INSTINCT

Survival of fighting instincts, de-
veloped in earliest mankind, explains
the widespread interest in the coming
encounter between M. Carpenter and
Mr.. Dempsey.
DR.. George w. Grille, of Cleveland,
says however that the same instinct
manifests itself in all games, start
ing with play of children. Chess,
tennis, baseball, alike are based on
attack and defense, struggle, contest.
Each is interesting because unnum-
bered generations lived by fighting
for life.

COMMENTS
CRAFTS, the quiet Sun

WILBUR CRAFTS, the quiet Sun
" day advocate, says he is in ia
vor of one form of Sunday recrea-
ton. Rambling! It's a lost art.
Quiet lanes are deserted. The old
time ramblers who peopled these
lanes are flivvering with their chill
dren and grandchildren.
We'd like to hear debate on the
question, "Is it better to flivver than
to rambler" The flivverite covers
more miles of nature; but the old
time rambler saw more and learned
more.
Henry David Toreau, naturalist
and most renowned of ramblers
wrote a 300-page beck on what he
learned while rambling.
Let's plan ramble for next Sun
day!

HANDS FULL.

Richard Washburn Child, soon to
sail as American ambassador to Italy,
says he believes less in preaching
than in good example. lie adds that,
''lf there is anything worse than say
ing 4 am not my brothers keeper
it is saying, I insist on being my
brothers keeper
One thing to be said for that view
is that most of US who attempt to
police ourselves properly, without
undertaking to regulate others, will
have our hands full.

EQUITY.

Two boys were brought before a
Philadelphia judge charged with
stealing ride on a freight train.
They had little money, and were try

Stealing rides at the present
freight rates is no crime, the judge
held.

 For the purpose of encouraging large families the Berlin municipal schools are giving cut rates to child ren when there are several attend ing school Public schools in Ger man are not free as in America bachelors and spinsters refuse to pay taxes to educate the neighbor' s children Tuition must be paid for each child.
 A graduated scale of tuition has been introduced varying according to the income of the father and the number of children in school. A parent earning 30,000 marks a year must pay 500 marks school tax for the first child, 25 per cent rebate for the second child and 50 per cent rebate for the third. The fourth child is free.
 If the fathers income is less than 2O.0O0 marks, the first child has a rebate of 5Q per cent and the sec ond's education is free.

By FRANK E. MASON,

BERLIN, Aug. 22.-The Tapping of the wings of Dr. Stork, heard so little during the war, is again a familiar sound in Germany The pessimists have ceased worrying about race suicide" and a receding birth rate, and instead are now gloomy about how to dispose of Ger many's surplus population, with no colonies.
 The birth curve fell so low dur ing the war that it went off the chart. Statisticians in the Neue Berliner estimate that nearly five million children would have been born in Germany under normal con- ditions between the years 1914 and 1919.
 Last year the birth rate passed the death rate for the first time since 1914 and fears of trace sui eide are past. The death rate, in- cidentally, has increased from l5.S

American Girl Creates Sen sation-Tanned Every

PARIS, Aug. 23-How a, woman can get sunburned everywhere above the waist line is a question which is perplexing Deauyille.
 Although the bathing suits are scantily cut, all have shoulder straps and the more scantily cut evening, gowns always reveal the exact out line of the bathing suit by showing white skin beyond the tan.
 Gossip follows the appearance of a blonde American girl at the Casino wearing the most daring backless chemise gown ever seen, the corsage consisting solely of two tiny triangles of beaded net held up by ropes of pearls over the shoulders.
 Although the costume represented the irreducible minimum in raiment, causing even the hardened baccarat players to sit up and take notice, not a single square inch of white skin was revealed-the girl was tanned everywhere above the waist line.
 Speculation as to how she became sunburned all over resulted in noth- ing until some one suggested she must have been swimming la Sep tember Morn in some sequestered nook. The polo players have decid- ed to find the nymphs pool and horseback riding along the seashore in the early morning suddenly has become popular.

sin mission areached London. Roth stein quickly attached himself to the mission and thus obtained immunity. He returned to Russia, with Krassin, aboard British destroyer, but 1t was alleged that he attempted to convert British sailors to the Bol- shevik cause and the government re- fused to permit him to return.
 Lenine placed Rothstein in the for eign office at Moscow. According to word received here, he asked to be sent to Teheran, arguing that his spe- cial knowledge of British affairs in Persia peculiarly fitted him for the task of wipng out British influence at the Shah's capital and converting the country to Bolshevism.
 Arriving at Teheran, he speedily won favor with the Shah and his court by showering them with costly presents and all kinds of attentions. He made a great hit with the people ny inviting them to make themselves at home in the beautiful gardens of the Russian embassy.
 Within a few weeks Rothstein had organized a propaganda service and was dictating policies of Persian newspapers He obtained the sup port of nomad tribes by liberal ex- penditure of Moscow money. Now he is reported to be preparing a new coup-the setting up of Bolshevist ministry that will revoke all the con sessions previously granted to Brit ain
