Official City, State and County Newspaper) = : Teaching Fair Play Boys, out for the joy of the thing, steal 93 Per cent of the motor cars reported stolen, ac- cording to the prosecutor at Kansas City. In an earlicr day it probably would have been called fun, but now the headlines have elevated Such a pastime to the dignity of “thrill-theft.” The prosecutor offers a solution. He thinks boys persist in this crime because they are dealt with leniently because of their age. He proposes a minimum of five years in the peni- tentiary, with few or no paroles, as one possible remedy. He believes that this plan would save hundreds of boys from careers in crime. The five-year term might save hundreds of boys from careers in crime, but we doubt if it is exactly the thing needed. We think youth should be taught a sense of fair play, and that if he acquires that, he will be no thief. Boys used to have very nice scruples about where fun ended and crime began, and we think it was the old-fashioned parents who ought to get the credit for this. Our recommended place of application of the sense of fair play is the old woodshed. We think a few more trips to that sanctum would save a great deal of time ir. the penitentiary. The woodshed is a wonderful laboratory in which to teach fair play. An Excuse forCrime There seems to be some queer quirk in many men that make them offer silly excuses when caught in crime. i The man who killed little Dorothy Schneider in Michigan told police that the influence of the Hickman crime must have made him do it—it on his mind. gave as his reason for slaying a little girl in California the desire to attend echeel in Kansas City, it being his intention use the ransom money that way. Three men arrested for robbery of a Kansas tel police they “needed the money.” 3 ‘were out of work or their incomes were or something like that. : killed his wife in Cincinnati and said ‘the G8 & because she had conspired with an- ether te ruin him. Some day a man is going to come forward and ' tefl a jury that he killed or stole because his own selfish self told him to do it—that he s ~ sinned because the evil in him for the moment |J conquered the good—that he was weak and the _temptation found him unable to resist—that it was all his own fault and nothing that anybody @lse ever did had any bearing on it. If the jury lives through such a shock as | that, it probably will acquit the man who has that much manhood left that he is too brave to hide behind a flimsy excuse. 3 Motor Rules and the Future ‘ | The widespread use of the motor car is com- i lawmakers to give considerable atten- tion to the special problems it presents.

Pleasingly Plump Florenz Ziegfeld, producer of girl-shows extraordinary, recently advertised for forty “pleasingly plump” misses for his pageants of pulchritude. ‘ The secretary of agriculture for Maine, who is behind a campaign to prove to the women of New England that potatoes are not fattening, should read this and change his ballyhoo. We offer him the slogan, free: “Put On Pleasing Pounds With Potatoes,” and suggest that he print it in large type alongside Mr. Ziegfeld’s advertisement. That’s one way to sell all the potatoes Maine can produce, and Iowa farms which have been put to growing wheat soon would be fine potato fields. The fad of thin, shadowy ladies has been traced by some historian back to the movie edict of a few years ago, threatening decimation from the payroll of chocolate-fed queens whose dresses puckered up a bit about the buttons. Flesh at once became abhorrent to the feminine young folk from Maine to California. Now, perhaps the flappers who have been calling it a lunch will start eating their meals again. | Editorial Comment The Next War (Omaha World-Herald) The wind bloweth where it listeth, but war is what men make it, nothing more and nothing |less. The forces of nature combine according 'to the immutable laws of the universe to form the storm and no human hand can stay its de- velopment, alter its course or decrease its severity. But war is born solely of the passions of man. It can exist only because he wills it and it can cease to exist whenever, and only when, he wills it so. Nevertheless men, strong, intelligent, able men, still talk of the next war as being as in- evitable as the next hurricane. They assume that the man who at least can erect defenses against the fury of the storm is incapable of making an end of his own creature, although he has abundant evidence of the folly, the futility and the madness of it. 4 Willis J. Abbott writes in the Christian Science Monitor: While I was in Paris Andre Tardieu, journalist and statesman, said to me: “There will not be another war until the generation which witnessed the horrors of the last one has definitely left the world’s stage.” But a week later the 4 bk we 4 ‘ i o “Arte mie t - Ms fi none e BY RODNEY DUTCHER ably one of the biggest, if not one| frien, comeadinn, that wenn tines EA Service Writer of the very best, liars in Washing-| 9), k is Alterisi Washington, Jan. 26.—Here are ®!ton. 1¢ 1 were not a big liar and al son cgoee, ne “hap eats few little true stories of the life in| Ser few. if any, equals.

