2. No, because beautiful women are admired by women as well as by men. If the physical were the chief element, then scarcely any woman would be thought beautiful by her own sex. But men and women are in remarkable agreement as to women they regard as beautiful, whether they be young women or grandmothers. Several scientific studies also have shown that when men rate the qualities that cause them to like or admire women, they place physical beauty far from the top cf the scale. 3. No. College deans everywhere have to face this problem. No satisfactory general answer has been found, but all agree against the secret marriage. One university is trying out the plan of persuading the parents on both sides to consent to the marriage of the young folk while their allowances are continued. If they are working their way, the problem is more difficult. Marriage problems among college students always should be talked over with the deans.

JAMES M. COX IS SLATED AS BERLIN ENVOY Ambassador Report Is Sequel to Parley With Farley. BY FREDERICK A. STORM United Press Staff Correspondent MIAMI, Fla., Feb. 11.—PresidentElect Franklin D. Roosevelt will appoint James M. Cox to the increasingly important embassy at Berlin, it was reported reliably here today. Reports that Cox would become ambassador to Germany followed a conference here of the 1920 presidential candidate with Democratic National Chairman James A. Farley. Robert Dunham of Chicago had been mentioned as a candidate for the German ambassadorship, but now he is believed to be the choice for assistant secretary of the treas- ; ury. Mr. Roosevelt, now fishing in the Bahamas, caught thirty small fish and several large ones Friday, but lest ’ one as big as a whale,’’ a radio message from Vincent Astor, owner of the Nourmahal, said. MOTOR CLUB TO FIGHT LICENSE TAX BOOST Further Diversion in Present Reve- ; nue to Be Opposed, Says Stoops. Resistance will be offered by the Hoosier Motor Club to attempts to increase license fees, gasoline tax, and make a further diversion in present revenue received from such sources, Todd Stoops, secretarymanager, said today. “Every day at the statehouse one i sees signs and hears rumors of raiding the motorist again for the benefit of the general fund to take care of the $3,000,000 deficit faced by the state for the fiscal year,” Stoops declared. Result of a straw vote taken among club members recently revealed an overwhelming majority in favor of establishing a at $3 license fee for all passenger cars and reduction of gasoline tax to 2 cents a gallon. Stoops said. Ninety-two per cent of those voting were against a further diversion in highway funds, and 81 per cent favoring a restoration to the state highway commission of funds diverted to counties, cities and towns in the special session of the legislature last summer.

Two Aged Friends of .‘Abe’ in Days Long Gone Tell of His Start. Historical appellation of Abraham Lincoln as the “rail splitter’’ is by accident rather than because of his devotion to farm work, according to two Indianapolis women, both now past 90, and in earlier days, friends of Lincoln and his family. From memories of the past, incidents in the life and the death of the Civil war President were recalled today by Mrs. Sarah Pearson, 90, of 930 Roache avenue, and Mrs. Eliza Myers, 93, of 2302 North Meridian street. Knowledge that his life might be taken because of his staunch opposition to “laws against the poor man,” was possessed by Lir.ioln some time in advance of his assassination, according to Mrs. Pearson. Knew Trouble Coming “Abe Lincoln was .killed because he was against such laws and his advisers were for them,” she declared today. “He knew he was in for trouble. He sat in our home and said that they would try to impeach him. “On one occasion, he said, ‘When laws like that are passed, the fire will be out in the kitchen stove and it will be hard to rekindle.’ “Pap helped Abe get his place in his first law office. Abe was like a member of our, own family. He called my parents ‘aunt and uncle,’ and would sit in our log house and j talk to us about his ambitions. “ ‘An ax is not my pal, Uncle Jim,’ he said to Pap,” Mrs. Pearson continued. “Books were what he wanted. He would chore about the house, but when It came time to cut down trees, or ‘sprout,’ he would run and hide. Got Job .for Abe “Pap knew O. B. Ficklen, who was a Charleston lawyer, and he got Abe a job driving for Ficklin and doing chores. Uncle Tommy Lincoln, Abe’s father, made Ficklin sign papers that he would give Abe an education. “Pap was on the jury in the first trial that Abe ever was in. Ficklen wrote out the case, and drilled Abe in it. I remember, -when my father came home, he told us that Abe had made a fine speech, “After that Abe began to plead law regularly. “The Lincoln family wasn’t poor, according to those times. They were like every one else. They had a little farm? and a yoke of oxen. Lived in Wagons “When the Lincoln settled at Goose Neck Prairie, the women and children lived in their wagons till the men could build houses for them. The houses had roofs made of boards which were not nailed, but weighted down. The windows were greased paper, and the doors had wooden hinges. Mrs. Eliza Myers, who will be 93, Feb. 24, was a seamstress In the home of Lincoln’s sister-in-law, a Mrs. Edwards, of Springfield. “Lincoln often visited here,” she said. “He always was good-natured; always friendly. Abraham Lincoln looked just like the pictures of him.

Mrs. Sarah Pearson

He was the friend of every’ one, and every one was his friend. “When his body was brought to Springfield for burial, after his assassination, all the big houses in Springfield were open to guests. Servants were kept busy taking rare of the wants of people who had come to see Abraham Lincoln, the people's friend.” LIVES PAID IN NOOSE BY 2JN MISSOURI One Dies on Same Gallows as Brother Did Year Ago.
