After the game, in inc dressing room, last night, Williams asked Us 10 plead with the fans in the future whenever there is fight on the floor, 10 let the players settle it among themselves. It is an unwrit- ten law in roller polo that anything that happens on the floor is settled there and nothing more is heard about it when the game is oyer Neither Williams nor Jean carried their fight eff the floor.
 Fans, in the heat of excitement are liable 10 do lasting damage to player. This might satisfy some. but 1t certainly disgusts many others. Except for a few wordy arguments. there were no fights among the spec tators last night.
 The subject of these fights will probably be discussed at a meeting of the managers to be held in this city Friday afternoon. There is a situation that demands the attention of the league officials Drastic fines. after cool and calm investigation. should be assessed against the play TT who starts tho arguments.

Talks To 66@ < 8 &1Ezz Parents
TAKING SIDES

By Alice JudsOn Pcdin
 Jessie came into the house digging her fingers into her eyes and so"- ping violently. 'They wouldn't let me play with them They said, Co way; we don't want you I wanrcd to play so nicely. but they said, Go hou'e: We don't want you in our glme,' They're mean old things"
 "Novc~ yrJ mind, sweetheart, 't those horri1 little Tompkinses don't want you to play with them. You can have just as good a time right here You play with mother and little sister in your own back yard. Just don't you care - there - thcrc-''
 And what really did happen down the street? The truth was that Jes- sic, who rules at home, tried 10 rue the little Tompkinses. They were playing house on the fronr iaWa under u e syrluga bushes and invit- ed Jessie to join them.
 ImmeGiate'y she began telling them their game was no good and that it would be much more fun to play school on the porch steps. But the Tompkinses were quite n2ppT playing house under the syringa bushes and they were not going to change. They told her so. and. when she still ins,sted. taey quite properly told her to go home.
 Investigate your children's quaN . rcls. However much you naturally Sympathize with him, non't assume that your child is right. Don't, be- cause you love him, let him fe> himself to be the injured party when in reality he has only re- ccivcd such treatment as he has brought upon himself.
 Unless you can find out what act- ually happened It is better not to take sides a. all. Remember that sooner or later your child will hay" to learn 10 fight his own battles not only with perfectly nice little Tomp- iinseS, but with all the mean saoOs and rough hoodlums he is bound to meet in the course of his growing up.

hol is mcthyl alcohol in contrast to
 wine or beer, which is grain or ethyl alcohol.
 In 1920 a method was found
 for removing the odor from woou
 alcohol which had formerly been
 used only in the manufacture or shellac and similar preparations
 It was then put on the market and began to be advertised as ! substitute for grain alcohol in
 the making of bay rum, violet Wa
 ter and similar preparations. ] The coming of prohibition in duced many persons with q crav-
 ing for alcohol to drink wood al
 cohol when they could not get
 any other.
 The appearance of numerous 1 CTS. makers of shcllac and felt hat
 workers finally made the majority
 of people realize that wood aico- hol is dangerous. In addition to i blindness, th"re may he headache
 vomiting, severe pain, blueness. l shortness Of breath and convul-
 sions following the taking of wood alcohol
 This is not however, the only
 substance that can produce bltnG- , nesc. Some people are sensitive
 to tooacco and may become blind as tfe result of smoking TOO
 much. Usually dullncss of vis- | ion with loss of the muscle
 sense are the first symptoms ob | served. Tke eye will fatigue cas- fly and tfere may be headache. Apparently 20 cigarots a day is | the limit of safety for most men and anything over this may pro l duce the eye symptoms that have | been mentioned. such symptoms | do not occur with q moderate use l of cigars or Cigarets.

 Edith Arrives
 She was a true prophet. When we went 10 our rooms to Gress for the dinner everything in the livlng room was in readiness except the candles. I even had dispatched Fur nell for some emergency candles to be used if the ones Edith Ead ordered did not arrive Tn time They were not the shade 1 wanted, but at least they did not clasn with my color scheme. Fortified with them and with Purlell's assurance that he could purchase roses at the last minute, l gave my whole attention

For a long moment I hesi- tated over my jewei case. my hand lowering over the exquisite pendant of jade, the most elaborate gift Dicky ever had given me. With the remembrance of that other necH:acc of imitation jade at the time he hal camouflaged his gift to Edith Fair fax, l drew lack my hand, renew ing my determination never to wear either of them. Then my mood changed. I would not battle for my husband with Edith Fairfax, but I would not deliberately give her the advantages in her way. knew in tuitively that Dicky would be pleased if [ put on his gift with which 1t originally had been worn. and as I fastened it around III, neck my pulses leaped involuntarily
 When Lillian turned from her mirror she took a step forward with shining eyes

 You're a picture yourself" said slyly, "in that black lace over the gold slip and your amber beads"
 Thank you" she grinned just as Purnells knock sounded on the door
 "The flowers and o;ner thing+ are all ready for you" he said even as the telephone shrilled be- hind me and Lillian answered it.
 "Ask her to come up." she said, and hanging up the receiver, made a dash for the bedroom.
 "It's Ede.' she said, Here. get on your apron and get busy with the decorations. I'll attend to darling Edith"

