HEATING PLANT AT
COUNTY JAIL SMALL

Because of the small size of the
boilers connected with the Jail heat
ing plant. the county commissioners
have found that there will be difficult
ty in heating the insane ward Of the
structure which will be erected this
fall. Larger boilers are needed. the
commissioners were informed. if the
manufacturing concern is to guaran-
tee them. The board has not deter
mined on what course to pursue, but
it is believed new ones will be in
stalled.

HIGH COST OF LIVING.
Editor Palladium !:

EuItOE FdllduluIu.
For illustration, take the oasis with
its exhaustless springs in the midst
of the vast desert. A cavalcade of
people with their beasts of burden are
making Decline for those springs.
Midway there is gathered a band of
robbers, armed. ready to attack these
travellers, but an American, practical
business man dissuades them from
this. There's better way" he says;
rather hasten to take possession of
that oasis and assert your ownership
thereof on priority claim; then you
can charge everybody what you please
for the water, and in this way you
get a goodly part of their wealth."
In the matter of the necessaries of
life we have similar conditions. We
have entrusted to a class of men the
function of supplying our needs, whose
interests seem rather to lie in keeping
us down to the short allowance mark.
Local conditions are the result of con-
ditions worldwide. We are doubtless
familiar with the incident of the
householder who bought barrel of APP
pies for 81, who on opening the bar
rel found the following note written by
the farmer raising them: "Mr. Con-
sumner, got IS cents for this barrel of
apples. How much did you pay?" Be
tween the producer and the consumer
there are operatives that smack
of the porch-climbers and the highway
robber. Nature is not to blame for
these conditions. for she is bounteous
with her treasures to mankind. HUI
man greed is clearly at fault, through
the system of rent, interest and profit,
resulting from the private ownership
of the means of production, distribu-
ton and exchange.
Large quantities of food are annually
destroyed by capitalistic adventurers
in order to create artificial scarcity
and SO enhance prices. Coal mines
shut down to regulate the output"
Lots of fruit rots on the grounds or is
dumped into the river rather than let
the people enjoy it at a fair price.
The farmer. then. is not blamable
for high prices, as too often claimed,
- between him and the consumer
there are the useless go-betweens.

Bridreport Mothers' club.

/
The Bridgeport Mothers Club held
it's regular monthly meeting at the
Methodist church Tuesday. The pres
identi called the meeting to order
promptly at 2:3O p. m. After the
usual opening exercises. Dr.. John
Folk addressed those present on
The care OF Children" Beginning
with the birth OF the child, he told
what to do until the doctor arrives.
He emphasized the importance of
forming regular habits from the
Irirst, and spoke Of the danger to
the infants eyes from two much light
for the first three or four days. He
warned against the use OF drugs, ex-
cept as prescribed by a physician;
and especially against the use Of
"soothing syrups.' He mentioned
causes of collie in children, and
pointed out the remedy. He touched
upon the bath, clothing and daily
airing. Adenoids and enlarged tom
sis are frequently caused by the
habit of sucking the thumb, and the
use Of pacifers." Speaking Of the
rapid development of the brain dur
ing the first few years of life, he
showed the danger to the nervous
system from frights of all kinds, also
from all forms of excitement. He gave
some valuable instruction in the man al
agement of contagious diseases, and
closed with a bit of advice to mothers
in regard to the older boys. All ap-
prec!ated the doctors address, and
several expressed regret that they
had not known these things before
After the address a social hour was
enjoyed, with Mrs. Sandusl<y and Mrs
Withers as hostesses. Sixteen new
members were secured. The meeting
adjourned to meet December 26.
