Lih'dbergh has Inspected the ship and especially two scout planes on board. He climbed into the cockpit of one of them and the smile of contentment on his face showed his pleasure over getting once more in contact with an airplane.
The young airman has spent much time with 'Yice Admiral Bur- rage discussing the possibility of regular trans-ocean airplane service.

Lindbergh refuses to discuss his future plaivs, but whatever they are they will deal with flying. For a week or two after his arrival his time will be taken up completely receiving honors from the American people. tX'hen the evasions and fetes are over he will be ready to settle down to work.

HOME BLOWN UP.
Providence, R. I., June 8.— Unnerved by a second dynamite move against him, Morris Billingkoff, known as “ Young Montreal,” Rhode Island pugilist, today cancelled his bout next Friday at Bayonne, N. J., with George Mack.

The piazza was blown Into the street, windows were shattered and the entire north end was shaken by the blast, but there were no casualties.
San Francisco, Calif., June 8.—■U'itli new entries announced every day for the San Francisco to Honolulu airplane flight, the dash across the Pacific to Hawaii, it was indicated today, will be reminiscent, in a way, of the rushes into the South African diamond districts or soine of the hectic scrambles for newly opened land reservations in this country.
Thirty aviators have unofficially entered the air dash, it was revealed today. Competition for the $50,- 000 prize, which is being raised in San Francisco, and which will he augmented by an additional $25 - 000 offered by James Dole, Hawaiian “ pineapple king,” has attracted aviators from all over the country.It is expected that the flight will de-jraijjg Peking, London and velop into a spectacular air race (siege at Shanghai have all that may never be duplicated.
"Word has been received here that a woman would be among those to make the dash across the Pacific?.She Is Miss Mildred Doran, 21- year-old Flint, Mich., school teacher who, It is reported will accompany Angle Pedlar, Michigan aviator. The monoplane in which they will make the flight is now being built at Lincoln, Neb., It is said.
The San Francisco flight committee declared they expected Pedlar and Miss Doran would hop off from Flint about June 15 in a non-stop flight to Sin Francisco.

The foreign office is using Us efforts to hold public indignation in check and is disregarding some more or les.s heated demands for an immediate declaration of war upon Poland.
Blames BritainThe Russian press blames Great
Britain for the attack and is far more bitter towards the British than towards the Polish iceople or the a.' sassin. Peace hangs upon the edige of a precipice and the “ assassin's hand was directed by another,” according to soma newspapers.

sharp note to the Polish minister here and declared that Russia will reserve the right to re-open the question of responsibility for the assassination as soon as detailed information is received.

Washington. June S.— France has made overtures to the I’ .'iitcd States as to the de- siraliility of negotiating a I'.'cr.ty between the two coun- iric:, definitely “ outlawing” war, ii was disclosed at the State Department today.
Through Ambassador Herrick at Pari.s, Foreign Minister Brland has addressed an informal inquiry to the State Department calculated to elict a reply as to whether the Washington government desires to discuss such a treaty. The suggestion was originally advanced by M. Briand in a speech some weeks ago.
While not desirous of appearing to reject such overtures, President Coolidge and Secretary of State Kellogg are said to consider such negotiations unnecessary in view of the fact there is now in existence between France and the United States the Bryan arbitration treaty which provides justiciable settlement for almost every conceivable dispute that might arise.
STATE’S NEW BOARD STARTS TOMORROW
Washington, June 8.— Federal investigation involving Charles A. Levine, who accompanied Clarence D. Chamberlin on his historic flight to Berlin, proceeded here today from two sources, the Post Office Department and the Department of Justice.
Postal officials are investigating Levine’s ca’-rying a packet of air mail from New York to Germany, while justice officials are continuing their study of Levine’s contractual relations with the War Department. There have been allegations of irregularities in some of Levine's salvage contracts with the War Department, out of which he is reputed to have made enormous profits.
Be}'ond assertin:, that his ; gents were investigating the salvage case. Attorney General Sergent had nothing to say today.
New’s Statement Postmaster General New', howev
er, said that Levine was unauthorized to carry air mail to Germany and Postmaster Fred Sealy, at Hempstead, Long Island, violated postal regulations in carrying the postal cancellation' stamp to Mitchell Field to cancel the stamps. These stamps are expected to have a collector's value of $1,000, being the first air mail stamps to cross the Atlantic._ Levina has been in frequent difficulties with the post office de- pr.itment, starting over a bid Levine’s company su’jinitted for the New York-Chicago air mail contract months ago. Although his bid X as the lowest submitted. Postmaster General New threw it out and awarded the contract to Colonel Paul Henderson’s company, after Levine was said 'tO have approached Henderson with a proposition to sell the contract. While not actlon- tible under the law. New considered tills to be “ sharp practice" and refused to accept Levine’s bid. The fact that Levine's relations with the War Departmen.t were also under investigation by the Department of Justice figured in the rejection.
A Legal QuestionWhether Levine’s connivance
with Postmaster Sealy to carry the first air mall to Europe is actionable under the law i; too, a question. According to postal authorities, there were more than tw’o hundred letter: in the packet, mostly addressed to Levine him-

BIG PLANE PLANT FOR CONNECTICUT
Berlin June 8— For the first time since he landed in Germany, Clarence Chamberlin revealed today that the Bellanca plane was lost over Europe during the last lap of the trans-ocean flight with both compasses out of order.
Chamberlin told the story of the great aerial adventure to Presideriit Hindenburg, who received Chamberlin and his companion, Charles A. Levine, in audience.
Ran Into Snow“ We ran into a beAvy snowstorm
over the ocean,” Chamberlin told the German president. “ ar»d tried to avoid it by rising above it. but it was hard to get up because of the heavy load of gasoline.
“ We didn’t get to Ireland, as we had expected, but came to Europe rather to the south of Ireland, over the English channel.
“ When we were over the continent we again hit a heavy storm and we tried to dodge it by zig-zagging fiorth and south. That is how we began to lose our bearings.
Saw Large City“ Towards dawn we saw a large
city and went down to fifteen feet above the ground to orient ourselves. It was Dortmuntd out we thought it w'as Bermerhaven. For that reason we flew considerably to the south and that Is why we missed Berlin and finally landed at Cottbus. Once we had lost our orientation it was impossible to pick up our direction because, though we had taken two compasses, both got out of order. One went out of commission c er tlie ocean and the other one after we were over the continent, so that we were finally without any compass at all and the skies were too hazy for us to find our way.”
GO TO THE BANQUETIN WORKING SUITS
Berlin. June 8.— Clarence D. Chamberlin and Charles A. Levine, the trans-Atlantic flyers, were in a predicament today owing to the fact that they had no baggage when they arrived in Berlin.
“ I have nothing except what is on ■ my back,” Chamberlin told International News Service. “ I guess I ought to go shopping but it is likely I will not have time and will have to go to the banquet tonight just as I am.”
As he spoke Chamberlin was dressed in his aviator’s jacket and trousers.----------------------------------------

