regarded generally as more skilled, it is held to be even more true among the av- erage private passenger car operators. Some feel that a deceleration of more than 6 miles per second is a limit that might be placed upon the brake system in perfect condition. The : attitude in some. Mmstances is based upon the fact that too fast braking has been responstble for ac- cidents; that the very force. with which one control operates some- times make it impossible for the driver to operate the others. The rear seat passengers being hurled for- ward upon the driver do make it rather difficult for him to handle the controls. Rear seat passengers are thrown forward by many brake ap- plications these days. Perfect coordination between the accelerator and the brakes, which means stopping use of the former sufficiently far in advance of using the latter to avoid violent braking, is possible and shows an understand- ing of modern’ driving. Even dual beam headlights are mishandled by some drivers Un- thinkingly, many drive on the open highway with the lower beam in use and, in congestion, with the long range beam shining in the eyes of on-coming drivers. This represents a complete failure to make use Of & type of lighting equipment that has helped to make cars inherently .safer. It is not good driving. Many think that the _ greatest achievement of the car designer is the thrill that hg can give such a mundane occupation as driving an automobile. He has managed to make a car that drives differently.

That ts| ter, which is the first step toward, the owner's own . task. . : Sales departments in the automo- tive industry may not have been as busy during recent months as many could have hoped but the engineering departments have been. As a result of what the engineering departments have been doing, and are doing still, the sales department expects to be busier from now on. Throughout its long experience, the motor car industry ‘has learned to say profitably: “Well, if that kind of car won't sell as well as it did, how about this Kind of car?” Then, the engineering department gets busy de- signing ‘‘this Kind’ of car.. ‘The next steps are getfing the production de- partment to. producing it and the sales department to selling it. That is the cycle. Midyear model introductions show that the first. part of the cycle has been completed. The engineering department has done its task in sev- eral ing&tances. Among other evi- dences of its work this summer are five brand-new. eight-cylinder cars where sixes were growing a _ short time ago; two entirely new eights; two redesigned sixes and one four; one entirely mew transmission de- sign; the ye yg of a proved type of transmission to a new series of cams; the development of a new en- gine feature known as the air-intake silencer; of something entirely new in small cars; and new types in body design as well as numerous additions to the array of body models. Thus, the cycle is under way and more definitely than it has started for several years for the simple reason that things had slowed down to a point that a more positive start was necessary. creation of an oil-cooling | }radiator; the design and production | | lee, doing better. a7 Motor car manufacturers generally are justly proud of the close toler- ances to which various parts of their product are held. Ten-thousandths of an inch is a fraction used in- humerable times in speaking of clearances between close-fitting units. It is this refinement that ie account- able for a large degree of the dura- | bility, the silence, and the fine. per- formance of today’s motor cars. The fine limits of fit have been emphasized, in the main, in connec- tion with what the motor car factory can do and not what the service sta- tion and repair establishment can achieve in this important direction. Now, the latter undoubtedly has not reached the same dégree of pro- ficiency in respect to precision that has been attained ‘In the former sphere. Yet its gains in this direc- tion have been much more imprés-* sive than many car owners realize. The tool maker has not ignoted the repair field in the creation of ma- chines that assure a high degree of precision in the restoration of crank- shafts to their former roundness, of valves to their original snugness, of valve seats to their fine evenness of fit. The same is true of a host of other parts where tolerances must be held to close limits. It requires a considerable invest- ment to equip a service or repair establishment with the superlative measuring devices and machine tools that will do the fine work that these instruments of measurement require. Many shops have made this invest- ment, however. Many others are making it.

SUNBURNED BY HEA Ultra Violet Rays of -Sun Bake In. Dust, Thus Im- pairing Luster. HOW TO PROLONG FINISH The present hot, dry spell is hav- ing ite effect upon the finish of auto- mobiles ag well as on many ‘ther things. It might be sajd that motor cars are getting sunburned. The hot, dry air combined with the ultra vio- 4 let rays of the sun Have a tendency to bake into the finish the fine par- ticles of dust and the grime of the air which in turn tend to disintegrate the tiny pigments originally put in the finish to color it. Many people complain when they have their cars washed that the body and fenders are not clean, that there still remains « skum on them. That is true, there still remains the skum but simply washing will not remove it. Using a cleaner and polish is the only thing that -vill restore the luster. As long as these particles and the hardened dirt film cover the finish, there will be ro lustre. When, how- ever, the “traffic film” and chalked pigment are removed, the original color and luster of the finish is re- stored and it is just as bright and shiny as when the car was new. If the finish is very old, or has been very thin at the start. it may have weathered right through to the undercoat. Should this happen, it will be apparent when the car is polished, because the undercoat is usually of a different and darker color. In this case the car should be refinished—at least at the spots where the undercoat is showing. Two Ways to Ald Finish. There are two ways of prolonging the life of @he finish. First, by pro- tecting it from the sun as much as possible. Second, by having it waxed ultra violet rays of the sun. One can sit behind a closed window wll day long and not get sunburned, even though the sun is shining directly on the person. Polishing wax, like window glass, excludes the ultra violet rays of the sun. If, therefore, | theré applied a thin coating of /wax over the finish, it will filter out the ultra violet rays and _ retard weathering until the wax wears off. It ts best to apply oF pene wax to @& car as soon as it purchased. lf, however, this is neglected, a pol- ishing wax can always be applied as long as there is a finish On the car. But the finish must be thoroughly cleaned before a wax can be applied satisfactorily. It is not enough to have the car washed. It must be polished, also, to remove chalked pig- ment and traffic film. [If the car has not. been polished for some time, it is best to make two or three applica- tions of the polish before using the wax, making sure to remove every bit of chalked pigment and dim film. How Wax Is Applied. Then apply the polishing wax, using it sparingly nd rubbing it vigorously to develop a good shine. It will prob- ably not produce any higher luster than was developed with the polish, but it will zive a luster which will last for months—and it will protect the finish as well. In the summer time there is a great deal nore ultra violet in the sunlight than in the winter time, so it is especially important to have the car. polished and waxed regularly in summer.

The point recently was ruled upon by the State Supreme Court of Nebraska which declared that the undenied ad- mission on the part of the car’s owner was clear evidence that the brakes failed to meet the requirements of “good and sufficient’’ set forth in the law. Another interesting aspect of the decision in the case was that while defective brakes, per se, were not evi- dence of negligence on the driver's part, they should be considered to- gether with all the other evidence relating to the point. . * .

And Ray is your wife. Even Caesar's wife wasn’t above suspicion, was she? Suppose we go and look for Ray together?” “Latry, you're simply out of your head.” Trudi rose wearily to her feet, chalk-faced but level-eyed. “Not one human being had said a word to Jill.

Is Jill all right, Lindy?” Lindy asked softly, “Better, dar- ling?” and the girl in the deep chair nodded a listless head, tried to smile reassurance and gave it up as though it were hardly worth the effort.

WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ee ee ee a — — OOS a0 eee ee te eee eee ~ ‘AUGUST. 10, 1930. Jack Holt in “Hell’s Island” —f'ox, CAUTIOUS AMUSEMENT BUYERS AND THE DEAN’S SORRY GUESS By NELSON B. BELL SOMETHING more than cursory survey of the present state of the cinema has served to strengthen the belief of this depart- ment that the articulate screen, tn several of its more im- portant aspects, has once again reached almost precisely the same point at which it found Itself just prior to the advent of sound in 1926. That is to say, the novelty has pretty thoroughly worn off the in- novation of speaking and singing shadows and the eye, more or less, is becoming sated with the multitinted splendor of natural color celluloid. Asserting itself over and beyond the bewildering glamour of both of these unaccustomed elements of audibility and pigmenta- tion comes again the vital matter of entertainment. The public is shopping for its amusement and refusing to part with even a thin dime through those wickets where it feels none is to be had. There must be something now beyond the mere matters of noise and color—a sound and engaging idea, intelligently and interestingly treated by experts in a craft that can not be picked up by the tyro over night. This is the position that was occupied by the silent drama immedi- ately preceding the time when it was crowded into the limbo of forgotten things—or almost forgotten. at any rate—-by the sudden splatter of synchronized syllables emitted by Vitaphone four years ago this month. A picture in those old dead days, to command atten- tion, perforce must possess some conspicuous merit in addition to the single and familiar power to visualize movement. It was essential that the movement take it somewhere. By the same teken, the screen today must possess substantial at- tributes that extend beyond a meager talent for creating commotion and looking pretty. There must he a thought mixed up in the formula somewhere, i. ae that has not always been leveled at mediocrity in the theater, nor does it bespeak blanket condemnation of any given group of pictures or type of production, any more than the supposed prejudice against the so-called “costume picture” held good when a really excellent costume picture came along-—-like ‘'Passion,’’ the memorable pic- turization of the life of Mme, Du Barry, for example. That is why, it it_is a hazardous guess to say that musical revues on the screen are ‘‘out,” or that backstage stories “won't go’’ any more, or that eourtroom dramas are ‘‘cold.’’ | This is true only of the undistinguished and doubtfully authentic ninth and tenth.carbon copies of originals that were recognized as of meri- torius worth. Those originals would still be acclaimed. It is for this reason that | anticipate the musical productions now in preparation with quite as much pleasure and impatience as I do any of the more ponderous works of a dramatic nature that are sup- posed to mark the new season—borrowing through sheer inad- vertence a designation from the living theater that is a gross mis- nomer when applied to a nonexistent period in the motion picture houses. 7 HIS is a dictum the cash customer has laid down and one the producers have been quick to grasp. It makes operative no ban seems to me, When Grace Moore makes her debut in the elaborate production which bears the tentative title of “Jenny Lind,” and deals with the hichlights of the professional career of the Swedish nightingale, it is to be expected that no less enthusiastic public clamor will greet so worthy a work than upon “The Rogue Song’ when Lawrence Tibbett thrilled a secment of the populace theretofore un- familiar with so magnificent a voice or so flamboyant a quality of acting. From the combined efforts of Florenz Ziegfeld, Samuel Goldwyn and Eddie Cantor, I should say no less superlative entertainment should be expected upon the release of the Technicolor picturization of ‘‘Whoopee,” the last stage vehicle of the dynamic young comedian so recently in our midst. These and their like will prove, I helieve, that the public will not ignore musicalized films of genuineness and merit any more than it will cease to resent those that are obviously inferior or flagrantly repetitious. . NOTHER augury for an especially fruitful and profitable year of pictures may be discerned in the superb bit of. whistling in the dark done upon the recent occasion of his seventy-sixth birthday celebration in Atlantic City by David Belasco, the dean of American theatrical producers whose views heretofore have always been ac- cepted as gospel by the faithful. was showered * 7 * . It is Mr. Belasco’s avowed conviction that the talking film has run its course and is now about to die the death. In dn interview that has been extensively republished and widely commented upon, he de- nominated the audible celluloids as ‘‘the squawkies,’’ and in then? professed to see merely an interesting fad for which there is no hope, either artistic or financial. A page might well be borrowed by Mr. Belasco from Mr. Ziegfeld's future book. Having viewed the results of his maiden effort as a movie producer in ‘‘Whoopee,"’ the great glorifier has declared it to be his purpose hereafter to make a few pretentious musical pro- ductions for the stage each year which he will present as usual for stage runs in the key cities, whereupon they will be reenacted in settings and investitures appropriate to the broader scope of tht camera and photographed in natural colors with synchronized dia- logue, music and songs for general distribution among the smaller communities of the land. As soon as the wide-angle photography and projection are perfected and generally adopted, it will be his idea to make full utilization of this improved device for achieving the utmost in realistic effect. There will be numerous others to follow Mr. Ziegfeld’s lead and among them I should not be in the least surprised to find Mr. Belasco—whose boast has ever been that he sends out no No. 2 company——glad to avail himself of this means of impressing the wealth of his experience and the flower of his genius upon the consciousness of those to whom his productions under the old modus . Operandi never have penetrated. Just think what.a wow Jack Dempsey and Estelle Taylor would have been in ‘The Big Fight’ as a “David Belasco Sportlight!” | Richard Barthelmess and Neil Hamilton in “The Dawn ANOTHER EPIC OF THE FLIER AT THE EARLE Ten years ago the making of such a production as “The Dawn Patrol,” the First National-Vitaphone featu re starring Richard Barthelmess now at Warner Bros.’ Earle Theater, would have offered insurmountable difficul- ties. Today, modern scientific devel- opments have eliminated such ob- stacles. The directing of the tricky and haz- ardous air scenes in “The Dawn Pa- trol” were simplified for Director Howard Hawks by the use of the radio. On locations, the British and German airdromes, at Triunfo and Newhall, Calif.. where squadrons uf planes maneuvered in spectacular wartime scenes, elaborate radio broau- casting equipment was installed. The stunt filers, Lieuts. Ira Reed, E. H. Robinson, Leo Nomis, R. S. McAllister and Frank Tomick, were given head- gear in which earphones were Aat- tached. While zooming or looping or doing any one of a number of their daredevil stun.s the filers could listen to Hawks’ orders and act according?y. The bombing and battle scenes were made comparatively easy by devices invented and developed by Harry Red- mond, explosive expert of First Na- tional-Vitaphone. Antiaircraft fire in midair shells from long range and field guns, trench mortars, é&c., were effectively secured by bombs and bomb-throwing devices that were easily manipulated. and with mini- mum danger to the personnel. One of the cleverest arrangements credited to Redmond was a _\long, straight line illumination made by gasoline on the airfield. This was done for one of the thrilling s&e- quences made at night when a plane was supposed to make a landing. The gasoline fire arranged along the bor- der of the field was to guide the flier in making his hazardous landing. Redmond dug a long trench about two feet deep, planted a pipeline with jets. Jutting out like the old-fash- toned gas jets. From @ distant gasoline tank he pumped into these jets and turned them on in sequence so that the ef- fect was spectacular and realistic without endangering the lives of the extras who were supposedly pouring gasoline as they ran along the field. “The Dawn Patrol” is a story vf the British air service during the early years of the World War when “schoolboy” fliers were compelled to combat superior filers and planes with mediocre equipment. The cast includes Douglas Fair- banks, jr., Neil Hamilton, William Janney, James Pinlayson, Clyde Cook, Gardner James; Frank McHugh, Jack | Ackroyd and Harry Allen. Additional screen attractions in- clude Vitaphone Varieties and the Earle Newsreel. A PROGRAM OF | WIDE VARIETY AT FOX HOUSE Two Americans, a London Cockney, a few Germans, Italians and Span- lards and a lot of Frenchmen, all wearing the same uniform! The most heterogeneous and at the same time one of the most famous regiments in the world—the French Foreign Le- gion—-provides the background for “Hell’s Island,” the dramatic feature at the Fox Theater now. Jack Holt, Ralph Graves and Dorothy Sebastian are the leads. It does not take any great stretch of the imagination to picture what exceptional possibilities this back- ground offers to the abilities of Jack Holt and Ralph Graves. They will be seen in what is, paradoxically, a typi- cal but entirely different vehicle from anything they have ever made, The screen story, by Jo Swerling, derives its title, “Hell's Island,” from the dreaded prison coiony in French Gulana, in which the dramatic cli- max of the picture occurs. Leading up to this, however, are presented a series of incidents which cover a wide range. The good-natured tomfoolery between the rough-and- ready soldiers of the Legion in their pursuit of each other's “dames,” the exotic atmosphere and entertain- ment presented by «a typical Algerian cabaret, the forced marches beneath the blazing Sahara sun, the whirl- wind attacks of the fierce Riffs, Bed- ouins and Arabian tribesmen, a mill- tary tribunal and other interesting aad novel-events comprise the story and action of “Hell's Island.” Frankie Jenks, youthful master of ceremonies from the West Coast, ls making his local debut this week. The Fanchon and Marco “Coral Idea” is set against a beautiful South Sea Island background. Featured are Maurice and Vincent, the Royal Sa- moans, Sidney Page and Peggy, Petite Marie, Oscar Taylor and the Sunkist Beauties. Ron and Don, at the Fox Wurlitzer, are making their farewell appearance this week.

