Residents OF the flooded district
in the lower Mississippi Valley hav'
been warned by the Government to
guard against diseases following the
high water. In Memphis. the Board
Il Health has taken steps to prevent
residents of the flooded portion of tie
city from returning to their homes
until proner steps can be- taken 70
thoroughly disinfect the buildings
and the Government has issued a
warning notice, in which residents
of the flooded districts. arc advised
to boil drinking water.
Cairo has been extremely forta-
nate. The recent food did not spoil
the drinking water, nor has II rcnd
cred homes 50 dangerous to health
that disinfecting will be necessary.
However, the city is experiencing
considerable difficulty with sipe
water and some immediate steps
should be made to guard against
disease from this source.
While the present rise in the
rivers may not eRdanger Cairo. I;

National Children's Bureau.

Ono OF the most notable measures
that have become laws at this SEES
sion OF congress is that creating a
bureau TO gather statistics concern
Ing child life. On Id labor is but
one Of the subjects concerning
which this bureau win seek informa-
ton Eduesticn, treatment Of de-
fectlves. childrcn's diseases anil
methods of safeguarding health,
protection OF morals aud other rclat-
cd subjects Will also be covered. In
all OF these and other like fields its
work should prove of great help TO
students. charitable workers an
lawmakers.
Take the one subject Of child la
Dor. At present no adequate sta
tlstics are in existence concerning
child labor in all the states. The
census is supposed to cover tho field
in manner, but the results have
not been entirely trustworthy More
over, in the intervening ten years
between one census and the next
even this source of information i
shut off, A few states gather some
sort Of statistics on the subject, and
different organizations, such as The
national child labor committee and a
few charitable organizations, have
done what they could, but their
work could not be expected to extend
TO more than a small part OF TIC
vast field.
Under the childrcn's bureau all
this should be changed for the bet
ter. There will now he an authort-
tative central agency to which all
may apply in looking for facts con-
corning child life, This viii be of

Technicalities.

According to General Blxby. chleI
engineer Of the Mississippi River
Commission, no part Of the $1,000
900 recently voted by Congress, can
be used in strengthening or raising
the levecs surrounding Cairo and
Drainage District.
General Bixby explained to mem
hers of the. local committee, now In
Washington, that the law as inter-
preted by the Board, gives the Wal
Department authority to strengthen
and raise levees only when necessary
TO navigation. The War Department
VIII have the use of the million and
M-half dollar appropriation for the
work OF repairing leyees in the
flooded districts cud Cairo has been
promised $50, 200 OF the fund.
In explaining the technical phase

81 would be a di'acalt matter ia

A correspondent, a churchman,
somewhat moved by paragraph re-
gardng sleeping In church. wrote that
he has no particular objection to the
congregation going to sleep, when it
has an excuse for doing SO. But"
he writes, Il want to ask you what
you think of this: I attend a church
where the assistant sleeps during the
sermon. and a few Sundays ago no
bad the nerve to tell the rector II
was the finest sermon he had ever
heard him (the rector) preach, when
he had been sleeping through IT."
This is certainly very shocking. We
submit, however, that II the assistant
slept calmly through the sermon he
could do no less than compliment 1t.
