Trade Schools

The trade schools are in success
full operation and arrangements are
being made to take care of the in.
creased number of arrivals as the
war continues. At present there is
the American farm machinery, trac-
tors and so forth used in France and
Ia number of them are being trained
for this work.
In the designing room number
of men who have lost their right
arms are training themselves with
the aid of various American draw
ing devices to use their left hand.
After these men have been sufficient
~ trained the government will find
positions where such as have MASTER
ed new calling may earn decent
living. All those who have fought
for the country will be we'll cared
for, according. to Monsieur Jules
Brisac, in charge of this work; none
will become charge. They can
choose whatever work they wish.
Private societies that are interested
in aiding the MANNED will be sub
sidized but the government will exer-
clse cOntr0l generally.
Enemy of Drink.
DR.. Bourillon. apart from his gem
|eral professional work, improves the
opportunity to do. some moral train
ing. He is an enemy of strong drink
and in the large. comfortable read
ing room at the asylum are placards
conspicuously posted such as "Ab-
sinthe will make you crazy" When
man drinks the familyiis compromis-
ed-when woman drinks the family
is lost. "Eau:de-Vie; Eau-do-mort'
brandy is death.)
Experience has shown that the
MANNED / at, Saint Maurice learn in
less than half the. time the trades
or professions they choose as COM
pared with others who have the nor
NAL use Of their limbs. DR.. Bouril-
Ion attributes this to their strong
will-power aroused by the obstacles
met in their changed condition.
THE great number Of manned who
are in such condition as to earn
their living only with difficulty IL
at all, raises social problem Of
the greatest Importance" said DR..
Bourillon. Evidently they should
be given all places they are able to
fill in the government or organiza-
tions over which the state has con-
troll. But 1t is doubtful II work can
be found for all who seek It. It Is
necessary to find something for them
as soon as they can begin work."

THOWS A ROCK;
 LOSES HIS RING

A personally conducted automobile tour last Tuesday night cost Charley Close. a popular entertainer, a dia- mond ring, valued at $500, or at least that is what Mr. Close will be "out" unless the gem is recovered.
 With a party of friends Mr. Close was going to Mendenhal glacier, by auto. The machine stopped on the salmon creek bridge to watch the salmon running mp stream. Mir. Close was the official guide. Some member of the party was unable to see the salmon in the water, and the host got a rock, to toss in the stream so that tho near-sighted one might be assisted in locating the salmon's course. When he tossed the rock, Mir. Diamond Ring slipped on his finger. and went into the creek. There's a three hundred dollar splash" Mir. Close remarked.

BUYERS MORE PLENTIFUL
 WHEN STOCKS ARE LOW

NEW YORK. Aug. 7.-One of the significant conditions in the business situation is that whenever stocks drop in price there are many buyers The buyers are not the class who are interested in keeping the prices up, but rather regular investors.
 Corroborating the foregoing dis patch is this from the Wall Street Journal of July 2S:
 "The market Is making good fa- miliar proposition-that every scare of the past six months, has been an opportunity to buy stocks At least such is the opinion of disinterested observers.
 And the buyer power disclosed by the sinking of the Leelanaw caused even the most enthusiastic optimists to sit up and take notice. Stop loss orders have been moved down but absorption of stocks on the resultant break was general.

MISS KENNEDY
IN AN ADDRESS
TO CIVIC CLUB
Discusses an Interesting Pub
lie Subject in Most Bril-
liant Manner.

At the Civic Club meeting which
was held yesterday afternoon in the
parish house, Miss Lulu Kennedy, the
!. Red Cross nurse who is employed by
the club. made the following excellent
address upon Our Health Situation
So efficient has Miss Kennedy's WORK
proved, and SO large the field over
which she has charge, that it has
been deemed necessary to employ a
second nurse who will assist hershere-
after. The report handed in to the
Civic Club for Februahy showed that
Miss Kennedy had mande :536 visits In
that month alone
Miss Kennedy discussed .sOur
Health Situation.'' as follows:
Health is not only desirable
thing but civic obligation, and il
progress is to be real and lasting e
must provide whatever bulwarks it
can against death, sickness. misery
and Ignorance The average. duration
i8of life is not fixed hut It has been
lproved that 1t varies with the degree
OF sanitary living. AT the present time
lin our country that average is 10
years In India it is "a years. What
| Is it in West Virginia? Well, we
hardly know The state has been so
busy developing the natural resources

for accomp lishing good. The adyan-
tage Of instituting corrective work
through democratic machinery such
as the public school is incalculabla.
The test for home conditions Is not
wealth, scholarship, dress. manners.
OF at1ona1ity but the physical condi-
ton of the school child.
We have visited the edical inspec-
tor and superintendent OF schools
here In regard to the nurse and they
| are much in favor OF it. We have!
also visited each member OF the
school board separately and they
promised to bring the matter up in
board meeting and let. Us know the
result, but we have heard nothing vet.
Perhaps we have not convinced them
/ that the Investment In the nurses
salary Would more than be madesup in
/ less than a year. Here in Clarka-
turg it costs SIS month to keep q
! Child in school. or 81 5 for the school
year. II twenty children are kept in
school and passed in their studies
Who would have failed to do SO but
| forstbe aid the school nurse had given
in keeping heads clean. in agitating
the removal of physical defects and
helping to keep the children well, the
nurses salary Of 5000 would be more
than paid for
There are many other develop
ments We might make but one thing
at time seems the best way.

& y
cially that portion Of the public which
has definitely undertaken TO improve
conditions, is certainly the basis OF
effective action.
The Civic Club is making liberal
Investment for improved health con-
lGitions, putting into the work
through their visiting nurses nearly
$4,000 last year a bout the same as
the city.
It is true more than half Of this has
been collected in fees from the Met
ropoIitan Insurance Company and
from patients, but the Civic Club is
taking the responsible ity for its ex-
penditurc and lends its moral back
ing. This is a big first step and a
necessary one for the general i'm
provement and may the club find 1t
possible to continue this service. It
means individual suffering relieved
or made easier. It means educating
the individual in personal and COM
munity health and prevention Of dis
case. The work may not show up as
we'll as clean streets or improved
sanitary condi ions might: but we are
reasonably sure of good results.
What more can we do that would
add to the efficiency Of our work in
this line? a very important work
and one we are making an effort to
bring about, Is the employing of d.
nurse in the public schools. There
