SUNSHINE NOT GOOD FOR ALL
Blonde Races Fall to Thrive In cil
mate Like That Of the Amor
lean Northwest.

Charles E. Woodruff of Manila, P. l..
discusses In the Medical Record the
physical degeneration that is found to
occur in north European races when
they settle in the dry: bright atmos-
phere Of the American northwest.
Although the first generation does
well. the second one Is feeble, easily
attacked by tuberculosis and other
chronic diseases, and the families die
out in few generations. The bru-
nette races do well In bright sunshine,
because they are accustomed to it,
while the blondes are made nervous
2by It. But it Is the northern blonde
races that give us the strong brains
that we need to perpetuate our ma
ton, and these do not come from the
brunette races Of the south. It is i'm.
portant for us to preserve these
blonde types. and to that end It Is
necessary that physicians should ad.
wise them to keep from the influences
that injure them. The best Aryan

Observed
Arbor Day

Reports from a few of our
county schools state that Arbor
day was appropriately ausd diligently
celebrated. Miss Bessie Grier and
scholars Of near Sawyer spent the
entire day in planting trees making
flower beds, cleaning the SCHOOL yard
and talking end reading concerning
the day and its real value. This shows
a good working spirit in our county
schools. Our wish is that many teach
ers believed as Miss Grier and gave
their pupils valuable change Of work
