FAIRYLAND OF FOUNTAINS
LOngwOOd Gardens Wonder
Place-POst To Present
Pageant

Pageant
With the recent completion
of the new fountain, LongwoOd
Gardens, the P. S. DUPONT es-
tate, near Kennett Square, Pa,
gains undisputed place as the
h"premier American estate"
In front of the broad, Vine
covered expanse of the build
ing housing the Longwood
conservatory in a space once
entirely smooth green lawn,
the last word in colored foun-
tains and landscape gardening,
has transformed it into a real
"Fairyland of Fountains.
The layout of the new foun-
tains consists of an upper
canal, Is feet wide and 275 feet
long, a lower canal of the same
dimensions, with two 60-foot
circular basins, one at each
end, a rectangular basin on a
low hill further from the con-
servatory, and a waterfall be-
yond.
The magnitude of the foun-
tain display may be gTasped
from the fact that there are IA
single and IA spray jets in the
upper canal, 16 single and 16
sprays in the lower canal, anG
II displays in the rectangular
basin on the hill.
The jets of the fountain in
the upper canal rise to about
20 feet, while the jets on the
rectangular basin on the hill
farther from the conservatory
leap from 40 to 100 feet in the
air. They are Illuminated by
about 800 light units.
The canals, as the concrete
lined shallow pits in which the
fountain jets are set are called,
have a layer of powdered car
borundum on the bottom. The
water from the fountains, of
course, falls back into the
canals and the effectiveness of
the colored lights played on the
cascading jets of water is
greatly increased by the spark
lie resulting from the corborun-
dunn surfaced concrete bottom.
The lights are set just above
the line of the water accumu-
lating in the canals. The glass
covering the electric bulbs is
made of special ingredient to
withstand the action of the
great heat of the high power
lamps and action of the water
which splashes the lenses.
The arrangement of the lights
about each fountain is circular.
Each fountain jet is lighted by
five colors, red, blue, green,
amber and white. The tints
which these colors can be made
to create when played upon the
cascading water is marvellous,
according to the engineers.
Colored lights also illumi-
nate the waterfall over which
5000 gallons of water cascade
every minute during which the
display is active. The water
can, of course, be shut off COM
pletely at any time. The wat
erfall is IL feet wide and will
have a drop of 80 feet.
Besides the fountain and
waterfall, the chime tower of
light brown rough stone on the
hill nearby adds to the general
scheme of fairyland. The
mellow sweet tones of the
chimes ring out every quarter
OF an hour. They may be
heard clearly for about a mile.
A special display of these
new fountains will be given
after each stage performance
OF the Washington Bi-Centen-
NAL pageant, Building a Ma
tion," with cast of $50, under
direction of James I. Hall,
Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day nights, July 81, %, %, I'M

LOUISVILLE. KY, December 90
No figures are available on feminine
unemployment in Louisville, since the
city has no employment registration.
Many iobless girls, formerly self

and crowding in light Housekeeping"

Women Endure Hardship.
Not as much is heard Of or from the

food longer than men to keep up ap-

Most of Louisville's jobless girls are
girls with business training or factory
workers. The depression has pushed
many of these girls down the work scale
to maids and cooks. There still is a
demand for these here, although women
employing them are becoming more un-
willing to pay a wage, Offering only
room and board instead.
The city has two free employment
