SHOULDER BLADES TELL ' THEIR OWN STORIES

Recent studies of the shoulder blade have rcsulcd in starting dlscloslues. a 0i lug to Dr. Wil- liam W. Gran. , professor of neuro- psychiotry at 5t Louis University.

Speaking bciorc the St Louis Academy of Sciences. Dr. Graves said that his studies of shoulder bades show that by their shape they indicate:

1 Probable length of life

2 Chances of good health.

3 Degree of intelligence.

4. Capacity to learn.

Dr. Graves has classified should- cr blades into two types:

l. Convex types.

2 Types other than convex.

Persons having lhc convex type of shoulder blades live longer than other: Dr. Graves declared and recent studies have shown them possessed of a greater capacity for learning. In thc Coilrse of studies he found one and-one-half more convex blade among school children from 6 to l4 years of age than among children of the same age in a colony for feeble-minded.

By a. progressive study of grades in school, Dr. Graves has found a higher percentage of convex blades in each silccccding grade than in the one jusbbclotv. This, he says indicates a proportionate increase in intelligence. reflecting the selec- tive process of education and the rule, “The higher the grade. the fewer thc dllllafliS."

The one exception to this was the first ycm‘ of high school, and Dr. Graves explained this by say- ing that many children of high intelligence are forced to drop out of school at the end of cighl- grade for fimincial reasons.

Dr. Graves pointed out that tho studies he has just completed on the physical variations of shoulder blades shows quality and not quan- tity. He indicated that another sur- vey will show the relation between degree of intelligence and refine- ments in shape of shoulder blades.

INSTALMENT 10

August I-Iilderbrand kept hi: promise to Jacqueline about thc chicken. It arrived from the deli- catessen shop on the stroke of clz.

‘and, even now, was in the oven i being subjected to a careful heating. ' It looked beautiful. ' ' The little hostess, wearing a frilly apron. over her silk dress, cheeks pink from heat and excitement, scurried about the apartment in last minute preparations.

The gate-leg table stood in the center of the room. covered with a snowy cloth and set with the Anth- ony family silvcr and dishes. Jac- queline biessed her own foresight fervently in retaining sufficient china to serve a dinner for two.

And a real dinner!

Over and over she had checked the items of that menu on her ner- vous flngers or, .wlth puckered brow, culled the roll of the cdibles in the refrigerator. The fruit salad, the crisp celery, the olives. The dessert buried in its bucket of cradsed ice, reposing in the bathtub. What if salt should seep into that container!

Harried glances at the clock on the mantel. Jacqueline never had appreciated what a tank it was in have everything ready at one time. Perhaps one got used to it. Her mother never seemed to worry over meals . . . provided there was food in the house. '

One more peep at he fowl. Siz- zling. Oh! .

A ring at the bell.

When the door was opened, there stood Larry. He seemed to fill the entire opening. A package under either arm. Grinning like a boy,

“My word!" was his greeting to his hostess. The smile vanished. lie stood motionless.

"Won't you come in?"

"Oh yes . . . But you . . ."

The flush in Jacquelines cheeks deepened.

"I forgot to take ofl’ my apron," she apologized in confusion. "I'm the cook and everything tonight," she added gaily.

"Please don't take it off," Larry blurted. “You're so pretty . . . Ex- cuse me. But you rather took me of! my feet." He transferred the pack- ages to one arm. clutched ofl his hat and closed the door. “Here Ibrought you a few posies and some . . . . candy. Never thought to ask if you have a sweet tooth!"
