Mrs. CooIings' Father, Report
ed Missing 10 Days, Found;
Wife's GriIIing Continues

NEW YORK, Sept. II G.N.SO i.
Police of two States swept Long
Island Sound today in a hunt for
Benjamin P. Ceilings, of Stam-
ford, Conn, missing from his
cruiser Penguin Wednesday night
and believed murdered.
While Nassau county officials
heightened their search the dis
appearance of Herman P. Chelius,
76, former director of the Boston
Conservatory of Music and father
of Mrs. Collins, was reported to
the police. Early this afternoon.
however, Chelius was located in
a hotel in New London, Conn,
and informed of the tragedy. He
left Immediately for the Ceilings
home in Stamford.
She Kept Diary
In an obscure hotel in Garden
City, l.. l., Mrs. Ceilings, after a
night, of fitful rest, rose to face
a renewed grilling by the police
on details of the story. of the
fiendish crime she told them
when she was picked up at dawn
yesterday in the motor boat Bo
Peep.
Her Story
Two men in a canoe, the beau
tiful red-haired young matron
said, had boarded the Penguin
where she lay moored off North
port on Wednesday night. They
told Ceilings they had a wounded
pal in the canoe and demanded
he weight anchor and put them
ashore on the Connecticut side.
He refused and they bound him
and threw him overheard. She
tossed a pneumatic mattress in
after him because she knew he
could swim only a very little.
The men then, she said, swept
her off her feet and bundled her
into the canoe, criuinaIly at
tackled her, and finally put her
off on the BO Peep while they
padded away.
Brilliant and refreshed, the
young wife, who is 10 years
younger than her husband,
greeted Inspector King when he
called for her at $50, and was
whirled to Mineola police head
quarters.
One of its central points is the
contents of the huge black leather
bound diary which covers seven
years of her social and domestic
life.
Blessed by FateS
Another point is the inevitable
delving into her past. ThiS SO
far has revealed that Mrs. Col
lingS, who is the only daughter of
a composer, piano concert art..t,
and a musical director of one of
the cOuntry'S mCSt famous con-
ServatOries of music, attended a
private school in Quincy, Mass,
There she met Helen Ceilings, who
introduced her to BENJAMIN r.,
her brother, a wealthy engineer,
graduate of Yale and Cornell.
Seven years ago the then Miss
CheliuS married him.

G.N.SD.-At least two persons
were killed and 20 injured by an
explosion at the Eastman Kodak

blast blew out an entire side Of
the four-Story brick building.
Actual cause of the explosion
had not been determined. Eight
hundred employees work in the

The fact that the loss of life
was not larger is probably due to
the fine discipline of the EN-.

in distant places from securing ready sale of their furs. Of course, it will be urged that rules must be laid down for the control of the buSnesS, and I concede that, but the rules ought to be such as not to destroy the business. This particular matter can be ar ranged so as not to destroy the credit of both trapper and trader, and the Biological Survey and Game Commission can easily do that if they would only take that degree of interest in assisting the trade that they do in protecting the game. have many complaints from trappers, traders and fur farmers about limitations, etc., upon them, which seem to them and to myself to be unnecessary burdens upon them, but they will make their own statements to you personally, if they can receive notice and a hearing.
 Tn conclusion l most respect fully request that:
 CD. The Committee extend it's the junction of the Tanana and the junction of the Tanana nd Yukon rivers, nd farther if you can.
 @. That general notice of your coming be given and that trappers and traders, fur farmers and all persons interested in the fur trade, be invited to appear be- fore you whenever and wherever possible, and make statements concerning the protection of wild life, as we'll as trapping, trading and fur farming.
 (3). That your Committee give quite as much attention to the protection of trapping, the fur trade and fur farming, as is nec- essary to dvise you of needed changes in or additional rules for the protection of this impor- tant and legitimate business, and that this feature of the subject be given such space in your find ings and report as will relieve these men from unjust and hn- necessary burdens, about which many of them now complain. There will be no doubt that the Biological Survey and the Alaska Game Commission will be heard to support their views on all these matters, but the men who produce the annual Four Mil lion Dollar trade from Alaska furs are the real people who ought to be heard to speak, and I respect fully urge that they be given spe- clal notice and hearing.
 Your sailing from Seattle, I un- derstand, will be about the 27th of June, on one of the Bureau of Fisheries boats and wishing you a pleasant trip into the great Alaska fur land, I am,

Keep Young Cockerels
in bachelor" Quarters

Place prospective breeding cock
erels in bachelor" quarters at the age
Of 10 TO II weeks, counsels Berley
Winton of the Missouri College Of Ag-
riculture. Put the culls in fattening
crates for quick growth gains two
weeks before sale. Removal of the
males will help prevent crowding and
will provide room for the pullets to
make apid growth.
AS soon as the young Gull chickens
weigh one and one-fourth to one and
one-half pounds. they are ready to fat
ten. They should be placed in fatten-
ing crates, and should receive no feed
the first "a hours. Then feed the fat
tening batter lightly for the first day
or two at least three and preferably
five times a day. Care should he taken
not to over-feed and to keep the birds
slightly hungry by giving only what
they will clean up in Is minutes. II
is not considered profitable to fatten
for more than IA days.
A good batter is made from seven
parts of cornmeal and three parts of
middlings mixed with enough butter
milk or skimmilk to make the whole
the consistency of pancake batter. Or
dinarily two pounds of milk to one
pound of dry feed are used. Neither
grit nor water are required with this
ration.

