July contains stories and articles
dealing with Wyoming, Patagonia,
British East Africa, Austria, Hol-
land, the Yukon, Burma, Saskatche-

not only founded on fact, but are
narratives of actual experience.
Count Charles Manzoni tells the ro-

of Patagonia, where he remained for
twenty years. w. E. Priestley de-
scribes very wildly a boat voyage
which he made down the Yukon

Declares Climate i' Producing Bel.
ter Race Than North
Aryan
BUS STRIKE IS THREATENED
Owners are in Open Rebellion
Against Recent Increase in
Gasoline Prices

London, June 30.--That the in
creased efficiency, due to climatic
conditions, of the transplanted
Britisher will soon make Canada the
center point Of the British Empire
Is the statement with the Professor
Willis Moore, chief Of the United
States Weather Bureau, has startled
Londoners.
Professor Moore declares it can be
scientifically demonstrated that the
climate of the North American con-
tinent is producing race which in
mental and physical energy promises
to be distenctly more efficient than
any past nation of the Northern
Aryan race. He bases his theory on
the fact that the Northwest winds
Of the American continent, blowing
with great velocity form an extreme
altitude of vast electrical potenti-
ality, release more ozone in the
proper state for human breathing
than In any other place in the world.
The continental climate OF America
differs from the marine climates Of
Europe in the fact that most of the
winds originate over land areas and
that they carry oxygen which is
Readily transmitted into ozone by
electricity, whereas the marine
winds of the British Isles and the
European continent are lacking in
the means for releasing this virilc
element. Consequently the Ameri-
can weather expert maintains that
the American can no more control
that nervous energy which is the
marvel of Europe than he can stop
his own breathing.
According to Professor Moore,
race efficiency depends upon the
following meteorological formula:
The higher the wind velocity the
greater the downward component
of motion whereby six molecules of
oxygen Of two atoms each are
changed into three molecules Of
ozone of three atoms each, in which
form they enter the human lungs
and drive the physical and mental
engines at the maximum rate.
This is what the northwest winds
are doing for most of the United
States and Canada, which need fear
no competition from the rest of the
world as long as the winds continue
to blow.
Professor Moore also accounts for
the successful assimilation by
America of so many foreigners by
this theory, and on its account he
predicts that the American type will
become more and more pronounced
in the future.

CRISIS IN CLERICAL PARTY

Berlin, June 30--An invitation to
hold the next Olympic games in Ber-
lin in a new 100000 stadium will
be extended to the International
rOlympic Committee and its coming
meeting in Stockholm. 1t has been
understood that Germany would be
awarded the games as soon as Ber-
lin was in a position to offer suit
able Accommodations and as this con-
dition has been met by the patrio-
tic offer of three Berlin organizations
to assume the finantial RESPONSE
bility forsthe construction of the
stadium, the American athletes will
probably gather here on their next
trip across the Atlantic.
At the last meeting of the German
Imperial Committee President Won
Podbielsky announced that the Unl-
on Club, the Berlin Steeplechasing
Association and the Berlin racing
Association had offered to build the
stadium and to raise the money by
the bond issue of 100000. The
German Olympic committee, in which
all branches of athletics are repre-
sented, hopes as soon as possible to
take over these bonds among the
various organizations represented.
Count Siersstorpff, the German rep
resentative on the International
committee, was thereupon instruct
ed to tender the formal invitation at

Great Britain Is threatened with a
strike of motor car owners, who ara
in open rebellion against the recent
increases in the price Of gasoline.
The first big rise was made during
the transport strikes of last year.
which held up the usual supply of
gasoline, but with the resumption
of normal conditions there was no
corresponding reduction of price,
This caused mutterings among the
motorists, but no action was taken
until the present dock strike, when
the price again scared to such a
height that the retail cost is almost
double what it was two years ago.
The first definite action to give
voice to the complaint of the motor
lists was meeting of the Royal Au-
tomobile Club, at which the head OF
one of the leading motor spirit COM
panies had an uncomfortable hour
in trying to explain the reasons for
the rise. The Dlub members did not
hesitate to declare that they wer5
not satisfied with the explanation,
and they have entered upon def
mite campaign to force the oil inter
ests to lower the price of gasoline.
Two reasons are given by the oil
men for the increase: The first, the
rules of the Port OF London Author
ity which prohibit the storage of
large quantities of the spirit in Lon
don, thereby increasing the cost OF
1t, and, secondly, that the
steadily increasing demand for re.
fined motor spirit has left large
quantity of heavier oils on hand.

panies unless market can be found
for it. sse

physical effects of the long day.
The essential injury OF overtime /.
due to what has been graphically
proved by the ergograph that effort
increases with fatigue, that work
continued after fatigue has set in
requires so much more subsequent
/ time for recuperation. But during
rush OF overtime season such time
for reeuperation is necessarily lack
ing. The girl who is kept in the

fore the holiday which heralds the

prepared and with each day of over
time, accumulated fatigue necessarily
grows.
In theory, the recruitment of over
time is supposed to be balanced BY
the slack period which often follows.
A short period of over-exertion is
assumed to be compensated by a
subsequent let-up. But the slack
period which often follows over
time does not give the ST opposed on
portunity for leisure and recupera-
ton. 1t is itself reason of depri-
walton. For slack work means slack
pay, with consequent loss rather
than gain in opportunities for re-
cuperahon.
But deeper to this objection to the
alienation of over-work and idle
ness, is the physiological objection.
During overtime leisure and rest
are cut down at the very same time

are made upon the human organism.
