HOLADAY IS STUMPED: CHARLESTON VISITORS THINK OUR HILLS FLAT John Holaday, court reporter, has a new conception of the hills and valleys around Richmond as a result of having entertained some West Virginia visitors Sunday. Holaday, thinking he would show the visitors some scenery and forgetting for the moment that they came from a mountainous section, took them out in his car for a ride in what he imagined was a rough section of the country. Just as the machine was going down one of the steepest hills In this part of the country and as John was watching the road with all his might, one of them said: "My, isn't this fine farming country, though! So flat and nice!" "I don't know what the good Lord had in mind when He made Indiana, but he didn't have Virginia, that's sure," commented another visitor, the son of the mayor of Charleston. "For 15 years we were unable to get out Charleston because there were no roads." "I don't see what you want a road like this for on the edge of town," was another comment. The visitor was referring to the South E street road. t FRANCE WILL NOT RECOGNIZE SOVIET UNTIL AMERICA DOES (By Associated Press) PARIS, May 8. "France," said a high official of the government, today, "will not recognize the Russian soviet government until the United States does. France has kept a free hand in the matter and it makes no difference what situation the Genoa cbnffence takes." "The recognition of the soviet regime," he added "will have to wait until it has -Droved its eood faith in keeping international engagements ! and shown itself a representative government. There is no longer hope in official circles of an agreement with the Russians at Genoa, according to this official, who predicted that the Russians' attitude would become more and more uncompromising as their chances of obtaining an immediate loan in cash from the governments diminished. He expressed the view, however, that the Genoa conference had done some Work and said that the results! achieved by the economic and financial commissioners were generally acceptable to France. Propositions from the soviet representative or other conferences to follow that at Genoa, to be held at Prague, or elsewhere, are not favored by the French government. It was learned from the same source that France would insist that the situation be cleared by the usual diplomatic negotiations before again attending a meeting to discuss questions of such importance as those dealt with at Genoa.

FREE INSTRUCTIONS IN SWIMMING AT "Y" TO BE OFFERED SOON Free instructions in the art of swimming will be given to all boys In the city desiring to be taught hy George H. Corsan, swimming instructor, of the International Y. M. C. A.in the "Y" pool from May 15 to 20. Instructions will also be given to the men of the city. He will teach BWlmmin? In the man ner in which it is most simple. He wiu also help swimmers in developing the art. Following is an article written bv George J. Fisher, M. D., who is now ueau scout master or the Boy scouts or America, in Mr. Corsan's book entitled "At Home In the Water." "In 1913, according to the United States census statistics, over 7,000 pernyjua urai imrii uvea mruugu auciueiuai drowning. It is a strange fact thatj many wno are daily exposed to danger of drowning do not know how to swim. This is true of lumbermen, of men in the navy, of many who are members of crews on ships and boats. It is not under-estimating to say that fully 25 per cent of all young men and boys in the United States do not know how to swim, and the percentages is, of course much larger when applied to both sex and to all ages. Should Know Swimming "Every one should know how to swim, for at least three reasons: It is a splendid form of exercise, iudsred from the standnoint of nhvsininfrv re sulting in improved health accompaniea Dy ease and grace of carriage; it imparts self-reliance and courage, which become elements in one's character, increasing one's power both for good and against evil; and finally it may prove the means of saving life. "Realizing from these facts the necessity for action, the Y. M. C. A.'s have undertaken to teach swimming upon a very comprehensive basis, their slogan being 'Every Man and Boy in America a Swimmer. "As one of stimulating. interest the International committee employed George H. Corsan to give his entire time for a period of several months to instructions upon a wholesale plan, which he has proven himself preeminently qualified to carry out. His unique method has been uniformly successful in giving to the person who does not know how to swim a quick and ready mastery of the necessary strokes."" 200 RESERVE PLAGES FOR BANQUET TONIGHT ADDroximatelv 200 nprsnns have made reservations for the first annual banquet and meeting of the Richmond Community Service, which will be held in the St. Mary's community hall at North Seventh and A streets, Monday night at 6:30 o'clock.

FOULKE GIVES SHELLS TO EARLHAM COLLEGE Dr. Alkn D. Hole, curator of the Joseph Moore museum of Darlham college, announces the addition to the department of conchology of an unusually interesting and valuable collection of shells through the generosity of Mr. William Dudley Foulke. These shells are from the beach near Sanibel. Florida, and were for the most part collected by Mr. Foulke himself, the past winter. They include a very full representation of the gTeat number of especially fine specimens for which that particular portion of the Florida coast has been noted. Earlham college feels under especial obligation to Mr. Foulke. since he made the collection primarily for the Joseph Moore museum. Notable among the varieties added to the museum in this collection may be mentioned the Junonia, cylindrical in shape, and marked with somewhat rectangular, chestnut-colored spots, a species much prized by collectors because of its betuty and because of the difficulty of obtaining good specimens. Only a few years ago as much as $200 was paid for a single specimen. They are now found somewhat more frequently, so that this extremely high price is no longer obtained, but they are still very rare. Another shell almost as rare as Junonia is red in color, flat in form, and marked with coarse ribs ; its popular name is Lion's Paw. In addition to rare species, the collection is of interest and value because of the unusual beauty of many cf the Individuals of species which as species are common. Here Is a whole series characterized by tints and shades of purple varying from one shell to another by almost insensible graduations. Another series even more striking has orange and deep yellow iones, while an occasional very rare lemon yellow tint occurs. This collection, making a notable addition to the large number and gTeat variety of kinds of shells already In the museum, is to be placed on exhibition as soon as the necessary work in preparation of records, labels and suitable display space can be completed. Natives of New .Guinea plait their hair to protect their heads from club blows.

