By Dr. Morris Fishbein Sir Humphrey Rolleston is con- winced, as are also practically all who have made a scientific study of the subject, that heredity is the most important factor in determin- ing the span of life. Among 184 persons whose parents both lived snore than 80 years the average age at death was 052.7 years whereas among 128 persons whose parents «died before 60 years of age the average life was 32.8 years. It was found for instance that the rate of mortality was profoundly in- fluenced by the density of the popu- lation. When a certain number of fruit flies together occupied a limit- ed space such as was represented by the bottle in which they were grown, the volume of air, the volume of food and the area of food surface ‘being constant, the crowding defi- nmitely influenced the rate at which the flies died. Whenever the opti- mal density was exceeded the death rate increased. In an endeavor to determine what it is that is inherited that makes one family live longer than another, Professor Raymond Pearl, of the Johns Hopkin's University, conclud- ed that the thing might be charac- terized as ‘inherent vitality.” The human being is conceived as an ag- gregation of matter that has the property of automatically changing ¥ood or energy into hard worl, compo- nent matter of itself, or wasle, Ob- wiously human beings are diiierently organized and vary in the iaanner in which they utilize the products of the earth in sustaining lite, The inherent vitality is the total poten tial capacity of the organism to per- form actions necessary to life. With this fundamental premise in “mind it is possible to formulate cer- tain factors that influence longevity. Bir William Osler said that much depends “on the quality of arterial tissue (vital rubber) which the in- dividual has inherited.” Another way of saying the same thing was ®he famous proverb, “Man is as old as his arteries.” Before giving advice to the aged as to conduct of their lives it may be well to recognize some. what their economic conditions. It is estimated by Dupblin, statistician of a famous life insurance com- any, that one and one-quarter mil- Ex persons in the United States who have reached the age of 65 are in want and are supported by char- ity, public and private. This means that 28 per cent or more than one out of every four are dependent. It has long been known that re- tirement not infrequently has has- +} Lhe tened the death of the aged. Dig- mitaries of the church, chief jus- ices on Supreme Court benches, Prime Ministers, and thoze of simi- Zar professions whose activities are wrolonged tend to live longer than ners. Apparently the most important advice for attaining and prolonging old age has to do with the diet. A half-dozen proverbs attest the man- ner in which men have accepted this fact. “ou dig your grave with rour “Man does not die, he Kills hi and Lest of all the Jdouble-e« tatement of the Hoo. sier farmer: “Pigs would live a lot longer if they didn't make hogs of themselves.” An investigation made by one life insurance company re- vealed that i3 per cent of some thousands of policy holders nd the age of 40 were more an 20 per cent overweight. Persons at this age have usually stopped tak- ing even the physical exercise of walking. : Since it is impossible for us to choose our parents, all that we can do toward the prolongation of life is to avoid rehtable disease by The usual sanitary and hygienic pre- autions and by having physical ex- lon at once each year le the presence of the dis- w2ases of middie life that come on insidiously. Avoid worry since itis of the greatest importance in using up the inherent vitality. Modera- Tion in all things, a certain amount of mental and physical exercise, some time in the open air, and a reasonble amount of happiness— ®hese constitute the prescription for a long life and a useful one. a ( at DODGING HAY FEVER By R. 8. Copeland, M, D. Many persons dread the summer months. They are the victims of hay fever. Hay fever, or Summer catarrh, originally received its name by rea- son of the extreme sensitivity of crtain individuals to the pollen of hay and other grasses. These in- dividuals, in addition to this partic- ular sensitivity, may be sensitive to other plant, animal and bacterial proteins. There is a similarity between this disease and the symptoms met by persons who are unpleasantly sensi- tive to certain foods. Foods such as eggs, shell-fish, strawberries and tomatoes may produce severe distur. bances in susceptible individuals. Hay fever and other associated diseases are found at times to run dn families. It is believed by some authorities to be a sort of heredi- : affliction. en exposed to the offending “plant, there is at once a sensation ‘of heat and fullness in the eyes. “There are redness of the eyeballs wand a of tears.

