MADAME CURIE WINS FAME
THROUGH HER CURIOSITY
BY MARIAN HALE.

NEW; YORK. May 25.-"My mother
said to me. Do American children
really trade first teeth for dead cats?'
".Mon D1eu. cried, what isitr"
Irene curie threw back her head
and laughed
.And what do you suppose she an
swered? I've been reading "Tom
Sawyer and I want to know II the
typical American child is wicked.
Mother In so curious"
There Irene Cnrie struck the keynote
Of the impelling motive that has made
Madame Curie one Of the worlds fore
most scientists-the discoverer of the
worlds most precious substance IA
dunn.
But the mother has more apprecia-
ton of science than OF humor.
Irene Curie is her mothers second
self--a student working for her de-
gree, pursuing independent researches,
aiding hersmother in her laboratory.
The other daughter. Eve, visiting
America with them. is quite different.
Eve L. giddy." says the simple,
sombre Irene. But Of that mother
and I are glad Eve Is unthfnking
and unscientific. It Is to protect peo-
PIE like Eve that people like mother
and I must work In laboratories.
"But Eve is the light In our lives.
Why should anyone want her to make
tests all day instead Of dancing? You
might as well wish that danced in
stead of experimenting.
The Human Stage.
TT Is all in the grear human drama,
isn't It? One lifts the curtaia-and
one drops it--an1 Vat - all. w. are
each appointed shd we take our place,
AMI II we are wise W. do 1t with the
utmost simplicity"
referred to Madame Curie's great
discovery and to her husband. who also
was scientist and associated with her
in her researches.
Mother, you know. thinks that men
and women do better If they marry"
she said. "She thinks they d. better
especially II they have the same inter-
ests and can work together. But, this
is important, mother discovered ra :
ctum alone!"
I asked whether her mother opposed
the use OF radium for commercial pur-
poses. believing it all should be con-
served for scientific researches and
uses.

YOUNGEST VETERAN OF
BY e NJ. THIERRY.

NEW YORK, May $50 many boy
stories about "the youngest veteran of
the world war" have been printed that
lI asked the American Legion to settle
officially just who is the youngest,
Here is the answer: Sergeant Berne
L. Wooley, of Salt Lake City, Ser
geant Wooley is eleven years old!
An exhaustive investigation covering
eight weeks was carried on by the
American Legion.
The records of many youthful vets
were examined. For time 14-year-
old soldier at Fort Riley. Kas., was be-
lieved to have the laurels.
But the investigation disclosed that
young Woeley, was officially enlisted
in the United States Marine Corps
when he was 7. He was recently hon.
| orably discharged in Salt Lake City
after 4 years Sand 8 days of active
service.
When Sergeant Wlooley's four broth
,, ers went to the recruiting station a
week after America entered the war,
Berne accompanied them. He made
such an impossioned appeal to be al
4
lowed to take on with his brothers
that a compromise was reached and
he was permitted to enlist in the re-
cruiting division.
The name Of Berne L. Wooley went
on the regular records. In 1920 a shift
was made and he was ordered to Den
yer for duty. Later he was stationed
at San Francisco marine headquarters.
In the meantime the boy had gained
two stripes as a corporal over his
original rating as a private, and later
he got three stripes as a sergeant.
Now, following his honorable discharge
he is seeking admission to the Ameri-
can Legion.
Sergeant Wooley's discharge certi-
ficate shows that he is responsible for
more than 200 men joining the ma
rines.

RUSSELL BILLS
BACK IN SENATE

TALLAHASSEE, May Ex-senator
Russell got his bill abolishing the
State Auditor reported back from the
senate committee on finance and tax
alton this afternoon without recon-
mendation. The bill has passed both
house and senate, the appropriation
being raised to- $4,000 in the house,
came to the senate for concurrence
yesterday. The senate took the some
what unusual course of referring it to
a committee. The senate could now
refuse to concur in which case the bill
would go back to the house. If the
house receded the bill would be passed.
If the house refuses to recede there
would be a conference committee. SEN
ator Russell who has been making a
great fight to pass the bill, believes it
is in no eventual danger.

JAP GOVERNMENT
IS HANDED BLAME
Former Minister OF Foreign Affairs
Calls Affair "ths Yap MIDDLE"

OSAKA. Japan, May 26.-Viscount
Takaaki Kato. former Japanese min
lister OF foreign affairs, blamed the
Japanese government for Developments
arising over the mandate to the island
of zap. during a speech before the
meeting of members of the Kensei Kai
or opposition party, here yesterday
He called the affair 'the zap mud
die" and said the government should
have obtained the American viewpoint
at Paris before final decision had been
reached by the supreme council.
He said, however, that Japan should
now insist upon her acquired rights
and should endeavor to settle the
principles and the justice of the gov
ernment's policy toward Russia and
China, declaring that Japan's failure
to show proof of her just designs had
been the cause Of growing suspicion
and hatred toward this country.
The ministry was assailed for aban-
doning Japan's especial claims in
Manchuria and Mongolia in connection
with the Chinese consortium. He
called 1t "the most deplorable diplo-
matte blunder ever committed" and
asserted it would "only sow the seeds
of future trouble"
Faith in the sincerity Of the pow
ers alone" he continued, "can never
be made a guarantee for the preser-
walton Of national prestige and integ-
rity."
viscount Kato favored restriction OF
ornaments after a proper interna-
tional understanding and said that, II
the meantime all efforts should be
made to cut down naval and military
expenditures.

Preliminary tests nave been carried
on by the poultry husbandry division
of the United States Department Of
feed for laying hens, the theory be-
ing that this material was extremely
high in vltamines and particularly val
liable in the dietary of laying hens.
In the initial test the yeast was dis
solved in warm water, added to the
mash, and the mixture allowed to
stand for "a hours until the yeast had
thoroughly permeated the feed. While
the hens ate this mash fairly well,

Unjust Mate the Restn

If the twenty-five thousand tallest
men and women in America were
mated and induced to raise two chill
dren more than the normal family
rate, and if this selection of the
tall was continued for centuries, the
average height of an American would
be increased one inch every fifteen
hundred years, according to figures
presented the International Congress
of Eugenics at New York recently by
Maj. Leonard Darwin, the New York
Times states.
IF we want more persons eminent
in morals, intellect or physical
strength to spring into existence in
all the generations to come, the most
certain method of achieving this re-
suit would be to raise the level Of
the whole people in regard to their
unborn qualities. For, if this could be
done, the factors needed for the re-
production of men of genius would
exist in greater numbers; their union
by chance in any one individual, or
the actual appearance of a man of
genius would occur more often; and
all the while lots of people would be
receiving the benefit due to their i'm
proved natural endowments," he
said.