PROCLAIM BARKOOT SHOWS FIRST GLASS; ARRIVE IN RICHMOND The K. G. Barkoot Shows, the oldest organization of its kind in America, arrived In the city Sunday evening and is now set up on the streets at Fourth and Main in readiness for the forthcoming fervities given under the auspices of the Veterans or Foreign Wars which begin Monday night. The shows have been exhibiting in Dayton for the Disabled Veterans of the Great War and all three of the Dayton dailies made special comments upon the cleanliness and attractiveness of the exhibits and entertainments. "The Barkoot Shows were well censored last night and if there were any objectionable features they could not be discovered," says the Herald of April 18. "This company at least can run an entertainment of this sort in a clean, moral and respectable man ner," declares the Day to News. "The cleanliness is not all on the outside. there is not an attraction that will not bear the strictest scrutiny," quotes the Dayton Journal of the same date. Expect Big Attendance With these credentials, there Is little doubt that the veterans will have a big attendance at their festival and the attractions will be well patronized, to the financial benefit of the organization. There are a round dozen shows, with five attractive riding devices of the latest and safest makes and description; a clever educated horse and circus stadium, an educational exhibit in the shape of "The Submarines" which serve to introduce working models of subsea boats and torpedo work in an immense tank in full view of the audience. Thi3 attraction ha a gained much favorable mention from many of the congressmen and senators who witnessed it at Washington, besides many other features indigenous to a celebration of thi3 kind. "Decency first" is a watchword and not a byword with the Barkoot Shows, and tonight they hope to prove to the most rigid censor that there really Is a worth-while attraction here for the convention of the vets.

Patterson, founder and chairman of the board of directors of the National Cash Register company, Dayton, O., died suddenly Sunday aboard a train bound for this city. Mr. Patterson was stricken witn a heart attack. He was seated in a chair chatting with his valet. hi only companion, when as the train passed through Kirkwood, Camden county, he suddenly fell unconscious. Dr. T. F. Trudeau of Saranac Lake. N. Y., who was in the next parlor car. was summoned and tried to revive the stricken man, but all restoratives failed. He. had been a sufferer from a chronic cardiac condition. The body was brought to this city, and the authorities after an investigation, ordered it sent to an undertaking parlor. William Roberts, the valet, wired the family and Is . awaiting instructions, v . Mr. Patterson had reservations at a beach front hotel, where he was to have remained for two weeks for the benefit of his health. Arrangements probably will be made to take the body to Dayton Monday. John Henry Patterson, who started life as a farm-hand near Dayton, and established the biggest business of its kind in the world on the land that he had plowed as a boy, retired as president of the National Cash Register company on July-16, 1921. Upon retirement he was elected chairman of the board of. directors, an honorary position. Afthe time of retiricg, he was 77 years old, having been born on a farm December 13, 1844. . He did farm work,, canal toll Collecting, retailing of coal, mine operating, and finally "went west" to seek fortune as a ranch and orchard owner before he hit upon- the central idea of his career-manufacturing and selling cash registers. Mr. Patterson's mother, in telling or her son's life on the farm, said: "He used to be called at four o'clock in the spring, summer and. fall. He had to make his grandfather's fire, carry up enough wood to last all day, split kindling and get it ready for the night. After breakfast he would turn the calves out, put up his dinner and go to school. In the evening it was necessary to drive up the calves, feed and bed them, carry up wood to fill the boxes and after supper to study lessons." Set Up Factory After his venture' as a ranchman in Colorado he returned to Dayton, where he set up a factory for making cash registers, employing at first 13 men. After achieving success he aided to transform a slum factory district into sanitary and better working conditions. In 1901 France made him Chevalier of the Legion of Honor in token of his Interest in employes and in 1919, Miami university, at Oxford, Ohio, gave the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws for welfare work and advanced business methods. In the Dayton flood of 1913. Mr. Patterson staved off the threatened destruction of his business and helped the city to recover from the disaster. His civic work resulted in placing the city under commission manager government and his appointment as chairman of a commission by the governor of Ohio. Through Mr. Patterson's personal supervision, $2,000,000 was raised to prevent future floods in Dayton. Mr. Patterson was the son of Colonel Jefferson Patterson, and the grandson of Colonel Robertson Patterson, founder of Lexington, Ky.
