A cordial invitation is extended

Writer Savs In Her Book “The
Invisible Gods,’’ Creating
Mach Comment
CHICAGO, March 13.—/'The mod
ern woman—there is no such ani
mal,” calmly states Edith Franklin
Wyatt, Chicago novelist, whose latest
book, “The invisible Gods,” is caus
ing much comment.
‘Woman’s occupation and way of
living,” Miss Wyatt explains, “may
change; she never does.
“To hear maMy people talk, we’d
•be forced.to conclude an entirely new
species of woman has been evolved.
I “True, woman formerly limited
J her activities to the home; now
economic conditions and modern
standards have forced her into busi
ness. Cohditlohs have changed, not
individual..
■ “F’or instance, we’ve always had
some version of the ‘vamp.’ ,
j “In the nineties she frizzed her
i hair, chewed gum, wore flamboyant
j clothes; today she pulls her hair
back, sticks to dark clothes, smokes
. cigarets.
“But she’s the same girl.
: “We’ve had ‘flappers’ always, but
j they haven’t always bobbed their hair
land worn short skirts.
“You can’t find a type today that
. hadn’t its counterpart in Tutankh
amen’s time.
| “The average woman always has
1 devoted her lite to caring for others
i —children, old people have lightened
No amount of labor-saving devices or
i of advanced thinking have lightened
I her real burden.’’
I Every woman’s problem, Miss
Wyatt believes, is the adjustment of
I her life to the demands made upon
j it. She must calculate just how
; much of her time belongs to others,
j how much to herself, how much to
I pleasure, how much to human ser
i vice. It was Eve’s problem, too, she
| holds.
i “And the successful and happy
. woman,” she adds, “is the one whose
' sense of values leads her to the cor
rect solution.” •

NEW YORK, March 13.—More

RISKS HIS LIFE
TINIES FOB SCIENCE
Dr. Herradora Says “Extermi
nate Bacteria And Keep
Clean
BY EDWARD THIERRY
NEA Service Staff Writer
NEW YORK. March 13.—Although
he has already risked his life for
science 28 times, Dr. Marco Aurelh
Herradora, noted therapeutist and
biochemist, expects to live to be :
hundred.
For that, the scientist predicts,
will soon be the normal span, of life
for those who fulfill these two con
ditions:
“Exterminate bacteria—and keep
clean.”
As a result of many risks in test
ing drug combinations in his war
against bacteria, Dr. Herradora has
perfected many formulas to destroy
or check dsease.
“Modern therapeutics are diminish
ing disease,” he said. “But that is
only half the battle. It is not enough
to cure disease if _wt would live to be
100 years old; prevention is neces
sary, and the surest way is by clean
liness. Baths, and more baths—
means less accumulation of bacteria.
There will always be bacteria, but
we have greater protection against
it.”
Vivisection is a means Dr. Herra
dora uses in his lain ratdry experi
ments—but the final test of a drug
formula is always made on himself!
“My records,” he said, “show that
I have used 7981 animals, including
guinea pigs, rabbits, white rats, dogs
and monkeys. But before a formula
is perfect I mtist know how it acts
on a human being. So I take it my
self —and I watch the symptoms.
“Many times I have nearly lost my
life in these scientific tests. Twenty
eight times I facpd death. But 1
survived to perfect the drug com
binations. For 16 years I have been
doing this in the fight for human
life. It does not matter, for there is
no sentiment in science.”
* Once Dr. Herradora took 216
grans of sodium fiodine, he said, in
an experiment for a rheumatism
formula. For 12 hours he could
neither move nor walk, but was con
scious of everything going on around
him. Another time he was complete
ly paralyzed for two weeks after
trying on himself a formula contain
ing quinine extracted direct from the
tree bark.
Bills for animals for experimenta
tion have reached $30,000 in the past
few years. Guinea pigs cost 90 cents
each, white rats 45 cents, rabbits
from $1.50 to $2, dogs $5, monkeys

“FATTY” HIERS MAKES
HIT ON BROADWAY
NEW YORK, March 13.—Broad
way has “discovered” Valter Hiers.
If anything, even so bulky an object
as Hiers, is to make any impression
, on Broadway it must be swung by
the tail and flung plop into the mid
dle of Times Square.
One New York paper says of “Mr.
Billings Spends His Dime,” Hiers’
first starring picture, “It brings out
Mr. Hiers as a far funnier man than
we ever expected him to be.”
Hiers was just as funny three
years ago in a featured role in “It
Pays to Advertise.” And when he
; and T. Roy Barnes were through
sharing the honors of “Is Matrimony
a Failure?” there was little or none
left for the others in the cast.
There is no comparison between
Fatty Hiers and Fatty Arbuckle.
1 Hiers has always been a polite com
‘ edian. Arbuckle was primarily a
slap-stick buffoon. He was in his
wrong element in long feature come
dies.
The only difference between Hiers
’ now and three years ago is that he
■ now is technically a star. With the
; public he has been one for some
months.
John Billings, haberdashery clerk,
falls in love with a girl he sees on the
, screen. He overstays his lunch hour
' and is fired. He spends his last dime
for a cigar that bears the screen
- beauty’s lace on the band. Inside
: that particular band is a code mes
; sage upon which a revolution in a
, southern country depends. Mr .Bil
lings receives a considerable sum for
the information in the cigar band and
i then becomes involved in the rqvolu-
I tion.
’ • This story makes “Mr. Billings
. i Spends His Dime” verv light, but
i worthwhile, entertainment for the
evening.
