John J. Pershing, chief' of staff, will be entitled to the full pay of his rank after his transfer to the retired list Saturday on ac- count of age, according to an opin- ton rendered by. Maj. Gen. Walter A. Rethel, judge advocate general of the Army, to Brig. Gen. K. W. Walker, chief of the finance de- pariment. It appears that the act of Congress creating the office of “general of the Armies” for the special Lenefit of Gen. Pershing provided that the rank should con- tinue during the life of the in- cumbent, but did net = ity that he hould r ive the full pay of the rank after retirement. Be- cause of that omission the ques- tion arose among the military au- thorities as to whether he was not subject to the general retirement statute fixing the pay of retired officers at three-fourths of the pay of their rank at the time of re- tirement. The ive pay of a gen- eral in the Army is $1 00 a year, with allowances, and the retired pay is $10,1 without allow Whatever action is taken by th.

BUENOS AIRES, September The prosecution of Luis Angel Firpo, Argentine pugilist, in New York on gration laws is causing caustic com- ment, in the Argentine newspapers. This comment is epitomized in the English language newspaper, the Buenos Aires Herald, which says the news of the steps taken against Firpo “can hardly come as a pleasant item to those who believe in friendly feel- ng_ap ard down the Americas.” “We know,” the newspaper con- | tinues, “that loftier spirits will scorn- fully refuse to allow that a boxer could materially influence public opin- ion, but we_ question whether there_is a delegation frim the Holy Name committes in conference with repre- sentatives of the offiee of public build- ings and grounds.

Of | course, it was a vacation with pay, {but not pay for the newspaper man. Rather, it was pay for his grocer, his buteher and others who provided provender and shelter for him. The prospect wasn't very alluring. There was all the country, all the mountains, all the seashore and even New York to go to, and the poor newspaper man's poverty weighed heavily upon him. Finall he became convinced that there wi no way out of it—he must stay at home and use his vacation for rest and relaxation.

With this prospect, not the best, yet not the worst, the newspaper man began his vacation. The start was inauspicious. The weather immediately became too hot for tennis. It was too warm for bridge in the evening. One must keep cool while playing bridge or lose one’s friends, the newspaper man rea- soned. One could not keep cool. hence one must give up bridge.

DROOP & SONS C0., 1300 G STEINWAY and other HIGH-GRADE PIANOS WASHINGTON, D. €, SEPTEMBER 7, 1924—PART 1 been successful in inflaming flies to the point of concerted attack and the player usually finds it necessary, after a few minutes of play, to be- tome the attacker himself. This method of attack has been found best: Grab nozzle in hand, see fiy on piano or any other article of furniture, floor, ceiling or wall; sneak up behind him and point nozale. The fly feels the cooling breesze when the nozzle gets within six inches of him. He sits perfectly still, comfortable and at peace with the world. The nozzle is pushed forward slowly— until one become adept—until it is within two inches of the fly, and then there is no fly. This slow motion, however, is elemental. The joy of the game is to be found in adeptness. One soon becomes proficlent in bicking flles out of the air, through screen doors (this is brutal and, the inventor of the game belleves, unnecessarily hard on the fly) and from countless other places from which the fly heretofore has been able to sit and sneer at the old-fashioned swatter. Warning: Decoys, such as sugar and molasses, are not barred by the rules of the game. They, however, put the fly at a disadvantage and rob the game of a great deal of the sport- ing element, and the discoverer dis- countenances their use. “If there's health in swatting the fly, there’s bliss In squashing him,” is the discoverer's description of the delights of the game. that they will enjoy it as much as he did.