AIRPLANES USED IN CHINESE WAR
Berlin, June 8.— Clarence D. Chamberlin and his flying companion, Charles .A.. Levine, who made a non-stop flight of 4,000 miles from New York to Germany, were received today by President "Von Hindenburg of the German republic at the presidential mmnsion.
Although the journey from the American embassy to the presidential palace is but a three-minute drive, the crowds made it impossible for the fliers to make much progress in Ambassador Schurman’s car.
The police held back huge throngs who insisted upon getting as close as possible to the aviators and shouting their throaty “ hocks.”
Broak Through Lines.At the entrance to the presiden
tial palace there was a crowd of 3,- 000 and at the approach of the two .Americans they broke through the lines holding up the ambassador’s car for several minuter
expected to entertain the fliers at a formal breakfast tomorrow morning, and on Friday they will be the guests of the City of Berlin at a reception at the city hall.
Honorary entertainments piled up so fast that there is danger of a conflict in dates. The American Club planned a dinner and dance for the visitors at the Adlon Hotel Friday night. Herr Wilhelm Koch, minister of transport in the Marx cabinet, sent out invitations for a dinner in their honor for the same evening. If both functions are held the Americans will divide their time between the two affairs.
Guests of Flyere.Officials of the Lufthansa Com
pany— Germany’s great commercial air transport enterprise— will entertain the aviators at a dinner Saturday evening.
In between these numerous honorary social event: the Americans will be sightseeing. Both expressed a desire to visit Potsdam and see the palace of the former kaiser.
In addition to the numerous congratulatory messages gifts of all kinds are being received at the embassy. The printed reports that both Chamberlin and Levine had expressed a preference for Pilsner beer led to numerous gifts of this beverage. It i: evident that the Americans will n t be thirsty during their visit to Germany.
The high interest of the German people in the flight and the men who made it was evidenced by the crowds which gathered close to the American embassy and which struggled to get a view of the Aihericana when they went abroad in the streets. They were cheered wherever they went. „
A Great Reception“ It was certainly a great recep
tion,” said Levine referring to the arrival of the Columbia at Tempel- liofer field late yesterday afternoon when 150,000 persons roared themselves hoarse with “ hochs:” and shouts of welcome. It was a sincere and whole-liearied w'elcotne and the Americans told Ambassador Schur- man that they were touched by the

.Airplanes UsedAirplanes attached to the Na
tionalist army participated, bombing railway stations and troop positions. The Natiornallst communique said, that the air attacks demoralized the Shantungites.
Large numbers of wounded are arriving at Hankow daily from Honan, indicating that severe fighting continues in that region. T'ne hospital situation at Hankow is critical due to the Interise heat and the lack of facilities to treat the wounded who are estimated at 12 , 000 .

I felicitations to the fliers and laud- I ed their achievemnt. j The two fliers were probably the • most informally dressed persons
ever received in presidential audience in Germany. Levine wore a striped business suit and Chamberlin was attired in a flying jacket and plus-fours, the same garb he had worn across the Atlantic.
President Hindenburg gave each of the filers his autographed photograph in a silver franifc.
To Stay a Week The length of the Americans’
stay here is problematical. It is certain, however, that they will remain here for a week; or. it they make trips beyond the city, they will return nere.
Mrs. Chamberlin and Mrs. Levine, wives of the air voyagers, are coming here to meet their husbands and it is possible that Mrs. E. C. Chamberlin, mother of the pilot, will come to ijieet her son in answer to his invitation transmitted over the traiis-.Atlantlc radio telephone ycsteiday.

Under a StrainThe Americans said * that the
strain of the reception upon their arrival was more tiring than that of the actual flight from New York. However, they forgot this in the bustle of getting ready to call upon the German president.
A crowd began to gather in the streets around the American embassy at dawn. Thousands stood on the sidewalks straining their eyes towards the embassy building to get a glimpse of the famous Americans.
Invited To AustriaAustrian Ambassador Felix
Frank invited Chamberlin anS Levine, in the name of the Austrian government, to vihit Vienna.
Before leaving the American embassy Chamberlin and Levine said they hoped to tour Europe.
” I am interested in commercial aviation and I wish to study it throughout Continental Europe.” said Chamberlin. “ I would like to visit Paris, Vienna, Rome and Lon- don. I have promised to go to London and hope to be able to do so.”

An unusually busy Tuesday trad ing evening last night hit the proposed shift of the mid-week “ open evening" of Manchester retail stores what is likely to prove a knock-out blow from which the movement is not liable to recover until autum n, If ever.
Announcement tha t the Cheney Bros, mills wmuld pay off all their help on Wednesday and Thursday had a marked effect yesterday in subduing agitation among the m erchants for a Friday trading night and a num ber of the leading business men conferred with by Secretary Gerge E. Rix of the Chamber of Commerce expressed themselves as believing th a t the best course for the store keepers to pursue would be to let matters stand as they have been until Labor day, at least, keeping a check on the condition of Tuesday night business meantime, so as to be in a better position to decide whether any change m ight be advisable later.
After last n ig h t’s business it was difficult today to find a dea ler of any sort w’ho was not inclined to think th a t the danger of loss of trade had been exaggerated.
Banks Take No Action.The banks have taken no action
yet as to shifting their business evening to Thursday and are not expected to do so if the merchants do not decide on a change.
It was pointed out today th a t of the four Tuesdays th a t have passed since the change in the Cheney paydays only the first was followed by any falling off in the evening trade. The second, when the silk workers received two weeks’ pay in one, w’as the biggest Tuesday evening in the retail stores, and especially among those concerns which do large installment businesses, in the history of the town. The third week Tuesday was up to average and last night business boomed.
Storekeepers are coming to the conclusion th a t the change in pay days is not going to have nearly as much effect as they had expected and tha t there is a t least no need of hurry. So it may be taken as fairly well settled that for this sum mer, and probably indefinitely, Manchester stores and Manchester banks will continue to keep the hours they have kept in the past.

laid Levine would have little difficulty in obtaining prices for them from collectors in years to come.
Levine's actions, not only in this Instance, but in liis relations with the W ar Department, formed the subject of a Cabinet disci sion yesterday. Although Cabinet members were disinclined to discuss the matter, it was evident th a t the discussion re lated to w hat recognition, if any, the government tvill give Levine for his par t in the Berlin flight. I t is no secret th a t Levine is not popular among offi- tials here.
Chamberlin, who piloted the Bel- lanca plane, is in no way involved lu these matfers. Officials from President Coolidge down have lothing but praise for his daring Ind skill in negotiating the epoch- 11 flight and he will receive all the iomage an admiring government Ian bestow.

Evidently dogs at the north end of the town are not on their job. A firje fa t woodchuck lives almost under their noses and as yet none of them has discovered the fact.
A few mornings ago, Director George H. W ashburn, of the Manchester Community Club, looked out the window and saw the woodchuck sitting on the front veranda of the “ White House.” When George rapped on the window pane, Mr. Woodchuck scampered down the steps and disappeared under the veranda.
Perhaps this is the same woodchuck th a t created so much excitem ent in Buckland about a year ago when he came onto the front steps a t the home of Louis L Grant and “ rapped" on the floor. At least Mr. Grant heard something strike the door and peered out a window to observe a woodchuck sitting there as calmly as if it were the mouth to his hole.

H ard luck seems to follow the footsteps of one Oscar Oakes, employe of L. T. Wood, ice, wood and coal dealer. His latest calamily is a broken toe which he suffered the other n ight a t his home in Andover.
The na tu re of his accident is somewhat a mystery. Oakes says he heard one of his children crying during the n ight and thought the child had fallen out of bed. As he hurried to the child’s room he says he stubbed his toe on a baby’s liigli- chalr, f rac turing the toe. Fellow workmen, however, declare that Oakes adm itted to them the stubbing of his toe d idn’t break it, but that it made him mad enough to kick the chair and the kick did the trick, for it landed on the bedpost. Anyhow Oakes has a broken toe and limps a bit as he goes about his daily work.
Some time ago, Oakes lost two fingers in an accident while sawing wood and severely In jured his back another time while a t work. Jinx, say his fellow workers.

