But those worthies had_ refer- ence to something more potent than the mere coveiings of the skin. They refer- red to mental powers, sympathetic under- standing, charity, kindness, chastity and other forms of refinement that go to make up a gentleman. In his Labor Day speech at Chicago General Hugh Johnson said that the radio and moving pictures enable the people to know instantly what is going on, which ap- pears ag a deliberate omission of what the newspapers have done for the NRA so far, ‘been done by health authorities, THE TWO PURPOSES OF SAVING There are two possible exigencies against which our savings are designed to protect us and our dependents—prema- ture death and old age. : Both, it is obvious, cannot occur to the Same person. Any sound savinys system must be so planned as to cover either one, or it is 50 percent short of protection. Life insurance and annuities _ have been adapted to meet both of these futur- ities. The first pays a definite sum to beneficiaries on death. An overwhelming majority of men become dependents in old age, with their savings and investments gone and their pe- riod of earning capacity passed. The an- nuity exists to prevent this. It is writ- ten in various forms to fit various needs, but every annuity is essentially the same, in that is assures a steady income, no mat- ter how long one may live. We pay for it little by little when our income-produc- tion is high—and we get it back when we need money most, It is old-age protec- tion of the highest character and if univer- | sally sold would eliminate doles and poor- houses, In Europe, the annuity is one of the most popular forms of insurance. Perhaps the Americans’ speculative character has prevented it from attaining as much popu- lavity here. But if the lessons of the last tow years have ' béen really learned, the annuity is going to be very much in the public eye frora now on. MILK CONSUMPTION Like other products of the farm, milk and cream have suffered a decline in price during the last three or four years, with the result that dairymen and small producers have had difficulty in marketing these pro- ducts at a price which would pay the cost of production. An official of the Department of Ag- riculture has pointed out that the encour- agemenc of a greater use of milk would benefit both the producers and the public. The per capita consumption of milk in the United States is much lower than in several other countries. Although much valuable work has home demonstration agents and parent-teachers associations in the direction of educating the public to the nutritive value of milk and milk products, we still use far less milk than would be good for us. This applies to adults as well as to children. By drinking an extra pint of milk a day nearly everyone might enjoy personal benefits, in addition to aiding a most wor- thy national sealystey, ” DRESS UP! Tourist season will soon be here and the people of Key West should start now to dress up the city for them. Painting, replacing needed woodwork repairs, trim- ming shrubs, etc., should be started now, so that a check up can be made and the loose ends of the program caught up. This season is expected to be one of the best thab has been had for several years, “The Flovida exhibit at the Century‘of Progress. has enthused people. from all over the world, and tourist Mecéa this year will un-| doubtedly. be Florida.

That seems te serve no- tice on the newspapers, including The Cit- izen, that their efforts are superfluous. Re- cently The Citizen printed a full page ad- vertisement which the general begged it to publish and which was published at no cost to the government. It was not expected that a letter of thanks would follow in ap- preciation, but to ignore the newspapers entirely in a publie speech while giving all the credit te other public agencies of pub- licity, appeared a deliberate act. The Selma Times-Journal, comment- ing on this suggestion, points out that only about one bill in 100 of those introduced in Congress ever becomes aiaw. Therefore, a robot Congressman pledged to vote “no” on every proposal made would have a bat- ting average of about 99 percent. It might be added that of the one per- cent of bills actually passed and appreved by the president, a fairly large portion could be eliminated without any material damage to the country.
