HAY a fellow lover of detec-
V tive stories take exception
through your columns 10 a
remark OF Mr.. Arthur 3. Reeve in
his very interesting article in re-
cent issue. What Are the Great De-
tective Stories and Why? Speaking
of Mrs. Rinehart's work he says:
Her detective stories are splen-
did stories. but no outstanding
detective character in them cap
lures the public. which seems TO
be true of all the women writer's
of detective fiction.
1t Is the last two lines I protest.
And i protest in the name of Joseph
Muller, the unique detective charac
ter created by Augusta Croner OF
Vienna, whose "The Lady in Blue"
is now running in popular maya
zine. Muller has not been before the
American public long enough to be-
come such a popular figure as Sher-
lock Holmes or even NJ. Leccq. And
part OF his short life in American
fiction was shadowed by war clouds
But the public have seemed to like
him sufficiently to buy the books
that tell of his adventures And he
is as unique in his way as are his
two great predecessors. We; differing
so widely from them as to claim at
tention from his own qualities.
Women can create outstanding de-
tective characters, as Muier has
proven.
Then there is "Fibsy." By Carolyn
Wells. He is more interesting than
Fleming Stone. And if MISS Wells
would devote most of her attention
in the next few books to F1bsy he
would soon take a place ariong the
immortals.
Thanking you.

table of food values at the end.
He tells what should not be eaten
and what may be eaten in aay de-
sired quantity; tells when to drink
pints and pints of water and when
not TO drink at all; why some per-
sons are fat and others thin; of
sleep and its relation to health and
overweight: of baths and bathing;
what right living does for the COM
plexion; exactly what exercises are
beneficial; how to become thin and
low to stay thin-two separate OPP
erations. In a word. his book is an
expansion Of his useful and valuable
lectures. and DR.. Copeland has been
generous enough to risk being called
"a writing doctor for the sake of
spreading more widely than he could
in any other way the simple and
safe precepts for maintaining health
full weight.
AS to the Importance OF this point
he is emphatic and insistent. He
says:
When we forget about fatness
as a factor in measuring beauty
and think Of it as a factor in
shortening life, then it will not
be so difficult to conform to the
rules Of good sense. Unless per-
sons inclined to take on flesh
are exceedingly watchful they
will get fat In spite Of them
selves. Exercise and dieting are
absolutely necessary. There can
be no escape. Every pound OF
excessive weight lessons the
chance OF living. Young persons
need not be much concerned
about .fatness; but a person so
years Of age and fifty pounds
overweight has reduced his ex-
pectation of life so per cent
When this fact is kept in mind
by every participant the "expe-
rience meeting" will show loss of
weight on the part of every one

was published. I was too young to
understand what il was all about
and for that reason it was discussed
in my presence-but I can recall
that it was the most straitlaced and
the most virtuous who stout'y MAIN
tanned their belief in the truth Of
every word of it.
Every one must conseoe that
Byron was a cad and a vulgarian,
but why, just because he was black,
rub him with SCOT? Why rot give
him the benefit of the doubt occa-
sionally? One does not try to prove
him a pirate on account of "The
Corsair," although doubtless he
would have fancied himself in that
role. He spent his whole lie posing
for himself. and he certainly loved
to let himself out in his letters,
especially In those to Tom Moore.
No one ever seems to remember that
a few days previous to Byron's mar
riage to Miss Millbank he wrote to
Moore that if he could give her hap
piness he would have secured his
own. Also after his marriage he
wrote the same friend that although
he still believed that marriage should
be preceded by a preliminary canter,
as for himself he was certain that he
would renew his contract at the ex-
piration of the trial period.
No one can accuse the man of be-
ing obscure. and why. instead of
trying to torture new meanings out
Of his poems. would 1t not be as well
to consider the lines that ne really
addressed to Augusta Leigh?
When a man writes:

EDITOR BOOK SECTI0N-SW:
TN your issue of April "a, in a
review of my book, "The Great
White South" which is an ac-
count of my experiences with the
British Antarctic Expedition Of 1910
1913, it is stated: but remember
that this expedition is the one tha,
failed. Remember that Scott died.
and how he died. and that before
he died he had the bitterness of find
ing that Amundsen had won the
race
This sentence is a deep injustice
TO the memory of a great explorer
and those who died with him. Capt.
ScOtt's expedition to the South Pole
was one of the most brilliantly sue
cessful scientific enterprises ever
sent out from any land. In every
branch of the undertaking success
was achieved. In no sense was it
a failure. and should not be con-
founded with subsequent expeditions.
That the leader and his four COM
panions should hove perished on
their homeward way, after reaching
the goal Of their hopes, surely does
not detract from the measure of
their success; death must come to
all. and it was Capt. Scott's creed.
as stated to his old friend Sir
Clements Markham before leaving
for the south on this his second ex-
pedition to the Antarctic: II can
imagine no finer death than that of
one who. having attained the object
which he sought, dies rejoicing in
his achievement" Scott achieved his
ambition. for before meeting his end
with sublime resigna tion and courage
he accomplished all that he had set
out to do.
True. the Norwegian expedition
reached the pole a month before
Scott, but. as / have very clearly
shown in the last chapter of my
book, there was never any attempt
to race on Scott's part. The Nor
wegian expedition was QUILTED for
and left Norway with the expressed
and published intention of going to
the North Pole. and not until Scott
had published his plans to all the
world. and was well on his way to
the south. did he receive the news
that Amundsen had changed his. and
would endeavor TO anticipate Scott
in reaching the South Pole. Scott
Immediately let the world know that
he had no intention of racing As
the leader of a great scientific en-
terprise he could not risk jeopardiz-
ing the success of the undertaking
merely to attempt to reach the pole
before the Norwegians.
The meteorological, biological. zoo
logical. magnetic. oceanographic and
perhaps 1 may be permitted to add
Photographic results of the Scott ex-
pedition far exceeded in value to
science the results of any previous
expedition to the Antarctic regions.
But had the expedition produced
nothing more than the story of the
reaching the pole and the immortal
The New York herald., 1922-05-21

message which the dying leader left
TO the world it would have been
well worth while.
That the Norwegian expedition,
which was not scientific, in the sense
that Scott's was, should have reached
the pole first was perhaps not sur
prising. for it purposed to be dash
to the pole. and nothing more. The
majority of the members of the Scott
expedition remained in the south
nearly a year after the pole was
reached.
Scott and his chosen died, "but
their souls march on to point the way
still to deathless courage and hero
ism, which shall last in the records
of the race as long as time endures."
1t was with the object of keeping
this stirring story of heroism, self
sacrifice and devotion to duty-a
story without parallel in the annals
of exploration-fresh in the hearts
Of young people that I wrote my
book.
In justice to the memory of my
late chief, and those gallant gentle
men who died with him, trust you
will grant me space for this letter
lest a wrong impression be created
of those of my countrymen who so
willingly gave their lives for the
cause Of science. am, sir,

Oxford Women Smoke Less
Census Shows That Practice Il
on Decline

LONDON. Dec. Is (By Mail).-
Women az smoking less at Oxford,
according to "1he Daily Mail"
An informal census of the habits
Of the Oxford woman undergraduate
reveals the interesting TACT that,
roughly speaking. only one in five
smokes. and that in the 90 per cent
OF smokers very Few make a habit of
the cigarette.
They smoke one or two now and
then. as social accomplishment
rather than pleasant amusement. The
under rgraduate who invites her friends
and acquaintances 10 8 o'clock cocoa
IS not expected to provide either
"gaspers" or Egyptians. 1t is no slur
on hospitality not TO offer smoke.
Without doubt smoking is on the de-
cline in Oxford. One reason may be
that the modern undergraduates goes to
Oxford TO prepare for a profession and
IS not for the most part rich. But, with
full allowance for such local influences,
the census strengthens the general
opinion that women smoke less and
that the fashion is gradually waning in
England as in many other countries.
