Test for Hearing

The usual test for determining the
question of how well a person can hear
is the ordinary speaking voice test, Civ
en- at a distance of 20 feet; and the
whispering voice test given at dis
lance of 10 feet. These tests are Civ

the ability of the person to repeat
words which he has given at 20 feet
and whispered at 10 feet The tests
mentioned are merely average tests,
and ear specialists employ more &C.

of society. If he was not the inventor
of the game he did. however, deposit

Berserker Rage

In Morse mythology Berserk was the
grandson of the eight-handed1 Stark
hadder. He always went into battle
without armor and was famed for
the reckless fury with which he
fought. Among those slain by him
was King Swafurlam, by whose daugh-
ter he had twelve sons equal to him
self in bravery. These sons of Ber-
serk were called berserkers, a term
which thus became synonymous with
fury and reckless courage.-Pathfind

Since his arrival in Bucharest Fri

thrust his eight-year-old son from the

head and all but brought a reconcilia-

Has Taste for Work.
Carol, who throughout his five years

family relationships and of government.
Yesterday he became tired. 1t was said
that his visit to PeleSch Castle, which
IS in Sinaia, was dependent upon his
condition today
A high official issued denial of re-
ports that Nine. LupeScu was returning
to Bucharest. A Bern dispatch to the
London Daily Mail Saturday said she
would enter Rumania incognito yester-
day from Bagden, near Vienna, in COM
pliance with a promise of Carols to
send for her.
Divorce Issue Unsettled.
There was still some question TODAY
OF the status of the divorce of Carol
and Helen. The Rumanian Orthodox
Church issued a statement that 1t did
not recognize the divorce, but this ap-
parently did not effect legality of the
action under Rumanian law. It was
said that full legal annulment could
come only through the courts which
granted the divorce to Helen two years

John Thomas Taylor, vice president
OF the national legislative committee of
the American Legion, urged the pas
sage OF the World War veterans pension
bin at this session of Congress in a let
ter sent to all members Of the Senate
yesterday.
Taylor said the measure, as passed bv
the House, would cost $lSl .OOO. 600 a
year, but that the Senate finance COM
m1ttee had reduced this figure to STA =
600 900 and had included an amendment
which would save an additional S25. OOO.-
600. In its present form, he said. the
Pill would cost only $49, 100000. The
bill Is on the preferred list Of the SEN
ate calendar.
The measure" he said, will COM
penSate about 100000 of the most dis
tressing and deserving cases, save an
untold number of lives and brighten

distress"
He denied the proposed legislation
would result in increased taxes.

LONDON'S NIGHT
CLUBS REFINED
PLACE TO PLAY
Cabaret Incidental to Food,
Wines and Dancing;
Deserving PiCCadiIIy.
By United Press

By United Press
LONDON, Nov. 2S.-Night club
life is moving from the Piccadilly
circus area in the fashionable west
end of London to the suburbs.
There are two reasons.
Cheaper rents.
The Illicit clubs were closed by
police and those remaining were so
drab that the younger set and the
few >doddering papas and mamas
shifted their patronage to the live
lier clubs in the suburbs.
Night life in London is as staid
and conservative as the many ira
ditions of England.
One finds not the nude dancers
of the Paris cafes nor the Scantily
clad dancers of New York or Chi
Cages sucker shops, in the clubs
here.
The main attraction at one of
the clubs for weeks has been a
famous jazz band from the states.
The cabaret is incidental to the
food, wines and dancing.
Prices are approximately one
third of those in the large Ameri-
can city and compare favorably with
those on the continent.
True, the owner does not have to
add the fine he'll have to pay if
federal men drop in, to each bottle
of ginger ale sold and despite the
heavy tax on spirits one can become
very mellow at a tenth the cost OF
a bleary night in the states.
There is an atmosphere of sane
conviviality where the guests, clad
in evening clothes, are assembled
Absent is the counterpart of the
big butter-and-egg man from the
west, who gulps one drink Of alleged
whisky after another in an Ameri-
can night club; the sleek, we'll
dressed gunman and his "moll' and
the alert blackmailer out seeking
bank roll entertaining blonde.
Although a small fee is charged
the membership in club, not
every one is accepted. The rules in
most clubs give a member the priv
lege of ordering the manager to
force an offensive visitor-guest to
leave the room.
