Despite Protests of Managers. BERLIN, lune 12. The decision of the highest tribunal abrogating Police President VonJagbw'a edict against tin: wearing of hats by women tn the thea ter is regarded by male and female theater visitors with d Iff (tent feelings. Last August VonJagow Issued orders that any director permitting women to wear their hats in the boxes or stalls of his theater should pay a fine of $25 for each offense. The directors appealed to the minis tei of the interior, who -laved the or der until the highest court had decided on It. From the mere male point of view there were excellent reasons for the edict. Legally, however, the tliea ter directors are In the right. The law is that police orde s ate only sustain able when upsetting them would cause injury to the community Such a contention could hardly be maintained in >hc present case. v« one director said the police might as well forbid people with unusually long bodies from going to the theater, and quoted the example of a friend whom those behind shouted at to "sit down” until he rose from his seat and showed that he had been sitting all the time. Th<» fait Berliner is naturally pleased by the abrogation of the order, for she will not have to go through the com plicated process of fixing on her hut again after the preform.! net.

Experts Show Way to Pull Drowning Person From the Water. The safe method of drawing a person aboard a rescuing boat is shown in the accompanying illustration. Recurrences of the two fatal acci dents at Piedmont park may be pre vented. almost invariably, if the res cuers in the boat which hurries to the aid of the victims will maneuver so that the rescue can be made from the stein. The -eseuer should stand near the stern of the skiff and grasp the victim so that he may be drawn aboard so closely to the broad end that his weight.: will not tip the bpat, and thus pra- ' clpitatc a second accident. If there ate two victims floundering In the waler, both, should be forced lo clutch the craft as near as possible to Hie stern. Thus, the boat will be bal anced until both victims can be drawn aboard. The illustration is posed for The Georgian by Miss Vera Thomas, of At lanta. a skilled swimmer. Tile picture shows the weight of three persons on tlie sl'crn ami the craft fully maintain ing its equilibrium. ALABAMA TRAVELERS TO BOOST UNDERWOOD MONTGOMERY. ALA.. June 12.

Newark HENS PIET ON DIET TD W RED EGGS English Scientists Also Expect to Develop Record Pro lific Fowl. LONDON. June 12. —The imagina iv- oxpe; imenters who control the Cambridge School ’of Agriculture arc engaged in the interesting endeavor to make hens liy red eggs. There is always the best market for lien’s eggs which ate of the richest red-brown, a. color that is natural to the eggs of several varieties. Unfortunately. the most prolific lay -1 ■ s w ill not follow the fashion, with the i-'sult that the eggs of the differ ent varieties, for eximple. Leghoi ns and Buffs, have a quite different mar ket value. The Cambridge "Mendeiians" hope that they will be able to produce at will a brown-egg-laying hen of pro lific habit, Just as they have produced ■ ong rust-resisting wheat of high y:*>d. by working on this curious law of .Mendci (i. e.. by selection of the "patents" and then of certain of the "offspring" to be "parents' in turm. H*m have so fat proved admirable examples of the Workiftg of the law. in resnret of single and double combs, 'till tn espect of color; they are per fectr. obedient to th* proper scientific '•> inciple. Tney "behave" as they ought, to use the technical verb. There is also the subsidiary question of food. A good canary breeder can make his birds the right color mere ly by the right Selection of foods. He can at will make a Norwich canary orange, or a bullfinch black. Simila: - iy. it may be possible to alter th* egg color by food a c well as by hereditary influences. Ts mustard, as has been lately prov ed. makes bens lay better, why should not colchicum or what not mafte them Jay move marketable eggs'.’ Some day. perhaps. Cambridge will achieve the poultryman's ideal of a hen that lays pet anpum 250 two-ounce red eggs.’ FATHER.