 Hurriedly I explained by dilemma to Purnell, the colored bell boy 0, whom Lillian had said, There Is nothing he cant and won't Go," anu he promptly proceeded to live up to her encomiums.
 AS l understand it. he said when I had finished, the floral decorations have not arrived and when they do you wish me 10 un pack them and lay them out so that it will take but a few minutes tu put them in their various recepta- cles."
 l took firm grip upon my risi- bles and nodded, while Purnell, with an appraising eye, looked around .he small trunk room into which I had taken him.
 Will you need this room for anything else tonight?" he asked.
 No"
 Then this will do very nlceiy. . will put table in here on which ] can lay the blossoms, and hay, some pitchers of water ready In which I can place them. I am off duty at five o'clock and then I Will come directly up here. If you could show me the different receptacles in which you wish to place tnv flowers, and about how many in each and the quantity of green, I could have them all laid ready to your hand"
 ''They are not ready yet" I replied, but when you come at five o'clock I will have everything ready for you. But if they should not come at ala friend ordered them for me and I do not know the name of the florist-''
 T think l can get whatever yo,. wish,' he said quietly, If I just know the color. Perhaps you have a bit of cloth or ribbon of the shade you desire which I could match.
 My tensed nerves settled into ease. There was a sureness about the ludicrouSly ceremonious little man which gave me the precious assurance that no matter what hap pened Edith Fairfax should not gloat over any discontinue of mine.
 Yes I have if the flowers 60 not arrive"

 to the edge of the big rock, where
 she could look down into the wa ter. It wasn't long before she glid- ed into the water again and once
 more she came up with trout, which she proceeded to swallow in the same manner that she hau swallowed the f rst one.
 It suddenly popped into Peters
 head that here might be one cause cf the scarcity of fish in the Laugh ing Brook. Already Mrs. Water- snake had taken two while Peter had b>en watching her. If there
 were many of her kind up and down the Laughing Brook it was
 no wonder that the fish were get ting scarce. ''lt seems to me" thought Peter that I have heard that Watersnake families are very 1 large families. If that is so, it must
 take lot of fish to feed the young snakes wheD they get big enough
 to take fish, And because they are seluom sCeo, these snakes could get

Peter Rabbit was sitting near the Laughing Brook. lit was hdcen under a fern. IL was just the sort Of place in which Peter likes to sit He could see any one who might come along, yet was not himself likely to be seen. It is by sitting in such places that Peter has learned so much,
 Now, just beyond Peter was q pool in the Laughing Brook. IL was d favorite pool of trout. Many a nice trout had Farmer Browns Boy taken from that pool. Many a nice trout had Billy Mink and Lit tie Joe Otter caught there. And many a school of little trout and minnows had Peter himself seen Tn the clear water of that pool
 Peter was thinking of the grum- bling he had heard on the part of various fishermen who were in the habit of fishing in the Laughing Brook. Buster Bear was one, Billy Mink was another Rattles the kingfisher was third and there was Longlegs the Night Heron. All had been complaining that some one had taken most of the fish from the Laughing Brook. But who it was no one seemed to know.
 At one side of the pool near which Peter sat was a great flat rock. As Peter looked over at it he saw head appear on the farther side and then there glided up over the edge of that rock one of the biggest watersnakes ,'eter had ever seen. It was Mrs. Watersnake. She coiled up for sunbath. Peter WaSn't afraid Of her, for he knew he was too big for Mrs. Watersnake to pay any attention to. So he rema,n- ed right whete he Was. Mrs. Wa tersnake took long sunDatn. At last she began to move. She slid over the edge of the rock into the water and Peter thought he had probably seen the last of her.
 But Peter hadn't seen the last Of Mrs. Watersnake. Almost at once she reappeared and climbed Dacl upon the roCN. In her mouth was a nice young tro"t. This she began to swallow head first as soon al sh" wa9 out on the rock. Little by littl" 1t disa ppeared.
 "Goodncss. what job snal,' has to cat" thought Peter. I'm glad I don't have to swallow my food that way. l don't see what fun there can be in eating. My, my. look at her mouth stretcn. It ma&es my jaws ache just looking at her"
 After a while the trout disap peared down the throat of Mrs, Watersnake and she once more set

ZEPPELIN REACHES
ROME ON LONG TRIP
Crafts Cruise to Cover 5000
MiIes-TWo Women Among
he 27 Passengers.

Graf Zeppelin, on 5,000-mile flight
over the Mediterranean and Central
Europe, arrived over Rome at
O'Clock this afternoon. 1t circled the
city three times and 20 minutes later
left in southerly direction.
BY the Associated Press.
FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany
March 25.--The Graf Zeppelin, mighty
mistress of the air, left her hangar here
early today and later was reported sail
ing over the Mediterranean on the Sec
ond long cruise of her career.
Five thousand miles of travel lay
ahead. with four days of cruising over
France, Italy. the northeastern and
eastern shores of the Mediterranean,
the Balkans and countries of Central
Europe before the giant dtrigible should
return to f.ieas.Ihshafen.
Departure was at 1854 am. (6:45
Sunday, Eastern standard time), being
delayed somewhat by the late arrival OF
some OF the 81 passengers, among them
two women. Besides the passengers the
ship carried crew of 48. and total
load of SIS tons.
Mort Gayety az Departure.
There was more gayety at departure
today than on the setting out on the
transatlantic venture last year, but there
was less excitement. At 1916 the
brightly lighted silvered craft was
dragged from its hangar onto the flying
field, where several hundred watchers
had gathered to see the start.
Released by the workmen the dirigible
rose quickly to 200 meters and pointed
its nose to the east, DR.. Hugo Eckener,
master. setting its course over. Lake
Constance toward Basic, Switzerland
and Marseille.
Route Depends on Weather.
Bathed in the soft moonlight the
Graf Zeppelin could be seen by the
watchers here for long while after 1t
took off. DR.. Eckener prior to depar-
ture announced his exact route would
depend upon such weather conditions
as he encountered.
New hunks and other interior i'm
provements had been made on the
dirigible prior to its departure which 1t
was believed would make the trip more
comfortable for the passengers tnan
were the two TRANSATLANTIC crossings:
The ship carried both blaugas ana
benzine for fuel.
