DUBLIN CUSTOM HOUSE is BURNED
IRENE CURIE WINS THROUGH CURIOSITY
BY MARIAN HALE


New York, May 25.-"My mother
said to me. DO American children
really trade first teeth for dead cats?'
"tMon Dieu!' cried, what is it?'"
Irene Curie threw back her head and
laughed.
"And what do you suppose she an
swered? I've been reading "TOm Saw
yer" and. want to know IL the typical
American child is wicked Mother Is
so curious"
There Irene Curie. struck the key
note of the impelling motive that has
made Madame Curiesone Of the worlds
foremost scientists-the disc0verer Of
the worlds most precious substance,
radium.
But the mother has more apprecia-
tion Of science than of humor
Irene Curie is her mothers second
self-a student working for her de-
gree, pursuing Independent researches,
aiding her mother in her laboratory.
The other daughter, Eve, visiting
America with them, is quite different.
Eve is gildy," says the simple,
somber Irene. "But Of that mother
and l are glad. Eve is unthinking
and unscientific. 1t is to protect peo-
pie like Eve that people like mother
and 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 we'll wish that danced in
stead OF experimenting.
The Human Stage

isn't it? One lifts the curtain-and
one drops it-and that is all. We are
each appointed and we take our place,
and If we are wise we do it with the

l referred to Madam Curie's great
discovery and to her husband. who
also was a scientist and associated
with her in her researches. "
Mother, you know, thinks that men
and women do better il they marry"
she said. "She thinks they do better
especially if they have the same in
terests and can work together. But,
this is important, mother discovered
radium alone!"
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. -..- n.... g..
Mother thinks only of science, not
of commerce." she said.
And to this further inquiry, What
does your mother think of America?
his was the reply:
I'VE haven't had time to think. An
answer now would be superficial. And
mother can't be superficial thinker.
# she were she never would have
solved one Of the great secrets; super
yficial women don't do things like that.
