While so much criticism is directed to.

should be stated in an effort to preserve
fidelity to truth that the story of a
German submarine using the American
bark Normandy as a screen in an attack
On a Russian vessel was made up out of
whole cloth, there being nothing Of the
kind, as we have it from the captain Of
the Normandy and communicated by him
to the American consul at Liverpool.
Enough of the actual fact is already i'm
ruted to the German sea methods so that
fiction should not be piled upon fiction.

II is reported that an instructor at
the summer session rode a motorcycle to
Lake Dunmore and back, Is miles, in
something like 81 minutes. If there is
no law to prevent such misuse of YER
mont highways, there ought TO be, and
the eyclist aforesaid, should be made to
suffer under it. If there is such a law,
ii doubtless makes no exception in favor
of college instructor or student, and
the officers of the law should show no
rartiality.-Middlebury Register.
The above is from a newspaper which
formerly attacked anything in the line
of motor propelled vehicles, chiefly the
utomobile--attacked them without rea-
son, too. Latterly the Middlebury con
temporary has adopted more friendly
attitude toward the automobile, and its
policy now seems to be to let those We
hicles have their share of the public high
ways, which puts it in line with all the
other newspapers of the state. And, in
protesting against the misuse of the
highways by the motorcyclist referred to,
the contemporary will also find the press
OF the state strongly on its side. A speed
mile minute is altogeth-
or too fast for any road in Vermont, even
the widest and most improved thorough |
fare. But many drivers of motorcycles
are abusing their rights to the highways
and abusing them shamefully and with
very little restraint in individual cases.
While we are making the highways rea.
sonably safe as regards the use of the
automobile, we ought to pay equal at.

Of perfection. He frequently fails in this
because he forgets that although after a
lawn is moved. the cut grass should
sometimes be left as manure. however,
this is a bad plan TO follow If there are
noxious weeds mixed In with the grass.
The seeds Of the weeds ripen so quickly
that they are produced even between one
moving and another, and are thus dis
ltributed all over the lawn. Then the
trouble begins. To apply sslt 20 the
heads Of weeds. or 10 cut them of with
spud, are both equally Intellectual The
only efficient method Of dealing with
them being 10 uproot them and then give
the lawn q dressing Of rich soil free
from weeds, and after this 10 apply a
little bone meal and well -rotted manure.

BETTER BABIES AND
MORE OF THEM

Some people are disposed to make
fun of the better babies movement
which is just now a live matter all
over this country, being given en-
phas.s by baby shows. The business
is said to be a fad which will soon
lose its interest and will have ac-
complished no good purpose.
This writer can not agree with
that view. The need for such a
movement is made manifest by the
fact that 10000 babies die an
nually in this country because they
are born of defective parents or do
not have proper care. The fact
that they are not given proper care
is due to lack of proper training
on the part of their mothers. The
Effect of the movement will be to
cause many mothers to study child
W flare problems, thus learning
how better to safeguard the lives
of their babies
Women just dote on babies, and
1t is fortunate for the race that
they do. Their creator made them
so, by planting in their hearts that
most wonderful sentiment which
we denominate mother love. Moth
er love does not need to be cult
waited and enlarged Every woman
has it in full measure. But instruc-
ton in mother knowledge is nee
essary, that the mother may do the
ght and proper thing in giving
expression to her Astounding moth
er love. Fathers might take heed
and help the mothers more than
they do in the up-bringing of the
children.
Prize babies can be produced on
'ly under prize winning conditions,

SOMETHING ABOUT
YOUR APPENDIX
Continued.

Most medical writer's agree that
constipation is one cause of appen-
dicitis. The accumulation of focal
matter in the appendicial region,
as we pointed out, does cause an
irritation of that organ. However,
the same habits of eating which
bring about appendicitis, cause con-
stipation. Also, oathartics cause an
added irritation, and are one of
the minor causes of appendicitis
This is especially true of cascara,
and lazatives containing it, The
writer has seen several cases of
chronic appendicitis, in which the
pain and symptoms disappeared on
leaving off the drug.
AS with most diseases, germs are
said by medical writer's to !, be the
cause of appendicitis, and the Col
on Bacillis is said to be the germ
usually found in the diseased or
gan. However, we maintain that, as
in other germ diseases, there must
be some cause which precedes the
germ. Germs can not attack healthy
| tissues; in order for a germ dis
ease to become established the It's
sues must be weakened and their
normal disease-resisting power low
cred. The Colon Bacillis lives nor
mally in the colon, or large bowel,
i 1ryb h
really the cause of appendicitis
everyone would have the disease.
But the germ remains harmless
until fermenting and decomposing
food brings the appendix and the
surrounding area into condition
in which the germ can successfully
attack it.
Other germs are said frequently
to cause appendicitis especially
tile germ of influenza, of inflamma-
toy rheumatism, and tonsilitis. The
same habits of living which permit
any of these germs to attack the
body, will lower the resistance OF
the Intestinal tract, and especially
of the appendix, and permit that
organ TO be invaded by whatever
germ is present in the body. The
old idea that seeds or other accumu
lations in the appendix cause this
disease has been exploded. Injury
to the appendix is also a rare
cause. Appendicitis is a food in
duced disease; wrong eating lowers
the germ resisting power of the
bowel and keeps it in condition in
which any unusual indiscretion, OF
anything which lowers the body's
resistance will p.ecipitate an at.
tack
