A very few years ago a Medical In

4S2 detectives that have been correct

many of them would be in good health

But it is perfectly fair and reason
able to suppose that great majority
of them would still be suffering from
their defects to the great detriment

60 on, the value of this work will be
more plainly recognized and this part
of the school work will take its place
with the more important branches of
the public school system.
There is much more that could be

BRIDCETONIANS
IN auto SMASH

The Vineland Journal tells t1e story
of Bridgetonians in an auto smash-un
in this way.
Postmaster Williams almost blushed
this morning when he found that his
little automobile tumble between Bal
timore and Washington was known in
Vineland. He finally owned that there
was little mis1ap on that trip yes
terday and proceeded to tell the story
He was in Charles Stanisics' car and
had with him ex-Mayor Hampton. of
Bridgeton; U. S. Attorney Judge Wes
colt, of Camden; Postmaster Hurff. of
Bridgeton, and William Myers, of this
place. The party had been to Wash
ington on business that may appear
public later and were returning and
crossing an 50 bridge over a rail-
road when trouble occurred A far
mer on load of brewery grains was
met right on the turn and on the slope
and Mr.. Williams, who was driving
had only time to stop enough to avoid
a hard collision. AS it was The wagon
was struck and the axle of the auto
mobile slightly bent. A policeman
rushed up and could see for himself
that tae farmer was on the wrong side

by swinging across the road. No one

Mr.. Barleycorn is a decidedly bet
ter friend of capital than labor. He
gives employment compared with 9th.
er industries to much larger num-
Der of high-priced officials than to
wage-earners.
Thus 6H per cent. of all persons
employed in the malt and liouor in
dustry in America are made up of
proprietors and officials. Only 81 per
cent are wage earners.
/ find that the fellow who clothes
your foot is a much larger emplover
Of labor. Ninety-two per cent. of his
force are wage earners and only 21h
per cent. proprietors and factory Off
Gals.
Pennsylvania iron and steel makers
have 80 per cent. wage-earners and 8
per cent. of officials, and paper mills
93 per cent. wage-earners for 21h per
cent. of officials.
So you see that relatively few lab
orers are lured by Mr.. Barleycorn
while he, employs a large force of
high-salaried officials.
The liquor-making industry in
pennsylvania employs $2S, 100000 of
capital and only 2300 men.

Or ) 7-10 per cent. of the whole num-

In making the above classification
of the teeth. perhaps it is well to give
brief explanation of the same, as
there seems TO be difference of opin-
ion among medical inspectors as to
what constitutes a good, fair, or bad
teeth.
pupil that has good teeth is so classi-
fed regardless of the age of the pupil.
In CHASING pupil fair as regards
the teeth, feel that the age of the
pupil enters into the question to
great extent.
Every child must lose its baby or
first teeth, this shedding of the teeth
is one of the functions of nature and
occurs anywhere between the ages of
five and eleven or twelve years.
To class pupil as having bad teeth
therefore defective) who is passing
through this normal stage Of his de-
velopment is an injustice to the
child and to ourselves.
Therefore have placed such pupils
in the fair class which I feel is the
only correct place for them.
After a pupil has acquired his per-
manent teeth and they become dis
eased he is Of course classed in the
defective class.

MANY DEFECTS.
5 Per Cent. of Pupils Have Bad
Teeth, as Shown by Examin-
alton of DR.. Loper.
To the Board of Education,

Mr.. President and Gentlemen:
During the past month / have been
making the usual visits to the schools
of the city and find conditions to be
most satisfactory.
The reduced attendance of a month
ago has been overcome to a great ex-
tent, the attendance now being good.
4 There is practically no illness
among the pupils, and from general
appearances now we should finish out
the school year without any to speak
of.
The past year has been one of a
great amount of sickness among
teachers and pupils-while we have
] had no epidemic of the so-called acute
infectious diseases of childhood, there
has been an unusual amount of gen
eral sickness among them.
The number of contagious diseases
while small has been of a severe char
acter. Owing to these diseases it has
been necessary to disinfect several
school buildings during the year.
The issuing of health certificates to
pupils seeking working papers has
been no small part of the work of
your Medical Inspector during the
past year. 1t seems that a much lar
Eer number of pupils have applied for
fthe same this year than in any previ-
Gus year.
Having completed the physical ex-
animation of the pupils for this school
year, the following facts are learned
from the same.
During the year there was total of
2675 pupils given the required physi-
cal examination
The number of pupils examined was
divided among the schools as follows:

RELIEF WORK OF

EFFORTS TO AID BELGiANs
THREATENED BY BREAK
WITH GERMANY.