Peter A. Baldwin of 552 Middle Turnpike, who lives oiiposite the Manchester Green school, appealed to Dog Warden Fred K rah for a sort of informal injunction against the possible seizure of a dog belonging to his son, George, which it was feared might get into difficulties for being without a license tag. Some person unknown, or at least unidentified, according to the suspicion of Mr. Baldwin, had thrice swiped new collars from the dog's neck with the dark purpose of getting the dog pinched as a vagrant, untagged and illegal beast.
There is a cat in that vicinity which the dog does not like. The dog chases the cat. P u tt ing this and tha t together, Mr. Baldwin draws Iris own coivilusions but make.s no charge. Perhaps the dog, which is a sm art dOg, unbuckles the collars himself. Perhaps the cat does it. Anyhow the dog w arden assured Mr. Baldwin th a t the dog would not be taken to the pound as a stray and unlicensed animal.
Legislation enacted by the general assembly a t is last session, changing the m arriage license laws, will go into effect on July 1. Town Clerk Samuel J. Turk ing ton received a copy of the new law today, Under the enactment, those who apply for m arr iage licenses after tha t date m ust wait five days before the license is Issued.
The present laws allow the contrac ting parties their license as soon as the s tatem ents contained there in are sworn to. This, of course, Is in the case of residents of the town, in which the license is granted.
The new law, however, provides for immediate issuance of the license in cases where m arriages must be performed at once. In order to take advantage of this clause the license must be passed on by the judge of probate.
Minors m ust have the consent of the judge of probate, and their parents or guardians, in writing. In the case of minors whose parents or guardians do not live in this country the consent of the judge of probate is sufficient. The law also states th a t no person or guardian, shall acquire any rights by m arriage in the property of any person who is a t the time of m arriage u n der the supervision of a conservator.
The new law has caused considerable discussion on the point that it makes no provision for the compulsory publication of applications for licenses. Publication Is not compulsory now and the new law does not change th a t situation any.
The law provides only for a longer wait between the time of application for the license and the time when the certificate is issued.

"A better opportunity was offered me and I presented my resignation as superintendent of highways under the public works committee of the City of Rockville and last night I presented my resi.gnation to the city council which was accepted,” was the remark made by Martin E. Pierson, in commenting upon his resignation last night.
Mr. Pierson, or as he is probably better known throughout the Slate, “ Senator Pierson of the Sixth,” is going to make his home in Rockville but he is going into other work. For many years he was in the construction business and now an opporunity has been offered and he is going back into that business again. The work in Rockville under his care will be carried out, he feels, as t^ell. He has a contract with the city that expires the latter ]iart of February, but with the opportunity that has offered .tself he feels that he is justified at this time.
He came to Rockville from Bristol a year and a half ago.

“ Do you .'ntend to live in Rockville?” lie was asked.
“ AA'ell just at present if you sav,- the number of men that I liave at work in and around my house you would think so and as far as I know at this time I shall continue to live here,” came his reply.
A person could not help out recognize that he was troubled. There was no flush of the face, but there was that tired appearing look that Indicated that the wheel had made the wrong turn and it was not himself that he was concerned about, but the faithful employees, fellow workers, many of them called him just plain “ Fred.”
“ I was not In accord with their methods and have not been,” was the only other remark that he would make concerning the situation. AVhen asked if there was a possibility of the mill reopening under a new manufacturing concern he would not say and when asked If the mill was also owned by the Belding-Hemingway Company he replied that it was.
He was asked about the story that has gained circulation that it was not until he was returning from his Ashing trip and had stopped off in Holyoke to visit the Skinner company officials that lie first learned of tlie change. He shot a swift glance as though asking liimself, “ How and how much does ho know?” but his only reply to the other questions that followed was that “ There have been many rumors and I do not wish to have them being printed as coining from me. I have «aid all that I care to say at this time. I felt that I should make known my feelings to the officers of the company and to the public and that I have already done, for the present I have nothing more to say. Come in some other time,” he remarked, “ and if there is anything further to announce or to tell I will be pleased to do so," were the parting words.

According to Building Inspector Edward C. Elliott. Jr.. there is considerable activity in the build- in,g line in Manchester at the present time. Seven dwellings have been started in town within I'le past month and a large numlier of local people are building garages now ttiat the weather is good. The only business places that are being constructed now are Clarence Barlow’s service station on Main .street and a shed for the Orford Soap company on Hilliard street.

nomic, business, engineering. So| that when the secretary of coin-j merce predicts, as he did at Little j Rock on hearing of the success of the Chamberlin flight, that transoceanic commercial aviation is only a few years off, the forecast naturally bears more weight than if it were made by the man in the street, under the influence of a momentary enthusiasm over the two j recent American adventures over | the Atlantic.
“ Cnamberiia and Lindbergh have proved,” says l • Hoover, “ that airplanes can be used practically f?r long distance commercial travel. It will be a matter of only a few years until planes will be making regular flights across the Atlantic and Pacific in commercial service.”
Now the Herald has been a little skeptical about trans-oceanic flying, either by plane or dirigible, being a matter of the near future, and the Hoover forecast was not the easiest of pronouncements to swallow; but we were doing a pretty fair job of getting it down when along came this from Orville M'right, daddy of the whole science of plane flying:

“ SPIESS MUSEU.M."The Herald hastens to make its
apologies to Mathias Spiess and School Superintendent Howes for touting for the proposed Children's
, museum at Hartford while entirely j overlooking the highly important
fact that Mr. Spiess had offered and 1 Mr. Howes accepted, in behalf of I the Hollister street school, the for- ' mer's collection of Indian relics as the nucleus of a children's museum right here in town.
It just happened that the writer of tlie editorial in yesterday's paper, lauding tli9 Hartford project, turned off that little piece in placid ignorance of Mr. Spiess’ communication announcing the establishment of the museum idea at the Hollister street school.
However, nothing was said in relation to the Hartford matter that does not apply with equal force to a children’s museum in Manchester. It is our firm belief that no other son of museum can be of as much value to any comniuuity, large or small, as one planned and conducted v\'ith a view to the interest an I instruction of the young people. It is probable that more real benefit is to be gained— and is gained— by a single visit to the Boston Children’s Museum by one boy or girl of grammar school age than results from a hundred visits by e.acli of a hundred adults to any otlier museum in tile cultural Hub of the Universe.
In all seriousness we can say that the gift of Mr. Spiess and the motive behind it are among the finest manifestations of intelligent public spirit that Manchester has ever e.x- perienced. The Manchester Children's Museum, unless the people ot the community prove to be Indifferent to their opportunities, tviil take its place in u very tew year.s as one of the outsiandiug assets of the town. It ought to be regularly incorporated and it would be a
• graceful thing, ■when it is, to gfve it the name “ Spiess Children's Museum of Manchester.”

Wherefore we have returned to our doubts about there being any regular plane service between New York and Paris or London for quite some little time yet.
SMARTY CARROLL.The mere fact that Earl Carroll
is known to some hundreds of BroadT\'ay addicts as a grinning “ good fellow” constitutes no reason why he should be exempt from the operation of the criminal law, but the Broadwayites do not seem to be able to get that simple truth through their more or less addled heads.
There is a settled conviction among New York flipmagilders like Carroll that nothing is ever meant, except money. Of course Carroll wouldn't have to serve his sentence for perjury before a United Status grand jury! Of course all that ■would be necessary would be to pit Broadway wits against the stodgy hicks of the Department of Justice; the result could not be in doubt. Carroll bad only to be sick— get some medico or other to say he was at the point of death— and the sentence would be called off.
However, after his fooling away several months malingering at Greenville, government doctors declare there is nothing at all tlia matter with CarroH save a delusion that the perjury law was never meant to apply to Broadway revue managers; the very much shocked Earl seems to be in a fair way to proceed to the serving of his time.
Tlie next result of his smart- aleckism is that be will be out of the Atlanta pen a good many weeks later, next year, than If he had gone right ahead and taken his medicine like anybody else in his situation.