Is the French peasant of the present generation in any better state than the French peasant of the seventies, after France lost a war? Hardly. ~ But the John Smiths must trust to the poli- ticians, the foreign ministers, the diploma‘., the Mussolinis. An these are the men who go about their daily tasks of government with their gaze riveted on the next war. It is as though the thing charmed them as a serpent is said to charm its victim. Thirteen years ago there was but one obstacle to the perpetual peace of Europe or so men said. German militarism was the bugbear of a pa- cific-minded world. But the war to end war made an end of German militarism and de- stroyed German imperialism which fostered it. The old excuse for‘fearing a next war is gone, but the fear ins. But the will of John Smith is potent. It finds expression more and more through statesmen who are not willing to concede that the case of the world is hopeless, who think it worth while at least to grope their way through national differences toward the goal of peace. As man makes war so he can end it. And so he will, when his determination to do so becomes strong enough. Whether he must pass through another Armagedon before doing so depends upon himself.

The elimination is always retarded, the bodily odors are proncunced and distinctive, while the urine is heavy and full of urates and phosphates. Skin elimination being sluggish, sweating is brought on with rreat difficulty, even by Turkish baths and cabinet sweats, The specific toxemia esponsible for rheumatism is just as different from that producing other diseases as tuberculosis is entirely different from diabetes. I am not disparage ing the infection theory, however, as I am certain that various forms! of infection ere often sufficiently | irritating causes whei. ve there is! the necessary rheumatic toxicosis. | For instance, a tonsillar infection; may be like a match, setting off the! blaze of rheumatism; but the fuel} must have been ready, and that fuel | is always a toxic, poisoned state of the body. The removal of diseased tonsils, the extraction of absceszed teeth, or the cure of a genito-urinary infec- tion has not been found sufficient to banish a real case of rheumatoid arthritis, or arthritis deformans. Working from the theory that al theumatic toxemia is responsible, I have seen thousands of cases cured, | Some have had their tonsils and all! their teeth removed without results, and others have been cured with no attempt made to remove such local infections. The amazing thing is that these local infection: usually disappear | when tht patient gets ‘id of the primary causative toxemia! Of | course, in practis: I do not fail to treat local conditions, and always attempt to remove local infections. Abscessed teeth should always be removed, and suitable treatment given the tonsils or other focal points of infection. But there are not more of these sources of infec- tion apparent with rheumatism than with the other common disorders which the physician meets with in his daily practise. almost the same causes, develops an entirely differ- ent disease. Errors, like eating the wrong food, too much food, improper combinations, lack of exercise, waste of encrgy and so on, cause P tism with one who has that tend- ency, and after a cure, bad habits must be replaced with ones or ed same disorder will again de- velop. In tomorrow's article I will ex- plain just how to effect a cure of a chronic case of rheumatism. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS tubercular, from ‘Question: Anxious writes: “A little while ago I was by a.doctor who said I had mitral regurgitation of the heart as well as an exaggerated dorsal curvature of the spine. He .dvised me to quit. all exercise whatsoever. I am six- teen years old and feel that I should forget everything that he told me, but what woul: you advise?” _ Answer: You can at least par- tially correct the spinal curvetire by taking the oroper kind of correc- tive exercises.

K.L asks: “Is there an oil m:de from popp-r seeds that may be used as a salad oil, and is it : good food?” Aly Poppy. oil seston from je poppy seed, is popular Parts of Europe as a table oil. It is of a pale yellow color, practically odor- less, and hes 4 very pleasing flavor. The inferior grades are used in soap making end like products. As far as its food value is concerned it has no especial :nerit. Question: Miss B.

For temporary relief “rub cocoa butter on the skin.
