The World
HPHE bankruptcy of the esteemed Police Gazette, at the age
of 65 emphasizes the change in American moral standards,
since the early 90 's.
In the radiant youth of us "older boys" the Police Gazette
ranked No. 1 on the parental "Index." With its wasp waisted
chorus girls, its "Champagne Charlies", and muscle-bound prize
fighters, it was regarded as the last word in lascivious depravity.
As a result it was bootlegged on Main Street, surreptitiously
cached in the barn, and to be caught with a copy, meant a some
what painful demonstration, that to spare the rod spoils the
child.
Through the passing years the Police Gazette did not change.
But American moral standards did, particularly those of the
younger generation. And news stand literature changed also.
SO the dime novels of Nick Carter, gave way to true detective
stories, and the Police Gazette to a perfect flood of pulpy
literature, from "Movieland" through True Confessions, ,to
Snappy Stories.
' The Police Gazette succumbed, not because it was too
naughty, but because it wasn't naughty enough. It passed out
of the picture, because it failed to keep up with the times.
Not only with the new note in sei appeal; but the new note in
literature. For the Police Gazette remained incorrigibly roman
tic; the new generation demanded realism, and a stark frank
ness. So the "Bad Boy" of the McKinley era declined. And as
it staggered on, the big eity tabloid, delivered the "coup de
grace."

the more complete the cure. . .

"I am just as optimistic now about business as I was
pessimistic about it before the crash in 1929. My optim
ism is based not on hopes or wishes, but on facts. The
law of action and reaction is now working to bring
about gradual improvement. From 1929 to 1932 we had
reaction decline. From 1932 on we shall have action
improvement even though the gain will be gradual.
There are two sets of signals to watoh ; First, those
who say the track is being cleared; and second, those
who say the train is coming. Here are some that mean
a clearer track. (1) Debts have been reduced. It was
excess debt that caused the 1929 collapse. (2) Ex
penses have been out individual, corporation, every
thing but government expenses, and those must come
down. (3) Wages and rents are coming down. Many
say that it wages are reduced there is less buying
power. On the contrary, with everything else reduced,
lower wages spread employment, stimulate circulation
of money and increase total buying power. (4) Idle
funds have piled up. The track is elear for reinvest
ment and loans, as confidence returns. (5) Commodities
and securities are very low. (6) The Glass-Steagall bill
and the other emergency measures are clearing up
frozen credits, bolstering weak spots and halting defla
tion." The only fly in that ointment is that it waa written

THE SEVERAL DEGREES OF IMMUNITY
In view of the probability that you
have many other readers entertain
ing Ideas similar to mine In this re
spect, writes our
Chicago reader,
may I suggest
that you write
an article dealing
specifically with
a n explanation
as to how vary
ing degrees of
Immunity could
exist without re
b lata nee? Al
though I am
only what you
would probably consider a more than
usually dumb layman your writings
about immunity versus resistance In
trigue me and I always believed you
up to the point where you began
to tell of various degrees oi immun
ity. To my small mind It seems that
If a person la only partly Immune
that In Itself Implies there must be
some sort of resistance. Either that
Is true or else I do not know enough
about the English language to un
derstand the meaning of the two
words. (W. R. O.)
That's the way I like 'em diffi
dent, dumb and docile.
The term used to express the Idea
Is immaterial. In scientific writing
or speaking It Is customary to call
It Immunity. If anybody prefers to
call It resistance, that la all right.
The only point I am trying to make
clear Is that we know Immunity can
happen, ubut we do not know and
cannot determine In any Instance
whether an individual has resistance.
When you can neither define nor de
tect nor measure a hypothetical fac
tor you are Justified In doubting that
It exists. That s my argument au
complete. I doubt that there Is any
such condition or influence as re
sistance. As this Idea of resistance Is con
ceived by the old fogies in medical
and public health literature, It is
baffllngly Intangible and has no
epeclflo application. They just con
jure up some vague state of resist
ance that protests the lucky son of
a gun who happens to have It from
all and sundry maladies that are
going around. Of course that Is a
ridiculous fancy, but how Is the poor
uneducated layman uneducated In
elementary physiology and pathology
to see the absurdity of it when the
eminent health authority solemnly
warns him about keeping his resist
ance up? i
Perhaps the best explanation I can 1
make for the different degrees of
immunity Is to remind you of the 1
parable of the seed which fell on
stony ground and the seed which
fell on good ground. The ground has
various degrees of fertility or of bar
renness. Ground In which the seed
grows poorly has a degree of Im

CHICAGO, May 26th. This
is straw hat day in Chicago,
warm summer weather which
is appropriate, a heavy rain

