New York.—woman gradually j returning to a primitive .state. Are. her clothes, her Txibbed hair, herj costume Jewelry with its large viv idly colored necklaces, her facial make-up but indications of her re- i versal to savagery? Of course there are a great many carping critics who will loudly de clare that woman is as savage to day as she ever was, even in prime val days. But there is one man who Claims to have completed a striking' analogy between modern woman and her primitive sister and who offers plenty of proofs for his assertions. He is Frederick A. Mitchel-Hedges. | noted British explorer and student of the American Indian. His ex plorations and adventures are noted not only among laymen but among scientists the world over and even the most modern of modern women must listen to him with respect if not with interest. Mltchell-Hedges very wisely re-' serves judgment on his findings He is vastly interested, however, about his discovery that highly civilized women are quite plainly reverting to the habits of primitive women. He paints a picture in vivid colors of the present lay woman with her bobbed and often fuzzy hair, cupld’s bow lips and cheeks in glowing car mine, exposed knees . . , well they were until a year ago, anyway ... . Intensely vain, athletic, and few clothes to hamper her movements. And now listen to the specifications of a primitive girl: Dusky—remem ber when we too had the sun-tan last year?—bobbed hair, sometimes fuzzy, face painted, lips reddened, few if any clothes to hamper run ning and dancing. And vain, Just as vain as any beautiful showgirl. Quite a shock, Isn’t it, this deadly parallel. The explorer cites the Indian women to further annotate his con tention that modem woman is re verting back to a savage state. When the Indian woman is at the transi tion state between girlhood and womanhood, she has her heir crop ped close to her head, thus her world knows that Miss Indian is of marriageable age—our counterpart of a debutante, as it were. Incidentally, the close-crop ped style of hairdress is ultra pop ular with the college girl and the professional woman. The primitive woman discarded clothing, her nudeness was evidence of her primitive state, just as it is among savage races today. And civ ilized woman is going back to the self-same idea, wearing as few clothes as she possibly can. Having emerged from the swaddling clothes of the fashions that typified the Victorian era, it doesn’t look as though she will ever thus burden herself again, even if she has re turned to longish skirts. When she wants to, she will again ask for freedom of the knees. And now comes the most strik ing analogy of all, the demand of the civilized woman for complete emancipation.- Mitchell-Hedges tells of many Indian tribes,whose wom en choose their own mates. These women take their'chosen husband to their home and he is never allowed to do a thing unless wifie gives the order. There 'are lots of highly civ ilized women-who although they would not admit it—would regard such a marriage as ideal. Soon Mitchell-Hedges Is going back to Central America, when he hopes to find still further evidence linking Miss Modernity with her primitive sister; perhaps, after his utterances, he will feel safer there, although, who knows, some of the more primitive women might take violent exception at being compared to their up-to-date sisters, especially If they are ever shown pictures of a night club.

Scientists Subject To Diseases, Said Atlanta. Ga.—Thinkers and lead ers of modern civilization are more subject to diseases of the oody than are other classes, Dr. George W. Crile, of Cleveland, told the South eastern Surgical congress here. "The Kinetic System and Its Con trol" was the subject of Dr. Crile, who aroused interest in the scien tific world recently by an announce ment that he had been able to de velop living cell tissue artificially. "Our leaders and thinkers ore driven to more activity by a highly developed frontal lobe and are sub ject to high blood pressure, goiter and other ailments. Man is In a sense the victim of his own civiliza tion,” the scientist said. "Man’s superiority over beings of the lower order Is in the develop ment .of this higher organ. The ani mals are superior to us in sight, smell, strength, fleetness and in many other respects. The irental lobe is the dominating part of the entire kinetic system and the rise of this relative new comer in the physical make. up. of map ha$ driv en him to incessant activity."

Washington.— Will this be the next chapter In the lives of three Inter esting women who have just finish ed their terms as members of the house of representatives? Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick, Mrs. Pearl Old field and Mrs. Katherine Langley have closed their political desks, thus leaving the field to but six women representatives. For two of them, at least, It can be prophesied that they have spok en their exit lines In the strange show that Is congress. Mrs. Pearl Peden Oldfield, petite, gentle, In tensely feminine, Is grateful to the people of Arkansas who elected her to fill the unexplred term of her husband, the late William Oldfield. In her work, she has sought sur cease from the grief that his death brought her. Besides b desire to return to her home and take up the domestic duties that are still important to aome women, Mrs. Oldfield nas evidenced a dislike for the publicity that women In congress invariably receive. Mrs. Langley; who was defeated for re-election to congress in the tenth Kentucky district, played ■ quite a part In political Washing ton. She was the first woman mem ber of congress to be appointed to the committee on committees, and in this position succeeded Congress man John M. Robinson, who was elected to the senate. It has been In timated that Mrs. Langley Is quietly laying her plans for a re-election campaign And St Is easy to believe that parting from her mahogany de'k was, for her. a wistful moment. What will be the political future of the dynamitic, vivid, forceful Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick? As Illinois congresswoman-at-large, she was an interesting figure in political Wash ington. The recent dramatic cam paign she waged for senatorial hon ors against “Ham” Lewis will not be soon forgotten.
