Beside the mummy of the princess was found hher Book of the Dead, a scroll of papyrus 18’: feet long, which is considered a priceless find for the muscum. Of special interest is Winlock’s description of the mum- my. ‘be wierdly and grotesquely young, but she owed this look to the dyes her hairdressers had put on her scanty gray | Jocks and to the art of the undertakers, who had filled | ut and painted her shrunken face.” Entiu-ny was not only advanced in years, but was an unusually short and fat lady. ‘Thus prepared, the princess was ushered into the Un-j @erworld to the Court of the Gods, where her Book of the Dead introduced her as “the praised of those who are Lords of Tribes, the Mistress of the House, the Chan- tress of Amen-Re, King of the Gods, the Princess Entiu- ny.” Counting Political Chickens Republicans in congress are showing normal interest in the selection of a candidate for the speakership at the! next session, the matter having been brought prominently to the fore by the death of the late Nicholas Longworth and the announcement Tuesday of the candidacy of Rep- resentative Tilson of Connecticut. Mr. Tilson’s candidacy and the speculation as to its success are in order, of course, for the Republicans still | have a majority of one in the next congress. However,| with a majority of congress composed of men past mid- dle life and the governors of 33 states enrolled under the banner of the Democratic party, it is just barely pos- sible that the Republicans are counting political chickens | too far in advance. Another Republican death, followed by a Democratic appointment, would give the Jefferson- ian party a majority of one. In that event the wheel 2] fate, with the grim reaper turning up the numbers, would | take from Mr. Hoover in the important congress preced- ing the 1932 campaign the last legislative branch con- trolled by the G. O. P. The Republicans, of course, are said to control the senate and will continue to do so, but that domination; hhas been fictitious rather than actual, what with the Democrats and the Progressive Republicans snuggling; together as political bedfellows on most matters not con-/ nected directly with political patronage. A resume of the potential Republican timber available @ddition to Tilson there is Snell of New York, chairman 6f what is referred to as the “powerful rules committee.” He has been in the house 16 years to Tilson’s 20. But Burton L. French of Idaho is serving his 26th year and Willis C. Hawley of Oregon, the same whosc fname appears on the much-lamented tariff bill, is serv- ing his twenty-third year.

The Talkies and Internationalism ‘The silent drama of the silver screen became known as B potent instrument in fostering the international spirit fnd was called the most powerful unifying force of modern times. The silent picture did not need the arts of language to be understood and in all peoples it @wakened the same emotional response. It now is being asserted that the addition of spoken language to the film has destroyed its internationalism. There is nothing, however, in the history of science or the advancement of knowledge to warrant such an as- sumption. The present rebellion against the talking films fs due to several causes which can be remedied. The present plight of the talkies as an international fommodity is largely due to the ignorance and haste of the producers, who have proceeded, without due prepara- fion, to supply talkies to the nations of the world in (wholesale quantities without furnishing the customers their own particular brand of language. € It could hardly be expected that provincial people could he fed up on foreign films without violent reaction, after the novelty had worn off. It must be remembered that the ties of interchange and amity between nations have been largely confined to the governing classes; and when the cinema kings try to introduce the people of the nations to each other en mé&ase, they must expect to meet with prejudice and difficulty. It must be admitted that the present situation is dis- quieting. In Prague, Ozecho-Slovakia, a theatre was re- cently bombed because it produced a talkie in the Ger- man language, although all the Czechs in Prague speak German. Warsaw, Poland, has reported a similar dis- play of animosity. In Paria; the ‘gallery gods’ hooted en English film and forced the ticket office to hand them fback their money.

Whenever gold production has increased to some unusual volume there has been talk of demonetization of gold. When silver reached an unusual stage of production, it was demon- etized by a few of the larger commercial countries, The accumulation of wealth through exchange has been s0 Maapted pt made possible by a stable medium of exchange. But in other parts of the world where the uses of money were not understood and where the earhings power was so meager that its a¢cuinulation was seldom enough as to reach the value of the smallest gold coin, silver always has been and still is the medium of éxchange, the token nished a satisfactory medium for all local exchange and as a measure of accumulated fortune. in gold that the falling price of silver keenly affected 1ts vnners. A peculiar psychology ef the human mind is the half dozen varieties of the language spoken in Spain. The declared purpose of the film makers to establish Castilian as the standard diction of such films is meet- ing with clamorous resistance from other branches of that linguistic group. Have the cinema palaces at Hollywood become modern Towers of Babel? Says George Kent, “the movies be- come audible, are now national and seem to foster nation- alism at its worst.” The solution will probably come through a more refined | and diversified service by the producers, and by a better understanding and greater tolerance by the people of the | nations, u | Purity at the Crossroads A great many things in this modern age are taken for granted and accepted without undue protest but every now and then something bobs up which gets a rise | The indictment of the head of Minneapolis’ police morals squad on charge of operating a disorderly house is one of them. A people who are almost shockproof find it possible to experience a little additional thrill along their backbone and to give another shudder of horror. , % | We have grown used to having police and other public Officials in far-away cities condemned and attacked on all sorts of charges but those cases have seemed too remote to be of personal interest. Minneapolis lies right in the next yard, so to speak, and therein is the difference. New York now has under way an investigation of charges that numerous members of its police force partic- ipated in conspiracies to defame the names of honest and virtuous women and, in some cases, to drag women and girls into a life of degradation and shame. It is just as easy to condone murder as to condone this crime. For many of us it would be easier, for death, after all, is not always the supreme penalty. A living death is much less to be desired. To have indications that a somewhat similar condition exists in our neighboring city is sufficient to cause some alarm in Bismarck. What father or mother can be sure) that their daughter, when she goes to a neighboring town where such conditions prevail, will not come under the/ “guardianship” or encounter the “kindly offices” of a morals squad such as Minneapolis is charged with having. | An automobile driver who has piloted a car for 20) {years and never had a traffic accident says: “Always be prepared to have the other fellow do the wrong thing jand drive your car as though you thought every other driver were a fool. You won't be right often but those |times when you are right you probably will avoid an accident.” There may be something to it. In September, 1921, a German flier startled all airdom by rising from the ground in a glider without mechanical aid to a height of 200 feet, and keeping aloft for 21 minutes. The progress in this form of aviation may be measured by the feats of Robert Kronfield, an Australian, who flew his glider last year a distance of 94 miles. ‘Ten years ago @ newspaper columnist remarked that “the population of the United States is 16 per cent denser than it was, judging from the things the people fall for.” It doesn’t seem to have improved any.

