The White Siavers

The late George w Vanderbilt was

had little sympathy with the hypo-
critical white slave" movement that
publishers and impresarios and film
firms have been fostering for tho
sake Of gain.
MIR. Vanderbilt, after one of his rare
visits to the theater, said to a Wash

FOOD TO SICK JAY
Remarkable Story Of Phlanthrop'a
Squirrel That II Is Claimed IS
Absolute Truth.

An intelligent and reliable lady OF
this city tells US this story, says 'hH
Ohio State Journal of Columbus. IN
her back yard, in the chicken depart
ment, is a little receptacle where sAo
throws scraps from the table lor the
chickens to feed on. A squirrel also
has the habit of visiting the place
and helping himself. One day she
saw the squirrel carry away scrap
of bread or vegetable and climb on an
adjoining tree. in which sat 4 jay,
bird. which she noticed had been very
quiet ard morose for some time, as II
sick The squirrel ran out on the
limb where the bird sat and, ilndiHs
a little fork or crotch of the limb close
to the bird, deposited the morsel there
and patted it down SO it wouldn't tail.
Then he scampered away. At first
the jay seemed to disdain it. but pres
entity it approached the morsel and
made quite a lunch Off it.
Soon the bird left the tree and
perched itself in another, and there II
sat like bunch OF feathers. Without
a hutter or buster for some time,
when the squirrel was seen making
its way up the tree with another NOR
sci in its mouth, which it carefully
laid on the limb within reach Of the
bird when he hurriediy left again,
doubtless thinking his presence might
prevent the jay from eating. But pres
entity the bird nibbled at the repast,
and then few away to some farther
tree whore it would not be an object
of so much sympathy. The jay is a
proud bird and doubtless objected 10
charity, but the squirrel was daisy

fidence in Japan's attitude was in
terpreted as meaning that the admin

forts today to communicate its ulti-
matum to Germany through the State
Department here, the japanese en-
bassy at London and Japan's lega-

IL is stated at the Japanese embassy
here. II was asserted that Ambassa-

tary Of State Bryan to see that the
ultimatum reaches Berlin. The en-
bassy was not advised whether the
ultimatum would be sent to Ambassa-
dor Gerard and then be transmitted
TO the Japanese charge in Berlin OF
whether it would be sent direct from
Washington to the charge. Attache
Saito said the Japanese ambassador
to Germany left Berlin just before
