Criminals, even the cleverest among them, CAN BE CAUGHT by per- sistent and painstaking search and investigation. The methods used by the G-men are not disclosed to the public generally but they are no secret among police officers who want to know. The government is ready and willing to help train men in the job of catching crooks. It has done so in the past and will do so again. Another benefit conferred upon the public by the federal operatives is the effectiveness with which they have stripped the criminal of whatever glamour he might possess. There was a time when the weak-minded were tempted to believe that banditry was a really successful pursuit. John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and the members of the Barker-Karpis gang seemed to ply their trade with immunity. It did seem that, in exchange for a few moments of risk, the gangsters made enough money to enable them to lead the life of Riley. And the risk seemed none too great. Then the law’s vise began to close on them. The gangsters ‘were scattered. They were hunted down relentlessly. All the members of the Dillinger gang are dead or in prison. The same holds true for the Barker-Karpis mobsters. They have come to the end of the trail and their record is an inglorious one. To duplicate the record of the G-men all the police forces of our states and cities need is the same kind of training, the same kind of equipment and the same kind of support which the fed- eral operatives have. Not only must the policemen themselves want to catch crooks, their BOSSES must want the crooks cap- tured and judges must cooperate to see that they are properly punished. In addition to these things, parole boards must see “that the sentences imposed are carried out. The same system which permits the capture of BIG crim- inals will lead to the capture of LITTLE criminals, for all the big criminals were minor offenders at the start of their lawless careers. It is distinctly up to the public, the final arbiter of all pub- lic questions in this country. A cop who can’t be “fixed” on a minor charge may be un- pleasant to deal with on some occasions but he is a good thing for the country in the long run. The same is true of prosecu- ~ tors and judges who are above reproach. The people can have such administration of the law if they want it, but as long as they insist that their public officials be “good fellows” on frequent occasion it is obvious that they don’t want it; that they would prefer to keep on footing the 18 BIL- LION DOLLAR crime bill which the nation pays each year. The Widow’s Might : Death in Bismarck of Mrs. Catherine Knudtson reveals a _ eaga of these prairies which is duplicated, in more or less detail, by thousands of other stories which could be told of the women who settled this region. In the truest sense of the word she was a pioneer, for she came, a widow with six children, from Norway to this country to make a living by the fruits of her toil. Widowed by a sea disaster which took her husband’s life, she packed her little brood and set forth for a Jand which was unknown to her and in which she was unknown. ° Who can realize, now, the forebodings which accompanied that trip; the qualms and doubts which assailed this valiant woman? Who can realize the hardships both of body and spirit which she endured? But the land of her adoption was good to her—even as she was good to it. It enabled her to bring up her brood and to give it an education. i And she, in turn, gave two of her sons in its defense when @anger dawned. One of those sons is dead, a victim of war's tragedy. Another lies on a bed of pain in Bismarck, war-born pain which will continue for him as long as he lives. _ The glory of this story is that it is not unusual. It is typical of the attitude and the sacrifices which other mothers have | gmade. It is one of the biggest causes for the glory of America. 2 It is also a challenge to this country to see that this glori- ous spirit is maintained; that America continues to be the land of opportunity for their children and their children’s children ‘which these pioneer women visioned it.

Each and every one of these schemes is likely to impair nutrition, especially if the victim actually loses any weight to speak of, and we know now that not only is it unnecessary to interfere with nutrition in order to correct obesity but proper treatment should and does distinctly improve general health and nutrition while the superfluous flesh is being disposed of. wilgee WitO or gland extracts of any description which purport to reduce ht without danger are dangerous humbugs. “ Mineral water derivatives or glorified salts purporting to “slenderize can have as much effect on corpulency as an equivalent dose of plain Epsom salts, and even a dimwit would not seriously attempt to correct fleshiness with physic. Any weight lost in that way is merely the weight of water ex- - creted thru the intestine, and that, like water lost by profuse sweating, a5 from a hot bath of some kind, is replaced within 12 to 24 hours—or else! It is indeed dangerous to withdraw large quantities of water from the body if water or liquid beverages are not freely taken to satisfy thirst. So-called “reducing” exercises are sometimes beneficial, sometimes de- .| trimental, according to the individual condition, but so far as reducing su- HH E Course Is Offered A new adult education class in land- that the Capital Laundry, established | fered this year a third vault, with 24-inch jof joyed.

Some time ago you told of a remedy that quiets the nerves before taking an examination, for instance . . . (I. W.) Answer—No. It doesn’t quiet the nerves. The remedy is quinine. I suggested that the vague dread of an ordeal such as delivering a speech, singing to an audience or trying an examination may be eased by taking one grain of quinine (preferably the bisulphate, or as second choice the sul- phate, in capsule or tablet or pill) three times @ day, after meals, for a week or ten days before the ordeal. Color Deficiency’ My Job is window trimming. I fear I am going to lose it because of & color deficiency. I have difficulty distinguishing shades of color. (8. J.) Answer—I can offer only two tentative suggestions. First, be sure to get an optimal ration of vitamin A. Second, if you smoke, stop it. Tobacco sometimes causes color blindness, Acid Feod How can one differentiate between an over alkaline and an overacid condition of one’s system? ... (M. A.) Kindly tell me whether the following foods are acid or alkaline in effect on the system: Lean meat, Lima beans, green peas, peanuts, lemon juice, orange juice, milk, ... (J. E.) Answer— fuss about such technical points? There is no practical significance or value in knowing the answers. One can't differentiate between acid or alkaline condition of the blood. All guesswork about that is the veriest twaddle of charlatans. Meat is acid, bean: alkaline, peas al- kaline, peanuts acid, lemon and orange alkaline, milk neutral or slightly Tebacce and Blood Sugar increases the blood sugar.... (J. J. D.).
