'Boosters of Kottbus, Where American Aviators Landed, Advertising With Chamberlin-Levine Pictures. . .Berlin, Aug. ¢ M — Kottbus, which attained world fame over _night through the forced landing of Clarence D. Chamberlin and Charles A. Levine, is determined to stay on the map. It has adopted American boosting methods for this purpose. Every letter that leaves any de- partment of the city government must now be sent in envelopes on the face side of which are the por- traits of Chamberlin and Levine, with quotations on what they think of the city. The date of the landing of “Miss Columbia” is also given. On the flap is depicted an air- plane flying from New York to Berlin via Kottbus. New York is characterized by sky acrapers, Ber- lin by the Brandenburg gate. Ambassador Schurman Touring Germany Ambassador Jacob Gould Schur- man {s determined to know thor- oughly the country to which he is aceredited. The ambassador has mapped out a regular series of journeys through Germany, in the course of which he proposes to study the land and the people. He began with Heidelberg and the country around it, then attended the Shakespearian festival inn Bochum, the center of the Westphalian coal district. He has also visited the Hanseatic towns of BRremen, Hamburg and Lubeck.

Rerlin Swindlers Using Calling Cards Stealing calling cards from house doors has become a favorite sport of 'German swindlers, Cards with High sounding titles are especially sought. In Germany persons are often in- ' troduced merely by the fact that the upon | the recent first airplane marriage in | poor | introducer gives the person to be introduced his visiting card. A clever swindler, who obtains posses- sion of the visiting card of Baron X and knows that Baron X is a good friend of Count Y can negoti- ate a “touch” quite effectively by using Baron X's calling card as a card ot introduction to Count Y. Since calling cards are tacked to the wall next to a bell-button or affixed in lieu of name plates &re often solled, the swindler also tries to steal calling cards by pretending to call on a man with strong social connections. While the servant an- nounces his name, the swindler helps himself to the calling cards iln the tray of the ante-room.

Queen Mary's Maid Has Queer Duties Miss Jean Hamilton Bruce, who has been appointed Mald of Honor to Queen Mary, has some queer dutfes to perform under the ancient regulations. The regulations declare that maids of honor shall “eat ham in the morning; ride over hedges and ditch- es on borrowed hacks; come home in the heat of the day in a fever, with a red mark on the forehead from an uneasy hat. They must chatter an hour and thence to din- ner.” Miss Bruce obtains many social advantages with the appointment and probably will have £1,000 on her marriage—a rule which was institut- ed by Queen Victoria. London Revives Old Wedding Custom An old custom was revived here when a prominent society woman carried a bouquet at the wedding of her son. Many years ago it was the custom of mothers and near relatives of the bride to carry small bouquets at smart weddings in London. The custom is still followed in man couintry districts, but lapsed, so far as London is concerned, about 20 years ago.

French Physicians Report New Disease A new disease has been introduc: ed to the notice of the French Acad emy of Medicine by Dr. Leon Ber- nard.

Many Night Bathers At French Resorts Moonlight baths are becoming al- most as popular as sunbaths at Eu- ropean resorts this summer. The only people who have objected are casino proprietors, who expect tour- ists to spend their time at the green tables after the sun has gone down and everyone has dined. At Deauville, Trouville and other resorts within easy distance of Paris, the casinos have rarely been crowd- ed this summer on the few warm moonlit nights the weather man has provided. The beaches, on the oth- er hand, formerly left to the waves at night, have been crowded with bathers, ukulele players and singers. City Plan Provides For Two New Towns “Beautiful Paris” will he “Ugly Par” if city zoning and other im- provements aren’t adopted immedi- ately, says M. Chardon, member of the Academy of Moral Sciences. Chardon has submitted a plan of modified city zoning to the municipal councll. Chardon’s greatest plan, however, and one that has already received sound support, is for the erection of two new towns in the vicinity of Paris, one of them for factories and workshops and the other to be ex- clusively residential.

