135 ove Making Be Semoxis Will Art if Profess bias His Way Students Crowd Hyde Park in London to Study Latest of Exacf Sciences;' Expert Pointers are Obtained by Englishman By DEWITO MACKENZIE LONDON, Sept. 11. AP -Seldom has England been so profoundly stirred as sheis ,at this moment over the pro- nouncement by Professor At E. Heath at the Cambridge summer school that serious Study should be devoted to the . ..People throughout the country are turning their atten- u-co this matter. Hyds Park is crowded of an evening with students who are anxious to learn more of what appears be an exact science.' I am reminded of a remark made by General Sir Char les Monro, when he was commander of the British first army in -France in 1916. We were chatting about how well the English Tommies got along with the French mademoi selles, and I suggested that one would expect them to en counter difficulties in the fact that neither knew the other's language. To this the grizzled veteran replied with a twin kle in his eye : s "My boy, the language of love needs no words." Professor Heath's dictum stirred my imagination. I dLj- f really felt it to be my duty to get some first-hand informa- r sussed his proposition with my wife, and pointed- out that I Hon regarding the science of love-making for my readers, ' "Now I know a very bright, blond young lady," I began; "Great stuff, Old Beam" interrupted the wife, "but nev- ier mind the blond. You can start right here at home. , Be sides, it will he 'much less expensive to take lessons from me than from the blond. Just double my allowance and we will call it square." So that was that. Another fond hope gone west. My wife is English, and the English are a ery hard people to argue with. Having failed in my attempt to secure person- pal information for my readers, I turned to Jmy bachelor friend, Aubrey Hammond, the distinguished British illustra te tor and theatrical scenery designer, who qualifies asr an ex- ppert on lovemakiig through. having once emulated Leander v.- , : VIT11 i a 1 : i j. m l L aid.

This disease usually begins to increase in July and reach, es a peak in September. -The number of cases reported each week this year, however,, has not reached the figures for the corresponding weeks of last year. ' Public Health Service officials say that; although the cause of the malady has -not been definitely ascertained, most of the scientists-who are working on' the problem are con vinced that responsibility rests with a germ too small to be detected by a vailable methods with microscopes and filters. A preponderance of scientific opinion is that the disease is communicable, and it is believed to be spread most fre quently through secretions from the nose and throat of a vic tim. Evidence also has been found to support the belief that it can be spread by persons who are not suffering from the disease but have been in contact with cases. The chances of this sort of transference of infection taking place, how ever, are considered remote. Until more specific information is obtained about the disease, the health authorities recommend that parents in communities where it is prevalent keep their youngsters away from other children, whether the latter are well or ill. No preventive serum has been discovered, they explain, so keeping children away from each other in time of danger is the most effective safeguard known at present. Parents also are advised to keep close watch over their children if they develop symptoms resembling those indicat ing the beginning of a cold. The disease frequently makes its appearance in this way, with perhaps a slight fever. A convalescent serum obtained from persons recover ing from the disease has been used by a number of physi cians, the health authorities say, with varying degrees of success, but no certain cure for the malady has been developed On a trip to rlsit his parents Campaign managers are count while on furlough, James H.

Brasher Of Gates Follows High Society Folk High Power Methods Used by Peculiar Pest in England Make Getting Rid of Him Difficult Proposition, Hostess Finds i ABERDEEN, Scotland. Sept 10.--(AP) Encouraged by the ban on the gate crashing in London, long-suffering hostesses are awaiting some one to put an end to country house crashing now that British society is installed in Scot tish shooting lodges and country seats, t Country-house crashers are much more difficult to get rid of than the uninvited guest at smart dances, just as they must be much cleverer at inveigling -an entrance to country house parties. The crasher in the city finds.it easy to get lost in the crowd and may never meet his hostess during an evening. The country-house crasher must nave at least a bowing acquaintance with his victim. This he or she usual ly can scrape through an introduction by a mutual acquain tance. After that the game is fairly easy. The crasher asks casually, "Are you going to Scotland this year?" "Yes," replies the unsuspecting hostess. uWe have taken a shoot; in the highlands." "Why, I shall be in Aberdeen in August," exclaims the crasher. "You must ask me to stay with you." , The new acquaintance laughingly passes off this bid with ajpolite, "Of course," or "I shall have to look over our ar rangements," and. thinks no more about it But within a day or two a note from the crasher is sure to arrive, proposing such a wide choice of dates that it is impossible not. to issue the invitation, if only for a week-end. Once installed, the unwanted guest invents some ex cuse to extend the visit and meanwhile the next victim is written to: "I am spending a. fortnight with Lady C whose shoot is only a short run from your lodge. May I come along to you for a few days on the 24th? If that is not perfectly convenient dear Lady C will gladly keep me here until you can have me." If the plan works, Lady C , whose name usually as sures the next invitation, is told, "What do you think, my dear?' Mrs. H; is at - and has written asking me to stay with them from the 24th. Will you keep me on till then? They are so near that it isn't worth while going elsewhere for the few intervening days." Tex Rickard threatens to stop broadcasting prize fights.
