Balloon Balks
On lO-Mile Rise
To Shakespeare
Gas insufficient to Raise
Condola Against Wind
at Augsburg, Germany.

BY the Associated Press.
AUGSBURG, Germany, September
I5.-The plan of Prof. Auguste Pic
caro- to ascend 10 miles into the strato-
sphere suffered setback today when
his balloon failed to rise from the
ground.
The amount of gas proved INSULT
cient to raise the heavy gondola. He
mad provided 1900 cubic meters of
hydrogen, which filled only one-sev-
enth of the balloons capacity, expect
ing that as the high attitudes would
be reached the gas would expand to
$4,000 cubic meters. A strong wind
which arose Immediately after the bag
was filled pressed it to the ground
and prevented it from ascending.
Prof Picard. member of the fac
ulty of the University of Brussels,
hoped to reach the highest altitude
ever gained by man and study cosmic
rays. which he believes will furnish
clues to great sources of energy. The
gondola is of aluminium and equipped
with all Sorts of scientific instruments,
Picard and his companion, Charles
Kipfer, had hardly entered the gon-
dola when the downward wind arose.
When all attempts to get the balloon
off the ground failed. Picard opened
the gondola's portfolio, pulled a line
which permitted the gass to escape
and, emerging with Kipfer said the at
tempt would be repeated later.

Everyday Psychology
Personality.
BIZ DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

The one big thing in all psychology
at least in the modern sense of the
term, is personality.
Most people want to know how to gel
personality. Somehow they get the
notion that you can pick out the kind
vo,, want and cultivate it pretty much
as YOU would a certain variety of sweet
pea or peor1B in your garden.
IT would be hard to calculate how
much money the psychology takers have
taken from the pocketbooks of the pub
lie on that one point.
outside the takers, it must be ad-
.nitted that at least one fairly popular
school of psychologists say that you
can make anything you want to out OF
Yourself. The whole idea must be taken
with a good deal of reservation, for we
are all what we are in consequence OF
thousands of molding factors.
Another large section of the public
would like to know how to know people
They want to know what the types are
how to identify given individual with
a type. and then how to handle the
individual in question.
These two problems constitute the
essence of personality psychology. IN
fortunately, the general public has been
misled somewhat.
Personality is, for the most part the
f1owering-out of experience. But who
can control his varied and millionfolo
experiences? And as to types. are there
not as many types as there are situa-
lions to which the individual is trying
to find adjustments? 1t seems that

Meatless Meals.

The most spectacular of all food
economies can be achieved in the mat
ter of meat. There is no food store
where SIS can be spent more quickly
than at the butcher shop. The supreme
act of economy i'll meat can be accom-
plished by cutting it out entirely.
There are, of course, plenty of fami-
lies which do without meat entirely, and
without any apparent impairment OF
health. In some instances this is a
voluntary act of economy. In one
household know of it came about be-
cause the father was ordered by his
doctor to give up meat. The mother OF
the family went to considerable pains to
prepare meatless meals that we're appe-
tiZing and up to all dietetic standards
with enough non-meat proteins to sub
stitute for the forbidden meat.
The result was that the entire family
went vegetarian. The meals were de-
licious, nourishing and easier to pre-
pare for the whole family than for one
Most of us like little meat, and es-
pecially where there are growing chill
dren meat once day or once most
every day is a good thing. Meat gives
us a source of protein food that is
needed by growing humans. The pro-
TENS are the bodybuilding foods and
are specially important where there are
children.
Eggs, cheese, milk, beans, peas. lentils
nuts-all are meat substitute foods that
should be plentifully eaten if meat is
neglected. Be sure of your ability tc
cope with this problem of supplying
enough proteins in your family's diet il
YOU omit meat.
