We think of tionary War heroes and ignore the hard-working Ben- struggling colonies. But the letter of George III shows that pressure at home, rather than geverses at arms in America, caused the tenacious king to acknowledge defeat. The letter in question was addressed to Thomas Town- Shend, secretary of state in Lord Shelburne’s administra- tion, and reads as follows: "Windsor, Nov, 19th, 1782, 10 P. M. “Mr. Townshend may send the messenger to Paris with the draft of the preliminary articles and the dispatches as soon as they are ready without the waiting for my seeing the latter; he cannot be sur- prised at my not being over anxious for the peru of them as parliament having to my astonish come into the ideas of granting a seperation to North America, has disabled me from longer defend- ing the just rights of this kingdom. But I certainly disclaim thinking myself answerable for any evils that may arise from the adoption of this ™ as necessity not conviction has made me su to it. “(Signed) G. R.” (George Rex) The ruddy old monarch evidently was somewhat choleric when he wrote the letter and may have revised it when he cooled off a bit, for he mace two corrections. Originally he wrote of parliament granting “independ- ence” to the colonies but crossed that out and wrote “a seperation” above it. The word “independence” was a little too harsh for a proud spirit, although Rex” knew it was the word to use. of this kingdom” but changed that to “defendin such rights. He evidently remembered that his efforts to “sustain” the power of the crown in the colonies had not been strikingly successful. With this approval of the king, grudgingly given, ‘Townshend transmitted to the American delegates at Paris the articles mentioned, delivering them to Adams, Franklin and Jay on November 25, 1782. They were em- bodied in the preliminary articles of peace between the new-born United States of America and Great Britain, signed five days later. The Literate Redman ‘Those persons who look hopelessly upon efforts to educate the Indian may learn something from a test conducted recently on the Blackfoot reservation in Montana. For two weeks, according to a report by N Cora Commissioner Charles J. Rhoads, 236 Indians attended an illiteracy clinic at Browning, Montana, They ranged in age from 22 to 84 years and were ju reservation Indians, none of whom knew how to write in the white man’s language. The results, according to the persons in charge, “equalled and in many cases surpassed the attainments in the same length of time of native-born white adults.” The instruction work was done by voluntecr teachers from the reservation schools and others from different points in Montana. They were not high-powered instruc- tors but persons such as may be found in the schools of this state and on our own Indian reservations. The demonstration is claimed to have proved that adult Indians are eager for an education and will take advantage of opportunities which are presented to him in the right light. Not the least important result of the clinic, according to those in charge, was that it caused a definitely better throughout the entire reservation. Contests held at the close of the school to determine prize winners were interesting. John Little Blaze, a six- foot redskin who is 58 years old and wears his hair in two braids, won the reading contest after tieing with Susan Red Horn in the first encounter. Scalps Him With His Own Knife, a woman 60 years old, took the prize for writing. Both contests were heid fn the presence of the throng which gathered to sce the class “graduate” from the school and there was no opportunity to cheat. Each contestant, we are told, had occasion by “rooting” lustily for their favorites.

A picture, which held a promi- {nent place in all the advertisements, emphasized a wom- jan's throat. And the day after the first advertisement appeared a flood of letters began to arrive questioning the state- nent that women have Adam’s apples at all. Whereupon the ad writers rushed to the medical authorities to see if they had overlooked an important fact of the female physique. The doctors assured them that their worries were needless; that everyone has an Adam’s apple, although those of men are more promi- nent than those of women. The belief that only men have Adam's apples, widely held in some parts of the world, probably rises from the story of Adam eating the apple in the Garden of Eden. A fable has it that a part of the apple stuck in Adam's throat, thereby causing him some discomfort and giv- ing the rest of us a new contrivance for this complex mechanism we know as our body. It would be hard to either prove or disprove the story erhaps, but the Biblical students tell us that there is no mention made of the apple in Genesis. They say the apple came to be accepted as the forbidden fruit be- cause it was the choice of early painters, with whom Biblical subjects were very popular.