Mixed Bathing Ir Urged In Paris To Encourage Marriage By Mlnott Saunders, (I'. P. Staff Correspondent) Paris, Oct. 22. — (United Prpss.) — Mixed bathing, •<> encourggo marriages and Increaso tho birth-rate, is advocated for "poor, old-fashioned prudish Paris," by M. Rene Friquet. a member of the Municipal Council. Prudish Is not the word generally used to describe the “Gay City," but the fact remains that, in quiet’walks of life outside the Montmartre and Montparnasse, there is quite a differ<■lll Paris than that lighter side known to tourists. Tho city regulations do not allow mixed bathing in the municipal swimming baths, andj M._ Frhinet is causing a mild sensation among his puritanical colleagues by deman.ling that regulations should forthwith be made to bring Paris up to date in this respect. M. Friquet envisages all sorts of blessings from permission for the strong and th ( > fair mingle at least one day a week in the municipal baths, lie point* out that this should be a natural sequal to the recent creation of a marriage club where young men ami women are brought together at dances and social functions for 1 lie express purpose of getting acquainted with serious matrimonial intentions. Many romances, li» says, would grow up between lonely men and maidens shivering on the brink of the municipality’s cold water, and blossom and bear fruit in happy marriages if tkp city fathers could get over their prudish ideas. He does not believe that young people who attend modern revues where nudity is featured will be greatly shocked or morally injured by mixed bathing. v —o W. L. Bryan To Direct Christmas Sea! Sale Indianapolis, Did, Oct 22 — The 1925 sale of Tuberculosis Christmas Seals in Indiana wi'l be directed by Dr. W'dliam Lowe Bryan, president of Indiana University, as Seal Sale chairman for the state. Dr. Bryan accepted his nomination to head the state wide seal sale committee today in a letter to Murray A. Auerbach, executive secretary of the Indiana Tuberculosis Association, which has headquarters here. Associated with Dr. Bryan in the direction of the seal sale in ninetytwo Hoosier counties will'be a list of la rsons ihsuiuumjL. losis and other public health work throughout the slate of Indiana. Mr. Auerbach announced today that the National Tuberculosis Association. under which the Indiana Tuberculosis Association operates with ninety-two county associations in stale, has forwarded forty-five million Christmas Seals for distributing to the counties. Indiana has led all states in the Mississippi Valley conference for the past five years in the Strengthens Weak Eyes Old fashioned hydrastis, boric, etc., as mixed in Lavoptik eye wash, strengthens eyes and relieves any case weak, strained or sore eyes.

sale of seals, and this year expects to increase the per capita sale ( throughout the state. A goal of ten centgi per capita has been set by officers of the State Association. Dr. Bryan, accepting nomination as chairman of the annual Seal Sale in the state, a position he has held several previous years, said that the winning fight against the White Plague, that has been made possible by the sale of Christmas Seals in the past twenty years In America, has impressed him with the ability of organized anti-disease work to eventually eradicate man's most dreaded enemy. "MULons of_ lives are to be saved .'or greater usefulness by the steady work of disease prevention and cure that la being carried on in counties, Rates and nations in the name of the Tuberculosis Christmas Seal,” he said. “It is an honor and a very deep gratification to me to accept the 'lomination of Seal Sale chairman for Indiana in 1925. Gradually the White Plague is being brought under control through scientific, educational methods. In twenty years deaths from the dreaded enemy of the world have been cut in halt. Apparently mankind eventually is to overcome this, his most persistent, physical enemy- In Indiana the progress made by the thousands of volunteer workers against tuberculosis, guided by such agencies as the state and county associations, has been rapid and consistent. The state’s death rate in 1914. when organized work against the diseese begen, was 145 8 per 100,000. In 1924 the rate was but 84 per 100,001). Such a record stands by itself as proof that the Christmas Seal is winning its sturdy fight. This year the fight is to be broadened in many ways. I am sure that the citizenship of Indiana will respond even more generously than in the past to the goal es the Christmas Seal. It is a previlege for all of us to help push back, this, our enemy." o Former Illinois Governor . Calls Prohibition Failure Chicago, Oct. 22.—(United Press) — i —The American system of prohibition is a flat failure, Edward F. Dunne.

"1 saw less intoxication and public disturbance arising from unrestricted [ drinking in Europe than we oxper-' ienco every day in Chicago," Dunne said.

The work will be done through an Illinois organization which seeks reorganization of the > democratic party in Illinois. / Q — —.