Keith's. PERCY HEATH EXPLAINS IT IN THIS WAY Stories for musical comedies, ro- rances and operettas must be funda- mentally sound, according to Percy Heath, screen author. “The general belief that musical stage and screen stories can be wildly improbable is entirely erroneous,” he recently explained. “On the con- trary, they must be fundamentally logical. “On the other hand, characters in such stories often are unconventional, They react in unaccustomed ways to perfectly logical situations and inci- dents, They cre free from the repres- sions which cause ordinary people to govern their conduct along certain established ‘ines. If they feel like breaking into song on the street or in their bath they do so, “Analyze jhe story for any musical production and it can be seen it might be played as a straight drama or melodrama. “As an example, there is ‘Let's Go Native,’ which George Marion, jJr., and I wrote. A girl, Jeannette MacDon- ald, has to make a trip to South America to save her business. James Hall, the boy who loves her, decides to go along. Through a combination of logical circumstances, Jack Oakie, William Austin and Kay Francis also are wboard “af As the result of a mishap they ‘ind themselves on a tropical island and a logical climax ensues. “The story might have been told as straight adventure. By making the characters unusual persons who do out-of-the-ordinary things, it be- comes & musical romance.’ the gorilla himself. POWELL AGAIN IN ROLE OF A SOPHISTICATE! The methods of a big-city crim- inal lawyer are realistically pic- tured by William Powell, the talking screen's outstanding delineator of cosmopolitan types, in “For the De- fense,” at Warner Bros. Metropolitan Theater. , “For the Defense” is a_ thrilling romantic drama of love and the law. The beautiful Kay Francis, seen here in support of in “Street of Chance,” has the role of the sauve star's sweetheart in his latest picture. Pewell is a criminal lawyer, nomenally successful—so much s0 that his methods are under police scrutiny. Miss Francis is an actress, deeply in love with Powell, but despairing that he ever will marry her. To incite his jealousy, the girl be- comes associated with a society idler. One night, when Powell thought her elsewhere, the girl was driving in a car with her new friend. The car struck and killed qa pedestrian. Con- cealing the fact that she was in the automobile, the girl asks Powell to defend her friend. The defense goes badly in the frial, and it is suddenly disclosed that the girl was driving with the accused man. From this point the story gathers new force and mounts to a powerful climax. In the cast are Thomas 8; Jackson. famous as the detective in e stage and screen productions of “Broad- way;” Scott Kolk, James Finlayson, Charles West and many others. Scott Kolk, former Washington band favorite, who, as the wealthy young big-city ne’er-do-well, plays a sensational part in “For the Defense,” is, like Rudy Vallee, another band leader from Maine, who has made good with the public. His career in the show business, while brjef, has been an active one. While a student at the University of Maine he organized a dance band which became so popular that he and his band left school to accept a vaudeville engagement. Next, Kolk played in the Broadway musical show, “Take the Air,” and following that engagement he accompanied a Meyer Davis Band to Italy, where he intro- duced the American master of cere- monies idea to the Lido, Being urged to do so by all who knew him he next went to Hollywood and has since had a series of fortunate .parts in the talkies. Additional features include new Vitaphone Varieties and the Univer- Sal newsreel, with Graham McNamee newscasting current events. phe- In Production. Seven pictures are in production at the First National Studio and on loca- tion, They are “Kismet,” starring Otis Skinner; “Adios,” starring Rich- ard Barthelmess; “College Lovers,” with Jack Whiting, Marian Nixon and Frank McHugh; “The Hot Heiress,” with Ona Munson, Ben Lyon and Tom Dugan; “Father's Son,” with Leon Janney, Lewis Stone, Irene Rich and John Halliday; “Sunny,” starring Marilyn Miller, and “Little Caesar,” with Edward G. Robinson, Douglas Fairbanks, jr., Sidney Blackmer, Ralph Ince and Buster Collier. Two forth- coming pictures which have just been completed are “Going Wild,” starring Joe E. Brown, and “The Gorilla,” with Joe@ Frisco, Harry Gribbon, Walter Pidgeon and Lila Lee—not to forget | FAMOUS ACTOR EVOLVES PLAN TO WHIP MIKE “The microphone reminds me of working in a room with a very nervous person—one of those peo- ple who jump if you tap the floor with your toe unexpectedly. In fact, by imagining he's in @ room with -such a person, the actor is sure he'll never make & noise that'll spoil his scene.” This is the formula of Louis Mann for being safe in talking pic- tures. The. New York stage star evolved it while appearing in his first feature role in “Sins of the Children,” Metro - Goldwyn + Mayer drama of family life now playing at Loew's Palace. Talking pictures, Mann believes, of- ford the actor even better oppor- tunities fer expressing meanings than the stage, and he says this after years of experience ranging from Shakespeare with McCullough and Barrett to musical comedy with Weber and Fields. Mann has ap- peared in dozens of plays, and has written a great many, “The talking pictures, with micro- phone and closeup, bring the adi- ence face to face with the player,” he says. “It means that the player must be far more careful to give a good performance, but it also means that the audience will get fine points of it that might be lest on the stage.” Sam Wood directed the new picture. in which Mann plays the father of a family, and comedy and pathos are blended in the comparison of eld and new generations. The cast includes Leila Hyams, Robert Montgomery, Elliott Nugent, Francis X. Bushman, jr., James Don- lan, Clara Blandick, Dell Henderson, | Robert McWade, Henry Armetta and a number of clever children, includ- ing Phillipe de Lacey, Betsy Ann His- le, Evelyn and Edwin Mills and Gor- don Thorpe. On the stage, Jack Pepper, once of Washington, the big man from the South, will be featured in “Get Hap- py.” with Bobby Gillette, the banjo- playing M. C. Jack Wolf and Paul Garner, two Washington boys who made good in the city, come home with the unit. Gordon and King, glorifying the American dance; May Joyce, petite mistress of song, and & ballet of Chester Hale Girls complete the cast. Dick Liebert, who enters his sev- enth consecutive week and is still going strong at the organ, will pre- sent another original number, The Hearst Metrotone News, short sub- — and the Palace Orchestra, under Jarry Borjes, complete the bif. ~ A DOG’S LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD IS VERY SOFT “Tove me love my dog,” goes the old saying. Many of the motion picture: stars of Hollywood would give it heartfelt indorsement. Nearly all of the most famous of them have dogs that are their friends and com- panions. Billie Dove was completely upset when Lassie, her Scotch terrier, was lost recently. And when Lassie be- came a mother, that too was an event. Miss Dove expands at leneth when the subject turns to Lassie’s un~- usual qualities, Lassie, according to her mistress, is quite the best behaved dog in Hollywood, She isn't noisy and she doesn't get under foot, which in Miss- Dove's opinion is a dog’s prime virtue. Alexander Gray sends his police dog, Peter, to a dog school where Hollywood animals are taught so that their accomplishments will be of the quality befitting their famous’ own- ers Then there’s Hamlet, the Great Dane that Joan Crawford gave to Douglas Fairbanks, jr. Both Doug and Joah admit that Hamlet is of no earthly use—they let him stay in the houge where he is constantly knock- ing something over and they agree that he is the clumsiest piece of animal flesh imaginable. Yet Hamlet is accorded all kinds of special privi- leges. Joan has & smaller dog. She left it in Doug's dressing room while he was playing at the Vine Street Theater in “The Youngest.”” Some one left the dressing room door open and the -dog wandered out on the stage during the course of the “play. Now they are al- ways carefy] to shut the door. David Manners has a dog— just plain dog—which obeys perfectly. When told to do so it lies for hours without making a move. It can be tossed on a couch and it will Me in exactly the position in which it falls. Fred. Kohler, the big burly Western actor, keeps “pekes.” He also has a Russian wolfhound and an alredale. Ona Munson so much admired Lupe Velez’s chihuahua dogs that Lupe agreed to secyre three for her from Mexico. They require almost more care than babies, Ona declares. Any- way. the dogs were duly purchased and very app tely named Lupe, George White (after the musteal comedy producer), and Cocoa. ge ee te ot ae ~ beet Se $ ai 4. eee. © rs, es a, ned lead ON RE, peat ere Bete kak = 2 “ ' Ae FF cit eo be % - “~% hy, = Norma Shearer in “Let Us Be Gay” —Columbia.

Born in Milwaukee and graduating from the Wiseonsin College of Music at the age of 17, Roemheld studied in Berlin for geveral years under such continental masters as Hugo Kaun, Breithaupt, Petri and Busoni and after touring Euro as a concert pianist became conductor of the Ber- lin Symphony Orchestra. When Roemheld returned from abroad, Carl Laemmle engaged him as the musical conductor at the Al- hambra Theater, Milwaukee, follow- ing Roemheld’s creation of the musi- cal score for “The Phantom of the Opera.” He later became musical di- rector for the Rialto Theater in this city, Jeased from Tem Moore by Uni- versal. Mr, Laemmle then promoted him to thé managersiip; as well as musical direction, of Universal's two Berlin theaters, the Mercedes and the Palast Returning to America, Roemheld joined the musical staff at Universal City. With Charlies Wakefield Cad- man, he prepared the musical score an@ several songs for “Captain of the Guard,” ineluding “For You” and “You-¥You Alone,” and has many original musical compositions for subsequent Universal pictures, one of the most recent being. the full score for “White Hell of Pitz Patu.” Roemheld turned down a contrac to tour America as guest pianist with various symphony orchestras to ac- cept his new position at the head of the Universay City musical de- partment. Roemheld comes from a musical family. At the age of 4 he was tour- ing the country as an infant prodigy concert planist, Mr. Roemheld will probably best be recalled by Washington as Rox Rom- mell, under which name he served as musical director at the Rialto. JOE COOK AND > ALL HIS GAGS SECOND: WEEK Joe Cook im “Rain of Shine” is heid over a ad week at. R-K-O Keith's. The pic Has broken all sunmimer attendance at the Fifteenth street play , packing the theater to capacity the past week. Stage stars, mn atars, vaudeville stars and qireus atars, all combine to make “Rain or Shine” the laugh sen- sation of the season. Joe Cook exhibits some of the most magnificent nonsense and engaging lunacy that one could possibly dream of. He is a comedian with a brand of laugh material that is exclusively his own. We discover him as an ac- robat, a musician, a juggler, a tight rope walker, a magician, a singer, and what not. ; A circus, complete in every detail, forms the background of the story. This is the first time that a stage musical comedy has been brought to the screen without uging the music. In place of the music, Columbia has accentuated the comedy and the nar- rative and given the production a colorful. circus background, with the performers at*work, the side show in operation and all the oolor and glamour of the sawdust ring. The story is concerned with the efforta af Joe Smiley to keep the Rainey Cireus running smoothly and profitably for Mary Rainey sags = nee the villainous behaylor of the master and the lion tamer and the tricky habite of the weather man. About thie plot is unfolded a most hilarious egmic aituation, One has to see it to appreciate it. It ls side- splitting. It will keep you in gales of laughter. , Such film favorites as Louise Fa- zvenda, William Collier, jr., Joan Peers, Adoiph Milar and Alan Roscoe all perform cleverly. Mr. Cook’s stage associates, Tom Howard and Dave Chasen, are not far behind the atar in getting laughs on their own ac- cord. One of the greatest comic combinations ever seen on the scregn is Louise Fazenda and Tom Howard. CROTHERS HIT FINE VEHICLE ' FOR ACE CAST “Well, it was the first time I ever rested and werked at the same | time,” was the quick reply made by | Marie Dressler in answer to an in- quiry as to how she liked her role in “Let Us Be Gay,” Norma Shearer's new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer talkie now being shown at Loew's Columbia. Cast as an eccertric dowager, Miss Dressler enacts her part always seate- ed in a luxurious armchair, never moving, beyond an occasional violent gesture. “It certainly was great not to have to fall. downatiars, into swimming, pools or be rum over by a truck said Miss Dressler. “I guess I reali: got a break in this picture.” These who have seen the come- dienne in her latest characterization are agreed that it is even more out- standing than her portrayal of the old hag in “Anna Christie,” or the Washington Square landlady in “Caught Short.” That her ability is not confined to drab rodjes is well demonstrated in the part she plays in “Let Us Be Gay.” in which she shows that she can wear beautiful gowns and put on the society alr with the best of them and be hilariously funny at the same time. The new Shearer vehicle is an all- ee adaptation of the well-known Rachel Crother’s stage play which ran on Broadway for almost a year S b with Francine Larrimore in the star- @ ring role. In the supporting cast with Miss Dressler are Hedda Hopper, Gilbert Bmery, Sally Ejlers, Tyrrell Davis and others. ‘The picture was directed by Robert Z.

The criticism. contends that hy the very nature of sound film re- cording, taking one seene over and over until all sense of continuity is lost, the players lose the “feel” of the , @ory, they do not get into the same mood that benefits stage actors play- ing through a continued set of inci- dents. It is enervating to have to rise re- peatedly to the same emotional pitch, with the same lines and inflections, for hours on end. In pictures, espe- ' elally when a player has all his action confined to a small, detached part of the tript, he can, and often does go through his role without even aving read the entire story, * Leoking at this player's sequence alone, this condition probably is not apparent, but LeRoy contends that beneath the “surface acting” is a stra- tum of expression born only of a feel- ing for the entire story. He says he can not change the practical method of filming pictures plecemeal, but he can instill in his cast the spirit that motivates the story by being certain they become acquainted with the pilot under the most favorable conditions. LeRoy n his “playreading” by a short talk in which he outlined the manner in which the story would be handled. “This is a gangster pic- ture,” he said, “and a bee ape’ pic- ture it's going to be right through six reels, I'd like you to feel that you are assuming characters that are really and honestly mean and miser- able personalities. This is not going to be dressed-up for hokum. om beginning to end you portray the vi- ciousness that the underworld breeds, and that folks should be the spirit béhind your lines.” If any one in the cast had illusions that he was to wear gloves and speak with a broad “a,” as other film gang- asters have been portrayed, by this time he knew otherwise. There are other advantages in Le- Roy's “play reading” that repay many times over the few hours invested. There probably never has been a play written that Khas been performed with every single word uttered exactly as the author wrote it. Dialogue that geems above reproach on paper is found to be slightly awkward when spoken. A certain player. will find that a sentence’s construction does . ; not lend itself to the best decla aloud, and there are other stum blocks by being acted out. During the two hours that Le had his cast together, a total of | changes were made; mostly, it is true, / things that would have been caught elsewhere, but a, goodly portion of “which have escaped detection until quite late. Right at the beginning of the “play- reading” LeRoy the clothes the 21 or participate, but al-|and Ralph Ince ‘of how # gangster should be clothed. in tiny black‘and white checks. Obvi- ously it was impossible to three feat ters to be +cos- tumed alike. Even the correction of this error made the entire “piayread- ing” worth while, for the time that might have been lost the following day would have been tenfold as ex- pensive as the two hours Involved in the preliminary reading. On the very first page of the script of “Little Caesar” is the line, spoken by Robinson, “This game ain't for guys that are soft?” Robinson thought the line wae overplayed, it should be changed to s simple “This ain't for softies.” LaRoy didn’t know about that. “Would Robinson kindly try both ways.” He did. The rest of the cast voted unanimously in favor of “This ain't for softies,” and the read- ing went on. Usually lines such as these do not come up for trial until the rushes in- the projection room, and by that time the company may have moved to another sequence. This is indeed the method to stamp out the hard and false-sounding phrases that are so often heard even in expertly written stories. Comment was invited from all, Bd- werd Francie Fafagoh, adapter of Burnett’s novel, offered various alter- ations of his own script; Tony Gaudio, head cameraman, proved that two shots involving close-ups came successively. which would not bring out the action required for the par- ticular scene. Louis Marlowe, who is only second assistant director, found Robinson saying “sewicide,” when a gahgster would say “sooicide.” Doug Pairbanks, jr, wanted to change his lines to read “I can’t quit now. Olga,” from “Oiga, I can’t quit now,” a seemingly minor correction but one which Fairbanks felt very positively would help him in his acting. Buster Collier and Glenda Parrell, the femi- nine lead, substituted various words in her lines. They both have a great deal of hysterical emotion to portray and even simple words may be par- ticularly difficult to pronounce clearly under high emotional tension. For all of this the cast was grate- ful. The old practice is ta give the cast scripts to read and from then on it is theirs te do or dte—but never. never to question why in blazes the author gave the character such diffi- cult lines. Here the players smoothed out the little bumps that threatened the smooth sailing of the story, just as ig done with plays in the theater. and the final result will undoubtedly refiect the wisdom of the plan. | SCREEN LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD | By. HUBBARD KEAVY. OLLYWOOD — Two comedians H who never let beards grow On their humor made such a hit fn their first picture that the title was clfanged to feature them. And they didn’t get funny over- dialogue for them : to say. - Back of the iam Olsen and John- & son humor in “O Sailor, Behave,” which started out as “Nancy From Naples,” is @ friendship test- ed by hard knocks and hard- er work, a 15+! 4 year study of Bees what people like [¢-.: to laugh at, made in the three-a- day all over the world. Chick Johnson walked into Ole Olsen's cafe in Chicago in 1915 to lay the piano. After three days wn llBhace wanted to go into vaude- Ville.

But Olsen and John- son never let their act grow cold, Their comedy is a rapid-fire con- lomeration of noise and music, armiess horseplay, wisecracks and good clean fun.

There are few enterprises in which motion picture people are interested that are not publicized as such. The Moreno schoo! is conducted without mention of his name in connection with it. Morene, childless himself, was prompted to start the school because of his love. for children.

A FEW WORDS ABOUT NEEDS HIT IMPOSES Emotional appeal, youth and time- liness of subject are the three ele- mente which have most to do with the making of a successful motion picture, according to B. P. Schulberg, general manager of West Coast pro- duction «at Paramount's Hollywood: studios and veteran of the film indus- try. “It ia obviously impossible to set down in detail the essentials of good box-office pictures,” Schulberg said. “If there were some exact formula, all pictures would be successful; there would be no failures. In general, the hit picture has some quality about it that stirs the audience's emotions deeply. It may be that kind of com- edy said to ‘leave the audience weak With laughter.” It may be pathos genuine and moving enough to induce tremendous sympathy and tears. It may be a suspense so terrific that it will make people grip their hands and sit on the edge of their chairs. Or it may be a deep and moving love. “At the same time, the successful pictures are the pictures of and by youth. The younger the star the greater his or her popularity. Clara Bow, Jack Oakie, Janet Gaynor, Alice White, Nancy Carroll, Gary Cooper, Richard Arien, Charles Rogers are among the most popular players on the screen today. They are youngsters in the eyes of the older generation. That is why they are favorites, “The third element for successful Pictures is timeliness. ‘Wings’ was one of the greatest box-office suc- cesses because it reached the acreen at that moment when the public was aviation-conscious. Lindbergh's flight to Paris had made it so. ‘The Big Parade’ was a great pfCture because it reached a public at the psychological moment when the drama rather than the horror of war was being felt. - “Recent prison disturbances have made the public aware of the possi- bilities for great drama within the walls of the penitentiary. Obviously it is good showmanship to present pictures touching on phases of prison life at this time. “Golf is a matter of great public interest at this time. One of our new pictures starring Nancy Carroll, ‘Fol- low Thru’, is built as a comedy around the game. Among other pic- tures now im the making in Holly- wood, the subjects which. are timely, are: ‘Manslaughter,’ which might be a story of recklessness driving from any newspaper of the day, and Ernest Lubitach’s new production, ‘Monte Carlo,’ which deals with the vagaries of a vacation spot always in the news.” In added proof that the motion- picture public likes stories of modern youth cone in modern manner, Schulberg points out that the so- called costume plays never have been tremendously successful, Historical pictures or pictures of a biographical nature have an appeal beyond their actual entertainment value, and should not be included in the “cos- tume” class. Talking pictures ‘have broadened the scope of the gcreen tremendously, and producers now are enabled to touch story subjects heretofore for- bidden them by reason of the fact that they lacked drama that could be pictured, being possessed only of drama to be spoken and heard. The film executive predicts that the com- ing season will bring a greater variety of screen entertainment from Holly- wood than ever before issued by the studios, ‘ MANY DEVICES MAKE IT COOL “They give a new thrill * ° that’s why they are always patron- ived.’” sums up the success of the more than 50 amusement devices that ate attracting patrons to Glen Echo Park these hot days and nights. When one zooms through the air in the eirplane swing, the ferris wheel, the derby racer, the coaster dip and kindred space eaters, where the breezes. are always blowing, it's foolish to think of the heat. The old mill, midway, carrousel and penny @r- cade are also diversions well worth visiting, as is every single thing at the park, for that matter, In the evening there is McWilliams and his jolly band from 8:30 until 11:30, except Sunday, in the ballroom, te provide music for dancing. All Washington Railway & Electric cars skirting the Potomac to Gien Echo or’ Cabin John assure a cool ride, and swift transportation is like- wise provided by the newly installed bus line of the Washington Coach Co., operating to and from Dupont Circle.

Helen Cohan, beautiful daughter of George M. Cohan, was unnoticed by producers in Hollywood until Win- field Sheehan, vice president and gen- eral manager of Fox Film Corpora- tion, saw her in a Hollywood stage production of “June Moon.” He in- vited her to the studio for a test and the next dey she had signed a contract and is assigned to the ro- mantic lead in Will Rogers’ “Light- nin’.” Tommy Clifford, 11-year-old Dublin youngster who was brought to Holly- wood to appear in John McCormack’s “Song O' My Heart,” shortly will be featured in "The Shepper-New- founder,” Stewart Edward White's story of a boy, a dog, a dub golfer and &® woman golf champion.

Webster adds that this meaning of) the word is of Old English and Scotch origin and can be traced to the Anglo- | Saxon “cracian,” which translates as “imitative.” Du Val has been going through his reference books in an effort to find the history of animal crackers, those | grotesque little cakes which delight | the heart of America’s children, and which inspired the title for the latest play of the Four Marx Brothers now being transferred to the screen at the Paramount studio. So far Du Val has failed to pierce the veil which enshroudg the history of the tidbits, but he has run to earth several pieces of information about the seven meanings of the sec- ond half of the phrase. The use of “cracker” to designate « small, dry cake is distinctly American. In England such confections are al- ways kniown as “biscuit.” The first use of the word in “Life of Bowles,” in which the latter remarks: “I've been sitting for hours among distinguished people, listening to ex- cellent @iscourse; but I had a cracker in my pocket which I wanted to eat, but didn't dare.” Cracker also designates the poor whites of Georgia's mountains and swamps. This term of opprobrium was applied by the aristocrats of the seaboard before the Revolutionary War, due to their belief that the mountaineers suhsisted solely on meal made of cracked corn. Then there is tte explosive cracker its | American sense is found in Merriam’s | which jangles nerves on the Fourth of July; the safe cracker, whose other alias is yegg; the oil cracker, who re- moves gasoline from crude petro- leum; and, lastly. cracker jack, whicn ranks with animal crackers In popu- larity amongst the youngest genera- tion, and is also a colloquialism for some one expert in a craft or profes- sion. As for animal crackers themselves, the peges of Encyclopedia Britannica do not deign to mention them, while Webster's Unabridged merely says: “A small sweetened cracker in the ‘shape of an animal.” Even the National Biscuit Oo.. which does a rushing business in the _Cus season, admits that its origin is | lost in the mists of history. It is suggested by that concern that P. T. Barnum, the great show- man, originated the idea for animal- shaped cakes as one of the innumer- able publicity stunts by which he popularized his circuses, MARK PLAYER IN REHEARSAL Screen folk have two sets of work- ing clothes.