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association, and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine With modern scientific methods of controlling birth and with the disin- clination of the average woman to have children early in married life, the problem of securing good children for adoption is being brought more and more frequently to the attention of physicians and institutions. Most of the children who are avail- able for adoption are either illegiti- mate, those abandoned by their par- ents, or those taken away from dis- orderly or vicious parents by legal au- thorities. With such possible sources, it is not surprising that few are of the highest type either physically or mentally. The demand for children for adoption far exceeds the supply. Girls are more often requested than boys, It is important to make certain first of all that there is no chronic blood dis- ease or systemic venereal disorder, In several investigations, illegiti- mate children have been found to be brighter and of better parentage than legitimate children available for adoption. The logic of this fact is easily understood. Sometimes parents want a child to And fre- the heredity. Professor Paul Popenoe mentions denly decided to adopt a baby because Daily Health Service Good Ancestry Is Important in Selecting * Child to Adopt she thought it would look sweet in a coat which she could make from some left-over pieces of white fur. A physician who has had much ex- Perlence in the field says that the Parents usually come asking for gold- en-haired, blue-eyed girls with sweet dispositions. It is merely necessary to take the prospective parents through the nursery in order to cause them to take the first child that may happen to hold its arms out to them. It is important to remember from the point of view of heredity that the child is not only the direct descend- ant of its parents but the sum of all of the ancestry of both for hundreds, of years back, Moreover, nature has extraordinary ways in that it sud- denly projects a black sheep into a thotoughly good family, and raises great statesmen, multimillionaires and intellectual glants out of mud heaps. Beyond this, however, is the | fact that at least 70 per cent of Weight can be placed on the imme- diate parents in the selecting of an infant with a view to getting a clean history from the point of view of mentality and 30 per cent on the in- fluence of the more remote ancestors. Popenoe suggests that it is desirable to pick out a child with as good an- cestry as possible, to pick out the child young, and to take the child only on trial. Because of the diffi- culties involved in the situation, most, institutions having children available for adoption now have definite pro- cedures which they compel prospec- tive parents to follow in order to be assured that satisfactory results will be secured, Bowery flop-house. become speakeasies; which breathed tradition and rode in car- riages.

(Copyright, 1931, NEA Service. Inc.) The Best Exchange (New York Times) Just after the World war an American on his way from Sweden to Berlin on landing at Sassnitz saw a long procession of children under care of a few women leav- ing a train that had just come in from Berlin, He was told that they were German and Austrian children, “outing.” A few minutes later another procession began to emerge from a steamship that had followed his own ship down from Stockholm. On inquiring he learned that these children were also German and Austrian, chiefly Austrian, and that they had returned from an Further questioning revealed that the outing had lasted for a month or more, and that these children had been guests in Swedish homes for that period. The other group, about a thousand, in need of nourishment, were going up to take the places of those returning in good physical state and with a feeling of gratitude toward ni country of their temporary hosts that can never be effaced. Even more hopefully significant of a better day is the hospitality that France is showing German children whose parents are suffering from unemployment. It is more than “a gesture of goodwill”; it is an act of real human kindliness that will do more, if it becomes two- sided and extensive, to prevent future misunderstand- ings and hatreds than any other sort of exchange. The impression made in tender years is not only deeper but more lasting. The committee of the League of Nations on intellectual cooperation might profitably give attention to these exchanges. In the highest ranges na- tional boundaries are ignored in the search of scientific truth. But international antipathies are not easily re- moved from the top. They are cast out most effectually in childhood. . ‘The island of Oleron, where these 200 children of the German unemployed are to be cared for, is France in miniature. When they go back from that isle of delight to Berlin and Hamburg and Leipzig, they will have s dif- ferent picture of Prance and French people in their hearts from the one which their older brothers and sis- ters or neighbors and friends had a decade ago. Such will mean more than those even of students and savants. They cannot be arranged, perhaps, on & larger scale, but what they achieve can in some measure be lished by teachers and books that help the children in the schools of one country, to come into closer Pepenrnse with the children of other lands— paeow 1S NOT A SPARROW: (T BELONGS “TO THE FAMILY OF WEAVER = THIS CURIOUS WORLD te HOU 7 —— THE ROOTS ARE BELIEVED TO BE GRAFTED To THOSE OF ANOTHER TREE NEARBY, TODAY IS THE, GERMAN FOOD ACTION On June 1, 1917, Herr Van Batocki, German food controller, addressed the Reichstag on the food situation. He said in part: “In the occupied territories the crops are a great disappointment to the German authorities, as seed will hardly germinate in ruined soil. Rumania has given as much as could be expected, but it is less than was hoped for by the German population. “With respect to Germany's allies, the situation is not much better. For six years the Turks have struggled for their existence and their production has suffered thereby. The Bulgars are in a similar position. In Austria the situation is worse than in Ger- many.
