Palmer, Democratic chair- man, said the returns greatly increased the Democratic ratio. Mrs. Lulu A. Bickford, acting chair- man of the Republican State central committee, announced that in her dis-| trict, Berwyn, the Republicans had add- ed 64 voters to 45 for the Democrats and 4 declined. Berwyn district is nor- mally slightly Democratic, but is re- garded as debatable this year because of the many students of the University of Maryland and others who are regis- tering. In the second precinct of Seat Pleas- ent district, Palmer's bailiwick, it was announced 'that 228 new voters were added to the books yesterday, including 131 Democrats, 97 Republicans and 1 Independent.

The citation said that “immediately on becoming aware of the accident, Huber, without hesita- tion and in complete disregard of his ywn safety, entered the steam-filled fire- room and at grave risk to his life suc- ceeded by almost superhuman efforts in carrying Charles H.

Declaring that 45 is the age at which most men have lost touch with the new | developments of the world they live in and therefore are unfit for executive positions in which they deal with youth, Dr. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of George - Washington University, today pointed out the adult education pro- gram of the university as a step to bring The “philosophical complacency’ of mids dle age into tune with the “psychological enthusiasms” of youth. Dr. Marvin today amplified his state- ment made before mothers of first-year girls of the university yesterday, to the effect that the mental attitude of most men or women of 45 or older is unfit for governing youth. “Men at 45 have reached a philo- sophical complacency out of harmony with the energetic enthusiasms of the psychological developing youth. _They do the work at hand in an efficient manner, but lack the imaginative anld t is this attitude which handicaps them in their dealings with young people, | even their own sons and daughters,” | he stated. “It is to bring fhis challenge to the mothers and fathers that we have gone into our adult education program on & large scale,” he added. Cites Avenues Open to Youth. Dr. Marvin said that he has found that the social and psychological ave- nues for development open to youth of today vastly outnumber those of two or “I don’t know of a But in my own fleld it It is the task of every man and wom- an to keep abreast of the times, and “it is for us to keep up with the onrush of civilization in order that our lives may be lives of companionship with the young people of today,” he declared. The university head explained that in his opinion the primary principle of education is life reacting upon Ife, the contact of one personality with another. “The challenge of youth to middle age is a constant one,” he said. “To meet this challenge we must keep day by day adapting ourselves to the new in life, whether it be social, psycho- logical or mechanical, ever renewing our Youth and keeping abreast of the gen- erations we are bringing up for leader- ship tomorrow.” 250 Mothers in Audience.

They participated in a round table discussion of student problems, led by Dean Anna L. Rose, and were given the opportunity of attending reg- ular sessions of classes in the company of their daughters. KidneyTrouble!

The President had many questions to ask his caller regarding the situation in the territory he had just visited and told the Senator that he had enjoyed ' Rites Today I JULIUS EISENBEISS. listening to him on the radio.
