made historic in maritime history a
place which Is barely on the map. Sew
eral members OF the crew are women
who rush to the iIfeboat house to assist
in the launching In answer to the warn

women. whose ages total PA years, in
variably are on hand.

years old Mrs. William Brown. wife of
the lifeboat coxswsin, and Mrs. James
Brown, wife Of the deputy coxswain.

Armstrong has not missed service

with the best OF the men.
On one occasion Mrs. Armstrong
tramped five miles along the storm
bound coast from Crcssell to Newbiggin
TO obtain rocket apparatus for the res
cue OF the crew OF a Swedish steamship.
She previously had helped to form n ljv-
ing chain to rescue come OF tho men
hurled from a swamped boat and was
almost exhausted before starting hoy
long tramp. Tho coast ls low and sandy
and footing Is difficult in the best of
weather. Her clothes were torn by tho
storm and on reaching the coast guard
station at Newblgein she was too ex-
haustcd to tell what she wanted. The
guardsmen realized her mission, how
ever, and hurried back the apparatus.
Volunteers arc never asked for they
make for the beach--bravo men and
women too. The children even endeavor
to lend a hand. There have been times
when the men. before swinging into the
boat. have wished all the people good
ty. Each time the women have given
cheer to keep uD tho spirits Of their
men.
Many times the Cresswcll llfsboat has
grounded on rock. under r. towering
sea which threatened 10 break and

stout pull has shot It ahead. Many
times a moments falterins might have
cost the lives of all hands. But at
Cresswell they take their seats In the
boat without a murmur. In perfect or

pitted against peril and they win--with

Vacationless Schools.
They Are Opposed by Adages and
the Experience of Parents.

To THE NEW York HERALD: For some
Of us certain things In this world have
been settled definitely and no amount OF
argument can lead US to a different con-
clusion. One of the things thus settled
work and no play makes Jack a dull
boy" That settles In my mind the va
cationless school proposal from the
childs viewpoint.
Now as to the teachers. In my
younger years lived In England and
often heard this axiom "A man can do
twelve months work in eleven months
by doing overwork sometimes but no
man can do twelve months work in
twelve months for he must have a holi-
day." I found that to be true too.
And now from the parents viewpoint.
Hero I will not dogmatizo but give my
own experience. have a daughter
graduate from our schools, a boy In high
school and three sons more in public
school. They one and all are ornaments
OF their school. But they all look for
ward TO vacation time. and their mother
and myself look upon this lively antici-
patton Of vacation as a good, healthy
sign. We should miss it II It were 9th.
erwise. In worldly things we are very
poor, yet the advocates of vacationiess
schools have not yet said anything to
convince us that the children should be
deprived of their vacations to hasten
the arrival Of the time when children
can join the ranks OF the wage earners
or be productive members OF society.
Nor have fhese advoca fas a. adyapoad onI,N

OLIVER DENTON PLAYS.

Oliver Denton. pianist. gave a recital
yesterday in Aeolian Hall. His program
contained Busonis arrangement of
Bach's ID minor toccata and fugue. Bee
thovens sonata. opus 81, No. 8 ; some
Chopin and also numbers by Rachnani-
non, Lisxt and others. Mr.. Denton has
been heard here frequently and his style
ID we'll known. He is pianist who
possesses much beauty OF tone and con-
siderable range OF technic. but whose
interpretations are characterized by
grace ana sentiment rather than by
breadth.
His Beethoven reading yesterday was
commendable for it's srnoothness, but IT
was not notably imaginative. He made
much OF an "Elegie Heroique' by Louis
Adgar Johns, but the composition had
not much to say for itself. The audi
ence was Of moderate dimensions, but it
was cordial In its approval.

doubled the locker fees; they are now
$3.50 for ono person and SO for two

respectively for lower loc.cer.
The Commissioner said that the In
creases would lessen the number OF ap-
plicants for licenses and so relieve the
congestion and crowded condition at the
lower links at Van Cortlandt Park. In
the first two days after the decision was
reached in January, 1922. there were
applications for 500 licenses at $40 a
person. More than 5000 licenses were
issued for 1921 and the authorities ex-
pect more than that number for 1922 at

The higher fees will not improve the

The Yelled Begun of Bhopal.

