QUlPS AND QUIDDITIES

On the occasion of her Tooth birthday the
village centenarian received visit from her
pastor. Being anxious to hear from her own
Ups what she considered had been the source
OF her strength and sustenance, he said:
MY dear Mrs. Adams, pray tell me- that
may tell others, what has been the secret of
your longevity" The clergyman waited with
unusual earnestness for the old lady's reply
put he was hardly prepared for it when
II came. "Victuals!" she answered.
"l'n1 nickel short in my accounts"
The speaker was newsboy, and he was
addressing his pal, who ignored him and cor
tinued eating nuts.
So the speaker spoke again.
"Well,' said his pal at last, whats that got
to do with me?"
"Well,'' said the first "I'm nickel short in
my accounts, and you're eating nuts
well, Pat said Bridget, "what kind of a
bird have you brought home in the cage?'
'lts raven" replied Pat
"A raven? And why did you bring home
a bird like that?"

BY PETER NORBECK.
United States Senator from South
Dakota.
WASHINGTON. July 90 do not
favor a repeal Of the primary law for
candidates with important positions
as Governor, Senators and Congress-
men. In fact, 1 believe we shall, with
in few years, be selecting our presi-
Dental candidates by primary cleo
ton.
The primary is a forward step and
is an improvement upon the old con-
vention system. The fact that 1t has
some shortcomings not anticipated by
its ardent promoters only puts 1t in
the same class as all other reform
legislation.
I believe a solution lies in adopting
such changes in the law as experience
dictates. The fact we do not entirely
get away from the manipulation of
skillful political bosses and that some
times even under the primary law vot.
ers find it difficult to give expression
to their wishes is no reason for going
back to a system that was worse.
It seems to me the best solution
may be the adoption of a shorter bal
lot, under which the most important
officers only are nominated at a pri-
mary election.

Now Aged, Finds JOY in Reading
the Skies.
To the Editor OF The Times
1.-THE Unknown" your editc rial Of
July 4, is before me.
100000 miles above the sun the
hydrogen flames, etc.
Some distance! Now listen! For
several years at odd moments, yes
hours, have listened to tales recited
by an old man, seventy years Of age.
He has a number of photographs of
bodies cast off by the sun.
Some of them. he has said, are ca.
pable of being photographed. He turns
his kodak so that the rays Of the sun
do not hit the dlrn directly.
One of these bodies. he said, has
been fiattened into much the shape
of doubls convex lens, while others
resembled spiral nebulae.
This student of natural science, now
too old to pursue his work further
and, moreover. in no financial position
is eager to see the fruits of his re-
search perpetuated. He says that in
instances it is possible to calculate,
from photographs, exact distances of
celestial bodies from the earth.
Since the publication Of THE I'm
known and other editorials Of a scien-
tito nature this aged scientist has cul-
tivated in himself liking for your
paper.
Sincerely, we desire to know THE

CLEVELAND, July 20.-In ex-
tremities of starvation, Russia has
sunk to cannibaLsm, according to a
letter received in this city by a friend
or L. A Trofimov, a Russian resi-
dent here. The friend. fearing the
Reds, refuses to allow his name to
be made public.
Stories so horrible as to challenge
belief are in the letter-stories of
mothers killing, cooking and eating
their children; of dead bodies rotting
in the streets; of a hopeless. despair
ing nation.
The letter. struggled past the strict
mail censorship in possession of a
mutual friend leaving Russia, brands
life in the soviet nation as "a terrible
nightmare, daily growing worse"
Yes, the horrible pictures the let
ter paints are true" says Trofmov,

passports in 1918. He had served in

well might lead to cannlbalism."

Eskimos Co7StarS in "Nanook of the North,
Portray Simplicity of Polar Romance
BIZ JAMES ". DEAN

NEW YORK, July Undiscovered!
The greatest hero and heroine Of the
screen. They are Nanook and Nyla.
Nanook is an Eskimo, Nyla his
mate. They live their life before the
camera and Robert J. Flaherty. ex-
plorer. presents it as a film drama
called ''Nanook of the North"
Here is a simple drama of living
intensified by the utter simplicity OF
the life it depicts. 1t proves far
more effective than any bit of mere
acting.
Flaherty made the film when Ma
nook acted as his guide on a trip
through the upper east coast Of Hud-
son Bay and Ungava Peninsula, this
northernmost point Of Labrador.
There natives subsist entirely on an
animal diet. Nanook harpoons the
seal and walrus for the raw meat on
which his wife and kiddies subsist-
The entire family travels many miles
in search Of this game.
At night the family is sheltered in
an igloo--a house of snow with a
piece of ice for a window. 1t is
erected in one hour.
In this home N.Y. tends her
dimpled babe. Naked. It gurgles It's
delight in the Joy OF living. And the
temperature is below freezing even
in an igloo.
Doubtless you have read Of this
life in books. but the drama OF it all
escapes cold type. The movie gives
the story vitality. Here is a brave
father eking out a living in desola-
ton. facing the fiercest elements of
nature.
Here is a. mother with the hardihood
TO follow her mate through all his
adventures to bear and nurture chill
dren where life seems, after all, to be
a futile thing.
Certainly the Eskimo is the optimist

This Eskimo drama furnishes an in
teresting comparison with the "sheik"
pictures that are now proving so pop.
ular. The popularity OF the latter is
due in great measure to their roman
tic settings.
The romance is created mostly by
depicting a life that lies entirely with
out the common experience OF the
movie fan and much of that is created
in the tmaginations of writers and d.
rectors.
"Nanook of the North" a true docu-
ment, proves romance may bloom and
flourish In the frigidity OF the Arctic
as well as in the sandy welter OF the
equator.
You will stop to ponder on the per
plexities Of the general scheme of life
when you see "Nanook of the North

about after you have left the theater

stomach and digestive apparatus can
take care of properly. Hence, chill
dren should be given candy sparingly.
Women Of sedentary habits ars
usually the great candy eaters, and
they are Just the ones who should
leave sweets alone. Business women,
who use up a great deal Of energy
in their active daily life, might safely
indulge in moderately large amounts
of candy without any harm.
When we eat candy we are taking
in food at fearful rate. A choco-
late caramel or a square inch of fudge
contains almost 100 Galleries or food
units
Ten chocolate caramels during the
day are just the same as an extra
meal. A person who eats that amount
should skip a meal to give the stomach
a chance to catch up.
If you eat candy instead OF the
third meal you are taking your food
in too concentrated a form and it is
irritating to the stomach. Candy
Furthermore does not contain Vita
mines and minerals, which are essen
tial to good health.
If you must eat candy, the best time
to eat it is at the end Of meal when
the stomach contains other food, but
even then It should be followed by
fruit, so that the harmful effect on the
teeth may be decreased. To be healthy
it is well to take your candy or your
sugar in moderation.
