PLANS A SCHOOL
FOR DELLNQUENTS
County Probation Officer of FL Paso
Endeavors to Obtain Signatures to
Petition Circulated for This

Acting on the provision of the law
which authorizes the establishment of
parental school and detention house
for delinquent children, Mrs. J. T. Eagan,
county probation officer, is circulating
a petition for signatures which viii be
presented to the county commissioners
at their next session. Her plea for the
erection of these houses is that there is
a crying need for them in FL Paso and
that II constructed she VIII be able to
pick up enough children from the streets
to occupy them
The matter of erecting a school room
to be known as the '-ungraded school"
has already been taken up with the
school board While the board has not
taken any definite action, the PROPOSE
ton has met with its approval. and it
is believed that If the proper enthusiasm
IS shown 1t VIII result IN the school be-
ing built.
Mrs. Eagan's family of DELINQUENT
children now numbers %, and she has
no place in which TO house them. For
the most OF these she has secured en-
ployment. There are many. she saws,
that want to attend school, but there il
no school to attend.
Mrs. Eagan gathers some of hef
children from the juvenile court. As
soon as one OF the small defendants is
tried IN that court and sentenced. Mrs
Eagan appeals to the juvenile Judge and
the defendant Is turned over to her.
She then secures work for them and
has the defendant report every Satur-
day. In this way Mrs Eagan has been
responsible for putting a number of
children to work who earn a small sal
airy. These are generally children of
poor parents, and the weekly STIPEND
earned assists in paying for the gro
eeries and fuel for the family.
After a case Is reported to the proba-
tor officer. Investigations are made.
and If 1t Is decided that the child's home
or parents Is not the proper place for
IT, the child Is taken away. At present
there IS no home IN which these children
can be taken care of, and the present
efforts OF the probation officer are he
ing directed IN the WAYS in which a
nome OF this character can be secured

Universe's Framework.

But in the eyes of the astronomer the
Milky Way is the framework of the
universe, and all modern Investigations
of the constitution of the celestial sys-
tenn are based upon it. Our sun, which
is but a pygmy in comparison with the
greater ones surrounding il seems to be
situated not far from the center of the
vast space which the Milky Way en-
circles like a starry girdle. But the
sun is in motion across this compare
lively open space, travelling at the rate
of about u miles per second from the
south toward the north, and dragging
it. It is like an Illuminated mote drift
ing across an immense 5 apartment
which is encircled with countless lamps.
Whether it will go on as it is now go
ing, or viii turn again, is something
that lies beyond the present range Of
our knowledge. For the benefit of

spicuously beautiful double stars now

JAPANESE PRESENT
GROUNDSOF PROTEST
Placed in Inferior Position
to European Nations in
California

Sam Francisco, May 6-The Toxic cor
respondent of the Japanese New World
of this city cabled the paper today that
the protest of the Japanese government
against the alien land law in California
would be based on the contention that by
It's terms the Japanese were placed in O
position inferior to that granted to citi-
zens of European nations in California
and that the spirit of the most favored
nation clause of the Japanese treaty
with the United States was therefore
violated, even though no stipulation of
the treaty specifically covered the point
at issue.
The message adds that there still is a
strong feeling in Japan that the difficulty
can be solved by negotiations between
the governments. Baron Sakatani, mayor
of Toxic. is quoted as having said in an
interview:
THE right of naturalization and new
treaty with the United States specially
relating to land ownership will solve the
whole question.
Toxic advices to the Japanese-Ameri-
can tonight reported that the japanese
government had announced that an ave-
nue. toward satisfactory solution of
the California problem still remained and
argued that the people await the Issue of
negotiations with calmness

DEAD WOMAN
IS IDENTIFIED
Detroit Girl Believed To Be
Victim of Drugs-BOdy
Found in Creek

Detroit, Mich, May 6.-The young wom-
an whose body was found in Fox creek
Crosse Pointe, Monday night, was iden-
titled tonight as Miss Belle Barry, who
for the last week has been employed in
the home of Charles R. Wardell, this city.
County authorities who today conducted
a post mortem examination advanced the
theory that she died from the effects of
a drug taken to prevent an undesirable
condition of health. Whether this drug
was self-administered without knowledge
of its probable fatal result, was not de-
termined.
County Physician E. L. Brandt, who
performed the autopsy, is firm in the be-
lief that the girl was dead when her body
was placed in the shallow water under
the bridge where it was found.

From time immemorial man has
trusted his FEELINGS to tell him
of his physical condition-conelud-
ing always that his health was nor
nal if he felt no distress and suf-
fered no pain.
This theory in the lightNof the
new discoveries of PREVEN-
TIVE SCIENCE is now found to be
wholly erroneous for two reasons.
First because your nerves are di-
vided into two halves. and only one
of the halves is sensor. i. e., has
the power to feel, and second, be-
cause while diseases originate in
the nerves as we have seen, they
originate most generally in the half
of your nerves which does not feel.
To further Illustrate these facts:
The brain is the center of the ply
steal being as we have seen. Dur
ing life it is continually receiving
IMPRESSIONS and c o n t j n u al ly
sending out ELECTRIC POWER.
Now, 1t receives impressions from
the body and outside world through
the sensorA nerves-th half that
feels, and 1t sends out electric power
through the motor nerves-the half
that does not feel Disease is caused
by an obstruction to the electric
current flowing through the nerves
FROM the brain, /. e., the motor
nerves.
We may sever all the sensor
nerves in the body-those running
into the brain--Without impairng
the processes of life, but we can
not sever even one motor nerve
running FROM the brain to vital
organ or part without causing in
slant death.
That is to say, a person might be
blind, deaf and unable to smell.
taste or feel as the result of all of
the sensor nerves being severed,
and still live; but the severing of
even one motor nerve running
FROM the brain to the heart, lungs
or kidneys would result in DEATH
The sensor nerves are essential to
well being, but not to life. Their
work is to gather impressions and
send them into the brain.
The motor nerves on the other
hand are essential to life. Their
work is to transmit from the brain
to every part that normal amount
OF electric power which every part
must have in order to perform it's
functions and keep in repair.
While there is a connection be-
tween these two halves of the ner-
vous system, this connection is of
such a nature that one may be-
come disturbed without disturbing
the other. In other words, one or
more of your sensor nerves may be-
come irritated and you may suffer
intense pain without 1T disturbing
your motor nerves or your health.
On the other hand. one or more
of your motor nerve-f fibres may be-
come pinched and your health
thereby impaired even to the point
of causing your death, without 1t
disturbing your sensor nerves in
any way, or causing you the slight
est pain or distress.
As an Illustration of these points,
neuralgia of the teeth, face, ears,
arms, limbs. etc, while often In
tensely painful, is powerless to dis
TURKS the health so long as the
motor nerves remain undisturbed
Hence, it is not at all uncommon to
meet people who have suffered pain
in some part more or less constant
1y for ten, twenty, thirty or even
forty years, although the health
aside from the pain throughout the
years has been excellent. In these
cases, the defect being in the sem
sor nerves and not extending to the
motor nerves, the health remains
unimpaired.
