OF ms brilliant career.
Although he has been here since
last October, Harmon hadn't
played golf in this district until
two Sundays ago He got in nine
holes with Jimmy Demaret at
Plum Hollow.
A native of Florida. the past
winter was his first in the north.
He was Craig Woods assistant at
Winged Foot the last two summers
and before that spent several sea-
sons IN Chicago with Ky LaFoon
and Harry Cooper.

NO BLUE LINES

The most drastic suggestion is
that the blue lines be eliminated
and a single line Ia center ice be
the only division on the ice. This
would force revision of play
and cut oTsidcS by al least 80
per cent The Canadian Amateur
Hockey Association has expressed
approval Of such a change.
Adams said he IS against such

career. It was Of class OF men and
women In Government, so well
exemplified by Mr.. Forster, that Mr..
Roosevelt spoke few years ago in
connection with the. award to Mr..
Forster OF an honorary degree: "The
value Ct mans service to his country
is not always measured by popular
acclaim nor by repeated mention in
the daily and periodic press. In
every governmental organization,
local or State or National, there
exist men and women whose names
appear not in the headlines, but who
are principally responsible for the
actual functioning of a great and
complex machine" Mr.. Forster's
position, as executive clerk of the
White House, placed him at
peculiarly vital point in the control
of the great and complex machine"
OF our Government and gave him a
certain prominence. But he pre-
ferred anonymity, like thousands OF
other men and women in Washing
ton whose precise knowledge, loyalty
and respect for their work keep the
machine functioning from day to
day. Men like Mr.. Forster are ire
placeable; they become, in fashion,
institutions in themselves. He has
left fine record Of devotion to duty
and consistent skill and wisdom in
its discharge.

THIS AND THAT
By Charles Z. Trdcetcell.

The best place around the National
Capital to watch him is from the Calvert
Street Bridge over Rock Greek.
Here the buzzards often glide for
hours, looking with their perfect eye
sight for some stricken small animal
in the National Geological Park.
Mostly these sick animals are rats
or wild rabbits and squirrels which run
loose in the grounds Of the Zoo.
Even the Zoo keepers cannot see them.
but the buzzards can. 1t has been said
that they can see mouse from height
Of two miles.
Taking every advantage Of air cur
rents, pockets and the like. the buzzards
soar endlessly, with scarcely q nap Of
the wings.
Strange as 1t may seem, the science of
human aerodynamics has gained more
from the study Of fishes than from the
birds
This is because the flying fishes are
closer to airplanes than bird bodies.
Hawks were the first bomb divers
Even today they rival mans divers In
their swift downward descent.
Above all, the birds excel man. as yet.
In silent flight.
The nation which could make silent
airplane engines would have q great
advantage.
Most birds fly practically without
sound. When great fiocks of them are
on the wing. there may be some noise.
Some species, such as the mourning
dove, make . whistling noise on the
take-off. but are silent thereafter
1t Is said that whip-poor-w can fly
up to your very nose without you hear
ing 1t.
The various gulls are among our most
interesting birds. Our correspondent
will be interested in knowing that early
this spring hundreds OF gulls hocked
from the Potomac River to the Capitol
grounds, to eat there the various worms,
slugs, snails and insects brought up
by the rains. Mary observers thought
they were eating grass.
At one time the gulls were almost
on the point OF determination, through
the use OF their feathers for ladies' hats,
but laws were passed protecting them.
Then. In time, they became so plentiful
that they became something OF 4
nuisance, especially In England, where
farmers used fish scrap for fertilizer.
The herring gulls. in particular. are q
smart, persistent lot. They like clans,
and to break the shells they fly over a
bridge and drop them onto the span.
They will do this time after time, until
the shell breaks. One bridge keeper
reported that herring gull dropped a
clam is times from 4 height of 10 feet
before he got the meat.
1t is interesting to note that there
are more than 90 species of shrikes in
the Old World. but only two species
in the Western Hemisphere.

OF us, until the recent bill was enacted,
were working at reduced salary and
We put in the additional nine hours per
week without any compensation for 1t
and even now, with the increase, we are
paid but slightly more than so per cent of
our regular salary rate per hour for the
additional nine hours stretchout. Even
the low-salaried employees. with whom
we all OF necessity must sympathize.
under the present greatly increased cost
OF living were only in rare instances
given increases which were greater than
their regular rate OF pay for the addi-
tional nine hours required OF them.
1t is. therefore, apparent that Gov
ernment employees generally are re-
ceiving a greater income by working q
greater number Of hours but have re-
ceived no increase In their rate of pay.

Rudolph Forster

Rudolph Forster, who died yester-
day, was an outstanding representa-
tive of the highest type of public
servant. His absorbing interest was
his work. His duties required tact
and judgment, great discretion and
an encyclopedia knowledge of the
laws, customs and even the traditions
of his Government. His only master
was the people, whom he served with
out regard to the political tides
which moved them. President Roose-
velt's personal tribute to him yester-
day was a moving expression OF deep
affection and respect, one, Incl
dentally, in which he would have
been joined, had they been here, by
the seven other Presidents under
whom Mr.. Forster served during the
forty-six years Of his Government
