Democratic tariff tinkers propose

own liking and thinking. 1T is an
nounced that hearings are to be had'
but what boots it? At the first ses-
sic.a of the present Congress what
bearings were had, and they were
not many, amounted to nothing as
the Democratic House obi gated
itself to caucus and acted at the
dictation of that caucus. Unfortu-
nately, for the country that caucus
was controlled by free trade Demo

rencher Is Health T1dnc.gtor.

The country school teacher should
be a pubic health educator, accord
ing to Dr.. Charles Il. North, of New
York City, author of an article on
Sanitation n Rural Communities, .
Just Issued By the United States Blu
reau OF Education. AS the natural
intellectual leader of his community,
the rural teacher, he maintains, can
do for public health in the couatry
what the medical inspector and
school nurse are doing in the city
point the way to clean living.
: Mere teaching of physiology is
not what is needed. Physiology may
satisfy the curiosity of children as
to their internal organs, but it does
not protect them in any way against
tuberculosis from contaminated
milk or typhoid from impure water
The rising generation, whether in
the country or in the city, has a
right to be instructed in the first
principles Of sanitary science.
Far from being too difficult to
teach in the elementary school, the
subject Of pubic health can be made
both understandable and interesting
Such a simple operation as washing
the hands, for instance, becomes at
tractive when studied with refer
ence to bacteria. Personal clean
I,ness, purity of food AID drinks
the nature Of disease, and the meth
Cd of transference, are all things
which can be expressed in the sim
plest terms and made clear to the
understanding of children asserts
DR. North. .sIiIk. Its value. as a
food the fact that it is highly ap-
p-eciated by bacteria. and that it -
therefore necessary to protect it
against them-these are not too diff
fcult for the child to understand.
DIR. North emphasizes the need OF
special training in this subject for
school teachers. He believes that
normal schools and teachers col
Ieges' should have regular courses
in public health, so that the country
school teacher may be armed with
the essential facts OF sanitary
science.
Remarkable results may be ex-
pected to follow adequate public
health work by rural school teachers.
1t is estimated that # effective san
itation were enforced the present
average of forty-five years for hu-
man life would be prolonged to
sixty. 'In rural communities annu-
ally 100000 persons die and about
:. geo. goo others are seriously i'll
from infectious diseases. If only
one-half of these deaths and cases
OF sickness can be eliminated. it
means that an immense field of use
full work lies at the hand of the
country school teacher who will be-
come a public health educator and
