Stronger Economic Orders.
Alexander Dana Moves, in seribner Maaazine.

Politically and economically. what we correctly enough describe
as the 'transition period" is necessarily obscure in it's trend and
tendencies. its own phenomena contradictory and not always easy to
interpret. and with the exact conditions to which it is leading Europe
and the world at large very much a matter of conjecture. At such a
stage of political and economic reconstruction it is always difficult to
avoid the converglng OF attention on the difficulties which arise and
the obstacles. often unexpected, which are encountered. Comparison
OF the existing situation with what it might have been and what pre-
dchon had declared it would be grows less easy as the immediate
perpleX1tlcs have to be confronted. When the question has yet to be
settled not only of political relations, but of national currencies. OF
national debts, and of international trade, and when. in at least a CON
siderable part OF the world, the whole problem of the relationship of
labor to capital is being rcconsidered, a sense of cropping in the dark
lis natural.
Nevertheless, in the world as we know it maintenance of orderly
progress, whether in politics or industry, is so absolutely essential to
the preservation Of human happiness and security, that such a period
can be only brief. Within a very short time n may be sure that
events will be moving In a common direction to the new basis of per
manent stability: The highly reassurng fact of the present situation
is that the world is taking up it's task of readjuNment neither in the
spirit OF 1868, when perpetuation of some of the most dangerous war
time economic e~xpedients was demanded because it was not con:
venient to dispense with them, nor in that of 1915, when outright
political reactonism had the right of way.
The purpose OF establishing a stronger and sounder political ss-
TEN, which is governing the deliberations of the Paris peace confer
ence, is only another aspect of the purpose which equally inspires the
guiding minds in finance and industry-to zee to it not only that tho
abnormal economic conditions of war time arc removed as soon as may
be possible, but that, along with the removal of them, the weaknesses
or abuses OF the old economic order shall be remedied.

VACCINE HAS MADE GOOD.

~accinatio has made good in this
war. The man who still ppose 1t in
the light of the experiences that have
accumulated is either crazy. Il foo. or
Il knave. For about four years almost
100000 men were protected against
certain diseases by vaccination. For
the first time in history smallpox and
typhoid ever have not hampered the
plans of the fighting men. The re-
suits of al experiment involving 90
O00, 900 men and lasting o years
cannot be set aside because of the howl
of some lily balanced, long haired
crank or some sect who make their
living out of human ills.
The very fact that the armies OF the
world have been freer from smallpox
than the civilian population in my
state in the union is Il reason for call
ing attention to the fact that there
have been a few cases among we'll
~vaccinated people. The facts are
available for any one wishing them.
The Journal OF the American Med
ical Association recently reported an
epidemic in which there were a few
cases. The explanation given was that
the infection. instead of being OF the
mild type prevalent in this country
for 20 years. was severe, n he dose
of poison received by the sick was
massive.
Probably those OF us more frequently
subjected to smallpox should follow
the example of attendants mt smallpox
hospitals and get vaccinated once j
year or whereabouts.
The same journal has recently re-
ported two small cpidemics Of typhoid
fever. In the first epidemic there were
So cases. five Of which were fatal. The
probability seemed to be that this
group of soldiers received massive do
sases of typhoid bacilli while bathing
in a polluted AXE All of the men had
been vaccinated against typhoid fever
within n AL
In the second epidemic there were
10 cases. ALI had been vaccinated
within a year. The most probable
source OF infection was food purchased
in outside restaurants, aud especially
ice cream bought in outside ice cream
parlors.
Several years ago there was consid-
cradle discussion between officials of
the California state board OF health
and officials Of the United States army
an to why California had more cases
Of typhoid fever among those a C
cinated against the disease than they
huil in the army. The7 army people
contended that it was because Of the
superiority Of the rnly vaccine. Tho
California people commended that their
vaccans was all right but that no vac.

