PERSONAL ATTACK
Is A COMPLIMENT

What is the reason for the hunt for
personal peccadilloes against Wilson
Why the eagerness to find para
graphs in his writings that can be
wrenched out of their context in page
and chapter and make him say fiat
statements without qualification?
Why the avidity to seek contrasts
in what he says now and what he said
ten years ago? Is it crime for q
man to learn?
Putting the question another way:
Why is it that all this commotion is
entirely over personalities while tbs
politics for which Wilson stands are
not discussed?
The source of the attack is at once
the answer and the compliment.
That attitude of mind which sees
nothing in the present industrial con-
clifton to be remedied, which is sat-
isfied with things as they are and de-
sires to have the industries OF the
country carried on along the same
lines as in the last twenty years, can
have no policy that it dare make pub
lie In democracy
II it did. It would have before now
accepted wilson's challenge to "sug-
gest something"

that is a government that cannot be

Criminal Minds
Relieved by Surgery.

II il no new theory that criminal
propsnsities may often be due to
physical defects.
Surgical cases lately reported from
Philadelphia and Toledo. o., lift the
idea above the plane Of mere theory
even to the lay mind
Tho connection between the mind
and the body Is still a mystery, but
progressive science shows the con-
nection to be much closer than was
even imagined possible a century ago.

boy whose skull had been injured BY .
fan ct an early age. The hoy had
apparently recofered completely from

He was heading toward a career in

Conquering the
Typhoid Fevers.

During the year 1911 there were
thirty nine cases of typhoid fever in
the United States army in continental
America. In many instances these
men were camped in places which
could not be made absolutely sani-
Mexican border there was but one
soldier out lof every two thousand was
the victim of this deadly disease
Previous years, especially, before the
army physicians learned that typhoid
could be vaceinated against, there
were hundreds Of cases of typhoid and
many deaths.
Last spring when nearly thirteen
thousand soldiers encamped on the
Mexican border there was btu one
case Of typhoid during the encamp-
ment. san Antonio. near which the
soldiers were placed, a city Of nearly
a hundred thousand inhabitants, had
forty-nine reported cases Of typhoid
with nineteen deaths.
Major Russell. of the army medical
corps, the. typhoid serum expert. has
spent many years perfecting the
serum, and he says that compulsory
vaccination against typhoid, such as
is required against smallpox, would
in all probability reduce the typhoid
cases in the United States rs per cent
Typhoid fever is one OF the most
dangerous diseases we have today,
and it is very gratifying to know that
it may successfully be yaccinated
against. It is not theory and should
not be looked upon as such It has
been proven successful In the United
States army and what works in the
army will be a success in the cities.
OF course there viii be those who
viii say sanitary conditions will re-
move the cause and that there is no
use of vaccination. Nineteen deaths
in San Antonio does not sound like il
is useless when the soldiers on the
outskirts of the city were not affected
The soldiers had been vaccinated.
The army test is enough to con-
vince anyone open to conviction that
compulsory vaccination is wise.

the chief.
But half right is rather indef-
mite. It appears to common cornpre-

entirely right or entirely wrong; but
possibly the chief means that she is
half right in handing 1t to the nnasher

It is not properly a matter for

as affront. Any woman is faithless

Women at Head
OF City Schools.

In no line Of work have women
made as much progress during recent
years as they have in school work.
Whether the business world has Of
fered better opportunities to men 10
leave the school teaching world, or
whether It is woman's natural fitness
for the work. we win not presume to
say. but It Is a fact that in many
places women are gradually but sure
" taking the places formerly occu-
pied by men in the schools Of the
cities OF the country.
Only a few years ago the impress
sion Prevailed that for the primary
grades an elderly woman was all right
40 a teacher. but the first grades fin
ished the child should be instructed
by a man. That, however. was before
school teaching became d profession
and before schools and colleges began
preparing young women to enter this
field OF usefulness.
Chicago boasts Of her schools since
Mrs. Young became superintendent
and now Cleveland has taken a SINH
lar step by appointing Miss Keller
superintendent for that city. Other
smaller cities are doing likewise. and
wherever it has been tried it has
proven satisfactory in every respect.
