Bill and Mary are both popular young people. l know that their friends are always welcome tho Johnson homo, But this idoa Is an excellent bit of social train- ing.

her. Kenneth Corbett had written to apologize, she decided. But there was no word of apology on the paper. Merely the statement that he would like to see her and discuss the events of the morning. Bright lad" Sue murmured. "Ie isn't putting anything in writ ing because he doesn't want me to have any documentary evidence. He's played this game before. Prob ably didn't sign his name even." She turned over the page and looked at the next sheet. There was no name. ESQ I thought" she murmured. He won't see me. I'm leaving town-quickly!"
 She had bought oYfe new fall en- semble, although summer was still lingering. She dressed in 1t care- full. A soft brown and tan wooden skirt with c jersey blouse of yell low that had a rolled neck that was intriguingly simple; brown suede oXfords, brown suede gloves and pocketbook, e soft, crushable felt hat. She looked smart enough to get by anywhere, she decided rather gayly. But all the time the anger at the man who had brought her along under the guise of c sec- retary was beating in her brain.
 She went down to the desk to announce that she was checking out and that Kenneth Corbett was responsible for her bill.
 The clerk listened to her at- tentively. He examined the ledger of names and came back to her. t... ISx As.k Corbett has left implicit instruc- tions that he is not responsible for your room."
 But I'm his secretary, here on business for him." Sue hastened to explain. But she understood what her employer was attempt- ing to do. He knew that her room was an expensive one-seven or eight dollars day for the two days that she had been in it, may meals and, valet service would bring the bill up considerably higher. He realized that the amount of money which she had with her would not pay this bill and buy railroad accommodations By refusing to meet the financial burden he had voluntarily assum- ed, he would keep her a prisoner in town.
 What is the bill?" Sue asked. The clerk named the sum.
 Sue opened her pocketbook. She counted her money. She didn't have enough to meet it.
 "Very well-I'l leave later," she explained, and turned away. So Corbett insisted in a chance to explain! He wanted to have the matter adjusted before she left town. These thoughts went through her mind. She left the desk. crossed the lobby, went into the coffee shop and sat down at Q table in the corner.
 And almost at once a mascu- line voice said: T appreciate this opportunity of seeing you again. I'm going on with my interrupted breakfast, too, I hope you don't mind-too much"

1.-Yes. as proved by the increas- ing frequency of divorce. However. while this is party very bad yet. in the opinion of our soundest socioIogists. it is partly an evi- dence of the emancipation of women. Formerly. when marriage became unbearable. 8 woman had almost no recourse. And while some women have used 'today's emancipation as a means for trial marriage, which is altogether an evil, yet the remedy, I think. lies not so much In making divorce nore difficult. as in making mar

3.-The answer is a qualified yes,
 although the behaviorist schools of
 psychologist-to whose beliefs I
 am chiefly committed-does not believe that the processes by which
 past experiences remain and in-
 fiuences us are quite the sam as
 the ultro- -Freudians believe. The
 latter believe that each past act O rexperience remains in the 'sub-
 conscious'' or unconscious" mind
 as either a sort of good fairy or
 evil imp or ''repressed wish" struggling to get up" into the
 "conscious mind" and pull or push us this way or that. sometimes evan in dreams. The behaviorists have . different. and I think more helpful, explanation of all this which l shall discuss here soon.

Montreal, (UP)-The old belief that the Arctic Eskimo cannot stand heat has bene shattered, ac- cording to reports reaching here from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Arctic post at Pangnirtong. It appears that Constable Me- Ginnis, in charge of the post, was entertaining a group of Eskimos in his quarters. He fed them bis cults and, after the customary talk, waited for them to depart.

He loaded the stove with fuel, opened the draughts, closed all the doors and left the room. He waited Is min- utes for signs of the natives de- parture but in vain. He re-en- tered. The Eskimos had not stirred from their places despite the fact that the stove was red hot and per- spiration ran down their faces. They were sound asleep.

Stories were broadcast that they were subjected to inhuman treatment. Severe punishment
 was admitted by the commandant, but he brought forward convinc- ling evidence that 1t was justified. An Investigation followed and soon, with some changes in meth- cd of operation, the normal rou- tine was resumed.
 NOW 'NfODEL PRISON'
 Since that time, Alcatraz has
 been publicized as a model prison:
 Six hundred inmates can be lodged there in separate cells, and the place is strikingly clean. The cell block has large windows on all
 four sides, admitting light and
 clean breezes from the bay. The present main building was erected l about 23 years ago.
 In the buildings are furniture,

(Copyright NEA Service 1933.) Alcatraz prison, the huge bulk of it's buildings rising from a 12-
 acre rock jutting up from San Francisco bay, enters a new era in
 its grim history. Soon. instead of
 military prison, it will be the place of confinement for Americas s
 most dangerous gangsters, kidnap- CTS and racketeers.
 Fortified in 1854 as the first
 American military base on the Pa- cific coast, it became an army dis
 cipinary barracks in 1868. over
 the long period to the present day,
 military prisoners have looked
 across the bay with longing and
 hopeless eyes, knowing that there
 was no chance of escape.
 TIDES ILLUSTRATE ESCAPE
 In it's long history, no inmate
 has ever made his way to freedom.
 Swift tides stream past it's jagged slopes on all sides. Through these, even an exceptional swimmer would have no better than one chance in a hundred to win his way to- shore, mile distant. Many havetried it. Some have been drowned. Most of them have been picked up. exhausted. by har- bor craft. and returned to their cells.
 There will be no sudden break, no swift dash across country in au- tomobiles, guns roaring, for the gangsters whose fate it will be to enter the prison on this bleak rock. The government has found the answer to it's puzzle of an es- cape-proof penitentiary.
