FAMED BRITISH SCIENTIST WILL LECTURE HERE Bertrand Russell to Speak at Open Forum; Debated With Durant. Bertrand Russell noted English scholar and scientist, will come to Kirshbaum Community Center Sunday for the opening lecture on the Open Forum series under auspices of the Jewish Community Center Association. , Russell will arrive from Boston, where he has just debated with Dr. Will Durant. Throngs filled Symphony Hall to hear these famous men debate the question, “Is Democracy a Failure?” and at the conclusion both men received flattering applause. Dr. Durant, small in stature and dressed in evening clothes, his hair dark with just a strand of gray here and there, and with a small black mustache and imperial, took the view that democracy is a failure. Dr. Russell, a special professor at Harvard and now on the lecturing staff of the British Institute of Philosophical Studies, is a man of medium height, of rather square build, with silvery hair and black piercing eyes, declared that the danger in electing only educated men and men experts in the economics and finance is that they would be apt to pass laws which would neither be wanted nor understood by the great mass of the people. Democracy Test Simple “My test of democracy would be a simple one,” said Russell. “Are the Democratic countries of the world, taking the population right, happier? Are they more intelligent, more progressive than the undemocratic countries? And when you take that broad basis I cannot see how anyone can question the fact that your country and mine also are among the happier countries of the world. “If you compare the happiness of the average citizen in your country with the happiness of the average citzen of past times, or of undemocratic countries, it is hardly possible to resist the conclusion that democrarcy has been a contributing factor in the general distribution of welfare. No people are as happy as they would like to be, but they are happier now than they were in former times. “Democracy has certain very great merits. It is in the first place the educational merit, and that is an enormous one. Do you suppose that if in this country you had a government of the best people—and by the best people, I mean the five per cent, who have the most money—there would be anything like the money spent upon education that is now spent upon it? Another Great Merit "The second great merit is that it prevents certain forms of gross cruelties. In all the cases that history ever has shown us or can show us at the present day, where one set of men has the power to govern another set of men, those who will have the power will exert the grossest cruelty they can use. If you are

TAKEFOR A ■Ejjpci Drink Lots of Water All Day Long to Keep Kidneys Flushed. Too much rich food forms acids which excite and overwork the kidneys in their efforts to filter it from the system. Flush the kidneys occasionally to relieve them like you relieve the bowels, removing acids, waste and poison, else you may feel a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, the stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get irritated, obliging one to get up two or three times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids and flush off the body’s urinous waste, begin drinking water. Also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine and bladder disorders disappear. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been 'used for years to help clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts is inexpensive and makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which millions of men and women take now and then to help prevent serious kidney and bladder disorders. By all means, drink lots of good water every day.—Advertisement.

Bu Times Special • DELPHI, Ind., Nov. 4.—First degree murder is the charge brought against Lloyd Kimble, 47, bootlegging farm hand, in an indictment returned late Thusrday by the Carroll County grand, jury. Kimble is charged with having slain Daniel Sink, 74, farmer recluse, in his home near Burrows, Ind., the morning of Aug. 24 and having set fire to the house in an effort to conceal the crime.

She said she and Kimble had been drinking when they went to Sink’s home early on the morning of Aug. 24. There, she said, after a quarrel, Kimble struck the old man on the head with a buggy spring, poured coal oil on the floor and the victim’s clothing and set fire to the house. Kimble protests his innocence. Sons of Daniel Sink have employed former Judge Charles R. Pollard to assist Carroll County’s youthful prosecutor, Joseph T. Ives, 24, in the case.

The old-time mixture of sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmother’s recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advantage. Nowadays, though, w r e don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product fer only 75 cents, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.—Advertisement.

See that chimney projects beyond highest point of building and neighboring structures. This will help draft and not annoy neighbors. How to Clean Chimney Use one of these three effective methods of cleaning soot from chimney: About twice a month drop in an old dry cell battery, two or three tin cans, or double handful of salt. This causes a chemical action which tends to loosen soot, allowing it to pass out through the chimney. Buchanan advised property owners to clean soot on days when atmospheric conditions are such that smoke will go straight up. ‘Do not try it on wash days,” he advised.

HOW TO STDDY 1 COURSES HELP! I. lI,STUDENTS Psychology Department Head Reports Higher Grades. Bu United Press BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. 4. The college “grind” who is compelled to study long into the night or “flunk” his classes, soon may have his labors lightened If “How to Study” courses, such as have proven so successful at Indiana University, are introduced into other schools. Such Is the report of Dr. William F. Book, head of the department of psychology, after tests with a number of such classes. Students taking the course have been able not only to earn more credits per semester, but also to improve the quality of their work. Whole classes have improved their grades as much as C.SC credit points on the average, and one individual actually increased his grade from a C to an A minus. “How to Study” courses for freshmen especially, should be an Important part of every university curriculum,” Dr. Book insists. He explains the purpose of such classes is to teach the student how to plan his studies efficiently so that he will lose no time. A definite standard of efficiency measurement shows that by taking the course, students have been able to increase the efficiency lof their work from 76 to 96.3 per icent in one class and from 84 to 198.1 per cent in another. “Efficient habits, however, cannot Ibe incidentally acquired,” Book i points out. They must be established i by getting the students definitely interested in making further and continued improvement in this direction and by giving them the encouragement and help needed."
