TAFT, it seems, has barred the
practice OF the Christian Science
methods of disease treatment in the
Panama Canal zone. An executive
order makes it unlawful to practice
without a license secured from the
Board OF Health of that district,
naming a fine of twenty-five dollars
and imprisonment not to exceed
thirty days as the penalty. The or
der provides that: Any person
shall be regarded as practicing medi-
cine within the meaning of the order
who shall prescribe for, operate on,
or in anywise attempt to sheal. cure
or alleviate, or who shall in anywiSe
treat any disease or any physical or
mental ailment of another. This
clause, the Scientists claim, covers
their case exactly The Board of
Health would not issue them licenses
even if they would apply for them.
which their faith forbids, and they
are outside of the law when they en-
deavor to practice without a license.
ii any doubt existed with reference
TO its intent, it must be borne in
mind that before Indian Territory
was made into the State of Okla
homa, and when it was under the
supervision OF Congress as Terri
tory, its medical practice act ex-
empted Christian Scientists by name.
The League of Medical Freedom will
take up the matter and Congress
sional action will be sought On the
ground that the order is a violation
OF the Constitutional guaranty of re-
ligious liberty.

how difficult it was to the aboriginal
mind in the early days of our pio-
neer history. 1t was impossible to
elicit more than grunt of recOgni-
ton for any Of the wonders unfOlded
before their eyes. The first steam
ship to the Sound, the first locomotive
and train Of cars, the first telegraph,
ELECTED no more than q passing
glance without inquiry or comment.
Everything was taken as a matter
Of course, and regarded with stolid
indifference. This trait has often
been q matter of inquiry as being the
result of self-control, or of incapacity
for grasping the magnitude of the
subjects involved. Either horn Of
the dilemma involves equal difficulty
of belief. Even the brute creation
have frequently manifested curiosity
in passing events that very seldom
could be accorded to the noble red

AT recent meeting of the Wash

was the general impression that our

boys and girls for the things that
they are fitted for. AS most Of the

must do something to make farm life
more attractive. Accordingly, reso-
lutions were adopted favoring a con-
solidation OF the rural schools OF the

assistant to the State Superintendent.

who did not were more liberal from

CURIOUS indeed are the workings
of the new Employers Liability Law
in this State. The initial decisions
being made by the commission in
charge are particularly interesting,
because they will, in large measure
become precedeuts. This week. an
Italian laborer has been awarded $40
for injuries to a thumb; and last
week, the commission allowed SS1 to
the beneficiaries of one of the young
women who was killed in the powder
mill explosion at Chehalis. There is
considerable speculation as to just
how the commissioners came to the
conclusion that a girls life is only
worth a little more than twice the
money value placed on laborer's
thumb.
