his hobby which feeds thousands are
years ahead of Rose.
Renders idea has been a grand
one in piping times of peace. 1t help
ed soften the blows of depression
for thousands. It still is a boom TO
many. In time of war, he ought to
be drafted to supervise and extend
like activities into hundreds of. other
cities Of the country.
For years Render, an advertising
man by profession, used to divert
himself by more or less piddling
around with flowers and q few vege-
tables in his own back yard.
He loved order and beauty and one
of his principal dslikes was directed
| at filthy, barren back (and often
iront yards in the Slums of the city.
Nearly fifteen years ago he took
notion to do something about it eX-
ccpt dislike it. and so he went to
one Of the public schools in the less
exclusive sections and propoSitioned
the children. He told them he'd
furnish seed and instruction, and
give cash prizes, if enough girls and
boys would plant gardens.
They did, and he did; and it turn
cd out that so many Of the children
were enthusiastic that Render knew
he really had something He received
calls from practically all the schools
and his hobby spread into hundreds
of back yards. The garden contest
became the outstanding event of
every school year.
Also the thing became a financial
burden, but the local newspaper
came to his aid. They give the prizes,
though Render still has exclusive di-
rection of the program. This year
there were 429 school gardens emit
cred.
When depression brought ERA and
WPA and all sorts of alphabetical
relief, Retired fell naturally to leader
ship in the garden project" in New
Hanover. And there, at least, the
no garden, no relief" rule Gotten
completely ignored elsewhere) was
enforced.
It worked we'll and when the Fed
eral government dropped its require
ment and its garden projects, the
city created the position of director
of city gardens for Render and he
kept right on.
Each year politicians have sniped
at him. It has often seemed that his
work was doomed because of failure
of the governing boards to give him
any financial support. But somehow
or other, money or no money, poll
ticianS to the contrary, the gardens
have been planted with Render as
director.
The seed is given to WPA work.
crs and other families of low income.
Render gives advice and moral sup
port. From one end of town to the
other, from one end of the year to
the other, he goes, promoting the
garden idea wherever he finds a
vacant back yard.
Right now we are trying to get
our gardeners interested in putting
up stuff for the winter, says Render.
THE way things are with the world
now, I believe in preparedness for
all emergencies"

Even the maestro who made a
lady of the saxophone has trouble
from neighbors when practicing.
Sigurd Rascher, saxophone vir-
tuoso who will be soloist today with
the National Symphony Orchestra,
recalled at the Mayflower yester-
day that every one from the police
in Berlin on down" had objected at
some time or other to his seven
hours a day of practicing with the
instrument that usually means swing
and jazz music.
"Once, in 1882, in Berlin a police
man knocked on the door and told
me I would have to get out of the
hotel. I objected and he agreed to
call physician to come and listen
and determine if the saxophone is
dangerous to health. I left before
the physician came" he added.
At other places it was the women
In hotels that objected.
$50 far nobody in the United
States has objected, but I don't
know about this hotel yet. Call me
tomorrow just before the concert
and I'll let you know"
Mr.. Rascher, a 32-year-old Swede
who graduated out of European jazz
orchestras into symphony orches-
tras, said he hadn't played a note
of jazz for more than II years.
Since he quit an orchestra that
played in Switzerland, Holland and
Germany for three years. he has
been discovering new musical abil-
ity in the instrument invented just
100 years ago by Adolphe Sax.

Anderson and several thousand at
the mems institutions.
A movement is now afoot, she told
the women gathered in the Ameri.
can Association Of University
Women clubhouse, to give the checks
or cash personally to the workers
instead OF mailing them to families.
Amusing Anecdotes.
Miss Hironimus, who was at Al
derson for 13 years, filled her de-
scription Of the penal institution
and its population with amusing
anecdotes and such interesting bits
Of information as the following:
That fourth class postmistresses
sent to the institution are usually
guilty Of bad bookkeeping rather
than intentional crime.
That most women law violators at
Anderson are native-born Americans,
rather than foreigners.
That the more cultured the mar
eotic addict, the lower she sinks.
That the mental age of inmates Is
similar to that Of the average popu-
lation.
More Respect for Anthem.
That the Anderson women show
more respect for the national
anthem and their Government than
some Washingtonians. (She found
disrespect of Government here
shocking" as compared with Alder
SOM.
That keeping the women from
Evening star., 1940-03-03

working was ono Of the sreatest
puntshments for misbehagior In the
institution.
That the white women, when they
fight, pull hair and scratch, while
the colored women always use 4
weapon.
That the most popular movie ever
shown at the institution was "The
Story OF Louis Pasteur."
That most OF the inmates are
married and blame their husbands
for their lost freedom cat the
mems institution, she said, the
wives are blamed.)
She said she could usually guess
the violation by the nationality.
Italians produce the most counter
feiters; Poles and Germans the
most liquor law violators; Mexicans
violators Of the immigration laws,
and Chinese and Japanese, the mar
cotic laws.
Oldest Inmate Is "a.
The oldest inmate, she said, was
"a years old. The woman, she said
should never have been there, but
"the judge didn't know what to dc
with her so he sent her up to ua
for the winter"
She won q round of applause
When she told the women-all law
yers-that no lawyers ever had been
residents OF Anderson, but four doc
tors have been sent there for 'vio-
lating narcotic laws.
A great deal of talent in all the

