LISTEN, W0RLD H'';ss . t!s s .:.,ts Boy
By ELSIE ROBINSON

aristocratic man doesn't ritz the ele-
vator boy. The intelligent man is al
ways looking for new contacts and
more information. He knows that the
elevator boy has certain wisdom and
opportunities which he lacks and he's
eager to discover that other viewpoint.
The really intelligent man is SURE
OF HIMSELF. He doesn't have to
worry about himself-or keep himself
on parade. he can forget himself.
he doesn't have 10 assert his own
superiority by emphasizing the other

It's the lad with the synthetic intel

he carries kick or not, that gives the
dog-eye to the man who opens the

Yes or No?

Do Scientists know how old the
earth is?
No. Estimates Of the age of the
earth are only approximate and are
subject to change with further infor-
nation. for example, a peat bog In
Germany was estimated to be at least
$4,000 years old, judging by the rate
of peat formation. until coins with the
stamp of Claudius Caesar were found
near the bottom.

! judgments. Both functions seem TO
be needed and appreciated.
The question is sometimes asked
whether the World Council is in
tended TO be a substitute for the
League of Nations. No more than
the Supreme Court of the Unitec
States is intended to be a substi-
tute for Congress Neither does the
fact that the league pays the sal
aries Of the judges make the court
a servant of the league more than
the fact that Congress appropriates
the money for the salaries Of the
Judges of the Supreme Court gives
Congress control over it s decis-

Secretary Hughes says, ''The
court is an independent judicial
body with appropriate judicial fune-
tions and abundant safeguards for
their proper discharge. He also
saws, "It is not saying too much
to say that there will be no world
court if this acourt cannot be made
one. and whether or not it is to be

The formal title of "The World

The World Court is distinguished
from the Hague Tribunal or Per

court of the world with a fixed
personnel, while the Hague Tri-
bunal is merely list of 132 names
from which an arbitration board
of not over five members may be
specially chosen to hear and de-
termine a controversy.
To choose IL judges from 60 ma
tions and satisfy them all has pre-
sented many complications. This
plan Of election has been chosen.
The council and assembly of the
League of Nations sit as electoral
bodies every nine years. The next
election will be in 1880.
Nominations are made by the ma
tional groups in the Hague Tribun-
al. At the first election in 1921,
IS nominations were considered.
The council and assembly ballot
independently first. They compare
their states and only the names that
are ON both lists are declared elect

nations may he represented has a
check upon the council in which
the great powers predominant, and
in turn the council has check upon
the more representative assembly.

Usually when one thinks of a
Russian story by native Russian
author, one thinks of gloom with
compound interest. Now 1.-The
Eagle was adapted from a story
by Alexander Pushkin the Shake
spcare of Russia but there ism t
any depression in it.
On the contrary, there is consld-
cradle hilarity, mirth and other such
iovial qualities. Hans Braly. who
has adapted most of the Lubftsch
comedies, wrote the scenario of
THE Eagle and his fine, hand
may be detected in the light treat
ment. The picture may be describ-
ed as n romantic comedy drama.
Valentino $ role is therefore quite
diffrent from any which he has pre-
viously essayed. 1t also gives him
an opportunity for great versatility,
inasmuch as he will appear in three
different guises. He is seen first as
a dashing Cossack officer, later at
a Tartar bandit, and for a while
ae masquerades as French tutor.
