(Established 1873) i eg SECRET OF FAME Marry late in life if-you want your children to} be great and famous. If you marry.early, your children have small chance of taking a place alongside Einstein, Babe; Ruth, Edison, 0. Henry or Abraham Lincoln. This is the claim of Casper L. Redfield, Chicago) scientific writer and authority on. heredity. “Young marriages,” says. Redfield, “produce incompetent mentalities in the offspring. And. the first-born of such marriages is not apt to be as/ intelligent as cildren born later.” } Here is Redfield’s chart, showing. relative chances of becoming eminent, as determined - hy. father’s age at birth of son, Ask pa how old he was.when, you were horn. Maybe, it'll, forecast, your future. This chart. was’: prepared’ by: ‘Redfield ‘alter checking up ages of the fathers of 571 men, each famous enough to have at least a page devoted. to him in Encylopedia Britannica. The chart shows, for.instance, that a boy born'|, of a:father 60 years or older has more than, 50 times as many, chances of becoming famous as the, boy born of a 24-year-old father. “Of.the 571 celebrities I looked. up,” says Red- field, “most of them rose from the ranks whose : daddies. were over 60. .Not.one of them was the child of an early marriage. Where eminent men did, have young parents, there was always .a sur- plus heritage of age in the preceding three gener- ations, wherein the grand-folk married late.” Five prizes of $200 each are offered by Redfield for proof that really great men or women, were born of parents who constituted more than the third generation in a century. Lincoln, Ben Franklin, Cuvier, Wagner and hundreds of others, all had fathers over 40. Napoleon, Goethe and Tolstoy..had young’ fath- ers: But those fathers each had at least three generations of ancestors who married late in life and thereby passed down a heritage of wisdom. Redfield’s theory, boiled down, is that the older a man gets the more wisdom he acquires, and that Is he right? The best fruit comes from old ties, How does the theory fit your case? —_— 1 DIPLOMACY European diplomatic circles are much agitated because Switzerland has sent an hotel keeper. to represent .it, as minister | to Poland. Against the rules of the union of professional diplomats and all that sort of thing. It doesn’t appear how good an hotel keeper the new minister has been, but unless. he.has been a mighty poor one he can’t make a much worse mess of. diplomacy than have ,the European “profes. sionals. They permitted Europe to drift into the great ‘war and what has happened since the war further evidences their bankruptcy. ; a DISARMAMENT A high Japanese official visiting this country says that the people of Japan, following the great war, have become very much interested in foreign affairs. He adds that Japan has reached a. point where foreign. pili must be based upon public opinion. At about the time he was making these state- ments the National Chamber of Commerce of Ja- pan, meeting at Tokio, was demanding by resolu- tion that the Japanese government “should reach) an agreement with the other powers regarding} disarmament.” These Japanese business men rep- resenting a large section of public opinion also demanded that the government reduce appropria- | 0: tions devoted to preparations for war, “which are arousing the suspicions of other nations and en-| dangering Japan’s future.
