Afer all, health and bodi!y vigor, is the mosc es- " pential thing in life. A pale, puny, weakling. may have acquired the education of a sage and still be a useless citizen. So, be it said to the credit of the educators, that the importance -of health is being emphasized. It i3 interesting to note some of the specific rules which’ the children are getting. - Here are some of the t ings to be found in a representative list: ¢ © eat between meals; your digestive organs no rest. sleep with the w'ndows all.closed. Don’t take patent medicines. ¥ Don't use tobacco. \ Den’t read.in street cars. Don’t use public towels or wash basins. Don’t pick your ear with pin or any sharp mst.m- ment. Dom’t use a pm or knife to open }nmple<. Then, of course, there is finstruction about the daily brushing of teeth and the taking of baths and how to- exercise and “ten hours, at least, of sleep.” * Qoincident with the suggestions regarding health and hygiene, there dsuallv is a course of instruction regarding 'table manners, and anyone who has ob- served. the way ‘many persobs in publc places eat, will.deny that there is-room. tn; imprnfnmént along this line, “Sprawling on the tabk. renchmg for food, eahng with the knife; eating” so\zb with as much noise as an M. & L. ftelyt train go'ng over a tres- sel—these are some of the:things commonly ob- served, and it comes well within the providence of the schoolroom that children be corrected so that they will go out into the world with the handicap of poor manners. Going: to schoo] in this year of our Lord is some- what dfferent, and a whole lot better, than in the dnave whon tha litt'e red school house was the symbol 2 valuable learning. Reports show that there are more varieties of weather in Washington than in almost any other part of the country. Perhaps brainstorms are in- cluded—with:no personal reflection intended for Senator Tom Watson. § N -A news item tells us that “‘an 800 year old herd of cattle was sold recently at Oban, Scotland.” Aha, tiow we know where those Duluth restaurant steaks come from. §—¥ For the year just closed, the railroads report the smallest number of fatalities from aceidents in their heitory. )iayhe it was because fewer persons were willing to risk their necke at four cents a mile. State Forester Cox seems to think that the best way to save the forests is to save the forests. It is hard to hark up against that philosophy and make it stick. - §——5 A sewing c'rele in Maine has voted to admit men to membership. Now they will have some goss:p that is. worthy the name. 5 Candy' is cheaper than before the war—and the girls are just as sweet—and hungry. § N The money market is getting easier, but it still costs terj cents for a’nickel cigar. ‘at Railroad Grade Crossings 3y G, rat on. ul { umLc it vel Jmpm:hmt th:\ e dext aceidents at grade crossing: are 10,000,000 motor vehicles now our tracks.
