liner Of the loud speaker program
this evening in the person OF Hazel
Arth, contraito. who sings Joint re.
cital with William Cross, baritone.
from WRC, at o'clock. The in.
spired publicity director Of WRc
must have the same idea regarding
Miss Arth we have that anything
she sings is worth hearing, because
he didn't give us The slightest clue
to her program. Miss Arth Is one
Of those rare artists whose interpre-
| tations Of the great masters make
her least important song thing
worth listening for. william Cross,
her program mate, Is a baritone Of
excellent voice and musical under
standing and should give q good ac-
count of himself.
Another interesting event at
WRC this evening will be the debut
OF Oscar Levine. 14-year-oId VIC
linist. We are very frank to state
that long years of experience have
taught us to shy away from infant
prOdigies particularly in music.
| We have the word of Jose de
Huarte. himself an artist with the
violin OF no mean skill, that young
Levine is a budding genius and
we sincerely hope he Is. He will
play q rather ambitious program

The former governor, himself

However pleasant the day might

PEEV|SH? BLAME
NERVES, WEATHER
Both Have Important Effect on
Human System

Fort Worth, Texas, July 23. Up
When things go awry, blame it on
the weather, says d. S. Lands,
poet, philosopher and for 25 years
weather observer here for the Unit
ed States Weather Bureau.
Temperature and humidity affect
the human nervous system, and
fluctuations. creating nervous ac-
tivity, are reflected in the actions
of people over a large area, he be-
lieves.
A bright day cheers. raising the
spirits of the people, making every
one more congenial and reducing
likelihood of friction.
A cloudy day. on the other hand.
while a sedative for people of a
phlegmatic type. is an irritant to
persons of a more vital nature and
causes unrest and brttleness of
temper, according to Lands. He
says that police records show that
crime, especially suicide, increases
on gloomy days.
Periods of drunkenness. brawls,
assaults, murders, arson and the
like will lie found segregated un-
der abnormal barometric pressures,
which in turn are the offspring of
temperature and absolute humidity,
Lands believes.
Although hot weather generally
causes croSSness and irritation
where humidity is great. there are
sections In the Southwest where
the mercury reaches 100 degrees.
and the dry heat becomes actually
exhilarating, in Lands opinion.
"A mean temperature of 70 de-
grees is the best for normal living
conditions with an average amount
of moisture" Lands said. "Fluc-
tuations from this causes nervous
activity.
ITS not always intuition that
causes us to do the things we do.
Often its the weather working on
our neutral make up"
