What to Read
About Heredify

Please furnish a list of reliable
mp-to-date books ON heredity.
The work which think furnishes
the best resume of all the funda-
mental observations and expert
ments is DR.. E. B. Wilson's The Cell
m Development and Heredity (Mac-
millan).* A late, popularly-writte
work, dealing with human heredity
only, is You and Heredity, by AM
ram Scheinfeld (Stokes). Wig
cams Fruit of the Family Tree ia
still quite modern and decidedly
worth reading. Woods Heredity IN
Royatty Henry Holt & Co.., much
used by Wiggam, gives actual fam
lily case histories from the only
source where we can get human
ones-the aristocracy. Human He-
redaty, by Baur, Fischer and Linz
(Macmillan)*, does in a more sci
entlfic way what Scheinfeld did
popularity. The Chances of Morbid
Inheritance, by Blocher (William
Wood & Co.'S, gives the probabili-
ties; 1t might be valuable to pros
pectlve matrimonial partners who
have an hereditary problem but who
want to take a chance "a group
from whom I constantly hear).
Mohr's Heredity and Disease wv.
w. Norton) deals with that subject
not very thoroughly but gives ref
erences to 16 other books dealing
with the same problem. Special ar
ticles in the medical journals run to
the thousands.

Suddenly a huge flash Of red
fire leaped out OF her funnel A
great puff of black smoke was
belched out. The great ship seemed
TO shake. Flames faped up.
Nearby Was the German steamer

LOOKS WE'RE DECEIvING
The United Press correspondent
watched the drama from an air
plane flying above the Admiral
Graf Spec. The slim fighting ship
had eased slowly down the channel
from Montevideo's inner harbor.
The plane dipped low. The Ad-
miral Graf Specs hull and control
tower seemed intact. showing no
trace Of the shell holes inflicted
by British cruisers. A few sailors
were working here and there on
deck. She seemed a normal war
ship passing out to sea under
normal conditions.
Now she was In water so shall
low her propellers could be seen
kicking up mud and she was lesv-
ing a long, brown wake. IT APP
peared that her skipper might be
intending to run her aground de-
iiberately and thus gain more time.

A small boat put off from her
and made for the Tacoma, which
was two miles away. We saw II

Two more small boats put off from

WITH FINNISH ARMIES
ON THE KARELIAN 18TH

ON HE kAhELlAN 1877
MUS-The crucial battle of
Mannerheim line, which in
comparative ratio of import
ance constitutes Finland's YER
dun, ragged with undated in
tensity today on the banks of
the Taipale river.
Again and again Russians hurled
waves of attacks against Finnish
defenders in what almost has as
sumed the proportion of a decisive
battle for this sector. The Rus
sian attack, Finnish commanders
believed, was designed to enable
them to slip around the left side
of the Mannerheim system of de-
tense which the Soviets have dis
covered cannot be smashed by
frontal assaults.
BY making occasional
plunges into the center of the
main Mannerheim line, the
Russians apparently sought TO
draw Finnish troops to the
. front on the Taipaie river.
Meanwhile, the Red army
made repeated thrusts in the
narrow sector between Lake
Ladoga and Lake Suvanto In
an attempt TO turn the Finnish
flank.
These assaults were supported
by whitening artillery fire in what
military experts said was hope OF
slaughtering the Firms and pushing
them back by the sheer weight OF
tanks, men and METAL.
The Firms said the Russian as.
saults had been thrown back with
heavy losses to the Red Army. The
Films claimed, too, that even IN
the face Of repeated setbacks ths
Russians were under increasing
pressure TO advance.
