THEIR HEART IN THEIR WORK
Engineers and Mechanics Alike suf.
fered When Great Bridge Over ST.
Lawrence River Collapsed.

When the great steel span of the
Quebec bridge buckled and fell into
the st. Lawrence river 81 cry Of an
guish went up from the engineers who
had planned the bridge, and they put
thei.. faces into their hands and wept,"
says the Toronto Globe In its account
of the disaster. "They saw their care-
fully thought-out plans, on which they
had placed their professional reputa-
tons, suddenly ruthlessly thwarted
and tumbled to ruin. 1t was as II
/ they had lost great friend. They
had lived with this span. They had
pride in this work Of their brains and
hands, and it melted into the river
and sank in IN instant, never to be
recovered"
The same paper tells Of how the
hundreds of men who had worked on
tho bridge for months and years were
''plunged into the deepest gloom. The
bridge was dear to them, and they sat
on the bank and looked ut the spot in
the river where the bridge had gone
down."
Each workman who Is worth his salt
is proud Of his work and Of the struc-
turc that rises from the labor Of his
mind and hand, whether 1t be car, a
boat, house, mighty bridge, poem
or field of corn. The laborer who
has not this feeling of pride in achieve
ment is not u good workman.

The head-hunting Igorotes of Luzon,

great Island of Borneo are SO given to
the practice that, so far, nothing has
been able to make them give 1t up, and
villages will make war on each other
for the express purpose of getting
heads with which to decorate their
houses.
In Java and Sumatra, also, there are
tribes of head-hunters, who carry on
Their savage warfare continually.

heads than for any other reason.
In the iittle-known regions Of east.

NOT MERE MEDICAL PROBLEM
Foundation on Broad Municipal
Policy, 10 Assertion.

The protection Of public health II
more than mere medical problem,
DR.. W.. G. Rucker, assistant surgeon
general, United States public health
service, told the American Public
Health association.
Community health cannot be called
'purchaseable," he said. 1T must rest
on cooperation and a broad municipal
policy.
"a public health program for cities
is in reality nothing more or less than
II complete plan for communal exist
ence," said Doctor Rucker.
UNFORTUNATELY, health has been con-
sidered In the past solely us med
ical problem and the pendulum has
been enthusiastically swung SO fur
that health is almost regarded us an
artificial state to be achieved and
maintained solely through the inter-
position Of medical safeguards. Elk
pert knowledge of disease Is absolute
~ necessary for the work Of health
department, but cannot be the founda.
ton of broad municipal health pol.
icy. Public health is something more
than mere absence of disease. 1t is
the physiological functlOnation Of the
community.
1.-THE kcyword in this public health
policy is cooperation = cooperation
having as its basis the full recognition
Of the fact that in It's last analysis the
health problem is IN economic problem
and as such cannot be solved without
careful consideration Of the economics
of the community"

Blind Soldiers Of France.

There are actually some five thou
sand blind in France as a result Of the
war, most of them blinded by gases or
the sheets of flame vomited by the
German "flammenwerfer," of which ex-
tensive use was made ut Verdun. I
have been told that an entire French
company, their clothes afiame, run to
attack the incendiaries, and, grasping
them in fiery embrace, burned to
death with their foes. 1t is around
the blind soldiers that the pre:tiest
and most tender nurses crowd.
