Long Work Hours Harmful
Texas Physician Shows Danger to
Telling Women.

Fort Worth, Texas, Feb. 90
President Boyd, of the State Medi-
cal Association of Texas, has is
sued signed statement on the ef-
feet of long hours on working wo-
men which could be read with pro-
fit by those who oppose organiza-
tion and legislation intended TO
remedy this evil.
Dr.. Boyd insists that women
forced to work long hours "are alb
solutely untitled, both physically
and mentally, to become meth rs,
and TO have the care and training
of future generations.
In discussing the penalty nature
exacts for violating its law that the
human body needs sufficient rest, !,
the medical man says:
This is ESPECIALLY true with re-
gard to women, owing to their Pc
culiar physical structure and the
nature of the functions which per-
tain to them as females, Physically
weaker than the male, with cor
responding lack of power to resist
fatigue and the destructive in
fuence of physical toll upon the
body tissues and nervous system,
the effect of excessive hours of toll
is much sooner apparent, and the
ultimate result much more dis
astrous than in the male.
In the case of a strong, well
developed women, the effect of the
strain incident to overwork may
not be noticeable at once. Nature s
workshop may for time be able
to temporarily repair the damage,
but the effects are cumulative.
When labor is no longer able to
meet the demands upon her to rid
the body of excessive waste matter
accumulating from overwork, and
to replace worn out material, the
breakdown is usual very rapid.
The appetite becomes poor, the di-
gestion is interferea with, consti-
patton is the rule, the person lsses
flesh, the blood is poisoned by re-
tanned waste myterial, and is i'm
poverished by lack of proper nu-
triton due to the deranged di-
gestion. The person becomes pale
and anaemic, and in most cases de-
velops an irritable, moody and des-
pondent disposition. frequently as
Stunning reckless attitude, with a
Lowering OF her moral tone. A
craving is often acquired for stimu-
lants or excitement to offset the
depression resulting from her
mental condition.
Such a person is, in common
parlance, run down, and becomes a
ready prey to disease of all kinds.
All the communicable diseases
such as tuberculosis, typhoid, scar
let fever, measles, and a host of
others, may find ready lodgment
in the system of such a subvitalized
person. This is especially true In
reference to tuberc llosis, the germs
of which are so universally distri-
buted that it is said that every per-
son comes into contact with them
many times during their lives, and
only their powers of resistance, de-
pendent upon their physical condi-
ton, prevent tuberculosis from de-
veloping in their systems.

any sign of nervousness, tried to
prove an alibi by saying that he was
in Elma and not near Gate at the
time of the crime, that the shoes had
ben given him by John Brown, a for
mer partner whom the authorities
have been unable to locate, that he
had never worn the slitted shoes
found along the trail, exhibiting his
feet to prove they were in good con-
dition, and that he knew nothing
about the crime. He tried to explain
the conflicting stories he had told
when first arrested, stories that had
been disproved when Pierce county

tigation, by saying he had rolled" a
man for IS and did not want the

WILSON'S DEFENSE

on the question of national defense,
preparatory to adopting some salts
factory program, the president, it is
pointed out, shows no departure from
the attitude assumed in his annual
address to congress in December,
1914. Last December he was trying
to minimize the influence Of agitation
in favor Of the immediate expenditure
of large sums on the army and the
navy, saying that everything needful
would be done as the occasion arose,
and that the country ought not to be
hurried into the expenditure of money
for this purpose until 1t was apparent
to everybody that the expenditure
was proper.
Address Was Popular.
In that address he gave his sup
port to a proper defense program,
and said that the administration
would keep the matter in mind. The
war had then been under way for
only four months; that it would last
q year and threaten, even indirectly,
to involve the United States, could
not be foreseen by the president, nor
by anybody else. He spoke of con-
ditions as they then existed, and it
will be recalled that his language
met with very favorable reception,
striking a general average Of public
opinion, and that congress did moth
ing to meet the demands Of those who
wanted Immediately larger defensive
measures.

meet the new situation, Just as he
tried to meet that of the year before.

This seems to be along the right line, for why should the people of Alabama have special re- quirements for those who physic their children and for those who handle their affairs in the courts and yet leave to untrained and unsxilled novices the inn portant work of training the minds and characters of their children.

PRACTICAL TEACHING

The training school is considered the heart of the normal school. It is here that the teachers in training put into practice the theories which they have learned in the classroom Jacksonville is especially fortunate in having real public school as a training school It has as critic teachers university and normal graduates who have received diplomas in supervision at the Universi- ties of Alabama. Chicago. Columbia and Peabody. These critics, Misses Edith Johnston, Louise Pelham, Caroline Smith and Mary Berry supervise with a critical and discriminating eye the practice work of the seniors. They correct their mis- takes and point the way to better pro- fessional attainments; they discuss with them methods, plans and principles so that no graduate who goes out fails to be equipped with full amount of pro fessional knowledge and enthusiasm, but the training of the prospective teacher does not cease with practice in the city training school of Jacksonville, but each senior is required to do a fixed amount of practice work in the rural schools near the normal school.
