roll graduates from the Ogonta School,

Sure Father Would Approve
"I am suro my husband would have
increased Lorcna's allowance if he could
have foreseen the rise in prices," bald
Mrs. Carroll. "Lorena Is far from an
extravagant child,' Unlike most girls,
she cares little for fancy dances, pink
teas nnd expensive parties. She Is an
outdoor girl and inherits her daddy's
love for horses.
"The bill we presented to the Surro
gate included $5000 for the upkeep of
Lorcna's limousine; $3000 for toilet
articles, halrdresslng, jewelry and
clothes; 82000 for education and church
contributions; $3000 for travel and
pleasure; $1000 for physicians, dentists
and opticians ; $2000 for rent nnd $4000
for household expenses.
"I don't believe in youthful mar
riages. However, the two children will
never have to worry, and that may
mean a lot toward their happiness.
We all make mistakes, but that is the
only way we can learn. Isn't it? We
learn so little by other people's mis
takes, it seems."
GALE MENACED SHIP
NOW IN PORT HERE
Eastern Chief Badly Battered by
Seas on Trip From
Sweden
Cnptaln Cox, of tho freighter East
ern Chief, which came near being
wrecked' on the way here from Sweden,
said today that the trip across was the
worst voyage he ever made over the
Atlantic. The freighter, tossed by a
high sea, was almost rolled over. It
reached this port yesterday, showing
many traces of the battering of the
wnves.
The Eastern Chief is an American
vessel. After taking on a cargo of
wood pulp at Hcnoistad, Sweden, the
vessel spent forty-six days in getting
across.
The giant waves took possession of
the Tessel and tossed It about so that
at times it seemed that the smokestack
was on a level with the sea.
The weather was rough from the
start, but it grew worse ten days after
the heavily laden ship left port, A
furious gale began to blow.
Waves washed completely over tho
vessel and the helmsman lost control.
Members of tho crew had to stay below
or cling to the railing to save them
selves from being washed overboard.
The water struck the ship with such
force that steel Udders were smashed.
Progress was so slow that the. sup
ply of fuel ran short and the ship had
to stop at Halifax, for coal.

Banker and Ornithologist, Who
Disappeared Six Years Ago,
Had Memory Lapso
WAS FOUND IN FLORIDA
Charles J. Pennock, banker and orni
thologist, who has been found after
disappearing six yenrs ago. Is visiting
his son, Richard M. Pennock, in Hnr
rlsburg. Tho bon is safety engineer of
the state workmen's insurance board.
Sir. Pennock will return to his old
home nnd his old life at Kcnnett
Square, Pa within n few days. He
has little to say about the six years
of waudering after ho vanished from
Philadelphia on the night o! his last
lecture at the Academy of Natural Sci
ences, May 15, 1013.
Ho was found in Florida where he
was living under the name of "John
Williams" by Dr. Klchnrd J. IlillHp.
123 South Thirty-ninth street, and was
brought back to Philadelphia, where ho
visited at Doctor Phillips's homo before
starting for Harrisburg.
Had Lapso of Memory
"There is not much to say," said
Mr. Pennock, in speaking of his sud
den disappearance. "I had been work
ing too hard and my health gave way.
All of my affairs were In good shape
and I simply wanted to go away. I
do not recall many of the circumstances
of my departure except that I went to
the south. I have been at a gulf port.
I suffered a loss of memory, but I spent
most of my time on the west const and
followed ornithology, C01m"':..lcfr,!0

deDr. Witmer Stone, curator of tho
Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sci
ences, is primarily responsible for Mr.
Peunock's return. Mr. Tcnnock. under
an assumed name, recently resumed his
old practice of writing concerning his
study of bird life.
Doctor Stone returned late In Sep
tember from an extended stay in Ari
zona. He found many manuscripts
awaiting his perusal which had been
submitted for rublicntlon In the orni
thological magazine. The Auk, of which
Doctor Stone is the editor.
Style is Familiar
One article had been forwarded to
Doctor Stjnc from the natural science
department of the federal department
(,f agriculture. It was a description of
a number of rare birds seen in I' Ioridn
and it was a noteworthy nrtlclc.
The name "Tohn Williams," which
was signed to the articles, was un
known to Doctor Stone. He had never
heard of St. Marks, Florida. As he
read the descriptions, written in the
precise and scientific manner of the
master ornithologist, Doctor Stone was
"I thought I knew all the men In
,i, mintrv who know birds this way."
ht mused. He studied the writer's
style closely nnd it Beemcd familiar,
no MA thn hnndwritinc.
Then Doctor Stone thought of his
intimate friend, Charles Pennock. Tho
night of May 15. 1013. Mr. Pennock
tiorf nt.tp.nded an ornithological meeting
at the Academy of Music. After the
meeting the two friends and lovers of
birds had walked together to the Broad
Street Station, separating at the en
trance. Mr. Pennock had not been
seen or heard from again after that
day
When the possibility of Mr. Pennock
A iit.v. i"i" ttt "' v inir ' p name
I --d JO.in 1 !.? in. -e same
m"nn occurred to Doctor dtone. ho dis
missed the idea as ridiculous and did
not mention It to nny one.
Meet in St. Marlts
Finally, however, lu Xovember, he
decided to consult with Doctor Phillips,
As a result, Doctor Phillips left Phila
delphia December 10 for St. Marks. The
last stage of his journey wns in the
pine-tree region of Florida. He found
St. Marks to be a hamlet with a tur
pentine still and u few dwellings.
It was easy to find "John Williams."
The instant he saw him, Doctor Phillips
knew he had discovered Mr. Pennock
and the latter immediately ixcopnized
Doctor Phillips. Byctanders ' eing pres
ent, they greeted ash other casually,
despite their amazement.
That night, in the three-room shack
in which Mr. Pennock was living, the
men "talked the thing out." Mr. Pen
nock told how overwork and business
worries in Kennett Square had caused

that ho must remain away from home.
He had a little less than $100 in his

life.
Finally ho reached Florida, where he
lived under various names. Ho finally
settled In St, Marks. The people of tho
little hamlet were uneducated but
friendly and It took littlq money to live.

he was known, did n little bookkeeping

MAL0NE ANSWERS LEGION
Advocates Return to Constitution as
Written, Not as Perverted
New York, Jan. 2. Dudley Field
Malonc, formerly collector of the port,
who has been barred from Croton Post
of the American Legion because of his
alleged radical activities, issued a state
ment last uight in which he declared
"any attempt by the American Legion
to control opinion by social ostracism
will only strengthen the fight for po
litical and industrial change.
"My membership in the American
Legion was solicited by a noval officer
and filed nt least six months ago," said
the statement. "My opinions arc ob
jected to as radical. I have never advo
cated even n peaceful and orderly change
in tho form of our government. But I
have ndvocnted, and shall continue to
advocate, a return to the constitution
ns it was written and not as it is con
stantly perverted by officials and courts.
This is my simple creed. Membership
in the American Legion could not buy it
from me."