An entire diplomatic structure TO
project probably two million prisoners
in the midst of their enemies. TO care
for whole conquered nation in Bel
GUM. TO represent the interests of four
sovereign states in Germany and Ger
man interests in nine enemy countries,
crumbled when diplomatic relations
between Germany and the United
States We're severed.
One of the most complex. ultra legal
humanitarian machines ever evolved.
the slow. patient work built up during
two and half years of effort, thus is
sacrificed
American organization and genius
and American means of restraint in
the war zones will cease to operate.
All American Representatives will be
withdrawn from Germany and the du-
unframed forces.
From Belgium the United States will
not withdraw till it is impossible for
her TO continue. The 100 Americans
who have from the wars beginning
proved the directing genius for the
greatest and longest sustained relief
work in history will remain at their
posts unless they are forced to cross
the frontier.
Belgian relief ships will continue TO
run for the present, it is understood,
and every attempt made TO secure their
immunity from German attack.
Prisoners Lose Protectors.
AS to prisoners the United States
represents the interests of at least
100000 and probably 100000 men
in countries from which the withdraw
al of American diplomats has been
forced. Often it has been only such
officials who have stood between these
helpless unfortunates, unbefriended
in the midst of an enemy country, and
threatened with reprisals, intolerable
even epidemics of disease. American
officials have been untiring in their eff
forts under conditions almost intoler-
ably difficult
Germany'S interests in seven coun-
tries and the large sections of Egypt
and Morocco have been turned away
from American sympathy and aid to
whatever neutral Germany can find
to accept work The state depart
ment instructed its officials represent
ing German interests in England,
France, Russia and Japan, Roumania,
Serbia, Greece, Egypt and Morocco to
suspend all activities along that line
and await information to be conveyed
through some neutral government to
whom Germany wishes those interests
surrendered.

EXCELLENT RETURNS
FROM THE CANADIAN
WHEAT CROP
United States Settlers Becoming
Rich on Western Canada
Lands.

The large number of United States
settlers coming to the Western prov
inces of Canada are easily explained
by the case of Mr.. G. Lacy, late of
Wisconsin and later of Alberta.
Mr.. Lacy came to Canada from Wis
consin in the summer of 1914 with
$500 available cash in his possession.
He rented a half-section of partly i'm
proved land in Alberta and commenced
summer following. He broke 800 acres
with oats, 90 with barley, and go with
wheat. Also he had two cows and 20
head of young live stock. He was for
tunate In buying feed at bargain and
managed TO rent the adjoining quarter
section as pasture.
A few weeks ago he decided TO real
ize his profits-and they amounted to
$4,000 absolutely clear from the crop
and the stock.
w. J. Winstead, of Brooks, Alberta,
says:
II landed in Brooks, March 18th,
1916, with one car of household effects,
and nine head of good horses, and less
than $500 in cash. l have put $1,000
worth of improvements on my farm. 1
have 81 head of cattle, 16 head of
horses, debts all paid, new automo-
bile, and good, stiff bank account.
At present prices, l can cash in for
$4,000. / am we'll satisfied, and ex-
pect to double this next year.
/ have threshed altogether 1000
bushels of No. Northern wheat from
two hundred acres, which went from
"a to 56 bushels per acre.
Seven thousand bushels of wheat, all
No. l Northern, two thousand bushels
of oats, 670 bushels of fax. 700 BUSH

we'll, figure this out for yourself at the
market price. 1 sold 300 bushels of
wheat at S1.74B, am holding the re-
mainder for $500. Also all the oats,
barley and flax for higher prices"
Intelligent farming pays always ac-
cording TO Alex. Waite, prosperous
farmer. Some figures to prove his con-
tention that he has made good"
In 1914 Mr.. Waite threshed 40 BUSH
els to the acre from a 30-acre crop.
This sold for $1.60A per bushel, which,
after deducting seed, labor, Irvine,
threshing and freight, left clear profit
of $50 per acre, or total of $1,000.

sold, he received after freight had been

RECOGNIZED WORK OF BIRDS
Occasion When Growers of Grain Re.
sponded to Appeal to Save Their
Friends From determination.

