CHILDREN AND HEALTH.

The health of the child is the most
important factor in the education of
the young is the conclusion reached
by the National Education association
in session at ST. Paul. To the end
that this factor may receive the con-
sideration and attention due il recon
mendatiOn for a supervisor of health
for public schools was approved.
The subject was discussed in three
departments of the convention, in the
department Of child hygiene. in the
department OF school patrons and in
the department OF secondary educa-
ton. and in all the sentiment was
unanimously in favor OF extension of
hygienic supervision. The essentials
it was deemed are that the child
should be properly clothed. physically
clean. that eyes and ears are properly
cared for. that teeth are sound and
kept clean. and that the child shall
be shielded as far as possible from
contagion.
Teachers and physicians united in
these conclusions and urged that
health supervision OF the public
schools be carried into the homes OF
the children in order that sources Of
disease and erroneous habits of life
may be eliminated and corrected
There recommendations follow the
knowledge that the efficiency OF the
school children Is seriously crippled
By bad habits and preventable diseases
and imperfections. To those who have
given this subject no thought or study
il may be incOmprehensible that de-
cayed teeth. adenoids. insufficient
clothing or uncleanliness should in
terfere with the program OF a child's
studies. but il Is no longer a question
In the minds OF the well informed
Statistics show that children laboring
under these disadvantages are seri-
ously handicapped
The child with poor teeth cannot
properly masticate the food he eats.
adenoids interfere with full and free
breathing, uncleanliness has an ad-
verse effect on the general health. in
sufficient clothing levies a severe tax
on the vitality and so on. all Of which
has It's influence on the mental car
pacity. energy and application OF the
child.

THE YOUNG Old NAN.

Some fun and considerable malice is
poked at John D. Rockefeller because
he has the good fortune or in fortune.
or at least the distinction Of reputedly
being the richest man in the world.
bot laying all fun and malice aside,
Mr.. Rockefeller represents something
besides money and something better
than money.
on his seventy-fifth birthday Mr.
Rockefeller played two rounds OF
golf. and what is more. won his game.
whereat he was pardonably elated.
Now two rounds OF golf means a walk
or approximately six thousand yards.
which reduced 10 more convenient
measure is equivalent TO about three
miles and a half. not counting the side
trips occasioned by sliced or other
wise misdireeted balls. In addition to
the walk was the physical exercise OF
making the strokes. all OF which COM
bined is calculated TO tax the strength
and endurance Of the player.
Despite his seventy-five years, Mr..
Rockefeller felt fresh and strong after
finishing his game and taking his
bath. His system retains the power
Of reaction, and instead Of being
wearied and exhausted by the effort
he was refreshed. The conclusion is
that a life of activity has left Mr..
Rockefeller in good physical cOndi-
ton not in spite Of that activity, but
because OF IL and that this condition
Is being maintained by continuing his
activity into the years which too many
men surrender 20 ease.
Mr.. Rockefeller has not acknOwl-
edged that he is an old man. He does
not acknowledge IT because ne does
not know it. He does not feel like an
old man, and a man is as old only as
ne feels. The years in their flight may
have left their burrows on the exter-
Tor OF his body, but his organisms are
strong with vitality. lie has not
weakened his heart or mind with ex-
cesses nor debilitated his body with
indulgences. There is nothing the
matter with Mr. Rockefeller. He is
growing old gracefully and uncon-
sciously.
In this particular Mr.. Rockefeller
represents what man should be at
seventy-five, as J. NJ. Studebaker rep
resents what man should be at
eighty. full Of interest in life which
has animated them all through their
careers and still factor in it.

WOULD TAKE A LONG TIME.

One OF the most striking examples
OF political Misrepresentation is found
in the statement OF that renowned
pulpit orator. Senator Penrose.
when he declared that the democrat
&c tariff law had lost TO the United
States $1,000. goo. 600 in foreign trade
since the Mexican war began. The
Mexican war has been in progress
about eighteen months. two months OF

tration. Now the fact is that the ex-
port business OF this country has av-
eraged during the past few years. in
Guiding last year. about 81. 900. 600. .

twenty five years TO lose the trade

STREAMING TT PRETTY FINE

The main objection against Jones Of
Chicago for the federal reserve board
seems 10 have been that ne went into
a zinc trust and got fortune.
Naughty, naughty.
True. there oughtn't to be zinc
trusts-the folks should own their
own minerals.
But if we let a few take control Of
these treasures of nature and tax the
rest Of US what they wish, can you
think of a single reason why Jones
of Chicago shouldn't own zinc stock
as we'll as anybody else?
Bet there isn't a senator at Wash
ington who'd run away from doing
as Jones did; and some would run
mighty fast to get the chance.
Let's not get silly, You can't find
many men OF practical experience and
ability, men fit for big administrative
Jobs. who haven't at some time or
place taken a bite Of privilege-they
don't grow.
1t ought TO be enough if the $780,
000-a-year man who's willing to work
for Uncle Sam for 80 per cent dis
count is honest, dependable and on to
the fact that privilege must go.
There's no reason at all why the
greediest plute, il intelligent should
not find more fun serving the public
than he ever found in serving him
self. They're just human, these rich
fellers like the rest OF US; and some.
even yet, can be saved. Don't forget
