State of Wyoming recently refused * to. permit, doctors to treat their daughter, ' © asserting that they believed in “the‘Lord’s promises in the Bible.” The child, suf- fering from spinal meningitis, died, de- | eo spite the father’s admission that “we’re ~ looking to the Lord to cure Frances June” ‘« and the mother’s assertion that “God will ™. heal her.” : Admitting the sincerity of the par- ents in their reliance upon the Lord to cure the little girl, one nevertheless must conclude that their blind faith was more the product of ignorance than of religion. é ™ * We do not mean that the parents i were illiterate or unlearned. What we + imply is that they interpreted the read- ing of God’s word in a manner which > proved disastrous to their little girl. An intelligent approach, in our opinion, would involve aceeptanee of the progress of medical science in the treatment of the disease. ; | In the ! same newspapers, _ telling about the little girl who died, was a news dispatch from Athens, Greece, telling is Metal e eats HELPING OURSELVES» ‘ A Chamber of Commerce can do its publicity work effectively only when it has sufficient funds with which to carry , on its activities. Edwin Trevor, president of the Key West Chamber of Commerce, evidently is aware of that condition, according to what he said on Saturday ina story in The Citizen. Too often boards of trade and cham- bers of commerce in Key West have been handicapped by the need of funds. As a result, publicity they wish to give the city could not be obtained because they did not have the money to pay for it. Many persons in Key West as well as elsewhere seem to be under the impres- sion that a city ean get publicity without paying for it. But a city is like any other corporation, public or private; it has to pay for what it gets in the line of boosting its attractions. As Key Westers generally may re- call, Key West has had efficient men be- fore at the head of its boards of trades or chambers of commerce, but they could not do the work they wished to do because of financial difficulties. Key Westers, partciularly business men, should realize that when they con- | tribute to their Chamber of Commerce, they are promoting the welfare of their city and, therefore, helping themselves. The Citizen trusts there will be a gen- erous response to President Trevor’s ap- peal for money to pay for the many ac- tivities the Chamber of Commerce has in view to promote the progress of Key West. The eitizen who has no appreciation in life hasn’t been properly educated. With few exceptions the average person has a belief that he, or she, is just a bit different from all other specimens of humanity. FARMERS AND FOREIGN AFFAIRS The American farmer who receives such copious showers of praise from the American politician, ean stand, perhaps, some criticism. Professor William G. Mather, of Pennsylvania State College, says that the American farmer is becoming “self-center- ed and self-satisfied” and has “amazingly little concern for people beyond his local parish.” The observation, we: point out, applies equally to non-farmers. The sociologist went on, however, to say that it is not very important what a farmer plants on his back forty acres, but that somebody should persuade him that it is terribly important what happens in Palestine, or Greece, or Argentina. This remark, we insist, applies to many Ameri- cans not interested in farming, as well as to the residents of rural areas. The other day, we received a letter from a man who complained of the in- creasing attention that the newspapers are paying to affairs in foreign countries. The gentleman admitted that his interests were with local affairs, which, he thought should receive greater attention. About the best answer that can be made to this complaint is to remind the writer that American dead are coming back home for the last time from foreign ” | @ + ™ that King Paul has a case of typhoid fe- | theaters of war.
