We sometimes wonder if anyone is really WISE. Take Dr.
Tugwell for example. With the drought of last year and the
dust storms of this spring in his mind, he told an audience not
far from here that in another generation the Mississippi Valley
might be a desert. At the present writing there is more pros
pect of it being an inland sea.

In spite of the weather, there has been a virtual epidemic
of ccntennaries around this part of the state, and all, Ave are
told, have been successful. One at Pecatonica, one at Rockton,
another at Elgin and last year Rockford started the ball rolling.
One hundred years have passed since these towns were founded,
but like individuals, born at the same time and growing up in
identical environment, how different their fortunes and their
fates. Rockford alone has made a striking success materially,
from a ford and a blacksmith shop to an industrial city of
!)0,(100 people. In a century Pecatonica and Rockton have scarcely
changed. Elgin comes second to Rockforo in this part of the
stnte, a great dairy center and with one of the largest watch
factories in the country. Just why some villages grow into
cities and others with equal sometimes greater natural ad
vantages, don't, it. is not easy to say. In municipal as with indi
vidual success there is probably a tremendous element of

DON'T DRINK AND SHOW YOL'R FANATICISM
Had a talk here recently entitled
"Drink and Show Your Ignorance."
It brought 68 letters, 61 of them ex

and asking God's
blessing on me.
7 of them ex

tion and disgust

all sorts of sad
fates. But I waa
merely trying to
teach what ef
fecta alcohol .as
on health, which
ha nothing to
do with heaven
or hell.
I lie wile of an Inebriate writes:
"I wish more were written on the
terrible racts about drink. No one
knows the damage It doea unless
they have a victim In the family.
I've often thought I'd like to offer
my husband as an example to show
young people what It does to a per
son, not only himself or herself but
to others. I agree with Hitler that
every chronic drinker ought to be
sterilized. My husband used to say
he'd like to tell every young person
to let the stuff alone before It gets
yu. He has seemed to wish earnestly
to atop it, having even taken cures
without avail. I Just feel sick when
I see so many young people going
to taverns, road houses, night clubs,
cocktail places . . , but what are hu
man lives the country needs the al
mighty dollar."
As for sterilizing chronic drinkers.
who shall draw the line between oc
casional, moderate or social drink
ing? Why. in Yankeeland, we can't
even make up our minds what
drunkenness or Intoxication Is it de
pends on how much Jack or pull the
culprit has at his command when
he gets Into trouble, not on the
quantity of alcohol he has con
sumed. The craving for drink It not trans
mitted, but the mental deficiency
with weak will power, weak character
that expresses itself In Intemperance
la Inherited. Many alcoholics are also
defectives and transmit the mental
defect to children. Alcoholism In
either parent la a predisposing cause
of epilepsy In the offspring. Epilepsy,
feeble-mlndedness, insanity, alcohol
ism, narcotic addiction. These de
fets when transmitted to children
are not necessarily transmitted true
to type, but as Indira ted. a defect
which manifests itself as alcoholism
or epilepsy in the parent may mani
fest itself as feeble-mlndedness or
insanity In the offspring, or vice
versa. One reason why so many young
people frequent drinking places is
the failure of parents to exact a !
pledge from son or daughter, and In I
turn the failure of moral or religious
advisers of parents to urge them to '
their side. But they dull their
points to me in perpetually writing
In terms of triple classification. No.

first consideration in appraising any

keyed real Americans to a different

America doesn't want "soclel secur
ity" half sa much aa an unlimited
chance to get to the top.
Communism, as a whole, strikes
me as lacking the saving grace of
humor. Corollary to the fact that
Marxism Isn't a politico-economic
cause. It's a form of religion, and.
as with some religions, fosters fa
naticism. Who shoved me up on this

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Inferiority Complex.
I wish I could tell that young
woman who asked for a pamphlet
about Inferiority complex how I got
over mine. Dally reading of the
New Testament. When we gain
glimpse of the Immensity of effort
required of us, what la right or
wrong In every living person., we
are not continually in fe'ir of that
unknown quality. We know whom to
respect and why. Mrs. L. S. D.
Answer Thank you. Perhaps the
young woman will see this and reat
the Book, you recommend. I keep
no memoranda of correspondenci
It wonld be an appalling task, and
besltes most corresponnenta would
prefer not to be filed. I think. So I
can rarely recall the Identity of a
correspondent, once I have answered
his letter.
Myopia.
I am a crane operator. Plant phy
sician found my eyes poor, sent me
to oculist, who fitted me with glasses,
which are fine for long distance
seeing, but they make things bulge
at me up to 60 feet. Is myopia
curable or not? I'd do almost any
thing to get rid of the glasses.
S. S.
Answer Probably bl -focal lenses
would give you better results the
lenses you have for distant vision,
and plain lenses or none for near
vision. Myopia Is a change in trie
shape of the eye and. there la no
cure for it.
The Pill Obsession.
Is It true that you claim no harm
la done by neglecting the bowel ac
tion for a week . . ? c. R. H.

you are a vlctfm of that habit send

Arthur Ruhl
Arthur Brown Ruhl. special writer
and dramatic critic for the New York
Herald Tribune, died at hla home In
Jackson Heights, Queens, New York,
Friday. June 7. after contracting
pneumonia while attending the open
ing of The Players' revival of "Seven
Keys to Baldpate" May 27. He v.&s
taken to Rockford, 111. to hla birth
place and was burled In the family
plot there Wednesday, June 12.
Mr. Ruhl, author of several books,
had been with the New York Trib
une Intermittently since 1013 as
drama critic, foreign correspondent
and roving reporter on foreign affairs.
For many years before he had been a
special writer for Collier's Weekly.
He was widely known for hla Indi
vidual style, which waa the result of.
hla practice of covering a story dis
passionately and later writing of It
objectively at his leisure.
For the greater part of the last ten
years he wrote about the theatre In
New York, and hla column, "Second
Nights," contained carefully written
reviews and analyses of shows pre
pared after the, excitement of first
nights had vanished. In the same
way, his foreign correspondence and
special articles rarely were "spot
news." but rather were accounts writ
ten on second -thought.
Mr. Ruhl, who was 68 years old, was
educated at Harvard where besides
starring as a distance runner, he serv
ed on the staffs of the Lampoon and ,
Advocate. He received his A. B. degree
there in 1899 and Immediately came
to New York, where he Joined the
staff of the Evening Sun as a repor
ter. He remained with that paper five
years covering general assignments,
Including police headquarters, and
also wrote short stories In hla spare
time.
Hla fiction attracted wide public
attention and he Joined the editorial
staff of Collier's Weekly, with which
he remained until '1913. During his
nine years with that magazine he
travelled all over the world on spe
clal assignments, and following a dip
lomatic Jaunt to South America with
the EUhu Root Mission he published
a book on Latin-American problems
entitled "The Other Americans."
For a time In 1913 he worked for
The Outlook, and after covering the
disastrous Dayton flood for that
magazine accepted the position of
drama critic of the New York Trib
une. Although drama critic. Mr. Ruhl
was called upon In April 1914 to cov
er one of the biggest straight news
stories In years, the historic electro
cution at Sing Sing of the four men
who murdered Herman Rosenthal, the
gambler Several reporters for the
Tribune had turned down the as
signment declaring they didn't have
the nerve. One reporter at the exe
cution did faint, and had to be car
ried out of the death chamber.
Mr. Ruhl took the assignment.
however, and after the electrocutions.
which took place between 5:44 a. m.
and 6:17 a. m.. filed a lead that was
used In putting out one of the latest
morning extras In the history of the
Tribune. He had filed a long detailed
description of the scene at 2:30 In
the morning.
Mr. Ruhl went to central Europe
as war correspondent for Collier's in
1915, and to Russia In 1916 and 1917.
He was war correspondent for the
magazine in Prance in 1918 and in
1919 he visited the Baltic states for
't. There, In 1920: he became corres
pondent for the New York Evening
Post. He was Berlin correspondent for
the Herald Tribune In 1925 and 1926,
and while there married Zlnalda Ynk
ovnchlkoff. an exile from Soviet Rus
sia and a member of the former land
ed aristocracy.
Returning to New York he rejoined
the drama department of the Herald
Tribune, and while not writing his
column, "Second Nights." spent much
time on special assignments, many of
them In the Latin American coun
tries. He was the author of "A Break In
Training." 1906: "A History of Track
Athletics In America." 1905; "Second
Nights." 1914; "Antwerp to Gainpoll."
1916; "White Nights." 1917; "New
Masters of the Baltic," 1921; "With
the American Relief Administration
in Russia." 1922: "The Central Amer