THE WHITNEY WILL.TJie will of Payne Whitney, New
’ Y'ork multi-millionaire who di.v.l suddenly a few days ago, is another development of the tendency cf very rich Americans to recognize a certain responsibility toward that public which has made possible the growth of their fortunes. Mr. Whitney during his life had given many millions to important charities and educational Institutions, but he did not consider that his duty had ended there. Almost one-third of his huge estate, which may inventory up to three million dollars, he bequeathed to colleges, hospitals and other institutions devoted to the welfare of the race.
It was not so long a-go when the bestowal of such immense sums in such a way would have marked the testator as at least eccentric if not quite mad; when the theory ■R'idely held among the wealthy was that it was not only the right but the duty of the rich man to keep his fortune intact— and keep it in the family. Those occasional individual who entertained other ideas and disposed of large parts ot large estates to charitable organizations were rather looked on as robbers of
JIM HAM TALKS.Jim Ham Lewis, •whose pink
t\'hiskers provided for the United States Senate in long gone days such adornment as it knew never before or since, declares that the next Democratic national convention will abandon the two-thirds rule, in fact if not in form, provided A1 Smith at any point in the proceedings gets a majority ot the delegate votes.
Jim Ham, who senated from Illinois, has been a New Yorker for ye.ars. He could always tell a funny one. Perhaps he can new tell us it the Smith delegates, too, are ready to scuttle the veto power of one- third-plus-one provided some candidate other than Smith should happen to be the cliap to show a raa- jerity strength. To visual the New York Democrats calling the figlu off if somebody else, say McAdoo, should come out stronger than their man in the earlier stages is to imagine a situation worthy of Jim Ham’s most talented description.
New York, June 8.— In the two or three night clubs that seem to survive the general disaster which swept this hard-boiled industry during the winter, one of the secrets of success seems to be the Impolite game of “ roughhousin^” important people.
The most succesful and “ fastest” of the city’s remaining night playgrounds has as its star attraction a program of stunts bred of the slap-stick school. I have seen some of the nation’s most prominent men and women folk submit to astounding antics. ■\Vhat’s more they seem to like it, for more notables frequent this place than any other in Manhattan— and keep going back, again and again.
The other night a group of chorus girls appeared dressed as policemen. They carried stuffed “ billies” and went from table to table “ socking” the guests over the head, with the baldheads as their particular victims.
On this particular n;.ght I noticed among the guests Lord O’Shaughnessy, visiting Canadian; Samuel Untermyer. the famous traction lawyer, and any number of other prominent ones. When the antics reached their height three swallow-tailed old boys were dragged from their chairs to the dance hall while the girls played leapfrog over them.
During the course of the evening one of Manhattan’s leading judges, seeming to have sipped a bit of ” hip juice,” insisted on singing in a voice that was a bit off key, to say the least.
From somewhere in the room came the cry, “ Throw the bum out! ”
But of course they didn’t. Nor did tliey bother the young man who had made the crude suggestion.
Texas Guinan, who taught New Y'ork some such slap-stick tricks, has become one of the world’s best known resort proprietors as a result.
Recently one ot Chicago’s more- or-less celebrated gunmen settled do'wn in New York and fell in love with a Broadway chorine. The writer of a theatrical column heard about it and, in a rumor of the engagement, referred to the groom as “ a former Chicago hardware merchant.”
The calling cards of Manhattan bootleggers, by ' the -way, almost invariably read: “ dealers in hardware.”

■Washington. June S.— What arc we going to do witli our colonics?
This question i.s not cairiing many of us in this country to l!e awake nights, but it is one of tremendous Interest to the more than IJ.OUO.OOO persons outside th-’ United States over whom we have placed tlie American flag.
The Philippines. Alaska. Porto Rico, Sa.moa and the Virgin Islands all want a different form of government. Espcci'iliy do tliey wnnt '‘O elect t’u-’r ow.; t,overnors, although tlieir a.spirations range from t!n.i Filipino's desire for completD indt'- pendeuce to the Alaskan's ambition to be a citizen of a recognized, sovereign state of t’ae federal union
None of them i.s inactive in pressing claims for attention
Seek Uniform Coi'eriimeiit.A movement is now underway to
ask tlie Seventieth Congress for a con.stitutlonal amendment wliieli would accord the several territories and pos.sessions a uniform type of government wliich. wliile it would not immediately gram statehood to any of tliem would remove them from their present condition of political inferiority tinder wliicli they are governed by presitlential appointees with absolute power above that cf their legislatures.
If this movement takes definite shape, it will be backed liy resident comiiiis.sioners and delegat'^s of at least three “ colories’ ’—•Porio Rico, Alaska and Hawaii. It mig’m also be joined by the tw,j Filipino resident commissioners, who realize that independence for them is not an imminent possibility.
Felix Davila. Porto Rican coni- uiissioner and principal proponent ot such an amendment, holds ii- necessary to break into the coii- stitutim, so that this new type ot gocerumeiit. wliatever it might 'or called, would bs of a permaneut nature and nolj stibject to alteration at will by future congressis.
Divergencies of race, aspirations and qualifications, however, scr-ni lihcly to defeat tills enns'; lutional amendment plan. \ lu' ter chance is seen for Car:ir. Thoiiip.soii’s proposal cf a liir.'e '.i of in.- .ular affairs, which w.oLild I;.' responsilile only to the Prs.sidciil. .At the present time, Po'.'to Riew and t'.ie Piiilippiiies arc under jurisdiction of the War Depa’-t ment. Hawaii and .-Mask:! under the Interior Department .end the Virgin Islands, Guam and .o.amu.i under the Department of the Navy.
Hawaii, of the larger nicmlier.: of tlie group, seems tlie most contented of the lot and the least politically minded. Some ambition for statehood seems to be found in tiiese islands, but there principal interest lies in the maintenance of the sugar tariff.
Filiitino Dt-inandsThe Filipino legislature, elect
ed by the people, has risen to ne'.v fury against Governor - Geueial Leonard Wood since Wood proposed to sell her public utilities to private corporations. The legislature and Wood have been in violent disagreement for a long time. The Philippines, the only territoiy or possession seeking complete independence. would lie happy for
Governor General Leonard 'Wood, who oi)pose.s Independence for the I’hillppiiies.the present if they could get rid of Wood and elect their own governor.
A'irgiii Islanders have, been piK- hing. in their feeble way, a permanent organic act which would give them civil government instead of naval government.
Alaska, as anxious .is any to remain under tlie flag, has developed a strong sentiment for statehood. Her meager population— under Gv'.OOO— is her principal handi- c:i.j;. ana Dan Sutherland, her delegate to Congress, accuses Secretary of Commerce Hoover ot discriminatory tactics in fishery regulations v,-':ic!i discourage prospective sec- tler.s and everyone else up there except tils big canners.
Porto Rico wants to elect her own governor and develop her insular aspirations with a free hand. Her people seem to be afraid of t'ue big corpora'ions there and are anx eus to retain Governor Horace -M. Towner as long as tliey must iiavc an appointed governor, Ust they get someone much worse.
A bill will lie reintroduced In the next Congress providing for civil government in Samoa. Little lia.s lieen lieavd from tiny Guam, although her council proteste.l some time ago against a reported plan to annex her to the Philippines.
Have .Able DelegatesThe delegates and commission
ers of these territcuies and possessions in Washington are all .able men wlio have obtained a great deal for their people. For instance, when it was determined which men had introduced the most bills that p."..ssed the House in the last Congress, it was found that Sutherland of Alaska stood third— that this non-voting representative had sponsored moro successful bills than ■13 3 real congressmen!
Hills for territoria! and insu'ar aut'inomy have popped up at every session, but Congress has never taken the aspirations of these p( o;Vc very seriously. The obvious na3‘’ Ti i.s tliat no senator or congressman lias anything to gain politically by espousing such causes and the several who have fought rajlantly foi the little brown or black brethren have done so only o-ut of the goodness of their hearts, -t is a .n.aflei' of record that some even liave worked so iiard for them that they lost their seats through f.iilure to play enough’politic.s back home.
Subsequent dispatches of this se- rie.s will tell of the amliitions and troubles of the individual territories and possession.::. The problem of the Philippines will be considered first.

