DENOUNCES PARENTS WHO
ROB CHILDREN OF SLEEP
BY SAMUEL G. DIXON, NJ. d.
(Pa. Commissioners of Healthy

The present habit of turning night
into day in our highly Illuminated
towns with all sorts of exciting enter
tAnments keeps the nerves keyed high
and upsets the equilibrium.
Children especially are apt to suffer
from late hours. For the first two
years of life. eating and sleeping are
the two great essentials.
Babies should sleep from fifteen to
twenty hours out of the twenty-four
and older children from ten to four
teen hours 1t is not an unusual thing
to see babies in arms or very young
children being carried about until
their parents bedtime. This is in
furious to the children and cannot be
made up by additional rest the next
day.
Eight O'Clock Bedtime.
Permitting children to remain up
late is a strain on their nervous system
which, while it may no. De Immediate
ly apparent, is bound to exert dctri-
mental influence in the long run.
Oftentimes the i'll effects arc perfectly
apparent to the Intelligent observer
1rritableness and any of the train
of evils which result from an over
taxed nervous system may result from
continually robbiEg the child of sleep.
regular bedtime should be set for
cnllQren ACCORDING 10 tne1r age, rang
ing from 6 o'clock for babies to S
for children of or 9. and this should
be regularly adhered to. This is
matter of the utmost Importance IN
establishing a sturdy constitution in
childhood.
With adults. irregularity and short
hours of sleep are often q factor which
predisposes to ill health. Occasional
ly one will find an individual who has
an unusual capacity for work with less
than the ordinary amount of rest
but for the ordinary man or woman
this would end disa strouslY.

ry False, Declares London.

London, July 27.-A British Off
cial statement was issued today de-
nying the Turkish official report of
July 26 that British cavalry forces in
the vicinity of the Suez canal had been
dispersed. The statement follows:
The commander-in-chief in Egypt
reported: 1t is stated by the German
wireless that our cavalry has been
driven back at Romani and Katia- Our
cavalry is in occupation of Katia and
nowhere has been driven back. Com
plete superiority over the enemy has
been established by it both in pushing
in "Reminiscences and driving IN his
scouting parties at will.
The enemy has not even ventur-
ed to press any reconnaissance in our
direction. The Turkish force at
Oghratina dare not advance from that
place and no Turk has been near
Romani.'"

ferred to, said:

FEAR A CAR SHORTAGE
Public Utilities Commission Hears of
Kansas Danger.

Danger of another car shortage in
the wheat and corn producing counties
of the state has been reported to the
public utilities commission. AS a re-
suit of the situation. it is probable all
railroads will at once be notified to
prepare to meet shipping conditions
in this state.
Traffic congestion on eastern lnes
is largely responsible for conditions at
this time, according to reports sent
to the commission. Several roads
have reported ar inability to obtain
the return Of cars from eastern roads.
owing to the trouble in handling ax-
ports. Efforts are being made, how
ever, to obtain a sufficient return of
cars to western lines to care for the
fall grain shipments