Wad- dell, was a constant reader of your paper previous to his death last year and due (o that fact, the pres- ence of the “Watchman” in our ‘home had the effect of making me astically indorsed and received such support that today 56 national, state and provincial organizations have put their pledges behind it. Recently a wave of support has {come from the Middle est and ' South, particularly from Manitoba, the Dakotas, Kansas, Nebraska and Texas. These are States on the great Can- ada-to-Canal highway, called already the Main street of America—which ‘will eventually run from Churchill on Hudson bay, down through Can- ada, the United States, Mexico, and Central America to Cape Horn. It will be, it is claimed, the world’s greatest highway from the sub-Arc- tic regions of Canada through the tropics to the southern tip of the continent. The road now runs from Bows- man and Swan Kilver, Manitoba, across the bcundary and down through the United States to Mex- ico City. It is not yet a completed highway throughout. The reason for the recent strong wave of support from regions on the Canada-to-Canal highway is evi- dent from the fact that the road runs through an area that is being considered as a possible—one might aimest write probable -sita for the International Peace Garlen. This area is Turtle mountains, on the boundary between Manitoba and North Dakota, one of the few heights of land in the mid-west praires. Geographically this area could not have been more ideally located for its purpose. It is on this main north-south highway of the conti- nent and on the boundary line almost exactly midway between New York and Vancouver. It is, in fact, almost at the exact «eographical center of the North American continent. THE JEWISH NEW YEAR AND DAY OF ATONEMENT. With the setting of the sun last ¥Friauy evening sept. 11th, this na- tion's million of Jews joined with their bretiuen lhroughout the world in the ceicbration of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, the observ- vance of which dates back to when the twelve tribes formd a nation of farming people in Palestine, In every temple and synagogue in the Stale as weli as in scores of temporary places ci worship set up for the Jewish Hecly Week, special colmmemoralive services were held. The oL:rvance, which ushers in the year 5602 of the Hebraic calen- dar, will be followed by a peniten- tial of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, on Sunday, Sept. 20th. At sundowil tomorrow night Sep- tember 20, the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, the most holy day in ‘he Jewish year, will be ushered in- to the world with solemn prayers, and picus Jews in all parts of the world will ab:tain from food from sundown until sundown Sunday night. According to the Hebrew faith, on Hashonah, the Jewish new year, the decree concerning the fate of all mankind is made and on the Day of Atonement the decree is finally seal- ed. The period between the New Year and the Day of Atonement, known as the Ten Days of Peni- tence, is a time during which an evi decree may be averted by prayer, charity and penitence, In Chapter 30-31 of the Old Testa- ment it speaks of this day as “An atonement shall be made for you to cleanse you; from all your sins he- fore the Lord shall ye be clean, It shall be a Sabbath of rest unto you and ye shall afflict yourself hy fast- ing as a statute forever.” verted into inflamation, with discharge of mucus and pus. Irritation of the ncse produces sneezing. This becomes extremely violent. There is general discom- tort, and the patient is miserable | indeed. Within the past decade great ad- vances have been mace in the treat- ment and cure of hay fever and sim- ilar diseases. I refer to the “disen- sitization tests,” which some day I shall undertake to describe in detail. Following these tests an inoculation of serum is made. This treatment demands a ‘and tedious procedure, but in many instances is most effective. It re- quires a good deal of patience on your part, but I recommend it as free fever and asthma that do not re- spond to treatment. keep away from the cular pol- len that precipitates the attacks. If you are a sufferer from asthma, hay fever or rose fever, the time to consult your physician is before the annual season arrives. By a few simple tests he may determine your sensitivity and immediately give you the necessary injections. If suc. cessful, your Summer months will be passed in ease and comfort. pause once a week to scan your columns—especially the one you are pleased to call “ Slings.” Ac- cording to popular belief “ink” is a clean colored fluid. Judging by some of the items mn the above- mentioned column your conception of | “ink” is different; in fact, if Ishar- ed your evident idea of that sub- (stance I would hesitate to remove long | well worth your time and trouble. turn from exile Premier Maniu and There are occaslonal cases cf hay | the |gance which actuated the the cork from a bottle of it because of the stream of protest that would arise from the people about me against the release of such a nause- ous, filthy compound.

Of course, you are printing a partisan paper, and it's common knowleige that where there's pol- ities there's bound to be a very rot- ten odor, 50 I can pardon the uze of this extremely noxious article you use in your pen 80 ing as it's con- hnad lo dasiing off— (I say “dash- ing” because some of (he iteias don’t show any carefui and thought- fui eliort in their mai.e-up)— polit. ical quis but I cannot help become ing incensed when your mindsireys from the political r1ic.d and smirches an individual belief that is not even distanly connected with any political group. I refer to the supposed wise-cracks about Jack Dempsey In the issue cf Sep- tember 4, and the remarks anent Konrad Bercovici in the August 21st issue. Now then, Mr. Editor, you believe yourself to he a sportsman, don't you? You have given me that idea and up until lately I had believed it. is it any evidence of sports- manship to delve into the past and dig up calumny to hurl at a man who has been a phenomenal success despite fellows like you who tried the same sort of stuff some years ago and were disappointed in the re- sults? One would think that you don't share the opinion, very dear to lot: of folks, that when a man faces trial, insists on facing i nd is acquitted he is presumed MmAfent and {ree of any stain. Or are you one ¢f those who never knew Jack had a trial by jury on the charge of being a “slacker?” He did, :ometime after his battle with’ Jess Willard, and he won the case on its own merits—acquitted on the very first hallot. I am not a worshipper of Jack Dempsey. I am one of “Fair Play's”. I admire the courage and spirit Dempsey possessed in climb- ing to the heights he reached. I admire a champion in anything, even a champion rubbish-collector or ditch-digger. Even champs are human beings and have the same feelings as you or I. Do you hon- estly consider it sporting or even necessary to attempt to degrade a man by recalling a closed incident as you have done, or were you so overcome by the political fervor which is so prevalent at this time of year that you forget to remem- her your position as a sportsman and a gentleman? The type of at- tack you used is disgustingly filthy I don’t know or care whether Jack is trying to make a come-back or not. I do think he can still deliver a right hook to the jaw that will knock his victim's knees out of joint and when vou pull gags like the one yon did I earnestly wish that your target could walk in on you and do a little training. So much for that. Think it Mr. Editor. Am I right or am I wrong? Now for Mr. Bercovici. Your statement regarding him was: ‘Reading Bercovici's nook wouldn't change our mind a bit on the mat- ter of Carol's philandering. Be- sides, his evidence is partisan. He is a Rumanian author and if he didn't give Carol all the ‘breaks” and make Helen and Marie look foolish his head would be chopped 0 EL” I can plainly see that your knowl- edge of literature is not on a par with your knowledge of fishing and politics. How much have you read of Bercovici’s writings on his native country’s distressing situation? Don’t tell me. After reading that “Sling” I know. I have read con- siderable of his works and IT am ut- terly unable to find sufficient rea- son for your remark. Rumania has been in the public eye for the last ten years and most of our news from that little coun-, try has been about Carol and his paramour. Previous to Carol's re- over, Peasant Party planned to bring him back. Queen Marie had com- country | in his th. Everyone | a Marie's arro- | s | efforts to bring Carol from Paris. We know that the plans were dis- covered and Marie prevailed upon Helen to ask for a divorce in the effect to keep Carol permanently away. We know about the barter- and conditions under which Carol returned; we remember his declaring Helen's divorce null and cently published in “Liberty” re- garding this affair: i “Having been brought up in the royal palace of Rumania, Carol's moral outlook on life is a one. In his eyes common morality Kennel Foundation, Rockford, hi- holds together the herd, but kings, queens, ces, and princesses are comple exempt from it—Premier om. ed to interfere with Carol's denunciation of Helen. He could hardly believe that the king had tricked him and abused his confi- dence—The Peasant party attempt- ed to govern without a leader af- ter Maniu voluntarily went into ex- ‘ile but no one seemed to be able to form a cabinet that would please the king. He wanted to work only with such men as agreed with him about his marital trouble—" He carries us on through the days when Helen announced her engage- ment to a young Russian officer and Magda's return to the palace at Bucharest. Not once in the recital of Roumania's late history does he show any love or respect for Carol. A depth of feeling for the unfortu- nate Helen is expressed while Marie is given more than fair treatment. He deplores the fact that Magda Lupescu's charms have obtained to such an extent that statezmen and politicians are at her beck and call. He continues: “We are being ruled by a volup- tuary in the hands of a skillful courtesan. Magda Lupescu isaveng- ing herself for the humiliations Helen and Marie have heaped upon her. To please her and to pacify her, in exchange for the favor she promises, our queen is being sep- arated from her son. She has been stripped of titles and honors and has been impoverished so that even if she wanted to leave the country vol- untarily she could not subsist even in 2 small way on the income she now has. Carol's private fortune is in the tens of millions. Helen's iz prohably mot more than fifty thousand dollars. One has to g5 back to the Middle Ages, to the Borgias and the Med- icis, to find a parallel for such a situation. One has to delve inte the stories of the harems of Orient. al potentates to find the equivalent of such intrigues. The scandalous comedy that is being enacted be- hind a thin veil in the royal palace of Roumania causes many people to sit back and laugh themselves tc tears. But those, like myself, whe love their native country, cry with rage when they realize that a few fat bejeweled fingers pull the strings which actuate a puppet who rules over eighteen million people we love.” What do you think, Mr. Editor? Is he giving Carol the ‘breaks?’ Ts he making Helen and Marie look foolish? Is his evidence partisan? Does he try to change any decent thinking person's ziind on the mat- ter of Carol's immorality or even ask them to pardon him for a re grettable weakness? Personally, 1 think that Mr. Bercovici gives Caro! as fine a “panning” as is possible and permittable in print. The next time you're requested to read some-' thing, maybe it would be a good idea to look up the author's views on a matter before casting com: ments about him. As it is, I can't help laughing at a break like you made. Watch that “Ink Sling’ column. I'm going to keep my eye on it pretty carefully for a while. Very truly yours, OWEN K. ADAMS Ti Sunbury, Pa.

EE ———— a ——] FRENCH TRACE ORIGIN OF TENNIS TO HOMELAND The game of tennis really origi- nated in France and not in England as generally supposed, according to Jean Lecog, spoits writer of the Petit Journal. “Lhe game which we have import. ed from England is, as far as can be ascertained by historical docu- ments, an old game played in France centuries ago. The English learn- ed it from our ancestors. It is an Englishman who gave proof of this. “In 1838, Robert Dallington, secre- tary of the British Embassy in France, published in Paris a work entitled ‘The Views of France' in which he remarked that the French were very enthusiastic over bodily exercise, such as found in dancing, shooting the cross-bow and the play- ing of paille-maille.