A good many cities have public improvement projects which they cannot carry to completion because of deadlocks with property owners.
Chambers of commerce fin one of their greatest services to their communities when they are the means for breaking down these deadlocks, seeing that both parties are satisfied on their respective claims, and givin'- the people the advantage of thfc,r efforts.
How the Johnston, Pa., Chamber of Commerce functioned in a case of this kind, giving the city its greatest public improvement in years, illustrates the point. By acting as mediator in a dispute between the city and a steel company, a street was vacated and a boule-
vard connecting the southern and northern ends of the city resulted.
This boulevard was a part of the Johnstown city plan. Both sides were deadlocked in a dispute regarding respective financial responsibility, the city maintaining that the steel company should pay a large part of the cost because the street would become the property of tlie company as the abutting property holder.
Tlie Chamber of Commerce offered its services as mediator and drafted the proposals which were finally accepted by both sides.
Under the terms of the agreement the city will obtain a new river wall, two concrete bridges and a 60-foot throughfare to replace a lO-foot street. "The total cost will be $900,000. half of which will be borne by the city-. Industries usually do their share when all the facts are known.

9No sanitary waxed jiaper covers the long loaves of French bread.
It still is hauled about the streets in little carts.This is Chapter 51 in a serie.s of
articles written by a former doughboy who is revisiting PTance as a corresiiondent for The Herald.
CHAPTER LIThe good peasant women of
France have not yet profited by the advice given them by the doughboys ten years ago. They still do the family washing in the cold water of the villa,ge troughs and in the neighborhood streams.
■' 'hen the American soldierssaw this in wartime they couldn't figure it out. They suggested washtubs and hot water as a quicker and more comfortable method. Mother back homewashed that way, hut the peasant women of France couldn't be taught. In ages gone by theirgrandmothers did the washing in troughs and streams, and so it must be done today. _
Legionnaires who have been here before will see that their suggestions have been without avail. The public water trough is
cthe village gossip place as well as : the common laundry. The peas- ! ant women could not live without ! it.I This is only one incidence in the picturesque little towns where j American advice has not been ac- I cepted. The peasants still lock their windows and pull down blinds so that no night air might get into the bedrooms.
They are a sturdy people, and they want to retain their health. Their delicious bread is not sanitarily sealed in wax paper, and the baker will not even wrap it. The milk wagons are still drawn through dusty streets with covers off the cans.
Yet the veterans will find that I somehow the familiar peasants, I are still igoing strong— with plenty of vin rouge for old friends who pay them a visit.

You can fill several pans or rinse dishes under running water without moving pans around the sink.
The single spout runs either hot or cold water or mixes hot and cold to give you “ tempered” water when you want it.
Spout swings out of the way when not in use.
The white china soap dish adds beauty and convenience and lifts off for easy cleaning.

THE ROMANCE OF AM ERICA: P. T. Barnum (24)SKETCHES BY BESSEY
SYNOPSIS BY BBAUCHBli
To the last, publicity was balm to Barnum. When he was in London with the circus, and then nearly 80, he was asked if he would permit his figure to be reproduced in wax. He sent the wax-worker samples of hisclothing so the likeness might be more real. 6-7
H * tripped over a rope in Madison Square Garden and oailed for the reporters, shouting that he had been seriously injured.

In November, 1890, Barnum, then 80, suffered brain congestion. He asked his wife to complete his autobiography. 6-7
Barnum died April 7 , 189\, leaving an estate of morel than four million dollars. Several of the newspaper obituaries he had helped to edit himself. A large box in the circus winter quarters at Bridgeport was found to contain copies of his autobiography for his oldest employes. (The End)Q1MT BY HSA tCTVISC. IWft

iHE old man paled. Vilak put a_ finger warningly to his lips.S His hand on his pistol, he steppeds noiselessly into the shadow of some J bushes. The cracliiing became= louder; something was comingi down the path they had just de-p scended. A moment later ai shadowy figure appeared on the op-E posite bank of the creek. Nunnally,1 unused to firearms, nervously fin-1 gered the trigger of his weapon.1 Vilak restrained him silently. Thep figure drew nearer. Cautiously it= began to step over the slipperyS creek stones.1 Suddenly Vilak thrust the old P man's pistol into its holster. “ It’sg Elise,’’ he said. He bounded froms his hiding place. Elise recoiled,g His arms shot out and seized her.E “By Jove!’’ he flashed with bitter1 Intensity. “ I could realiy be par-g doned for doing something des-M perate to you for this.”E She touched his hand with her M smooth fingers. “ I’m sorry if IE upset you. You know that. I see ^ now that it was foolish and reck-1 less. But what I said at the houseE vas true and I wasn't joking. I'mS not a child. And I'm not going to

I His eyes turned from her face to her dress, the same gown of yellow silk she had worn at her home.
^ Now the edges were torn andg muddy. “You came all the way ing that flimsy thing?”E She nodded. “ It I had takeni time to change I couldn’t have fol- 1 lowed you.”E “ My beautiful but foolish cousin,E you may congratulate yourself1 that tlie stars are obviously in yourg favor."s He took off boots, gloves, raln- E coat and gave them to her. “Putg these on. What I’ll do with yous now that you're Itere, Lord onlys knows. I'd send you bade at oncea only that it would probably be asE dangei-ous for you to go back aloneg as to come along '.vith me.

