WASHINGTON, June 7.-Presi-

He already has notified William M.

This information comes from cir

Three times the big red and

There was nothing to do but take
the Friendship back to its moorings

to increase in velocity.
With each hour the head start OF
the Friendships crew was dimin-

Long Wait for Wind
This was the Friendships third
setback. First there had been a
leaky gasoline tank and then the
wind was too high for start.
AS it was, the plane waited twen-
ty-four hours for the wind to de-
crease and then for weather condi-
tions to improve, although at first
they had been ideal.
The Friendships failure to rise
today was attributable entirely to
the light wind and the planes

SECRETS OF
HEALTH

You may have noticed that
with the coming OF late autumn.
there is an increasing tendency to
colds, influenzas, whooping coughs,
scarlet fevers, bronchitis and pneu-
monia.
One chief explanation of that
fact is that the germs that cause
these diseases thrive in the low
temperature Of that season.
In fact the whole annual cycle
of death.rates from all diseases
follows the temperature curve, be-
cause these particular diseases
dominate it to such an extent.
About a month after the tenn
perature falls the general death
rate rises.
That is because, in addition to
favoring respiratory diseases, cold
tends to bring on hemorrhages In
people suffering from phthisis or
hardened arteries. Smallpox.
rabies and mumps are trans
mitted in totally different ways
and are very different diseases,
yet they all show this inverse re-
lationship to the temperature.
This is largely because, with the
coming Of cool weather, people
tend to huddle together in mar.
row and unventilated quarters.
There is a direct relationship
between infections Of the bowel
and temperature. This is shown
by the fact that the death rate
from diarrhoea goes up with the
temperature. Other diseases that
show q summer maximum are
those conveyed by flying insects.
In winter diseases, such as ty-
phus, due to lice and other para
sites of that sort, tend to increase
as the weather gets colder and
people huddle together and avoid
the tap.
1t Is to be noted, however, that
there is that lag of month be-
tween the change OF temperature
and the change in the prevalence
OF disease. Seasonal variations OF
disease depend not so much upon
the mere arrival Of a certain
critical temperature as upon the
m a infano nNa Anf thof kaV,n narok,
for certain length Of time.
Most autumnal infections show
a curve OF increase over the year,
with another curve of increase
in the spring. It is an interest.
ing thing, too, that chronic car
riers of diphtheria and scArlet
fever-people who carry the
germs of these diseases without
having the disease itself--seem
: to get more active and dangerous
in these months. although they
must be carrying the germs all
the year round.
Partial explanations OF the ef-
feet OF season on some Of the
infections may be put forward.
Diseases carried by flies will
obviously prevail when the
weather is suitable for the flies
to live active lives. Diseases are
conveyed from one person to an
other by being sprayed cut with
the little drops of saliva that
shoot out in talking, coughing
and breathing. They are. there.

merely used the Scotch tunes as a starting
point, and had altered them to suit his
musical purposes as, in "Schon Ellen" he
hadq taken liberties with the sacred
"Campbells." Bruch simply mixed his
Scotch with the local Croton Of Berlin: a
fact which the ramping Highlanders would
have realized If they had read more care
fully the title of the work They should
not have hardened their hearts against
Bruch, any way; for was he not inspired to
the composition of this music by reading
the works of Sir Walter Scott? So. at
least. it is said.
Whether or not the Fantasia" should
have been referred to as a concerto is a
point which may be left, as DR.. Johnson
preferred to leave the matter Of personal
Immortality, sin obscurity." Certainly
Bruch in his title did not call 1t that.