War Tools for Trade Schools.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

If what is known as the Caldwell bill should be passed by con-
gress, the result would be such a stimulus to vocational and trade
training a we have never known in this country.
The government has accumulated something like $loOOO0,OOo
worth Of tools and machinery in it's rush to produce munitions and
materials. Now that there is no further use for most of this stock
it would naturally he strapped or thrown on the market for whatever
it would bring. The Caldwell bill provides that instead the tools be
used for training workers, particularly crippled soldiers home from
the war. and to replace equipment which in some cases colleges have
worn out in their rush of war work.
DIR: David Snedaen, president of the National Society for voca-
tlonal Education, is supporting the Caldwell bill. on the ground that it
would make possible the training of a considerable number of trade
workers for whose education there has been no provision heretofore.
He is joined by manufacturers of machinery. who say that if the stock
is sold 1T will bring the government little. The most lasting effect of
the bill. however. would come from putting the congress of the United
States definitely behind vocational training. Heretofore the advo-
Gates of that form OF education have been enthusiasts, trying in vain
outside the doors of boards of education whose members were salts
fled with the old academic type of school training. Since the war
the demand for a practical education has been growing. and this ma
cllnery, of little value for any other purpose, would do something to
meet that demand.

From the Scientific American.

From the Scientific American.
The reputation Of being the rainiest
place in the world has long been enjoyed
by the hill station. Cherra Punt. or the
slope Of the Himalaya. in Assam. with a
mean rainfall hat has been %variously
stated, according to the length of the rec
ord and the particular rain gauge IN
question.
The latest official value. based on a 40
year record at the Cherra Punt police
station. is 426 inches a year. Blanford. the
widely known authority on Indian meteor
ology. thought that the mean in some
places at Cherra Punjj exceeded 500 inches.
but nowhere amounted to 600 inches.
So far as actual records go. the rainfall
at the Indian station is surpassed by that
recently reported by d. H. Campbell. Of
Stanford University. as having been meas
ured at Waialee, in the Island Of Kauai.
Hawaii. though the record covers only
five years and the mean might be reduced
by a longer period of observation.
In 19l2-1916. inclusive, the Hawaiian sta

more than 43 feet.

strong enough to withstand a heavy
dosage of bacilli. For instance, if a
ma drank badly polluted water. as
mountain stream water sometimes Is.
or ate Ice cream filled with typhoid
he would so down. regardless Of the
type OF vaccine used to vaccinate him.
The experiences quoted seem to provo
that the California people knew what
they were talking about.
The reporters who tell of the little
epidemic at Camp Greene last year
say that even though men are vac
cinated against typhoid. they must not
be careless about their food and drink.
They say care should be taken that
cooks n food handlers are not
changed without examination for EAR
riers OF typhoid. Persons who apply for
jobs as cooks and walters should be
questioned as to whether they have
ever had typhoid or n illness like
typhoid. Those h give such a his

Concerning Hats.

From tho Philadelphia Inquirer.
Once in a while we do seem to come
across something which ancient people
did not possess. Hats. apparently, figure
among this number.
Fol hats. we are told, did not become
a we'll established custom until some 500
years ago. In the year 1449. when Charles
II entered Rouen after its %recapture by
the French from the English. the people
there had never before set eyes upon q
hat.
Their amazement therefore can be pic
tured as they gazed upon their king rid
ing past them in po,np, and on his head
a gorgeous hat lined with vari-colored
SILK and gayly bedecked with huge plumes.
OF course everyone followed his exam
pie. Hats began to make their appear
ance in shop windows. and women ard
men alike labored over the constructor,
of elaborate headpieces, Zach one at
tempting to surpass his neighbor II pos
sible. But theyt We're expensive. and 1t
wa a long time before they could be worn
except by the prosperous classes.
In the course of time. however. they
became a more commonplace thing and
people of all classes were able to afford
them.

Tho Disappearing Dollar.

A brief dispatch from Philadelphia re-
Gently told of perspirins employees in the
mint in that city shoveling silver dollars
Into the fire. preparatory to transform
ing them into bullion. The coins were,
we doubt not. shove}ed into crucibles. as
a certain element of waste would attach
to melting them in an open fire.
What interests US most is not the man
ner in which these dollars are being melt
ed. but the fact that they are disappear

west has been divorced from the silver
