SCHOLARSHIPS
TO FREN!
BY N. Y. WOMAN
-
PARIS, Aug. 24 (by Associated
Press).—Ten scholarships open to
the most deserving French artists
sculptors, musicians, novelists, archi
tects, decorators, engravers and jour
nalists have been founded by Mrs.
George Blumenthal, of New York and
Paris and who is particularly noted
because of her gallery of French art
at her New York home.
Associated with Mrs. Blumenthal in
founding the scholarships are J. P.
Morgan, T. F. Ryan, E. R. Stettinius,
H. P. Davison, G. F. Baker, Charles
Hayden, W. N. Cohen and H. Walt
ers. These founders have just been
sent the following cablegram from
Premier Millerand of France.
“I have already expressed to
Madama Blumenthal the profound
gratitude of the French government
for the fine and useful foundation
for the benefit of the French thought
and art. Our young writers and art
ists, heroes or victims of the war,
will find in this delicate and affec
tionate attention of our friends of
America a new proof of the profound
and sincere friendship which unites
our two republics.
France had already honored the
memory of the intrepid soldiers of
jour army and will honor soon your
heioes of the war of independence.
I thank the faithful friends of France
who are instituting this permanent
monument to the glory of the French
thought and art.”
Scholarships are for 6,000 francs
each, the foundation being perpet
ual and they are to be awarded to
the most deserving candidates. Each
scholarship is tenable for two years
in succession and any scholar show
ing special merit at the 'end of that
time has a chance of receiving it
for a further period.
The candidates will be selected by
juries of ten men prominent in each
profession.
GIGANTIC PYTHON
HOLDS FULL SWAY
ON STEAMER BRIDGE
VICTORIA, B. C., Aug. 24 (by Asso
ciated Press).—For a brief time fol
lowing her departure from Singapore,
the bridge of the British steamship
Bolton Castle was under the control
of a gigantic python. In the early
morning of the second day out from
the Straits Settlements port the quar
termaster, at the wheel, was startled
by the massive snake’s head appear
ing at the pilot house door.
The python had calm and undis
puted possession of the pilot house and
the ship took a few turns without a
guiding hand before the snake made
its next move. The last the officers
saw of the visitor was its tail as it
disappeared overboard. It was one of
three shipped at Singapore to a men
agerie at New York.

EFFETE EAST
SPENDS! ON
TENNIS COURT
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 24 (by As
sociated Press).—The reason the East
has an advantage over all other sec
tions of the country in tennis is due
t.? the fact that Easterners have more
time to play the game, according to
Dr. Edward T. Pancoast, formerly
one of the best players in the city,
but now of Peru, Ind. He is visit
ing here.
Dr. Pancoast, an Episcopal clergy
man, is still a keen student and advo
cate of the sport.
“The Middle West has just as good
material to work with,” he said. “We
have stars who would be just as
good as the best in the East if they
all weren’t busy making a living.
“Take, for instance, Ralph Burdick.
Here is one of the leading players
we have who is so busy he feels
thankful if he can get a racquet in
his hands once a week. Ralph gave
Bill Tilden, the world’s champion, the
hardest kind of a battle a short time
ago and was leading 6 to 3 in the
first set and 5 to 1 in the second
when a volley broke the net. After
a 10-minute lay-off, Burdick lest his
terrific pace and Tilden finally won.”
POLICY SEEMS TO BE
TO “SOAK” AMERICANS
PARIS, Aug. 24 (by Associated
Press).—The queen of Rumania taught
luxury buying folk a good lesson re
cently when she entered an antique
shop. She picked up an amber stat
uette and asked the price. “One hun
dred and twenty pounds,” was the re
ply. “That’s too much for me,” said
the queen and her daughter, Princess
Elizabeth, who was with the queen,
added: “They must think we are
Americans.”
