Noted Ethnologist Retired

TINE Government has lost one OF
its best known artists ana ex-
plorers through the retirement
i provisions of the economy bill.
This Is De Lancey Gill OF the
Bureau of American Ethnology, one OF
the original group assembled IN 1884 10
form this unit of the Government Serv-
ice. Early in his service he explored
large desert areas of Arizona. Lower
California and Sonora, in Mexico, ex-
tensiyely. In 1900 he traversed 800
miles of the old Yuma Trail from Mexi-
co to the Colorado River. This Is prob
ably the most desolate trail in the
world, marked by hundreds OF graves
of gold seekers who either were killed
by bandits or died of thirst.
With his knowledge Of architecture
he was able to prepare the drawings
from which the models Of ancient Maya
temples, now in the National Museum,
were prepared Between 1889 and 1891
he was in the field, locating ancient
Indian village and quarry sites. His
discoveries in the latter field determined
definitely new classification Of certain
artifacts which previously had been
considered the date from the last great
Ice Age. He showed that they were OF
comparatively recent manufacture.
One of the most valuable assets of
the Bureau Of Ethnology is its collec-
ticn of nearly $4,000 negatives OF In
dian subjects, more than half Of which
were developed by Mr. Gill. He has
classified this material according to
linguistic stocks, linguistic groups and
tribes.

Your Health and Diet
By Logan CIendening, M. D.

omitted from the diet scurvy
develops.
The food substance. the lack
of which will cause Scurvy, is
called vitamin c.
Scurvy, though rare, will de-
velop today any place, in any
one who subsists for any length
of time on a diet lacking in
vitamin C. 1t increased great
ly in the military and civilian
population during the World
War. The fact that the disease
is so rare today is due to our
changing diet, which has in
the last so years broadened
greatly in its inclusion of fresh
foods-milk, fruit and vege-
tables. In these times it is far
commone' to see the disease in
infants than in adults.
Vitamin C is soluble in water,
like vitamin B, and unlike A
and D, which are soluble in fat.
Vitamin C is found in so
many foods that you would
have to work pretty hard to
plan a diet for an adult which
left this vitamin out.

two more tricks. The fifth de-

the fate of the contract.
Usually it is not good policy
to lay down an Ace not accom-

led the 2 of hearts, rightly
thinking that Y held some
high honor strength in that
suit. Being confident that Y
held the K of hearts, and that
z could ruff a return lead Of
that suit, the declarer won
with dummy's Ace. Had this
not been done Y's K would
have won the trick. Everyone
at the table knew that 2 had
led a singleton and that he
held at least one small trump.
Had Y been permitted to win
the opening lead, 2 would have
returned a heart and z would
have ruffed. Not wanting to
lead off his Ace of clubs, z
would have led his Ace of dia-
monds, followed by a low dia-
mond, and Y would have
ruffed. Y would have
known that z could not hold
more than a single trump, as
the bidding plainly showed
that B must hold five spades.
Y would have led a club for rs
Ace to win, and Y would have
ruffed another lead of dia-
mondS. w would have won
six tricks through high honors

WHEN JACQUES CARTIER,
in 1886, attempted to find the
Northwest passage to the golden
land of Cathay, he discovered
the St. Lawrence River. While
exploring his crew fell sick of a
strange and cruel disease. Their
legges swell, and all their skins
spotted with spots of blood of
a purple colour. their moutheS
became stincking. their gummes
rotten"
Cartier learned from an In
dian chief that they could be
healed by eating the juice and
sap of a certain tree. When
branches of this tree we're
brought none of the men at first
"durst taste of it, except one or
two, who presently recovered
their health" Then the others
did the like and were "deliv-
cred of that Sickenes."
The disease was Scurvy. The
tree was called the ameda tree
and may have Deen SaSSaIfaS. or
the large, swampy American
spruce tree"
1t was later that another navi-
gator, James Lind. proposed
lemon Juice as a cure. And still
another. Capt. James Cook,
proved that scurvy could be pre-
vented by a daily ration of lem
on or orange juice.
Scurvy was once a very preva-
lent and fatal disease. Sailors
on long voyages. because of the
restricted diet, were attacked.
In 1882 Barlow. an English
physician, proved that the same
disease attacks infants. The
cause of the disease is a
deficiency in the diet. II fresh