Now Is Good Time to Plan
for Matching Pullets.

Winter eggs are not the most prof
liable eggs for the poultry producer.
Fall production of eggs Is more i'm
portant than winter production. ac-
cOrding to an analysis of egg prices
during the months of August, Sep
TENDER. October and November. and
comparison with the winter prices,
made by r. e. Cray. extension spe-
cialist in poultry husbandry at the
Ohio state university.
"In February is the time to plan
the Matching of pullets for production
of eggs next fall during the high-price
season." says Cray. Next winter is
the time for managing the flock in
such way that the egg production
which started in the fall will continue
throughout the winter"
Breeding is the first requirement Of
pullets that are to mature early. lay
good-sized eggs, and continue to pro-
duce steadily through the fall and
winter months. Careful breeding is
becoming more and more important
with general increases in feed prices
and decreases In egg prices. / feel
safe in predicting that the next five
years will see conditions In the pOul-

Green Ducks Always in
Demand at Fair Prices

Ducks require about the same care
that is given to geese. However. ducks
are easier to mate and. generally
speaking. easier to manage. 1t is best
to keep standard bred ducks. the mark
ct will pay more for uniform quality.
the carcass is bigger and besides there
is a ready demand for breeding stock
of the more popular breeds.
Young ducks require fresh water to
drink. but do not require it to puddle
in and should not be allowed to spoil
the drinking water in this way.
To fatten young ducks to the green
duck stage. they must be kept in yards
or pens which are clean and sanitary.
and fed every ounce they will con-
sumo of the following ration:
Three parts cornmeal.
Two parts low grade flour (or mid
dlings).
One part bran.
One-half part beef scrap, to which
should be added per cent fine grit
and 10 per cent green feed.
Feed this as q mash, moistened
with milk. three or four times day
all they will eat. This mixture, fed
properly, will make three to four
pound green duck in ten to twelve
weeks.

He Died for Love of a Spy

He was a cadet at the aviation CEN
ter of Lssoudun. His brother birdmen
called him Jerry o. which, for the
purposes of this story, is near enough
to his real name. He made love to
every welfare girl he ever met-this
upon the word Of one of them who Is
the authority for this story-that is,
until Marie came to Issoudun. Marie
was barmaid, the sister Of man
who gave French lessons to the Off
GERS at the flying camp. After he saw
Marie, he couldn't ''see" any other girl.
Their romance flourished for awhile.
And then-Marie was arrested. French
counter espionage officers revealed the
fact that she was German spy. They
questioned her and Jerry was involved.
He hadn't betrayed any secrets, for
he didn't know any to betray. But the
upshot of it was that he was removed
from flying lists and confined to quar-
tiers. There he brooded-over the dis
grace that had come upon him, and
over the deception by his sweetheart.
Eventually he was restored to his
former status and put back on the fly
ing lists. But he made only one flight
after that. AS his buddies watched
him circling around for landing they
saw that he had apparently lost con-
troll and from height of about 1000
meters his plane dived straight for
the ground. The ground officers who
investigated crashes made their exam
ination and turned in a report OF acct
dent. But that didn't deceive his broth
er flyers. They knew that he was too
good pilot to dive thousand meters
at the grOund-accidentally.
Today white cross stands in the
graveyard at Issoudun. 1t bears the
name of Jerry. The welfare girl who
tells this story visited it a year or
so after the war. On it she saw
huge wreath of imitation green leaves
and bead designs done in the usual
French manner. There was a sun
faded card on the wreath. 1t read
For the grave of Lieut.. Jerry o.
From his great friend Marie NJ" Yes,
Marie had been released from prison
when the war was over and she had
returned to Issoudun long enough to
decorate Jerry's grave. And that's the
end of this story of Jerry O.. Ameri.
can aviator, and Marie NJ. French, bar
maid and German SPY.

When Wilson Went Home

President Wilson departed from
France the early afternoon of June
20. 1919, in striking contrast to the
exciting scenes which had marked his
his reception a few weeks before. A
typical Brest day of drizzling, inter-
minable rair and oceans of mud,
greeted the President when he ar
rived in the forenoon at the French
embarkation center on his special
train.
The George Washington, transport
on which the President made his east
ward voyage, waited in the outer har-
Dor. Only a detachment Of NJ. P.'s
were present as Mr.. Wilson rode out
to the vessel. No doughboy guards
were lined up as on the previous occa.
sion when he debarked.
Non-coms of the Forty-first division,
who had served as an honor guard at
the Presidents mansion in Paris. the
Fifth Engineers and the One Hun
dred and Forty-sixth Machine Gun bat
TALON were aboard the George Wash
ington when she sailed for home.
These men had barely completed
their midday chow when the historic
George Washington whistled her fare
well to France and, with the Presi-
dent, headed west.
So inconspicuous was the departure
that many American soldiers In the
French port were unaware that day
that their commander in chief had
sailed for home.
