This question Of the unsolved riddles connected

Evidence presented at the meeting would appear 70

some authorities. DR.. Esmond R. Long OF the
Henry Phipps Institute Of Philadelphia said believe
that first infection paves the way for the so-called
destructive renfcCtion type Of the disease.
But it must be conceded that 1t IS not the sole
prerequisite for the Lucrative iorm since age ana
other factors enter DR. Long said
At the same time there Is sound reason to believe
that first infection sets in motion forces IN the OPP
posite direction. An abundance Of experimental m
vcsticaton has established the immunzing character
Of first infections
HR LONG based his opinion largely upon the
IL hndincs at post-mortemS. He said that the
findings OF the scars Of healed childhood type tuber-
ctlosis and healed adult type we're more common
then the fnding Of healed childhood type combined
with the progressive type Of adult disease
1t would be- uuwaTTanted 10 say without qualln-
cation that The childhood type disease gave an i'm
munity which prevented the adult type disease from
becoming progressive IN cases Of the former type De-
cause We have no means OF measuring IMMUNITY 70

ments however. at least suggest that this might De

DRJA MYERS Of the Department Of Preventive

EUerub0dy'S Doing 1t

A FTER three or four days OF TINS mysterious
N apathy, inquiries were made and frankly an
swered with another question: How much?
It was then further explained that the columns

was ethical for Paris and that there was no use 60
ing to the boss abou. it because that was the way
the boss got his too.
The solemn occasion which has been mace OF
routine spat between athlete and Journalist IN THIS
case is an interesting contrast to American manners.
Tor example on a recent day, Mike CantWeI' Ior-
merv the trainer of Max Baer, confronted tommy
Laird of the San Francisco News and, without 1or-
mallty tapped him briSkly on the nose, Ihereat,
Mr. Laird gravey stepped back and said, All rlght

rights to the face and body, amounting IN all 10
much better contest than the one for which Mr.
CantWell had been training Mr.. Baer.
1t is possible to report that Mr.. Laird raised
shanty on Mr. Cantwell's eye and won the decision.
Mr. Laird. on a previous occasion, left the press
box stepped onto ballyard and chased noted ath-
lete out of the park and the motto, "All right we

He has fought often, with fairly consistent success
and with strange jcviality which relieves his fights
of that ill-feeng and cold politeneSs which mar
the duel or arms.
Nobody has ever been killed manned in Mr..
Lairds affairs of honor but satisfaction has been had
IN abundance and his honor is kept in frst-claSS

Q-What are the boundaries of the Antarctic
region?
A-The name is applied to the area encircling the
South Pole and technically and automatically it is
bounded by the Antarctic Circle. The Antarctic land
masses do not extend much beyond that boundary
but the Antarctic influences extend to much lower
ATTITUDES the solid ice fields drifting nearly all
sides below latitude so degrees S. and between the
southern extremities of Africa and South America
even below latitude so degrees s. The limit of this
drift ice may be taken the limit Of the Antarctic
region Therefore. the Antarctic region is bounded
by the Atlantic. Pacific and Indian Oceans and its
land mass lies chiefly within the Antarctic Circle.
Q-Do birds have a language?
A-Figuratively they have. They can express
anger, warning, delight. pain and counting. One OF
the outstanding differences between man and the
lower animals is that man possesses the ability TO
articulate and form phonetic sounds, and in that
sense birds have no language.

Theories of All Are Offered in
Support of Heavy Tax on InheritanceS

in the ofing. however, the fear
that if rates were placed too high,
the law would be held unconStitu-
tional on the ground that it was
conf1Scatory.
Oklahoma is said to have the
distinction Of having once had the
most unusual inheritance tax law.
In the early days Of statehood,
large estates were subject to 100
per cent confscation under a law
that provided rising scale of
rates.
The rate depended upon kinship,
and complete conflscation was
said to be possible theoretically
when a large fortune was left to
non-relatives Of the deceased.
This law has been displaced by
one much more moderate, with a
maximum of about 16 per cent.

his ability to pay increased.
This theory carries with it the
graduation of rates in inverse pro-
portion to the closeness of the
relationship of the legatees to the
benefactor. 1t is argued that
strangers or distant relatives
should pay more than immediate
relatives because the inheritance
comes to them more of a wind
fall than to near relatives.

rance and not his mother acted

One of the results of this i'm
portance of women in the ruling
house is that women have in
many ways a higher status in
Travancore than in most of In
Ola. Literacy among Travancore
women is II per cent, compared
to per cent in India as whole.
Furthermore. women are on
equality with men, both as to the
vote and eligibility to election to
various municipal bodies and to
the Travancore legislature.
The present ruler was carefully
educated by an English tutor and
was installed as ruler in Septem-

were of civilian character, he

Queen Victoria in 1877 There
was no religious ceremony, as the
ruler is deemed to hold his posi-

god Padmanabha, 70 whom the
state was dedicated e4-1lries ago.
After the CIVILIAN ceremonies,
at which the British Agent placed
upon the boys head the gorgeous
velvet, bejeweled cap betokening
sovereignty, the lad went to the
temple of the state god
Here he presented to the temple
a young elephant and then spent

boldness he came to Travancore,
where the feeling on the subject
on the part of the highest caste

rioting.
