Upon tne successful. completion of the test, the examiners recommend the candidate to the-court of honor as suitably fitted to receive the merit badge-award.

LORENZ SAILS FOR EUROPE BUT WILL RETURN NEXT FALL NEW -YORK, April 13. — Dr. Adolf Lorenz, was a passenger on the La France, sailing for Europe yesterday. He was accompanied by Anton Wedl, tmporter, who induc- ed him to come to this country. Dr. Lorenz, who treated thous- ands of cripples during his visit, at first was forced to curtail IMs operations because of the opposi- tion he met from members of his own profession throughout the country. He finally conducted free clinics under the guidance of New York's health department, until he secured license from the state. Later he held clinics in New Jer- sey and. Detroit. He is coming back in September and will bring his family, which consists of his wife and two sons, ‘cith him. ‘The elder son, who is 36, is a physician and his father’s chief surgical assistant, having taken care of his practice in Vien- na while his father was in this country. The younger son, who ts nearly 18, will enter Columbia next fall, preparatory to begin- ning a medical career. Tired and weary from the work that he has performed here, Dr. Lorenz, who is 66, said: “Tt is true that at times IT have seemed in danger of being killed by kindness. The great friendli- ness which greeted| me and sur- rounded me everywhere is some- thing I shall always remember.

Heretofore Marchick has had an edge of one son on Goldstein, who with a single male. offspring could conduct business under the name of Louis Goldstetn and Son pnly. A few days ago, however, a new son was born in the GoNstein family and now Goldstein and Mar- ¢htek are on an even footting as re- gards the son business, Goldstein hav- ing changed his elgn to read “Louis Goldstein and Sons.” Marchick and Sons occupy two store rooms on Lincoln highway, sep- arateG by a third store room occupied by Goldstein, and —to the unending chagrin of the tribe of Marchick— bearing a sign reading “Main En- trance.” Several battles have been fought over this device of Goldstein, which the Marchicks hotly charge is deceitful In that ft leads the public to mistake the central Goldstein store for the main entrance to the two sep- arate Marchick stores. ——$—$_»—_—- ‘The question of married women teachers is agitating Switzerland.