Having the less complicated of either of the two major services, the navy committee hopes to work out a combination that will fit its require- ments and serve as a basis on which the others can predicate theirs. It is predicted by those in close touch with the board that the exist- ing rate of promotion and number of officers in each grade in the Navy, modified by the provisions of the navy line personnel bill, now pend- | ing in Congress, will form the basis of the board's recommendations, which must be submitted to Congress by November.

The line of demarcation be- tween a bid and a pass by the partner of an original bidder of two No Trumps is clear; to raise, his hand should count 6, or should contain a King and Queen (of the same or dif- ferent suits) or have an Ace and one other count. In this case North's hand counts only 4 (a Queen and two Jacks) and he should pass. So South would play two No Trumps at Con- tract, or one No Trump at Auction. West would have no difficulty in selecting his opening lead; his four- card Heart suit is so much stronger than his Clubs that he would lead it even if it were a minor and the weak four-carder were a major. The ap- proved lead from Ace-Jack-Ten and one other is the Jack; so there would be no question as to West's original lead of the Heart Jack. The hand was played in a Duplicate Contract match and at one table East made the champion boob play of the year by ducking—apparently assum- ing that West’s Jack had been led from the top of a sequence. The play was unsound and met a deserved fate. South, of course, won with the Queen and cashed five Clubs and four Dia- monds, making one more trick than was needed for game at No Trump. West's lead of the Jack nied the Queen and marked South with it, but it did not deny the Ace. As a mat- ter of fact, in this case it announced the Ace because the Wine and Eight were in dummy, and Jack is nob led from Jack-Ten and any card smaller than the Eight; so East's “finesse” was a gift pure and simple—particu- larly simple. At all the other tables East played the King on the first trick, and in most cases South played the Six. When this happened, East could mark the Queen solus remaining in the South hand (West would not have led from a suit of less than four cards and would not have'led the Jack had he held the Queen). As taking in four Hearts would not be enough to save the game, and as East (if he re- ‘ turned his Deuce of Hearts) could not obtain the lead on the fourth round of that suit to lead Spades up to North’s weakness, about one-half of thé East players decided to lead the Spade Jack to trick 2. The other half returned the Heart. When the Jack of Spades was led, if Declarer tried to win with South’s King, he ended up by losing four Spades and four Hearts and consequently was down three: it he did not recover the Jack with the King, he saved a trick and was cown two. At the tables at which East won the first trick and returned a Heart, East and West took in four Hearts, and then in s@me cases West led the Ace of Spades in order to cash that trick. If the game had been Auction this would have been a sound game- saving play; but with only two bids at Contract and game impossible in any event, some Wests kept the Ace- Queen of Spades together hoping to win with both, and led through the Queen-Jack of Diamonds.

- . : ~ ” — | Washington Post eal 4 = JUNIOR POST AND KNIGHTHOOD OF YOUTH — ee Se WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, AUGUST 10, 1930. HICH picture of George Washington really looked most like him?” is a question whith has been ask- ed for a hundred and fifty year?®: Now that the Nation has started two years in advance to make prep- aration for celebrating the two hundredth birthday anniversary of the founder of the Republic, the necessity has arisen for selecting one likeness which will be re- produced in hundreds of thousands of prints in booklets, pamphlets and posters as the official picture of the George Washingten Bi- centennial. . Thus the First American’s per- sOnal appearance as well as his character; heroism and statesman- ship will be brought before the world in that prolonged demon- stration which will last from Feb- ary 22, 1932, to the end of that calendar year. Though the secrets of photography were not known in Washington’s time and though he did not live in a country where art had attained a mature growth, yet it is estimated that there are today about two hundred and fifty portraits of Washington taken from life or adapted from those taken from life. Among these numerous pictures there is great diversity. Yet all have somethifig about them which make them dis- tinctively likenesses of Washing- ton as he was in middle age or in later life. According to Charles Henry Hart, authority on Washington portraits, the Father of his Coun- try sat for at least 21 artists of reputation. Other authorities de- clare the number of persons for whom he sat probably humbered thirty. Not only American artists endeavored to hand down to pos- terity a prototype of the American leader in both war and peace, but crayonists, paintérs and sculptors 6b ‘came from Denmark, Italy, Switz- erland, France and England to perpetuate the likeness of the man of history. Yet with all these pictures ‘made through a period of 26 years most. people visualize George Washington as the Amer- ican gentleman pictured on the - dollar bill or on the red or green postage stamps which have borne his engravings. These likenesses by Gilbert Stuart, the painter, and Houdon, the sculptor, are 80 dignified: and expressive of the elegance of Washington’s de- meanor and of his national im- portance that they have con- tinued to satisfy his admirers. However, since these pictures show George Washington as he was after he had won his fame, there is a growing opimion that his picture as a younger man should be made more familiar at least in the land of his birth and eminence... Those who attempt to find Washington’s best picture ‘not only study the portraits them- selves but inquire into the stand- ing and ability of each of the artists who made them and the circumstances under which they were produced.

By VICTORIA FABER STEVENSON The committee which will se- lect the picture for the bicenten- nial, composed of Charles Moore, chairman of the Fine Arts Com- Dr. Leicester B.-. Hol- land, chief of division of fine arts, Library of Congress; Dr. John C. Fitzpatrick, chief of the ‘manuscripts division, Library of Congress; Ezra Winter, Fine Arts Commission, New York; Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart, Fine Arts Commission, Cambridge; Col. Harrison H. Dodge, superintend- ent of Mount Vernon, and Car! Melcher, distinguished artist of Falmouth, Va., will find that the. first picture which was painted of the illustrious American was made in 1772 by Charles Willson Peale. It was that year that the sachem made the Indian prophecy concerning the young officer’s brilliant future. Peale’s por- trait made at Mount Vernon shows the colonel in his uniform of the Virginian army as a man of 40, when he was ‘a loyal sub- ject to the King of England. To- day it hangs in the memorial chapel of Washington and Lee University. ‘ Peale, who was eleven years younger than Washington, was born at Chestertown, Md. His cre- ative genius is said to have as- serted itself early in life, for though he was apprenticed in his youth to a saddler at Annapolis, Md., he brayched out later as a. coachmaker, clockmaker and-sil> versmith. Accounts of his life state that after seeing some pic- tures af a Mr. Frazier he deter- mined to be an artist and with that thought ‘soon afterward pro- cured some painting materials and an instruction book, “‘The Hand Maid of Art,” from Philadelphia. Later, when he went to Boston in his brother-in-law’s schooner, he visited Copley, the most fa- mous American artist at that time. It is evident that young Pedle learned much in an incidental way from the Boston artist and from the picture which Copley loaned him to study, for there is. much merit in his painting which is known today as Washington’s first portrait. Art critics who prefer Peale’s later pictures of Gen. Washing- ton, however, claim that the like- nesses which he made after his return to America from London in 1774, where he had been a pn- pil of West, excel in both por- traiture and workmanship. The fact that a Charles William Peale portrait of Washington made in 1777 was formerly ascribed to Copley speaks: well for the excel- lence of the painting, which is preferred by many. connoisseurs as the best picture of Washington in middle aga It shows him as mentally matured and of fine phy- sigue. The artist’s service to America at Philadelphia as captain of the volunteers kept him ‘In close touch with the general. He was with him in the battle of Trenton and Germantown. When _inot marching or fighting with his company, he was painting with such ardor that he left sevéral highly valuéd canvasses showing the American liberator as he ap- peared in the Revolutionary War. Mapy persons favor these pictures because they portray the gen- eral’s figure as athletic and his countenance as open and truth- ful, yet grave. Same of the epi- ~sedes* pictured by. »Peale, . were The best known and most widely accepted portrait of Wash- ington, painted from life by Gilbert Stuart about 1796. made at the suggestion of Wash- ington - himself, who ‘especially commended the painting which commemorates the victory.of Jan- ary .3, 1776, at Princeton, and ‘shows Hessian prisoners march- ing under guard in the back- ground. Those who searth for Washington’s best portraits are reminded that. some commenta- tors indorse Charles ' Willson Peale’s portraits as the best pro- duced in America after Copley’s departure in’ 1774 and before the return of. Gitbert Stuart in 1793. The Nation owes a debt of grat- itude to the engravers of the past who have preserved even lost portraits of the Father. of His Country , through copies which they made. .Inquirers as to one missing picture of Washington, made during the Revolutionary War, learn that its artist was Pierre Eugene du Simittere, of Switzerland, who chose Philadel- phia for his home in 1776. . That portrait of America’s commander in chief, made about 1778 or 1779, was one of a series of thir- teen portraits of illustrious Amer- icans, but as the likeness has survived only through engrav- ings, it is not definitely known whether the original was in cray- on or paint. The George Washington por- trait committee of the bicenten- nial will find several popular paintings of Pater Patriae by. Col. John Trumbull; the historical art- ist. That aide de camp to Wash- ington was affectionately known as Brother Jonathan, for a strong .triendship, grew up between these . » able. two men, associated during the most strenuous years of their lives. Those who are interested in Trumbull’s standing as an artist learn that he was 19 years old when the Revolutionary War be- gan in 1775. Having proved himself an infant prodigy by en- tering Harvard when he was only 15. years old, he had also con- . Vinced Copley before he was 17 that he had certain artistic - ge- nius. But for some reason Trum- bull was adviséd by the artist to devote his time to mathematics as- “a genteel accomplishment which might prove more profit- Nevertheless, Trumbull stuck to his art after his gradu- ation, working. at home, with homemade materials, until he en- tered the army; when he used much of his spare time in camp painting various pictures of the general. Washington is said to have been most enthusiastic over them because they depicted his- torical incidents and because they pictured him when he was in his prime. : Artists who examined the pastel of George Washington, drawn at Rocky Hill, mear Princeton, in 1783, give it llttle serious’ con- sideration as a likeness. William Dunlap, the talented 17-year-old American, for whom the sitting was given, had evidently made some impression on the American leader. Though Dunlap iater proved he could never settle down to the drudgery.of an artist, he jeft @ valuable. historical writing . Who Painted Washington Best? concerning the Republic’s earliest artists which supplies the only in- formation obtainable regarding some of those men. As one studies the great collec- tion of Washington portraits, ha becomes unusually interested in a picture by Joseph Wright, the etcher, because of the comment made on it by George Washingtou Parke Custis, Martha Washing- ton’s grandson and adopted son of the first American. The per- sistent Wright, son of Patience Wright, who became well knewn through her profiles in wax, is said to have stolen his first sketch of President Washington when he was in St. Paul’s Chapel, New York, and used it as the founda- tion for etchings. Custis compli- mented bis later work by declar- ing that it gave a most excellent likeness. He said: “Yes, it ig the general. It is the most true and faituful likeness. It gives a more correct and perfect expression of his countenance than any other I have seen. I believe I have seen all the portraits for which the general sat.’’ Custis expressed the opinion that Stuart, Peale and others had made Washing- ton’s forehead straight and mas- sive whereas the general’s receded in a line with his nose as de- lineated in Houdon’s statue. Despite the fact that Washing- ton was declared by all of his artists to be a bad sitter he evi- dently thought by the year 1785 that he had at last overcome his aversion to being an artist’s sub- ject. At that time when Robert Edge Pine asked the general to allow him to make his portrait he received the following consent: “I am so hackneyed to the touch of the painter’s pencil I am now al- together at their beck and sit like Patience on a monument while they are delineating the lines of my face. It is proof among others what habit and custom may effect. At first I was impatient of the re- quests and as restive under the operation as a colt is of the saddle. * * * Now no dray horse moves more readily to the thrill than I do to the painter’s chair.” Pine’s picture of Washington, painted at Mount Vernon in 1785, hangs with other paintings of early Americans in the National Museum of Independence Hall, Philadelphia, where critics con- sider it a good likeness. It is interesting to compare this picture with the bust of Washing- ton made by John Antoine Houdon, the same year. According to Trumbull, who was not only a close friend of the Father of American Liberty, but who knew him from the standpoint of an artist, Houdon’s sculpture © gives an exact reproduction of Wash- ington’s countenance as he was at the time the Frenchman made the bust. Certainly Houdon’s bust is a faithful delineation of Washing- ton’s features, for it was perfected from a mask made at Mount Ver- non during Houdon’s visit of two The portrait by Edward Sav- age, painted for the Philoso- phy Chamber of the Univer- sity at Cambridge, now in .» Memorial Hall, Hafvara. 4

2 \ weeks with Gen. and Mrs. Wash- Thomas Jefferson, who was in a t measure responsible for - Houdon’s commission to make the statue of the far-famed Virginian, wrote in his letter to Washington: “He (Houdon) comes for the pur- pose of lending his art to transmit you to posterity. He is without rivalship in it, being employed in all parts of Europe in whatever is capital.” In Washington’s cor- dial letter to Houdon he expressed his willingness to do everything in his power to aid the artist in his preset. The two weeks spent at ount Vernon were employed in making a model of Washington’s head and perfecting casts and tak- ing measurements of his figure to enable him to finish his work in Paris. Visitors to Mt. Vernon who have seen Houdon’s bust of Washing- ton and those who have seen his statute of Washington at the capi- tol in Richmond, may boast that they have seen masterpieces. Houdon’s acquaintance with the manners and dress of the master of Mt. Vernon aided him in what is said to be as perfect a resem- biance of his subject as could be made in marble. Jefferson was so pleased that Washington had chosen to wear his usual attire in posing for Houdon that he- wrote it was a pleasure to find that he (Washington) approved of the modern dress for statutes, especi- ally since that style was in favor with the leading artists of Lon- don. The term “usual attire” prob- ably signified the opposite of such classic Roman apparel. as that which frequently clothed impor- tamt personages in statuary of that day. James Peale, younger brother of Charles Willson Peale, is credited with having excelled Charles in miniature painting. Artists have praised the dignity and repose of the three or perhaps four por- traits which he made of Wash- ington. When Charles Willison Peale, his son Rembrandt Peale, and James Peale, all painted Washington at one time, the famous subject remarked that he was being Pealed from all sides. As Rembrandt Peale made thirty- nine copies of his father’s work. and seventy-nine copies of his own, his name has clung so closé- ly to Washington portraiture that for seme years his painting of Washington in Washington was considered to have been made from life. Autho- rities now classify this picture, painted after Washington's death. as a “eomposite portrait.” Feminine leaders today can be proud that at least one woman painted the Father of his Country from life, for Washington's diary of October 3,.1789, reads: ““Walk- ed in afternoon and sat about two o’cleck for Madame de Brehan to cemplete a miniature profile which she had begun from memory and which she had made exceedingly like the original.”’ The profile medallion in blue and white on copper made from the likeness drawn while the French minister de Brehan and his sister were visiting at Mt. Vernon was iater reproduced in prints for Wash- imgton’s friends at the General's request. The first President's ous habit of keeping a diary has furnished the statement that the portrait which John Ramage, Ir- ish gentleman, made of him the game year, was for Mrs. Washinge- tem. Though that picture, made by the principal miniature painter ef New York at that time, has — lest, it is perpetuated threugh engraving. Those who see copies of Wash- ington’s picture from life made by Christian Gulager, the Dane, just ome month later, at Ports- mouth, N. H., consider that the likeness is not much of a gift to pesterity. Judged by the stand- ard ef Washington's other por- traits, the Danish artist portrayed neither the features nor the spirit ef his subject. As the indorsement of a like- mess by one’s friends always car-- ries weight, one might..say...that. Edward Savage's portrait of George Washington at’Harvard is a geod one. It is claimed that compatriots e the general who personally acquainted with hie praised the picture as the best likeness ever made. Critics nowadays declare it looks be a good picture of Washington. However that may be, Savage was given several sittings for the pic- tere by the general who knew that. the portrait was being made for the University of by an artist of no for he reproduced M6 work by enstaving.

Billie Lee, the ser- vant of slavery days, is seen in the background of the picture ready to serve the family. When the talented Archibald - Robertson came to America from Scotland, in 1791, he expected to find a region half civilized. As he had studied under Benjamin West and Sir Joshua Reynolds in London, had been associated in his work with Henry. Raeburn and Walter Weir, and had won fame as a miniature painter, his coming to America was considered an important event in art circles of Great Britain. When the Ear! of Buchanan heard of it he en- gaged him for twe important er- rands in the new world. One was to take an elaborate silver-mounted box, made of the oak which had sheltered William Wallace after the battle of Fal- kirk, te George Washington, and -———— ——— ee ee ee ia - the er was to paint the great . pets Ze om his own fine art” collection in Scotland. Robertson lost but little time in carrying out the commission, for shortly after he landed in 1791 he visited Washington, to whom he presented the box, con- taining a letter of introduction, and obtained a sitting for a mini- ature on ivory. which was later enlarged on canvas. But some- how the artist, who was surprised at finding no savagery in Amer- iea, nor Jack of civilization, found the cultured and cordial Wash- ington so difficult to comprehend that the general entertained him several times in the effort to bring him out of himself. before he finally succeeded; John ‘Trum- bull declared that Robertson’s picture was the ‘best of all like- nesses painted of Washington in later life. As Robertson and Stuart are said to be .conspicu- ous as the only two artists who pictured the first American look- ing directly at the spectator, the — student scrutinizes Washington's portraits to see if the claim is true. | It is not probab?fé that those in quest of Washington's best por- trait will select Adoitph Ulric Wert- muller’s effort of 1794, which does not impress itself for either his- torical or artistic merit. Neither is William T. Williams” crayon portrait taken from tife the same year aftér persistent efforts on the ~ part of its painter to obtain a sit- ting likely to prove popular. That portrait cherished by the Masons shows their illustrious craftsman wearing the regalia presented to him by -Lafayette and hangs in Washington’s own lodge room in Alexandria, Va. Even though the picture may be true to life it rep- resents Washington as such an elderly. worn : as never to be popularly accepted. Another like- ness which has not as yet become a favorite is the miniature made from Hfe in 1793 by Walter Rob- ertson, who came to America with Gilbert Steuart. One of the best known and most liked representations of America’s first citizen is the profile by James Sharpless made in 1786. Wash- ington Irving and other men of _ note admired tt because it por- trays Washington in strong face with features which show an The last portr ton by Saint-Memin, for which sittings were completed in I agreement with the bust made by Houdon. As Sharpless traveled from place to place making like- nesses mostly in pastel and crayon in profile for $15.00 and full fate for $20.00, he depended upon his skill to. make higy pictures look like his subjects order to sell them.- Whether or not the last picture for which Washington sat in 1789 was ever a striking likeness or not can not be definitely decided. It was, however, considered, propor- tionately correct, for Charles B. Julienne Feret de St. Memin made it by using a physiognotrace.

