A Sustaining Diet.

These are the enervating days
when, as somebody has said, men
drop by the sunstroke as. if the Day
of Fire had dawned. They are fraught
with danger to people whose systems
are poorly sustained; and this leads
us to say, in the interest of the less
robust of our readers, that the full eff
feet of Hoods Sarsaparilla is such as
to suggest the propriety of calling
this medicine something besides
blood purifier and tonic-say, a sus-
tanning diet. 1t makes it much
easier to bear the heat, assures rer
freshlns sleep, and will without any
doubt avert much sickness at this
time of year.

Who VIII Be ReNominated by Gov
ernor Haines, as state Superintendent
of Schools.
During Mr. Smiths term of service, the
Maine Teachers Association has enjoyed
a remarkable growth and this is no doubt
due in part 10 the consolidation with the
association of other educational socie-
ties having more or less common inter-
ests. Mr.. Smith was active in making
this consolidation. and the results have
more than justified the wisdom of his
advice in the matter.
Credit can be given to Mr.. Smith for
the improved condition of the Maine
High school system The State Normal
schools have shown healthy growth
and have been better adapted to meet
the needs of the State in the training of
teachers.
Supt. Smith. i'll 1909. brought to the at
tention of the Legislature the needs of
the state, in the matter of vocational
education He was authorized to make
an investigation of conditions and with
the aid of selected committee report
was filed with the Legislature and the
important act for the announcement of
industrial education was subsequently
passed. In this work Maine has been
pioneer and the report of the Maine
committee has been sought as a guide by
educational authorities of other states.
Upon Mr.. Smiths recommendation,
portion of the STATE school fund was set
aside TO assist the poorer towns in bear
ing the burden of educational expenses.
The wisdom of such course has been
proven by the Increase in the amount or
the fund made by the last two Legisa-
lures. Acting on his recommendations,
the Legislatures have passed many inn
portant educational laws, including the
act requiring the examination of the
sight and hearing of public school pupils
and allowing the employment of school
physicians, the State approval of plans
for school buildings and the provision
for furnishing plans by the state depart
ment and the better fire protection OF
school buildings.
The Legislature of 1915, provided ior a
system of State pensions for teachers of
long service and for the State certitica--
ton of all teachers in the public schools.
All, who are familiar with the work of
the last Legislature realize that Mr..
Smiths advice on these important mat
tiers of legislation was much sought.
Payson Smith was born in Portland
Feb. II, 1873. He was educated in the
public schools of Portland, at Westbrook
Seminary and at Tufts college He holds
the honorary degrees of A. NJ, from
Tufts college. Lit. from Bates and Bow
doin. and LII. b.. from the University of
Maine. During his term as State SUI
perintendent. Mr.. Smith has been the
president OF the American Institute of
Instruction. has served an officer and
has been active in the work of the New
England Association of School superIn-
tendents, represents Maine on the Ma
lional Council of education. and has been
active in the work of the National Edu-
cational Association serving as chair
man of the committee on uniform rec
ords and statistics of that association.

nIssoUars INSURANCE MISTAKE.

The state of Missouri has just in-
!shed a beautiful JOB OF making itself
ridiculous with an effort to fix the
price OF Insurance. It's rates were OBJ
5ected to by the insurance companies
which withdrew from the state and re-
fused to do business in Missouri ThA
state then sought TO punish companies
fo- Withdrawing but after futile efforts
the attorney general conveniently finds
the law unconstitutional
Missouri could have found a sane
and businesslike method Of reaching
the same evil n the Wisconsin lazy
which sers up state insurance COM
pany Of strictly mutual character but
based upon rates which are scientific
ally sound Regulation by state COM
petition is regulation that regulates.
lnsuranca1fundaalentaily Is cooper
alive protection. It is logical function
for the state to perform Il is just what
society has done when Il Instituted
organized government whereby indi-
v!duais co-operated for their protection
from attack and spoilation. Protection
OF defendants in case Of death, Of
property owners from sudden loss BY
FIRE and storm. even OF 6epositors from
loss IN bank failures Is all pure CO.
opersttv protection; the function OF
the state TO perform.
The difference in the Missouri and
the Wisconsin plans is that Missouri
undertook 70 lead a horse 10 water and
70 make MIN drink. while Wisconsin
proposes TO let the insurance horse ge,

dirk z. tha rates es,a hlished ny state

has undertaken accident and old age

operating expense OF the department
from genera. taxation on the theory
thai 10 induce people 10 become prov!-
dent and provide their own supper,

than 20 build poor houses and orphan

economic principle OF society caring for
its weak and dependent members grows
as our civilization advances and those
state experiments IN insurance are
pointing the way for iowa to ;save!

bad road unfit for travel. Wisconsin
gives promise Of better route.
