JUGOSLAVS BOAST OF SPOTLESS TOWN Streets of Dubrovnik Com- munity, Without Sidewalks, Kept Clean as House Floors. BY A. R. DECKER. Correspondence of The Star and the Chicago Dally News. DUBROVNIK, Jugoslavia, October must have been the of the fable. Low- permit one to enter its but, once inside, one has the impression of being in a house, not a town. Unconsclously one looks around for ashtrays, for it does not seem fitting to flick cigar ashes on the clean stones of the street, or to throw burnt matches in a cor- ner. Evervthing {s brightly polished. There are no sidewalks in Dubrov- nik. King Petar avenue {s broad. It is the corso for promenading after the cool of 4 o'clock. But the side streets are very narrow—a long-armed man can touch the houses on both sides with his out-stretched finger tips. Neighbors are truly neighbors in Dubrovnik. Romeo and Juliet bal- confes decorate the upper stories of many houses. Small shops occupy the ground floor. Expands Into the Adriatie. The houses now are as they were 1,000 vears ago—plain stone, immacu- late, with now and then a decorative doorway. The town extends out into the blue Adriatic. High walls protect it from sea and land. In the little har- bor lie small vessels, loaded with wood, ofl, fruit and wine. When King Alexander and Queen Marie came here recently spotless Dubrovnik shone as never before. Much of the precious water supply had been used to scrub the streets. The shop fronts were freshly painted. Statues of King Petar and St. Bagio were made to gleam in their white- ness. Laurel garlands were hung from the walls. The church flag was hoisted on the freedom pillar and rich rugs were hung from the windows. A red carpet was laid through_the center of the street, from the Pille gate to the Catholic rathedral, where ®old and plush throne chairs had been placed Bells and Blossoms for the King. 1 carriage, drawn by six the King and the Queen came from Gruz, three miles away, where their ship had landed them. The grand zupan bowed low, the King and the Queen entered the low arch, as waves broke on the beach, and dashed against the walls of the town. The royal pair walked along the red carpet as children strewed their path with oleander blossoms, roses and balsam branches. Bells pealed. Peasants in gorgeous costumes, come from afar. formed a line on each side of the carpet. A very martial gen- cral led the procession. Peasant and townspeople cheered, “Zivio.”" At last the King had come to pay his first visit to Dubrovnik. Devotional services were held first in the Catholic cathedral, as a com- pliment to the Catholic population, then in the Serb orthodox church The return procession was through the Pille gate, and in the royal equip- age the King and the Queen returned to their ship at Gruz.

PARIS, November 30 (#).—A bronze statuet of Ammon-Re, the Egyptian sun god, has been unearthed at Fre- Jus, in the department of Var, by workmen digging for the foundations of a new villa, and althcugh its au- thenticity is attested by the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles Lettres, how it ever came to be so far from anclent Thebes remains a mystery. The statuet is of unusually fine workmanship, the features being finely molded.

SAYS BABY THRIVES IN DRAUGHTY ROOM Scientist Shatters Old-time Theory That Infants Should Be Kept Housed Up. Correspondence of The Star and New York World. LONDON, November 14.—One by one the cherished traditions of the nursery and the “old-fashioned” ideas of mother and nurse us to the cor- rect method of rearing are being shattered by t Last week we had Dr. E urging mothers to let their babies fall about or do what they will. Now comes Sir Bruce Bruce-Porter, famous physician, who denounces as ‘rub- bish” the idea that baby must not be left in a draught. Let it have all the draughts it can get, says he. Also cut out that silly habit of saying, “Hush, you'll wake up the baby,” when the preclous one is asleep. to go to sleep amid all s. Bruce-Porter's views were ex- pressed in a lecture before the Na- tlonal Society of Day Nurseries and he insisted that nearly all the old- fashioned notlons about baby rearing were not only fallacies but actually prejudicial to the health of the infant Everybody! rich man’s bank roll. our sensational credit offer. outfit. The idea that a child must be “pro- tected from draughts” was perhaps the most pernicious, he sald. Nursery windows must be kept open day and night, for the worst possible alr for the baby to breathe was that contami nated by human use. “Overclothing” was a tradition which caused gfave injury to the child. The fewer clothes a baby could get along with the better for his physical development. Fortunately, said Sir Bruce, this was now more generally recognized and the old- fashioned penchant for *long clothes™ had been largely abandoned. Babies were now being ‘‘shortened” (as re- gards clothing) within a week or 8o of birth. All this was for the benefit of baby, though .he was afrald that some mothers merely regarded the use of shorter and fewer garments as an excuse for less nursery “washing’ and laundry work, As to trying to preserve quiet in the house while baby slept, this was an equally fallacious theory. Baby was far better prepared for the rough. and-tumble of later life if he was en- couraged to sleep amid noise. Other hints to mothers volunteered by Sir Bruce-Porter were: “Tickling s good for baby—it makes him laugh and thus breathe in plenty of fresh air. Never refuse a child a drink of water. Milk is really a food and does not satlsfy thirst, therefore it should never be substituted for water.

Oliver of Pittsburgh Wounds Adversary. Cause Is Secret. Oorrespondence of The Star and New York ] World. ROME, November 16.—An American woman's husband has just fought a'| duel. The husband is Marchese Al- fredo Dusmet De Smours, and his wife was Edith Oliver, before her marriage. She was a daughter of James B. Oliver of Pittsburgh. The marchese's adversary was Mar- chese Campanari, a prominent society man. The seconds were, for Dusmet de Smours, Baron- Alosl and aron Renzo Compagna, and Campani's were Baron Lello Rodriguez and Commen- datore Esposito. At the third assault, Marchese Cam- panari was wounded in the forearm, and as the surgeon’s declared the duel must end the two opponents shook hands. The scene of this little society drama was the garden of a house not far from Rome. The reason for the duel has been kept a close secret; it is supposed to have originated at the card. table of a fashionable club. o SRR G, American forelgn trade with all continents except Asia increased in alue during 1924-1925 ENTRANCE ' ONE FLIGHT upP Dress up in Winter styles.

From the Hygeia Magazine. What is a moron? The vord is derived from a Greek word that means “foolish one,” as con- trasted with “sophos,” a “wise one.” The word “‘sophisticated” comes from the latter. ‘When a physiclan uses the word “moron’ he means a person who has been tested mentally and | found to have a slight grade of men- | tal deficienc: sufficient, however, to place him among those c ed minded. Thus if a person ov ears of age shows through tests the mentality of a child of 12 he is called a moro ‘The majorit mit delinquencie of persons who com are not morons, but have adequate or even superior tptelligence. The majority of morons are well behaved, docile persons, who can do simple tasks but who are not equipped with sufficient Intelligence to do work requiring a high degree of training or skill. It is important that morons be trained in good habits and be inform- ed as fully as possible as to their proper relations to the community to keep them from blundering inad vertently into the crimmes which, u fortunately, are attributed to the spacious racks to take care of the tremendous holiday demand.
