(Official City, State and County Newspaper) FIGHTING LONELINESS ‘A 28-inch midget, appearing in a circus in San Fran- cisco, was found drowned in a bathtub in his hotel the other day. “Acquaintances believe,” said the dispatch that told of the tragedy, “that it was suicide caused by loneliness.” Midgets must be lonely people, at that. They are compelled to be public entertainers; what else can they do to support themselves? But normal relationships with normal people must be very hard for them to find. It must be very easy for them to feel cut off from the rest of the race, walled up ina restricted world which would resign. He says he could easily have made $150,000 in two years if he had cared to. Such are the temptations that come in the path of men who are paid something like $2400 a year. The wonder is, not that there is corruption, but that it isn’t universal. READ NEWSPAPERS The woman who knows her paper from the date line to the want ads can pick an argument with her husband about blondes becoming extinct, or a candidate’s chances, and the result is that she gets all the argu- ment she wants without interfering in the least with her domestic happiness. Instead of panning one of her husband’s associates’ wives she can lam the harpoon into some dame who is dragging her husband through the divorce courts, or she can grill the dramatic critic who doesn’t like a certain show as much as she does. She can voice an opinion about a bit of news and throw more of a scare into her husband than if she tried to crown him with the goldfish. Women read the papers more carefully than men do. At least this is the consensus of opinion in newspaper circles, where a close tab is kept on the tastes of people and the things that interest people. HELPING THE NEEDY The Wedfare Council of New York, in a bulletin just issued, makes a very timely and sensiple observation on the subject of Christmas charity. Referring to gifts of food, clothing and toys that cities and individuals make to poverty-stricken families, it says: “Help the needy to help themselves. The family in need on Christmas day is nearly always in just as dire need the following week or month. A Christmas basket or dinner will not take the place of a job, medical serv- ice or institutional care. Persons in distress should therefore be brought to the attention of some one of the many welfare societies, preferably the one best equipped to render the particular service needed.” It’s good advice. Christmas gifts for the needy are splendid things; but it is also important that some kind of permanent relief be given where it is needed, they cannot leave and others cannot enter, That feeling, heaven knows, comes to all of us now and then. Oddly enough, it is more apt to come to one who lives in a city among crowds than to the man who lives in the open country. For crowds do not dis- play the best side of human nature. One scans them in vain for traces of unselfishness, courage and wis- dom. One may be sure of one’s own integrity, but very dubious about the integrity of the world at large. To be in a crowd but not of it is a hard fate. But it is not confined to men who, like this poor midget, are shut off by physical limitations. Every man feels it, at times. Some men go through their whole lives with it. As our civilization continues to grow more and more complex, it will be the lot of an ever-increas- ing number of people. Yet this kind of loneliness isn’t an insurmountable thing, after all, The crowd that brings it can dispel it, too, if you watch it closely enough. You will see much greed, much heedless rivalry, much haste and much cowardice and stupidity; but you will also see other traits, if your eyes are keen—a bit of courage here and there, a hidden act of self-sacrifice and devo- tion, an unobtrusive quest for truth and decency. And these things make up for the loneliness. They bring conviction that the world is better than it seems. When you find, in the routine course of your daily life, a glimpse of courage and beauty and love, you know that somewhere there exist infinite courage, in- finite beauty and infinite love. There is a divine har- mony, after all, and every human being shares in it. The loneliness of isolation is a terrible thing. But it can be conquered. Humanity can be heedless, cold and hard, byt it is also. noble and inspiring. It all depends on what your eyes can see. FILMS DIE WITH PLAYERS Hollywood has discovered that the public will not patronize a motion picture when exhibited after the death of the star of the film and is puzzled thereby. The movie producers are unable to distinguish between the film of a dead star and the book of a dead author, or the play of a dead dramatist, or the composition of a deceased musician, and, they point out, there are any number of cases where such works have only become popular after the death of their artist creator. A bit of applied psychology would solve this movie- land mystery. The key to the solution rests in the movement launched by certain producers some years ago to substitute “story appeal” for “player appeal” on the screen. Fans will recall the catch-phrase of that movement: “The play is the thing.” People are primarily interested in living beings, and death soon divorces that interest. The average fan goes to the movie theater more to see a favorite actor or actress than with the expectation of seeing a good story picturized or of seeing the latest work of some scenario writer or director. And this public interest in movie folk, being something akin to personal friend- ship, must inevitably vanish with the death of the star. The question why interest in the moving picture does not survive its star is equivalent to asking why nobody would read Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” if the character of Hamlet would be left out of this immortal tragedy. LONGER LIFE When told that the mortality rate is falling, length- ening the average span of life, many persons suppose « that better doctors, improved living conditions and the natural course of evolution is responsible, but few as- sociate with it an institution to which probably more than anything else man is indebted for the extra years on earth granted this generation. That institution is plumbing. Plumbing is not what could be called a “sanitary” ‘word, although it is the first word in sanitation. Per- haps it is denied its due credit because the word is associated with grimy workmen and apoplectic bills, But one need only to compare this country’s death rate ‘with that of those countries which have little or no plumbing, to find the reason for the lengthening span of life. . So recent is it that many recall the time when the + small communities of this country were sewerless and “running hot water and bathtubs were a rarity. The adoption of plumbing has been amazing in its rapidity ‘and not less rapid have been improvements in the methods and fixtures of plumbing. Twenty years ago plumbing was left to little better vthan unskilled laborers. Today plumbing has been yaised to a science. Plumbing is the ounce of preventative. | PROHIBITION CORRUPTION If you wonder, now and then, why theré is so much forruption in the work of prohibition enforcement, read ‘the stories that are coming out of Detroit, where a ‘Bweeping investigation of conditions along the border 2; A polieeman, formerly in the federal border patrol $1000 « week simply to see to it that none of his went near a certain dock-for one hour each night He tells of being offered 2 $5000 automobile and : se Mere tees toons taaene to weg OVERHEATED ROOMS Here’s a tip for parents of small children who fear that winter weather will bring their youngsters cold and sickness, Dr. Harvey Wiley, writing in Good Housekeeping Magazine, says that the chief reason children have more colds in winter than in summer is that in the winter they are prone to live in overheated living rooms and to sleep in overheated and unventilated bedrooms. A sleeping room, he says, should always be ventilated, even in the coldest weather, and is better far unheated in cold weather than overheated. Probably most of us tend to overheat our homes. Any doctor will corroborate what Dr. Wiley says; the surest way to catch cold is to have too much heat. THE SHOPPING SCRAMBLE Despite the “do your shopping early” signs that are beginning to make their appearance, it is a safe bet that a great many of us will let at least a part of our Christmas shsopping wait until the last minute. Then we'll go through the usual scramble at the potoffice, and lots of the people to whom we’re send- ing gifts won't get them until several days after Christmas. In that connection it might be a good thing to re- member the airmail service. If you’re sending a parcel to a point that is served by an airmail line you would do well to keep that in mind. The service ought to be a boon to late Christmas shoppers. HOOVER’S WISE REMARK It was a wise thing that Herbert Hoayer told repre- sentatives of the Republic of Salvador on his recent visit to La Union. “Our international economic relations can have but one real foundation,” he said. “They can grow only out of the: prosperity of each of us. They cannot flour- ish in the poverty or degeneration of any of us. Our economic progress is mutual. It is not competitive.” That remark represents American industrialism at its best. And, at its best—that is, under wise leader- ship—American industrialism can prove a tremendous force for good in this world. It is immensely encour- aging to hear Mr. Hoover express himself in this way. | Editorial Comment | THE MONEY MOTIVE (Des Moines Tribune-Capital) The key sentence in a half-column Associated Press dispatch from New York about the prospects in the prize fight realm is the next to the last one in this paragraph—or perhaps it should be that one plus the one that follows it: Both the maestro Rickard, and Dempsey, the greatest ring attraction of all times, believe that the present lull in this heavyweight situation is temporary and awaits only the appearance of an iron-fisted youngster to again make possible mil- lion dollar gates and purses. Rickard believes that Jack still has the power to lure immense numbers of fight fans to the turnstiles. Dempsey smiles at | that but was ready to demand at least $750,000 for his