Deare.
Where can we get a manner" ID the
way the chautauQua camper puts It.
One of the first problems that comes
up before a family moving into q tent
is, what shall we call our camp!
Those who move MP and down the
canvas ways at the Richmond Chau-
tauqua will be struck with the variety
of names tackled on the front OF the
tents. Observation-Disclosures that
may mean, "Kamp Kosey," Retire
Inn." "Wyldewell." these are picked
up at random along the avenue.
Around the corner is stumble Inn"
and up another street "Camers Inn"
This last placard was written In Hero
glyphics instead Of letters, showing q
camel walking along.
Cheering up the neighborhood, an
other camp nailed up the caption "Laf
a-lot," an advice that takes immediate
effect upon the passerby. Were Inn"
graced another canvas doorway. From
glimpse into its interior one came to
the conclusion that 1t was couple of
comely maidens who were therein.
Determined not to be overlooked, an
other camp has been christened "a
Tent-Shun-Inn." And then, of course,
there was the inevitable Dew Drop
Inn" No chautauqua would be COM
plete without that.

article today:
1--WE Americans are learning the
game of world politics with astonish-
ing rapidity. In our splendid isola-
tion,' we had no need of complicated
school Of diplomacy to check and to
check. However, our expansions to-
ward the far east brought US into RI
valry with Japan. According to the
code OF world politics, as played ut
present, Japan is undoubtedly a pos
sible enemy of ours. How real the dan
ger is, the European war illustrates
very clearly.
With the entrance of Japan into the
war, the interests Of the United States
are placed in Jeopardy. A month ago
1t would have been considered scream
Ing jingoism to prophesy war with ia
pan. Yet I fear that the seizure of
Kiao-Chu is the first step in a British
Japanese plot to obtain the control Of
the Far East.
England Gives Consent.
1T is evident that Japan has decid-
ed to take this step at the instigation
or at least, with the consent of Eng
land.
Great Britain has placed herself un.
der obligations which may be very I'M

ments With Dogs.

The Conservation Of the Child
was the subject dealt with by Dr.
CAROLYN Geisel In her health class at
the chautauQua this morning There
Is nothing more important to the
United States than this child cues
ton We must raise Americans for
America"
Human life depends upon nature
and nutrition. In determining q boys
destiny. environment is almost equal
to heredity but heredity can't always
be overcome. Therefore. We ought TO
begin the conservation of q child be-
fore 1t 10 born" she said.
The influence of a good heredity,
DR.. Geisel illustrated by the Edwards
family. OF 1900 descendants of iona
than Edwards. not one has been .
criminal. imbecile or pauper But OF
1900 members of the notorious Jukes
family. there have been 392 immoral
women. 426 paupers, l16 murderer:
not q decent person In the entire
family.
Death Of Children.
I'VE need to educate mothers IL
we are to conserve the child. We
could carpet Indiana with graves of
babies who died in this country last
year. One-haN of them died before
they were two years of age why do
20 many babies die? Because mothers
are ignorant. We spent $50 1000, 900 in
taxes each year to educate farmers to
raise pigs. Why don't We spend as
much money to educate mothers to
raise babies? We have put science
behind the farmer. Why don't we put
science behind the mother? We are
bury1ng babies every day because
mothers don't know how to care for
them. You give women education for
raising men and they will furnish you
good men, just as the educated farmer
furnishes you good hogs.
"Of all bottle fed babies, fifty-seven
per cent die In United States. OF
breast fed babies, only seven per cent
die. Bottle-fed babies become extinct
or sterile in the fourth generation"
Opposes Tobacco.
At this point, DR.. Geisel opened ND
a bombardment on the use of tobacco,
especially the use Of cigarettes. She
described how. under the direction of
Prof. Pawlow OF St. PetersburH, she
helped conduct an experiment on four
dogs, both pairs Of which received the
same food except that one pair was
given q small amount Of tobacco each
day. "The dogs that received the
nicotine were much more stupid. One
Of them died Of a common disease at
the end of the year and both of them
were stunted In growth. The other
two grew to be fine. large dogs and
are now used in q dog team with Q
