The chances in the combinations
are tremendous. Moreover, there
come to be tendencies to perpetuate
such differences, SO that constant
novelty is being introduced in the
development of various types Of
people.
Finally, it now is well-established
that the environment of the indi-
vidual may play a considerable part
in modifying his hereditary charac-
teristicS.
Our present knowledge of the me-
chanism of constitution and in
heritance leads to the view that a
child is neither the sole expression
Of its inheritance nor the mere
chance of its environment.
Professor Guyer points out that
these must work hand in hand. Dor
mant capacities must have the
proper environment to develop
them, but no environment can de-
velop special capacity unless there
is some degree Of aptitude present
at birth.

RiQht to Guess

IT was at this point that hundreds
Il of listeners began to call up
the National Broadcasting Co., and
ask that Mr.. Shaw should be shut
eff the air.
That was very foolish. They
much more sensibly would have
asked that George Bernard Shaw
be compelled to read the news
papers which have been printed in
the last six weeks.
If President Roosevelt were intent
upon the creation of a Socialist
state he would find it necessary to
obtain a very considerable amount
of ripping and tearing in the Con-
stiution, but as far as his an
nounced program goes I can see no
particular provisions which stand
in his way.
Certainly there is no present rea-
son for complaint about congress
Slonal interference. Indeed. the
amount of power which lies in
President Roosevelt's own hands at
the moment bulks up very consider
ably when compared even to that
possessed by either Stain or Musso-
lini-Mr. Shaw's friends.
AS for the rotten congress-"
think that any birdseye view Of
american history will show that
its ability has matched up with
that Of the average American Presi-
dent and that on certain occasions
II has been bulwark of protection
against executive inepitude.
When an inefficient President
begins to complain that he could
nave done this or that fine thing
put Tor congress, he is fooling no
BODY but the American boobs and
George Bernard Shaw.

It Seems
to Me
BY HAYWOOD BRoUN

MANY people probably liked Mr.
WI Shaw's lecture better than I
did Some drew their satisfaction
out of witnessing an extraordinary
feat in endurance. and there ALWAYS
was the undeniable charm of the
man.
But it was precisely that last
quality which did 50 much to make
the evening a disappointment. Shaw
is, Of course, a serious person. It
is not his fault that some of his
most profound observations have
been greeted as if they were ex-
travagantly humorous saIlies. But.
for all that, his Metropolitan Opera
House address, in spite Of its length,
was a lazy performance.
George Bernard Shaw did not
bear down more than once or twice.
He was content to coast along on
charm. In so far as a structural
idea could be found in his discourse,
it was based on the premise that
democracy has been proved a po-
litical failure and must give way to
dictatorship.

such cases the defective gene may
dominate.
This happiness, for instance, in
the case of inheritance of certain
forms of degeneration of the eyes
or of disturbances of the nervous
system.
When two defective genes are
combined, the results may be feeble
mindedness, various forms of in
sanity, lack of fermentation, etc.
In other instances, however, the
traits concerned may be considered
beneficial, as for example blue eyes,
fair skin, blond hair and similar
characteristics.
When it is realized that so many
different chromosomes enter into a
combination and that so many vari-
atoms Of their relationships may
occur, it is not at all surprising
that several children in one family
vary greatly.

BERNARD SHAW IN AMERICA

THOSE who went to the Metropolitan
Il opera house in New York expecting
Bernard Shaw to put on performance rival

must have been disappointed greatly. Those
who went to hear what Mr.. Shaw thinks
about the present world and the United States
in particular were rewarded richly.

And hear the deaf'ning boom
OF breakers bursting on the beach,
And see the fuchsia bloom.
1 want to feel the sharp salt spray,
And know the kelps bright red.

Like blood that Ireland's bled.
Since Ireland's lost her liberty
And I have been away,
I've never found in any land
A place like Bantry Bay.
No islands are there is this world
Could stand by Bantry'S own,
And half the beauty of them show,
When Bantry Bay is blown.
For then the waves break high and

Upon the yellow clay
Of tiny islands bathed in foam
Way out in Bantry Bay.

By John E. Bayless.
The skip election law for cities
and towns of Indiana is causing
so much commotion among politi-
clans and some who desire to be
candidates that they are fighting
in the courts. This law was passed
by a legislature duly elected by the
voters of Indiana and they voted
for what they wanted and they
should be heard.
They are the people who pay the
bills and not the politicians, who
are parasites on the public, looking
to their own selfish ends and not for
the public good, so we can see clear
ly that it is the rule of the poll
ticianS that has brought us to the
dilemma that we are in at this
time.
There was a time when we had

and it took about seventy-five years
to get legislature chosen that had

day, thus saving the expense of one
election.

make all offices four-year terms

WE MUST IMPORT, TOO

CECRETARY OF COMMERCE DANIEL c.
~ ROPER has performed public service by
reminding us that imports as we'll as exports
are essential to any trade recovery.
Pointing out that we have no right to ex-
pect foreign nations to give more generous
treatment to our exports than We give to
theirs, Roper said:
ct is fundamental that we can not sell
goods to other nations without permitting
them to sell goods to us. This means a mu-
tualIy profitable exchange Of SURPRISES"
This is fundamental, to be sure-but it is
a fact that we have lost sight of in the last
few years.
Of course, it doesn't follow that we must
let foreign nations tell us how high our tariff
rates are to be. But it does mean that we
must be ready to buy, as well as ready to sell,
if international trade is to revive.

QUAINT INVITATIONS
 CHOSEN FOR PARTY

If a tiny apron, fit for a doll, reaches you through the mail don't think it a belated Christmas present.. Look in the tinier pock- ct and you will find an invita- ton to the Valentine Tea and Reception which will be given by the Guild of the Trinity Church CT the afternoon and evening of February IA.
 Ladies of the guild, in search of something different for their par tg, have been busy making the ql aint apron invitations for the last week or more, but even SO were not able to have enough ready to mail to everyone.
 We want everyone in town who is interested in helping the church, to come to our party said Mrs. c. E. Rice. If they didn't receive an invitation, they can get one at the door,
 The catch in the apron invita- ton, is that admission will be charged by the waist measurement } penny an inch. Those who re- eeive them through the mail may slip the proper number of pen mes into the pocket, present them at the door and no one will be aware of any unusual girth. Refreshments will be served dur. ing the afternoon and evening.

LAW IS UNFAIR,
MERCHANTS
DECLARE
Petition, Test Case Planned in
Fight to Have Rule
Changed in County

Beer dealers in Prince Georges
county are uniting in a fight
against the provision of the
county 80 beer act which pro-
hibits the sale of the malt drink
on Sunday.
The merchants who handle the
beverage claim they cannot stand
the loss encountered from the
lack of beer trade on Sunday.
Hemmed in as they are by the
District Of Columbia and Mont
gomery and Howard counties,
where no laws exist effecting the
Sunday trade, Prince Georges
county store owners believe they
are entitled to a right to dis
tribute beer every day in the
week.
With this point in view the
dealers are planning to circulate
. petition among themselves and
have a test case Of the violation
brought into the courts.
E. S. Aldrich, of Riverdale
Heights, is the originator of the
plan and already has received the
signatures of approximately 80
dealers.
With beer granted in Mt. Rain
Ter and Riverdale, there remains
no dry spot in the county. Ap-
plications to sell the beverage
pour in daily.
