The tourist is hopeful biped whose

A few years ago tourists were few

to the expert but widely-busted tramp
printer, who remained in town long
enough to become thoroughly picked
and then toured to the next stop on the
brake rod of poultry car. With the
up,springing Of the automobile, how
ever, our roads are deeply lined with a
new kind of tourist, who travel among
strangers and pay the list price for red
inner tubes.
Since it has been discovered that the
modern automobile can be run several
thousand miles without any more ex.
pense than operating a short-line rail
road, the practise Of skipping from

es the liability of error and is an i'm
portant causative factor of accidents y
Not only is the report interesting in
itself but it is also significant of the
growing appreciation of the wisdom OF
including our human resources in the
field of conservation. A man in health
may not always be an asset to his com
munity, but out of health he is pretty
sure to be a liability. And when the
cases of illness run into the millions
they represent a very heavy loss to the
country as whole, to say nothing Of
the losses of individual sufferers. I'm
proving health is saving money. 1t i

Loren Myott, 20, Sustains Fractured
Ribs When Auto Is Smashed

ENOSBURG FALLS, Sept. %. -
Loren Myott was badly injured, when
his automobile was struck by the ex-
press train from Richford at the cross
ing near the creamery. Some freight
ears on the siding hid the train from
Mr.. Myott s view as he approached the
c.ossing from the north When he did
see it he slowed his machine which was
on the track and was struck near the
middle, and the car, new one, was
badly wrecked. Mr.. Myott was thrown
some distance and was rendered uncon-
scious. After being removed to his
home nearby an examination by the
| physician showed three ribs broken and
bruises. Mr.. Myott is nearly 70 years
OF age and not strong, so the shock is a
! severe one for him.

One thing about long automobile
tour is that the tourist gets a chance
to meet great many nice people and
learns how the government regulates
the price of gasoline We have one Of
the freest forms of government in the
world, and when gasoline gets too high
in one place all a man has to do is to
drive on to some point where it IS a
few cents higher. This tends to keep
the tourist in an amiable and contented
frame of mind, and also encourages
the building of stone front garages

HEALTH AS AN ASSET.

1.-The average loss of time due to i'll
ness among approximately 100000
workers in the United States is nine
days a year. If medical attention be
estimated at one dollar a day, and earn
ings at two dollars a day, this loss
amounts to nearly $Ss0,000,00O annu-
ally This is the statement of Surgeon
j. A. Watkins of the public health ser
vice, who has been assigned to the task
Of cooperating with the bureau of
mines mvits efforts to reduce accidents
among workers and improve general
health conditions among them. The
original field of the bureau has been
widened to include the steel industry
but a report it has just issued, while
bearing especially upon the welfare of
men in the steel mills, contains advice
of general application.
Surgeon Watkins argues thus: "The
statement that man whose health is
below par has working efficiency be-
low par should need no explanation
Efficiency of the workman is a subject
no operator can afford to ignore, for,
after all, industrial efficiency depends
on the man behind the machine. Aside
then from its humanitarian aspects,
the prevention of conditions produc-
tive of i'll health is a plain business
proposition. Health is the working
man s capital, his stock in trade.
Without health his earning capacity is
limited, and those dependent on him
suffer as we'll as he. The workingman
has a right to demand that he be not
required to work beside mel who are
| diseased or mentally deranged. All
! candidates for employment and all men
/ already employed should be examined
in order that those physically or men.
tally defective may be detected and
/ given medical attention. Moreover, a
1 system of medical supervision is leces
sary in order to prevent the introduc
tion and spread of infectious or contag
ious diseases. Experienced, hardwork
ing, and valuable employees may not bt
working at their full capacity because
of some defect of which they are una
ware. Should such conditions be
brought to light and remedied, these
men will be restored to full efficiency
Again, . progressive disease may be af
fecting a person, so that his working
period is being rapidly shortened. Will
a system of physical examination hi
condition is discovered, treatment il
instituted at an earlier date, and relief
made more certain. 3"
Among his recommendations ar,
these: That physicians of industria
plants should be whole-times employees
giving all their attention to the work
which should include medical examina
! tion and supervision of the health 0
the working force; systematic improve
J mcnt in personal hygiene; and precau
tions against fatigue. In regard to tn
last mentioned he says:
Undue fatigue is one of the mos
common causes of oecupational disabi
ity: it lowers the vitality of the ind
: vidual and thereby increases his su,
4 ceptibility to the hazards of his oecl
patton and to disease in general. f;
tigue is also of direct practical impoI
taace. 1t lengthens the time necessar
for the worker to perform a give
amount Of work, thereby decreasin
the amount of work performed in

The capture by the British of the last
German port in Africa brings nearly to
an end the final chapter, for the present,
at least. of the story of the German col
onies in the dark continent There was
an immense area there under the German
flag when the war broke out, but the EN-
pire has had no possible way of reinforc-
ing the troops in that distant field This
Is one of the inevitable consequences oil
the British control of the ocean and il
is likely to have a tremendous effect on
the political organization of the world
| With these immense areas in British
hands, with Germany cut off entirely
from its former and its desired colonia
power, the apportionment of the surfac,
of the earth among the civilized powers
will be vastly different from what i
would have been had there been no war
Here is another illustration of Germany
enormous loss by her supreme folly.
