All this was done simply the rats the right proportions of phos- phorus and ealcium. This correct ra- tio was about four parts of phosphorus to three of calcium. Proportions of three to two did not work. Not only the ratio was Important but the amount also. There was a minimum of the fertilizers below which they failed of effectiveness. When the rats were fed too little and in wrong proportions, the report states that 80 per cent of them cavities In 140 days. With balanced diet this decay 5 per cent. The Investigators further tained that the portion of the phos phorus In the blood is of vital impor tance, and that this is related to vitamin D.

Washington,—While Harry F. Pow- ers prepares to go to the gallows In March in the state penitentiary at Moundsville, W, Va., federal authori ties are making a nation-wide inves tigation of matrimonial agencles and love clubs such as the one through which Powers met two women he mur- dered. There are more than 300 such agencies in the United States, it is asserted, and they have more than a million “members,” including both men and women, The government charges that men and women are not only being swin- dled by these organizations but also that through them they are also being placed at the mercy of confidence men, blackmallers, and even killers, Many Others Like Powers, Powers, who was condemned to dle for killing a Chicago woman after he had made love to her and obtained her money after meeting her through a De- trolt matrimonial agency, i8 not the first to take life under such circum- stances, Still remembered 18 the case of De- sire Landru, called “Bluebeard,” the Frenchman who dismembered the bodies of 11 women to whom he had made love before robbing and then killing them. Landru lured his vie tims through “love wanted” notices, as also did Bela Kiss, a Hungarian, Kiss became engaged to more than 25 women through various matrimo- nial agencies and killed 30 of them. Years ago Johann Hoch, of Chicago, acquainted with 12 women married, robbed, and then became whom he killed, Agencies Are Thriving. The fate met by the victims of Pow. ers has not by any means put a damp- I er on the business of the matrimonial ‘LOVE CLUBS’ agencies and, the love clubs, Investi- gating agents have learned. Hundreds of letters are put into the malls every day in all parts of the country as men and women from all walks of life take advantage of honeyed offers of “soul mates” and “connybial bliss” Investigators assert that all sac quaintances arranged through these matrimonial agencles are dangerous, There are numerous cases where “love club” correspondence has resulted in happy marriages, but at the same time the dangerous contacts so greatly out- number the safe ones that federal au- thoritles have asserted that there should be more strict federal super- vision of the activities of all of them.

Student Unable to Sell Gold That He Panned Toronto, Ont.—A University of To- ronto student is “broke” gold in his pocket, The student spent the summer pan- ping gold in the Yukon. He sold part of his earnings in the north country, and brought more than an ounce back. Now he can't dispose of his ounce of gold. The banks won't accept it, the Jewelry stores said the amount was “too small to bother with” and the refineries agreed, “I's a funny situation when you can't sell gold,” he said, “but maybe it's the gold standard.” with $20 in AAA Eas aaa a TWO WAYS By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK Emeritus Dean of Men, University of Illinois.

Write Croeo & CThalley PALM SPRINGS California Health Associated With Slimness and Laughter The old advice, “Laugh and grow fat,” is out of date. Not many years ago fatness was regarded as a sign of robust health, but we know now that it is even in babies or young children, Dr. Lechmere medical officer for Doncaster, Er nd, claims that the phrase should be “Laugh and grow healthy.” “Laughter,” he sars, “is essentially associated with good health, but adipose tissue If at all undue, cannot be regarded as a fa- vorable condition. Leanness of body is far more likely to be associated with strength and energy.” The fat perscn, he explains, has to make his heart and his muscles work far harder than they were designed to do, since they are called upon to deal with an extra load of from one to many pounds.
