As Good AS Police Protection.

The monthly bulletin of the Indiana state
board of health reviews the operations of the
sanitary inspectors of the state for the month of
January. States and cities are beginning to
learn that health protection is as necessary as
police protection and that money spent for
health preservation is money added to the wealth
of the individual, city and state Police protec-
tion always will be needed and SO also will health
protection. summary of the work of the in
spectors reveals the following:
Of the three diaries visited one was in good
condition, one fair and one bad
Four hundred and thirty-one grocery stores
were visited during the month. Of this num-
Der were rated excellent, PAL good, TT fair 9
poor and one bad.

Killing and Manning Residents of New York

Killing and waning RESIDENTS OF New FORK
One person was killed every thirteen hours
and person injured every twenty-five minutes
tics gathered by writer for the Worlds Work.
A tragic element in the statistical review is the
number of children that were victims. The re-
view shows 900 were killed and 1886 injured.
Eighty per cent of the accidents took place dur
ing the thirteen busy hours of the day or an
average of about one every fifteen minutes. The
total number of individuals killed or injured was
%, $50.
One of the startling revelations of the in
vestigation is the comparison between the num-
Der killed in accidents and those murdered, the
count being $50 killed and 260 murdered. The
murder score averaged almost one day. In the
light of the shocking disclosures made by New
York gangsters who could be hired to kill man
for SIS, the death of $50 in street accidents paes
into insignificance.
A large proportion of accidents befell pedes-
TRANS who were crossing the street at some
place other than the regular crossing. Drivers
of vehicles are not always to blame for accidents
that bring injury and death to pedestrians, for
many of them do not look up to see if auto
mobile or wagon is approaching
Statistics on this point gathered by writer
for one of the current magazines shows that
comparatively few persons look to see if cross
ing is clear before they start to cross. Drivers
often save foohardy pedestrians from accident.
1t is a good policy to remember that streets are
intended for vehicles and that you must CO.
operate with drivers if you want to escape bruis-
es and injuries.

Where Education PAYS.

Pupils of the high school were shown in
figures just how the time they put in getting
an education pays them. F. G. Kenney, field rep
resentatve of one of Indiana's colleges told them
that the average annual earning capacity of a
man without an education is $3.50, while persons
with high school education will average at least
$1,000 year.
High school boys and girls often become
weary of studying and in disgust exclaim, An
education does not pay" They see how some
friend without high school education is earn
ing a few dollars, and hastily conclude that a
boy with more pocket money than they have is
getting the best start in life.
Mr.. Kenneys figures ought go far in con-
vincing such pupils that the boy without high
school education often is unable to compete with
the better mentally trained high school gradu-
ate and consequently will soon be outstripped.
Education is power. No boy or girl should over
look what it will buy and what it will give.

A Good Habit to Cultivate.

All good qualities beget good qualities. Elk
ercise kindness and the world will treat you
kindly; start out to bulldoze the world and you
will be kicked into the gutter. The cultivation
of forbearance is good habit to encourage. You
cannot judge the heart. No man can read an

scenes and find out what is going on in his soul
If you bear with another mans faults, you may
discover that not malice but ignorance often ac-

at least will tend to show him his weakness Ii

shows sympathy and care Show forbearance

alize the possibilities in the pro-
duction of crimson clover seed
for the market. Yields of from
four to seven bushels per acre
are common, and prices now are

we remember that it is easy to

The Short Course at Natchitoches.

Because of the progressive attitude
taken by the banks of Grant parish,
we sent more boys to the short course
in agriculture at Natchitoches than did
any other parish in the State. The
short course was held last week, Aug.
14th to 18th, and Farm Demonstration
Agent Benton was in Natchitoches on
Wednesday at which time he grouped
the Grant parish boys, counted heads
and took a photograph of them. He
found twenty-seven boys who reside in
the parish of Grant and all of them
together made good showing.
The boys were given class room in
struction in the forenoon by represen-
tatives from the State University, the
State Normal, the Progressive Farmer
and demonstration force. In the after
noon they were given concrete demon
strations on subjects discussed in the
class room. All of the beef used to
feed the boys during their course came
from steers that were used in demon
stration of stock judging, feeding and
slaughter.
This was the second annual short
course held at the State Normal, the
second time that the Bank of Colfax
has sent seven boys to the school, and
the second time that Grant parish has
had more boys present than any cther
parish in the State. AS an evidence
that the good work will go on, talk
with the boys who attended'the course,
and consider the fact that the other
banks of the parish are becoming in
terested in the short course also. The
Bank of Pollock sent a deserving boy
from their territory this year.
The following boys from Grant at
tended the course: Allen Hodnett,

The Mother Argument.
The strongest argument in

The strongest argument IN Ia
vor of woman suffrage is the
mother argument. | love my
children-as much, / think, as a
father can; but | am not in the
same class with my wife. | do
not put any father in the same
class with the mother in love for
the child. If you would know
why the mothers love for a child
is the sweetest, tenderest, most
lasting thing in the world, you
will find the explanation in the
Bible: Where your treasures
are there will your heart be also. "
The child is the treasure of the
mother; she invests her life in
her child. When the mother of
the Gracci was asked: Where
are your jewels?" she pointed to
her sons The mothers life
trembles in the balance at the
child's birth. and for years it is
the object of her constant care.
She expends upon it her nervous
force and energy; she endows it
with the wealth of her love. She
dreams of what it is to do and be
and, o, if a mothers dreams
only came true, what a different
world this world would be. The
most pathetic struggle that this
earth knows is not the struggle
between armed men upon the
battlefield; it is the struggle of a
mother to save her child when
wicked men set traps for it and
lay snares for it. And as long
as the ballot is given to those
who conspire to rob the home of
a child it is not fair-no one can
believe it fair-to tie a mothers
hands while she is trying to pro-
tect her home and save her child.
If there is such a thing as justice,
surely a mother has a just claim
to a voice in shaping the environ
ment that may determine wheth-
err her child will realize her hopes
or bring her gray hairs in sorrow
to the grave. Because God has
planted in every human heart a
sense of justice, and because the
mother argument makes an ire
sistible appeal to this universal
sense, it will finally batter down
all opposition and open woman's
pathway to the polls. VIM. j.
