Kresge Bidg ig (Official City, State and Coun’y Newspaper) —— MOTHER'S DAY | Mother’s day, like Memorial day, belongs to the ecalogue of sentiment. ‘There is a divineness about both, whereby one has ted the encroachments of sport and the other the preemption of commercialization. De- spite these handicaps, both preserve their noble motives: and traditions and exercise the missions which gave them birth in aspirations to honor and to hallow, ‘Tomorrow is Mother's day—cherished opportunity to express love to the living mother, privileged day to pay reverence where only the memory of her survives as the shrine. In this hectic period of loose home ties, this day might well serve to revive that sanctity which bound together the family relationships, centering more than in any other member in the mother. ‘Thoughtful remembrance paid to the genius of the home 1s one of the purest, truest impulses that can move the human soul, and it ts justt- fied in love and duty. Through it, the lofty character of Mother's day can be preserved and transmitted down the years undefiled by base accretions. Anna Jarvis, the Philadelphia woman who inaugure ted the day for the sake of stressing the tie between mother and daughter and lived to see the idea grow into world observance by son as well as daughter, made the carnation the emblem of the day's tribute. In that simple but fitting type of sentiment it can be expressively observed always, but the abnormal demand created on this one day for its type flower has led to general fl expression of its sentiment, so that other flowers and even bouquets have come to share with the carnation as message symbols of love and respect, Other forms of ob- servance have been drafted in the telegram and the let- ter, Gifts also have come to supplement the original badge of reverence and devotion. Nothing, however, can surpass the simple, tender wear- ing of one distinct flower, as was the carnation, as a form of paying the day's tribute. Mother's day ts not an out of the heart in pure and loving emotions, rather, else it will not be akin to her to whom dedicated in love or in remembrance. Celebrate the day reverently. As the Sabbath, re- member it is a hallowed day, sanctified by a holy role and by sacrifice. HOW TO BE HEALTHY A comfortable income is a fair passport to happiness, but only if there 4s good health to complement it. To a greater extent than any other factor good health is the key to an enjoyable existence. Next to the weather, men spend most time narrating their ill-health experiences, To & considerable degree this condition, the doctors as- sert, is man’s own fault. The alternative to poor health 4s sensible exercise; there is a general indictment that as @ people Americans are too ready to watch others dis- port for their amusement and not ready enough to play _ themselves for the good of their health as well as for Now that the out-of-doors days are again in the offing this is a subject worth pondering. It is a peculiar thing that the boy who plays baseball on the vacant lot, who Participates in track, football or basketball activities and thinks his young life inequitably distributed without that devotion to healthful pursuits, is willing to abandon every one of them when he reaches maturity and gen- erally takes his exercise behind the steering wheel of an automobile, For active sport he is willing to sit in the Stands and chew gum. One criticism has been leveled at the educational sys- tem that develops group sports which become inconven- fent for the individual to pursue when the groups are seattered on leaving school, and fails to teach those ath- Jetics which one or a couple can undertake, golf and tennis being examples, If this criticism is valid there Tests none the less on the individual the burden of Proving himself mentally incapable of suggesting a cor- rection in his own case, by supplying the initiative for himself. ‘The greatest corrective of adult ill-health is universal Adult amateur athletics. Men should play themselves as ‘well as watch others. The boy at college does not know ‘the gloomy moments the man experiences worrying about: his stomach, or his head, or his eyes, or his liver; it is incomprehensible to him. Yet within a decade, if he eserts his open-air medicine, he, too, will begin to think twice about pie and be taking advice on the baleful cf- fects of fried foods. ‘The national adult health could be vastly improved, without doubt, if everyone could be induced to resume, in & degree suited to him, the athletics of younger days, | #"Ctly accessible Antarctic wastes may seem a waste of ‘There is merit equally in the modest hike and the more intellectually studied golf ball, in a humble game of hand ball or an abandon of tennis. “The play's the thing.” THE HUMBLE PENNY A business man in the middle west deplores the care- Jess and even scornful attitude of this generation to- ward the penny.

THE EFFICIENT GANGSTER This ts an age of specialization and efficiency. Quick disaster overtakes the man who does not keep himself strictly abreast of all the most modern developments. It isn't surprising, therefore, to read that the Chicago sters have taken over a desolate, wooded island in the Rock river, below Rockford, Il, and made it into a ing ground for their machne gun So the gangsters fixed up a sort of target on it. ‘To the island they sent their machine gun- to spend several days popping away at targets, studying the use of their new weapons with all the nestnes: of a battalion of doughboys preparing for s y outsiders, ‘The machine gun, spraying bullets as a garden hose ; sprays water is one of those weapons with which you can But the gangsters, evi- shod methods ary, even if the ould not be satisfied with any s dently, rpshooter is ended.

HEALTH“DIET ADVICE Dr Frank Mc ‘That state paid $458,000 for its 1927 session, and this year it appropriated $508,500. New York appropriated $1,674,590 for the legislative session of 1928, although the legislators are paid $2,500 a year and 10 cents a mile one trip each way. Consider- ing that Minnesota, which pays legislators only $1,000 for two years, managed to spend almost a third of that sum, and balancing the population statistics, a point would seem to be scored in favor of those who hold that better pay means more economical government. Yet Pennsylvania, which pays its representatives and sena- tors at Harrisburg but $1,500 annually and weekly round- trip mileage of 5 cents, appropriated only $1,257,798 for the 1929 session, This sum represents a fair proportion with New York. The search for economy in government will have to go further. Governor Christianson’s inquiries brought to light one or two ingenious plans in certain states to hold down ex- penses. There ts, for example, the arrangement in Texas and Oklahoma to pay $6 per diem for sixty days and $2 per diem thereafter. But Oklahoma has proved that when it has an interesting impeachment on hand its legislators are not affected by salary cuts. Politics every- where is the parent of expense. FLAGS OVER ANTARCTICA (Minneapolis Journal) at international controversy some day may rage over what flag shall fly above the continent of Antarctica. Conceivably the World Court, unless there is to be a costly war, may be called upon to partition among rival claimants the land area surrounding the South Pole, Commander Richard E, Byrd has been mapping lands never before seen by man, and the probability that Uncle Sam will claim sovereignty over parts of the great southern continent has led the British government, po- litely but formally, to remind Washington that the lands thus surveyed are already claimed for the British empire, by right of Shackleton’s and Scott's discoveries.
