In the new studios there aro also dangling ropes and things, Jarring a bit ugainst the artistic decorative ef fect of the walls and ceilings, but they represent the clash of utility with beauty and utility trlumplis in a studio. The walls, floors and doors of each studio rest on springs which rest upou the real wall or floor, with a Hpaco between. The doors are three layer In structure, each layer on springs to guard against vibrations. Air from the ventilating system passes through a "silencer" before it enters the studios, so there will be no hissing through the "mike."

Jan. 23 i&s With only three dissenting votes the lower house cf the Canterbury convocation of the Church of England Thursday gave its approval of faith healing and asked that It be given the official tanctlon of the church; The approval took the form of a petition to the Archbishop of Can terbury, asking him to appoint a Joint commission to frame a provi sional service for unction by the im position of hands, this service to be used until a permanent and fully authorized form could be Issued un der aynodtcal sanction. The vote on the resolution fol lowed' discussion in which Christian Science was praised and criticized. Rev. T. F. Monahan criticized It as a religious faith. In other speeches it was praised as a means of faith healing. "We cannot lose sight of the fact," said Mr. Monahan. "that a great deal of what Is called faith healing is really due tt natural causes, and that the faith which is essential Is sub jective rather than objective. That is why we see so many cures from what is called Christian Science. It dec-sn't matter what the faith of a person is where mental healing is concerned. ' The Blshcp of Woolwich said Chris tian Science had grown because of neglect by tne unurcn oi engiaiia, "Communicants in our church." he said, "are continually Joining Chris tian Science. They say: 'I have been In the church for 30 years, but I have never heard spiritual healing mentioned once. Since I have Joined Christian Science I have never heard anything else. I want to get what has been denied me by my church.' " In asking for a vote on the resolu tion as an "historic occasion." he moved a supplementary resolution, which also was passed, suggesting that modern therapeutics and psy chology as applied to mental and nervous sufferers, be taken into ac count in framing the proposed serv ice for the physically infirm. "There is not the slightest Idea In the minds of any of us." he said, "of bringing back any of the medieval Ideas associated with extreme unc tlcn and such errors. I have a horror of medieval errors."

What. then, ought the average man to know about health? To this ques tion Professor Winslow of Yale uni versity, gave an answer at a recent meeting of the American Public Health association. "It would be helpful. Professor Winslow said, "if the average citizen really knew something about his own vital mechanism, if he nad a real grasp of the basic conception that the human body is a living m tic nine, working in accordance with physical and chemical lows, and operating as a co-ordinated whole, with the health cf each part dependent on the nor mal functioning of all tne rest. "If such a concept were really held not as a form of words but as a solid and vital conviction four-fifths of the delusions and superstitions. and quackeries that impair the heaun of the human race, would vanish like a dream." There is no snecial virtue for lay- 1 men to know by technical names ths bones, muscles, nerves, or oincr pans j of the body. ; However, a "working itnowiease oi the mechanics of digestion, despir:-.-ticn. circulation and elimination would make the prescribed rules lor proper living for understandable and more appealing to the average man.

We should learn to treat the relative or friend or colleague ! who is fretful, or fearful, or sus- picious or aggressive, or Jealous, or 1 Just plain "ornery." quite as we would treat a companion on a walk who I was handicapped by a lame knee.