arts has been found among the
women, she said.
You'd be surprised ct the hid
den talent you md when you get
500 women together" she declared.
She told about three Chinese girls,
taken from California to Anderson
BY q marshal and his wife.
Touching Scene.
THE girls had learned Just q few
words. They said Bye, pora.' to
the marshal and Bye, momma,' to
his wife. Then they started to cry
and the marshals wife started to
cry and the marshal excused him
self and rushed out blowing His
nose. Then we cried, too"

values will be displayed for a week

NV.
The display, part of the Worlds
Fair exhibit, is made possible by
the Genealogical Institute of Amer
lea, the De Beers Consolidated
Mines, Ltd, and associated COM
panies of Kimberly, South Africa.
The exhibit will be drama OF
diamond mining-from the "blue
rock" of South African mines to
the glittering ring on the finger of
the bride-to-be.
Processes in diamond mining will
be shown, including tiny carts
emerging from a mine shaft bear
Ing precious stones, classification
and grading of the stones at the
mines, and the Transformation of
pebble-like stones into beautiful
gems.
Also exhibited wi! be photographs
showing mechanical operations in
recovering the diamond, maps, mod
els of diamonds famous in history,
and thousands of dollars worth of
both rough ad cut diamonds of all
qualities.
'One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the show will be the beau
tiful $65, 900 Orchid diamond, the
only one of its kind in the world
Jewel experts describe it as "the
iridescense of pink tropical sunset
splashed across miles of horizon
caught up and distilled into gem
that you can hold in the palm of
your hand"
E. P. Henderson, assistant cura-
tor of the Smithsonian Institution
In Washington, said of the Orchid
diamond, "It is the best pink stone
have ever SEEN"

"The saxophone acoustically gives
player more flexibility than any
other wind instrument" he said.
so it responds more readily to the
intention of the player. That's the
big reason it is so popular with jazz
orchestras. But most people have
forgotten that it can do something
| else.
Il didn't like jazz very much. It
was too noisy. I feel I'm not COM
petent in jazz. When I feel like ex-
pressing myself I play a, Swedish
folk song"
And what makes his virtuosity
more amazing is that Maestro
Rascher has never had a saxophone
lesson. He "broke in" on the clar-
met, but after three years Of prac-
tice, decided he needed to earn a
living. The saxophone provided a
fairly comfortable living for three
years with the jazz orchestra. Then
came a serious illness and while re-
cuperating and later teaching wood
work, he experimental with the
instrument.
Later he gave concerts throughout
Europe Since his arrival here he
has been soloist with the Boston
Symphony and New York Phil
harmonic.
He left Sweden, where he is a
professor at the Royal Danish Con-
servatory in Copenhagen, late in
October after the war forced numer-
GUS concert cancellations. He left
behind his wife and son, 4
weeks old.
Il guess when I return he'll be
playing the sax" he said:

Drama of Diamond Minino

One of the least known facts
about diamond mining to be brought
to light by the exhibit is the vast
quantity of diamond-bearing rock
which has to be mined to produce a
tiny diamond one-quarter of carat
in size. To secure a diamond this
size a mass of rock 75,0O0,0O0 times
the diamonds weight must be
brought up from the earth.

Shipyards Are Booming While Canada Hustles

VANCOUVER, B. C. - Life has come back once more in Can ada's shipyards. Thousands of workers here now contribute their share in the $5OOOO,OO0 ship construction program which Hon. C. D. Howe, head of the De partment of Munitions & Supply recently announced.
 Work is now continuous in this industry so hard-hit by depres- sion days. Each man employed there seems to realize that he is doing something in his own way, to help in the organization of the defense of Canada and its Allies. The vessels actually being built in the 15 Canadian shipyards are designed for anti-submarine war fare and minesweeping.

MAJOR GAFFNEY FLIES BLIND" TO ANCHORAGE

Alaska's first long-range blind flight" was in the Fairbanks avia tion log book last week.
 Major Dale V. Gaffney, com manding officer of the Ladd Field Air Corps Station near Fair banks, returned to the city's air port about midnight last Tuesday night after having completed a flight to Anchorage navigating by instruments only.
 The major was accompanied on the flight by Lieutenant Marvin E. Walseth of the Air Corps. The under the hood' trip provided an authentic orientation test also for the Summit and Anchorage radio range stations. Major Calf ney flew the beam to Summit, then bore over to Anchorage on the signal emanated by the Civil Aeronautics Authority's range station there.
 The "beam-line" rout2 between Fairbanks and Anchorage was a two hour 45 minute flight for the air corps men, cruising easily in an army observer.
