An even more practical objection I to the free use of the Country Club I by the juniors was the fact that it (was almost impossible to stock pro- | visions enough to satisfy their never-ending thirsts and hungers for they seemed to be entirely lack- iiifi in tlip modren calory-con- \ -iouness. Tlip concensus was, give them a i club of their own by all means, and if V.T> hove to help support it we I will. The more conservative members of the 5-ocial jet felt that the safest inri sanest thin; to be done for the children was to get them away from their eldrrs ill the social life. Cer- t linly their pure young innocence \ as lew likely to suffer early de- filement if kept in complete segre- t^iion from the daring unconven- tionalism lliot had overtaken so many parent:-: at middle age. The robust middle class was par- ticularly pleased. reckoning- that the hours of gay. exhausting bodily labor that confronted their child- ren in the renovation of Mill Rush could not fail to contribute the red blood, sturdy muscles and becoming tan quite incompatible with the ten-arinking, incense -burning, eoi-kt Liil-Fhaking amusements to which the upper classes had be- came addicted. So many hard-work- ing people try to comfort them- selves with the notion that a healthy body is father of a healthy j mind. But among them all not one was more genuinely delighted than Phil herself, who had observed the signs of mental depression in her pretty stepdaughter with increasing con- cern. In the beginning of their life together she had tried—as the rich are prone to do—to insure her con- tentment with lovely, costly gifts, neuroses were and still are called functional disorders of the nervous system. The modern school of psycholo- gists would not hesitate to say that the function, the chemistry of the brnin could be influenced by mem- tnl activity. Hence this first of the two com- promises that will be mentioned makes concessions to both groups iif contenders. with pretty clothes and with expen- sive tours. Ultimately she thought it would be a good tiling for Ginger to marry Eddy Jackson, in which case she planned for them a house and finely equipped laboratory for Eddy's agr- fringe of Doorndee. where they vitii a surprisingly favorable re- io «»\ ra l experiments in the outer iction. would have the freedom and priv- acy to which every young couple is entitled, but where she and Mr. Tolliver, when he had detired from active participation in church Screen Life in Hollywood .

Playing a role with Lowell Sher- man in \Bachelor Apartment.\ which he also is directing, Miss Murray says that in three years she made almost a half million dol- j lars in personal appearances in all parts of the country and that her income from oil property and other investments is several thousand a week. Art for art's sake, in other words. Bela Lugosi, who has played only villainous parts, and extraordinari- ly heavy ones, since he came to the movies, was for many years Aus- tria's foremost romantic actor. He began playing Shakespearean roles when he was 16, and was called the Don Juan of the stage in his coun- try when he become older. Husband of Slain Girl's Friend a Suspect RADIO SCHOOL MA'AM.

Ginger's own emotions, as far as men were concerned, were in a state of safe but deadly somnolence. She was not at all sure that she believed in love; her persmal opinion was that she probably did not. Love, she found, was apt to be eitlisr rough or messy, and neither mani- festation appealed to' her.

Alford There are two sides to the qu tion of mental activity—two ways of looking at it. Is the ruling in- fluence the brain or the mind? Some scientists iay the brain is the thing and the mind only its product. They contend that if the j mind is good, the fact is owing to ! a good brain and if the mind is poor, it means a brain that is lack- ing somewhere. I On the other side of the question | are those who believe the mind is | the dominant force.

If In the past the mind lacked i something, the brain grew a struc- turc to supply the deficiency. It would seem therefore that the mind molds the brain to suit its needs. Most of the evidence at first right seems to be on the first side of the question, Many defects in the brain affect the mind. There is some evidence in favor of the second side. It is claimed that blisters have been raised on the skin by suggestion under hyp- nosis. That however is about the only proof that the mind can actu- ally change the .structure of tissues. A compromise between the two s-tclcs was made by the theory of ••lunctional\ disorder. According to thi.s theory the structure may remain normal while its activity becomes disturbed. This compromise theory was the one that was for many years held to account for the neuroses—the lijrtiTias imil neurasthenias where the brain appeared to be normal but jits activity was \disturbed The An investigation by one of our focret operatives revealed that it was nothing more than a New Year's (greeting from Henry L.