Suddenhj there arose from the wail, sinister, uncanny,
situation. In the future, if you choose to disobey me in the slightest particular, fond as I am of you. I’ll have to leave. I say that not because of sex prejudice, egotism or anything else. It's merely that your life and perhaps the lives of others are involved and I can't have everything imperiled by an injudicious act like this. I ’m speaking to you very pleasantly. But you know that my pleasantest words liave occasionally steel linings. Do you agree to do as I say?”
She nodded. "I agree. But with the reservation that I'm to be treated as an individual and not as a decoration. Is that also part of the bargain?”
"Agreed.” Vilak retraced his steps to the gate and again began picking the lock. Soon it clicked open. He raised the great steel bars inside, then searched a moment in his pockets. His eyes caught the silver chain about Elise’s nock. “ Since you're here, I might as well make you useful. Let me have that chain you're wearing. Good of you not to have beads or something of that sort that would not conduct electricity. Otherwise I would have to go to the trouble of searching about for a piece of wire. I want to make a connection between these two copper terminals, so that when we open the gate the current won't be broken and the alarm set off.”
When she had taken tlie chain from her neck, he fastened one end to the gate knob and the other to the iron post supporting it, then swung open the gate until the chain was taut. “All right. You can both crawl through now. Careful. Lucky none of us are fat. Let me know in a second if either of you hear or see the dog.”
hoiccls of the house a ’prolonged
When all three had entered, Vilak closed the gate once more and carefully relockcd it. Then leading the way a short distance toward the house, he halted again in a clump of low trees. ‘‘We’ll wait here,” he whispered.
For ten minutes they stood motionless, Vilak silently chewing betel nut, the old man and the girl
j fascinated, watching a mussurama, the Brazilian black snake, rising In
j the jungle grass as it killed and began to devour what in the moonlight appeared to be a jararaca, deadliest of Brazilian vipers.
Suddenly there arose from the bowels of the house a prolonged wail, a wail sinister, uncanny, which 10 th.e old man sounded as though it might have sprung from the throat of some unfortunate tortured on the medieval rack.
Then the wavering light of a candle appeared in one of the windows, the front door of the house opened, and Prentiss, clad In his grimy linens, appeared in the aperture. Stalking through the doorway, he hurried down a short path wliich led to a low water tower some feet behind the house and disappeared through the small door which led into it.
Vilak signaled the others to wait, then crept silently toward the tower. He listened intently to the archeologist moving within, then 1 took a position in the tangled i underbrush along the path the j other must use to return to the | house. j
! Shortly after, Prentiss reap- j ' pcaretl in the doorway. In his hand |' he was carrying a bright glisten- | ; ing object, apparently some sort of j ' glass container. Deftly Vilak | i tossed a loose vine acroes the path. ( I Prentiss came striding down. Eitaer |
the darkness or his haste would have sufficed to prevent his seeing the vine snare. His foot caught in the twisted fiber; his body Jerked violently; the glass object he was carrying shot from his hand and shattered upon the ground.
Muttering a curse, Prentiss disentangled his foot, looked at the broken glass, glanced about furtively, then returned to the tower. In a moment he came out once more, carrying another simUf.r glass container, and made his way Into the house.
Vllak hurried to the scene of the other’s misadventure. The liquid which had been In the container, a thick, whitish milky fiuid, was rapidly sinking Into the ground. He picked up a fragment of the glass and brought It to his nostrils. “Hum.” he muttered, then focusing his attention on the house saw a candle move past four windows. An Instant after a prolonged, uncanny wall again echoed Into the night. A choking, gurgling sound followed. Then silence. '
For a few moments Vllak stood Immobile, abstracted, only his hollow jaws moving as ,he chewed the gummy betel. The Oriental cast of his face became more marked; his bushy eyebrows appeared those of a Tartar; a thin film like the inner eyelid possessed by birds seemed to half shroud the pupils of the brilliant eyes beneath. Then he strode to the house and knocked loudly upon the door. The sound echoed hollowly through the Interior. the candle burning before one of the windows was swiftly snuffed out.
A (log began to bay fiercely. The baying became a fury. Vilak waited, then knocked a second time. Shuffling footsteps sounded on the floor inside. The footsteps came nearer, halted.
“Who’s there?” The voice was that of Prentiss, the snarling, cracked echo of a voice that once must have been deep and powerful.
“Mr. Davis, Miss Marberry’s attorney. I w’ant to talk to you.”
Vilak heard the other curse. "I don’t want a thing to do with her, you hear? Or anybody that has anything to do with her. If she comes around here again, I’ll . . . I’ll fix her for good.”
Vilak’s face hardened. “Will you l;a so good as to open that door, and talk to me sensibly?” he snapped.
There was a brief silence while the man inside seemed to hesitate. Then a bolt was shot, a lock grated, the door was flung open. Prentiss stood in the aperture. He was still wearing round his neck the uncomfortable high collar the chemist had noticed In the afternoon. In his trembling withered hand he was clutching a pistol. “I’ll open the door all right. I’ll open it,” he muttered. “ So you’re Miss Mar- berry’s attorney, eh? Come to try to drive me off my place, maybe? Well, try It. Try It.” Hla eyes glittered cruelly. "How the devil did you get In here without ringing my bell?”
“When you talk to me civilly I might answer you.” Vilak’s eyes were darting past him to the dimly lit interior.
“Then you’ll wait forever, you hear me?” His voice began to rise shrilly. “This is my property. It doesn’t belong to anyone but me. You can tell Miss Marberry that. If she ever comes around here again I’ll make her sorry she was born.”
His body was trembling with passion. “Get out now! Get out! Get out!”

0(/*^ALLENE SUMMER.Because he stood right up in
meeting ar<d said that the really only loved and desirable women were those who knew how to be playthings for men and who knew just when men w’anted playthings, Roland Pertwee. English author, is in hot water today. Thousands of madder-than-wet-hen females have pouDoed upon him, and the papers are full of their venom. “ When the discovery is made that woman is a human being with a purpose of her own in life,” one irate female wrote, “ Mr. Pertwee will be forced to stop looking for an impossible combination of a baby’s rattle, a frisky kitten and a darning and button-applying machine.”
Whether the girls are glad or mad Mr. Pertwee, who naturally knows the likes and dislikes of his own sex better than any woman could know them is right, methinks. Of course, it's maddening, but that doesn't alter facts as to what they want. The only feminine come-back is “ Try and get i t !”
Unniodern FaintHere’s wagering that if any wom
en was ever riled it was Mrs. MedlH McCormick, National Republican committeewoman from Illinois, daughter of the late U. S. Senator Mark Hannan, when she fainted while making a political .speech before some 800 women in New Y"ork. Perhaps not long before she fainted this perfect example of the modern feminist had razzed the maiden of 1900 who thought it seemly to faint upon slightest provocation. Perhaps she had razzed the male viewpoint ■which denies that a woman can stand everything a man can. No, one can think of few more embarrassing things than for a Ruth McCormick to faint in public.

Good HeaDIET OF CALF’S LIVER IS AID
By DR. .MORRIS FISHBELV Editor Jounial of the American Medical Association and of Hygela,
the Health Magazine
The treatment of permicioiis liver, as was suggested by Drs. Minot and Murphy, seems to have achieved general medical approval.
The method Itself Is so simple that it Is easily adopted and has quickly come into general use. On the other hand, many per.son.s do not particularly care for the taste of liver and revolt against too much of this substance fn the diet.
In order to accommodate these few tastes. Thelma- Tubbs and Elizab'^th Bellin:rcr, the dieticians of the Peter Bent Brigham hospital in Boston, have suggested the following recipes for modifications of liver for this purpose:
Idver juice: Score the raw liver and sear slightly in a pan for less r'lan a minute. Place the seared liver in a .square made of gauze (several folds) and squeeze out the juice. About 150 cc. of juice from !wo pounds of liver. Serve cold. Orange juice may be taken after It.
Broiled liver: Dash liver In hot ivater, remove the skin and broil juiil done, or pan broil in mineral HI. Five minutes are generally al- uDwed for cooking.
Scraped or sieved liver: Dashliver In hot trater and ramore tjiej
skin. Broil the liier 5 to 10 min-| utes until co<ikc-d through, and i scrape through sieve, or press through potato river.
Liver stuffed In green peppers or or tomatoes; Stuff si-?ved or finely chopped liver (cooked), -vs-hich has been moistened with tomato juice or broth, in the tomato juice or [ broth, in the tomato or green iiep- j per and bake. Onion may be added to the chopped liver for flavor. One pepper or tomato will hold 60 grams of liver.

Let me introduce Mr. Smith.You already know him? Well,
I’m not surprised at that. He’s such a good fellow. Everyone knows Mr. Smith. If you want a first-class recommendation, go to his lunch club at the corner any day. That’s where the boys meet and talk over business and bills and houses and babies. Oh, yes— men do talk about their babies more than women sometimes.

