Opportunities for the Coming Generation | Every generation, says Henry Ford, leaves more oppor- S! tunities than it found. Ford, of course, referred. chiefly to those opportunities - that are connected with jobs. But his remark holds good all along the iine. Everything that is done today is going ) to beget a challenge for the next gencration. | ‘We know pretty well what our own opportunities have “been. We have made the most of some of them, and we p have slipped pretty sadly on some others. But the next | € generation—what sort of opportunities will we leave for it? It Is hard to tell what will happen in the world in the | $.06se next 30 years, but this much secms certain; the human = race is reaching @ point where its chances to lift itself et. by its own bootstraps, on the one hand, or to ruin itself DWligi eternally, on the other, are greater than they ever were an ‘Things have happened too fast in the last couple of = decades, and the pace shows no signs of slackening.

F; methods of transportation and communication have given every human being a billion next door neighbors. _ Besides that, we have new tools. For the first time, it 4s possibl for men to make things infinitely faster than |! they can ure them. We are reaching a stage where—in f theory, at least—there will be no shadow of an excuse for or want. It may be that the brotherhood of man is just around ; } corner.

He developed his surprising theory like this: Ever since America was settled, the population has been on the move. From colonial times onward, there have been unsettled places to fill up. Individuals and families have kept in motion, swinging from the cast coast to the west without ceasing. Today the free land is gone; but the amazing progress of modern industry is providing a similar situation, as cities develop new manufacturing districts and draw thousands from the surrounding coun- tryside to work in them. The result, he says, is that few families get rooted to one rpot. A man may be born and grow to manhood in Philadelphia, for instance; his son, instead of settling Gown there, moves to St. Louis for his work; and his son, in turn, wanders about and finally establishes him- self in Denver. The family that stays in one city, gen- (eration after generation, is the exccption. We are so used to this sort of thing that we take it for granted. We are not yet settled into grooves; and while we are considered a nation of conservatives, in a political stnse, the truth is tint no people on carth is so ready to accept radical changes in ‘ts social and economic order. In other words, we are restless, Most of our troubles &nd most of our blessings grow out of this fact. Stability and contentment are fine things. Taken together, they conatitute the goal that nearly every man sets himself. Yet no man, once he has attained them, ever amounts to much afterward. Achievement springs out of discontent. The man who is forever restless and dissatisfied, forever looking for “something better,” forever believing that there must be ‘a better way of doing, of living, of creating, than he now has, is the man who accomplishes things. And the same thing is true of a nation as a whole. Because we are so restless, Europeans who visit us go home shaking their heads and remarking that we have everything but happiness. It is our restlessness that makes young novelists sit down and write books ber ing the fruitless sterility of our “machine civilization.” The same thing is responsible for our high divorce rate, our “crime waves,” our lack of vencration for law. And—by the same token—it is our restlessness that causes our progress. We who are now living probably will not survive to see the goal to which our eternal, restless activity is bringing us, But it will be reached just the same. Something very marvelous lies just over the horizon. Our restless- ness will some day be justified—not for us, but for our children. China and Russia appear to have added a novelty to peace negotiations in the form of @ bullets and cannon ball accompaniment. The war has been over for 11 years and nations are still squabbling over who owes who and how much and when at must be paid. If California realtors neglected to play up that eastern earthquake in their sales talks they wouldn't be realtors. Edison, the Wonder Man «Washington Star) For more than half a century Thomas A. Edison has been a figure before the American people, intimate, close and regarded with growing affection. He has become a veritable institution. Despite the long lapse of years he has not been viewed as subject to the advance of age, for he has kept steadily, constantly at work. Time has taken so little toll of him that he has seemed immune to it. The “wizard” of Menlo Park has carried on in his labora- tory apparently as industriously during the past decade as a quarter of a century ago. He is now cighty-two and half as the almanac shows, but to the people generally he is still young in spirit and, it would almost seem, in body as well. So it is that the announcement that he has recently been suffering from an attack of pneumonia, a desperately dangerous discase at best and especially so in advanced years of life, comes with a shock. It brings viv- idly to mind the fact that Edison is now at the age where ailment may any time carry him over the then one knows nothing of the power of itable spirit as his, which may carry him on for decade. He has lived a remarkable life and he may li to a remarkable age. The coupled with assurance of his recovery from the present attack. He undoubtedly feels that he has muc! remaining to do. The true scientist knows that his work indeed is never finished. Great as have been the marvels coming from the Edison laboratories, in the past titty | or sixty years, there may be even greater to come in the twilight of this wonderful life. A Naval Race Would Be a Tragedy (Duluth Herald) Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald, speaking to the assembly of the League of Nations in Geneva recently, said that the British government declines absolutely to race the United States in navy-building, or to build against the United States. And he added that he was not speaking merely for the Labor government, but for the Conservatives, too. This word is good to hear, and it should call out a like word from responsible authority in this country. Nothing could happen that would be more shockingly tragic than to have these two great English-speaking na- tions take the path of naval rivalry that leads most surely to war, If such peoples as these cannot manage to avoid war- like that, then peace in the world is a hopeless dream. Fortunately, there is smal danger now of that tragedy. Both countries have their stu Jingoes and their big. navy fanatics, but both countries, too, have common sense. spi the Labor gavernment, or British na- tion; it is the spirit of the British people and of the American people too.

