QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

o. In what states is marriage be- tween cousins forbidden? Has such marriage been demonstrated as unde- sirable? P. E. D.
 A. Marriage between cousins is forbidden by law in Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Ore gon, South Dakota, Washington and Wyoming. Experts on eugenics state that intermarriage of blood relatives is likely to intensity in the children any family traits that are common in both parents. Where there are family weaknesses intermarriage is therefore undesirable. If there are no dangerous common weaknesses the offspring are likely to be normal, and if there are common traits of strength, these may be intensified in the offspring. Sci entists generally are not as strongly opposed to marriage of cousins as is public opinion.
 Q. What nationality is most in clined to insanity? D. s. A.
 A. The 1910 census showed that there were 13,517 Germans in the in- sane asylums of this country, and that this was the largest number of any natlOnallty.
 Q. Is the 4th of July a national or state holiday? F. J.
 A. The 4th of July has never been made a national holiday by act of congress. It has been made a legal | holiday by every state in the union and it's observance therefore is or | state authority. John Adams prob | ably originated the idea of it's being a holiday when on July 4, 1776, in g | speech he prophesied that it would come to be celebrated by proper dis 1 plays, shows, sports and fireworks It was immediately after this speech that John Hancock ordered the ring ing of Old Liberty bell thus inaugur- l ating the first celebration.
 Q. Can cross eyes be made normal E. F.
 A. It is usually possible by com paratively simple operation of cutting l the muscles which hold the eyt crooked, thus allowing it to come back ! to normal.
 o. Who discovered radium? N. J. A. Radium was discovered in 1S9| by Marie Curie of Paris, and Monsieur
 Curie, her husband. The credit is as.
 signed chiefly to, Madame Curie.