Chicago takes "our depres
sion cheerfully. A Chicago
man will tell you "I don't know
whether we have reached bot
tom or not, but I know the bot
tom is there, won't run away,
and I am not worrying."
George Buckley, of Wall
Street, N. T., who absorbed
business cheerfulness in Chica
go, passing through to visit the
folks in Iowa, expressed the
feeling of ninny Chicagoans
"tbre is nothing the matter
with me, that a million dollars

munity, or call It resistance if you
prefer, against that particular seed.
Bo far as my share In It la con
cerned, this controversy has one pur
pose to make It clear to the lay
man that Immunity Is always spe
cific, that Is, it applies to a partic
ular disease and to that disease only,
and it Is never, so far as we know,
of general character such as the
somewhat befuddled old timers would
have you imagine their hackneyed
"good resistance" la.
When we think of immunity we
must think of It In reference to
typhoid fever, or to diphtheria, or
to smallpox, or to scarlet fever. Just
as soon as we become at all vague
about the significance of the term
we wander away from the path of
knowledge Into the blind maze of
conjecture and speculation.
So for health's sake you must ex
cuse me if I interrupt you when
you spring this term resistance on
me, to ask what specific disease you
refer to.

toms or signs of tuberculosis In a
young girl of 17? 2. If she drank
4 or 6 cups of coffee at each meal
what harm would this do? 3. What
Is your remedy for clearing the face
of blackheads? (Mrs. A. D.)
Answer I decline to answer the
first question on the ground that it
might tend to worry many readers
needlessly. More than one cup of
coffee at each meal Is likely to make
anyone jumpy. Irritable, peevish, sal
low and miserable. I am glad to
advise any reader who writes. Incloses
stamped addressed envelope and tells
me he pr bhe has pimples or black
heads. Sweating Feet
Please print a remedy for perspir
ing feet as I am troubled with same.
(R. A. P.)
Answer Feet cannot perspire. They
do sweat. Probably the best all-
around remedy for excessive sweating
of the feet Is formaldehyde. In ord
inary cases the best plan Is to apply
this to the linings of the shoes. Or '
a solution of one ounce of the stand- i
ard Liquor Formaldehyde In six or I
seven ounces of water In a half -pint I

P. K. Wrlg'.ey, 'carrying on the
business of his father, the late Wil
liam Wrlgley. Jr., Is a good ther
mometer of business conditions. Ev
erybody thst sells anything also sells
his product. His father used to
say he had one hundred and ten
per cent distribution, one hundred
per cent of those that ought to sell
chewing gum, and ten per cent that
had no buslnesa selling It.
Two hundred thousand smsll dis
tributors have folded their tents like
the Arabs and no longer distribute.
But Mr Wrlgley says business condi
tions satisfy him, thanks to the fact
that he lives up to his father's ad
vertising motto, "TeU 'em quick and
tell 'em often"
Other advertisers might borrow
that slogan.
Dr Rachelle Yarros, Intelligent
young woman who supervises family
consultation for the Illinois Social
Hygiene league, asserts positively
that husbands do not want to be
flighty and uncertain.
They want to settle down perman
ently, they want to be faithful, they
are at heart almost as monogamous
as the wild gander that never takes
a new mete when the goose dies,
but spends Us life, mourning, al
though eating heartily.
In fact, Dr. Yarros aays, men that
have not found the right woman and
settled down to permanency, are
pitifully lonely.
Mr. Gus Sanger, kidnaping gang

looked down from
her high window
sill, that was still
warm from the
summer sun, and
watched the day
light creep step
by step away
from the corner
of Eyle Street.
Soon It would be
dark.
She had never, In all her twenty
four years, grown quite Indifferent
to the coming of dUBk; It called all
manner ot little magics, little flick
ering fantasies Into her mind. In
the country, she thought drowsily,
evening comes like a bat, every
thing darkens under its wings, but
in the city it drops like a dragon
fly agleam wtih light and awhlrl
with ench&ntment.
"Jen-nee!"
She signed a little and turned
away from the window, rubbing
her eyes with her hands like an
awakening child. Midway between
the window and the voles that was
still gaily calling, stood a tall
mirror atiit on Its stand. She hov
ered before It, despairingly con
scious that she seemed barely
twenty, when she was actually 24
today, and tar more competent than
anyone believed.
"Jen-neet Getting ready?"
iThe shadows she loved were
crowding into the room but still
she dawdled at the graying mirror.
She saw a tumble of pale-gold
hair, so silvery blond and fine that
it lay like gossamer about her face.
Her dark brows and her dark long
lashes painted little shadows on
the taint flush ot her skin; they
gave mystery to her eyes. Very
wondering eyes, wide-set and ot
that pansy-black that has purple in
it, under the sun. . . .
But here came Georgia from her
bath; fresh', glowing, scented.
"Jenny! We shall have to pre
tend we thought they said supper
instead of dinner oh, you've left
the blinds up!"
Jenny blinked. The light by the
mirror, the light by the dressing
table, the two lights over the bed
with a clicking rush Georgle bad
turned them all on. The room
that had been full of velvety twi
light was now a stream of color.
Color was everywhere; and most
glowingly ot all, in Georgie.
Georgle teas color. .
Georgle, thought Jenny, looked
most wonderfully aglow tonight
The thick cream Inesa of her skin
seemed to have a golden tone un
der it. Her eyes had the amber
gleams In them that Jenny loved;
even in the shadow their brown
was not dull or slow. She picked
up the bright enamel brushes and
her splendid arms moved up and
down like flails. Georgle's red
brown hair was short and she
meant to keep It so.
"Which shall I wear, Georgle.

