Begin Right and Live Twice
as Long; Health Principles

Plenty Of soap should be used, and
not too hard brush. as well as two
loosely woven washcloths. In drying.
with q Turkish towel: only the face
should be dried with the softer towel.
The child will soon learn to do all
this for himself
The use of the toothbrush is anoth-
er lesson that must be taught; cold
water and some reliable paste, powd-
er or wash are essential. Powdered
charcoal makes good dentifrice, or
precipitated chalk and orris root.
Teach the child to brush the inside Of
the teeth also. and to use an up-and-
down instead of lateral movement.
Surgeons silk should be run between
the teeth after each meal.
There are little points of cleanli-
ness about the child's room that must
be considered also. The bed should be
thoroughly aired each morning, not
simply turned over, but every bit Of
bedclothing taken off and laid on two
chairs before an open window without
touching the floor anywhere. The
nightclothes should be hung up to air
also. and the mattress frequently turn
ed.
In the night the clothes should be
hung up and spread out, not left in .
disorderly heap on the floor. Often
garments are wet with perspiration.
and should be hung over q chair back
or clothestree to dry thoroughly.
In the matter OF clothing. shoes, fling
er nails. ears, hair-all the minor but
30 important details-the child should
be taught the strictest cleanliness.
And thus is learned the last funda-
mental principle Of good health.

IT We all begin right" said doctor

twice as long"
What he meant by that slightly
enigmatic statement was that IL chill
dren were taught from the very be-
ginning the first and fundamental
principles Of good health there would
be less sickness on earth and men as
a whole would live to a ripper old age.
And he Is right. Good air. pure
water. plenty of sleep. sufficient exer-
else. wholesome food and cleanliness
are the six things that a human being
needs to keep him we'll; and every
child. from the time 1t can be taught
at all. should be taught those six.
Good air. That means keeping the
bedroom thoroughly aired. opening all
windows that will not throw draught
on the child during the night. and alb
solutely all In the morning: 1t means
deep breathing exercises and play in
the open air. instead Of in overheated
rooms: 1t means looking nature In the
face. and not postponing a walk or a
romp because of q storm or a touch
Of extra heat or cold.
Pure water. spring water II you can
get II; II not, then the purest you can
obtain. would you rather drink q
cemetery or a menagerie?" a friend
used to ask, who objected to my boil
ing the water I drank. Personally. I
prefer the cemetery. Do not let the

Plenty Of sleep. The healthy child

is plenty late enough. We adults can
vary the rule n We will. but early to
bed and early to rise" Is an excellent
rule for child.
Sufficient exercise. In general there
Is no need OF urging this upon . child:
over exercise Is far more common
fault. But some children seem mac
tive by nature. and must be trained to
take power exercise. which will bring
every muscle into play and induce
deep breathing. The old-fashioned
ring games are the best possible
means to this end.
Wholesome foods. No fried foods.
no tea or coffee, no highly spiced
dishes. but any amount Of milk and
bread and butter and well-cooked meal
and fascinating vegetables and
green's. Soup Is always a good choice
for q growing child. and such vegeta-
bles as spinach and lettuce keep eyes

Big Damages Against the S. P.
Briefly Told

Tombstone-Upon receipt of a
check for $4,000 the damage
suit brought by Mrs. Neal Nc
Ginnis i'll behalf of herself and
chrildren is settled. The action
holds the record in the district
court OF Ell Paso for damages,

The plaintiffs brought action
against the Southern Pacific for
the death of engineer Neal Nc

McGinnis was we'll known in
Arizona and visited Tombstone
on several occasions.
From the district court h {

Phoenix to Vote on Sewer System.

PhoeniX-The city council has
approved and accepted the plans
Of Olmsted & Gellellen for deep
sewer and called an election on
the proposition of voting $40O,-
900 bonds for the construction
of the sewer, the election to be
held April 7. Commenting edi
torially on the project the Ari-
zona Republican says:
From the organization of the
city government no city council
of Phoenix ever before took a step
of so much Importance as was
done last night when the plans
for a sewer were definitely decid-
ed upon and bond election for
Il sewer was ordered.
1t may be added that no city
council was ever before so con
fronted with the need of action.
The rapid growth Of Phoenix
within the last two years-the
extension of the thickly settled
districts and the greater cOnges
ton within the older districts
already thickly settled Ii Il d
brought about n intolerable
condition.
The necessity for an adequate
sewer system is the one PROPOSE
ton on which all Phoenicians
agree; that is, all of them agree
who have care for the future of
Phoenix, for it's healthfulness
and the greater value of its real
estate.
Without other facilities than
those with which we have born
so long there could be no advan-
cement Of values. People who
have come from abroad-from lC--
calities where sewer systems are
regarded as essential as water
systems, found themselves amid
conditions which excited their
disgust and also their fear.
They could not see how, amid
such conditions, epidemics were
to be averted and many of them
so little believed that they could
be averted, that they passed on
to other towns where attention
is given to sanitation.
Within a year we believe that
Phoenix will not have the unen
viable distinction of being the
only town in the United States
of 25, 900 inhabitants which has
no sewer facilities worth speak
ing of.
The proposition to vote $780,
900 of bonds for the installation
of a sewer system will hardly
encounter any opposition. This
is an investment which will ap-
peal to all, to the cupidity, we
may say, of those who desire
higher real estate values and the
patriotic pride of those who care
Only for the fair fame of Phoenix
and for the health and welfare of
it's inhabitants.
! We believe that a transconti-
mental railroad will be the great
st stimulus to our growth t
But hardly more of stimulant
than a new sewer system. With
out a sewer system Phoenix is
already big enough-yes, too big.

fact that the merchants IF the state
will be given free ticket to the avia-
ton meet under the auspices of the
fair association. q number of those
present at the meeting todav were of
the opinion that there is 4 possibility
of there being at least 1900 registra-
tions-
1t is the custom to furnish three
days of entertainment for the uler-
chants. but the exact time of holding

at least one day of the season of fes-
tivities will be during the aviation
week
There have been many suggestions
in regard to the entertainment of the
visiting merchants, but a program has
not as vet been made out. Street car
and VinewOod privileges Will probably
be secured and a free performance at
the Majestic is being considered.
Merchants of the city will be asked
to decorate their places Of business
