Earth tremors shook Glasgow, Falkirk, Den- ny snd other parts of central Scotland last week, giving rise to fears on the part of some persons that the disturbance was from bomb concussions. The tremors were so severe in places that peo- ple were thrown out of chairs, and office desks slid out of their places. just before midnight a slight earthquake was felt in Birmingham. Last February earth tremors caused alarm in Stirling and other Scottish towns.

Dr. Thierry dc Martel, France's most fam- ous turgeon, committed suicide the day the Ger- man Army occupied Paris. The doctor, chief surgeon of the American Hospital in the Neuilly suburbs of Paris, committed suicide with an in- jection of strychninc. He left a message to Unit- ed States Ambassador William C. Bullitt say- ing. "If I stay in Paris it is like putting s. signed check in the enemy's hands. If I stay in Paris dead it is s check without funds "‘ “ * * Adieu." He was trapped in Paris by the Ger- man forces of occupation because he promised his superiors that he would remain at his post.

If marriage were dictated by reason instead of love it would be an easy matter to avoid ,'marital unhappiness and dispeace. Self-confid- lerlce is the sole requisite for happiness in marri- age, Mr. Ernest W. Burgess, University of Chicago sociologist, told students at the Art Institute theother day. He said research and tests proved that self-confident persons were practical, congenial and sanguine, all they net-d to be to qualify es good husbands and ivives. Professor Burgess advised persons lacking in confidence to choose mates of a ilniiiiiiant type, and vice versa, contending that opposite per- sonalities are more likely to succeed in marriage. "The sociable and the solitary, the extrovert and lntrovert, have the same excellent OPIVOTfIIIlliY for happy wedded life if they select mates with opposite personalities," he asserted.

Bertrand Russell, who went to jail for his opinions in the last war, proclaims his change of heart. Archibald Maolclsh not only announces his conversion but shouts "M ea Culpa" from the housetops, blaming himself and his fellow-writ- ers for destroying youth's idealism. A. A. Milne, who five or six ears ago wrote a pacifist tract celled "Peace With Honor," is credited with the fine war poem signed "A.A.M." which appeared in s recent "Punch."

"Thls was fully up to the num- bor dist the French had been lad to expect st that stage of the war, snd compares with 382,000 by April I, 1915, in the Wnflil War," the mate- ment continued. "Ihrmi bout the great battle Great Britain met all lgrench requests without lany regard for the exigencies of home defense.

The Royal Air Force, according to the moment, slso sent rein- forcements beyond the number of planes agreed upon when the (kl-mans broke through the French line st Sedan, and bore the major share in the-sir fighting. “In order to sow discord be- Jween the Allies the Genrlan propaganda ma-
