The Chrysler Zoo Collection.

A rich addition to the Washington
Geological Park is insured by the sue
cess Of the SmithSonianChry eX-
pedition to Africa which landed yes
terday at Boston with boatload of
beasts and birds. These two thousand
or more specimens have been collect
ed in their native land and with great
difficulty transported to these shores.
They will be quarantined for period,
20 insure against the development OF
diseases which might spread here,
and will eventually be brought to this
city and placed in the Zoo for the
instruction and the entertainment of
the people.
This expedition was made possible
by the generosity of Walter t.
Chrysler. who, realizing the made
qu&cy of the funds for the supply OF
the personnel" of the Washington
Zoo, proposed jungle hunt. The
party was carefully organized, fully
equipped and was ably conducted by
DR.. William M. Mann. It's successful
return with practically all the speci-
mems alive and we'll is triumph Of
good administration.
Washington's Zoo has been the
growth of many years. 1t started with
a herd Of buffalo brought to this city
by the Smithsonian Institution in an
effort to preserve the species from ex-
tinction. The animals were corralled
south of the main building, and at
tracted so much attention that from
time to time other animals were sent
as donations from different parts OF
the country and from other lands.
Makeshift arrangements were made
for their accommodation. The Zoo
was a rather sorry affair in those
davs. but it was a beginning. When
Rock Creek Park was established the
southern end was set off for the care
Of the geological collection. From
time to time appropriations were
made for buildings, but at no time
ouate, The collection has been added
to through breeding and exchange
and by gifts. but comparatively little
money has been expended for the pur-
chase of rare specimens This Chrys-
Ter collection, as it should be called, is
the largest donation ever made and
the richest.
Much interest was early created by
the capture of a young giraffe, mas
much as the Washington collection
has never included one Of these ami
mails. The little folks Of Washington,
at the suggestion of The Star, have
named this newcomer, the winner of
the competition having been an
nounced only yesterday. But, sad to
relate, this young "camelopardelis"
died in captivity before shipment.
Rather than disappoint young Wash
ington, the director of the expedition
purchased two specimens from the
Sudanese government and brought
them over. without mentioning the
substitution. While there is some dis
appointment that the original Hi-Boy
is not coming to Washington, there is
solace in the fact that there will be
two giraffes at the Zoo instead Of
one.

Home rule on daylight saving, up
held by the Supreme Court of the
United States in a decision confirm
ing the right of Massachusetts to
establish the practice within its bor-
ders, seems to have the approval of
the public without any apparent effect
on the differences of opinion over the
desirability of changing the clocks.
The popular belief that "the Fed
eral Supreme Courts decision is sound
and just" is voiced by the Providence
Journal, which also declares that the
wholesome benefits of the daylight
saving scheme will continue to be en-
joyed wherever experience has con-
vinced the people of the common
sense of the plan and the added pleas
ure and convenience which it makes
possible. The irreconcilables may con-
tinue to fight the idea as a matter Of
principle" adds that paper, but the
prospect of an ultimate triumph is so
slight that they may as well subside. !"
"The decision indicates" according
to the New York Herald Tribune, that
a State may adjust it's hours to suit
itself, barring interference with agen-
cies under Federal control. 1t is a
vindication of home rule in the mat
ter of clocks. Massachusetts carried
it's point that the Federal Standard
time law is limited to interstate car
riers, Federal officials and depart
ments and acts performed under
Federal statutes and regulations.
With these exceptions. the Massachu-
setts law governs within the borders
of the State. 1t is not a case of
conflict of laws, but of separateness
of jurisdictions. Had the Supreme
Court upset the Massachusetts law,
the prospect of further daylight saw
ing anywhere in the country would
be dubious"
Taking it by and large" contends
the Worcester Telegram, more Mas
sachusetts people are benefited and
made happy by daylight saving than
are damaged by it. Majority rule is
not necessarily a sacred thing, but it
has been found q fairly safe principle
for American Government. 1t IS good
to know that the maJorlty'S daylight
saving is legal" While admitting that
'the farmer opposition has been ear
nest; that there is much to be said
in connection with the Inconvenience
which daylight saving lays upon the
agriculturists, the Telegram adds:
"Still one cannot help feeling-that is,
one of those city dwellers who see the
twilight base bail and tennis and the
strictly amateur gardening-cannOt
help feeling that the farmer could
make his methods fit in with daylight
saving rather more easily than the
majority urban population could get
along without it."
X X X
with every season of daylight saw
ing" remarks the Newark Evening
News, 1.-The method has gained friepds
in urban communities. People who
are confined within doors for long
hours want to get out in the sun and
play or work. Others who are in the
sun all day think they have had
enough of sunlight. 1t is too much
to hope that all those holding these
differing views can be brought TO
agreement, but the passage of time,
bringing realization of the benefits of
daylight saving and extending its
practice. will lessen the opposition

Growth of Textile
Industries Noted
From the Atlanta Journal.

