IGNORANCE OF THE LAW

Layman on more than one occasion
have reflected that the rule OF Justice
that ignorance of the law excuses no
man was harsh one. But man-made
law is no more severe in this respect
than natural law. In natural law, this
rule of justice is not even tempered
with mercy, it is memorable.
In the matter of health it is empha-
sized every day. Physicians and scien-
fists have known for many years that
epidemics and scourges were no mere
accidents. Always there is a cause.
And likewise in individuals. Sickness
doesn't just happen. Always there has
been some violation of some law of
health and the best cure is a speedy
harmony with the law, if it is known
or can be ascertained. In consequence
the free medical advice that is given in
board of health bulletins etc. Here is
bunch of health observations from
the latest bulletin of the Kansas state
board of health that everyone should
read and heed.
Many OF us dig our graves with our
teeth.
Water is the best kidney medicine"
the Lord or anyone else ever made.
Don't hibernate, ventilate. Pc lty of

Health is natures reward for getting
in harmony with her laws. 1t pays to
be law abiding.
Sins against onr physical bodies
bring their own reward. Moreover,
nature takes no account of the fact that
we have not been aware of the physical
laws which we have broken.-Ex.

SUBNORMAL CHILDREN
The Study Of the Backward
Child is to be Taken Up

A summer school for teachers Of
defective children has been announced
to be held Lapeer, begigning July 6.
A school of this kind has never before
been attempted in the state. The board
of supervisors of the new school is
composed of DR.. H. A. Haynes of the
Lapeer Home, Dr. c. S. Berry OF the
Department of Education, U. of M,
State Superintendent F. L. Keller,
Frank Cody, Assistant Superintendent
of the Detroit schools and the head OF
the work among the defective children
of that city, and C. c. Peck of Port
Huron, member OF the Board of the
Lapeer Home. According to the esti-
mate of Miss Adele McKinnie, who has
been conducting a survey, there are
not less than 5000 feeble minded per-
sons in the state. Some of these are
enrolled in the public schools. Aside
from this class are the thousands OF
higher mentality but who are not fitted
to work side by side with normal
children. The disa 1vantage TO the
brighter child resulting from classified
ton with those of the lower mentality
must be considered also.
The school of instruction is to be
open to experienced teachers only and
applicants will be required to have a
certificate of recommendation from
their local superintendent of schools.
The Lapeer Home will form the labora-
tory for the work and instruction will
be given in the various forms of studies
taught as well as in the psychology OF
defective children, tests of mental
efficiency and other subjects needed
for a thorough understanding OF the
work. The teachers trained in the
school will be employed in the schools
for detectives in various cities.
