Fog Delays Landing
OF Four Ships With
American Troops
Maj. Gen. George B. Dun.
can, of 82d Division, Ar
rives on the Sierra-Cun-
ard Liner Also Makes Port

Two transports OF six that were due
arrived yesterday and docked about
noon, the Sierra going to Hoboken and
the Cunard liner Valacia to the West
Sixteenth Street dock A heavy fog
delayed thousands of soldiers near port
on other ships.
Major General George B. Duncan, Of
the SD Division, was on the Sierra.
which came from Bordeaux, and with
him came 1.511 officers and men Of his
command Major General Duncan was
one of the first 10000 men to go over
seas, leaving this country as a colonel
of the 26th Infantry. He first served
as brigader general Of the 1st Di-
vision. When promoted to his present
rank he commanded the 77th Division
during its training period. He was
decorated with the Distinguished Ser
vice Medal and the Croix de Guerre.
Praise for Sergeant York
General Duncan denied rumors that
the exploits of Sergeant Alvin c. York
were exaggerated and said the more
York's case was investigated the more
astounding it appeared. York was
given the Distinguished Service Cross
for capturing 1872 prisoners, killing
twenty-five Germans and putting
thirty-two machine guns out of action.
On the Sierra was the bride of Cap
tain Roger Williams, aide to Major
General Duncan. She formerly was the
Countess de la Forest Divoune and is
20 years old. She is of American an
ceAtry, being descended from Colonel
Andrew Reid, an aide to General Will
lam Tecumseh Sherman. Her mother
was born in Philadelphia. Captain
Williams met his bride year ago.
They were married April "a.
Brigadier General Julian R. Lindsey,
Of the l64th Brigade. and Colonel Rob-
crt D. Walsh, Of the 163d Brigade,
were on board. The transport also
carried the division headquarters, the
division military police, eight officers
and 373 men of the 32Sth Infantry, one
officer and seventy,-six men of the
327th Infantry, and the 157th and 639th
Aero Squadrons.
American Elected Burgomaster
The Valacia had Major Pelham H.
Blossom, Of Cleveland, Ohio, who won
the Croix de Guerre, and Lieutenant
Chris Lewis, of 3o7 West Seventy
ninth Street, who formerly was with
the 10th Division. Captain Walter
Burgess and E. B. Gasen, both of Grand
Rapids, Mich, said the transports
brought the last Of the 32d Division
who are to return.
Captain Burgess, who was in the
Rhineland with the Army of Occupa-
ton, told how eager the Germans were
to please the Americana, and said that
in spite of his protest he was elected
chief burgomaster in the fall elections,
although he disregarded the office. He
said there was constant friction be-
tween the proletariat and returned
German officers and added that the
current rumors were that Germany and
Japan were forming an alliance
Companies X and M and the Medical
Detachment Of the 126th Infantry were
on the Valacia, as were the 10th Ma
chine Gun Battalion, part Of the 505th
Engineer Service Battalion and FIVE
casual companies.

More Lights Urged
In Give a Thought
To Broadway Drive
Changes in Transportation

Suggested in Way of I'm.
proving the Thoroughfare

The appeal several days ago to "give
a thought to Broadway" has brought
to the Broadway Association, the or.
ganization behind the movement to
improve the great thoroughfare, hun
dreds of suggestions for betterment
from citizens who repre- sent every pos
sible angle Of interest. The most gen
eral suggestion is for improved light
ing, facilities.
Edward M. Bassett, former Public
Service Commissioner, has suggested
the construction of large modern light
manufacturing units between Canal
Street and Madison Square, while
Henry Bruere, former City Chamber
lain, has urged that Broadway be
"beautified and devulg%ridge," and that
"some city planning be done for it,
Others who have contributed thoughts
on the White Way are Luke D. Staple
ton, former Supreme Court Justice
and s. G. Byrne, president of the Sea-
board National Bank.
Among the subjects covered in let
ters to the Broadway Association were
improved lighting, more convenient and
better transportation methods, beauti-
Tying the streets, buildings Of better
type, abolishing cheap cabarets and
keeping the amusement centre "wet.n
Many vote regarding the continual
repairs to Broadway pavements, and
one person suggested the building above
the street Of an elevated roadway for
light automobiles from Fifty ninth to
117th Street.
Here are some Of the thoughts on
lighting:
Lights on Broadway from Twenty
fourth to Ninetv-ffth Street"
Decent lighting system-as for ex-
ample, the cluster system used in
Baltimore"
Erect the most beautiful light tower
in the world in Times Square and dedi-
cate it to the soldiers and sailors"
Arrange with merchants below
Thirty fourth Street to have their
windows illuminated up to midnight to
attract people down as far as TWENTY
third Street."

SLANG TERM OF OLD ORIGIN
AppeIIation "Deadhead" First Came
Into Use When Dead City Of
Pompeii Was Flourishlng.

Did you ever stop and think why, II
you are so fortunate as to acquire a
free ticket to something you should
be called a deadhead? The reason for
this bit of slang dates way back to
the days of the anclents. In the ma,
tional museum in Naples there is q
case Of old theator tickets that the
Pompeiians didn't get chance to use
before their theater season was
brought to such an abrupt close by
the eruption of Vesuvius. They are
made in various shapes, each shape
showing which part of that particular
ticket will admit you. You could get
into the peanut gallery only when you
presented the little pigeons, and to
this day that gallery is called the pig
con loft in Italy. Then there were
little skulls modelled of ivory, and
these were used only by those who
were to be admitted free. Hence,
''deadhead."