You might follow him through the day, asking anyone with whom hr cnuics in contact. John would make a good candidate for president.
Now then, Iiefore John gets the front door clo.sed behind him, slip in your foot and get Inside, too, unbeknown to him, of course.

No, she couldn't have a painter do the steps. House looks all right. What was she ahvays wanting to hear it up for? No, he wasn’t going to the Clarks— she knew he didn’ t like them.
Your nice John Smith is what they call a negativlstic. It Is often directed against the people we love best. It Is a mental defect of a special kind. If you are a negativis- tic, you are makin,g life hard for somebody. It should be overcome at once or your own happiness will be menaced.

.MRS. COOLIDGE’S PET RECIPE FOR (OFFER SOUFFLE
The First Lady of the Land is first in generosity as well as other tilings, it seems.
Recently a woman's club sent out an appeal to 150 famous folks asking for their favorite recipes for compilation into a cook book. I'rom the sale receipts a contribution was to be made to the club's building fund.
-Mr.s. Calvin Coolidge believes in women's clu’os. And she believes in women helping women. So she was one of the very first of the celebrities to respond. And this is her recipe, for coffee souffle:
Coolidge Coffee SouffleMix I ’ o cups coffee, 1 tablespoon
gelatine. 1-3 cup granulated sugar and cup milk.
Heat in a double boiler, add yolks of 3 eggs, slightly beaten and mixed "with 1-3 cup granulated sugar, and 14 teaspoonful salt.
Cook unrtil it thickens.Add the whites of the eggs, beat

Handicap Scores To Be Deposited In Box, Shook Up and Drawn In Pairs To Decide Winners.
Something entirely different from the general line of golf tournaments will be undertaken Saturday aftem.oon at the Manchester Country Club course. It will be a novelty affair pure and simple, but will be known as an IS-hole medal handicap twosome or foursome.
Good cards may be all in vain regardless of the handicaps for all the scores are to be put in a box, shook up, and drawn in pairs. The pairs having the lowest total will be declared the winner. Therefore it is easily seen that if a 7t> and a 99 are paired, the result will be anything but pleasing to the player with the low score. To others, it will be amusing, lest they too, receive a similar shock’ .
It is expected that about thirty- five players will enter the tournament, the last'^wo having been highly successful. The players may go over the course in twosome nr foursomes but the cards will be dropped into the fate-box individually.

TILDEN-JOHNSTON WILL TURN “ PRO” AFTER THIS SEASON
Bobby Jones FavoredTo Win National Open
At Least This Is Prediction Made By C. C. Pyle, Professional Promoter.
New York, June S.— YVilliam T. Tilden, 2nd, and William Johnston, America’s leading tennis amateurs, will turn professional after the close of the current season, C. C. Pyle, profe.ssional promoter, predicted yesterday in announcing that he planned to hold three “ pro” tournaments in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles in the fall. Pyle said Tilden had Informed him that he planned to “ clean up” the amateur field this season and then go out for the money. Johnston, he said, had expressed regret, throu,gh a representative that he had not joined the Lenglen troupe last year.
“ Johnston even offered to Join ns after our Madison Square Garden opening.” Pyle declared. ' ‘But his representative asked more money than we had offered Johnston liefore the opening and I thereupon informed him that he wa.s worth even less than I had offered liim afti'r we were through with tlie Garden matches.”
The ambition of Iiis career, Pyle intimated, was to match Tilden witli Vincent Kichards for the world’s “ iiro” title and to bring aliout another duel for the women’s title between Mile. Lenglen and -Mi.=:s Helen Wills.
” 1 liave litlle hope for the latter,” lie added. ’ ’Miss Wills seems determined to remain an amateur. However, now ttiat she has come liack from abroad, another Wills- Lenglen m.ateh is .almost demanded and the only waj’ it can bo brought alioiit is for kliss Wills to turn professional.”
The promoter declared that liis plan.s would come to a liead after the Dayis Cup challenge round ami the national sin,gles chani|iiou- .<lii;i laie in the sea.’ on. In addition lo Tilden, .lohnslon, Richard.'i, Howard Kin.sey, Harvey Snodgrass, Paul Feret. tlie French yontli; ami Jini Ander.son. the .Australian who recently ’ ’ turned.” Pyle experts to hi'ing the liest of (lie foreign professionals for his tournaments.

By .TI.MMY POWERSPitt.sburgh, June 8.— Oakmont
— ivhat stirring memories are re- 3’ ived at mention of it’s name!
Over this oak-studded, hilly battle-ground American sports history lias been made. Next week another avalanclio of bronze-faced, tight- lipped, stout-muscled athletes ■will de.scend to duel ane'w for the premier lionor of the sport— the U. S. open ,golf championship.
I'here will be Bobby Jones, the same genial smiling Bobby who tore Dirouali the final nine holes of Scioto’s bakeoven acres last summer to nose out lanky Joe Turnesa for tlie title.
It 3vas back In 1919 that the diminutive Bobby, standing on the threshold of fame found his path stymied by the rotund Davy Herron, wlio trimmed Jones neatly and then retired to learn the steel business and hasn't made much of a splash In the golf world since.
But this same Oakmont of the cruel, corrugated traps and the far flung distances was' fated to be the scene of Bobby’s successful defense of the amateur title in 1925. The crown he first tried on at Merlon fitted him more perfectly at Oakmont.
Oakmont is about as long as the law allows and about as hard as inland courses come. Offhand this writer cannot recall any layout with a more ivicked collection of traps. They actually leer at one in serried rows from tee to tee.
Bill Fownes is responsible for them. It was crafty Bill who originated the fiendish .system of rak- in.g the sand into deep concentric circles. Once your ball lodges in one of Diese miniature cliasms you might just as 3vell reach for a niblick and be content merely to escape. _ T!iere is no taking an iron and banging out a 150-yard recovery.
Those marcelled traps, mute evidence of man's inbnmart'ty to man, always stir up bitter controversy. Yon will hear it again this year.
’ ’They I'oduce star and dub to a common level,” unlucky pros assert.
“ When a man is trapped he should lose a stroke,” comes back the Fownes I'ctort.
Tlie Oakmont meeting will be rich in the clasii of colorful personalities. It w'ill lie worth many a 3vbiff of Pittsburgli smoke to 3vatch.
Not since biirlv Ted Ray. familiar liriar clenrlu'il between Iiis teeth, crasiu’il tiiroiigli at Iinvei'ness in 1 920. lias a i-rpresentative of Great Brit;iin won Die Fnited States oiien. No wonder Die Britons are coming with blood in their eyes. The tant- ly-!;eyed George Duncan, who wa' tes not a minute; the portly Arthur Havers, built like a brawn)’ blond grenadier: the ’ ’man witliout a eomitry,” Archie Compslon—-all will 1)0 massed to embattle onr home-bred favorites, Bobby Jomes, the ever dangerous Mhalter Hagen, Dig lean Joey Tnrnesa, wliose erratic finish robbed him of the great honor ia.' t sea.son: wee Bobby Crnicirslianic. wiio, although horn in Kdiiilnirg now claims America as his iiome and many otliers.
Of Die wliole lot, Bobby Jones, of cour.se. loolts tlie best. No man can win Die British open and the American sopen titles in the same )ear and not be considered a great golfer.
But international competition always adds zest to any sport and that is one big advantage Oakmont will have over Scioto. Ted Ray, George Duncan,, Audrey Boomer, present French and Belgian open champion; Charley 'Whitcombe, George Gadd and Fred Robson automatically become the common enemy of the Stars and Stripes.
Aside from Jones, who Is the outstanding favorite, America has
< a goodly battery of men, granting qualiflcatioa, of the like of Turnesa, Cruickshank, Farrell, Golden, Barnes, Macdonald Smith, Dlegel, Hagen, Sarazen, not to mention our amateurs, Gunn, Volght, Sweetser — all of them. It may quite serious ly be written, have displayed at some time or other, the necessary brand of golf required on a potential open champion.
New YorlJ, June 8.— The list of golfers who will compete In the National Open championship at Pittsburgh next week was completed yesterday. The 110 who survived contests In seventeen cities, together with the forty who were not required to qualify, will make up the field of 150 starters.