services once the promoter opened negoti- ations. All the talk about Dempsey’s nervous eagerness to see action again, and this utter inability or restraint to a man of his temperament, may be shrewdly forgotten and the real predictions may all be based on the money prospect. And while Dempsey is years past his best, and cannot possibly be better than a second rater now, the chances are that Rickard is wholly right in his guess that the public will pay, and pay heavily, at least once more to see him perform. Neither Rickard nor Dempsey can be imagined in the role of sternly refusing to let the public do it. WOOD FOR FOOD (Christian Science Monitor) Proposals that wood may be used as a food do not mean that one may stop along the highway and lunch on a few pine boughs nor attempt to appease his hunger by taking a bite out of a handy hickory tree. The Ger- man chemist who has announced that wood nourishment is a possibility of the future makes it clear that some chemical processes are necessary before trees may be served up in salads, sautes, stews or sandwiches. For the present, therefore, no boy need be disturbed over any Prospect of being sent to the shed to cut up a Portion of wood for dinner. The possibilities of wood as a food lie only in the fact that there is vegetable matter in wood. This, how- ever, is reclaimed only after technical processes which make such reclamation a rather expensive proposition from a commercial standpoint. It is said that when a common little wood pulp molecule is left alone—pre- sumably not annoyed by extraneous activities—it be- sugar of starch. "Stir in one well-selected little molecule of water and the result is an edible carbohy- rate. is nothing else to do—no half a cup of milk, the white of an egg, nor bake to a deep brown— Just two little molecules, one water and one wood, and in a jiffy it is done. ‘ jut all this is not as simple as it seems. It is a com- plex Hborsiory, undertaking which cannot be trans- ferred to the field of industrial activity until many dif- ficulties have been overcome. In the meanwhile it is to be hoped that the practice of a misguided farmer, who is said to have coaxed his horse into a sawdust diet by ing green glasses over its eyes will not be gen- eral pted.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XL ERRY'S eyes followed Alester's. She saw nothing alarming— merely two men at a small table, One of them was engaged in eat- ing fried chicken. The other was returning Alester’s stare. A crooked smile parted his lips and settled in one corner of his mouth, He said something in a low voice to his companion. The latter turned toward Alester and Jerry saw his features darken. But Alester was coming toward her now, getting in her line of vis- fon. He rolled the door closed in haste and grasped her by the arm with fingers that trembled, When they reached their table he seized @ flask that had been laid upon it by one of the party. “What is the matter?” she asked. Alester did not answer. It was left for another man to enlighten Jerry. “Alester's seen the Red Terror,” he laughed. One of the girls gasped. “Do you mean that red-headed bootlegger they call Trigger Nolan?” she asked, “Isn't he terrible? He nearly slew the steward out at the club for cutting his stuff and claim- ing that he did it.” “What's he got against you, Ales- ter?” someone else asked, Alester sat back, his face farther from the light. “I don’t know him,” he said shortly. Jerry knew he led. eee ** * Newspaper agencies complain of @ scarcity of good news pictures. Aren’t there any more 106-year-old people to ride in airplanes?

Jerry could see, across the hall, the two men whose presence had thrown Alester into a state of fear. The act he had requested com- pletely failed to hold hgr attention. She was getting creepy with the unwholesome sounds and sugges- tive surroundings. “Oh, do let us go,” she implored when the doors were rolled tdgether again. She saw that Alester had lifted the flask to his lips a second time. “It's early,” he returned briefly. His willingness to depart had vanished, Jerry discovered as a half-hour went by and she urged in vain, He turned repeatedly to the flask. It began to worry her, dou- bly so, when the curt, fine edge of his cultured voice took on a furry overtone. “Please, Alester,” she begged. “I must get to New York. If you keep me here much longer I'll miss my train.” “There’s plenty of time,” he in- sisted doggedly. “We could leave at daylight and make the train.” “But I want to get some sleep,” Jerry wailed. “You know you prom- ised...” “You're to old to believe in prom- ises,” Alester laughed mawkishly. “Don't be a killjoy, Jerry. I won't see you again for weeks. What’s a little night out of a lifetime?” Jerry turned away in despair. Betty had been watching, and lis- tening. “I don’t think you should urge him,” she advised Jerry. “He isn’t fit for night driving.” “He hasn’t had much to drink,” Jerry protested. “No, but something has shaken him, Wait a while, You can run up to New York in two hours.” eee JERRY gave in. Time rolled very slowly over her head while those about her enjoyed themselves. They begged her to dance for