Three hundred million dollars
worth of the cotton crop was damaged
by the cotton boil weevil in the last
year and birds, especially quail, con-
slider such fare treat and have a
fondness for Kidding the farmer of
the enemies of his crops. What the
good birds do in the destruction of in
sects injurious TO mans interests is
little short of marvellous.
Ose year at the headquarters Of the
National Audubon society a wire came
stating: Birds are dying in Kansas,
Nebraska and Missouri in great num-
berS-result of sleet and snow" In
response to the wire 5000 worth of
grain, seed and chaff was distributed,
together with grit, to the birds and
saved many of the insectivorous birds
and game birds. The postmaster gen
eral ordered the rural mail carriers
to distribute the feed free of charge.

Sunk by Iceberqs.

Admittedly the worst danger menac-
Ing transatlantic travellers in modern
days, with steamers of such speed as
are plying on the Atlantic is that of
collision with icebergs in dense fog.
1t is morally certain that the mystic
rious disappearance of big steamers
like the Naronic and the Huronian
In more recent years and of many
others previously, is attributable to
this cause. for no other agency is pow
erful enough to work the ruin of a
modern liner with her cellular bottom
and watertight bulkheads.

DIPLOMATIC BREAKS NOT
ALWAYS FOLLOWED BY WAR.

The breaking of diplomatic relations
between two countries has not always
been followed by war. 1t is recognized
always as a preliminary step toward
war, but there have been cases where
war has not followed or where it has
been postponed for many months after
diplomatic ties were severed.
In May, 1915, Italy declared war on
Austria Hungary. simultaneously the
German ambassador TO Rome, Prince
Buelow, was forced TO leave Italy, TAX
ing with him all German diplomatic
and consular officers. At the same mo-
ment the Italian ambassador TO Berlin
was handed his passports. The break
between the two countries was COM
plete from the diplomatic standpoint.
= But though war was hotly waged be-
tween Italy and Germany's ally, there
was no actual declaration of war
against Germany until more than a
year later.
Twice the United States has more
or less summarily dismissed British
ministers to Washington.
In 1909 Minister Jackson was hand
ed his passports as the result of what
were practically charges of falsehood
and duplicity made by him against the
American secretary Of state. That
was, of course, preliminary TO the war
of 1912, but war did not begin until
three years later.
Lord Sackville-West. British minis
ter to the United States. was dismissed
by the Washington government in
1888, because of personal letters he
had been trapped into writing which
were regarded as unwarranted inter,
ference with domestic politics. In this
instance the American minister was
not recalled, nor was he handed his
passports, and no declaration Of wal
followed the incident.
When the Emperor Macmillan was
executed i'm Mexico In 1867 his brother
Emperor Francis Joseph, withdrew all
his diplomatic and consular officers
i. from Mexico. Diplomatic relations
were not resumed for more than thirty
years. But during all that time Aus
TRAN subjects lived in peace in Mexico
and were not molested by the Mexican
government. The fact that the Aus
trian forces withdrew from Mexico un
der strong pressure from the United
States is to be considered as a control
ling cause for Francis Joseph content
ing himself with making only a diplo
matte protest.

Ready to Supply Own Needs.

The figures are suggestive Of what
has taken place in other industries
which could not be so closely iden-
tilted with the actual movement of the
troops. The fact that five times as
many railway cars have been shipped
abroad had, for example, no distant
relation; that cotton manufacturers
nearly trebled, that wool manufacttF-
ers quadrupled. that leather far more
than doubled. that steel manufactures
as whole rose from S1S4,OO00o0 TO
SIT 600, o00-all these show what the
war has done TO put this country in
a position to supply its own needs
should they arise.
