CGESrJT KNOW HOW TO LOVE Gilbert Frankau Believes the Young Woman of Today I Not Capable , of e. Ton hare to watch the modern dance to see the modern girl at her most Regard her carefully, this bepalnted, bepowdered, b manicured product of our beetle age, She as she circles the ballroom. dances emotionally, but her emotions are for the rhythm and the music, not for the mere male, her partner. Even in a mans arms she is as nearly sexless as the ladies of the Lysistrata, Gilbert Frankau writes In the Forum. Regarding her thus, one cannot help answering the question which stands at the head of this article In the most emphatic negative. No! Give her all her good qualities, her poise, her efficiency, her Intelligence and you will still be forced to admit that judging her superficially tlie modem girl Is not caimble of a great and enduring love. To begin with, she Is too selfish, too too set on the pursuit of wlmt she considers pleasure) to abandon herself to that self-sacr- b fice which is love at Its best. And then, perhaps, she is too wise. Slyself, I am and have always been, a strong supporter of the civil conIn tract matrimony. Matrimony, after all. Is however much sentimental, middle-agefogeys like myself may like to regard It as a pure love affair a legal undertaking. And I think that It Is high time for the young man of today to understand that Ills legal undertaking when he marries a or an Independent young woman Is not confined purely and simply to bousing her. The modern woman, you see, is something tame than a mere domesticated pet. She requires her leisures, her pleasures and, more perhaps even than these, her full partnership rights. g. d STARLIGHT HEAT SPECTRUM Scientist of Smithsonian Institution How It May Da Determined.

Tlie bright star Capeila. which la very similar to our own sun In Ita spectrum, was found to furnish the equivalent of one horsepower to an area on the earth approximately equal to tlie state of Mianesotu. But tills prominent star Is feeble compared with our sun. which is equal to a hundred billion CYpellas and sends down on twenty square feet heat equal to a horsepower. On tlie whole earth Cnpellus heat equals 500 horsepower, und as all tlie stars together equal nixt Capelins, this would amount to one quarter million horsepower over the whole earth from tlie stars ulone. 100-inc- h Scottish Estate Being Sold.