say, people do dance quite often, of
an evening, In this naughty little
old hamlet Especially at Mini's. , . .
What an amazing Infant you are!"
Jenny chuckled. It was a sweet,
deep, sudden sound, more appro
prate, somehow, to Georgle's
throat than to Jenny's. "Ton call
me a scatter-brain but do you know
what you've forgotten?"
Georgie, halfway into hor frock,
was struck rigid in the midst ot
told upon fold of apricot velvet.
"Jenny1 Oh, Jenny, whatever
possessed me to forget!" She
flashed into the frock and threw
her arms round the younger girl.
"Many, many happy returns, Jenny-sweet!
Jen, I didn't forget al
together! Wait look!"
A little breathless, Jenny waited.
Georgle was rooting energetical!;
on the floor of the wardrobe and
presently I she swung out a flat,
de-stringed box, stamped superb
ly "Paraile."
"Oh, but you 'shouldn't have!"
stammered Jenny. "Parfaite Is
most terribly expensive."
"Open it, pet, and put it on. Ry
der Vale is always worth looking
nice for. Besides, there's that un
known stalwart he's bringing with
him. . . . It flts you quite won
derfully. And here are the shoes
to go with it . , . They flt, too."
Jenny, blinking again, gazed at
herself in the long glass. It was a
silver dress silver touched with a
taint, cold green and, where it
dropped to the sliver shoes, with
an even colder, steely blue.
"Come here and let me see to
your hands," Georgle told her
cousin. "I believe you've been put
ting them into greasy water again
Didn't Mrs. What's -her -name

"Oh, yes. But there's a lot ot
work and I like helping her. 1

In the apartment and with no Job. I
ought to earn my keep either here
or somewhere .else."
"Don't bother your head about
It. You're happy here. You can't
leant to go governesslng again?"
Jenny was silent. Georgle
wielded file and buffer confidently.
"I'll see about same little half
time Job at Matching's," Georgle
said. "There may be something
you can do on the clerical stair
under Mr. Croze. I'll ask him."
"Oh, Georgle, there's no one in
the world so kind as you! If only
I can pay you back some day!"
Georgle's fingers snapped deri
sively. "Get yonr cloak no. wear my
Jade shawl, there's a touch of silver
on It."
"Let the fringe hang, child, It
gives you height." She added, al
most casually; "D'you know you're
going to be a very lovoly woman?"
"I'm a woman already," said
Jenny sharply. "I'm 24. I wish
you'd grasp It."
The next second her hand had
flown to her mouth. What In the
world could have possessed her?
To be rude to Georale. when the
very clothes on her back were
Georgle's gift?
It was a tremendous relief to
hear Georgle's easy laugh.

should be a fool to marry yet,
Jen."
"Shall you tell Eddie that yom
won't marry him for ages yet?"
Georgle's big, creamy shoulders
shrugged. "Oh, my dear Infant"
She bagan to redden her mouth
lavishly but with competence.
"Yes, I suppose I shall tell him,'
she agreed, presently. "Seems a
shame. In a way, when he's so
proud-making. He is proud-making,
Isn't be, Jen?"
"He's nice," Jenny said softly.
"And good-natured and flre-sideyj
and he adores you. And he's fa
mous in his tray. There was a lot
in the Record this morning aboat
his last flight. When Is he com
ing In to town again?"
"Not this evening, I hops."
Georgle said, grimacing. "I do so .
dread arguing with him. 'Frald
I'll give way, I suppose, and And
myself in a semi-detached house,
with a daily maid."
"And yet you want to marry
Eddie," Jenny said. "I do wish
that you didn't have to leave Mr.
Matching It you marry. Is It abso
lutely out of the question that he
would make an exception In your
case? Couldn't you possibly per
suade him to let you stay on?"
"Not a hope." Georgle slithered
Into ber cloak and led the way
rapidly down the stairs. "All his
rules are of iron but this one Is ot
terro-concrete If a woman in his
employment marries, she must go."
Jenny followed her splendid
cousin into the waiting car. Was
there another word that so well
described Georgle, wondered Jen
ny? "By the way, Jen, when we get
to Mini's, go straight Into the lob
by while I tip this chauffeur. Ry
der phoned that be might be late
but the man he's bringing is to
wait Just under the light."
Mllll's. . . .
Jenny gathered her frosty skirts
together and got obediently out.
The man under the light she
sighed a little looked very much
like all the rest of Ryder Vale's
friends; polite, over groomed,
slightly 111-at-ease.
Then the man under the light
was suddenly whisked away by a
big woman In petunia chiffon. Jen
ny, at a loss, adrift like a little
lost Icicle upon an acreage of red
carpet, turned to wait for Georgia.
She turned sharply and a man,
not In the least like the one who
had been whisked away, looked
down into her eyes and asked ,
"Miss Revell?"
"Yes. No. Not t?i Miss Revell."
In vain Jenny tried to be coherent
about It.
The man continued to look down
at her. She bad never seen snch
Intent eyes. They were laughing
at her, those eyes or weren't
they?