His Athenaeum is one «> fhe best known pictures in the world, for ‘painted copies, engravings and colored prints have ~ reproduced it in thillions of fac- similes. - Though Stuart was born in America, -the son of a “snuff . grinder, he received the advantage of an art education in London under the best instructors of his day.. One evidence of his rapid success in England is that in two years the price of his portraits rose from the equivalent of $25.00 {Im United States money to $160.00. Hig income and talent gave him the advantage of mingling with distinguished. society and having as his patrons persons of high rank and the henor of painting the portraits of three kings. When he decided to retarn to his native land he declared his decision was due to his desire to paint the por- . trait of Washington. It was not, however, until two years after he had landed in New York that he obtained that desire in Philadel- - phia. When Stuart realized that Washington was not a good sitte he entertained him to keep him from being self-conscious and thereby obtained good portraits. In the two originals of ‘Wash- ington by the artist and the’ 26 copies which he made he left a noble personification of wisdom and serenity. It is said by some critics that no other artist of the first President ever approached Stuart in -.his~ coloring, lifelike features and finish.

™~ AC NE of the most significant incidents of these parilous days in which we live is the rebirth of the Old South in the mind .and imagination of the American people. It finds ex- pression in song and in story, in biography and photograph and in painting. Some of the many questions the writers and artists are trying to answer by their works are these: Who were those people who lived in the Old South? How did they live? Were they cul- tured? In a letter written to this writer on April 13, 1927, just a few days before he died, the late-Senator Albert J. Beveridge said: ‘‘To this day, I find that some of our most accomplished and broad-minded men in the North who were of- ficers in the Union Army still think poorly of the culture of most Southern men, such is the ‘intense prejudice which still lin- gers in the hearts rather than in the minds of the most tolerant.’’ Senator Beveridge need not have restricted his observation to the gallant veterans of the Union Army, for despite the many books of travels about the South, writ-. ten some by Northern men and women, and some by English men and women, which were available to all who read as they ran, the idea prevailed extensively among all classes of people in the North, and chiefly in New England, that the South was made up of a boor- ish people, of bullies and cut- throats. This idea, to be sure, was assiduously spread and cul- tivated by the abolition press, which was pretty good politics if pretty poor truth. And just now the country is beginning to learn how beautiful was the civilization of the Old South, and what an exquisite thing was destroyed by the war that one side calls “‘civil”’ and the other “secession.” One of the travel books that I read over and over again is the diary of Sir William Howard Rus- sell, the famous war correspond- ent of the London Times, who did the Crimea and the first year of our great war for his paper. Prof. William E. Dodd, of the Univer- sity of Chicago, one of the. most accomplished historians in our land, said, the other day, that Russell’s diary is the incompara- ble book on the South of 1860. We can look, through Russell's eyes, inside the portals of an old small town home in South Caro- lina, near the rice plantations, where, we’ were told, not by friettds, to be sure, so much mis- ery and degradation existed. ‘Leaving the veranda...’ says Russell, “we enter the mansion, and are reminded by its low- browed, old-fashioned rooms, of the country heuses yet to be found in parts of Ireland or on the Scottish border, with’ addi- tions, made by the luxury and love of foreign travel, of more than one generation of educated Southern planters. Paintings from Italy illustrate the walls, in juxta- position with interesting portraits of early colonial governors and their lovely womankind, limned with no uncertain hand, and full of the vigér of touch and nat- uralness of drapery, Copley has left us too few exem- plars; and one portrait of Ben- jamin West ¢laims for itself such honor as his own pencil can give. An excellent Mbrary—filled with collections of French and English classics, and with those ponder- ous editions of Voltaire, Rosseau, the ‘Memoiress pour Servir,’ books of travel and history which de- lighted our forefathers tn the last century, and many works of American and general history— affords ample occupation for a rainy day.”’ a One more illustration. From this planter’s house in old George- town, Russell journeyed on to an- other in the country. “It was 5 o’clock before we reached our planter’s house — White House Plantation,” says he. “‘My small luggage was carried into my room . by an old Negro in livery, who took great pains to-assure me of my perfect welcome, and who turned out to be a_most excellent valet.

Surely no boorish people had such a household and such a wine cellar, that such a meal could be served by slaves in the absence of the mistress of the household? But for patronage of the planters of the Seuth, the. artists .of first half of the nineteenth cen- tury in America would prob- ably have starved to death. North and. South Carolina are filled with monuments, in the shape of plantation homes, that speak as much for the genius of Latrobe as does the Capitol Building on Cap- itol Hill in. Washington, much of which he. also designed. These illustrations could be multiplied. to ‘an almost infinite length; and canbe taken from every one of the States that se- ceded and tried t@%set up their own government: But yesterday several ~“Meissonniers and one Biotto were found on Boulsians plantations by the antique dealers of Rue Royale in New Orleans and sold for a pittance.

Robert Lathan, then editor of the old News and Courier, chaper- oned them through some of the classic old Charleston homes: When they looked admiringly on the old paintings and draperies. and saw room after room filled with ‘walnut and mahogany and oak furniture, some of it two cen- turies old, brought from Europe and built by the best cabinet- makers of England and France, Fdna Ferber could not eontain herself. the’ “I do not wonder that South Carolina: seceded!”’ she exclaimed. “It is a pity she could not have preserved the civilization all this represents,” : And so the charm of it all strikes Owen Wister and Joseph Hergesheimer, of Philadelphia, and many another writer who hi- bernates winter after winter in Monday morning at Waynesboro, an atmospheric bit old Charleston, imbibing the spirit of an atmosphere also to be found in Mobile; in Savannah, in New Orleans, in Richmond and in some of the other older cities of the Old South. To be sure a renascence of the Old South was bound to come. ~ Just at the moment the revival is centering in Virginia. There —- —— ee of the ever Died never was such interest ia the antiquities of Virginia as now; there never were so many books being. written and printed about Virginia and Virginians. One reason for this is that, like Bel- gium, Virginia was the cockpit of the Secession War, though, te tell truth, as many great battles were fought in Tennessee (and those on Tennessee soil were the battles that actually won the war) as in the Old Dominion. The first printing press in America, I believe, was set up at Jamestown, in 1682, by one Buck- ner, but Lord Culpeper, the colo- nial governor, turned thumbs down on it, and no memortals of its existence have been preserved. Fifty years later, in 1730, Will- iam Parks set up a press in Will- iamsburg, which printed a news- paper and many.books~and pam- phiets. Examples of its work are probably found in a number of American libraries. Two centuries later two young Richmond printers and publishers, named Massie and Rollins, estab- lished in Richmond a house which they have named the Dale Press, in honor of Sir Thomas Dale, who developed the Colony of Virginia from 1611 to 1616. Dale founded New Bermuda and Henrico City on the James River, and at Hen- rico City planned to build the first university in America. No institution so completely fits into the renascence of the old South as this new press, for it is dedicating its labers and its genius to printing only fine books about Virginia. After a while it will enlarge its vision so as to take .in some of the other States of the Old South that are rich in memo- rials of the civilization that is dead and gone. A few months Dale Press issued its first book, “Old Virginia in Block Prints,” one of the most beautiful examples of the bookmaking art that ever came from an American or an English press. So beautiful is it that it was instantly chosen by the Ameri- can Institute of Graphie Arts as one of the “Fifty Books of the Year”—the first book from the South to get into that Brahmin list, and the only book wholly made in the South that has been so hon- ored. “Loyalists in East Florida,” published by the Florida State His- torical Society, is also in this year’s list, but that book was designed by Carl P. Rollins, of the Yale Uni- versity Press, and was printed in Vermont. _Every illustration in “Old Vir- ginia in Block Prints” was made on wood by Charles W. Smith, a young Richmond artist, who is thus handsomely introduced to the charmed circle of disciples of Tim- othy Cole. The letter text, only four pages, was written by an- other Virginian, John W. Rixey- Smith. The colonial motif has been largely followed in the illus- trations, but with deviations, which are entitled: “Wash Day in Jack- son Ward,” “Along the ‘Railroad Tracks” and “Negro House in the Allev.” On.the whole. it is a book of classic themes, and its nineteen reproductions of Virginia houses and scenes give a complete Ppic- ture of an era that is no more. The artist has caught and confined in line the spirit of th at p e dear, dead ago the thousand copies of this book were printed and each sold for $5. Within less than six months the price was advanced b7 rare book dealers to $30 a copy, and it is still rising. This tn it- self gives some distinction to the volume, and adds to the fame of the young artist who cut the blocks from which the book was printed. In his work the artist visited every scene that he has depicted and made his sketches on the ground, after elaborate studies of the scene and its environment. This carried him from Richmon@, the Capital of the Confederacy, to Alexandria, the childhood home of Robert E. Lee and George Washington’s home town: thence to Fredericksburg, where Wash- ington spent his boyhood and where James Monroe had his law office and where Washington’s mother is buried: and then on to Charlottesville, where Jefferson built the far-famed University of Virginia: and. back to Williams- burg, the illustrious Colonial capital of Virginia. which John D. Rockefeller. jr., is reconstruct- ing: from there to Jamestown, where the first English settle- ment was, made on this continent: and down the James River io Negroes and served by.

All my life I have ached to feel the bite of what Swinburne called “the teeth of the glad salt weather in the blown wet face of the sea.” I bad always juet missed that thrill. Shooting the Rapids of the St. Lawrence bored me; rid- ing through a peafog in Massa- chusetts Bay was irksome, The Norfolk boats, night or day, are just ferries, after all. Then I heard of deep-sea fish- ing, of boats*which prowl around sunken wrecks off New York's Barnegat, of unbelievable catches of fish that can’t wait to crawl up over the side and I hap- pened on Capt. Jake Martin and the Glory. The Glory, a etanch seagoing yacht, nests im harbor along the Sheepshead Bay water- front, a nickel’s ride from Times Square. It was fireworks night at Coney Island, and as I strolled past the pier all unaware of the proximity of adventure I heard the ery of “Fresh sea bass! Fresh sea bass! See the fireworke off Coney tonight!”’ Chick, the linotype operator, who has a way all his own with the fish, lured me aboard. The sea was glassy smooth. Parties of young folk lolled about the narrow decks. The Glory smelled sweet beneath the ripe full moon and I fell in love with her, Soon Capt. Jake drifted down to look his guests over. ‘Tomorrow night at 11 we start the fishing cruise,”” he told me. **What’l] I bring?’ I asked. “Old clothes,”’ said Capt.

Rain spattered against the can- vas. The wind rose a little. We talked on. He suggested turn- ing in. I agreed, but wanted a stroll about. I climbed down the narrow steps, :urched along the deck. About 50 were aboard, hon- est burghers, stolid citizens, keen- eyed for fish, customarily rooted to desks and stores and front porches, but with hearts which longed for the blue skies and heaving foamy waters. They sat over their coffee in the cabin, complaining about the Govern- ment’s raid on Jersey beer-run- ners and other grievances, while I listened drowsily, my head sink- ing forward on my hands... I did not dream about the night which followed, although it came to resemble a nightmare. We must have been passing the Ambrose Channel Lightship when we ran into a new storm. Rain teemed down, the wind blew. It was past 2 when I returned to the cabin and slumped down to a nap. A roar of thunder awakened me. I was stiff and sore. Again I dragged myself across the slippery deck. The boat rocked miserably. Old Glory heaved. To and fro, up, down, up, down, and suddenly I slid down the stairs, flung myself toward the railing ... seasick. - This was misery, a greenish, gloating misery. Dawn was peek- ing through rifts in the wide- spread cumulus clouds, and still I was timing the bobbing of our lit- tle craft with the jerking of my stomach. Now a new terror arose to smite me.

Far off was the coast line and Atlantic City. I lay flat on the bench and slept. “You look as if you just got over an appendicitis operation,” laughed a fat man as I sat up two hours later. “Why didn’t you get yourself a line and forget you was sick,” ad- vised another. *‘Better?” grinned the captain. “Get a line from Marty.”’’ The line was stuck in my fist. I unraveled it, hook and sinker found, and stuck some pieces of a clam on the hook. The crowd lined up, midship and stern. I chose the bow, where the crew fished. With careless toss I flung the sinker over. My hands, greasy from the clams, slipped along the line. I drew it in, flung it out again, hook, sinker, line and all. “‘Aw, that’s an awful thing to do,’’ cried a disgusted little blond boy nearby. i did not know then that he was Capt. Jake’s son. He cast for my line, but missed it. Sheepishly I sought out Marty. “I'll pay for that one,” I told him. “Tie it on the deck,” he ad- vised.

The others bolted down the remains of their lunches, or dropped into the cabin for q cup of coffee. I washed my mouth with ice water from the soft drink cache, and went upstairs. The owner of the overcoat I had borrowed was sit- ting on a bunk. “You look better now,” he commented. “Have a brandy from Hoboken?”’ I accepted. It was pleasant and smooth in Hoboken fashion. Now came a pleasant- faced old man .-. . Jim Beyer, formér bowling champion of Ho- boken. ©He’d. caught bass; only fair. up above. “Did you see the angler I hooked?” he asked, Yes, I had, in ome of my miserable moments, just a glimpse of it; a huge maw which gulps whole fishes. It had been tossed back. Eddie Bandick had put his hook into a shark a little after when I was asleep. The other man went on deck, “How old de you think I am?” asked Jim. ; “Forty-seven,” I said. “Sixty-four, got a son 41, and just shooed off a girl of 21.

Here were fluke, white on one side, gray and spotted green the other. A bit of jockeying, and they began to come in—big fellows. The cap- tain gave Leo his rod and line. Now watched and waited and soon drew in a nine-pounder which the captain had to harpoon over the side for him. Some one hooked a skate and cut it up for fresh bait.

By ISAAC GREGG C0 AAAS iste OE SAREE AE LET O LE TORO The arsenal found in the home of Charles (Pete) Cleaver, a mail bandit who lived near Chicago and believed in having all the tools of his trade. nation. Mysteries as perplexing and as apparently as unsolvable as those untangled by that famous character in fiction, Sherlock Holmes, have been cleared up by these sleuths of the service. Those who have written con- cerning the killings and robberies of Frank and Jesse James could hardly have solved a plot so con- fusing, a chase so thrilling, a cap- ture 80 brilliant as that which marked the beginning and end of the unrelenting hunt which re- sulted in the capture and convic- tien of the three DeAutremont Brothers—-Roy, Ray and Hugh. At noon on October 11, 1923, just as Southern Pacific Train No. 13 was emerging from tunnel 13 (note the unlucky number 13 how it figures in this case) in the The interior of a were mail | rie after bandits ‘hed svt of a heavy charge of dynamite to render accessibility to valuables | ! ae prompt and easy. 5 _) appt Siskiyou Mountains of Oregon, it was stopped by bandits who held up the engineer and firemen and dynamited the mail car. The rail- way postal clerk was killed in the explosion and his body burned to an almost unrecognizable pulp. The bandits shot down and killed the fireman, engineer and brake- man in cold blood in order to re- move the possibility of an eye- witness to the crime. But the murderers obtained no loot. They had bungled their job. Too much dynamite had been used when they blew up the mail car, . containing much valuable mail matter and it was destroyed at the same time that the mail clerk re- fused to leave the car despite the warning of the bandits. He died in the discharge of his duty. There was too much smoke and wreck- age in the dynamited car for the murderers to obtain arm entrance and fearing detection they made off into the Siskiyou Mountains, having gained absolutely nothing as a reward for their dastardly crime. Postoffice. inspectors were on the scene in less than half an hour. After an extended inves- tigation on their part, circumstan- tial evidence was obtained to show that the crime was ¢com- mitted by Ray and Roy DeAu- tremont, twin brothers, each 21 years of age, and Hugh, their 19- year-old brother. But the bandits had fled from the scene of their crime and could not be loeated. The world was before them .in which to make their, get-amay. : It ‘appeared to endeal w h the lication of their photographs. For almost four years “‘Want- ed’’ circulars, containing the pho- tographs of the three. brothers, with a very. detailed .description of each, were broadcast through- out every part of the United States and foreign countries. More than 2,500,000 circulars, telling of the crime with which the brothers DeAutremont were charged, were thus distributed. Rewards totaling $15,900 were offered for the capture of the ban- dits, dead or alive. In February, 1927, nearly four years after the Southern Pacific mail coach was dynamited and the crew of the train shot down like dogs, Postoffice Inspector Charles Riddiford, stationed Spokane, Wash., and béeen on the trall of the DeAu- tremont brothers ever since they pulled their bungling job, ceived’ a cablegram that a man answering the description of - the inspectors dt’ tlie that the), c; Dawe. only way ‘the! § ile ould | b¢| | Siskiyoa: Mogntains.’ ped er ean here gad ed i ut i. Litt rt Hugh, the youngest of the De- Autremonts, was serving in the United States Army in the Phil- ippines. Within a few hours aft- erward a sergeant in an infantry company, stationed near Manila, stepped before a private, stripped him of his arms and sent him to the guardhouse at the point of eight bayonets. The long hunt for Hugh DeAutremont had been successful. It turned out that he had en- listed in the Army in Chicago soon after the Siskiyou holdup taking the name of James Price. When the description of him furn- ished by the Postoffice Depart- ment was being broadcast through- out the world he had bleached his hair and eyebrows with peroxide in order to change his personal appearance and in the hope of evading capture. But even after his arrest, he refused to admit any connection with the atrocious crime and claimed to know abso- lutely nothing’ about the where- abouts of his twin brothers. The twin brothers, Ray and Roy were still free. Renewed efforts were being made by postal inspec- tors to bring about their capture. Maritime officials.«were rotified in every seaport town to be on the lookout for them jm the event —_ attempted to leave the coun- ry. ited On June 9, 1927, the worldwide search for the two brothers of Hugh DeAutremont was rewarded by their capture at Steubenville, Ohio, nearly four years after mak- ing their get-away following the holdup and, dynamiting of the Southern Pacific mail coach in the tig er ae or -homa and, Texas. 7 i - - Ag fom _ - a WB rc Lage ties 5 x, ———— ___ | were working in a steel mill in the Ohio city when apprehended. The description of the two men furnished by the Postoffice De- partment was responsible for in- formation leading to their arrest. Just before being removed to Oregon to stand trial, Ray admit- ted to postal inspectors having worked in Detroit for three months. The brothers then went ‘to Hanging Rock, Ohio, which, ac- cording to Ray, was a community in which there were a number of moonshiners. They sought this place, Ray explained, because they would not be questioned concerning their business or asked from whence- they came. While in Hanging Rock, Ray married Hazel Sprouse, in order to protect Roy and him- self, he said. There was talk in the community as to who the boys were who were living alone and Ray figured that by marrying Hazel he could point to her as having relatives and kin in Hange- ing Rock and thus ward off fur- ther suspicion. Ray admitted te inspectors that it was his intention to drop Hazel when the occasion arose. Both had hoped to make their get-away in about two months. . In order to avoid detection Ray declared he kept his hair and eye- brows light by using peroxide and shaved deep into the skin each day to prevent his whiskers from showing a different color from.his hair and eyebrows. The brothers kept all their currency in their home so as to be ready for an immediate move. But they felt secure and jour- neyed to Steubenville where they were taken into custody. Perhaps the greatest man hunt in the history of the postal service thus ended. The three brothers were taken to Oregon, were tried, convicted and are now serving life sentences in the State peniten- tiary at Salem. One June 12, 1924, as the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul fast mail train No. 57, containing large shipments of money and se- curities for the northwest, slowell . down near Rondout, Ill., two armed bandits confronted the engineer and compelled him to stop at a lonely crossroads, un- couple his engine and go down the tracks. As the train stopped, ban- dits rushed to the mail car from both sides, shooting. The mall clerks barricaded the doors, but the bandits hurled tear gas bombs into the car, compelling the clerks to open the doors to prevent their suffocation. Climbing into the car the robbers apparently knew ex- actly what they wanted. They pointed out the registered mail sacks and forced the clerks to toss them outside. On obtaining the sacks contain- ing the valuable mail, the bandits escaped in automobiles which were waiting at the crossroads. During the shooting one of the bandits was wounded. The next day postal inspectors were informed that there was a wounded man at the home of Wal- ter McComb under the name of James H. Wayne. McComb’s house was surrounded and Wayne was arrested. He turned out to be Joe Newton. one of the mall bandits, and later made a full confession to the Federal officials. Newton named James Murray, a local poli- ticlan, of Chicago: William J.

