Durant Files Petition
In Bankruptcy

New York-A comeback attempt
by William Grape Durant brough,
the former automobile magnate and
spectacular stock market dealer
into bankruptcy court.
As president of the Pomeroy-Day
Land company, he filed a volun-
tary petition in bankruptcy which
listed his assets of $3.50 worth OF
clothing.
He has liabilities of $914,231, the
petition said.
Once leader of the bull forces in
Wall stree and fouEder of Genera
Motors in 1908, Durant was in Sc
clusion in his Fifth Avenue home
and his secretary issued for him a
terse statement which he refused tc
expand upon.
my petition in bankruptcy filed
is due to frequent and repeated
court proceedings instituted by a
few creditors, representing less than
five per cent of my total obliga-
tions, who have attempted to OBJ
tain a preferential position" the
statement said.
"Action by the creditors referred
to has prevented me from giving
my best efforts to rebuilding my
fortune and I no longer propose to
be harassed and annoyed. l wish
to state that all creditors without
exception will be treated alike and
if fortune favors me all will be paid
in full"

Fish has enough ozone is the planting
Of vegetable life in the aquarium. Get
couple Of small snails for a street
cleaning system and you have a bal
snced' community. Fish seldom need
the water changed-just add q little
now and then to replace evaporation.
OF course the water plants need some
thing to grow in, so that means o
layer about 1-inch thick of dustless
sand and small gravel on the bottom
of the aquarium. Sunlight in the
Summer Is liable to cause too much
oxygen in the water by the manner in
which it affects the plants. Then
Sammy and Hortense goldfish get an
overdose and either become Ill or turn
up their fins and pass on to the next
world. Better keep the bowl out Of the
sun until Fall.
Fish food is about the same Winter
and Summer. All fish like small in
sects. A fish resident of Washington
used to be very fond of the fieas that
mis- owner occasionally found on the
household pup. Whenever the dog was
combed, the fish would come to the
top CT his house and wait. Sure
enough, he'd eat his flea. As long as
they held out he'd be there. He must
have eaten too many because one day
he gave hop that would have done
credit to q kangaroo and disappeared
behind radiator. When rescued he
was beyond human aid, Just gave hop
or two and Joined his ancestors. After
that q netting was placed over the
aquarium and remains there. The fish
still eat neas, but have no chance to
practice jumping liz one.

MOST proud owners of goldfish
AA absolutely refuse to believe that
their gilded darlings are first cousin to
the ordinary, every day carp. Further
more, If breeders didn't keep a watch
full eye over goldfish they would re-
vert back to the greenish-hued frog
from whence they came. There's no
cause for worry, however, as long as
we have the Orient with us. Fancy
fish seem to be special pets Of the JAP
anese and Chinese. The uglier they
can develop some of them, at least
from the Occidental point of view, the
better they like it. Take for instance
the Celestial Telescope. Now, there's
a goldfish who can cause q nightmare.
The secret of his breeding still remains
in the Orient, to the delight of some
imaginative Americans. The rest of
the tribe are more pleasing in appear
ance. They range in price from cents
to several hundred dollars. One can
set up housekeeping with q couple Of

very low cost.
There's one thing on which the au-
thortties seem to agree-that is the
shape Of the aquarium. While there
may be many q fish who has lived
. normal span of life in globe, q
goldfish should be able to call q
rectangular aquarium "home." The
globe doesn't allow much Of the sur
lace of the water to reach the air.
Since fish do breathe oxygen, it is
important that the water in which
they live have a proper supply. An

DEAR MRS. POST: At a recent
lunch I upset glass Of wine on
the dress of the lady next to me at
the table. 1t was one of those rare
moments in life when one almost
wishes to be transformed into one OF
the mute fixtures of the room. The
unfortunate guest left town next day
for her home, which is in a distant
city. I apologized and she could
easily tell that I was terribly sorry
but Is there nothing mSre I can dc
about it? The dress must have been
ruined, or at least 1t had to 60 to the
cleaners.
Answer: 1t was unfortunate. but
there Is nothing you can do now ex-
cept hope that it never happens again
Had the accident happened to a very
intimate friend, you might then have
tried to have the dress cleaned, and
If unsuccessful. replaced it. But this
would be. possible only under very
unusual circumstances.
Dear Mrs. Post: Recently I visited
the. old town of Williamsburg. and it
was my privilege during the afternoon
to stand near Mrs. Roosevelt. ]
wanted to bow, but no one else in the
room showed any sign of recognition
so I refrained from doing so. What
should I have done?
Answer: II you had ever been in
itroduced to her. you could have gone
up to Mrs: Roosevelt and recalled
yourself to her But you would not
bow to her without knowing her or
without receiving some encourage
ment from her, which she would
probably give you if she saw you
looking at her, since she Is notable
for her Taciousness.

Dear Mrs. Post: One of my favorite
teachers is sailing soon on the Queen
Mary, and I should like very much
to give her a little present. I would
rather give it to her here than tc
send 1t to the. boat, since we live far
away from New York. In the first
place, will it be proper to give her
something and do you think it would
be presumptuous if I took it to her
house, and second, what would you
suggest that I could buy TOR several
dollars?
Answer: I think it would be very
nice indeed to give her present and
to take 1t to her personally. and ]
think one of the best things you could
chcose would be book.
Dear Mrs. Post: What shall say
when people ask about my husbandi
You see I left my husband several
years ago and came here to my aome
town with my children. We are not
divorced but he made it impossible
for us to stay with him. The children
are half grown and I don't want to
jeopardize their happiness in thi;
town, which is small and not very
willing to overlook divorce.
Answer: I think the best thing tc
do Is be frank about it, and say tc
some one who asks about him. "Un.
fortunately, my husband and have
separated"

The Old Gardener Says:

The beautiful blue anchusa has
won favor In many gardens. 1t
has q somewhat ungainly habit,
but the flowers are extremely
lovely, rivaling the larkspur and
the forget-me-not in their deli
cate shades. If the seed pods are
kept removed, the plants will
bloom steadily for many weeks.
But If one cares to sacrifice q
few blossoms one can start new
plants about the middle OF July
by the simple process Of digging
up q root or two, washing them
free from earth and cutting the
main tuber into pieces 2 inches
long. These pieces should be
planted about IL inches apart in
q good seed bed, where they will
soon take root and start to grow.
