TO THE BOTTOM

Quincy, Mass, April 4.-(UP)-
The damaged collier William c..
Atwater arrived here safely and
was unloading her 4,000-ton cargo
at the Fore River Coal company's
wharf today. thanks to the stern,
convincing commands of Captain
Ernest J. Pearce after the ship
struck Sow and Pigs Reef in Vine
yard sound late Saturday.
Twice the crew of "a men be-
came panicky and started for the
lifeboats after the collier, her dou-
BILE bottom filled with water, listed
and settled so low that waves
washed her decks. But. without
resort to arms, Skipper Pearce re-
stored order both times and
brought the crippled ship around
Cape Cod and into Massachusetts
bay.
David Atwater of Fall River,
owner of the collier, met the ship
when she locked here yesterday
and thanked Cap'n Pearce for his
cool handling of the emergency.
Despite the accident the Atwater
arrived on scheduled time from
Norfolk. The coast guard cutter
Acushnet went to her assistance
following the grounding and con-
voyed her to port.

Police Head of
New Jersey Lost

Scotland Yard told the United
Press that Major Schoeffel had
communicated with the yard but
officials declined to disclose the ma
ture of the communication. They
would not confirm reports that the
New Jersey official had been at the
yard during the morning.
Major Schoeffel continued to
elude newspaper correspondents.
Major Schoeffel arrived at Ply
mouth on the Liner Mauretania

who boarded the ship could not
find him.
They found his cabin empty, APP
parently not occupied during the
night, although steward said the
mysterious passenger had retired
at midnight. Passengers declined to
talk about the missing salesman.
The ship continued to Southamp-
ton where a new and eager delega-
ton of newsmen went aboard. They
did not find Major Schoeffel. who

Southampton and London. Report

Bagley is more than so years

is of slight build, partly bald, and

set to ring at five-minute inter
walls, starting at 5:45 a. m. In
addition, a hotel clerk rings his
apartment at $40 and 6 o'clock.
After Bagley arises, he never turns

fearful he'll tumble back in bed

PLANT PERENNIALS FOR
PERMANENT BEAUTY
WITH LITTLE WORK

Happily for most of us, perennials
add a permanent note of gayety and
color to the outdoor living room, and
yet require little attention and effort
to insure their successful growth.
Perennials might well be called the
BUSY Mans Flower" for a colorful
border once worked out and planted
becomes a permanent feature, return
ing year after year, and it saves the
effort involved in arranging temper
airy paintings each year.
Spring is the ideal time to plant
most perennials, with the possible ex-
ception of those which come into
bloom in the very earliest weeks of
spring.
Perennials will grow in almost any
location, but thought should be given
to the proper position Of varieties. For
instance, one cannot expect to grow
water-side plants in a dry spot upon
hill, nor sun-loving perennials to
thrive in the shade. Nature is per-
baps the best guide in this, so around
a creek or pond. for instance, we may
plant Hemerocallis, Irises, Liatris, An
chusa or Funkia.
In a sunny border where the soil is
rich and no extremes of moisture con-
ditions are encountered, one may
plant to good advantage the old IA
vorites such as Phlox, Larkspur, Core
opsis, Shasta Daisy. Columbine, Can
terbury Bells and Foxglove.
There are so many attractive flow
ers to choose from that one is very
apt to forget the appearance Of unity
in the garden and select too many va
rieties to be used.
The distance between the plants is
a very important consideration as on
this often depends the size of the or
der. A perennial is comparatively
slow-growing subject which develops
its greatest beauty frequently after a
period of years. Those varieties such
