Vet erans Are of Feémale Sex. French physicians see In the nerv- ous reaction following the trials and perils of war the explanation ‘of the epidemic of girl bables which has ‘swept France In the ldst year. They-age their concluston on the remarkable fact that, while over 80 per cent, of tire children recently born 0 men who'servéd Under fire are girls, 60°per centof the bibles of war prof- fteets, ‘Mackers’ and ‘men physically ‘unfit for combatunt service have been boys. Soclologists Tooking into the future predict that if the present dispropor- tional feminine birthrate continues over half of the girls born in France in *1919 and 1920 will be doomed to ‘spinsterhood. The proportion of young ‘and middie-aged marrled men In #rance who saw no service on the {ront is so small that the boy babfes borti in their families are outnum- ‘bered more than two to orie by the in- fant daughters of the war vetefans, While at aloss to.explain the work- Angh¥ of the myaterlous Inflience -pre- determining the sex of the chillren born to ex-soldlers, French physiclans ‘agree that ‘the relaxation of. mien’s nerves, suddenly relfeved frof ‘the high tension of constant perfls and hardships, is at the bottom of the puz- ‘sling question. 80 long # the war continued ‘and men remainéd keyed to a high neryous pitch ‘their children were more often boys than-girls. Sixty-five per cent of soldlers’ bables born ‘during the war | were boys. Now that the hectic days -of shtot and shell are over the pendu- lum'of gravity has swung to the othe: extreme, and the -pazes of France's birth registers ‘are filled largely with names ‘of rew-born girl bables.— ‘Amaroe ‘News. / rning a Decoration. “Why did'¢he &ing of Cabool glve you a tredal?” “] gave him one last year,~ == plained the shah of Poobosh.—Louis- ville Courler-Journal, o — e ——— ilson, and one on “America’s Un-|| Prince” Hepry 'of England, who 1s lattached to the thirteenth Hussars at iAldershot, is undergoing a thorough course of. training, one item of which j1s ‘horseshoeing.

In a survey ‘of family incomes In nearly one hundred cities of the Unit- ed States, the department of labor found that in Johnstow . Y., three- quarters of the wives earn money. The Labor Review explains that this remarkable condition prevails in Johns- town because glovemaking is the prin- cipal Industry °‘there and furnishes work which women can do at home, This appeals tos them, because they are able to earn good wages without leaving their household. In almost one-sixth of the New York. city homes visited women contributed earnings toward the support of the home. In Boston, one wifé out of ten works; in Buffalo, one in twenty- efght; in Cleveland and Cincinnat! one in seven, and In Pittsburgh only one in fifty. It is interesting to note that investigators found that a Surprisingly large percentnge bt town dwellers de- Tive some income from gardens and poultry. Ninety-three per cent of those visited in Cleveland had a garden or chickens, — Immersion Heater.
