In order to make them visible the bae- teriologist puts his germs through a process of staining. For example, let us say he is ex- amining a spe n of sputum for tuberculosis. He smears a piece. of 1 drops on chemical — stains. When these is ure dry the tu- berculosis germs stand out under the microscope us beautiful red rods in a blue backgroun Different kinds of germs take dif- ferent kinds of stuins, blue, red, green, violet. or brown, By this for- tunate discovery, the bacteriologist is often able to look through his microscope and tell at a glance what kind of germs he is dealing with, hut staining alone is not suf- ient to identify many germs, There are certain germs for which identification methods have not yet been worked out, such as for in- stance, the germs of smallpox, sear- let fever and measles. No one has as yet seen these germs, not even with the most powerful microscopes. SOME GERMS LIKE HEAT; OTHERS COLD One of the aims of those at work is the germ laboratory is to find out what kind of drugs or anti-toxins harmless to human beings will kill the germs so that when a_ person comes down sick with a germ ease he may be given a medicine that will not harm him, but one which will kill the disease germs in his body.

These bottled germs are known as cultures. The study of germs in the labora- tory is a most fascinating pursuit, but it is not an occupation at all suitable for nervous people, It is too dangerous, Some of our best laboratory work- ers are women. They appear to po: s plenty of nerve, they are very persistent in their research and are careful. All of these qualifications are ne y in a good germ detective.

(Copyright, 1925, NEA Service, Inc.) | Only, the way to enforce laws equally is to enforce them unequally. That is, enforcement should be equally proportioned to resistance. if a law is resisted one ounce, one ounce of pressure should be applied to enforcing it. If the resistance is | one ‘pound, the enforcement should +, also be a pound. And if the resist- ance is a ton, the only way to make enforcement effort “equal” is to en- force it a ton also. So, an ounce of effort on one law and a ton on another is precisely the way to be “equal” in enforcement energy. Whenever the wets want the pres- sure on prohibition enforcement re- | duced to one ounce, they can easily bring that about, by reducing their own efforts against it to the same amount. DANGERS OF THIS PROPAGANDA GAME Don't start the propagande game unless you are willing for the other fellow to do it, too, and to take the risk that he will beat you at it. Just now it is a dispute between the international idealists and the super-patriotic nationalists to see whether history text books shall glorify national pride or teach inter- national understanding, The only right answer, of course, as well as the only safe one, is that they shall do neither. Let them tell the exact truth, as the best qualified experts find that truth, and leave the students to do their own moralizing, they can draw the moral that ‘the truth is more essential than a con- clusion sustaining either “side” of anything, they will have learned pre- i the most vital of modern mor- alities. LESSONS OF THE PACIFIC PLANE RESCUE There has been no more dramatic story than that of the rescue, or, rather, the escape, of Commander Rodgers and his brave crew of flyers. Probably the only ones to whom it was not dramatic were the aviators themselves, The} were behind the scenes, and knew all the plot. Besides{ they were busy, and hard work leaves little time for thrills, They come afterward. But, at least, the dramatizing of it to the rest of the world will serve to emphasize its lessons, First of these is the lesson long ago learned in mine disasters, The rule of the mines is that the entombed victims are alive until their dead bodies are discovered, Now it will be the rule that lost aviatord are alive until they are | found dead, or the broken fragments | of their vessel are found without them, Next is that a modern bombing sea- plane is a seaworthy vessel, an should be manned by men who are seamen as well as airmen. Only the fine seamanship of these navy avi- ators saved a tragedy, Also, the small lessons of on cident ,warn against ti artiediar failures ee Another’ flight’will rave 2 transmitting set that ean he operated by hand if necessary, when all other power is gone. A husky man, turning a crank, with proper gears, can turn out a couple of hundred “watts” of power, and a whole crew together could turn out a considerable fraction of a kilowatt, which 4a great deal more than is need oO operate a trans- mitting set. And there will be more emergency food, more water, and a little reserve gasoline, not available for flying. Finally, one naval flyer has made a reputation which even yellow jour- nals will respect. And that man is appointed assistant chief of the air service. If that man makes what yellow journalist critics, in and out of the service, think are “mistakes,” they can at least not be charged to ignor- ance, incompetence, lack of practical experience, or lack of skill, resource- fulness, character or courage. A sensible man, loyal to his ser- vice, who has at the same time the confidence of the sensationalists, was needed—and has beeen found. ——_______—— | Longer Skirts, | + Style Dictum | , is o Paris, Sept. 26—C#)—Longer skirts, Jonger sleeves and high collars will be-the rule in women's dress for the coming fall and winter seasons, the dictators of fashion have ruled.
