tion OF the snow and indicate their

The Cristanes of Ethiopia.

About 80 miles southwest Of Adds
Ababa in Ethiopia there is a tribe OF
people called CristNnes whose language
is allied to the official language of the
country, Amharic. These people all
belong to the Coptic Church. They
keep fasts and holy days innumerable.
But the people are pagans at heart,
openly worshiping Satan, sacrificing
to him in times Of sickness.

Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS.
Abilities Appraised.

EOR some 20 years several students
of human abilities have been
attempting to appraise the abilities
of men at different ages.
Thirty years ago European savant
declared that men past 40 were COM
paratively useless and that men past
60 were almost universally so. The
golden years of production he placed
at the Is years between IS and 40.
Einstein wrote his first paper on
relativity at 26. Bohr proposed his
quantum theory at the age of 80.
Dirac discovered relativistic quantum
equations at "a. De Broglie discovered
the wave properties Of matter at 33.
These men represent the present CEN
tury. If you go back into history you
find that the same thing has hap
pened through the centuries. So 1t
appears that, on the whole, the Eu-
ropean savant seems to have hit upon
an important discovery.
OF course, there are exceptions.
History will prove that, too. Prove 1t
in abundance. And then comes the
rebuttal: A man like Darwin, for
example. didn't produce until he was
past so. And yet 1t Is known that
his "Origin OF Species" was in his
mind more than 20 years before he
published it.
Still the question remains: When
does a person mature?. One answer
is that mental maturity goes hand
in hand with physical maturity. II
that Is so, the golden years are indeed
somewhere between Is and 20.

Scudder's idea perfectly.
After rapidly sketching out his idea
of the drama in the studio, Scudder
purchased a complete recording of
Rachmaninoff' S tone poem. He played

"Yes, I've listened to a great many
of his stories on the air, Jeanne ack-
nowledged.
Romance? Sure, what does he
know about it?" Mrs. Murdoch went
on, shaking her head sadly. Hes
in that room all day long, banging at
that machine. He never does any
thing but work. Some days he doesn't
even go out to eat, but sits there and
pounds and pounds. But he's success
full, I guess, judging from the checks
he gets in the mail.

landlady continued, "but he likes it

bit proudly. But little rest wouldn't
hurt the boy. He works too hard,
but you know that, darling, being a
writer yourself"
Hes such a dynamo that he makes
me feel like a sloth," Jeanne replied.
It was extremely warm when Jeanne
came along one afternoon quite IA
tigued after strenuous day OF chasing
stories for The Star. The young mans
typewriter was clicking furiously as
she sauntered along the hall.
His door was open and for q mo-
ment Jeanne paused, quite taken with
the industry Of the chap. He was the
picture of an author, she agreed. Shirt
open at the neck, cigarette alongside
him burning, quite neglected, as he
beat steady tattoo on the keys.
She watched for a few moments,
quite forgetful that she was an in
terloper-that he might turn at any
time from his prodigious output Of
romance for the radio.

Jeanne was trifle embarrassed

smiled at her.

recover her composure.

which you work." she complimented.

accepted his offer
to sit down, that
you're a reporter.

kindred spirits. I

II restore Cinderella"
JEANNE was away on an out-of-town
story assignment for few days
and saw nothing of Mr.. Cinderella,
as she had taken to calling him.
Mrs. Murdoch was coming out OF his
room as Jeanne came along the hail.
The landlady trod softly as she ap-
preached Jeanne.
Hes ILL.," she disclosed. Taken
down with a cold and a little fever
the other evening. The doctor says
he been working too hard"
Would it be all right for me to go
in and see him?" Jeanne asked.
He did look wan; and he was i'll,
Jeanne observed as she entered the
room quietly.
"1'll be all right in a day or so," he
said as she drew near.
You see I have to be up and about"
he confessed bit grimly. I've got
work to do"
II know the show must go on"
Jeanne said.
Gould I be of any assistance to
you? I might type your scripts. I'm
quite familiar with your show and
after all I do write little" Jeanne
said.
You're a great help" Mr.. Gin
derella thanked her.

MR.. CINDERELLA was no better
A the next afternoon and the doctor
ordered him to Garfield Hospital, and
Mr.. Cinderella was too weak to object.
Meanwhile, Jeanne poked through his
scripts and after her own hard day
on The Star continued writing his
shows where Mr.. Cinderella had left
of.
1t was two weeks before he returned
to Murdoch's after completely con-
quering his illness.
Jeanne was in his room at the type
writer when he entered.
Mrs. Cinderella" he called out to
her. you've done swell job on the
show. listened to all Of them at
Garfield Hospital"
He came over to where she sat at
the typewriter and leaned over her
shoulder.
"You look tired" he declared as she
turned around.
For q moment he paused and then
suddenly took Jeanne in his arms and
kissed her.
1.-THE doctor has ordered q bit more
rest for Mr.. and Mrs. Cinderella" he
said, "and I think we might make it
