WHY 1T IS GOOD FOR
BABY TO CRY

| DAD ~ IN
1t is good for a baby to cry and
jcry violently, sometimes going into
spasms and turning "black in the
face" although this condition fright
ms the inexperienced mother The
New York Medican Journal quotes
With approval, recent articles on this
su 'ject fo''n such authorities as
"pedlatrics and the Hospital" "
The latter explains TIE benefit of
crying as follows:
'In children a great change takes
place curing crying in the manner in
which the respiration is carried on.
Respirations are prolonged at times
for as much as half minute, and
are interrupted by short respirations
During respirations the glotis is con-
tracted so that intrapulmonary pres
sure rises considerably, and there
can be little doubt that it is the
equal distributation of the increased
pressure throughout the whole of
the chest leading to dilation of por-
tions of the lung that have become
more or less collapsed. that is the ex-
planation Of the great benefit which
often results from crying, in all
cases of infantile bronchitis and of
the large discharge of bronchial mu-
Gus which often follows.
Children may become very blue
during the paroxyism. but the deep
respirations, which succeed quickly
restore the circulation to a bet
ter condition than before in conse
quence Of the larger lung space
available
This does not mean. Of course.
that whenever a baby cries it is to
be left to weep, for crying is the
only way Of expressing pain. and it
may be that pin is sticking into it.
or it has an earache Of q pain in its
Tumy. But it means that when there !
is no such exraneous reason for its
paroxyisms its weeping need not |
make mother anxious.

BY United Press.
WASHINGTON, D. G., March g.
President Wilson, it is understood, has
decided to apply his watchful waiting
policy to the present situation, grow
ing out of the controversy in regard
TO warning Americans to avoid armed
merchant ships, leaving it to congress
and the country to fight it out. He
believes that the sentiment of the
country will swing congress to his way
OF thinking about the matter.
II is reported that the president
told Chairman Flood of the house com
mittee on foreign affairs that he does
not want any compromise resolution
that would do anything short of clear
ly establishing how congress stands to,
ward himself and the present situa-
ton
TO bring about a complete under
standing the president wants congress
to vote on one resolution. such as that
OF McLemore, warning Americans not
10 travel on armed merchantmen. It
Is the desire of the chief executive
that the members of congress go on
record as to how they stand on the
policy Of the administration in regard
to armed merchant ships.
Up to noon today no decision had
been reached by the house committee
on foreign affairs as to what course
will be pursued. 1t is known that the
senate is ready to asquiesce in the
presidents wishes, but it is admitted
that there is q possibility of the
house failing to fall in line with his
suggestions

COUNTERFEIT DOLLARS
IN CIRCULATION LOCALLY

When you get a silver dollar IN
char @ in the future, it would be q
good idea to test its weight before
planting it in the cellar compartment
of your pocket book unless you care
to chance coming up one hundred cents
shy when you strike your daily bal
ance. Local banks report several
spurious silver dollars of the year 1910
in circulation in Chickasha. These dol
lars are good counterfeits, have the
''ring" and the general appearance o.
good money. but are short on weight
and close inspection will show that
the coin has been cast leaving the
edges pushed" in place of being clear
eut as would be the case had the coin
have been milled.

BEETS BEGINS
TOCOLLECT TAX

Dan Beets, commissioner Of streets.
has commenced the collection Of the
street tax for the present year. Mr.
fBeets states that payments of this
tax are coming in in a most salts
factory manner and urges that all who
are interested in seeing the streets
OF the city made the best OF any city
in Southern Oklahoma to keep up the
good work. The street tax for the
year, including the moneys paid in,
the sums worked out by team and the
amounts worked out "single-handed'
will approximate $500. This amount
judiciously expended, will go far to-
ward the upkeep and the general beau
tification of the streets, avenues and
alleys.
In speaking Of the payment of he
street tax. and in referring to the
amounts which will be paid the city in
labor. Mr.. Reets urged the necessity
of many of those who desire working
out their tax to send teams. Several
teams. Mr.. Beets claimed, could De
used advantageously at almost) any
time while the street work may be 60

education, going without the vocation
al training which they want and need.
The vocational army schools would
give every boy, whether his parents
are poor, wellto-do or rich, an equal
chance to get practical education and
at the same time fit himself TO help de-
fend his country.
The federal government would be
doing only what it now does, in fur
nishing military instruction, board and
equipment to its regular soldiers, and
at half expense, for it would not pay
salaries to the students. The states
would be doing only what they should
do, in furnishing educational facilities
for their citizens. The young men at.
tending the vocational army schools
would not be kept out OF productive
work, as tie regular soldiers are. When
the soldier goes back to civilian life,
his productive capacity is not increas.
ed, but when the graduates of the vo
cational army schools go into their
trades, occupations and professions,
their productive capacity and earning
ability will be increased many fold.
Under the vocational army school
plan, 30 GER cent Of the youths Of the
United States would become fit men to
defend their country in time of need"

TRAINING
FOR PEACE
AND WAR
BOyce Outlines Plan for Vocational Army
Schools; Scheme Endorsed by Presi-
dent Wilson in Speeches on
Western Trip

by Unlleu GreSS.
CHICAGO, March Am outline OF
how his proposed vocational army
training school plan, endorsed By
President Wilson, may be economically
efficiently ami quickly started through
ont the country, has been written by
W. D. Boyce Of the Boyce publications
In brief, Mr. Boyce suggests that a
vocational and army training school
be added to each state college under
federal aid and guidance. Concern
ing the plan, President Wilson, in his
recent western trip, said in part:
we ought to have in this country
a great system Of industrial and voca-
tional education, under federal guild
ance; and it will be perfectly feasible
and highly desirable to add to that
and combine with it such training in
Ike mechanism and use and care Of
arms, in the sanitation of the camp,
in the simpler forms of maneuver and
organization, as will make these same
raen industrially and individually serv-
iceable for national defense.
"The point about such system will
be that its emphasis will lie on the in
dustrial and civil side of life, so that
men will think first of their families
and daily work and their services II
the economic fields of the country, and
only last of all Of their serviceability
to the nation as soldiers and men at
arms. That is the ideal of America.
Mr. Boyce in part says:
"To start the army vocational
schools, all that is necessary is fo'
United States army training barracks
(for drilling and living purposest to be
added to the state colleges with a corps
of military instructors equipment, etc,
all of which can easily BIZ provided by
the federal government. All the ex
nenses of this addition must me borne
by the United States. which furnishes
board. lodging and clothing for the
Young men who take the course. The
government does this in exchange for
the students services while he is be-
ing trained to be fit soldier. The
state furnishes the instruction in the
trade. profession or occupation which
the student elects to take. He is put
Ia no expense and he remains IN tne
vocational army school two years, or
more. going to his classes like any
student in a college, but being under
regular army discipline and living IN
barracks. After his graduation ne Is
suhieot TO the call of the United
States government for military sery-
ice, but he goes into the trade pro-
fession or occupation in which he
has been instructed and in which ne
is a finished product.
