The Future of Coal

Many are saying that coal as
fuel is destined to a minor
place, but recent estimates in
dicate that coal is our chief
source of future power. In the
light of present knowledge, coal
is the chief hope of the future.
Petroleum and natural gas are
said to be giving out, leaving
falling water as GOALS most i'm
portant competitor. And water
power, it is pointed out, offers
serious competition only where
sites are favorable for hydro
electric plants.
The supply of coal in the
United States is estimated at
more than five trillion tons, or
about one-half of the worlds
coal reserves. 1t should last g.

900 years, we are told. By the
end of that period we will be
troubled by other annoyances no
doubt.
Converting coal to many uses
by chemical processes is a hope
full trend in the industry. Pull
verizing coal and then allowing
it to settle on solution of cal
cium chloride, so that the ash
sinks to the bottom and the coal
particles float on top, is now a
common process. Steamships,
locomotives in some countries,
and other steam-driven engines
are now using pulverized coal.
The time will come when coal in
the raw material will not be
used for fuel. By chemical
treatment the raw material will
be converted into other products
coke, oil, gas, etc. Already
hydrogenation of coal, by mix
.ture of pulverized coal with oil,
produces gasoline and other
fuels. Chemists are busy work
ing out more and still more uses
for coal, so that the future of the
industry should not be regarded
as altogether pessimistic. Our
immediate problem is more sem
sible planning in the matter of
production and distribution.

Missouri Unfriendly to Mabel


Mabel Walker Willebrandt,
who campaigned for Hoover in
1923, preaching the virtues of
Prohibition, has now become
counsel for a corporation that
sells grape concentrate" This
is one of those products that is
legal when you buy it but fer
ments afterward and thereby be-
comes illegal.
Apropos of Missouri's refusal
to permit the sale of the juice,
the St. Louis Post Dispatch
says:
: Missouri has done the girl
wrong. Fancy a state like ours,
with background of romance
and traditions of chivalry second
to none-fancy such a state
shaking fist at Mabel Walker
Willebrandt and warning her to
cross our threshold at her peril.
Alas, it is the bitter fact. And
accepting the ultimatum, Mabel
has counseled her client to shun
Missouri.
Time was, perhaps, when a
good many communities would
have liked to pile high the fagots
for Mabel. When the lady swept
across the terrain in 1923, dis
tributing rhetorical pineapples
to all the dry brethren, it did
seem as if Shakespeare had hit
her off with his Woman, thy
name is dynamite But the
Mabel of now isn't even a dis
tant relative of the lady of then.
She who was consecrated to the
destruction of JOY is now en-
gagged in the pretty mission OF
making life as tolerable as may
be under the reign of intoler-
ance. A philosophy as forbid
ding as Medusa's bob is now as
glorious as the locks that Titan
loved to paint. Mourning Cas-
sandra has become an Ariel of
silvery laughter, a winsome god
dess of the grape, chanting the
ritual Of merriment.

What's in Fashion?
JeWeIry as Color Accent
Directed by AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, May 9.-Look
to your other accessories when
you choose your colorful cos
tune jewelry. To your hand
kerchiefs, belts, scarfs and
handbags. AS we'll as to your
dress and coat and hat.
Why? Because the fashion
for color in the costume has
many a pitfall for the unwary.
It's all too easy to look like a
brightly trimmed Christmas
tree.
If the other accessories are
brightly colorful, jewelry should
take its color in small doses. In
color combined with white or
with silver. And in small, in
stead of heavy-looking, pieces.
Smart White Jewelry
White is one of the smarteSt
colorS you can use in your
jeWelry. an Opaque white.
White coral, white composition
materials of a creamy tint.
You wear it with black. blue
and brown costumes. especially
when they have other white
touches. And white is the logi.
cal color to use with the little
prints that have sharp white
accents in them.
Color combined with silver Is
a smart accompaniment of the
tailored costume. Simulated
Sapphires, lapis and deep red
stones are effective with gray
and blue costumes that have
the tailored look.
Bright Color Contrasts
Sharp color contrasts can be
made most in tereSti g-if
you're careful. Bright yellow
or bright red can both be used
with navy or brown costumes.
But the necklace-or what,
ever the jewelry is-has to be
chosen to look as though it
belonged with that particular
costume. The point is not to
have the necklace the first
and only-thing about the cos.
tune that you see.
All these Algerian colorS
you've been hearing about are
the best thing you can choose
to wear with white costumes.
The bright blues and reds and
yellowS.
They're smart Singly or in
combinations. Flat collar ef-
fects made up of many strands
Of fine, small beads in groups
display these bright colors
perfectly.