FORD CONDEMNS MEN OF
POWER FOR LABOR VIEWS

Detroit, Mich. JAM 10.--Henry
Ford, automobile manufacturer, takes
to task "men of power" for regard
ing working men as factory fodder"
in an editorial under his own name in
his national weekly, the Dearborn In
dependent, which will appear tomor-
row.
Responsibility for the war is plac-
ed on "a bad condition everywhere"
individuals may have seized the oc-
casion for their own personal ends
but the world condition made it pos
sible for them to do so, writes Ford.
eve are piling up mountains of mu-
nitions, great mountains Of man-kill-
ing TOOLS" reads the editorial. "The
world was simply fostering with sell
fishness. Men of power were regard
ing workingmen as factory fodder
We thought society could remain
healthy with one part suffering and
the other part rolling luxury, We
thought system which stepped on
one man because he was poor, and
bowed before another because he was
rich, was going to last"

to the users at cost or it may make
arrangements with dealers whereby
the dealers will supply the individuals
at reduced rates.
When all the cards have been filled
out and filed alphabetically, the sur
vey committee will be in possession of
a complete card index of all the posi-
BILE garden lands in the community.
Meantime, the committee can receive
applications from those desiring gar
dens, and assign convenient plots as
soon as arrangements can be made
with the owners.
Thus it should be possible to pro-
vide with comparatively little diff
Guilty for the working of every foot
of available garden land in the COM
munity.
To insure maximum production
there should be cooperation in the
gardening itself. In every town may
be found retired farmers or other ex-
perienced vegetable growers, or q
county agricultural agent is available
Arrangements should be made to have
some such persons give supervision
and instructions as to selecting the
crops best suited to the soil and the
details of planting and cultivation. II
such supervision is not available it is
desirable to raise fund that may be
used to hire school garden super.
visor or other skilled gardener to de-
vote such time as may be needed tc
overseeing the work. In many cases
agricultural college students will
doubtless be willing to volunteer then
services.
Under supervision thus provided
the lots should be plowed, manureC
and made ready for seeding. Many
amateur gardeners do not know how
to make seed bed properly and such
supervision will prevent many disap
pointments. Where possible, the cost
of supervision should be paid out Of
general fund raised by the organi
cation in charge. If this is not prac
ticable the gardeners should pay it ii
proportion to the size of their plots.

tiles that are genuinely poor, and
think they are, are constantly claim
ing that they would like to have bct-,
| ter schools, but cannot afford them.
/ The obvious answer is that if a
community is poor it needs good
schools all the more. The investment
value of education is fundamental
issue. A poor community can not
afford not to have good schools.
But poverty excuse is likely to be
vulnerable at still more vital point.
Many communities think they are
poor when they are not. Columbia,
S. G., recently surveyed by the Bureau
of Education at the request of the
school authorities, turned out to be
not, as some of the citizens believed,
a poor city, but one of the twelve
richest cities Of its class in the Unit
ed States; fully able to pay better
salaries and introduce new subjects
and methods.
Missouri will do we'll to compare
their situation with that of others be-
fore they plead poverty.

1919 should be made the greatest
garden year in history. The schools
owe it to themselves as well as to the
starving people of the world to see
that during this year there is a gar

child in a garden has adequate instruc-

Undoubtedly the type of home that
has the greatest appeal to the sub

Great Advance Shown.
Since the beginning of this popu-
larlty, however, there has been a
great advance in bungalow designing.
One of the best of these latter de.
signs is shown in the illustration ac-
companying this article. This white
bungalow is new type in home archl-
lecture and is designed for those
whose lots are larger than are ordi-
narily found In the city. 1t might be
called the Dutch colonial type, and,
In its balanced simplicity and grace
of roof line, will be to the middle
West what the two-story Dutch colo,
NAL house is to the East.
The bungalow is 80 feet wide and
81 feet deep, while the sun porch,
sleeping porch and kitchen porch
which are ranged along the back, ex-
tend eight feet farther.
The floor plan was designed with
the idea of saving the steps of the
housekeeper. The living room is typ
lcal of a bungalow and has that spa
ciousness which makes this type of
home so popular. 1t is 221s feet long
and 121a feet wide. One Of its attrac.
tons is large open fireplace, with
bookcases on either side. Opening off
the living room toward the rear of
the house is the dining room. which is
large also. its dimensions being II by

the two windows is the buffet.

Weird Sun Legend of stonehenae.

In times of peace there was always
an excursion to Stonehenge on June
20 to see the sun rise on the follow
ing morning, for ON the 21st old Soils
first rays are supposed to strike the
great altar-stone, on "Friar's Heel"
This, tradition tells us, used to be
the signal for the sacrifice of human
victims in the days that are long gone
by, and it is easy, when there, to inn
ngine the early Druids, in their white
robes, onk-crowned and wearing the
mystic symbols round their necks,
gathering to make their offerings to
Bel, as they called the sun, and to
the serpent, the Beltine fires, glowing
over the great plain the while.
