Brief Bits of News and Comment On
Men and Women.

Washington, District of Columbia
The cabin which was Lincoln's first
home, now standing on its original site
near Hodgensville, KY, became the 9th
er day the property of the nation. A
man who sees it, and later sees the COM
pleted great marble memorial to Lin
coin on the bank of the Potomac at
Washington, will have seen typical edi-
fees of the most symbolic career yet
known to the republic.
The one is ten logs high on side;
is plastered with soil, and has an outer
chimney of logs, sticks and mud. The
other is to cost millions; be made and
adorned by artists of distinction; and
become, next to Mt. Vernon, the home
of Washington, the most frequented OF
all American civic temples.
What enduring monuments these are
not only to Lincoln, but to the 10000
600 Black men and women and chill
dren in America-it was because of the
Emancipation Proclamation that Lin
coin will longest be remembered.

PUBLIC HEALTH PURCHASABLE

A committee of the American Asso-
citation of Labor Legislation has esti-
mated that each one of the 30,00O,OOO
wage earners in the United States annu-
ally loses nine days through sickness,
as an average. This is a total of 27O,-
600 900 days lost to production.
If only one individual could be the
goat, and were willing to gather into
his own tissues all the pain, anguish
and hardship which these figures repre-
sent, that individual would be the great
est benefaetor imaginable and would
be at the job over 100000 years.
The financial loss to the worker for
medical care in these 270,000,OOO sick
days has been put at six dollars per
capita.
The proper remedy lies not so much
in sickness insurance, for somebody has
to pay that, but in improved methods
and better conditions of living, so that
each of the 100000 may cut down
the sick days to a minimum.
This can come only through more
uniform intelligence regarding the foes
of health, more interest in the means
for fighting them and better actual prac,
tice of the laws when they are known
If the 100000 people in Chicago
would resolve to tax themselves at a
total average annual rate of one dol
lar each, for maintaining community
health through the effort of their De-
partment of Health, they would 60 a
long way toward saving the six dollars
per capita loss sustained by the wage
earning class of the community, which
is the most important part of that com
munity. This is a good business prop,
osition.
The City of Buffalo does better; il
devotes one dollar and eleven cents
per capita annually to its health con
servation. Chicago had only thirty
seven cents per capita during 1915 fol
this purpose. Is it possible that Buffalo
is more intelligent, more public-spiritec
and more progressive and up-to;datt
than Chicago with its motto, 81
