The fundamental fact is that a part of our people are unconvinced with reference to the liquor traffic. The trouble is with the people more than with their government.” It should be plain to every open-minded observer that prohibition not attained the succe which is essential if the w is to be anything more than dead letter. The average man thinks no more of violating the Volstead act than of spitting on the sidewalk. Among large classes of citizens the law is looked upon as at best a necessary evil The danger which shrouds the future of “great experiment in social control” is not that the eighteenth amendment faces the prospect of bei repealed, but that it will fall into disuse. If this hap pens, the law is destined to become a political fooi ball to be enforced largely for and a menace to social wel The enthusiastic supporters the eigh teenth amendment rest secure in the belief that the law cannot be repealed. They overlook the that a fate worse than repeal can overtake prohi bition, They must be brought to realize that a new crusade to make prohibition effective is needed to combat the widespread cynicism and defeatism which beset rigid enforcement. This great cessity is stressed in the closing paragraph of the church report. “A new opportunity is at hand. The cri developed in the enforcement of proh calls for a frank facing of facts and a new assump: tion of responsibilit; The federal government has announced a right-about-face on enforcement policy.

This is the theory suggested by Dr. Arthur Smith Wood- ward, one of Great Britain’s foremost anthropolo- gists. Dr. Woodward bases his opinion upon the fact that just before man made his appearance upon earth, | the forests of northern India were inhabited by a race of great apes. i ;At this time the Himalayan Mountains did not exist. { The time of which Dr. Woodward speaks is known | to the geologists as the Miocene era, That was ap- ‘ proximately 100,000 years ago. ; Then came one of nature’s great upheavals.

The children have learned that, at such times, they may romp back and forth across the pavement without fear of sudden and violent | death, . Recently two motoris in defiance of the signs, and each ran over and killed a child. Both were arrested, but one escaped punishment on the plea that the, street had been closed off ag a playground without the necessary action by the board of aldermen. In other words, he knew what the sign meant, but did not have to obey it. Now policemen have been stationed at the ends of these recreation spa to see that the warnings are heeded. But that does not bring back to life the two children who were killed. There is some- thing the matter with the motorist who will delib jerately ignore posted prohibitions and drive his car through a crowd of romping children, Unfortunately [no test has yet been devised that will reveal] the defect in time to avert the tragedy. ea j A Period of Land Speculation (Cincinnati Times Star) We hope the speculative land booms which have appeared during the year in various parts of the jcountry will be followed by building booms, for the nation has not yet caught up with its housing pro- gram, thanks to the postponements made neccssary ‘during the World War. Indeed, there has been an |impressive amount of new construction—$52,000,004 (for thirty-si ates in July, un increase of 53 pe* | cent over the same month of last year, That is the soiid fact behind the froth of the | speculation. Florida has seen remarkable advances jin real estate values. The announcement that |nine-mile boardwalk will shortly be constructed in the Rockaway park. region of Long Island started in a flurry-of «buying and gelling, a quaint incident of which was the receipt by banks of 500 bogus checks in a single y. Owners of shore prop erty along Cape Cod announce their intention to put up prices 100 per cent. All these things are largely phenomena of the water front. Salt water has sud denly become attractive to Americans. Buying and selling of real estate seems largely * matter of mass psychology. Every state has booms of this kind between long dormant period: when land moved very slowly.

