"NO ONE IS NORMAL"

Men Without Love At 24

"Lack Social Interest" CONFESSING that he did not know of any "normal”

person, Dr. Alfred Adler, the famous Viennese pay- chologist, was closely questioned recently by members of his audience when he lectured at the Conway Hall, Red Lion-square, Holborn, on "Individual Psychology.'

One questioner asked him whether he would describo a man of 24, who was not interested in the opposlto sex, as abnormal, and what was the remedy.

Dr. Adler described this condition-"If it really existed”—as a form of lack of social interest, anl said that this tendency would show itself in other ways.

What are the signs of normal conscloueness in a child?" was another question.

"If the child does not give any trouble," was Dr. Adler's ready response.

Soveral of the questions dealt with the bearing of heredity and environment on character. To one of these, Dr. Adler replied that psychologists often talked much of heredity and environment and forgot the child.

A great deal of the lecture had dealt with the human desire to over- come difficulties, and Dr. Adler was asked what he had to say about a man who had protested that he had

"The man does not necessarily tell you what his alm is," said the doctor,

"but he must have one."

One questioner tried to draw Dr. Adier on his opinion of certain Freudian theorics.

THE MUSIC DOES GO 'ROUND

Now here's a little nifty in which the muste (zorry, but you'll have to hear it again) goes 'round and 'round. It was invented by Oraco Mahn, Clarence F. McCleary and A. H, Henderson, Beattle. The player of the rondolin pushes bicycle pedals, which revolve a five- foot spindle. As the spindle revolves the player plucks atrings similiar to harp strings and containing four chromatic octaves. Two sounding boards are mounted on the spindle.

There are 920,000 women in the Australian State of Victoria, and between them they pay 10,000,000 visits a year to hairdressers' 'parlours.

This estimate was computed and presented to the State's Minister for Labour by a hairdressers' deputation which asked for the establishment of a separate wages board for women hairdressers,

The Minister is carefully going into the problem, says Austral Newa.

of the birth of Gabriel Danicl Führenkelt, F.R.S. Though German born, be mude Burlington House his scientific home and did much of his work in London.

But for Fahrenheit, "98.4" would never have been connected with good health, nor would "eighty degrees in the shade" have their present power to suggest n hent wave. In addition. to inventing the temperature scale which bears his nume, he was res- ponsible for the general introduction of the mercury thermometer..

At the same time as it elected him a Fellow, the Royal Society awarded him a gratuity of ten guineas. This was for his assiduity in attending

Fahrenheit's first men meetings.
