THE MARRY.
GO-ROUND
BY Helen Rowland

Not To Be Taken Seriously
TO. a bachelor, spring suggests
l. new haberdashery, romance
and adventure; to a married
man, merely fly-Screens, moth
balls, lawn-mowers and clean
ing day.
Eve had as much choice in the
matter Of a husband as any
other woman. She merely &C
cepted what fate sent her, and
then convinced herself that he
was 1.-The only man in the world"
Somehow, when a man hears
that a woman has had a vivid,
colorful past, he is always in
spired with in irresistible desire
to brighten up her present.
Satan, himself, could probably
make almost any girl love him,
if he took the trouble to con-
vince her that it was Mrs. Sa-
tan'S lack of understanding"
that drove him to-Where he is.
The girl of today has had all
her rights" handed to her on a
silver platter. by the feminist of
yesterday. That is, all except
the right husband-and he is
just as hard to find as ever.
jealousy is a magnifying
glass; and a jealous woman can
always put two and two TO-
gether-and make "a.
The first thing to do is to dis
cover the exact geographical To-
cation of a mans vanity
whether it is in his physical
prowess, his mental superiority
or his sex-appeal. After that, all
that remains is to wind in the
reel and take him off the hook.
Apparently, the tenderest,
most impressionable thing on
earth is the heart of a brand
new Reno-graduate.
In the average mans opinion,
the command, Thou shalt not
steal" does not apply to an UNI
brella, a kiss, a wisecrack, the
hotel towels, or another mans
girl.

Senate Committee Hearings on

WITH his consistent the people of Washington
Senator Capper will hold hearings by the Senate District
Committee the nomination of General Crosby to be DIS

Politically Senator Capper is sturdy Republican and an

Presidents choice of General Crosby though personally

citizens of the District.

Justice selecting for Commissioner Army officer who has

There is no quarrel with General Crosby his abilities
or personal fitness for Commissioner The issue solely

Of disrespect to the President
That General Crosby has lived Washington six or eight

That Army officer automatically becomes civilian on
the day after his retirement from the Army is impossible

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
By Dr.. Louis z. Bisch-

DEOPLE often possess a lot
l. of knowledge but do not
know how to use it.
What is intelligence anyway?
One might say that intelli-
gence is the ability of an in.
dividual to adjust his thinking
to the ever-changing conditions
and problems of life.
The giSt of this definition is
adaptibility of what you have
to do what is needed
Intelligence is not ability to
learn.
It is not memory power.
1t is not the fund of infor-
nation stored away in the
mind.
These are, I know. the COM
mon conceptions of intelligence
but they are pSychologically in
correct.
Unless a person can use all
these possessions and abilities
and make them adaptable we
cannot consider him intelligent.
Indeed, a person may be in
telligent whose learning ability
is very limited, who has a poor
memory and whose general or
special knowledge is meagre.
That is why no amount Of
Schooling-not even a college
education will necessarily
make a person intelligent.
Such training undoubtedly
helps. but unless all this knowl-
edge lends itself readily for use
in any circumStances-in other
words, is adaptable-it will not
promote the intelligence of the
individual possessing it.
That also explains why people
with meager educations are
often exceedingly intelligent.
They may not know much,
but their command of what
they know is such that they
are able to turn into practical
usefulness.
1 might add that a person
with little knowledge but great
intelligence is a far more val
liable member of society than a
person with a large amount of
knowledge and but little intel
ligence.
Don't worry so much about
acquiring new knowledge.
Worry more about applying
successfully what you already
have.
Let your knowledge come out.
Make your thinking fluid.
Change it when need be.
Always make it more and
more adaptable.
So many people do not know
how, or do not try, to use
their minds. A little daily
practice makes a lot of diff
ference in the results.
An animal, such as a dog,
cannot be said to be intelligent
because it always reacts in the
same way to the same Stimu-
luS. Change the stimulus
that is the circumstances un-
der which you are observing
and testing him-and he does
not change in his reactions.
And manV peOple reSDOnd in
a similar stilted and Stero-
typed manner. Such persons