Myers W doffed the olive-drab uni- form of the Regular Army Yor the blue-and-gold as superin- tendent of police of New Orleans he brought with him into his new job ideas and convictions built through 30-odd years as a fight- ing man. He knew just what he wanted his policemen to be—and he set out to achieve that perfec- tion as quickly and as effectively as possible. Clean-shaven cheeks and _ well- shined shoes, naturally. Spotless uniforms and snowy collars. White gloves for the traffic men. Muili- tary snap and punctilio in bearing and address. All that—and more! For Col.:Myers was determined that the fat policeman—as well as the underweight—was in the dis- card. No more fat policemen. No more bay windows. No more puff- ing patrolmen. “A man’s got to be fit to fight— and a policeman is a _ fighting man.” That was the way Col. summed it up. “No man who’s carrying a sur- plus of fat can be in good condi- tion,” he continued, “and no man underweight can be effective in his job.” And order: “Get right off the force!” And that’s why every precinct station in New Orleans has been transformed into something re- sembling a cross between a prize fighter’s camp and the gymnasium of a Grade A college. Tumbling roats, horizontal and vertical bars, chest Weights, Indian clubs, dumb- bells, vibrators, punching bags. The men are using them—and how! For the new superinténdent, grizzled and hard-bitten fighting man that he is, meant just what he said... He issued a table of weights for the men and told them they had to meet the require- ments or quit. Here's the table: Myers then Col.

Hu B. Myers 8 * . A visit: te -the: precinct: stations’ is something to remember. ~The spectacle of a. hefty sergeant, garbed in shorts and a determined — expression, . rolling on the bare floor or climbing over the bars is. something that can never be for- gotten. And they’re doing it—for on it depend their jobs. The’ superintendent’s order’ is not meant to be e hardship on any man but to bring.the department nearer to the physical standard he came’ to know and admire in the Army. “T have no patience with the nian who allows himself to get hog fat through overeating and failure to exercise,” Col. Myers’ said, “and such’ men ean net bé good in their work of: battling crime... No man. overweight has the. keen “er of just right, Ina physical emergency the heavy- weight can not hold up his end of the fight. And, by the same token, the man who is underweight can not turn in the physical strength when it is most needed.” _ Strange to say, the men are lik- ing the new regime. True, in the precinct stations the conversation has been shifted from baseball scores to calories and from horse racing to vitarnins, but the men are finding that the improvement in their physical condition—and in their mental state—is more than offsetting the trouble and self-sacrifice. The veterans of the force now talk of roughage and proteins in- stead of Babe Ruth’s batting aw erage. Also it’s pretty nice for the women folks. The wife of one veteran precinct captain put it this way: “They laughed at us when we were reducing and told us our diet was the bunk; but, believe me, they're finding that it’s just about the right thing after all. My husband insisted on rare steaks and French fried potatoes in. the days when I was living on a slice of pineapple and a cup of weak tea, but. now he’s insisting that I keep meat off the table— says it tempts him—and his breakfast is three prunes and a half-cupful of coffee.” Most of the men are settled down to a general diet of vege- tables and are giving 30 minutes morning and afternoon to exer- cise. Many of them haye electric vibrators in their homes and are using them in addition to the gymnasium set-up in the stations. . Some of them are using the ma- chines seoffed at when their wives were using them. A few of the men who go on duty ip the after- noon are spending their forenoons on the municipal tennis courts and losing a pound or so a day that way. One corporal is doing three hours each morning on his broth- er’s construction job. < ‘‘Wheeling barrowloads of sand is one fine way of trimming off fat,”’ he smiles. Yes, it’s a great life in-the New Orleans Police Department these days. “But. we'll have a physically perfect personnel,” says Col. Myers, “if the boys stick to their exercise and their diet." ,And’as.an afterthought: _, “It: the n't stick to it--well, fi's' edie {6 be just'too bad” (Copyright, 1930.) eds ge ' ne an ee ee wy - =, ‘en. —_—_ in

Up and down the world they charge, twelve American women, promoting the trade of the United States in as many foreign cities. Men to the right of them, men to the left, and competition in front, but they march: steadily onward until the masculine contingent wonders where it is going to end. Back in the mauve decade, you _pee, the great galaxy of masculin- ity had things all its own way; chose its profession with sweet serenity, calm in the smug assur- ance that plenty of jobs awaited its membership around any old corner. But now, in opposition to the Bard of Avon, there’s much ado about something. Remind any old-time official In any one of the Government de- partments that an even dozen women are representing abroad the foreign commerce service and they will shake their heads, won- der whether you’re mistaken and if it isn’t a baker’s dozen you're talking about and sigh for the good old days when a chocolate cake in the oven. was the piece de resistance of the morning regime for women. Alack-a-day and what are we-coming to? For year by year they are marching onward, women of the service, until their smart figures in swanky little gowns, their trim feet in imported American shoes seamper down the boulevards and into offices of the foreign service from Oslo to Mexico City, from Buenos Aires to West China. Ordering their cafe au lait, hard rolls and marmalade, dashing for the nearest tram, swinging into dark offices for the day’s work and racing back to homey studios, these American women appear merely to have transplanted their activi- ties across the Atlantic or Pacific and to have created their own for- eign atmosphere and a bit of a corner of Greenwich Village in the heart of the Orient or the murmuring avenues of Havana. But the truth is—they haven’t. They gre becoming continentals themselves. They know their Knoedler’s Galleries in. London, their Cafe de la Mediterranean in Nice, the Sweep of the Bund in Shanghai. They’re on their toes, these bright young women, and for nearly a dozen years they’ve been on the top of the world and enjoying it immensely, " It began in 1920. In October of that year the lit- tle company of feminine regulars in the foreign service of the De- partment of Commerce began first maneuvers. It was the Secretary of Commerce who sounded the bugle call. And strangely enough, a member of the elastic and far- reaching Smith clan answered it. Viola Smith heard -the call, donned the fighting spirit of her fathers, left ‘familar activities and ‘sailed’ ‘away ‘to Shanghai, ‘and there she fs’ today, eatrying on, while the contingent. of women trade commissioners and clerks. continue. to bombard sweeping avenues of South:America or the sleepy byways of sunny Spain.

She knows the peak of buying power in a score of cities, some of them looking out on the yel- low waters of the China Sea, some’ of them far inland. Whether traveling by native launch, junks; sedan chairs or rickshaws, whether by rail or motor, Miss Smith “gets there” somthow to promote trade and make reports on conditions in cen- ters offering ‘trade possibiiities. She also investigated motion pic- ture theaters while in West China and found thatieven ih the remote cities {he lare‘éf the sdreen’ brings thei chattering: ; hain dir 6 dis ‘to strange, choked theaters of the East. “Pictures of mystery,” she writes, “and dramatic thrillers savoring of the supernatural ap- peal to these little yellow men and women.

Eliza- beth Humes, in Rome, for instance, turns to the Borghese Gardens in lieu of a stroll on the Potomac; Gudrun Carlson in numberiess trips through Norway, slips with the setting sun down into the fjords of the North, reviewing her Ibsen while she hunts up trade be« tween acts and promotes economic - gcod will between Norway and America. Miss Carlson was appointed trade commissioner at Osle in January, 1929. Before entering the service she had made exten- sive studies in foodstuffs as head of the home economics departments in several colleges over a period of five years. She was part timd instructor at Columbia University for six years and director of thé department of home economics at the Institute of American Meat Packers at Chicago. — During the World War plenty of doughboys scrambled into mud- stained huts to grab food planned and worked -eut on schedule by trained dietitians. Miss Carlson was one of the army of dietitians enrolled with the American Red Cross. She knows how to write and many of her articles on home economic subjects have appeared in various magazines. Up and down Norway she travels, into the midnight sun and to little hamlets high in the moun- tains where the women of Norway work at rare embroideries. She has done much to interest agents and Norwegian firms in the pur- chase of American goods. She is a connoisseur of lovely needle- work and all sorts of textiles and knows what to do when the elec- tric lights fail or the magneto does something else and what kind of American electrical equip- ment might be sold at Bergen or Hermansverk. Her knowledge of leather goes far beyond the par- ticular quality used in the uphol- stery of her automobile, and leather dealers in the United States find her intimate knowledge of leather imports into Norway 2 source of material aid.

Buxbaum Third Award. Loulse Heninger, of 1017 Maryland avenue northeast, a pupil at the Eastern High School, who has been a contributor to The Junior Post for several years, won the first prize in the Shield of Honor drawing contest which closed on August 1. The second prize was won. by Frances Marshall, of 2000 H street northwest, a pupil of the Western High School, whose work has fre- quently appeared in The Junior Post. A boy, M. Buxbaum, a new junior artist, whose drawings are attracting a great deal of attention in The Junior Post, was the winner of the third prize. More than 30 contestants entered drawings for the prizes. The judges had a great deal of difficulty in se- lecting the winners. The Junior Post editor and the judges wish to thank all the young artists who entered into the contest. It showed how well the Knighthood of Youth idea is taking in Washington even among children who are past the age when one may be a member of that organization. The shield submitted by ‘Louise Heninger appears on this page today. It is very simple but effective in de- sign. It teaches the lesson that knighthood must be guarded by the shining swords of character and good habits, while good deeds to others make the helmet which keeps the young knight safe from the attacks of those who would lead him into evil. The drawing itself shows a real grasp of the art of composition, it is well balanced and well executed. Con- gratulations, Louise, and may this be but the beginning of first prizes which you will win through this talent of yours throughout your life- time. Frances Marshall’s design also was a shield, of course. It has a splendid- ly drawn head of a knight in the in- ner shield form, and on the different sections of the shield are the words, “Honesty, Truth, Faith and Courage,” as a good start for the knight who owns that shield. The third prize drawing shows a knight on horseback with his lance in his hand, ready to do battle for the right. The following junior artists re- ceived honorable mention for the shields they sent into the contest. Gold pins will be sent to them by The Junior Post. Josephine LaRue, age 16, Riverside, Va.; M. N. Spinks, Kensington, Md.; Mildred Miller, Glen Burnie High School, Fort George H. Meade, Md.; Joan Barbee, age 14, Lanham, Md. As soon as school opens once more and the Knighthood of Youth circles become active, another shield con- test will be held in which actual shields made by the circles will be awarded prizes. Now that vacation will last only about another month our KEnight- hood members are showing more in- terest in this Nation-wide club for boys and girls. During the first days of vacation it was impossible to make them think of anything but play, so glad were they to be freed of their school duties. Do not forget the quest of The Washington Post Knighthood of Youth. It is to double its member- ehip by October 1. There are more than 3,000 members in the Knight- hood now and we want to make this membership at least 6,000 by October 1. This can be done only through the help of boys and girls who are already members. Cut out the re- cruiter’s pledge on today’s Knight- heod pages and get a friend to join today. If each present page and esquire of the Knighthood of Youth finds another member for the Knighthood, ’ >. cad 7 a ’ i our quest will be finished in time, for a report to be made on October 1. Think of what fun you haverhad’, in the Knighthood of Youth. Will you not pass on this good time to eome chum of yours in this easy way? The Junior Post Editor has a fine box of new esquire pins ready to be given to the pages of the Knight- hged who are ready to advance to the rank of esquire. We know that many more children must have filled their reminder cards in the rank of page. Please bring them in to The Junior Post Editor and get your ‘esquire pin and your new reminder card.

When did you stop being a little girl and when did you stop writing poems about fairies?’ “I am as tall as you are,” answered Lenore indignantly, “and besides father said you have no right to read my poems.” “Hush—hush,” said their father gaily.” Remember you are the hosts. Jack and Lenore—invite your friends in and Madam, will you and Mrs. Biown and the rest of you come this way?” and Lenore’s father swung open the door and waved his guests inside with a low gallant bow. “Wel- come to Glad Lands!” he said. Soon the members of the George Washington Circle of the Knighthood of Youth were clad in their bathing suits ready to be escorted by Lenore and Jack for a swim in the great swimming pool—the finest private one in Virginia. “Where is the pool?” asked Nancy, “I don’t see any.” “Wait and see,” said Jack as he led the way through a boxwood-hedged path to a garden hidden in a grove of trees with a huge shining inviting pool filled with water from the moun- tain springs. “I just think Jack and Lenore are prince and princess and their father is a king,” said little Lillian. “They must be, for they live in palaces and have all kinds of things.” , “They are indeed fortunate,” agreed Mrs. Brown. “You are a little quéen,” said Len= ore’s father as he smiled down on little Lillian. “As for Lenore Jack being prince and- prineess caube they havé ‘this lovely place ito clive. in the summer, nobody, n r woman ‘or ¢hiljd is royal or noble unless they are royal in their charac- ters and noble in their dealings with other people.” “No wonder the child thinks that,” asserted the Valiant Lady, “the most royal wish could not conjure up a pool more crystal clear. It almost seems too, beautiful in which to swim.” “Try it and see,” suggested Mr. Lane. Soon all his guests were en- joying the coolness of the water. “How wonderfully you swim,” said Mr. Lane as he paused with the Valiant Lady near a huge urn of flow- ers at the corner of the pool (To be continued.)

It was cool up in the air, and whenever it got hot we just flew a little higher until we reached cool weather again. This was even true when we were fiying over Texas. As we camé near El Paso, Tex., there was a strange silence. “No one is talking,” said the pilot.

Indians Discerned Great Knighthood In Roger Williams , Rhode Island’s Founder Was Valiant Fighter for Rights of Man. A great knight of American history is Roger Williams, who carried on & crusade for the rights of man. He went on this quest into the Indian villages and the Indians knew him as @ great knight. Although they did not like many Europeans who came to their shores they gave him their friendship and respect. Roger Williams was a young min- ister who came to this country with the Puritans on a great quest for religious liberty. Roger Williams went even further than the Puritans did in this matter. .He thought that since they had come to this country in order to have their own way in religion, they should be willing to give the same right to others. He was for freedom of action of every person to worship their God in the way they thought it was best to worship him and to let each person have liberty.

Are you brave? Do you stand your ground when danger comes near or do you run away like a coward? That is a very important question for ai member of the Knighthood of Youth. For the knights of old, on hose lives and deeds this national lub for boys-and girls is founded, were ever brave. If they had not been brave and fearless they would not have won their quests and writ- ten their names high on the ranks of knighthood. . men and women who built country were brave. It took cour- age to face the unknown dangers of the forests where the red man wait- ed, ready to kill the palefaces. When the first settlers in America built their log cabins in lonely places they not only had to face the dangers of the Indians but of the wild beasts of the forest as well. little girls learned to be brave at an early age in those days. Today the dangers are of a -differ- ent. kind but they are just as real. Wheh you read that question on your reminder card: “Have I been brave to- day?” I hope that many of you will be able to put a fine big “X” after it each hight. ‘One of the ways to be brave nowa- days is to dare to do the right thing even when the other boys and girls laugh at you whén you are doing it. It takes bravery to tell the truth, to stand up for a smaller boy or girl against a bully, to say “no” when the other children are begging you to take a chance and do something which a voice inside of you is telling you it is wrong to do. If after that you do it because you can not bear to have the others laughing at you, you are a coward and have no right to call yourself a member of the Knighthood of Youth. Are you brave enough to refuse to eat things which you know are harm- ful and will make you ill? Are you brave in the dark? Some boys and girls have the foolish idea -that they are afraid to be in the dark alone. That is very foolish and a page or an esquire in the Knighthood of Youth should be ashamed to be such a coward. Read the history of brave boys and girls and you will learn that they were ‘without fear or if they had fear they conquered. it by making up their minds that they would be brave.

HERE is a thrush!” How much easier it is to use the word thrush alone than to put some word before it that tells what kind of a thrush we see. We will learn later to say wood thrush and hermit thrush, but it will be some time before we Can say oOlive-backed, gray-cheeked, Wilson’s or Alice's. Then there are water thrushes and golden-crowned thrushes. These last two Kinds we can cross off of our list here for they are warblers and not thrushes, jusb called so because they have brown backs and Nght breasts more or less streaked**with brown, making them look very much like thrushes. The brown !thrush, which we had better All brown thrasher, is not a true thrish eithe?. The gojden-crowned, thrush is the oven-bird, so called trbm its covered nest. It calls “Teacher, teacher!” in such a way that you will wonder when you hear it if it has some puz- gling questions about the out-of- &% doors that it would like to have an-. swered. as well as we all have when we bégin to really look about us. It calls the word a number of times, getting louder and louder. The Wilson’s thrush is more com- monly called veery in the place where it is at home. Alice’s thrush is just another name for the gray-cheeked thrush. The olive-backed and gray- cheeked thrushes are so much alike that it is almost impossible to tell /which is which when you see them t here All thrushes are among our best singers becfuse their voices are so very sweet. The hermit thrush is thought by some to be the best, and the wood thrush to come next. We know. the hermit thrush when because it is the only one its tail a brighter brown color than the rest of ite back, The wood thrush is with us all sum- mer, 50 we call it a summer visitant or resident, whichever name we like best. It is really a resident because it builds a nest and is at home with us all summer. It is larger than the others. Its back is a bright cinnamon brown, brighter on the head and gradually changing to olive brown on the wings and tail. Below, it is white and thickly marked with rather large round and heart-shaped dark spots that look almost black. Its throat is just white without spots, but the spots are to be found even on the sides and under the wings. |... All thrushes like woodsy, places, best but come to our yards and any places where there are bushes and vine and small trees. . All of these thrushes are between sparrow and robin size. The wood thrush is about robin size and when you know that the robin belongs to the thrush family you will not won- der that the two birds act alike in many ways. Even their -nests are alike. The wood thrush builds on the branches of trees, choosing a fork where it cam find a safe place. Its pest has a mud lining with fine WINNERS.

