Pretty Legend of Diamond

Diamonds are the favored stones for
betrothal rings, says tradition, because
the man who discovered the art of cut
ting and polishing the diamond made a
fortune and was thus enabled to wed
the maiden of his choice. The man
was Louis de Berquem, native Of
Flanders, who was clerk to a jeweler
of Bruges in 1910. and who, so the
story goes, had re called to him In 6

tilted by cutting.

FIGHT IS FACED
FOR POST BY
M|SSDELL/
Democrats to Take Civil SerV-
ice Appointment Up in
Congress

Considerable opposition to the
confirmation of Miss Jessie Dell as
Civil Service Commissioner, to which
post President Coolidge appointed
her yesterday, is likely to, develop
in the Senate next December.
The new Civil Service Commits.
sioner took the oath Of office this
afternoon.
Miss Dell, who is appointed to
the commission as a Democrat, is
bitterly opposed by various Demo
cratic Senators and leaders on the
ground that she was not loyal to
the party policy during the militant
suffragist troubles of 1917, when the
White House was picketed.
This opposition will manifest itself
on the floor OF the Senate, as will
also that of Federal employees, by
whom she is regarded as a protege
Of Senator Smoot and spokesman
of his on classification issues.
The fight between various women
for appointment to the Civil Service
Commission, succeeding the lateMrs.
Helen H. Gardner, narrowed down
to the consideration of the names OF
Miss Del land Miss Ethaa M. Smith,
Of the National Women's Trade
Union League.
President Coolidge decided to give
Miss Dell a recess appointment TO
the post late yesterday afternoon.
Miss Dell is fifty years old and
came to Washington from Georgia
about twenty-five years ago, when
she entered the Government service.
She has been in the employ Of
the War apartment for most of
this period, but in 1920 was
dropped from the rolls because OF
reduction Of force.
Since that time she has been en-
ployed in a temporary capacity in
the department from time to time.
She lives at 1903 Nineteenth street
northwest.

daily paper through which it
breaches the doctrines of Com

that in a few years the Vatican

to commend this work and indi-
Vidually to lend us assistance

councils-both for the education OF
priests for the Eastern countries

of Russian refugees"
It was strongly indicated at to-
days meeting that this convention
will adopt aggressive methods by
which to increase and sustain mem
bership in the council. Reports
from the various diocesan bodies
showed that enthusiasm had fallen
away severely, accompanied by a
down grade trend in membership.
Objective Needed
Officials feel that the remedy for
this condition is the PRONUNCIATION
OF a central objective. which proba-
bly, will be decided upon at the
