LETTER TO EDITOR
Editor Day Book:

Editor Day Book:
The writer is a regular reader of
The Day Book, and has been one of
its enthusiastic boosters, practically
from the day it made it's first appear
ance on the news stands immediate
ly after the beginning of the recent
newspaper strike. Previous to that
; time, l very seldom missed my copy
of the ''Hearse" papers; but since
then l have yet to throw away my
first penny on those stick 'em in the
back" sheets.
But the reason for this letter:
Your question, What is your judg--
ment upon the act of that Armenian
father?" strikes me as being not so
much problem for moralists, as it
is problem for a little clear think
ing. The son no doubt has COM
mitted crime against society, and
should be lawfully punished, accord
ingly to the laws laid down by that
society. But that Armenian father,
in giving his son up to the law,
should at the same time have ten
dered himself, as real accessory to
the fact" Had the father instilled
into his son in his childhood days a
feeling of brothAEy love instead of
the attributes Of the ape and the |
tiger, blood never would have been
spilled by him.
The hatred" of the Mohammedan |
Turk was the cause; and the "cause" |
was a centuries-old inheritance. In
heritance from whom; from fore
fathers, handed down directly by the
father himself. The father in allow
ing that feeling of hate for the Turk
has not only committed a crime
against society, but has sinned
against against his own flesh and
blood, and could have at least atoned
to the latter by shielding him from
that worry society that made his sons

perstition and Hate. Yours for light,

SOME THEORIES ON SLEEP
One Is That Slumber That Robs One
of Years of Life Is Simply
Bad Habit.

When lower forms of animal life
are experimental with in the labo-
ratory the tendencyis to diminished
activity or complete rest (sleep) in
the dark and to increased activity in
the light. This chemical effect upon
protoplasm in general becomes
rhythmic with the alternating day
and night, and in the hundred mil
lion years that led to the evolution
of man the original terrestrial pro-
toplasmic rhythm became an estab-
lished function Of animal life. With
the development of a nervous system
this regular periodicity of action and
Inaction was doubtless taken over to
a considerable extent by the neurons,
as has occurred with other functions
of protoplasm. If this be true, may
we not look upon sleep, that robs US

A CENTURY AGO.

One hundred years ago Paris made
its last gallant defense against the
allies. The engagement Unknown to
history as the Battle of the Barriers,
and was fought for the most part in
the outskirts of the city. The little
army entrusted with the defense of
the city was heroically aided by the
National Guard, the students of the
military schools and the citizens in
general. A desperate resistance was
made, but the result of the battle was
a foregone conclusion. The French
were in command of Marshals Nor
tier and Marmont, while Prince
Schwartzenberg, the Prince Of Wur-
temberg and Marshal Butcher direct
ed the movements of the allied
armies. Only after the enemy had
forced themselves almost into The
heart of the city did Marshal Mar
mont agree to capitulate.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1914-10-21

Of % years of activity in our short
lives of three score and ten, as bad
habit, as an incident or rather acct
dent of our existence on this partic-
ular planet? One wonders, for in
stance as to the relations of sleep and
activity on a planet like Jupiter,
with ten-hour day, five hours of
light and five hours Of night, with
six years of polar night, and seasons
each three years long. What about
sleep on Saturn, with its luminous
rings and eight moons, and also five
hours of day and five hours of night?
How about sleep on planets lit by du-
pick or triplex suns, or in the solar
system of Theta Orionis with seven
suns ?-Frederick Peterson, in At

EAT SLOWLY AND BE WELL
~5oiting' Of Food 10 One Of the Chief
Causes Of Disturbance of Digest
I've Organs.

Hurried and rapid eating, which
today is too common among all
classes of society, prevents anything
like efficient mastication, and as a
result the food has very poor start
m the digestive process before reach
ing the stomach. It is always wiser
to take less food if need be and then
masticate that thoroughly rather
than hurry rapidly through a big
meal. There is no doubt that 'bolt-
ing the food is one of the most
prolific causes of indigestion, dyspep-
STA, headache and many other symp-
toms and disturbances that might be
mentioned.
While prevention is the best cure,
there is every reason to believe that
the majority of people who suffer
from digestive disorders would de-
rive great benefit by taking plenty
of time to 'fetcherize" their food,
that is, chew it thoroughly before
swallowing. Thorough mastication
is also essential for the preservation
of the teeth, for neglect to use these
organs encourages decay and brings
about their early loss.-Dr. A. B.
Olsen IN Good Health