From the Atlanta journal.
Rapid as Dixies growth in textile
Industries has been, it is not of a
mushroom nature, but springs from
deep and fertile soil. Such is the gist
of a survey made by two distinguish
ed authorities of Boston, Mass, and
presented at yesterdays session of
the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers, convened in Richmond, Va.
1t seems but yesterday that the
Northeast was the center, almost ex-
cluSiVely so, of cotton manufacturing
in America. Now the spindles North
and South are approximately equal in
number. But whereas Southern spin
dies run each an average of thirty-one
hundred hours a year, those in the
North make only about nineteen hun
dred hours. This shows" says the
Boston survey, that the South has
the bulk of the business so far as
pounds go; and the result of all the
factors is that when the country is
not consuming the product of all the
mills, at full capacity, the South will
get what is termed in power plant
parlance the base or steady load
while the North will get the peaks
Every one knows that periodical and
peak loads are not profitable to carry"
This does not imply, however, that
Northern and Southern mills must be
pitted each against the other in de.
structive competition. Rather, it sug-
gests their mutual opportunity for
profitable cooperation. New England.
by specializing on products which it
is particularly well fitted to turn out,
will continue to prosper. The South,
in making the most OF it's own nat
ural resources and economic advan-
tages, will score achievements from
which the common country Will bene-
fit. Certainly, there are general prob
lens that bear alike on the textile in
terests Of both regions, and for the So
luton of these there should be clear
understanding and cordial co-work-
ing. Touching the dangers of over
production, the report to which we
have referred remarks: "The Sec
tions cannot afford to go along inde-
pendently Of each other until they are
checked by meeting in glutted mar
ket." The true prospect, as seen from
our own point of the compass, is that
through a greater textile South we
shall have a greater textile Nation.

The place Of waffies in music is little

Inc place OF WaffieS In music Is little
understood.
Music Of the right sort has power

so-called rhythmic music (the new
fancy name for jazz cannot and does
not do.
One may admire good dance music
las the writer does) and still be will.
ing to say that the only real music
is the music of dreams.
Classical music is full Of such
themes. there is no necessity for
naming them here. The necessary
ingredients for dreams are:
1. The Mood.
2. The Music.
3. The Technique.
4. The interpretation.
One cannot, as Fritz Kreisler has
said. do his best in music If he is
hungry. Tales of starving genius in
the garret have their place, but it is
not good place, and never has been,
and has been accountable for much
bunk.
The hungry artist is not in the
best position to do his best as to
technique, the fundamental ability
without which proper Interpretation
cannot exist, nor can the hungry au.
ditor do much with what he hears,
from either a practical or an ethical
standpoint.
If one of the greatest violinists that
ever lived can put himself on record
as favoring a good meal before q con.
cert, it can scarcely be regarded as
musical heresy for one to recommend
bite to eat before attending one.

Some Of Washington's most avid
concert-goers invariably drop into q
restaurant Just before performance
and there, by means of waffles anG
coffee, put the inner man at ease.
The expansion of spirit which we
have called dreaming" comes about
not only through satisfaction of the
ear and the cultivation Of those high
er qualities known as spiritual, but
also in a more humble, but none the
less real, attention to the physical
needs.
One need not be ashamed, there
fore, if he eat solid food before put
ting himself in q position to listen tC

1t must not be forgotten, when one
goes to the concert, that he puts him
self in a position, also, from which
he cannot eXtricate himself without
much ado about nothing. Plainly put
it Is easier to remain where one is
than to climb over the unnecessarily
large knees of the remainder of the
persons in the row.
This is the best reason we know
for eating enough before one goes tc

Ford's New Regime
A Matter of Earning

An English manufacturer says Brit

He has explained that he has satisfied
himself that the current six-day out
put can be produced in five days. The
employees who increase their daily
output in this proportion will receive
as much as they have been getting. 1t
is all a question of earning. The men
will earn as much in five days as
they have earned in six if they in
crease their daily production.