them and because she felt that she'd go to pieces if she sat there waiting for Alester to take her away she con- sented. They applauded her madly and Jergy thought with a catch in her throat of her jeopardized chance to wiy the approval of a theatrical audience. She made up her mind to appeal co ane of Alester’s friends to drive her to a railroad station if he refused any longer to leave. She told hima this, and that she'd find a telepbona and call for a cab if no one there would help her. “Wait a minute,” Alester put her off. “Wait just ong minute.” He lifted his'hand and summoned @ walter. Jerry saw him pass a folded bill to the man and whisper something she could not hear. She sat silent, waiting to see if this had “OH I say, we're missing the show!” a male voice pro- tested. “Open the doors.” His words were loud enough to be heard by a hovering waiter who accepted them as an order and pro- | ago.” anything to do with her demand. Soon the waiter was hack. He said something to Alester in a low voice. Jerry caught his words, = WY, /@ HISTORY December 15 |1778—Virginia ratified’ the articles of confederation. 1791—First 10 amendments to Con- stitution went into force, 1836—Patent office and post office at Washington burned. 1857—House of Representatives oc- cupied new chambers for first time. Alester said: “Are you certain?” “Yes sir,” the man replied, not troubling to lower his voice now. Alester glanced uneasily at Jerry but her expression did not tell him that she had guessed at the import of the information he had received. “He's afraid of Trigger Nolan,” she said to herself. “That’s why he wanted to wait until morning to start!” “All right,” Alester said to her; “we'll go.” eee IRRY took hurried farewells of the others in the party and in a few minutes Alester was bumping his car over the ruts to the gate, without thought of the possibility of breaking his springs. Jerry knew he had consented to go only because Trigger Nolan and his companion had gone in the other direction. She did not give a thought to the sort of impression she had made upon Betty Mortimer. Only one idea dominated her now—to get to New York in time to catch the train for Boston. She looked at the clock on the instrument dial and was relieved to know that there was plenty of time. She asked Alester not to drive so fast. His recklessness was breathtaking. He did not slow up. Jerry gripped the side of the car with her right hand and said nothing more. It this was his way of showing his displeasure, let him show it! She had not guessed correctly at the truth, Alester did not alto- gether trust the waiter who had told /him that Trigger Nolan had taken the pike to Baltimore. Jerry ceased to think of danger after a while. Large, soft raindrops splashing on the windshield threat- ened to slow their progress and her, though she tried to guess. SATS SATURDAY, vrwEMBER 15, 1 CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING Every cold winter takes a toll of deaths from carbon monoxide poi- soning. This gas, being colorless, ela Lace Farproesa oe dineen warning of the approach o: 5 Carbon canapeide gas is usually formed wherever there is deficient combustion of fuel. It is present to some extent in both artificial and natural gas, and may form from charcoal, coal or gasoline. ever these fuels are used, one should be careful that either a large supply of oxygen reaches the burner, or that the fumes are carried off by an unobstructed flue or chimney. Last year many deaths occurred to people who remained in closed garages while their automobile en- gines were running. Carbon monoxice gas, when in- haled, forms a very tight union with the hemoglobin of the blood and pre- vents the latter from conveying oxygen. Degenerative changes of the brain cells result quickly, mak- ing this poisoning extremely danger- ous, as the damage persists even after the carbon monoxide has been given off by the blood. The workers of many trades may be subject to chronic monoxide poisoning. This sometimes occurs with furnace tenders and miners. But it is difficult to gather actual statistics about this condition be- cause many cases are unrecognized. The principal symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are a general weakness, dizziness and sometimes headache and vomiting. The sub- ject notices a feeling of drowsiness. If the monoxide is present in suf- ficient quantity, unconsciousness will follow. The skin assumes a pe- culiar, livid color. The pulse is fast and weak, and convulsions often oc- cur. After a coma has lasted for twenty-four hours, death is almost inevitable, and even in cases of re- covery from this poisoning, there may be after effects, such as pneu- monia, paralysis or neuritis. The treatment should be to give the patient plenty of fresh air, Arti- ficial respiration may be necessary. Most hospitals, fire departments and gas companies are equipped with tanks of oxygen and other apparatus for giving first aid to these cases. Blood transfusion does not seem to be of assistance and is in many cases actually harmful. The patient should be encouraged to use deep breathing exercises. The diet should be carefully moderated