HE pest who reads the captions or sub-titles aloud at the movies is not so easy to explain. He is an intri cate study in psychology, the science of why men do as they do, is this annoyer of his neighbors. Always there is someone with him. In fact, he wouldn't think of reading the titles aloud if he were alone. So, then, his motive is most apt to be to create a favor- able impression on his companion. He is vain; feels superior; fears that the party he is with is not as quick and alert as he is—that the printed words will vanish from the silver screen before his companion can read and grasp them. Hence, in his vanity, he calls the neighbors’ attention to his companion’s dull wits by reading titles aloud for him. Quite unconsciously, tho. Does it by instinct, often without realizing. But it is by such acts that men betray their real selves—their repressed emotions and opinions of themselves, Admirable Abe EET Abraham Hershkowitz, New York patriot. He so determined to vote this year that he made a trip on a stretcher from the hospital so he could register. Good citizenship like this is enough to make a vote- slacker blush.

They, or their conferes, or colleagues, have been telling atnaa as us all along that the average adult has the mind of a Pi igp gare 12-year-old—that a man isn’t a man at all, but a babe in a dis arms and should be treated as such. Now we, learn to our astonishment and nonplusment, which soundsJike a good word, that the reverse is also true. . Here’s Frances Galvin, a strip of a girl at Dorchester, Mass., who wins the prize as “the best housewife” at the Massachusetts horticultural show. Then along comes Miss Cynthia Mallory, aged 13, who still plays with dolls, but is able to take her place and hold it among the stu- dents of the University of Michigan. Then Uldine Utley bobs up, at the age of 12, as a full-fledged preacher, hailing from Fresno, Cal. Then comes Arthur Gottsman, aged 10, who is a freshman at Oglethorpe university, Georgia.
