close of the meeting that good
means TO build up this city, would be
to encourage the raising of livestock

hoped that the proposed livestock

Los Angeles seems to be the favor
tie. The Swedes, Firms, English and
French, disguised with the manner
in which the games were conducted
in Antwerp, have demanded that the
games be given to America, not only
because they. believe an American

cause they are anxious to get the
"joy ride trip" to the Pacific coast.
Held in America, the next games

England, strong in the running

development of hurdlers and field

New York, Oct. z (by Henry L.

athletic crown worn so long by the
United States is destined for another
head in the Olympic games of 1924"
This boast was made in Antwerp

ton of the 3OOO-metre team race,

But the conclusion of the European
critics that the poor showing was
the result of decline in the phys

American athletes is wrong.

not sweep the track as did the sprint

PARISIANS ADMIT THEY
ARE EARTH'S FLOWERS

Paris. (by maiD .-Parisians-that
is, Partisan of pure-blood, whose fam
lilies have resided at Paris for gen.
erations, are rapidly developing
physical characteristics that distingu-
lsh them from everybody who isn't
pure-blood Parisian..
What's more, Messrs. Marie and
MacAuliffe, who have just contribut-
ed the above information to the
French Academy of Medicine, have
unblushingly added the deduction
being themselves pure-blooded Paris
sians-that this, new physical type
which Paris reproducing represents
the highest type of civilized man.
Climate, French culture, French
cooking, French wines-in fact, ev-
erything that goes to make up French
Partisan life-have contributed to
cause these changes in the physical
aspects of the real Partisan.
According to Messrs. Marie and
MacAuliffe, these changes are as fol-
lows:
/. Increase in cranial capacity
that is, actual development of a larg-
cI SldlluAl \1Au IlOG ulCAc S"cAk-
head).
2. Decrease in the length of the
arms and legs.
3. Increase in the heighth of the
bust.
4. Discoloration of the eye.
S. Gradual change in the color of
the hair to paler and lighter tints.
6. Ever increasing number of
microcephalous (whatever that is).
This new physical type that Paris
produces is scientifically classified as
the cerebral type of man.
However it is admitted that it re-
quires several generations at Paris
before one begins to reap this higher
type of development so there is no
reason why American tourists should
include it in one Of the advantages
they expect to get out of a three
weeks trip to Europe.
