THINKS SECRET OF SEX MAY

secret of the determination of sex pos
sibly NAV be found in plant life. sir
oliver Joseph Lodge told the British
association. at its meeting here. Re
ferring to the fact that some plants
produce both male and female flowers.
he said this must be the result of some
profound change in the sap at tho
junction in the stems, where different
" seXed flowers branch away from
each other. He continued:
I do not know what this is and the
microscope tells me nothing. Perhaps
if Psychologists could find out what
happens in that little plant joint they
might get a clue why some human
lives are born boys and other girls

NEW FEATURES FOR
HOMECOMING WEEK
Several Novel Attractions Add
ed to Program-Committee
Will CenSure All Shows to be
Sure of Moral Standard.

Several new attractions have been
added to the program for the home
coming week celebration the first
week Of September by the committee
in charge. A meeting Of the commit
tee Will be called by Pres. Ostrander
within a few days at which these at
fractions will be given their space and
applications for more space disposed
of. The committee will, in all prob
ability. lay out the section to be used
bv the various attractions and then
will assign space for the separate
shows.
OF course the carnival company
that is TO come will be given a GER
tain amount Of space to be used as
they will in placing their various at
fractions.
Ii is understood that the carnival
part of the celebration will be one Of
the best that has ever been seen in
this vicinity. Members of the COM
mittee in charge say that it will be
far superior to anything previously
shown in Mishawaka and state that
ii will also surpass South Bend
carniva1s. For some time the local
committee was thinking of engaging
the Hatch water carnival that show
ed in South Bend last year. They
were able TO secure one of more
merit, however, so the offer of the
Hatch people was overlooked.
The committee is taking special
pains TO see that all shows and at
fractions staged here are clean moral
ly. Entrance tickets have been de-
manded for members of the Business
Mems association that they may in
spect and censure all attractions. 1t
is understood that tickets will also be
offered the local ministry in order
that these men may censure the shows
if they so desire.
The advertising committee is just
starting its work. 1t is planned to
print large posters and send them
throughout the surrounding vicinity.
Boom cars and delegations will
probably tour cities and towns in the
immediate vicinity shortly before the
week Of the celebration. AS il is sew
eral large signs have been painted
and stretched across the streets of
the city advertising the week.
Those in charge expect to see
hundreds of old residents return 10
Mishawaka during the celebration to
visit with their old friends and spend
a week in their former home.

cation of the 200 letters culled from
