WHY HAVE PNEUMONIA
By Eugene L. Fisk, M ID.

1t makes a physician feel like an an
archist when he hears leading states
man" declare that the conservation OF
public health is an "iridescent Dream
when tuberculosis and diphtheria have
lost half their terror and deadliness
through this same conservation. But
thus far pneumonia has withstood the
attacks made upon it. and every year
claims six hundred thousand victims. Ii
that many people fell in war. the whole
world would be in a turmoil. While
science hasn't any certain cure for pneu-
monia, it can prevent it, and this wise,
sound. sensible. entertaining article tells
how 1t can do lot of good if you will
heed it. And whenever we can publish
an article that accomplishes real good we
feel the magazine is living up to what i.
stands for.

HAZING

The article revolves chiefly about the
military and naval academies; but OF
course its application is general. The
vigor with which Admirals Dewey. Bob
Evans, and Schley declare that there was
no hazing in their cadet days, and then
proceed to give striking illustrations that
seem to disprove their assertions, is most
amazing. The plain truth about hazing is
easily arrived at when one draws dis
tinctions. The principle is sound and
good but the familiar execution is usu-
ally pretty bad. There isn't any doubt
in the world that puffed-up youths going
to college for the first time need whole
lot of discipline to make them understand
their proper place. and that students can
make them realize this better than the
faculty. The abuse of hazing is due to the
fact that the normal boy is about the
cruellest creature in the world, until he
learns better. Sounds brutal, doesn't it,
Just to be pleasant, it may be added that
the only exceptions are girls. Before ex-
ploding with wrath. please do little un-
biased investigating and thinking.

SCHOOLS FOR DEFECTIVE PARENTS
By Clara Cahil1 Park

Sounds a trihe paradoxical. doesn't it?
That is because of the twist from what is
familiar. The article is choke full of de-
lightful striking twists which bring home
its ideas. One isn't sure whether it is
more valuable for the lively entertain
nent it provides or for its information SO
attractively presented. For instance.
there is the story of Katy Fitzgerald.
washerwoman. who couldn't sew, and
therefore couldn't teach her children. So
she set about introducing sewing classes
in the public schools, and succeeded.
There are never so many more stories, too.
There's mighty big child welfare move
ment going on in this country which few
of US know anything about, and it is about
the most important of all. Mrs. Park
does know. She is First Vice President
of the Massachusetts, Congress of Moth
ers, which is interesting, and special
ist, which is important.

THE HERO

It's good. red blooded story about
cultivated people. with problem tha.
would bother any man, and charmingly
written. What would you do if you found
that another man was given the credit for
rescuing the girl you loved better than
anybody else, who seemed little beyond
your reach? This was real rescue, and
a very dangerous one. Also the man is
real flesh and blood creature and not i'm
possibly noble. There's another twis.
that makes the story really distinguished.

THURLEY RUxTON
BY Philip Verrill MigheIs

The next instalment of the lively serial
shows in most anlazinO fashion how a
beautiful girl supposed to be Princess
is courted by New York society. and it is
mighty entertaining. New York society
always is. to those who know about it.

Kennewick, Grand View, Toppenish,

The Mob Hill district that put up the

scHLEY DIRECTED; BUT HIS vIcToRYl

Not even the unfortunate and the wholly I'M
called-for controversy Of thirteen years ago as
to who in command of the United States feet
during the battle of Santiago can wipe out or
even obscure the brilliant record of Admiral Win
field Scott Schley or detract one whit from his
distinguished services to his country. Nor
he in any way responsible for the initial bubble
that eventuated in bitter contest over the ques
ton that stirred the country from center to cir
conference Within a week of the great naval
victory following the fight in which he had by
the mereSt accident force of circumstances been

dispatch to the department at Washington to
say: Feel some modification that the newspaper
accounts of July have attributed victory Of
July almost entirely to Victory was Sc
cured by the force under the commander n-chef
Of the North Atlantic squadron and to him the
honor is due. Admiral Sampson, the command
er-n-chief was temporarily absent from the fleet

commander OF the United States land forces in
Cuba but only few miles distant from the
largely unexpected sea fight the direction Of the
battle inevitably fell his immediate inferior
officer Schley-and he directed it most admir-
ably. But he never was in command OF the Unit

UNDERTAKING..

One If the definitions given by Webster for

nasty mess there exists responsibility. Political
" speaking, undertaking has a more or less
definite meaning. The reactonary politician en-
ploys it as a term of contempt for the individual

The power for good which has characterized
the work of men and public journals that have
laid bare the details Of industrial and political
outrage and vilainy can not be oyerestimated.

is SCIENCE WORTH THE PRICE.

With total of almost seventy-five names on
the death roll of aviation, both aviators and the
general public have been aroused to point where
they are demanding greater safety in flying The
number Of fatalities has been on the increase up
to the present time and all the ingenuity of
aviators and manufacturers is being directed to-
ward the task of lessenng the dangers of the
sport.
AS consequence Of the increasing number of
fatal accidents says George Graham White avia-
ton has received serious setback The public
is beginning to show genuine alarm and is asking
if the science is really worth the price Of so
many human lives. A crisis has come in the
progress of aviation The moment has arrived
when it must be rendered safe or become an
exotic sport like looping the loop. 1t has reach
ed the point where it must justify the lives which
have been sacrificed to it in the past by becoming
safe and sane.
The science has made enormous strides since
its inception Already aeroplanes are being used
by the British postal authorities to carry the
mails between Hendon and Windsor in England
The first aerial post installed in the United
States few days ago between Nassau Boulevard
H. l.. and Brooklyn Men are flying about the
world like birds. They have crossed the Alps on
wings. They have raced with eagles But all
this time grim reaper has been looking silently
at these conquests of the air and scarcely
week has passed that it did not snatch away at
least one of the daring men who were trying to
perfect the science of aviation

Grace hospital. and the physicians say
he has a fighting chance. They say
the man mas wonderful vitality and
may pull through.
Bather, who In a At of rage shot
Carton because the latter had married
hts step-daughter against his wishes,
was captured near his home at No. 1877
Dragoon-ave.. late Friday afternoon
by Precinct Detective Thomas. The
mans only explanation for the act Is
that Carton and his bride both had
tuberculosis and had no right TO
marry.
After the shooting, Bather started
for his home. but the flying squadron
and an auto patrol preceded him
there. and he saw a crowd In front OF
his home when he was few blocks
from the house. Then he turned away
and wandered the streets near his
home until he was locked up.