Cochran, | ral | ‘THE CHILD WITHIN (By Alice Judson Peale) | The child that causes the most | trouble frequently is not the chubby supper, but the one who sits at the | head of the table and lives behind a Parent is most difficult of all. It is a fact well known to psychol- | disciplining a six-year-old is nothing j compared to the task of disciplining | the child who lives within each one of us and plays havoc with our best intentions. Many a child who presents a prob- lem to his father and mother does so because his parents are themselves still swayed by childish needs and | feelings. Of course they call by dig- nified names the fears, resentments ind inadequacies which, when mir- rored in their children, they so sin- | cerely deplore. The childishness of parents reacts direct and indirect. Most often children im itate their parents’ faults of char- acter. So faithful is the copy that outsiders, looking on, marvel at the influence of “heredity” instead of at- tributing the phenomenon to imita- tion which, in truth, it is. Again and again we see children whose bad temper, irritability, and nervousness are but the final expres- sion of a series of causes and effects waich come back at last to the faulty adjustment and lack of poise which characterize their parents’ lives. It is not easy for anyone of us to control the child within, yet until we have done so, we can expect little of our children. Youth Gets Year for Liquor Law Violation Valley City, N.

Many people are of the opinion that cucumbers are an indigestible food. This is because those who have a tendency to belch notice the taste of cucumbers predominating over the other flavors. Usually cucumbers are caten with a meal of indigestible combinations, and as they are served with vinegar, onions or starch, they receive the blame for the discomfort produced by the other foods simply because of their persistent flavor. There is no reason for believing that cucumbers are any more indigestible than raw cabbage, carrots or celery, and they are certainly more agree- able to most people than radishes, onions or green peppers. Cucumbers may be secured through- out the year; although the natural crop occurs during the summer, in winter they must be raised in a hot- house. The summer varieties have 2 generally more acceptable and juicier texture than the hot house varieties grown in winter, which, out of sea- son, may sell for as high as 60 cents! each. Cucumbers are especially rich in potassium, iron, magnesium and lime, and for this reason are valuable pro- tective foods to use in the diet. They should be eaten fresh, as they are more valuable than when consumed in the form of pickles. The old-fash- ioned notion that cucumbers should not be eaten until soaked in salt wa- ter is no longer accepted. In peeling cucumbers it is a good plan to peel them from the blossom end toward the stem end, and in this way one avoids the bitter juice which is found near the surface toward the stem end. The skins are also whole- some, but a little more difficult to di- gest than the center. Very few people have tried cooked cucumbers, and yet they are delicious when served in this way. The peeling may or may not be removed before they are put in the pan with a little water, cooked, mashed and served with butter. The consider they are more difficult to digest in| (this form. They should never be eat- | ‘en with vinegar, which has a tendency to cause flatulence, especially if eaten with any starchy foods. A large combination salad made of fresh tomatoes, lettuce and cucum- bers is often used by patients desiring ‘to add valuable mineral salts and vita- mins to the diet. This combination factory reducing diet if no other food jis used. The bulky cellulose contained in salads of this sort are beneficial to the teeth and in assisting to overcome constipation. An unusual salad but quite appetiz- ing can be made of chopped spinach, nasturtium leaves and blossoms, and 1A Soe cucumbers. Cucumbers and water- cress also make a good combination.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Tuberculosis Question: E. 8. writes: “We have adopted a child who was born of &@ consumptive mother. She is 9 years old, Has tubercular glands in her | neck. Do you think there is any way | of preventing consumption in this child? Will it help any to have these tubercular glands pierced? She has many of them.” Answer: Young children frequently have glandular enlargements which are not necessarily tubercular. Thesc can be cured by diet even if they are tubercular. Lancing these glands will only make more trouble. as an added burden is thrown on the other lym- phatics. Write for a special article on the cause and cure of swollen glands. Spices Question: Mrs. R. P. H. writes:, “Please advise what you think about spices.” Answer—The main fault I have to find with spices is that they tend to over-increase the appetite which en- courages one to eat more than he ‘would otherwise. There is no doubt but what all condiments have some irritating effect upon the mucous membranes of the stomach and in- testines, and therefore may be one of the causes in the development of the stomach and duodenal ulcers. Headaches Question: M. G. R. asks: “What causes headaches on top of the head. and is tea bad for one’s nerves? 1 always notice I am more nervous af- ter drinking tea. Is buttermilk good for one?” Answer: Headaches in the top of the head frequently come from sys- titis or some form of bladder irrita- tion. I do not consider a moderate amount of tea drinking bad for the herves, but find that nervous people seem to like to drink hot drinks, as more quieted just after- wards. Buttermilk is a good food, but must not be considered a “drink.” It should be used as a meal, and not in addition to other food.” (Copyright, 1929, ty The Bell Syn- dicate, Inc.)
