"Life on board a drodger." said
Captain John lliman‘son of the
Arundel Company's “Potomac." “is
full of wonders. The years don‘t
wear it off.. Whether you're build-
ing roads and turning acres of low-
land into shore residential plots, as
here at Greater Marsh Shores. or
building beaches, as we did at Concy
Island. it's a great life."
It is a wonderful life, too. To the
landsmnn, tho dredge is but a curl-
ous boat out in the harbor. But
there, far away from stores and
‘stroets. movie theaters and warm
homes, there's a pulsating, throb-
hing community, everlastingiy fight-
ing with Davy Jones, and chewing
up the bottom of the ocean. to upcw
it out on the land, building up for
the benefit of man.
Ccnscless Work.
Night and day the big manganese
steel blades are delving in the mys-
to1ious regions that make the sea
bed. Tinblnos ale whining, and
thousands of feet of pipe nro carry—
ing the residue overland. Without
rouse. shifts of men. Swensons and

lnariiculatc men. for the most
part. Even away from work, seated
at the dinner tabre, dining on such
Gargantuan meals ‘as the landsmnn
seldom sees. they talk little—except.
perhaps. about their work.
"Once in a while I suppose you
pump up interesting things from the
see. bottom," is the usual question of
the visitor.
Bleak silence follows, while a
steward takes away 11 gigantic.plat-
tor that a moment before seemed to
contain enough lamb stew to feed a
regiment. lie substitutes another
platter of lingo pieces of roast beef.
Silently everyone begins on the beef
course. as if he had not finished a
landsman's meal a moment before.
The captain clears his throat.
"Once." he said, "I did pump
something." ‘
The story is coming. There is an-
other full minute of silence. andthe
engineer leans back. The ceaseless
lhrob. throb. of the 450-horse-powcr
vertical engine goes on. The dredge
jumps and ducks in time. while the
coffee in the mate’s cup dances a jig
in time.
Dig Up Money.
“Chains, hedges and anchors, we
often pump nor-but, this time, we
hit money. Real coins!"
Thoro is an extra. quiver as the
chewing blades before the mouth of
. the dredge pipe whirl up a larger
rock than usual.
“I disremcmher properly where it
was. but I remembcr how I went
after it. With a bucket in my hand
and lots of high hope. Chink, it
came out—one coin. and then an.
other. I picked it up and put it in
the bucket. It was a penny, but still
——it was money.
"Well. sir—I tilled

Frenchie. the French-negro cook.
comes in with another relay of po-
tatoes and corn. The skipper leans
back. ’
“You more rich then?"
“Not at all. You see. darned if
there was a coin there except pen-
nies. Where they-came from, no
one knows except Davy Jones. and
he‘s first cousin to Old Nick. There
I was with my bucket full of pcn~
nies. and nary anotherco‘ln did we
get.”
“Mike got a live-foot eel yester-
day." says the engineer.
There is an interlude. Again
“Frenchie” enters—laden with such
pie—baked "on board—as would
make a doughboy swear off Salva-
tion Army doughnuts.
“I only eat pie on Saturdays. 'Ihen
Frenchiet bakes his special French
custard pie.” says the captain.
There is another hush given over
to more eating. ,A winch squeals.
and one of the two‘ 65-foot spuds
lifts its seven toons from the ocean
bottom. Like a. stiff-legged man, the
dredge begins to walk up the river.
First. lifting one spud, and then the
other, while the big dredge walks
as if on stilts.
The Captain Speaks.
"Gettin' lots of horse crabs now,"
comes from the lower end of the
table.
“Once I knew a. drcdgcr," says the
captain. "that came to griet‘on horse
shoe crabs. Down'tho coast she was
"and. they had a six-inch pipe."
(The pipe on the Potomac is eigh-
teen inches).

“I should say he stopped his

cursed the more they stuck up his
pipe—and, finally, he got mad and
pulled out. He never went in there
again, and we finished his job for
him.”
There is an appreciative grunt
from the rest. of the table. Amuse-
ment mingled with pity for a dredge
that could be slammed up by a
horse-shoe crab.
Once more Frenchie enters. See-
ing that everyone seems to have had
enough to eat. he crosses the clean
little dining cabin. He switches on
a. radio set.

Charges Church Is
Jealous of Stage
NEW YORK. May 26 (AP).—
Jeaiousy of the theatre has been the
underlying motive of the church in
seeking stage censorship. Otis Skin-
ner, well known actor. said yester-
day in an address before 100 Meth-
pdist pastors. His statement drew
protests from the audience.
"Ever since the inception of the
drama in medieval England in the
form or the mystery plays. the
church has recognised the theatre
as a rival drawing power and has
attempted to suppress it,’ said Mr.
skinner. "Jeaiousyvis apparent in
the effort of certain churches and
religious bodies to impose censor-
ship in the theatre."
Denying that he intended to de-
fend ealecloua plays. Mr. Skinner
said it was impossible to combat
evil by edicts. '
The Rev. Dr. John W. Langdaie
chairman of the meeting. answered.
“It is news to me that the Metho-
dist church is eavioua of the thea-
tre. The attitude of the Meahodlst
church toward the theatre is
prompted .by two considerations.
first. the danger of corrupting the
morale of chlldrcn.who are unable.
to discriminate between good and
had plays. and second. the apparent
impossibility of modifying the thea-
tre so as to exclude bad plays."
His statement was greeted with
applause. .
