THE TEACHING OF PHYSIOLOGY.
The Iowa Health Bulletin, issued by


the state board of health, puohshes an
article this month from the magazine
Life and Health urging that the
study of physiology in tn. schools be
made more personal in its application.
An instance was cited where class
of forty boys averaging ten years OF
age was having recitation on the
physiology of digestion. The use OF
the teeth, mouth, saliva and gastric
Juice were considered and the answer
given showed the results of good
teaching. but when the exercise was
over there was left the feeling of in
completeness. What had the boys
gained that was useful? Some knowl-
edge of the processes of digestion. But
how were they to make use of this
knowledge? So far it was general
knowledge only Could any part of it
he made personal? Why, yes, the part
the teeth play In the process of d.
gestion might be made personal. Ques.
lions were then asked concerning the
value of the teeth. What would hap
pen if there were too few teeth or none
at all? What caused loss of tetth?
What were the evil results of rotten
leSLQs nc DCyS "CAC Od6oi w CIV
swer these questions, edged out OF
seats, waved hands frantically, scoWl-
ed at wrong answers and when called
upon to answer stood erect by the
deck and proudly gave what they con-
sidered correct answers. To the final
question, How many of you boys have
cleaned your teeth this morning there
was but one response. One boy In e
class of forty had cleaned his teeth
that morning. The other boys sat de-
jectedly in their seats, ashamed. Fur
Their questioning showed that more
than one-half of these boys made no
use Of the toothbrush at all, the others
only occasionally.
The writer in the magazine believes
that instead Of the usual methods Ut
studying physiology more time should
be given to the study of personal by
giene made simple and attractive. The
interest in physical development and
the care of the body this would bring
would give the child knowledge that
would permit him to cooperate intelll-
gently with parents and school author
files in safeguarding his health.

A New Book Used Tor swearins I'm
OF Each President.

v W. H
A New Book Used Tor swearins An
OF Each President.
That the incoming President always
takes the oath Of Office on a Bible and
that the chief Justice Of the United
States administers the oath is general
~ known, but where the Bible comes
from is a fact concerning which the
public knows much less. The n who
Is able to give more information ON
this subject than any other is James
H. McKenney. clerk OF the Supreme
Court, who Is the man who always has
the sacred book at the right place at
the right time, and In whose hands,
strange to say. It always so opens that
the august parsonage who is about to
pledge his fidelity to the constitution
and the best interests Of the United
States finds his palm resting on some
passage which Is an augury Of good
for all concerned The purchase Of the
book is n of the ''perquisites'' Of the
clerk.
I'VE do not use our century-old Bible
for the swearing in Of Presidents"
said Mr.. Mckinney, recently, 'but 1t
often happens that the clerk supplies a
new book for the occasion. 1t In the
intention that the man who takes the
oath Of Office should have the volume
as a keepsake, and II generally trans
pires that his family, II not himself,
set much store By n Not always, how
ever, o even In q majority Of cases,
are we called m - surpey q new book,
for 1t frequently haYpme that the
President or some mamber Of his fam
fly is the owrsg % some treasured
volume Of SAe Scriptures which 1t is
desired thAk ne should use on this sa-
cred ana important occasion.
This was the case when Mr.. Cleve-
land was inaugurated. He was the
owner OF a small Bible, not larger than
your hand, and which apparently had
seer much usage. His mother had pre-
scented 1t to him when he was a boy,
and he had treasured V we since.
When he was consulted about taking
the oath. whsp FIRST inRugurated as
President. he STATED that ne desired his
mothers present should b used for
this purpose. When the oath was ad.
ministsred to him at the beginning Of
his second administration the same vol
no was again brought forward and
presented as the n ON which he
should make his pledges.
"Quite In contrast with this little
volume was the one used in admins.
terins ne oath to MI. Mckinley. The
negro bishope Joined together and pre-
sented to MI. Mckinley n Of the big
gest books l have ever seen. II was an
extraordinarily large family Bible,
bound in heavy moocco, trimmed in
gold and stored in a much ornamented
box. / remember very well that I was
quite tagged ont from carrying 1t to
the Ssnate sAambsr and from that
chamber O the platform in front Of
the OApseeA
.YSestdsnt Roosevelt was sworn in
ON q Bible which had been used for
ne same purpose when he was inaugu-
rated Governor Of New York"
