HEALTH IS EVERYTHING

DO you realize that good health
is worth striving for? Do you
know that if you have it it is worth
working to keep, and that if you
haven't it there is nothing else on
earth more worth cultivating ? Be-
cause it is the foundation. Good
health means efficiency. Bad
health means inefficiency or cur
tailed efficiency. Men in poor
health have done great things
but they could have done greater
if they had been we'll.
A bulletin issued by the Penn
sylvania state board of health
draws this moving picture of
health:
"What a different world is this
seen through the senses of the
healthy man from that seen
Through senses dulled by disease!
AS he arises from his slumbers
he feels refreshed and delights to
see the new day that has overcome
the night. The song of the birds
calling to their mates is sweet in
his ears. He looks forward to his
daily labors with a heart full of
good cheer. Breakfast is relished

his palate. He enters upon his
daily work with a clear brain and
a steady hand. The engineer,
after looking over his locomotive,
jumps into the cab and seizes the
throttle with strong grip and a
mind intent upon the track. The
mother washes and dresses her lit
tie brood, singing as merrily as the
robin in the tree and looking for
ward to day of joy in their sweet
care and companionship. The
banker finds that the problems
and anxieties which oppressed
him when he laid his weary head
upon the pillow have slipped
away leaving his mental vision
clear and unobstructed. Even the

habit by the brief hours Of sleep

A BILL has been passed in the
Georgia legislature making it a
misdeameanor for woman to

but if the law referred to theatres

to church it would be appreciated
by many more.
