That women are valuable in police
work Is evidenced by the fact that
Scotland Yard, London, wants sew
enty women to fill certain jobs. AS a
matter of fact, this great English
organization is looking for the per
feet policewoman.' Age and other
requirements are, from twenty-four
TO thirty-hve years old, unmarried.
good natured, sympathetic and
cheerful. and there are stipulations
about health, eyesight and educa-
ton. Officials say that college grad
yates make the best policewomen.
Women in this department are paid
up to $40 a week and already the
Metropolitan Police Force includes
twenty women police s%ergeants and
three women police inspectors.
More than one-fourth of Ameri-
cas- 444 women holding aviators'
licenses live in California and the
entire number range in age from l6
to nearly 60, according to records of
the Burea uof Air Commerce. Inc

Miss Susan Brandeis has been
nominated by both Republicans and
Democrats in New York's Legisla-
ture for reelection as a member OF

There is a great opportunity for
women 10 write plays. but they
must be good ones, according TO
Miss Theresa Helburn, executive di-
rector of the Theater Guild. Miss
Helburn thinks the reason women
do not shine as playwrights is be-
cause they are more interested IN
romance than in play ideas. How
ever, she has hopes that the younger
generation will provide a really
good playwright of the g%entler sex.

FINDINGS" ARE
NEEDED BY WPA

Do you collect buttons. buckles.
needles. thread. braid or similar
findings" and then eventually
discover that Il great deal has been
accumulated with little chance of
ever being used? If so. cheer up for
your work hasn't been in vain. You
now loom as a good samaritan who
may do much TO alleviate an acute
clothing problem among Montana's
needy.
According to a statement issued
today by the women's work division
of the Montana WPA, il appears
that the little item of findings" has
assumed important proportions.
Having already produced more
than half a million garments to
meet a constant heavy demand
WPA continues TO operate sewing
rooms in a majority of counties.
with some 2200 nov EN-
ployed and 10000 yards of mater
ial on hand 10 continue this needed
production. But new regulations
have brought a hitch which, unless
remedied, means that hereafter
many of WPA's shirts and skirts
will be button-less. buckle-less or
un-trimmed.
AS an employing agency. WPA
a now provide little more than
labor on its projects. Diligent efforts
have been put forth by this agency,
the State Welfare Commission and
various Boards of County Commits
sioners. until it appears that eX-
cept for the little item of findings
about S1.00 worth of which are
used by each WPA seamstress each
month-the program might we'll be
continuing at top speed.
Accordingly. the women's. work
division requests that findings be
turned over Immediately 10 the local
WPA sewing room or WPA official.
If this is not possible, mail them TO
the Director of Women's Work in
your district WPA office. And while
about it. donations of discarded
clothing and other articles which
car be remade, are always welcome
in the sewing rooms, civic-minded
persons are reminded.

HEATHER DRUMS
SPREAD GOSPEL
T0mtom Means of Com
niunicatiOn Between Dis
tant Mission Stations

Vatican City (U.P) The African
drum is proving to be a valuable
instrument for spreading the Gospel
In Africa, according to q report re-
aching the Vatican from the Apos-
tolic Project Of the British Gamer
oons, Mgr. p. Rogan.
Mgr. Rogan, member Of the Hill
Missionary Society, stated In his
last report to the Holy Congregation
for the Propagation Of the Faith
that the value Of the tomtom drums
as means Of communication be-
tween distant mission stations was
proved with surprising results for
the first time In Catholic history
during the Holy Week services Of
1895 at Soppo, West Africa.
The project said that he was
passing through Soppo during Lent
and succeeded in blessing and dis
tributing Holy Ashes for local Cath
echists scattered III small villages
Of the entire district.
The native Christians were sum-
moned to the village Of 6oppo by
bAtS AAAJOAstiAtS ROhAAAAA5o Va seAsAvSA@s
drums. The local drummer arose
with his"call" another operator OF
the nearest village who, In hts turn,
broadcast" the message 10 other
villages. All Christians OF the re-
gion were called to Soppo TO attend
mass early next morning and re-
ceive the Holy Ashes from the
hands of the Apostolic Project him
self. thus avoiding q trip OF many
miles 10 the Central Station.
Mgr. Rogon also pointed out that
the loo drummer Of eoppo tapped
message 10 q riverside village
which he was 10 visit the following
day. ordering that q fresh fish
luncheon be prepared for the miss
ionary father instead OF the custom-
airy chicken as u was Ash Wednes-
day.
A high dlgnltary of the Congre-
CATION for the Propagation OF the
Faith declared that Mgr. Rogon's
report proves what q blessing the
African drum language will prove

FRANCE TO HAIL
ANTHEMS BIRTH
First Celebration to Be
Held in Marseilles
Next July

