HOLLYWOOD, Calf, June 24.-The
first hot Summer day sends the colony
into sleeveless frocks, ankle socks and .
6ne lather Of disgust.
Until you stand on q sound stage
with the thermometer on the up-and-up
you haven't the faintest idea of 1t all.
A whitening breeze tans newcomers in

pave the Nevsky Prospect.
Production, like war, family fights,
and q few other Of hfes Ills, goes on
Just the same. So time clocks are
punched as usual. And II the makeup
keeps slipping, perspirtng attendants,
who don't have to look gorgeous as well
as do full days work, repair damages.
Tourists lined up on the boulevard to
watch the luncheon parade until two or
three keeled over. Inside the cafes
beieaguered walters served salads that
NAV have been crisp once.
Coy old ladies bloSSonned In chinonS

the abandon to coquetry which was the
gag In their youthful era

Woon and his little French wife and

It was gusto, while envious and aenemic

Cuired In Havana last season.
Because love people with q sense
Of humor and q gift of frankneSs, I'd
like to throw sidelight on this beau

something her manager didn't like. He
frothed at the mouth and made q lot
of useless gestures, but not Claire

She rang me UP and said, "Come on

there, expecting to find her In the same

"Hazel, your teacher says that unless

she was too tired to rule lines, and,
anyway, she couldn't find the ink. And
she forgot there were two sentences to

slip by, now and then saying vaguely:
Hazel, are you remembering to do

The report card came home with lib

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT
BY JOSEPH JAsTROW.

Do bodily efficiency and mental en-
cheney 60 together? II you stand high
in the one scale, are you more likely
or less likely to stand high In the otherp
We have the facts to give the answer,
and 1t Is definite answer, only 1t must
be stated with consideration Of the ex-
ceptions as well as Of the rule. The
ideal or not, stands: Mems sana in
compore sano-a sound mind in sound
body. Sane and sanitary, however
apart in meaning, are connected by
the common idea Of good health and
q sound constitution for both mind and
body.
= Today when we can, we get our facts
by measurement, and first as to the re-
lation Of brains and bodies in children.
Select the most gifted In mind, and
how will these children appear In body?
children with better brains have better
bodies; the two 60 together.
Before me is q photograph Of II boys,
bright as shown by mental tests. Only
one is below the average height for his
age, one just average, the other nine
slightly or considerably above height
OF nine 11-year-old girls, equally bright,
only the shortest Is Of average height,
with the other eight above 1t. What
Is true Of height Is also true Of weight,
OF strength, Of the size of the head, OF
general physical development. Though
the advantage varies and Is often slight,
the general result holds that those fav-
ored In brains are favored IN body.
But to conclude that the way to Sc
lect the able boys or able girls Is to take
those with the best physique would be
to 60 wrong In many ways. You'll find
any number Of boys and girls with bet
ter bodies than brains, and as many
with better brains than bodies. There
are so many factors that go into the
making Of sound brains and as many
that. determine sound bodies, that it is
only In large enough group that the
relations appear, and only very clearly
in the contrasts between the extremes.
When the cartoonist pictures the
young student-genius with big, be-

spectacled head, slight neck and weak
body, he Is drawing on his imagination,
not on the facts. OF course that type
exists, but he Is more the exception
than the rule. Nor Is 1t wholly because
he Is the exception that he attracts at
tenion, and becomes fxed as the type
Of the brainy boy.
There is another side to 1t, derived
from another chapter in psychology.
That sets forth that we seek COM
penSation for inferiority. The boy who
faction In showing that he has q good
mind. Just as those who are well built
go in for athletics and those with good
minds take to studies, and as we all
like to do what we do well, so also in
addition to the development of our
strong points may we thereby seek
compensation for our weak ones.
A marked bodily inferiority may set
the compensation toward occupations
In which bodily handicap doesn't mat
ter. A man with q good physique may
become an orator who without that
might have chosen to be writer.
Recently we have strong evidence at
the other end OF the course of life
The National Academy of Sciences is
limited to $50 distinguished men. They
are selected group Of high-class brain
workers. One hundred Of them have
been measured. The results show, with
few exceptions, that In physique,
strength, health and longevity, they
fall In the superior, group; they are
superior specimens Of bodily efficiency.
Their head measurements show definite
superiority. Such intensive mental work
does not tend to decrease the span of
life. These gifted mature and older
men likewise have better brains in bet
ter bodies. So it's equally desirable to
revise the popular notion Of the appear
ance Of the "highhrow." AL OF which

MEDICAL authorities declare iodine
ANAto be vitality necessary to the human
system. Without sufficient iodine thyroid
enlargement or goitre develops. Some
cities now add iodine to their water
supply, or specify iodized table salt. Eat
ing certain ocean foods, however, is the
natural way of acquiring the essential
iodine.
PINK Salmon is noted for its liberal
iodine content. West Coast Indians have
always depended largely on salmon for
their principal food itenn-and they have
never been known to suffer from goitre.
Goitre is prevalent chiefly in mountain
Gus country and inland communities,
where the soil is leached free from
iodine, or where melting snow is the
source of water supply.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE Do

The charm Of the town and the

simplicity. You are impressed by the
sincerity Of their manner of living
and their joyously naive outlook upon
LIFE
The Passion Play Is o great COM
munity enterprise. It serves to give
them q sense of unity and solidarity
that you rarely find except where peo-
pie are drawn together by q common
project, Practically every citizen OF
the town, man, woman and child, has
a part In the play. There Is mob
scene that must tax the population Of
the whole village.
The world goes to Oberammergau not
merely to see historic Passion Play.
It goes to see q type Of life that Is well
worth seeing. The quiet rustic charm
Of the village and the simple honest
faith Of the people are worth going
many miles to see. The play itself Is
well done and intrinsically worth
while, but its power and reputation rest
on the tradition Of the town and the
people.
