He is q Chinese gentleman in shanghai, named Chang Wu Lun. and his letters are usually limited to the laconic inquiry as to whether Gary has tired of radio as yet. Several years ago the Chinaman heard Sid while he was playing in a San Francisco theater, and arranc. ments were practically completed for Sid to return to China with him to appear in a Shanghai nigh, spot. A radio offer came up and Gary accepted 1t instead of the trip to the Orient.

More radio contracts are signed outside of the studios than within their precincts. The custom these days is to sign contracts over the conviyial supper table, and Gene Riss, proprietor of the Man About Town Club in New York, has probably witnessed more radio contracts signed than any of his confreres. The Man About Town Club is within close proximity of NEG and CBS in New York. and is proving to be mecca for sight seers who wish to get a glimpse of their favorite radio artists in the informal manner.

Hanging 1t on the General

TN their early married life about 1917 Ruth and
Haywood constantly were getting into situations
They would register at a hotel as Haywood Broun
and Miss Ruth Hale and this almost invariably
called for a long explanation and pep talk from
Ruth to puzzled room-clerk on a womans right to
her identity and the scope and purposes of the
Lucy Stone movement.
There might be a compromise proposal from the
clerk They would let her sign in as Miss Hale but
would write Mrs Haywood Broun in parenthesis
for the sake of the record and won / that be all
right? No that wouldn't be all right. She wasn't
Mrs. Haywood Broun. She wasn't anybody but
Ruth Hale and room clerk or formality could make
any one else Of her
Possibly when all was explained and Mr. Broun
and Miss Hale installed in their quarters the
hotel people fouled her to the extent of writing
CMrs Haywood Broun) without her knowledge.
Old General Robert Lee Billiard was among the
early victims of the confusion. The general was
distinctly od-schOo He probably had not heard
of Lucy Stone and, in all his experience with the
civilized tribes, the wife took the husbands name.
One afternoon in Lyons when Haywood was the
New York Tribune's man with the A. E. F., he and
Ruth met General Billiard on the street Incidental
ly, Mr. Broun not the most soldiery figure in
the A. E. F., and as he and Ruth Strolled along he
was eating jam tarts out of a paper bag and had
traces of the powdered sugar his &hiskers. I
believe Ruth was eating jam tart, too.

out Of Office on the ground that his record betras
him as an impractical visionary Now the fact is
that Mr.. Sinclair, with the possible exception OF
Bernard Shaw is the most successful author in the

termine success. I am cOntendng that Upton SIN

Today S Science
by DAVID DKTZ :

TINE peaceful scene pictured in the Book of
Il Genesis when Adam on terms Of friendship
with all the animals in the Garden Of Eden may
have had its counterparts in many regions of Asia
during the early days Of mankind That is the con-
clusion of DR. Walter Hough Of anthropology
at the Smithsonian Institution Washington who
announces new theory TO account for the domesti-
cation Of animals.
He believes that domestication arose out of amity
and not through mastery. In support Of this theory
he points to Isolated parts of the world where ami
mails exhibit no fear Of men. His thesis is that fear
arises among animals only when it is engendered by
the actions of men
Most domestic animals believed TO have come
from Asia, and there, according to Dr. Hough early
had temperament especially adapted to in
spre friendship and confidence among the animals
The fear that is engendered in animals by hap
penngs out of the ordinary" says Dr. Hough is
a protective device. Where for a period of I'M
determined length animals not subjected TO fear
the protective device is obliterated becoming use
less function"
TN new territories, the discharge of firearms and
i the light and smoke Of campfres soon puts an
end to this Eden-ike simplicity DR.. Hough says.
Before long" he continues. fear is displayed
often in exaggerated degree, and the animals
become educated in evading dangers.
The inventions OF man for the capture of ami
mails require increasing refnements TO be effective
There is doubt that most animals are apt STU
dents in the school Of experience"
In support Of his theory, DR.. Hough calls atten-
ton 70 the fact that there remote zones where
animals are unaccuStomed to fear.
One such zone was found in Tibet by naturalists
of the British Mt Everest expedition" he says In
this the naturasts allowed to observe the
animals. but not to collect disturb them, these
rules being promulgated by the T1betan authorities

~ collections has just been added TO the Smith

Grass growing on the sides of

paved road topping them is just
as good flood control work as
those big hunks Of earth you see
over there now" Mr.. Walsman
points out.
The difficulty now, with our
rivers. low from the drought, is
to keep them at the proper stage.
Inland beaches along the banks
would serve as water reservoirs
as well as a flood control measure.
The river always would have
some place to go-and that place
would be a bathing beach, where
it would do the most good to a
suffering populace."
THAT place is treeless now, but
you can transplant trees twenty
feet tall. Men need jobs, don't
they?"
TT is Mr.. Walsmans belief that
i recreation is linked funda-
mentally with the future planned
by President Roosevelt for hu-
mainly in the earning of its daily
bread.
Back of this White river park
beach and playground, he sees
rising modern, well-lighted build

and tin-can homes now along

street to the rear Of Crispus

In these sections now poverty
sits on every rickety stoop. Homes
pride themselves more on the
color of the rags stuffed in broken
windows to keep out inclement
weather than in paint. Detection

Of geraniums. Children play in
