Inspiration of Great Song

Carrie Jacobs Bond, author Of
"The End Of a Perfect Day." de-
scribes the circumstances under
which the song was written as fol-
lows: "The story of the writing Of
The End Of a Perfect Day has
been told many, many times and
In many, many ways, but the truth
Is a very simple story. The in
spiration came to me as was view
Ing wonderful sunset from the
top OF Mount Rubidoux in Riverside.
Calf. I had been motoring through
southern California and we had
been seeing many beautiful sights,
but the glory Of this sunset from
the mountains was the most beauti-
full thing l had ever seen. / hur-
ried back to the Mission inn to get
ready for dinner and while dress
Ing thought how wished / could
express my thanks to those friends
In some little way, just out of the
ordinary, and almost at once came
the words Of A Perfect Day."

Chinese Breeders Make
Varieties of Goldfish

Goldfish made their first ap-
pearsnce In Europe In the year
1891. having been imported from
St Helena" writes DR.. Berthold
Laufer. In the Field Museum News.
They had come to st. Helena from
Bavaria. and Chinese settlers who
emigrated to Java had brought
them along as a reminder of their
home country.
Charles Darwin believed that
goldfish had been kept In confine-
ment In China from an ancient pc
Rod. The belief is well founded
and Ii strongly supported by Chi
nese records. The goldfish is
native OF China nd still is to be
found In a wild stAs In rivers

NoRR1sTOwN, Pa, Nov. "a
G.N.SO Rose Allen and her
father, Horace Allen, again visited
Edward H. B. Allen in the Mont
gomery county jail yesterday aft,

They appeared in company of
Henry G. Pearce, of Haverford,
Pa, and were Immediately ad.
mitted to the visitors room. Eddie
was brought to the room and the
couple spent almost a half hour
with him.
Rose apparently has not yet
completely forgiven her father.
She entered the room ahead OF
her father and paid no heed to
him until he attempted to confer
with her and Eddie. Then she
asked him to let her talk to her
brother alone and finally the
elder Allen consented. After Rose
finished her chat with the pris
oner, the father talked with his
son.
Miss Allen was dressed in
somber black and appeared still
keenly to feel the loss of Francis

MAROONED,
RESCUED
Four Boys, Three Girls Spend
Long, Foggy Hours on
Sandbar in Potomac

A motor launch which for
"a hours was stuck on a sand
bar in the Potomac two miles
below Alexandria, part of that
time with seven persons aboard,
is back at its dock today while
the seven are trying to laugh
off their experience of being
marooned all night in fog $50
thick you could cut it,"
Sunday evening at 6 o'clock the
party chugged down the river for
a sunset ride, expecting to be back
before the moon rose high.
The party included Charles
Slade. of 303 Greenwood Ave-, Ia
koma Park: Miss Nellie Hubbard,
with her brothers. Sam, Charlie
and Reed. all Of 127 Carroll Ave-,
Takoma Park, and two other girls.
All are just over 20 years Of age
Stuck on Sandbar
En- route home the boat, owned
by Slade, stuck on q Sandbar at 9
o'clock. Two hours later occu'
pants had worked the craft free
but after they had gone few feet
it got stuck. again.
The fog was thickening, the tide
going down, and despite their eff
forts the craft remained fast on
a ledge. The river air grew cold
but the youths had a ukelele and
a phonograph, and, though their
voices sounded ghostly in the
foggy night. they sang to keep
their spirits up, awaiting The
dawn.
Some time before morning
Slade decided to try to go for
help. Not knowing how far away
was the shore, and not able to see
more than a few feet. he dived
into Nthe icy water and started
swimming across the current.
With Horn as Guide
He carried in his mouth a little
horn which he blew at intervals,
and was answered by Miss Nellie
Hubbard with another horn, thus
keeping his sense of direction.
He finally made shore, tele-
phoned .harbor police for help
and sent word to the various
homes that the young people were
safe. He then swan back to the
boat, guided by the sound Of the
horn. f.....,
Harbor police went down the
river to search for the craft and
other boats kept on the lookout,
but it was late yesterday when the
launch was found and the young
folks taken off. They reached
their homes in mid-afternoon.
Worried Mother Ill
At the Hubbard home they
found their mother had not re
ceived the message Of their safety
and was confined to her bed, sick
with worry over her children. She
is still i'll today.

IN PERIL,
IS VIEW
Portion Of Pay Contributions
Asked by Social Service
League and Others

Headed by the Montgomery
County Commissioners, County
organizations including the
Montgomery County Civic Fed
Grafton, the Public Health De-
partment, the Red Cross, and
the Board of Education, have
joined with the Social Service
League in a plea for their share
of the three days pay con-
tributed to the unemployed by
Federal employees who reside in
Montgomery County.
The main point stressed by the
county authorities is that the Git
ford commission has said each
community should contribute to
the support of the needy in its
locality and the interest of the
5000 Government workers who
call Montgomery county home
morally should be centered in a
county relief program.
Heavier Load This Year
The Social Service League is
the central relief agency for the
administration of relief funds in
the county and is recognized by
county and State authorities and
other county agencies. Moneys
are received not only from vol
untary subscribers but also from
the county.
Money taken from the pay en-
velopes will be greater than most
contributions have been hefeto-
fore and the donors can hardly
be expected to give again, Miss
Willie Greene Day, executive sec
xetary. declared.
The present load is three times
that Of the corresponding period
last year. Furthermore, commun-
ity chest experience has shown
that few persons designate which
agency they wish their money
to aid.
e. Chest Aid Limited
Unless it is designated. the en-
tire amount will go to the chest
which is not the desire Of the
county people, Miss Day added.
The only aid received from the
chest is an agreement for Ger
tain disqualification cases, which
chest officials agree is greatly
Overbalanced by the amounts con-
&ributed to the chest.

cold fog. Il leave Saturday for Bom-
bay. There We shall take up again
our weaponless battle against Eng

"Yes,' he said, in answer to q ques-
ton, II expect to be a guest of the
government again In jail--or they
might deport me, but the fight will
60 on"
He plodded along, his head bowed,
his shoulders dropped and his home
spun shawl pulled tightly around his
Scrawny body. His voice sounded
spectral. as 1t came through the thick
AOe w Vic llSlCilCl dU lid oAOC.
From behind him came the solici-
tous admonntion of Mira Behn, the
former Miss Madeleine Slade, his de-
voted disciple: This way, baabco
(father." The Mahatma paused
while she picked up the end Of his
trailing shawl and put 1t around his
shoulder, beckoning to a turn in the
road.
I'VE must go again through q CAL
vary of suffering" he continued after
a moments silence. Not far away the
chimes of a church rang out the hour.
The swish OF Gandhi's sandals echoed
through the silent streets. ut seems
Gods will that we must take up our
heavy cross and carry it to the end
"How soon after you return will
you begin the battle?"
"The masses in India are only
awaiting my signal. but I think I
shall study conditions a while before
give it."