Enthuslasts of this 1atest branch of widespread occup: tion are increasing each year, and this city has several pheasant breed- ers in its confines. Different methods have been tried by pheasant breeders in this city, one of the systems for raising the ring- necks being the adaption of the bird's natural surroundings during | their growth. A visit to the grounds | of Everett M. Williams of Corbin | avenue, gives an example of this method. Mr. Willlams obtained pheasant eggs from Torrington and put them under a hen for hatching. Out of 20 eggs, all of them hatched, al-| though casualties among the chicks during the first few days are report- ed heavy, according to the local poultry breeder. About 15 of the chicks lived through the first two weeks of their life, the weaker ones dying off in the first two days. Dur- ing the first two weeks the pheasants were fed a speclal brand of feed. Soon the little chicks are able to get around. Williams allows them to roam at large with the brood hen, who takes care of them adequate scratching food for them and gen- erally seeing that the little balls of fluff are kept out of harm’s way. Development Begins Soon the pheasants begin to de- velop and lose their cuteness for a rangy appearance, The feathers are mottled brown at this time and the chicks are fast runners, scooting over the ground much faster than any of the other barnyard fowls. They are cooped every night but this practice gives way later on, to allow them to roost wherever they choose, still under the able tutelage of the | hen. After about two months’ time, the sex of the birds begins to make itself recognizable. The cock pheasants lacquire a reddish tinge to their jbreasts, while the hens are not graced with this distinguishing tint. The tail feathers on the cock pheas- ants also grows much faster than on the hens. At about this period in | life the youngsters begin to become antagonistic towards the chickens in the yard with them and one small pheasant can easily chase five or six full grown hens about the yard. They also begin to discard the lead- | ership of the mother hen and take to roosting farther and farther away from the barnyard they have grown up in. A few mishaps have happened to the chicks since their freedom, soon | after hatching. One was stepped on as it crouched in the grass to hide. Another fell prey to a roaming cat. Another fell sick and died—one by one the birds have come down to| seven pheasants, all hale and hearty and pugnacious. Mr. Willlams has fond hopes of weathering through the remaining pheasants until they | are full grown when captivity comes | fairly easy to the game birds. Try to Fly A precaution which will soon be ohserved by the local breeder is the clipping o fthe birds' wings to pre- vent them from fecling the urge of the great open spaces and flying the coop. Several years ago Mr. Williams brought several small pheasants | through all the ills that beset pheas- | ants only to have them vanish into the woods one Septemebr morning, i never to return. i Another pheasant enthusiast in! | this vicinity is George E. Prentice of | “The Ledges” Worthington ridge, Berlin. Mr. Prentice, while he does not specialize on the raising of ! pheasant chicks, has centered his! cfforts on the procuring of odd; breeds of pheasants. A visit to his | coops give the bird lover a view of | some of the most beautiful pheas- | ants living. Mr. Prentice’s pride is | the “Lady Amherst” pheasant, liantly plumed and as gracetul as a living statue. This bird is endowed | with a black and white ruff at the | nape of the neck which he can |spread to almost four inches wiam.. |The hens are without gaudy plum- | age, but are a trifle larger than the "ordinnry hen pheasant. Other rare broeds are included in his collection, ! ome rivalling the beauty of the “lady Amherst” prize. Popular Game Bird Pheasants have taken the place | long held by the ruffed grouse as the most popular game bird of this ion of the country.

The Lirds inhabit stubble fields and Lrashed woodlands. Their | protection lies in their ability (o run very switily while out of sight of the hunter, although no real sportsman ever shoots a running pheasant.

BANS NONOPOLY ON RAZDR BLADES Pederal Gourt Gonseat Decree Aftects Gllett New York, Aug. 6.—A consent de cree signed Thursday by Federal Judge Goddard perpetually restrains the Gillette Safety Razor Company and five other defendants from con- tinuing dealing in safety razor blades in a manner that violated the Sherman Anti-Trust law and the Clayton act. The five defendants are the United Cigar Stores Com- pany of America, the Unico Distrib- uting Company, a subsidiary of the TUnited; D. A. Schulte, Inc., the Louis K. Liggett Company and the National Cigar Stands Company, which is affiliated with the Liggett Company. The government attack was di- rected mainly against the Gillette, United and Liggett companies, {which have been under surveillance for a year. It was learned, accord- ing to Alexander B. Royce, a special assistant to United States Attorney Tuttle, that during the last three years the Gillette Company has been operating under contracts by which the three major defendants obtained large quantities of safety razor blades’ at preferential discounts and at prices much lower than those charged to the regular wholesale and jobbing trade. Swapping of Blades Charged It was also. charged that the de- i fendants could use the Gilletts blades in lieu for cash for procuring from the regular jobbers safety razor! blades of other makers at a cheaper rate than the manufacturers could sell them. In this way, it was al- leged, the defendants were in a posi- | tion to control the market. | The importance of the Gillette | product and the power of that com- | pany were shown by a statement in | the government’'s complaint that at least 75 per cent of the razors used lin the United States are of this type, that the Gillette output is consider- ably larger than the combined out- put of competitors and that the Gil- lette working capital Is at least three times as great as that of its largest ' competitor. | Because of the facllities of the three major defendants and the chain stores operated by them Gil- | lette, it is alleged, sold them any ! quantity of razor blades they desired ' so that they were able to serve the retall and Yhe wholesale trade. Mr. | Royce in his complaint charged that | the conditions created by the agree- | ment between the Gillette company| and the other defendants aided the | Gillette company in attempts to ac- | complish a monopoly in the razor blade business and injured the trade and goodwlill of competitors. “We found,” smaid Mr. Royce, that so many blades purchased from the United Cigar Company. Schulte and Liggett were being ex- the other razor manufacturers were in obtaining orders from customers of long standing who were lately ac- quiring their blades by the swapping method.” Agreed to Stop Practioces Mr. Royce sald that after he had advised the defendants of the gov- ernment’s Intention to present charges against them, they agreed to stop the practices complained of. The terms of the decree perpetu- ally enjoin the defendants from sell- ing or bartering Gillette blades in any manner which may affect the | trade of competitors of Gillette or that may tend to create a monopoly in interstate trade. Th2 defendants also are enjoined from entering into any agreement for the fixing of yrices for blades or the territory in which the blades may be purchased and sold.

