My advice to you, Anne, is to stay away from him Every why, although his mother was all the time promising herself she would go down to El Paso and Fort Bliss, she never scemed to find the time to do it. Phil, who at first was somewhat hurt, grew to be rather thankful that she did not, for he felt they were growing apart. She still thought of him as a boy, but he knew that since he had come to Fort Bliss, if not before, he was a man. Of course he loved his mother dearly, but this old world was changing very rapidly and his moth- er did not seem to be keeping up with the proccssion. Although Phil did not realize it, his experience with Gladys had ex- erted a far-reaching influence on his character. He seemed to be settling | down, whether he would or not. At first, he was much with Marta Tennis, but she, like all other girls in America, got the craze and joined the “Y'" and was soon sent to some station outside of El Paso. She promised to write to him, but seemingly had forgotten him. It was then that he and Lieutenant Andrews had agreed to disagree. Phillip could not be otherwise than a good soldier with the tradi- tlons of his family behind him, and when he had made up his mind that being in the army a good soldier was the thing to be, he settled down to regular drill and the monotony of army life with a will. | The lite out of doors, the drilling and the plain, coarse food, although (it was not palatable to either Rod | or Phil, was making them both hard muscled and healthy.

After she had told him that under any circumstances she would go to New York to see Wynne, Aunt Julia came again to the rescue. 8he told her brother he ought to realize that Natles was in love with Phil—that she had always been in love with him, and that unless he wanted to | make her perfectly |lite, he should give his consent for her to marry Wynne, “Anyway,” she added, “I'm going { to see that you don’t let your preju- | dice ruin your daughter's life as you {did mine. I'm going td take Natlee | with me to New York and we'll stay |at the Waldorf as long as Phillip | Tracy is in town. She shall have her jonce chance, for she may never see her lover again.” With this, Mr. Jones had to be content, although he did say he was right, that he did not see where this war would take the girls as well as the boys. Natlee very frankly gave herself into Phil's arms when she saw him, and as he kissed her eyes, her hair and her lips, she murmured: “Oh, Wynne, you don’t know how I've missed you. 1 was so afraid you | would fali in love with that Marta Tennis you wrote about.” “Well, what about Jerome Ken- yon, Nat? You practically told me your father thought you ought to marry him, and according to his notion be happy ever afterward.” “I didn’t tell you what I thought about it, did I, Wynne?” “No, dear, and you must never think about anybody else but me, for whatever foolish things I have done, I never intended to marry anyone but you. “Dear Natlee, don't let's talk about being separated and having | to remember things.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editdr Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy- gela, the Health Magazine. Members of the department of psychology & Stanford University have recently made available the re- sults of a study of the_ factors re- sponsible for what we know as gen- fus. They studied the life records of 300 eminent men and women of history, paying particular attention | to thelr early behavior, thelr bright- ness while young, their energy. their ancestry and their body-bguild. Among the factors concerned in the production of genius, are home, home training and discipline, home intereats, education, and the amount of travel and geading. Interesis were rated as to Intellectual and | social activity, as well as to their breadth and intensity. Sixty-seven traits of character were recorded such as balance, desire to be liked by others, bravery, forcefulness, perserverancs, and simflar attrib- utes. Genlus Shows Early. The conclusions reached by this «tudy have the greatest interest for or for any one who that make for success. For in- ance, there were among the most eminent m some who, in child- hood, had inteliigence below the highest order. This i8 explained on the grounds that high but not the highest intelligence, combined with the greatest degree of persist- ence, will achieve greater eminence than the highest degree of intem- gence with somewhat less persis- ersons who achieved eminence as artists are characterized by cer- tain personality trends; degree of esthotic fecling, desire to excell and belief in their own powers. They have also originality of ideas, in- telligence and persistence of motive. Persons who achieved eminence as writers were above the average in the good traits of character. They rated lower in persistencejand balance but higher in all the soclal traits and in the emotienai than did the average eminent man. They were characterzied also by a de- gree of imaginativeness, esthetic feeling and amount of work spent on pleasures that were higher than for other groups. They also excedd- ed the average eminent man in their desire to be lcaders, in rating their special talents correctly, in originality of idea, {in strength of memory, and in keenness of obser- vation.
