Sir Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice, the
British AMBASSADOR - whom Mon
tague Glass refers 10 as Sir String
Beans-has an astonishing memory.
If you had told him something 10
years ago, he could respeat it today
almost word for word. He might
not be able 10 recall who you were.
but once he got you identified he
would recall everything you talked
about. If he reads a poem he has
il committed 10 memory without
reading il through again. And hav-
ing once learned il, the thing stays
with him. He may not think OF the
poem again for years, but when he
does he can still repeat it.
Here is a letter received the other
day by Congressman Carter OF Mas
sachusetts from a constituent, who
one gathers, was interested some
what in matters relating 10 the sub
ject of hens

Panama Isthmus Rising

The Panama Canal will not be swsl-
lowed Up by an earthquake in the future,
and the troublesome slides now being en-
countered eventually will be conquered.
This is the opinion OF Donald F. MacDon-
aid. former canal Geo!ogist. nov connect
ed with the Federal Bureau OF Mines.
The results Of his studies on the isthmus
are embodied in an official report 70 the
bureau.
While through seismic disturbances
the earth's crust on the whole isthmus Is
rising at the rate Of three feet every
hundred years. this will only mean a lit
tie additional expense in dredging the big
waterway, Mr Macdonald SAYS. Tbs
cause OF the rising. he declares Is the
sinking Of the ocean bottom outside the
isthmian shore waters
Discussing the slides. Mr.. Macdonald
states that in many cases the Immediate
cause was the oversteepness and height
Of the slopes, the blasting and other work
attributable only to man. He adds that
the geologic conditions were not sum
ciently considered in the first plans for,
digging the Culebrs Cut
Recent reports that the Gatun rocks
would in time soften into mud. when
Gatun Lake filled. and thus the locks and
dam would sink, have not the slightest
foundation on geologic data. declares Mr.,
Ma cdOnald.

TENTH STORY.
FIRST DAY.

Senator Mason, tor more years THAN
most people cared to remember, had dtheld
the thriving little upstate city Of Ma
sonburg in his vest pocket.
He was the citys richest man, the
countys political boss and its leading
corporation lawyer. Though a decade had
passed. since his single term in the SEN
ate. he stin bore the proud courtesy
title Of senator" In MasonDurg and in
SOmers county. his will was supreme.
His ancestors had founded and named
his home city; and he ruled that city
as he chose.
And now, after a quarter century of
such unassailed czardom as only a small
city magnate can exercise, his sway W.
protested.
II was not a fellow millionaire or an
other politician who challenged his rule.
That would have been easier to bear. No,
his enemy was no greater parsonage than
Stephen Fletcher. owner and editor of
the local newspaper.
Fletcher had recently begun a cam
paign of news stories and editorials
attacking the Senator in person. and
his financial and political methods and
his sources of wealth. 1t was very
irritating. Doubly so, because all that
Fletcher said about Mason was true.
Moreover, even the most tactful Of the
Senator'S emissaries had wholly failed to
buy on the editor or to scare him into
silence.
The attacks continued, and grew more
and more virulent. People were be-
ginning TO eye Mason askance. Papers
In other cities were printing some of the
more spicy Of Fletcher's statements.
Little by little, Senator Mason had
worked himself into a homicidal rage
against this foe who would neither be
bribed nor blufred into submission. The
climax came one day when, opening his
morning paper. The Masonburg Daily
Appeal" Mason read these two-column
headlines on the front page:
