Not entirely certain of the date, but think our laBt visit there was for a sunrise breakfast, around the year 1905. . At any rate the Claremont was a popular place in the Gay Nineties, and continued to be until the Depression liquidated it, along witn most other "stoDg" along the prised to find it i now a part of Greater New York's marvellous park system, and is one of the many outstanding- achievements of the famed Robert Moses who appropriately has led Father Gotham out of the fetid wilderness of steel and stone, into a promised land of fresh air and greenery ... of the finest park system in the civilized world. It is a long motor trip from down-town New York, so we were late for dinner, but many were still lingering at the tables on the terrace overlooking the Hudson river, and open air dancing was going on, full blast. We were lucky to get a table on the edge of the parapet, there was a breeze, though not a cool one, and it was lights in Paradise Park, over boats plying up and down the Roosevelt's yacht passed down from Poughkecpsie, while whistles tooted and searchlights until the next morning the president himself was aboard going out to sea for a week-end at some yacht races. We motored up through Central Park, and back on Riverside Drive via the famous Grant Tomb. We were fortunate enough to have a native New Yorker at the wheel of his own car, to provide transportation and the way he around 50 miles an hour, was While passing Grant Tomb, tio couples were plainly in evidence, and our New York "guide", observed that a certain Frenchman, on his first visit to the burial place of one of America's greatest military heroes, gave one glnnee around, then snapped his fingers, and asked for a table for five I The national tennii championships have started over at Forest Hills, Long Island, and are on this week, we decided again to ignore the heat, and have look, at two of the greatest amateur ranks, Donald Budge of Los Angeles, and Baron Gottfried von Cramra of Germany. " . Both were seeded of course it was interesting to see how their temperaments and techniques. Budge came on first, his muscular young man in short the name of Winslow. The latter naturally enoueh wns verv norvous, at the start, so muoh racquet. His stalwart little body and his shorta, spotlessly white, but his raoquet kept slipping in his wet hand. To prevent this, he proceeded to pat his hand on the spots of dirt that appear in the turf, then wiped his hand on the right leg of his shorts. As a result it wasn't long before that portion of his costume, was brown and caked with mother earth, so he had to find a wiping-off area higher up However, he did his best, and grabbed off nearly a dozen games in the 3 straight sets. The Baron's young opponent, A. L. Jarvis of Williams col lege on the other hand, showed no signs of nervousness, and instead of using hi trouser legs he carried a towel at his waist. He was as cool as an Eskimo pie from the start, and went his own sweet way, obviously not at all impressed either by the fame or the title of his distinguished opponent, It was amusing to see him Bfter every change of oourt, make a bee line for the chair, near the referee's post and plop down in it, as he grabbed a Turkish towel and proceeded to mop his neck and face. In doing so he always had to turn his Wk on the baron, who never sat down during the match, but with a brief mop of his brow, walked leisurely from court to court, often having' to wait for the young U. S. oollegian, to get on his mark. We have an Idea this wasn't strictly speaking according to Hoyle, but if our judgment of Jarvis is correct, he is the American type, that will never be greatly concerned with draw ing room red tape. He was in there to do his durndest, and if he found any shortcuts, not oontrary to the rule book, he was not going to pass them nj The Baron like his U. S. rival, won in straight sets, but he had to work much harder, and at one point it looked as if he might drop a set. This young boy from Williams, has a real oannonball service, scoring at least a dozen aces in the match. In faot he seldom scored in any other way. In the final set, be won his service at love, then broke into the baron's service and for the first time was in the lead at 2-0. The gal leries started to wake up but it proved to be only a brief burst for Jarvis started to net the first shot of his serve, and his second ball, merely a weak spinner, the German ace could easily handle. However we shall at this point make a prediction about young Jarvis. He is going to be heard from in the tennis world, aud we shall not be surprised if he eventually becomes "TOPS". For as we dope it out he has what it takes, a wonderful physique (he's tall and rangy), a game fundamen tally sound, and th "killing instinot." (It might be noted in this connection that only a few years ago, Donald Budge was playing here at Forest Hills, the role now played by Jarvis a promising kid to give the big boys a fast workout.) That "killing instinct" is particularly important, and we should say that explains why red-headed Budge, is at the top of world tennis and Baron von Cramm isn't. Transfer their respective temperaments, and their positions would be reversed. In fact we would say the German star, is a deeper student of the game, and more' perfect stylist, than the Californian, but he lacks fire and fiijht. In the last analysis, it is probably merely a matter of glandular development. R. W. R. LEWIS FARM PLAN WILL MEET SNUB WASHTNOTON, Sept. . (API J.

American version of the same ob- f'wwajsT1? servatlon three generations from shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves. Poet Dryden expreHaed It in the line "and seldom three descents continue good." Still an other poet, Wat 'Bingham, render ed l in rhyme: "wnat s iu - go scarce to a third heir descends, nor wrongful booty meets with proa perous ends." It seems that those who haven't noble ancestry to boast about are In cllned to sneer at Inheritance. On the other hand those who have It generally have nothing else to boast about. Transmlssable or heritable char acters or traits that tend to Im prove the race were called "eugenic" by Sir Francis Gal ton, and from Gal ton's term came the now familiar study of eugenics. Gallon's theory was that the individual's parents each contribute an average of 00 per cent . of the total Inherited char acters, each grandparent 35 per cent. and each great-grand -pare at, 12 Mi per cent, and so on as far back as you have a mind to go. Gregor Mendel, an Austrian monK, who was born In 1623 (the same date as the birth of Gal ton In Eng land) experimented In his garden, breeding peas, and out of this re search developed the now famous Mendeltan theory or "law" of in heritance. According to Mendel's theory or law the protoplasm of the germ-cells, the parent cells, that Is, the ovum or egg contributed by the female parent aud the spermatazoon or fertilising element contributed by the male parent, contains the deter mining factors of height, color and other characters, these determining factors being called "genes." Eugenlsts conceive the genes as existing In pairs one of each pair coming from the mother, one from the father In series like the beads of a necklace,' In the chromatin ma terial In the nucleus of the germ- cell. The genes are immortal. Thru them Ufa goes on and on thru countless generations. Alas, these cunning little genes In the nucleus or heart of the im mortal germ-plasm, the fertilized ovum, do not give rise to absolutely unvarying characteristics In the de scendant.

The elevated spun overhead so long be clouding it t& likely to come down, and there are many who believe the thoroughfare may become one of the spryest of rejuvenated streets. Sixth has, for the most of Its exist ence, hsd to battle with the "rotten speck" that so often destroys the barrel of apples. First, the Infsmotis Haymarket dance dive, then the blowzy rows of barrel houses and later the iniquities of Bryant Pork, which has bfun called "the psycho pathic, pasture." Some think another Broadway will arise there. About the only old touch to Sixth avenue is to b found among the venerable booksellers, many of whom have clung to the street during Its downavrd gradations. Book lovers who browse there find an old-fashioned courtesy white haired men with philosophic twinkle who love their dog-eared books. An old book shop Is the only place I know made attractive by dust and cobwebs.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Myasthenia Tour reply to my inquiry about myasthenia when I wrote a year ago. At the time my husband was receiv ing glycerin. Later he was given pros tlgmln by mouth. In four months he has improved wonderfully on this. He takes two proatlgmln tablets three times a day. This new remedy should be a great boon to sufferers from myasthenia. Mrs. W. J.