Discovers a Stor Of Little Monkey Frontier Girl of Virginia With Indian Maiden Is Another. “Why, just look at that little monkey gazing in a mirror,” the members of the Enighthood of Youth and Junior Post Writers’ clubs stood and laughed to see a monkey dressed sO grandly like a little man, stand- ing before a mirror admiring himself. “He is vain, isn’t he children?” the Story Book Lady exclaimed, “but you know his life is very interesting. Here it is in this nice little orange book in big black letters, ‘The Life Story of a Little Monkey,’ by Ferdi- 17 Ossendowski (E. P. Dutton & “Chimpanzee Kate, why the mon- key is a girl,” said the Story Book Lady. “That is why she is vain. But she has lovely clothes. Kurt Wiese has drawn them wonderfully and see all the other illustrations. I can just hardly wait to read all about the adventures of Chimpanzee Kate. I know I will enjoy reading it, al- though, of course, I am more than Who wants to read this “We all do!” charused the Knights and Junior Post Writers. “Oh, oh, look down this street, dear Story Book Lady. I wish 1 was one of those girls, they are having such a good time,” said the smallest knight as she pointed to two girls in atanoe, one an auburn-haired girl with laughing blue eyes and the other, an Indian girl, with a feather in her hair. “So do we all,” cried the Story Book Lady, hastening to read the cover of the book. “A Frontier Girl of Vir- ginia,” by Alice Turner Curtis (The Penn Publishing Co., Philadelphia.) “The blue-eyed girl is Elinor Drum- mond, children,” the Story Book Lady explained, “and she lived long and long ago when Virginia was first settled by the English.” “I guess Elinor did not have many girls with whom to play and anyway this Indian girl looks as if she would be a splendid playmate. Well, well, here it is. The English were afraid of the Indians, but Elinor and her little friend understood each other and were fast friends. The Indian girl was the daughter of a chief and she saved the lives of Elinor’s people. This book will be just what we want to read. It is full of the historical background of Virginia. So many of you come from Virginia and even those of us who live in the District of twigs, rootlets and weedstalks, closely woven, on the »sutside and the plaster cup is lined with fine rootlets. The robin uses more fine grass. The eggs are so much alike that it is some- times hard to tell which belong to the thrush and which to the robin. They are lighter and bluer than a cat- bird’s eggs but very much like the robin’s. When excited and alarmed, the wood thrush will twitch its tail, call “Quick, quick!” or “Pit, pit!” but it It may even sit down on a branch and lpok at you to see what you are going to do. If it were encouraged a little it would become as tame as_the robin and as plentiful, too, about our homes. What joy that would mean to all, not alone to boys and girls, if we could have this sweet singer, that seems always to feel good and happy, where we could hear it all the sum- mer long. Mr. Audubon, our greatest bird man, said that “toward evening when most of the 'o After you once know the song of the wood thrush you will wait for it in the spring as people wait for the great singer of a concert. You will not feel just satisfied until it comes.

Some one has said that it says “Come to me.” Its song begins with “No-lee-a-e-0-lu,” which is loud and clear, and at the end are some notes which are quite low and lost if we are not near the singer. The last notes are not always the same. No as well as in the } fruit that they eat is berries LAL. TA wil UU Natl PU ——s Columbia are eager to know all about our near neighbor, Virginia.” “Is it time for dinner?” the smallest girl knight , a8 she saw a market on one of. th ts. “I hope so,” said the smallest boy knight, “I am }ungry.” “Well, we will get something to eat later,” promised the Story Book Lady, “but first we must see what this book has to say about markets. Let me see “The Story of Markets,” by Ruth Or- ton Camp (Harper & Brothers, New York). See the pretty cover and the drawings through the book, 39 of them showing us markets of today and of history in this country and in other lands. Did you think markets could be so interesting? We will cer- tainly Know a lot when we get through with this book.” “Pirates,” shouted the children as they rounded a corner into another street. “Dear Story Book Lady, tell us about this book; we know it is won- derful for just.see that pirate on the cover!” “And the pretty little girl with long golden braids,” shrilled the smallest girl knight. “W it until I get my story-telling glasses on,” said the Story Book Lady. “Oh, yes, here they are.

New York). “This is a story of old New York and that little girl is a Dutch Colonial, that is, she lived in the Dutch Co- lonial period in New York. We are certainly glad Lyle Justis has drawn and colored so many pretty pictures of the little girl on the cover page and her friend. They came in for more than their share of adventure and knew a lot cf pirates who, after all, according to this book, were not so very bad.” “Bow, wow, wow!” barked a shaggy little dog, “come and find out about me. I am Grayfriers Bobby.” “Oh, yes, said the Story Book Lady, “he evidently fs Here is all about him tm ‘Greyfriars Bobby,’ by Elinor Atkinson, and Marguerite Kirmse has drawn over sixty pictures of him, Bobby is a little country dog and you can all see ow tiny he is and how shaggy, and he is a Skye terrier and that is his master over there in the corner of cne of the pages, Auld Jock, a farm laborer. “This little dog is loved in the dis- trict in which he came to live and so anxious were the poor people who lived in the tenements to see him frolic about that they kept their win- dows washed.” “Oh, let us find ov* about that boy and girl canoeing. That is, I think, they have oars Or paddies,” said Johnny, who liked cport of any kind. “Well, any way, they are going on the water,” said the Story Book Lady, “for the name cof this book is ‘The Commodore,” by Chrales Geoffrey Muller (Harper & Bros., New York). “Yes, of course they are, for in these illustrations by Elsa Hartman, they are shown on the water. This is a fine vacation story. We will certainly take it along on the next picnic. It is an ideal summer story, sailing, golf. baseball, dancing and lots of sport and lots of fun.” Sue’s Lost Doll. Oh dear! sighed a little girl of about seven years, who was playing with “Mary Jane,” her doll. “I wish you wouldn't get so dirty. All I do is wash your clothes; now go on out and play.” “Sue, Sue,” called mother “Alright, just a mine ute, mother. Now Mary Jane you may play in the grass until I come back,” and Sue went trotting off toward home. “Will you go to the store for me, Sue!” asked mother. “Alright,” answered Sue, for the store was just across the street. In a few minutes Sue was handing the article to mother. “Thank you, honey,” said mother, and she leaned over and kissed Sue. “May I go play ty « Mary Jane now, mbther?” asked €. . *Yes; ‘darling arisweréd niother. ‘Away weht Sue’ as fast ds her little légs’ would ‘ ¢arty “her, back’ to the place where she left her beautiful Mary Jane.

Just us she reached the door mother opened it. “What's the matter dear?” mother. “I-I c-cay’t find m-my d-d-doll.” sobbed Sue. “Never mind, mother will buy you another one,” said mother soothingly. Sue then stopped crying. Several months passed, and one day Sue was out in the same field she was when she lost Mary Jane. All of a sudden she saw something green; then she remembered Mary Jane's dress was green. She walked over there, and to her surprise it was Mary Jane! All of her paint was off and she had lost ome arm and her dress was all fadec and ragged. She was a very pitiful sight to see. But she was the same old Mary Jane to Sue. And believe me, she was very careful what she did with her dolls after that. asked

More odd O even than women—and one can’t say more than that. Here was one, for instance, young, or at any rate youngish, and really rather good looking in a sert of way—nice straight eyes, an exceptionally sensitive mouth, a very decent nose, not athletic, in fact a delicate looking man— who had come te Nice te find the sun, and had found ft, with the result that only a small strip of his body, after two weeks of nearly complete sun worship on that part of the stony beach which is known all-over the world as La Grande Bleue, remained its nat- ural white. All the rest of it had taken on the deep tan of the un- selfconscious Zulu. And yet, in spite of having acilfieved his desire fully and brownly thus, he sat in an atti tude of one-piece calamity and continued to repeat to himself this catastrophic chant: “Desolate —life so gray and desolate. Wom- en and men in the crowd meet and mingle—-yet with itself every soul stands single—deep out of sympathy moaning its moan-— holding and having its brief ex- ultation—making its lonesome and low lamentation—fighting its terrible conflicts alone.” To which, with the curious sat- isfaction that goes with an orgy of self pity, he added triumph- antly, ‘“‘l will indulge my sorrows and give way to all the pangs and fury of despair.”’ Unlike most people who wear a halo of martyrdom in place of a hat. it must be said in fairness, however, that he had a more than usually good reason for these pangs and furies, although he had found the sun. His name was Legg, of which one now sees so many in this world. That conveyed nothing by itself—why should it? But when Nippy was placed in front of it in any part of England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man, a disturbance took place like that which flutters the seismegraph when the earth has tummy trouble. This serious young man had filled the largest music halls since 1924, when he sprang from the humiliation of a trial at a third- rate theater to the top of the bill at the Cohseum in ‘one terrific bound. From that epoch-making eve- ning he had been assisted by a girl who had never spoken a _ word. This was perhaps as well, because most of these that she had picked up she was unable to pronounce. Nevertheless, she pessessed a laugh which was worth its weight in gold, and it was her part of the partnership to break into constant and ostensibly impromptu out- bursts at everything that he did. She was pretty, too, which helps, and had been gifted by nature with a lovely figure of which she displayed, with great generosity, as mueh as she possibly could. Then, too, she had acquired a habit of tittering her feet which was irresistible. Her name on the bill was Rosie Calf, which had been invented on the spur of the moment, but she insisted on changing it all of a sudden, and then the trouble be- gan. She received a proposal of marriage and being awfully tired of the dismal routine of moving from town toe town and forcing ef- fortless ripples of mirth, she put her case to Nippy and begged to be released. Although she was bound to him by eontract for a period of six years, he knew that if he forced it the vital thing for which she had’ been engaged -would ‘go’ ab! fiat’ a& a ‘tire: ‘Then ton,lds Ahad néver - considered: the pobsihity of offers ing’ he? ‘ta little edld ring, so that she miehs laugh with him legiti- mately at whatever are the domes- tie adventures’ which occur in theatrical lodgings or large pro- vincial hétels, what was he to do?

He hoped against hope that he might find another girl as pretty and with the same _ invaluable laugh among that vaster and vaster number of young women who swarm into agents’ offices. Having given Rosie away, he diseovered, to his horror, that al- theugh there are plenty of girls who are pretty, there are none with spontaneous laughs.

She was always alone, like him- self. Although by no means beau- tiful ami with no pretense to it, she had been endowed with some- thing which is infinitely better than that. She diffused the sort of charm that makes one say, “By Jove!” Legg said it on spotting her, theugh naturally under his breath, atid came to the immediate conclusion that he had never seen anything so amusing in the way of noses, so honest in the way of eyes, sO courageous in the way of chins, or so kind in the way of mouths. “Rekiable,” he confided te him- self, “ahd neat; keeps appoint- ments, I’ bet you; carries a comb for her hair, and looks as healthy as a schoolboy who is frequently spanked,” Curious words of praise! It must be remembered, however, that Nippy had begun life as a call boy, knew the ways, habits and the frightful “side” of leading ladies and the others who imitated a and based his conclusions on a All his early romance, which had made the word love just as preposterous as a soppy design for a fountain, had lifted from his mind.

On the raft, to which he al- ways swam when she did, his ‘‘Nice here,’’ won only a bright and chirrupy “Very,’’ after which there was a slight movement of avoidance which said as plain as a pikestaff: “Mr. whatever your name is, we have not .been intro- duced. I don’t go im for prom- iscuous pickings up on the beach. Old stuff, I know very well. But there it is. That’s me.”’ It was absurd. It was awful. It was catastrophic. It was be- wildering. It was enough to make a stone bleed. Dash it, it wasn’t human and %t certainly wasn’t Nice, pronounce it how you like. But on and om it went. He never was able to detect any antagonism in her eyes.

But it brought an endless caravan of sleepless nights in its wake, bitter and hideous disappointment and thoughts of suicide.

Once more, therefore, as was natural, that dip into the tub of quotations. For instance: “Give serrow words; the grief that does not speak w ‘the o’er- fraught heart and bids it break.’ And again, “Men die, but sorrow never dies; the crowding years divide in vain, and the wide world is knit with ties of common brotherhood tn pain.’”” And yet again: “Alone, alone—all, all alone; alone on a wide, wide sea.”’ And this he turned into a song at which any dog must have howled. It lent itself to sone. One evening after dinner, brown inside and out, he made up his mind to present himself, complete- ly defeated, at Cook’s the follow- ing . It was his wnalterable intention to purchase that small collection of yellow pages the pos- session of which would enable him to return to Paris on the Blue Train and to Dover on the Isle of Thanet... He had brought himself up to the point of using one last week 6f life in the continuation of his search for a.laugh, and, if he failed again, to wind up his shat- tered career by jumping over.the embankment, at its most depress- ing-point. As for that cool, calm, but very charming girl, he tried to agree with Tennyson, to whom he often went, as to its being better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. He meandered among the clouds. The new moon was lying shyly on her back in a transparent sky. Stars rivaled the. string of lights which marked that lovely coast. A delicious breeze now tempered the summer heat and had blown away the haze. The whole of Nice was out. None of the girls wore stockings, although it was difficult to detect that fact because of the latest fashion, which demands that the sun shall give their legs the Riveria brown which is infinitely better than silk. Very few men wore coats or bothered themselves with ties. All but the Germans had hair—the Italians too ample, perhaps. Most of them were. hatless, though here and there a beret could be seen and oceasionally a straw.

As a member of the Ectentric Club he knew Nippy well enough to .be able to drop the Legg. In fact, his only reward for losing money in the theater was the power it gave him to call the leading members of the profes- sion by their Christian names. “Hullo, hulle, hullo,’”’ he said. (He would.) “What the so and so and se forth are you. doing here, old bird?’’ At which, overwhelmed with gratitude at being able at last to pour out his soul to some one whe recognized him ‘as a human be- ing with the troubles that belong to his kind, Nippy drew this angel to a vacant table on the terrace of the Savoy, opened the flood- gates of his pent-up mind and told him everything. O'Callaghan was Irish and it goes without saying, therefore, that he was a sympathetic man. He was moved about-the lost villa, though he refused to believe in that girlk—he had never met one like that. But what seemed to him to be most tragic, distressing and even absurd was that a little genius like Nippy should be re- moved from his work for the pub- lic because ke couldn’t find a laugh. He krfew a great number of young women who did nothing but laugh. And then, with a remarkable brain wave, he announced the fact that he had heard of a girl in Nice—yes, actually here in Nice— who was hot only extremely pretty and already in the profession, but was earning her living at that very moment by the stimulation of mirth. “They tell mé that she is doing what Rosie Calf used to do, and that her partner is a man ‘who tries to fmitate you.” Becoming nicely excited — he was from Dublin, you see—he went on to say that she was mak- ing her appearance nightly at the larger of the two casinos, wedged in between a family of gymnasts and a lady with a voice. He wound up by shouting, “Let's go!” ' Without a shred of confidence or the fag end of faith, Nippy per- mitted himself to be hoisted into a cab. This drove off at once to the building in the Place Massena, outside which all sensible people had remained to snuff the air.

The _ audience was wholly coatless and . all the men waved fans. “Come along, old bird,” said O’Callaghan, taking Nippy’s arm. “I know the joker who runs the stage—English, an awfully decent sort. He will tell us about this girl and give you the chance to look her over at close range be- fore she does her bit. How's that?” ‘ “Thanks most awfully,” Nippy. » He wasn’t remotely interested in the girl—there.was, indeed, only one girl alive on earth, and she, so far as he was concerned, mshight just as well be in heaven— ‘but it was good te be with some ‘one who took an interest in him. ‘ Would he ever forget those tongue-tied days, that agonizing introspection, his unrequited love, his appalling loneliness, and his final certainty that he was anathema to the Mrs. Legg of his dreams? O'Callaghan headed straight for the manager's office. He knew this place. He had an im- mense bu + Ug of geography and an irresistible knack of going. in where other angels feared to tread. “Hello, George,”” he said heart- fly. “‘How and when and what, and all that sort of thing?’’ The person thus addressed was not George. He never had been George. He never wonld be George. He loathed the name of George. But it made-no differ- ence then. As a matter-of-fact, he was too frenzied to notice the O’Callaghan method of applying the difficult duty of godparent to his numerous acquaintances. *“‘How and when and what, eh? You may well ask.

Nothing to write home about, but the girl’s liked and they’ve been get- ting over.’’ “Great Scott!’’ said the sympa- thetic O’Callaghan. “It is a eart, by Jove. How did it come about?” The temporary George ran both his anxious hands through his al- ready disheveled hair. “That fool Boot has been drinking again. He was fairly all right at the be- ginning of the week, but he came on pickled last’ night. utes ago a message came through over the telephene to say that he’d been run over on the Prom- enade and carted to a clinic.. All the people on the first half have mooched off, and who’s to substi- tute? Anybody can have my life I don’t want .it.” He almost dropped a tear. Nippy was near the door.. He was always near the door. Some- one with a charming voice was talking just outside. There was a little desperate quiver in it which moved him instantly. “It isn’t as though he hadn’t asked for it—he’s only just missed being smashed up a dozen times _this week. But to think of his being in hospital more or less in bite! Oh, poor Jack—poor, silly Jack. And what’s to. become of me?

Several of the waiters remembered to applaud. The audience, if. that were possi- ble, was cold.

Indeed, she almost died. One stitch after another put her into agonies. My word but this was no mere Boot! This was a Boot with Uppers—a Patent Leather Boot! Instead of the usual unasked return which Boot and she had made to an audience consulting its programs and thinking about drinks, they ate their way hunk- ishly into the period allotted to their successors because of end- less calis. Never in the history of the casino had there been such roars of applause. And finally, whey Nippy pre- tended to become giddy and fell bang into the drum—at which Miss Slipper’s scream disturbed -the sleeping swallows under the building’s roof and almost stopped the tram—the audience, to quote O’Callaghan—who felt that he had made a dent in his- tory, and for a wonder—‘went off its blinkin’ nut.’”’ It must be said that “‘George’”’ was wringing wet. He would save his reputation for his error in engaging a performér who drank before his turn, and make his name along all that coast’s casinos for picking up a substi- tute who would treble the re- ceipts. Treble——aye, quadruple. It was atriumph. It was a riot. Tigere was a queer little glint in Nippy’s eyes when he staggered into the office panting and fell into a chair. The manager was slapping one of his shoulders and O’Callaghan the other. And near the door stood Nelly Slipper, holding her sides. Before O’Callaghan could shape an exuberant word, the manager cut in. “What’ll you take to stay in the bill for a couple of months?” he asked. *“You are very kind,” said Nip- —————— ooo _ SS Se eS his recapture escape.

To illustrate the manner in which postoffice inspectors carry effected on their work, displaying traits and persistency, the case of James Johnson, alias Portland Ned, prob- ably one of the most experienced safe crackers in the world, is cited. Johnson was arrested on August 14, 1914, at Danbury, N. C., on an indictment: covering the burg- lary of the postoffice at Plymouth, N. C., on June 13, 1898.

His eyes-were on Nelly’s charm- ing face, and they were alive with hope, approval, deference, amuse- ment, and gleaming with tender- ness. “Unless, that is, Miss Slipper will, if she can, consent to detach herself from Jack Boot and join up with me—fit on to another limb, in fact, that has a foot.

The man who stood before hér was that most ridiculous person whom she had been egging on for a fort- night by the policy of keeping off. *‘Good heavens, it’s——it’s you,” she gasped beneath her breath.