They both tried to forget
what Val had said.
There were times when they

thoughts were secrets from

And still ..-lother new fabric
appears in the fashion picture.
This time it's "rabana," named
for the soft fuzzy rabbits fur
that's woven into the woolen.
1t looks smooth, and not at all
bulky, but is as soft to the touch
as the rabbit it came off. It's
logically a sports fabric, but be-
cause of its beauty and softness,
we find it creeping into more
formal moods, into afternoon
clothes. Perhaps before long it
will follow the lead of corduroy
and broadcloth, right into eve

best was gold, trimmed in a rich
seal brown, though it was good
in other colors, too, wine with
black trimming, bronzy green
with brown, or in all black, for
rabana softens the blackneSS,
and makes a very attractive fab
ric. This frock is all dressed up
with velvet, and you can't imag-
inc what a nice contrast of fab
ric it makes, as well as contrast
of color. Velvet ends the low
puff on the sleeve, finishes the
ascot scarf, covers the buttons,
and the belt buckle, but the belt
is of the material of the dress,
a subtle touch, for too much
velvet would spoil the effect.
And this dress, believe 1t or not,
is only $10.75. It's a shame to
tell the price, for you might
think it looks cheap. which it
certainly does not. These cos
tunes both come in junior sizes,

people who are used to wearing
misses sizes.

You can put an old felt hat
to good use by cutting it into
discs and squares of suitable
sizes and glueing these to the
bottoms of chair and table legs.
You will be able to move your
furniture about without noise
and your floors will be saved
from marks and scratches.

Midsummer Love Song

Now when summer is at flood
Not a leaf must change,
Lest this ardor in the blood
Lessen and grow strange.
Life has granted perfect love
At this perfect hour;
Let no bluebird's bright wings
move.
Let no new rose flower.
Add no silver syllable
To the VOWS now Rde;
BY no glance which speaks too
well
Let love be betrayed!
Joy today is potent, sure,
Touched with godlike peace;
Hearts could no fresh bliss en-

Not a breath's increase!

Was he right in his correc-

He wasn't "too right" in his

Dear Miss Fairfax:

Should a girl be ashamed Of
her sweetheart's step-parent?
I am 18 and have been going
places with this boy for about
eight months. He is a hard
working chap and is wonder
full - me, but my mother has
been telling me 1 should stop
his friendship because his STEP
father is not what he should be.
He doesn't pay his bills as he
should, and, of course, mother
heard the gossip"
But do I have to give up his
"riendship because of this? He
has one sister and he supports
her, getting her clothes and Civ
ing her spending money. Should
he do more? WAITING"
This boy seems very creditable
to me, to do so we'll for his sis
ter, and can't see how he
could be held responsible be-
cause his step-father Is slow in
piuing bills. These days, a
good many people seem to have

Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 have been going with a boy
for over a year. He always
phoned me to make appoint
mentS but about a month ago.
due to the depression, we had
our phone disconnected. He
asked me to call him at his
office and I have been doing
so for the past month, but l
am wondering if it's the right
thing Sometimes my friend
does not know until the last
day If he can keep an appoint
ment, so letter writing isn't
satisfactory. A week ago I
wrote him a letter and in the
letter told him I really was in
love with him. My girl friend
says that I did the wrong
thing. Did I? ELSIE
Too bad about the telephone,
especially as making personal
phone calls at a place of busi-
ness is not always popular with
the office management.
AS for telling a man you're
in love with him-that, my
dear, Is a risk that not many
women dare take. The late
Queen Victoria told her hus-
band, Prince Albert, she loved
him. So did the Baroness
BurdettCoutts, but she was
the greatest heiress in Eng
land at the time.
But it's we'll to let the boy
friend make the declaration
even if he has been, Systemat-
ically and with positive genius,
brought to the point.
Next time you see this young
man just be jolly and friendly
till he's over his fright, if
frightened he is.

The DecIarer,s Advantage

Of course the bidding gives
a certain amount of more or
less specific information to all
players. Frequently, however,
the information conveyed is OF
too general a nature to enable
players to locate important
cards or to realize the best de-
fensive policy. The hand shown
below illustrates one of the
great advantages that the de-