Paris ~ CUP -- France will cele-
brate this summer the march Of the
Marseilles battalion across France
during the French Revolution by
ceremonies In ever town, village and
homlet through which 1t passed.
France thus will recall the famous
march which popularized the song
Of Rouget de Isle, the Marseillatse,
and made 1t the national anthem OF
the French Republic.
The first celebration will take
place In Marseilles on July IA, the
anniversary Of the fall Of the Bastile,
on the spot from which the Pro-
vencial volunteers started on their
march to the Rhine. Moving north
through the Rhone valley, the chain
OF ceremonies will conclude In Paris
on July as, each place along the
route holding reunions at precisely
the hour on which the historic
column reached their town.
A chain Of monuments and me-
mortal stones will be laid fran the
Mediterranean port to the capital,
dedicated by mayors and prominent
citizens, while popular festivities and
gay street dances will capture some
of the enthusiasm and excitement
of the past. Scenes rivaling the
armistice celebrations and remi-
niscent of American July 4 festivi-
ties, with a dash of French Latin
Gayety are forecast for the affair.
The celebration has been pre-
pared by the Popular Front govern
ment with the collaboration Of local
authorities. 1t marks the attempt.
which has been successful, on the
part OF the Popular Front parties
10 make the Marseillaise again the
vibrant hymn of triumph which It
was In the days Of the French Rev
olution. At the same time they af-
firm with 1t the patriotism and
unity OF France In the face OF out
side dangers and internal quarrels
among different factions.

HOME FOR APRIL
COLONIAL IN LINES
Baltimore Architect Designs
Featured House for
Realty Groups.

The home Of the month for April,
announced by the land developers
and home builders division Of the Ma
tional Association Of Real Estate
Boards and described In detail in Nc
Calls magazine for April, came from
Piper g. Hill, Inc, Baltimore, Md. The
original plans were drawn by Alexap-
der G. Porter, Baltimore architect.
The house, which is being built by
realtors over the country, to be ready
for public inspection next month, Is
handled exteriorly in the traditional
Southern Colonial manner. Its long,
narrow, rectangular shape allows the
rooms to face both the front and the
garden. The living room has ex-
posures on three sides, making 1t an
unusually cheerful room. The covered
porch across the garden side Of the
house is connected to both living room
and dining room by French doors.
It seems highly appropriate to fur
nish such q house in the traditional
Southern manner. Moreover, such
furnishings carry special Importance
now, with interest OF people generally
turned In this direction by the re-
construction Of Williamsburg, Va.
Williamsburg colors-Colonial yellow,
blue, green and gray-are right for
this house. Williamsburg fabrics
chintz, leather and satin damask-
would offer the right note. Colonial
wall papers, Venetian blinds, dados,
Sheffield silver and Colonial brasses
and pewter would add charming detail.
Living Room Suggestions.
Carefully worked out for every room,
the williamsburg" treatment sug-
gested for Aprils home Of the month
includes for the living room: Walls,
gray-green; woodwork, waxed pine; !;
draperies, gold satin; rug, gray-green; !;
upholstery, green, gold and crimson;
furniture, mahogany with several
blond pieces; accessories, porcelain and
brass.
Two stairways, back and a front
one, lead to the upper floor, and the
bed rooms are grouped about the two
resulting stair Railways. This ar
rangement has advantages over the
usual method of grouping bed rooms
around one small, central hall. There
is more privacy and an opportunity OF
avoiding the usual family noises that
permeate a whole house OF the usual
type.
The home of the month for March
selected jointly by the land developers
and home builders division OF the Ma
tional Association OF Real Estate
Boards and McCalls magazine as one
of the most livable Of the 1887 small
homes, comes from Detroit, with J.

BY LAWRENCE CROLIUS.

IN THE past when many houses
were being built, the architects
must have been little dubious
L about bath rooms. They must
have had somewhat the same feeling
about these important rooms that they
had about horseless carriages and
other w-fangled" ideas. This aver
sion to adequate sanitation Is very
forcibly brought out in so many OF
our finest old homes, and certainly
many owners have wished that they
could do something about bringing
that unfortunate condition to an end.
In these modern times it isn't neces-
sary to have giant space in which to
locate a small swimming pool OF a
bath tub, together with other equip
ment built along the same ungainly
lines. Plumbing fixtures, like other
modern devices, are being made smaller
and more compact so that they can be
fitted into places that heretofore would
have been pretty well jammed up with
a single device.
Take for instance the placing Of a
complete lavatory under the stairs in
that recess you have been filling with
assorted trash. BY using an up-to-
date lavatory of the compact, stream
lined type, together with an equally
compact toilet you can create valu-
able room out of waste space. 1t only