Inspectors ( Get Their Men, Too ———————————— = —- —_—— Johnson subsequently was jen- tenced, January 22, 1915, to seven years imprisonment in the peni- tentiary at Raleigh, N. C. While persistency is their strong point, the records disclose that postal inspectors are by no means deficient in their ingenuity. Some two or three years ago the inspectors were faced with a first-class mystery in the contin- ued rifling of registered letters and packages in the Southwest section of the country. The thefts were finally narrowed down to one of six postoffices, but the question as to which one of the six was not easy to determine. One feature of all the thefts was that after the letters and packages had .been opened they were resealed. This gave one of the inspectors at work on the case an idea which, for fear of ridicule by his associates, he put into practice without disclosing his method. A few weeks later, when the inspector was handed another letter that had been opened, rified and resealed, he moistened the mucilage on the flap and held the envelope to his nose. Tak- ing a good long sniff. he smiled and calmly announced that the thief would be apprehended with- in a week. The plan of campaign he had worked out was.to prepare six lots of mucilage, each having a different perfume—-lilac, violet, lily of the valley, mignonette, rose. and heliatrope. This mvycilage was, distributed among. the six offices. under suspicion in the hope that the thief would make use of it in resealing the letter or package. The hope was not in vain and when the inspector sniffed the letter that had been rifled and resealed, he knew from the per- fume of the mucilage the office where the theft had taken place. It was an easy matter thereafter to apprenhend the guilty party. “The criminal world,” declared Chief Postoffice Inspector Spil- man recently. “has a wholesale fear of postoffice inspectors and it is because of the reputation of these men for ‘keeping at it’ long after most officers of the law are willing to quit and forget., The idea here is that the United States mail.is such a sacred institution that no tampering with it or fraudulent use of it shall go un- punished, even though it may take as it often does, five, ten or more ‘years to diseover the offender and place him. behind the bars.” ‘ °°***

12 ee eee ee T is not only in days of good 7 fortune that Uncle Sam min- isters to the millions of home- makers in this land. But when disasters overtake the people such as befell the unhappy folk in Naples region of Italy in the recent earthquakes and volcano eruptions Uncle Sam through his great official agency of mercy, the American Red Cross, is on hand. When disasters descend upon a city or State the local authori- ties are often taxed beyond their means to meeet the needs of the stricken inhabitants. Then the American Red Cross appears on the scene with its trained workers, ite supplies of medicine, food and clothing, and plague, disease and distress disappear as if by magic uader the benison of the flag with its flaming red cross. While the ministrations of the American Red Cross are not re- stricted to this country, yet the United States has first call upon its assistance, The record of the American Red Cross in the World War is well known. But that it is equally as. effective in days of peace may not be quite so familiar to the people. During the World War the amazing total of 72,000,000 articles - were made by volunteer workers under the banners of the Red Cross for the use of the defenders of America. In peace time more than 40,000 nurses are kept on the Red Cross rolls, ready at all times to func- tion in disasters and other na- tional emergencies. Another means Incle Sam takes in guarding the health of his people is through the Army and Navy Nursing Corps which care for the welfare and physical well-being of the men of the united service and their families. This army of nurses is, of course, available also in times of catastrophe and still further adds to the protection of America in times of peril and plague.

Fag Bad Habits of Your Baby (Children’s Bureau, Department of Labor.) Crying——Crying should not be classed as a bad habit without some modification, for although a well baby does not cry very much, he has no other means of expressing his needs in the early months of his life, and his cry ought to be heeded. But when he cries simply because he has learned from experience that this brings what he wants, it is one of the worst habits he can learn, and ome which takes all the strength of the mother to break. Crying should cease when the cause has been removed. If the baby cries persistently for no ap- parent cause, the mother may suspect illness, pain, hunger or thirst. The first two of these causes will manfiest other symp- . . toms, and the’ actual .need ; for food may be ‘dis¢overed by tre- quent weighing. But if, after care- ful scrutiny of all these condi- tions, no cause for the crying can be found, the baby probably wants to be taken up, walked with, played with, rocked, or to have a light, or to have some one sit by him—all the result - of having learned that crying will get him Start Making Play Suits Early in the Cool Autumn. (Bureau of Homé Economics.) Children from 2 to 4 are es- pecially in need of comfortable, warm, nonrestricting garments in which they can play out-of-doors in almost any weather without catching cold or spoiling their clothes. Mothers who are plan- ning to make most of their chil- dren’s fall wardrobes will do well to include one or more play suits made of faifly close, moisture- proof fabrics. The selection of the material will depend some- what on the climate and the kind. of.weather the child is exposed to. The Bureau of Home _ Eco- nomics has designed play suits of several different kinds suitable for use in the fall and spring, in the coldest part of the winter, or on rainy days. A leaflet describ- ing them may be obtained from the United States Department of Agricuiture. One of the most practical types is shown in the accompanying picture. This play suit is made of closely-woven, lightweight wool fabric similar to kasha cloth and somewhat re- sembling a light flarmmel. It has knitted wrist and leg bands and a knitted collar. The knitted finish is recommended because it confines extra fullness and keeps out wind without restricting cir- culation or muscles. Self-help in dressing is en- couraged by the front opening with large flat buttons. The back drop is finished with tab exten- sions at the waistline, so that when the belt is fastened the placket does not gap. Notice the fullness in-the leg back of the knee which helps to give roomi- ness in the seat. In most wool fabrics this fullness is shrunk into the seam. When cutting out these suits the side line of the back section should always curve out slightly at the point where this fullness comes just above the knee. If the line were straight there would be a strain on the seam when the child sat down or squatted on the ground. All children’s play suits should have pockets placed-so that they can be easily reached. Welt pockets are used on the suit il- lustrated. They are placed low, INCLE SAM and the HOM ‘ as MES BLS ee ee oe x a Bi SF SRO Be eat oR Sys tag Soe neat rae > i 4 This play suit for early fall is of light-weight wool cloth with knitted bands. near the waistline, and slightly diagonal, so that a child puts his hand into them easily. A tam with a knitted band completes this costume. The cloth part is made in two sec- tions. All the knitted parts of the outfit are more satisfactory if small needles and sweater yarn are used to make them. The yarn may be of a contrasting color, but the effect is generally moré pleasing if it matches the fabric in color and the coatrast is one of texture. the mother: in this event, the opinion of a good doctor as to the cause of the crying should be sought. There is little, if any, danger that crying will cause rup- ture. “Pacifiers” or ‘“‘comforts”—The extremely bad habit of sucking on a rubber ring or a sugar ball, or a bread ball, or any other arti- cle is one for which some one else is entirely responsible. The baby does not teach himself this disgusting habit, and he should not have to suffer for it. Seme of the evil effects ascribed to this habit are that it spoils the nat- ural arch of the mouth by caus- ing the protrusion of the upper jaw; it induces a constant flow of saliva and keeps the baby drool- ing: the pacifier is never clean what he wants, sufficient to make a spoiled, fussy baby, and a house- hold tyrant whose continual de- mands make a slave of the mother. It is difficult to break up this habit after it has once been formed, but it can be done. ‘After the baby’s meeds have been fully satisfied he should be put down glone and allowed to cry until he goes to sleep. This may sound cruel, and it is very hard for a young mother to do, but it wHl usually take only a few nights of this discipline to accom- plish the result. Im. some cases persistent crying may be due to @auses not readily discernible by Y. cali Pier! roe . ~- — ” ym ie oo CAPRA OE: oO a and may readily carry the germs of disease inot the baby’s mouth; and last and least, it is a habit which is particular disfiguring to the baby’s appearance. No such object should ever be permitted in the baby’s mouth. Thumb or finger sucking—tThis is another habit leading to the same results as the use of paci- fiers, but one which the baby may acquire for himself, although it is frequently taught to him. To break. up either habit requires resolution and patience on the part of the mother. The thumb or finger must be persistently and constantly removed from the mouth and the baby’s attention diverted to something else. The sleeve may be pinned or sewed down over the fingers.

I¢ed tea or a fruit drink completes a meal that can be eaten either indoors or out, and that will-be sufficiently attrac- tive for guests The salad illustrated in the pic- ture is appropriate for a luncheon of this kind. It consists of a mound of cottage chees on lettuce leaves, surrounded by sections of tomato and topped with a spoon- ful of mayonnaise dressing. The lettuce should be washed thor- oughly and crisped in the refrig- erator for several hours fn a clean cloth or paper bag. Cut each to- mato into sections at the time you are ready to arrange the salad on individual plates. The following recipe for mayonnaise is from the Bureau of Home Economics of, the U. S. Department_of Agricul- ture. Mayonnaise Dressing. 1 egg yolk. 7 % to 1 cup oil. ' 2 tablespoons lemon. juice or vinegar. % teaspoon salt. % teaspoon pepper. Paprika. % teaspoon sugar. Mix the spices: Add one table- spoon-of the acid, which may be either lemon juice or vinegar or a combination of the two. Add the egg yolk and beat slightly. Then begin adding oil, about a tea- spoon or two at a time, and beat thoroughly. Continue adding oil until a heavy mixture is formed. The remainder of the atid may be worked in, as the mixture be- comes very thick. Do not use more than one cup of oi! with one egg yolk. Omelets. Omelets fluffy and omelets fat are made of the same ingredients: One egg for each person, 1 table- spoon of milk for each egg, and salt to taste. Beat the egg yolks and whites separately for a fluffy omelet; beat them together for a flat omelet. To make a fluffy omelet*for an average family use from 4 to 6 eges. For a 4-egg omelet, beat the yolks thoroughly and add 4 tablespoons of milk. If prefer- red, the milk may be heated; it will then cook the yolks slightly when it is added and give the mixture a smoother consistency. Or, one-half cup of hot white sauce of medium thickness added to the 4 yolks will make a larger omelet with more body. Fold the yolk mixture gradually and care- fully into the stiffly beaten whites | containing one-fourth teaspoon of salt. Have ready and hot a smooth a 1 n. sal heavy omelet pan .containing 1 tablespoon melted butter, and pour the egg mixture into the pan. The omelet may be cooked in- three different ways; but in any case start it on top’ of the stove at moderate heat. If a smalil- sized gas or oil burner is move the pan about so that the omelet will cook around th edge \ at the same rate as in the center. | a As soon as the omelet hag brown- ed slightly on the bottom, place it in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) and bake for 10 minutes. Or, continue the cooking on top of the. stove until the mixture sets, and then place under a low broiler flame for 2° or 3 minutes. Or, if preferred, cover the pan during the whole period and so cook the top of the omelet with steam. When the omelet is done, crease it through the center, fold it over with a spatula, and roll it onte a dish. Cooked Dressing for Fruit Salad 2 whole eggs, or 4 egg yolks, % cup vinegar. 1 cup sour cream, %tablespoon sugar. % teaspoon salt. -\% teaspoon mustard. % teaspoon paprika. Beat the eggs, add the other ingredients, and mix thoroughly. Cook in a double boiler, and stir constantly until the mixture thickens. ' Honey Icing. 1 cup granulated sugar. % cup water. % cup honey. 1 ege white. Boll together the’sugar and the — water for a few moments and then add the honey, taking pre- cautions to prevent the mixture from, boiling over, as it is likely to do. Cook until drops of the sirup keep their form when poured inte cold water, or to about 250 degrees F. Beat the white of the eggs until stiff, and when the sirup has cooled slightly pour over the egg, beating the mixture continuously until it will hold its shape. ‘This frosting is suitable for wse between—layers of cake, but is rather too soft for the top. It remains in good condition and soft enough to be spread for many weeks and, therefore, can be made in latge quantities for use as needed. After eight months, euch icing made in this laboratory was found to be in good condition and soft enough to cut. Sauce for Ice Cream. 2 tablespoons butter. 2 teaspoons cornstarch. % cup honey. Cook together the cornstarch and butter thoroughly, being care~ ful not to brown them. Add the honey and cook the mixture until it becomes hard when dropped into cold water and until all taste of raw cornstarch has been re- moved.

Break, break, break, At the foot of thy crags, O sea! But the tender grace of a day that s dead Will never come back to me. Now James Whitcomb Riley, dramatizing the old-fashioned country poet, expressed with equal authority and sincerity this same emotion in a definite, concrete way. And the feeling in his poetry is so genuine, so free from any affectation or any false senti- ment or forced pathos, that it is no wonder his verses have appeal- ed and will appeal te hundreds of thousands. I am sure an immense ==> Life of J number of Americans, young and old, can quote Riley—one of the highest compliments a poet can receive. Any allusion to “The Old Swim- min’ Hole,” to “When the Frost is on the Punkin,” to ‘‘Little Orphant Annie,” to “An Old Sweetheart of Mine,” to “There! little girl; don’t cry!” is immediately recognized anywhere in America. Successor to Longfellow. James Whitcomb Riley is our only national poet who is a true successor to Longfellow. He ex- preseed, most successfully in dia- lect, the thoughts, sentiments, re- grets and aspirations of the com- mon péople. And I should be sorry for any man, no matter how sophisticated he might be, who did not feel a thrill of response to the sentiment expressed in “The Old Swimmin’ Hole.” One of the best things ever said about Riley was stated by Don Marquis, who had a profound in- sight into Riley’s genius. Speak- ing of the way our boyish imagi- nations beeome enslaved by con- vention, how we all become cor- rectly shandardized in thought as well as in clethes, and thus lose our liberty, Don Marquis called, Riley an “untamed Hoosier.”” He “was a Hoosier who happily escaped; he was never captured, never enslaved; the things hidden from the rest of us, or revealed only in flashes, remembered but vaguely from the days of our own ' challenging happy Hoosierdom, he continued te see steadily; he lived among them familiarly to the end, and until the end was their inter- preter to us.” Loved to Piay Hookey. Yet Riley’s love of “playing hookey,”’ of wandering without supervision through green pas- tures and by still waters, was en- tirely free from any defiance or hatred. The modern note of God was so repug- nant to him that in one of his letters he says these writers are “pouting at high heaven, as though God didn’t appreciate ' their real worth, or in all prob- ability was just a little jealous of their high accomplishments and possibilities in the Jehovah line.”’ When some one read to him Henley’s famous poem, ending: I am the Master of my fate: I am the Captain of my soul— “The hell you are,” said Riley _with a-laugh. His unaffected piety was so free from cant that he could not en- dure any flavor of sanctimonious- ness. Speaking of a sealous friend, Riley said, “‘He even prays for me, and prejudices God against me.” I wonder if Riley has received full credit for poems of pure im- agination, which mo one but a true poet conkid have written’?

~ 6 By ELISABETH E. POE. ELDOM does an author noted S for his spicy and sometimes brutal comments on men and things afford so splendid'a target for reprisals as Arnold Bennett in his “Journat1929,” in which he has permitted his publishers to print his diary for that year. There is no doubt that Mr. Ben- neit’s diary will be well worth the reading as well as all revealing. Of course, the fine old art of memoir, diary and journal keep- ing is fast disappearing beneath modern pressure and the limita- tions of the line a day books. Yet it can assume even today the aspect of literature and that is what we may expect from Mr. Bennett. America’s Ambassador to the Court of St. James has stolen a march on American publishers and gotten an English firm, Allen & Unwin, to bring out his “Jour- nal of the Great War.” If Gen. Dawes has couched his journal in the same picturesque diction he uses in testifying before Senate and other committees we may count on some ‘“‘mighty Tich read- ing.’ It is certain that not only in the United States but in other countries as well this war book is being eagerly awaited. For Gen. Dawes did many things and did them well in the great war; he met everybody worth mentioning, and he had a great deal to do with the shaping of certain high events. Since the World War he has served the people in the not unim- portant office of Vice President. All these facts will contribute an advanee interest to the Dawes journal which its publication is bound to heighten. BEFORE AND AFTER PROHI- RITION. By Millard E. Tyd- ines. (The MacMillan Co., New York.) That prohibition is a moot question even in the United States Senate can readily be discerned by ewen the most cursory exami- nation of this new view of the prevailing topic of the day by the brilliant young senator from Maryland. Senator Tydings is frank to avow in unequivocal terms that he believes that prohibition is a failure. Yet he does not content himself with presenting simply the facts. against prohibition. From the most reliable sources possible, from Government rec- ords and archives, police depart- ments and insurance companies he has gathered authentic data. Senator Tydings holds that the root of the failure of prohibition is in “trying to enforce a local responsibility by means of a na- tional law.” The senator calls for the return of the question of pro- hibition to the States themselves ‘“sinee it is contrary to the spirit of the Constitution to allow the Federal Government to interfere with local and State governments in matters that are purely local in character.” . It is only reasonable that such a vronounced declaration on be- half of States’ rights should come from Maryland’s junior senator. There are many north of Mason and Dixon’s line who will be found ready to agree with him 65 and more vears after the war between the States was fought to settle this momentous issue. There is a clarion call to duty when Senator Tydings writes: ‘ete we have any faith at all in the American citizen, whether he live in New York City or Topeka, in Raltimore or Seattle, we must believe that eventually through trial and local interest. he will attoek the evils of his community as he himself knows them, and eventually sofve them.” On this rests the ultimate solu- tien not only of prohibition but other vexed national questions. Al... IN THE RACKET. William EF. Weeks. Boni, New York.) To pick up this book right after reading Senator Tydings on pro- hibition is like a confirmation of his claim that prohibiiton has much to do with the crime wave which has nearly submerged our youth beneath its nauseous waters. It is also an indictment of cir- cumstantial évidence when used fo convict in capital crimes. Paul Sella was & criminal,’ yes, with a long record for oné”of his few years, but he was not a murderer. Yet he died for a murdér which he did not commit, and a girl who By (Charles ‘+ “Nad befriended him when ‘he stole > a » eUA ~ — ‘4 oe Ose ae8y nat qanut ee, ehnity of labor, o448 from her almost went to prison through a case of . mistaken identity. It is a thrilling story and well done. The writer has pictured crime with a realistic pen and the action is rapid and without any dull moments in it. There is a text out of St. Paul which bears on the moral issues in the story.” It is, “Evil com- munications corrupt good man- ners.” If Paul Sella had not been a gunman, a gangster and a racketeer he might have lived to a ripe old age. YOU AND YOUR JOB. By James John Davis and John Calvin Wright. (John Wiley & Sons, ‘Ine., New York.) Few men could be more capa- ble of talking about jobs than these two men. One igs the Secre- tary of Labor, who carved his way up to this important post in ° the Nation by doing his job well from the days when he was a tiny boy going to and from the mines to today, when his job is to see that labor in this Nation gets a chance and a squate ‘eal.

This book is written in an un- usual style, as it is mostly a rec- ord of dialogues on the great question of jobs between Secre- tary ~of Labor Davis and Mr. Wright, full of human interest, wisdom, logic, advice and truisms. The book brings out the dig- the fellowship of labor and the joy and satisfaction of real work. If it were not writ- ten in such a plain matter of fact manner it might be called a thesis on the psychology and philosophy of work. It inspires ambition and will without doubt prove invalu- able to the thinking new workers who seek jobs for-the first time. “Vocational education,” the Secretary says in this book to the director of vocational education, “is one of those quiet revolutions that are making America a bet- ter Nation. . . . Nor is it a new idea. One of the oldest nations taught every child some trade that would enable him to earn a living as occasion might require after he left his father’s home. . .. Our criminals go4o prison and lose their self-respect for the rea- son that they never were taught a useful trade. Many a man has committed theft for the simple reason that stealing was the only job he knew how to do well. Men become hoboes, loafers and bums for the same reason—because they haven't learned how to be anything else.’’ The Secretary of Labor also has views on the duties of the American woman as a home- maker. “I think,’ he says, “that every American girl, whoever she is, should be taught to take care of a home with all that it implies.”’ ADVENTURE. By Major General the Right Honorable J. E. B. Seely. (Frederick A. Stokes Ce., New York.) This autobiography of a man who at sixty can say “Life has al- ways been to me a glorious ‘ad- venture” is well worth reading if only for the pyschological effect of such high spirits. But, of course, it is more, for it is the life Story of an Englishman who seems to embody all the finest ideals and traditions the British soldier, statesman and sportsman are expected to have. In the in- troduction, the Right Honorable the Earl of Birkenhead says: ‘“‘He has held high administrative of- ficey fought with the utmost gal- lantry in two great wars, acted for many years as member of a fa- mous lifeboat crew and practiced at the bar.” In the very start of this auto- biography Maj. Gen. Seely throws down the gauntlet to those who would keep on the safe side. For he describes himself as a volun- tary and lucky disciple of that German philosopher who taught the doctrine of “living danger- ously.’’ Every period of the life of this man has been literally crowded with danger, daring and with achievement. He has a sttaight, forward, lucid but modest way of describing his exploits, which ig both genuine and attractive. Sd e b Oe ie i bia | a’ a ee ee ie NT i . t 4 ' ee * — o ? The value and philosophy of food and its effect on our lives and actions, our youth and our old age as set forth in this work are rather startling. Perhaps we have read the rather amazing figures in regard to school children «culled from official sources set forth in this book but we read with deep in- terest what this author has to say about the cause and effect of it. We can not pass it over as not our affair when we are reminded that at least 1 per cent——-200,000 —of the 20,000,000 school chil- dren of the United States are men- tally defective; at least 5 per cent —1,000,000—-have now or have had tuberculosis; 25 per cent— 5,000,000—of these children have defective eyes, and about 25 per cent — 5,000,000 — are suffering from malnutrition and poverty. Besides this * there are a lot of other statistics which must give us pause, and make us anxious to read what Mr. Loughran has to say about it. SANATORIUM. | By D. Stewart. (Harper & Bros., New York.) Of course, many of us will wonder why .the author did not place his theme on a more ro- mantic platform, but there are those who will read with keen delight the story of the man, young and doomed. Of course, many will not enjoy the descrip- tion .of the physical symptoms. The author s@ems to desire to” draw before the eye of his readers the comparable horrors of mutila- tion in war. Anyway, all London is reading’ © this book, and without doubt by the time it is displayed on the: book shelves of our leading stores. and libraries, all America will be reading it, too. Something new and something nerve racking— who could ask for more? oe" ies ae t~. ee a ee Reali By W.

