Another old idea that has just been punctured is the belief that the Indian population of America is rapidly dying out Dr. Edgar L. Hewitt, director of the School for American Research, has just finished a survey of the Pueblo and other Indian populations of New Mexico. He finds that the population of the Pueblo villages has increased 22.2 per cent in the last 10 years, It now totals 10,565. Only one village showed a deer in the past 10 yea and that was an influenza epidemic. Dr. Hewitt also finds that a number of commu nicable diseases thought to be prevalent among the Indians are no more so than among the white races. He also finds that the dances and other ceremon jials are not on the wane but are undergoing a re vival. In the cases where certain features dances were objectionable the Indians are willing sugsested to them by government officials. e in population as the result of of these the past, he s Wants to Abolish Dead Letter Office ‘The government would like to get rid of the deal letter office—and could, if each of us would only writé his own name and address, for return, on the outside of the envelope.

(Los Angeles Evening Express) Judge Sheppard has returned to his own court in Florida, after tw&memorable months on the bench of the United States district court in Los Angeles. And it is said lawyers and court attaches still have that dazed look. Judge Sheppard while here gave an exhibition of judicial speed and alacrity which figuratively took away the breath from all that | came before him. He went at the business of dis: posing of booze runners and bootleggers with a dash and vim which even those convicted couldn't help but admire. No time was consumed in needless argument between attorneys or “taking under ad- visement’” causes that had been heard. The breezy jurist from the Everglades set a good example whic other judges, in all the courts, might follow with | benefit to the state and everybody concerned.

It depends on the race and the civilization that have provided his ideals, An Indian maharajah, |rich by reason of the $5,000,000 \ yearly income extorted from his peasants, visited London, took # whole floor at the Savoy for his harem and attendant: hired a fleet of limousines and disported himself in plum-colored turbans and pearl necklaces. That, to him, seemed the natural thing to do, for a man who could do as he ‘pleased. Suppose John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who pays more in income tax ‘than the whole revenues of the Indian prince, were to begin performing in any such fashion! Which would we do first---lock him up for a lunatic, or start a revolution to confiscate his fortune? No need to answer, because the thing is unthinkable. Our civiliza- tion does not produce that kind of people. BRAVERY IS A COMMON QUALITY We have not yet conquered the air. The battle is still on, with the storms and the sea skill sometimes the winner. The trials cost lives and bring on deep sense of tragedy. But they will not stop—at least not with the consent of the aviators. They are not afraid to dare, and if necessary to die, in,the interest of human progress. It is one of the glories of human nature that men e to be pro- tected against risking themselves.

The transcontinental airmail flies daily, almost without mishap, and with no more delays than happen to the slower mail on the ground. Regular passenger lines cross and criss-cross Europe, and there are seasoned voyagers there who will never travel any other way. The conquest of the sea remains. The distances across the ocean are fixed factors, and are just beyond the present safe sailing radius of our aircraft. As a fact. the Atlantic has been crossed, and if the Pacific to Hawaii has not been, it soon will be. But it means lightening everything else beyond the limit of safety in order to carry fuel, and then having only goes barely enough if everything well, with no reserves for e gencies. The seas cannot be made narrower. Planes can be made larg- er and stronger, but there is nothing in sight in that direction that more than just barely big enough. Really to conquer the sea we may have to wait on a more efficient fuel, which can be used in a more efficient engine. A published rumor, a few weeks ago, that such a fuel and engine had been perfected, was officially denied the next day. o we may have to wait.

CUMMING Surgeon General, United States Pub- lic Health Service Malnutrition is an important con- dition very often neglected, and when neglected may lead to serious conse- quences. Malnutrition may lay the founda- tion for poor physical development or poor health in later life or may lead to some serious disease like tu- berculosis. You should know how to recognize malnutrition in children, If you find that a child is not much below normal weight or height but that he gains much more slowly than he should you should at once suspect malnutrition. At the ages trom 6 to 10, when a healthy child gains four ‘or five pounds a year, children suffering from malnutrition may gain only one or two pounds. Some do not gain at | att From 12° to 16 years, when healthy children should gain from six to ten pounds per year, children suffering from malnutrition may gain only two or three pounds. Children suffering from’ malnutri- tion, however, do not all behave in the ‘same way. Some are pale, dull and restless, with dark rings under their eyes. They tire easily and have no ambi- tion for work or play. Their work in school’ is often so poor that they must frequently re- peat their classes. Other children suffering from mal- nutrition are nervous, fretful, hard to please, and hard to manage. They eat and’ sleep badly. Still others are over ambitious, constantly active and restless. They find conversation difficult. To grow in height and gain regularly in weight is just as much a sign of health in a boy or girl of 9 or 10 as it is in a baby. Mothers have learned to weigh their babies. . If your boys and girls were weigh- ed regularly every month this condi- tion of malnutrition would be dis- covered early and would not be al- lowed to go on to serious, conse- quences. CAUSES OF MALNUTRITION us Causes of malnutrition are not difficult to find. Most important causes are: ey, The child does not get sufficient food. The child does not get the right kind of food. He spoils his appetite for simple foods needed for growth by excessive indulgence in candy, sweets, pastries, and indigestible foods. He eats irregularly. He never .takes time enought at meals to chew his food properly. FABLES ON HEALTH WATCH DIET OF YOUR CHILDREN | CLOSELY | He does not get enough sleep. He suffers from habitual stipation. He gets too many motion pictures and other evening entertainments. He plays too hard for too many hours. He is overworked in school or out. Malnutrition may also be caused and aggravated by decayed teeth, enlarged or dideased tonsils and adenoids. In places where malaria or hook- worm are present malnutrition is often the result of these infections. Unless malnutrition is recognized early and measures are taken to cor- rect it the effects of this condition in childhood may last to adult life. Investigations show that 20 per cent of the children in many of our schools are ut present suffering from malnutrition. In order to prevent malnutrition or at least to recognize it before serious consequences have followed, it is most important that you watch the child’s weight. A child much below normal weight or one who is ‘steadily losing weight or one who is not making a normal gain should at once be taken to a physician. The whole daily life of the child should be carefully investigated to determine which of the rules of health he is violating and whether this pertains to his food, his habits con- of eating, his hours of play, of school work or of sleep. SUGGESTIONS FOR DIET OF CHILDREN During infancy ‘mothers should nurse their babies until _advi otherwise by a competent physician. At six months the baby is able to digest starchy foods, therefore at this time small amounts of barley or oatmeal water may be given with the milk. A teaspoonful of orange juice twice a day is also beneficial. When the teeth piece of cracker or zwieback may be allowed. In addition a little cereal jelly without sugar may be given once a day, preferably in the niorn- ing. At about the fifteenth or sixteenth month small amounts of baked po- tato, apple sauce, and the pulp of thoroughly cooked prunes may be added to the baby’s diet. When the child is two and a half or three years of age you may begin to give him one or two teaspoonsfuls of scraped meat or an egg. As the child grows older you should take care to see that the diet is mixed and varied, that it supplies all the elements necessary to insure growth. Milk should be given at each meal. Children should not be allowed to drink either tea or coffee. near him. you?” “About as big as the moon,” said Nancy. : “About as big as an umbrella,” said Re ick. “Oh, ho! - We shall see!” said Tick Tock. “Come on.” They went ~inside the building where the tower was and started to climb.
