|Dr. George 5. Rice, S3,
Mine Engineer, Dies

DR.. George s. Rice, SO. who had
been chief engineer of the Bureau
Of Mines for ~ years. died yester-
day in the Washington Santa
rum, Takoma Park. Md.
DR.. Rice was recognized inter-
nationally as an expert on the
prevention of coal dust explosions
in mines. AS chief mining en-
gineer. he was the leader in the
long experiments that led to dis
covery that many explosions in
coal mines resulted from dust
rather than gas, as formerly had
been supposed. He advocated the
spreading of non-inflammable
rock dust. which has prevented
many disasters. DR.. Rice retired
in 1887. and since then he has
been a consulting engineer. His
home was at Wellington Villa,
south of Alexandria. q
Born in sClaremont, N. H.. he re-
ceived his mining engineering de-
gree from Columbia University.
During his career. he was instru-
mental in development of a sys-
tenn of ventilation Of the Holland
Tunnel under the Hudson River.
Surviving are his widow, Mrs.
Sarah Marie Rice; a daughter,
Mrs. Katharine Mollison. Welles-.
ley Hills, Mass: son. j. Brewster
Rice, Short Hills, N. j.; a brother,
Chester Rice of New York, and
four grandchildren.

is so amazing a daily diffusion Of
international consci ousness?"
His answer was: AFTER living
in many lands and for many years
in this, I have ccme to see that a
mans vision of country not his
own is like the reverse side of a
brocade - all the threads are
there but not the subtlety of
color and design. When this is 30
of men trained by travel and
experience, how should it not be
so of the myriad readers whose
minds are daily divided by a
hundred imperfect images, none
of which can be even approxi-
mately realized?"
Gift for Phrases.
| He had a gift for a turn Of
phrase that made his remarks
remembered for years. For in
stance: The 1924 Democratic
convention in Madison Square
Garden. deadlocked between AL
Smith and William G. McAdoo,
approached 100 ballots and the
end Of its third week. Bill Lewis
was heard to say in the press box:
I've been here so long, I'm i'm
pinging on eternity"
That was remembered and
quoted again and again in his
later years as something he had
said about his long stay in
Washington.
A Press Club wit said he should
be called "Sir Bonmott Lewis"
Here are a few samples:
The best thing to do for Anglo
American relations is to leave
them strictly alone"
Il feel like a lion in a cage
of Daniels"
When the depression arrived, he
asked: who killed the goose that
laid the golden age?"
OF the London Naval Conference
OF 1880, he said: America will
always be for faith. hope and
parity"
OF Columnist Dorothy Thomp-
son, he said: That woman has
discovered the secret of perpetual
emotion"
And to an eager young woman
reporter of PM-who advanced
that all-too-often excuse of
journalism-that her paper pub
lished only facts-he said: Don't
tell me you only publish the facts.
No one knows what a fact is.''
One Of his favorite stories about
himself was that a group OF
Americans at a Manila bar asked
him to join them in their con-
demnation of the British. When
he protested he was British him
self, they said:
why, Bill. we always thought
you were a Harvard man putting
on the dog"
Knew America Well.
He used his writing gift con-
scientiously to keep the readers
OF the London Times informed
about American public opinion.
His articles in the Times read
like a confidential report to the
Prime Minister, and it is Nborted
that minister after minister had

Visa Regulations

tougher for tourists and other

In the past a visa for either
nation was honored by the other

For more than one trip a new visa

Sir Willmott went to New York
and spent it.
Then he went back to Tokyo
and worked on the Advertiser
Some of his best stories of this
Tokyo period were about Lafcadie
Hearn, the literary eccentric since
immortalized by critics. In Ma

Child Foot Health

THE NATIONAL SHOE institute
advises that when your child's feet
are measured for new shoes, you be
sure that he is standing with full
weight ON both feet. Straighten his
socks or stockings by pulling at the
toes and adjusting the heels. Then
see that the shoes fit by observing
the following points,
/. When the child is standing,
there should be one-half to three
fourths inch from tip of the longest
toe to end of the shoe.
2. The heel should fit snugly and
be wide at the base to provide q
good foundation for walking.
g. If the shoe is wide enough
across the vamp SO that you can
pick up slight wrinkle, you can be
assured that the child's foot will not
be cramped.
4. The arch should conform to the
natural arch of the foot.
S. Be sure that the youngster tries
ON both shoes.
Regardless of how old a child is,
he should never wear his big broth
er's outgrown shoes. It's misguided
economy that saves a few dollars
now, only to cause pain and dis
comfort in years to come. Each pair
of feet develops differently and one
persons shoes will not fit another's
| feet.
/. In selecting shoe for baby, buy
one with puffy toe. In fact, the
only part of baby's shoe that
should fit snugly is the heel, which
should grip the foot firmly, as the
heel controls and balances the foot
The instep should be loose. If it's
too tight, it stops blood circulation
and presses the arch bones out Of
shape.
Cut a chi1d's toenails straigh
across-no shorter than the toe:
themselves.
Children's feet should be bathet
every day, and the toenails brushed
A little baking soda in the wate
will loosen the dirt and soothe tn
feet.

Every Day Problem


HOW CAN teach my children
manners? They are 8. and 4. The
oldest Two are boys. Can you sug-
qest any books TO help me.-Young
Mother.
An excellent book for any young
mother is "You and Your Family"
by Moore and Leahy. Also eff You
Please" by Betty &c Briggs Allen-
and "This Way, Please" by Eleanor
Boykin. Little children are irni-
tators. They do as parents, older
brothers and sisters and playmates
do, rather than as they are told 10
do. Good manners when boiled
down are simply an attitude to 9TH
ers-kindly, considerate, gracious to
everyone no matter to whom.
Two recent incidents are 1lustra-
tive of good and bad manners. Two
brothers, 9 and 5, were waiting on
the street corner for the bus. They
were friendly boys and were easily
engaged in conversation. When the
bus stopped the younger boy start
ed to get on but his brother held
him back, 'Let the lady get on
first" There were no empty seats
and we stood together in the aisle.
Soon someone got off and the boys
stood aside for me to sit down
Another time a woman and her
small son about years old were on
the bus sitting across the aisle. Sew
eral got on and an older woman was
standing beside the boy. The moth
er, calling him by name, said ''Let
the lady have your seat" The boy
very Indignantly said, mo, don't
want to-" The mother tried to per-
suade but he argued he had the seat
and he wasn't going to give it up.
The mother smiled that more or less
prideful smile that a parent has
when child does something they
think is cute. Probably she felt he
was sure of his rights and could in-
sist upon them. Anyway the boy
sat and the older woman stood.
Manners are attitudes one has be-
cause they have been seen done by
those we have been associated with
: You cannot make child polite by
telling him to be so. The two boys
had seen their father step back tc
let woman go through a door first
Maybe they had asked their father
"Why?" and he had said ''Gentle
men do not go ahead of ladies anc
older people,"
