JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Nancy Wynne Tells About Interesting Tennis Tourna
ment at Cape May and Players Enter cdrTalks
About Where People Arc Going and Why
YOU may think from the reports of
the tennis tournament up in New
port that it's interesting or exciting or
oven thrilling, but jou don't have to
go that far to get nil those feelings.
Newport lias nothing on Cape May In
the way of tennis tournamentR accord
ing to the way they feel about it down
there, nnd the excitement nbout the
mixed doubles almost makes them forget
their meals.
You sec both of the one-time junior
chnmpions arc entered in the doubles,
Kitty I'ortcr and Kddlc Tabard, and
that adds to the interest. Kitty is play
ing with Hal l'nttotr nnd Kddie with
Helen Scwcll, who nre both awfully
good, too. Jack nnd Elizabeth Stru
bing, of Chestnut Hill, nre entered to
gether, and Whitney Wright and Mar
lon Dougherty, who, by the way, are
playing in very good form. 1'ansj- Scott
nnd Sfitninic Carpenter are entered and
Emlcy Cook and Norris Ilnrratt, and
I'.nnning Grange and .Jim Ferguson nnd
lots of others who are good plners so
watch the results, The winners will be
champions ns is champions.
They had a real tingody down there
last week, when those two girls were
drowned. And nobody seems to be nble
to find out who they were. Don Lip
pincott brought them in, I believe, and
Hetty Scott Clark, who was driving the
Nntlona League ambulance that week,
rushed all over the place trying to find
n trained nurse, but unfortunately
nothing could be done in time to suve
them.

ERNST HAECKEL DIES;
NOTED EVOLUTIONIST
German Professor of Zoology
Was Author of Epoch
Making Books
Jena. Germany, Aug. 11. Ernst
Ileinrich Hneckel, professor of zoology
at the Univeisity of Jena, world
famous as a disciple of Darwin and
advocate of the evolution theory, died
hero on Saturday.
His health had been failing for more
than a jear. On his eighty-fourth
birthday. February 1(1. 1018. Prof.
Haeckel sent out to his friends en
graved birthday cards bidding them
farewell, and declaring he expected to
die before the end of the j ear. Ills
valedictory, expressed the hope that
"soon after the end of this mad, cul-ture-destrojing
war, our longed-for
German pence will be firmly established
on a scientific basis."
Present-da knowledge and theories
of evolution along biological lines are
largely indebted to scientific researches
made by Professor Haeckel.
A number of his books have been
epoch-making, including one of his first
works, "General Morphulog," written
when he wa thirtv-two ear.s old and
which he later enlarged upon in n
work called "The Natural Historv of
.-i !., '
.VjIVI.V.hu
Ilis chief contribution to science nnd
philosophy during the war, his work
on "God and the Immortality of the
Soul," published in 101.r, brought a
recurrence of that vigorous criticism by
opponents of his theories that has
punctuated his long scientific career.
Professor Haeckel was one of those
who signed the circular demanding the
retirement of Chuneeltor von Bethmann
Hollwegg of tiermnn, in the fall of
1010. The circular arrnigned the chan
cellor for his conduct of affairs and
attacked pnrticularl his attempts to
reach 'an agreement with Knglnnd nt
the beginning of the wnr, his early at
titude ou llelgian neutrality and his
submarine warfare policy

Candidates for public health service
are to be trained in the department of
preventive medicine to bo established
this fall in the Woman's Medical Col
lege of Pennsylvania. The curriculum
of the new department has been ap

Dr. Martha Tracy, denn of the
Woman's Medical College, sa.vs: "One
out of every four of the young men of
this nation examined as recruits for the
national army were physically unfit for
military service. This fact came ns a
shock to the American people, nnd now
in our hour of military triumph we
nre searching with serious concern for
the underl.ving muses of this deplorable
situation nnd for the cure.
"The problems of reconstruction
which concern us as a nation do not
involve the rebuilding of a devastated
country, but they do point unmistakably
to a program of public health educa
tion which shall conserve our children
nnd jouth by correcting the conditions
which have resulted in such low phj id
eal standards.
