THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) Raa : FULL OF ZINC Iron is an ingredient of the human body. Nearly everyone knows that. So is zine! ' That has just been. discovered by Prof. Dele- zenne, of the Pasteur Institute, of Paris. He came upon the fact by accident, and has “ spent much time seeking the purposes. and uses of zinc in man. , He found it has something to do with the pro- cess of nutrition. The presence of zinc in small but sufficient quantities is necessary if one is to be well nourished. , “He’s looking well and hearty,” you say of a friend. The new answer to that. is, “Yes, he is! He must be full of zinc!” Even though Harding is a printer, newspaper men need expect no pi under his administration. THE MOVIE FORUM ; Movie theaters ‘soon’ will be resounding with partisan applause as the pictures of the presi- dential candigates are flashed on the screens. Indeed, the movie, besides being an institution of popular entertainment, has developed into a sort of forum in which candidates for office can exhibit themselves to thé people and show what manner of men they are. Perhaps by the time the campaign of 1924 comes around, talking mov- ies will be perfected so that the ‘candidates can make themselves heard as well as seen even in the remotest sections of the country. : Since the last presidential campaign the movie has been greatly developed as an instrument of education and propaganda, ‘thanks: to thé: war. And this year, no doubt, there will be‘an especially enlarged use of it for Campaign nunposes. so. that, the candidates may. take the best possible show- ing to the greatest number of people. It may be all right to give Armenia to Greece. Turkey has been trying for a long time to make arcane of it. ; ; B _ THE POOR FISH Theadvisability of following through to the end of the chain of causation is emphasized by Hugh M. Smith, Director of the Bureau of Fisheries, who has just finished a bulletin for the National Geographic Society on the relation between cer- tain fisheries and the pearl button industry. The fish of the lower Mississippi are being grad- ually exterminated. Because they are, the men and women who work in the pearl button indus- try may lose their jobs. The. investigations conducted by Doctor. Smith show’anititimate relation between certain: kinds of fishes and the mussels, which yield valuable pearls and support a pearl button industry which in turn gives employment to about 20,000 persons and has a'product worth from $5,000,000 to $6,- 000,000 annually. The perpetuation of the fish supply of this-river, therefore, is exceedingly im- portant. omy aya ee It behooves everybody to be careful when monk- eying with the arrangements of the Creator. The fish of the Mississippi may.take vengeance on the human beings who destroy them. : American institutions may be as bad as en- emies claim, but you don’t notice any buffer states along the U. S. A. borders. : THE GLOW WORM Your little boy brings into the house the first “lightning bug” he has caught this season and asks: “What makes the lightning bug light?” And you scratch your head and, if you are a candid father, you admit you don’t know. But a good way to enlarge your education is to look up the correct answers to the questions of your child- ren that you can’t answer. , So when the boy is out of the room you surrep- titiously consult an encyclopedia and under “Glow Worm” you find revealed the most wonderful of our summer mysteries. P : You discover that the light of the glow worm, or “lightning bug” is phosphorescent and is pro- duced by fatty cells to which run many infinites- mal tubes that carry oxygen which reacts on the phosphorus and makes the light. You find, too, that the lightning bug is the most perfect of illuminating plants. Man has produced light in various forms, but still has to make light without heat, as the lightning bug has been doing for ages. K } . i All the energy of the lightning bug is used for light and none is wasted in heat. It is interest- ing also.to note that the lightning bug produces 36 flashes every*minute and, comparatively speak- : a ing, no creature works so hard and so steadily to} . perform its mission. ° Indeed, in southern countries and in some parts of:Canada, a cousin of our lightning bug is used by wayfarers to light the paths through dark for- ests at night. ' But there is one question your boy will ask that no encyclopedia answers. Why did God make lightning bugs? It must have been for the great- er glory of summer nights. In hot weather one should wear a smile and as little else as possible. “ADOPTED” Once upgn a time there was a liftle girl who would not drink.milk or do any 6f the things that her parents said would make her fat and healthy. And years afterwards she explained that at the time she imagined that her parents were not her real father and mother—they were witches who had stolen her and wanted to fatten her up to eat. At 7 she had seen the play of Hansel and Gretel, and something had made her think that her father and mother could act like the old witch. Most children do not go that far—they do not expect to be eaten. But how many are there who imagine that they are adopted and not the real children of their parents; or wonder if that may not be so? Make a few inquiries and you will be surprised at the number. - Why do they do it? Partly because they see how impossible it would be for them to learn the truth if it were really so; everybody would be sorry for them and deny it. Partly also, some- times, because they feel. that they have been treated as no parent could possibly treat his very own child. A hasty word or the unexpected denial of some request that seemed resonable to the child may be enough to bring conviction when the problem is there. There-are all kinds:of things locked up in the heads of kiddies" that their parents never dream of, afid some of them would come out if father and mother listened more and did not command so much.