YANKEES INTRENCHED FIRMLY IN LEAD
By LK3 CONKLIN I. N. s. Correspondent
New York, jane ,8.— The New York Yankees were firmly intrenched In first place today with a lead of two games as a result of some terrific home run hitting yesterday In the first game of the "crucial’’ series with the Chicago White Sox. The score was four to one ai^ four of the five runs were homers. Babe Ruth getting his* eighteenth and Lou Gehrig his fourteenth and Clancy and Collins also hitting for the circuit.
Alphonse Thomas, sensational young White Sox hurler, came to town leading the league In pitching and boasting a winning streak of five straight, but he has never beaten the Yankees and the jinx reasserted itself.
Ruth Is now four days and three games ahead of his 1921 record.
Andy Hig)f 'w’alloped two homers as the sprightly Braves beat the Cardinals, twelve to five. The Beaneaters knocked Jimmy Ring out of the picture.
Hornsby and Terry hit homers but the bases were as bare as Mother Hubbard’s cupboard at the time and the Giants lost a nine to six slugfest to the Pirates.
Pltchej-s were knocked out of the box with great abandon as the Cubs took a see-saw contest from Brooklyh, seven to six.
The Reds stretched their great winning streak to three games as Jakle May subdued the Phillies, five to one.
A four run rally by Detroit In the ninth, featured by Gehrlnger’s homer with two on, Just fell short and the Tigers lost to the Red Sox, six to five.
The Browns got nineteen hits, including a blow which Pitcher Milt Gaston landed on a spectator’s Jaw for "riding’* him, but lost to the Athletics eleven to nine. The police put Qast^ out and five Philadelphia pitchers finally succeeded In putting the Browns out.
Washington got off at a six run lead against Cleveland but barely staggered to the wire with a ten to eight victory.

New York, June 8.— It was th« general understanding today thal Walter Hagen and the visiting British delegation will contrive to bear up bravely without too much ol each other’s society during the national open championship next week, following a general disagreement at the Ryder Cup matches at Worcester. This British versus America series Is popularly supposed to engender International good feeling but the story Is that it ended with several mashle niblicks being sunjc from off the green and none from the heels only because the boys managed to restrain themselves.
A Flare BackAccording to information avail
able today, the series resulted In a flare-back to the Hagen-Mltchell controversy of the last British golf season, it being claimed on that occasion that Hagen purposely was late in arriving for the match In order to discompose Abe. Later as he was leaving the country, Hagen aired a few views on the subject of British golf, Just by way of pouring oil on the troubled flames.
However, everything was supposed to be sereno again when the professions of both countries convened at Worcester for the international team matches. And then the fun began!
Discussion StartsTed Ray, the British captain, an
nounced his line up at an early moment. Hagen was pleased to defer his decision and, after he had reached it. wanted to make a few alterations. The British objected and a few harsh syllables were exchanged on the subject of sportsmanship. Hagen finally let the four- seme arrangement go, as read, but he still was a man with plenty of ideas and tendency to use some ol them.
A1 Watrous had declared himsell out of the series because of an injured finger and A1 Espinosa thereupon was nominated for one of the singles. But Watrous changed his mind, so Hagen changed his team, Espinosa changed his clothes and Ray changed his disposition.
The latter felt that somebody had slipped over what Is vulgarly known as a fast one on him and didn’t hesitate to say so. International fellowship was having a field day but calm finally prevailed once more and the match went on.
Not SatisfiedHowever, mutual recriminations
seemed to be the Aogue, for after their defeat, the British were openly critical of what they termed Hagen’s Jugglery of positions In the singles team. They were surprised that Bill Mehlhorn was named for the No. 2 spot instead of Joe Turnesa or John Olden and rather pointedly intimated that Hagen had connived to bring his strongest men against the weakest of the British.
It apparently didn’t occur to them that, if Hagen had done this, he must bring his weakest men against the strongest of the British. But then an international argument seldom makes good sense, anyhow.The whole trouble revolves around
the fact that America believes In the principle of substitutions in sport, first on the theory of sustained efllciency, and, second, to give many a chance to play instead of a few. England believes in rising or falling with its original resources, which probably is one of the reasons it rises so seldom.
There probably is much to be said on both sides but this fact won’t serve to make the British love Hagen for himself alone. '

(Read the Story, Then Color the Picture)
The helmit fit on Scouty’s head. Then Clowny laughed and loudly laid, “Oh, gee, but you look funny, (s it hard to draw your breath?” ‘My goodness no,” wee Scouty tried. “ It's very comfy here in- lide. " But Clov.ny thought if he A'ore that he'd sure be scared to leafh.
They looked around for old King Roar but he was out of sight once nore. Then Coppy turned to Scouty layinig, “ Go ahead and jump right n ths water, out of sight. You’ll treathe within that thing all right.! wonder if you’ll land upon the iea floor with a bump.”
■'Oh, shucks, I’ll try it,” Scouty aid. “ I have a protection for my lead and anyway I’ll start to swim vhen downward I am bound.” He hen jumped out. The leap was ash. He hit the water w-ith a plash, and very shortly he was landing on the ground.
At first it-filled him up with fear 0 see the fish come iwlmmijiK
near. But then he watched them turn about and promptly swim away. The helmet kept the water out and Scouty felt that he could shout because he liked the stunt so well. ’Twas really wondrous play.
He walked alone the streamlet floor, fell down and hopped right up once more. A lot of stones were in his path which made It rather tough. He kept his eyes wide open though, and cautiously went on, real slow. No road h.e’d ever walked on up on land was half as rough.
Then suddenly ’twas dark ahead, and Scouty saw a shadow spread not far away. He promptly stopped to wonder what 'twas for. The shadow drew much closer then and just Imagine— once again, wee Scouty stared, and sure enough, before him stood King Roar.
(A sword fish chases Scouty the next atorv.)

“It’s that scoundrel!” sheutod Lieutenant Moore. "He’s escaped!” The ruffian, having broken the rotten cords taken from, the old bedstead, had been hiding behind the hut. Desperation gave speed to his legs. Though hotly pursued, he reached the motor car in time to jump in, start the engine, and speed away. “I’ll pursue him in the plane!” cried Moore. "Turn the propeller for me!” »-7
The fleeing scoundrel sent the roadster up a long, steep hill. As he reached the top of
. the hill, he heard an airplane motor and saw the white plane coming.
As the fugitive drove madly over the hill, the pursuing plane
, zoomed down at him, causing him to duck his head. The roadster swerved from the road. oi»27 BY NtA stavict INC.

Be SURE You Have a GOOD Refrigerater
Nothing c»n equal Icb in a good refrigerator for keeping food fresh and retaining its flavor. But ice cannot do its best for you if you put it in a poor refrigerator—one that leaks air or is not well insulated, or is worn out with age. Don’t blame ice for the faults of your ice box.
It will pay you to get a new refrigerator if your old one is not right. Among the reliable makes, you can get c. very good refrigerator at moderate cost. Or, for a few dollars you can "ptan efficient little ice chest,
;e enough to take care of ......jy’s milk and also food fora sniall family. If you would like advice in selecting a good refrigerator, ask us.