for the first They drove at a snail’s pace fora _ stretch of 10 miles and then the rain lessened. Alester stepped: on the gas again and soon they were making 40 miles along a gleaming, pool-dotted highway. Suddenly one of the front wheels Hit a deep rut. A few feet farther on Alester cursed under his breath. They were limping like a barefoot boy with a sore toe. “T'll be damned if I’m going to stop in this rain,” he said and kept on going. “There must be another garage along here somewhere.” For half a mile they bumped along with the flat tire being ruined under the ruthless treat- ment. Then Alester drove to the side of the road and stopped. “We'll hail someone and send for a garage man,” he said, reach- ing into his pockets for his cigarets. His arms were aching from the difficult steering. He'd had enough. But no one passed. The rain was coming down again, harder than ever. They sat in their isolated road- ster another half hour and Jerry was barely suppressing her tears. She could not make that train now. It meant that she'd never reach Boston in time for her rehearsal. ee yous Alester grew too rest- less to sit still any longer. He had not dared to make any tender advances to Jerry, knowing that sho was furious and had good reason to be. He got out and changed the tire. It was a wet, muddy job and when he climbed back into the car he was a sorry sight. He drove more carefully this time. There-was no use in 8 “Don't worry,” he said to Jerry gave her a new cause for worry. “There's a garage just ahead,” Alester said, and the car leaped forward in response to added pres- sure on the accelerator. “We will stop there and put up the top.” ‘They were getting pretty wet be- fore the garage was reached. The rain was coming down faster now. Alester suggested waiting until it ceased but Jerry was unwilling to lose any. more time. “You can drive slow,” she advised; “and it might rain all night.” B ‘when they had gone a few miles farther she wished she had let Alester have his way. The rain was now coming down in tor- rents. The side curtains were keep- ing them dry but Alester’s vision was cut off by the rain beating against the windshield. He could not see 10 feet ahead of him. They crawled along at 12 miles an hour, Jerry had to beg Alester to reduce his speed and she realized that Betty was right. Something disregard Jerry thought it strange that he could fear man so much “Bajtimore,” and “a half hour chaeased |” guddenly Alester laugh after a long silence. “I'll see that Weinerts gives you another chance.” i “He won't,” Jerry said hopelessly, “not even for you.” Alester knew that she spoke the truth, Mr. Weinerts had told him many times what it meant to train a girl in a part only to have her dissipate her looks and energy in night clubs and fast living. Jerry would hate him, he felt. He stole a sidewise glance at her. Jerry's eyes were filled with tears. Trouble scratched her mind with sharp claws. She might not lose her job, but she’d never have an- other chance with Mr. Weinertz. “They will probably put Jane back in her place aud send me to the chorus again,” ran the burden of her thoughts. All the joy that she had expert- enced this morning had now van- ished, She was a dejected, beaten, Uttle competitor for some of the good things in life. She had made plans for spending the increased salary she was to re- ceive—plans that hurt her to give up. But what hurt more than any- thing else was the necessity of re- vising the letter she had to write to her mother. “Why, Jerry,” he exclaimed, “I know how you'll get to Boston!” (To \Be Continued) Wher- few days, Altefnate feedings of or« ange juice and milk at about twq hour intervals should, as a rule, ba INN cl tod on health Tea alet, ‘addressed to him, care of the Tribune. envelope for reply. continued for two or three days be« fore the regular diet is employed, Poisoning from carbon monoxide is really inexcusable, and, if you sus- pect this is occurring in your home, you should call a furnace inspector to see that the amount of air mixed with the fuel is sufficient to entirely consume all of the gas, or that the fumes are conveyed to the outside of the building by the proper flues, If you drive an automobile, be careful never to permit the engine to continue running in a confined atmosphere, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Talking in Sleep Question: M. Y. asks: “What causes one to talk in sleep?” Answer: Talking in one’s sleep is usually due to digestive disorders, This trouble keeps the sleeper half- way between a sleeping and waking state, and his subconscious mind is constantly at work. One in this twilight sleep state is liable to speak the thought going on in the uncon- scious mind, Pleurisy Question: Mrs. D. writes: “I have been told that I have a case of dry pleurisy. Does pleurisy come on in attacks being entirely free from pain, or does it pain most of the time? I have a severe pain most all the time under my left shoulder blade and between my shoulder blades. It also pains me in my chest and lungs.” Answer: Pleurisy may be eithet acute or chronic, It is due to an infection of the membrane which covers the lungs.
