Mrs. Minnich Adiudged INSANE.

Mrs. Ida Minnieh, divorced wife Of
Charles Minnich, former business man
of this city, was adjudged insane by
Justice of the Peace Hardy Holman
last Saturday, who acted in the place of
County Judge John B. Teal, after a
thorough examination by DR.. B. H. Nc
Gallon. Mrs. Minnich showed no radi-
cal symptoms of insanity in the ex-
animation made by Dr.. McCallon but he
gives the opinion that family troubles
causes her to be mentally depressed and
unbalanced at times. A sunstroke suf-
fered by Mrs. Minnich several years
ago is also thought to have some bear
ing upon her mental condition. The com
plant was made by her fatherinlRw,

Dallas Monthly Sales

Capital journal Special Service.)
Dallas, Ore, April 13.-At the last
meeting of the Dallas Commercial club
it was decided to discontinue the month
ly sales that have been held for the
past several months under the auspices
of the club. The attendance at the sales
at first was large but they have gradu-
ally decreased until when the last sale
was pulled off ON the 25th of last month
there were hardly enough buyers for
the articles put up for sale 1t is the
opinion of Secretary U. S. Loughary,
who has had charge of the sales that
interest in the proposition is ON the de-
cline so the club decided to abandon
the undertaking. 1t is possible that at
later date the sales may be taken up
again by either the Dallas Medchants'
association or the Polk County Farm
ers Union.

Dcs MOines, March 14.-Permanent
: state rife ranges, where citizens can
be taught by national guard officers
to handle a rife, without cost to the
citizen, are being planed by the
Iowa military department.
At present the state leases a range
for each company.
Several permanent ranges are be-
ing planned. Adoption of the plan
rests with congress, to which the
recommendations of the state have
been made.
Under the plan, any man OF mill
tary age, whether a member OF the
national guard or not, could use the
ranges. Instructors paid by the gov
eminent would furnish the rifles and
ammunition.
Adjutant Gen. Guy E. Logan con
ceived the idea that every lowan OF
military age should know how to
shoot. With proper facilities, he eX.
poets thousands of men not affiliated
with the militia to use the ranges. The
ranges are expected to cost from
81, 900 to $4,000 each and to have
between IL and Is targets.
Negotiations are now being made
for the purchase of property for
ranges at Mason City and Burlington.
Range property was recently pur-
chased at Villisca and Des Moines
and Iowa City already have perma-
nent facilities. Other properties
will be purchased as rapidly as the
state department can make >he ar
rangements.

1915 Is
Baby Year

The facts about American babies, the
needs of American babies and Ameri-
cas- responsibility to her babies viii
this year be known as never before,
because the first week in March will be
baby week throughout the country.
More than 400 communities, repre-
senting every state in the Union, are
already laying their plans for baby
week, according to the children's bu.
reau of the United States department
Of labor, in order that during those
seven days the needs of the babies
may be so presented that all the par
ents in those communities will learn
a little better how to care for their
babies and all the citizens will realize
that they have Il special obligation to
safeguard the conditions surrounding
babies. 1t is confidently believed by
those who are interested in this nation
wide baby week that the remainder
Of the year will be marked by a
strengthening of all community activi-
ties for saving babies lives and giving
them a better chance to grow to a
healthy maturity.
The baby week idea originated in
Chicago not quite two years ago. Then
New York had baby week and Pitts
burgh and other cities Such practical
benefit has in each case resulted that
the General Federation of Women's
Clubs has undertaken to promote this
nation wide observance. State health
officials and national organizations in
terested in public health and child vel
fare have taken up the plan and in
various ways are giving it not only
their sanction. but their active CO.
operation. The extension divisions of
the state universities have promised
special assistance in interesting and
helping baby week in rural communi-
ties.
Baby week will give more parents a
chance to learn the accepted principles
Of infant care and will awaken every
American to his responsibility for the
deaths of the 100000 babies who, ac-
cording to the census estimates, die
every year before they are twelve
months old.

For Contauions.


1t is important that the mother or
nurse who is attending q child i'll with
q contagious disease should take a
walk in the fresh air every day. The
best way to arrange this is for her to
keep change of clothing in the next
room. She should also bathe before
leaving the Quarantined room. If a
bathroom has been set aside for quar-
antine she can use this; if not. a screen
and basin in the sickroom will have
to answer. Then she can slip into the
next room and put on fresh clothing.
She should leave the house by the
back way preferably or. at any rate,
avoid coming in contact with any of
the occupants of the house Once in
the street she should not use the street
cars nor enter any other house and
avoid as much rs possible touching any
one.
The fumigation of q sickroom after
q contagious disease is done by the
board of health upon request in most
cities, or ii can he done by the family
under directions of the physician.

Impossible
Ideal2

Perhaps, after all, the real danger Is
not that women will ever forget the
value of the home and their obligation
to it, but that men will never entirely
learn them.
We are indebted TO that gifted and
charming essayist, Elizabeth Wood
bridge, for the following: Ito say that
1t is woman's task to make the home
is to miss its most exquisite meaning.
No one of the group can make the
home, though any one can mar it 1t
must be made by all for the uses of
all"
Well, if it is one thing for all to use
the home, it is another thing for all
and by that we mean every one under
the rooftree-to help make the home.
And we will probably never learn the
true significance of this difference ur-
less we first distinctly understand that
making home is more, far more, than
a matter Of cooking food and making
beds, of fetching and carrying and run
ming the vacuum cleaner.
There can be no quarrel with that
division Of labor which makes house
hold tasks very largely wOman's bust
ness and breadwinning outside the
home q mans business.
But after both men and women have
accomplished thus much there still re-
mains the finest part of the task of
homemaking.
1t lies in heart interest. in love for
the home as an institution and in a
thorough belief in its sacredness. A
woman once said. Il can conceive Of
such a fine Interpretation of the mean
ing and value of home that in case Of
difficulty or disagreement between two
people the very ideal of the home it.
self would outweigh the personal ele-
ment and conserve unity"
The idea that two people might be
willing to submerge personal differ
ences to the larger ideal of home itself
may be an ambitious conception, but
surely not impossible. And in this
role Of hOmemaker a man may serve
as largely and as truly as a woman.
