Republic Will Absorb Famed "Kingdom of Chance." Washington. ? Plana for the transfer to Franco of virtual control of the principality of Monaco, glittering "Kingdom of Chance," on the Riviera, are being discussed In their capitals, Paris and Monte Carlo. The proposed change would affect chiefly the tax situation. Monaco citizens, heretofore untaxed because contributions from the famous gaming casino were suffi cient to meet the principality's needs, would pay the regular taxes of France. "Eight square miles in area, and with more than two miles of coast line touching the bluest of seas, the prin cipality of Monaco has been one of the most artificial of states," says a bulle*. tin from the National Geographical society. "Chance give It its riches. Chance has reversed Its fortunes. Big ger gaming activities elsewhere and other amusements have robbed Monte Carlo not only of Its profits but also of Its lure. Moving picture palaces, open to all in scores of big cities, are now more ornate than the glided rooms of Monte Carlo's famovls casino. Amusements Ara Varied. "Long before the depression broke the bank which no player had con quered, Monaco had come to offer such a variety of amusements that I 20 tennis courts, down between the mountain^ and the rock peninsula fa mous players stimulate an emulation which make* La Festa club a favorite rendezvous. Bathing Is so lengthen ing the season that summer has many devotees. Into the Port of Hercules come the spotless yachts of many na tions and, just outside, huge tourist steamers await the return of their guests before setting out once more on the path of the modern pilgrim of pleasure. "Few visitors to Monte Carlo have known whether th<*y were In the tiny principality or in France. France did nothing to emphasize the transition, and the law of competition triumphed over politics so far as the casual vis itor was concerned. Monaco Is tod so full of tourist palaccs. commercial hotels and pensions, that those who like the climate, the sports and the amusements of the place need not wait for . the return of fortune to the gam ing rooms she formerly favored. Lift Gay Under Any Flag. "Monte Carlo is a beautiful, clean, peaceful resort. Even in the old days the streets were often quiet by nine. Once the theater and ballet or opera crowds had entered the garish portals of the combination casino and theater, Monte Carlo was quiet until the brief hustle of taxis at the close of the performance.

On the Mont Agel golf course players can alternately drive toward the snowy summits of the Alps toarltlroes and the matchless blue of the Cote d'Azur. On Baby of Congress Joseph I*. Monaghap of Rutte, Mont., will have the distinction of being the youngest member of the next congress. He is only twenty-six years old, a Democrat, and an attorney. Once be fore Monaghan was a candidate for congress and was defeated, but thin time, he beat his Republican opponent by more than 15,000 votes. "Monaco still has Us devotees, many of whom will be glad to linger on In a beauty spot where man helped na ture to an unnatural charm, even If they have to pay taxes. If France should swallow up the principality it would mean that big nation will under write the finances of the tiniest of states. The invisible, and usualy Ig nored boundary will slide down from Neausoleil to include Monte Carlo and the Condamlne. It has even been sug gested that the high rock of Monaco, old Phocaean fortress, may be brought under a military tricolor. "But those would be minor changes, of which the average visitor would re main ignorant. If the sun continues to brighten the world-famous terraces, If while-bodied yachts once more an chor in the Port of Hercules, If the tennis champions of the world meet on the courts of La Festa club. If warm beaches attract their Bhare of j bathing beauties, If shiny motor cars come to halt between casino, and restaurant to win their beauty prizes, the principality of Monaco will con tinue Its gay, artificial life of leisure and beauty." Dog Deserts Happy Home for Life in City Pound Kvnnston, 111. ? When a dog runs away from a happy home and applies for re-admittance to the city dog pound, It must prove something, Wil liam Krlandson, dog catcher, believes. "It shows," he said, "that I treat ihem better than their owners." To substantiate his statement he pointed to the case of Iluttercup, a dog that returned to the pound the day aftef Its owner had taken It home. SUCCESS AND FAILURE Br THOMAS ARKLE CLARK LaU Dun of M?n, University of IllinoU. Whoever generalizes upon tbe con duct of human beings will need to do bo with great care and conservatism, for two people are seldom alike nor are they moved In similar' directions by similar Influ ences, and so he whose job It Is to direct and manage a group of men and who announces that he Impartially treats all his men alike Is simply an nouncing to anoth- ( er way how little he knows about men and how very In efficient he ifi In his management. Failure stimulates some men to greater effort ; success In some others breeds still greater success. Scott and Lewis was each efficient and suc cessful In his own way. Scott came away from a successful attempt with | enthusiasm, lie congratulated himself | openly upon what he had done; he patted himself on the back; he glowed with pleasure as he recounted In de- i tall the processes by which he had reached the conclusion of his efTorts. With Lewis It was quite different. Success made him thoughtful, more humble as it were, and keenly an-' alytlcal of the processes which he had employed. When he accomplished any thing well, he pat down calmly and reviewed the steps he had taken and the mistakes he had made. He seemed to be most stimulated by dwelling not upon the cleverness of his previous efforts but upon the mis takes and blunders of which he had been guilty, and working out a sys tem which would help him to avoid and correct these. "I blundered pretty badly this time." he would admit to himself, "but you watch me In the future and you'll see AIR PILOTS ARE TRAINED TO FLY BLINDFOLDED Depend on Instruments and Directive Radio Beam. Chicago. ? A few mile* to the west of the Chicago municipal airport an airplane appeared tn the sky, the drone of Its engine steadily increasing as It flew directly toward the field along the airway leading into the Windy City from the Pacific coast As the plane soared by the air port, a field attendant on top a hangar spoke Into a radiophone: "Murray, you passed two hundred yards south of the field. Circle around." "O. K.," replied the pilot, who could see neither sky nor ground. The plane circled and once more headed for the airport. "You're coming straight toward the field now," the radio man advised, and in a moment the "blindfolded" pilot Gabby Gertie "A mechanic looking for broken pro peller! occasionally geta wind of one." had guided the plane over the center of the airport. Pilot John Murray of United Air Unea had flown the plane from Iowa City to Chicago without seeing any thing except the Instruments in front of him, for the cockpit was effectually covered by a hood. In another cock pit without a hood rode Ralph John son, als# a United pilot, but he didn't touch the controls during the entire j flight All pilots are now trained in Instru ment flying and the latest Invention* for air navigation have been Installed on company planes. The air trans port company has recently been mak ing use of Its radio telephone commu nication between planes and the ground to lead the "blindfolded" pi lots directly to airports. With the aid of his Instruments and the directive radio beam, the latter a series of code signals Identifying the course of the airway, Murray was able to fly from Iowa City to Chicago without deviating from his course. When he arrived at Chicago, the air port radio operator was able to lead | him directly over the airport. Pwllheli Is Welsh for "The Salt Poor' London. ? The spelling of the name of Pwllheli, Wales, should not deter any from visiting It. A near phonetic pronunciation would be "Poolthelly" ; It means "the salt pool." It not only has golf links, bowls, sea and river fishing, but Is In one of the most romantic and scenic sections of Wales. There are tine views of the Har lech mountains and Cardigan bay, while the foothills of the Snowden range are to Its north. You may long have sung the glories of the men of Harlech ; this will give you a chance to live right opposite to them, for Harloch Is across the bay, which is always In view from Pwllheli's long, sandy beach. Tomb Living Quarters for Unemployed Worker A man who had lived for nearly a year In a tomb and made bis bed In a coffin, has been detained by the police of western Poland.
