MOSCOW, Oct. 90 (By The AS
ISOLATED Press).-The repeated re-
fusal of the powers to take into
consideration Russia's most elemen-

contributing to the consolidation of
a general peace, creates conditions
which are likely to bring serious
international complications, say a
note addressed to Great Britain aid
Italy by the soviet foreign minister,
NJ. Tchitcherin.
Considering Russia's geographical
situation and the political poua-
daries uniting her with some of the
Black Sac, says the note. It should
be quite evident that a peaceful
solution of the Near Eastern prob
lem is in the treaty negotiations.
1. is. pointed out hat having rec

East question without limiting it.

The straits question, it Is added,

PUPILS HEAR
v. [. T.U. TALK
Mrs. La Nance Compares Old
Time Girls With Flappers
Of Today

Mrs. Lorra S. La Nance, a speak
er for the Women's Christian Temp
erance Union, yesterday afternoon
addressed the students of the Perth
Amboy high school. She compared
humorously and seriously the an
cient medieval periods to modern
times. Dwelling chiefly upon the
fact that a clean person has the best
ability to come through all situa-
tons with flying colors the speaker
pointed out the evils Of the alcoholic
and tobacco habits.
The temperance speaker said in
part: about two thousand years
ago the Romans in their great con-
conqueror built walls of impregna-
BILE size and within these fortifica-
tons towns sprung up, giving us the
present cities of Manchester, Leeds,
London, Liverpool and other great
cities.
However, the Romans content to
rest on their laurels allowed the
walls to split open. Earth soon fill
ed up the cavities in the wall and
within a few days a species of flow
ers began to flourish there. These
flowers were possessed of a wonder
full fragrance and beauty. The
Romans when they returned
carried with them the seeds Of this
flower and soon there blossomed in
Southern Europe the f~ore-runner of
the present day carnation.
Everyone OF us here Is a de-
scendant Of Europeans. 1t makes
no difference whether you are Ita.-
ian, French, Spanish, German. Rus
sian or whatever it may be your
~forefathers were once uncivilized.
Gradually the people became more
and more civilized.
THE boys of several hundred
years ago were well built. tall IN
stature, muscular in action and
bodies covered with a hairy layer
while the young girl of nat dav
was nothing like the 1apper OF
today. She was strong, but no:
beautiful and could have easily
thrown two of you boys at a one
time.
do you know hat it took forty
two generations to make you as
handsome as you are today. The
process of becoming beautiful IS
still. going on and will continue to
go IN. We have now more gray
matter than our ancestors. But are
we using it.
THE American people have what
ia known as a sensitive brain, that
is, it reaches with surprising alac-
rity to alcoholic drinks. One hun
dred years ago the strong men of
New Jersey and Pennsylvania ard
New York used to gather in one
place and see who was the strong
est. They used to perform feats
which l believe not a person today
can initiate.
"a man in those days would get
full of liquor two or three times a
yea and never feel the effect the
day after his carousal. But not a
mar today can do the same thing. 1t
was because of his great vitality and
open-air living that saved him. Just
try any of u cheap present day
home brew and you are sure to feel
the effects for seven days to come.
Boys n hundred years ago
never thought of walking thirty
miles a day, but try and get a young
mar to walk two miles today and he
will ask you what r the trolley
cars and buses for. Men used to
chew tobacco Is girls now chew their
gum necessarily.
Boys and girls we have TO study
our own selves first and correct
any non-useful habits we may have.
Discard them and watch the re-
suits. Your health will improve
by leaps and bounds.
