BEARS SUPPORTED
 ON CURB MARKET
Their Activity Proves Effective Check on Yesterdays Recovery

New York, Sept. A tP) - The beafs found the sentiment in the curb market in their favor today, and resumed short selling opera tions. Their activity proved an ef- fective check to the continuance of the recovery that made some head way in the final hour of yesterday s session.
 The market opened irregular. Buy ing in some key stocks attached little support and dullness on the rise brought bear drive. By after noon the downward trend was fully evident in all sections of the list. Declines were narrow in most of the groups but utilities and industrials harbored some rather weak spots and here some recessions of a point or more developed.
 Electric Bond S Share, United Light & Power A, American and Foreign Power, Brazilian Traction, Missouri Kansas Pipe Line, Ameri- can Gas and Electric bore the brunt of the attack on the utility group, and around midday declines ranged from 1 to 2 points. Duke Power was well bought, gaining several points and Consolidated Gas of Baltimore reappeared in the trading to register an advance.
 The selling movement brought out moderate volume of offerings in the petroleum group. Standard Oil of Ohio reached a new years low on the days movement. Cosden ral- lied about point from the years bottom and then showed sagging tendencies. Cities Service. Vacuum, were under some pressure and moved lower.
 Great Atlantic & Pacific, Glen AL den Coal, and Deere lost from one to several points on the decline. Technicolor established another new low for the year as it sagged below IS.
 Investment and Holding Company issues appeared infrequently on the tape.
 Call money renewed at 234 per cent on the curb.

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DIR. Louis E. Risch-

by LIZ. LOUIS T.. btSCH-
We all know that the adoles-
cent years are often days of
trials and tribulations. Emo
tional ups and downs are the
rule. Marked physical changes
are taking place in the develop
ment Of the boy and girl into
manhood and womanhood.
Glands also begin to function
that lay dormant before. The
whole outlook on life is differ
ent.
1t is not astonishing, there
fore. that these years of puberty
should also constitute a favor
able soil for the sprouting of
definite mental arrangements.
Such, indeed, is the fact.
An insanity of youth, known
as dementia praecox, can begin
about this time.
It is slow in its development:
it's first symptoms are scarcely
recognizable.
But after a year or two or
three-the rapidity of develop
ment varying in different cases
parents come face to face
with the conviction that their
son or daughter is eccentric and
markedly so.
1t must not be thought, how
ever, that every case of eccen.
tricity in speech or behavior be.
tween the years, let us say 13
to 18, must necessarily spell
mental trouble.
Scores and scores of young
people are flighty, headStrong,
moody, contradictory - even
tending to immoral behavior
and perhaps somewhat delin-
quent-without there being the
slightest danger that dementia
praecox is in the making.
We must expect youth, espe-
cially modern youth, to be de-
cidedly different from q genera
ton ago in what it says, in how
it acts and in what it thinks.
Parents should not become
unduly alarmed when trey find
their sons and daughters prob
lens difficult to understand.
Nevertheless, certain indica-
tionS should be viewed with
suspicion and if present and
continuing should be checked
up through consultation with a
pSychiatriSt-a mental special
iSt-to see whether or not these
peculiarities are actually pathO-
logical.

is believed to be a metallic
core. which is under enormous
pressure. &.
But there are some who are
in revolt against this prevail
ing view. Thus j. Leslie Mitch
ell, in "Hanno," says:
This theory of the earth's
interior appears to me even
more farcical than that of the
molten fluidists. It is even
more archaic in its concept; it
is pref -Copernican. 1t restores
to the earth it's ancient dignity
as to the center Of the universe.
Both schools appear to conceive
Of gravitation as a mysterious
force, alien and apart, in the
earth's bowels force drawing
down upon itself in ever-in-
creaSing pressure all material
substance attractable.
But gravitation presupposeS
repulsion as well as attraction.
The earthmass. it is reason
able to assume, is held together,
not crushed together, by gravi-
tation. The masses hold by
attraction in a homogeneous
framework; there is as definite
an outward as downward pull:
below a certain depth pressure
must definitely decrease.
If this theory be true, then
the interior of the earth must
be largely hollow, a sort Of vast
empty cavern, having the tenn
perature Of outer space.
The interior of the earth may
be another Mammoth Cave,
after all-honeycombed with
tunnels, corridors and passages.
It doubtless contains many
great reservoirs filled with gas,
heat and molten metal or lava.
1t is probably the home of many
large bodies of water, great in
terror seas and oceans.

That was the voice of the
jungle-the restless, disorderly,
airnless, undisciplined, self-ex-
pressing jungle. But when
you've heard it all and seen il
all, what does a jungle really
amount to? Nothing. Just a
lot Of jabber and jump that
doesn't create anything.
Civilization only started when
creatures stopped jabbering and
jumping and began to sit still
and stick on a job-and all
progress has come from sitting
stiller and sticking longer. The
stickers, not the jumpers, build
the world. They are the boys
