ACTOR WRITES
PATRIOTIC SONG
One of America's Greatest Songs
Penned by English Actor in
Philadelphia.

The players of the mimic world who
spend their nights behind the footlights
help to mold public sentiment and
every once in a while one Of the players
steps out of the realm Of stageland into
the reality of everyday life and does
double service to humanity.
A notable instance was Thomas A.
Beckett, a brilliant young English actor.
who, while playing an engagement at the
Chestnut Street Theater in Philadelphia,
wrote Columbia, the Gem OF the
Ocean" This was in the year 1s43.
When asked at the time why he wrote
a song for America he said: II wish to
show my appreciation to all Americans.
and especially the citizens Of Philadel-
phia, for their splendid box ONCE sup
port OF my acting
Admitting that his song was voiced to
meet popular favor does not lessen its
popularity. This English hummer little
dreamed he had penned one OF the
Songs That Never Grow Old" He did
not know his art would be forgotten and
he would only be remembered by his
song. Yet such seems to be the case.
Columbia. the Gem of the Ocean" and
many other patriotic songs are in The
Herald's truly excellent collection. Read

mixed schools in order that they might
mingle with the boys at their frat
meetings and dances"
Principal Arthur Ramsay. of Fairmont
College, thought DR.. Johnson's words
might apply to such SCHOOLS as vassar,
Wellesley, Radclif, and Bfyn Mawr. 81
believe there is a great deal Of rubbish
in what he says" said Mr.. Ramsay.
college presidents have produced sta
tistics that confute Johnson"
Education discourages thoughtless
marriages commented the principal of
National Park Seminary.
I'm other words, graduates marry more
eugenically."
'I should certainly say do not believe
one word of Prof. Johnson" said the
principal of Bristol Seminary.
'I prefer not to discuss the matter at
ALL" said Mrs. H. B. Somervell. princi-
pal of Belcourt Seminary.
"a rather extravagant statement" said
the principal Of Martha Washington
Seminary.

NATIONS TO MEET HERE
IN CHILDRENS' INTEREST
Congress Has Invited All Powers to
Attend Annual Convention of
Mothers' Congress.

THE greatest gathering in history for
the welfare OF the child will assemble
here April 22-27 for the eighteenth annual
convention of the National Congress Of
Mothers"
Mrs. Frederick Schon. president OF the
congress, made this statement yesterday
just before her departure for her home
in Philadelphia
Through the State Department, Con-
gress has invited all foreign nations to
send representatives to Washington 80
said Mrs. Schoff. The governor of every
State in the Union has designated five DEL
egates TO represent his State. Parent
teacher organizations will send repre-
sentatives, and delegates will be present
from mothers clubs and other affiliated
bodies. We expect more than 500 dele
gates to assemble in the ballroom of the
Raleigh Hotel when the convention is
called to order. Eminent speakers from
all over the world will address the con-
vention"

Principal of One Washington School
Says Parents Don't Wish Sex
Hygiene Taught.

Courses in sex hygiene and euGencs
are tabooed with mothers Of girls in the
various private schools Of Washington,
Il the attitude of one set of mothers is a
criterion.
Mrs. S. n. Barker, principal of Chevy
Chase College and Seminary. told a
washington Herald reporter yesterday of
her unsuccessful efforts to instruct her
sixty-five girls along these lines, and said
that Oh account of parental objection she
had to abandon the plan.
Il addressed three propositions to each
mother" said Mrs. Barker. ''One was to
establish a course on sex hygiene, an
other a course on eugenics, and the third,
a course on first aid to nursing. About
70 per cent of mothers replied that they
did not want their daughters taught sex
hygiene or eugenics, but were glad to
have them taught first aid in nursing. /
formed a class on nursing and these girls
are deeply interested"
On this account Mrs. Barker said she
was in 4 position to comment at length
on the remarkable statement of Prof.
Roswell H. johnson, of the University OF
Pittsburgh. published in The Washington
Herald yesterday morning, severely ar
Taigning girls colleges as Zoe 10 eu-
genics. &c.
Il am inclined to think Prof. johnson
was not referring to private schools,
said Mrs Barker, but exclusively to COL
leges and universities"
Principals of most Washington semi
naries incline toward the belief that
Prof Johnson really did find some basis
of truth for his statement in the higher
co-educational schools. The modern
trend in dances is blamed for whatever
evil may have been discovered by the
professor.
Il think DR.. johnson got his basis from
the wrong source" said F. Menefee,
principal of Washington College The
tendency these days is for girls to seek

STATE FIGHTS FOR SUGAR DUTY
Louisiana DO Carry Case Against
New Tariff to Supreme Court.

Former Senator Joseph W. Bailey az
attorney for the State Of Louisiana win
offer a motion in the United States Su-
preme Court today for permission to file
a petition for an injunction against Sec
rotary Of the Treasury to prevent the
application OF the reduced rates on sugar
carried In the Underwood d-Simmons tariff
law The contention of the State is that
the Dinsley rates are still in effect.
The State owns sugar plantations. The
contention is the same as that made to
the Attorney General that the treaty
with Cuba prevents the repeal or change
of the Dingley sugar duties during the
life OF the convention. A treaty cannot
be repealed by act Of Congress, they as
sert, and therefore the Senate and House
were without authority to legislate on
the sugar duties.

FnIPIN0s DEMAND FREEDOM.
Resolutions Adopted Calling UpoI
Democrats to Keep Promise.

Immediate independence Of the Philip
pines is demanded in resolutions from
the Philippine Assembly made public here
yesterday by Manuel ouezon. Philippine
Delegate in Congress. The resolutions,
which call upon the Democratic admin
istration and Congress to live up to the
pledge contained in the Baltimore plat
form. were passed by the Philippine as
sembly Saturday. The text was cabled
TO Delegate Quezon. who will present the
resolutions - the House today.
The Filipinos are impatient over the
delay of the United States in granting
them independence. according to Dele
gate QueZon. The resolutions are de-
signed to remind the administration that
it is pledged to Philippine independence
and to expedite action in that direction.

ing.
The coal required for the many cook
ing ranges on a big battleship is con-
siderable, and it was sought to avoid
the necessity of using any coal ON those
vessels which are to burn oil exclusively
under their boilers. Investigation was
made of the comparative costs of oil,
coal, and electricity for cooking pur-
poses, and it was found that oil was
b. far the cheapest and in every way
satisfactory.
