TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13 Theatricaj Notes ol Interest | j ANNETTE KELLfiRMANN. Tlie thousands of women who have seen Annette Kellermann, who comes to the Grand Theater today in the spec tacular pictorial production, “Neptune’s Daughter,” and who have heard Miss Kellermann referred to as “the perfect woman” have been axious to know what constitutes the ideal measurements for the female form. The standard meas urements are those of the Venus de Milo and Diana, Authorities have decided that the form of Venus is the perfect woman’s figure although the athletic woman follows more closely the lines of Diana. The following table comparing the measure ments of Annette Kellermann, Venus de Milo, and Diana, will show why the "diving Venus” has a right to the title, perfect woman:” Kellermann. Venus. Diana.

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE COUPON Interesting Subject Which Has Not Been Taken Up By Men tal Philosophers. “Why did the little mouse run up the clock?" and “How old is Anne?” are two questions that are not gen erally answered intelligently. A third question has threatened to join in making a puzzling trio. Many inter ested readers have asked, “Why the coupon?" Going back to the origin of the word Itself we find that coupon comes from the word couper, meaning cut. Let us take it in its broadest sense, to mean something to cut out and pre sent for dividends. This takes us back to the intended use of the original word. Then the true meaning of cou pon is a slip of paper or a certificate to be detached from a bond entitling the holder to some specified accommo dation. Therein lies the answer to the question, “Why the coupon?’ whtoh philosophers of mental science have failed to answer. The psychological inference is that readers consider The Herald a bond froh which they can detach a coupon entitling them to some specific thing of value. Indeed this is true, for in the present case one coupon will en title the holder to a copy of the first part of "The Nations at War” when accompanied by the small expense fee, which barely covers the cost of pro duction. Parts are issued every two weeks and the entire series will go to make up a complete story of the great war of Europe. Readers must realize that on such terms no profits can accrue, so the psychology of the coupon is easily explained. It is an assurance that the newspaper is presenting an un usual offer for the benefit of its read ers. in which everyone should partici pate. CITY SERIES GAMES Cubs 1i White Sox 3. Chicago.

IUNTONLOST II THE ACADEMY Cadets Added a Win to Record Yesterday by Defeating These High School Lads 37 to 0. • - The A. R. C. eleven invaded the enemy’s country yesterday, Warren ton, and were victorious in the first battle of the season there. The Warrenton High School war riors trained their heavy artillery on the cadets, getting a lead in the be ginning of the conflict. However, the locals, who had a slight advantage of weight and training managed to over come this slight handicap, and after once doing so, were able to advance the ball practically at their own will, which incidentally spelt defeat for the representatives of Warrenton, by the score of 37 to 0. A. R. C. Played Good. In the first quarter Bryant made the first touchdown, accomplishing this feat by bucking It across. Bryant then scored another, when Silver fell on a blocked punt that crossed the Warrenton goal line, on a ten yard buck, having made 50 yards on a for ward pass. Davis suffered an Injury in the first part of the play and therefore was not called on a single time. As all of the cadets played excel lent ball, therefore, no one in particu lar could be termed the hero of the day—tn fact, the whole team worked like a "machine”; one like George Stallings has gathered together. Coach Learned and Athletic Direc tor Chester accompanied the team. To Play Hero Friday. The Academy will again play War rpnton Friday, but this time the battle will be staged on the A. R. C. grid iron. There’s going to be some game thla time, for the “defeated eleven" claims that they have found their weak points and are going to plug them up. Well, this makes no dif ference to the locals for all that they are looking for 1s a good game—ln which they are able to give the other fellows an account of themselves.
