"You may get up now" Annie
turned and called to Dorothy May.
The little girls istlessly arose
from the bench and wandered off
toward group Of children.
"She's a queer child, though"
continued Annie. "She hasn't an
imagination like her brother and
she doesn't know what to do with
herself half the time. She's always
bothering the other children"
The conversation was interrupted
at this point by a child's scream.
Annie got up from her seat. dor

and sit on our bench"
"In trouble again." commented
Annie to her companion.
In the park sitting near the two
nurse girls was an old gentleman
who had read three pages of his
book without having taken in a
sentence of what he had read. The
cries of the children and the nurse
girls conversation had occupied
his attention. He looked over at
the little girl on the bench. "Pret-
ty, bright looking child" he thot.

someone to train her instead Of
just disciplining her. She minds
that nurse all right, but I'll war

his book but as he heard Annie's
voice tell Dorothy May to get up
his thoughts wandered to the lit

"Has no imagination" he repeat

as her brothers, at any rate" The
old gentleman's thoughts wander

here in which she is interested;
that is the trouble. All those child

girl is perhaps not quite like the
average child Of her age. Someone
who loves her should study her
and guide her energies in some
positive direction. There's some
thing she would be interested in.

lively young firm of architects,
have been chosen to design John
D. Rockefeller, jr..'s colossal mid.
town building project.
Official announcement of tn e
choice was made yesterday by John
R. Todd. of the Todd, Robertson
and Todd Engineering Corporation.
The young architects will have
as consultants three noted archi-
tects, Benjamin w. Morris. Harvey
W. Corbett and Raymond NJ. Hood.
Romance Revealed
Behind the lines Of the formal
statement lies a romance of the
world of art and business, as 1t is
a rarity for such young men to
be selected for such a colossal en-
terprise.
Rockefeller. jr.. intends to de-
velop three city blocks, between
Fifth and Sixth Aves. and Forty
eighth and Fifty.first Sts., on the
grand scale. The investment in
real estate alone represents an out
Jay of more than 200,000,000. The
towering structures destined to
occupy the site will mean an ex-
penditure Of many more millions.
L. Andrew Reinhard, senior mem
ber of the architectural firm, is only
80. His partner, Henry Hofmeister,
is 38. Thus overnight, so to speak.
they scale the highest pinnacle OF
professional fame, for rarely has so
magnificent a project been under.
taken in this country.
Their Abilities Win
There was no advance competi.
ton. The young men were merely
chosen upon information OF their
abilities that had impressed Rookie
feller and his associates.
Whether or not the proposed new
Metropolitan Opera House will form
the central jewel Of the Rookie
feller "citv within a city" remains
uncertain. While Rockefeller Is de-
clared to have shown a disposi.
tion to cooperate with the Opera
Realty Company, the final agree.

BY means of glandular control
and electrical nutrition, he said,
the time will come when he will
be able to change a member of
the yellow race into "a Caucasian,
or a Negro into an Indian.

Race, he insisted, Is merely the
result of glandular development

able to make this transformation
suddenly. as if he were a magician

generations 70 achieve it-but, he
says. it can be done.
For Is years he has been making

Through an interpreter, he said:

course, is human development. Grim
;nal instincts can perhaps be eradi-
Gated"
DR.. Noguchi explained that he
brings about transformation through
glandular treatment and the sun
rays.
The scientist himself is a unique
speciment of the diminutive Japanese
race. He is gray-haired and almost
six feet tall.
The Japanese government, DR..