Come along boys.” One day, G. P. Huntley, the comedian, was making-up in 4 dressing room at Oxford, chuckles Grahgm,. when he heard a some- what affected member of the com- pany remark that although it was nearly twenty years since he had been at Oxford, he had never lost its characterictic accent.” “Well,” said Huhtley, “that certainly is curious, for it’s only & three night stand.”’ Which recalls a story about W. S. Gilbert—he of the biting wit. A certain actor-was very fond of prefacing his remarks’ with: “When I was at Oxford.” This affectation annoyed Gilbert and one night at the supper table of the Garrick Club, the actor at last got what was coming to him. “When I was at Oxford,”’ (pause) he began in a loud voice. “Circus,’’ piped in Gilbert. Oxford Circus is a London _ thoroughfare, of course. And reminds me of another evening at the Garrick Club when Richard Harding Davis was a guest. Now Dick Davis was a splendid- fellow but just a little vain. He came into the supper room wearing a wonderful fur coat, which, when he threw it off, exposed to the amazed view of the companuy some decorations given him by various foreign gov- ernments in recognition of his brilliant work as a foreign cor- respondent. Dick was introduced all round, and while yet the com- pany were under the dazzlement of his display, Henry Irving, who knew him well and his weakness, remarked, fingering the various medals: “Ah!—Swimminfg?’’ + * . - “T have heard of only one man who was not spoilt by being lion- ized,’’ remarked a wit. “And who was he?” asked the “‘goat.’”” “The prophet Daniel, sir,” was the response. : * * 7. . Once when Conan Doyle was staying -with Barrie at Kirrie- muir—just after Barrie had writ- ten his ‘Window in Thrums” and tourists were arriving from all parts to see the place—he re- marked to the wife of the local hotel man: - “I suppose you have réad Mr. Barrie’s books”’ “Aye, I’ve read them, and steep, steep, weary. work it was,’’ said she. es: She had-some_theory that it was a four-horse coach which her good man was running, and not Barrie at all which accounted for the boom. * . . * By the way, Conan Doyle al- ways hoped that he had a hand in fashioning Barries’ great play, “The Admirable Crichton.”’ “‘We were walking together on the Heath @f’Kirr -< ain.” relates Doyle in his ‘memoirs, “when I said: ‘EI had a quaint thought in the night, Barrie. It was that a king was-visiting India and was wrecked on the way oa some island far from the track of ships. Only he and one rather handy sailor were saved: They settled down ‘to spend their gether. Of course the result would. be that the sailor would become the king- and) the king the subject... We chuckled over the idea, aid-when Crichton ap- peared, I seemed to seegthe fine plant which had grown up from the tiny seed.”’ i ce ere oS he first time Conan Doyle vis- ited George Meredith at Box Hill, when lunch came round Meredith asked his guest, with a very ear- nest air, whether he could un- dertake to drink a whole bottle of. Burgundy. Doyle answered that he saw no insuperable dif- ficulty.. A dusty old botle -was then brought in. which Doyle dis- posed. of, Meredith taking a friendly interest in its dispatch. “The fact. is,”. explained Mere- sat Os ear * Ss 54 The con- . lives. to- | dith,. who was prohibited by the doctor from sharing the bottle, “I love my wine, and my Tittle cellar. was laid down with care and judgment, so that when some guest comes and drinks a glass and wastes the rest of the bottle it goes to my heart. It really did me good to see you enjoy that one.”’ “I need not say,” adds Conan Doyle (in “‘Memories and Adven- tures”), “‘that .I intimated that I was always prepared to oblige.” 7 7 « . ‘ Every now and then during the meal, recalls Conan Doyle, his host “brought out a Meredithian sentence which sounded comic when applied to domestic miat- ters.” When the jelly swayed about as the maid-put it on the table he said: “The jelly, Mary, is as. treach- erous as the Trojan Horse.”’ Meredith laughed when Conan ‘Doyle .told him how his (Doyle’s) groom, enlisted as a waiter for some’ special dinner, said, ‘“Hud- dup, :there,” to the jelly under similar circumstances. = o - Strange as it may. seem, says Thomas F. Madrigan (in “Word Shadows of the Great’’), holo- graph letters of Presidents Jef- ferson, Madison, Monroe and Ad- ams, are more numerous and less valuable than equally important letters of Presidents McKinley, Roosevelt; Wilson and Hoarding. This is due in part to the tele- phone, telegraph, fast transpor- tatidn and other modern means of communication which to a large extent have supplanted writ ten eorrespondence. | i * 7 * Oo Take the case of President Harding—a striking example of the change wrought by these new conditions. Dead less than ten years, he is already regarded as the rarest of the Presidents in full autograph letters. About a year ago, Mr. Madigan says, one of. Harding’s letters, not of out- standing importance, was sold at auction for more than a thousand dollars. This scarcity, of course, only applies to letters written by him while he was President. . . * 7 A desire to learn, first hand, what people in the audience really thought of his plays found George Ade one night seated near a lady and gentleman in the stalls of a New York theater, during the per- formance of “The College Wid- ow.”’. Ade had picked the couple out as being most intelligent in appearance and evidently people of consequence. Therefore, thought he, tieir comments on the. play would be worth while. At the end of the first act they ‘made no tomment whatever and merely looked at each other. After the next act the same thing hap- pened. When the curtain - fell they proceeded to walk, out of the theater. Ade followed them,. and just as they were eqtting into a cab the woman turned to her com- anion with a grim look, which he returned, and said: nent ' “Well, you would come.” - * s . . The .custom of throwing old shoes after a bride is, it seems, one of the ancient ways by which a father transferred his authority over the girl to her husband, the shoe being the.symbol-of authority. At an Anglo-Saxon wedding the shoe was as indispensable as the ring today, says Estelle H. Ries (in “Mother Wit’). During the ceremony the bride passed her shoe to the groom, who signified his future authority by tapping her on the head with it. : f ° - * * : Then our word ‘‘paper” is de- rived from the ancient “papyrus,” used by the a Ao and made from the pith of.a reed that grew along the Nile. Before the inven- tion of papyrus the large leaves of certain plants were prepared so they could be written upon. From this originates the term “leaves” of a book. When steel pins were first in- vented they were so expensive that onl! the wealthy could afford them.

How do we know all this talk about speakeasies isn’t bosh?’’ “T conld tell you more about that,” said the Yogi Curran, “if I knew what bosh was.”’ ““Bosh is tush,’ said the Swami Shugrue. “I should say, rather, that it is posh,” corrected the Yogi Dugan. “Don’t tet’s get inte internecine ’ strife, at the beginning of our ex- pedition,”” pleaded the Mahatma Twiggle “Don't let’s get .into what?” asked the Swami Ward, who had refused to be chased home follow- ing the Joan of Are fountain epi- sode. “Into internecine strife,” said the Mahatma, proudly. “You know, it sounds rather— rather—oh, what is the word I want?” said Ward. “T’ll give you 10-to-1 he means intriguing,” wagered the Yogi Fiori. Nobody would accept the bet, and indeed it did turn out that what the Swami Ward-was think- Ing about was, indeed, the word “intriguing.” “Tl agree with the Swami,” said » “I'd love some in- the Yogi Curran. “Tt isn’t,” the Mahatma assured them, “but come, let’s be getting on with our protest. -The first point to decide is whether we shall simply defy the Methodist Board of Temperance and Morals and then rest our case, or shall we so one point further and insult F.

A ee ee ee ee. ee ee eee Oe a eee ————— Se ee ee — a 7 ow The First “Pygmy” Golf Course. THE “WESTWARD HO" T HIRTY years after the above picture was “news,” Ameri- can girls, clad in only a little less cumbersome costumes than the ladies of Devon, were playing “at” golf despite the pro- tests of their fathers and brothers who stated frankly that “the pres- ence of ladies on the golf course is not desirable for several rea- sons, and though it may seem un- gallant to do so, we suggest that the privilege be not ted them at present.” Less than four de- cades ago the organizers of one of the first, if not the first, golf clubs in the South were shouted at in the streets when the ap- peared in their modest LADIES’ GOLF CLUB AT BIDEFORD, DEVON, ENGLAND. With all sorts of international championships in our hands these days it is hard to believe that America remained so long behind England in sports. It took far less time for American colonials to defeat the mother count with bullets than it did with golf balls. But this perhaps was not 50 strange when we remember that the “first hundred years” were the hardest and were spent pretty evenly between hard labor or hard fighting, both of which were nec- essary to maintain life, Golf was hoary with age in Scot- land at the time the picture ap- peared recording the introduction of the game to the English ladies. The first club organized in North Devon, under the name of “West- ward Ho” was evidently so called in honor of the popular book by Charles Kingsley. Its members, undeterred by considerable criti- cism played the game on a much reduced course and with the put- ter only. “This implement,” it was explained, “need not cost more than four shillings sixpence, and with fair play will last for years.” * “Gutta percha” balls were offered at a shill and threepence. It evidently took a long time for the “Westward Ho” spirit to move westward across the Atlantic and when the American women did take hold of the game they began with a driver. Perhaps the minia- ture golf course is only a throw- back to North Devon of 60 years ago after all.

Im the little town of Salem, near Roan- oke, for instance, wedged in be- tween two rows of ugly business houses, nestles the beautiful old Moravian Church, which every visitor to that place goes to for a quiet half hour, and which is men- tioned in many books of travels. Onty by ‘int tradition do the. townspeople know its history, which is embedded in long-forgot- ten records. This Salem, near the Carolina border, was in erxisteneé before that other Saleth, now the twin of Winston, in Carolina, began. To e@ach came the Moravians, trekking down the great Valley of. Virginia from Pennsylvania, a sturdy German stock, who brought with them from their homeland ideals of culture that they ex- pressed best in their houses of worship. ““‘What a beautiful re- ligion that must be,” you exclaim softly, “which could so beauti- fully express itself in such a chureh!”’ Amd far up in northern Vir- ginia, on the King’s Highway, one : | memorial of re mear Mount Vernon, Pe- hick Parish, which George Wash- door, from the rear.

I can hear some boys and girls saying: “It is time enough to learn about them when we. are grown up.” That is a mistaken idea.

Perhaps you read in The Washing- ton Post last week-.how President Hoover took these men to his Ssh- ing camp at Rapidan, Va., to talk over the running of the National Capital with them. Mow I think if a busy man like the President of the United States has time to think about the government of the City of Washington, the boys and girl who live in that piace should take time to think about it, toe, All of you, he matter how small or young, are potential parts of the government. Our officials represent us and we are the government and it is oug job to see that this city is run in the right way and to do our part by being good citizens.

Kina, thine aise aeakamiiiedamainaaiiee 10, , 1990, ae ee ee re 2 eee > ~ Getting the Mail in on Time. ! When Buddy arrived at the flying school in the summer he had an- nounced his desire to be a mail car- rier. He was from the West and often after flying lessons he could be found on a field nearby practicing with a Jariat and roping the cows which. were grazing peacefully. Or perhaps he would be chasing a bull, but most times the bull would be chasing him. His companions jollied him a great deal about this but Buddy took it all good naturedly. At last the day came when he was to fly the mail. He and a companion, each in a separate plane, were to take a part of the mail. The two were to fly together until they came to a certain point. Here they were to separate. One going north and the other south. The, mail was placed securely in each plane. The boys were wished good luck and sent off with a cheer. The planes raced across the field a short distance then rose into the air. Buddy began climbing to the sky at a terrific speed. Tom follow- ing more slowly. Having reached a safe altitude they circled over the field and parted off in a westernly direction. Nothing of any account happened until they had covered a considerable number of miles. One of Tom's wings suddenly folded. In a second the plane went spinning to the earth. Buddy slowed his plane-.not know- ing what to do while he watched his companion going nearer to the earth. But before he had time to think Tom's wing suddenly straightened itself. The plane did a loop and started climbing. When Tom was again flying smoothly Buddy asked him what his trouble was. Tom replied: “Just a little accident. My finger caught in a wire. When I tried to untangle it the wing folded up. I managed to get it out, without break- ing the wire, before it was too late.” “I thought you were done for,” re- plied Buddy, “you suré had me —— ing for awhile.” Tom just grinned. Not long after this Tom’s muster began to sputter but became normal in a moment. They went on for a mile or so. Buddy looked at his watch then nosed his plane within @ few feet of Tom’s. “Say, old fellow,” he shouted, “I have enough time to go with you a short distance, and get my mail in on time.” Tom noded that he under- stood. He had a worried look on his countenance. Buddy had only gone a few more miles with Tom when Tom's motor began to sputter again, a few sparks Tilew out and suddenly a wing burst into flames. Both boys were at loss for a. mo- ment as to what to do. The flames were beginning to spread rapidly. Buddy shouted to Tom to get the mail ready. Tom didn’t know what he meant, but he produced the mail bag. He looked toward Buddy’s plane and was surprised to find him whirl-, ing his larriat. Suddenly he let it go. It went straight as an arrow and set- tied over the steering wheel of the plane. “Fasten it around the mail,” Buddy Bhouted. Tom did so.

I am having a pleasant vacation. A few weeks ago I went on the Gen- eral Rucker to Fort Washington, to attend a party in celebration of the 155th anniversary of the Quartermas- ter Corps, one of the oldest branches of thé-Army. This department was organized in 1775, ome year before the Revolutionary War. The v is held ~_had a chicken supper. . the grounds is a natural amphithea- ter, where the long table was set. under +t trees The decorations were in the Quartermaster colors, yel- low and blue. Yellow napkins tied with blue ribbons. An orchestra played as the young ladies served the supper. We were a few minutes late in get- and Maj. Wilson, who : “As usual, some one up in Washington was slow in getting to the boat.” Everybody laughed. Then he said only one thing more was jacking to make the picnic complete, and that would be for some gentieman wearing white trousers to sit down in a cherry’pie. Well, that didn’t happen, but I thought the pic- nic was fine and compiete without it. After supper we climbed the hil] to the top of the fort to get a view from the lookout. It was worth while, for the sunset and river were beautiful. I had fun playing war on pales of hay with some soldiers. Iam having swimming, tennis and gym practice at the Y. M.C. A., and I enjoy it.. A few days ago I had a ride in a victoria which once be- longed to the White House. Presi- dents Cleveland, Roosevelt and .Taft use@’ it. President and Mrs. Wilson rode in it in the Armistice Day cele- bration parade. a I don’t play all of the time. I am selling a weekly magazine. Besides my commission I, have earned in pre- miums a fielder’s glove, a Spaulding bat, and a lea ball. I am now working for an tman kodak. I shall be pleased if you publish this letter.

Vacation Letter. Annapolis, Md., July 24, 1930. Dear Editor: I am visiting one of my aunts in Annapolis and am hav- ing a perfectly lovely time. Annapo- iis is such a quaint little town with all sorts of colonial relics. I am ataying right next door to the Harwood mansion and across the street. from the Chose home. They are too lovely places, aren’t they? Have you ever been here? If you haven't, you must certainly visit it some time. I could just wander around the Har- wood house all day and go poking in all the cubbyholes and closets. My girl friend and I found a chance to go inside while carpenters fixed its in- terior a Httle, which was crumbling away. We went down in the cellar and got lost, it was such am enormous place full of halls and side chambers. It was all spiderwebby and had a decaying smell. To tell the truth, we were hunting for an underground passage which so many people say there is there. The folks about town say that long, long ago, during the time of Lord Baltimore, the inhabitants of the Harwood home were bitter against those of the Chase home, just across the street. A young man of Chase was in love with a young girl across the street but he had no way of meet- ing her as their parents would always keep them apart. An underground passage was secretly dug beneath the street and the young couple would meet there. This is the story I have heard and also that when the tunnel was dis- covered by Mr. Chase he closed it on his side and the Harwoods on theif side, but still leaving a tunnel in be- tween Much money has been offered to any one who finds one of these entrances, as it may mean much teo- ward solving many mysteries. It is said that people living in the Har- wood house had suddenly disappeared many years ago and no one ever found trace of them. It is also thought that they lie dead in this tunnel. The “House of Mystery,” I call it, 60 no wonder Helen and I were eager to ex- plore the cellar. We took a candle and found our- selves walking along in @ narrow pas- sage and our hopes soared high! We felt rather spooky and ghosty think- sight. I walked in the lead, with Helen close behind me, and the candle held high. We talked in whispers—I don’t know why Suddenly I bumped my head on something tard and found myself up against the ending wall- Looking back to sce fow far we'd come I say-tnat it was abeut a 6-foot wide-Kreak in the wall where a fire ace had once been. That was the end of our adventure. Campbell Yall. the State House, Gov- ernor's Mansion and the Naval Acad- emy have all been looked over by us, but none held as much attraction as the mysterious Harwood hcuse. A crumbling mansion of gray stone on Prince George street seeme’ to ap- peal to us because it looks like it has ao much unusual history. We have been in the back yard visiting two graves, one for the man’s. head and ome for his body. . It seems he was beheaded. It is a beautiful yard. very big with lovely trees and grass. I've mever been in the house but am ‘airly itching to. go. All im all, I feel quite adventurous. Sincerely, ' HENRIETTE DARRIEULAT. \ TT Hh 4 Roses. By FACQUELINE BR SAFFELLE Age, 12 Years). MME.

One morning daddy got half-way to work and he turned around and came back. I thought that he had a fiat tire, byt he called us and said that he had forgotten to wave. But he had come all the way back just to wave to us. When I went- into the house i looked at the clock, it was 8 o'clock, Just when dad was sup- Posed to be at the office. BENEDICT.

Some are told by their physicians, some by friends. And for 22 years millions have been reading about Marmola. Those who starve to reduce, or who don’t reduce, form a small inority now. as come about since science dis- covered a great cause of excess fat. It lies in an under-active gland. All the world over, they who treat obesity now aim to. correct that cause. The method they use is embodied in Marmola prescription tablets. People have used them for 22 years—millions of boxes of them. They have told the results to others. So the changed conditions seen today are largely due to Marmola. A book in each box of Marmola gives the formula and explains the reasons for all results. When you gain new youth and beauty, new health and vigor, you know why. No abnormal exercise or diet is advised, ‘This modern method combats the cause. Marmola has for c any years held top place in this field. Anyone who is over-fat should test it, in justice to herself.
