SAYS HECTIC LIFE MAKES
SOCIETY GIRLS OLD AT 20
Woman Doctor Finds Them Worn
Out and Nerve e-Tired

London. Dec. S.-"Worn out at
twenty was the phrase applied to the
modern society girl by DR.. Agnes Savill,
eminent woman doctor, in striking
lecture before the London Institute of
Hygiene.
"The society girl nowadays dispenses
with a chaperon," she said, "and her
mind Is becoming poisoned by the hectic
life that she leads, her cigarettes, whis-
kies and sodas, and unhealthful meals.
When she marries her standard of
relationship with her husband and chill
dren will not be high one.
II have seen some Of these girls.
After few years Of society life they
age by ten years. and already at the
age of twenty they are as worn out
and nerve tired as If they were forty
II think the cocktail habit among
young girls is a serious danger. 1t is
lamentable girl Of twenty cannot take
a meal without first having n cocktail. -
DR.. Savill blames parents for what
she describes as "this physical degen-
eration," asserting only they can
remedy it.

Gratis Of Maryland, who gathered yes.
terday to celebrate the recent Demo.
cratic victory.
Mrs. Wilson said that former Presi-
dent Wilson. while not 80 far on the
road to health as recent newspaper re-
ports had indicated, was much better
than he had been at any time since
his recent Illness, :.
"Mr. Wilson," she said, ''is the
most wonderful patient imaginable. He
also has the greatest store of patience
which II is possible to have, and he
does exactly what he Is told"
"fIe depends great deal on his
cane, but this dependence is noticeably
less than II was several months ago.
During the last summer he has made
greater Improvement than Mt any other
time since his illness.
"A tonic which Doctor Grayson has
prescribed for him is part of his daily
regimen. He is absolutely faithful to
It, and he has an excellent appetite"
CherbOurg, Dee. S.--Joseph p. Tu-
multy. before embarking on the Ma
jestic yesterday with his seventeen
year old daughter Mary, who was the
victim Of grave automobile accident

"Woodrow Wilson will henceforth
play an important role in politics. The
failure of the various Internal tiOnal con-

more than ever that the League of
Nations had not been taken seriously.
He now is rallying with greater
conviction to this four-ye old prof.
ect."