Facts, Not Motives, Are Important (Minneapolis Tribune) Just what bearing the motives animating the activ- ities of the grand jury have on the facts that the grand jury may bring forth is not plain. No one doubts that there is a certain:amount of mayoralty politics involved and that Mayor Kunze'’s chances for renomination are reduced by all the ballyhoo. Other candidates are taking fullest advantage of the situation and the louder the rumbles of iniquity that come from the grand jury room the more fervent are the candidate's promises that he will clean up the city. We can admit all this and even go to the extent of admitting that all the activities of the grand jury are motivated by mayoralty politics. Still, facts are facts, irrespective of any purpose in disclosing them. If the keepers of disorderly and gambling houses have been paying the police or other city officials for protection, the We don't even see the necessity for proving that pro- tection was paid. These places were allowed to operate to an extent exceeding thelr liberty in any recent ad- ministration, and we are not simple enough to believe that they operated without the knowledge and consent of the police. Permitting them to operate was the primary offense and the consideration for this permission is sec- ondary insofar as the administration is concerned. The grand jury is performing a proper function in seeking to learn if protection money was paid, but as far as the elec- torate is concerned the fact that these places were per- The motives behind the activities of the grand jury, whether or not these activities are inspired by this or that candidate, are rather immaterial. If the truth were ascertainable it would probably be found that every can- didate for the mayoralty nomination has a friend or friends on the grand jury. candidates we have no expectation that a city of a half million inhabitants will ever become a spotless town. There is, however, a limit of decency that can and should be maintained. If the ordinary standards of municipal decency have not been maintained during the last ad- ministration we should know about it and give scant at- tention to the motives of our informants. Silver, Gold and Trade Balances (Mining Congress Journal) Between the barter and exchange method of ancient days and the complex business transactions of the present day the gulf of separation is so great that few are able to comprehend the enormous changes which have taken place. The change from the tent on the Arabian Desert to the 85-story Empire Building in New York does not begin to illustrate the difference between business then and now. With all due credit to invention and new forms of transportation, there is one underlying necessity, the thread of which has twined it- self through every phase of this stupendous advancement For the greater part of the world’s commercial history arts of the world that gold was particularly id Yo measure the larger wealth which had been of value and the object of hoarding.

Little children formerly starved by poor or incorrect feeding have grown into sturdy youngsters, better fitted to handle their school problems. The greatest good has been accomplished by those whose food had not been sufficient or of proper nourishing qualities, milk in this case acting as a protective food because of its balanced, nour- ishing materials. At the end of two years the baby should be allowed about eight ounces of milk every four hours. Some of the minced cooked non-starchy veg- etables may be added to the second or third daily feedings, beginning with about a teaspoonful of one kind of vegetable and gradually increasing the amount. A small amount of Mel- ba toast may be added to these meals if desired. After a few weeks of feeding the baby on one of these vegetables at the second or third daily feedings, it is @ good plan to increase the quan- tity of vegetables used and finally use the same amount at each of the four dally feedings, also gradually intro- duce some of the uncooked vegetables at each meal. Some of the best foods for this purpose are carrots, celery, spinach and cucumbers, which should be finely ground and only @ small amount added each time. ‘Milk should be considered real tood and not just a pleasing drink. Milk has very nourishing qualities and for this reason it should be the principal part of the meal in which it js used. Many people make the mistake of ad- ding a large quantity of mlik to a meal which is otherwise auite rich, and then blame the milk for any ci- gestive disturbance which occurs. This would be avoided if one obeyed the Tule of using milk with either the acid fruits or with cooked and raw non-starchy vegetables or with toasted starches. Do not be afraid of mixing acid fruits with milk, for curdling is the first process in the digestion of milk and the smaller the curds the more readily it is digested.

This is probably because of certain ductless gland secretions which are carried in milk and which selence is just beginning to investi- gate in detail.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Raps Pulse Question: H. D. asks: “What would be the cause of a pulse rate of 105 when completely at repose? Late examination showed no definite dis- order.” Answer: It is difficult for me to advise you concerning the rapid heart action without being able to examine you. A number of conditions might cause this, among them being: Valv- ular leakage of the heart, hyperthy- roid, the presence of a tumor, etc. However, probably the most common cause’is gas pressure, especially when the patient has had an examination lately and no serious trouble has been found. Baked Potatoes Question: O. S. asks: Potatoes when eaten peel and all con- tain any other elements besides starch? May baked potatoes be eat- en with meat, providing they are the only item on the menu containing starch? Are candy. cake frostings, etc., considered as starchy in their reaction within the body?” Answer: Baked potatoes contain many mineral elements. especially if the skins are used. The percentage of starch in potatoes is not as high as in the cereals and it is permissible for anyone in good health to use po- tatoes with meat occasionally, al- though I do not advise the combina- tion for a sick person. Candy and cake frostings do not contain starch unless flour or cornstarch have been used in their preparation.

It was one‘ of the most imposing and significant episodes during the sojourn of the delegates.
