DIR. DIXON TALKS ON
COLD AND TEMPER
Health Commissioner Gives Some
Excellent Ideas About TAX
ing Care Of Body

State Commissioner of Health Sam
uel G. Dixon has attracted much at
tention by q little series of talks on
health matters which he has been CIV
ing weekly and his latest under the
interesting title of "Colds and Iii Tenn
per" has caused much comment. The
doctors views are original as usual.
In his talk on this subject he says:
Half the i'll temper in the world
is the result of poor ventilation.
Think of your own case. Let the
office or the house or the schoolroom
become close and "stuffy" and imme-
diately there follows a feeling of de-
preston. The lungs being robbed of
fresh air, the blood is deprived of
oxygen, the purifying agency, the
nerve centers are depressed in their
turn and all of u sudden we find our
selves in an irritable, peevish humor
without any apparent explanation for
1t. Ask any teacher which is the
most trying time of the day and she
will tell You the last hour. Which
hours are hardest at the office-the
last ones, Of course. Not necessarily
because it means the elimination OF
the days efforts. but because the win
dows have been kept down and the
steam on until the air becomes hot
dry and parched, and then follows in
due turn this depression and with ii
irritability. People whose occupations
keep them out of doors are, as class
more even-tempered and genial than
shut-ins.
''In industries of all sorts there is
striving for scientific efficiency. II
would be we'll for employers, and cor
| respondingly for the employees, II
among other considerations they
would make sure Of obtaining q pro-
per system of ventilation wherever any
considerable number of people are al
work. Without a supply of fresh all
1t is impossible to bring about the
maximum physical efficiency of the
individual worker So much for the
work shops.
THE conditions in our homes are
equally worth watching. Many a
housewife who feels nervously ex-
hausted would find that a few min
utes' exercise in resh air would pre-
vent q nervous headache. A temper
ature OF 65 degrees Fahrenheit where
the air is fresh is far healthier and
more acceptable to the normal young
or middle-aged individual than a tenn
perature of 20 or more degrees in a
vitiated atmosphere. AS a preventive
fresh air is of the greatest value
Overheated, ill-ventilated rooms, Of
fees, cars, etc, are predisposine
agencies to both colds and pneu-
monia."

uses this old. famous recipe, becaI,so
no one can possibly tell that you doris

sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair taking one
small strand at. time; by mornins
the gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two, your hair

WORK KEYNOTE OF
SUCCESS" "--BECHT'
Secretary Of State Board Of Educa-
ton Delivers Address at Cum
berland Directors Meeting
Special to The TELEGRAPH

Mechanicsburg, Pa, Feb. 13.-"The
keynote of success in life is work."
declared DIR. j. George Becht, secre-
tary of the State Board of Education,
in an address last evening at the
twenty-secopd annual meeting of the
Cumberland County School Directors
Association in the high school audi
tortum. Our whole direction in the
lines of education is to lend helping
hand to the one and one-half million
school children who are the national
asset" he further said, and every
education that is worth while is to in
terpret life-to enable us to read the
sighboards of life. Education deter
mines behavior. The uneducated can
work only in grooves. knowledge only
becomes powerful when translated
into life. false philosophy is to edu-
cate the boy so he can avoid the hard
work his father had to endure. Real
education teaches to work harder.
Whether people are successful it is at
the price Of hard work. The joys
and pleasures of life that are worth
while come out of sacrifice. Success
must be purchased at the price of
sacrifice. All our education is in this
larger aspect. There are unlimited
opportunities in the world to-day. In
whatever work in which we engage,
we must fdealize it for the pure 10y
of the work" DIR. Becht was heartily
applauded by the large audience,
which occupied every inch Of available
space.
At the afternoon session he spoke
on Lines of Advance" Other speak

Today's latest announcement has the

John A. Gilmore to show more base
ball ability and statesmanship. They
declare he has been frittering away his

considered a tactical weakness.

baseball. Fritz Maisel, the dapper little
third basenan of the New York
Yankees has turned down an offer
from the Baltimore Federals to stick
with Frank Chance, who has given him
an opportunity TO break into the big
league.

the national commission, have assured
their managers that they are willing
TO sign at the earliest opportunity and
are not even listening to the honeyed
promises of the outlaws.
Instead of going TO New York for
conferences with available capitalists,
President Gilmore visited Buffalo and
Toronto, minor league towns that have
never even supported second rate teams
TO any great extent. He has now re
turned to Chicago and expects to 50

the internal weakness of the Federal
League may have appeared. Charles

his associates. President Gilmore and
Secretary Rickart, who might be eN-
pected to give out Information, have
dropped off the map.

says one baseball man. the Federals
have done nothing wbrth while. They
are now using his signature to pry
money from a==Farious angels. kidding
them into the belief that there are mil

season. Thy have guaranteed Tinker's
fancy salary. but have not done the
same for any other player. The others
must take chances"
That this is true is shown by Lefty
Highs case. Stovall offered him s. 100
more money than he is now getting
from Detroit. Stovall declined to put
