PERFECT MAN

To be Accomplished Through
Gland Regulation, Scien-
tist Says

Philadelphia, Nov. 21.-(By the A..
P.4-The production of the perfect
man by regulation Of glands is pre-
dicted by DR.. Rodney Fiske Of New
York.
Speaking yesterday at the conven-
ton of the Eastern Homeopathic
Medical Association he says that re-
cent discoveries concerning the func-
tions of glands of the human body
had paved the way for production OF

ure Of the glands to function was the
cause of old age.
"By properly regulating mans
glands" said DR.. Fiske, 1--WE will not
only be able to control his mental
characteristics but also his physical
appearance. It will be within our
power to say whether he shall be
tall or short; fat or thin; whether
his voice shall be tenor or bass.
"By increasing the action Of slug
gish glands and slowing down the
nver-active glands, remarkable re-
suits have been accomplished and we
are. on the verge of even greater
achievements which will make poss-
ible the production of the perfect
man."

COMMUNISTS
CLAIM MEMBER
OF N. D. HOUSE
Workers Party Organ Says
That Williams County Man
Is Party Representative
ITO SHOW UP SYSTEM"
Coming to Legislature to
Espouse Cause of Com
munism, Is Assertion

While legislators elected in North
Dakota on November 4 have thus
far been generally classed as "Inde-
pendents" or "Nonpartisans," al
though they were elected on Repub-
lican, Democratic or independent
tickets, there will. be one avOwed
Communist in the legislature, it is
asserted by "The Daily Worker"
published in Chicago, Illinois.
The newspaper, which espouses
the cause of the "Workers Party
and opposed Senator LaFollette in
the election, gives much prominence
to the progress it claims the Com
munists have made in North Dakota.
The article, a Especial" from Will
liston, North Dakota, follows:
Comrade 6. A. Miller, secretary of
the Workers Party branch here was
elected to the state legislature, de-
feating q sticker candidate put up
against him by the Nonpartisan
league politicians of Williams coun-
ty.
"Comrade Andrew Omholt, who
was candidate for sheriff Of Will
liams county, received Il good vote
but not enough to elect him.
Considering the fact that both
candidates openly advertised them
selves. as Communists, the results
are remarkable. A specially bitter
fight was put up against Comrade
Omholt, the voters being warned by
the yellow press that the real issue
Of the campaign was law enforce
ment versus Communism. p
"Comradc Miller is the first men,
ber of the party in North Dakota to
be elected to the state legislature.
He will go to Bismarck for the pur-
pose of showing that the political
machinery of the capitalist system
cannot do anything for the farmers
and the workers, that it is necessary
for them to build up a system OF
their own and that they must rally
around the Workers Party, the only
organization in the United States
that can solve their problems.
"A strong Workers Party branch
is now being organized at Williston
the comrades here desiring to use it
as base for party activities in
northwestern North Dakota. At
Bonetraill in Williams county Il
branch Of ten members has already
been organized and these new re-
cruits to the party are ready and
willing to educate themselves for
Communist work in their respective
ighborhoods.
"Comradc Andrew Omholt will look
after the party activities in this ter
ritory."

Had Many Warm Friends
There and Had Won Praise
as Hostess During Her
Residence in Washington
Will BE Missed BY Soldiers
at Walter Reed Hospital

Washington, Nov. p. The death
of Mrs. Harding aroused deep
sense Of personal sorrow in tIie l.sl-
tional capital.
The highest dignitarics OF The gov
ernment, headed by rrcsilrnt oUl-
idge, joined in expressions oi grief
and regret; but quite anothe: ui-
butte of affection found voice amohg
those she had befrendel in the
humble walks of life, and .hos, who
had looked with admiration and with
pity on the tragic of her brief ten
ure aa mistress Of the White House.
Mrs. Harding had many warm
friends in Washington long before
her husband became President As
wife of Senator she won a rcputa-
ton as gracious hostess and "A
whole hearted and Democratic par
ticipant in many public charities
These qualities she carried with her
into the White House. Among those
who mourned most deeply at her
death are the wounded soldiers at
Walter Reed Hospital, where she
passed many hours and left many
tokens of sympathy with encourage
ment
Interested In Others
The solicitudc she showed on
many occasions for the interest and
happiness of others were returned
to her many fold when a serious i'll
ness cast the first cloud over her
executive life in the executive man
sion in the summer OF 1922. All of
Washington poured out its sympathy
and its prayers while she laid be-
tween life and death and then slow
ly began to mend. The city's most
vivid memories cluster about the
funeral Of her husband al whose
side she was watching when he pass
ed from life in San Francisco. In
all that vast picture of grief for the
dead President, the figure that will
live longest in the recollection Of
the capital is that OF the widow
who bowed by her sorrow. went
courageously through the long or
deal of mourning.
After the funeral of the President
Mrs. Harding lived in virtual retire
ment. She maintained a hotel suite
here. near the White House, but di-
vided her time between Washington
and Marion and took only small
part in the social activities in the
capital. She aged perceptibly, and
friends who SuW her during the last
few weeks here, realized that she
was losing ground in her long fight
against spiritual and physical dis
abilities.
At President Coolidge's direction
the flag at the White House will fly
at half mast until the funeral ser
vices Monday.