Most of the hills, lakes, ponds, and even soil in this section of Connecticut were left here some 20,000 years ago when the great glacier finally spent its force and had to retreat before the return of a warmer cli- mate. At its fullest extent the fce stretched over the whole state as far as Long Island, burying hills and valleys alike beneath its huge !and relentless mass. In order that the glacial remains may be better understood, it may be well to describe how a glacier works. This has been learned from study of glaciers which exist at present in Greenland, the Alps, and other places, as well as from the evidence left behind by that which buried Connecticut. A glacier is a great mass of snow and ice parti- cles ground and pressed together and moving irresistibly outwara or downward from certain centers. That which passed over New Brit- ain had its origin in eastern Canada | and spread southward, sweeping away everything in its path. It gouged out great amounts of soil, ground off the edges and tops of hills, and carried with it the rocks | and dirt thus picked up, leaving them far from their points of ori- gin. The whole surface of the earth was changed when the glacier re- treated, and geologists have been able to discover just what altera- tions were made, Plains Formed - ‘Where the water from the melt-. ing ice was not confined to definite channels or places of deposition, it carried the soil picked up by the glacier and spread it out over the country as a plain. Such a plain is |that at Wallingford. In depressions left behind by the gouging of the ice, lakes and rivers were formed. One occyrred at Plainville, a river being dammed and a great lake re- sulting. The soil carried into this by the post-glacial rivers was de- posited as sand ,resulting in the sand plain which covers a number |of square miles in the vicinity of that town. \ Where the water in these glacial lakes was turbulent the finer par- ticles of soll were retained hy the water, but they were carried out into still, deep water and deposited there. When the lake became drained, they emerged at the sur- face as clay beds like those at Ber- lin and Milldale. The Berlin-Mid- dletown deposit occupies a flat, narrow strip along the Sebethe river, It 1s about 30 feet thick and is red brown In color because of the presence of iron. Less than one- third is kaolin (pure clay), the balance being quartz, feldspar and mica. In many places the ice decreased, losing its transporting powers and being forced to deposit the soil in | great masses. These elliptical hills, | usually about a quarter of a mile long and from 40 to 100 feet high, are elongated in the direction of the fce movement. The soil in them is not stratified, and no bedrock is exposed. The New Britain hills — Nigger hill, Walnut hill and Rack- iliffe heights—are of this type and are technically known as drumlins. The heights about Elm Hill bear the marks of similar formation. In many places the retrorgade movement of the retreating ice ceased temporarily, and the irregu- lar currents created by the mass of broken ice and material left along the edges carried the soil and deposited it in mounds or interlock- ing ridges known as kames. There are a number of these in the re- gion west of Cheshire. In other places long undulating ridges are found. These were made by the soil deposited at the bottom of rivers which flowed through dev- fous channels beneath the ice, They are known as eskers. Lake Com- ounce owes its existence to an esker which winds along the east- ern and southeastern side of it, holding the water within the bowl between it and the igneous rock pile on the west. Origin of Ponds The numerous small Jakes and ponds ahout New Britain, such as ‘White' Oak, Halmin's, Watkins', Loon lake and the Hartford reser- voir along the New Britain-Farm- ington town line, are in depressions scooped out by the moving ice, and |the little brooks which flow to and from them are largely of glacial origin. In many places huge rocks were carried great distances and left far from home. These are called resid- ual boulders and may be told by |their difference in composition from (the surrounding rock beds. There |18 one such boulder atop the Trin- |ity college escarpment in Hartford |and probably many others exist |about here or have been broken up to clear the land. ‘Where the ice pushed along rocky surfaces it etched the rocks, leaving horizontal scratches known as glacial striae or striations. These may be seen at White Oak in those places where the quarries have not |blasted away the original rock sur- face, Finally, the mantle of sofl in this district was transported here by the glacier. There, therefore, is little in the topography of New Britain which is not due tg the great gla- cier. NOTED JOCKEY DIES Niagara Falls, N.
