PEcK,s BAD COY.

HE HERALD takes pleasure in an
nouncing its newest Sunday fea-
ture, "Peck's Bad Boy Abroad" A
generation Of boys has grown up since
the original 'Pecks Bad Boy" made his
appearance, and they viii welcome his
new instailment Of fun as heartily as
though they were still boys. For, as
You viii doubtless remember. the
dolngs Of this versatile youngster were
relislrd as heartily by adults as by
the youngsters. The boy Of old was
and the new boy is as clean. wholesome
and entertaining humor as any Amer
lean has produced.
The author and creator of "Peck's
Bad Boy is. as most Of you win re-
member. George W. Peck. twice gov
error Of Wisconsin and a candidate
now on the Democratic ticket for the
same place. Governor Peck was made
famous by his first series. Though he
demonstrated during his able admins
trations as Wisconsin's chief executive
that he has abundant talent in other
directions, it was said when he first en-
tered politics that his Bad Boy had
a lot to do with electing him.
However that may be, the main fact
is that "Peck's Bad Boy" is to visit US
again. His sayings and his doings will
appear exclusively in The Sunday Her
aid, beginning tomorrow. Nobody can
afford to miss a single installment.

So many diseases are known now to
be preventable. 50 many are caused by
an absence OF simple precautions. The
lack Of such precautions is not always
due to carelessness. Oftener than not

there charges OF. one sort or another
were pending against him.
Nevertheless. he managed to retain
his grip on Kentucky politics so well
that when he was finally recalled from
Honduras he claimed q residence in the
Eleventh district apd actually induced
bis fellow Republicans there to give
MIN the congressional nomination. He
was elected, Of course. Any. Republican
can be elected in the Eleventh Ken
lucky district because the percentage
OF illiteraey is far heavier there than
IN any other Kentucky district.
Now the willy doctor seems to be
down and out. His committee has de-
eided against him, and with his record
1t is not likely that he will be able TO
land another government position.
