New York.-One of the sights every visitor to New York peeps at from the top of a Fifth avenue bus
 if it isn't too cold-is the walled garden of Thomas Fortune Ryan, up in the Sixties.
 And they are told by those driv- CTS who know their Manhattan that this is the most valuable garden in the world, although it seems to be barely an eyeful as the bus flashes past. Unless one is perched well up in the air, it's not possible to look upon this patio-Sort of square be- cause of wall of grayish- white stone.
 The value of this plot was placed recently at several millions. It ad- joins Ryan's private art gallery, and has a frontage of but hundred feet on the "avenoo." Considering it's gold value, the peep that visi- tors get is bit disappointing, for it consists merely of a few bushes, couple of stone benches, foun- tain or two and some vines crawl ing up lattice walls.
 With everybody from the street urchins to the society damsels try ing to pick up new tap dance steps this winter, the more astute bio graphers have been trying to figure out how it all came about.
 Well, perhaps you're one of those mortals who can remember when it was the dear old "clog'
 Maybe it's bit more refined and intricate than the clog-by the way, what's become of that word?
 At any rate, it seems that time was when there were more clog dancers than tap dancers-and who hasn't tried step or two? The clog, by the way, has been traced to the early '70s and the late eos. The masters of their day were Barney Pagan, Jack Shannon and Charlie Queen. At the time prize contests in clogging were quite the rage, with judges sitting severely in boxes.
 And perhaps you didn't know that the more elegant and refined term "tap" came over from London? We'll it did! 1t worked first into soft shoe routine of the sort per- fected by the late George Primrose, the minstrel man.
 The legend about the theater is that London first heard. of such q dance from an American performer who had picked it up, in turn, from facile darkies; believed there was some trick about it; that the shoes worn held some sort of concealed gadgets. When the first London was made, the per former was asked to take off his shoes and prove there was no magic about it.
 Of course, if someone really wanted to take the trouble to do a little sleuthing, the clog and tap as well could doubtless be traced back to Irish jigs and folk music of other lands. The Improvisation in the Amermican version owed more than little to the negro shuffles.

About 15 minutes after the end of my swim, I brushed my hand over my chin and rubbed away grains of salt!
 A barrel of water taken from Great Salt Lake contains much more salt than barrel of ocean water. Salt is what makes the water so heavy in Utah's famous lake. Since the water is heavier, cubic foot for cubic foot, than a human being, peo- pie who jump in will bob up almost like corks.
 Rivers take salt away from rocks and carry it to the ocean. This has been going on for ages and ages. Sunshine turns some of the ocean water into vapor, and the vapor rises into the air. The salt is left below. The result is that ocean waters be- come more and more salty.
 In the same way lakes would be- come salty if they did not have good outlets; but you usually find that at least one stream flows away from a lake. Thus the water is kept moving and remains fresh. There is no good outlet to Great Salt Lake.
 Water also carries lime from place to place. Rain water (which is not always safe to drink) is al- most free from solid parts. Rain and the water from melted snow sink into the earth and flow through holes between rock layers. The wa ter wears away rock.
 Limestone is worn away more than any other kind. Our biggest caves are hollows left where lime stone once existed under the soil.
 Water drips into caves from the ceilings, and when that happens "stalactites" are formed. This is due to bits of lime being left behind when the water seeps through. In the course of time long objects shap- ed like icicles may be seen hanging from the cave ceilings.

1 the loan companies could collect not

 Representative Burns also plans
 on entering a bill to do away with the present charge of ten per cent
 per year on back taxes after they
 have been in arrears for one year.
 This bill was passed at the 1929 ses- sion of the legislature. Representa- tive Burns though serving his first term in the house is becoming known as one of the active demo-
 cratic members.

 lin. Rehearsals will be held weekly thereafter on Monday nights. The chorus is made up of some of the
 boroughs leading singers. Director Bohlin will be glad to have any singer in the borough become afiil- lated.

 Representative Burns Active
 A bill abolishing the personal tax on married women and widows of the state was presented to the gen. eral assembly yesterday by Repre- sentative Hugh Burns of this bor- ough.
 Representative Burns with the aid of his democratic colleagues in the assembly plans on making a vigorous effort to have this bill made a law. Representative Burns believes that it is an injustice to married women and widows. In eight cases out ot ten he states, it is the man who Is the breadwinner of the family that is forced to pay the tax of $2 for his wife.
 Several other bills are in the lawmaker. One of these would reg ulate the amount of interest that might be charged by loan companies. Under present law these loan com panies may make a charge of three and one-half per cent per month. Representative Burns would have this limited by state law so that

And perhaps you didn't know, either, that among the pioneers of the good old dance were historic ones, such as Fred Stone, George M. Conan and Eddie Foy.
 But the Irish ancestry will not down, and so any list of names of the masters of this dance are al- most certain to have an Irish cast. such as Roxie O'Rourke. Pat Rooney, Jimmie Sweeney, Pagan, Hayle, Lynch, Kirk and few hum dred others.
 And, referring to matters of the stage, the Theater Guilds leading players, Lunt and Fontanne, have become nationally known within the past couple of years. Yet Alfred Lunt, after clicking his first Broad way success, went hungry while try ing to get another job. His hit was "Clarence" and his second job is what the stage calls "walk-on. !" Which means there are not even lines to be spoken. It was in a dramatization of the life of Robert F. Lee"
