her capricious heart demands.
Take, for instance, Joan Lowell, this very
much discussed and debated young woman who
wrote the Cradle of the Deep" who spent
much of her early life at sea and was brought
up among sailors and South Sea Islanders in
overalls that she might not become conscious
of her beauty and femininity.
What was the first thing she wanted when
she took up life on shore?
According to her own words, she wanted to
acquire femininity. without knowing what it
was, or how to get it, she knew it was what
she needed to fit her for life.
1.-THE most baffiing and insurmountable quail

thing called femininity.' I had none of it

undeveloped, but could feel it in every woman
that met-every one that admired. And I
was completely beaten by it.

had no ability to take care of themselves, and
who had always worn silk until they were silky
themselves. I saw them lead men on, work
them for presents and attentions, and have
nothing to go on but a smile and femininity.'
ST saw these women admired, adored and wor-
shipped, not because they gave favors, but be-
cause they had the most delightful little tricks
and because they could wear appealing and
sometimes impudent little frocks. They were
women, just as I was, but they knew how to
advertise. They knew what 1t all about
and didn't. They were feminine and I was
not.

she found that men did not like her. or at least
that they did not notice her if there were girls

"I didn't realize then that the only girls who
got away with brutal frankness with men, and
the ones who were seemingly the least inn
pressed by their masculinity, were really the
ones who were the most feminine at heart
but men know this instinctively.

B IC REINDEER DRIVE PL AN NED

Plane Leaves S Nome to Scout Out Route to Be
 Taken with Herd

NOME, Alaska, Oct. 2-Pilot Frank Dorbrant, of the Alaska Air ways, Incorporated: Alfred J. To- men, of the Lomen Reindeer Com pany, and A w Porsill, representa- txe of the Canadian government, took off yesterday morning to pre- pare for history the most important reindeer drive.
 The plane will go to Kotzebuo Sound. along the coast of Arctic Alaska to Kittigazuit Peninsula east side of the Mackenzie Delta on the Arctic coast and Northwest Territories of Canada.
 The plane will fly to the head of the Coluville River, covering the distance in eight hours that will take a moving herd nearly one year, picking out camping and feeding grounds.
 The Canadian Government has contracted with the Lomen Com pany for delivery to the Canadian Minister of the Interior 5000 select reindeer.
 The caravan will be fully equip ped with 40 sleds, especially manu- factured, and 50 trained sled rein deer to transport provisions and clothing for the personnel. The men will be aided by trained reindeer and sheep dogs of Alaska and Idaho to drive the reindeer across the American Arctic to the Northwest ern Canadian territories. Scouting planes will be used to keep in touch with the expedition on the 300-mile drive.

its operation, those of them that have

Senator Borah ridiculed the theory of
economic boycott as means Of enforc-
ing peace, declaring that it could only
be employed against small nation and
that it would amount to declaration of
war
1.-The economic boycott for these great
powers" he said, which are now or
ganizing armies and building navies
upon scale such as the world has
never before known, is false pretense,
a fraud, a lie. And so far as I am con-
cerned, the United States will have
nothing to do with it.
THE United States has agreed to re-
ject war and has agreed to seek settle
ment of her controversies through
peaceful means only but If in
spite of all this there is ever to be an
appeal to force. then the United States

X-Ray Measured
In Small Doses
By a Box Meter
Science Puts Powerful
Rays in Class of More
Ordinary Remedies. .
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 8.-The newest
thing in x-rays. box meter whereby
they can be measured in small doses for
medical use, was demonstrated at a
meeting of the New York Electrical So
ciety last night.
This advance puts the powerful rays
in the class of the more ordinary RENE
dies, which can be parceled out IN
amounts and potencies of known cura-
tive values. 1t was demonstrated by DR..
F. K Richtmyer. professor OF physics
at Cornell University.
= He placed pair of metal plates a
short distance apart, with a strong cleo
trical charge in one plate. Then he pro-
iected a beam of X-rayS between the
plates, and demonstrated that this IN
visible beam carried electric current
from one plate to the other, as readily
as if it were solid wire.
This principle makes the new X-ray
meter, an instrument named an ionlza-
ton box. It's value is not only in re-
ducing risks of applying too much *
rays. but also in opening a field for ap-
plying small quantities to delicate cases.
Actual motion pictures of the be-
havior of human stomach digesting a
meal was another of Prof. Richtmyer'S
demonstrations This was accomplished
with q combination of X-ray and mo-
ton picture apparatus. The story that
the X-ray tells the physicist about pre-
ciouS stones was explained. This is in
the arrangement of atoms in the gems
Though the atoms are invisible, their
patterns are detected by studying the
light of X-rays passing through them,
or reflected from their surfaces.

ORAH CALLSPACT
HOPE OF MASSES
lStrument of Freedom for
Small Nations, He Says
in Address,.

While appealing for peace, Senator
Corah of Idaho, chairman of the Sen
e foreign relations committee, last
,lght said the small nations are ten
ants at will on this earth" without the
rejection of the principle of the Kel-
iogg peace pact, and that without its
operation those Of them that "have
great natural wealth will sink into ter
"itories" to be preyed upon by rapacious
.cxploiters which will make the old pro-
consular days of Rome seem uninter-
iesting and tame.
Senator Borah was addressing the
Foreign Press Association Of Washing
ton. gathered at a dinner. He was the
principal speaker The meeting was
at the National Press Club.
The chairman of the foreign relations
committee declared that the Kellogg
pact will be successful ito the extent
that the people as distinguished from
the few can be permitted to have a
voice in peace or war"
THE people do not believe in war,
but their leaders sometimes do" said
the chairman Of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee"
Represents Hope of Masses.
"The peace pact represents the as
!pirations and the hopes of the masses.
!" If it does not prove successful it
will be because Of the betrayal of those
who have been intrusted with author
ity"
Il do not know, and no man can
know, whether we have reached the
time in which reason and justice may
in international affairs be substituted
for brute force or whether we must go
on with the old system. It depends, in
my opinion, to what extent in the
future few men who do no fighting
and make no sacrifices when the war
comes can manipulate and control
matters in the direction of war as
against the wishes and the prayers of
those upon whom the burdens and the
Sacrifices fall"
Senator Borah voiced particular in
terest in. the benefits deriving to small
nations Under the Kellogg treaty. Under
its principles alone, he said, can they
hope to live in freedom and indie
pendence.
"a world dominated by force" he
declared, will be dominated by the
great nations which can maintain great
sarmies and great navies. The small
nations will enjoy just such freedom
Lust such security as great nations may
sgraciously vouchSafe to them.
What chance, what right, what
independence, what security have Haiti
.or Nicaragua, or any other of these
small nations as against the United
Estates, or Korea as against Japan, or
albania as against italy, or Egypt
against Great Britain, and so on, in
iworld governed by force?"
Ii The Senator then said the small ma