NeLU York National
Guard Commander
Weds Belgian Girl

Mrs. Ralph Hanke, daughter
Of Nine. Fernand Heger, of
Brussels, and John Haskell, son
of Gen. William Haskell. U. 8.
A.. commander of the New
York National Guard, were
married yesterday forenoon in
the town hall of the Paris six-
teenth ward.
The ward mayor performed
the ceremony, with the fathers
of the bride and the bridegroom
acting as witnesses.
The bride wore a chartreuse
georgette dress and black coat
trimmed in silver fox. She had
on a large black straw hat and
a corsage of orchids and lilies
of the valley.
The bride is the daughter of
the administrator Of the Uni
Versity of Brussels. She was
divorced from Ralph Hanke, an
American, last April. The
bridegroom was of the class Of

A number of uniquely charm
ing country places never before
opened to the public will be in
cluded in the first annual gar
den pilgrimage sponsored by
the Chevy Chase Garden Club
of Maryland now planned for
Tuesday. May 26. In case Of
inclement weather the pilgrim
age will be postponed to the
following day, Wednesday, May
q,
The garden tour is being so
planned as to include such
marvellous show places as
Abremont, the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Parsons Err
win, the William S. Corby place
at Chevy Chase Circle and
Woodend, the estate of Capt.
and Mrs. Chester Wells.
An Ancient Manor
Historic interest of a faS-
cinating sort will be implied in
the visits to Hayes, the 10
year-old Colonial manor of Mr..
and Mrs. G. Thomas Dunlop,
and to Brook Farm, the quaint
Revolutionary home of DR.. and
Mrs. Frank ShultZ. Eighteenth
century memories, both grim
and gay, hover around these
old homes. The galleried house
at Brook Farm still bears the
mark of enemy cannon. while
back of Hayes Manor in a sun
ny corner of the strawberry
garden is the grave of Parson
Alexander Williamson. the
rock-ribbed old Tory who built
the mansion and was later un-
frocked because of his Royal
list leanings. He sulked out his
remaining days among the
roses and ilacs Of Hayes, then
a 700-acre estate named after
the Hayes of County Kent in
England. and we may presume
vented his spleen and cheered
his spirit at the same time by
drinking a few hearty toastS
to King George. After his death
the estate was purchased in
1882 by James Dunlop, a young
Scotchman new to this county.
Six generations of DunlopS
have now lived at Hayes. Like
ParSon Williamson, they have
preferred to remain near their
home in death and slumber
peacefully in the family bury,
ing plot a few hundred feet
from the mansion.
Trees Are Great Beauty
Its stately trees are among
the chief beauties of Hayes.
A gnarled and blasted oak of
giant size, completely draped
with wisteria, breaks the wide
sweep Of lawn fronting the
house. The silver and pale green
Of young bircheS contrast with a
background of great dark spruces
while the seldom seen tulip
poplars show exotic green and
yellow blossoms. The Hayes
flower garden is properly old
fashioned, with an abundance
Of EDSes, lilacs and peonies,
while lilies-of-the-valley and tall

flag lilies peep out at every
corner.
Brook Farm is that great
rarity, a real farm almost in
the city. One of the old slave
cabins remain on the place and
Mrs. Shultz has furnished it
cleverly with the proper an
tiques of the period. Copper
cooking things are on the
hearth, while hooked rugs,
patchwork quilts and hundred
year-old prints complete the pic
ture. There is even a COON
skin nailed to the wall. Tea
will be served in this cabin as
well as in the Shultz home on
the day of the pilgrimage.
Quite as engroSSing to many
visitors as the summer flower
garden of Brook Farm will be
the sleek barnyard population
owned by DR.. and Mrs. Shultz.
Rare pheasants and wild ducks
are being successfully raised,
also some aristocrats Of the
poultry world with blue-black
combs and silky white fur-like
down instead of feathers. There
is huge turkey gobbler named
Joe, who is no pacifist; two
beautiful horses and Shetland
pony; nor must we forget Susie
Lee, a very large and very pink
and-White pig. Susie, as a very
tiny pigling, was given to one
Of the Shultz boys and this
humane-minded family have
never made up their minds to
let Susie go the way of all pork.
Small Gardens Included
An attractive feature of the
tour will be the inclusion of a
number of the smartly planned
smaller gardens that abound in
suggestions and inspiration for
every amateur gardener.
One Of the most striking gar
dens of this group is that of
Col. and Mrs. L. c. Duncan at
their Bradley Lane home, Colonel
Duncan has completely planned
and executed the entire garden,
including the cement garden
furnishings and fountains which
accent the landscaping scheme.
Narrow brick walks aid in Sc
curing a lengthy perspective,
while an amusing little Japa-
nese rock garden. with tiny
bridges and pagodas, occupies
one far corner. another one
being taken up by a miniature
nursery where the colonel raises
his own trees from the seed.
Mrs. Wells Opens WoOdend
Another instance of the value
OF personal planning, although
on different scale, is seen at
Woodend, where Mrs. Chester
Wells has taken the natural con-
tours of her grounds into con-
Sideration in working out a
scheme of garden units. Flow
ering trees and shrubs are
planted at the edge of the for
est to form a sort of woodland
garden at the border of the
wide lawns. A rose garden and
q rock garden are other fea-
turess
