Helmet Lends Thrill
to Visitors.

Summer visitors and buddine
scientists have found a new thrill
in Bermuda. One of the most pop,
ular diversions of the summer is
amateur helmet diving, made pos.
sible through the government &C.
quarium on Harrington sound.
although not a new idea, this
is the best opportunity the public
has been given to enjoy this
unique sport, and hundreds OF
sightseers, including many won1-

vantage of the privilege" says
a bulletin from the National Geo
graphic society.
Heavy Helmet Becomes Light
"After visiting the aquarium,
one of the finest in the world,
more adventurous ichthyologists
add to their acquaintance among
Bermuda's fish families by de-
scending beneath the clear, calm
waters of Harrington sound to
view them in their natural sur

But when they had parted it was

Ferdy was settled in a suite Of
rooms connecting with Magda's

It was Ferdy who brought to Vic

opened the shining, brightly colored
little booklets eagerly, studied floor
plans, discussed 'Deck b. and

trip.

said one day innocently.

pleaded. Magda looked at her, and
the color rushed into her own face.
But, what am I to do, Vic? I
can't stand this!" Magda suddenly
muttered defensively.

girl, had been too young to feel the
shock that came when her father. Keith

unobtrusive soul, he is now employed
as an obscure chemist in San Fran
cisco, at a meager salary. His wife.
Magda, cannot adjust herself to the
change. She is beautiful woman, fond
of pleasure and a magnet for mems
attention. Magda and Victoria have been
down at summer resort and keith

leaves for bridge party, excusingf her
self for being such runaway. Later
that night Victoria is grief-stricken when
she hears her parents quarreling. The

approve of Magda's mad social life and
they quarrel frequently. Magda receives

the newcomer in Neptune's realm
is ready to look out of the glass
window in the front of the helmet
and enjoy the strange spectacle
OF being at home with the fish.
Underwater View of Fish Ideal.
Wandering through this twi-
light, underseas world one has the
queer feeling of being a disem-
bodied spirit, of pressing against
warm wind, of wading, not up to
ones ankles only, but with ones
whole body. Distances under wat
er are strangely deceiving. The
diver progresses through sunlit
water for what seems city block
only to be told on his ascent that
he has covered no more than a
score of feet.
"Those who think all fish are
silvery and torpedo shaped are
surprised by the variety of beauti-s
full colors and the strange shapes
of Bermuda's fish. While one gets
some slight idea of them by gaz-
ing down through a glass-bot-
toned boat towed slowly over the
reefs, one can see them still bet
ter, without distortion or fore
shortening, through the helmet.
Colors of birds and butterflies are
lasting, but the radiant, iridescent
Colors of fish fade at death.

coloring that flashes and changes

Of being Observation-Disclosures!
Magda broke off to say in amused
scorn. '"He knows more than I Of
everything-bookS, music, people.
And his attitude toward life is SO
beautiful, so simple and eager and
fine"
There was a silence. Magda
smiled and wiped suddenly wei
eyes, and Victoria smiled, too, a
mothers patient smile for a child.
$50 what?" the girl asked good
naturedly.
$50 nothing, my darling, that's

lence.
mo-" she went on presently, end
ing it. "Ferdy gets here next week,
and Lucius goes down to his wife
and the little girls in Carmel, and
that's the end"
The day moved on.
That night, when they went down
stairs to join the Kendalls, and be
carried off for a dinner, Victoria
saw Lucius and woman and two
gawhy dark shy girls, all sitting in
the great red chairs Of the hotel
foyer, evidently waiting. for some
one. Was it for Mother?
Whether it was or not they all
came over to Vic and Magda, and
there were introductions. Mrs.
Farmer was a plain stout whole
some looking little woman in
glasses, with ropes Of oily gray
brown hair wound about her head.
The girls were like her, although
both gave promise Of some beauty.
Ann. Constance. Victoria.
''Vicky," said her mother, in the
course Of the next few days, "when
you fall in love, make it with a man
to whom you can be an inspiration.
It's a sacred thing-it's worth all
the pain and the ache, to inspire a
truly great mani"
At first Victoria felt most pity for
the man. He was clever, keen, at
fectionate, simple, and he was suf-
fering cruelty. After a few weeks
she perceived that her mother was

She halted at the sight Of

| toria's hand was taken in q BIZ
hard hand. She liked the man a
once, one must like him; there wa
/ something about Lucius that dis

