THE SUND MOVE TO ENLARGE WATER CARNIVAL Chairman of President’s Cup | Regatta Announces Ad- dition of One Day. The first step toward enlarging the Preisdent’s Cup regatta into “one of the greatest aquatic festivities in the coun-| try” was announced yesterday by John; A. Remon, general chairman. | To this year's regatta will be added an extra diy—september 28—to be set | aside for rowing, canoeing and swim-| ming events. The dates for the actual running of the regatta are to follow this, September 29 and 30. Because of the late dates this year the preliminary aquatic events will be somewhat of an experimental nature, with the idea of building up a greater program next year, Mr. Remon said. adding the committee expects to have several outstanding oarsmen and swim- ming stars take part. “With the addition of these aquatic events and the night marine pageant, in which we expect hundreds of beau- tifully illuminated boats to take part, | we feel that the President's Cup regatta can be built up to practically Mardi Gras _propertions,” Mr. tinued. “Washington has one of the finest water fronts and courses for an event of this kind that can be found BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT.

The sale of stamps to foreign collectors is a state foreign trade mo- nopoly.” | At a recent meeting of the Massa- | chusetts branch of the United National Association of Postal Clerks, held at Gloucester, Mass., it Assistant Postmaster General Joseph C.

Stiles | in “Stamps—an Outline of Philately,” | “would be amazed if statistics could be | placed before them which would show | the actual number of philatelists.” Mr. | Stiles insists that stamp collecting is “the most delightful and intriguing hobby in the world. J. P. Morgan the elder is supposed to have said that he could tell at a glance if an applicant were a safe risk to lend money, and Henry A. Diamant once wrote: “A banker, who is not a col- lector, told me of an incident of a young business man applying for a loan. Among other questions, he was asked one with respect to his habits. ‘I spend my evenings at home with my stamp collection,” he answered. And the loan was made, ‘because.’ said the benker, I would place infinite trust in a busi- ness man who collects stamps.’ " | Occasionally stamps of China show a wild goose, and the bird was the sym- | bol of the Chinese postal service in the days of the empire. An ancient legend | tells how a trusted friend of the Em- | peror once was captured by bandits and carried to a distant territory as a slave to tend cattle. The poor man was desperate in his anxiety to esca or, failing the attainment of his lil | erty, at least to communicate knowledge day he caught s wild goose in the field and, after fastening a written message to its tail, rel it to continue its migration south. By romantic chance the bird was shot by the Emperor and the message thus reached its goal. Of | course, a military expedition was dis- patched immediately to Tescue the captive and to punish the bandits. The goose became immortal in the story of the Hung Pein. “In France," says & release from the National Geographic Society, “the need for small ch: was so great (follow- ing the World War) that thousands of merchants wrapped postage stamps in wax paper and used the packages as small change. The average client did not bother to open the paper, but took STEAMSHIPS.

But only a single de- sign was used in the stamps. It depicts a ship plowing through the waves, and the craft was the yacht Hohenzollern, personal property of the former Gere man Kaiser, William IT.

Carrougher, | Maryland-New York Province, Wood- N€W York June 5, following an opera- stock, Md., are aiding foreign missions by collecting stamps, and they have issued a general appeal for assistance in the work. In their letter they say: Stamp dealers are continually on the alert to buy stamps, which they in turn sell to the thousands of collectors all over the world. There are various rea- sons which contribute to the value of stamps: Age, defects in printing, mis- takes, lines out of place, original value, overprints, and so on. Stamps may be valuable on account of their place in a collection; and this is the most usual reason. Dealers buy canceled stamps by the pound. Without any paper ad- hering to the stamps, it takes 10,000 stamps to make a pound; with a margin of paper of 1, inch around them, it takes 2000. It will be readily seen, then, that only a big organization, deal- ing in stamps by the thousands, could hope to make money. “But the Woodstock scholastics set out to create a great organization, and they succeeded. During the past year 10,000,000 stamps passed through their hands. In one year a total of $1.000 has been sent to the missions. A differ- ent mission is adopted each month, and the profits of the sorting for that month are sent to the missionary of the month Letters from the missionaries themselves y to the great work being done by __ STAMP DEALERS. _ H.