H Surgeon Approximately 10,000 people in the U.S. died of “measles in the year 1923. This did not include w large number who died of broncho-pneu-| monia, a great number of c f which’ in children are caused by measles. Approximately 68.2 per cases of broncho-pneumonia oceur in children under five years of This is also the time of life when measles is most apt to occur. ris the story of the ra : asles. complete without mention large number of cases of tuber- josis which follow un attack of asles, Less frequently inflamma- tion of the ear or eye may be left behind as a mark of this common is a disease of prime im- | portance, Measles i se of close as- sociation, E tumn when school opens there n inerease in the number of of s until i frequen’ sees the disease ding in epidemic proportion Many times a child goes to a par jty. Perhaps among the guests there is one with reddened, watery eyes, which are sensitive to light. Per- haps the eyelids are a little puffy, and the guest has a hard, high-pitch: Jed cough. In this way a single child in the ini of me: may ily or 20 other: In rather severe cases the whole face is swollen and puffed. The throat is parched and dry, and an irritating cough adds to the discom- fort. The child is apt to come home from | school feeling drowsy and irritable, | frequently complains of chilly sensa- tions, and may even have a chill, At night the irritation increases, the child is feverish, the white of the eyeballs show little red lines upon them, and the ‘sufferer has the appearance of being just ready to cry. SYMPTOMS OF MEASLES In the morning you will find the hard palate and back of the throat have become colored a dull angry red; there may be a few little red spots on the hard palate, and if you look closely at the lining membrane of the chéek you will see some small white-tipped reddish spots called Koplick’s spots from their discov- erer. At the end of the day it will be found that the fever will be higher than it was the night before. There will be great restlessness, rolling and tossing about the bed, frequent requests for a drink of wa- ter. finished peeling he may be permitted FABLES ON HEALTH TELLS PARENTS HOW TO CARE ' FOR CHILDREN to go out to play with other chil- dren, provided he does not have a running nose, MAY CAUSE OTHER DISEASES Sometimes measles is more malig- nant. The patient may suffer from onvulsions, from high fever, an ex- essive development of all the ordi- nary symptoms, or the rash when it appears instead of being red may be a hluish black discoloration, which looks like a recent bruise, Broncho-pneumonia, the most com- mon and the most fatal of all the complications of measles, is very apt to oceur. The cough is very painful and death usually follows quickly. These two forms of measles are in no way exaggerated, and unfortunately they are of too common occurrence. While all the severe cases may not be grave you should know that bron- chospneumonia is the greatest. men- ace of measles, Sometimes there are other compli- cations, and the ears, eyes, central nervous system, the heart andthe skin may, any one of them, suffer. Rarely ‘there is gangrene at the ‘orners of the mouth. This may re- sult in death or horrible deformity, Measles is a serious disease, and spares practically no exposed person who has not liad it. For the protection of your chil- dren, and the children of your neigh- bors, you should know that a child with measles should be put to bed and kept away from other children as long as it has any fever, cough, or discharge from the nose. The room should be airy, but. it should be darkened, because chi’ dren with measles are very sensi- tive to light. The bedclothes should be thin, because the child is apt t6 become too warm, kick off the cov- ers, and suffer from a cold. A chill- ing in this way may predispose to pneumonia. Food should be light and should consist chiefly of nutritious broths, pasteurized milk, soft boiled eggs, and the like. Iced lemonade will prove fortable to the inflamed throat. The child’s eyes should be kept clean, and should the fever run high the comfort of the little sufferer may be increased by sponging with tepid water and alcohol. Every child sick with measles should have _ skilled medical attention given by the fam- ily physician, REMEMBER THESE FIVE POINTS You should remember: 1, That children with measles should be provided with a quanti of soft paper napkins, and as soon as the napkins become soiled they should be burned. 2. That children should be taught that they must always hold their handkerchief in front of the mouth when coughing. 3. That everything which has come in contact with patients suf- fering with measles should be ster- ilized before it is allowed to come in contact with other people. That when is known t measles exists community, n child with a cold or cough should be allowed to come contact with other children, 6. That it is little less ul to permit children known to have mea to come in contact with well children. While it is gen- erally considered that a person can suffer from measles but once, there are cases on record of second and third attacks. These are unusual, com- in than crim- go north, I saw an iceberg.

The human body has become re- srzstable. It is not immodest to show it It is not wicked to cultivate Health is a virtue and wholesome human joy is honorable. We are no longer ascetic. If we cut down our food, it is not for the spiritual discipline of self- denial, but for bodily fitness. ‘The body is mentionable. The “health column” does not have to omit all organs below the diaphragm, The fainting lady and the ethereal saint are no longer our deal, The flesh has come to its own, 5 Whether the world and the devil, the other members of the traditional trio, are also triumphing, is another question. Certainly, the crime sta- tistics make out a strong case for the devil. And there was never a time when material prosperity was so great and so universally desired. The world, the flesh and the devil seem to have resumed their pagan sway. And there is no visible pros- pect of ousting them. Can we not do the next-best thing, and use them? The flesh, certainly, has achieved a spiritual value, Never was there so little neurotic morbidness as in this day of the frank acceptance of the body and the senses. Our robust youth are a decent generation. They have strip- ped most of the mystery from life, but they face it clear-eyed, The devil is harder to deal with. But we are analyzing gven ‘his methods, and learning that the bat way to meet hellish wrongs is not to add a fiendish penalty to them. We may yet psychoanalyze the devil himself into a useful citizen, And the world, though never so worldly, was never 80 idealistic as now. Wealth has become a_ conscious trust, and “service” is the motto of business. We are taming and civil- izing the world, the fl and the devil. We need the spiritual, too; but perhaps it is a good thing that the new era prefers its spirtuality robust and clean. | LITLEJOE | »—_—_—_________¢ \Ywien ts connect, Tue SCHOOL DAYS ARE WITH * YS, OR THE SCHOOL DAZE \s WITH 0S9 oe *
