Rumanian Woman Has
 Made Big Discovery

Paris. May S. Pl-Discovery that the suns rays apparently create or excite ra radioactivity in lead and other metals has just been announced by Henri Dcslandrcs, director of the Paris observatory.
 Tho discovery is credited to Mile, Maracineanu, a Rumanian.
 Mile. Maracincanu found that pieces of lead and other metals from tho roof Of the observatory had become radioa ctivc and regis tered their rays on photographic plates.
 Her discovery was an accident. She had placed a piece,of polonium on sheet of lead and found that the lead became radioactive. Ex- posing the polonium and lead to tho sun, she found the transmission of radioactivity was multiplied ten fold. From that point she proceed cd 10 work out her theory. which Professor Deslandres has presented to the Academy of Sciences.
 Mile. Maracineanu worked for five years with Madame Curie, of radium research fame. and has en- gagged in independent studies at the Mcudon observatory.

Cham in Women

 'Jn the second place, l consider charm per SC a sort of vcrniform appendix 10 femininity. Bike the appendix, charm is all right as long as It k quiescont. But the moment it becomes active, it must come o,S.
 "Of course natural charm, which, like radiunI. occasionally occurs, is great asset to anybody.

Vaccine as an

Doctor Tells About Small

BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of tho AmeTicAn Medical Association and Of Hygeis,

 1noculation against smallpox. the famous discovery of Edward Jenner. 1112, when Oliver Goldsmith wrote "She Stoops to Conquer" and yet by that time, so successful had been the application of his discovery. women were beginning to be beau- tiful again, because of the dlsap- pearance of the ravages of smallpox scars from their faces.
 Prevous 10 the time Of Edward Jenncr smallpox would devastate entire communities The rare per- son in the community was the one free from the scars of this disease.
 After the widespread application Of vaccination the rare person in the community came to be the one with the scars of smallpox.
 The eminent French physiologist. Richet, characterized the human being as homo stuItissimus or idi- ot man, because having Knowledge Of disease prevention he does not avail himself of such knowledge.
 Knowing what We do Of the methods of protection against smallpox, having as We do city and state laws in many states, neverthe- less there are still considera ble numbers Of persons who develop the disease because Of their unwilling ness 10 submit to vaccination. These people constitute menace not only 10 themselves and 10 their families, but to entire communities.
 Connecticut suffered early in 1928 from smallpox, which reached 14 cities and towns in that state and two in Massachusetts
 In the first six weeks Of 1928 130 cases were reported in Connecticut, most of which occurred in or near Middletoun.
 Under the circumstances that ex- isted previous to the time of Ed ward Jenner, at least one-half, if not more, Of the inha bitants of New Haven, to which the disease spread from Niddletown, would have been affected.
 However, of the 900 people in New Haven, more than 100000 were vaccinated in short period of time
 Only three cases occurred in New Haven and the cost to the city was only 5000. For nearly 20 years that city has required vaccination of al children entering schools. The value Of the requirement is demon strated by the protection afforded during the recent epidemic.

For some time Sally Sly the Cow bird had been hanging around the Old Orchard. More than once she had been sneaking about in the old Orchard, especially very early in ih" morning. Now, Sally Sly has no friends among her feathercd neigh bors. She has no friends for the simple reason that she hasn't the ro- Apect of any of them. We cannot make friends Of those we do not re- spect.

n Works in Oil Placed on
Display at National
Gallery of Art.
French Ambassador Is Pa
tron of Showing by
Dutch Artist.

.Twenty-seven oil paintings, showing
exterior and interior views of famous
French cathedrals, painted during the
last eight years by Pieter van Veen, dis
tinguished Dutch artist, were placed on
exhibition In the National Gallery of
Art Of the Smithsonian Institution yes
terday afternoon under patronage of the
French Ambassador, Paul Claudel
The French Ambassador, officials of
the museum and scores of Washington
art patrons attended the opening of the
exhibit, which is placed in the center
gallery.
The exhibit includes views of such ia
nous cathedrals as those of Rheims,
Arniens, Rouen, Chaftres and the
Churches of Moret and st. Ouen. Many
of the interior views are entirely origi
nal documents because the space with
in the particular cathedral is so lin
tied as to make impossible satisfactory
photography. In painting these old
masterpieces of Gothic architecture, Mr..
Van Veen labored for eight years out
doors drawing and painting with ma
whose lofty heights every mechanical
lens has failed in its perspective ca
pacity.
Although he maintains a studio in
New York, the artist was born in Hol-
land and studied at the Art Academy
in that country. He also studied in
France and Italy.
After the showing here. which will
continue until the end of the month,
Mr.. Van Veen plans to place his work
on exhibition in all of the large cities
Of this country. The purpose of the
showing. he said. is to demonstrate to
the people of this country the rare ar
cllitectural beauty of the French cathe-
drals and to familiarize them with their
design.