Il hearts. Something simple anC
i friendly, and a little uncertain anC
tiraid, and at the same time some
thing definite and vital; there was
world of mirth, a child's secret
and delicious merriment in his gray
eyes.
He was not smiling this morning;
he seemed serious and burdened,
Immediately the pleaSantrieS OF
greeting had died away. Victoria,
presently going back to her room,
could hear through the open door
way the gravity Of his tone as he
and her mother talked at the win
dow, their heads together.
II can't, Magda," he said more
than once. ''I'm so sorry-I can't"
But when Victoria came out again
to find her mother alone, there was
al. air of disappointment or defeat
in Mrs. Manners attitude. She was
glowing with inner fires; she was
shaken, laughing, ecstatic. She put
her arms about Vicky; held the girl
away from her to laugh into her
eyes.
MY darling, do you like him?"
Victoria regarded her with a
smile that had small heart in it.
"Isn't the question-do you?"
'Vic, on the steamer, the day
we left Buenos Aires, we found each
other!" Magda said. ''He came up
to me and said, Aren't you the
Valdes' friend, Sonora Manners?
I don't know how he ever nerved
himself to do it, for he's not like
that as a rule. But he said he had
seen me at the country club. We
hardly spoke to anyone else on the
voyage; we had our meals on deck,
we talked and talked as if we never
could talk enough!
For the first time in my life, Vic,
I have met a man who stirs in me
something-something that might
have been, might have had?" Mag
da continued. ''He loves me, I
know that, although he's never told
me so. But it isn't that. It's the
companionship, the exquisite delight

fish, and many others dart past
the helmets window.
"Many forms of sea life, other
than fish, attract the attention of
the diver. On the rocks are
chitons, related to snails, whose
shells are arranged in overlap
ping plates. Pulled loose from q
reef, they curl up like miniature
armadillos. Lovely sea anemones
wave pastel-colored tentacIes to
and fro like the languid arms Of
odalisques.
ION the sand are puffy black
sea puddings, tiny scuttling crabs,
crawling starfsh, and spiny sea
urchins. Stepped on, the spines Of
these so-called 'hedgehogs of the
sea- frequently break off in ones
foot.
Bermuda is an ideal place
in which to observe fish by means
of helmets for two reasons. The
Gulf stream, which flows like q
warm sapphire river through the
Atlantic north of Bermuda, pro-
tects the islands from cold and
insures teeming supply of semi
tropical fish. The islands are coral
formations on the top of a SUBJ
marine mountain, and thus scien-
tific dives may be made very near
shore, to observe both deep and
shallow water species of fish,"

Cecil Rhodes Knew
Little About America

The fact that there are today
more Rhodes scholars from the
United States at Oxford than from
all the British doninions put to-
gether, is due to an extraordinary
error on the part of Cecil Rhodes.
"He believed there were still
only the original thirteen states in
the Union of America" says
Sarah Gertrude Mi1lin in her BIZ
ography of Rhodes. 'Nor did the
solicitor who drew up his will,
know better"
In assigning his scholarships,
Rhodes allotted so many for each
state and colony and a compi-
mentary few for Germany.-Kan-

my. Then won't it be better?"
Magda looked at her daughter
somberly.
"I'm forty-two, Vicky, and I've
never-liked-anyone BEFORE" Mag
da faltered, with a little difficulty.
''It isn't only myself-truly, Vic, it
isn't. But it's to hurt him so hor-
ribly-to ruin his life, now when
he's just beginning to succeed
that's what kills me-" Magda whis-
pered.
"But you're separating, Mother.
Wen be gone in a few days. That'll
help" Victoria said, forcing her
self to gentleness and sympathy.
'That's Just it, Vic. It'll kill
him." Magda shut her eyes, and
tears squeezed themselves under
the lowered lashes.
"But he'll have his work, and his
wife and children" Victoria be-
gan and stopped.
Ellis wife means absolutely moth
ing to him, Vic. They've been moth
ing to each other for five years. He
told me So"
"But Mother" she presently of
fered doubtfully, doesn't a man
belong to his wife?"
To this Magda superbly made no
answer. With an expression Of pa
tient endurance she rose and swept
into her room.
When the bright soft morning
came, Magda was exhausted. Her
face was bleached and blotched
with tears her eyes swollen, and the
hair that had so often been pushed
off her forehead during the fevers
of the night hung in careless locks
and showed darkness at its roots.
Victoria was dressed in silk pa
jamas, having her own breakfast,
when her mother awakened; she set
Magda's tray on the trrnbled bed
before her. But her mother could
not eat. She drank a little coffee,
set the tray aside. ''Vic," she
breathed, what shall I do?"
Mother, you mustn't cry so.
Ferd's coming up this morning;
he'll be here for 1unch!"
"Ferd knows" her mother whis-
pered, not opening her eyes.
"Ferd knows!" Victoria was star
tied.

differently.

''He won't hear Of it."
"Ferdy won't!" It was an excIa-
nation.