The young Prince of Wales, after
his tiger hunt in Nepal, his expert
ence in Calcutta, where Ghandist
disturbance took place at the time Of
his visit, his round OF reviews of
colorful Indian troops and inspections
of the ancient and modern military
splendors OF the Orient, must still
have found in the princely reception
accorded him by JEHAN Begun, the
yelled ruler of Bhopal, an incident Of
his Eastern trip of which he will re-
tain a vivid memory. The Begun of
Bhopal is the only woman Mohamme-
dan ruler of the British Empire; her
mother, Shah JEHAN Begun, was
much admired and highly honored by
the Princes great-grandmother, Queen
VICTORIA, for her abilities as ruler.
Nowhere else throughout the Princes
tour, it is said, was there such a
profusion of rich silks and gold en-
broidery, and nowhere else did there
seem such realization OF the Orien-
tai magnihcence conjured up by
Arabian Nights visions.
Bhopal is little mountain State of
central India founded about 200 years
ago by an Afghan adventurer, DosT
MoHAMsIED Khan. While he built
it up by force and grew immensely
wealthy doing it. the history Of the
State has all the engaging elements
that go to make up Oriental romance.
When there were no longer men fit
to rule the female descendants of
DosT MoHAMMED took over the,
crown.
In the middle of the last century
SEcoNDER Begun, the most distin-
guished of these women rulers, as
cended the throne. At the time Of
the great mutiny she saved the lives
OF many Europeans and rendered val
liable services to the Indian Govern
mcnt. For this her State was increased
by the addition of valuable territory
and she was highly eulogized by the
Viceroy in the presence of ruling ma
tive princes at the famous durbar OF
Jabalpoore. She was succeeded by
her daughter Shah JEHAN Begun, a
little autocrat--she was less than
five feet in height--who ruled her
family with more severity than she
did her people and who once i'm
prisoned her daughter for months for
being too forward in her love affairs
and confined the unfortunate royal
admirer for the same length OF time
in an iron cage hung at the gate OF
the fortress. It is this daughter,
JEHAN Begun, now married and the
mother of four children, who was the
hostess of the Prince of Wales at his
visit to her capital.
The women rulers Of Bhopal have
shown unusual skill in the control
of the mixed Moslem and Hindu pop
ulation OF the State. The people
take no small degree of pride In their
reigning house and have shown no
desire to replace IT by another which
would give them man as their
prince. It is very generally ac-
cepted that the women rulers OF
Bhopal have done more in their
reigns TO develop and improve their
state than did their predecessors for
100 years. The Prince has every
reason to look upon Bhopal as one
Of the most loyal of the British In
dian States. Not only did England
have the allegiance of SEcoNpER
Begun at the time of the mutiny but
other rulers Of the country were

Slang, Twang and Whine.

Inc contention OF correspondent
of THE New York HERALD that the
suppression Of ng in words ending
with those letters would tend to elm
mate that nasal pronunciation with
which Americans are reproached has
moved our friends to discuss the
question from various points OF view.
Some argue that the injury done by
mutilation of words affected would
more than counterbalance any eu-
phonic advantages the change would
effect. Others take the ground that
the ng is not responsible for nasal
sins of commission. Still others
seem to regard the proposed elision
as only adroit propaganda in the
campaign for phonetic spelling, which,
although not making much progress
of late, has not been abandoned.
The motive back of all the discus
sion clearly is desire for improve
ment in American speech. This is
commendable. The subject is an in
teresting one. 1t opens up wide fields
of speculation. Its ramifications
reach far back into English history,
for it is beyond controversy that the
nasal popularity Of speech which
has come to be regarded as distinc-
lively American is an importation
brought direct from England by our
forafathers.
1t is habit affected by large,
and in their day dominant, group Of
English OF the time Of that great
poet, JOHN MILTON. 1t is the straight,
lineal descendant Of one Of those
ungracious mannerisms which ex-
posed the Puritans of England to
ridicule at about the time when
CHARLES the First dragged OLIVER
CRoMwELI. and JOHN HAMPpEN off
ship and thus prevented them from
removing their Puritan activities
from Old to New England.
1t will take more than the dropping
of basketful of ngs from the end of
words to annul habit of speech as
deeply imbedded in American lin
guistic tradition as are the conse-
Grated twang and whine. They are
English, pure English in their origin,
but like some other things that have
come to this continent from England
they are not admirable.
Slang, twang and whine-these un-
doubtedly are the three disgraces Of
speech. At least they are the three
more conspicuously outstanding ones.
The slang is a mongrel of all racial
breeds. The twang and the whine
alone are our ours Of straight Eng
lish inheritance They were handed
down to us from our Puritan fore
fathers. But we need not too severely
rcproach the forefathers for 1t. Still
less need their descendants take
shame to themselves for having such
ancestors. People who saw nothing
of the godly but their uncouth Wis
ages and heard nothing from them
but their groans and whining hymns
might laugh at them," says MAcAULAY
concerning the Puritans. "But those
had little cause to laugh who encoun-
tered them in the hall of debate or on
the battlefield"
All of which does not make the
twang more melodious or its elimina-
tion by the ng or other route any the
less desirable.
