I Wife of College Professor Makes Interesting Observations
on the Subject.
“Kissing Is not n whim at all; It Is n part of our dally life.” says Mrs. Edward F. Buchner, wife of Dr. , Buchner of Johns Hopkins university, Baltimore, apropos of the edict of Pittsburgh university coeds. A number of Baltimore women regarded kissing ns a pretty serious proposition which should not nt all he considered in the light, frivolous fashion with which most people regard kissing, especially young people. Though the co-eds of the University of Pittsburgh and the Margaret Morrison school of Carnegie Tech have received the commendation of many for cutting out oscillatory demonstrations during high school days, they “started something" when they claimed that kissing is a "man's
whim.”
Mrs. Buchner says: "Kissing is not a whim at all; It is a part of our human life and Is born of an impulse of our natures to demonstrate affection. I most certainly do not approve of promiscuous kissing, and think tiiat tin- students who decided to slop the
practice are quite rigid. "Young folks should have
time so filled with school studies and activities that they would have no lime for such imnvklsluies.s. The wholesome, clean he.is of the day do not respect girls who allow unwar-
ranted liberties."

For months 1 am mill, many people on the lower east side have believed that one of the czar’s iluitglitcr-i escaped the bolslievikl. who would have murdered her, and munageil to get in New York. There is not an atom of known fuel to Justify this rumor, tint one of these days it may rise to the dignity of the tradition of the lost dauphin of Frunre writes Herbert
Corey in ti e Clllcngo News.
"Her old nurse saw her the other day." the girl who was belli" Involuntarily molded to my form in last night's Mihwny crush told her friend. "1 know their a girl who knows her old nurse. She
says there is no donhi of It."
The nurse talked wilh her. according to the s:ory. They met face to face on a Broadway ear anil at first the little princess tried to deny her Identity. I'.uti tins muse knew her and loved her too well, and so ihe czar's dnuutitor told her pitiful tale. She had bt on left for dead, hut a servant fnumi Hint a sp rk of life remained and .siiiU'_gled tier body out of the pit Into which Hie corpses of her father, the emperor of all the Itussitis, mid of tier mothc-, the czarina, and of her royal brother and sisters
