LONGER LIFE PREDICTED Longer life for man is prophesied by Pro- fessor Jullan Huxley in an essay just pube lished, in which he says: “By eugenic measures we could unquestion- ably raise the average span on human life even without further progress in hygiene. 1If, as wo may confidently predict, the present trend of affairs continues, more and more men will attain an advanced age, naturally by re- juvenaticn.” The dedth rate of infants and young peo- ple will continue to fall, Professor Huxley | predicts, and the birth rate will do llkewise. “As a result of this we shall in a few decades have a population in which the rela- tive numbers of young and old people will be quite different from the present, he be- lieves.

BERLIN Berlin, Nov. 18 ®—The death of Major General von Heeringen, former imperial Ger- man War minister, recalls one of the most painful scenes enacted at Doorn since the exile of the former Kaiser. Several months before his death, General von Heeringen, whom the army nicknemed Santa Claus be- cause of his flowing beard, came to Doorn to pay his respects to his former commander- in-chief. At dinner William II said to his gues “Well, my dear general, when do you sup- pose we two shall meet in Berlin?" our majesty will pardon me if I speak freely,” von Heeringen replied, “but neither of us, I belieye, will live to see the day.” The head of the house of Hohenzollern was 80 offended at this all too frank reply that the dinner was broken up and the aged general left Doorn early the following morning. DOMESTIC DRAMA A COMEDY A domestic drama in which the wife gave her husband a merry laugh enacted itself in the want-ad section of the Kalkberge village daily near Berlin, The paper printed the fol- lowing not unusual notice: “I warn my friends not to lend my wife any money. 1 will not be responsible for her debts.—Fritz Woratscheck.” The next day the wife replied in the same columns: “Dear Fritz: Don't worry. I have bor- rowed enough. All you have to do is pay the bills—Helene Woratscheck.” ANNUAL PILGRIMAGE The pllgrimage ot Hohenzollerns to the tomb of Empress Auguste Victorla, first wife of ‘William II, in the park of Sans Souci in Pots- dam in commemoration of her birthday, was solemnized this year with even greater rever- ence than in the past. Four of the former Kalser's aix living sons and daughters de- posited wreaths in the historic temple where lie buried a number of Hohenzollern kings and queens. Prince Eitel Friedrich came with a wreath from his father in Doorn an hour after the Potsdam county court granted the Prin- cess Eitel a divorce on grounds of cruelty and neglect. Princess Hermine's floral tribute was placed in the temple by General von Dommes. The Empress died in 1921. VON BERNSTORFF'S REMINISCENCES Count Johann Heinrich von Bernstorff, war~ time ambassador to the United States, nar- rates an amusing experience during his stay in Washington. One night he was invited to a reception at which all the diplomats ap- peared in brilliant uniforms adorned with decorations, one more costly than another. The flashiest medal, however, was worn by an American, a self-made man generally re- garded as a social climber. The decoration fairly blazed with diamonds, sapphires and emeralds. Everybody wondered by what Ori- ental potentate this citizen had been honored. Count von Bernstoff sald he was finally elected as-the man to probe into the origin of the unusual plece of jewelry. “What an extraordinary high decoration,” the ex-ambassador said he asked the man, whose chest expanded with Yankee pride. “Yea,” the man replied. “My own inven- tlon, Afn't it a beauty BERLINERS ALL EXCITED Berliners are all het up about a “mountain’ they are soon to have. Proud as they are of their city, they always have winced when tourlsts taunted them about the flatness of the metropolis, which in that respect remind- ed them of Chicago. Doubting Thomases will soon enjoy Alpine breezes for the price of a subway ticket. Near the fair grounds a “mountain” 250 feet high is being bullt out of tin cans and dirt from subway excavations. Thus far the altitude record has been held by the so-called “Kreuzberg,” a park-like elevation on the south. But Berliners fcel that an artificial hill 250 feet high is a real mountain and sport- ing editors are already discussing possible ski- ing tournaments.

Parts, Nov. 13 (P—Penniless gamblers have been particularly invited to a 40-day prayer meeting in the mountains just back of Monts Carlo, the world famous gambling resort, by Jean Buvais, fhe sago of Notre Dame de Laghet. Buvais is organizing the mecting in the hopes of saving Europe from a calamity which he thinks is on its way. The opening of the meeting will coincide with that of the gambling season, and Buvals wants penniless gamblers to seek solace in prayer from tha ill-directed shots of the little roulette ball. 8o strong is the sage of Notre Dame's pow= er over the peasants and shepherds for miles around that success is assured the meeting, even should every gambler prove prosperous and impenitent. For forty years Buvais has been foretell. ing the future. His disciples claim for him a ninety per cent record of {ruthful predic- tions. Until now he has confined himself to predicting losses for the roulette adepts and the fall of French cabinets within three months. Jean has now branched out in the more sen- sational field of world disasters and the prays er meeting {s called to prevent “the lost con-- . tinent of Atlantis arising from the ocean and causing the wickedest section of the world to disappear.” Jean does not include the little principality, of Monte Carlo among the wicked and he pre- dicts that Monaco is safe from disaster. MODEL OF BATTLING SIKI The late Battling Siki, superbly modeled in wax, i3 much in evidence in the show wine dow in one of the brand new shops of Lens, and is about the only reminder that Georges Carpentier first saw the light of day through the dusty, smoky atmosphere of this mining town. - Georges himself is absent from the show window, The tremendous things that happened in the region after Georges left it have driven box- ing and boxers to the background. Anzin has its Mascarts, other towns of the coal belt have their “hopes,” cock-fighting has come back into its own and javelin throwing is again popular, but Francols Descamps, the former Tex Rickard of the coal country, has no successor, and the “Young Carpentier” that might bring the manly art back inte favor has failed to reveal himself. “The next champion from Lens,” sald one of the rare citizens who take an interest in the matter, “is likely to have a name that sounds more like ‘Young Polski’ than Car- pentier. The Poles outnumber us,” he added. “Some day they will outvote us, and there is no reason to doubt that they will outbox us.’ NO MORE TIN SOLDIERS Locarno struck a death blow to the little tin soldiers, rows of which the French children were wont to align at Christmas time. Tha department stores and toy houses no longer carry extensive lines of them and the multi- colored, uniformed little chaps have practical= ly disappeared from their windows, The Paris Municipal Council Is also con- fronted with a proposal emanating from a Communist Councillor asking the suppression in all gifts of toys made by the city to poor children in the schools of such artlcles as rifles, cannon, pistols, army caps and tin or lead soldiers. Thus the minds of the French youth will not be directed toward thoughts of war, the motion says, but trained in the spirit of peace. For once a Communist pro- posal is likely to be accepted by the City Councfl, it having met with general favor. The second part of the motion, suggesting that the soldiers be replaced by hammers and sickles—the Soviet emblem—will ‘probably have to stand severer knocks and may be cut out altogether. RICH FIRE APPARATUS Parls firemen will henceforth speed to con- flagrations in luxurlous upholstered red cov- ered machines. Comfort is the keynote of the heavywelght automobile show, as it was of the luxury car exposition which preceded it. But the new machines for firemen are the last word In luxury, The ease and convenlence of driver and pas- senger seems to be the guiding principle of designers of the imposing trucks, majestic om- nibuses and ingenious fire fighting machines displayed. Some of the autocars are as elab- orately fitted as Pullmans, one conveyance bullt to cross the Sahara being provided with a fine kitchen and eight real comfortable beds.
